strike at N. X. Fairbanks works
as expected this morning, and the strike
of the gas men, which was to take place
this morning, failed to materialize. The
expected strike Of the dock men on the
Western Transportation company's line
and the Anchor line did not take place.
The reason is said to be that they
are not sufficiently organized and
that there are too many men ready TO
take their places. There is no change
in the situation of the carpenters strike.
Negotiations for settlement with the
new bosses association are said to be
complete, and the men will resume

Democrats Close the Campaign

The Democratic campaign ended with
a number of grand rallies in different
parts of the city last evening. and, if
the interest shown hy the large crowds
which turned out can be taken as an
index of the result of the election, the
most sanguine claims of the most en-
thuSiastic Democrats will be realized by
the result of the voting to-day. A grand
open air meeting Of the voters of the
Eighth and Ninth wards was held at the
corner of Sycamore street and Park
avenue, which was addressed by Arthur
John w. Willis, Aid. Gehan and David
Fitzgerald. There was tremend us
crowd in attendance, and the greatest
enthusiasm prevailed.
In the Fifth ward two monster Demo-
cratic rallies were held, one at Schade's
park, Oh West Seventh street. and the
other at the corner of Sherman
and West Seventh. Both meetings
were attended by what seemed to be
nearly the entire Democracy of the
Fifth ward, and enthusiastic and ami
mated speeches were delivered by Dan
w. Lawler, Judge j. J. McCafferty, Hon.
John l.. Townley, Hon. John Ii. Ives,
and many other noted speakers. The
promises" of the Kiefer-Newson COM
bination were riddled in manner both
interesting and entertaining to the
crowd.
Another great rally was held on Front

An Imposing Reception to EX-
plOrer Stanley.
LONDON, May 5.-The geographical
society reception to Henry M. Stanley
was held at the Albert hall this even
ing, and was attended by the Prince and
Princess of Wales, the Duke of Edin-
burgh, the Duke of Cambridge. the
Duke and Duchess of Teck, Prince and
Princess Won Hohenloe, the Duke of
Fife. the Duke of Argyll the Count of
Paris and brilliant aSSemblage of the
leaders of all classes of people. The
princes OF the royal family headed
a triumphal procession which conducted
Stanley and his colleagues into the hall.
The assemblage:: which completely
packed the building, rose Ell masse to
graphical society, in all appropriate
speech, presented medals to Stanley.
The explorer on rising to reply was
greeted with another Outburst of cheer
ing. In returning his thanks he said
he hoped that the warm personal
welcome he had received would be eX-
tended to the little that he could tell
them. He then proceeded to narrate
his adventures, assisted by huge
chart. The Prince of Wales moved a
vote OF thanks to Mr.. Stanley, and the
Duke of Edinburgh seconded the mo-
tion. The medal presented to Stanley
is of gold, and bears his effigy. Copies
of the medal in bronze were presented
to his colleagues, including Mr.. Bonney.
by the Prince Of Wales. In the course of
his speech Mr.. Stanley said that Car
pers had asked what was the utility of
the expedition. To this he replied that
the gain to humanity was great. The
expedition had opened up a new, rich
and productive region, and would en-
able them to teach millions of degraded
human beings in the forests that in
vegetable products they would find
something of far vaster value than the
flesh of their fellow creatures. As a
Christian nation, he said the English
people ought to rejoice that the few
thousand pounds lent to this work had
rescued 400 persons from slavery and
restored 200 to their homes in Egypt,
and had delivered Emin from stag
nant state of impossibilities to the active
service of friendly mutton. 1t was no
exaggeratlon to say that every mile ira
versed would serve in the future to eX-
tend British commerce, industry and
enterprise. Finally they had extended
the British possessions to the eastern
limits of the Congo, adding territory
covering thousands of miles without
force OF arms.

hours at night. The minimum rate of
wages has been fixed at 35 cents an hour
up to August l, and thereafter at
S715 cents an hour. Overtime is to be

The Supposed Murderer of Mrs.
Rutterfieid Under Arrest.

The Supposed Murderer of Mrs.
Butterfield Under Arrest.
DENVER, Col, May 5.-There are no
new developments in the Butterfield
murder mystery. The police are of the
opinion that the crime was committed
by some man who called at the house
for the purpose of renting room. Mrs.
Buttertield went up stairs to show him
the room, and he, finding she was alone,
attempted to outrage her, ,and in the fight
which ensued, he struck her a blow on
the temple which caused her death.
The woman's clothes were torn in
slireds and her body badly scratched.
Finding that the woman was
, dead. the wretch covered the body
with a blanket, washed his bloody hands
in wash bowl in the room and lie it by
! the back door, which he locked as he
went out. The crime was probably COM
mitted between and s p, m. Saturday,
and the body was not discovered until
Sunday. The dead woman at one time
/ lived in New York state, and her first
husband. Mr.. Bryant, was killed in
the war. She had divorced hush nd
Late this afternoon the police brought
as Charles Munsen, and occupa-
tion as a painter. The right
side of the mans face was
very badly scratched, acd his
forehead was in the same condition.
His left eye was quite black, as iffrom
a gouge or blow, and his right eye is not
in a very much better condition. The
assistant chief of detectives put the man
in the sweat box. with very unsats-
factory result. He claims to have ar
rived in the city Thursday of last week,
but could not tell who it was that
scratched him or when or where it hap
pened. The story was so out of joint
that he was ordered locked up. The
scratches on his face look as if they
might have been made within the last
forty-eight hours. and, to the police, is
a strong indication that they have the
right man.

Ingalls, in his interview has

because he cares any more for the Kan

IS the only rule by which he works.
He never has done anything for
the Kansas farmer, but look
down on them, and if he
were sent to the senate fifty years yet,
he never would. Who ever heard OF
him doing anything? but he is always
saying something, and there is quite a
difference. He is no doubt laughing in
his sleeves, thinking his interview
fooled the farmers of the state, but I
