which was granted. He writes good
hand, and signed this petition asking
for severance in bold, clear hand.
The sympathy of the audience was
strongly marked and every point
made in Welsh's favor was so welcome
TO them that at times IL was difficult
to suppress the applause. The main
6ght WAS over the admission Of the
dying declaration Of Little, which was
very damaging to the theory Of the
defense put forth by WeIsh's attor-
peys. The lawyers fought it over for
several hours, and the contest ended
In Welsh's attorneys succeeding in
having the most Objectionable part
stricken out. The dying statement
clearly points to the Bricker girl as an
accessory, as Little states that be'ore
he was shot the girl cried "Sboot him,
Tommy" Little also swore to the
coroner, who took his ststement, that
he made no attack upon Welsh, or any
threats against him, and that the
shooting was wholly unprovoked.
The defense opened with strong
speech by Joshua Sharp, brother OF
Welch's employer and a leading young
attorney here. He claimed that the
defense would show sufficient provo
cation and knowledge Of threats made
by Little toward Welsh as to justify
the shooting and establish clear case
of self.defense. Ten or fifteen wit
nesses then testified to the condition
of Little on the day Of the shooting
that he was drunk and violent, and
had uttered threats that Welsh would
be sorry for taking his girl away from
him. Two of them swore that he said
he would "do Welsh up" and take his
big revolver away from him. Further
testimony wa, offered to show that
had knowledge of Littls's
threats aud had been warned tu be on
his guard.
The trial lssted three days and the
girl testified In behalf of Welsh IN
such o satisfactory manner that the
jury was out but two hours and then
returned verdict Of justiiable homi-
eide. Welsh after receiving the con,
gratulations Of his friends and attor.

The Democrats May Yet Control the Lower

WASHINGTON, November II The 20
litcal complexion of the next House de-
pends upon the result in five Congressional
districts. Congressman BeIiah Wilkins,
Of the Democratic committee; General
Clark, ths Clerk of the House, and Set
geant-at-Arms Leedom to-day made an
accurate table from the latest returns and
it shows that the chances are atOut even
between the two parties. There will be
325 members iu the next House of Repre-
sentatives, and the verified returrs show
that 160 Democrats aud $50 Republicans S
Rave certainly been elected, with five dis
tricts in doubt.
These five districts are the Fifth Cali
forpiS, Clurie's; First California, Tnomp'
sons; Second Louisiana, Elliott's; Tenth
Michigan, Fishers, ond First West Vir-
ginia, Pendleton's. Either party must get
three out of the five in order to organize
the next House. In the Second Louisiana
which is classed as doubtful in the above
estin1ate, the probabilities favor the Re
publicans. In the others the chances are
practically even.

SOMETHING ROTTEN.
REMARKABLE INCREASE IN KANAWHA
C0UNTY'S VOTE.
Three Thousand More Ballots Cast Than Two
Years AgO-Whsrs Did They All Come From?
"A Startling Expose Of the Vote at
Some Precincts.
KdRGlGhG Gd=stts.

hunCloAG Tl~SUe.
There is something wrong in the vote of
Kanawha county-something that has an
appearance which every true man, Rspub.
liean or Democrat, diSlikes TO see even the
shadow CT. We do not understand this
largely increased vote over the unusually
large vote of 1896, and over the careful
canva.sss which both parties made prior to
the election. The full vote Of Karawha
county, as shown by the present returns,
is nearly 9,OOO-s vote which, if hO1est,
betokens 3 population Of Ii, 900 people in
this county. Two ycMs ago the total vote
polled was G, ,43O. We cannot and do not
believe that there has been legitimate in
crease of nearly 5000 in the vote Of this
county in that period.
In 1886 the vote of Charleston District
wss /, 1,625, now it appears to be =, 148, an in
crease Of 523, showing gain in population
iu two years Of atout $500, no less.
TIE total vote Folled in Elk District
to years ago was 5Sl. TGis
year it appsars to be 9l2, en-
increase of 81, evieeucing an increased
population in that district Of over 1,6Va
which every oue familiar with that dig
.rict knows to be absurd. IfElk District
has had any change in population it hss
been q shIiuksge.
Washington District polled in 1886, 23l
votes. The returns this year Indicate Sl7
votes, an ircresss o. S6 votes; agaia OF
more than 25 per cant.
Big Sandy apparently gains o. votes over
the vote of 1856, bsing an increase Of SO
per cent. And so on throughout the
county, without any substaatial reason for
its explanation.
We think it the duty of the competent
authorities to Investigate this matter, and
to tracs ID it's orikia the cause. That
there is q whole mss of rascality at the
bottom one can readily suppose, and if
allowed to 90 unwhipped of Justice it will
be repest:d next time with even greater
and more audacious effrontery.

cism of the present management Of the
order. Other opposition to Powderly is
bstei more on claim OF wsaSpes In
management than on such allegations as
have been made by Barry. Still, this op.
position is scarcely in form 10 fight him,
and he will doubtless be reelected with
cut trouble in case ho accepts, which no
one of his faiends say.
One talking delegate opposes Powdsry
because he has no backbone snd because
he is influenced by that gang Of corrup-
tionists from New York, who have been
the bane of the order since the Richmond
convention. He further says that 'in Q
geusral way Powderly makes O good Cen
eIal Master Wo; kmap, but be has given
the order away several times ct Chics 60
and Cohoes, and history will prove that
even the Southwest strike, given away by
Tom Mcclure and Charley Litchmsp, was
Inspired by Powderly." However, this
same dsleg, conceded Powderly's elec'
ton. 1t IS the lack Of concentration OF
the opposition that will bIirg about this
result.
Among those mentioned in these dis
patches heretofore
AS POSSIBLE CANDIDATES,
no ore is more frequently spoken Of than
W. T. Lewis, Of Pittsburg. He Is chief
executive of the Miners Association, COM
prising so, 900 membere, and his orgariza-
tion is liable to withdraw at their meeting
in December unless action agreeable to
their wishes is tnksn at this time. Homer
L. McGaw, of Pittsburg, one OF the pio-
nsers Of the order, and an anti-Powderly
man, is in the city, bat not as delegate.
He considers Mr.. Lswis much sup'r,or to
Mr.. Powderly in every way. He says
Powderly never won strike, and that the
policy pursued by him hss driven thous-
anda out of the order and many Of them
have been the best men in ii.
While Lewis is pushed by his fiisnds,
he himself states he is not candidate.
George Schilling. of Chicago, the Socialist,
is spoken of in this connection, but many
OF the de legates consider such tusgession
in the nature of joke, while Schilling will
not submit to be interviewed.

NEW YORK, November 14.-An Ottawa,
Ont, special says: Lord Stanley, Governor
General of Canada, came out squsrely
against the annexation sentiment in Can
ada while replying yesterday to an ad-
dress of welcome from the French Cana
dian citizars. He said: Gentlemen, you
are right, because the loyalty tothe throne
Of which you have spoken so elcquently is
the best guarantee of the preservation CT
the entirely fee institutions which you
enjoy and of which you have made such
good use in past times. Your loyalty,
YOU say, has bsen subject to many trials,
snd you have overcome those temptations
Of which you spoke just now in manner
which you can recall to-day with Just
pride in this the nineteenth century.
The same temptations do not fail to
present Themselves, slthOugh under a
changed sSpact for instance, people talk OF
annexation snd various ether cries known
to the political world. The monarchal con-
stitution gives us complete autonomy
without obligirg rs evtry four years to be
subject to these violent oscillations OF
politics, like these which Just now have
disturbed the business Of our neighbors of
the United States, ard under the external
form of republic it would be impo o'sible
to fud more complete expression Of the
sentiment and Of the wishes of the citizens,
than you iud to-day with us. Do not,
therefore, gentlemen, listen to thoie who
would endeavor to disturb you. We
know very well the object such in
tiiVucs, let us remain tranquil. Do not
let it te said that the Dom inion of Canada
mistrusted beref. Without donbt the
Confederation like other States will have
her difficulties, but she will come well out

Old Man Showers Pays the Penalty for
Murder.
LEBANON, PA, November l4.-At
11.O8 clock to-day Wm. Showers was
hanged in the jail yard for the murder of
his two grandchildren, at Aunville, May
II, 1897. He was attended by Rev. He'll,
of the Evangelical Association, this city,
and Rev. Deitzler, his former pastor at
Aunyille Lutheran church. Passes were
issued by the Sheriff TO about 400 persons
the hanging, and the small yard was
croEded. The Sheriff and his deputy
marched on either side Of the condemned
man from tie cell to the s;affold, preceded
by tie ministers. A short, solemn teC-
vics was held in his cell and again on tie
scafold, Just before the black csp was
drawn over the condemned mans mead.
After the services on the scatfJld the trap
was sprung and the aged murderer was
swung into eternity. He made no state
ment on the gaIlows and showed great
firmness throughout the solemn cere-
monies. Death resulted from strangula-
tiCn. Showers Dcdy will be taken t.
Anuville by his two sons, TO whom he
left letter Of twenty pages, giving full in
structions and it is thought confession.
