Assassin Prendergast's Courage Forsakes
Him when Arraigned In Court.
CHICAGO, Nov. 2.-Patrick Eugene
Joseph Prendergast, the murderer OF
Mayor Harrison, was arraigned in
Judge Horizons court to-day. The court
room was crowded, and when the pris.
oner was led in by the jailor, the spec
tors Jumped to their feet.
The action terrified Prendergast, and
with banched face he crouched close to
the officers. He could scarcely stand
aud had to be assisted to his seat.
When the indictment was read Prender.
CAST responded nervously, mot Gull
ty.'
Have you an Attorney" asked the
Judge.
NO, but expect to get one," re-
sponded the prisoner, family.
The Judge then announced that the
case would be continued to give Prem.
dergast an opportunity to secure coun.
sci and the assassin was led trembling
back to his cell. The prisoner had evil
IDENTIFY intended tolnake speech IN tho
court room, but his fear OF mob vio-

terror and he seemed glad to get back
to Jail. An excited crowd OF over 900
laboring people participated last night
in the hanging in effigy OF Prendergast
on Canal Port avenue. An adjacent 20.
lice station was notified by an excited
citizen that the mob had taken the MUIR

A body of police officers was sent to the

men refused to interfere and the dunn

J. II. CLARK AT MAssILLoN.

The We'll Known Democratic Orators
Elo1uence Fails to Awaken Enthusiasm.
\ Cold Meeting.
SItcGi Dispatch 10 Gic InieliJencer
MAssILov, o., Nov. 2.-The Demo-
Gratis cndeavored to hold mass meet
ing last night to stir up some Neal en-
thu.iasm. but their effort proved
dismal failure. Hon. J. II. Clark, OF
Youngstown, was billed to address the
meeting. At Z o'clock the city band
paraded some OF the principal streets,
and finally wound up at the opera house.
The band played couple OF lively airs
on the stage in the presence OF about
rs people, and then Chairman Peter
Smith introduced Mr.. Clark, who began
his address by saying that the end OF
the present campaign was near at hand,
and appealed to the young men, espec-
tally those who we're Republicans, not
to commit themselves to any issues in
the struggle because they were advo-
Gated by great man. Grant was n
great man! So was Lincolnl Why?
Because the people believed that
"WhE was Wayne MCVeagh selected,
as Republican, by President Cleve-
land, as a member OF his cabinet? Now,
don't let sympathy influence you in
casting your vote next Tuesday, but
vote for your best interests"
The same strain OF wind" was kept
up for about twenty minutes, and de-
void OF enthusiasm whatever for Mr..
Meals cause, the speaker, chairman
and band adjourned without causing
the least ripple OF excitement.
After Mr.. Clark had proceeded about
five minutes with his stereotyped ha.
rangue against Republican principles
and great men OF the party, the audi
ence began to look for more comforta'
BE auArters.
