and Bulmer we're detailed on the case,
and when the company arrived they
began to watch. Yesterday they
planted themselves in the lobby of the
theater. All arrangements had been
made, and when Gross stepped up to
the window and bought the ticket they
were almost certain they had their
man, When he handed in the note for
Miss Brascom they were certain, and
followed him to his boarding house,
WHERE HE WAS ARRESTED.
He registered as Robert E. Gross, aged
twenty-siX, an entry clerk by Occupa-
ton, and residence st. Paul. When
searched a picture of Miss Brascom was
found in his inside vest pocket. There
was letter also. 1t was from woman,
and reads as follows:
ST PAUL. Aug. 2S.
Don't believe you know who it is from, but
by trying real hard l think you will be able
to guess. If you don't know, keep guessing
until l see you. You Know.
The lit" referred to was a lock of hair
tied with piece of blue ribbon, and
Miss Brascom has hair just like it. Then
there was the following telegram:
CHICAGO, H., Sept. IS.
Robert E. Gross, St. Paul: Please SEND me
money at once, care McCoy's hotel LYDIA.
His vaIlse contained lot of clothing
and a big revolver. He was locked Dp
and the st. Paul authorities nOtihed.
Miss Brascom, the young lady in the
case, was seen at Heuck'S last night.
She says that She knows Gross, but as
far as she knew he was all right. She
told the other girls in the company
THAT he was such a lovely gentleman"
but she cared nothing for him. She
said that she had been out riding with
him, but he never did anything for her.
The only thing he ever gave her was a
veil. She was very sorry that he was
arrested, but she could not help it. She
denied ever having sent HIM telegram
for money, and declared that she had
told him time and time again that if he
did rot stop following her about the
country she would tell Mr.. Wilbur. but
this didn't stop him. The first thing he
did after being arrested was to send
Miss Brascom note.

Says the Issue was Protection
Against Free Trade.
COLUMBUS. o., Nov. S.-The scene in
the Office of Gov. Mckinley last night
was very different from the scene in the
same place year ago. Then the
champion Of protection to American in
dustries sat surrounded by few friends
dismally regarding the returns which
Indicated that the cause for which he
had So strenuouSly battled had gone
down in defeat. Last night, in the
same chair, listening complacently to
the reading Of returns which told that
the cause of protection was again
triumphant. a year ago the doors of
the governors Office were closed at
midnight and none but friends were ad-
mitted. Last night both doors were
open and everybody was welcome, even
the boy with the tin horn being well
come. Last year ii was funeral scene,
with marks Of sorrow on every coun-
tenance; last night it was a scene of
rejoicing, and every face was Wreathed
in smiles.
The same telegraph instrument in the
corner ticked off the messages, and they
were read from the same table. BuD
there had been a change.
In reply 10 an inquiry from General
Manager Stone. of the Associated Press,
as to the causes OF the result in Ohio,
Gov, Mckinley today states that Law

The young man went back to his room
and took his valise, and was soon on his
way to central police station. Upon his
arrival lie was taken before Chief
Deltsch, who told him that he was want
ed in st. Paul for forgery. The young
man said that he knew he was. and that
he would go back without reQuisition
papers.
The arrest of Robert E. Gross was
caused by his infatuation.
FOR CHORUS iIRL.
Gross IS I'VE nty-siX years old, and
was porn at " 80 Liberty, D. He
dritted to st. Paul, where he held sew
eral resposible positions. When the
Wilbur Opera Company began an en-
gagement at st. Paul last June Gross
was working for the Robinson q
Strauss Company. He attended the
opera performance. One of the pretty
young girls who kicks up her heels in
the chorus is Lydia Brascom. She has
curly blonde hair and blue eyes. She
made quite an impression on Gross. for
he sent her note to meet him. She
met him, and from that time he was
ION her staff" He took her out riding
many and many time and entertained
her at lunch. But he had to have
money to do that,as chorus girls are yerv
expensive luXuries, and entry clerks are
not getting salaries that will permit
carriage rides and midnight suppers.
So he had to commit forgery to keep up
his gait with the curly-haired lydia.
About that time the company left Town

In his opening speech in this cam
paign at Newark, o.. Mr.. Neal not only
said that his campaign would be fought
on the lines of the Chicago platform,
which had been Incorporated into the
state platform, on which he stood, but
he also so clearly defined his position,
boldly as a free trader, that the two can
didates were recognized throughout the
canvass as embodying in their views
this issue as it had never been before so
distinctly presented to the people.
The next day after Neal's speech at
Newark, "saysGov. Mckinley" "1accepted

public meetings of each candidate that
followed, which were Invariably ad-

Gov. Mckinley said the returns would
now speak more forclbly than he was
able to do, and he knew of nothing he
could add. except to say that heretofore
the campaigns have been conducted
with complications of issues, but that

CHICAGO, Nov. S.-The following tel
egram was received tonight:
Hamilton, o., Nov. $50 Melville E.
Stone, General Manager Associated
Press: Replying to your inquiry, be-
lieve that the result of the recent cleo
ton shows that Ohio was merely shar-
ing in the general shaking up which the
Democratic party is receiving all along
the line from Massachusetts to Iowa.
The business depression is attributed by
partisans and unthinking portions OF our
people to the present federal admins
tration. The eX-soidiers are somewhat
moved by the needless fear that they
will not be justly and literally dealt
with. There is a natural ebbIng OF the
tide from the great flow of last year.
There are sore and disappointed ap-
plicants for Office. These are the causes
of the defeat. The fear of tariff revision
had nothing TO do with it whatever.

A PROIECToRATE.
Cleveland May Recommend n Pro-
Visional Government for Hawaii.

VICTORIA, B. c.. Nov. S.-Advices
from Honolulu received by the steamer
Warrimoo, which arrived from Sydney,
Australia, this afternoon, state that
Chief Justice Idt and Land Commits
sioner Chambers, who passed there by
the MaripoSa ell route TO Samoa, are
authority for the statement that
Mr.. Cleveland Will recommend
sort of protectorate for
Hawaii, under the form of a
new treaty which will be sent to the
senate in December. Chambers made
the statement that Mr.. Cleveland would
recommend to the provisional govern
ment that an election to settle the form
of the new government under the treaty
should be with an income qualification
fixed at $1,000. When the matter was
brought to the attention of President
Dole and the members of the govern
ment the opinion was expressed that
such an arrangement would be salts
factory.
Chief Justice Ide confirmed the state
ment made by Chambers, and instructed
that the United States did not intend to
let go either of the Hawaiian Islands or
Samoa. This, he said, was Cleveland's
Pacific policy, and would be carried out
to the letter.
A leading Royalist at Honolulu claims
to have received semi-official adVices
from Washington to the effect that the
eX-queen Will be restored within linz
tied period. They are confident that
the News is genuine.
The Hawaiian treasury surplus con-
tinues to increase. and is now upwards
of 100000.
The attempt to float the Miowera,
made by Capt. Mcdowell, has failed.
Capt. Metcalf, agent of the American
Lloyds, is now at Honolulu directing the
efforts for removal. He claims that Nc
Dowell erred in towing from her bow,
and that she can only come off as she
went on. The agents of the steamer
are doubtful of the success of the plan.
Things are not as prosperous as they
might be, but citizens of the United
States still have numerous blessings for
which they should be thankful.-St.

officers and district judges were elected

possible for the politicians to make
comparison showing party gains and
losses. The returns indicate that the
Populists have lost ground, but they
claim that when the rural districts

own. The Republicans have probably
elected seven judges, the Populists five
and the Democrats one. The Repub-
licans claim to have secured most of the
offices in at least 75 out of the IO5 coun-
ties in the state, and to have elected
nine out Of the thirteen judges. Frank

publican league, says:
From a careful examination of re-
ports received at his office he is con-
vinced that the Republicans have car
ried eighty counties and made relative
gain over last year. He thinks the
Populists will show a gain over 1891, on
account of the Democratic Demoraliza-

his party will show heavy relative gains

BosTON, Nov. S.-The result of the
election in Massachusetts can only be
described as a huge political landslide.
For the first time in three years the
state Will have Republican governor,
and his plurality is ZOO at the least.
Tie whole ticket is elected with him,
and the legislature is solldly Republican
in both branches. The most sanguine
people had not claimed over $4,000 for
Greenhalge. The astonishing result is
attributed by tE0se Democrats who will
talk about it to the present industrial
depression. aideu by the fact that
Massachusetts is normally Republican
state. The ProhIDitlonist vote did not
differ from last years figures, but the
PopuliSis managed to increase their
vote 100 per. cent. The socialist and

voyage and put back to this port.
Frank Floyd and Philip Scheig resolved
not 10 wait for repairs to be completed,
but engaged passage on the steamship
Spree, and went to southampton
