test was heard in the Office OF Charles F

testified that Messrs. Rankin, Of this city,
and Bonsall, OF Salem, Ohio, had brought
$500 to East Liverpool before the late

witness examined to day was A. @. Rankin,
who stated in substance as follows: He do.
nies the money was taken to Liverpool to be
used in the interest OF Wallace, but states
that II was money borrowed by the lodge
OF the Knights OF Labor at tAat place, and
was to have been used in the interest OF the

money came from parties who were op'
posed to Mckinley, but states that It was
Tor the assistance OF the locked.out potters.

MR SNYDER is making n peculiar cam
nign. From private letter just received
from tho Third District it seems that he Is
makinga sort of Know Nothing campaign
Our correspondent, writing under date oI
the 9lst inst, says:
Three days ago Snyder spoke at Le aisburg
in Greenbrier. He spent his time IN black
guarding the Republican Convention aud In
cracking up his own nomination. In fact
he gave two blue pills TO the dose, and ended
by saying, Brown was not only unfairly
nominated, but nominated by foreigner
and no. only by foreigner, but by one o.
that race which crucifed the Savior!"
The reference here is TO DR.. Mayer, o.
Charleston, agentleman oiintelligence and
standing, certainly in no way inferior te
Mr.. Snyder, physician in good practice
for twenty years a respected resident o.
the Kanawha Valley. The 1SrRLLlSEScEE
is able to say that the part which DR.. Mayer
took in the nomination OF Judge Browr
was entirely creditable 10 him as mar
having at heart the welfare OF tho Repub
lican party. 1t is not the power OF the
nomination which worries Mr.. Snyder ant
his friends-it is the strength Of the nom
iree and the vigor Of the canvass that dis
turbs them. But even this does not war
rant sold.biooded assault on a gentle
man, and an untrovoked attack On a clas'
otcitizens than whom there are no bettel
in this or any other community. 1t is tc
he said for those who are Of the Hebrew
race and faith, that they mind their OWE
business, and have too much Of 1t to de
generate into professional politicians.

At the Stamm House last evening an IS
TELuGEScgR man encountered Mayor Bot
Lyons, Of Pittsburgh, looking as big and
as hearty rs ever. He had just returned
from Marshall county, where he had been
to inspect the big gus well that was struck
last Saturday. He was accompanied by
Councilman Free, Of Pittsburgh, Gen. A,
L. Pearson, Oil Inspector Ramsey and O.
L. straub. These gentlemen are promi'
nent members Of the company that has
leased tract OF about 1000 acres, about
eight miles below this city, on
which they have drilled the
well that is now spouting 80 freely. The
well was started asan oil well, but whether
the strong volume OF gas will permit the
drillers TO continue their work until oil Is
reached 1t is hard to say. The Pittsburgh.
ers went down yesterday morning and will
return home this morning. Mr.. Ramsey,
who has had large experience with wells,
is OF the opinion that with little more
drilling the How Of gas will be such
as will excel any gas well in
the country. Mayor Lyons in conver-
sation said: "Well, you know the drilers
succeeded the latter part OF last week in
getting gas In such quantities as rendered
It necessary to convey 1t away from the
work. This was accomplished Saturday,
and the drill again started. Alter going

such that the men were driven away. The

upon the nominations by both parties. AS
to the probable nomination for Governor
on the Democratic side, Mr.. Thompson
says: ~ can't tell. There are three prom.

the convention when the time comes"
"Who are the candidates, and which Of
them do you think will decline to have his
name 60 before the convention"
"Wel, the three gentlemen whom ! refer
to are Judge Hoadly, General Durbin Ward
and Judge Geddes. ! think 1t more than
probable that the latter will not 80 before

advantages. General Ward is the favorite
OF the old mossbacked Democrats. Judge
Hoadly seems to be the choice OF the

Comfy, Georgia., and Other Places.
AMERicus, Ga, April 24.-The terrors Of
the tornado here can scarcely be exagger'
ated. At Atmidnight the wind came up from
the southwest and rain fell heavily. The
wind became gale and at four o'clock the
cyclone passed diagopally through Sumter
county about mile east Of here, demolish-
ing everything in its course and doing
frightiul damage to lie and property. Its
direction was from southwest to northeast.
The track was from 800 to 1000 yards wide.
The rain fell in solid masses and the thun.
der and lightning were appalling. Houses
were blown down, forests 'leveled
and all vestiges OF fences carried bodily
away. Cattle, sheep, hogs and horses were
killed by hundreds, farms, plantations,
farm houses. &C., in the track OF the tenn
pest are all destroyed, and the grain crops
ruined. In this county alone there were
twenty-five persons killed outright and
over two hundred injured. Many houses
and mills with their contents, animals and
children were blown many yards. The
Woodruff family, father, mother and
children were ali killed, and five persons
were killed in another house from which a
child escaped. How many other lives may
have been lost, Of which nothing has yet
been heard, is not known. The highways
are In places blocked with timber 80 as to
be entirely impossible. The loss to prop
erty in this immediate neighborhood, mar
row as was the track Of the storm, will not
be less than 100000.

WASHINGTON, April 2s.-The Indian
agent at Wilcox telegraphs to the Indian
Office that company Of rangers are now
near the San Carlos agency, evidently
intending to surprise the Indians. Their
suspicious movements are exciting the
Indians, and it is thought serious results
may ensue. The agent expresses the fear
that the Indians cannot be influenced to act
solely on the defensive, and should not be
put TO the test. Secretary Teller to-day
directed the agent at Wilcox to inform the
rangers now in the vicinity Of the reserva.

Prospective Changes iu the Paper Dis.

NRw YoRK, April ga dispatch from
Boston, pblished in the Tribune, relating 10
tho prospective changes in the Christian
Union, causes much interest in religious
circles here to-day. Tho announcement
was in measure premature, although the
changes, it is said authoritaliveIy to-day,
have in part already gone into effect. The
project OF starting new Congregational
paper took place last summer, among
prominent laymen OF that Church in the
East, who were dissatisfied with the Con-
greydtiOndliSt, the denominational organ, us
not taking stand abreast OF current reiigi-
Gus thought. Ex-Governor Fairbanks, Of
New Hampshire, offered to contribute with
other Boston capitalists, the funds necessary
for the new paper. The feeling was not
confined TO the laity, but number Of
clergyman were desirous Of seeing the now
project placed on firm footing. The new
paper was 10 have been stared last fall,
when the suggestion OF Incorporating the
idea with the CliriSiidn Union arose from
the effort 10 secure the Rev. DR.. LYMAN
Abbott, the editor ol the Christian Union,
as editor Of tho new journal. No advances
were made, it is said, by those representing
the Chri.tian Union, on the part OF that
paper. 1t is In perfectly satisfactory
condition financially, aud does not desire
any additional aid Of that kind; but by
this alliance 1t expects TO obtain wider
moral and religious scope, and q more
progressive Catholic spirit.
A change will probably be made in the
size aud typographical work Of the Chris.
tiaH Union in the fall. The editorial co.
operation Of well.known clergymen Of the
Congregational Church has been secured;
among them the Rev. 1r. Washington
GLADDEN., ef Columbus, O.; the Rev. DR..
Alexander Mckenzie, Drs. Herrck and
Duryea, Of Boston; and DR.. Newman
