When a box car on an east-bound
Baltimore and Ohio freight train was
opened at Fostoria, Ohio, last Saturday,
Henry Reesh and Arthur E. Brown
were found dead and Henry Harris
fatally wounded. All lived in Au-
burn, Ind. They were beating their
way on the train. Harris said four
men got on the car at Deshler and de-
manded the money of himself and his
companions. They resisted and
fight ensued. The robbers used pistols,
and after shooting the three men rob-
bed them and left the car.

Went to Scott, Remained to Pray.

The colored Baptists have recently
been holding "big meeting" in this
place. The singing was so good and
the exhortations so earnest that some
young white men found the services
quite entertaining and frequently at
tended church from motives other than
strictly spiritual enjoyment. The
other night, however, the preacher
threw a bombshell among them. he
called on several of them to offer up
a prayer. One faced the music and
sent up petition to the throne OF
grace as best he could; but the others
incontinently fed. None of them has
attended the meetings since.

ALBANY. n. Y, Oct. A7.-The tour of
Gov. Mckinley this morning was through
the lovely valley of the Mohawk TWAS
not O'Clock when the special train drew
into Little Falls. but the town was astir
and the booming OF . cannon summoned
the people 10 the depot, where the gov
ernor spoke from q stand covered with
decorations. There were not less than
2, 500 men in the audience.
Mr.. Mckinley had special speech for
the operators from Gloversville. ''When
We prepared the tariff Law of $780," he
said. I'VE put tariff on imported gloves,
knowing that We would thereby secure for
you steady employment at good wages. l
ask you now whether the tariff aid not &C
complish this7" A chorus of Yes" was
the answer. At Amsterdam over 5000
people greeted the governor.
At Schenectady not less than ZOO peo-
pie gathered about the platform of the car
and listened to . talk on the tariff. In
closing he said:
81 see that Mr.. Hill says business Is re-
Stunning in this country since the passage
of the tariff Law of 1894 Every man in
this audience knows whether business has
resumed. and. if it has resumed. upon
what conditions that resumption has
taken place. If we have had any resump-
ton. and | hope We have had it. l submit
thar the resumption was had on lower
plane, with conditions of lower wages and
lower prices for American products. Is
not that sol" iCries of YES. yes."l
Speaking from his car platform at
Poughkeepsie, Gov. Mckinley replied TO
Vice President Stevenson, who spoke
there on Friday night He insisted that
the revenue arising from the Mckinley
tariff law was sufficient to meet all ex-
penses of the government aud paw all
pensions, until the election of the new
party candidates having different policy
TO put into effect.
Upon his arrival in this city the gov
ernor addressed two immense audiences of
workingmen, and in addition delivered an
outdoor address to an overflow meeting.
Mckinley's reference to Cleveland as "a
peace man in war. and q war man in
peace" brought the house down. The
Democrats say: Bad as our tariff law is,
II is better than the Law of 1890 Better
for whom?" A voice: Better for En-
