[Special Telegram t o t h e G-lobe-1 Lotrtsvu/LK, fcjept. !i'J.—The stories of yellow fever here are entirely disproved by the num- ber of country people here, the total want of excitement and the fact that all are pursuing their usual avocations and nobody is anxious to move away.

Morley, of Boston, who came here some weeks ago and opened a store under the City hotel for the sale of Dr. Morley's English remedy, said t o b e a sure cure for fever of every kind, died at !) A.

M. in the canons of the Fam- ished Woman's fork. Lieut. Col. W. H. Lewis, Nineteenth infantry, and three men wounded. We got one dead Indian, seventeen dead saddle ponies and sixty-two head of stock. We were prevented by darkness from following u p o u r success. I followed the trail this morning to this point, from which I de- tach Lieutenant Gardner and Surgeon Davis with twenty-five cavalrymen to escort Lewis and two wounded men to Wallace. Tho Indians, I think, will croef the railroad about Sheridan station. I will be qn the line of the railroad on their trail some time to-morrow, unless they again lay in wait for us. The whole outfit is together, I think, and will prob- ably cross the railroad to-night. If possible, send Dr. r>avis or a substitute to me with the detail that takes Col. Lewis to Wallace. I pull out on the trail immediately. (Signed) CLABENCE MAUCH, Captain Fourth Infantry, Commanding. Also the following from Lieut.

Gardner de- scribes his light. I now know where the In- dians are and can begin to operate intelligent- ly. Prospects good for capturing tho Indians. Col. Dodge's command must be in close prox- imity to them. He will move at daylight for them. Dalles' command is thirty-five miles south of this place, but has been ordered back. (Signed) JEFF C.

Enthusiastic Reception of Condon and Melady After Eleven Years of Confine- ment i n a n English Prison—A Substan- tial Purse Being Raised for the Exiles. NEWYOKK, Sept. 29.—The released Fenian prisoners, Edward O'Meagher Condon and Patrick Melady, arrived to-day on board the steamer Mosel. The reception committee, among whom were Col. Richard S. Burke, Gen. Barke, O'Donovan Rossa and Capt. Ahr, and many oth«rs, assembled en board tho revenue cutter Sherman, which was given them for the occasion by the government, and proceeded down the bay to meet the released patriots. They took them on board at the quarantine, and a scene of the most stirring character took place. The exiles were warmly embraced by their fellow-countrymen who had assembled to welcome them to America. Both Condon and Melady looked wonderfully strong and healthy, considering their recent release after an im- prisonment of eleven long years. They were delighted beyond measure at the cordial recep- tion which was granted to them. They were soon landed at the Battery and thence con- veyed in carriages to Sweeny's hotel. The news of their arrival spread and throughout the day the hotel was thronged with persons desirous of grasping the hands of the exiles. OChe committee of Nationalists, through Michael Darett, preseuted them with a long ad- dress of welcome, which naid: In behalf of the Irish Nationalists we con- gratulate you on your release from British prisons and welcome you to New York. In the dock your manly bearing reflected credit on the cause. In prison your conduct was marked by dignity, good sense and courage. We feel proud to acknowledge you as men deserving of ttie respect and sympathy of your countrymen. You have been made the victims of special vengeance and malignity, and for eleven weary years you have suffered mental and physical tortures in English prisons and have been classed with the vilest criminals to make you feel disgraced as Irishmen. We enter our protest against the attempt to degrade patriotism into a crime. Both Mr. Condon and Mr. Melady made a brief address, and returned their cordial and heartfelt thanks. Another address was then presented to the exiles by the Philadelphia Celtic society, through Mr. Rowe, and it extended ten thou- sand welcomes to the exiles, whose exalted and beroic action in the stronghold of the arch enemy deserves the highest commendation of the present and future generations. No publio demonstration or parade will be given, but h substantial purse is being made up for tba patriots. f- • i The Weather To-Dny. / WASHINGTON, Sept. 30, 1 A. M.—Indications for Tennessee and Ohio, lake region, upper Mis- sissippi and lower Missouri valleys: Southeast winds, falling barometer', warmer, partly cloudy weather, followed in the lower Missouri valley by cooler westerly winds and rising barometer. ,• - A Fine View BOSTON, Sept. 29.—A dispatch from Mount Washington says the temperature this morn- ing- was 14 degrees above zero. The view was the finest of the season. "Vessels in the At- lantic could be seen with the naked eye. Friends' Annual Meeting. RICHMOND, Ind., Sept. 29.—Thirty thousand people attended divine service of the Indiana yearly meeting of the orthodox society of Friends, of this city, to-day. Several promi- nent English ministers were present. JPZe»**j/ to ZVzfce the JZ-lsTc. |Faribault Republican.! The GLOBE sounds a warning against the new capitol extension. It claims that the upper floor upon which the Representative chamber will be located, is so poorly sup- ported that it will be likely to break down with a crowd, and it is a " cheap, shabby job." Notwithstanding this warning, it may be presumed thejo will be plenty of candidates who will be willing to take the risk for next winter. LE BUG'S PLAINT. INSIDE HISTORY OF HIS PRESIDEN- TIAL MANAGEMENT. Gross Injustice Done H i m I n Torturing a Humorous Remark into Opposition to Foreign Immigration—The Little Un- pleasantness o f t h e Great J a u n t D u e to Wm. Henry Smith—Success of the Corn Stalk Sugar Experiment—Miscellaneous Washington Notes. ' f IX DTJO'fl PLAINTS. . [Special Telegram to the Globe. | WASHINGTON, Sept. 29.—Gen. Le Due, com- missioner of agriculture, gets fully bis share of notice in the papers here. This forenoon he appeared t o b e burdened down with grievances, and has endeavored to unload himself at one undertaking. In the first place, in an inter- view in. the Simday Kepublic, he denies the re- port that in Chicago he expressed hostility to immigration. The explanation in substance is, that at the Grand Pacific, in conversation with Mr. Peterson, LeDuc used, in effect, the follow- ing language: "The Swedish people have brought to the country large heads, strong bodies, all of you educated and worthy descendants of old Vikings, but don't you think there ought to be a limit—don't you think it is time we begun to consider whether we are going to have farms enough for ourselves and children?" And then, i n a bantering way, he said: "How many are we going to have here 100 years from now? The frontier line is the line of safety. As long as we have that, the poor and destitute of our own country can find em- ployment i£ they have knowledge enough to go out there, but if all the population of Eu- rope comeb oyer here it will crowd our children out." This was all that was said, and that was said in a humorous way while they sat talking and smoking. One of the listeners who had at- tempted unsuccessfully to attach himself to the President, went off an d wrote up an exag- gerated account. In the next place Le Duo bitterly denies that he was sent home by the President during the Minnesota trip. The whole trouble grew out of Wm. Henry Smith's presence on the trip, Le Due says he had never heard of Smith before that time, and even then sup- posed he was some aged newspaper person -wholly unconnected with the lofty regions of public life. He says Smich interfered with his business and made life a burden to him. The only really pleasant time he had was at Hastings, his old home. He explains how he came t o g o back to Washington by saying when t h e e x - eursion branched off to go through Wisconsin, he did not feel that he had any right to incur such extraordinary expenses. This State Fair association had agreed to pay expenses, and he did not feel warranted to run too heavy a bill. This was the reason of his early return. COBN STALK SUGAR. Lastly Le Due's corn stalk sugar experiments are published. Prof. Collier, chemist of the agricultural department, has concluded h\& ex- periments and makes them public. Additional to the statement telegraphed by the Associated Press last night, it xn&y he stated tniit ~*out of 23,000 pounds of corn stalks, 781 pounds of very good crystalized sugar has been made. With better machinery the yield of sugar would have been at least 1,150 pounds. To the practical question whether experiments would make certain farmers profitably make sugar from corn stalk and sorghum, Prof. Collier is of opinion that another year's ex- perience is necessary before the ques- tion can be fully decided. He says, however, if under contrary circumstanoes sugar could be made at fair profit it would be im- mensely profitable with improved appliances. Le Due is much more enthusiastic than Prof. Collier. He has received numbers of letters from practical farmerrin Minnesota, who have been engaged in making sugar for two years from amber sorghum, and he states that they make from fifty to one hundred dollars per acre on them in their crop. He is confident that the making of sugar from corn stalk and sorghum will be permanent and profitable in the northern States. He also thinks the introduc- tion of a new kind of sorp&am in the Soutn will tend to supplant regular sugar cane, the management of which is very expensive and the crop uncertain. INTERNAL BEVENDE EXAMINATION. [Western Associated Press.J WASHIXGTON, Sept. 29--—A. circular just issued. by the commissioner of internal revenue has for its object the perfection of the system of examination of internal revenue officers' books and accounts throughout the country by agents of the revenue bureau, and hereafter the de- partment will change the examining agent in each district once in every th/ee months. New forms are being prepared for examining of collectors' deputies, store- keepers and other officers of that branch of the service, and full instructions will be given in regard to the examination of distilleries, breweries and tobacco manufactories, it having beea found that the service is greatly benefited by frequent examinations. CAMERON'S PET. Russell Everitt, a member of^ the present House of Representatives from Pittsburgh, is urjed for the position of chief of the bureau of engraving and printing by Senator Cameron and others. SUPPLIES FOR DESTITUTE POINTS. WASHINGTON, Sept. 29.—Ex-Gov. Shepherd and John T. Mitchell, Esq., who left here last night for St. Louis, take with them fifty pack- ages of various goods and $1,500 in cash, with which to begin a cargo of supplies for the suf- fering people along the line of the Mississippi river who are cut off from railroad communi- cation and in great need of assistance. Mr. Stillson Hutchins, formerly of St. Louis, has sent advices to D. Pitt BoWland, chairman of the St. Louis Belief committee; George Barr, president of the St. Louis cham- ber of commerce, and John B. Mande, a prominent merchant there, of the object of Gov. Shepherd and Mr. Mitchell's visit, and i t i s hoped that a full steamboat load can be shipped by Thursday of this week, through the co-operation of the St. Louis com- missioners and other bodies that have agreed to contribute. Movements of Steamships. SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 29.—Arrived: Steam- ships Harvey Mills, Thomas Dana, H. B. Gregory, H. John, New York, Brown Bros., Boston, Astona, Baltimore, Palestine, Glory of Seas, Wm. H. Marcy, British ship Mitredale, Liverpool. LONDON, Sept. 29.—Steamships City of Ber- lin, France and Welland from New York. NEW YORE, Sept. 29.—Arrived: Steamships Mosel from Bremen; City of Richmond from Liverpool. The gesrtlemen. composing the celehxated. team of Australian cricket players arrived on the steamship City of Richmond. Military Service Institution. NEW YORK, Sept. 28.—A numerously attended meeting of army officers -was held a t t h e army building this afternoon, and the report of the committee appointed at a previous meeting acted on in regard to the establishment of a military service institution, to bo located in New York. The annual meetings will be held every January. The institution will be entirely of army officers and West Point professsrs, who may assume membership without ballot on payment of an entrance fee* The design is professional unity and improvement by corre- spondence, discussion, the reading and publica- tion of papers, and generally the promotion of the interests of the United States army. A journal of transactions i s t o b e published for free distribution to members. The President of the United States, secretary of war, general and lieutenant general of the United States army are to be honorary members. Future meetings will be held to perfect the organiza- ion. , - * FOREIGNilNEWS.- The last Herzecovinian Stronghold Sur- renders—'Withdrawal of Austrian Troops From Bosnia—Concentration of Albani- an Insurgents—-Miscellaneous. , THE GREEK QUESTION. : ROME, Sept. 29.—A dispatch to Courier & Italia from Athens, states England is at present in communication with the powers, "with a view of attempting a settlement o f t h e Greek question on the basis suggested by Midbat Pasha, whereby Greece would receive the island of Crete, but a third less territory on the main land than proposed by congress. LONDON, Sept. 29.—Midhat Pasha has arrived in Canea Crete. Qteen Victoria and the Prince of Wales have transKutted letters to others through Hobart Pasha, favoring a moderate conciliatory arrangement between Greece and the_ Porte. Russia has promised to support the claims of Greece in the adjustment o f t h e frontier question. ANOTHER BOSNIAN TOWN SURRENDERS. VIENNA, Sept. 29.—The Duke of Wurtem- bnrg telegraphs that Leone surrendered Satur- day morning, after the place was completely invested. It was bombarded by thirty-eigbt guns which greatly damaged the fortifications. The Turkish quarter was besieged and the in- surgents made several unsuccessful attempts to break out. NOTHING TO DO WITH IT. ST. PETERSBURG, Sept. 29.—It is ofiicially de- nied that Russia had anything to do with the ameer's rejection of the British mission. It is stated in official quarters that the conjec- tures of the English press to that effect are merely the outcome of the antagonism existing during the late war, when it was admitted in consequence of reports that England was at- tempting to create difficulties in Bokaria and elsewhere, that Russia took various measures and contemplated several erpeditions to recon- noitre the neighboring territories, which, how- ever, were countermanded at the first s i g n of the congress resulting in peace. COTTON 8UPPLY. MANCHESTER, Sept. 28.—The Guardians' com- mercial article says: ,v In consequence of the excessive supply and. deficient demand the cot- ton market is again dull and lifeless. The declaration of actual stock of cotton at Liver- pool has not been received with universal con- fidence. Many are of the opinion that there is good ground for belief that the supply of America is larger than was returned." RETURN OF TROOPS. VIENNA, Sept. 29.—Gen. Philippovich, reply- ing to an enquiry from the war department, states that three divisions can be recalled from Bosnia by the end of October. The reserve force of the corps of observation will also be f urloughed, and a numbey of horses sent home. ALBANIANS CON<JENTRATTNG. A dispatch from Belgrade says the Albanians are concentrating on the jiletrovitza and Salon- ica railroad, and are moving slowly but appar- ently with a definite purpose toward the Bos- nian frontier. '•':* ••-> . -. STBOKOHOID SOTEENDEEED. Gen. Jovenrich telegraphs that on Saturday, after five days violent bombardment, Klobuk, the last refuge of the Hewegovinian insurgents, surrendered, having made a brave defense. The destruction of the fortified rock was immedi- ately commenced. The Austrian loss was tri- flingr. ' PRUSSIAN DIET. LONDON, Sept. 29.—A dispatch from Berlin announces that the Emperor William intends to open the Prussian diet in person next month. THE AFGHAN TROUBLE. LONDON, Sept. 29.—Telegraphic dispatches from India leave little room for hope that the Afghan difficulty will be arranged peaceably. The government is hastening on military prep- arations. Troops are heiug collected, from all sides and sent to various points on the north- west frontier of India. DEAD. LONDON, Sept. 29.—Gen. Sir Thomas Middle- ton Biddulph, keeper of the Queen's privy purse, died yesterday. He had been connected with the Queen's household for twenty-seven years. • BETROTHED. THE HAGUE, Sept. 29.—Intelligence has been received from Waldeck that the King of the Netherlands was betrothed to-day to the Prin- cess Emma of Waldeck. A correspondent at Calcutta telegraphs as follows: "The government will make Tahore their headquarteis for the winter, and will not return to Calcutta. The foreign office has re- ceived orders from the canip at Tahore. This looks as if the viceroy entertained no hopes of peace. The government is anxious to avoid acting harshly. The Ameer had still the choice of submission open to him. In any event I doubt whother an attempt to invade Afghanistan o n a large scale will be made till spring. Accurate information re- garding the Ameer's strength is wanting, but it is known he has a well-equipped standing army after the European models, besides irreg- ular levies. The most difficult question to be encountered is the possible 1 attitude of the bor- der tribes. The faintest mistake in tact or error in judgment might excite a blaze of war- fare along the whole frontier of 800 miles. It is estimated these tribes can easily turn out 100,000 fighting men. HUNGARIAN PROTEST. PESTH, Sept. 29.—The Hungarian Radicals held a mass meeting here to-day to protest against the occupation of Bosnia. Deputies Welfy and. Simonye, the leaders of the movement, and many members of the Hungarian diet were present at the meeting, which was largely attended. Resolutions were unanimously adopted declaring that the occupation of Bosnia by Austria is fa- tal to the Herzegovinian nationality, and pro- testing against the sacrifice of blood and money of the Herzegovinians against their wish, and demanding the withdrawal of the army from Bosnia. The resolutions will be forwarded to the ministers, and parliament will be asked to pass a vote of want of confidence in the cabi- net. POOLING POLITICS. Washburn Alarmed. [Delano Eagle.] If signs do not all deceive, Mr. Donnelly will get more Republican votes in this county, and perhaps all over the district than it was first thought lie would, and if we mis- take not, Mr. Washburn and friends are somewhat alarmed and show signs or indica- tions of intending to inaugurate a vigorous campaign. It would be a grand spectacle, indeed, and the most glorious feat of his life, if Mr. Donnelly would defeat the pine land ring's servant and representative, and ob- literate from the broad part of at least one Washburn, the historical "M. C." Still Unhappy. IGlencoe Register.] The fools in McLeod county are not all dead yet. We hear of a man now and then who wishes to punish somebody for oppos- ing tne Merrill school book bill. Why bless your hearts, gentlemen, yon have got the Merrill law in spite of us. Why don't you get the books, if yott want them, and be happy; nobody is laying a straw in your way. " C ,?

LOUIS, Sept. 28.—The Greenback-Labor party nominated a full city ticket in conven- tion to-night. A resolution was adopted early m the session to put no man in nomination who had ever held office. The ticket is there- fore composed of men entirely new in politics. This rule also applied in their Congressional convention yesterday, and much dissatisfaction has been expressed a t i t to-day. MTDDLKTOWN, N. Y., Sept. 28.—The Green- backers of the Fourteenth district have nom- inated Wm. Voorhees for Congress. CHESTER, Pa., Sept. 28.—The Democratic conferees of the Sixth district to-day nominated Bethel M. Custer for Congress. B E C K E R ' S B R I D E . Nebraska Democrats. LINCOLN, Neb., Sept. 28.—The Democratic State convention was a stormy one throughout, soft money against hard money, the soft money men predominating. Four of the Greenback candidates, all being Democrats, were nominat- ed. The ticket is J. W. Davis for Congress, Greenback; Dr. AJtex. Bear for Congress, short term; J. R. Webster, Governor; F. J. Mead, Lieutenant Governor; Benj. Palmerton, secre- tary of state; E . H . Benton, auditor; S. H. Cummings, treasurer, Greenback; J. S. Mc- Cready, land commissioner; J. H. Calhoun, Greenback, attorney general; S. L. Barrett, superintendent of public instruction; John D. Howe, Greenback, supreme judge. The following platform was adopted, to which the hard money Democrats refuse to subscribe: The Democratic party of Nebraska in con- vention assembled, reaffirm their faith in and devotion to the Union and the constitution with all its amendments, and declare that strict construction, home rule, the supremacy of civ- il over military power, the equality of all citi- zens before the law, liberty of individual ac- tion, unvexed by sumptuary laws, absolute ac- quiscense in the lawfully expressed will of the majority, elections free and untrammeled by governmental direction and control, so far as obedience of the law demands, are essential to the preservation and due administration of a free government. Furthermore be it known that the Democracy of Nebraska is against any and all protective tariffs for the reason that no one industry can be protected except at the expense of all other industries; and for the reason that we desire a perfect commercial freedom wherein w e m a y sell where we can sell the highest and buy where we can buy the lowest. Be it known further, that tho Democracy of Nebraska declares itself unalterably adverse to subsidies to railroads or other private corpora- tions, either in land, money or bonds, by either municipal, county, State or national contribu- tions, for the reason that we have seen and ex- perienced the evils and injustice of such con- tributions for the reason that it robs the many to enrich t h e f e w ; f o r t h e reason that it in- apires the incorporate capital to capture and control the legislatures of the States to elect United States Senators and to corrupt the peo- ple and their representatives; for the reason that in Nebraska corporate capital is endanger- ing popular rights and subverting the popular will. Be it known that wo are against a system of revenue whicii works discrimination in favor of the rich and adverse to the poor. We are for men of moral and mental worth in all public offices, and against professional place-hunters and political jobbers. Everywhere in or out of party we are for honest economy, exactness, strict accountabil- ity in the administration of political affairs, and we denounce the Republican party in this State because it has squandered public lands, because it has robbed the school fund, because it has wasted* the public money in rotten con- tracts for rotten public buildings, and levied a tax of half a million of dollars a year for ten years to enricli favorites axxd feed imbeciles in office. We further arraign the Republican party for the crime of defrauding the nation of a Presi- dent justly elected b y a majority of a quarter of a million of popular votes, and its reckless disregard of the rights and demands of the people in this and other matters involving their best interests. We declare that the commercial and indus- trial stagnation that has so long prevailed throughout the country, and the consequent widespread want and suffering, is due to the pernicious financial legislation of the Republi- can party; and we hereby arraign it for its acts, and charge that by the sweeping change in the measure of value, wholly in tho interest of monied capital by the demonitization of silver and destruction of legal tender paper, it has wrongfully added in effect hundreds of millions of the burden of debt and taxes npon the peo- ple, and the burden has as yet been only par- tially removed by the act of our party in Con- gress by the remonetization of silver. The policy of the Republican party in the contrac- tion of paper currency and holding of gold has increased the value of money and securities and decreased the value of capital designed for productive use. Thus idleness and stagnation instead of industry and prosperity have been fostered. As measures of relief to the people, we insist that the period of resump- tion shall be postponed beyoud the period of resumption now fixed by law, and that re- sumption shall be as soon as the needs of the country will admit the liberation of the coin in the treasury, removal of all restrictions to the coinage of silver, a n d t h e xe-establisbment of silver as money metal the same as gold, as it was before its fraudulent demonet- ization, the limit of either gold n or silver to be determined by the demand for it, gradual substitution of United States legal tender paper for national bank notes, and its permanent establishment as the sole paper money of the country, with coin for all dues to the government, the amount of each issue to b e s o regulated by legislation or organic law, as to give the people assurance of stability in volume and value; immediate repeal of the national banking act; no further issue of in- terest bearing bonds; no further sale of bondB for purchase of coin for resumption purposes, but gradual extension of the public debt. Our warmest sympathy is extended to labor- ing classes, who have been thrown out of or crippled in their employment by the ruinous financial policy and unjust lecislation of the Republican party, and we pledge the Demo- cratic party t o a renewal of that policy, and a restoration of all the rights thus wrongfully wrested from them upon its ascendancy to power. We depreciate the employment of organized forces in the country except to execute law and maintain the public peace. No violence should be countenanced to obtain redress for any al- leged grievance, but should be repressed at any cost, and redress sought and secured by legal methods. A Sensational Romance in Shelby County, Xna. IShelbyville Special to Cincinnati Enquirer.] Daniel Becker, formerly of Sugar Creek township, in this county, and well-known here as a sewing machine agent, has recently figured, conspicuously i n a n effort to launch himself into the stormy seas of matrimony. For a long time he had fixed hiu affections upon Miss Lydia Thompson, daughter of Mrs. Phoebe Thompson, of Edenburg, a pretty young lady of eighteen, summers. The course of true love did n<# run by any means smoothly witli Daniel and his dulcinea, but after much parental and broth- erly opposition he finally succeeded in bring- ing things to a focus. Last Thursday night was set for the mar- riage ceremony, and license having been ob- tained, the wedding supper prepared and the guests assembled, the minister stood by ready to tie the matrimonial knot, when a most startling interruption took place. Charles Thompson, brother of the intended bride, was the disturbing element. That young man rushed in frantically, just as the binding words were about to be spoken, and gave some decided reasons "why this couple should not be pronounced husband and wife." He declared that Daniel Becker, who was about to wed his sis- ter, was not a proper person to be- come to her husband, that he was behind in his accounts to a sewing machine for a large amount, and guilty of various other offenses sufficient to damn any man, and which made him entirely unfit to be the husband of a respectable girl. All this, as may well be imagined, created quite an imposing tableau in the recently gay wedding ohamber. The relatives of the girl insisted on a postponement ui;til the matter could be investigated. Miss Lydia wept and refused to be comforted; Daniel re- belled, and. stood on his dignity, insisting that the show should proceed; but as.one of the brothers had the license in his pocket, and refused to surrender it until the dark clouds were cleared away from the record of his would-be brother-in-law, the lovers were compelled, by force of circumstances, to defer the ceremony for the lime being. The assembled guests were not to be cheated out of their supper, but fell to and enjoyed the good things, wedding o r n o wedding, i n t h e mean tine discussing in amazement the strange turn affairs had taken. Thus ends c h a p t e r first of this story, but chapter second is not less exciting a n d r o - mantic. Shortly after putting a stop to the wedding, as detailed above, Charlie Thomp- son proceeded to Sugar Creek township to investigate Becker's character. After inter- viewing several prominent citizens at Boggs- town and vicinity, tie became convinced that his record was not satisfactory. In fact, most of his suspicions were confirmed, and he beeame more opposed than ever to Beck- er's espousal of his sister. Returning home on Sunday night Becker and the girl were found there, and immediately the irate brother commenced to raise a terriblo racket around the house. The unhappy lover be- coming frightened at the threatening aspect of affairs, jumped out of a second story win- dow, and fled through the darkness to more congenial quarters. Having in tho mean time again got pos- session of his license, Becker took his girl, on Tuesday night, to the Rev. Mr. Huff, who married them. Then they procured a buggy and drove to the residence of James Ewing, iu. Brandywine township, reacbing tbere about 2 o'clock Tuesday. The foregoing facts were obtained from Mr. Becker" this morning in an interview accorded your cor- respondent. Whether there are to be further ugly developments, occasioned by the en- raged brothers, and what steps Mr. Becker will take to vindicate his character, remain to be seen. ADELPHI EXPLOSION. Further Particulars o f t h e Disaster—The Death-Roll Increased to Twelve—Other Disasters and Miscellaneou * Criminal Record. . . . T H E S E C O N D DISTRICT. The Campaign in Iowa. DES MOINES, Sept. 28.—Senator Blaine speaks in Iowa the coming week three times, at Bur- lington Tuesday, Des Moines Wednesday, Du- buque Saturday. Great preparations have been made for bis reception. It is stated by the Democrats here to-day that Hobbs, Democrat, andBreman, Greenbacker, have been withdrawn as candi- dates for Congress in the First district, and Edward Campbell, Jr., chairman of the Demo- cratic State committee, substituted in their place. The committee o f t h e t w o parties have been in session here the most of the week try- ing to arrange a consolidation of the two State tickets but without success so far as the public knows. Matt Carpenter. I Special Telegram to the Globe.! MILWAUKEE, Sept. 29.—Horace Rublee will assume the political editorship of the Wisconsin to-r8brrow. There is a strong revival of the movement to run Matt Carpenter .for Congress againBt Deuster in tbi« district. Many of our leading Republicans are in the movement and propose that if Carpenter shall agree to accept this nomination he shall not be a candidate for Senator, but shall wait two years and then seek an election as successor to Angus Cameron. The Democrats who are opposed to Deuster are strongly urging the arrangement. '5,000 Greenbackera Will Vote for Foehler. 1 Shakopee Argus.] a. As tbe Greenbaokera failed to nominate a candidate for Congress from this district, their vote will be turned over to Henry Poehler. For, between the two candidates, no Greenbacker can hesitate one moment in his choice. Strait is the president o f t h e First National bank of Shakopee, and al- ways baa, and. yet does, urgently, persistent- ly, and bitterly oppose the Greenback doc- trines. Poehler, o n t h e other hand, i s e n - tirely free from any connection with a national bank, atands firmly and squarely upon the Democratic platform, and advo- cates the substitution of national treasury notes for national bank notes. Had the leading men of the Greenback party been present at the recent convention they undoubtedly would have endorsed Mr. Poehler, and presented him to the Green- backers in t h i s ^ s t r i c t as their candidate. It i s t o b e regretted that this convention was not so represented b y t b e leading m e n i n t b e National party of this district, as to render endorsement of Mr. Poehler possible, as it would place him squarely before the voters of that party as their candidate. Yet if the Greenbackers of this district vote consist- ently, they must voted for Henry Poehler— there is no alternative. Let us glance one moment at this acqui- sition to the Democratic vote of this district: In 1876 the total vote for Ignatius Donnelly, who was the Greenback candidate for Con- gress from the Second district, was 2,879. Think what that means. It does not mean 2,879 votes for Poehler this year, but it does mean, at the very least, 5,000 Greenback votes for him next November. We are not exaggerating; there is nothing to be gained by doing so. On election day our statement •will be verified. To every thoughtful person it must, ere this, have become apparent that, in this State, during the past two years, the Greenback doctrines have gained ground, and the Green- backers greatly multiplied. More especially it this the case in the Second Congressional district, owing to the persistent efforts of Mr. Donnelly. We do not expect Mr. Poehler will receive as many Greenback votes as would Ignatius Donnelly, if he was again, a candidate for Congress in this dis- trict. But we do expect, and feel confident, that he will poll full 5,000 Greenback votes in the coming election, and thus be our next representative in Congress. Miscellaneous. WILMINGTON, Sept. 28.—The Greenbackers of New Castle county to-day nominated a full county ticket and appointed a committee to THE ADELPHI DI8A8TEB. ISpecial Telegram to the Globe.J NOBWALK, Conn., Sept. 2D.—Frank Foote, of South Norwalk, who witnessed the explosion of the steamer Adelphi, says: "There was a sound from the boat as though a ten-pounder had been fired. Then he could see men and women going up into the air twenty feet or more and immense pieces of wood were shot toward the shore. Unfastening a skiff he pushed off from the shore. He could see noth- ing but a dense mass of steam and smoke, which completely enveloped the boat. A single shriek broke the stillness. Other cries fol- lowed, and within a moment after the explosion the air was filled with groans, curses and screams of pain and fright. The steam had lifted from the water when Foote and his skiff came along side of the Adelphi. He could not see above the guards, but shuffling, accompanied by piercing cries of agony, were distinctly audible. The crowd were trying to force a passage along the hurricane deck, but some one was holding them in check. Foote rowed aft and found two or three figures clinging to the gangway. He rowed up in the skiff and they dropped into it. One was a man, blood flowing from a gash in the head which the hair concealed, and around his mouth and eyes it had clotted. A strip of raw flesh h u n g ever one of his cheeks and eyes. His eyes were starting with terror The other two were women. Foote rowed them ashore and returned to the Adelphi. The man was Augustus Ackert, steward of the boat. Henry Allen, a Norwalk carpenter, and his son went out on the hurricane behind the wheel house. There was but one vacant camp chair which Mr. Allen took while the son went aft for another. The explosition occurred and Mr. Allen was thrown nearly ashore, a distance estimated to be 150 feet. As wero also Miss Sarah Leonard, of Bridgeport, and G. P. Hyatt, Harlem, whose bodies were found near his under twelve inches of water. At about noon Hyatt had been sitting next to Allen and his wife. He had only a moment before step- ped into the main saloon. A piece of plank carried perpendicularly from the main deck had crashed through the hurricane deck over which he had been sittiug with such force as to tear away the walls of his abdomen. His face was scalded almost beyond recognition. [Western Associated Press.] NonwAtK, Conn., Sept. 29.—There has been another name added to the list of deaths by the Adelphi disaster, that of Theo. W. Raymond, New Canaan, Conn., who died this morning, makiaj; twelve deaths thus far. Sir. Lord and Miss Halpin are still at the City hotel. The attending physician reports both likely to re- cover.

BniDOEPOBT, Sept. 29.—May 12th John Rufus, alias "Stuttering Jack," was murdered in an unoccupied East Bridgeport carriage factory, by Frank E. Bassett, who placed the body in a barrel and drove to Dr. Sanford, of the Yale Medical school, who refused to purchase with- out a certificate from the proper authorities. He then drove to Derby on the west bank of the river, in an unfrequented spot, and rolled the barrel down the embankment into the water. A woman with whom Bassett lived, conversant with the whole matter, becoming dissatisfied with his actions, let drop some re- marks which, being followed up by Chief Marsh, the whole story was brought «ut, and the body recovered to-day.

NEW YOBK, Sept. 29.—Mr. Stephen Callahan, whose family and niece were in the carriage which was smashed on the Atlantic division of the Long Island railroad, Saturday, was at the city hospital all day watching his injured wife and daughter. His little son, Thomas, whose skull was fractured, expired at an early hour this morning. His other two children were at home, but ill from the terrible Bhock they received. Mrs. Callahan is still i n a crit- ical condition, and was only partly conscious to-day. Her head is badly bruised, and it is feared she has received internal injuries. Her daughter, fifteen years of age, will recover. She is suffering painfully from the shock. The coroner has. made arrangements to hold in- quests Wednesday. TENEMENT FIBE.

CWashington Special (Sept. 20) to Chicago Tri- bune.] If the minor officers of the Stale Depart- ment correctly represent the opinions of their snperiorg a trifling circumstance might create trouble between the United States and Mexico. One of the officers of the State De- partment to-day, in conversation with a gen- tleman who bas spent mncli time on the Mexican border, said, referring to the recent information from Mexico, that tbe order to Gen. Ord would not be withdrawn, that our lroops,if there was occasion for it would cross the Rio Grande, and that if they did cross in force they would remain there until they could command a treaty which should result in the permanent restoration of order on the border. Indeed, this under officer intimated that the acquisition of Mexican territory would be-approved at least by some members of the government, and that a war with Mexico in the latter part of the present ad- ministration would not be impossible. The sum of $100,000,000 was spoken of as a price not too small to pay fo • the acquisition of the desired territory. I t i s n o t believed that this under officer represents anybody but himself.

D a n i e l B e c k e r , f o r m e r l y o f S u g a r Creek
township, in this county, and well-known here as a sewing machine agent, has recently figured, c o n s p i c u o u s l y i n a n effort t o l a u n c h himself into the stormy seas of matrimony. For a long time he had fixed hiu affections upon Miss Lydia Thompson, daughter of Mrs. Phoebe Thompson, of Edenburg, a pretty young lady of eighteen, summers. The course of true love did n<# run by any means smoothly witli Daniel and his dulcinea, but after much parental and brotherly opposition he finally succeeded in bringing things to a focus.
Last Thursday night was set for the marriage ceremony, and license having been obtained, the wedding supper prepared and the guests assembled, the minister stood by ready to tie the matrimonial knot, when a most startling interruption took place. Charles Thompson, brother of the intended bride, was the disturbing element. That young man rushed in frantically, just as the binding words were about to be spoken, and gave some decided reasons "why this couple should not be pronounced husband and wife." He declared that Daniel Becker, who was about to wed his sister, was not a proper person to become to her husband, that he was behind in his accounts to a sewing machine for a large amount, and guilty of various other offenses sufficient to damn any man, and which made him entirely unfit to be the husband of a respectable girl. All this, as may well be imagined, created quite an imposing tableau in the recently gay wedding ohamber. The relatives of the girl insisted on a postponement ui;til the matter could be investigated. Miss Lydia w e p t a n d r e f u s e d t o b e c o m f o r t e d ; D a n i e l rebelled, and. s t o o d o n h i s d i g n i t y , i n s i s t i n g that the show should proceed; but as.one of the brothers had the license in his pocket, and refused to surrender it until the dark clouds were cleared away from the record of his would-be brother-in-law, the lovers were c o m p e l l e d , b y force o f c i r c u m s t a n c e s , t o defer the ceremony for the lime being.

N a t i o n a l p a r t y o f t h i s d i s t r i c t , a s to r e n d e r endorsement of Mr. Poehler possible, as it would place him squarely before the voters of that party as their candidate. Yet if the Greenbackers of this district vote consistently, they must voted for Henry Poehler— there is no alternative.
Let us glance one moment at this acquisition to the Democratic vote of this district: In 1876 the total vote for Ignatius Donnelly, who was the Greenback candidate for Congress from the Second district, was 2,879. T h i n k w h a t t h a t m e a n s . I t d o e s n o t m e a n 2,879 votes for Poehler this year, but it does mean, at the very least, 5,000 Greenback votes for him next November. We are not exaggerating; there is nothing to be gained by doing so. On election day our statement •will b e ver i f i ed .
To every thoughtful person it must, ere this, have become apparent that, in this State, during the past two years, the Greenback doctrines have gained ground, and the Green-backers greatly multiplied. More especially it this the case in the Second Congressional district, owing to the persistent efforts of Mr. Donnelly. We do not expect Mr. Poehler will receive as many Greenback votes as would Ignatius Donnelly, if he was again, a c a n d i d a t e f o r C o n g r e s s i n t h i s d i s t r i c t . B u t w e d o e x p e c t , a n d f e e l c o n f i d e n t , that he will poll full 5,000 Greenback votes in the coming election, and thus be our next representative in Congress.

One of the officers of the State Department to-day, in conversation with a gentleman who bas spent mncli time on the Mexican border, said, referring to the recent information from Mexico, that tbe order to Gen. Ord would not be withdrawn, that our lroops,if there was occasion for it would cross the Rio Grande, and that if they did cross in force they would remain there until they could command a treaty which should result in the permanent restoration of order on the border. Indeed, this under officer intimated that the acquisition of Mexican territory w o u l d b e - a p p r o v e d a t l e a s t b y s o m e m e m b e r s of the government, and that a war with Mexico in the latter part of the present administration would not be impossible.
