W. Sturdy Ordered to Lake Erie. 1 i Special Dispatch to the Baltimore Sun.l Annapolis, Nov.

4 E. W. Sturdy, United States Navy, whose family resides in Anuapoli3, has just been ordered to the Michigan, on Lake Erie, as executive Mr. Sturdy returned from a South American cruise not long ago, and in the order of events was entitled to shore duty for three years. Ou account of his living here it was supposed he would be ordered to duty at the Naval Academy.

He is a very popular ofiicer, and his detachment is a disappointment to his friends. Mr. Sturdy married Miss Loekwood, who formerly resided in Annapolis. It is not supposed that many of the officers attached to the Naval Academy will go home to vote at the coming election. As a rule naval officers are not politicians to any extent, although they take greatinterest in the drift of the campaign.

This is so for the reason that their profession is removed from political influences, they having nothing to gain and much to lose from mixing in politics, and because they are almost always away from their homes too far to return, and in many instances so Jlong that they lose their residence. The naval court-martial of which Lieut. W. H. Reeder was president, organized to try Robert McCormick, a private in the United States marine corps, for desertion, soon got through with its work, the accused having pleaded guilty to the charge.

The sentence of the court, after being submitted to the superintendent of the Naval Academy, will be forwarded to the Secretary of the Navy for his approval. Desertion carries with it one or two years' imprisonment, and at its expiration a "bobfaii" or dishonorable discharge from the service. Prof, and Mrs. W. W.

Fay, of the Naval Academy, have issued cards for the marriage of their daughter. Miss Claude, to Lieut. Charles Augustus Doyen, United States- marines. The ceremony will take place Wednesday afternoon, Novemlier 16, at 2 o'clock, at St. Anne's Church, Annapolis.

Mr. Wellington and the Special Dispatch to the Baltimore Sun.l Rook vi lle, Nov. 4. A republican mass-meeting was held here today, at which JohnG. England presided.

Mr. Wellington spoke for two hours.confining himself to the tariff. During his speech some one handed him a copy of The Suit containing an account of tbe Laytonsville incident, where Mr. Bulver. of Ashton, interrupted Mr.

Wellington in his statements about the price of tin. Mr. Wellington read the paragraph and very excitedly denounced it as a lie. He gave an account of the incident, in which he stated that he told his interrupter that no man should saythat he (Wellington) said what was not true and that the tinner had to run to keep the republicans from doing him harm, tbat tbe man was a total stranger, had no receipted bills and vanished to nobody knows where. This episode created considerable excitement.

There were in the audiene several prominent citizens who were present at the Laytonsville meeting and who expressed their astonishment at Mr. Wellington's emphatic denial. These gentlemen all state that the tinner was well-known in the community and exhibited his bills from Lyon. Conkling and of Baltimore, showing that before the passage of the McKinley bill tin cost him 9 25 and 9 50 and since tho passage of the bill S12 to $12 25 per box. The Laytonsville tinner is fillinsr a prominent place in the campaicn in t.hi county.

Coffee Cultivation in Guatemala. Washington, Nov. 4. Extracts from a report by the British minister at Guatemala to his government upon tbe subject of coffee cultivation in that republic have been received by the bureau of American republics. The minister says that the extraordinary growth of the coffee industry in Central America, and especially in the Republic of Gautemala, would seem worthy of special notice, and inasmuch as there are still thousands of acres of land left suitable to the cultivation of the plant, it opeus up an extensive and marketable field for foreign enterprise.

The export of coffee from Guatemala in 1891 amounted to 62.197,853 pounds, valued roughly at about $12,000,000, and this year's crop will, is confidently believed, be considerably in excess of that of 1S9L The Demand for Small Notes.

Acting Treasurer Whelpiey says the heavy demand for notes of small denominations indicates unusual business activity in anticipation of an increased trade during the coming holidays.

Washington, Nov. 4. The Acting Secretary of the Treasury has advised the Department of State, in response to a communication covering an inquiry from the United States Consul General at Berlin, that certificates of Imperial Commissioner Wermuth as to the identity of German laborers coming to this country as employes of exhibitors at the World's Colutnoian Exposition will be sufficient to secure such employes admission at our ports. Similar evidence of identity as to such fem-pioyes from other countries will be regarded as sufficient. Speeding the Mails.

Washington, Nov. 4. Arrangements are being perfected by General Superintendent White, or the railway mail service, by which the 7.40 P. M. out of New York on the Penn-syluania Railroad 'will reach Chicago half an hour earlier than at present, insuring better connections with the trunk lines running west and northwest from Chicago.

It is also expected that the New York, New Haven and Hartford and the Old Colony Railroads will shorten their running time into Boston so as to bring the train leaving New York at midnight into Boston at 6.30 A. M. instead of 7 A. thus making better mail and passenger connections North. District Courts.

Nov. 4. la any other country than this on the eve of a great national election that was to affect the entire policy of the government in all its departments for four rears, the national capital would be a perfect storm eentre ot political excitement, but there is scarcely a ripple of excitement in Washingxon. so far as surface indications show, over the battle of the ballots next Tuesday. There is, of course.the most inteuse interest felt in the result by all classes of citizens, but ns the auarter of a million people livinsr here have no voice in the affairs of government and In the selection of officials, there is nothing to call out any political excitement, and a stranger visiting the city could scarcely believe himself in the capital of a nation that was ou the eve of an election that might change the entire policy of the government.

As the time of the election draws near it becomes even more quiet here, for the reason that most of those bavins' voting rights in the States jro away, and from now until after election day the hotels and other public places will be almost deserted. TALK OF DEMOCRATIC SUCCESS. The political g-ossip here is larsrely a reflex of that in New York, where the campaign headquarters are located, and wiihin the past twenty-four hours there has been a marked increase in the talk of democratic success. This is doubtless in great part due to the apparent abandonment of the field by Senator Quay, who is looked upou as the ablest political manager in the republican camp. His presence in Washington for four days without groins near the White House or consulting with any of the friends of the-President is looked upon as indicating that he does not take much interest in the outcome of the flcht.

A story circulated today about Senator Quay also had something to do with increasing democratic confidence. Jt is said that the Senator was approached at Chamberlain's Hotel night before last by some of bis intimate friends, who wanted his advice about making bets on the success of be republican ticket, when he told tbera not to bet on Harrison at any odd3 unless they wanted to lose their money. There was a sligrht revival of republican talk this evenlnt', basd on the confident claims of Secretary Tracy, who returned to Vashinsrtou from New ork today, and upon the promises made by Chris Masree, who is at taeArlineiouon his way home from Alabama and is declaring that that State wilj cast her electoral vote mrainsfc tbe democratic ticket. It is believed here, however, tnat there is little danger of the loss of that State to the democrats, for the reason that the alliance between the third party and the republicans is so open and apparent that the people of the 6tatt fully realize that a vote for the so-called third party electors is in reality a vote for Harrison and the force bilLand they will, therefore, either vote the democratic ticket or stay away from tbe polls rather than vote even Indirectly for the republican candidate and the principles of centralization and special class legislation which he represents. "EVERYTHINO POINTS TO CLirVELAJTD." Ex-Juuie Albert rtairau.

uf IUatio, one of the most prominent lawyers of the West, is at the llifrjrs House. Burin the last thirty days-he has visited twenty-five States of the Union, and, though on a purely business trip, has conversed with politicians on ail sides. He said to a representative of The fc-trx today that he icoutrht everything pointed to tn election or Mr. Cleveland. "Cleveland." said he, "will undoubtedly carry Indiana, with a close run in Illinois, at least half of the electors in half of the electors in Minnesota, probably four, and is poinsr to have a splendid chance of carrying the State of Wisconsin clean.

"Although 1 am a democrat, I think Harrison will carry California, Oregon, Washington mid Idaho. Nevada will go lor Cleveland or Weaver, and while Montana is disputed ground and much in doubt, I tuink Cleveland will carry the State. This is conceded by many with whom I have talked. Nebraska will be given to Weaver and many believe he will get one of the Dakotas, prob-abio NorthDakota. However, my own judgment is that both of the Dakotas wilt go tor Harrison, because the eiection there of two years ago presented an entirely different condition of affairs from the present ca- r.irmn.1 fiorttptL THE FARMERS ALLIANCK.

"The Farmers Aiiiauce is cot strong? in the extreme West, but it is very strong in Nebraska. Iowa, Kansas and the Dakotas. they being entirely agricultural sections of the country. Tbe farmers are very mad; they tiou't know exactly wnai they are mad about, but tiiey are mad just the same, and naturally blame the party in power lor all their ilis nl erin7Kn Sfnll thna ful" 1 auu iidauvLD -j in but? paicn I must say there has been but comparatively little excitement anywhere in the West. InJeed, it is so quiet speakers have had difficulty in procunag audiences.

One of tbo most remarkable features of the campaign is that everybody knows all about it and don't care about being talked to or argued with. In Idaho the Cleveland electors have been drawn oil and the democrats are supporting Weaver and have placed the Weaver electors on their ticket, although all three of the parties are running separate fetate tickets as well county tickets. Even with this coalitin 1 think Harrison will carry Idaho. The democrats may elect their istaie ticket. In Montana the State tight overshadows even the presidential fight.

Still, the general opinion there is tbat Cleveland will carry the iftate. In Colorado ail the republicans and most of the democrats are ultra free-silver men, and the chances today, unless there is some sudden change, point to the election of the Weaver electors. In fact. I think democrats and republicans alike will vote for the Weaver electors on the silver question alone and will elect them. JZ COLORADO AND NEVADA FOR WEAVER.

"It is very safe. I thinJk, to predict that Colorado and Nevada will go to Weaver, and the Weaver electors will not vote for either Cleveland or Harrison in th electoral college. Nevada, is canvassing tbe State for Weaver, although himself a republican, while 3Ir. Newlands, the republican nominee for Congress, will be elected because he is the accepted nominee of all the parties and is supporting tbe Weaver electors on tbe stump. So it looks like Nevada would be almost unauimoud for Weaver on tbe siiver question alone.

In Oregon the democrats and Weaver men have failed to effect a fusion, and the tnree tickets which are in tbe field assure the State for Harrison by a large majority. The State of Washington is mixed up on State tickets, and it is bard to say who will carry the State ticket, but it is safe to say Harrison will have from five to ten thousand majority there. My opinion is. after a careful consideration of tbe situation in the States 1 have visited in the past month, tbat Mr. Cleveland 111 be elected by the electoral college." ARMY ORDERS.

A Statement that Sterling Was in Maryland Waters When Shot by the Virginia Officer for Trespassing in that State A Tinner in Politics, i Special Dispatch to the Baltimore Sun. Chisfield, Nov.

4. Captain Joshua Thomas, of the police schooner Helen M. Baughman, left Crisfield yesterday morning for the purpose of investigating the shooting of Isaac Sterling, a Maryland oysterman, as heretofore reported in The Sun. by Capt. John S.

the Virginia oyster police, in Pocomoke sound. Tbe inquiry was ordered by General Setb, commander of the Maryland oyster navy. On this investigation the following statement of the case is made: "The shooting took place October 29. Captain Thomas met Captain Gas-kins in Pocomoke near Cedar straits, about three o'clock The Virginia officer was invited aboard the Maryland schooner, but he declined the invitation, stating he would rather Captain Thomas should board him. Captain Thomas was not long accepting the invitation.

Captain Gas-kins, when asked where Mr. Sterling was when shot, stated he was 203 or 300 yards over the line on the Virginia side. But when asked by Captain Thomas to show him the line, the Virginia officer, replied that he couldnot except by a chart. The chart was brought, aud when asked to locate the line it could not be done, even on the chart. He also stated that it was almost impossible for any man to locate the true line.

He further stated that in running his course on the line he did not at all times know positively whether or not ho was in Maryland or Virginia waters. Captain Thomas again asked him if he could possibly locate the true line, and he stated that he could not, either oh the land or the water. The question then arose as to how it was possible to protect a line that could not be located. Captain Gaskins has been captain of The Virginia oyster police schooner Pocomoke for the past eight years, andMarylandera complain that bo has used his power arbitrarily. Captain Gaskins admitted that he sbot Sterling with his own hands, firing upon him eight or ten times.

Sterling was in a very small boat. It is the opinion of the people here that it would have beeu an easy task for Captain Gaskins to have captured him without resorting to violeuce. Sterling was shot with a ride carrying a half-ounce cartridge. The ball entered Sterling's risrht side, penetrating his intestines. The wounded man, realizing his serious condition, asked permission to return home for the purpose of securing medical aid.

The Viruiuia officer did not seem to heed the request nor offer any assitance, but sailed away, leaving the disabled man to his own resources. Fortunau-ly some tellow-oystermen were near by. They carried the wounded man to his home, and Dr. H. H.

Gunby was summoned. The last reports state that he is in a dying condition. Sterling has four small children. The affair has created intense teeling among the people of Somerset county, and they seem anxious for a thorough investigation. Captain Gaskins states that he never before shot at any man so near the supposed line." Captain Tnomas spent last night in Pocomoke sound and quite a number of Maryland oystermen went on board and expressed their views of the situation.

It is the opinion of the people interested in the oyster industry of Pocomoke sound that a Maryland police boat should be stationed in the sound invested with tull authority to protect tbe oj seer interests of Maryland, the same as is furnished by tbe State of Virginia. It this should be done the Maryland oystermen could with justice and equity claim as much of the disputed territory as does Virgima. Two or three Maryland citizens saw Mr. Sterling when shot from the Maryland shore. They say that he was a lpng distance within the line on the Maryland side.

Also, according to some, he was in Maram-scot creek, wbich is three miles iuside the line established by commissioners in 1877, called tbe Black and Jenkins line. Captain Turner, of the steamer Governor McLane, met Captain Thomas in Pocomoke sound, being sent lor the same purpose. He left the matter entirely in the hands of Captain Thomas and returned to Crisfield. THE STATE CAPITAL. Court of Appeals Decisions Expected November 15.

Babeock, pastor in charge of the Methodist Episcopal churches on the South River Circuit, delivered a temperance sermon iast night at Hope Chapel, in the first district, to an audience of colored people, numbering about seventy-five.

He said, among other things, that it was as much of a Christian's duty to cast his ballot at the polls on election day for prohibition as it was to preach temperance in every-day life. Both political parties, he declared, were equally interested in the liquor traffic, and the temperance cause could, therefore, expect nothing from either party. Mr. Bab-cock, in conclusion, advised his hearers to support tbe temperance candidates, and some of them said they would do so.

Special Dispatch to the Baltimore Sun.l Washington. Nov. 4. Now tbat the city is in no more trouble with Mellinite and Hus-sellite disturbances, the alcohol troubles again excite local the decisions in the Nau case and in the Sullivan case came to the front again. It was decided by the General Term in the au case that the liquor law Dassed by Congress is a law "for revenue only." and that tbe substitute law made under guise of a police regulation by the District commissioners to cure the defect in the act of Congress is no law at all.

That is the substance of the Nau and the Sullivan decisions. In announcing the decision In the Sullivan case, last Monday, Judge James was understood to intimate that all the powers of the act of Congress, even considered as a revenue act only, had not been exhausted against those liquor dealers that continued to.seil without naving in fact paid the license tax. Some lawyers say tbat the question whether tender stands in any shape as payment in cases where tne parties to whom the tender is made is forbidden by law to receive it has Dot yet been presented at till, and the intimation of Judge" James is understood to point in this direction. The latest phase of the prosecution since the SullivaD decision is found the case of Win. Giflord.

They Have Been Placed Under the Protection of Great Britain. Washington, Nov. 4. The Department of Stato has received noilce that the Gilbert Islands, lying in the Pacific ocean under the equator, have been placed under tbe protection of Great Britain. The decree announcing the protectorate was promulgated at Apamama May 27 last.

About that dat-e Tebureiuira, King of Butaritari. one of the Gilbert islands, was in San Francisco, from which place be addressed a most earnest appeal to the Department of State for the protection of his kingdom against Great Britain and for the establishment of an American protectorate over it- The action of Great Britain was in pursuance of the well-defined colonization system agreed upou by that nation and Germany looking to the division between them of The uuaunexed island groups of Poivneslu. With tbe operation of tins plan the Uuited States bus steadlastly declined to interfere, and tbe King's petition for protection was dismissed with a negative reply. The doctrine which governs the United States in this matter was clearly laid down by Secretary Foster in a note written last month upon the subject of au international agreement to prevent the sulo of liquor aud firearms to natives of Polynesia. The secretary then wrote: "Tbe government of the United States Is without colonial interests of any kind in that quarter of the globe, and its administrative responsibilities are remotely confined to participation iu the encouragement of good government and autonomy in the Satnoan group."
