'REGTMENT or CANDIDATES.

More Than 1,000 Running for Office
in Greater New York.

New York, Oct. 9.—-There are more
than 1,000 persons running for elective
offices in the Greater New York terri-
tory to-day and the returns are not all
in yet. In the 1, 552 election districts in
the territory there are probably 25, 000
men at the present moment who are
devoting their time exclusively to poli-
tics. This is an underestimate, poli-
ticians say, rather than an overesti-
mate. '

It is not possible at the present time
to give the exact figures even in the
matter of candidates. If each party
that is in the field had a candidate for
each oflice to be filled, there would be
almost sixteen hundf-ed candidates
running in the greater city; but as
some pa1 ties indorse the candidates of
other parties, the total number of
actual candidates cannot be compiled at
present. Besides, there aie four days
more for the nomination of independ-
ent candidates so the last of candi-
dates may still be largely increased.

So far, there are seven candidates in
the field for first Mayor of the Greater
New York. The ' Republican party,
Tammany Hall. the Democratic party.
the Citizens’ Union, the Prohibitionists,
the Socialist Labor Party and the No-
Tea-quTiger party. has each its can-
didate. There would be eight candi-
dates, but the Populists have indorsed
Henry George.

 

NAVAL PROGRESS ABROAD.

All the Nations Increasing Their
Power on the Sea.

Washington, Oct. 9.--A full account
of what other nations are doing to-
wards naval development is set forth
in a_ special publication issued to— day

 

by the Office of Naval Intelligence, in

which it is shown that marvelous
strides are being made, even by the
smaller governments, in strengthening
their forces on the sea. There is not
a third-rate power, according to this
publication, which is not making some
effort to build a navy. Much stress is
laid on the advances made by Japan,

" and attention is drawn to her liberal

naval policy, lately decided upon. Italy
is the only one of the more powerful
countries supporting large naval es-
tablishments shown to be making little
progress, and this is accredited to the
depleted conditon of her finances.
Great Britain’s last programme
shows her far in the lead of all other
governments, both in the extent of her

'present programme and in the number

of vessels of all types building, France
being second, Germany third and pos-
sibly Japan next.

New World’s Double Team Record.

Glens Falls, Oct. 9.-——More than three
thousaind persons saw the lowering of
the world’s double-team record by John
R. Gentry and Robert J. from 2.09,
made by them at Belmont Park, to
2.08 yesterday. The track was not so
fast as earlier in the week, owing to
rain. It was fully two seconds slow,
with a cold, fast wind blowing across
the stretches.
a failure, only 2.11 being credited to
them. Driver Bowne seemed to be
afraid to let them out. around the
turns. In the next two attempts Rob-
ert J..:left his feet at the first turn each
time, “but the fourth time they paced
from the start and showed one of the
finest speed exhibitions ever witnessed.
The first quarter was made in .32, the

_half in 1.04%, and the three—quarters

in 1.87%.. Then Bowne turned on the
electricity, and the pair responded
nobly, the last quarter being covered
in .3094, a 2.03 clip. When the time for
the mile, 2.08, was announced, the
crowd went wild.

Th5: Detroit to Watch Fllibusters.

i

Washington, Oct. 9.—Secretary Long
has directed that the cruiser Detroit
be assigned to patrol duty on the Flori-
da coast. Her assignment will in-
crease the nnmber of vessels engaged
in watching filibusters, as she will take
the place of the cruiser Marblehead,
leaving three ships on that service, the
same as last Winter. The dynamite
cruiser Vesusvius will soon relieve an-
other vessel of the patrol fieet, the gun-
boat Nashville.

 

’ loung Women Militia.

Atlanta, Ga., Oct. 9—A movement is
on foot here to obtain admission into
the National Guard of the State for a
company‘of well-drilled‘and disciplined
young women. it was suggested by
their appearance in ‘public last night
for the benefit of a charitable institu-
tion. They acquitted themselves so
well that it was determined to make
an effort to obtain the sanction of the
State to their existence as a corporate
military body.

Kilauea Boiling Up.

Honolulu, Oct. 1.—The smoking lava
in the bed at the bottom of the lake in
the crater of Kilauea has risen over
a hundred feet in eight days, and is
rising twelve feet a day, so that ex-
perts declare the volcano will soon
equal, if not surpass, its previous great
outbursts. When Congressmen Berry
and Loudenslager were at the volcano
a fortnight ago they were surprised to
see a fountain of molten lava 200 feet
in ~height play for an hour or more. ‘

 

Treasury Overruled on Turin.

New York, Oct. 9.—The United States
Board of General Appraisers has over-
ruled the Treasury Department, and
decided that the Dingley Tariff bill did
not cover in its operations the whole
of the dayvupon which it was signed
by President McKinley.

" "THE”N'EXWSIEREEEW

Will Attempt to Pass Some Sort of .1
Currency, Bill.

Vi’ashington, Oct. 9. ~— Republican
Congressmen in Washington say that,
in their opinion, the work of the com-
ing session will be confined to very
few subjects. It is expected that an
attempt will be made to pass through
Congress some sort of a currency bill,
but in view of the opposition to be en-
countered in the Senate, it is doubt-
ful if any bill can be framed which
will be satisfactory to both houses.

Representative Wadsworth thinks
the session will be a short one. Most
of the Congressmen seen do not think
that the session will'last beyond the
middle of June or the first of July.
Owing to the fact that the Congression~
a1 elections will occur one year from
November, it is believed that an at-
tempt will be made to confine legisla-
tion as much as possible to such topics
only as it is absolutely necessary to
touch.

UNCLE SAM WILL ACT.

Recall of Weyler Must Be Hurried,
or Trouble May Ensue.

Washington, Oct. 9.—-A prominent
Cuban of this city, who is in frequent
secret communication with the Junta
in New York, but who, for prudent
reasons, does not care to have his name
appear in print at this critical period,
is authority for the statement that the
Cubans in the United States have rea—
son to believe that if the Spanish‘fGov-
ernment does not hurry up the recall
of Weyler, the influence cf the McKin-
ley Administration will be speedily
exerted to let the civilized world know
that the United States cannot longer
tolerate the barbarous warfare in the
island.

In addition to the butcheries which
are reported from time to time, the
United States, on the score of trade,
will have to interfere. The Cuban
thinks there will be some interesting
developments through the State De-
partment in the course of the next two
weeks.

JOHN R M’PHERSON DEAD.

Former U. S. Senator Expires at Tay-
lor’s Hotel, Jersey City.

John R. McPherson, former Demo-
cratic Senator from New Jersey, died
at 11.30 o’clock last night at Taylor’s
Hotel, Jersey City.

He had been ill since 1892, but his
sickness did not take a serious turn till
last Tuesday. On Friday last, accom-
panied by his trained nurse, C. M.
Beac‘h, who had been with him since
[895, Mr. McPherson went to B'arnega-t,
N. J., to spend Sun-day.

On Monday the Senator was at Lake-
wood and purchased a lot there, intend-
ing to build a house. Upon his return
to Taylor’s. Hotel 'he complained of
pains about the heart and wen-t to bed.
His death is attributed to acute inflam-
mation of the bowels.

WEYLER’S FATE SETTLED.

The Decree Recalling Him to Be
‘ Drawn To-day.

Madrid, Oct. 9.—-The Cabinet. at its
meeting to-day will formulate a decree
recalling Capt. —Gen. Weyler from Cuba
and appointing Gen. Ramon Blanco in
his stead. The decree will give notice
of the appointment of four divisional
commanders.

The Heraldo says-that 20,000 troops
will accompany Gen. Blanco when he
goes to Cuba, in November.

 

Mill for Negroes Only.

Columbia, S. C., Oct. 9.—A contract
0 furnish machinery for a 10,000-Spindle
cotton mill and 250 looms in which no
white person will be permitted to work
except in the capacity of instructor or

idea of having a. cotton mill operated
exclusively by colored labor originated
with W. S. Monteith, a white lawyer of
this city. Mr. Monteith, with his broth-
er, son and nephew as corporators, ob-
tained a. commission for the Eimwood
Manufacturing Company from the Sec-
retary of State. The capital stock of
$100,000 is to be paid in installments. Of
this amount 750 shares of 100 each have
been subscribed for by Columbia
negroes. Mr. Monteith and a few
other business men will take the re-
mainder.

The mill, Mr. Monteith says, will em-
ploy 600 hands.

Brooklyn Short Five Millions.

Brooklyn, Oct. 9.—If statements made
oy Comptroller Fitch's experts are true,
Brooklyn has got into its first trouble
as a borough. They say that its ac-
counts are $5,000,000 short, and that the
books of the Comptroller, George W.
Palmer, and Henry A. Powell, Register
of Arrears, tell stories differing so wide—
ly that they are startling.

The story of the shortage in the ac-
counts of Mr. Adams, former County
Treasurer, amounting to $82, 000, is an
old one, and has. been aired even in
the courts.

 

 

Parker Wants Hawaii Annexed.

San Francisco, Oct. 9.——Samuel Park-
er, of “Honolulu, the richest native

friend of ex-Queen Lil, whose Foreign
Minister he was, has come out-flatly
for annexation. He said in an inter-
view here yesterday that all intelligent
men 'in Hawaii were looking forward
to annexation. He added:

“Of course, as a Hawaiian, I should
have, liked to see the Queen restored,
but, as it now appears to be an utter
impossibility, I wish to put myself on
record as an annexationist.”

9,000 Japanese for Haiwaii.

nese laborers are now on the way here
y from Japanese ports to fill contracts
' on plantations. It is asserted by Japa-
nese in this city that about 9,000 more
will be shipped by Dec. 1. It is said
that if the islands are annexed in De-
cember, under the laws of the United
States the Japanese laborers already
here under contract cannot be forced
to return to their own country upon
the expiration of their contracts, as
has hitherto been the practice under
the laws of the Republic.

 

Hanna Has No Time for a. Debate.

Cleveland, Oct. 9.-Senator Hanna
has announced that he would not ac-
cept Gen. A. T. Warner’s challenge to
a debate

“I shall pay no attention to the so-
called challenge," said the Senator.
“My time- is taken up from now until
the campaign reloses, and I have no

DO IT YOURSELF.

You can tell just as well as a physi-
eian whether your kidneys are dis-
eased or healthy. The way to do' 15 to
take a bottle or glass tumbler, and fill
it with urine. If there' 18 a sediment—-
a powderlike substance—at the bottom
after standing a. day and night, there-
is something wrong with the kidneys.
Another sure sign of disease' 1s a desire
to urinate often, and still another sign
is pain in the back. If urine stains
linen. there“ 15 no doubt that the kid-
neys are afiected.

Any and all diseases of the kidneys,
liver, bladder and of the urinary
sages and constipation of the bowels
are cured by Dr. David Kennedy’s
Favorite Remedy. There is no ques-
tion about its being the beet and surest
medicine 111 the world for such troubles.
It quickly relieves and cures inability
to hold urine, and people, young or old,
who take it are not compelled to get
up a number of times during the night.
For putting an end to that scalding
pain experienced in passing urine,
nothing is so good as Dr. David Ken-
nedy’ 5 Favorite Remedy. It corrects
the bad efiects of whiskey and beer; is
pleasant to the taste, and does not
seem to be medicine at. all. Diseases
of the kidneys and bladder often re-
quire the use of instiuments to push
back the sandy matter so the urine can
be avoided. In such cases Favorite.
Remedy should be taken without fur-
ther delay or the disease may prove
fatal. It 15 sold for one dollar a. bottle
at all drug stores. It is well wo1th
many times its price.

er of the GAZETTE can depend upon the
genuineness of this libe1 :11 offer, and
all suifei ers f1 om kidney troubles
should take advantages of itat once.
