"It has gone out over the civilised world," said he. "that President McKinley s close friends and advisers were members of the United States Snate. and that cne of them was Charles W. Fairbanks".

The Republicans of the county have held few political meetings this campaign, but the general opinion tonight is that Senator Fairbanks' soeeeh is Just what wan needed. The Senator said some nice things about Joshua M. Spencer, Marcu R. Sulxer and W. A. Guthrie. The audience received these complimentary remarks with enthusiasm. Patriotic colors covered the wall back of 'where the Senator stood and on the stand before him were two large vases filled with ! flowers.

BROKE AND LOST BY THREE LENGTHS. Gold Cap Worth 5,000 Won tor Lord Derby Free-for-All Paee Captured by Fannie Dlllard. MEMPHIS, Tenn., Oct. 27. The special match race for $12,000 a side between the pacers Prince Alert and Sir Albert S., one heat, at half a mile, resulted in an easy victory for the former at the Memphis Driving Park this afternoon, in the remarkable time of 57 seconds. This establishes a new world's record for this distance in a race, beating the former time by 24 seconds. The contest was not satisfactory in all of Its details. After scoring several times the horses got away from the half pole in perfect alignment. Sanders immediately sent Sir Albert S. forward and the the son of Diablo led Prince Alert by two lengths. At the quarter pole Sanders Increased his lead by three lengths and the timers hung out 286 for the quarter. Turning for home Sir Albert S., still In a commanding lead, broke badly, and Prince Alert, coming along like a piece of machinery, forged to the front and won by three lengths. Many horsemen expressed the opinion that had the California horse kept his feet the result would have been different and the time reduced at least a quarter of a second. The former record for half a mile was 1:001. held by Audubon Boy. Fast time was the order in the Mazun a stake, Maxine, the winner, trotting the second heat in 2:08. The free-for-all pace for mares was won easily by Fanny Dlllard. Fereno annexed the 2:09 trot in straight heats, while Lord Derby, after two game finishes, won the Memphis gold cup from The Monk.

KID CARTER BESTED. Jack Root Gives the Decisloi of Sixth Hound. it End CHICAGO, Oct. 27. Jack Root, of Chicago, was given the decision over "Kid" Carter, of Brooklyn, at the end of six rounds to-night. The fight was one of the fastest between big men that has taken place in this city in several years. In the first and second rounds Root kept up a succession of left jabs, now and then sending in a short right hook which invariably landed on Carter's Jaw. Carter was unable to hit Root with any effect, and at the end of the second round, when Carter went to his corner in a groggy condition, it looked as though the fight would not last the limit of six rounds. In the third and fourth rounds, however. Carter came back strongly and had the better of It, particularly in the third round, when he sent In a number of right swings that caught Root on the jaw and neck. In the fifth round Root resumed the lead he had won in the earlier part of the fight and hammered Carter all over the ring. The sixth round was even more in favor of Root, and Carter was in a bad way when the round ended. He was bleeding from the nose and from a bad cut over the left eye and was weakening rapidly. He could hardly have lasted through one more round. Three Planta for This Week. Special to the Indianapolis Journal. TERRE HAUTE, Ind.. Oct. 27. The announcement that fight promoters were abroad getting talent for exhibitions In Terre Haute has started the fighters of good and bad repute toward Terre Haute. A dosen are now here waiting for an opening to get In the game. There are three exhibitions this week, the first to-morrow at the Casino with Harry Covert and "Shine" Russell, the latter colored, as the leading attraction.

Saturdav night at the Casino Harry Forbes, bantam champion from Chicago, and Willie McNamara. from Philadelphia, will go on for ten rounds. Maiacby Hogan will referee this match. "Vounn" Erne Outclassed. PHILADELPHIA. Oct. 27.-"Young" Erne, of this city, managed to stay six rounds with "Young" Corbett. the featherweight champion, to-night at the Washington Sporting Club. During the six rounds Erne was down twenty-four times, but only one of these falls was the result of a fair blow. Corbett rushed the fighting from the start, and almost every time he crowded Erne the latter would go down on his knees, either to rest or to avoid punishment. At the close of the fourth round Corbett caught Erne with a swinging blow squarely on the mouth, sending him in a 1 heap to the floor. He probably would have I been counted out had not the bell saved him. Erne showed considerable cleverness, but he was no match for his adversary. Will Kot Revoke License. WATERBCRY, Conn., Oct 27.-The Board of Public Safety, at a meeting tonight, declined to consider a protest calling the approaching "Young C.."bett"-Rlce

fistic contest a "prize fight." The board will not revoke the license, and the exhibition will take place Nov. 6. in spite of local remonstrance, unless the State's attorney Interferes. The citizens' committee met at the Y. M. C. A. Hall and continued plans for legal steps if necessary to prevent the tight. THE "PARAMOUNT ISSUE."

Former President Cleveland Says It Is Tariff Revision. NEW YORK. Oct. 27.-The Herald tomorrow will print a dispatch from Trenton, N. J., in which former President Cleveland is quoted as saying: "I feel very much interested in my party this year, but do not want to take an active and prominent part in the struggle. I consented with reluctance to make a short speech at Morristown on next Thursday, because the circumstances were represented to me as being exceptional and it was thought that I could do some good. But the fact that I consented has gone out and has brought down on me an avalanche of applications for me to make speeches or write letters or otherwise get into the fight. This I cannot do. There are other Democrats who are coming forward, and I am quite content to stay In retirement and enjoy the repose of home life. "It is generally felt." Mr. Cleveland added, "that the Democratic party stands on solid ground this year in unequivocally declaring for a revision of the tariff. But then everybody knows where I stand on that question. It is now, and will be until equitably settled, the paramount issue in American politics." MRS. ROGERS TESTIFIED DAUGHTER. OF THE WOMAN MOLIXEIX IS ACCUSED OF POISOXING.

SIGNED WITH NEW YORK

LIST OF BASEBALL PLAYERS SECIRED BY MANAGER M'GRAW. Ban Johnson Alleared to Have Padded His List Mr. Watklas Still gotiatina; for Peace. NEW YORK, Oct. 27 -Manager McGraw. of the New York Baseball Club, has announced the names of the players which he has signed for next season, as follows: Pitchers, Matthewson, McGinnity, L. Taylor, Miller and Cronin; catchers. Bowerman, Bresnahan, Warner (Boston American) and Robinson; inflelders, McGraw, McGann, Smith, G. Davis (Chicago) and Elberfeld (Detroit); outfielders, Van Haltren. Brown, Dunn, Lauder and Mertes (Chicago.) Dave Fultz (Philadelphia American) and Jesse Burkett (St. Louis American) have accepted the New York club s terms, and McGraw says they will undoubtedly sign with him. Burkett has received a check for a good amount in advance from the New York club. McGraw says that the list of players issued by President Ban Johnson at Chicago on Saturday is misleading, as it contains the names of several players who have signed with the New York and other National League clubs. President Ebbetts, of the Brooklyn club, declares that Captain Keeler has not signed with the rival organization, and Barney Dreyfus and Harry Pulliam, of the Pittsburg club, who are In this city at present, declared to-night that Leach, Conroy and Smith will remain with the Pittsburg team, although they are mentioned in the American League list as having signed to play on the team which Ban Johnson proposes to place In this city next year. Peace Negotiations. NEW YORK, Oct. 27. President Powers, of the National League of Professional Baseball Clubs, announced to-night that all the members of the board would have Mr. Van Brunt and Presidents Brice, of Columbus, and Watklns, of Indianapolis, before them to-morrow. "The whole matter will then be thrashed over," said Mr. Powers, "and efforts will be made to straighten out the difficulty. " Mr. Powers said the members of the American Association would be treated with the greatest fairness In tha negotiations in the hope that the trouble would be settled. When Mr. Powers was asked what, in case of a settlement, would become of Hickey and Tebeau, who were expelled by the National Association, he said: "The National Association is big and strong enough Just now," replied Mr. Powers, "so that it can afford to be magnanimous. It would not be proper to let two men stand in the way of a settlement of this trouble and they won't." Baltimore to Be Dropped. NEW YORK, Oct. 27. Ban B. Johnson, president of the American Baseball League, who is in this city, said regarding the announcement just made of the list of players for the proposed new team here: "Every man on the list has been signed by the American League clubs and moreover, I know the contracts will be lived up to. Baltimore Is to be dropped from our circuit to make way for New York and in this city, right in Manhattan island, we have leased grounds not only convenient, but accessible. We have made known the names of the players who will compose the New York team and our next step will be to inform the public of the location of our park. The time is not yet ripe for us to divulge the locality, but I will dq, so shortly. I have been balked once or twjfe in my plans, but this time everything is all right and there ia nothing ahead but plain sailing." Peculiar Accident. BELLEFONTAINE. O., Oct 27.-A peculiar accident occurred at a ball game here to-day. Thomas Walker was passing an open knife to a companion, when a foul ball struck his hand and drove the blade into his side, severing an artery. Walker died almost instantly. Good Sunday Football Game. Special to the Indianapolis Journal. ELWOOD. Ind.. Oct 27. The Lightweight football team and the Columbia club, both of this city, played one of the most Interesting games of the season at the fair grounds Sunday before a large crowd. Although greatly outweighed, the Lightweights held the Columbias for downs several times and prevented a score In the first half. Tackle back plays and an eighty-yard run by Phillips gave the Columbias two touchdowns in the second half. Score, 12 to 0. Will Send a Crew to Henley. ITHACA, N. Y., Oct 27. At a meeting of the athletic council of Cornell University held to-day a vote was taken on the proposition of sending a crew to Henley next year and the majority was largely in favor of the Idea, Ever since Cornell's victory on the Hudson river last June, when all three races were won by Cornell, the feeling that a Cornell crew should go across the water this year has been growing stronger. PLANS OF ARBITERS. (CONCLUDED FROM FIRST PAGE.) accord with the wishes of the miners, who are anxious to avoid all controversy as to the interpretation of figures. President Gray then announced that the commission for the present would proceed without appointing an expert, but that it would require that statements should be prepared for them. He added an accountant could be secured in case it was found his services were needed. The question of the examination by the commission Into the conditions under which the mining of anthracite coal is conducted was then entered on, and Mr. Watklns, of the commission, suggested that a week or ten days' time would be necessary in order to make an adequate examination of the physical conditions of the mines. He appealed to Mr. Thomas for his opinion as to the time necessary, and that gentleman replied: "You will certainly need that much time; 1 should think that thirty days would be none too little. We've grown gray in our study of that question." Mr. Baer also fell In with the suggestion, saying that it would be impossible to do Justice to the investigation without a complete physical inspection of the mines and the methods of operating them. Mr. Mitchell thought that not only should there be an inspection of the mines but also the homes of the miners. He considered this investigation necessary to a complete understanding of the subject. DISTRICT NO. L FIRST. After consulting the members of the commission President Gray announced that it would begin its inspection next Thursday, commencing its work in district No. 1, in which the city of Scranton Is located. While no conclusion was reached on the subject, the conversation among the members of the commission indicated that it is their purpose to investigate the mining operations In a number of the mines. While the subject was up Mr. Baer said that the mine operators would furnish all facilities at their command to enable the commission to make its investigation thorough, adding that they would place a special train at the disposal of the commission, i rovidlng also for the accommodation of a representative of the miners. Ths public meeting of the commission then cams to a close snd the commissioners retired for the purpose of private consultation. They first took up the question which had been raised by the proffer of a special train by Mr. Baer and unanimously decided not to accept the train. The exchange of views which followed brought out the fact that the commissioners expect personally to pay all their expenses, accepting no favors and relying on the government to reimburse them if so disposed. Official stenographers to report the proceedings of the commission and also secretaries for the members of the commission were appointed. An agrssment was reached to leave the Hotel Jermyn In Scranton at 9 o'clock next Thursday morning for the first tour of inspection. There was. how-

ever, no agreement as to what mines should be visited first, that point being left for future determination.

Coal for Xew Yorkers. NEW YORK. Oct. 27 With tracks comparatively free from passenger traffic, all the anthracite roads rushed trains eastward on 8unday to fill the gap in the coal marts caused by the great strike. More than 10,000 tons reached the receiving yards and piers in Jersey City and its neighborhood. The coal was divided Into small lots and put on the retail market to-day with the understanding that consumers should not be required to pay more than $6.50 for it in any instance. Some dealers even went so far as to promise they would sell it to the poor at the rate of 10 cents a bucket, which really would be $6.60 a ton. Many dealers who still have coal bought at high prices during the strike still charge $2.50 a ton more than the dealers who are handling the new supply. Only Thirteen Collieries Idle. SCRANTON, Pa., Oct. 27. Of the 108 collieries operated by the five big companies having headquarters here only thirteen are still idle. The Erie has thirty-three places working and one idle: the Delaware & Hudson, twenty-five working and five idle; Delaware, Lackawanna & Western, nineteen working and three idle; Ontario & Western, eleven working and three idle; Temple, seven working and one idle. Even the Butler colliery of the Erie Company, which was allowed to flood, is being worked in the levels not reached by the water. The individual operators are rapidly getting into line, and before many more days all of them except a very few will be in operation. About 80 per cent of the old employes of the collieries in the Lackawanna region are back at work. By Wednesday the companies expect to be getting out 70 per cent Price of Connellsvllle Coke. PITTSBURG, Oct. 27. A decision has been reached by the United States Steel Corporation so far as Its Interests are concerned to fix the price for furnace coke, dating January next, at 13 per ton. Although coke in the open market has been selling at $4, $5 and $6 per ton, the large interests prefer mostly a regular market at the above named price. It is supposed that all the coke producers will now settle on the 13 rate to be charged their furnace consumers for coke. This important settlement of prices puts to rest the reports for some time past current that on account of the great demand caused by the anthracite strike the Connellsvllle coke producers would exact exorbitant and uncalled-for prices for coke from their consumers. G.F. HOAR TO REPUBLICANS MASSACHUSETTS SENATOR URGES SUPPORT OF THE PRESIDENT. Says the Democratic Party Is a Creator of Grievances, Never the Redresser of Them. BOSTON, Oct. 27. The Chicktawbut Club, a Republican dining organization of Dorchester ratified the state ticket to-night by listening to an address by Senator George F. Hoar. Senator Hoar in opening spoke words of praise for President Roosevelt and Governor W. Murray Crane, saying that in the national election we are to send men to uphold the President's hands, or men whose sole object in the next two years will be to hunt him from power. He said the Democratic party during all its history has been a creator of grievances, never the redresser of them. Speaking of trusts, Senator Hoar said: "The evils of trusts are: First, destruction of competition; second, the management of industries by absent capital; third, destruction of local public spirit; fourth, fraudulent capitalization; fifth, secrecy; sixth, management for the private benefit of the officers; seventh, the power to corrupt elections and In some cases to corrupt the courts; eighth, indifference to public sentiment. If the first, fourth and fifth can be cured, the cure of the others, in my opinion, will follow. Now, is it not the duty of wise statesmanship to go slowly and carefully in this matter, so we can cure or prevent the evil without sacrificing or destroying what is good?" Senator Hoar then reviewed the Sherman anti-trust law, and claimed that he himself had inserted in the bill the section which declares -any combination, or "trust," which restricts trade to be illegal and which also provides for its punishment. "Every suit that has been brought," he continued, "which has been successful has been under this section." He said he would curb trusts, not destroy them. Senator Hoar next discussed the tariff, saying in regard to the tariff revision that it should be made on the principles of the protective system. He favors reciprocity, believing it best can be secured by concurrent legislation rather than by treaties. The tariff will have to be revised, he said, again and again, and again, hereafter. In conclusion. Senator Hoar discussed strikes, saying that, to him, if capital combined he could not see why labor may not also combine. "A republic," he said, "cannot live if any body of men undertakes to Impose their own will upon the lawful freedom of others. I believe the sympathy of all true Americans is on the side of labor and its attempt to better its condition. Capital and wealth will in the end take care of themselves." Secretary Shaw at Omaha. OMAHA, Neb., Oct. 27. Secretary of the Treasury Leslie M. Shaw to-night spoke to an enthusiastic audience in this city. The secretary's address touched the several issues of the campaign. He took up flst the tariff question in a general way, defending the present schedule and refraining from an opinion as to the necessity of modification. During his address he said: "The Sherman anti-trust law was the first, last and only law ever passed to control the trusts. It was written by Sherman, signed by Harrison and is being enforced by ; Roosevelt. What has the Democratic I party ever done? The author of the Wil- ' son tariff law spoke and voted against the i Sherman act and then incorporated into his tariff law a facsimile of it. Mr. Moody Appeals to Voters. WATERBURT, Conn.. Oct. 27. Secretary of the Navy Moody in a brilliant speech here to-day brought the personal greetings of President Roosevelt to the citizens of Waterbury, and Mr. Moody entreated the people to make a mighty response to that greeting by sending to Washington representatives and senators known to be in hearty accord with the President's policy. Referring to the attitude which Mr. Roosevelt took on the coal strike the speaker declared that he took his political life in his hands, but that he met the issue with all that courage, fortitude and will power characteristic of him.

LITTLE JUBILATION FELT

PURDUE NOT INCLINED TO CROW OVER THE GAME WITH CASE. Hopefulness for the Fatnre Close of the College Y. W. C. A. Convention Other News of the Schools. Special to the .n.llanapolls Journal. LAFAYETTE. Ind.. Oct. 27. There was little Jubilation at Purdue over the eleven s narrow escape from defeat by the Case team on Saturday, and as a consequence of the poor shywing Coach Best to-day put the men through hard, fast practice and tried several of the squad in the regulars' positions. Tiere is no probability, however, that any ch nges will be made in the line this week. Next Friday the annual game with Northwestern will be played at Evanston, nd although the latter team was defeatel by Knox College on Saturday. Coach Best looks for a speedy rehabilitation of Coach Hollisters men and expects a hsird game. The contest was arranged for Friday on account of the Michigan-Wiscons'n game in Chicago the following day. It is probable that Captain Leslie will be In t&e game, but John Miller will not be able to play before the game with L U. on No. 15. Purdue's I race in the last half of the Case game "vas considered remarkable, as the playing was in strong contrast to the work early in the game. New life seemed to have been injected into the men, and the touchdown resulted. Had the half been a minute long r the score would have been larger. Coa h Best considers that he has at last fourd the proper position for Osborne, who played quarter back In the Case game. 'Ossy" played a brilliant game In this position and made but one fumble. His passing Was quick and sure, and he got in the Interf -rence at each play. Allen and Knapp shoved up particularly strong on Saturday, aUd Coach Best regards the former as one pf the most promising men on the team. Davidson at center is a stone wall, but he: is missed at tackle, for. being a sure grouhd gainer, he was always expected to ca ry the ball In tight places. During the latter part of the week practice will be secret and the men will be drilled in spvedier offensive work. Less individual placing and a more combined effort is what Coach Best is now striving for. Indiana's lose game with Notre Dame has caused !he stock of Purdue's old rival to boom among the students here. The poor work o the Bloomington team against De Pauw i nd the big score rolled up against the Oreencastle team by the local eleven caused a feeling that Indiana would be easy picMng this year. Now. however, there will b ? a big effort to win back the laurels lost it Bloomington last fall. COLLEGE Y. W. C. A. Close of Very Saccessfal Annual Meeting at Greeacastle.
