FOUND DEAD BY THE TRACK.
James Edwards Probably Killed by . Train
Near lvy CITY,

Oatneb EuWarus ffODaDfy ALLIED by . Train
Near Ivy City.
Passengers on the early morning train on
the Baltimore and Ohio railroad saw beside the
track near Ivy City the dead body Of colored
man. but the trairmen did not touch the body.
Later in the morning when persons living near
the railroad discovered the body word was sen;
to the police and the patrol wagon from the
eighth precinct station conveyed the remains
to the morgue.
The body was found near the track, and il
was generally supposed that the man had been
struck by railroad train, but with the oxcep-
ton Of blood on mis- face there was no outward
evidence Of violence.
The body had evidently been there some
time, rs the clothing, such az il was, was water
soaked and covered with mud, and the condi-
tion of one side OF the dead mans face made il
evident that he had been thrown or had fallen
violently to the ground.
No one about Ivy City seemed to know who
the man was, although it was evident that be
had been visiting in that locality. He was q
good-sized dark-skinned man and wore an
overcoat that was torn as though it had probs-
bly, been caught by passing train.
Later in the day ii was stated that the man
was James Edwards and that he was employed
by butcher in the market named Eggieston.
1t was also stated that the man lived In Alexan-
dria with his mother and sister.
Coroner Patterson was notified OF the mans
death and viii invostigate the affair this after
noon or tomorrow.

TWO CENTS.
DEMOCRATIC sCHooLMAsrERs.
0r. Lawrence Gardner Satisfied with the
Results OF His Work In the West


The party Of democratic workers. including
Senator Faulkner. Representative Byuum, Gen.
Black and Mr.. Lawrence Gardner. who have
been making tour Of the great northwest for
the purpose Of perfecting the democratic club
organization and spreading the democratic
teachings, have returned full OF enthusiasm
and satisfaction with the result of their work.
Mr.. Gardner who is secretary Of the national
association Of democratic clubs, said to a STAR
reporter this morning that their expectations
on the trip were far exceeded. I'VE did not
expect" he said, ito have large audiences SO
early in the campaign. We were merely going
IN advance of the campaign TO perfect tho
democratic club organization and did not look
Tor crowded meetings But we were received
by large crowds and on every hand were
demonstrations Of democratic enthusiasm. The
public audiences were largely made up OF
republicans VINO were interested in he subjects
We were discussing, but at the club meetings,
where none but democratic were present the
attendance was very large and there was every
evidence OF active interest and determined
work. Where the organization imperfec.
and there was any sort OF division we sue
ceeded IN bringing al, factions together. The
democratic clubs throughout shat region are in
position TO do effective work ana they may
be depended on TO do it. All through the far
northwest large proportion OF the men who
are active in all the enterprises are
college men, many from Harvard and Yale.
who have been republicans hat who are free
traders, going further in that direction than
most OF our democratic speakers do. The tarifi
question is what chiefly interests the people
throughout that Gee ton. We have here a ytry
greatly exaggerated idea about the state oi
pubic sentiment in she west on the silver qaes-
ton 1t is by no means the leading question.
There are some people who talk silver, anu
there is sentiment generally favorable to it,
but they are ready to compromise on that issus
to promote tariff reform. The thing they srs
vitality interested in is the reduction of taxa
ton. We found that sentiment everywhere.
The name Of Cleveland and mention OF tari.i
reform always excited enthusiasm. The en-
thusiasm was undoubtedly for the democracy.
The names of Tilden and Hancock excited al
great outbursts of applause ss did that OF
Cleveland"
