THE CENTRE REPORTER. FRED KURTZ, . . . Editor Cextre Hany, PA, Aug. 2, 1883, SOME OF THE BARGAINS IN 1880. Ex-Senator Stephen W. Dorsey is not yet satisfied with the present adminis- tration for its course in forcing him to a trial in the Star Route cases, and he ig telling more of the bargains that were made in 1880, The New York Sun of the 16th contained a lengthy statement obtained from Dorsey giving a few of the troubles of Garfield in the late Pres idential campaign, After telling of Gar- Gold's meeting with thie wealthy New Yorkers of Fifth avenue and bargaining if they wonld farnish a large campaign find to give them the appointment of jacretary of the Treasury, and also agree- 7 in writing to give a syndicate that {liese men might name the refunding o' the government fives and sixes, which yald have allowed a very profitable Dorsey goes on and tells carried in October, mmission, iow Indiana was 1950, as follows: “It really seems as though the party core now getting ready to fight a battle. Thera had been some doubt about that hofore, Within a week after the Filth avenue conference, Wall street had sub scribed a very large amount of money not far from a half a million dollars. At the same time began that remarkable, aud, at the time, unexplained zeal which the old Stalwart leaders suddenly took in the Republican canvass. Grant, Conk- ling, Don Cameron took hold, and the political temperature sprang from zero to fever heat. These three leaders made their memorable visit to Garfield at Mentor, and Grant and Conkling took the stump. In constant communication with Garfield, Dorsey began to organize for an October victory in Indiana. The eye of the public being distracted by the splurging and hurrah-boys styles of campaigning that followed the Fifth av- enue conference, Dorsey had abundant opportunity to put into operation, with- out being detected, the plan of campaign- i ndiana that afterwards won the battle, and which brought from Garfield those expressions of thanks and gratefu) acknowledgements which Dorsey now has in his possession. Dorsey's plan involved the most thor- ouzh canvass of the state of Indiana that had been made since the vigorous days 0, P, Morton, Every voter was enrolled and the first canvass showed that the State was hopelessly Democratic. Of the purely strategic and organizing part of of the work it is not necessary to speak, except to say that it won for Dorsey the loudest praises from those who knew what he had done, and caused Garfield to speak of him as a “prodigy of political ability,” In the later part of September, afier Dorsey's organization had been perfect ed, after every voter had been placed, and the influences that could be brought to bear on each voter had been thoroongh- ly learned a special messenger left New York for Indianapolis. He had with him over four hundred thousand dollars, either in cash or in convertable paper. This money had all been raised ip New York, and principally by the efforts of Levi P. Morton. Dorsey never touch- ed a penny of the money, though urged to see its distribution personally, He was there not only to see to it that his plan of organization was followed to the letter, but also to prevent, so far as pos- sible, any of the money from sticking in the pockets of men who were trusted to distribute it. When the money reached the local committees it was found jto be largely in crisp, new $2 bills, It is be- lieved that Mr John C., New could tell how bills and drafts of large denomina- tion were converted into these small bills, At all events there they were, They were distributed through the State just as ballots were, in great bunches. The destination of each was perfectly well known, and by noon of the election day they had fallen like snowflakes si- lently all over the state, although more in some parts than in others, Then came the count of polls in the evening. The $2 bills and the $432,000, combined with Dorsey's plan of organi- zation, had won, The Democratic party was snowed under by greenbacks, and a great hurrah went up all over the land among Republicans that the principles of the party had trinmphed in Indiana. The Fifth Avenue Hotel conference was a success, and Dorsey was admired and congratulated, Garfield, Arthur, James MacVaegh and other Republican leaders knew at the time what had been done and all vied in doing Dorsey honor. oie A i —— DISASTROUS CYCLONE IN SOUTH» ERN MINNESOTA, THREE PERSOKS KILLED.

Gl mtn s——— SAD ENDING OF AN EXCURSION: Seventy Persons Drowned. Baltimore, July 24.—~One of the most appaling calamites that has ever happen- ed in this vicinity occurred at North Point Tivoli excursion resort, about six- teen miles down the river. About two hundred people had gathered out near the end of the long pier for the purpose of getting on the excursion barge to re- turn to the city, when the wharf broke and over one hundred of them were pre- cipitated into the water, which was at least ten feet deep. Sixty-five of them were drowned, The wildest excitement followed the giving way of the bridge. Men, women and children went down together, and after them jumped nuom- bers of brave men who made desperate afforts to save some of the perishing peo- ple. All was confusion, and in their ef- ‘orts to save some of drowning ones, it is thought that several of those who went to the rescue also lost their lives, As one after another of the bodies were brought to the surface and landed, the grief of their friends was pitiful to witness, Husbands saw their wives and little ones brought up cold and lifeless Lrothers discovered their sisters among he mass of bodies, Some who thought hat their dear ones were lost fairly lanced with joy when they discovered them among the saved, while others looked in vain to find their friends or relatives among the living throng. Strong men and weak women fainted awayfat the horrible sight, and the scene on the wharf just after the accident beggars de- scription. 1 _- The Susquehanna Smelting and Mining Company's smelting works are in sue- cessful operation at Sunbury.
