Ex-President Harrison Talks Politics in Indiana.

HE MAKES A JOURNEY TO FORT WAYNE

En Iloute lie Deliver* Ten Speech**, Addressing ThouPHiidn—He Dlgcusse* the CUUHCH of LIURTLNCAM Depression and Hard Time*.'.

Four WAYNE, hid., Oct 20.—ExPresident Harrison addressed 5,000 people in the rink here Friday night. It was the last address in a series of ten since 0 o'clock Friday morning. Tiie other points at which lie spoke were Noblesville, Cicero, Arcadia, Tipton, Kokotno, Marion. Warren, Mutftun and Decatur. Thousands of persons were gathered at all of these places, the largest crowd, that at Marion, numbering 10,000. Three thousand persons greeted the ex-presi-dent on his arrival at the depot in this city. and escorted him to the Aveline hotel.

At 7:80 o'clock Gen. Harrison was escorted to the rink by a procession of campaign clubs bearing- torches. The ex-president was warmly greeted on being- introduced by Hon. Charles li. Everett, chairman of the republican county committee. Mi*. Harrison spoke largely upon tlie lines of his Evansville speech in regard to the tariff, but devoted a considerable portion of his address to examining the cause of the recent business depression. Upon this point he spoke as follows:

Still In Ihe Slmdow. •v-'V'-''

"Wo have hiul, mid we tiro still in the shadow of, vary evil times. The farmer has felt them, the merchnnt lias foil them: above all, the mun who was dependent upon his daily wages for his living has felt them, because when he lost Ul« job ho lost everything whertvis the merchant, when his goods were marked down, hud still something left.

Not C-aU8«?d by Over-Speculation. "There were one or two features of this panic that 1 want to talk to you about. In the first place I want to say that in my opinion It was not one of those panics which sometimes come from over-trading und over-speculation. It was not a relapse from some balloon enterprise that we had entered Into. We have had such panics nts that In this country and they were always characterized by a treat deal of litigation in our courts. In the panic of 1*73 and 1^74 the courts of all our counties were crowded with collection suits. Men were being sued on notes and mortgages were being foreclosed. That state of things has not characterized this panic through which we have just gone. There has been very little of that. It was not overtrading and over-speculation It was not wlldcuttlng in business that brought this panic upon us. If it had been we would have seen the necessary incidents and concomitants of that sort or thing in the collection of notes and foreclosures, of mortgages all over our country.

Not Due to I.nek of Mon«*y.

"The next thing 1 want to sny Is that this panic did nut happen tor lack of money to do the business of the country. When this panic began we had more money in circulation per capita than we have had for many years. This hart come about In this way. In the first place under what is known as the Sherman law- the silver purchasing law. under which we bought 4.WW 000 ounces of sliver every inonth-we Issued a large amount of what was called treasury notes, so that the money In circulation h.id been increased by about $Uo,iW (XK) by this new currency that hud t*eui put out among the people. The money in circulation had also been enormousIncreased by the reduction of the surplus in the treasury. "You remember, my democratic friends, uhen they made that campaign upon the theory that the country was being ruined because there was so much surplus. They said: •You have taken this money out of the pockets of the people nnd locked It up und It isn't doing anybody any good.' That surplus had been by the purchase of government bonds reduced enormously and the money was out among the people doing Its work. And then by the Increased pensions—which 1 am glad to say a republican congress voted and I approved with pleasure and have never apologized for—an enormous additional amount of money was put in circulation among the people, until our democratic friends changed the form of the Indictment against us. They indicted us first for having too much in the treasury, and now they say we left too little. "My point 1B that the money in circulation was so largely increased that It could not have been a lack of confidence on the part of the people in the money that was lu circulation. It was not because they doubled the value of the bills or the coin they had In their pockets. It was one of the curious features of that panic that men who had money and went to the bank to get It did not care much what kind of money was paid them—whether it was silver certificates or what not. They did not stop to look at It but j»'ist wrapped It up In a newspaper and took it home and hid it under the bed, or look it to a savings deposit company, hired a box and stuck it in there. The result was a great scarcity of money, but presently the people got over their fear of the banks and they brought the money back. But the banks could not. make anv use of it. Nobody wanted it. There was no business being done. There were no solvent borrowers who could use the money, and from that time to this that bus been the situation of this country. All of our bank?, lime been tilled with money belonging f.o people who did not wantto use It.

Due to Tariff I'neertalnty.

"What was this expectation of evil, this dread of a catastrophe which came upon the people uf this country and which Is still more or less upon iheru, It was the uncertainty that the democratic success of 18W2 Introduced. The democrats said they were going to destroy this protective system. They were going to tear down this house that had sheltered us. From that time to this the people have Just stood wondering, fearing, dreading what might bo done on that question."

This morning at fl o'clock (ion. Harrison started on the return trip to Indianapolis. speaking en route at Coin a t.y, NY a rsa w, PIvin th. Rochester, IVru, Logansport, Delphi, Lafayette and Lebanon.

MANY FEATURES OF EXCOURAGtMLM".

ItufttnoKP, However, According: to the Former, HHB

Not Yet Answered Eipoo*

tatlonn—Weaker Prices—The Failure Record.

NEW YOHK, Oct. 20.—R. G. Dun & Co.'s weekly review of trade says: "Cotton below 6 cents and wheat below bf oents—each lower than ever since present classifications were known, with exports of gold instead of products at such prices in October are the salient features of business this week. Distribution of woods to consumers goes on fairly, with pains at uearly all po'??ts in comparison with last year, but not yet ai a rate to sustain the present volume of manufacturing production, so that prices weaken a little. The domestic trado represented by railroad earnings In Octobor Is 3.1 per cent, less than last year, and 13.4 per cent. less than in J892. Tho payments through tho principal clearing houses for the third week of October are 2.3 percent, greater than lust year, but 31.5 per rent, less than in 189U. The daily average for the month Is 5.0 per cent, larger than last year, but 2S.2 smaller than In 1B9I With many features of encouragement, business has not yet answered expectations, aud It Is evident that the loss of part of the corn crop and the unnaturally low prices of other staples affect tho buying power of millions. '.

Weaker Prices.

"Wheat for October dolivery fell toM^. cents on Wednesday, and In spite of some recovery the average for October thus far Is 2 eonts below tho lowest monthly average ever made, which was in September and was nearly 10 cents below the lowest prior to this year, the Octooer average being oU cents below that of October, 1891 or I8i»0. "Corn declined Vic during the week, with receipts not a quarter of last year's, and exports not a tenth. Pork products were somewhat weaker, with lard a quarter lower. Cotton sold at 6.04 ceuts on Thursday, and with Ellison's estimate that the world will consume fl.i!4A.00G bales of American, the stock of 2.000.000 bales In sight and the estimated yield of over 9,000.000 bales deters buvers.

lucre**© In Import*.

"The Increase in Imports exclusive of sugar was over 8ft per cent. In September, and In two weeks of October at New York over 48 per cent. With this heavy Increase in purchases, and a decrease In sales of products abroad, tho market for foreign exchange is lu a position to be quickly affected by withdrawals of capital or apprehensions regarding the future peace of Europe.

Million* of Idle Money.

"To half a million gold shipped Tuesday It ia expected that as much will be added to-day. It appears that three trust companies here now hold over $4),OOO.OOJ Idle money and that millions are being taken from New York by New England banks, while the northwestern demand for money Is unusually small. The treasury is again falling backward In reserve, and largo imports yield a little less revenue than last year, while internal revenue for the past three weeks is 84.000,000 smaller than a year ago.

Itct:ill Sale* Slow.

"The dry goods business and textile industries were especially favored by the demand in August and September. Wholesale and retail stocks have been replenished, and business waits for retail sales, which u.v as yet slower than was expected. In cotton goods the new business has been narrow and resumption by Kali Hiver mills has depressed prices to some extent. 'Ihe boot and shoe trade la doing remarkably well. The Iron and steel business makes a better showing this week.

Tlie Failure Record.

"The failures in October thus far have been quite moderate in strictly commercial line*, the liabilities amounting to $3.8:M,1'87, of which $1,793,630 were of manufacturing and 31.9t)0,08C of tradiug concerns. Some failures of banking, investment and loan coucerns not here included. have uot proved of general importance. During the past week the failures have been 'i58 in the United States against 341 last year and 43 in Canada against 20 last year."

ItradRtreet'ii View.

Iradstreet\s says: "With few exceptions the leading features of the business situation this week have been those of continued moderate Improvement, although the total volume of business, so far us indicated by bank clearings throughout the country, will require considerable expansion to compare favorably with corresponding totals two years ago. Nearly all the more important business centers west and northwest report moderate activity, but few of them announce new features.

Koitr WniiTH. Tex.. 0»»t. 20.- The westbound Texas & Pacific through, train for California leaving here at y.05 a. tn., was robbed about noon Friday. 70 miles west of here, near (fordou. The robbers secured about 820,-: 0U0 from tho Pacific Express company, and but for their inability to open the safe of the Texas it Pacific Coal company containing 820,000 in gold, would have made a better haul. Four men did the deed. They came upon a section gang about,noon, covered them with Winchesters and forced them to spread tho rails and llag the oncoming train. The engineer and fireman were then liued up with the section gang and guarded, while two men entered the express car and COY-: ered the messenger before ho was aware of their preseuce. Messenger Marshall was ordered to open the safe containing tho money of the Texas & Pacific Coal company. Telling them he could not do this, they seized a pick and ruined the combination, but could not open the safe. The robbers fled southward, and no trace of them has yet been secured. Rewards aggregating $l,00u have been offered for their arrest. The money secured was taken from the way safe.

W«r« I'rolmMv ProfeftBlonnlt.

The trainmen say that the robbers did not occupy more than thirty minutes in the job and acted as if professionals of long experience. The robbers kept an eye on the mail clerks, but did not bother the mail pouches or the passengers. Tho work was done BO quietly and quickly that the passengers were ignorant that anything of the kind was transpiring until nearly over. It is supposed the robbers had confederates in hiding near by with horses to aid the gang in escaping, because there was uo sign of horses near tho railroad.

After tlie Tbloves.

When the robbers disappeared the train was run with tho throttle wide open to Gordon, from which point the railway, express and county otlicers were notified by telegraph of the crime. Posses were formed at once to pursue the bandits. When the train arrived at Thurber an engine loaded with a posse armed for business was found waiting under a full head of steam, and it was hurried to the scene of the daring hold-up.
