Its Managers Say Because of a Singers Ill
ness, but Others Say From Fear.
PARIS, Sept. 1.-THE long-expected,
much discussed and possibly dangerous pro-
duction of "Lohengrin" at the Grand Opera
House, set down for this evening, was post
poned according to an announcement made
at noon to-day, on account of the illness of
Van Dyck, the tenor, and "Robert lie
Diable" was selected as the substitute
opera
The general opinion, however, is that the
management of the Grand Opera House and
the municipal and other authorities of
Paris were seriously alarmed at the threats
made by the chauvinists, and consequently
they have abandoned the production of the
Wagnerian opera. The managers, however,
insist that they will produce "Lohengrin"
Monday should Van Dyck's health permit.
1t is known, however, that there has been
serious trouble at the rehearsals through
the presence there of Madame Wagner and
son. There has also been discomfort among
the orchestra, and menacing letters have
been sent to the managers and the. conductor.

A Prominent Railway journal on the Situ-
alton Since Cooley's Resignation.
CHICAGO, Sept 1.-THE Chicago Railauay
Reviec, in its forthcoming number, will dis
cuss editorially the situation precipitated
by the resignation of Hon. T. NJ. Cooley, as
Chairman of the Interstate Commerce
Commission, and will strongly urge the
appointment Of Aldace F. Walker, the
present Chairman of the Western Traffic
Association, as his successor. 1t will say,
among other things:
''The resignation of Judge Cooley, the
death of General Bragg, and the early ex-
piration of the term of Office of Colonel
Morrison, December 81, 1891, leaves the
board with only two members, both of
whom are practically new men. Mr.. Knapp,
the latest appointee, is as vet untried in his
position. General Veazey, although longer
on the board, has during the past year had
much of his time occupied with other
duties, and is, therefore, in sense yet a
new man. Both of these gentlemen are
Republicans. The law requires that not
more than three members of the Commits
sion shall belong to the same political
party: hence it follows that of the three ap-
pointees to be named within the next few
months two must be Democrats and one
must be Republican. We unhesitatingly
assert thar whoever may be selected as the
successor of Colonel Morrison when his
term shall expire, the two men of the
United States necessary to the Commission
at this critical juncture, because the most
by reason of education, train
ing and judicial qualification, are Hon. A.
f. Walker and Hon. August Schoon-
maker"

PAYING THE REWARDS
For the Killing and Capture OF Members

For the Killing and Capture of Members
of the Rube Burrows Gang.
WASHINGTON, Sept. 1.-THE final act in
the tragedy of the highwayman, Rube Bur-
rows, the suicide of Rubc Smith, and the
penitentiary life sentence of Joe jackson,
his accomplices, was performed to-day by
the Postofice Department officials signing
the warrants for the payment of the re-
wards offered by the Government for the
apprehension of these outlaws. For the
arrest of Burrows special award of 81, 900
will be paid to Jefferson D. Carter, of Myr-
tlewood, Ala. Under strict construction
of the rules of the department
which provide as an essential con-
dition of the payment of a reward
that the accused shall have been convicted
in United States Court, this reward could
not have been paid, but after thorough in
vestigation of all the facts and circum-
stances of the arrest, and in view of the fact
that Carter, in the struggle which resulted
in Burrows death, received a wound which
will result in the amputation of his right
arm, the Postmaster General has decided to
make an exception in his case.
For the arrest and conviction of Smith q
reward of 81 900 will be paid to Thomas V.
jackson, of Aberdeen, Miss. In the case of
jackson, who made full written confession
and then committed suicide by jumping
from the top gallery of the jail where he
was confined to the stone-paved court, sew
eral stories below, a reward of 81, 900 is to
be paid, equally divided among his several
captors. The particular crime for which
Burrows and his gang were arrested was the
robbery of mail train at Buckatuna, Miss,
September, 25, 1889. Burrows was arrested
little over year afterward.

he has in him all that goes to make an ideal

muddle in New York absolutely prevents

Chairman Watres and his satchel escaped to
Scranton to-day, leaving Republican head
quarters in charge of Secretary Frank Will
ing Leach The Lieutenant Governors law
business had not yet attained to that safe
situation which warrants him in leaving
matters rest long at time, as he gives one
day week to shaping up the more material
sides of his practice. Law partner Lemuel
Amerman will help him out by and by. Be-
fore going Mr.. Watres said:
"From all that hear not Republican
who has ever taken an active part is out of
line this year."
Democratic State Chairman Kerr came up
from Washington quite Unexpectedly to-
day, and pushed back his desk lid at the
Penn Square rooms for business. Secretary
Benjamin F. Mead had been telling all
comers that Mr.. Kerr would be here Mon
day next, and he was very much surprised
at the Clearfield statesman's appearance
In Justice to Mr.. Mead, however, Mr. Kerr
explained that he had written to that effect,
but had changed his plans The first callers
were Robert Emmet Wright, the Democratic
candidate for Auditor General, and City
Treasurer W. Redwood Wright. This was
the first time these two particular Wrights
had ever met, and it was the first visit of
the Lehigh valley leader since his nomina-
tion.
Chairman Kerr said that "the Democratic
campaign will be determined aggressive
and strong battle for clean elections, and it
will also be largely on the lines made known
in Mr. Wright's convention speech of ac-
ceptance, in which he declared thou shalt
not steal State issues alone command and
demand attention" The campaign will be
opened by the general assembly of the DEM
ocratic societies at Pittsburg, September 80
Mr. Wright stopped at the Girard House
this evening, and said: "There is no doubt
of the fact that the taxpayers and manufact-
uring interests of Pennsylvania are widely
awake this year to the condition of their
ofices.s We propose to an
swer their inquiries by statements covering
the grave questions now heard on every
side, and expect to visit every city and
town in the State. An active canvass will

ESPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DISPATCH.1
LONDON, O., Sept ia few weeks ago
the managers of the Madison county fair
conceived the idea of having political days,
and extending invitations to the Guberna-
torial candidates of the several parties to
address the people. The invitations were
accepted and arrangements made accord
ingly.
Wednesday was Democratic day, and
Governor Campbell, unable to be present,
sent 'hand' in the person of Captain G.
b. Bargar, of Columbus, who ''mildly" ad-
dressed the people. Yesterday was Pro-
hibition day, and Candidate Ashenhurst, of
Canton, spoke. This was Republican day,
and, without attempting to disparage the
previous political occasions, was the one
great day, not only in point of attendance,
but in point of speeches and enthusiasm.
Major Mckinley arrived here from
Steubenville at o'clock this morning. At
10 o'clock he was met at the hotel by the re-
ception committee and escorted to the fair
grounds by the Mckinley Club, 200 strong.
OLD MADISON GREETs THE MAJOR.
When he was conducted from his carriage
to the platform the applause that greeted
him was almost deafening. The building
was packed from pit to dome, while in front
and on all sides every inch ofstanding room
was occupied by earnest, eager listeners, a
large per cent of whom were the intelligent
farmers of this great agricultural county.
President G. w. Wilson, of the Fair
Association, in few words introduced S.
W. Durhinger, the Chairman of the meet
ing, who in turn very handsomely intro
duced the distinguished candidate and
speaker, Major Mckinley. Upon arising
Mr.. Mckinley was given, another ovation,
a round of long continued applause. With
out any preliminary remarks the Republi-
can candidate for Governor took up the
political issues and presented his arguments
to the multitude in his matchless' way. In
the great political parties political differ
ences exist, which the people will be called
upon to decide by their vote, and the two
overshadowing issues are the currency and
the tariff
THE SILVER QUESTION DISCUSSED.
of each of the two parties on these qnes-
tions, first taking up the silver question.
Among the points made was that under the
present Republican financial system the
Government put into its vaults the sum of
SCI, ,0OO,O 900 yearly as the profit between
the market value and face value
of the silver dollar. By the
unlimited coinage of silver, as,
indorsed by the Ohio Democratic party,
this S67, ,OO0, 900 will go into the pockets ofs
a few silver producers instead of into the
Government Treasury for the benefit of the
people.
Again, dollar worth 100 cents won't
keep company with dollar worth 76cents
The Majors speech was mastery one
throughout and both the great questions
were comprehensively discussed.

TWO RAILROADS IN TROUBLE.
The Reading and the Pennsylvania Compa.
nies Sued for Insurance.

PHILADELPHIA, Sept 1.-Attorneys
representing John Lornce, of Scotland, and
Alfred Sully and N. B. Randall, of New
York, to-day filed bill in equity in the
United States Circuit Court against the
Philadelphia and Reading Railroad Com
pany, the Reading Coal and Iron Company
and the Pennsylvania Company for insur-
ance on lives and granting annuities, COM
planning that interest due bondholders has
been diverted for other purposes. Com
plant was made against the trust company
that it did not fulfill its duty, inasmuch as
it should have brought suit against the
Reading Company as trustee under the
mortgage securing the bonds for an account
ing of the earnings.
The concluding prayer Of the bill is 'that
the defendants be enjoined from diverting
from the payment of interest on your
orators bonds any of the earnings, profits
and income of the said companies which
may, according to the terms of the said
bonds and mortgage, be justly applicable
thereto, and that to that end, if necessary,
a receiver of said earnings, profits and in
come be appointed.
