county their majorities range from 300 to 1 30Q. In El Paso county their majorities is -bout the same. From returns now in it appears that llayt and Gabbert each carried the same number of counties. The vote of the Republican (administration) party in this county was quite a surprise to many, reaching nearly 5.000 in a total of 25,i*X). The leaders of the party claim that the vote Tor Hayt was far in excess of that for their county ticket, the voters realizing the impossibility of electing the latter. KENTUCKY LOST. Democrats Carried the State for Shackelford by 15.000. LEXINGTON, Ky., Nov. 3.—-The headquarters of the Democratic state chairman were not open to-night and no further returns were received. There is little interest in the size of Shackelford's majority as it is conceded to be somewhere in the neighborhood of 15,000. The Democrats have won or increased their vote everywhere. The issues were local, free silver not being an issue in any face from the lowest to the highest. The efforts at fusion between the Republicans and gold-standard Democrats in local contests failed signally, chiefly because the negroes would not support the fusion tickets a large portion of them, it is charged, selling their votes to the Democrats or staying away from registration or from the polls for pay. The Democrats have secured a good majority in the Legislature, but as a senator is not to be elected until after another election is held for representatives Blackburn’s election to succeed Senator Lindsay may not be accomplished, although Blackburn is jubilant over the victory of his party anti very hopeful of again being returned to the Senate. Blackburn is said to be espot ially joyful over the defeat of the goldstandard candidate from his own county, Henry L. Martin, who stood by him in the Legislature so faithfully in two long drawnout senatorial contests. Gobel, state senator ftom the Covington district, a gold-standard man. who posed as a silverite and led Blackburn's fight for re-election, goes to the Senate again, but by a very small margin. The National Democracy's candidate for Appellate Court clerk. Hindman, got fewer votes than expected, as the gold-standard Democrats, on account of fusion with Republicans, generally voted for the Repubii< an candidates, thus reducing the silverite majority. ♦ PLURALITY OF 85,1)50. Roger Wolcott Re-Elected Governor of Ma**nchn*ettn by n Kig Vote. BOSTON, Nov. 3.—The entire vote of the State, with the exception of the town of Gosnold, was completed to-night, and the returns give Walcott 165,370; Williams, 79,414; Everett, 11.134. Owing to the closeness of the vote In the Second Hampden senatorial district the result was not definitely ascertained until to-day, and it now appears that W. B. Mahoney, Democrat was elected over D. H. Ives, Republican, the present Incumbent. This makes the Senate of 1898 stand 33 Republicans and 7 Democrats. The House remains unchanged, 182 Republicans, 61 Democrats, 6 independents and 1 Prohibitionist. The vote lor the remainder of the state ticket runs very close to that of the candidate for Governor. George Fred Williams, Democratic candidate fer Governor, has given out a statement on the election in which he says in ■part: "My views upon yesterday’s election jn Massachusetts are that radicalism under the l)emocrattc name has been strengthened somewhat in its position and emboldened in its course, and will continue in the Held a growing quantity to be reckoned within the near future. The lines are obviously hardening as between Republican conservatism and Democratic .policies of change and upheaval, and between the two no room will evidently be found for building up a leading opposition to Republicanism. What is here said of Massachusetts applies with even greater force to the rest of the country. The results there and in Massachusetts ought to be decisive of the Insignificance of what is called the gold Democratic vote. The farce has ended in Kentucky and it ought to be clear to the little handful in Massachusetts that there Is future possibility either for the maintenance of an organization at the hands of the Democratic party for these gentlemen. I am much pleased that the 3 per cent, has been maintained. To cut down Governor ■Wolcott’s plurality nearly one-half in MasBachusetts is very satisfactory to me, though I am sorry that our voters did not come more generously to the polls. It must be remembered that the Chicago platform has never been tested at the polls ■with an organization behind it. This year the state committee was not in accord with the platform, while next year we shall perfect an organization, I trust, superior to any which the Democracy has had for many years. We shall then for the first time test the real strength of our cause. With respect to the city of Boston I do not care to say anything at present, as I have not the full returns of votes for local candidates. The Indications from all over the country are that Congress will be Democratic and that there will be no change in the issues between now and 1900. For this I am very grateful, and the battle will be kept up in Massachusetts more vigorously than ever,”

CLAIMS OF KANSANS. Republican* Sn> They Have Elected Eight ot Thirteen DlMrlct Judge*. TOPEKA, Kan., Nov. 3.—At a late hour to-night the returns from Tuesday's election In Kansas are still very incomplete. The indications are the Republicans have elected eight of the thirteen district judges voted for. Among Republican leaders here it is positively claimed that the Republicans have elected ten of the judges and they concede three to the fusionists. On the other hand, the fusionists claim to have been successful in eight of the Judicial districts, but no figures are given out. Incomplete and unofficial returns from ninety counties would indicate Republican victories in almost half of the county elections. These returns show that in forty-nine counties the Republicans have elected all or nearly ail of their candidates for county offices. In fourteen counties the- fusionists have elected all, or nearly all, of their candidates. In twentyaix counties the offices are about evenly divided between the fusionists and the Republicans. In one county a straight Democratic ticket was elected. However, in the face of this apparent success of the Republicans in almost half of the counties, Taylor Riddle, chairman of the Populist state organization, issued a statement to-night in which he shows that previous to Tuesday’s election the Populists held only 194 out of over TOO county offices which were filled b> the election and in which he claims that the returns show that the Populists have increased their number of office holders to at least 350 and possibly 375. in Barber county, the home of Jerry Simpson, the Republicans scored a clean sweep. *. . lOWA FUSIONISTS BEATEN. Republican Plurality tVill Probably Be tlntn 30.1MM1. DES MOINES, la., Nov. 3.—Returns by counties are nearly all In now. Chairman McMillan, of the Republican state committee. has complete returns from ninety-tour, grid has estimated returns from the five remaining counties. By this means he has figured a plurality for Shaw, Republicn, of about 31,782. Ho thinks that these figures will vary but little from the corrected returns when tho five estimated counties come in. The plurality may bo set down as above 31,00) and below 32.000. Chairman Walsh, of the Democratic state committee, has given out no figures to-night. He thinks that errors in the returns may reduce the plurality for Shaw to 20.C00.1 The Republican plurality lust year (03.522) is therefore just about cut in two. Two years ago It was 59.000 for Drake for Governor. Then the Populists had a separate ticket. If the Populist vote lie subtracted the Republicans would have a larger plurality this year than two years ago. The legislature is safely Republican. The Senate has fifty members, of which thirtyeight are Republican and twelve Populists and Democrats. The House has one hundred numbers, of whom the Republicans have elected sixty-one and the Populists and Democrats thirty-nine. These figures are subject to slight variations, probably to the advantage of the Democrats. The Republicans lost four members in the Senate and seventeen in the House, compared with the last Legislature, which was overwhelmingly Republican. FUSIONISTS WON. Nebraska Carried by the Ueuio-l'opu-Hnl Combination. LINCOLN, Neb., Nov. 3.—Returns during the day and early evening simply confirmed what was evident at midnight last night—that the fusion state ticket had been elected by a plurality fully as large as that given Bryan last year, if not larger. Early In the afternoon It was generally admitted at Republican headquarters that the State was lost, and Secretary Sixer, of the state eom-

mittee, emphasized the common V. i.at 9 o'clock to-night, when he autb r zeu the following statement: "Returns th is far received by the Republican state committee point to the election of Sullivan < fusion) for Supreme judge by a plurality of from 5.0 m) to leuOO. Returns show that Republican candidates for regents of the university ran ah~*ad of Pest for judge and we will not y. t concede their defeat.” Chairman Edmisten, of the fusion committee. said he had no reason to change his estimate of last night of £O,OOO plurality for the entire fusion ticket. Neither of the political headquarters had returns to-day or to-night in quantity, and their estimates were in a measure surmised. Newspaper returns up to 10 o'clock comprised thirty-one counties complete and four incomplete. Every' populous county but two of these thirty-five sho ,v a fusion gain ana warrants the declaration that fusion has carried the Saite by 12, -00 at least. Returns from thirty-eight counties received up to midnight give Post, Republican, 43,641, and Sullivan, fusion, 49,101, Post’s vote falling 7,279 below that given the Republican candidate for Governor last fall in the same counties.

HURON, S. D., Nov. 3.—Returns from yesterday’s election from eight circuit-court judges show the Republicans have won the following circuits: First circuit, E. G. Smith, of Yankton; Second, J. W. Jones, Sioux Falls; Fourth. Frank B. Smith, Mitchell; Fifth, A. W. Campbell, Aberdeen; Sixth. L. E. Gaffey, Pierre; Eighth, W. G. Rice, Deadwood. In the Third circuit the fusionists have doubtless elected Julian Bennett, of Watertown, and Levi McGee, of Rapid City, in the Seventh circuit. Nfw Jersey Legislature. TRENTON, N. J„ Nov. 3.—The New Jersey Assembly will have a Republican majority of 21 on joint ballot. The latest figures from the different counties show that the Democrats have elected senators in Burlington, Hunterdon, Middlesex, Passaic and Sussex counties, and that Robert F. Hand, Republican, is elected senator from Cape May by about 250 majority. With the holdover senators this will make the Senate stand fourteen Republicans to seven Democrats.

Virginia Nearly All Democratic. RICHMOND, Va., Nov. 3.—The latest returns from yesterday’s election in Virginia give the Democrats all the senators elected and ninety-four and perhaps ninety-five members of the House. The Republicans get four, perhaps five, members of the House and the Independents one member. The Democrats made heavy gains in the southwest and in the valley. VIEWS OF M'KINLEY. Well Pleased with the lleanlt ns Indicated hy Early Returns. PITTSBURG, Nov. 3.—"1 am well pleased with the result of the election, as it indicates that fealty to the Republican party and the principles it represents are as strong as ever.” So speae William McKinley, President of these United States, in the private car Mayflower, at Canton, to a Pittsburg Leader reporter about 1 o’clock this morning. In the car was placed a longdistance telephone and a telegraph operator and here the President, accompanied by Senator Burrows and Private Secretary Porter, sat and received the news of the elections. The President made no effort to disguise the fact that his views w T ere centered iu Ohio and in Senator Hanna. In fact, President McKinley was in constant communication with Mr. Hanna by telephone up to 1 o’clock this morning, when he was assured that all was well by a message telephoned by a member of the Union League Club, of Cleveland. President McKinley, in spite of the late hour at whim lie went to bed last night, was up early this morning and anxious to obtain election news. He did not make any comment on the situation, however, beyond that quoted above, but chatted pleasantly about his \;s,'t to Pittsburg and expressed himself as pleased witn being able to be present at the Founders’ and ly exercises. Secretary Porter said to the reporter that President McKinley w is deeply interesttd in the Ohio campaign. “It is a peculiar election all around,” he said. "You see there are so raanv local issues in the different St iles that the national aspect is lost sight of. In many States the election has resolved itself into a fight against ‘bossism,’ irrespective of party.” The correspondent of the Associated Press handed the President a copy of the election news during the afternoon and asked him if he had anything to say concerning the result. He declined to express any opinion at this time, as he did not know enough about the result to give an expression. BRYAN ENCOURAGED. He Thinks His Course Hus Been Indorsed by the Voters. LINCOLN, Neb., Nov. 3.—Mr. Bryan today gave out the following statement to the Associated Press: 0 "The returns are so incomplete that it is impossible to discuss yesterday’s election in detail. The Republicans everywhere indorsed the Republican administration and in view of losses sustained by them in almost every State it would seem that Republican politics are not being indorsed at the polls. The sentiment in favor of the Chicago platform shows a healthy growth throughout the country. Perhaps our opponents will now mli it that silver is not dead. The attempt to secure international bimettalism has proved a failure and it is now more apparent than ever that the people of the United Statis must legislate for themselves on the financial question. Free and unlimited coinage at 16 to 1 is nearer now than it was a year ago. High tariff on a gold basis has disappointed those .Republicans who looked to it for relief. Taken as a whole the returns are very encouraging. I think I voice the sentiments of Democrats. Populists and silver Republicans when I say that the fight will be continued with even more earnestness until the gold monopoly is broken and the money trust is overthrown. The fusion forces increase their percentage in Nebraska and probaoly their actual majority.” LITTLE ROCK. Ark.. Nov. 3.—The following telegram from \V. J. Bryan was received to-day by Senator James K. Jones: “Nebraska increases her majority for silver. Returns from other States vindicate the Chicago platform. 1 rejoice with you over the outlook.” Views ii( Secretary Sherman. WASHINGTON, Nov. 3.—Secretary Sherman arrived in Washington early tills morning and was at his desk busy with affairs of state, looking as fresh as if he had not voted yesterday at Mansfield, 0., and made the long trip back to Washington over night. The secretary had not received any private advices, but said that he was satisfied from the condition of affairs as known to him last night that the Republicans had

carried the state ticket and the Legislature as well, insuring a Republican senator as a successor to Mr. Hanna. Arknium* Jones Breaks His Silence. LITTLE ROCK. Ark., Nov. 3.-Chairman Jones, of the Democratic national committee, says: "I regard the result of the elections as particularly favorable to the Democratic party and very gratifying to Democrats everywhere. It Is all they could ask and more than many of us expected.” UNKNOWN VESSEL LOST. Large Quantities of Wreckage Seen Floating on the Atlantic. BOSTON, Nov. 3.—The bark Gazelle has arrived here from Para and Barbadoes. Captain Green reported that last Saturday, when 180 miles south of the South shoal lightship, he fell in with an immense amount of wreckage, apparently marking the spot where some large English vessel had foundered. The wreckage included a portion of a vessel’s deck, with knees attached, main ribs and stanchions, planking and pieces of deckhouses, besides the side of a boat, on which was plainly visible the word "London.” There were also about ten packages of pitch pine in the midst of the wreckage, but no spars or rigging were in sight. Judging from the decks and wreckage passed, it is probable that the vessel would carry about twenty-five men. Damage to La Canadienne. MONTREAL, Nov. 3.—The pilotage committee of the harbor board held an inquiry into the Yantic-La Canadienne collision today, which was adjourned until Friday, when additional witnesses for La Canadienne will be heard and the Yantic’s case will be stated. The government, as owner of La Canadienne, was represented by counsel. The charterer, Mr. Lindsay, said today the damage to the Canadienne would amount to $80.0W). Pilot Angers, of La Canadienne, and Helmsman Othot were the principal witnesses. Both testified that the Yantic had changed her course when approaching the Canadienne. In reply to Captain Moore, United States navy, they said the Yantlc turned to the north towards the Canadienne. If the Yantie had kept on her course she would have cleared by 800 feet, while If Canadienne’s helm had been put to starboard she would have gone ashore. Stopping their engines would not have averted the crash. Movements of Steamers. NEW YORK, Nov. 3.—Arrived: Teutonic, from Liverpool. Sailed: St. Louis, for Southampton; Germanic, for Liverpool; Southwark, for Antwerp. QUEENSTOWN, Nov. 3. —Arrived: Pennland, from Philadelphia. SOUTHAMPTON, Nov. 3.—Arrived: St. Paul, from New York. CUXHAVEN, Nov. 3.—Arrived: Patria, from New York. ROTTERDAM, Nov. 3.—Arrived: Obdam, from New York. LIVERPOOL, Nov. 3.—Arrived: Majestic, from New York. HAMBURG, Nov. 3.—Arrived: Scotia, from Baltimore. GLASGOW, Nov. 3.—Arrived: Ancluria, from New York. VAN WYCK'V BIG VOTE. (Concluded from First Page.) istration. The outlook is not very cheering either for the United States or for those having business or political dealings with that country.” The Standard says: “Probably about 80,000 votes were given Van Wyck by pure Tammanyites. Therefore if all really honest citizens had voted on municipal, instead of party, grounds Van Wyck would have been defeated. To a disinterested spectator the manner of the contest conducted by the municipal reform party savors of sheer lunacy. Had either General Tracy or Mr. Low been unselfish and patriotic enough to retire, Tammany might have been defeated.” The Daily Mail, referring to the alleged deal between the New York Republicans and Mr. Croker, says: “In our old-fashioned English opinion the whole business is inconceivably mean and dirty, and the explanation is that America has not yet grasped the outlines of the meaning of Eatriotism.” The paper quotes Mr. Chamerlain’s declarations at Glasgow yesterday that “Leaving politics to politicians, whether in national or municipal affairs, is as fatal to a country as leaving the defense of its territory to mercenaries,” and describes this observation as “so singuarly inappropriate, and yet so curiously relevant, to the condition of things in New York.” The Daily News says: “It is rather difficult to believe that disappointment at the oppression of the Dingley tariff and the omission to reform the currency have had much to do with the result of the municipal election in New York. It is rather doubtful now whether, even if Henry George were living, the result would have been different. Anyway, the consequences are most deplorable. One cannot help, even at a distance, admiring the wonderful Tammany discipline, Croker is a worthy successor of Tweed.” The Daily Chronicle comments on “The chances of Bryanites’ success if Mr. Bryan stands again.”

View* of Berlin Editor*. BERLIN, Nov. 3.—The Tageblatt, commenting on the New York election, deplores the victory of Tammany, “as it places the undesirable elements of the Irish on top,” and concludes: “The victory in Greater New York will have a sinister effect throughout the United States, for it means that the awakening desire for municipal reform has received a terrific setback.” The Vossische Zeitung says that “it cannot be denied that corruption has triumphed.” The Lokal Anzeiger asserts that it sympathizes with “all honest people on the side of Tammany's adversaries.” The National Zeitung says: “It is small wonder that the Republicans were defeated. George’s adherents evidently reflocked to the Tammany banner. The failure to defeat Tammany is a point scored against the Washington administration.” French Opinions'. PARIS, Nov. 3.—The Temps, in its comments on the Greater New York municipal election, says: “The result of the election is deplorable for New Y'ork and the cause of democracy.” The Journal des Debats says: Once again is displayed the incapacity of the honest citizens of New York to organize and shake off the dominion of the political intriguers who exploit and dishonor municipal politics.” _ Blanco Received Coldly. KEY WEST, Fla., Nov. 3.—Marshal Blanco’s reception has been marked by coldness on all sides. This is due to the great dissatisfaction caused by his proclamations. They have disgusted all parties. A former director of the board of the autonomist party said to-day to the correspondent of the Associated Press: We sincerely hoped that we would have au-. tonomy, but now we fell that we are not to have it. Blanco’s policy of amalgamating all political parties will not result as he expects. He is afraid to put only autonomists in office and we refuse to side with the Conservatives and the military elements. We will have only a semi-autonomy, which will serve to increase the general dissatisfaction. By insulting us in his proclamations Marshal Blanco has placed ail talk of surrender on our part out of the question. Gen. Eceta Pay* Hi* Rent. OAKLAND, Cal., Nov. 3.—Carlos Ezeta, ex-President of Salvador, has sued for mercv before an Oakland justice of the peace. He was sued for $35 rent and was ordered into court, but paid no attention to the summons. Ezeta was then arrested on a charge of contempt of court and went to jail for an hour. Now the ex-President has paid his rent and the costs of the suit, and on pleading his of English has been purged of contempt by Justice Clift. Luetarert Will Not Chnnsre Counsel. CHICAGO. Nov. 3.—Adolph L. Luetgert denied emphatically to-day that ex-Gov-ernor Charles P. Johnson, of Missouri, would be one of his lawyers In his ap-' proaching second trial. “I have not sent for Governor Johnson and he will not be in my forthcoming trial,” said Luetgert. "My attorneys will be the same as in the first trial—ex-Judge Vincent and Albert Fhalen. They understand the case and were satisfactory to me.” Miner*’ Waste Conference. PITTSBURG. Nov. 3.—The conference between miners and operators to decide the wages to be paid for mining during next year will be held next month. M. D. Ratehford, president of the United Mine Workers. will enter the conference with a claim for 75 cents a ton as the mining rate for 1898. The operators will make an effort to retain 65 cents a ton as the figure for next year. Reception to Mi** Cimiero*. CHICAGO. Nov. 3.—Senorita Cisnero*, the Cuban refugee, wus given a public reception at the Auditorium this evening. United States Senator William E. Mason spoke on “Cuba." The attendance was not larga.

HER LIFE FOR HER CHUM - FRANKFORT SCHOOL GIRL KILLED OX A RAILROAD CROSSING. Second Trial of Banker Cadwallader at Winchester—Work for Indiana Bloodhounds. ♦ Special to the Indianapolis Journal. FRANKFORT, Ind.. Nov. 3.—Miss Unis Mikesell, a fourteen-year-old girl, was killed by a Lake Erie passenger train this afternoon. She was with Eva Toney, her school chum, and Miss Toney, unmindful of the coming train, had stepped on the track at the street crossing. It was while attempting to rescue her that Miss Mikesell was struck by the train and her skull crushed. The Toney girl escaped with slight injuries. The engineer of the train never stopped the train until he reached the station, when the operator Informed him of what had happened. The same train struck a transfer wagon near the same crossing two weeks ago and badly injured the driver. —♦ SHIPSHEWANA BANK ROBBERS Are Now Being Pursued by a Posse with Bloodhounds. Special to the Indianaiiolis Journal. GOSHEN, Ind., Nov. 3.—The private bank at Shipshewana belonging to the heirs of Hezekiah Davis was looted last night of between $4,000 and $5,000 in cash. Nothing was known of the robbery until this morning when Cashier H. Davis went to open the bank. He found the front doors sprung and the vault blown to pieces. Little was discovered in the nature of a clew, but it is surmised .that the robbers came in from Sturgis, Mich., at about 1:30 o’clock on a stolen handcar and left after the robbery on the same car, which was found in a ditch near Middiebury. The night agent of the Lake Shore at Shipshewana thinks he heard a handcar on the road and shortly afterwards saw three men sneaking about the depot. Bloodhounds have been put on the trail, commencing at the place the handcar was found, and a large posse will assist in the pursuit. Shipshewana is a village of about 500 inhabitants on the Goshen & Michigan branch of the Lake Shore. It is divided into two parts and there are not many residents near the bank. The bank officials are very reticent about the affair, refusing to make any definite statement of the loss. It is only a few days since the Exchange Bank at Wakarusa was blovm open In about the same manner, and the officials think the same crooks did both robberies. Postal Employes Turn Thieves. Special to the Indianapolis Journal. CRAWFORDSVILLE, Ind., Nov. 3.-Two United States postoffice Inspectors arrested Letter Carrier Guy R. Steele'and Distributing Clerk William Sidener this morning for robbing the mails. A number of letters containing money have been abstracted from the mails and the robbery was finally traced to the right men. A decoy letter, addressed to F. L. Snydey, of the Order of Ben-Hur, and containing marked money. Was mailed to this city, but it never reached its destination. Sidener was arrested and the money was found on him. When arrested he confessed and implicated Carrier Steele, who also confessed. They have been carrying on a system of robbery for some time, but it is not known how much money has been taken. Both were taken to Lafayette at noon to-day. The guilty employes are both sons of respectable parents here. Bloodhounds After Burglars. Special to the Indianapolis Journal. MUNCIE, Ind., Nov. 3.—At midnight tonight the town marshal of Albany arrived here with a pack of bloodhounds to track the Albany burglars. Last night the dry goods store of J. M. Nelson, of Albany, was burglarized of S2OO worth of goods. The dogs were secured frpm Anderson and tonight tracked the thieves a distance of two miles this side of Albany, where the robbers were supposed to have taken a wagon for Muncie. This morning the police found several bales of fine dress goods in an alley and the stuff was identified as coming from Albany. The dogs will be given the scent where the goods were found with hopes of turning up the gang that has been doing a wholesale business in small towns.

ANDERSON, Ind., N6v. 3—Victor Nulle, of this city, employed counsel to-day and began investigating the patents of the Pope Manufacturing Company, covering the Columbia’s new chainless wheel. Three years ago Nulle patented the same gearing and he not only has the letters of patent in his possession, but has been riding his own wheel, which, it is claimed, is geared up exactly like the Columbia's new pattern. Ev detail is covered by his patents. When he had made his application he displayed his wheel to many manufacturers, but the time was not then riptj for the chainless wheel. A Negro Under Her Bed. DANVILLE, Ind., Nov. 3.—The daughter of Aziel Carter, while the family was at supper last night, went to an upp* r room to close a window, and as she started to return she discovered the knees of a man protruding from under the bed. The man proved to be a negro armed with a big knife and carrying eight or ten feet of rope. He claimed that he had been working for someone in that vicinity, with whom he had trouble, and, fearing arrest, he had secreted himself in Mr. Carter’s home. Mr. Carter sent him away in a hurry. The general impression prevails that had the intruder not been discovered there would have been a tragedy in the Carter home. Afraid of n Colfax Mol*. FRANKFORT, Ind., Nov. 3.—The death of Thomas Good at the hands of Robert Lane, in Jackson township, has caused much feeling in that part of the county, and yesterday the sheriff received an intimation that Good’s friends were organizing at Colfax for the purpose of executing vengeance on Lane, who has surrendered and was in jail here. The sheriff concluded to remove the prisoner for safe keeping, and he was taken to Lafayette. Few' knew of the removal and there was no demonstration. The murdered man was a brother of the present county recorder. He leaves a wife and four children. The burial took place this afternoon at Whitestown. Ginas Mm May Compromise. Special to the Indianapolis Journal. HARTFORD CITY, Ind., Nov. 3.—A1l four trades of the local glass workers’ union held a meeting in this city yesterday. This is the first meeting where all the trades have met together in several months. The object of the meeting was to see if some plan could not be suggested whereby the tw'o factions might adjust their grievances, but as neither side was disposed to make concessions the meeting was fruitless. It is said like meetings are being held throughout the gas belt, and it is predicted that a compromise may be patched up between the factions this week. Hnril Time Getting Married.

ried. They returned to Muncie this morning and will make that city their home. Gas Company Knjoined. Special to the Indianapolis Journal. RICHMOND. Ind.. Nov. 3.—On Oct. 1 the Richmond Natural Gas Company put into effect anew rule, forcing all consumers to pay 20 cents a thousand feet for light and 1 2*6 cents for fuel. This was done, the company stated, for the reason that it does not desire to furnish gas for lighting and was under no obligation to do so, and took this method of discouraging its use. To-day suit was filed for the city against the company. and a temporary injunction was granted, preventing the company from turning off the gas where the payment of 20 cents a thousand is refused.

Secretary Lyman J. Gage told the papers that he was going out to Denver, incidentally to get a rest. It is the first part of the proposition that keeps running through my mind and will not down. It calls up a little romance w T hich was executed with business precision and promptness—the invariable turn which romances with business men take. Mr. Gage’s time is worth a lot of money, and without knowing the yarn the average man who knows Mr. Gage would expect that he would carry on his correspondence de coeur with the same dispatch and speed that he would use in closing a deal for bonds or stocks. It is not generally known, but the secretary of the treasury proposed to Mrs. Gage by wire. It happened this way: Mrs. Gage was one of the charming widows of Denver, and her name at that time was Mrs. Gage. She was admired par excellence. The black addcsl to the attractiveness. She was a reigning favorite, and many a man with a large bank account entered the contest for her best favor. A word of this came to Mr. Gage, and he was nervous. He found that his chances of winning his modest suit seemed fading by reason of distance. It was a far cry from Chicago to Denver, and the rivals on the spot had all the advantages. Mr. Gage was too much engaged with a big bank to make more than occasional visits. He had known Mrs. Gage for many years, but it did not occur to him that he wanted her for a wife until news came from the West that she was hesitating on the promise to give another man a final answer. This brought the secretary to a crisis. He put on his hat and slipped around to the telegraph office. Mr. Gage took his pencil in hand and dashed off about the briefest and most businesslike proposal of marriage that I have been able to make record of in my scrapbook of odd Incidents. It reads thus: “Mrs. Gage, Denver, Col.: Don’t do anything until you see me. By first train. "GAGE.” Ho counted the words—exactly ten—and paid the toll.' The bank gave him leave, and he tore across the continent "by first train.” Tills is where the details of the story stop. The denouement is apparent. There was a very quiet wedding, a flash of the wire that Mr. Gage had been married, and he and his bride came back in due time to receive the congratulations of everybody. The Denver man who was waiting is still waiting, also wondering how the man so far away beat him in the race just as he supposed it was over the line. But. like the teles in books, the romance ended beautifully, and they have lived happily ever afterward. Asphyxiated ly Gun. NEWBURG, N. Y., Nov. 3.—A man registering as O. P. Johnson, of Minnesota, was asphyxiated by gas in the United States Hotel here last night. This morning he was found dead in bed. the room full of gas. the, stopcock not having been closed. He had S2OO in his pocket, and from cards found it is thought he has relatives in Little Falls, Minn. The coroner is investigating.

ON THE ALASKAN TRAILS GOLD SEEKERS ATTEMPTING TO CROSS SNOW-COVERED PASSES. ♦— Many Narrow Escapes from Freezing to Death on the Chilkoot Summit Lana for Miners. eSEATTLE. Wash., Nov. 3.—The special correspondent of the Associated Press at Skaguay, Alaska, under date of Oct. 27, says: “The weather at Lakes Bennett and Lindermann lately has been exceptionally fine. Following the cold snap at the beginning of this month, when the mercury fell below the freezing point, came a milder term, and the coldest weather recorded since was eight degrees above zero. The lakes were still open on Saturday last and a few people were still leaving for Dawson City, although it is probable that those leaving Lake Bennett after this date will not get further down than Lake Tagish. The Skaguay trail is completely clear, although considerable packing is still being done between Skaguay and Summitt. A good many of the argonauts are still making their way over the Chilkoot pass, packing their own outfits, as the Indians have practically retired from the business for this season. An Indian will not venture over the pass until winter has thoroughly set in and the snow has become packed. Reports of narrow escapes from being frozen to death on Chilkoot summit come in from time to time, but as yet no fatality has been recorded. A physician from Kansas City had a close call last Friday. Benumbed with cold he crawled into a cache, where he was accidentally discovered by some white packers. He was in a state of semi-consciousness when found and it was only by the greatest exertion that his life was saved. Herman Waechter, a Spokane cattle dealer, is here with 134 head of cattle and one hundred head of live turkeys which he proposes to drive over the Skaguay trail to Lake Bennett. On arrival there the cattle and fowls will be slaughtered and frozen and taken down on the ice to Dawson City. On Sept. 12 the cattle were started into the interior over the Dalton trail. After making ninety or one hundred miles the snow became deeper and neither horses nor cattle could secure forage and it was necessary to turn back. Two other parties overtaken on the trail were also obliged to return. Hetnrn of Gold Seekers. PORT TOWNSEND, Wash., Nov. 3.—The steamer Al-Ki arrived at midnight from Alajgkan points with ninety passengers, three-fourths of whom were from Skaguay. Among the passengers were two surveying parties, which have been operating along the Stlckeen river for the past ten weeks—one party in the interest of the Canadian Pacific Railroad Company and the other In the interests of the Dominion government. The Al-Ki brought but one passenger, Fred Compton, of Seattle, from Dawson City. Sheriff Dyke, of Clallam county. Washington, was also on board. He had in custody John W. Troy, ex-auditor of Clallam county, who, it is alleged, embezzled over $5,000 during his two terms of office. The sheriff found Troy at Skaguay. Troy willingly accompanied the sheriff, but says he will have no trouble in clearing himself. Canadian Regulations. VICTORIA, B. C., Nov. 3.—At the meeting of the Board of Trade, Hon. Clifford Sifton, minister of the interior, intimated that the government would open all Canadian routes to the Yukon and that everything possible would be done to turn trade into Canadian channels, but he declined entirely to advocate a law to prevent aliens from holding claims. After Jan. 1 miners will not be allowed exemption from duty on 100 pounds of their baggage. Customs officers are to be estab.ished on all routes. Arrangements for mail service and the establishment of banks and the transportation of gold are being made. Regulations reserving alternate claims are to be abrogated, and claims are to be reserved en bloc, but it is said that it is not the policy of the government to collect a royalty on the output.

To Alaska. In a Pilot Boat. NEW HAVEN, Conn., Nov. 3.—The pilot boat Thomas S. Negus, having on board Capt. Joseph McClure and his company of eight men, bound for the Klondike to prospect for gold, sailed from Belle dock today on her long voyage to the other side of the continent. The departure of the Klondike boat was witnessed by hundreds of persons, among whom were the wives, sons and daughters of tnose who went with the vessel, hopeful of returning with wealth from the gold fields. The crowd on the dock did not disperse until the vessel had passed around the old lighthouse and was lost to view. There were three desertions before the boat sailed. Bound for the Klondike Awheel. CHICAGO, Nov. 3.—Bicyclist J A. Briegel left the corner of Washington and Lasalle streets at 9 a. m., bound for Klondike via El Paso, Los Angeles, Frisco and Seattle. A large crowd congregated to watch the man on his long journey. His wheel, with outfit, weighs sixty pounds. Briegel is an honorably discharged United States soldier and is well acquainted with the country through which he will have to pedal after leaving St. Louts. The traveler expects to reach Seattle about the middle of February. SEW ROTES IX COLORS. Variegated Bills Will Soon Be In Circulation—Will Save Confusion. Washington Post. Tho new' paper money, printed in different colors, will soon be in circulation. Some of the designs have already been prepared, and others are being executed at the Bureau of Printing and Engraving. All of them will undergo criticism, and more or less alteration before final acceptance. President McKinley has expressed his approval of the idea in a general way, and Secretary Gage Is anxious to issue the notes and certificates as quickly as possible. Being a banker himself, he fully appreciates the defects of the currency now in the hands of the people. It may be artistic, but the various denominations are not easily distinguished from each other, and even the numerals on them are obscure and hard to make out. This makes counting troublesome, and a person has to look sharp if he would avoid giving a five-dollar note for a one-dollar. Secretary Gage is of the opinion that every-day usefulness is of more importance in the currency of the Nation than high art. Pretty pictures of recumbent ladies and naked boys are well enough in their way, but they cut no particular ice, so to speak, in connection with hard and vulgar cash. The most important point in a piece of paper money is that it shall be easily recognizable. Its denomination must be apparent at a glance, and its kind also, whether treasury note, bank note or certificate. Os course, safety against counterfeiting is not to be lost sight of. It is believed that all of these requirements are met by the new designs. Anybody who has a handful of these bills will be able to separate them in an instant into their different classes, so as to count them off-hand and without scrutiny. At the same time, the freater simplicity of their patterns will rener them actually more difficult to imitate successfully. The very elaborateness of the notes now in circulation confuses the eye. For illustration, take the one-dollar bill. The designs for this denomination are already finished and are very handsome. There are only two, one for the face and one for the back, because all one-dollar bills will have the same patterns, whether certificates, banknotes or treasury notes. When you see a bill with a big spread eagle In the middle of the face, you will recognize it as a dollar, without even looking at the large numeral beneath. How, then, are you to understand what kind of a onedollar bill it is? The answer is, simply by the color in which the big numeral of denomination, the treasury seal and the number of the bill are printed. If it is a treasury note, these will be in red; if a silver certificate, they will be in green; if a banknote, they will be in blue. There will be no other differences, except that each kind of bill will have its own legend. But people do not want to stop and read the legend in order to find out whether a bill is a banknote or a certificate. They do not have to do so, inasmuch as the color shows that. At present there are three different designs for one-dollar bills. Under the new arrangement there will be only one design, the sole variation being in the colors as described. It will be the same way with the two-dollar bill; Instead of three patterns there will be one. This scheme will be carried out through all of the denominations of paper money. There are nine denominations ir. all, running from $1 to SI,OOO. Under the present system there are twentyseven patterns. Just think of It—twenty.-

the long run dependent upon if sound mind in a sound body. The man who is too busy with his business to spare a moment to look after his health, will eventually lose both health and business. A man may be in too big a hurry. The man who would be permanently successful should take time to eat, time to digest his food, time to sleep, and time to look after the most precious endowment—his health.

seven sorts of paper currency! It is enough to confuse the people, especially when it is considered that during the last few years the designs have been undergoing radical changes with every new administration. Obviously, counterfeits are much more likely to be detected if the users of the currency are thoroughly familiar with its appearance. so as to be struck by anything that is not exactly as it should be. For the new two-dollar bill a head of Washington has been chosen provisionally. On either side of it two classical figures of the allegorical sort will recline. Thus something will be done for art incidentally. It would be a mistake to suppose that the new money is to be executed in a spirit of commercial philistinism. On the contrary, it will be very handsome indeed. One thing very notioeable about it is the broad blank spaces which are left on both face and back of each bill. Something like one-third of the entire area of the note in each case is blank. The back has not so much as one-half of the usual amount of lathe-work engraving. The purpose of this modification is twofold. It will show the distinctive fiber in the paper much more plainly, and the eye in examining a bill will be less confused. Secretary Gage has been evolving this scheme ever since he first took charge of the treasury. It is safe to say that the present alleged “artistic” patterns of currency would never have been adopted under the authority of an official graduated from commercial life. Mr. Carlisle, who is responsible for the patterns of the notes and certificates now in use. is better acquainted with politics than with business, liver since the “art money” came into circulation bankers and merchants all over the country have been complaining of it. Bank cashiers especially have obscurity a very serious inconvenience. One notable advantage of the new plan is that it will do away entirely with the industry of raising bills from smell to large denominations. This kind of fraud has grown of late to an extent that proves its profitableness. Only the other day a prisoner in the Tombs jail, in New York city, actually passed on the prison caterer a twenty-dollar note which he had raised from a one-dollar during hla leisure hours. Rubber Tires. The Criterion. The nerve-irritating noises which make this town a purgatory to sensitive people might be greatly diminished if oar policemen would give some of the attention they devote to the ordinances concerning women In the street to those concerning vehicles and. peddlers in the street. One self-sacri-ficing citizen a week or two since secured tha conviction of a truckman who was driving with a load of iron beams without the required sound deadeners. The policeman should have done this without the citizen's intervention. An ordinance requiring the use of rubber tires, on vehicles of all kinds would make life in New York more endurable. This would not be the hardship it appears at first glance, as a leading manufacturer of carriages is responsible for the statement, and proves it by his books, that rubber tires not only prolong the fife of the vehicle, but also reduce the annual expenditure for repairs more than 50 per cent. He says that, so far as his business goes, the use of the rubber tire is a most undesirable innovation. Owners of express and delivery wagons should take this statement into consideration on their own account if not through altruistic moUyes. Western Stories. Chicago Post. New Yorkers are still chuckling over the "new story” told by Mr. Depew at the Lotos Club dinner to Anthony Hope concerning Governor Brough, of Ohio—a story that has been barred in the West by the statute of limitations. At a recent dinner in New York, when one of the New York gentlemen present told a capital story, a Western man ventured to remark that all good stories came from the West. To this the Easterners took Immediate and violent exception, and, by way of rebuke, one of them told the Westerner that he had just laughed as heartily as they at a New York story. The Western man admitted the excellence of the anecdote, but stuck to his point. While the dispute was waxing warm he turned to the story-teller and suddenly asked: "Who told you that story?" The answer came, rather feebly, "Tom Lowry, of Minneapolis,” HulKurln Threaten*! Turkey. BERLIN, Nov. 3.—The Frankfort Zeitung publishes the following sensational dispatch from Constantinople: “The Bulgarian government recently delivered an ultimatum to Turkev threatening to declare the independence of Bulgaria unless the berats, the Bulgarian bishops in Macedonia, were granted by 10 o’clock on the morning of Nov. 3.” ______ Harlem Race Truck Sold.
