The Presidency.
ilobert T. Lincoln is the only surviv-
im.r Udlld of Abraham Lincoln, the
Martyr President. He has filled the
important public positions of Cabinet
olliecr and minister to Englhnd with
admitted credit, and it is only natural
that one who bears a name so reveren-
ced by the American people should be
discussed as a presidential possibility.
It has been a matter of surprise in
many sections of the country that the
name of Robert T. Lincoln has not
been seriously pressed upon the Repub-
lican Conventions of later years for the
Presidential nomination, as it is every-
whereconcededthatho is much more
than the usual “sonof his father.”
Why he has never been thus pressed
for President is perhaps best explained
by a recent interview he gave on the
subject. In this interview Mr. Lincoln
says: “I can imagine no greater mis-
fortune to befall me than to become
President of the United States,” and in
the same interview he added: “I view
with utter abhorrcnce oven the men.
tion of my name for that high place.”
To these emphatic deliverances he gave
as his reasons for not looking wistfully
to the Presidency, that the President
“is pestered to death” by importunate
place hunters; that he is allowed no
mace, and is compelled to hide him-
self in order to perform his official
duties. ’1‘ is is all very true, but those
who know Mr. Lincoln intimately well,
know that his heart and soul has never
been hauled of the horrible wound of
his father’s martyrdom. He could
lover be‘a happy man occupying,r the
Still. his immortalized father was torn
from in such tragic horror and the
recollection of which‘has ever shadow-
cd in deepest gloom his own life.
These dcliverances from the son of
Abraham Lincoln cxplainwhy he is
unwilling to let the prestige of his
father’s great name aid him to become
a [lilSoiJlC successor to his father’s dis-
tinction as an American President.
l’er contra, Senator Sherman in a re-
cou: iutervicw with open frankness and
manly honesty, said :
“Were I a younger man, I should
again seek the presidency. It is an of-
fice I have longed to fill. To be the
chief magistrate of this republic has
been my dream and bone for almost a
quarter of a century. ” '
Senator Sherman is a rarely able, ox~
pcrieuced, estimable, upright and son-
sible man, buLhis failure to put himself
lll warm touch with the great masses of
the‘ peOple, in the sense that Henry
Clay, Abraham Lincoln and James G.
Blaine were men of the people and
worshiped by the people, honored as is
his name. has made him an impossible
candidate for the Presidency; and he
doubtless now accepts the inevitable
and unavailing, though withunconceal-
ed regrets. , —
President Harrison and Senator Shor-
man are of that class of public men
whom ‘all respect, but while rover-
(encing their names and characters, the
masses do not love and admire'them to
the extent of that idolatry, as notably
they did, Clay, Lincoln and Blaine.

The Ruby Building on Cross Street
Burned to the Ground.
A Valuable Horse Roasted to Death,
About 8:20 o’clock this morning the
altontiori of officers Kenney and Hunt
was attracted up Main street by some-
one crying fire. Officer Hunt but a few
moments before had none 011‘ duty. He
started on a run up Main street where
he met A. A. Martin coming down
street in his bare feet. Martin said
that Ruby’s shop on Cross str set was
on fire, and with . Hunt started to the
engine house and got out the hose
carriage. As they were coming .out of
the door they were joined by Joseph
Healy and the three of them dragged the
machine to the scene of the fire, and
lost no time in getting a. stream on the
blaze.
In the meantime Ofiicer Kenney had
pulled box 15, at H ale’s drug-store and
kept it ringing for fully ten minute 3.
Box 56 at the corner of North avenue
was also pull ed.
The fire department responded quick-
ly and most efficient work in saving
property was done. Hopc hose bo ys
connected their hose with the hydrant
near School street, and connections
were made by the Phoc nix boys to hy-
drants on Cross street and at Hoyt
place.
Assistant Engineer Smith was among
those first at the fire and as it looked
as if all the buildings contiguous to the
Ruby building would take fire he or-
dered out the steamer.
At the point whcr the tire took place
there is a regular cluster of frame
buildings, the center of which was the
C. T. Ruby building which he occupies
as a carriage manufactory. A portion
of the ground floor was used by Job 11
Lycett as a blacksmith-and. horse-s hoe-
ing shop, and yet another part by A.
A. Martin for his express business, and
a stall for his horse.
A large barn close to the east side of
the Ruby building was occupied by W.
Magnet as alivey stablemnd in the rear
was a new barn owned by Hugh Don-
nelly.
Everything in the Ruby building was
burned including eleven wagons and
carriage. making material, a valuable
horse and truck belonging to A A. Mar -
tin besides a truck which Martin had
borrowed while his regular truck was
being repainted. Mr. Lycett also lost
a. number of tools.
Mr. Ruby estimates his loss at $2,500
partially covered by insurance.
Mr. Martin’s loss is about 3500. There
was $100 insurance on his horse.
Mr. Lycett’s loss will p robably foot
up $300. N 0 insurance.
.Eugh Donnelly estimates the damage
to his barn as about $150.
The Magnet barn was damaged per-
haps $100.
That the tire did not eat up a larger
amount of property is entirely due to
the fact that the fire men worked with a
will, and used exce llent judgment in
placing the streams of water. They
were somewhat hampered by the bu rst'
ing of four lengths of hose.
The tire, Mr. ltu‘oy says, was no
doubt incendiary. Tho flames when
first seen by Mrs. Ruby appeared to be
in the southeast corner of the building
and TH close proximity to the Magnet
livery stables. They seemed to be fan-
ned by a light breeze and soon envelop-
ed the entire building.
THE INSURANCE.
There was an insurance of $600 on the
Magner barn. Mr. Ruby had $150 in-
surance on his barn, $200 on shop and
$200 on wagons. There was an insur-
ance of $400 on the Donnelly barn.

TRIED 10 CHOKE HER. 1
Mrs, Max Messmer hasan Exciting
Struggle With a Tramp In BuII~-
' Run Woods.
Her Screams Frightened Him Away;
Mrs. Max Messmer who resides on
the Bull Run‘road, had an encounter
with a tramp yeste‘tday afternoon that
she will long remember, and will carry
the marks of the;man’s fingers on her
throat for some time to come.
Mrs. Messmer, whosc‘ husband is
employed at the Norwalk Lock oom-
pany’s factory at South N orwalk, left;
her home in the afternoon to visit a
neighbor. She was walking quietly
along and had just entered a lonely
piece of woods that borders the road
when a ragged, uncouth tramp emerged
and attacke‘d'her.
The villian grabbed Mrs. Messmer
by the throat and attempted to choke
her. He used both hands and his ut-
most strength in his effort to reduce
her into insensibility. Mrs. Messmer
made a gallant fight and succeeded in
freeing herself from the tramp’s grasp
at the same time yelling at the top of
of her voice for-help.
The screams and superhuman strug-
gle of Mrs. Messmer frightened the
tramp and he left his victim and ran in~
to the woods from whence he came and
has not been seen since.
At the time that Mrs. Messmer suc-
ceeded in breaking the man’s hold on
her throat, she was nearly suffocated
and a few minutes longer this choking
and she would have fallen to the ground
exhausted. .
The police have been notified of the
assault and as Mrs. Messmer obtained a.
good description of her assailant it is to
be hoped that he will be captured and
receive speedy justice at the hands of
the law.

THE .EBELLION Ill CUBA.
Further Reports or the. Successful Landing
of the Cespodes lixuodltion.
'KINGSTON, Jamaica, Oct. 31.——-There
seems little doubt that the two boats con-
taining 31 Cubans and two other boats
having on board 32 cases of arms and am-
munition, which Wore picked up by the
steamship Lnurada, Captain Hughes,
soon after leaving New York on Oct. 21,
and reported on his arrival here yesterday,
composed the expedition headed by Carlos
Manuel Cespodes, which is said to have
left Canada for Cuba about Oct. .‘30. The
Cubans are supposed to have-made their
Way down the coast, or through New

boats which were picked- up by the Laura-
fla. The latter is a. British steamer owned
by J. B. Kerr & Co. of New York.

28. Among the Cubans landed, in addl~
tion to Cespedcs, it is said, are Captain
Jose Lopez, Lieutenant Carlos Aguirre,
Dr. Scrafin Mdrtincz, Ramiro Cespcdos
and a number of others. One version of
the affair has it that more than 100 men
composed the expedition. The cases are
laid to have includedwlnchoster rifles and
about 500,000 rounds of ammunition, bo-
sidos dynamite cartridges and medicines.
Cespodos, the leader of the expedition, is

STILL WATCHING RUSSIA.
English Newspapers Loath to Accept orn-
cial Denials of~a Treaty \Vlth China}.
LONDON, Oct. 31.—The newspapers are
still not inclined to accept as correct the
official statement of the foreign office, and
the subsequent dispatch from the Russian
minister of foreign affairs, denying the
accuracy of The Times and Globe dis-
patches telling of important concessions
alleged to have been obtained by Russia
from China. The Globe. referring to the
foreign office statement, says: “Some-
thing more than an ambiguous official
disclaimer is needed to make us disbelleve
the statements which not only reach us
on good authority, but which are in con-
sonance with the known aim of Russian
diplomacy in the far east. ”
The Westminster Gazette hints that
Japan and Russia understand one another
and that Great Britain ought to prepare
for startling news. “Russia is trying to
or has succeeded in squaring Japan," it
says. “On the side of Japan, Seeing that
she is still alliance free. it is not 1111 rob-
lIblo that there are statesmen at ekyo
such proportals if the Russians approached
discreetly for a Russian-Japanese secret
treaty. What a coup it would be!”
