TO CONFER MR. PLATT
Senator Quay at Last Registers at
the Fifth Avenue Hotel.
EARLY COXVEXTIOX WANTED
Piatt Thinks That It Is Nclihor Ncceisary
Nor Desirable to Prolong the Cam
paign Agony-Carter and .
Clarkson Are Present.
New York, Oct. 23. Senator Matthew
Stanley Quay, of Pennsylvania, ar
rived today at the Fifth Avenue hotel,
which Is the city home of ex-Senator
Thomas C. Piatt, and the long-talked-of
conference between the two men,
who, It Is believed, have it In their
power to name the Republican candi
date for president of the United 'States,
will take place there. Chairman
Thomas Carter changed his plans. He
did not go to Boston today, In order
to be present at the meeting here be
tween the two great leaders. General
James S. Clarkson will be there also.
Kx-Senator Piatt Is an advocate of
a late convention. He does not believe
that a campaign of education Is neces
sary. He thinks that everybody In the
United States is thoroughly familiar
with the mistakes of Orover Cleve
land; that the political wayfarer will
not be misled or fooled; that there is
only one road for him to take, and that
Is the road to Republicanism.
This conference will be preliminary
to a meeting of the Republican nation
al committee, which is to be held In
Washington in December. As Mr.
Quay will probably be the next chair
man of the committee his preference In
the matter will bear great weight. Wr.
Quay has had experience as a nation
al campalen manager. Mr. Clarkson
went to Philadelphia to sound him on
the subject, and to try to Induce him to
adopt the western view, which is for
an early convention.
In r-eiting the pace for the coming na
tional campaign the Republicans are
departing from the usual custom of par
ties In rational campaigns. It has been
the rule since the foundation of the
Government for the party In power to
take the tnitial steps In Presidential
campaigns by 'defining the Issues upon
which the battle for supremacy Is to be
fought. Historical precedt-nt will be
Ignored, however. In this case. The Re
publicans propose to make new history
if Mr. Plaits advice Is taken. He Is of
the opinion that a long campaign Is not
nectssary. There Is no Issue between
t.V: two parties upon which the people
require to be educated. They know of
the financial mismanagement, th weak
foreiMP. p licy ami the ruinous tariff
system of the Cleveland Administra
tion, and laM but not least, long cam
paigns are expensive. Mr. 'Piatt thinks.
The quest'on of a meeting place for
tho fivuurlkan National Convention Is
no nearer settlement today than It was
yesterday. Chairman Carter, however,
I as announced that he would likely Is
su a call to-day for the meeting of the
committee in Washington early In De
cember. A meeting that may mean much to
Pres.UtntlaJ rswlldates was held this
evening between Mr. Piatt, General Al
ger, of Michigan; Chauncey Filley. of
Missouri; Mr. Quay and Thomas II.
Carter, chairman of the Republican
committee. They tookdinner together
and discussed the many problems that
concerned them. Congressman Filley
was present to advocate the holding of
the national convention at St. Louis.
He realized 'that he will have a fight, as
Quay Is anxious for Pittsburg to bo
selected, while Mr. Carter and some
others favor San Francisco.
After dinner, Quay and Piatt had a
long conference. Roth refused to state
what they had dlycusseH but It Is undr
ptood the various candidates for the
presidential nomination were the ob
ject of discussion.

convention comes to the Pacific coast.
Prominent men of all parties are

and they have been assured by mem
bers of th national rommitte that San
Francisco's claims will be given care

SPAIN IS REAL SASSY.
Is Shs Informed That the United States
Will Reeognlie Cuba's Insurgents?
London, Oct. 23. The Central News
has a dispatch from Madrid saying
that the government has decided upon
the arming of several of the Spanish
trans-Atlantic company's steamers
and the conversion of the old cruisers
Numancla and Victoria Into niodorn
warships. The steamers will be armed
by the beginning of December and will
be sent to Cuba.
This action on the part of the gov
ernment Is generally, regarded as a
preparatory measure against the rcc
ogaltlon of the Insurgents as belliger
ents by any American government. It
is accepted as a certainty that Spain
would regard such recognition on the
part of any government as a violation
of International law and would im
mediately place the nation upon a war
footing and authorixe Spanish vessels
to capture upon the seas merchantmen
belonging to the nation so recognising
the Insurgents.

TWO ATTEMPTS TO KILL.
Shot Fired at Young llnirlneton and His
Life Attctnpcd l ater.
Roynlston. Mass., Oct. 23. Two at
tempts were made to murder Charles
Harrington, l'J years oiu, who lives
with his mother near Fitxwilllam line.

removing all the nuts from a wagon In
which he was expected to tuke a drive.
This was discovered In time to prevent
an accident.
There was a husking at Harring
ton's home last evening. While th
young man wus In the barn with a
party of his friends some one from out
side shot at him. The ball passed
through his hat and entered a beam.

ST. LOUIS JOBBERY.
Over $2,000,000 Has llcon Sunk In a
Worthless Citv llnll
St. lyouis. Oct. 23. As the committee
Investigating the work on the partially
computed city hall proceeds with their
labors. It finds fresh evidences of fraud
In construction.
The Iron columns In the main building
have been found to contain blow holes
which were concealed by Iron cement
and paint: the trusses are Insufficient to
sustain the weight of the rof: the tow
ers are believed to be unable to resist
high winds: the 'tiling of the roof Is de
fective ond the- building Is without
drain pipes or sewer connections.
In brief the immense pile of granite
and Iron which has already cost th
city over $2.f.0f!fl Is nractlcally worth
less as an official building and will have
to be reconstructed.

the Introduction, all recognized the
president and gave a mighty cheer.
The president had most respectful at
tention while he sHke. After a few
introductory words he said:
The Picsdcnt's Address.
"It seems to me the thought may be sug
gested as not Inappropriate to this occa
sion that what we see about us Is on out
ttruwth of another exposition inaugurated
on Anioi lean soil more than a century
hko. when a new nation was exhibited to
the civilised world, guaranteed and pro
tected by a constitution which wus or
ilnined and established by the people of
the I'nlted 8:ate. with the declared pur
pose of promoting their Keneral welfare
and securing the blessings of liberty to
themselves and their iosterlty. The suc
cess which has attemled this exposition
of products and manufactures Is not alio
(.'ether due to the quality of the soli or the
character of the people in any of the con
tributing states, but it rests largely upon
the fact that these states are members of
a beneficently governed nation, whose
natural resources and advantages every
where have been developed and Improved
by the Influence of free Institutions, and
whose people have been stimulated and en
couraged by the blessings of personal
ilDeriy.
A contemplation of the twneflts voueh-1
ssfed to us by our government easily re.
minds us of the !miortance of a hearty
and united ro-operatlon In th"lr support
nnd protectlou. We should lovingly
watch this and guard it, not only because
we are recipient of its precious gifts, but
for Its own sake and because It has been
put in our hands In sacred keeiilng. to
prove to the world that man can be trust
ed with self-government.
"We shall walk In the path of patriotic
dutv. If, remembering- that our fre insti
tutions mere established to promote the
general welfare, we strive for those thing
which be hp lit all our people, and each of
us Is content to receive, from a common
fund hl share of the prosperity thus con
tributed. We shall miss our doty and for
feit our heritage. If In narrow selfishness
we aro heedless of the general welfare
and struggle to wrest from the govern
ment prlvnte advantage" which can only
bo gained at the exicnse of our fellow
countrymen.
"I hope I may therefore be permitted In
conclusion to siigret bs a most important
!es-nn tanubt by this occasion, the abso
lute necessity to our nntlonal health an I
welfare and consequently to our Indi
vidual hnttlnes as clilr.en. of a cnreful
discrimination In our npnort of ,olc s

"If we are to cn'oy the bleslns our

itiftly bestow w-e shall secure them In doe
time by cultivating a spirit of broad
Amerlenn brotherhood and liisltlng noon
neb conduct is will within lb solrlt of
the Oolden Rule promote the general wel
fare." The conclusion of the speech wn"
greeted with cheers. Then the crowd
called for Carllflc. and he arose anil
bowed, but refused to speak. Vice
Presldei' Stevenson In the same man
ner acknowledged the shouts for him,
and shook his head when the people
called for a speech.
The MsnldinkliiB ltcri"s
President Collier announced that 'Mr.
Cleveland would shake hands with the
people If they would pass by in an or
derly line. Instantly there was a
hrenk for the reviewing stand. Here
and there ladles caught in the Jam
fainted, but that did not deter others.
For nn hour the president shook hands
fuster, he nnld, than ever before In his
life. When he grew weary the com
mltteo rushed him Into a carriage nnd
off to the Pltdmont Driving club. Just
In tha outhir cdirc of the grounds.
There a champagne luncheon was
served at 3 o'clock to the president,
cabinet officer nnd their wives, nfter
which the rarty began o take In all the
buildings systematically. At 4 o'clock
the president held a reception In the
negro bulldlnir.
Tl.e lunchem aril the rest refreshed
the president, who had been fatigued
by standing so long speaking and shak
ing bandit. He was especially anxious'
to see the duvplay made by the United
States governmer.'! nnd the negroes. He
spt-nt more time In 'these two bulldlnes
.'.han in any others. He was greatly
Impressed by the showing which the
race made. tMr. Cleveland was greatly
gratified, 'too, st what he saw In the
government 'building.
Victim of s Cruel Joke.
When Mr. Cleveland was seen ap
proaching thai display some of the com
mittee remarked to the President that
the flrh had better hunt deeper water.
He replied thaf he did not know before
that Atlanta offered such good fishing.
The othtr buildings were visited more
hurriedly. The vlsvtors were -driven
nround the grounds past all the state
buildings and throuch the Midway,
which was packed with spectators and
representatives of aUosen nations lined
up do ee tho iroeesslon pass. The
plolers forgot to spiel, hut the Egyp
tian and Mexican bands attempted
something supposed to be "Hall to the
Chief."
k To-filgbt -there were fireworks, a re
ception In the city, and at 1 o'clock the
party lett by special train over tha
Southern Railway for Washington.

Bruisers Aro Shv.
Little Rock. Ark., Oct. 23. The Su
preme court has quashed the proceed
ings In the Corbett habeas corpus and
decided that Chancellor Leatherman,
of Hot Springs, overstepped his Juris
diction In hearing the proceedings In
the Corbett case; that It should have
gone before a Justice of the peace, to be
tried ami appealed from there. The
court also declared the law of 1S91
against prize fighting in this state to
be valid and operative. This law makes
prize fighting a misdemeanor, punish
able with a tine of from $1,000 to $2,500.
Corbett will be re-arrested and forced
to give a peace bond. The governor says
he will await the next move of the prize
J fighters and their contingent before
r rii m iiii nnv riirrnur nri.iiuruiinn.
Hot Springs, Ark.. Oct. 23. Dan Stu
art, who leaves for Dallas this after
noon, still clings to the hope that the
Corbi-tt and Fltzslmmons light can be
brought off on -Nov. 11 and he will re
turn on Sunday. Joe Vendig this morn
ing received n telegram from John
Fltzpatrlck, Coleman House, New
York, asking him If he would take
charge of a match between lavlgne
nnd Jack McAullffe, as a feature of
the proposed supplementary carnival
here. 'He will not answer until the
skies have cleared.
Hot Springs, Ark., Oct. 23. Martin
Julian now regards the light situation
with equanimity and said to the United
Presa to-night:
"I have the guarantee of the city of
Hot Springs, signed by Mayor Waters,
that if Fltzsimmons Is brought here he
nhall not be molested. If he Is alive
nothing on earth shall prevent my hav
ing him In this city on Thursday next.
Provided that Corbe-tt has not eneaked
away in the meantime I shall semi him
word that Fltzsimmons is at the hotel
and desires him to come down and ar
range for a meeting In private, pro-
rtnd. of pours..-, that the Florida Club
cannot bring the thing off. Should Cor
bett fall to respond then I will take
Fltzsimmons out to his training quar
ters. "Let me ray that within 'the past
twelve hours I have learned two facts
that can be substantiated one Is that
the Florida Club desires the postpone
ment to November 11 because it had
not been able to make up Its purse of
$41,000 ar U the other on the authority of
a physician of this town, that Corbott's
physical condition Is bad. Here are
two good reason why they don't want
to fight us on the date airreed uion."
W. A. Hrndy. who came In from Cor
bett's quarters In the afternoon simply
na Id that he did not attach much im
jvortance to Hie decision nnd that Cor
bett would remain ot (Spring Lake for
a couple of necks. There Fltzsimmons
would llnd him If he came here In the
meantime.
According to President llabeock. of
the Athletic association, the statutes
Hre now clearer than at any time since
Corbett's arrest. .V inimlemcanor un
der the laws of this state is punishable
only by a fine of $l,ooo to $1.W0 wMh
out Imprisonment and In the rae of a
light only the principals arc subject to
arrest. Interference en the iart of the
governor Is also prevented by the decis
ion which knocks In the head his ex
cellency's Interpretation of the law of
ISiiS concerning the suppression of riot
ous assemblages.
Th champion was absolutely re
leased from custody of the sheriff after
Chancellor Leathcrman's decision, and
was not required to even find bonds for
his appearance, should the appeal to
the Supreme court be adverre to his po
sition. In the opinion of several mem
bers of the local bar he cannot even un
der the decision be again arrested for
conspiring to commit a breach of the
peace.
Joe Vendig, when made acquainted
with the action of the court raid that
In his Judgment the club could make
no further effort to bring off the light.
The club will be out about $24,000.
Another strenuous effort to bring
Corbett nnd Fltzsimmons together wns
made tonight by the citizens' commit
tee. Hra ly and Julian were Invited to
meet the committee nnd 'both respond
ed. President llabeock announced
that a gentleman now In the city wis
prepared to see that the purse of $10,000
was forthcoming, or to put up $5,000
toward a fight In private with six men
preser.'t on each side. Itrady wished
that an understanding should be
reached In regard to the referee before
the new articles were signed, nnd that
Fitzalmmona' aide bet of $10,000 must
be up on the dny that the purse Is in
sight. Julian told the committee that
he was compelled to leave In the morn
ing, but would return Sunday prepared
to resume negotiations, and If possible
bring them to a successful conclusion.
The names of numerous men for ref
eree were presented by both managers,
but no agreement was reached when

WHITE RIBBON LIBERALITY
The Society Will Know Neither Sect
Nor Creed in Its Noble Work.
MISS WILLARD TRIUMPHANT
Ucr Suggestions That Catholic and
Hebrew Women Be Invited to Join
the Society Are Adopted ' In
Spite of All Opposition.
Baltimore. Md., Oot. 23.-At to
day's session of the Woman's Christian
Temperance Union Miss Wlllard carried
the convention with her in a broad
movement to include Catholics and He
brews In fraternal relations with the
White R'lbbon Society. The question
aroae with the Introduction' of the fol
lowing: Resolved, That Catholic women and He
brew women should be Invited to send fra
ternal delegates from their annual con
ventions to ours, and to establish branches
or the White Ribbon society within their
own borders.
One of the delegates submitted that
It might not be quite consistent for
the "Women's Christian Temperance
union" to ask 'Hebrews to afllliate. She
laid special emphasis on the word
"Christian." This roused Miss Wil
lard. She called the vice president,
Ma Stevens, to the chair and took the
floor, speaking In a stirring manner,
evidently from a full heart. She said:
"I want to recognize these two denomi
nations because In places where I have
been, especially in the south, they ex
hibited sympathy in our work, and have
extended every courtesy. It has especial
ly touched my heart that in meetings
where 1 have presented the work of this
organization, among those who have wel
comed me to the platform have been the
Ca.thollc priest and the Hebrew rabbi.
"They knew what I came for, they
knew what I represented, and If they were
broad enough to go half way and extend
the hand of greeting, should my hand be
to small and withered as not to accept the
clasp? I want to welcome them to us if
they want to come." (Applause.)
Hand of Fellowship FxtendeJ.
After iMIss Wlllard's speech the reso
lution passed through ail the phases of
amendment, additional 1o the amend
ment, but everything was voted down
and the national committee, led by Miss
Wlllard, extended the hand of fellow
ship to Catholics and Hebrews.
A resolution Introduce!! by Miss Wll
lard was adtpted' calling on the United
States government to make Vts power
felt In the diplomatic council of the na
tions on the subject bt Armenia. An
other resolution extends to Theodore
Roosevelt hearty thanks for demon
Kratintr that the saloons can be closed
on the abbath In New York city.
The greatest variety of topics has
been before the convention and dis
posed, of with ability and despatch.
The main Issues, however, were not
lost sight of. and Miss Wlllard and the
delegates generally believe the society
has taken a step toward the creation
of public sentiment for the enactment
of laws to abolish the sale of liquors,
and to prohibit the "social evil."
!Tb nUtui-fur the holding of Che next
annual convention was not decided
upon. It Is the general belief that I.os
Angeles; Cal., will be selected by the
executive committee.
Hundreds who tried were unable to
guin admission to Music hall tonight to
witness he closing scenes of the con
vention. Hanners were presented to
several state unions, which showed
large ains In membership, and there
was a feast of music. Great enthus
iasm prevailed.

their runners In following their Inter
