Exuberant NEr. Foraker.

JAMESTOWN, n. Y, Oct. 21.-Judge J.
B. Foraker, governor-elect of Ohio, spoke
for over two hours in Aliens opera house
this afternoon to an audience filling every
part of the auditorium and stage. He con-
traSted the causes which led to the going
out of power of the Democratic party
twenty-five years ago and the Republican
party year ago. He said that the achieve
ments of the Republican party met with
universal appreciation now, and asserted
that had there been free ballot and an
honest count in the South it would still be
in power. He defended the ''bloody shirt"
policy. he said this policy did not operate
to revive memories Of the war, but it was
necessitated by occurrences since the con-
fiict, and he contrasted it with Fitzhugh
Lees campaign in Virginia. ''The Demo-
Gratis" he continued, promised to look
over the books. count the money and restore
prosperity. The former two promises they
had performed, but the latter was unre-
deemed. The country was looking to Presi-
dent Cleveland for his policy. If he pro-
nOunced for protection the third promise
would be performed. but free trade would
intensity the present depressed condition of
business. The governor-elect told several
stories, and his speech was often interrupted
by applause. He LETT here for Rochester at
4 o'clock.

Efficiency ITS own Reward.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 21.-The terms of
service of Commodore J. G.. Walker as
chief of the bureau of navigation and Com
modore Montgomery Heard, chief of the
bureau of ordnance in the navy department
will expire tomorrow. Both officers will,
however, be reappointed for another term
of tour years. Secretary Whitney is in
favor of rotation among naval officers,
but these cases are notable eXcep-
tions to that rule on account of
excellent service rendered by them and en-
tire masters of the duties of their respective
bureaus. Commodore Walker is next to
the secretary in the management of the af-
fairs of the department.. He has charge of
the detail of all officers. and his services
could not well be dispensed with at present
Commodore Hicards' knowledge of ordnance
matters is considered invaluable in connec-
ton with the matter of arming the prof.
ected new ships for the navy.

Attempted Assass;u..so,

COPENHAGEN, Oct 21.-A desperate at
tempt was made at 5 o'clock this afternoon
to assassinate Premier Estrupp, by youth
named Rasmussen, compositor. Rasmus-
sen fired two shots from revolver
at Premier Estrupp. When in
the act of firing third shot, the would-be
assassin was seized by a couple of detec-
tives, number of whom have constantly
been in attendance on the premier
Tor some time past, owing to
the extreme hatred of the populace,
towards him and the other members of the
cabinet. Rasmussen was hurriedly taken
to the prison. the officials fearing an attempt
at rescue would be made. The first shot
struck button on Herr Estrupp's coat and
glanced off. The second shot went wide
OF the mark. Rasmussen declares that his
motives were political, as Herr Estrupp's
conduct in the present political CONTROVERSY

Whipped by a Woman.

MANSFIELD, O., Oct. 21.-Last night
Mrs. Gates, wife of John Gates sheriff of
this county, armed herself with a rawhide
and with her brother started in pursuit of
Robert Richie, young man who was
formerly deputy sheriff. Meeting the OBJ
ject of her search Mrs. Gates brother drew
a revolver ordered him to stand still until
his sister concluded chastisement.
When she had exhausted her
self in the use of the rawhide
Mrs. Gates permitted Ritchie to depart.
The cause of the trouble was slanderous re-
marks made by Ritchie. Ritchie
was candidate for sheriff at the
Democratic convention last spring
and was defeated by only a
small majority. Gates has served two
terms as sheriff and retires this fall. The
affair creates sensation on account of the

Minister Curry Asserts Himself.

WASHINGTON, Oct 21.-Rev. DR.. Curry,
the newly-appointed minister to Spain,
spent the day at the state department,
where he had a conversation with the Sec
retary and assistant secretaries of state,
with his predecessor, Gen. Foster, and with
Mr.. Williams, United States consul general
to Cuba. To reporter of the Associated
Press DR.. Curry said he expected to leave
for his post on the 18th of November.

you were once in command at Andersonville
and were in part responsible for the cruel
ties practiced toward federal prisoners. Il

tinued tie reporter, question the pro-
priety of sending a Baptist clergyman

the government has nothing to do. I
am little surprised at the criticism
too. The hardest struggle I ever had
when was in political life, was as candidate
for the legislature during the Know-nothing
excitement. The issues, you remember,
were two; one a proposition to deny the for
eigners the privilege of naturalization after
six years Of residence, and the other propo-
sition to disqualify ROmansts from holding
Office. My county was political one, and as
in the state, my success was very gratifying.
Were you an anti-Know-nothing.
Yes, was the champion, cannot say of
the Catholics, but of the principle of Ameri-
canisn, which is embodied in the constitution
of equal rights and privileges for all.
Of course. you anticipate no objection from
the Spaniards to your reception.

Again, MIR. Washburn's card was very graft
flying, coming from a Republican leader, him
self having been years in the foreign mission.
The expressions of approval from the colored
people of the South have been exceedingly
hearty and pleasing.

with Spain?

explosion. When the gas was ignited all
the men in the slope were violently thrown

The waIkup Case.

EMPoRIA, Kan. Oct. 21.-The Walkup
trial was resumed this morning with
crowded court room. A good deal of ap-
parently unimportant testimony was taken.
among it that of Mr.. McElvoy neighbor.
who had conversation with Mrs. Walkup
after the death of the latter'S husband, in
which she expressed surprise that anybody
could believe the reports in circulation
about her, and said child could have had
more sense than to have bought poison as
openly as she did, if it was to be
used to poison anybody Mrs. Snm-
mers testified to Mrs Walkup having
told witness before Walkup's death she
dreamed of seeing Lizzie Walkup dressed
in Grape and singing ''Rock of Ages" while
playing the piano. Three druggists testi-
fed having sold arsenic to Mrs Walkup
and in one case 1our ounces. She said she
wanted it as cosmetic and signed the person
record book. At the afternoon session ev-
idence was chiefly to the discharge of a re-
volver in the hands of Mr. Walkup in his
room during his Illness Mr.. Walllup told
Mr.. Severy the same day that the shooting
was accidental but Mrs. Walkup

ce1se some I'm pOrtamf Letters.
PHILADELPHIA, Pa, Oct. 21.-The an
nual convention of the National Wholesale
Drug association was in session here to-
day. The committee ON membership re-
ported among other things thai they found
general desire among the trade that the
association shall take active efforts to Sc
cure the removal Of tax on spirits as used
in pharmacy and the arts; also to secure
the repeal of the special license imposed
upon retail and wholesale druggists for the
sale of spirits, which reduces their business
to par with that of the liquor dealers.
The report was accepted. The nominating
committee presented the following report,
which was adopted:
For president, M. N. Kline of Philadelphia.
Vice presidents, A. FL. Jones, Philadelphia;
James G. Richardson. st. Louis; J. S. Bird,
Boston; Charles HI. Pettette, Louisville; E. II.

Charles Osgood, Norwich, Conn: Nv .Rinker,
Atlanta, Ca; ]. S. Perrard. Detroit.
After the adoption of the report W. n.
Reaser of New York presented report re-
ferring to the evils which have crept
into the drug trade through over-production
and competition, and to responsibilities of
the commercial traveller. The committee
thought that. while commercial travelling
could not be abolished, the conditions to
lead to such disappointing and profitless re-
suits could be modified. At the afternoon
session letters from President Cleveland,
Secretary Manning and Congressman
Samuel j. Randall, acknowledging the re-
ceipt of communication regarding the
duty On alcohol, were read. The president
wrote that the matter would receive his
earliest attention. The secretary prom
ises to lay the matter before the proper con-
gressional committees, and Mr.. Randall
suggests visit of committee to Washing
ton be made for the purpose of agitating
the question at the proper time.

deciding vote, and of course this will make
the senate Democratic beyond question
To get these three votes changed looks
comparatively easy. Senator Harrison of
Indiana is almost sure to be succeeded by
the election of a Democratic senator
in New York to succeed Senator
Miller, Republican. and there is
a probability of the election of Democrat
in New Jersey to succeed Senator Sewell.
With Democratic successor in Sherman'S
seat and Democrats pretty sure to come
from Indiana and New jersey, the Demo-
crats only need one more change-that in
Virginia, for inStance-to make the senate
tie. So there is great interest in the Vir-
ginia fight, and even the hot-headed,
straight-out Republicans, who have been
inclined to fight Malone all along,
are getting down to work
for him rather than to see their party
beaten not only in Virginia but in the ma
tlonal senate as well. Gov. Cameron has
been induced to give up his quarrel with
Wise and Malone. He has a letter from
Wise with a satisfactory denial that Wise
was responsible for the late assaults on the
government, dated from Petersburg, the
home of Senator Malone. The Republi
cans are straining every nerve to capture
Virginia and re-elect Malone. They are
putting aside all family quarrelS in the state
and are pouring in money from outside.
Even the leading Democrats, while not adj
mitting the probability of Republican
victory, are crying for more work and
money,

WASHINGTON, Oct. 21.-There is a sud-

ginia political campaign. 1t has been an
active one all the way through. but there
seems to be renewed activity just now. 1t
is evident that the uncertainty attending
the result of the Ohio election has set the
Republicans to work to certainly carry Vir-
ginia. The party leaders have sent some
OF their best men to the representatives of
the warning factions among the Republicans
OF the Old Dominion, and have said to them
that they must for the present lay aside
their quarrels and set to work to
carry the state. The Republicans see
that they will need Virginia senator

Ohio is Democratic sure enough as to
The legislature. 1t looks very much as
though the senate might be turned over to

Of four or five senators to throw it over. If
the Ohio senator changes from Republican
to Democratic, there will only be three more
changes needed to make the senate a tie
