He Denies That Chairman Jones Dc.
sires His Withdrawal. '

COMING ELECTION IN MAINE.

Texas Republican Convention—Governor
Morton’s Views—Rudolph Patter-
son to Debate With Senator
Tillman of South Carolina.

- v

BATH, Me, Sept. 12.—Arthur Sewall,
the Democratic candidate for the vice pres-
idency, was seen at his residence, and he
gave some important points upon the po-
litical situation. In regard to the tele-
graphic statement quoting ex-Bepresenta-
tive Bynum in Indianapolis as saying
that Chairman Jones has been conducting
a somewhat violent correspondence with
Mr. Sewall in an effort to secure his with-
drawal in order that‘ the Populist nomi-
nee, Watson, might have the field clear,
Mr. Sewall made a complete and emphatic
denial. No such correspondence, he said,
had ever taken place. In regard to the re-
ported statement of Watson at'Denison,
Tex., published yesterday, that the Maine
man would be forced off the ticket and

' that there was albérfect understanding to
that effect betheh‘Eimself and Chairman

Jones, Mr. Sew‘altiidiculed the idea that _

there was any fouiidation for such talk.

He said that there was nothing new in the
, talk; that such things were going around

all the time and that they had no basis.

In reply to a question he said that there
had been absolutely no change in the sit-
uation since his published letter of Sept.
4, in which he said he had not resigned
and did not intend to. In further expla-
nation, he added, “I am the nominee of
the Democratic party, nominated by their.
national convention, and I could not re-
sign honorably now if I wanted to.”

In regard to national politics Mr. Sewall
said that the prospect was more than
“hopeful;” it was, “satisfactory.” He
declined to enter into particulars as to

which states he felt sure would give elec-'

toral votes for Bryan and Sewall, but he
contented himself with the broad state-
ment that the outlook was “satisfactory. ”
In regard to the Maine election he said:
”The Republicans will unquestionably
have a large majority, but I do not attach
any significance to that whatever. This
campaign will turn upon the central west-
ern states. Nobody euros in -» those states
' what the result in Maine will be. They
all know that Vermont and Maine are

. strongly Republican. The Democrats here

have been divided. Everybody knows it
and that it is impossible to get out the
full Democratic vote. The .Eepublicana
have been united and have madeahard
campaign. But I believe that the result
has been wholly discounted in advance
and that it will have no effect whatever
on the national campaign.”

Vermonters at Canton.

CANTON, 0., Sept. 12.—The‘ delegation
of 108 Vermonters who came to tell Major
McKinley aboutthe Republican victory in
the Green Mountain State arrived today
and marched at once to the candidate’s
house. - The delegation was escorted by a
band and a large number of citizens of
Canton, some mounted and some un-
mounted. The Vermont delegation, bear-
ers of good tidings and good cheer for Re-
publicans, were, applauded 'all along the
line of march.’ When they arrived at the
house, Senator Proctor, Governor Wood-
bury, Governor Elect Grout, Congressman
POWers, Lieutenant Governor Mansur and
Lieutenant Governor Elect N. W. 'Fiske,
with the speakers, went into the study to
meet Major McKinley, and the spokesman
was, introduced by Olin Merrill, chairman
of the state committee, in a "very happy
speech.

Major McKinley stepped forward. He
was greeted with a storm of cheers and
made a vigorous speech. , »

The Vermont delegation came on their
own train of five cars. The engine bore
the. national colors and the inscription,
“Ohio to Vermont, 89,000.” Among the
inscriptions on the cars were, “We are
coming, Father William, 40,000 strong,”
“Put Vermont to the front and keep the
lines well closed.”

The Vermont visitors were the recipients
of much cordial kindness on their western
journey and were handsomely entertained
in Cleveland.

\Vatson Attacks Sewall.

ERIE, Kan, Sept. 12.—Thom‘as E. Wat-
son. vice presidential candidate on the
Populist ticket, spoke here to an audience
of 2,000 persons. Referring toSewall’s
candidacy he was exceedingly bitter, say-
ing: “1 will come off the ticket when my
boy gets out and» makes speeches against

’5 me, as Sewall's boy is making speeches

against him. A man who cannot carry
his own family carries no political strength.
Our people would not consent to my com-
ing off the ticket. , The surest way to de-
feat Bryan is to disrupt the silver forces,
and the way to do that is for me to be
driven off the ticket. But I say thatI am
not here to be run off the-ticket. I would
not take an electoral vote that should not

_ be given to Bryan too.” . .

FORT WORTH, Tex., Sept. 12.—The Re-

JUARBZ ALARMED. Q.-

Mexicans Scared. by Rumors of Intended
' Attack on Custom House.

 

 

‘ "EL PASO, Tex., Sept. 12. —-No attempt

has yet been made by Yaquis or insur-

gents on the Juarez custom house. The}

entire town is still under arms, including
four Companies of infantry, one of cavalry
and 100 rurales. The custom house is
carefully guarded by regular troops and
armed clerks. Two troops of the Second

.cavalry arrivezfi from Durango.

The Mexican officers still insist that
they had perfectly reliable information

that a band of 300 fili'busters intended to'

attack their custom house. . Persons on
this side of the river do not take any stock
in the scare. ' '
The commanding officer at Fort Bliss
has been asked by the 'Mexican ofiicers to
send one of his six companies on a scout

' along the American side of the river. The

state rangers were on the Texas lineand
could discover no signs of revolutionists.
Santa Teresa’s friends are standing

' guard around her house under the impres-

sion, they say, that an attempt will be
made to kidnap‘her‘. The river is closely
guarded, and every person crossing to
Juarez is required to give a good account
of himself. Armed men are stationed on
the roofs of business houses. '

Gold Imports Won‘t Cease.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 12,—Trea’sury offi-
cials are not inclined to the belief that the
action of the Bank of England in raising
the discount rate one-half per cent will
necessarily result in a prompt cessation of
gold imports. Gold is always paid by the
Bank of England on demand in exchange
for Bank of England notes, and the only
affect on gold importations, itlis said, can
be the indirect one of tightening the mon-
ey market. . .

. Embezzled [Government Money.

DETROIT, Sept. 12.-.——Charles V. Bryan,
cashier of the Detroit custom house, was
taken into custody, charged with em bezzle—
ment of- the government's money. His
shortage, to which he confesses, is about
$3,600. It was discovered in the course of
the regular annual examination of the
custom house by the treasury agents. Mr.
Bryan tendered his resignation, but he
was ordered removed. - .

THE TRADES summers. _
Reselutlons‘ Adopted at; the Instance or
I . 'PapUr Men‘and Shipbuilders.
EDINBURGH, Sept. 12 -—The trades union
congress at its sitting this morning pnssed
the‘foliowing resolutions, the first two
moved by the delegates of the Paper Mill

Workers of Great Britain and Ireland and.

the third» by the delegates of the Boiler
Makers, km and Steel Ship Builders’ as-
sociation: . ;

“That this ccngress', in order-to make
operative the fair wage and fair hour reso-
lution 'of'the house of commonséFeb‘. 12,
1891—and as a partial remedy for the con-
tinueddepression in the paper and other
trades and want of employment prevail
ing, hereby calls upon the government tc’
insert a clause in all government contracts
providing that the wholeof the paper and
other goods supplied, if obtainable in the
United Kingdom, shall be Of British 01
Irish manufacture or production and in-
structs the parliamentary committee to
take immediate steps for the furtherance of
the object.” ‘ - ‘ ‘

“That this congress is of opinion that,
in order" to prevent foreign paper being
imported and palmed'off, after changing
the Outside wrapper, as home. manufac-
ture, every sheet of foreign paper import-
ed into this country must have a water-
mark which can be seen if the sheet-is
held up ,to the light, showing the'c'oun‘try
it-was made in, and every roll of foreign
paper must have a similar watermark on
at least every square yard. All foreign
envelopes, paper bags, and such like must
be made, of paper which originally had a

'similar watermark on every square yard.”

“That, in the‘opinion of this congress,
the oustOm prevailing in the government
dockyards of putting laborers to do me-
chanim’ work in the construction of he!
majesty’s ships ought to be discontinued,
it being inimical to trades union princi-
ples, as well as beingan evasion and sub-

version of the fair wage resolution passed

by the house of'commons on Feb. 12, 1891.’
We therefore instruct the parliamentary
committee, in conjunction with the trades
affected, to urge upon the government the
necessity of: having trained and practical
shipbuilders to perform their specialwork
in thedockyards on the lines followed in
private establishments where her majesty’s
ships are built, and, failing a satisfactory
reply, that steps 'be taken by the P. C. to
have the question raised in the house of
commons by the labor M. R’s during. the
discussion of the naval estimates in the
ensuing session of parliament.” .
