Expresses Opinions Regarding the Fish

BIRAINGHAM, Eng, Nov. 5.
Mr.. Gladstone arrived here today. A
great crowd awaited him and numerous dep
utations presented him with addresses.
In q speech he said the addresses fully
recognized the fact that the Irish question
was really the English, Scotch and Welch
question and that until the question was set
tied the country could know neither solid
peace nor effectual progress.
He said that all efforts to solve the fishery
question with the United States, had been
egregious failures. the liberals did not wish

Freak


MANCHESTER, Y. TT. Nov. 5.
Recent Developments regarding the death
of young Reimann. who was found in shed
in Wes; Manchester, yesterday covered with
blood and with bullet hole near his left eve,
have disclosed that he met his death at the
hands of a l5-year old lad named Frank
Blown, who was with him at the time, in
company with three other boys.
The other boys say that they we're all in
the shed together when Brown pulled out
seif-cocking revolver, and saying "How's
that!" pulled the trigger, the bullet striking
hermann full in the eye. He fell, covered
with blood, and the boys, terrified, fled TO
the wood, where Bro vn was left in faint
by them and has not been seen since

New YORK, Nov. S.
This is the evening before the greatest
election day that the country has ever wit
messed. People realize it and the excite
ment has been SO intense all day long that
with the most, business is no longer thought
Of. The largest and perhaps the fairest bal
lot that New York ever gave will be cast to-
morrow. Assurance of pleasant day gives
increased confidence to the republicans as
that means that the country vote will be out
in full. Though every means have been
tried by the democratic committee to avoid
. knitting or trading" among the city can
didates, yet the local fights are causing them
no end of uueasiness. Prominent independ-
ents acknowledge that the prospect is decid-
edly favorable 10 republican success.
Police Instructed.
The police have ready for use more than
500 warrants for persons who illegally reg
istered. These men will be arrested if they
attempt TO vote Today all the police cap
tains were summoned to police headquarters
and given special instructions for tomorrow
by Supt. Murray.
Theological Students Indicted.
Forty students of the Union Theological
SEMINARY, VINO nad registered as cltlZens,

but will not be arrested unless they offer to
vote In former years students from abroad
were sometimes permitted to VOTE but under
the present Interpretation of the law they
will not be regarded as citizens.
The Battles Prelude.
Gen. Barnum has gone to his home in
Connecticut to vote. Matthew Quay will
not go home to vote. Such turbulent crowds
gathered in front of the republican and dem
ocratic State headquarters tonight at about
nine o'clock, shouting wildly for Cleveland |
and Harrison at different and same times, |
and berating each other, that sixty officers |
were ordered out and the streets cleared to
prevent riot.

The Democrats Fail to Secure Another
Burchard

New YORK, Nov. ).
Dispatches from West Virginia state that
the democrats made an attempt to convert
Rev. John Hall into a Burchard for the re-
publican party. They sent telegram to that
noted divine, requesting him in his sermon
yesterday to take strong grounds against
Cleveland, giving as a reason therefor his
spurious devotion to the Catholic hierarchy.
The despatch did not reach DIR. Hall, but it
was certainly prepared by democratic knaves.

Chairman Brice heard from the demo-

the effect that unless they were sustained
with more help they would not be able to

that the corruption fund has not held out.
During Saturday night and Sunday the large
sums of money sent into that State by the
democrats were put into the hands of the
local agents to use in the several districts.
The republican method of meeting this at
