H. Arnold, J. D. J. Kelley, and Ensign H. M. P. Huse. who escorted Legi¬ time from his palace to the ship under very trying circumstances. Senor Romero, the Mexican minister, says there is no truth in the story that he had been chosen president of the Mexican chamber of deputies; that some one of the same name was intended. Senator Evarts' Health has greatly im¬ proved since he has been in Europe and his eyes are better, though he ia still unable to read. He leaves Paris for Londou, whore he will stay a week before coming to America. The President Has Sioned the Commis¬ sions of George R. Durand, to be a commander in the navy; Geo. P.

Raom, the commissioner of pensions, is engaged today in the preparation of an order which is designed to systematize more com¬ pletely the business of his office. The order will make such a division of the work that j comes to the commissioner that the two deputy commissioners and the chief clerk will be able to relieve the commissioner from a good deal of I 'he business that uow devolves upon hiin. A division of the work was made when Col. Dud¬ ley was commissioner, but it has not been ad¬ hered to, aud at present the two deputies have no well-defined duties. A PRACTICE WHICH WII.L BE STOPPED. A number of cases have been brought to the attention of Gen. Iiauin of claimants who have come a long distance for the purpose of being examined by medical boards in this citv. The commissioner today refused several applicants and stated plainly that he would not encourage the continuance of such practice. In the ilr^t place Gen. Rauni says that the claimant comes here at great expense, aud in the second place to order him for examination before a Wash- ington board is a reflection upon the ability and standing of the local boards tftat have jurisdic¬ tion of the case. If the local boards are not competent or are influenced by pr<juJice or favoritism. Gen. Rautn saya they will be re¬ moved and competent surgeons appointed in their piaces. Gen. Raum finds that this practice has LED TO ORKAT ABUSES. It has resulted in bringing men to this city who aro absolutely penniless. They come to the commissioner and say that they want their pen¬ sions hurried through as rapidly as possible, as they need the money to keep them from starv¬ ing. 1 he only method by which these cases can be expedited is to make them special, and Gen. Kuum thinks that it is better for these men to stay at home and take their turn with the rest. He has not issued an order to this effect, but it is understood that he has reached the conclusion not to order non-residents of the District before the boards in this city for ex¬ amination. Hereafter it is said that onlv resi¬ dents of the District will be ordered before the local boards, and that if claimants come from outside of the city for examination they will be told to go betore the local boards. GIVING UP HOPE. Mr. Brown's Fruitless Trip to Rich¬ mond la Search of His Daughter. The mystery surrounding the disappearance of Belle Brown is no nearer a solution than it has been. Saturday Mr. Brown went to Rich¬ mond in answer to a telegram from the chief of police of that city and saw the girl who was supposed to be his daughter. The cirl in question, the officers state, is the one who called at Mrs. Dyson's house in Norfolk the day after Belle left her home. The officers are also of the opinion that she is the girl who went to Norfolk on the Lady of the Lake on the 10th instant. When Mr. Brown arrived in Richmond and was told that the girl waB in a questionable locality he concluded that she was not Belle and was going to ret irn without seeing her, as he was sure that if Belle was found she would be in good company. He went and looked at the girl, only to find that she was not his daughter. 1 oday Mr. Brown did not even have a theory, and when seen by a Stab reporter he said that he was like a ship at sea without a rudder.

Yesterday afternoon word was sent to the eighth precinct station that the services of an officer were needed at Terrs Cotta, as Michael Claffey was assaultiug his wife. Officer Mark- wood, who had reported from the Electric car stables, was directed to respond, and being well mounted waB soon at the »>lace Cltffey was found with a hatchet in his" hand chasing his wife around the house. The blood was flowing from a wound on the head and she had a bruised eye. As the officer w;is hitching his horse Claffey threatened if ho attempted to arrest him hu would kill him, and he cut at the policeman when he approached. Mr. Mark- wood knows Claffey well aud weut*o the porch to expostulate with him. putting his arm on the porch. Ciuffey struck at him savagely with the weapon, but missed him. Finally he laid the hatchet down, when the offioer threw it out of his reach, aud as ho persisted in his threats to kill the officer and then finish his wife he was placed under arrest. Twice on the road to the statiou he resisted and the officer was obliged to use his club. * Ihia aiternoon in the Police Court Claffey was tried tor the assuult on the officer, aud was fined (30 or ninety days in jaiL A Boy Thief Held for the Grand Jury.

OHIO LIKELY TO 60 REPUBLICAN. Virginia to Witness the Hottest Battle Since the War. THE BASEBALL MEETING IN NEW YORK FIGURING IN OHIO. Uncertain Quantities In the Calculation .Tlie Hott inn on the Result. Special Dispatch to The Kvebiso Stab. Columbia. Ohio, No*. 4. The political campaign in Ohio, so far as the speakers are concerned, is closed. The c itn- pai^n managers on both sidos have done tneir beat and whatever the result may be the de¬ feated p:-.rty cannot hold their state committee responsible. There is a nervous feeling ex¬ isting on both sides, as the uncertain quantities in the contest, which have much to do with the result, cannot be estimated. THE ELEMENT OF DOCBT. The republicans have no means of knowing whether Governor Foraker Will suffer by the scratching process beyond the line of uoisy, disaffected republicans, or whether there is a silent force in every county that will show its opposition to tlie third term by means of the v^st pocket vote. If the entire opposition to the governor has been developed there would i be but little difficulty in predicting to a cer¬ tainty the plurality thatmight be looked for, but under the circumstances a very close estimate oaunot be made. THE DEMOCRATIC CLAIMS. While the democratic committee claim the election of Mr. Campbell it is quite apparent that there is very little certainty about any of their calculations outside of Hamilton and Franklin counties. They claim a full party vote for the democratic ticket and the state on general principles. So tar as can be judged from information at hand it seems quite prot>a- i ble that out-.de of Hamilton and lrankl:n i counties Mr. Lauipbell will be scratched with I quite as uiuch vigor as will Gov. Foraker. With anything like a full vote tlie most coii- ! servative republicans figure out a plura.uy of at least 10,000 lor Foraker. Some const rvative democrats are uow inclined to concede the victory to Foraker by a small plurality of trou. 2.000 to 6.000 aud a republican legislature ou joint ballot. WHAT REPUBLICANS ASSERT. The republican committee claim the election of tlieir state aud legislative ticket by hand¬ some pluralities, and say that their organiza¬ tion is so perfect that it cannot be stampeded whatever may be the tenor ot roorbacks likely to be sprung hereafter. As to organization it is generally conceded that the republicans have a great advantage, and as a rule their estimates have proved far more reliable than those given out by the democratic committee. Ohio i* a republican state, and with anything like a full vote the republicans hive the ad¬ vantage. That they will get out a fairly full vote is probable, us they have the machinery and the means to do the work. THE BETTISO. Foraker is a strong favorite among the sport¬ ing fraternity and premiums are offered. Prop¬ ositions were posted today offering $500 to 4400 on the governor. Some bets have been made $50 to $25 on the governor, and others that he would have 10,000 plurality. F.W.S. THE BASE BALL MEETING. A Momentous Contest Begun Amid Great Excitement. New York, Nov. 4..There was a big gather¬ ing of bU'< ball players at the Fifth avenue hotel this morning. The first official step in the great fight between the brotherhood of base ball players and the national league was about to be taken, and as a consequence all professional ball players were on hand to learn the first particulars. The men who met at noon to discuss the situation composed the grand council of the brotherhood. They were eight in number, James O'Rourke of the New Yorks, Ed Hanlon of the Pittsburgs. Law¬ rence Twitcbell of the Clevelands, George E. Andrews of the Indianapolis, A. A. Irwin of the Washington*, Daniel Brouthcrs of the Bos¬ tons, Fred Pfeffer of the Chicagos and James Fogerty of the l'hiladelphias. It is the annual meeting of the council, and though the delegates are not inclined to speak of what will be doae. it is pretty well known that the advisability of establishing a brother¬ hood league to fight the national one will be the all-absorbing question discussed. Besides the delegates to the convention there were gathered in the corridors of the hotel this morning Manager McGunnigle of the Brooklyns, Manager Burnliam of the Worcesters, John Whitney of Buffalo, John Morrill of Boston, Gen. Arthur Dixwell. Jack Kowe. A1 Johnson of Cleveland. John Ward, the president of the brotherhood: Director Billings of the Boston club, James Gore and a number of others equally well known to tho lovers of the national game. At the close of the_ present base ball season, when the rumor that the brotherhood would figlit the league was first started, the capitalists and managers of the last named organization laughed at the idea and contemptuously termed it a big bluff. It was even boasted that the players would not dare to oppose the league. " Gradually it dawned upon the league magnates that the members of the brotherhood meant business and it was then that lawyers were con¬ sulted as to their position in the trouble. A legal opinion was rendered that assured the league managers that legal proceedings could be instituted against players who violated theii contracts, I'his opinion does not seem to weigh heavily upon the minds of the dele¬ gates this morning, aud it is likely that what¬ ever action will be taken it will be done with¬ out the opinion entering into the auestion. Among the late arrivals were Wood of the Philadelphia. Mike Kelly, Tim Keefe, secretary of the brotherhood council; George Wright, Will Collins of the Athletics, Buck Ewing. Owen Clarke, John Kelly. Roger Conner and Manager l'owers of the Rochcstera. Shortly after 1 o'clock the delegates retired to their room and the meeting was called to order. It is likely that a session of three or four hours will be required for the transaction of busiuess. How it Looks at Alexandria. Special Diajwtch to The Evkxixq Star. Alexandria. Nov. 4..The political combat here deepens and the city committees of both parties are on a "still hunt" for voters, and in this way the most effective work is done. They do not. however, confine themselves to this, but bring the best talent they can get to ad¬ dress the people from the hustings. Senator Blair spoke Saturday night for the republicans and Senator Butler. Hon. John Goode and Hon. Frank Hume will speak, tonight for the demo- crata. There is a rumor among the democrats that a train load of negroes will be voted here early tomorrow and then run off down the road to repeat in several towns. Detectives, under orders of the Richmond democratic committee, are here to watch out for any irregularity of this sort. Tin God* at War. Harttom>, Conn., Nov. 4..Twenty-four of the twenty-eeven officers of the first regiment Connecticut national guard have resigned and the other three are expected to resign ou ac¬ count of Gov.

It is rumored that the governor will refuse to accept the resigna- tion» and will declare the officers dishonorably discharged for conspiracy and lnsubonl 1 nation.

Nov. 4..lhe effort which is being made by the Washington government to es'ab- lish more intimate commercial relations be¬ tween the I nited States and the states of South America has awakened on this side of the Atlantic a new interest in the latter countries. This interest is born partly of a half-detined fear that the efforts of the United State* will be successful and the trade which Europe has built up be diverted to North America. Most of the English newspapers ridicule the possi¬ bility of a combination between North and South America. The total yearlv loreign trade ot South America is estimated at ?T(W.O(i0.two. barely one-tiiih of which is done with the United Slates. It is argued that this conditiou of affairs is maintained not so much on account of the tariff and navigation laws of the Lulled Suites as from the absence of United Slates capital in South America, 'lhe enormous araouut of European capital is pointed to and also the fact that Europe has furnished in the last thirtv years nearly two million settlers in various parts of the country. Despite that most of these sjttiers come from other countries than the British Isles, English capital. English trade and English shipping are supreme in South America, and it is shown that financially and commercially England has au immense stake there. Thus while it is insisted upon that the L nited States has no possible chance of form¬ ing an exclusive customs union with South America the English are somewhat jealous and extremely watchful of the outcome of the Tan- American congress. Every movement of the congress has thus far been reported here. WILKIE COLLINS. The proposed memorial to Wilkie Collins in Westminster is not meeting with general success. Neither the public nor the papers seem to take much interest in the project. It is probable that the plan will be abandoned. JAPS.

PENSION OFFICE METHODS.Commissioner Ratim Proposes to Make

Some Changes In Them.

Gen. Raom, the commissioner of pensions, isengaged today in the preparation of an orderwhich is designed to systematize more com¬pletely the business of his office. The orderwill make such a division of the work that

j comes to the commissioner that the two deputycommissioners and the chief clerk will be ableto relieve the commissioner from a good deal of

I 'he business that uow devolves upon hiin. Adivision of the work was made when Col. Dud¬ley was commissioner, but it has not been ad¬hered to, aud at present the two deputies haveno well-defined duties.

A PRACTICE WHICH WII.L BE STOPPED.A number of cases have been brought to the

attention of Gen. Iiauin of claimants who havecome a long distance for the purpose of beingexamined by medical boards in this citv. Thecommissioner today refused several applicantsand stated plainly that he would not encouragethe continuance of such practice. In the ilr^tplace Gen. Rauni says that the claimant comeshere at great expense, aud in the second placeto order him for examination before a Wash-ington board is a reflection upon the ability andstanding of the local boards tftat have jurisdic¬tion of the case. If the local boards are notcompetent or are influenced by pr<juJice orfavoritism. Gen. Rautn saya they will be re¬moved and competent surgeons appointedin their piaces. Gen. Raum finds that thispractice has

LED TO ORKAT ABUSES.It has resulted in bringing men to this city whoaro absolutely penniless. They come to thecommissioner and say that they want their pen¬sions hurried through as rapidly as possible, asthey need the money to keep them from starv¬ing. 1 he only method by which these casescan be expedited is to make them special, andGen. Kuum thinks that it is better for thesemen to stay at home and take their turn withthe rest. He has not issued an order to thiseffect, but it is understood that he has reachedthe conclusion not to order non-residents of theDistrict before the boards in this city for ex¬amination. Hereafter it is said that onlv resi¬dents of the District will be ordered before thelocal boards, and that if claimants come fromoutside of the city for examination they willbe told to go betore the local boards.

GIVING UP HOPE.

Mr. Brown's Fruitless Trip to Rich¬mond la Search of His Daughter.The mystery surrounding the disappearance

of Belle Brown is no nearer a solution than ithas been. Saturday Mr. Brown went to Rich¬mond in answer to a telegram from the chief ofpolice of that city and saw the girl who was

supposed to be his daughter. The cirl inquestion, the officers state, is the one whocalled at Mrs. Dyson's house in Norfolk theday after Belle left her home. The officers arealso of the opinion that she is the girl whowent to Norfolk on the Lady of the Lake onthe 10th instant. When Mr. Brown arrived inRichmond and was told that the girl waB in aquestionable locality he concluded that shewas not Belle and was going to ret irn withoutseeing her, as he was sure thatif Belle was found she would be ingood company. He went and looked at thegirl, only to find that she was not his daughter.1 oday Mr. Brown did not even have a theory,and when seen by a Stab reporter he said thathe was like a ship at sea without a rudder.

THE DAT BEFORE THE FIGHT

Last Survey of the Political Pros¬pect.

OHIO LIKELY TO 60 REPUBLICAN.

Virginia to Witness the Hottest BattleSince the War.

THE BASEBALL MEETING IN NEW YORK

FIGURING IN OHIO.

Uncertain Quantities In the Calculation.Tlie Hott inn on the Result.

Special Dispatch to The Kvebiso Stab.Columbia. Ohio, No*. 4.

The political campaign in Ohio, so far as thespeakers are concerned, is closed. The c itn-

pai^n managers on both sidos have done tneirbeat and whatever the result may be the de¬feated p:-.rty cannot hold their state committeeresponsible. There is a nervous feeling ex¬

isting on both sides, as the uncertain quantitiesin the contest, which have much to do withthe result, cannot be estimated.

THE ELEMENT OF DOCBT.The republicans have no means of knowing

whether Governor Foraker Will suffer by thescratching process beyond the line of uoisy,disaffected republicans, or whether there is asilent force in every county that will show itsopposition to tlie third term by means of thev^st pocket vote. If the entire opposition tothe governor has been developed there would

i be but little difficulty in predicting to a cer¬tainty the plurality thatmight be looked for, butunder the circumstances a very close estimateoaunot be made.

THE DEMOCRATIC CLAIMS.While the democratic committee claim the

election of Mr. Campbell it is quite apparentthat there is very little certainty about any oftheir calculations outside of Hamilton andFranklin counties. They claim a full partyvote for the democratic ticket and the state ongeneral principles. So tar as can be judgedfrom information at hand it seems quite prot>a-i ble that out-.de of Hamilton and lrankl:n

i counties Mr. Lauipbell will be scratched withI quite as uiuch vigor as will Gov. Foraker.With anything like a full vote tlie most coii-

! servative republicans figure out a plura.uy ofat least 10,000 lor Foraker. Some const rvativedemocrats are uow inclined to concede thevictory to Foraker by a small plurality of trou.2.000 to 6.000 aud a republican legislature oujoint ballot.

WHAT REPUBLICANS ASSERT.The republican committee claim the election

of tlieir state aud legislative ticket by hand¬some pluralities, and say that their organiza¬tion is so perfect that it cannot be stampededwhatever may be the tenor ot roorbacks likelyto be sprung hereafter. As to organization itis generally conceded that the republicans havea great advantage, and as a rule their estimateshave proved far more reliable than those givenout by the democratic committee.Ohio i* a republican state, and with anythinglike a full vote the republicans hive the ad¬

vantage. That they will get out a fairly fullvote is probable, us they have the machineryand the means to do the work.

THE BETTISO.Foraker is a strong favorite among the sport¬

ing fraternity and premiums are offered. Prop¬ositions were posted today offering $500 to 4400on the governor. Some bets have been made$50 to $25 on the governor, and others that hewould have 10,000 plurality. F.W.S.

THE BASE BALL MEETING.AMomentous Contest Begun Amid Great

Excitement.

New York, Nov. 4..There was a big gather¬ing of bU'< ball players at the Fifth avenuehotel this morning. The first official step inthe great fight between the brotherhood ofbase ball players and the national league wasabout to be taken, and as a consequence allprofessional ball players were on hand tolearn the first particulars. The men who metat noon to discuss the situation composedthe grand council of the brotherhood. Theywere eight in number, James O'Rourke of theNew Yorks, Ed Hanlon of the Pittsburgs. Law¬rence Twitcbell of the Clevelands, George E.Andrews of the Indianapolis, A. A. Irwin ofthe Washington*, Daniel Brouthcrs of the Bos¬tons, Fred Pfeffer of the Chicagos and JamesFogerty of the l'hiladelphias.It is the annual meeting of the council, andthough the delegates are not inclined to speakof what will be doae. it is pretty well knownthat the advisability of establishing a brother¬hood league to fight the national one will bethe all-absorbing question discussed. Besidesthe delegates to the convention therewere gathered in the corridors ofthe hotel this morning Manager McGunnigleof the Brooklyns, Manager Burnliam of theWorcesters, John Whitney of Buffalo, JohnMorrill of Boston, Gen. Arthur Dixwell. JackKowe. A1 Johnson of Cleveland. John Ward,the president of the brotherhood: DirectorBillings of the Boston club, James Gore and anumber of others equally well known to tholovers of the national game.At the close of the_ present base ball season,

when the rumor that the brotherhood wouldfiglit the league was first started, the capitalistsand managers of the last named organizationlaughed at the idea and contemptuouslytermed it a big bluff. It was even boasted thatthe players would not dare to oppose theleague.

"

Gradually it dawned upon the leaguemagnates that the members of thebrotherhood meant business and itwas then that lawyers were con¬sulted as to their position in the trouble. Alegal opinion was rendered that assured theleague managers that legal proceedings couldbe instituted against players who violatedtheii contracts, I'his opinion does not seemto weigh heavily upon the minds of the dele¬gates this morning, aud it is likely that what¬ever action will be taken it will be done with¬out the opinion entering into the auestion.Among the late arrivals were Wood of the

Philadelphia. Mike Kelly, Tim Keefe, secretaryof the brotherhood council; George Wright,Will Collins of the Athletics, Buck Ewing.Owen Clarke, John Kelly. Roger Conner andManager l'owers of the Rochcstera.Shortly after 1 o'clock the delegates retired to

their room and the meeting was called to order.It is likely that a session of three or four hourswill be required for the transaction of busiuess.

How it Looks at Alexandria.Special Diajwtch to The Evkxixq Star.Alexandria. Nov. 4..The political combat

here deepens and the city committees of bothparties are on a "still hunt" for voters, and inthis way the most effective work is done. Theydo not. however, confine themselves to this,but bring the best talent they can get to ad¬dress the people from the hustings. SenatorBlair spoke Saturday night for the republicansand Senator Butler. Hon. John Goode and Hon.Frank Hume will speak, tonight for the demo-crata.There is a rumor among the democrats that

a train load of negroes will be voted here earlytomorrow and then run off down the road torepeat in several towns. Detectives, underorders of the Richmond democratic committee,are here to watch out for any irregularity ofthis sort.

Tin God* at War.Harttom>, Conn., Nov. 4..Twenty-four of

the twenty-eeven officers of the first regimentConnecticut national guard have resigned andthe other three are expected to resign ou ac¬count of Gov. Bnlkely having rented the regt-meutal armory for polo. It is rumored thatthe governor will refuse to accept the resigna-tion» and will declare the officers dishonorablydischarged for conspiracy and lnsubonl 1 nation.

. GREAT OKI I AIN WAR1IKL.of Our Inlluc.icc on South

Aiiicrlcan Trade.

London. Nov. 4..lhe effort which is beingmade by the Washington government to es'ab-lish more intimate commercial relations be¬tween the I nited States and the states of SouthAmerica has awakened on this side of theAtlantic a new interest in the latter countries.This interest is born partly of a half-detinedfear that the efforts of the United State* willbe successful and the trade which Europe hasbuilt up be diverted to North America. Mostof the English newspapers ridicule the possi¬bility of a combination between North andSouth America. The total yearlv loreign tradeot South America is estimated at ?T(W.O(i0.two.barely one-tiiih of which is done with the UnitedSlates. It is argued that this conditiou of affairsis maintained not so much on account of thetariff and navigation laws of the Lulled Suitesas from the absence of United Slates capital inSouth America, 'lhe enormous araouut ofEuropean capital is pointed to and also the factthat Europe has furnished in the last thirtvyears nearly two million settlers in variousparts of the country. Despite that most ofthese sjttiers come from other countries thanthe British Isles, English capital. English tradeand English shipping are supreme in SouthAmerica, and it is shown that financially andcommercially England has au immense stakethere. Thus while it is insisted upon that theL nited States has no possible chance of form¬ing an exclusive customs union with SouthAmerica the English are somewhat jealous andextremely watchful of the outcome of the Tan-American congress. Every movement of thecongress has thus far been reported here.

WILKIE COLLINS.The proposed memorial to Wilkie Collins in

Westminster is not meeting with generalsuccess. Neither the public nor the papersseem to take much interest in the project. Itis probable that the plan will be abandoned.

JAPS.Tto high Japanese police officials have just

arrived in London, Mr. Sansuke Hayashi, pub¬lic prosecutor and chief police secretary, andMr. Meri Yoshianiatsee, chief of the foreigndepartment of police. Thtv are making notesof police svstems with a view to introducingimprovements in the Japanese police system.

BBAOLACOB.Mr. Bradlaugh, who is suffering from conges¬

tion of the lungs and who a few days sincesuffered a relapse, is again recovering.

IS CONSTANTINOPLE.Constantinople, Nov. 4..Emperor William
