    2 THE SCRANTON TKIBUNE-WEDNESDAY MORNING. OCTOBER 14, 1896.
GOLD RUSH LINE
. IS IMPREGNABLE
It Is Beiof Made Strong for the Flul
Assault.
THE ODDS ARE BIQ IN ITS FAVOR
Proposal to Desecrate the Sabbath.
Angela's Party Want to l'e It lor a
Political DemonstrationNothing
I Sacred to the PopocrntOfficial
Authority Is Necessary Before They
Caa Carry Out Their Plan.
ChlraRo, Oct. 13. Both the Republi
cans and Sound Money Democrats are
devoting all their energies to the
strengthening of their rush lines for the
final skirmish. During the past twenty-four
hours Mark Hanua has held
Individual consultations with nil his
chiefs of staff, as well as with a large
number of leading spellbinders who are
temporarily in the city, and he has
reached the conclusion that there Is not
a single weak place in the line through
which the I'opocrats can break. So
well have the states, in which the op
position Is making its last struggle,
been tilled with speakers thut there will
be a dozen Republicans to talk gold,
tariff and reciprocity for every free
silver speech made by Bryan. In Indi
ana, Michigan and some other states
the Popocrats are on a "still hunt,"
but agents of the Republican national
executive are following their every
move and checkmating their efforts.
Senator Quay's table given out last
night is indorsed In the main by Colonel
Payne, who has been dubbed the "sta
tistician of national headquarters."
Colonel Payne had about completed
the latest table of his own when that
of Senator Quay was read. The latter
places five more votes in 'the certain
column and eighteen more In the doubt
ful column than does Mr. Payne. The
letter's table gives 2fi5 electoral votes
certain for McKinley and forty-nine
doubtful, but probably Republican.
Other tabulators at headquarters give
McKinley 2!12, this estimate taking from
Hryan all the western coast states,
because of Information received by the
national committee, that the free silver
strength in these states has been great
ly overestimated.
Reports are coming In dally by wire
and mall to the effect that the red-hot
campaign that, at Mr. Hanna's direc
tion, has been carried on in Oregon.
Washington and California, has taken
those states out of the doubtful col
umn. DEMAND FOR SPEECHES.
The gold standard Democrats are
deluged with requests for speakers. A
deputation from Kansas Is here today
with the offer of a Bpeciul train for
any man of national reputation who
will make a flying tour of the state for
the next ten days. Senator Vilas was
asked last night to undertake the trip,
but tliis morning begged off, and efforts
are now being made to secure Senator
Lindsay, of Kentucky. Palmer and
Huckner are at Cincinnati this morn
ing, and will go through Tennessee and
Alabama to New Orleans, returning
here on Monday for twelve days on the
stump In this state, Wisconsin, Minne
sota and Iowa. Richard W. Knott, of
Kentucky, took the stump Inst night at
Litchfield, and Comptroller Eckels
makes the first of ten speeches at his
home In Ottawa on Friday. And so
the record might be multiplied at
length. There is no question but that
the National Democrats have in the
closing days of the campaign, when
hard work Is more urgently needed
.than ever, proven themselves a much
more formidable auxiliary of the Re
publican army that is battling for
sound money and national honor than
had been anticipated by their friends
or looked for by their foes.
A CHARACTERISTIC ACT.
There is a good deal of unfavorable
comment today over the semi-ollicinl
announcement that the Popocrat sil
ver campaign Is to wind up on the
Sunday before election with a great
street parade. Intended as an offset to
the Chicago Day demonstration. Chi
cago makes no pretension to a New
England Sablvath, but, nevertheless,
political parades have so far found no
place In Its style of observing the first
day of the week. Some people are in
clined to the opinion that nothing else
but a desecration of the Sabbath might
be expected from a party that stands
for everything opposed to law ond or
der, and that the selection of a Sunday
for Its closlnir effort Is In line with it's
whok- campaign. It requires, however,
a municipal permit In order to march
through the streets either Sundays or
week days, and the proposed attack on
the sanctity of the Holy day may en
counter some obstacles at the city hall.
SNOW FALLINQ IN THE FAR WEST.
Report to the Railroad Show Cold
Weather in tho Black Hills.
Omaha, Neb., Oct. 13. Reports to the
railroads on the weather today show
that it Is cold and that In some parts
of the west. there Is snow. The llur
llngton report tells of rain at every sta
tion on the system west of the Missouri

Mack Hills and on the Wyoming and
Montana divisions. There are two

The coldest weather on the Burling
ton is at Clalrmont, where the ther
mometer registered 10 degrees above,
and the warmest at Nemaha, where it
shows 48 above. The average is 46 de
grees. ILLINOIS NOT NEEDED.

adjourned Senator Butler Informed a
reporter that the business of the meet
ing had been confined to a discussion
of fusion plans in Kansas and Colorado
which he hoped to bring to a successful
end before night. Senator Rutler was
enthusiastic over the outlook. He said
Illinois is not needed for Hryan, as he
was assured of Indiana, Iowa, the solid
south and west. Maryland, Delaware
and West Virginia, he declared, are
certain, and Kentucky is like Texas.
As regards Watson, Senator Butler
said that his name had not been men
tioned. No effort will be mnde to take
him off the ticket, nor has any such
attempt been thought of. Not one word
will be said and not a single step will
be taken which would in any way tend
to embarrass the candidacy of Bryan.

MEXICO THE IDEAL
SILVER COUNTRY
But Her Conditions Are Different from
Those of the United States.
THE OPINION OF GOVERNOR CORAL
Thinks That a Silver Basis of Cur
rency Would Be Disastrous in This
Counter, Where Laboring Classes
Are Intelligent and Educated.
New Tork, Oct.. 13. Governor Ray
mon Coral, of the state of Sonora, Re
public of Mexico, accompanied by Sec
retary of State Ortes, Is staying at the
Waldorf hotel. Governor Coral ppoKe
toduy freely on the free silver ques
tion. "The conditions obtaining In my
country," said he, "on a silver basis
nnd those in the United States on a
gold basis are so radically and essen
tially different that it is impossible to
make a comparison between them.
Kach country must be considered by
itself.
The results In the I'nited States if
the Chicago platform should be adopt
ed would be disastrous.
"The United States worklngmen are
Intelligent and would demand that tholr
employers Increase their wages to cor
respond with Increase In other prices.
They would demnnd the same purchas
ing power in their wages, but how
would it be possible to yield to that
demand. There must be suffering and
constant strife.
"For myself I do not believe that If
Hryan Is elected his party will dare to
pass the free coinage law proposed. It
would not only be disastrous fts I have
said, but would precipitate revolution I
fear.
"It Is nonsense to say .that the Unit
ed States Is able to establish and main
tain a financial policy of that char
acter proposed Independent of rest of
the world. Its coin In that case must
be unstable and lluctuatlng in value.
So far as business affairs at homo are
concerned, there would be endless con
tention, lcijal troubles and complica
tions of disturbing and unsettling ef
fect. Government cannot compel the
world or the individual to accept any
thing at a greater value than It bears.
'There aru two things no govern
ment can do. One Is to create an ar
tiliclal value and exact It. The other
Is to isolate Itself from the rest of the
world and achieve a permanent pros
perity." IRRIGATION FAIR READY TO OPEN.
Elaborate Preparations for the Novel
Show at North Platte.
North Platte, Neb., Oct. 13. The first
irrigation fair in the history of the
world will be formally opened Monday
nt North Platte. Extraordinary prep
arations have been made. Fields of al
falfa, corn and all kinds of farm pro
ducts are growing on the grounds, all
under irrigation ditches.
In a park in one part of the grounds
can be seen grazing twenty head of
buffalo, elk, deer and other animals
of the plains. On another side can be
seen a beautiful lake, with pleasure
boats of all kinds gliding gracefully
over Its surface. This lake Is fed by
one of the largest Irrigation ditches In
the world, Its length being forty miles,
breadth 100 feet.
The programme for tomorrow is most
elaborate.
WILL BURN CORN INSTEAD OF COAL
runners in South Dakota Find It a
Cheap Fuel.
Chamberlain, f. D.'. Oct. 13. The sug
gestion that corn be burned as a sub
stitute for hard conl In the state this
winter Is meeting with favor In various
sections. Hard coal Is now being re
tailed at from $10 to $11 per ton In the
towns east of the Missouri river, and
west of the river. In the towns of the
Black Hills and surrounding territory,
it costs considerably more.
Experts estimnte that two tons of
corn will go as far and furnish as much
heat as one ton of hard conl. Besides
being chenper It would keep thousands
of dollars within the state that Would
otherwise go to the coal trust.

ing, turns out to have been a victim
of hypnotism.
Two weeks ago a hypnotist visited
this city and Osborne was one of his
most constant attendants. He consent
ed to be placed under the spell, and
then took the notion that he was a
dog and that some one had taken his
soul. The Idea seems never to have
got out of his mind, and he now Im
agines that it holds his soul.
While under the spell he went to a
young woman here and urged her to
marry him. This she consented to do,
not knowing of his lunacy. His de
mentia began to grow worse from then
on, and a writ of lunacy was sworn out
against him, but too lute to avert tne
tragedy that followed.
(Ireat excitement has grown out of
the Incident because of Its connection
with the hypnotic seances. Hundreds
of the best people of Atlanta attended
these meetings and were placed under
the spell. Indeed, it became a society
fad. and It has developed in such a
deplorable way that there are many
others nervously examining themselves
to see If there is anything wrong.
