Another Watterson Warning.

Under “A Word to New York Dem~
ocratS,” Henry Watterson publishes
the following sensational editorial ar-
raignment of his party in New York
State: “The New York Sun and Herald,
and fer the matter of that most of the
newspapers of the Empire State, have
a deal to say about the importance of
the vote of that great commonwealth
to the democratic party. This is true
enough. New York being after a fash-
ion a democratic State, the democratic
party has constantly to consider how it
may be prevented from turning itself
over to the republicans, which the local
democratic factions have variously, but
invariably threatened every four years.
In each of the three last national dem-
ocratic conventions New York has ap-
peared as adisturbing element. In the
conventions of 1876 and 1880 the specta-
cle presented by New York was dis-
graceful.

“The truth is that New York, from
sheer force of pressure and habit, seems
to be incapable of addressing any other
argument to the democracy of the coun-
try except one composed in equal parts
of menace and money. To browbeat
and cajole, to threaten and entice is
the usual stock in trade of the average
New York politician, and the democrats
of the West and South are mighty tired
Of it.

They apprehend the value of the vote
of New York as a factor in the general
election. They realize its potency in a
national convention. As a rule they
are not unwilling to buy it, since it can

only be had by purchase, provided it ,

does not cost too much. But they don’t

'like to be bullied into this every time a

national convention meets to select a
national ticket, and it is quite sure that
if in 1892 New York attempts this old
game it will be found ineffectual, in

h ' 1 ' d itself out and being.
av1ng p aye ' 1 ing: “On their (the Americans) tongues

thoroughly exposed.

Except in 1876 there has been no elec-
tion since 1868 when an outside nomi-
nee would not have been stronger in
the State of New York than an actual
nominee who has been either a New
Yorker or a quasi New Yorker.

In 1880, Gen. Hancock. a soldier liv-
ing at the time on Governor’s Island,
but unused to the arts of political war-
fare, was easily cheated out of the vote
of New York. In 1884 Mr. Cleveland
would have lost it except for a chapter
of accidents by which he was pulled
through literally by the hair of his
head. Any outsider would have run
stronger, because any candidate except
him would have had within New York
a united democratic support, whilst the
11111gwumps, irrevocably committed
against Blaine, could have gone no—
where else.

“ In a word, as long as New York is
the abode of faction, the New York
candidate must in the very nature of
the case prove a weak candidate. But
the democratic managers and politi-
cians of New York may as well make
up their minds now as later that if they
expect to be considered next time they
must wash their dirty linen at home.

“The \Vest and South do not mean
to stand any more d—n nonsense. We
have had too much of it already.

“ Let the New York Sun and the New
York Herald and all other New York
newspapers, either democratic or with
democratic proclivities, put these plain-
spoken but. kindly intended observa-
tions in their pipes, clay or cob, as the
case may be and bestow their gentlest
respiration upon them. A stitch in time
saves nine, and wisdom comes after 1e-
flection. Turn over the leaves of your
Poor Richard’s Almanac, gentlemen,
and when found stick a pin.”

BRIEF INTENTION.

At the cabinet meeting the subject 01
the appointment of a successor to Super-
visin g Architect Windrim was discussed
without any conclusion being reached. It
is still believed that a Philadelphia candi-
date will be appointed.

The latest news from Valparaiso, Chili,
received at Panama, points to the genera]
desertion of the Balmaceda cause by the
troops and people.

The famous Scotch cutter Thistle, well
known throughout the yachting world as
the boat which was defeated in the inter-
national race for the America’s cup at New
York by the American centerboard yacht
Volunteer, has been purchased by Emperm
William.

Hon. Russell Erret, one of the founders
of the Republican party, died in Pittsburg,
aged seventy-three years.

Secretary Blaine is not disposed to make
any explanation of his dismissal of the Ca,
nadian reciprocity envoys other than to say
that neither he nor the president could at
tend to them at present. Later, and in the
coming summer, they may return to “Tash-
ington and will then be heard.

A Rich Natural Gas Strike.

ST. MARYS, 0., April 9. ———Natural gas in
large volume was struck yesterday near
St. John. The well is now registering
4, 000, 000 feet a day, and the gas is under
high pressure. The strike has caused great
activity among the oil and gas men of this
di s-tIiL-l, and many leaseso have already
been made.

He Will Submit the Correspondence,

to the "Chamber of Deputies.
THE INDEMNITY “GLAMOB.

The Italia Says Americans Have but One
God, Their Strong Box, and It
Should Be Attacked to the
Fullest Possible Extent.

ROME, April 9.—The Messagero says that
upon the reassembling of the chamber of
deputies Premier Rudini will submit the
correspondence exchanged between the
Italian government and that of the United
States with regard to the lynching of Ital-
ians in New Orleans.

The paper says that the correspondence
will testify to the success achieved by the
Italian prime minister in the controversy,
and declares that President Harrison’s dis-
patch to King Humbert expressing sym-
pathy with Italy also requested that mon-
arch’s aid in the efiorts being made to
harmonize the interests of the two coun-
tries so‘ far as he could act with due re-
gard td‘his dignity.

King Humbert, in his reply to this'lette‘r
from President Harrison, is represented as
saying that he entirely approved of the

conduct of the Italian government, and -

hoped that an agreement would be ar-
rived at.
A11 Opportune Incident.

In contradiction to the tenor and spirit
of The Messagero’s story, many well in-
formed people in the Italian capital assert
that the recall of Baron Fava was simply

precipitated by the lynching incident. The.

ministry, they insist, wanted reasons for
its failure to efiect promised reductions in
the military and other expenditures of the
government, and the complication with
the United States was in this instance,
opportune as giving the ministry some-
thing with which to go before the parlia-
ment and the people as an argument in de-
fense of its failure to lighten the burdens
of the country.

Italia gives it as its opinion that Ameri-
cans have but one God—their strong box.
Continuing, the paper urges that it is at
this box the Italians must strike for re-
venge. The largest possible indemnity, it
insists, should he demanded. Rising equal
to the occasion, Italia concludes by say-

there is but one word—dollars. Let us
take advantage of it.”

The stock market was less active during the
two hours to noon today. The sales amounted
to 105, 800 shares. Northern Pacific preferred,
St. Paul, Louisville and Nashville, the Sugar
stocks, Burlington and Chicago Gas were the
stocks that furnished the most trading. The
market opened weak and fractionally lower,
under the lead of the Villard stocks, which were
pressed for sale on the announcement that Mr.
Villard had lost his financial backing, but after
the first few minutes the market steadied, and
a subsequent moderate buying gave prices I
turn upward. By 10:45 the early decline was
more than recovered, and prices advanced
fractionally above those of last night. Toward
11 o‘clock there was another period of selling

and a slight reaction. The market was very '

dull in the hour to midday, but the' undertone
was firm. In some cases prices were bid up.
At the close values were firm at about the best
figures.
