New Tokk, Jnne 15. Everything is in
readiness at Sheepshead for the greatest
Suburban on record, and should the day be
fine and the track in good condition, there
are half a dozen horses that will come to the
post capable of running in record time or
better and present indications are that the
finith will be confined to these can
didates of superlative merit Tenny,
the greatest 4-year-old that has shown
this year, will go to the post
favorite, hut the .-nances are that the great
Tolume of money which will pour into the
ring on the other candidates will lengthen
his price materially and enable Dave Pulsi
fer and bis friends to obtain a much better
figure than they had hoped for on the day
of the race. The sway-backed colt is the
corralar choice for the race because he
has performed in public this year
and has demonstrated that he is
still the possessor of that snperb
turn of speed which made him one of the
phenomenons of the turf of 1SS3. His owner
has no fears of the outcome, declaring bravely
that Tenny ill win unless he meets with an ac
cident. McLaughlin will nae, but this is not
regarded as anything greatly in his favor, as
Jimmy, while undoubtedly a king among
jockeys, has been away from active duty In the
saddle for a loug time, and there is nothing like
contant training in races to Keep both man and
horse in the top notch of condition. Mc
Lauglin is now down to weight, and one thing
can be relied upon, the colt will not be missed
during the race, as McLaughlin has a splendid
pair of bands and is a judge of pace.
FOB SKCOSD CHOICE.
After Tenny the names of Raceland, Salva
tor, Firenzi, Prince Royal and Longstreet are
most frequently mentioned as probable win
ders. Mr. Belmont will send both Raceland
and Prince Royal to the post, and a doughty
team tbey will be. Raceland won tne race a
rear ago, and his trainer says he can beat
Tenny when they meet prince Royal showed
that he is at concert pitch by the easy way In
which he established a be-t record at
Westchester in the Rancbo del Paso
handicap, and stranger things have happened
than Prince Royal's ulnnlngtbe Suburban. Mr.
Ilaggm's Kirenzl and Salvator are both lit to
race for a kingdom, the mare especially so,
and from the present outlook she will go to
the post, Mr. Byrne having said that the big
colt would be kept in the stable if the track
was dry and fast, and should no more rain fall
a good track is a certainty. Salvator is a
superlative performer in heavy-going, and if
he has improved as much over bis 3-year-old
form as Tenny has the talent need look no
further for the winner. But neither Salvator
nor Firenzi have raced in public this year, and
consequently the knowing ones are at sea.
A DASGrBOUS HOKSE.
How comes Longstreet, a decidedly danger
ous commodity in any company on a hard, dry
track. Longstreet has beaten Tenny ana Sal
vator, and why can't he do it again? That's
what a good man said to-day. Careful consid
eration of Longstreet' public form as a 3-year-old,
linked with the fact that he is thrown into
the handicap at 117 pounds 10 less than Balva
tbr, 11 less than Raceland and 9 less than
' Firenzi and Tenny and the chances of the colt
cannot be passed by unnoticed. Sir Dixon may
start if the track is muddy, in which event
Longstreet, who is a singularly bad performer
in heavy going, will not see the post. Some
persons thought Sam Brown would start
Senorita. but Reporter, who is a sure starter
and will be ridden by Covington, will probably
carrv the Pittsburg turfman's colors.
Bifly Lakeland will start Tea Tray In the
mile race at Brighton Beach to-morrow (Mon
day) and if the son of Rayon D'Or acquits him
self satifactonly he will be sent to the post.
Proctor Knott and English Lady, the pair that
will represent the West, are sure starters, and
the big gelding never looked better than to
day. The Knott has never been trained prop
erlv heretofore, and the sensational winner of
the Junior Champion and the Futurity in 'S3
will prove that he is not one of the "lias beens"
when it comesTO a race. The West is solid for
tle Knott and his racy-looking companion.
Strideaway Is highly thought of by his owners,
and Stoval has been engaged to ride the son of
Spinawav. whose impost is hut 116 pounds.
Come to Taw may go, but it is doubtful, as he
is not within 0 pounds of his true form.
"VOLUNTEER'S WOBK.
Volunteer is one that will show the way for
some portion of the race. Mr. Withers was
strongly in favor of declaring his sensational
Fa vordale colt ont of the race two months ago,
but Trainer Knapsack McCarthy stands to win
a fortune if the brown colt wins, and the Sage
of Brookdale determined that Knapsack
should have a run for his money. The lucky
Beverwyck stable will undoubtedly make
strong efforts to repeat their performance in
the Brooklyn handicap. Cassius and Lavinia
Belle, with Barnes and Covington np, being
their candidates. Cassius carries bnt 107
pounds, and the fact that be put up 110 pounds
and ran second to Tenny. who had 115 up, a
mile In 1:40 beating Sir Dixon at even
weights, has set folks to thinking.
The dark horses of the contest may be the
black colt Loantaka, a sensationni sprinter, but
whose ability to negotiate a distance of ground
is questioned. This colt has pnt np weight and
ran away from the fastest horses on the turf
for seven furlongs. His, owners say he can go
a mile and a quarter. Montague has an out
side chance with but 103 pounds up, and the
Preakness colt, who will be ridden by Martin,
together with St. Luke, who is named as an
almost certain starter, will make up the field.
This insures at least IS starters and plenty of
excitement. Frank Clark has worked rfght
valiantly to have a good track for the race,
and should the weather remain settled bis
efforts will be successful.

THE SMITE-SALT FIGHT.
The Battle to Take Place To-NJght Before.
fl Buffalo Club.
Buffalo. Jnne 15. The fight between Ed
Smith, of Denver, ahd.J)aiy,of -Philadelphia,
will take place at 1020 Monday night before
the Arlington Athletic Clubbf Buffalo. The
purse is 11,500. and the club has bet William
Mnldoon, Smith's trainer, 500 on the outside
that Daly wins.
Smith stands 5 feet 10J Inches high, and
when in condition weighs 175 pounds. He is
probably as plucky andgameya fighter as any
man who ever stepped Into the ring.
"He is a good man," said Mnldoon to a re
porter to-day. "I think he can beat any man
of his weight in the world.
"The winner of this fight will probably be
pitted against Godfrey, the colored fighter of
Boston, or Kilrain. The Puritan Athletic
Club or Long Inland City stands ready to offer
a purse of 12,000 for a 'go' between the winner
aud Godfrey. II bmitb wins, and 1 feel sure he
will. I will bet $u00 that he can defeat Godfrey,
and the acceptance of the Bostonian is all that
is necessary to conclude the match. In case
Godfrey won't fight, the club will offer a purse
of 3.000 for Smith and Kilrain. In such an
event it is optional with Smith whether or not
he accepts, as far as I am concerned. In such
a contest I would not care to back him finan
cially." 6UIXT WOH'T ACT.

A PBEE WOOL HEH0BIAI
Sent Oat by the Consumers Association of
Effete Boaton.
Boston, June 15. A memorial in favor
of free wool has been sent to the Senate
Finance Committee by the Wool Consumers'
Association. It starts out witb this: "For
the protection of the woolen manufacture of
the country, and for its rescue from a most
hampered and distressed condition we ask
for a great reduction or the total abolition of
the duty on wool."
And it closes thus: "As all the wool
grown , iu the world is now wanted, the
American grower could hardly be injured
by the readjustment of values, if at the
worst his product should fall slightly in
price he would be compensated soon by the
larger and more certain demand from the
stimulated and increased manufacture.
"The demand for mutton is rapidly increas
ing, and it is afforded in better quality by
sbeep which produce long wool than by the
breeds producing short, fine wool. The half
breed mutton sheep's wool, in the warp,
works admirably with the rejected worsted
fibers, and the Montevideo fleeces in the fill
ing. Thus the mutton flocks would be stim
ulated through the importation of free raw
materials. The American oonsumer of
woolens and worsteds would get.better fabric
at prices generally lower."

fSFECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DISPATCH
Cincinnati, June 15. Cincinnati and
the country for 50 miles around experienced
a sensational storm to-day. It began at
noon and for more than an hour terrified
thousands. The wind was severe, the light
ning of a fierce disposition and alarming'
frequency, the rain was fast, furious and
deluge like. At 4 A. m. V severe rain had
flushed the city clean, but brought no cool
ing air, and np to noon the sun shone with
oppressive fury. '
The storm came up suddenly as the
churches were closing, and the thousands
who thronged the cable and electric cars
were caught in the first down pour; curtains
offered no relief and windows were burst in.
Hundreds of ladies dressed in costlr rai
ment were drenched to the skin and the loss
in that direction must be heavy.
STOPPED THE CABS.
As the storm grew heavier lightning be
gan its work. All the three of the electric
roads were rendered useless and miles of
their wires destroyed. The flood along the
Sycamore street cable line, running through
the most thickly populated portion of the
city, was so great that the cars, could not
traverse the streets and the road was tem
porarily abandoned.
In 15 minutes 2,700 telephone wires were
burned out and one lady operator was
dangerously hurt. The fire alarm system
was wrecked and lightnine about spoiled
the new Gest street engine house. The ele
gant residence of J. F. Carlson, on Harri
son avenue, was knocked to pieces by the
same bolt. By 1 o'clock every sewer in the
city was full and' the streets were amateur
rivers. State street, a narrow thoroughfare
lying very low in a valley of what was once
Deer creek, became a torrent, water stood 2
and 3 feet deep in the houses and drift was
doing much damage.
DBOWNED IN A SEWER.
Edward Lanahan, who keeps a grocery
on the street, was standing on a raft near his
door warding off timber, when he slipped
and was sucked into a sewer. His body has
not been recovered. The storm formed a
ravine 20 feet wide and 10 deep from Slack
to Boat street through land worth $500 a
front foot. In all, 33 houses were unrooted
in the city, thousands of trees ruined, and
in the lower portions many thousand dol
lars' damage done to goods on first floors of
stores.
Two people were blown off a shanty boat
near the mouth of the Miami river and
drowned, and thonsands of dollars of dam
age done to coal boats and timber rafts.

A GHASTLY MYSTESY.
Half Bnrned Remains of Inoc Deo Found in
Tioga County Woods.
ISrECIAI, TELICRAM TO TUB DISPATCH. I
Elmiba, N. Y., June 15. What appears
to have been a horrible murder was to-day
unearthed near Lakewood, in Tioga county,
Pa. George Lotts, a farmer living near
Gregg's schoolhouse, while at work
in the woods peeling bark, saw pro
truding from beneath a log a man's
leg encased in a boot. Scattered about in
the ashes of burned wood were the
crumbled bones of a human form.
the largest remaining being those of
the skull and jaw. Coroner Harnden.
of Waverly, was notified and went to the
scene. A number of people of Waverly ac
companied him, among whom was
Isaac Hucklf. Arriving at the
scene the portion of the leg below
the knee, encased in a few shreds
of crisp cloth' and a leather boot,
was removed from beneath the log and by
the tap on the boot the ghastly remnant of
a human body was identified by Mr.
Huckle as belonging to his father-in-law,
Isaac Deo.
Near by the scene of this tragedy was a
pile of wood. Concealed in this was fonnd
a revolver, one chamber of which was
empty. Mr. Deo was formerly a
miller at Waverly, and lived there
with his son-in-law, Isaac Huckle. He left
home about five weeks ago. Tbe coroner's
jury decided that Deo came to his death by
burning in a manner unknown.
OVEB 800 MiT.t:s OP CABLE
Carried to Hnlifax. lo be Stretched From
That City to Bermuda.
Bermuda, June 15. On Saturday was
announced the arrival of the cable steamer
West Meath, having on board the cable that
is hereafter to connect Bermuda with
Halifax and with the great world
beyond. The cable is coiled on
board the West Meath in iron tanks.
The time occupied in coiling it on board
was 17 davs and as many nights. Its length
is 874 miles, and throughout it is of much
greater weight than has hitherto been used.
The West Meath has left for Halifax. On
her passage thither a careful survey of the
bed of the ocean will be made, so as to dis
cover the most suitable position for
the cable. The temperature at dif
ferent depths will at the same time
be determined. -The time occupied by
this necessary survey, and by arrangements
to be made nt the Halifax end will be
about a fortnight; at tbe end of this period
the work oflaying will be begun, and under
favorable circumstances the completion of
the laying may be expected before the end
of Jnly.-

A Serious Accident at a Summer Resort
Near Cleveland More Thaa a Peore In
Jured, Several of Them Seriously nnd
One Fatally.
Cleveland, June 15. There was a seri
ous accident this evening at Beyerle's Park,
a summer resort in the southern part of the
city. At least 5,0u0 people had assembled
to see a man jump from a cable stretched
across a miniature artificial lake. People
stootf all around the lake; and a hundred or
more were on a rustic footbridge about ten
feet from the ground and extending
from a blufl out across the lake.
The jumper made the descent at
about 630 o'clock. He struck the
water near the shore, and the people on the
bridge made a rush for the place. Nearly
all of them were massed on a 35-foot span
adjoining the blufE The'structure fell with
a crash, going down in the, middle. The
footpaths under the bridge-, 'were crowded
with people and upon these the timbers fell,
while those on the building were thrown in
a heap in the center of the span where it
struck the ground. At least 25 persons were
injured more or less seriously, bnt only
eight were hurt so bmlly that they had to go
to a hospital. Following is a list of the seri
ously injured:
James Sanford,52 years, 240 Lake street,
right leg fractured and internal injuries, prob
ably fatal; Rudolph Woodnck, 28 years, 43
Louis street, right leg fractured and head
bruised; Mrs. Rudolph Woodrlck, spine and
shoulder hurt: Jesse Caldwell, 17 years, Broad
way, ankle fractured and arm badly injured;
Bertha Mnnter, 15 years, 819 Clark avenue,
right hip fractured and internal injuries; Anna
Thoman, 11 years, 831 Clark avenne, right ankle
broken; Mary Thoman, 22 years, back and head
injured; unknown, one-legged man, leg broken.
Had the bridge broken over the lake the
list of deaths would have been alarmingly
large.

A Row In. the Central Labor Union Over
the Admission of Reporters.
New Yobk, June 15.' At the meeting of
the Central Labor Union last Sunday, the
Socialists and Conservatives had a row, in
which the latter prevailed, deciding to ex
clude the Socialistic press reporters. The
Socialists held a meeting this morn
ing ' and decided to withdraw
from the Centra Labor Union altogether
and to form a new central body unless the
obnoxious resolution relative to the Social
istic press were rescinded. At the evening
meeting Delegate Jablownski fired the first
gun in a vigorous protest against the
adoption of the minutes of the last meeting
and the fight that ensued thereon was fierce
and vigorous.
After a long scrimmage, the Conservatives
found tbey could do nothing, and a motion
was made to adjourn, which the Chair pro
nounced carried. The Socialists, however,
were there for blood, and immediately upon
the withdrawal of the Conservatives they
continued the meeting, restoring the Social
istic labor press to representation in the
union.

of the passengers on the wrecked train on
the Bichmond and Danville railroad, near
Marshall yesterday, died of her injuries this
afternoon at the Glenrock Hotel in this city.
There were 24 persons on the train, 11 of
whom were injured. All the wounded were
brought to this place. Mr. Scarborough,
husband of the dead woman, also received
painful injuries in tbe back and shoulder.
Mrs. J. C. Vanbuholew, of Hickory, N. C,
is the only other person seriously injured.
She suffered a concussion of the spinal column-,
with paralysis of the lower extremity,
and is in a very critical condition. The ac
cident occurred immediately on the bank ot
French Broad river, some ten miles south of
Hot Springs, and was caused by a defective
brace on the rear truck of tbe tender. The
Pullman car and a first class car were thrown
from the track and turned on the side. All
the passengers injured were in those coaches.

against the savages in the southeast part of

not so far been very successful, and their
despised enemy, the savages, seem to nave

despite the great preparations which the
Government had been making for months
before he set out to exterminate his wary
enemies.
Over 800 soldfcrs were slaughtered In an

1892'S SWEET PLUM
Already Causing Much Speculation
Among Republicans,
HOW THE POLITICIANS I)IFPB.
A Bather Remarkable Claim Hade by Some
" of Harrison's Friends.
BHEEMAlf BEHIND M'SINLEI'S BOOM
rSPECIAL TELEGRAM TO TUB DISPATCH.
New" Yobk, June 15. A good deal of
speculation and prophecy regarding the
next Bepublican Presidents! candidate is
heard among the politicians, despite the
fact that tbe selection is still two years dis
tant and that party sentiment as to men and
policy may undergo several changes in that
time. Prophets will have their say, how
ever, and the political leaders who drift in
and out of here from Washington are in a
much more pliable state for tbe interviewer
200 miles from the White House than when
under its shadow. Thus we have had Uncle
Jerry Busk among us this week full of Har
rison enthusiasm for 1892, and Secretary of
War Proctor also confided to a reporter yes
terday the opinion that Harrison would
lead the party hosts again.
It is to be noted, however, that while Jerry
Busk was declaring to one interviewer that
Wisconsin was solid for Harrison, a man
who wields greater influence in that State
than Busk was telling another reporter
under the same roof that no one knew where
THE BADGER STATE DELEGATION
would stand next time. He was Henry 0.
Payne, of Milwaukee, now Secretary of the
National Republican Committee, and per
haps the shrewdest Bepublican in the North
west. Payne handled the delegation at the
Chicago Convention, held it together for
Busk until he saw the right column in
which to land it, and then did so. It is
probable that he will wield a like influence
with the next delegation, but I doubt
whether he could tell, if he would, which
way he is heading, though it is snspscted
that it is not in the direction of Indiana.
I cite this Busk-Payne incident, not be
cause it is important, for Wisconsin is far
from being a decisive factor in President
making, bnt to show how politicians from
the same State hold different views of the
situation. Both Busk and Proctor, thontrh
able and popular, are the accidents of
geography in Cabinet making. Naturally,
they feel grateful to the power that brought
them into tbe national arena, and hence are
Harrison men. But how many votes can
they control in convention ? is tbe.question
by which tbe practical man in politics
gauges the weight of their opinions. Secre
tary Proctor's State has only half a dozen
votes in all, and Senator Edmunds controls
their disposition. With tbe latter's aid he
held Vermont solid for Harrison through all
the balloting the only State that did. If
Edmunds consents be can do it again, but'
the resnlt would be insignificant either way.
NOT MUCH SHOW FOB HARBISON.
A Bepublican not in office, but who made
Harrison's nomination possible after the
man then abroad was impossible, said to
me to-day that the Harrison men might find
themselves withont a captain a year or so
hence. "Harrison may not be so much of a
candidate as he is to-day," said he. "I
think it extremely probable in the event of
a Democratic Honse being elected this fall
that he will realize how different it is for a
President to re-elect himself, and hewill be
content with insuring a. Republican suc
cessor. Not since Andrew Jackson's time
has a President been re-elected, save in the
case of Lincoln and Grant. Events in
which they were the central figure re-elected
them. Hayes stepned aside rather than risk
party success, and Arthur, reaching out for
the prize, went so far that the party was
left divided, and defeat followed. Had
Cleveland unselfishly pnt aside his own
ambitions in 1888, the Bepublicans would
have had a harder fight and, perhaps, with
results not so satisfactory. Washington
fixed two terms as the limit for one Presi
dent, but I believe the people have cut off
one of them."
A BEMABKABLE CLAIM.
Whatever change a year may bring in the
President's attitude toward the 1892 nomi
nation, his friends are freely declaring now
that he will lead in battle again. Perhaps
the most remarkable claim tbey make is
that Mr. Blaine is a Harrison man re
markable, first, because Blaine has never
had any name but his own emblazoned on
his banner, and, second, because he has de
clared to his closest friends as firmly as he
did two years ago that he is forever out of
the Presidental arena, either for himself or
for others. Only last week he assured an
old political ally that he was content in his
firesent position and hoped to end his po
itical career in it. Tbe man to whom this
was said understood it to be a disclaimer of
the statement that he was urging Harrison's
renomination. Aside from his preferences,
whatever they may be, Mr. Blaine is wise
enough to know, however, that he conld not
bring his old followers together again for
any other man but himself, and he would
not attempt it.
The story comes here on pretty good
authority that Senator Sherman has deter
mined not to be a candidate for the nomina
tion next time, and that he is for McKinley
a a reward for the latter's steadfastness to
him at Chicago. Sherman has assumed
charge of McKinley's tariff bill in the Sen
ate, and there are other indications that be
and the Major are working together. It is
said, foo, by the sponsors lor this story that
Sherman could not hope for a solid delega
tion from Ohio without which it would be
useless for him to make the race. Those
who recall the impressive scene in the last
convention when McKinley rose in his seat
and begged his friends not to put him in the
position of betraying the trust Sherman had
imposed in him can understand why the
latter is now for McKinley.
NERVOUS OVEB BALLOT BEFOBM.
There is a good deal of nervousness among
politicians over the new election law, and
the probable lessening of their hold on such
voters as have hitherto trained with the
"machine," whether Bepublican or Demo
cratic for turn the penny on either side it
remains a penny still. I hear the ward
leaders of both parties express fears of its
effect on their respective interests, for thev
put but little faith in a voter doing as he is
toldwhen he is once out of sight. The new
law compels him to remain alone in a booth
at least three minutes berore depositing his
ballot. Moreover, no "worker" can ap
proach within 150 feet of the polls.
The point of most interest now, however,
especially to the taxpayers who foot the bills,
is tbe estimate that at least 40,000,000 bal
lots, perforated, and with numbered stubs,
must be printed. It seems ridiculous that
1,320,000 voters the Presidental and largest
poll .or this State should require so many
legal ballots, but tbe new law reads that
way, and tbe county clerks are making
ready to supply them. The State pays for
these which, perhaps, explains the liberal
distribution. There will also be "pasters"
famished by the candidates. Both parties

Booneville, Mo., Jnne 15. Sheriff
Cranmer, who was shot yesterday by Will
iam West, a prisoner in the county jail,
died to-day. Jnst before his death a mob,
composed of armed farmers from all pans
of the county, gathered around the jail to
take the prisoner and lynch him. The dy
ing Sheriff heard the threats of the crowd
and asked those around his bedside to tell
the mob that it was his dying request that
they commit no overt act but allow tbe law
to take its course.
When the Sheriff's death was announced
the mob became ugly, bnt when tbe Sher
iff's dying request was made known better
counsel prevailed, and tbe crowd quickly
dispersed. The jail is kept strongly
guarded, nevertheless.

too rapid inflow are apparent In many ways.
The farmers, both' In the older sections of tbe
country and the new, are now reaping some of.
tbe evil consequences. Doubtless farmers in
tbe older sections are suffering tbe most.
Another reason for depression, and believed
by many, is tbo cost of transportation. It is
maintained that tho tariff fixed by the railroad
companies has given the producer of wheat
in Minnesota and Dakota, for example, such
advantage over the Eastern prodncer (hatha
can no longer raise wheat without loss. It is
quite true that the transportation companies
can fix a price for transporting wheat high
enough to prevent the Western wheat grower
from sending a single- bnsbel to market,
but whether they are required to adopt such a
principle or policy is another question. If the
transportation companies ought to make such
rates as will protect the Eastern farmers from
Western competition, then they certainly have
a serious grievance against the transportation
companies which should be settled withont
delay. But if we understand the Eastern
farmers they do not maintain this doctrine;
their position is that tbe same rate per mile
ought to be charged to alL If this principle
was adopted, then tbe Eastern farmer would
snrely have a great aavantage over those wbo
are raising wheat and other products far from
Eastern markets. To this, however, the rail
road company wonld reply that a considerable
portion of the expense is Incurred in loading
and unloading tbe cars and that the expense is
just as great for transporting wneat a mile as
lor transporting It L&jO miles. They maintain,
therefore, and not without reason, that a tariff
based simply on mileage, not taking into ac
count tbe cost ot loading and unloading the
cars, would be very unfair and they ought not
to be required to adopt it.
