THEY ARE FRIGHTENED.

The Republicans will Try to Poll Their
Full Strength and Let Democrats
Alone.
The following special sent from Della
ware to the Pittsburg Dispatch, q paper
that is doing all in its power 70 help
Major Mckinley, clearly shows that his
managers now realize that II will be inn
possible to poll their party vote and will
devote all their energy to Republicans and
attempt to buy enough votes TO place
Major Mckinley in the Governors chair.
The Republicans Of Ohio will not waste
their strength on the empty air this fall.
The policy will be not to try 70 convert
Democrats, as is days gone by,
but to keep up the enthusiasm in
their own ranks. The main meet
ings have been arranged for the Republi.
can strongholds all over the State. II
makes little difference TO the party man
ayers whether they elect Mckinley with n
small or great majority. His success will
be glory enough for them.
"Ohio," said w. T. Cope, the candidate
for State Treasurer, this morning, sis Re.
publican with majority ranging from
l5,OOO to 10000 votes. All that we have 10
do is to poll our full strength and victory
Will be ours. This can only be done by
hammering away until election day. The
opposition ha snot commenced activities
and suppose they are looking for us "a
make slips, out of which they can manu-
facture capital.

EvADED THE QUESTIONS.
Major Mckinley Declines to Answer
Questions
At the Mt. Gilead Meeting and Simply
Gives Them Another Dose Of the Niles
Address.

CARDINGToN, Aug. &.-lSpecial.l-Foi-
lowing are few Of the questions that
Major Mckinley was requested to answer
In his Mt. Gilead speech yesterday and
which he evaded:
"Did the tariff on steel rails bring down
the price from Sl66 per ton to the present
prices? Had the United States continued
to pursue the free trade policy which she
adopted in 1857 would steel rails now be
selling in the United States for Sl66 per
ton? If not, will you name some of the
causes in the order of their Importance
which were operating to bring down the
price besides the protective TARIFF
"Does the protective tariff make the
high wages in this country? Were it not
for protective tariff, would wages be as
low on an average as in the pauper ma
tions of Europe-for instance, Hungary or
Bohemia?
"Protectionists claim that atalthough pro-
lection at first for time increases the
price IL soon, through competition, greatly
lowers il. Has not the protective tariff on
wool therefore brought down the price OF
wool from nearly 30 cents per pound in
gold for merino wool in New York market
which was the price of wool when on the
free list of 1857 to the present price?
Other questions equally as important
were propounded but none of them were
answered. His address, was repetition
of his Niles speech, with but few and un-
important variations.

The officer 80 far has failed to find him.
In her sworn statement the young wom-
an says that she has known Justice Allen
for over year and that during most of
that time she has occupied rooms opposite
his office and that he embraced every OPP
portunity to call upon her. Regarding the
Pittsburg episode she says: VI saw Allen
at the depot and he gave me 50 to pay my
fare TO Youngstown. He did not ride with
me, but took seat in another car. He
told me that had better get off at the
Lake Shore depot, wait until il got dark
and then go to Mrs. Bonachers'. The next
morning he called on me and said: you
must swear this onto someone, and said
Charlie, to which objected, and he said ]
better. swore that Charlie Maurer was
the father OF my unborn babe because AL.
len told me to do so."
Attorney w. S. Anderson, who has AL.
lens case in hand, says that he will have
