LOCAL PERSONAL.

   DR. E. M. SANTEE returned from New York this morning where he had been looking after his interests in the contest now being conducted for the chief consulship of the New York state division of the L. A. W. 
   A number of the leading wheelmen of the city tendered him a banquet last Wednesday evening. The doctor brings encouraging reports as to the success of the campaign. His opponents are already threatening to contest the election, which is a very good indication of weakness on their part. The voting is by mail, and the polls are open from Oct. 15 to Nov. 15.

   SUPERINTENDENT and Mrs. A. W. Angel went to Syracuse this morning to take Minnie, Irene and Henry Rusimisson, three German orphans, aged respectively five, four and three years, to the Onondaga Orphan asylum. There is also at the county house a six weeks' old American baby, which can be adopted by applying to Superintendent Angel.

SOCIALIST DEMONSTRATION.

Viennese Police Interfere and Disorder Ensues—Other Foreign News.

   VIENNA, Oct. 19.—Ten thousand socialists met at the Sofiensaal in the Landstrasse section of the city. The place was not large enough to hold the great crowd of people and hundreds were turned away. Dr. Adler made a speech in favor of universal suffrage.

   At the close of the meeting those present formed in procession and marched to the Ringstrasse in the inner city. Here a squadron of 80 mounted police charged the crowd with drawn swords.

   As the police were charging one of the horses fell and a number of the other horses stumbled over him, bringing their riders to the ground.

   Horses and men were struggling on the ground and many of the Socialists at the head of the procession were knocked down by the sudden onset.

   Fifteen of the Socialists and one policeman were left lying on the ground, where they had been severely injured by sabre strokes or the hoofs of the struggling horses.

   The procession was ultimately broken up and many of the participants were arrested.

   Among those taken into custody was Dr. Pernerstorfer, a member of the reichsrath. He was recognized by the commissary of police who ordered his immediate release and apologized to him for his arrest.

   Dr. Pernerstorfer protested against the brutality of the police and declared that their interference had caused the whole disturbance. Had it not been for the action of the police the procession would have been a most orderly one. He intends to question the reichsrath on the subject.

Czar's Condition Much Worse.

   ST. PETERSBURG, Oct. 19.—-The announcement that the condition of the czar had probably changed for the worse was contained in an official bulletin issued at 11 o'clock Wednesday night at Livadia and signed by Professors Leyden, Zacharin, Topoff and Beljaminoff. The bulletin added that his majesty showed symptoms of general debility and that his weakness of heart was more pronounced.

   An immense crowd was in attendance. The United States navy was represented by the cruisers New York, San Francisco and Cincinnati, which are anchored on the Hudson off this place, and fired salutes.

   The ceremonies of unveiling and dedicating the shaft were presided over by Judge Noah Davis. Governor Flower was present and delivered an address.

   The Sons of the Revolution and the Sons of the American Revolution, together with the Daughters of the Revolution, are present. All the Grand Army posts of the county of Westchester took part, and also a battery from Fort Hamilton.

Patriotic Celebration in Baltimore.

   BALTIMORE, Oct, 19.—The anniversary of the burning of the tea-laden British brig Peggy Stewart in Annapolis harbor in 1774, as a protest against the stamp act, will be celebrated tonight by a reunion of the Maryland Society, Sons of the American Revolution. The society always holds its annual meeting on Peggy Stewart day.

HOMER DEPARTMENT.

Gleanings of News From Our Twin Village.

   A fire was discovered in a house on Grove-st. last night at about 12:20 o'clock. The house is the property of Mrs. Wm. Allen, who resides on James-st. It has been occupied until recently by Mr. Wm. Edwards, but was vacant at the time of the fire. Mr. Joseph Litz, who resides in the house just west, discovered flames issuing from the foundation to the roof about midway between the front and back on the west side of the house. He immediately gave the alarm. Triumph Hose Co., No 4, was the first company at the scene of the fire and had water on the flames in short order. The other companies arrived soon after and with two streams the fire was soon under control. The value of the house was about $600. There was no insurance. The general impression seems to be that this is another case of incendiarism.

   A number of real estate transactions have occurred in town recently. Three farms have changed hands on the plank road. Walter Moxsie has purchased the farm which he has occupied for several years of Wm. Sharp. Patrick Lane has bought the Hough farm which he now occupies, and John Roe has bought the [Burvee] farm of Andrew Gray of Preble, who recently bought it on a mortgage foreclosure sale.

   A very pleasant surprise party was given last night to Mr. and Mrs. Marcus Coughnet at their home on Clinton-st., the occasion being their eighteenth wedding anniversary. The affair was a complete surprise to Mr. and Mrs. Coughnet. They were both calling on Mr. and Mrs. John Miller on South Main-st. and their first intimation of anything unusual was when they entered their home and found it in possession of their friends. Very fine refreshments were served by the intruders. Rev. E. C. Olney in the name of the guests presented the host and hostess with a beautiful silver knife and a silver and cut glass berry bowl.
