Horne Rule Demanded.

Albert hall was crammed today with
10000 people, the occasion being the
Rnti-home rule demonstration planned
by the Unionist alliance. The specta-
Gle was a most brilliant one. The whole
first tier of boxes was filled with ladies
In bright summer costumes and the
front platform was decorated with
palms, masses of flowers and banners.
The vast assemblage displayed great
enthusiasm and sang Rule Britannia"
and the national anthem. Among the
distin guished UniOnIsts present were
The Marquis of Londonderry, the Earl
of Arran, and the Earl of Bandon,
Baron Ashbourne and nearly every
Irish Tory peer. The Duke of Aber-
leeu presided at the meeting. He said
they were entering upon deadly strug
lge. Was everything they held dear, he
asked, to be abandoned at the command
Of the dictator. William E. Gladstone?
Here the speaker was interrupted by
grOans for Gladstone and cries of
HTraitOr" and "BarabbaS." The duke
proceeded to say that the verdict still
remained with the British people, who
could be trusted to finally reject the
Rbhorrent measure. Resolutions were
adopted by the meeting denouncing
Irish home rule.

DIED AT THE CITY HALL.

plred.

william Geller Found on the Street and
Taken to the Lookup, Where He TX
pIred.
Yesterday morning at quarter past
four officer Jacob Watson found William
Geller, a harness maker, who has
worked at his trade In this city, for
various firms, for number OF years,
lying apparently dead drunk, on the
north side OF Twelfth street, about mid
way between Market and Main. A REG
IsTER reporter arrived about the same
time as the officer, aud an effort was
made TO arouse Gsller, but II was unavail-
ing, as the man had been drinking very
heavily all during the previous day aud
night and for several weeks past, and
seemed TO be completely saturated with
LIQUOR. He was breathing heavily and
with evident effort, In such a manner
as TO suggest conclusion or hemor-
rhage of the brain, and the PROSTATE
man was examined by the aid OF
matches, but no wound could be dis
covered upon him. The patrol wa gon
was summoned, and Geller was
conveyed to the City Hall,
where he was laid down. Efforts were
made to arouse him during the morn
ing, but they were uuaVsilinR, and he
was allowed to remain in his cell until
his case was called In Police Court.
Then another effort was made to arouse
the man, but as 1t also failed Lieut..
TerrilI and several officers carried the
man into the outer Office Of the Lock
up Keeper There be was laid down,
and life was found to be extinct.
Coroner Schultze was summoned, and
after an enquiry returned verdict OF
death from alcoholism.
Geler was about fofty-three or
forty-four years old, and was native
OF ST. ClairsviIle, bis father being
Samuel Geler. Deceased was = vet
ersn soldier, having entered the ser
vice as drum boy. Relatives at St.
Clairsville were notified by telephone,
and also Holiday Post, G. A. Z. The
body was taken to Altmeysr's and pre-
pared for burial, and was later taken to
ST. Clairsville.

The President Has Not Yet Given His
Consent to q ComprsmIse-The Senate

WASHINGTON, October 1s.-The room
Of the Senate Committee on Appropria-
tions has been the scene of most Of the
conferences which have taken place
and Senator Cockrell, the chairman Of
the Committee on Appropriations has
rapidly come to the front in an effort for
a compromise. He not in this work had
the active cooperation Of Messrs. Cor
man, Harris, Vest and Faulkner. Their
object has been to find means OF set
Ting the question so as to pre-
serve the autonomy OF the DEM
ocratic party and to grant recog-
milton to silver as much as may be
possible. They have had before
them all the amendments so far offered
and have been getting up patchwork
which, when 1t is turned out, will
prove to have some of the features OF
all, with possibly some OF those Of the
present law. 1t will, in all probability,
provide for the coinage OF the silver
now in the treasury, for the continued
UuICudSc dlu COludkO Va VIZ
rate of from two to three million
dollars per month for a specified time
and for the retirement Of all paper cur
rency except silver certificates and OF
all gold coins Of smaller denomination
than S10, Ali that is being done by
the Democratic Senators. 1t seems
probable that the measure
will encounter the opposition Of
the solid Republican party in
the Senate. The silver Republicans
will make vigorous objection to any
limitations OF the time Of purchase to
period within the term OF Mr.. Cleve-
land, but will probably not filibuster 10
prevent action, as their efforts would
be futile. There have been attempts
on the part of some Senators to have
the bank tax removed, and on
the part of some others to
have provision for the issuance
of the bonds included in the proposed
substitute, but at last advices neither
proposition was agreed upon.
The President has not yet given his
consent to any compromise. Most OF
the repeal force still say for publication
that they will not be party to COM
promise, but they are nevertheless par
ticipating in the effort TO arrange one.
At 1855 o. IN. the Senate adjourned.

Wires Down Everywhers.

WASHINGTON, d. c., October 10
The West India cyclone and the storm
from the northwest Joined Issues this
morning east and west, and since then
telerraphic communication has been
practically at a staHdstlll.
After sweeping over the Florida
peninsula yesterday the cyclone made
its way north throughout Georgia, North
Carolina and the Virginias, and the
storm from the West somewhere In
Pennsylvania or Ohio, where both diff
fused over a wide era, playing havoc
with all means OF wire communication.
An attempt was made 10 work the
Associated Press circuits by dividing
them into small sections aud relay
Ing" but IL was even then found almost
impossible TO carry the important news
OF the day.
At7 o'clock the Western Union Com
pany reported that all their wires
between Washington and Harris
burg and New York were down;
that Communication between Plttsourg
and New York was at a standstill, and
that all the other New York routes
were almost useless.
At the Postal Telegraph office the
same situation obtains, their Washing.
ton Chicago wires being down." and
the New York wires being so slow as to
be Of no value whatever.
At the present writing one OF the AS
ISOLATED Press circuits to New York is
via Buffalo, and Is working very hard.
Another circuit has been started south
10 reach Memphis and Chattanooga, and
thence north and south to New Orleans.

there was no incentive for the collec-

ANOTHER TERRIFIC STORM
Raging Along the Southern Coast-Wlres
Down and Cities Flooded

NASHVILLE, Tenn, October ia
dispatch just received by the Banner
from Atlanta, Ca, says:
The wires are all down beyond jack
sonville, Fla. The greatest force OF the
storm was felt on the east gulf coast,
near Tampa. Charleston is two feet un-
der water from Rutledge street to the
east. The damage to the Charleston
water front cunnot be estimated yet. II
was crowded with cotton.
Nothing has been heard from the
islands on the coast. All wires into
Charleston are down. The storm did
little eamage in Savannah. The lower
part OF the city is covered with water.
Nothing has been heard from Tyoee
island since midnight, when the wind
was blowing sixty miles an hour In
dlcations are that the storm spent its
greatest fury on the ocean.
Much anxiety is felt for the steam
ship City Of Augusta, due tonight. II
is probable that she encountered the
storm Just OF Hunting island.
