WAYNE M,vEAGns FLOP.

Senator Hill Refuses TO Welcome Him to
tho Democratic Party and he Doesn't
MInco Words About 1t.
New YORK, Oct Ex-senator David B.
Hill, not satisfied with his thrust at
Wayne MacVeagh before the assembled
Democracy at the Tammany Hall dem
onstration, has given his opinion OF the
convert in unmistakable language.
The senator left Washington yesterday
for Lynchburg, but before he left the
capital he was interviewed by the Her
ads representative, and the following
account Of it is given in to-day's issue
OF that paper:
Senator Hill, while in Washington
Yesterday, was called upon by many
leading Democrats. In reply to con.
gratulations upon his Tammany Hall
speech he said: 81 am glad you were
pleased, and especially with that part
in which l paid my respects to that
venomous class OF political hypocrites
and mountebanks which seems to crop
out in Pennsylvania, as well as in other
states. cannot sufficiently emphasize
in words my contempt for this class OF
political renegades, and as well for
boilers and malcontents within the
party.
III Mr.. MacVeagh were patriot and
an honest man, as he now cla inns to be,
he would not have waited for sixteen
years to give utteranCe to his belief
that Mr.. Tilden was honestly elected
in 1S76. knowing that fact, as lie al
leges, and suppressiugit all these years,
while he was the beneficiary OF party
favor, clearly shows to my mind he is
not OF the class OF persons the Demo.
cratic party wants or should follow.
The Democratic party, and certainly
the sound Democrats do not need sci
Of egotistic, self-lauding upstarts to un-
dertaEo to tell them what to do.
Every Democrat had made up his
mind in November, 1876, that Mr.. Tilden
carried majority of the electoral vote,
and this MacYcagh was one oil the peo-
plo who joined in the great political
theft The Democratic party has pros
pered without him, and the mess this
vain glorious person has already made
will do the Democratic party more in
jury than good. Our Irish friends are
already in arms, and the moro no eX-
plains the more he condemns himself.
He should be repudiated by the party
for its own self respect 1t does not
need him and should not recognize him
by listening to his haranSucs. 1t is
not Democracy"

ArnooIoUs MURDER.

Case Near Chicago.

Tragedy Resembling tho Famous Smell
Case Near chicago.
CHICAGO, Oct. 27.-An atrocious MUIR
der, resembling in many respects the
slaughter four years ago OF Amos j.
Smell, the millionaire, was committed
last night at Melrose, a station on the
Chicago & Northwestern road, twelve
miles from this city.
The victim was Ernest Kunneth, an
aged German capitalist, who lived by
himself, had no enemies and bore an
excellont reputation. Knnneth always
kept considerable money in the house,
but none OF II was touched.
The murderers, for there were two OF
them, did not commit the crime for
robbery, but TO gain possession OF some
documents which the old man had in
his possession. A box containing these
papers was the only thing carried away.
AT 10 O'Clock this morning Dietrich
Woehler, who was tenant at Kun
neth's, accompanied by Mrs. Woohler
called at the house to pay his rent.
Close beside the table sitting in
his chair was Kunneth, His
face and head were covered with
blood and the room was literally GOV.
cred with tho dark red stains. A
swift, powerful blow had cleft tho old
mans skull clean to the eyebrows. He
never thought or moved after the in-
strument, large corn knife, came
down.
On the table stood bottle OF gin and
three glasses. Two chairs were facing
that in which the blood stained corpse
was found, showing that the men must
have been with Kunneth when the
deed wus done.
Money they had found, for il lay in
open sight whom Woehier entered the
house but it was not touched. The
only thing missing was the tin box in
which Kunneth kept his papers.

desirous of paying their last tribute of
not allowed to enter the train yard.
They clustered about the fence railing
in great numbers and nearly all stood
with heads uncovered in the presence
OF the distinguished dead. Even the
railroaders whose occupation required
them to visit the train removed their
hats when passing the car containing
the bier. Nobody attempted to intrude
on the privacy of the Presidents family
and they were undisturbed in their
grief. 1t was noticed by some as sim
gular coincidence that thecompartment
car local attached to the funeral train
had also formed part OF the train in
which the President made his cele-
brated tour through the south and west
in the spring OF 1891.
AT PITTSBURGH.
AtAltoona box of beautiful flowers
was handed on the train with the COM
pIiments of Mr.. and Mrs. Theo. N. Ely,
intimate friends of the President of
many years standing. Mr.. Ely accom-
panied the President as far as Galitzen.
Three powerful engines were required
to draw the heavy train up the steep
grade between Altoona and that point.
Two OF them were cut off at that point,
as one was sufficient for the remainder
OF the journey. The train made no
more stops OF any consequence until it
arrived, but its passage was witnessed
by large crowds OF sympathetic people
at Johnstown, Latrobe, Greensburg,
Jeanette, Irwin, Braddock, Wilkins
burg and East Liberty.
There was a slight delay on the run
because OF a hot box on the tender OF
the engine but the train arrived at
Pittsburgh at 10:40 o'clock and was
greeted by large throne OF people.
The train remained there fifteen min
utes, during which the cars were
thoroughly inspected and fresh en-
CINE was substituted for the one that
had made the run from Altoona. The
people took advantage OF their stop, by
crowding around the train and admir-
ing the beautiful flowers in the funeral
car. The President and family had re-
tired for the night and disappointed
thosewho had expected to sec them. 1t
was respectful good natured crowd
and no attempt was made to invade the
privacy OF the mourners. At 1855 the
train pulled out for the west.

HOMESTEAD, Pa, Oct. 27-The reign
Of lawlessness broke out with greater
force than ever last night about $3.50
o'clock. Two non.union men, D. w.
Fyock and John Homer, were going
down Dickson street, one with keg Of
of beer on his shoulder. and when the
P. Mex. d Y. railroad was reached they
were confronted by several strikers,
who applied approbrious epithets, at
the same time pushing the keg OF beer
from his shoulder The fellow was in
the act OF STOPPING down to pick up the
keg when he was struck with such
force as to fall to his knees. He then
whipped out revolver and fred at his
assailauts, the bullet striking boy
named George Clark i'll the calf OF the
leg. The wounded lad was Immediate
ly picked up and carried to the office OF
Dr. Purman, who dressed his injuries,
after which ne was removed TO his
home. The injured lad belongs to
Homestead. Fyock, who did the shoot
ing, was Immediately arrested and is
now in the lookup, awaiting Il hearing
this afternoon.
The belief Of the people here is that
the situation hns assumed serious as
pect and unless Sheriff McCleary sends
enough deputies to preserve the peace
steps OF some kind will be taken by the
citizens to save the town from the law
less element. Thomas j. Crawford.
president OF the advisory boPrd and
also other members OF the board, have
been using extra efforts to find out who
are engaged in the many lawless acts,
and it resulted last night in the resid-
dence of Mr.. Crawford being stoned and
his wife badly frightened by the lawless
element
Frank Milliken, who drives wagon
for Suhuchman & Co., was way-laid on
Eighth avenue about II o'clock last
night, and his face was badly distigured
for the present. He failed to recognize
his assailants nthe dark. Mr.. Milliken
has been moving non-union men to diff.
ferent parts Of town, which was doubt
less the cause OF the beatingbe received.
Work at the steel works still continue
as heretofore, no change OF any kind
having occurred which is the least
hopeful to the locked out men. Every
good citizen here declares that the
many disturbances on the street is
working great injury to the cause of the
strikers, and unless haltis called soon
the governor will be appealed to as a
last resort,
The result of the appointment Of new
deputies is that up to late hour to-
night all attempts at disorder have been
subdued.
A meeting OF business men was held
this evening to protest against the
riotous actions of late. The meeting
was largely attended. ]. T. Milliken,
borough solicitor, said that he thought
the time had arrived when the people
should take determined stand. He
favored resolution against the exist
ing "reign of thugism." Numbers Of
Homestead business and professional
men spoke in a similar strain. A reso-
luton was then adopted deprecating
the recent disturbances OF the peace,
and calling upon the sheriff to appeal
to the governor. if necessary, for sufi-
cient force to preserve good order.

Him Is Better.
LONDON, Oct. 27.-The death of Harry
Vane Milbank, the eldest son of Fred
erick AcIom Milbank, the Succession to
the baronetcy falls to Powlett Milbank,
Sir Fredericks second son, who does
not resemble his dead brother in any
way. AS an evidence of this it can be
stated that Powlett has agreed to con-
test the parliamentary district Of Rad
nor in the Conservative interest at the
next election. Harry Milbank had no
liking for any occupation that would
take him for single moment from
what he called the pleasures of life.
His death has recalled to certain
circle many stories of his career as an
amorist and duellist. He hid from pub
lie knowledge his early association witt
the notorious Mabel Gray. He never
said much about his marriage TO Alice,
the widow of Edward Belleroche, but he
had been known to admit tho facts
about his famous duels with the huA-
band OF lady he had compromised, her
brother, and her brother-in-law, all Of
whom fell victims to his deadly weapon.
1t was his marriage to Madame Belle
roche and not his other failings that
caused the late Duke Of Cleveland to
disinherit him.
Mr.. Powlett Milbank was born in
1862, four years after the birth oil Harry
Milbank. In 1875 he married Edith,
daughter Of Sir Richard Green Price,
and has four children, one son and
three daughters.

New YORK, Oct. 27.--rhe American
Protective Tariff League recently sent
letters to persons in control Of indus
tries, which, it is claimed, have
been established or increased by
tho Mckinley tariff, asking in
formation as to the number Of
persons employed, the character OF tho
products and the amount Of money
invested The American Economia
will, tomorrow, print many OF the
replies received by the league.
Taken altogether, the replies
show that S7,275 persons have
found employmentin in the industries re-
ierred to while in the same industries
the increased capital employed amounts
to S24O, ,409,O5O. The report, 1t is said is
incomplete, and the american Econo-
mist claims that about $4,000 persons
are now employed inindustries actually
established or increased by the new
tariff. 1t is pointed out that only
thirteen plants are reported manuiac-
turing tin or tin plate, whereas there
are said to be nearly thirty
establishments OF the kind in
the country; and in the manufacture OF
pearl buttons only six plants arc COW
cred by the report, while more than
