rBEE EVENING GAZETTE '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. o 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. Postmasters Appointed. Washington, Oct. 9.—The following fourth-class postmasters were an- nounced yesterday: New Jersey—Butler, Morris, John W. Stevens. New York — Newkirk, Genessee, Frank A.

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-.first attempt was 4 " "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 time fora!!!

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.
