A BOLD ABDUCTION.

A Child Taken From It's Nurse fin One
 Of New Orleans Principal Streets.
 HOUSTON, Tex, Oct. 15.-Yestertlay q bold piece of villainy was perpetrated in this city upon one of the principal streets It was the abduction of Celeste Gaines, the six-year- old daughter of Colonel Will s. Gaines of Austin. The colonel arrived here on Monday with his daughter and left her with her relative, Mrs. Rutherford, while he made a business visit to Colum- bia, near the coast, looking after land i'm terests. Yesterday the nurse, Mrs. Asbury, took the child out to purchase something for it and as they were getting into the car returning home man stepped. up, took the child in his arms and entered a carriage occupied by lady and drove rapidly away. Detectives were immediately notified and they went to work on the case, but at mid night no trace had been found, but there is very strong belief that the abductors and child are still in this city. Colonel Gaines was telegraphed for. The child's mother is in St. Louis, where she was mar ried seven or eight years ago to Colonel Gaines. The matter is creating considera- ble excitement.

TERRIBLE HOLOCAUST. Many People Turned in a Hotel Fire at Syracuse Several Dashed to
 Pieces by Falling and Jumping
 pIetely Destroyed-The Entire Fire
 Department on the Scene-How the
 Fire Started-Partial List of the
 Dead.
 SYRACUSE, Oct. 16, ga. m.-The most disastrous fire that has visited Syracuse for many years was discovered in the Leland hotelat 12:30 o'clock this morning. The fire is still burning iercely, although the entire fire department, consisting of nine engines, are working hard to save further loss of life and limb. An eyewitness of the fire says he is positive that at least twenty five persons have lost their lives and many more have been more or less injured.
 One woman was being lowered from a window by the aid of rope and had reached point opposite the third story, when the rope became ignited from a burning sill. It parted and the woman fell to the pavement, her brains dashed out and her body fattened into shapeless mass.
 So great is the confusion and excite ment that the indentity of those killed and injured is wholly unknown. Under takers ambulances are flying in all direc- tions and the streets in the neighborhood of the i'll fated hotel are thronged with excited people.
 Frank Carey of Glens Falls, N. Y., has been identified as one of those that were burned to death. Many lives were lost by people crazed with fright, who jumped from windows. One man says he saw six people jump from different windows on the Fayette street side of the building within a space of four minutes.
 The building was provided with iron fire escapes on the outside and ropes on the insides, which were the means of sav- ing many lives. Burnet Forbes, a stock broker of this city, escaped into the street almost entirely nude. He was slightly injured about the hands, He loses gold watch, valued at $500, and all of his cloth ing.
 One woman was found with a nursing babe in her arms, crouched in stairway, where she had been overcome by smoke. She was removed by the firemen, but has not regained consciousness. The fire is said to have started in the kitchen. The building will be total loss. It was built two years ago at cost of S150, 900. It is six stories high and contained 400 rooms
 It is impossible to learn how many guests were in the hotel at the time the fire broke out. The total loss will not fall short of half a million dollars and the building is partially covered by insurance, but it is impossible to learn how much in- surance was carried on the hotel furniture or what the private and individual losses will be-

Shot by a Brother omcer.

CHICAGO, Oct. 15.-Oficer Junge of the Stanton avenue station was shot and fatal ly wounded by brother officer this morn ing. It appears that Junge got into an argument with Officer Madden about re- ligion and Madden accused Junge of be- longing to the organization known as the American Progressive union or United Order of Deputies. One word brought on another until Junge struck Madden with his club, when the latter, drew his reuolver and shot Junge in the left side, about two inches above the heart. The injured man was conveyed to the station and physi- elan called, who pronounced his condition hopeless. Madden disappeared and has not vet been arrested

Governor Steele Receives Warning
 That He Will be Assassinated.
 KANSAS CIrY, Oct. 15.-A special from Oklahoma City says: Governor Steele, en route to Kingfisher to attend a Grand Army reunion, received warning that he would be assassinated if he passed through here, because of his having vetoed the bill locat- ing the territorial capitol at this place. At the solicitation of his family and friends he left the train at small station before reaching Oklahoma City and continued his journey by stage. The feeling against the governor is very bitter and it is believed the desperate men would have carried out the threat had not the governor changed his route.

CARRIAGE BUILDERS IN SESSION.

Report of MT. Hooker of New Haven
 on the Subject.
 CHICAGO, Oct. 15.-The annual conven- tion of the Carriage Builders National as- sociation was opened here yesterday. John A. Scott of Boston presided. The executive committee, through it's chair man, Frank H. Hooker of New Haven, Conn.,, made an exhaustive report, con- taining many suggestions of interest to carriage manufacturers. During the past year, the report stated, over 400 factories, several of mammoth proportions, have been erected. Many favorable conditions presented themselves during the year just closed that claim the attention of the man. ufacturers. An increased demand from foreign markets has given to the trade a desirable impetus. An unusual dearth of skilled mechanics and small margin of profit, owing to strong competition, was one of the unfavorable conditions pre- sented. The technical school recently opened in New York was reported as being in a fourishing condition and receiving hearty support from members in all sec tions of the country.

LIVE ISSUES OF THE DAY.

Drift of Speaker Reeds Address at
 Buhalo-Answer Easy Questions
 The Nall Hit on the Head Every
 Time.
 BUFFALO, Oct. 15.-Hon. Thomas B. Reed addressed an audience of over three thousand people in Music hall tonight. Speaker Reed was given a royal reception. He was escoated to Music hall by the Re- publican league club and on being intro duced by Chairman Becker he was greeted witha storm of applause. After thanking his audience for their cordial welcome he said:
 ''1 intend to address you tonight on the living issues of the day, but will vary the order have been respectfully requested by a. democratic club to answer certain questions. 1 am so little used to respect full language from the democratic party in the region where the major part of my du- ties is performed that feel inclined on. .ac- count of this remarkable phenomenon to comply with the request and further be- cause the questions are quite easy. The first question is, do I consider the McKin- ley bill just to the poor! We'll, I should say so. A bill which has for it's object the raising of the wages of the poor, and at the same time to lower the price of neces- sities, would seem to me to be not only just, but generous. This club desires also to know whether any instances can be given where wages have been raised by a high tariff bill. The Mckinley bill has been in operation only nine days, and it of the club that they expect wages to be raised in that time by that bill. But if they read the morning newspapers they would learn that manufacturers of pearl buttons are reported to have raised wages of their men 15 per cent. on account of the Mckinley bill. What shall it profit a young free trader if he only loves Gro yer Cleveland and never reads the mug wump papers!
 Another question is: If protection makes higher wages, why is it that the people of New South Wales have higher wages than protected Frances Protection never raises wages. The question is: Whether protection causes higher wages than in a country under free trade2 That question is answered by the United States Everybody knows that the wages of the laboring man in the United States is high. CT to-day than in 1853 at the close of the free trade period.
 ''Stin another question is Can I state any article which has been lowered in price by the Mckinley or any other tariff billa can spend the evening doing that. I re- member paying $1.25 yard for ingrain carpet, which can buy to-day for forty five cents. Iron nails cost $6 keg then, steel ones now are $390."
 MT. Reed said that the tariff agitation of the past seven years should now cease in the interest of business. He spoke of the obstruction tactics of the democrats in the last session and urged the necessity of a federal election law.
 MT. Reed goes from here to Ohio to speak | in Major McKinley's district.
