Democrats Sorry They Charged Mr. IIoIloran, of Eiwcod, with Flopping Back. Letter Ttrrilly Sarins Bis Former Political Friends from the Converted President of the Llwood Iron Works. EeYeridge Addresses the Biggest Meet-. ing at Richmond This Year. Hon. W. Pcdl-j Fculke Fcund Little Enconrazrment Down in Orange County ililler an J Cooler to te at Ilwool NO MOIIC A DEMOCRAT. Mr. Ilolloran Says Iriah-Amerlcans Will ReMt the Inanlt to E;;an. Sr-ecial to the Inlianapolis JoarnaL Nobles viixk. In J., Nor. L Democrats here have hurled a rentable boomerang, which, as everyone knows, is that peculiarly fashioned Australian weapon that once thrown returns with eqnal force to where the projector stood, and often, in case of an unskillful thrower, may give him a terrible jolt in the neck or below the belt, as the case may be. In this case it is perhaps both. The fact that Mr. John Ilolloran, a once good Democrat, and president of the LI -rood iron-work, had come oat for Harrison was a bitter announcement and was doing the "wild-cat" party much damage in Hamilton and Madison counties. 80 many Democrats in this vicinity, however, have come out as Republicans that Mr. Holloran'a change was not attracting the attention among Kepublicans it otherwise might hare until recently, when Democrats hereabouts, with much blaster and astounding falsity, libeled Mr. Ilolloran by circulating the story that , he was still a Democrat and was going to rote that ticket. This audacious claim aroused Republicans and Mr. Ilolloran was appealed to for au explanation of his real position. In reply, the following letter from hi m was received to-day. As said before, it is a dangerous boomerang, for in it Mr. Ilolloran has an opportunity lobrandhistraducers as unscrupulous falsihers and to read all Democrats a lesson that is likely to result In swinging into the Republican ranks numerous Democrats who stop to study Mr. Ilolloran' reasons for becoming a Republican. In tbetirsi place, Mr. Ilolloran says that Democratio papers, by their wholesale misrepresentations, have been making Republican votes, which is no doubt tbe cane. Next, he says that he did not become a Republican until he had devoted nearly a year to a study of tbe position of the two parties, and that finally "protection to American industries and American workmen,'' together with the present prosperous condition of tbe times as a result of that policy." caused him to proclaim himself a Republican. Farther, he bats all reports to tbe contrary are false. From this piece of misrepresentation Mr. Ilolloran wades into bis. former political frieuds and says they have always been misrepresenting things. "It is not necessary," says his' letter, "thatlsbonld go beyond Klwood for an example. Take the American tin-plate-works. When the company was organized tbe Democratic papers told ns it was only for 'booming town lots.' When the buildings were completed they told us there would never be any tin-plate made in Elwood. When the ponderous engines and machines wero placed in position they told us it was to be a 'rolling-mill for rolling b(.r-iron.' When the works were ready for work they told ns the company was only 'dipping imported plates.' Now. when they see tiu-plate manufactured here, rolled from steel billets, dipped in American tin by American workmen, they say it can be done 'cheaper7 in Europe. Of course it can, because wages are 'cheaper' there. "Bnt they also tell us th tin-plate-work will bo closed after election, and are only run in the interest of the Republican party. If that be true. I would ask why the enormous works to employ two thousand men are being builded at Gas City, and at Atlanta, neither of which will be ready for - operation until long after the election!" After further summing up the Democrats' 'position, with all ttio eloquence of an experienced orator. Mr. Ilolloran says: "I have another reason for supporting the Republican ticket. I am proud to say that 1 am an 'Irish-American and 1 notice with alarm that tbe English press is band in hand with the Democratio press of this country in the support 01 tho Democratio national ticket. This cannot be denied. Cleveland and Stevenson are not only candidates of the Democratio party of this country, but they are also candilate of free-trade England." Mr. Ilolloran then calls attention to the scurrilous treatment of Minister Patrick Egan by the Democratio and the British press, and says it would be an insult to the true manhood of the Irish character to say that -tbsir insults to his race will not be resented. . Another Vote for Tlarrlsoo. Special to the InClanapclls Journal. Ckawfordsvillk. Ind., Nor. 1. John II. Downs, a life-long Democrat, has an nounced through the newspapers that as he is opposed to "the present tax-law. th gerrymander, the return to the 'wild-cat' banking system, and is eatisiied with the present administration, believing that the country is in the most prosperous condition since be could remember; therefore, he deciarcs iuai ne is ior the American eagle. General Harrison and the entire Republican ticket." Mr. Downs is a prominent Xarmer and announces his determination to vote the Republican ticket after a complete canvass of the situation. There ars alio many other former Demowho will cast their first Republican vote next luesaay. me uepublicans are closing the campaign in Montgomery county with a determination to carry the county for tbe entire Republican ticket. A systematic canvass has been made and eterything looks hoDelul. It is reported that Democrats are ollering $i to Republicans if they will not vote and they are in desperate straits. Hon. 1. S. Kennedy closes the campaign in this city next Monday night. Hon. A. J. Rereridce. of Indianapolis, will speak here on Thursday evening. Montgomery county was carried by Harri. n in lh; and the outlook is favorable for the same thing being done again. AL1IE11T J. DEVUKIDGG AT RICHMOND.

auspices of tho First Voters' Club. Mem

bers of the club, headed by the inchmona Bugle Corps, one of the finest in the Htate, composed of twenty-eight young men, escorted the speaker. Hon. A. J. Beveridpe, from the hotel to the opera-house, un the atajre was seated the First Voters' Club. Tbe boxes were tilled with voters of 1310, while the auditorium and nailery were packed with an audience eager to hear the gifted young Indiauapolis speaker. He first reviewed the history oi tariff legislation, showing the etlecta of every tariu law, both rovenue ana pro tective. He showed that tbe experience or the lust century demonstrates that tbe po sition of the Republican party is tho cor rect one. He then discussed the eflects ot reciprocity and the other issues of the campaign in 'his eloquent manner. He took the audience by storm, the applause at frequent intervals being almost deafening. SI3IPI.Y TALK, TALK, TALK, BBaiBaBHaaBt Hjnum Growing Less Popular Every Day end Is Aware of It. Special to the Indlanipolis J onmaL Summitvillf, Ind., Nov. E For two weeke it has been advertised that W. D.' Ryu urn, the alleged friend of the farmer and workingnan, would speak hero, and it was intended to make it the crowning effort of tho campaign in this soction, but at the hour announced there were only congregated about two hundred persons, of whom one-third were Republicans. Mr. Bynum delivered one of his characteristic time-worn speeches of misrepresentation and misconstruction, and gaye figures and proof for nothing. In speaking of currency he eaid State currency, although elastic, the value risingand falling as business demanded, was as good as national bank notes backed by government bonds. He attempted to explain that freo trade was in tbeinterestof the wage-earner, and said there never was a greater fallacy than our home markets, and that Cleveland would give SI per bushel for wheat if elected. Then he ruide his usual denial of the statement made in the earlier part of the campaign that he never said tin-plate could not be made in this country. In conclusion, he spoke of President Harrison in a very disrespectful manner, such as is unbecoming in any American, it was easily discernible that Mr. Bynum was not as enthusiastic as in the past, and he seems to bo cognizant of the fact, lion. R. A. Iliack's Telling Speech. Special to the Itdlanavolis Journal. Greenfield, Ind., Nov. 1. To-night Hon. R. A. Blacfc, of this city, made the ablest Republican speech that has been made here this year. He spoke for two and a half hours to one of the best audiences of the campaign, composed of business and laboring men, and gavehis entire attention to the tariff. Having been in Europe during tbe past summer he compared the condition of the laboring people of Europe with those of America. He also exposed the lies of Democratic orators concerning the price of American machinery in Europe. It sells 50 per cent, higher there. The speaker read from English and Scotch papers . and all were unanimously for the election of Cleveland, as tbe McKinley bill was removing English wealth and Scottish factories to America, Of the hundreds of English workingmen Mr. Black conversed with he never met one that owned his own home, or one that knew a workincman that did own his own home. Mr. Rlack is an Irishman, but every inch an Americau, and prefers. America before the world. He has lived here lor twenty-live years, and his speech did a vast amount of good. Fonlke Forgot the Soldier. Special to the Iartlaoapo la Journal. Orlkans, Ind., Oct. SI. Hon. W. Dudley Fonlke. the great civil-service reformer, spoke here to-day. It waa to have been the big gun of the campaign and while it was widely advertised and the bushes were all heat, the crowd was smalL He devoted much of his time to tariff reform and civil service matters, but not a word was eaid about the soldier or the "wild-cat" money. He advocated free trade as his reform of tbe tariff.. One pleasing feature was that his audience was made up of oldtime Democratio wheel-horses and there was not a yountr voter of the Democratio persuasion in his audience. So thoroughly did he disgust his audience that before he was half through his "reform" argument one-half the seats wero emptied. Final Itnlly at Iiope. Special to the Indianapolis Journal. IIorK, Ind., Nov. 1. Republicans of f astern Bartholomew county held their closing rally to-day, and thousands were in attendance. Hon. II. S. Kenwortby, of Iowa, spoke in tbe opera-house at 2 o'clock, every available seat being occupied and hundreds turned away disappointed at not getting to hear the distinguished orator. .He held his audience for two hours. His searching investigation of the Democratic record for the last thirty years enlisted the closest attention, and his many witty hits were greeted with rounds of hearty applause, lo-night Lonhres and skyrockets illuminated the heavens, and thousands, led by tbe coronet band and drum corps, paraded the streets, and C. F. Kemy addressed a largo crowd at the operahouse. . riatnmond Can't Kren Make a Speech. Special to the Indianapolis Journal. N Crown Point, Ind.. Nov. 1. Hon. William Johnson, Republican candidate for Congress in this district, began his canvass in this county Friday, speaking to a large crowd at Lowell on that afternoon and at East Chicago in the evening. Saturday he speke to tho largest crowd that has been in this city the present campaign. If any one has any doubts that the Tenth district will send a Republican to the next Congress, it is some one who does not livo in this district. Ev-n the Democrats admit thnt Judge Johnson is far superior to the Democratio candidate, Thomas Hammond, who Is not even able to make a campaign speech, not to speak of other disabilities. Gurley Ilrewer Haw in Illinois. Special to tfce liidlanapoll Journal. Paris 111-, Nov. 1.

BURKED LIKE TINDER. Chicago Fire-Proof Athletio Club Building Destroyed Frenzied Hotel Guesta. Chicago, Nov. tl. Between 1$ and 3 o'clock this morning great volumes of smoke and rlamo wero eeen to issue from the fourth story of the new Chicago Athletic Club building on Michigan avenue, near Madison. Right in tbe rear of the club-house were the Continental Hotel and the St. Bernard Honse, while on the soath and north were the Chicago fire cycloramaand the Western Bauk-note Building. The club-house was supposed to be fire-proof, but it burned like tinder, and before a lire company could get on the ground the whole interior of tbe structure was a seething furnace. The guests in the two hotels had plenty of time to escape, even though the lire bad spread. But they became frenzied by the eight of the llames so near, and began tumbling over each other in an endeavor to escape what seemed certain death. Probably a dozon clambered down tho hre-oscape in neglige costumes, some with their wearing apparel under thoir , arms, while others had nothing at all. The majority reached the street via the staircase and every one got out safely. In the meantime the tire was rapidly consuming tho club-house, and in less than forty minutes nothing was left but the bare walls. Great masses of blazing debris were showered on to the cyclorama and bank-note company's building, but were extinguished as fast as they fall. The cyclorama was damaged by water to a considerable extent. The los on the club building is variously estimated at from $80,000 to t K5.0UIX It was still in the hands of tbe contractor, who had not yet turned it over to the Athletic Association. Tbe union carpenters who had been employed on tho building went out on a strike only a few hours before the fire started. The llames broke out simultaneously on four different floors. The carpenters' strike was in sympathy with a strike by the electrical mechanics, who quit some weeks Ago becanso the contractor refused to discharge non-unionists. Incendiarism at Cleveland. Cleveland, Nov. 1. This mornirg an attempt was mado to burn the Star Theater on Euclid avenue.

The elevator boy says a young man went up the stairs a short tune before- the lire broke out, There is a feeling of apprehension throughout the eity over the apparent determination of tire-bugs to destroy these blocks.

' ST0RI OF A BANK. It Was of the Wild-Cat Variety, and Was Per haps the Wildest of That Numerous Family. To the Editor of the Indianapolis Journab In 1S53 I moved to Morocco, Ind. lo cated in what was then Jasper county. It was but a small hamlet of some ten or twelve houses, and about forty miles west of what was then called Bradford, now Monon, which was tbe nearest railroad station. In the summer of 1854 I went to Cincinnati and there I saw money in circulation on the Bank of America at Morocco, Ind. Having left Morocco bat a few days before, and feeling snre there was no bank there when I left, I could not understand it. and on my return to Morocco a few days after no one there had heard of any bank being established: but in a day or two myself and a Mr. M.. one of my neighbors, were called to Rensselaer on business, and on arriving in the town a Mr. S., the leading official of the place, called us into his office and told us that a bank- had been located at Morocco, and that in a short time parties would ne there with a safe, money, etc., ready to do a banking business, but for fear some of the mony might be sent there for redemption prevailed on Mr. M. . to tako $100 in specie to redeem any stray bills which might come in. A few of the bills were presented in tbe nexvraonth or two, and Mr. M. having paid the 8100 received by him for that purpose, and a like amount of his own money, and no one putting in an appearance to open up the office, he sent a man to Keneselear to find out what had become of the owners of the bank. The messenger hunted up Mr. S., who had furnished the information and tho money on our visit there, and ho eaid the bank had changed hands and he did not know what would be dono in the future. The bank was afterward wound up by' the Auditor and Secretary of State at 80 cents on the dollar. This bank was located in an almost uninhabited country .'forty miles from the nearest railroad and put out t50,000 circulation. There never was an office, safe or officer within twenty miles of the purported place of location. This is only a history of one out of hundreds scattered all over the State at that time. And this is the system our Democratio friends want to resurrect. . J. a. Kemland, Ind., Oct- 31. Movements of Steamers. Bout tampton, Nov. 1. Arrived: Havel, from New York. Queknstowk. Nov.

De Tries to Arrest Tiro Suspicious Character and Is Atsanlted. About midnight last night Merchant policeman Meyers saw two colored men coming out of an alley near the corner of Ash and Cherry streets carrying a basket. . Meyers suspected that all was not right, and stopping them attempted to search the basket. As he stepped np to them he drew his revolver and held it ready for use. While he was searching the basket one of the men quickly drew a revolver and tired. The ball pierced tbe ear and entered the head immediately back of it, taking a course around the skull and coming out at the back of tbe necR. His face was badly powder-burned on account of the proximity of the revolver when the shot was tired. Meyers was stunned and staggered bsok against the fence and the men fled. Meyers quickly recovered, however, and fired two shots at them, bnt is unable to say whether he hit either of tnem or not.

FIGHTING 1HE 8CGA& TUUST. Indianapolis Wholesalers Do Not Want to Have Prices Dictated to Them. Mr. C. T. Osborn. the New Yortc representative of the American Sugar Trust, wai In this city last week, endeavoring, with indifferent results, to interest tbe wholesale grocers of the city in what is culled the 'equality-of-rebate plan." Mr. Osborn also yesterday presented his plan to the wholesale grocers of Chicago, and it was opposed by the firm of Schnnll & Craig, of this city, which' was represented, and rejected by the Chicago tirras. The "euualhy-of-rebate plan" was proposed at the national meeting of wholesale grocers in New, York last June, and wonld have been adopted had it not been for tbe active opposition of Chlcago.snpplemeoted by nearly all the leading houses in Milwaukee, Detroit, Indianapolis, Kansas City and St. Joseph. St. Loaisund a lew other Southern points were in favor of it, but it was temporarily shelved. . The meeting had no sooner adjourned than sly work was begun by the trust audits friends to work the opposition over to tho eohemer and a few weeks ago a very ingenious circular wm sent out confidentially to ttie wholesale grocers. It is ingenious because it seeks to evade the trust law of Missouri, by claiming it would promote competition and at the same time contains the outline of a plan that would totally destrov nil competition and put the sugar trade entirely in tne hands of the trust, with power to diotate price and limit the output. The wholesale grocers of this city say they have not rect-ivud copies of the circular. The mam opposition to the plan seems to be that it wonld not be observed by some, thus working injury to others.
