THE CAUSES OFTHE PRFSENT FEELING
ferrrTAL TELronxu to tiie dispatch-i
Toronto, April S. Ernest Albert Mac
Oonald, who gained some distinction here
as an Alderman for several years, wa a
mayoralty candidate in this city a year asjo,
and has announced himself as an annexa
tionist candidate far Parliamentary honors
in a coming bye-election, has been ac
tively ensa;ed for several months in a
scries of meetings in AVestern Ontario, in
the interest of political union with the
United States. In reply to a question as to
t hat was the cause ot a revival of interest
In the question of annexation Mr. Mac
donnld to-day said:
"The rommercial depression that now
prevails in the country, and the disappoint
ing eensus returns are largely the cause of
j he attention that is being tie voted to the
question at present. But we do not care to
call it a movement for annexation, we pre
fer to call it political union."
"What is the objection to the term an
nexation?" "Well, it implies something which we
do not wish to be confounded with the in
tentions ol our movement. The word an
nexation implies force and a loss of dig
nity. What we want is honorable union.
'How do you find the movement received
in the western part of this province?"
3!any Are TVild Tor Annexation.
"The people in some parts are wild for
the proposed change, especially in the agri
cultural districts. "We take a vote on the
question wherever it is possible, and in
Puns, an Inland town of 4.0C0 whore wo
held a meeting recently, we submitted nvo
different motions on the political destiny of
CanadJ, and the voting was as follows: Ite
mainas we nro, 6fl: indcnondVnt monarchy,
2; Independent republic, f: imperial federa
tion, 1: political union with the United
States, JOT'
"Flow is tho annexation question viewed
In the Canadian border townsT"
"I have make a careful Investigation In a
numberoT the border settlements, and I And
a vrry strons feelinj: In favor of political
union. But, of course, that is only natural
in those places, where the advantages to
b? derived from such a policv are constantly
before the eves of Canadian wlio live in
suc.i close proximity to tho United States.
These people re that their natural markets
are in the United States and even now they
pat ionize them to a considerable extent.
Take AViwdsor, for instance. The people of
tnat town are nnnble to snpplv
many of their wants . there, and
the nearest cities arc London and
Detroit The former Is 110 miles distant.
The latter is so convenient that Windsor
people can gp over to the city and return at
a co-t, bv buying tickets on the ferry, for 3
ce-ts for the ronnd trio. If they are known
rcdenis of Wludtor they have little or no
trouble with the Canadian customs officers.
Not Much Xerd of Annexation.
' "In fact, I believe these officers wink at
infractions of the customs laws by the peo
ple who make their purchases in Detroit,
and I think it is done with the object of not
encendering a greater feeling of opposition
ncainst the custom laws than now exist.
Ifilie custom laws in these border towns
w -if more rigorously enforced I ibelieve it
wo-i'.d increase tho popular feeling for polit
ical nnion."
"Is it yonrputpose.and that ofyour friends,
to make a vigorous campaign in favor of
political nnion?"
"Ye w c intend to contest every Parlia
mentary constituency open after this. We
regard the opening of thisconstitnency the
city ot Toronto at the present tinn
as almost providential, because
Toronto is the only constituency
that returns three members by a cumulative
vote. Thus, in electing one to All the va
cancy in the Ontario Legislature, we will
got a vote from an electorate of 32,000. I am
sure tlier are thousand" upon thousands of
political Unionists in Toionto, and if we
only have 25 per cent of the electorate with
no It will show the feeling of the people in"
this city on the question of political union.
The customs regulations ate so oppressive
that; I believe most or tho Importers in To
ronto are political unionists."
Every Border Placo to Tt Contrsted.
"Will you offer a political Unionist candi
date In Welland for the House of Com
mons!" "Yes, we will contest Welland; and, as that
is a border constituency, we hope to make a
good fchowing there. If we succeed in get
ting a candidate elected in Welland
we shall have him Introduce a mo
tion in favor of political union in
the Dominion Parliament at Ottawa.
Our opponents say we could not get the
terms we propose as a basis for political
union. we cannot approach the United
States Government in anjr way to ascertain
it these terms would be received, but wo
feel there is no reason why we cannot con
sult thi American popular leeling on
the matter, a well as that of
the Canadian people. tt'e piopose
holding meetings In Xew Tork, Boston,
Philadelphia. Chicago. Buffalo and other
Northern cities, with a view of laying our
jiiic uuimiu nic jicupio ill inuee Allies null
getting an expression of opinion on the
Question. If it be received favorably by the
pre-sand public men, it can be assumed, that
we would be lairly dealt with in asking for
union."
BTTSIED BY KEIGHB0BS.
A Soho ?Ian Locked Up to Keep Him Away
Troin Ills Wife's Funeral.
Michael Sweeney, a Soho laborer, whose
home is at93Tustiu street, spent yesterday

wife, who has borne him eight children and
who died Friday morning at the birth of the
ninth child, could be decently and quietly

Uglv stories are told of Sweeney by his
neighbors, and his actions In the present
ea lully corroborate them. Sweeney has
lour children living, a boy of 14, a gitlofl2
and two little one1-, almost babies.
Mrs. Sweenev took very sick Thnrsdav
evening. Drs. Mover and Miller were called
in and spent the night trying to relieve her,
but in spite of their efforts, after eight
hours of terrible suffering, sho died on Sat
urday morning. Her child never saw the
light of dav.
While the poor woman was struggling
with death Thursday night, it is alleged that
lier husband went out and got drunk, and
letuniing, spent the night abusing the nr
lcring woman and the attending physicians.
Alter tho death he returned to the saloon
tor a fieih.supplyof liquor, and spent most
orth" day theie uine the money "which his
son had earnedln a Southslde glass works,
ami w hich had been intended for food, of
which there was none In the house. Several
times Fridav the neighbors -were compelled
to interfere to save the boy from the drunken
lather's abuse.
It being evident that Sweeney would make
no arrangements lor burring his wile, his
rciglibors and Father Corcoran, of St.
Bridget's Church, raised a collection on Sat

MaryConnell. a demented woman or Mill

arrested and turned over to her triends.
MORE MARKED MEN.
Continued From First Page.
RntH TnalHnff In fnn.t t.hT mirrht be enllerl
mountain spiritualists. The only difference
between this class and the ones more civfl
iied is that they prefer to operate on the
living rather than the dead. Jonathan
Ilochstetler was the only educated man
among them. Re had once taught a distriot
school and was well read. He had about GO
books by tbe standard authors and would
with pride point out to visitors his library.
Suspect! Given 'o Quarter.
The feua that has existed between the
Millers and Hochtetlers tho latters' still was
burned and some of his cattle shot down
In the field. Others who have talked have
suffered the same. A horse or a colt would
be shot down or a hay stack burned. This
has always been warning enough to the
mncntainers and there is no record of any
murder save this ono and the others that
are liable to result from it.
In one case an undertaker near Jit. Pleas
ant saw a mountaineer come down one night
with a load of mountain dew,and was indis
creet enough to talk about It. The mount
aineer simply stole his hearse, hauled it
across the mountains and sold it. As soon
as they commit any depredation they retreat
to the mountains and are practically lest.
In nearlv every cave and gully they
have had a still, and as the officers
approach they simply load up the stills on
sleds and start through tho woods. Last
winter ono man was followed for ten miles.
He drove over fallen legs and through places
the officers were afraid to follow, and they
finally gave up. These mountains extend
clear "down into Tennessee, so that unless
the fugitives are out off thev can, under the
cover of the forests, escape detection and be
among triends the whole way. In this case,
however. Miller and Pritts are old men and
have families and will not go far away from
home.
The only ledeeming feature of this wild
country are the mountain women. Unlike
the men they are short and wiry, and some
of the young girls are extremely prettv.
Pritts' wife, if clad In good clothes, would
be considered a handsomo woman, and her
daughter is pretty as a peach. They all have
fresh, rosy complexions and are as hardy as
the men. They have neat, trim ankles, and
whether it is from vanity on this point or
from the scarcitv of clothes, they nearly all
are dressed a la ballet and are finely formed.
Christt.
OFFICERS ARE CONFIDENT.
All Arranged for a Fresh Hunt Too Much
ISrass Hand So Far What the Shrnff
and the Chief of Police Save to Say.
TrnAI, TltttOBAM TO THS PIsPATClT.t
Somerset, April 3. Your correspondent
this evening visited Sheriff Good at the jaiL
He said: "You cannot understand or
imagine the condition of that moonshine
district without going down there yourself.
The whole mountain side is unquestionably
handed together in the boldest of moonshine
operations, and during the present excite
ment anv strancer who coes there lakes his
life in his hands. The better class of citizens
there are horrified at the murder, and
will not assist tho murderers to escape. They
will htnnd by tho moonshiners, however, in
their fight against the revenue officers, and
It Is hard to get any information whatever
regarding their operations. We will have a
blgjob in bagging those fellows, but unless
our plans mlscarrr we will have them in Jail
within the next iS hours. The one thing I
am afraid of is that a couple more murders
mar be committed before they are cap
tured." Young Bob Miller Is Mum.
In company with one of the officers who
had been out with the Sheriff a call was
made on youn-r Bob Miller. He is a fine
specimen of young manhood, straight as an
arrow, well built and muscular. He in
quired of the officer whether he had seen
his wife and child and ask how thev were.
bat would express no desire to know of the
particnlars of the attempt to capture his
father and Pritts. and refused to express his
opinion as to their probable whereabouts.
United States Detective Schlo3ser,who was
with the Sheriff's party.left this evening for
Washington in response to a telegram
from Commissioner Maon. Before leaving
he said the Commissioner had decided to
take a hand in the hunt as Hochstetler had
been murdered for testifying in behalf of the
Government and that he expected to return
within the next 24 hours with a few exper
ienced detectives.
Chief of Police Gilbert was seen at a late
hour this evening and from him it was
learned that a small squad of resolute men
will leave here to-night for- Trent, nd it is
expected thev will land Sillier and Pritts in
the countv jail before this time to-morrow
night. Mr. Gilbert is familiar with everv
foot of the moonshine countrv, and is well
known to all mountaineers. He is a famous
hunter and has spent davs and weeks roam
ing over the mountains in that part of the
country, and is looked upon as a friend and
comrade by many of the moonshiners.
Ton Mncti Brass Band.
He said to your reporter to-night It is
time that the revenue officers were learning
that this isn't the season of the year to bunt
moonshiners and murderers with a brass
band. Bill Pritts and General Slegal Miller
have never been three miles from the place
of the murder since it was committed.
They went straight to Abe Fletcher's house
and spent the night with Pletchcr. They
spent Friday night with him at his shanty
and they would have spent Saturday night
there, too, hadnotabig brass band company
from Somerset and Rockwoott gone down
there and made noiso enough to let dead
men know they were coming. I am satisfied
thev will be at the sbantv to-nisht or at the
still back of Powell Miller'sand if we don't
bag them within 20 hours I'll be a badly
fooled man."

in the Wilds of Georgia.
CRIME OP A YOUNG JESSE JAMES.
lie Induces His Sweetheart to Hope With
Eim in the Night.
TBE ABDUCTOR MAT TET BE LYNCHED
rCMCIAL TXLEOBAM TO THE DISPATCH.l
Macon, Oa,, April 3. A curious story
from Ft. Gaines is printed here to-day. It
is of the abduction of Miss Laura Brooks,
who was spirited to a swamp and kept there
for weeks. The address of the outraged
father and victimized daughter is Sir. R. W.
Brooks and Miss Laura Brooks, Coleman,
'Ga. Miss Brooks had a sweetheart whose
name is Archie Bigbie. The girl's father
did not approve of their marriage, espe
cially as Bigbie had frequently expressed a
determination to go West and follow
in the footsteps of Jesse James.
The young lady felt that her father's
objections were too severe, but she refused
to marry her lover and go West, agreeing
only to link with him if he would settle
down in this country. To this he con
sented, and an elopement was arranged, he
promising to take her to Ft. Gaines, get
married, and return home.
The night arrived and Bigbie with it.
The girl bade goodby to the home, and
started, as she thought, to FL Gaines, to
wed. They left the puhlic highway and took
through a plantation road until the rush
ing waters of tbe Chattahoochee began to
dance before them. A carapfire glimmered
among the tangled wildwood, and a dirty,
dilapidated tent stood in the background.
Rude Awakening From a Dream.
Bigbie drove up and assisted his helpless
victim to alight, when they were met by
two brigandish outlaws, Bill Carlisle and
John Moore, and a "tough" female. Such
was BlgDie's Introduction of the girl to her
futute home and associates. She next
implored ber abductor to marry her,
but he coolly told her that such
a course was not necessary, and must be
abandoned. She was placed under the
closest espionage, and not allowed to absent
herself at any time from the secluded swamp
rendezvous. The following night they em
barked in their bateau and skulked away
down the river.
The grief-stricken father only succeeded
the past week in securing information re
garding their whereabouts, and in company
with Allen White, left in pursuit. Just be
low the Florida line they heard of the
fugitives and pushed ahead, hut be
fore they reached the camp Carlisle
intercepted them. He said the arrest of
any or all of the party was Impossible, espe
cially by only two. as they were heavily
armed, but he would agree to carry one of
them to camp in his boat, if he would go un
armed, and also endeavor to indnce Bigbie
to give up the girl. They accepted the
proposition and White embarked with him.
Bescaed From Her Abductors.
He found the camp on an isolated island,
in a dense Jungle and completely hidden.
The poor girl was rapturously glad to see
White, and began begging him at once
to rescue her from her wretched position.
Blgbe tuen appeared on the scene with his
Winchester, and had it not been for the in
terference of Carlisle and the prayers of the
girl, he would have, as he said,
"made catfish bait out of him."
White exercised all the power
of argument in attempting to get
possession of the girl, but to no purpose, a"nd
finally, after remaining all night at the
camp, came away with her under the pro
tection of Carlisle and his Winchester.
Miss Brooks tells a startling story of
cruelty, lawlessness and outlaw. She says
they obtain all their supplies by
stealing from residents along the river.
A reward of $500 in Columbus
hangs over Carlisle, and Mr. Brooks
has put out one of $100 for Bigbie. The sym
pathy of everyone goes out to the lady and
her family, ana if Bigbie is caught, to stand
in his shoes would be dear at any price.
KISSED AMD HADE TJP AGAIN.

All
Their Little Differences.

A LESSON TO WOMEN.
Mrs. Tan Buren Finds the Means of Caring
Woman's Ills. '
How shall women be relieved of the nervous con
dition that so commonly afflicts them?
Mrs. Hannah Van Buren. of Valatle, N..Y.,
has the answer, gained' through personal experi
ence. I am now 02 years old," says Mrs, Van Buren.
"For several .years different physicians have
treated me, 'but with so little benefit that I began
to despair of ever being cured.
'I suffered from nervous debility, neuralitla In
my back and shoulders so severe that I could not
lift my hands to my head, and terrible sleepless
ness. "On a friend's advice I began using Paine's cel
ery compound, and after taking nine bottles can go
to bed and sleep like a child. I am a well woman,
with no more aches and pains, and this Is all due to
mvuseof Palne's celery compound.
Henry Klrchner, the Postmaster, and Wilson
Miller, Justice orttie Peace at Valatle, are well ac
quainted with Mrs. Van Buren and vouch for tbe
truth of her statement.
Mat Value's celery compound did so much for
this woman Is an accepted fact: that It will do as
much lor every woman suffering from nervous
ness, sleeplessness and similar Ills Is a fact; that it
will give new life, new energy and new strength to
you will also be a fact If you use this valuable
compound.
