An Old Bachelor Who lias 3Iade Ilia Fortune in the West Frank Nelson, of Greencnstle, Fails. Frf clM to the Indianapolis JonraVDelphi, lad., kept. 2S. After an absence of forty-one fears, und after being mourned &a dead for moie than a quarter of a century, John Turpie. brother of Senator David Turpie, has returned to this city. Of the large family living eonth of this city when ho left, the father, mother and two sisters are now dead, ono brother lives in Kansas City and other in Washington. Robert Turpie. an eccentrio baohelor. now occupies the old homestead, and is the solo surviving one of the family in this county. The story of John Turpie's life, if corroctly told, would road liko a romance. In 1S.73 he left this place in comp&ny with his chum. Dob Dickey. Dickey took doivn with the measles, at Hannibal. Mo., and. alter nursing him for two weeks. And seeing him on the way to recovery, Turpie left him, to join a caravan across the plains to fcalem, A. T. He drove an ox team that entire distance, and for the subsequent forty years never fiw a face from nis old home, neither received any information from any one living here. He pent three years with the Indians, in hunting and trapping, in the mines and piueries, and as a sailor on the Pacitio ocean. In appearance John Turpie is almost an exact duplicate of his brother David. He now makes bis homo in Astoria, Ore. He says his brother visited that plnco four or live years nco with a number of other Senators, but as he was busy at the time he did not take the trouble to look Dave ut. Unlike his distinguished brother, John '1 nrpie is a stalwart Republican. Hois unmarried, and says be has enough goods and chattels to protect him agaiost privation and waut in his old age. F1CANK SLLSOX ASSIGNS. Crippled by ilia Advances to the Sluncle Nail Works. Sf eclalto the Indianapolis Journal. Gkf.ekcastle. Ind., Sept. 2S. No little surprise and much sympathy were occasioned in this city this morning when It was unnounced that Frank 1. Nelson bad made an assignment for the benefit of his creditors. Mr. Nelson had long been rated as one of the wealthiest men in Putnam county, bis possessions in land, bank and rolling mill stock and property in this city aggregating nearly a quarter of a million of dollars. He was a heavy stockholder in the Muncio nail works, and it is supposed that his advances to the company, amounting to over 50.000. conplt'd with the general depression in business, led to his embarrassment. His liabilities cannot now be learned, but bis assets at anything like a fair valuation are amply sutlicient to cover them. Quinton liroadstreet and James H. C. Nelson, a brother of the assignor, are named as assignees. Knkomo Firm Falls for $10,000. 8 fecial to the Indlauauohs Journal. Kokomo, Ind.. Sept. 28. The W. G.

Chicago, Sept. 2?. James McGrath. a young desperado who has been arrested ten times for every year of his life and has deen charged with almost every offense in tho criminal calendar, was killed to-night while resisting arrest for fatally shooting Thomas Beebani, one of bis companions. McGrath aud Peeham were drinking beer in a barn in tho rear of No. S2 Henry street, and a quarrel arose. It ended when McGrath shot lieebam through the head. Word was sent to all polio stations that McGrath was wanted, and ofliccrs from all parts of the city were soon in pursuit. For some hours no trace of him could be fouud, but word was finally received that he bad been seen at Thirtieth and Halsted streets trying to sella revolver for 70 cents. This clew was also lost, and it was not until late in tne afternoon that o flicer a Michael Fleming and William Butler met a man at the corner or Fifteenth and Canal streets whom they thought was Mc(irath. They passed him. however, und walked on several yards, when otlicer Fleming said to otlicer Uutler that he was positive that tho man standing at the corner was the man wanted for shooting lieebam. They turned about and advanced towards tbo man. who was still standing at thn corner. Otncer Potior approached him and s lid: "Will yon tell me what yoar name is!'' "You want to know my name, doyout" said the fellow, with a curse; "well, this is it." and as he spoke he drew a revolver and tired point blank at Butler's bead. The boiler, however, went wide of its mark and struck Edward Jackson, who was walking on tho other side of the street, breakinr bis nose. McGrath tired a second time, pointing bis weapon at Otbccr Fleming. The ollicers had drawn their own weapous when McGrath fired the first time, and as he pulled the trigger tho second time both bred at him. One ball passed directlv through his heart, killing him instautly. the other striking him In the nrmpir, indicting a wound that ! would have proved fatal. Mcurath's last bullet went through Fleming's left leg.milicting a serious wound. McGrath has for years been a terror in the southwest part of the city. His cider brother, John, was even worse than .lames, and was once sentenced to the penitentiary for life for killing an officer. He escaped this sentence on a technicality, and is now doing twentylive years in Joliet for burglarr. Bebam, McGrath's tirst victim, is dyicg in the hospital. Attendance t 'he Fair.

1IR. CLEVELAND FIRM
His Friends Say Ho Won't Accept Amendments to the Eepeal Bill, No Progress Made by Would-Be "Compromisers" or Advocates of Night Sessions of the Senate. SCHEME OF PENNSYLVANIA Proposed Combination of Protected Interests and Silverites. Why Cameron Was Not Censured for His Speech Peller Talks Acainst Eepeal Private AVar Claims. Washington. Sept. 23. There is good reason for belioving that tho intention ot the repoal Senators of making an attempt on next Monday to force night sessions of the Senate, which was so strongly hinted at yesterday, has been abandoned, or that the day will be postponed until later in week. There Is no doubt that an elTorc was made on both sides of the chamber to sacure au aareement looking to night sessions, and that Monday was the day the Senators having the matter in hand named as tho time for inaugurating the movement. It wonld appear, however, from the developments to-day, that they were not successful in socuring the acquiescence in the programme which they had expected. The Senators as a rule hesitate to take this extreme step, out of consideration for their own comfort as well as because of their wish not to appear harsh towards the minority. The fact has also been ascertained that several of the repeal Senators would be absent from the city during the week, and that on tbis account the repeal advocates will not be so strong next week as ordinarily. Senator Voorhees. when asked about the programme, refused to express himself at alb He generally talks very freely upon questions concerning which he thinks the public has a right to information, and bis silence in tho present instance wonld indicate that the programme for night sessions has not yet been perfected. 1 There was more talk of compromise' about the Senate to-day than has been heard for a week, but it did not take any definite form. A prominent Republican Senator, who has not so far taken any part in the preseut debate, was engaged during tbo greater part of the day in trying to get Senators on both sides of the question to agree to a proposition for the purchase and coinage of S3.000.000 of silver per month for the next three years, but met with many obstacles. Tho especial supporters of the President asserted that he wonld aocep - no amendment whatever, and tire-"' ''silver Senators made the objection that to place the limit of purchase at a time within Mr. Cleveland's administration would be to simply postpone the blow, and it might almost as well fall now. Senator Faulkner was also engaaed in canvassing bis proposition, but with no better result than in the case of the Republican Senator. Nothing was accomplished in any direction, but the events of yesterday and to-day have caused many more Senators than usual to assort to-day that a compromise is the only way out ot tho present entanglement. SCHEME OF ntOTECTIONISTS. Proposed Alliance of Manufacturers and Silverites f the West. Washington, Sept. 28. The speech of Senator Cameron in favor of the free coinage of silver continues to attract attention here, not only because it is a startling and unusual attitude for a Republican Senator from an Eastern State like Pennsylvania to take, but because of the events that are crowding tho heels of the speech in Pennsylvania. At the meeting of the Republican League at Reading, yesterday, an attempt to censure Senator Cameron for his course was defeated by a two-thirds majority. An explanation of this failure to censure Senator Cameron, and. indeed, of the attitude ho has taken, is furnished by the intelligence that has reached here that a movement is on foot among the protected manufacturers of Pennsylvania to effect a combination between the protected interests and the free silver men, which shall have for its aim the defeat of the legislation looking to tarill reduction and the gratification of the West's demand for free coinage under modified conditions. Some of the members of the Manufacturers' Club, of Philadelphia, led by James Dobaon, the big woolen manufacturer, and Wharton Barker, the banker, are engaged in circulating a petition to the Senate, looking to a consolidation of tho interests of tho protectionists aud the free silverites. Many signatures aro being procured. Tho scheme is to defeat the new tariff bill and give to silver, first, free coinage of silver upon payment by the owner of a seignorage absorbing threefourths of the diflerence in the market price (London) of bullion and its coined value; second, the prohibition of foreign' silver for coinage purpose, except at a seignorace that will absorb all the difference between tbo market price and the mint value, and, third, an international monetary conference, including all the nations ot the world, except gold monometallic countries, for the purpose of arriving at an international agreement. The claim Is setup that the interests of silver and protection am identical. The plan mapped ont by the Pennsylvania manufacturers, it will be observed, follows clcsely the idea of Senator Cameron's speech, except that the former provides against an influx of foreign silver to the mints by absorbing all the difference between tbo market and the coined value of silver, while the latter placet upon foreign silver an inhibitory duty. The scheme is to align the interests of silver and protection, and by this means prevent adverse tariff legislation and secure more liberal silver legislation. It in an alliance, the suggestion of which is fraught with great possibilities, if it were practicable, but its successful operation would mean the breaking down of party lines, perhaps, and an entire readjustment of party politics. The proposition, while it seems chimerical, will doubtless attract a great deal of attention throughout the country. Hoth Mr. Dobson and Mr. Barker were .i)ro to night conferring with the silver Senators with regard to their movements. Thsy declare that the alliance is feasible, and atleet to be quite confident that it will accomplish its purpose. SENATOR l'EFrmt TALKS. Cleveland's Letter Used n Text A Quiet Day In thi Upper Hons. Washington, Sopt. 28. The day in tho Senate was as calm as the proverbial mill pond, and there were several amusing incidents in striking contrast with the sharp thrusts and the bitter retorts of yesterday. While Mr. IVflor was upcaking Mr. Hoar asked a question in a tone maudiblo on the other side of the chamber, and Mr. Harris sarcastically observed that if the inter
view between the Senator from Kansas and the Senator from Massachusetts were not entirely confidential, the Senators on the other side wonld be glsd to bear it, Mr. Hoar did not relish the laughter which followed at bis expense, and, turning to the chair, asked if Mr. Harris bad been in order in speaking without rising from bis seat, the rules providing that a Senator in speaking shall rise from his seat. Later. Mr. Dolpa asked Mr. Peller a question, and an intimation from Mr. Stewart that be would like to answer the Senator from Oregon, raised the risibilities of Senators. "The Senator from Nevada I Mr. StewartJ has not been a Populist long enough to be an authority." replied Mr. Pel!er. and Mr.Stewart joined in the laughter which ensued. Notico was given to-day that Senator Morgan, of Alabama, would address the Senate to-morrow on the repeal bill. The resolution ofiered yesterday by Mr. Teller, calling for information as to the anticipution of interest on government bonds since li-80. was taken up the lirst thing to-day. 1Z there was objection to it, Mr. Teller said, he would not debate if. Mr. Voorhees said a literal compliance with the resolution would involve great labor. He asked Mr. Teller to define the scope of that part of tho resolution asking 'under what circumstances interest had been anticipated?" which was the objectionable part of the resolution. Mr. Teller replied that, os the new administration had been iustalled largely because its party had found fanlt with tho financial policy of the administration and of the Republican party.be assumed that it meant a radical revision and reconstruction of the lioancial policy ot the country. After further debate tbo resolution was adopted. The repeal bill was taken np at 1 r. M. Mr. Hoar sent up to the desk und bad read an editorial from tho Peoria (111.1 Journal in relation to the controversy relative to the part taken by Mr. Ernest Seyd, of England, in tho legislation of 1ST3. Tho Journal printed what purported to be a quotation from Mr. Hooper's speech in the liouso ot Representatives to contradict the letter of Mr. Seyd'a son. In this quotation the words referred to Mr. Seyd. "who is now here," were attributed to Mr. Hooper. Mr. Hoar had that part of Mr. Hooper's speech read from the ' Congressional Record, in which words, "who is now here" did not appear. These words, said Mr. Hoar, are a deliberate, vile, audacious, unscrupulous and infamous forgery. Mr. Culloui knew the editor of the Peoria Journal, Mr. Barnes, and while bo was astonished at the misquotation, he was euro Mr. Barnes was not personally responsible for the forgery in tbe'eense of having committed it or being cognizant of it. Mr. Teller also know Mr. Barnes, and felt sure he would be guilty ot no improper conduct in connection with the statement. The debate continued for more than an hour, and then Mr. Peffer addressed the Senate. He sent to the desk and had read the letter of the President to Governor ftortben, of Georgia. The letter did not dissipate, said Mr. Peller. the confusion in tho public mind as to the President's real opinions on the monetary question. He micht be a monometallism ho might be a bimetallism but there was nothing in tho President's lotter to show what kind of a metallist be was! There was but one thing the President insisted upon, and that was the repeal of the Sherman law. While pretending to be a bimetallism as a number of Senators pretended to be; while, pretending that he favored tho use of gold and silver the President mado it plain, if anything in the letter was plain, that he would measure by a Kold standard, whereas the history of the country hud been just the re verso. Gold bad been measured by the silver standard, and Mr. Pefler insisted that tho system bad not. been changed so far as concerned tho law. Mr. Peffer said his amendment, which is the pending one. would give the country bimetallism. "Whenover the administration, represented by its friends upon this lloor," declared Mr. Poh'c.r, "are ready to accept the pending flinehdment or some other amendment ffhich will brine about the restoration of the law of 18U7 they can pass the repeal bill in twenty-five minutes.'7 Mr. Poller's speech covered a wide range of subjects. Tho opening of the Cherokee Strip, the methods of loaning money on Western farm lands, the employment of armed forces in difficulties between employers and employes, and tho loaning of money at usurious taten were all discussed incidentally to the original question. When he was denouncing the loaning of money at what be called usurious rates Mr. Hawley inquired it the Senator from Kansas had any money he wanted to loan without interest. Mr. Peffor. unfortunately, wasn't in a condition to do that, but when he bad. in the past, loaned money bo thanked God be had not exacted interest for its use, and he never would. Mr. Peffer, at r:10, reached what he denominated the subject of "parties." Then ho paused and said that, while he was willing to continue with his speech this evening And to address the Senate till sunrise- to-morrow morning, be did not desire to exhaust the patience of the Seuate by asKing Senators to remain longer than they wished to. Mr. Harris thereupon moved an executive session, after which the Senate adjourned. RAID ON THE TREASURY.
31 any Private War Claims to De Reported from Hoase Committees. Washington, Sept. 2S. "Private war claims are to be the order of the day," Bays a morning newspaper. "A day does not pass that dozens of bills are not introduced and referred to the committee to which tbey belong. These war claims possess an Important interest for western Maryland, northern Virginia, West Virginia and southern Pennsylvania. In addition to many private claims, Mr. McKaig has introduced bills providiug for the payment of 8JOO.00O to tho city of Frederick, $3,003 to Hagerstown, and SI. 500 to Middletuwn. All these claims grew ont of the raids of Gen. Jubal Early, who levied the above sums upon the several towns after their invasion. Tuesday, however, Mr. Beltzboover. of Pennsylvania, succeeded in having reported favorably by the war claims committee, of which he is chairman, his bill for the payment of &j.o47,'.M5J4 to residents of southern Pennsylvania for damages sustained because of the invasion of confederates and the presence of Union forces during the late war. "These Pennsylvania warclaims grewout of three expeditons into the State in 1S1',2 by General Stewart, in lbOj by General Lee and in IbCi by Gen. Jubal Early.

The town was invested by the entire command of Johnson and McCausland and a demand made on the people for S1CO.O00 in gold or STiOO.COo in government funds as a ransom, a number of citizens being arrested ami held as hostages for its payment. No offer of money was made by the people, and the town wan burned by the confederate forces on July :X). 18C4. The most expensive raid to Pen nay Ivaniar.s was the raid of 1S"4 by General Early.

FAST TDIE IN THE 2:20 PACE May Marshall and Will Kerr Beaten by Speedy Hal Braden. Free-for-All Won by Manager ilatch Running Kaco Won from Lamplighter by Tammany. Src!a! to the Inrtlar.BDO'.ls Journal. Tfkuk Haute. Ind., Sept. 2?. Ten thousand peoplo had no occasion to display their pent-up enthusiasm when the queen of turf trottrrs tried to lower the world's record, but as many lovers of the light harness saw a new world's record nailed to the mast here in the most remarkable pacing race ever witnessed. Of course the crowd was largely drawn by the effort of Nancy Hanks to lower ber own record. Tho track was perfect, but tbo other conditions were lacking. First, it was known that Mr. Doblo was a very sick man so eick, in fact, that only by administering powerful medicines hypodermically could be be mado strong enongh to sit in the sulky. Then, when the little mare came out for a warming up heat, with Charley Doble behind ber, it was noticed that she seemed a trifle tucked up or lame, and the last cutting a figure was the cool northwest wind, not at all to the liking of the tenderly cared for mare. It was bat i o'clock when Nancy Hanks, with Mr. Doble holding the ribbons, came down past tue grand stand and received a salvo of applause. Tho noted driver wore a haggard look, and going aronndyfor an easy mile, was soen to stop at the half as if too Hi to drlvo the little mare homo. Bat bo had set his heart on the effort, and in spite of the warning of his physician, be scored down for the work, with the runner. Artist, on the wheel to urge the mare along. The first quarter was done in 31 seconds, and when the half was gone in 1:03 a sigh went up from the big crowd.
