EBENSBl'RO, CAMBRIA CO., PA., FRIDAY, - 'JULY 31. l.. Bryan, the Democratic nominee for president, is booked to delilver four speeches in this stale during the cam paign. One of our Kepublitai contemporaries sees "danger theratening our free institu tions" when "one of the great parlies recognizes such men as William J. Bryan and Senator Jones as leaders." Doubt le& it prefers for leaders that brand of patriots of which Senator Quay and Tom Piatt are conspicuous types. In the Republican national platform of 18SS we tind this declaration on the money question: "The Republican par ty is in favor of both gold and silver as money." Four years later the national assemblage of that pirty declared that: "The American people, from tradition, and interest, favor bimetallism and the Republican parly demands the use of both gold and silver as standard money." How about that "tradition and interest" now. Secretary Carlisle said, Feb. 21, IS7S: "The conspiracy which seems to have been formed here and in Europe to destroy by legislation and otherwise from three sevenths to one-half of the metal ic money of the world, is the most gigantic crime of this or any other age. The consumption of such a scheme would ultimately entail more misery upon the human race than all the wars, pestilence and famines that ever occured in the history of the world." The Republican papers are publishing column after column of interviews with bankers, brokeis, railroad presidents and millionaires who declare their intention to bolt the Chicago convention and vote for McKinley. Bad as free silver is, according to the Republican press, this policy is likely to strenghten the white metal cause. The fact is, the free silver people don't want the support of the brokers and railroad presidents and it will be good news to them to learn that they will bolt. From 1792 up to lebruary 12 1873, silver in this country had the right of free coinage at the United States mints, the same as gold and during that time there was particularly no Hunctuation in the parity of the two metals. The greatest difference known in the market price in silver and gold bullion, at the ratio of 16 to 1, in that period was two per cent., which was owing to special causes. An experiment of 81 years ful ly justifies the belief that free coinage would again restore the parity not only between money but property in general. In a recent interview, Senator Jones, chairman of the Democratic national committee Eaid: "The eastern papers which are belittling this movement are simply doiDg now what they have done in the past. They are not hurting us, and they are deceiving their own people. We have strengthened our platform by our nominees, and we are certain to win. Illinois, Indiana and Iowa are safely Democratic, and the east is debatable ground. Not only will we elect our president and vice president, but we will have a majority of the next house of representatives, even if we do not get a single congressman out of the eastern states." The Democratic state committee of New York, met at the Hoffman house in New York city on Wednesday and at a session lasting only 10 minutes decided to call the convention for the nomina- ation of state officers to meet at Buffalo on September 16. No other business was considered at the meeting. Prior to the meeting, several of thei leaders among the committeemen were ques tioned a9 to the probable action of the state convention in regard to the candi dates and platform of the national con vention, recently held at Chicago. The general sentiment, was that the candi dates will be indorsed but' on the sub ject of the platform there was less unan imity. The cost of the division encampment of the National Guard at Lewistown will foot up not less than $200,000. The pay of the troops alone aggregates 1139,139,94. The First brigade has re ceived of this amount $42,006.92 and the Third brigade $42,722 01. The bal ance goes to the Second brigade and general division head quarters. The cost of transporting the troops and their supplies to and from Lewistown will amount to at least $40,000. The sub sistence bills and the bills for horse hire and other necessaries will aggregate $35,000 or $40,000. These bills will be paid by General Stewart as soon as they have been received and approved by the military board. The state makes an an nual appropriation of $325,000 for the support of the National Guard. The army worm is a species of cater pillar. It hatches from an egg deposited from the night-flying moth. Like the moth, the caterpillar prefers the night for labor and ordinarily remains quiet during the day. The hot sun is dis tasteful to the worms, and they die if exposed to it for a considerable time. The moth that lays the eggs is nearly one inch long and is one and three quarters inches from tip to tip of wing. The eggs are deposited in rows of from fifteen to thirty near the roots of grass and grain where they will be protected. More than 700 eggs have been found in the body of a moth when dissected. So earnestly does the female work while laying eggs that she dies after two nights of hard labor. The worms hatch a week or ten day s after the eggs are laid, the time depending somewhat on the cli mate. When their lives as caterpillars are ended they burrow into the ground and remain there until spring, when they emerge as moths to Jay eggs to pro duce more worms. From time to time, says the Altoona Tinms, we see minors of a threatened boll of the gold standard Democrats against the Chicago platform and nominations of Messrs Bryan and Sew.ll. A coufer ence of a few of these gentlemen was re cently held in Chicago and it was de cided to organize a nations! committee and call a couvention to be held not la ter than September. 2 to nominate can didates f'"r president and vice president. It is poss-ible that such a body may meet. But if it does it will not amount to much for the reason that there is no popular support back of the bolters The gold Democrats number but a small percentage of the membership of the Democratic party. But, small as that percentage is, the majority of them wil: refuse to oppose the regular ticket and help to elect MKinley. Even if they cannot endorse the platform, they are not prepared to play into the hands of an organizition whose ascendency in the affairs of the nation they object tt for other reasons than those connect ed with the currency question. There are thousands of men who ad vocated the gold standard who have loy ally accepted the decision of the Chica go convention from a firm conviction that the Democratic party will do noth ing to injure the country that it has dune so much for in the past hun dred years. They believe that the majority should rule and that an adher ence to that principle will generally le j found the best thing in the end. It is impossible to frame a platform for a party numbering millions of mem bers that will please everyone of them. Some will be disappointed because a cer tain declaration was not put in the doc ument and another will be displeased for the reason that the platform calls for something which he cannot approve. It is needless to point out, therefore, why a platform cannot have general ac ceptance in all its details. It represents, nowever, the opinions of the majority on all the subjects considered. But apart from these consideration?, the convention of the gold standard Dem ocrats, if it should meet, Rill be nothing more than a ripple of the political wa ters. It will hardly be noticed. The nominations of Bryan and Sewall and the adoption of the Chicago plat form are proving to be decidedly popu lar, and the current of popular favor which has set in for the Democratic can didates and platform cannot be checked by a demonstration to the contrary. Some of the Hopping eastern Demo cratic papers are making great ado over the patriotism of the eastern bankers in coming to the rescue of the government by replenishing the treasury gold reserve from their private hordes. Patriotism, indeed. These llopdoddle papers do not tell their readers that these patriotic bankers and money mongers take from the government in exchange for their gold government paper that is redeema ble in the yellow metal. If England or any other European country would make a demand to-morrow on these same, pa triotic gentlemen for gold they would present their paper at the national treas ury and ship the gold abroad. Their patriotism is simply nothing more nor less than a political dodge. Were we not on the eve of the presiden cial campaign, with the money ques tion as the issue, these patriotic bankers and money mongers would show their patriotism by inducing the government to make another bond issue to replenish the federal treasury and out of which they would make a big profit. This is patriotism with a vengeance, isn't it. Ix order to correct a misapprehension as to his views regarding the prospective result of the election of a free silver tick et, the Hon. Richard P. Bland writes to the New York Journal: "I have been quoted as sayiug that if free silver won in the coming election there would be in my opinion a short lived panic. This is a mistake. In my judgment the success of a free silver ticket would bring nothing but prosperi ty. There would be no sort of a panic. Even Mr. Carlisle, our secretary of the treasury, admits that the restoration of silver would cause a rise in the value of all commodities. The congestion of money in the general centres would be relieved, owing to the desire of capital ists to invest in the rising market. With money llowing from the glutted coffers of the rich into the various channels of trade there would be great financial activity. This condition would preclude the possibility of a panic. Panics are not born of active trade, nu merous investments and circulating cur rency." Treasurer W. P. St. John, of the na tional committee has applied in New York for the use of Madison Square garden for Wednesday, August 12, for the Bryan notification meeting. He was told that he could, likely, have it that day but that the matter would be presented for the consideration of the board of directors. Treasurer St. John was notified that if he got the garden it would probably be on the same terms that it was leased to the national Demo cratic committee in 1S92, when Cleve land and Stevenson were notified. The price paid at ihat time was $1,800. Mr. St. John was also told that his na tional committee would have to give bonds for between $3,000 and 4,000 to make good any possible damage the property might suffer from enthusiastic Democrats. New York is to have a new and tall palace hotel that will cost $2,000,000. The plans were submitted to the depart ment of buildings for the erection of such a fifteen-story structure on the northeast corner of Broadway and Thirty-seventh streets, extendidg te Thirty-eight street The new hotel will be called the Hobart estate hotel. It will be of steel skeleton construction on a rock and concrete foundation. The fronts of the new build ing will be of brick and granite and coped with terra cotta, to be topped by a flat roof. Washington Letter. Washington, July 24th, 1896. Sena- i tor Faulkner, chairman of the Demo cratic congressional committee, is being ditily astonished at the extraordinaiy in creJW in silver wntiment in the middle and eastern states, as s'jown by letters written to the committee asking for in formation and literature on the subject. He is also surprised t see that a major ity of these suckers after silver docu uieuts, iu.-tead of U-iiiii farmers, are professional and business men residing tn towns and citits Spi-aking on the subject Senator Faulkner said: "I am as tounded at the tone of some of the let ters I am receiving, and it appears to me that the silver wave is sweeping over 'he east with as much force as it has. shown iu the west and south. It may tie permauent or it nwv be only tempo rary, but that it exists now is certain." Senator Faulkner is not the sort of man to allow his enthusiasm to bias his judg ment; hence his declaration of his belief, that uulcss some great reaction takes place, which will chauge existing public sentiment before election day, Bryan will be elected by a large malonty, car ries great weight. Representative Halt, of Pa,, says his district (the eighht) will roll up a good majority for JJryam and Sewall. He cays there are very few Democrats iu the district who have said they would not support the Chicago ticket and platform, but that a great many Republicans have come out for Bryan and Sewall and free silver. He says that, the tariff question cuts uo figure at all among his people, but that they are all anxious to learn everything xjssible about the silver question. It was largely to satisfy their yearnings iu that line that Mr. Hart came to Washington. He has arranged with the congressional committee to send a lot of silver literature to his constitu ents. Among the documents to ie sent is the Chicago speech of Mr. Bryan, which Senator Faulkuer siys "is about the best statemeut of the silver question, from our standpoint, that has been made." Hon. William J. Hendrick, ex-Attorney General of Kentucky, said in Wash ington this week: "In ibe fierce con test tnat has been waged iu Kentucky between the gold and silver partisaus my voice and iuilueuce have ever been on the side of sound money. I still ad here to the opinion that free silver coin age by this government, independently, of the other great nations, would be a mistake. But I am a Democrat, and Democracy stands for so many other things tesideS free silver that it is im possible for me to renounce my p.irty al legience, and I shall cheerfully do all in my ower to promote the success of the Chicago ticket. With all the faults of the platform it is infinitely better than McKinleyism. Bryan and Sewall will unquestionably carry Kentucky." There is some talk about establishing a Democratic daily uewspaer iu Wash ington which will support Bryan and Se wall and the Chicago platform. Por haps such a paper might make some votts, but, in my opinion, it would not make oue per cent of the votes that could be made by spending the amount of money that it would cost to run a Washington daily during the campaign in circulating the Democratic dailies and weeklies already established and enjoy ing mure prestige in their localities than a Washington paper could possibly get. Mr. S. I). Weaver, city attorney of Burlington, Kans., who is uow visiting Washington, says: "It is the opinion of conservative men that Bryan w ill car ry Kansas. It is true that some Demo crats who believe in sound money will nut support him, and yet more of these will vote for him than will support Mc Kinley. There are also a great manv silver Republicans in the state who will vote for Bryan." Theatrical men are as a rule good judges of the drift of public sentiment. Mr. J. W. Morrisey, widely known as a manager, says of a coming event: Bryan's descent on New York will le a stupendous affair. He will pack Madi son Square tiarden to its limit 16,000 people but 10,000 more will le in the streets to give him welcome. Duly fraction of that monster gathering will be able to hear a word he utters, -but few will fail to read it afterwards. Al ready there is a big chance of sentiment in New lork favorable to silver, and Bryan's coming will make converts by the thousand. While it cannot be said that the ac tion of the populist convention was al together satisfactory to Democrats, none of them are disposed to worry about it, because their minds were made up be fore the convention met that Bryan would get the vote of every Populist who does not wish to throw his vote away, regardless of what the convention might do, and there was nothing about the work of the convention to cause them to change their opinion. m. May Result Fatally. Tottsville, Pa., July 26. At mid night last night two Italians named Le vy Denorda and Joe Wallendo attacked llham Travis. Wallendo used a knife, cutting Travis's nose off, and stabbed him in the right arm and left side, near the lung. During the fight Denorda struck Iravis with a stone. Both Ital lans were committed to prison without bail. Travis, whose injuries are consid ered fatal, was removed to the hospi tal. For some time past a bad feeling haa existed between the families of Ed ward Martin and William Snyder, who reside at Giloerton, this county. Last evening a quarrel arose between them Martin seized a double barreled 6hot gun and fired at Snyder and his wife, who Stood in the yard. Their injuries are not serious. Martin entered bail in the sum of $1,000. Miners Compelled to He-turn Home. Barclay, Ills., July 26. A mob of 200 striking miners from the miningdis tricts of Rever n and Spaulding, 111., marched to thia place yesterday and compelled the nnuers to return home. They would not allow the men to go to work on account of a reduction of 35 cents per ton to 32J cents per ton. The Barclay miners agreed to work no more until next luesdav. An effort is being made to call out all the miners in this district, and a large mass meeting will be held in Spaulding on Monday to take action on the matter. It is said that the miners will resume work to-morrow morning, and serious trouble w expec ed if they do. Flood Damage in Pennsylvania. Pittsburg, July 27. The Monongabe la and Allegheny valleys were flood swept on Saturday. The two rivers were twenty-two feet nine inches high at Pittsburg in the evening, but the waters have now receded. Every stream and creek north of the Ohio and West of the mountains was out of its banks. In western Pennsylvania alone the damage will be hardly covered by $5,000,000. In this city low lyirg districts were sub merged. Coal craft of all kinds broke loose during the day, and much has gone to the bottom. Highest of all in Leavening Power. 0 Two ere -t A way.

Roach and Hutchison, two of the young convicts who ten days ago overpowered and gagged Keeper Nepps, of the Hunting don Reformatory aud escaped, are hid ing iu the mountains of this country, though hotly pursued. Young Walton, of Altoona, the other of the absconding trio, who has been returned to the in- ' stittition by his father, says that "Roach and Hutchison wanted to drown the keeper after they had tied him, but that he prevented them. Walton left the others because they talked of killing any one who tried. to retake them. Roach and Hutchison last week stole a horse near Orbisonia, robbed several stores in that town and then came into this county. They were seen several times, and on Thursday evening the chief of police of Huntingdon arrived in Fannettsburg in search of them. In company with Ex-Sheriff Jones, of this county, the chief came upon the men near Fannettsburg, but they escaped through a cornfield, though fired at by both olrieers. The same night the fu gitives crossed the mountain into Ful ton county, but retarued again, as they were vesterday seen in Horse Valley. One is wonnded in the back. .a .. " All Had Pistols. . Hold-up robbers are at work at the Desplaines campmeeting grounds When all the campers had retired lat-t night. A. Benson, the janitor of the colony, was approached by three suspic ious looking strangers, who requested tickets entitling them to free bunks in the sleeping tents. The request was granted, but the janitor, not liking the appearance of his guests, kept a 6trict watch on them. They entered the tent about 10:20 o'clock and extinguished the lamps, saying, when remonstrated with, that the - light hurt their eyes. Believing their object was to rob the other occupants during the night, the janitor called the night watchman and explained the situation. The men were ordered to leave the tent, but refused. One of them drew a revolver, but before it could be used Watchman Minnick struck it from his hand and ejected him and his companions from the grounds. All of the men were found to have pis tols, and the police believe they intend ed robbing the entire camp. Mrange Law Salt. The case of W. S. Woods vs. Issabella Sheets, decided by Judge Mcllvane at Washington this week, is probably unique in court history. Woods bought two lots at Charleroi from Mrs. Shee's and built on them, as he supposed; but it turned out that he made a mistake and built on two lots that Peter Neshon, of Manor Station, owned. He refused to pay for the houses, allow them to be removed or Bell the lots, and Woods sued Mrs. Sheets. The court decided that, in the ab sence of any covenant in the deed that the lots staked off are the same as those sold. Woods cannot recover; that all he could recover would be the purchase money of the lot, and not for any sub sequent improvement; but that, as he still has the two lots purchased Nog. 634 and 636 he has no standing at all, and judgment is given for the defendant, It is certainly a very peculiar case, and Mr. Woods has sustained loss in a novel manner. . Mistaken For a linrglar. Chicago, July 26. Daniel Shroyer, a well-known resident of Park Ridge, was shot and killed early this morning by his son-in-law, Geo. E. Pottinger, a prominent Chicago real estate dealer who mistook him for a burglar. The shooting took place in Pottinger's home in Ingleside avenue. Mr. Shroyer had been a guest at the Pottinger homestead for several weeks. Mr. Pottinger was aroused at 3 o'clcok his morning, and thinking burglars were abroad, took his revolver and started to investigate. He was about to enter the kitchen when he saw the form of a man approaching and raising hia revolver fired one shot. The man gave vent to a startled exclamation, and Mr. PottiDger recognized his father-in-law's voice. The bullet struck Mr. Shroyer, in the groin and he died in an hour. The greatest excitement followed the shooting. Mr. Pottinger is almost dis tracted and his wife is prostrated. Man and Wire Fatally .Shot. Shenandoah, Pa., July 27. A dou le tragedy occured at Gilberton, a small town two miles from this place, Satur day afternoon, - Edward Martin, a resi dent of that place, 6booting and mor tally wounding William Snyder and his wife. Martin and Snyder were neigh bors and the two families quarreled fre quently. A dispute arose between them over some trivial matter and the two men came to blows. Martin rushed in to the house, and securing a double barreled shotgun returned to the yard, where Snyder and his wife were still standing, and emptied both barrels at them. Both fell, and Martin escaped. Latest U. S. Gov't Report l&ldini Merrymakers In White Are .Drowned at Cecil, Pa. HOUSES MVITT AWAY BY A FL00B. The RccfOt Clonitbunt Carried Hotel IdIo a Kac"'K Creek Sfo Oat of 13 Drowned Were Waitlug to On to Daoce When the House Wat struck. Pittsbi ro. July 59. The cloudburst and storm in this section caused mere loss of life than was at first supposed At Cecil, in Washington county. 13 people laughing and singing in Samuel McKinney's house, found themselves in the twinkling of an eye. in a set-thing mad swirl of water. Seveu of the merrymakers were drownea. The dead are : Mrs. Grace McKinney. aped 50. Miss Maggie MoKinney. aged 0. James McKinney. aged 6 F. Clyde Beatty, aged 26. J C Higgins, aged 50. Miss Jennie Holmes, aged IS Vincent Wilkinson of Oil Citv. aged S6. In the McKinney household on the fateful night, 13 merry people were con gregated. The girls were dressed in flowing white robes. They were going to a dance at the French hall, but the hour for starting had not yet come It is taiil that the cloud Lun-t some where about Vienna and swept toward Jteissing and Cecil, the water came down in torrents. The country between Vienna and Cecil is sloping, and McKinney's eight roomed hotel stood just in that position where it would catch the full force of thestorm. The race of the flour mill nearby broke and struck the house with a fear ful blow. The force and momentum lifted the houfe from its foundations, twisted it aronnd and sent it into the middle of the furious creek. The house flew down the stream and passed the railroad station and struck the bridge, 200 yards away. One loud crack and the lower floor was turned into a raft, on which the people stood ; the lights on the table still burned. Before the bridge was passed two of the former happy throng, Maggie Mc Kinney and Jennie Holmes, had been hurled into the angry current to death. It was iust tefore the Standard bloc k was reached that Mrs. McKinney and he? boy were washed from the raft and drowned before the eyes of thce yet awaiting death or rescue. Just previous to this moment Clyde Beatty clasped Rachel McKinney and Jennie Holmes in his arms and said : Girls, I will save you or die with you." And he did die. but Rachel was saved, though Jennie was drowned. It was at Gladdon that Samuel Mc Kinney, Rachel McKinney and J. C. Higgins were tumbled into the stream. The last drifted into deep water and was drowned. Rachel McKinney. how ever, felt her feet touching the ground, and as the lightning flashed, saw some weeds, grasped them and held cn with superhuman grip until rescued. Her father was tut a little distance off. He had, too, found ground in the shallow water to stand upon, and, like his daughter, had discovered the saving weed and clutched them until rescued Rescuers fished out James Pierce, Charles Reddick, Lizzie Holmes, who was clinging to a tree; Sam and Robert McKinney. Jim Wilkinson escaped from the house As soon as he reached terra hnna he ran toward the bridge, and while descending some step near the bridge was caught by a pushing wave and swiftly carried to his death. The body of little James McKinney was found near Gladden's coal mine, one and a half miles from where the hotel stood. About a mile further down the stream, near the village of Trey veskan. The tody of his mother. Mrs. Grace McKinney, was found. The tody cf F Clyde Beatty was found fctout a quarter of a mile below where Mrs. McKinney was found. The tody of J. C. Higgins was discovered in a imall ravine that lead into the stream near the Gladden mine. The lifeless fcrm cf Miss Jennie Holmes was found hanging ;n the branches of a tree near Treyveskan. The last body to be found was that of Miss Maggie McKinney. It was found on the banks of the stream below Eridgeville, about five miles from where she was last seen alive. The tcdy or Vincent Wilkinson was found near the bridge, where the building waj wrecked. Woolrifce Rapist Lynched. SedaLIa, Mo., July 29.
