Tbe names of each of tbe otber candidate were also heartily applauded. Then followed a season of speech staking, in which every one of these gentlemen were etroagly indorsed. Robert B. Kooeevelt was tbe Dnt man to eatcb the eye of tbe presiding officer. As be rose to indorse tbe committee's report be wss cheered and unred to take tbe platform.

Mr. Kooeevelt was always a favorite with even tbe roughest members of tbe political organization with which he has been IdentU Bad ever since Its formation. He rained the platform and made a pointed address to tbe delegates. Hs reminded tbem tbat there were two issue to be borne distinctly in mind in this campaign. Tbe first was tbat tbe Presidential eaovass waa a struggle for tbe redemption of tbe country, not to crush Republicans, but to savstbe Republic.

8ucbankpportunlty for electing their Preaident would never be presented to the Democrata again, and if tbey failed sow tbe future was dark Indeed. At every mention made of Gov. Cleveland's name tbe convention shouted uproariously. Mr. Kooeevelt reminded bis bearers that business Interests are paralysed, that the wage-earning class is suffering, tost some of them are upon the verge of Starvation, and tbat there was a belief well-nigh universal tbat a change was demanded In the id ministration of the country's affairs.

In out- lining the second great issue of the canvass tbe apeaker pictured the peaceful condition of tbe city in former days, when Its citizens of wealth made their homes in tbe vicinity of Bowling Green, be bad seen the city's growth. Was there to-dsy tbe same con-tentednese, tbe same good feeling between employers and employes aa In those earlier days? tied tbe city's course been up or down in tbat respect He believed there had been a retro-grade movement, and tbat tbey were now brought face to face with one of tbe greatest dangers to tbe Kepublio two classes of citizens, one enormously rich, tbe otber very poor. This changed condition of affairs and its results seemed to bim to be due In a measure to tbe unpatriotic administration of tbe city. A eoance waa now offered to redeem tbe city. It could be done by tbe nomination and election of tbe candidates presented la tbe committee's report.

Tammany's ticket, be declared, could never beat lk An issue bad bow been made witb Tammany. Ills own oppo- Jiuoo to Tammany was not of a personal nature, was opposition to ber political system which was ruinous to tbe Democracy and degrading to politics, Applause.

E. tilery Anderson, In Indorsing tbe Candida tee. declared tbat the 4th of November would determine not only that rover Cleveland would be the next President, but it would decide whether the great -city of New-York Is owned by a few men who lay their schemes in tbe Four- teeutb-etreet wtga am or whether it la owned by the citizens themselves. Tammany had nominated the Illustrious John Kelfy for Governor In 187 In the same spirit In which 5 be bed said that- this political babe Alderman Hugh' J.

Grantf should be lavor. Who bad asked for the nomination of sir. Grant Everybody knew tbat John Kelly bad dictated bis nomination, and tbat if elected Mayor be would simply bo a political tool witb which to furnish the hungry Tammany politicians with food. Nobody desired to destroy or to Injure Tammany. In tunes past sbe had done good service, but when she usurped the rights of lbs Democracy of New-York ahe should be met at the threshold and taught to- keep ber own place: that when ahe assumed to dictate to tbo city and county she must be administered a rebuts.

Henry Clausen, tbe wealthy German Jn moving the adoption of the committee's report, said toat toe great Question was whether tbe bulk of the people of the Cnited 6tatea were in favor of an honest Government or not. It wss a Question to be settled in this municipal eanvass as well, and be waa pleased that his own nationality in thla city were fully alive to its importance and determined to support nominees wbo represented that idea. Tbe committee's report was adopted with cheers and tbe gentlemen were formally declared tbe nominees of tbe County Democracy.

SOUTH CABOLIXA'S CAMPAIGN THT BZPCBUCAKS QUIIT AND TEE DEMOCRATS VERT ACTITE. Colcttbia, 8. Oct 2L The Democratic campaijTiln this State baa been vigorous. Senators Hampton and Butler taking a prominent part in it.

and tt will be brought to a does by a srrand and final demonstration in this city on tbe 80th Inst. On tbe otber band, the Republicans and Independents have had no campaign outside of the addreaa of their Btate Executive Committee, which only found its way to the people by its publication In Democratic lour. Tbe political situation in this Mate Is a peculiar one. Tbe Democrats are fully organized and thoroughly arooaed, with a determination to weep the wboie field, from Presidential Electors down to Coroner, and for tbe first time have nominated a Democratic) candidate for Congress from tbe Seventh or Black District, now repseeented by Bobert Smalls, (colored.) a convicted bribe taker, ft mails baa already weakened and says that tbe Democratic candidate will sret the certificate, while tbe Democrats feel confident of defeating Smalls. A prominent member of the r-tate Executive Committee stated to your correspondent tbat Smalls bad made so many promisee of pecuniary aid to bis black constituents in tbe Seventh District, which he bad tailed to keep, and bad rendered himself so unpopular witb the leaders of tbe par.

ty in tbe State tbat his enemies are almost as numerous as his friends, and therefore it would not be a surprise to many Republicans if Smalls waa left at borne. Besides, be is not making a canvass of tbe district as is expected of bim. Again, nearly every man nominated on tbe State ticket of tbe Republican State Convention bas declined tbe nomination. one has been notified of -his nomination by tbe State Committee, and therefore those wbo have not declined in advance will not have tbe opportunity of accepting. The Republicans and independents have fused on an Electoral ticket with wblcb there has been no Interruption by bolts or by declination, but the prominent Republicans know tbat the Independent vote la only a myth in which the National Committee bas been hoodwinked by McLane, and tbey have no idea of sucoess on the Electoral ticket by fusion, tout they were forced into it by Mr Lane and the National Committee.

The greatest confusion exists in tbe Republican Party over tbe nominations for Congrese. In tbe First District McLane received tbe independent nomination and was indorsed by tbe State Republican Committee, but Postmaster W. X. Tart, of Charleston, has received tbe straight Republican nomination, which makes a triangular fight in tbat district and will give Dibble, tbe Democrat, a walkover. IX.

R. caster tbe Independent nominee for Congress from tbe Fourth District, wbo was also indorsed by tbe Republicans, has published his declination of tbe nomination, which lea res tbe Democratic nominee without known opposition. Resides these evidences of dissatisfaction with tbe fusion movement forced uoon the Republicans by -Steve Elklns and T. B. Jonea, at tbe instigation of McLane, tbe negroes in tbe Seventh, or Black.

The negroeg in tbat district want a black man to represent tbe black district in all things. Tbe Nstlonal Committee did an unwise thing for the Republican Party in this State when tbey tacked on to McLane.

Prons It DaU Graphic.

WtOrnaOau. Sept. YL Probably not one stranger out of fifty who ride over tbe elevated roads or on either of tbe rivers does not ask tbe name of the stately build ing which stands west ot Central Park, between Seventy- -cond and Seventy-third streets. If there is si cb a person the chances are that be Is blind or r. tarslgbtel.

The name of tbe building is the Dakota Apartment House, and it is the largest, mhst substantial, and most conveniently arranged I apartment bouse of tbe sort in this country. I It stands on the crest of tbe West Bide Plateau, on the highest portion of laud In the city, and overlooks tbe entire Island and tbe surround ng country. Prom the east one has a btrdW: view of Central Park. The reservoir castle an 1 the picturesque lake, the museums, and tbe ix all are allabown at a glance. Prom this point alao can tfe seen Long Island Bound in tbe distan ne, and the bust of Brooklyn.

From tbe north one looks down on High Bridge and the tall reservoir tower, which looks' as slender aa a needle. I rom tbe west can be seen tbe Palisades, tlii ran ire Mountains, and the broad Hudson, 'rhich narrows into a silver thread aa the doubl row of bills close together far away in tbe disi anoe. Looking south one sees the tall towers tbe Brooklyn Bridge. Governor's bland, add far beyond tbe green hills of Statea InUndanl tbe blue waters of tbe Lower Bay. Every prominent landmark in the landscape can be discerned from this location, and the great buildings of the lower city are aa promi- uenuy maraea as rx tne sightseer were floating over the island In a balloon.

At this elevation every breeze which moves across Manhattan rrom any direction is felt. This is a feature which eds no emphasis to make attractive auch stifii aa; davs as these. Tbe bui ding is of the Rensissanee style of architect ire, built of buff brick, with carved Nova Scutla freestone trimmings and terra ootta ora Although there is a profusion of ornament in the shape of bay and octagon wind iws. niches, balconies, snd balustrades, with span Irelsand panels in beautiful terra cotta work and heavy carved cornices, tbe size and massive instruction of the edifice prevent any appearan of superfluity. Tbeuildlug is about Suu feet sc uare and lOttories hia-h.

the two upper stories being in the; handsome mansard roof which, wl th its peaks and gables, surmounted by ornate co per work cresting and finials. and relieved by lormer and oriel windows, gives tbe entire str icture an air of lightness and elegance. Tne const ruction is of tbe moeti massive character, an the aim of the owners has been to produce a bu llding monumental in solidity and perfectly fin proor. The brick and mason work is of unusui il weight, tbe wails being in some places iour leetcnica. ana tne partitions and flooring have iroul beams snd framinir.

filled in with con crete and fireproof material. On the cfevrnty-third-street side there is a handsomi i doorway, and on the Seventy-second-street fro it a fine arched carriage entrance, with groined of and elegant stone carving. Both entrance! lead into tbe inner court, from which four separate passages afford access to the interior of the building. From tbe around floor four fine bronse staircases, the metal work beautifully wrought and tbe walls wainscoted in rare marbles and choice hard woods, and four luxuriously fitted elevators, of the latest and safest construction, afford means of reaching tbe upper ttoori. Tbe ladies' sitting room, adjoining tbe staircase in the southeast corner, will be decorated be the Misses Greatorex, a guarantee that the worklupon it will be artistic and unconventional.

There are four iron staircases and four elevatorslinclosed in massive brick walls and extending from the cellar to tbe kitchens and serv. ants' quarters in the upper stories, separate from tne rest tne nouse, wnicn can ne used for domestic pv rposea, carrying furniture, merchandise, Ac. There are electric hells to each elevator, an 1 a complete system of electric communication hrougbout the bouse. Tbe bu Iding is in four great divisions. wBfch Inclose a sourtyard as large as half a dozen ordinary bul dings.

This gives every room in the bouse lit ht, sunshine, and ventilation. Coder this cour yard Is the basement. Into which lead broad er trances for the use of tradesmen's teama. 1 ere are situated the most inte retain? portions the building, or at least tbe most novel or ea. Tbe floor Is of asphaltum, as dry and hare as rock.

This basement, also, bas a courtyar I as large as tbe one above, and lixnted by two ige latticed manlholes, which look like a coupi of amen flower beds in tbe stone flooring. I Off of this yard are tbe storerooms or tne inse, in which tbe management will store th furniture and trunks of the tenants free of ibanre. A porter is assigned to this duty aloi e. Tbe rooms are all marble floored, lighted a id heated, and accessible at all hours of tbe day night. The rooms of the servants are also on tl its floor.

These oonsist of separate dining and oilet rooms for tbe male and female servants ind a main readlnsr and smokins room. These arqnot for the personal servant of the ten ants, bui for the general help of tbe management, wt ich will not number far from ISO per-aons. Tt laundry, kitchen, pantry, and bake shops, md private storerooms are here also, foi tbe owners combine a hotel with the apa rtment bouse, and furnish eating faculties for all tbe tenants of tbe building wbo tirefer It on the table d'h6te plan. Opening from the lower court, and extending under th open ground in the rear of the building, a lari re vault, 150 feet long, SO feet wide, and 18 feet deep la now being excavated. When finished It will co itatn tbe steam boilers, steam engines, Ac, for hoisting, pumping, and tbe dynamos for supplying electrio illumination in tbe Dakota and adjoining 27 bouses.

The vsult will be rooted with iron beams and brick filling arches at made flush witb the land in tbe rear of tbe bt llding, 225 leet deep, which will be laid out as a i rarden. The boilers, with tbe furnaces, machine Ac-will thus be located outside tbe walls of he building safely remote. Tbe first floor contains the dining rooms, which ar finished in a perfect manner. In tbis case tbo words really mean something. Tbe floors an of marble and inlaid.

Tbe base of tbe walls is of English quartered Oak, carved by band. 1 le upper portions are finished in bronze baa-reue work, and the ceilings are also quartered oal beautifully carved. The effect is that of an oli I English baronial haH, with tbe dingy massiver. ess briEhtened and freshened without losing an of its richness. Tbe effect Is heightened by a large Scotch brownstone engraved fireplace which ornaments tne centre of the room.

1 he business office has oral communication witl i every portion of the bouse, and the wants of the tenants can be attended to as quickly as cai be done by human ingenuity and a perfect! arranged service. In addKlou to tbe four main staircases mentioned before, which are finished in bronze and marble, 1 here are four iron staircases tor servants, four passenger elevators, and four servants' ele 'ators. Tbe Di kota will be divided into about 65 different suites of apartments, each containing from fot to twenty separate rooms, so tbat ac-oommod itions can be furnished either for bachelors or for large families. There is an air of grandeu 1 and elegance not only about tbe halls and ataii ways but also about the separate apartments tliat cannot probably be found in any otber use of tbis kind in the country. Tbe parlors 1: some Instances are 25 by 40 feet, with other rooms in proportion, and there are in many ciaes private baLe to tbe suites, fur.

nisbed with fine bronze mantels, tiled hearths, and ornamental open fireplaces. Tbe parlors, libraries, reception and dining rooms are all abinet trimmed, paneied, and wainscoted in mahogony, oak, and otber attractive and durable woods, and are furnished with carved btiffetsand mantels, mirrors, tiled hearths and opei grate fireplaces, and parqueted floors. The klU hens are spacious, and provided with ranges, itb ventilating hoods, all with Minton tiled ac ng and marble wainscoting. There are poroelaii i wash tuba, large storerooms and closets, and tutlers' pantries, equipped In tbe most complete manner, and each suite has its private bathrooi as and closets, fitted with the most approved jlentifio sanitary appliances. The pli imbing and hygienic arrangements are fully eqi lal to anything of the aind in tbis country.

The word respectable is not iiTuallT re garded as tbe most complimentary eulthet that can be bestowed upon a lyric or dramatic representation, and yet It is tbe only one that can be applied, with intent to praise, to the perform-anee at tbe Star Theatre yesterday evening. From the standpoint of an Italian audience, this might claim more enthusiastic commendation. In Italy and In many parts of Southern Europe, good, bad, and Indifferent entertainments of this nature are classed aa different grades of the same article, and the frequenters of popular theatres In tbe large cities and tbe dwell- 1 In provincial towns do not mm tbe-work done for their behoof by comparison with the most perfect singing and acting the world has known. In Ens-land and here another standard prevails, and Italian opera, being considered as an exotic and an artitk tie litre, must be presented by the most girted 01 singers and with the most brilliant surroundings, if ft would not lose tbe savor which dilettanti and the fashionable public have always connected with The inference, in respect of tbe Cambiaggio-Sienl company's rendering of Aids" last night, is obvious. Their interpretation of Verdi's latest and by no means least successful opera would have been most acceptable to tbe audiences of an Italian city of moderate importance, and would even be ap plauded in one of the popular house of Milan.

Florence, or Rome. In New-York, as in London, it can only be judged by comparing it with tbe best performances of Aids" that local music lovers have witnessed. Recol lectins -Mne- Miss Cary, Bignor Campa-nmi. and M. Maurel have all been heard in "Aida." not to refer to a host of other performers of great merit, it Is easy to understand why tbe praise of respectability im neartiest mat can fairly be awarded the newcomers.

Their representation of Aids" was extremely smooth, some portions of tbe jrork were given witb so much passion and force that the listeners grew quite enthusiastic, and at no stage of the entertainment did anything give positive offence to either eye or ear. The tenor, Slgnor Glannini, although wholly successful, did not eclipse bis associates, for, with the exception of tbe contralto, all are equipped with good voices, and appeared to have as much experience as they showed earnestness and animation. biimor Ulanninl has been in the Cnited States before, and sang at Booth's Theatre a few seasons ago. He has powerful, fairly vibrant, and even tenor voice, which gives out A's, fiats, and B's with unusual facility; be phrases broadly and intelligently, and he is a passable actor. Bignor Giannini's command of roezza voce is limited, and hence thn la lfri-lA light or shade In bis execution.

But he is an nonest ana vigorous singer, whose moot objectionable trait is a tendency to drag the time as In Celeste Aida" and to cling to a tone with the idea of proving his stayina: power to the disfigurement, occasionally, of the theme running throuirh his measures. The soprano of the company, Signora Virginia Damerini, is a very skilled sons-stress, with some agreeable high tones in her voice. Signora Dam-erini's style is both refined and expressive, and passasres in her first brief air. at tbe clone of the first scene, and "Ciell ax- zurri" were very tastefullv riven, whiin in tbe concerted numbers tbe high notes assigned to ber ran out above chorus and orchestra. Signor Tieete Wilmant, who personated Amonaaro, is an excellent baritone, although be did not make as much of the effective parts of his duet in the third act with Aiila as was expected.

Slgnori Serbolinl and Bologni, bassos, are both competent artiste, and dealt satisfactorily with Rampobls and tbe King. The contralto. Si mora Trinidad Meatrsaa. waa the weak spot of the performance. Her voice is worn and afflicted with a painful vihrato.

ber method is bad, and, as an actress, she is Inexpressive and ungainly. Mention has been made al ready or the even character of the entertainment. Its general merit was enhanced by tbe efficient work of the chorus, by the no less creditable though rather noisy playing of the orchestra. aua ny consiaeraDie attention to toe stage attire of the opera. All the popular numbers of Aida" were loudly applauded, the splendid finale of the second act was capitally rendered and was redemandeo, and so was the duet between Rhadamee and Aida In act tbe third, while Signora Damerini neatest bits ot singing had prompt recognition.

Where there was ao much to admire in a representation it was hardly necessary to induce a noisy claque to make la presence known by demonstrations which often discouraged disinterested spectators from expressing their delight by means of audible if not aoareniny plaudits.

Wabhetotoic, Oct, 21. "While Commis sioner Dudley's denials of any improper use of the Pension Offlos in the pending campaign are very plausible, tbey do not aa fact meet the mala charge. In tbe statement which be has had telegraphed from this city. CoL Dud- Icy asserts with much emphasis that "the Barge that payment of pensions is being delayed by me in order to coerce pensioners to support our candidate Is false, as every pensioner can testify Tbis denial neither covers nor touches the most serious charge made against penidon officers. This is tbat persons In Ohio and Indiana, wbo have claims pending in tbe Pension Office and wbo have hitherto voted tbe Democratic ticket, have been approached by persona professing to be connected witb the office, and have been assured tbat if they would ote for tbe Republican' candidate their claims would hereafter be advanced In tbe Pension Office.

CoL Dudley alao fails to meet tbe charge tbat tbe Blaine managers In Indiana have been furnished with lists of pension claimants whose political sympathies are Democrat ic or indepeudent Republican, in order tbat such persons msy oe sought out and argued with. Clerks In the Pension Office are now ens-aared In preparing a transcript from the records to show that tbe percentage of Ohio and Indiana pension cases adjudicated this year is less than during preceding years, and less than tbe percentage of Illinois cases. Mr. Cleveland's friends here are wonderinar how aucb a compilation roves tbat Commissioner Dudley bas notpros-tuted the Pension Offioe to party uses. REPLYING TO MR.

WHEELER. Washington, Oct 21. In response to the letter recently addressed to the President by Mr. Everett P. Wheeler, counsel for the Civil Service Reform Association, regarding' Commissioner Dudley's conduct in going to Ohio for political purposes, the Acting Commissioner of Pensions furnishes tbe following statement.

After recapitulating the subject matter of tbe charges he says: Upon these points I will state briefly that Commissioner Dudley left this city on or about Sept, 8 last, when the duties of tbe office devolved upon me. On or about Sept. 80 ult. Col. Dudley returned to the city, and while here nsnoed you nis resignation as Commissioner of Pensions, the same to take effect Nov.

10 next. He ajrain left the city on Meot. SL and re turned on the lftth of October Inst. Dur ing the absence of the Commissioner of Pensions no precedence of action has been given in pension cases to those residing either in Ohio or Indiana, or In fact for any purpose, within the scope of Mr. Wheeler's statement; nor nave 1 received from CoL Dudley, either before his departure from the city or during his absence, any orders or instructions relat ing to mis suoiect.

am not aware, nor have 1 any reason to believe, that any specific instructions to any of tbe subordinates of the offioe hsd been given by tbe Commissioner of Pensions with a view to secure such a partial action, A discrimination in tbe settlement of pension claims for the purposes referred to by JKr. Wheeler, to the detriment of others equally deserving, wonld be so criminally unjust tbat I may be pardoned in emphasizing my denial, so far as mv action or knowledge even can go, tbat any such favoritism has been shown, even, 1 may add. by Indirection. The subject of the conduct of the affairs of this office is one of sucb widespread interest and affectins- tbe hopes and tears of so many thousands that I should feel a dellcaev in permlttlna- any subject of inquiry of the character mentioned to pass by upon a simple affirmation or denial of my own, therefore I will submit a few figures from tbe official records for your Information and consideration. Exhibit A will show a list of several pension gircnctes and tbe number of army invalid pen sioners upon tne rous oi eacn at the close oi each fiscal year since 1877.

txhlbit a will show tbe oer cent- of the number of army Invalid pensioners on the roll which each agency bears to tbe whole number of that class; the number of claims allowed from June 1 to Oct. 15, Iflxa. and for tbe corresponding period of 1884; stating in each tbe per cent, which those allowed on tbe rolls of each agency bears to the whole number so allowed. Reference was also made by Mr. Wheeler to the arrears of work of tbis office.

Tbe reports of tbe Commissioner of Pensions for the years ending June 80, 1W3, and June 90, 1M. show that tbe number of claims pending in 1883 was ana in inetzmKsj. in exniDtta A and a it will be observed that invalid claims onlv are referred to. as it Is from that class the voting element exists, and to which the letter of Mr. Wheeler spe- cincauy reiera.

Mr. Blaine, if tba statements made at the Ee publican Btate Committee's Headquarters are to be believed, will turn his caravan toward the East the latter part of this week, and on Monday night next will give an exhibition at Angelica, Allegany County. The following day be is expected, according to these same authorities. In this city.

He is not entirely satisfied witb the work of the Btate Committee if reports are to be believed. In fact, it is the opinion of old campaigners thatCno more Incompetent a Btate Committee ever managed any candidate's canvass. Tbeoomnuttee In previous years have been in the habit of oontributinar about H0 to manage tbe affairs of each of the election districts in this city. This year the local leaders are riven to understand that tbey must beg, borrow, or steal their usual allowanoe. for tbe committee haa only been able to extort S44.0U0 from the community, and this sum haa bad to bo used up In tbe Btate to overcome the Prohibition vote, and some otber dlfflculti ot an anti-Blalne nature.

Bonfirea must be burned on a thousand hills, for this is a campaign of enthusiasm, and enthusiasm must largely take tbe place of campaign substantiala this year. Tbe committee finds that tt costs money to run a campaign even of wind, as It is UrhUy called. Tbe Btate Committee Issued an address in tba of tbe btate yesterday In which it' incm upon tne result in umo aaa est trglnla. The results in these two Statea. tos-etber with those obtained in Maine ana Vermont, are iranxiy cnaractenxea aa most aigntncant, and tt is declared that tbe people of this country understand and appreciate the situation- ft Is rraveiy maintained by these Olisey House philosophers tbat in the long public life of their candidate no vulnerable point can be found, and effort made to attract some attention to tb tar in issue, wnicn sir.

tuaina bas endeavored vain to fasten upon this campaign. With grim satisfaction tbe authors auecit that the enemv Is in full retreat and the fish ting must be forced all along the line. Meetings should be held in every school district therefore to harass this enemy. Hearistration is urged in forcible terms. Look out for colonization in tenement bouses and populous districts, and every otber sort of shouts the committee.

Local committees are requested to have a special list of aired or infirm in their district, and nmniln carriages for having tbem brought to too polla early.
