The Big Sandy news. [volume] (Louisa, Ky.) 1885-1929, 1894-03-30

A number Of the leading silver
men Of Congress called upon Pres
ident Cleveland yesterday and
msde a powerful plea to him to
sign the Seigniorage Bill. They
spoke with great earnestness, and
no effort was made TO conceal a
feeling that the present majority
10 Congress depended upon the
Presidents signing the bill. 1t
was urged that certain sections Of
the country accused the Pres
ident Of ignoring their in
lerests. The President beard
them through and in reply
said that he regarded the question
a. one above mejoritiss in Con-
gre and above any personal or
selfish consideration. His desire
was 20 do waot was best for the
whole people, In considering the
question be had known no section.

him by Congress, and the RESPONSE

They are building monuments to

right. But what we want TO inquire
is, what's the matter with the old

who proposed to have a woodshed

NUESTRA ADMISSION.
Las Pretensiones de Joseph y sus

Con notable unanimidad todos los

sin oposicion, ell mismo Joseph Sc mos

tie aplazamiento fue hecho con miras

te Territorio Tenia la ambicion de
volver a ser electo de nuevo d la posi-
cion que ocupa y discurrio que una
palanca poderosa para conseguir sus
fines era dejar pendiente ell acto, inter
pasaba la election.
Luego que Sc vino de Washington
puso sus baterias en- accion y declare
que era necesario el triunfo de la de-
mocracia en- las elecciones de este Te-
rritorio, para conseguir que fuera ad-
mitido como estado a la Union. Esto
signifcaba que era necesario ell triunfo
del partido democratico y la reelection
de Antonio Joseph, 6 de otro modo no
habria NADIA de estado. Esta alterna-
tiva amenazadora fue presentada abier-
tamente los caudillos republicanos
por los cuales fue rechazada con indig-
nacion. Respondieron con sobrada
razon que ESQ era introducir politica
en- la question de estado y que siendo
tan necesaria la unanimidad y la con-
cordia entire ambos partidos era un ul-
traje el pretender sacar ventaja para ell
partido democratico en- referencia al
eStado.
No obstante este, el candidate de-
mocratico para delegado y los princi-
pales hombres del partido, siguen pro-
pagando en- sus discursos y periodicos
que este Territorio no sera estado en-
case de que Joseph sea denotado,
agregan que la mayoria democratica en-
el Congeso no admitira como estadc

PIGG SHOOTS LoCKARD.
Ball Passes Directly Through the
Abdomen.

SULLIVAN, Oct. -Special.-Sunday
night, about S O'clock, Swazee Lockhard
was shot and supposed to be fatally in
jured by Nathan Pigg. The two are
partners in the saloon business at Lyon
town. a small town six miles east OF this
place. The wound is in a most danger
Gus place being directly through the alb
domen and from side TO side. Pigg, after
the shooting, came to Sullivan and gave
himself up. There are two stories to the
affair. Pigg claims that he heard a noise
in the saloon, and, going to the door,
made a noise and called, asking who was
within. He did not get an answer. but
heard a man running to the door. Fear
ing an assault and thinking the person
had intentions IF robbery, ne shot
through the door. When ne saw the
person whom he had shot he found that
il was his partner.
Lockhard. it appears. lives in the coun-
try some distance from the saloon. He
claims that he went TO the sa.oon to get
some whisky for his wife, who was fl.
When he arrived there he found Plgg in
a state of intcxication. He had words
with him because Of his condition. and as
a result Pigg drew his gun and fired at
him.
The fact that Loclhard is shot from
side to side bears out mis- story and makes
1t plausible, as a shot from the front
door would doubtless have gone through
the body from the front

HILL AT BINGHAMPTON.
The Senator ArOuses Much EnthUsi-
asm by His Speech.

BTNGHAMPTON, n. Y, Oct. 12.-Sen-
ator Hill faced here tonight, for his sec
ond attack upon the republican party, an
audience equally as enthusiastic, even if
not quite as large, as that at Syracuse
last night. In 2dGition TO reiterating the
sentiments expressed at Syracuse, he
said: Il embrace this early opportunity
to express my sincere appreciation of the
loyal and cordial support which is being
given the state ticket by those who have
heretofore differed with me In regard to
inter-party affairs. especially in the rural
districts Of the state. With entire unani-
nifty those who have been generally re-
garded as the especial friends Of the ma
tiOnal administration have earnestly
wheeled into line and are performing
valiant service in behalf Of the cause
and ] should be unjust TO them as well
as unjust to myself if l did not take occa-
sion TO freely acknowledge their mag
nanimity and generous action.
"They seem to realize more keenly than
do some of our party friends in New
York and Brooklyn the absolute necessity
Of party unity in the present emergency,
involving as it does the very existence
of the democratic party itself. They are
democratic wei as reformers and be
lieVe in reformation within party lines
They realize that a republican victory in
New York will strengthen the forces Of
protection everywhere and greatly i'm
peril all that has been gained and accom-
plished during the past two years for the
cause of tariff reform

ton Of the republican majority in the
constitutional convention in refusing TO
adopt a amendment authOriZig the veter-
ans of the soldiers home to vote at gen.
eral elections.

THE GREATEST on RECORD.
Ii Is Thought That Perhaps $4,000
Was Taken.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 1S.-Local repre-
sentatives of the express company say
that the amount of booty the robbers
gained probably cannot be learned ac-
curately until tomorrow, but they incline
to the belief that $15O,000 is a large ex-
aggeration of the loss. One theory here
as to the identity Of the robbers is that
they were formerly members of some one
or other of the numerous bands of So
called "industrials' who We're attracted
to the national capital by the Coxey
movement The local police believe that
they were not professional thieves. but
were men familiar with the train service.
The demand for the manifest" they be-
lieve. indicates that at least one of them
was a railroad man.
Capt. Arthur Barnes of North Carolina,
a member of the force of the sergeant-at-
arms of the senate, was a passenger on
the held-up train. He says that the first
intimation the passengers had Of any
unusual occurrence was when the firing

leading up to the panic of '93. and pic
tured the financial distress of the country
at that time. He continued:
Bear in mind that this was the actuai
condition while the Mckinley law was
still in force, and before an arm had
been lifted by the democratic congress
to change the existing law. These are
the stubborn facts with which the re-
publican leaders are now confronted.
They cannot deny the fact that these
conditions sprang into existence under

SMOOTH WORK IN THE WEST.
A Southern Pacific Train Held Up by
Two Men.


Two Men.
SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 12.-The two
bandits who held up a Southern Pacific
overland train few miles west
of Sacramento late last night and
looted the Wells-Fargo company's
express car and secured over $50,
600 seem to have eluded the officers and
escaped with their plunder, which was
nearly all in gold coin and consequently
a heavy burden. Beyond the mere sup
position that the bandits are railway men
who have been in the employ OF the
Southern Pacific and the suppOsiton is
based only on their apparent familiarity
with railway methods and their ability to
successfully handle a locomotive, the
pursuing officials have very little to work
upon.
The astounding success of the hold-up
was not known until this afternoon
