Debated with Clubs.

Lima, Ohio, April 23.-At a country
school debate near Winchester a fight
broke out in which Nathan Mansfield
was stabbed in the back and injured so
badly he died in a few hours, and Ed
CAROLS skull was crushed with a club.
The fight started among some Of the
smaller children, and before it was ter
minated everybody in the house was
mixed up in the affair. Eva Kratser, the
teacher, armed herself with a stick of
wood and dealt Henry Steinman a blow
over the head. Six persons besides the
two who were almost instantly killed
had to be carried home, and the greatest
excitement prevails.

TARIFF REFORM.
PRESIDENT Cleveland Says That

Promises Must He Kept.
Washington, April 23.-President Clcv.-
land has forwarded a letter to Hon.
Chauncey +. Black, president of the Ma
uonal Association of Democratic Clubs,
In which he says:
Your association has done much by
way OF educating our people touching the
particular subjects which are recognized
as belonging to the Democratic faith; but
IL seems to me that its best service has
Deen an enforcement and demonstration
of the truth that our party is best organ
lied and most powerful when it strives
for principles instead of spoils, and that
1t quickly responds to the stimulus sup
Piled by an enlistment in the peoples
cause. This acknowledgment of the inn
portant services rendered TO the advance
OF true Democracy suggests that the Ma
tional Association of Democratic Clubs
and every other eDmocratic organization
should labor increasingly and earnestly
TO save our party, in this its time of
power and responsibility, from the degra-
dation and disgrace of a failure to re-
deem the pledges upon which our fellow
countrymen entrusted us with the con-
troll of their government. All who are
charged, on behalf of the Democratic par
ty, with the redemption of these pledges,
should now be impressively reminded
that as we won our way to victory under
the banner of tariff reform, so our insist
ence upon that principle is the condition
of our retention of the peoples trust;
and that fealty to party organization de-
mAnds the subordination of individual
advantages and wishes and the putting
aside of petty and ignoble jealousies and
chickering's, when party principles and
party integrity and party existence are at
stake. l cheerfully enclose a contribution
to the funds necessary TO carry on the
good work of your organization, with a
hearty wish for its continual success and
usefulness"

RETURN FROM MILES CITY.
Stockmen Report a Very successful
Convention.

st. Paul, April 23.-W. +. Anderson,
the busy representative Of the Chicago
Union stock yards, was at the Merchants
yesterday en- route from the cattle grow
ers' meeting at Miles City, Mont, and
Dickinson, N. ID. ION account of swollen
stree ms and wet weather" he said, 'the
attendance, although large, was not us
full as expected. Visiting delegations Of
railroad, stock ya.c and live stock com
mission interests were larger than ever
before in the history of the industry.
Considering the late storms, which were,
fortunately, room dispelled by the
cEirct ks, the percentage of loss on cattle
has been comparatively light. No dead
cattle have been reported except from The
extreme southwestern part of Month IA.
So, to sum all mp, the percentage of loss
on CT tile the past season has been ex-
.ceedingly small, and the losses on sheep
have been confined chiefly to those
coused by wolves"

ployer, going to his room, found a note
from Bailey in which he said he was go-

quest that no search be made for his

many people think that he has simply
left the country and that he took this
method to avoid further trouble.
