THE PITTSBURG- DISPATGH.- FRIDAY, JANUARY 16, 1S9L
A POLITICAL PERIL.
Tho Coming Convention at Galion of
the Farmers' Alliance.
ITS fEOBABLE EFFECT IS OHIO.
A Braddock Mill to Manufacture Armor
Plates for War Snips.
IMPORTANT LIFE INSURANCE SUIT
f6rr.CIAI. TELEOHAM TO TEE IllSFATCH.1
Cleveland, Jan. 15 Considerable in
terest is being manifested in political circles
in Ohio, as well as among the farmers them
seWes, regarding the probable action of the
farmers' Alliance at its State Convention,
to be held at Galion next Tuesday. This
arises from the circumstances under which
the convention will meet, as well as Iroia the
past action of the farmers ot the State. One
Tear ago the Alliance declared, in a mild
sort of war, in lavor of a protective tariff,
and unhesitatingly followed the example of
Judjre Lawrence and other Ohio wool grow
ers in demanding a higher tariff on wool.
At that time the iliance was in its infancy
in tbc State, and had, all told, less than
5,000 members, so that a comparatively
small majority could swing the body either
way. During the year the country has ex
perienced the McKiuley Dill and a political
revolution of unheard-of magnitude. The
Winers bare studied the tariff, and had it
talked at them as never before, and It will be
interesting to notice how far all this has af
fected the attitude of the Alliance in Ohio.
The Political Effect of the Decision.
The decisions of the Alliance are likely to
have a very marked influence on party action
During the 12 months the order has had an un
precedented growth. There are now over COO
sub-Alliances in the State, and the total mem
bership is not far short of 30,000. An Increase
of over 500 per cent in membership in one year
shows an auakeniug among the agriculturists
that is very significant. These men hold much
more than the balance of power in the State,
ana neither party is in a position where it can
afford to antagonize them.
If. for example, these delegates, representing
the farmers ot Ohio, should declare against the
McKmley bill and its high protection, it would
go farther toward squelching the great boom
which the Republican papers ot the State have
been gtvinir UcKlnley for Governor next fall
than any other one influence could.
It is significant that Joshua Crawford, the
Secretarv of the State Alliance, has recently
said: "We are not ready for separate political
action, and will not be until 200,000 farmers are
ready to say they will vote anil orK in union,"
ami he adds: "At the rate we are now growing
that time may not be far away."
rolitical Action Highly Probable.
Tins represent! the feeling of the conserva
tive wing of the order in the State, and makes
it clear that even if the conservatives continue
in control, which is not certain, the order may
be expected to begin active participation in
politics not later than 1S92, for at the present
rate of growth it will uuuibtr 200,000 in Ohio be
fore the next Prcsidental election.
The uorkinginen of the faute have also ar
ranged to hold a State convention in Galion on
the same das as the Farmers' Alliance conven
tion. It is understood an attempt will be made
to unite the conventions so far as public affairs
go, and secure the adoption of a harmonious
course of political action. It is also etatea that
the old Greenbackers will make overtures to
the Farmers" Alliance people and attempt to
form a union with them.

rrEClAL TELEGBAM TO THE DISPATCH. 1
CxioxTovy. Jan. 15. The Southwest Penn
sylvania Itailroad Company and the Union
town Electric Street RailnayConipauy clashea
together this afternoon over the right of the
latter to crous the track of the former with
their wires, and for a time it looked as if there
-iaa going to be a lively luttie. The Southm est
Couipiny has not given the Klectnc Company
the right to cross its tracKs, wanting the Elec
tric Company beforehand to enter into a bond
to protect them m rac of .accident. The i-Iec-tic
Company claimed fie right to cross with
out the railroad company's consent, and pro
ceeded Monday to string its wires across the
tracks.
About 2 o'clock this afternoon a shifter ran
up to the crossing at the western bridge. Two
men on board pulled down the trolley wire
v. ith a hook and cut it in t o. About the same
time another gang came up on the main hue
and pulled the wire down at the corner of
31ain street and Broadway. Councilman W. C
MiCormick, Superintendent of the Electric
Company, immediately placed men to repair
ing the wire and stationed police about to pre
1 ent any interruption.
Uy this time a big crowd had gathered and
the excitement was very warm. The railroad
compauj ran in a carload of seotion
lianus toj protect their interests. The
wire was repaired, and shortly after Ken
Way. a Pennsjlvania Itailroad policeman,
sprang upon the top of a coach and cut the
mro .igain with an ax. As soon as the train
jinllcd ou;, the electric linemen spliced the
vurc again. It i expected that the wires will
e cut again to-night, and it is feared the dis
pute may result seriously befote It is settled.
SUING FOE LIFE IKSTJEAHCE.
The Decision Turns Upon the Question of
Suicide or Accident.
TTECIAt. TE1.EORAM TO TUS DISPATCH.:
Scraston. Jan. 15. A case now being tried
in the Lackawanna courts recalls the sensa
tional death of Henry AVahlers, a very promi
nent hotel man of this city. May 30. 1&S7. 'Wati
lers was a man of most sunny temperament and
jcnial disposition, who was seemingly prosper
ing and who did not appear to have a care in
the world One fine spring afternoon, while
preparing to attend a picnic, he retired to his
bedroom. A few minutes later a dull report
was heard, and when the door of his room was
thrown open he w as f ound w eltering in blood
on the floor, quite dead. A bullet had entered
lus mouth and passed out at the crown ot his
bead. The revolver lay beside him.
A coroner's jury said it was suicide. The
widow of Wahlers has always maintained that
her husband's death was an accident, and
brought suit to recover of theKidelitvand
asualty Company, of New York, the $2,000 in
surance which he carried on his life. The case
was tried in court to-day. The widow at
tempted to show that her husband had no
reason for suicide, and was evidently accident
ally shot while blowing the dust out of the bar
rel of the weapon. The defense called physi
cians to the stand, as experts, to show that
from the nature of the wound it could notbave
been inflicted accidentally, but they only par
tially succeeded. The jury is now out. Tneir
decision will be rendered in the morning.

A Pleasing Sense
Of health and strength renewed, of ease and
comfort follows the use of Syrup of Figs, as it
acts in harmony with nature to effectually
cleanse the system when costive or billons. For
sale in 50c and SI bottles by all leading drug
gists. Causes of Scrofula
First of all. Scrofula is inherited. The large
majority of people suffer more or less from im
pure blood given them by their parents.
Second, Scrofula may be acquired by trying
to live on insufficient and poorly-cooked food,
which fails to supply the blood with enough of
tho elements of life and health.
Third, confinement in poorly ventilated
rooms, workshops or factories, or IivintfMn
danm, unhealthy localities, will poison tho
blood and develop Scrofula.
For all Cases
Of scrofula, whether inherited or acquired, and
in whatever form, Hood's Sarsaparilla is the
most successful medicine known. It thoroughly
expels every trace of impurity, gives the blood
those elements of health and vitality which it
craves, and helps the liver and kidneys, the
great sewers ot tho system, to perform their
natural duties.
