Upon 1t, Says Governor Campbell,
Ohio Democrats Must Stand
or Fall.
The Battle Will Be One OF the Hardest
In the History OF Buckeye
Stslo Politics.
According to the Correspondents Har
rison and Allison Have q
Combine.

WASHINGTON, July 90 Kate Fields
Washington letter will contain an in
terview with Governor Campbell on the
Ohio campaign. He thinks it will per-
haps be the hardest fought on record.
The tariff issue will be the most con-
spicuous feature of the campaign.
Nothing could defeat the Democrats
except an enormous corruption fund,
and even that would fail in his opinion,
first because Ohio has never been
bought, aud therefore never will be, and
secondly because the Australian system
renders nugatory to great extent all
efforts to corrupt the voters. The silver
question will be an issue but not to
such an extent as the tariff. While the
Democrats declared, after fashion, for
free coinage, yet it was upon very
close vote, and the sentiment of the
party is much divided In this state. II
would perhaps be moro of an issue had
any other than Major Mckinley headed
the Republican ticket, but his nomina-
ton forces the tariff issue, and upon
that we must stand or fall.

The Missouri River Depriving &c. joe Of
Three Important Lines.
ST. JOSEPH, July 29.-Unless an al
most miraculous influence is brought to
bear upon the Missouri river to prevent
the inroads made at point west of the
city known as the Belmont bend, the
town of Elmwood, opposite this city,
covering territory of about six square
miles of farming country, win be sub
merged and the bridge and railroad
track will be rendered useless. The
neck of land separating the river above
and below the bend has been reduced to
a width of 900 feet. Should the river
cut through the Kansas bottoms ST.
Joseph will be deprived of three Of its
important railroads for months at least.
The iron bridge now spanning the
stream at this point would be rendered
useless. All communication with the
Kansas farmers would be cut of and it
would be impossible to estimate the
damage to merchants and business men.

who are detained at this port by the
requirements of the new immigration
Jaws. say that the final act of persecu-
tion which drove them from Russia was
the burning of their village, containing
eighteen houses, near veilla. A crowd
OF men came from Veilla in the night
and set the place on fire. Fourteen
Jews were burned to death and twenty
others badly injured. To the surprise
of the Russians, who were accustomed
TO see the Jews submit passively to all
outrages, the inhabitants armed them
selves with stones and sticks and pur-
sued the Russians.

The Jury in the Famous Columbus, O.,
Murder Case Finally Reaches
Verdict.
The Defendant Fonnd Guilty Of
Murder In the Second
Degree.
Under the Laws of Ohio He Must Suffer
Imprisonment for Life-Other
Crimes.

COLUMBUS, o., July 2s.-The jury in
the Elliott murder case returned ver-
dict of murder in the second degree at
1890 a. m. The court room was packed
in anticipation of the report of the jury
sometime during the forenoon. Judge
Pugh entered and assembled to the
bench at 1920 and was clos oly followed
by the jury. All being ready, Judge
Pugh directed Criminal Clerk Mitchell
to call the roll, and this being done
Judge Pugh inquired If they had agreed
on verdict, which brought out the
response from Foreman Pegg, ~We
have. Judge Pugh then asked that
the verdict be handed up, which was
done. Judge Pugh held the verdict in
his left hand and drew the entry in the
criminal docket. AS he handed the
verdict TO Clerk Mitchell to be read, he
admonished the audience not to indulge
In any demonstrations. The suspense
of the great crowd WAS intense when
Clerk Mitchell read the preliminary
lines Of the verdict. When that point
was reached where the verdict read:
rWe, the jury, find the defendant, w. j.
out and fell back in her brothers arms
In faint, she evidently expecting the
next words would be guilty OF murder
in the first degree. Clerk Mitchell
paused for few seconds and then went
on to read, mot guilty of murder in the
first degree, but do find him
guilty of murder In the second
degree" When these words were
spoken Elliott pulled his Grand Army
button from the button hole in the lapel
of his coat and threw it viciously ut the
jury. Instead of weakening, w. j.
Elliott grew more revengeful and his
face took onsa look of widest anger.
Mrs. Elliott did not shed tear, but the
excitement was so great that she prob
ably could not realize at the time what
the verdict meant. The children all be-
gan to cry when Miss Maroney tainted.
The scene was most heartrending one
and brought tears to the eyes of Fore
man Pegg, while the others bowed their
heads in mournful silence.
By the laws of Ohio, murder in the
second degree is punishable by life inn
prisonment, the court having no alter
native in the matter. Motion for new
trial was given. Thescourt fixed next
Saturday as the time for hearing argu-
ments ON the motion for q new trial.

BUzzARD's BAY, Mass, July 2o.--
There is q well authenticated rumor
here that Edwin Booth is dying from
the effects of too much smoking.
Though he is aware that it is killing
him he cannot shake off the habit. Elk.
President and Mrs. Cleveland and
Joseph Jefferson have striven to reform
Mr.. Booth from the excessive tobacco
use. and for time they partially sue
ceeded, but the habit had too strong a
hold on him and his indulgences became
more unrestrained than ever. 1t is be.
cause of relapse and because he knows
he cannot recover his health that he left

from his home at Long Branch, last
Friday to an insane asylum at Trenton,

within the last twenty years that the

probably be the last, for competent
physicians have pronounced his case
hopeless. Last week the doctor made
several attempts to iniure his attend

WASHINGTON, July ga pretty po

a political intrigue of considerable mag.

Cape May few days ago. While there

pose of the conference then. To sum.
Marie the matter briefly, Harrison ans
Allison formed a political scombinatiof
Of considerable magnitude. As result
Allison Ia to lay aside all presidential
aspirations In 1892, and Ii to give his
full support in the interest of Harrison's
denomination. In return for this
support Allison is to be Har.
rison's secretary of the treasury,
provided, Of course, that he Ii
renominated and reelected. This deal,
it Is claimed, goes even further than
this. Ii Harrison should be reelected
he Is to do his utmost to nominate Al
lison for bis own successor at the close
Of his next presidential term. Allison
is the only rian who can break the tide
in the West sgainst Blaine, should the
latter be considered presidential fac
tor. Allison has the strongest pull oi
any Western politician. With the Alli-
SON lever working for him, Mr.. Harri.
SON has some show of winning renora-
ination, in the event that the man from
