REED AT CHICAGO.
Thomas 1$. Reed addressed an immense audience in the armory of the First Regiment I. N (J., Saturday night. He said, in part: "Our market has grown smailer and smaller. Until the year 1892 our market was the greatest market in the world. Do you know what made it the greatest market? What makes a great market? What is a great market? Jt is a placc where people have money to spend. [Applause. When we left off having money to spend, in Just that proportion wo left olf being a market. Cheapness without a cent of money in your pocket to buy with is bitterness to the soul."'
Speaking of the statement of a Democratic paper that cotton cloth is a cent cheaper than a year ago, Mr. Reed said that might le that the men who made that cloth get their cloth 10 per cheaper, but have lost 23 per cent, on their wages.

One week ago William Dolhy. colored, criminally assaulted Mrs. Iloyd, aged fifty-live, at Parrott's Station, near Washington C. 11. He was captured at Dela,ware, O., Oct. 17, and taken to Washington C. II. at 4 p. in., and was immediately drought into court, whero he pleaded ^guilty and was sentenced to twenty years in the penitentiary. A mob had already (gathered, and Sheriff Cook, fearing trou"ble, called on tho local militia for assistjance. This action seemed to Increase tho frenzy of tho mob, and Gov. Mclvlnley was appealed to for more troops, which were at once sent on from Columbus'. jWliile Dolby was being taken from tho jail to tho court house tho mob made a dosperate attempt to secure the [prisoner, but were driven off by bayonets land clubbed guns. After thesentence tho mob gathered around the courthouse and It was impossible to take the prisoner out ,to the train. Tho mob grew rapidly in numbers and desperation. Col. Colt made it speech, asking the crowd to disperse, but it was received with jeers. The prisoner was prostrate from fear and lay cryJng and moaning all tho time. The mob kept Dolby and his guards prisoners in the courthouse until (5 p. in. and then made an attack. The militia repelled them without firing at first, but at 0:-15 p. m. the south door was forced open. This tloor opens upon the street, which was filled with men, women and children. Tho detachment of the guards finally fired on the attacking party. None of the latter wen hurt, but a dozen or more persons In the street were struck, two killed outright and four more fatally wounded, one having since died.
The excitement became dangerous. The people threatened to dynamite the court house and additional troops were ordered to the scene from Cincinnati and other points. At 1 a. m., 'Thursday morning, the town had become comparatively quiet and Dolby was still at tho court house under strong guard. It was expected that a sutlicient force of troops ivould be on hand at 4 o'clock to render another attempt to take him to the train successful. There was still fear of dynamiters however. Gov.

Harrison's Trip Through Northera Indiana.
(topetltlon of the Cordial Greetings to the Kx-Prcsident—Republican Kutliuiilniu si —No to* and Incidents.
General Harrison and party left Indianapolis, Friday morning, on his second speech-making tour, tho objective being Ft. Wayne. The weather was extremely favorable and continued so throughout the trip. The tirst stop was made at Noblesville. The town was alive to the importance of the occasion and was profusely decorated. A stand had been erected In tho court-houso yard from which Mr. Harrison addressed a crowd of at least 3,0J0. At Cicero a short stop was made, a committee having been sent from that small town, especially to arrange with tho State committee for a short speech. A good crowd listeued to lien. Harrison's remarks. At Arcadia the train slowed uu only, and lien. Harrison stood on tho car platform and acknowlsdged the cheers of the assembled people. At Tipton the speech was mado at tho railroad junction. Mr. Swoveland escorted the distinguished speaker to thu stand, about which a crowd estimated at 3,000 had gathered. Gen. Harrison's speech was brief. Among othor.thiugs hesaid: "We have had hard times and the hardness has touched every one. The capitalist who had money invested in stocks and bonds has found their value enormously shrunk. His interest has been defaulted, his checks have been passed and his wealth greatly curtailed. Thu manufacturer who depended upon the profit of ii is mill has been without prolit. He has attempted to save himself from loss by shutting down the mill and putting out the tires. He has been contented to lose the interest on the investment in his plant. '1 he. workiiigman, whose entire support of his wife and children and his own maintenance was in his daily wages, has found it all swept away, and he hai been fortunate if he had a little storo to tide him over. .Many a stalwart, honest, hard-woruing, independent Ameridan workman has been compelled to appeal to his fellow men for help—a thing he never did before. This condition has come upon us following a period of the highest prosperity, and the beginning of it was coincident in time with Uie sin-cess of the Democratic party. This has nothing to with the question of who Is President it is not a question of who your Congressman is, much less is it a question ol who your grocer is. It is a question of thu principles and policies of the party that is in control of the gouernment."
At the conclusion of the address, which was well received, the train left Immediately for Kokorno, where a tremendous outpouring of people awaited his arrival. The exercises of the day were held in tha public square, which was a surging mass of enthusiastic Republican?, At the conclusion of the uddress the Harrison special train was at once switched off onto tho Clover Leaf and left for Marlon, where it was met by a crowd of 10,003. M'lie reception at this point was said to iiave been remarkable. At 2:tC the departure was made from Marion after tha i:su il address by the ex-President, Hon. A. Harris hejp- leTt be

At Fort ayne a vast meeting occurred Friday bight and Mr. Harrison made a set speech I'f great length, exhaustively discussing the questions at issu In conclusion he tuiii:
Are we to elect a new Democratic Confri'ess to succeed thisoue'.' ,.\re we to sa^ hat, we. like this condition of uncert.aiiitj JMi'l uuresiV If you choose a Democratic Congress. I should think that is what von line.

They will not lie able to •pas-, a now tarill' bill, but the country will junder-»tand that, this war is not, to be rejiewed. I should think that many a •Democrat might fall into that, way ol think ing no w. and say: "1 will see about it (two years from now. when the great campaign is on. but for the nresent I am willing there should be a Republican House id Representatives, in order that there shall bean end to this fearful business apprehension and uncertainty."
I lieso issues are in vonr hands they tire worthy of y:ur calmest, fullest and most, intelligent, thought Every man whu hears me and he!:eves iliese things should bestir himself to bring about a result this fall that, will lie notice to all hat the people meal: to resume business in this coun try.
Tho return trip, Saturday, was by way of Larwell. Columbia City, Warsaw, Plymouth. Rochester. Peru. Logansport, Delphi, Lafayette and Lebanon, at all ol which places Gen. Harrison addressed large crowds, and the scenes were but a repetition of the provious day's programme. Notwithstanding the extra stops, the train arrived at Indianapolis on {schedule time at 7:20. (leu. Harrison was driven at once to his home. Though very much fatigued, hi! was by no means exhausted with his remarkable day's work, and his last, speech at. Lebanon was fully as vigorous as the lirst one at Noblesville.
HILL'S CANVASS.
Senator Hill spoke at Rochester, N. Y.. Thursday evening, to a large and enthusiastic audience. He referred to Cleveland as "our patriotic President," and Uie sentiment was lou lly cheered, fn tha course of his remarks he deprecated the personalities of the present campaign, and said he had hoped to discuss the real Issues at stake. In concluding, he said: "I know that throughout this State our Republican friends do not seem to take that view of their duty. 1 do not proposo to Imitate their example. [Applause.] I have not time to notice every political dog that barks at me in this campaign. I pro|ose to present to you as fairly and is emphatically as I can what I regard as the Issues upon which we are to pass, and whether you agree or disagreo with ine it makes no (inference, you will hear mo for the sake of my cause."
