The’ reports of failures and impending ones so i materialized into the announcement the. tgd well known firm of s. v. White a Go. ha a'si signed.

Lon- !‘ho Secretary of State, I: Is Assorted, Will Make the Official Announce“) cut in January Next—An Independ- ent New York Convention. NEW YORK, Sept. 23.4The Mail and Ex- press prints a special dispatch from \V’asi. ington, which says: . Mr. J amés G. Blaine will, soon after the first of the new year, notify his friends and admirers who are now urging his nomilm tion for the presidency that under no cir— cumstances could he accept such an hon or, and that he is for the renomination and re-election of Benjamin Harrison. This information is given on the au- thority of a. man whose name is national and Whose position as a friend of Mr. Har- rison and of Mr. Blaine is unquestioned. He is the man who has had charge of the northwest for the president, and who has had the fullest confidence of both the in- terested parties. Will Announce It in January. The situation as here given has been known to the president for some time, and Mr. Blaine postpones his notification for good and sufficient reasons best known to himself. He expects to return [to Wash- ington in October, and his health has so much improved that he will get to work at once, as there are a number of import- ant matterswhich require his personal at— tention. There have been rumors galore as to what Mr. Blaine intends to do in response to the clamor for his accepting a nomina- tion, but this is the first positive state- ment that in January he will announce in no uncertain terms that he cannot be a candidate. New York’s Independent Convention. ALBANY, Sept. 23.—Right on top of the nomination of Forest Commissioner Dud- ley Farlin for senator by the Albany Citi- zens’ alliance yesterday, comes the state- ment that the independent convention that was to have been held at the Turkish Bath house here last Saturday is to take place on Friday. It is alleged that this convention will be of more moment than is supposed, and that five distinct farmer and labor organ- izations will be represented by delegates. The Farmers’ Alliance of this state, other- wise known as the Farmers’ league, is to have Secretary M. G. Spaulding to repre- sent it, and the other Farmers’ league (un- incorporated) is to be represented by See- retary Henry E. Abell. The Knights of Labor are to have a representative in the person of Mr. Callahan, of Utica, and the Federation of Labor will also have a com- mittee. They “’ant Jones for Governor. It is well known that Messrs. Spaulding, Abell and Callahan are all for Lieutenant Governor Jones for governor, but whether he will rescind his resolution expressed to Mr. Spaulding not to run is not known. It is stated that in case the lieutenant gov- ernor declines to allow his name to be used, the convention will indorsc the nom- ination of Daniel D‘s Leon, the socialistic candidate for governor. In the line of resolutions there is to be something quite stirring. Mr. Flower is to be denounced as a breeder of monopo- lies and a purse proud patrician. Almost similar resolutions will be passed concern- ing Mr. Fassett, and Lieutenant Governor Jones will be culogized. Foster to Talk for llIcKinlcy. IVASHINGTON, Sept. 23.—-Secretary Fos‘ ter will go to Ohio about the lst of Octo« bar to assist Major McKinley in his cam— paign in that state.

BRIEF MENTION. General Ruiz Sandoval is leading an army of revolutionists through the north- ern part of Mexico and has caused great excitement in the Mexican states. Frederick Fitzsimmons, the escaped murderer of Detective Gilkinson, was seen in Hazleton in company with a compan- ion. Eiforts were made to arrest the des- perado, but be effected his escape. Detect- ives and officers at once started in pursuit.

Five persons, three men, a. woman and I child were drowned by the capsizing of Nb?“ on the Hudson, near Low Point, Advices from British Columbia place the total catch of seal taken in Behring sea this season by Canadian vessels at 12,000 against 18,000 skins last year.
