Ciiu.'Atio, Nov. I. The Herald's Wash- itigton correspondent nends , ' .. , Dig: Iloes I reHident Ciev. the follow- eveland's look upon the recent tidul wave as a call for a third term? Since Tuesday, two of the cabinet officers, one of them in toy hear ing, have suggested the possibility of a third term for Cleveland as the only avenue of escape for the democracy from the Hloiigh of defeat in w hich it now finds itself. Whether these riigitestioiis were made in an echo of the speaker's under standing of how the wind blows at the w hite house, or w hether they were made In more excess of loyalty, is not known. Today a third member of the cabinet, Secretary Morion, in the courseof a con versation on the political situation, made use of words which hud a rather signifi cant sound. "The day of machine poli tics is at an end in this country,"' said the secretary. "The muchine is a fail ure, and in the future we shall have to look to strong individualities for our success." i.i-iliC-n a Frew I'nrt. Coi'Kniiaukn, Nov. S.

The election of Hull, democrat, in the second Missouri congressional district, and of Downing, in the sixteenth Illinois district, give the democrats; two more congressmen than they apparently had yesterday.

Chairman Ilabcock, of the republican congressional campaign committee, today received the following letter from D. 1.

Never in the history of th3 worst days of fraud in Louisiana have they gone so far. The democrats are ad mitting openly that they overdid tho thing, and also openly admit that Meyer, Duck and Fierce will not be seated, but that onr congressmen w ill be. Iludil I.rada, Hut Delayed Ketornl May Change the Total. Sau Fuancinco, Nov. 10. Complete returns from 2,0S4 precincts in a total of 2,274 precincts in California give : F.s tee, 106,000; Budd, 100,7(iG; Budd's plurality, 757. The San Francisco vote, as collected by the local newspapers bureau, which gave Budd a plurality of 11,229, is in cluded in these figures. Counting Budd's plurality in this city 11,703, as claimed by the democratic state central committee, his net plurality in the state at large is 1,234, with 190 precincts to hear from. When asked about the talked-of possibility of a contested elec tion, w ith the decision left to a commit tee of the legislature, Chairman Gould, of the democratic committee, said he had not heard of any such proposal, adding : "I do not think that the republican managers would dare to attempt to de feat the popular will by any such scheme." Dispatches received at democratic headquarter toduy gave Estee's plurality in Humboldt county as 500, instead of (VlO, previously reported, and Sonoma county as 383, instead of 4S3.

There are ! stronif indications that another issue of 'bond will lv. mndi during the coming i week. For some time past the convic tion has t: e:i growing upon the presi j dent that an i."ue of another $50,000,000 would seem to c necessary, and on his ! return from Buzzard's Bay he expressed ! to the members of his cabinet Lis be lief 1 1 1 u t the issue could not long be de layed, and that tho sooner it ws made I the better. He saw the treasury re- Luilttinrincl.in.il' ... r. rv Info n-lll. rn immediate prospect of any favorable change. Secretary Carlisle, it is under stood, took a more cheerful viesv. He argued that the receipts from internal revenue and customs must of a neces sity toon show a marked increase; that the supply of whisky, which was with drawn from bond just previous to the passage of the new tariff act, to avoid the payment of the additional 20 cents per gallon, would very soon be exhaust ed, and that the demands of trade would result in largely-increased revenues from this source. He held that what was I true of the internal revenue was equally true of the customs. Just before the tariff act went into operation the with- il m ti-a 1 i" j" " t rtnesjil rf rrfrAa s.t aearn il n- umnui ii viu , i i KJ k JJAB V4 Ifl.lJ scription was abnormally largo. This supply, he said, had been exhausted, or nearly so, and it was the confident ex pectation of the secretary that the pres ent revival of trade would soon remove any necessity lor further issue of bonds. Up to thid time there had been no signs of any important withdrawals of gold for export, and it was his opinion that the emergency might 1 passed success fully without increasing the public debt. He argued, too, that his experience in placing the last issue had taught him that the issue of another $50,000,000 might fall far short of recouping the gold reserve by that amount. The secretary maintained that it was an easy matter to deposit leal tenders at the subtreas uries and demand gold with which to pay for the bonds. This evasion of the spirit of law authorizing the issue of the bonds was several times detected dur ing the eetttlementa of the last issue, and he feared it might be practiced again. The president, however, thought that all things considered, he preferred not to wait until congress assembled in December, when measures might be taken to obstruct the issue. In his opinion the situation demanded the is sue, and there should be no unnecessary delay in the matter. At the request of the president, Sec retary Carlisle joined him at Woodley this afte.-noon, and at a lute hour had not returned to the city. Persons in a position to know believe that the issue will 1 officially announced before the close of the coming week. Viewing the lead Czar. Moscow, Nov. 12.

Port YIELDS WITHOUT A STRUGGLE 'the American I'nlon Tarty Fleets Candidates in Hawaii, and They l'ator Annexation. The Kt. l.nnla Launched and Christened by Mr. Cleveland. Puiladki.i'iiia, Nov. 12. Shortly after 12 o'clock the magnificent steamship St. Louis, of the American line, was suc cessfully launched at the Cramps' ship yards. The affair was witnessed by fully 50,000 people. Sirs. Cleveland, wife of the president, broke the traditional bottle of champagne ou tho bow of the noble ship es it glided down the ways, at the same time uttering the words, "I christen thee St. Louis." In this in stance and for the first time since the ceremony was observed at the shipyards, the champagne was of American make. All the preparations for the launch had been carefully made, and, although the ship is 120 feet longer than any that ever has been launched, the difficult feat of getting the vessel from fhe ways into tho water was accomplished without a hitch. After the launch, invited guests i 01 J-' H,,n'-' Ctiang wouui tienceiortn tie to the number of 400 were entertained at ! at tI,e rviee of Japan. lunch in the office of the builders. Charles H. Cramp, in a speech of wel come to President Cleveland, Suid that with two exceptions the St. Louis was the largest and most powerful sh!p in the world. He referred to the progress of shipbuilding under President Cleve land's administration, and credited to his policy the fact that such wonderful results had been accomplished in Amer ica. "The St. Louis," he said, "is built on American plans, by American work men and of American material. Twenty sis ships were recommended by Mr. Cleveland and authorized by congress." Concluding, he said that, while there may be honest differences on questions, national approval of Cleveland's vigor ous naval policy would always be unani mous. The toast to President Cleveland waB drunk with cheers, and he made a felic itous response, alluding to the part he had taken in restoring American com merce and building up the navy. The Flection In Hawaii. Victouia, B. C, Nov. 12. The (steam ship Miowera arrived today, bringing advices from Honolulu to November 3, as follows : The election was held October 29th for senators and representatives for the legislature.

Henry P. Baldwin of Mauri stands at the head of the plant ers and is a leader in legislation. He has come out strongly for annexation, notwithstanding his desire as a planter for cheap labor. He believes that if an nexation alxjlishes tho contract labor system it will more than compensate in other ways.

The Japanese legation has not received, up to noon today, official confirmation of the cap tnre of Port Arthur. The legation peo ple say, however, if Port Arthur has fallen, it will be the most disastrous blow China has received. Counselor Stevens, of tho legation, Baid Port Ar thur had been pronounced impregnable by the naval experts of Germany. LI Hung Chang had built there modern gun factories, which rivaled those of Krupps. It is in some respects similar to Brooklyn or Norfolk navy yards, al though three times greater. Moreover Li Hung Chan ha; centered there the pick of tho Chinese army. It is pointed out tho capture, if effected, is mainly important in giving the Japanese a for tification inside of China, from which they cannot hereafter be dislodged. The Japanese soldiers will undoubtedly make the place a depot of operations, and it will also afford a protected shelter for the Japanese fleet.

A Shanghai dis patch says it is reported Port Arthur was taken by the Japanese yesterday without resistance.

Several F.nropean ministers are preparing to leave Peking. A Tokio correspondent gives addition al details of the capture of Talien-Wan. He says six forts on Talien-Wan bay, mounting 80 guns altogether, with all their stores, ammunition, etc., were captured. The enemy was completely routed, and fled panic stricken.
