FOURTH WARD REPUBLICANS.
Rousing Speeches by Several Represen,
tatiYe Kenuhliclns.

The meeting of the Fourth Ward Republican
Club last night was fairly well attended and
was very interesting, number of telling
speeches having been made by leading Rspubli-
cans OF the city, a colored quartette filling in
with campaign songs between the speeches. Tho
chairman, George b. Kittiuger, called upon J.
NJ. Wrestling, candidate for alderman from the
ward; as the first speaker.
Mr.. Wrestling said he considered the question
OF municipal government the most vital OF all
public questions, because it came nearer the
home that the Democrats are reformers now,
but when they get control they are anything
bat reformers He did not believe in conduct
ing municipal campaigns on party lines, but it
was impossible to raise them much above that
level. The speaker closed by declaring that he
had no fault to find with the Democratic candi-
date for mayor, bit he believed John Leary was
the most truly representative man and most
closely allied with the interests of the city.
John J. McGilvTa was the next speaker. He
said the government of a municipality was
purely a business matter and should be as free
from party politics as possible, and it was not
the fault of the Republicans that the present
campaign had degenerated into so much of par
tisau fight. He then went on and ably defended
the administration for its liberal policy in the
development of the d hc-ent departments OF the
city government. He said Republicans ought
20 vote their party ticket until there is some
thing more substantial against the men elected
on that ticket than the campaign bluster OF
Democratic leaders
A. \ Garner, a colored man, was called for
and responded in a rousiug speech on the
methods of the Democrats in the south TO sup
press the negro vote. He said he was glad for
once that he was going 10 have a chance
TO vote where he knew his vote would be
counted, Tor ever since he became of nge he
was voting south OF Mason and Dixon's line.
and his ballot was never counted lie referred
to the statement made by Mr.. Ronald last sum
mer, that ''this is Il white mans country" and
said that any negro who proposed TO vote for a
man who made such n remark had no self
respect.
A. B. Ball urged that Republicans with
grievances should adjust them in their own
party, and not go to the Democrats for eonsola-
lion.
Mr.. Ball was followed by Lee Fairchild. who
spoke in humorous strain but with telling
effect. His illustrations were very amusing, and
each hsd very appropriate application. He
was warmly applsuded at the conclusion OF his
remarks.

this afternoon ran into and demolished
the rear end of n train loaded with en-
ployes of the Milwaukee shops of the

ing just left the main track On short
switch and strung itself out on a track
parallel with the main line. Switch

after the workmen's train, and the
local moment alter passed on a short
switch and in minute had telescoped the
rear car. Seven men were killed, being
terribly man gled. The occupants of the
coach had no warning of impending
danger, and in an instant they were being
ground between the sides of the overturned
coach and the cinder-coyered roadbed.
Strange to say, beside the seven unfortu-
nate victims only one man was injured
and he but slightly. Bartel was found this
evening and locked up.

The Standard Company Deprived of
Right to Garry Out Agreements.

COLUMBUS, o., March 1.-The supreme
court of Ohio in the case of Attorney
General Watson VS.. the Standard Oil Com
pany, handed down decision today of
Importance concerning trusts. This case
was instituted by petition in quo war
ranto to GUST the company from its Cor
porate rights and to forfeit its franchise.
The judgment of the court is to Dust the
company from its right to make the trust
agreements set forth in the petition, and
of its power TO perform the same.
This is all the attorney general desired.
He had no luminosity toward the company
and did not desire to deprive it of its cor
porate rights as enjoyed by others, but of
the trust agreements, which are contrary
to the law Under this decision the COM
pany will be allowed to continue its cor
porate powers. The decision of the su-
preme court sustains the attorney generals

deprecate In the warmcst manner the intro
duction of elias or race distinction into poiiti-
cal campaign. In municipal, state or national
affairs men of Irish race are Americans, and
Americans only, and not Irish, and if any citi-
zen of Irish birth or extraction hastens to the
support OF Mr. Leary in this campaign it is GER
tainly without any influence of mine, as I'M
dertake to control no vote but my own in the
coming election.
Mr.. Ronald and myself are personal friends,
as well as members of the same political party.
All statements to the contrary being unfair to
