Poisoned the a My.

Charles Ryder is prisoner il re
Riverhead Jail accused ofattempt.ns to
poison the family Of Benjamin L. Fan
ming on Friday by mixing paris green
in cocoa used by the family. ~" Fan
ming has large farn in MiddloroaG.
two miles south OF Riverhead. ~ the
opening of the winter Ryder, Who was
out of work, was permitted to 90 odd
jobs about the farm for his board until
he could find place.
He had an enormous appetite, {; II ii
appears to have brought him both tame
and trouble. Many jokes were made
at his expense. Farmer Tanning seems
to have gotten considerable fun out Of
Ryder on his eating propensiilcs when
Ryder first went there to board. Ryder
paid little attention TO the farmers WIT
ticisms. and continued his iIroads into
the family larder until the matter ceased
to be joke.
A crisis was reached at supper on
Thursday. The family had finished
their meal, but Ryder was still at it,
apparently as fresh as when he first sat
down.
Mr.. Tanning thought ii was about
time tc call q halt. He said that If a
man at his table couldn't get through
eating with the others he should be
sent away from the table. Without Il
word Ryder dropped his knife and fork,
and picking up his hat and coat strobe
out of the house. He was not seen
again that night, but was attending TO
his chores as usual the next morning.
AT breakfast that morning it was no
ticed that he declined 10 drink any CO
Goa, of which he was very fond. Mr.
Tanning and his wife and daughter
each drank one or two cups without no
ticing anything peculiar. After break
fast Mr.. Tanning drove TO the station
with the intention of going to River
head but was taken i'll and returned
home. He was suffering greatly from
cramps and nausea. On entering the
house hc found his wife and daughter
also very ILL., His thoughts reverted TO
RYDER and his refusal 10 drink cocoa
that morning. The man was not to be
found about the place so Mr.. Tanning
examined the box of cocoa and found
white particles which he took for strych-
nine mixed in the cocoa.
Taking the box with him Mr.. Fan
ming drove to DR.. Young's residence, in
Riyerhead. The doctor found the CO.
Goa mixed with plaster of paris and
paris green. He returned with Mr.
Tanning and soon had the two women
out Of danger. Justice Stackpole Is.
sued a warrant for Ryder's arrest and
he was captured near Calverton sta.
ton. He denied the accusation and
was locked up for eXamination.-Ncw

Continued from page 1.

twice it seemed as though small sized
riot might be precipitated.
When the Blaine contingent from the
State of Indiana marched triumphantly
through the streets and invaded the
rotunda of the West Hotel, wave of
indignation swept over tho Harrison
people which carried away the judy
ment of some of their leaders for brief
period and nearly resulted in dis
graceful scene.
In another way have the results of
the day tended to excite the forebodings
of the conserva i've party leaders who
are unidentified with either party. 1t
is observed that the managers of tho
rival factions are growing colder and
colder toward each other aDd that many
of the prominent leaders do not speak
to their fellow Republicans as they
meet in corridors.
The feeling is growing every hour
that this is to be q supreme battle of
giants, and that there are no compro-
mise candidates. Notwithstanding the
loyalty of the Michigan delegation to
Alger, it is believed that the result will
be decided upon the first ballot. In
point of popular enthusiasm, Blaine has
the best of it to-day.
The chief surprise of the day has
been the unexpected strength which the
Blaine men demonstrated in the Ohio
delegation. 1t has been generally
understood that of tho forty.six votes OF
tho Buckeye State Harrison would get
nearly three-fourths.
But on vote for member of the ma
tional committee the Harrison men num-
bered twenty three and Blaine twenty
one. Mckinley was made chairman of
the delegation, Foraker member of
the committee on resolutions and Will
liam Hahn member of the national
committee.

ton From Rocky Mount.
ROCKY MOUNT, June c. Special]-
Under the guise of Farmers ALI
ance meeting, the president of that or.
ganization called meeting in the
Opera House here to-day. When the
meeting was organized, the chairman,
the president OF the county Alliance, in
answer to a question announced the
character of the meeting and stated
thatit was not an Alliance meeting, but
meeting of those people favoring a
Peoples party, and that the object of
the meeting was to elect delegate to
to the Peoples party convention to be
held in Richmond.
A committee was appointed to draft
suitable resolutions to obtain expression
of the sense of the meeting in regard to
the third party present. The resolu-
tions endorse the third party platform
promulgated by the st. Louis conven-
ton, female suffrage and all.
Capt. G. w. Tate, delegate to the
Democratic State convention, was
elected a delegate to represent the
third party organization in this county.
There were perhaps seventy-five per-
sons present, two thirds of whom, at
least, were Republicans.

There were about thirty present and
with three exceptions they were in
favor of the work being commenced at
an early day. An objection, however,
was raised by all to the paying for the
paving at the intersections of streets
by the property owners. John SoXton,
the railroad contractor of this city, OBJ

wanted the time extended to at least
three years.
City Solicitor Miller made a short ad-

street bonds were voted and the manner
in which they would have to be used.
The meeting then adjourned.
There will be a special meeting Of
