On this point Dr. Moore said: "The importance of this committee's action cannot be overestimated. Its proceedings will be commented upon all over the uuiverse. If we make public each day's proceedings the public may become confused. One day we may adopt a resolution and the next day it may be rescinded. Therefore nothing will be told of the proceedings "until we tinally adjourn. Then we will be most happy to make public our report." Dr. Mooro said there would be no set speeches, the proceedings would be carried on in a conversational way. He thinks a week or ten days will be consumed by the committee. ' YEARLY MEETING CLOSED.

Six Months of Starvation Without a Single Murmur Conscious at Intervals. White Hall, Pa., Oct. .7. Mrs. Ellen Wuchter's case of slow starvation, or enforced fasting, due to illness and partial paralysis, is attracting widespread attention in spite of the recent charge by a Philadelphia medical journal that she is not fasting, but only shamming, and that she has received both food and drink every day during the period of 183 days of her alleged incapacity to receive or retain any nourishment whatever. Dr. Sieger and a correspondent came over to the home of Adam and Ellen Wuchter from Siegfried's Bridge a night or two ago. The former is the physician who has attended Mrs. Wnchter all through her remarkable illness. To the writer he said: "I am as sure as that 1 live that this woman has aot been nourished in any way for nearly two hundred days. I know her husband to be as honest as the day. and I know that food in any form cannot be forced w ithin her lips without producing most violent convulsions. : "When I told her what had been written she said, 'Doctor, long ago I made you promise that there should be no autopsy on my body. I now recall that promise. When 1 am dead if there is anv slur upon my husband I give you fnll permission, with trusted medical friends of yours, to make a thorough examination, 'that is all that 1 can do To this her husband added: Let any man, I care not who, come here and watch beside the bedside. He is welcome.' 1 was satisfied before that the case was one without deception. I was more than satisfied now, and when my night's work was over, at 2 o'clock this morning, I sat down in my cilice and penned a full report and diagnosis of her case, over my own signature not an anonymous, irrenponsi bio attack, like that of the Philadelphia medical journal referred to. As the regular attending physician I do know that she is not able to partake of any nourishment by the mouth. Artificial feeding has not been attempted. This evening I again convinced myself of her inability to take food." The corrospondeut describes as follows what he saw in Mrs. Wuchter's room when he entered with Dr. Sieger: She lay on her right side, this miserable wraith of womanhood, on the side that as paralyzed and stilled forever. Her sightless eyes were bandaged, and another cloth wa3 tied from throat to crown in an attempt to lessen the throbbing of the cancer in the throat. Her slight bodyit could not have weighed much more than sixty pounds was racked bv unintermittent throbs of anguish, her clenched teeth, which she has been unable to separate for months, grated together with a horrible sound, and other sounds of pain escaped from her unconscious lips, while the thin white hand on tho counterpane beat a tattoo as regular as the pulsing of a pendulum. Her face was thin, and the pursed lip looked like those of a new-born and half-nourished baby. You se." said the Doctor, "that the medical papr lied when it said that she perspired. There has been no perspiration for months. Nor has there been any pulse perceptible at tho wrist, though the heart still beats regularly, and with considerable strength. I am often asked to say how soon she will die, but 1 can predict nothing; the case is beyond me. Doctors of high repute said a year ago that she would be dead in a few weeks, yet she still lives, and does not look like dying to-night, nor as if death was imminent. She has just said, In the feeblest possible accents', that she is very hungry.'' The testimony of the physicians is the testimony of all the neighbors, many of whom have been constant visitors at the Wuchter house and have had tho best of opportunities for watching how things go there. They agreo with her husband that in her brief rational intervals she talks most of her children and the Bible, and never expresses impatience because death is so slow in coming, but is willing to wait, she says. All in iood time her summons will corne. She is beyond the help of man. She said that long ago. She can take no medicine no more than food. Dr. Sieger says that he has kept no record of the ease, for the reason that he never expected at the beginning that it would develop into such a celebrated one, and when that fact was evident it was pretty late, and he was too busy to catch up. This is unfortunate, as thecase.if the post mortem shows that the fast has been absolutely unbroken for almost half a year, with life and occasional consciousness still retaiued, is one of exceeding value to the medical profession. Electric Light Infringement Salt. Chicago, Oct. 7. Judges Gresham and Blodgett are listening to tho infringement nit of the Brush Electric Company against the Fort Wayne Electric Company. Henry S. Olds, Perry A. Randall and Ranold T. McDonald, to enjoin improvements in electric arc lamps.

M'KINLEY TO THE FARMERS
America's Great Exponent of Protection Explains the New Tariff Measure, - And Shows the Tiller of the Soil that It Pays Better to Have Consumers than Competi- " tors Two Doctrines Compared. Millersburg. O., Oct. 7. Congressman McKinley opened his campaign in the Six-' teenth district with a speech delivered here this evening. This place is the county-seat of Holmes county, one of tho Democratic strongholds added to the Major's district by the gerrymander passed last winter. This was the first speech he ever delivered ho re, and he was greeted by a fine audience. He had no prepared speech. After a brief reference to the gerrymander of congressional districts and a short discussion of the general subject of taxation, Mr. McKinley said: 'Both parties agree that the revenne must be raised by indirect taxation by duties on imports. They di Her in the way these duties shall be raised. The Democrats insist that the tariff shall be levied for revenue and revenne only. The Republicans urgo that it shall be levied to raise the revenue and at the same time protect and encourage home industries. To follow Democratic principles the tariii' must be levied on products which we cannot produceon non-competing foreign products and it would be di (lieu It to raise enough revenue on these products to run the government." In making a glass tumbler the speaker showed how the Republican tariff of 60 per . cent, had discouraged importation and promoted glass-making, and, added: lf we. have no concern for the employment of our people then we want a revenue tariff. A Republican tariff is not levied for revenuo only, but to give employment to our own workingmen and improve our markets. Would the farmers of Holmes county rather -have a consumer Or a competitor! Every time you drive men out of factories they chango from consumers to competitors. It is said the Republican protective tariif puts burdens upon the people. There is not a man in this audience who knows anything about it: for he docs not feel the weight of federal taxation. This tax is not paid by the consumers. If it is, why is it that England, Belgium and Germany are crying out against this new bill! You do not pay it and the foreigner knows it. There is not an item upon which protective duties have been laid that has not been reduced in price to tho people who buy it. 'The Republican' party fifteen vears ago gave to the country freecolfee and tea, and. it has now given it free sugar, and we now . have as a result a free and untaxed breakfast table, -and duties under this bill which went into operation yesterday are lower than those of any bill since 1801. With half a dozen exceptions there have been reductions all along the line. Wo have reduced the duty whenever it would not interfere with or injure home, industries, and have increased it only where the protection of our own manufacturingmterestsdemanded it. The duties on" wool -have allbeen made protective. If in 1SS3 you farmers of Holmes connty and Ohio defeated tho Republican party for the reduction of tho wool tar ill, as the Democrats then claimed, it is your duty now to voto for the Republican party that has not only restored the tariff of 18i3, but made it stronger by a high tariif on all substitutes for wool. . If it is free wool yoat want, don't vote for me. If you want to'' destroy the flocks of the country vote for that other' man; for I find by the Orrville convention that the platform of 18S8, which put wool and S5 per cent, of the products of farms on the free list, is reaffirmed. "Protection is for all, or for none. As Burke said of liberty, it must apply to all or none. Yon farmers are entitled to just as much protection as manufacturers, and that protection must be the ditlerence in the labor and cost between tho foreign products and our own. This gives to the farmer, for the' first time in tariif history, his proper place hi. the protective scheme. That is where the" principal advances in duty have been. If you want the duty struck down then don't vote for mo. Bnt they say the farmers don't need protection because they mnst find a market abroad. Eight per cent of our farm products' are marketed abroad, 92 per cent, at home, and I am for taking care of the 92 per cent. Tho labor in India is 8 cents a day.' How would you like to compete with that kind of labor in raising wheat! Yet I could quote from high Democratic authority that the time is near when Indian wheat is likelj to find a market in New York. 1 o we have to put up the bars before the horse gets in. This is a bill for tho American people and for no one else. The rank and file of the Democratic party are for protection. It always was until Grover Cleveland sent his free-trade message to Congress. Jackson and Jefferson were protectionists and a long line of Democratic statesmen stood Sot protection, and the first fiscal bill ever passed by Congress was a protective tariff bill. Protection has always been the cardinal principle in our fiscal policy since then, and will be the principle of the future because it is the principle of self-protection, of patriotism, of the Republican party. 'The American market is the best in the world, and it has been made so and can only be so maintained by protection. We havo, advanced the duty on tin-plate at home and kept $20,000,000 a year here, and will give employment to 15.000 people. This duty would amount to onefifth of acenton tho price of tin cups which hell for 5 cents. If you add one-htth cent cost it will not increase the price to the consumer, because the increase will come out of the dealers' profit. But mark my prediction, it will not be two years until wo are making all our tin-plate and at a lower price than is now paid to England for it. They say we have increased the nrice of ever3'thmg. I would like to know what wo have increased dutieson exceptchampagne, brandy and plushes and velvets, and tho luxuries of the wealthy. These and farm products about c mprise the list." The Major was loarse, and only spoke for an hour, closing with a brief and brilliant peroration, in which he eulogized the record of tho Republican party and tho patriotism of the protective-taritF doctrine. McKinley will speak at Wadsworth, 0., tomorrow afternoon. PROTECTING THE SEAL ROOKERIES. Five Russian War Vessels Cruising in the Behring Sea Experience of the Schooner White. San Francisco. Oct. 7. The steamer Alexander, which arrived Sunday night from Siberia, brought further news concerning the tiring upon the crew of the schooner C. G. White, oti Copper island. The officers of the Alexander say that when White appeared otf Copper island she sent six boats toward the beach. They were warned away, but no attention was paid to the warning, and, as the sealer persisted in trying to land, they were fired upon by guards, first with blank aid then ball cartridges. The Alexander brought down 9.700 seal-skins for the Alaska Commercial Company. The company's contract with the Russian government having expired it would be renewed for ten years instead of twenty years. A number of Americans at Yokohama and other Japanese ports are fitting out vessels to go seal-hunting under the British, German and Japanese flags. Next year the Russian government proposes to protect the rookeries. Five Russian war vessels are now cruising in Behring sea with instructructions to peremptorily! seize any vessel found sealing within the frescribed shore limits, which is five miles, t is stated that vessels which recently started on sealing cruises will not cruise in the Behring sea proper. They will "station themselves at a narrow pass called Uuimak. through which seals pass on tho way to the rookeries, and thero slaughter them by the wholesale. Tho knowledge of this fact inlluenccd the Alaska company in' making a contract for ten years instead of twenty as heretofore, as the Siberian rookeries will sutler severely. A Convict's Suicide. John Welch, a convict sent to the'northern prison from this city for four years for burglary and grand larceny, hanged himself in the dungeon in 4 he prison by his
suspenders sometime during Monday night. He broke a plate-glass window in the Bates House jewelry storu on July 8, lbWJ, and stole several necklaces and rings, for which he was sentenced. ' An assault upon a fellow-convict caused his incarceration in the dungeon. ' ENTERPRISES OF BUSINESS MEN. The Commercial Club Directory Consider the Gun-Factory Troject. The most important business done at the meeting of the Commercial Club directors, yesterday afternoon, was the appointment of a committee to meet tho board of army officers having in charge the location of the gun-foundry and steel-works to be erected by the government. The committee consists of H. II. Hanna, J. X. Hurty, E. L. Whittemore, F. G. Darlington, President Lilly and Secretary Fortune, and it is safe to say these gentlemen will lose no point setting forth tho advantages of Indianapolis. The board will visit the city next Wednesday, and go from here to the Rock Tsland Arsenal. From there it will go to the Pacific coast, visiting Washington, Oregon and California. Secretary Fortune outlined to the directors at yesterday's meeting the character of the works to be erected and the requirements as to location. The army officers coming here are to investigate the possibilities of two distinct kinds of establishments in the localities named above, an establishment for making the masses of forged steel roughly shaped to the required dimensions, and a lactory for boring, turning, finishing and assembling the several parts into the completed sun. The cost of the steelworks, equipped with the necessary machinery, will bo from 82,500,000 to $3,500,000. Its output will be about thirty-five sets of forcings for twelvo-inch guns per annum and a correspondingly larger number of smaller caliber. The gun foundry proper will cost about 81,000.000, but a necessary accessory plant will increase this amount considerably. What is known as a proving grouud" for testing the guns with service charges and projectiles will be needed, and this will require a range of several miles over level ground, not valuable for other purposes, and where life and property will not be endangered. The government, however, does not anticipate finding near the factory site such a range, and it will probably be sought at a distance, which should be within fifty miles of the factory. The guns to be manufactured will weight fifty-two gross tons. The board wants to find out if private capital to a large amount can be brought to - the government's aid in the erection of the steel-works. The plant will be so largo that the possibilities of finding other uses for. it than the production of gun forgings roust be considered. The whole expense of construction, equipment and maintenance ot the gun foundry will be borne by the government. ' It is desirable that there should be an abundant supply of both skilled and unskilled labor in the locality or localities chosen for the two plants. The proximity of iron-ore beds is an advantage which will cut considerable figure 'with the board in its selection. ' The report of the treasurer of the finance committee showed a balance on band of $11,129.08. A resolution was adopted commending tho coming chrysanthemum show as worthy the patronage and snpport of everyone. The Bhow will be held Nov. 11 to 15. After the directors had concluded their business they discussed the building -project informally. . .. i . Freight Bureau Projected. -The meeting to organize a freight bureau .will be held at Board of Trade Hall to-morrow evening. The business men of Indianapolis are taking considerable interest in ' the matter.
DEATH OF AN AGED LADY. One "Who Saw Indianapolis Develop from Log 'Houses to One of the Largest Cities of the West. cr Mrs. Elizabeth Denny, widow of Thodore V. Denny, who died on Monday, aged eightyfive years and six months, at the residence 'ttf 'her daughter, Mrs. John W. Thompson, TKV. Fletcher avenue, was one of the old--est residents of this State, having lived in Indiana continuously since 1818. and in this county sixty-seven years. When she came to Marion county thero were but six houses in the territory now covered by this city. Her husband was one of the organizers of the First and then the only Baptist church In Indianapolis, and in the death ol Mrs. Denny that church loses its oldest member. She was an earnest and zealous believer in the doctrines of her church, and a few years ago made donations amounting to $1,500 to Franklin College and to foreign and home missions. For several months past she visibly failed in body.and mind. One week before her death she fell into a stupor from which she ne ver wholly aroused. She was the mother of eleven children, three of whom died in infaucy. two after maturity, and six survive. Her surviving children arc Mrs. John W. Thompson. No. 184 Fletcher avenue: Joseph Addison Denny, Lake City, la.; William C. Denny, Prospect street: Mrs. J. H. Vanderaan, Warren township; Austin F. and Albert W. Denny, of this city. She leaves twenty grandchildren and nine great-grandchildren. In the campaign of 1SSS it was matter of newspaper comment that her sons, sons-in-law and' grandsons, nineteen in number, all but one voted the Republican ticket. DID NOT NEED THE MEN. Conncilman Markey Says It Was No Lockout at His Foundry but a Reduction of Force. It was stated in an afternoon paper yesterday that 1 the xnolders and helpers at Councilman Thomas Markey's South-side foundry had been locked ouu Upon going to work Monday some of the men said they were notified there was no work for them. They expressed surprise at this as they believed there weio orders sufiicient from the gas, water, street railroad and paving companies to keep the foundry operating with full force all winter. It is further claimed by the discharged men that later in tho day Mr. Markey offered to.pnt them on again bnt at 22 cents less wages per hour. This oiler the men would not accept. It is . further stated by the men that they went in tho foundry with a promise of permanent employment. Mr. Markey, though, denies there was any lockout. "It was simplv a matter of business," said he last mg'ht, "whether with slack work and no sign of improvement to continue a full force or retrench nntil we had more work. The question of wages was -not in any sense considered. Under pressure we determined to have a heat every other day iustead of every day. This left us with one-half more men than we needed. Monday I told our employes of this fact and took one-half off the pay-roll, after paying each man what was due him. A reduction of wages was not mentioned. In a word, we had more men than we needed. If work does not justify emnloying the number we have now more men will be laid off." Beaten at a Demdcratle Meeting. Timothy Sullivan, a Big Four sectionhand, was roughly assaulted last night, in Kelly's saloon, on Meek street, where a Democratic political meeting was in progress. The assailants, Sullivan charges, were Michael Dntfy and John Burk. who live a few doors from the saloon. Sullivan was brutally beaten about the face and kicked in the stomach and back. He was a sorry-looking spectacle when he reported the case to the police. Foot-Pads Broke Greenwald's Nose.
