Cleveland, .Mingo Junction aud

Canton, O.. Oct. 27.
were late In reaching Canton today.
The first to arrive was a large one from
the mountain counties of West Vir
ginia nnd Maryland on the Baltimore
and Ohio railroad. There were Ci'U
farmers in the delegation and a num-
, ber of businrss and professional men.
A deippntion of about 7o ladies from
Martin's Ferry arrived with the To.-Jt
Virginia and Maryland people. Major
Mckinley did not make a speech to the
delegation for the reason that It came
In with another delegation and did not
nsk for a separate address. In ad
dressing the West Virginia nnd Mary
land delegations Major McKlnley said
in substance:
"I am glad to be assured by your
spokesman that both stales can be
counted this year in the Republican
column and if on the evening of the
third of November the result should be
dliTerent then I shall not regard him
as a good prophet. The stale of West
Virginia was Republican two years
ago, the state of Maryland was Repub
lican a year ago, and 1 know of no rea
son, why you should alter your
respective verdicts then rendered
In favor of the Republican principles.
(Cries of "no, no.")
"The highest destiny of man Is the
aspiration of the human family where
ever located. We divide ourselves Into
great, governmental systems. The pro
jectors of each believing that their sys
tm will best subserve In the countries
and best secure the destiny for their
people. We think we have the best
system under the sun. It Is certainly
the freest nnd up to this hour, hus been
a nation not of dishonor, bin of honor,
and 1 believe the people of this country
north and south and east and west will
nmlntutn the unsullied honor of our
government, and the unquestioned In
tegrity of our currency forever and
evermore. (Applause.)
CONFIDENCE NECESSARY.
"What we want In this country I an
opportunity to develop it. Your two
states are only walling for the mugic
touch of confidence to unfold the
wealth of treasures whlfth the Almighty
has put in your hills. You were JustJ
beginning prior to 189a to enjoy the lnr
gest development you had ever en
joyed. Your coal and your Iron, your
splendid industries scattered all oyer
two states, were enjoying the very
highest prosperity that have been en
Joyed before. Suddenly confidence is
shaken, business is paralyzed, men
have no faith in the future; men don't
know what It Is to await them In their
business, capitalists sit with their
money hoarded in strong' boxes, anil
while capital is hoarded In the rtrong
bo:;es. labor is idle on the streets. All
because there is no confidence, ail be
cause the people In their majestic
power did what they have a right to do
always they changed from a policy
under which we had been operating for
more than one half of the life of the
government and entered upon a new
policy under which whenever it pre
vailed in this country, we had had
business depression and from that hour
to tills the country has suffered. Every
interest has suffered: every working
man has suffered in his Income and his
wages nnd the government itself has
suffered in Its revenues and has been
forced to go out Into the open markets
and borrow money to pay Its every
day expenses. Now. I take it no matter
what your politics have been In the
past you do not want to pursue any
such debt creating policy. You don't
want to pursue a policy that Impov
erishes the people nnd impoverishes
the public treasury. What we want to
do Is to get that confidence back nnd
the only way to get It back is to defeat
the party that destroyed it and put
Into power that party which for more
than one-third of a century gave this
country the highest prosperity and
greatest development it ever attained."
(Applause.)
CLEVELAND VISITORS.
The next delegation came from
Cleveland and was composed of about
a thousand employes in the aggregate
of the Cpson Nut company, the Lamp
son company and the Peck. Stow &
Wilcox company. W. F. McKennuie
was spokesman and he made a ringing
address. The delegation was a hilar- I
lous and uncommonly, enthusiastic one.
Major McKinley's appearance was
greeted with thunders of applause and
cheers continued for several minutes.
The spokesman said a large number of
the men in the delegation voted for
free trade four years ago and they had
been sorry for it ever since and pro
posed to reverse the distress they
helped to render then. Major McKlnl
ley took up the line of thought and dis
cussed the tariff for several minutes.
Pressing closely behind the Cleve
land delegations were 500 workingmen
from the Junction Iron and Steel works
of Mingo Junction, and Captain W. J.
Vrquhart introduced them in a few
words to Major McKlnley who ad
dressed them from the stand In front
of his lawn.
A special train of handsome Wagner
sleeping and dining cars brought a fine
del"gntion from Boston and other New
England cities at 2 p. m. today. The
excursion was under the auspices of
the Boston Herald. -The members of
the New England Sound Money league
who composed the delegations were
met at the station by the Canton
mounted troop and the widely known
Grand Army band and a company of
prominent citizens, who escorted them
to Major McKinley's residence. The
spokesman for the New England visit
ors was Hon. Frank W. Rollins, who
addressed Major McKlnley with great
earnestness and eloquence. He was
frequently applauded. Cheer after
cheer greeted Major McKlnley when he
stepped forward to address his visit
ors. NEW ENGLAND'S GIFTS.
The New England delegation brought
several gifts to Major McKlnley R. A.
Motile, of New Bedford, presented him
with a large cut glass punch bowl and
some handsomely polished whales'

Salem Cogswell Republican club, with
a golden witch spoon, and the women
of Massachusetts, through Mrs. Emma

The New Jersey Statesman Addresses
Large Audiences on the Issues
ol the Day.
Jersey City. N. J.. Oct. 27. Oft k la nd
rink was crow tied tonight to heur Utir
ret A. iiobart speak. He was received
with cheers and wild enthusiasm.
When this had subsided he spoke as
follows:
"liHilles and gentlemen: 1 am glad
to be with you In your home. 1 think
I am welcome here. I do not wish to
recall to vour minds unpleasant mem
ories, bill I rejoice with you and con
gratulate you that w hen the voles are
counted in Jersey City next Tuesday
we will get an honest count. We do not
light in this buttle alone; we have with
us honest men who you and I respect
us Demoera'.s, men who ure gooil citi
zens because they favor a Supreme
court constituted as it now Is. They
nre with iim be ause thev nre not in
favor of repudiation or confiscation and
because they are liberty-loving, Ood
fearing citizens. When the campaign
began the national committee divided
the labor. The hard work
was given to one, and the
pl"nsant part, the speaking, to delega
tions from, all over the country, was
allotted to my associate, William Mc
IKnley. (Cheers.) Since then he has
been speaking eveiy day, and his
speeches have been an inspiration to
sound money men all over the country.
They have shown that he Is capable
and he Is magnificently equipped to oc
cupy the first place in the gift of the
people the presidency of the United
States. I thank you, men of Jersey
City, for all you are doing and will do
for the Republican cause."
Governor Griggs also spoke briefly.
He paid a compliment to President
Cleveland. "We Republicans." said he,
"are supporting a Democratic federal
government because It stands for sound
money, while some Democrats who four
years ago shouted and voted for Mr.
Cleveland have now joined the ranks
of disorder and revolution. With the
Republicans today stand the honesty
and the respectability of Democracy."
This was greeted with tumultuous ap
plause. Governor Griggs and Mr. Ho
bart afterward reviewed the Republi
can parade.

HANNA APPEALS
TO THE VOTERS
They Are Asked to Display the Flag on
' Election Day.
VOTE WITH CONSCIENTIOUS CARE
Special Report Received on Esli
mated Majorities for JHcKinley.
Mr. llauua is Not Alarmed at the
Noise of the IJrvnn Campaigners.
Chicago. Oct. 27. On behalf of the
Republican national committee Chair
man Hnnna sent today his appeal, ad
dressed to "voters." After Immediate
ly pressing upon their minds the fact
that the destiny of the nation is In their
hands he advises them to cainilv and
carefully think before they vote in the
seclusion of their booths, with their
conscience as their only guide. He
urges them to look upon the flag as
they bo to the polls and reflect on the
cost of lis preservation. They are re
minded of the call to display the lias
next Saturday and are asked to let
national colors remain until after the
election as an Inspiration to voters and
a universal expression of patriot sm,
Finally, iatriotic -voters are asked to
secure' for these great principles good
money, good govcrnmert and protec
tion to your home and your tlag nt
least one other vote by Individual ef
fort and the women of the country are
especially appealed to for effective
work in this direction.
Special report was received by Mr.
Hanna from Iowa, giving the expected
majority there for McKlnley at 50,000;
from Minnesota, claiming the state by
.10.000 to 40.000, from Michigan, placing
the majority there at 30.UU0 and from
Kentucky, placing that state In the Mc
Klnley column by 15,000 to 25.000. The
Tennessee state committee also in
formed the national chairman that it
would go Republican.
The l:rynn demonstration under the
walls of the headquarters building did
not have any perceptible effect on the
spirit of the campaign chief or his su
bordinates. All were us confident as
ever and expressed a general express
ion of opinion thut Mr. Bryan had
come to Chicago too lute to make any
serious inroads in the Republican
ranks.
Mr. Hanna said: "ThlB Hryan noise
does not send any cold shivers chujj
ins up and down my spinal column.
Nearly all the voters got their minds
made up on the main issue, so thnt any
changes which Mr. Hryan may effect
while here will not show materially In
the result."

"PROCLAMATION"
Chicago, Oct. 27. The Republican National
Committee today gave out the following :
CHICAGO, 111., Oct. 26.
To the Workingmen of the United States:
To refute a false statement, as we sincerely believe It to be, and
correct an Impression that our friends and acquaintances may have
formed concerning our signatures to a campaign document going the
rounds of the press and circu'ated broadcast on the streets, entitled
"Proclamation," In which we ere made to appear that we are In favor
of free silver at any ratio and substantially the establishment of two
standards of money, contradictory as the terms may be, we wish to
be recorded by all who are interested In our position, as being em
phatically and unequivocally against any such measures, but are for
the sound money plank promulgated by the Republican convention at
'St. Louis.
Our signatures were obtained nearly three years ago to a docu
ment pretending to be a "memorial" to congress then in session, which
in our belief and memory was a much milder paier than is the "proc
lamation" referred to. And no matter what our opinions may have
been on the money question at the time of our signing- the memorial,
nearly three years ago, we have learned enough since on the subject to
warrant us In denouncing the attempt at free coinage of silver at 16 to L
tfiievlng It to be directly against the interests of labor and also be
lieving that under a condition of free coinage this country wll be sub
jected to one of the most frightful panics that -ny country In this
world has ever seen. Our belief in this statement is strengthened by
an admission made by William J. Bryan, candidate for president, In
a recent speech In the northwest, wherein he is reported to have said
that he thought that a free silver condition would bring for the present,
stagnation and panic, but from which, in four years, we would recover.
We do not believe that this country can stand an additional four
years of misery and distress, and are therefore opposed to the senti
ments contained in the aforesaid "proclamation,"
Very respectfully,
P. M. ARTHUR,
Grand Chief, Brotherhood Locomotive Engineers.
E. P. SARGENT,
Grand Master, Brotherhood of Locomotive Firemen.
F. W. ARNOLD,
Grand Secretary and Treasurer, Brotherhood of Locomotive Firemen.
INDIAN AGENCY HELD UP.
Bundits Loot the tine and Fox
Agency, Near Gnthrie, Okln.
Guthrie, Okla., Oct. 27. The Sac and
Fox Indian agency, sixty miles south
east of here, .was held up and looted
yesterday by the same gang of bandits
who looted the town of Carney lust
week. Sac and Fox is only thirty-six
miles from Carney.
There were four masked robbers,
moulfted and armed. They first rode to
the office of Agent Thomas, presum
ably to demand the money to be paid
as annuity to Sac and Fox Indians
next week. Agent Thomas had 46,000
in greenbacks ready to pay the In
dians. Thomas was not in his office.
The robbers then went to the store
of Mrs. Fannie Wrhistler, covered the
Inmates and took $486 and valuable
papers from the safe. They then held
up J. W Moffitt's place and got Jfill
and a gold watch. Chief Keokuk's
place was robbed of $80 and $3,000
worth of notes.
The boldness of the robbers fright
ened the traders and people so badly
that they were unable to resist. After
robbing Keokuk' s pluce the bandits
rushed through the grounds of the
Government Indian school, tiring their
guns. Two of the robbers were recog
nized as being In the Carney hold
up. m

SCHEME EXPOSED.
MAY MEAN A Bid MINING DEAL.
Two Prominent English Engineers
en Route to Sun Francisco.
San Francisco, Oct. 27. Two promi
nent mining engineers from London are
now on their way to this city. One of
them Is Louis Janin, jr., son of Louis
Janln, of this city, and formerly an
editor of the Mining and Engineering
Journal of New York. Mr. Janin was
at one time a mining engineer here. He
is now In tha employ of a London syn
dicate. His stay here will be short, as
he is going to Australia to examine
some properties that the London syn
dicate is thinking of purchasing.
Hamilton Smith, of the London Ex
ploration company, the largest mining
syndicate in the world, is the other
mining expert coming here. It was on
Mr. Smith's report that the company in
question recently bought the famous
