Results of the Recent Naval Tests at Annapolis. Rumored Corners in Nickel in Anticipation of GoVernment Purchases. Probability of Securing a Home Supply— A Company Organized to Develop a Mine iv Virginia. Bpccial to The Mousing Call. \u25a0Wapuixgtojt, Oct. 24. — Additional results of the recent tests of armor plate at An- napolis are still coming to light. Thedemon- stratiou of the superiority of nickel steel alloy and the immediate appropriation by Congress for the purchase of a quantity of nickel with which to alloy naval steel has had the effect of atimnlating the nickel market to an unusual degree. The Navy Department hardly began to inquire iuto amount of nickel on the market before- it was found that the results of the tests had been seized iipon abroad with remarkable celerity, and that there was to be a keen competition in the market, already noted for a vigorous and steady demand. In addition, there was a uinor of " corners " that was discomforting to too officials who expected to get an adequate supply of metal at fair prices. All of the nickel used here has been produced abroad, Canada bein^ the nearest source of supply. From ln- form.ition coming in an unofficial way to the department it appears, however, that there is a probability that the metal exists in this country in considerable quantities. It is asserted that miues of great value exist in Virginia, although for obvious reasons the persons making Out assertion relu-e to delinitely givo their locality. One company is organizing to develop these mines, so tin; Navy Department officials are hopeful Unit any considerable enhancement of the mar- ket price ol nickel will be mat aud counter- acted by au increased supply from domestic sources.

Interesting Report to the State Department From the United States Consul. Washington, Oct. 24.— Consul Williard sends an interesting report lo the State De- partment on the "Commerce of Guaymas" (Souora). The population, according to the last census, of this consular district (Jkmora) is placed at 150,000, one-fourth of which are Indians (composing tho tribes of the Yaqui, Mayo, Opatus and Punas), most of whom iive in villages and cultivate the soil. The foreign residents are estimated at a littleover 2000, of whom fully half are American citi- zen?, engaged almost exclusively in mining pursuits. The number of Chinese has in- creased during the year; the whole number in the State will not exceed 1per cent, vari- ously employed, but principally In manufac- turing shoes and coarse clothing. At this^ port there are two shoe factories that em- ploy over 100 Chinamen ; none as yet have been brought hero as field laborers or as workmen in mines. The experiment of importing Chinese to work in the mines Is being tried in tiie ad- joining State of Siualoa, and, 1 am informed, with partial success, as they can De used on outside workings, but not underground. I am satisfied by the list of arrivals of China- men at the Captain of the Port's ofliee that none have arrived with the object of mak- ing this district a stepping-stone to enter the United States. The surplus arrivals over departures are accounted for by the addi- tional workmen employed at the shou fac- tories. Chinese emigration is looked upon by thn people generally with disfavor, and would be manifested in a positive manner if a large number were brought here to compete as laborers with the natives of the country. There is a scarcity of laborers complained of throughout the country— on the raurhos or farms and at the mines— but whether this want can be remedied by the importing of Chinamen is something that the future will determine. The war with the Yaqui Indians, who in- habit the valley of that name sixty miles from this port, is about terminated, and ef- forts will be made the coming year to colo- nize the lands of that valley. On the fron- tier of the district and Arizona (United States) there exists a good understanding with the authorities on uuth sides of the boundary line, no questions ol an interna- tional character existing. The orange crop this year is in excess of last year's crop, and the number of boxes exported approximates 20,000, each box con- taiuing from 100 to 250 oranges. Tiny are sent by mil to tho United Slates, principally to Chicagu and Denver. The fruit, as men- tioned iv my iast year's report, commeuces to ripen in November, and is purchased on the tiee by lruit-dealers in tho United States through their agents sent here, who pick, pack and ship them. The price this year for oranges thus soid vuried from $0 to i' 6 (Mex- ican silver; per 1000. Grapes are grown, but no wine or raisins are made for export The same can be said of olives, lemons and figs that are grown for home Cdusumi tiou only, although the soil and climate are favorable for their cultiva- tion. MIXES AND MININGINTEIiKSTS. During the past year several new mining companies have been formed to work gold and silver mines in the State (organized in England and the United States), and Invest- ments, amounting to over $1,500,000, have been made. The amount of silver and gold ores exported during the p;.st year is esti- mated lo be over 5000 tons, the greater part of which was shipped. by rail to smelting and refining works In the United States. During the year two concessions have been granted by the State Government {or the es- tablishment of smelting works in Sonora, with certain privileges and exemption of State taxes for a term of years. This was at the time when duties on lead contained in silver and told ores were being discussed in the United States; but, as this question is considered in a measure settled (lead in the ores of silver and gold not being dutiable when the value of the lend in said ore is less In value than the gold and silver contained in them), the interest in the erection of these smelting and refining works has subsided and they intve nut been constructed. There are no smelting and refining estab- lishments iv Souora where ores are pur- chased, or where small mine-owners can have their ores worked. This circumstance obliges them to either work the ores them- selves or ship them out of the country for that purpose. No copper mines are worked in Sonora, owing to the low price of that metal, and owners of mines of that class have sus- pended all work on them. Veins of iron, antimony and lead, which exist, remain un- developed. - Dining the year cinnabar was discovered about 180 mill8 from Guaymas, in the dis- trict of Ures, and ore has been found yield- ing30 and 50 per cent These deposits are being prospected, and, I am informed, have been bonded to an English company. Tne owners have, by a crude process, extracted twenty ilnsks 01 quicksilver from the ore. These deposits of cinnabar are tne fir»t that have been discovered or worked in this con- sular district. STEAMERS AND SAILING VESSELS. The only line of steamers between this port anil the United States (or of any foreign country) is th%i'acitic Coa>t Steamship Com- puny, one steamer, Nowbern (of 077.74 tous), making montlily voyages from San Fran- cisco to (iiiiiyimts, towelling at the inter- mediate ports of Euse nenda, Magdalena Bay, San Ji.se de! Cabo, and La la/. (or the peninsula of Lower California)) M.i.v. !.m (State of Slnaloa), and Guaymas (State of Sonorii), both going and returning. This 9t- -ainer baa no subsidy from the Mexican Government, but carries the mails free and oilicials of the Govern- ment at half-rates of passage. The palling vessels engaged are lew, and bring, as a rule, cargoes ot lumber from Oregon and California, and their return cargoes are phosphates and gypsum from the islands of the Gulf of California. The Mexican Government, as an induce- ment for their vessels to engage in foreign trade, gives a 2per cent rebate on the duties of goi ds brought from foreign parts under the Mexican Hug. It is satisfactory to note that there has been no decrease in the trade with the United Stales. The imports of the United Slates exceed those of all other nations, and now take the place of those occupied by Europe fifteen yean ago. The commercial facilities of direct railway connection have to some extent brought about this change. To QUote from my last year's report, what is greatly needed to increase our commer- cial intercourse with Mexico is a modifica- tion of the many formalities that hamper the importation of foreign goods under the Mexican Custom-house regulations now in force. We have "no treaty of commerce and navigation" with Mexico, and If it were possible to celebrate one on the principle of a freer and more generous trade intercours3 than now exists the results, no doubt, would be mutually beneficial to the commercial in-, terests of both countries. < \u25a0 _ Gcvirncr Noble's Condition. Nkw Yokk, Oct. 24— It is reported that the condition of ex-Governor Noble of Wis- consin is very critical. Mistook llrr for a Burglar, A few nights ago burglars raided the town of Lansing, Tnmpkins County, H. V., throw- ing tlic inhabitants into a slate of great ex- citement and alarm. Among the affrighted families was that of Samuel Atwater, a well-to-do fanner. They went to bed leav- ing a lamp burning in the parlor to frighten oft the burglars. Along toward morning, but while it was yet dark, Mrs. Atwater, the farmer's wife, got up aud put out the light. Id an adjoining room slept her son- in-law and dauuhler. Air. and Mis. Walter Haven. The son-in-law awoke to hear stealthy steps iii the parlor. He opened the parlor dour, and mistaking a figure dimly seen for a burglar lired at it with his pistol. The bullet struck Sirs. Atwater in the breast and passed clear through her body. She lived long enough to exonerate her son-in- law from iutentiouul wrung, and to beg that he might not be punished.— >'. Y. Herald.

Significant Demonstration in Honor of Markbam. & Memorable Gathering of Residents of the San Joaqain Valley. » Imposing Torch-Light Procession and Two Grand Meetings— A ConibinaiioH of Eloquence and Enthusiasm. Special to The Mobsi.vo Calc» Fresno, Oct. 24. —The largest political gathering ever known in the history of Fresno County was that held in nonor of Colonel Haikham to-night. Nothing to compare with it was ever seen on the streets of this thriving little city, and as a conse- quence Republicans are elated and Demo- crats correspondingly depressed. Two thousand men in line with blazing torches and numerous brass bands, together with the glare of rockets and red fire, made the streets a scene of \u0084'reat animation, while thousands of citizens lined the principal thoroughfares and cheered themselves hoarse in honor of the future Governor and Senator Stanford. The former, with party, left Merced at 10:30 O'clock last night, ar- riving here at 12:30, and in spite of the late- ness of the hour, a large delegation of prominent citizens were on hand to welcome them, and to escort them to the Grand Cen- tral Hotel, when mine In.st Berry had made all arrangements for the comfurt of the dis- tinguished guest. On the arrival at the hotel and after an exchange of greetings, Colonel Markham re- tired to his room and remained until 9 o'clock this morning, when he was called for breakfast, after which the party weredriven through the fruitful vineyards that lie for milrs to the east of the city, and Colonel Markhnni found much to interest him in the great wineries and raisin dryeries which are so numerous here. The party was also taken to inspect the fair grounds, which are amoDg the best in the State. On the return to the hotel the Colonel held an informal re- ception, and the parlors were literally thronged all day with visitors. They came by hundreds, and so great was the rush that the gallant Fasadenan was obliged to forego his lunch and devote the entire day to the callers. Among them were many ladies and a great many prominent Democrats, who showered every attention upon him. It is impossible to esti- mate the number of callers, but (hey must have run into the thousands, as a constant stream flowed in and out of the parlors during the entire afternoon. When the dinner hour arrived the Colonel was com- pelled to resort to a little diplomacy to escape to his room, where he was served, as the dining-room was crowded with those anxious to see him. At 5 o'clock Senator Stanford, accompa- nied by his wife and Thomas Fitch, ar- rived and were taken to the Hughes House, where they were serenaded. As the hour approached for the procession to take up its line of march, the streets along iho route became tilled with a surging llirung of liu- mauity, thousands in number, and enthusi- astic one and all. When Colonel Markliam and company, drawn by four bitick horses and preceded by a band, nud followed by 2OW) eheei ing torch-bearers, moved down the street, it was one long ovation, and the cheers that rang out troiu all sides were deafening in volume. Hats were thrown in the air, while Hags and handkerchiefs were waved oil every Hand to bid a welcome to the honored guests of the city. It was a scene not to be forgotten, and spoke vol- umes for the fealty yof the Republicans of San Joaqiiin Valley, who are all in Hue and ready to make the victory all the morn pro- nounced by piling UP a handsome majority. Armory Hall was packed with 2000 peo- ple when Markham and Stanford arrived, and they were compelled to push their way through a dense throng to reach the stage. Their appearance was the signal for a dem- onstration of will enthusiasm, which was vented in prolonged nnd cyclonic cheers, which were repeated until the very rafters rang again. Not half the people could gain acceas to the hall, and an ovcitlow meeting was held, over which F. U. Short presided, and which was addressed by J. C. Campbell in one of his most convincing and eloquent speeches. He held 1^)0 people for an hour, and was interrupted at every point by vociferous applause. In the hall Markham and Stanford both spuke briefly and each was cheered to the echo, while Thomas Fitch, who followed in one of his old-time eloquent appeals, held the vast audience spell-'oound tor an hour and a half. At the close of the meeting cheer after cheer was given for the Republican ticket, and all went away more convinced than ever oi the certainty of success at the polls. The party leave at 12:30 o'clock to-:iight for Tatars and to-morrow afternoon will visit Visalia. CONGRESSMAN MORUOW AT NAPA. Napa, Oct. 24. — A monster Kepublican meeting wag held in the Napa Opera House this evening, which was addressed by Con- gressman Morrow.

Loud, the Republican candi- date fur Congress from the Fifth District, is meeting with unexampled success in his canvass and his friends aro already con- gratulnting him upon the prospects of his distancing his Democratic opponent in the race. Ihe greatest enthusiasm is mani- fested throughout his district, where he is receiving loyal support from Messrs. Car- rick, Hale and McPherson, rival candi- dates for the nomination. liis popularity among tho voters in his *.wn rjeiuhborhood is also very marked and large numbers of them are working like beavers for his elec- tion, which is considered almost a foregone conclusion. Mr. Loud, who is now in his forty-third year, is a native of Massachusetts, nnd has been a resident oi California for thirty years. He has a military record that lm may well be proud of, fnr in his fifteenth year lie volunteered in his country's defense, went t<i the front with the Secnd Massa- chusetts Cavalry and followed Sheridan's fortunes from Winchester to the close of Iho war. When peace was restored he returned to California, which he had previously maile his adopted home, ana engaged in business in this city. Sinco then he hal been an active member of the Masons, the Worknieu and the Grand Army of the Re- public, and has held high offices in the gift of thfsw organizations. Early in the eighties he held a two years' term in the Treasurer's office, and in 1885 he went to the Legisla- ture with the lamest majority ever given ;i candidate in the Forty-third Assembly Dis- trict. Success, however, made no changes in him, and he is to-day as unostentatious a citizen as he was then, though the glitter- ing prize of a seat in Cougress lies well within his grasp.

Fourteen years ago Gilbert Bell left his Home, wife and five little children, near Yorktown, Indiana, saying he would never return until he was better fixed financially. His wife and children brooded over their loss for three louk years, when one day Mrs. Bell received the sad news that lierhusbund was dead. She accepted what now appears to have been only a report us true, nnd was soon afterward married to William McGriff, a highly respected old friend of her husband, with whom she has since lived and to whom she has born children. Four of th» five children by her first hus- band died during his absence, leaving one daughter, a young lady, etill living with her mother. Friday of last week Mr.Bell called at the home to 9pc his family and found the above state of affairs existing. He did not create a scene, nor did he in the least blame auv one but himself. lie remained with the family until Satur- day, when he bade all good-by and left for New York, where lie was ening on business from his home in the far West.

\u25a0Wapuixgtojt, Oct. 24.—Additional results

of the recent tests of armor plate at An-napolis are still coming to light. Thedemon-stratiou of the superiority of nickel steelalloy and the immediate appropriation byCongress for the purchase ofa quantity ofnickel with which to alloy naval steel hashad the effect of atimnlating the nickelmarket to an unusual degree. The NavyDepartment hardly began to inquire iutoamount of nickel on the market before- itwas found that the results of the tests hadbeen seized iipon abroad with remarkablecelerity, and that there was to be a keencompetition in the market, already noted fora vigorous and steady demand. In addition,there was a uinor of

"corners

"that

was discomforting to too officials whoexpected to get an adequate supply of metalat fair prices. All of the nickel used herehas been produced abroad, Canada bein^the nearest source of supply. From ln-form.ition coming in an unofficial way to

the department it appears, however, thatthere is a probability that the metal exists inthis country in considerable quantities. Itis asserted that miues of great value existin Virginia, although for obvious reasonsthe persons making Out assertion relu-e todelinitely givo their locality. One companyis organizing to develop these mines, so tin;

Navy Department officials are hopeful Unitany considerable enhancement of the mar-ket price ol nickel willbe mat aud counter-acted by au increased supply from domesticsources.

COMMERCE OF GUAYMAS.Interesting Report to the State Department

From the United States Consul.

Washington, Oct. 24.—Consul Williardsends an interesting report lo the State De-partment on the "Commerce of Guaymas"(Souora).

The population, according to the lastcensus, of this consular district (Jkmora) isplaced at 150,000, one-fourth of which areIndians (composing tho tribes of the Yaqui,Mayo, Opatus and Punas), most of whomiive in villages and cultivate the soil. Theforeign residents are estimated at a littleover2000, of whom fully half are American citi-zen?, engaged almost exclusively in miningpursuits. The number of Chinese has in-creased during the year; the whole numberin the State willnot exceed 1per cent, vari-ously employed, but principally Inmanufac-turing shoes and coarse clothing. At this^port there are two shoe factories that em-ploy over 100 Chinamen ;none as yet havebeen brought hero as field laborers or asworkmen in mines.

The experiment of importing Chinese towork in the mines Is being tried in tiie ad-joining State of Siualoa, and, 1am informed,with partial success, as they can De used onoutside workings, but not underground. Iam satisfied by the list of arrivals of China-men at the Captain of the Port's ofliee thatnone have arrived with the object of mak-ing this district a stepping-stone to enter theUnited States. The surplus arrivals overdepartures are accounted for by the addi-tional workmen employed at the shou fac-tories.

Chinese emigration is looked upon by thnpeople generally with disfavor, and wouldbe manifested in a positive manner ifa largenumber were brought here to compete aslaborers with the natives of the country.There is a scarcity of laborers complainedof throughout the country— on the raurhosor farms and at the mines— but whether thiswant can be remedied by the importing ofChinamen is something that the future willdetermine.

The war with the Yaqui Indians, who in-habit the valley of that name sixty milesfrom this port, is about terminated, and ef-forts will be made the coming year to colo-nize the lands of that valley. On the fron-tier of the district and Arizona (UnitedStates) there exists a good understandingwith the authorities on uuth sides of theboundary line, no questions ol an interna-tional character existing.

The orange crop this year is in excess oflast year's crop, and the number of boxesexported approximates 20,000, each box con-taiuing from 100 to 250 oranges. Tiny aresent by mil to tho United Slates, principallyto Chicagu and Denver. The fruit, as men-tioned iv my iast year's report, commeucesto ripen in November, and is purchased onthe tiee by lruit-dealers in tho United Statesthrough their agents sent here, who pick,pack and ship them. The price this year fororanges thus soid vuried from $0 toi'6(Mex-ican silver; per 1000.

Grapes are grown, but no wine or raisinsare made for export The same can be saidof olives, lemons and figs that are grown forhome Cdusumi tiou only, although the soiland climate are favorable for their cultiva-tion.

MIXES ANDMININGINTEIiKSTS.During the past year several new mining

companies have been formed to work goldand silver mines in the State (organized inEngland and the United States), and Invest-ments, amounting to over $1,500,000, havebeen made. The amount of silver and goldores exported during the p;.st year is esti-mated lobe over 5000 tons, the greater partof which was shipped. by rail to smeltingand refining works In the United States.During the year two concessions have beengranted by the State Government {orthe es-tablishment of smelting works in Sonora,with certain privileges and exemption ofState taxes for a term of years. This was atthe time when duties on lead contained insilver and told ores were being discussed inthe United States; but, as this question isconsidered in a measure settled (lead in theores of silver and gold not being dutiablewhen the value of the lend in said ore is lessIn value than the goldand silver containedin them), the interest in the erection of thesesmelting and refining works has subsidedand they intve nut been constructed.

There are no smelting and refining estab-lishments iv Souora where ores are pur-chased, or where small mine-owners canhave their ores worked. This circumstanceobliges them to either work the ores them-selves or ship them out of the country forthat purpose.

No copper mines are worked in Sonora,owing tothe low price of that metal, andowners of mines of that class have sus-pended all work on them. Veins of iron,antimony and lead, which exist, remain un-developed. -

Diningthe year cinnabar was discoveredabout 180 mill8 from Guaymas, in the dis-trict of Ures, and ore has been found yield-ing30 and 50 per cent These deposits arebeing prospected, and, Iam informed, havebeen bonded to an English company. Tneowners have, by a crude process, extractedtwenty ilnsks 01 quicksilver from the ore.These deposits of cinnabar are tne fir»t thathave been discovered or worked in this con-sular district.

STEAMERS AND SAILING VESSELS.The only line of steamers between this

port anil the United States (or of any foreigncountry) is th%i'acitic Coa>t Steamship Com-puny, one steamer, Nowbern (of077.74 tous),making montlily voyages from San Fran-cisco to (iiiiiyimts, towelling at the inter-mediate ports of Euse nenda, MagdalenaBay, San Ji.se de! Cabo, and La la/. (or thepeninsula of Lower California)) M.i.v.!.m(State of Slnaloa), and Guaymas (State ofSonorii), both going and returning. This9t--ainer baa no subsidy from the MexicanGovernment, but carries the mailsfree and oilicials of the Govern-ment at half-rates of passage. Thepalling vessels engaged are lew, and bring,as a rule, cargoes ot lumber from Oregonand California, and their return cargoes arephosphates and gypsum from the islands ofthe Gulf of California.

The Mexican Government, as an induce-ment for their vessels to engage in foreigntrade, gives a 2per cent rebate on the dutiesof goi ds brought from foreign parts underthe Mexican Hug.It is satisfactory to note that there has

been no decrease in the trade with theUnited Stales. The imports of the UnitedSlates exceed those of all other nations, andnow take the place of those occupied byEurope fifteen yean ago. The commercialfacilities of direct railway connection haveto some extent brought about this change.To QUote from my last year's report, whatis greatly needed to increase our commer-cial intercourse with Mexico is a modifica-tion of the many formalities that hamperthe importation of foreign goods under theMexican Custom-house regulations now inforce. We have "no treaty of commerceand navigation" with Mexico, and Ifitwerepossible tocelebrate one on the principle ofa freer and more generous trade intercours3than now exists the results, no doubt, wouldbe mutually beneficial to the commercial in-,terests of both countries. < \u25a0

Imposing Torch-Light Procession and Two

Grand Meetings— A ConibinaiioH of

Eloquence and Enthusiasm.

Special to The Mobsi.vo Calc»

Fresno, Oct. 24. —The largest politicalgathering ever known in the history ofFresno County was that held in nonor ofColonel Haikham to-night. Nothing tocompare with it was ever seen on the streetsof this thriving little city, and as a conse-quence Republicans are elated and Demo-crats correspondingly depressed. Twothousand men in line with blazing torchesand numerous brass bands, together withthe glare of rockets and red fire, made thestreets a scene of \u0084'reat animation, whilethousands of citizens lined the principal

thoroughfares and cheered themselveshoarse in honor of the future Governor andSenator Stanford. The former, with party,

left Merced at 10:30 O'clock last night, ar-

riving here at 12:30, and in spite of the late-ness of the hour, a large delegation ofprominent citizens were on hand to welcomethem, and to escort them to the Grand Cen-tral Hotel, when mine In.stBerry had madeall arrangements for the comfurt of the dis-tinguished guest.

On the arrival at the hotel and after anexchange ofgreetings, Colonel Markham re-tired to his room and remained until 9

o'clock this morning, when he was called forbreakfast, after which the party weredriventhrough the fruitful vineyards that lie formilrs to the east of the city, and ColonelMarkhnni found much to interest him in thegreat wineries and raisin dryeries which areso numerous here. The party was alsotaken to inspect the fairgrounds, which areamoDg the best in the State. On the return

to the hotel the Colonel held an informal re-ception, and the parlors were literallythronged all day with visitors. Theycame by hundreds, and so great wasthe rush that the gallant Fasadenanwas obliged to forego his lunch anddevote the entire day to the callers. Amongthem were many ladies and a great manyprominent Democrats, who showered everyattention upon him. Itis impossible to esti-mate the number of callers, but (hey musthave run into the thousands, as a constantstream flowed in and out of the parlorsduring the entire afternoon. When thedinner hour arrived the Colonel was com-pelled to resort to a little diplomacy toescape to his room, where he was served, asthe dining-room was crowded with thoseanxious to see him.

At5 o'clock Senator Stanford, accompa-nied by his wife and Thomas Fitch, ar-rived and were taken to the Hughes House,where they were serenaded. As the hourapproached for the procession to take up itsline of march, the streets along iho routebecame tilled witha surging llirung of liu-mauity, thousands innumber, and enthusi-astic one and all. When Colonel Markliamand company, drawn by four bitick horsesand preceded by a band, nud followed by2OW) eheei ing torch-bearers, moved down thestreet, it was one long ovation, and thecheers that rang out troiu all sides weredeafening in volume. Hats were thrown inthe air, while Hags and handkerchiefs werewaved oil every Hand to bid a welcome tothe honored guests of the city. It was ascene not to be forgotten, and spoke vol-umes for the fealtyyof the Republicans ofSan Joaqiiin Valley, who are all inHue andready to make the victory all the morn pro-nounced by pilingUP a handsome majority.

Armory Hall was packed with 2000 peo-ple when Markham and Stanford arrived,and they were compelled to push their waythrough a dense throng to reach the stage.Their appearance was the signal for a dem-onstration of willenthusiasm, which wasvented in prolonged nnd cyclonic cheers,which were repeated until the very raftersrang again.

Not half the people could gain acceas tothe hall, and an ovcitlow meeting washeld, over which F. U. Short presided, andwhich was addressed by J. C. Campbell inone of his most convincing and eloquentspeeches. He held 1^)0 people for an hour,and was interrupted at every point byvociferous applause. In the hall Markhamand Stanford both spuke briefly and eachwas cheered to the echo, while ThomasFitch, who followed inone of his old-timeeloquent appeals, held the vast audiencespell-'oound tor an hour and a half. At theclose of the meeting cheer after cheer wasgiven for the Republican ticket, and allwent away more convinced than ever oi thecertainty of success at the polls.

The party leave at 12:30 o'clock to-:iightfor Tatars and to-morrow afternoon willvisit Visalia.
