GRAFTON, W. Va, Oct. 1.-THE Hon.
Marriott Brosius, congressman for the
Lancaster district of Pennsylvania,
spoke here tonight for two hours to an
audience OF thousand people. 1t was
the opening OF the campaign in Taylor
county for Dayton and the Republican
cause. aud it was tremendous success.
The entire seating capacity Of the floor
aud gallery of the large opera house was
occupied aud large portion OF the
standing room was taken up. More
over, that great audience remained
there until the last eloquent word had
fallen from the lips OF the speaker. Not
twenty people left before the meeting
closed. 1t was q grand tribute to the
magnificent, elevated, patriotic address
delivered by Mr.. Brosius. 1t was also
ominous as indicating the feeling Of the
people Of Taylor county on free trade
and the tearing down OF American in
dustries.
Lawyer B. F. Bailey called the meot.
ing to order and named Mr. W. q.
Byers as chairman. G. B. kefauver
presented Congressman Brosius to the
audience. Tho very opening sentence
Of Mr.. Brosius' speech was received with
cheers, which was followed up with en-
thusiastic applause and cheer after
cheer throughout his entire masterful
address. He forcibly and eloquently
portrayed the wide dividing lines be-
tween protection and free trade, and
his arguments were irresistible that for
America the system OF protection was
fundamentally vital to its prosperity
and growth. From the very foundation
Of this government the invidious, dan
gerous doctrines OF free trade have
never been seriously advanced by pub
lie men until the Democratic party re.
Gently got into power.
Mr.. Brosius took up the coal, lumber
and wool questions aud showed con-
clusiyely the beautiful effect OF free
trade to those great industries Of the
second district. He annihilated Mr..
Wilson's great fad for foreign markets
with tho simple statement that all the
civilized nations OF the world, exclusive
of the United Jtates, imported seven
thousand million dollars OF gold while
the home markets OF the country were
worth tity-fve millions OF dollars. He
then showed the utter folly OF surren.
dering this great homo market in wild
chase for those illusory foreign markets.
Mr.. Wilson was complimented by the
speaker as n gentleman worthy OF re-
spect personally, but the great free
traders tariff ideas and theories Of gov.
orrment for America were riddled un-
mercifully. Tho meeting closed with
three deafeninV cheers for Dayton-a
man Of the people and for the people.

WASHINGTON, D. O., Oct. IA sharp
diplomatic Disagreement between the
United States of Colombia and the
United States OF America has just been
brought TO close. The difference grew
out OF and has existed ever since Presi-
dent Harrison, in March. 1892. issued a
retaliatory proclamation against Colom-
bia, under the provisions Of tho Nc
Kinley act, because OF the latter's re-
fusal to negotiate a reciprocity treaty
with the United States, as has been
done by other Central and South Amer
ican countries.
Senior Hurtodo, the Brazilian minis.
ter, protested against the proclamation,
and after warm correspondence with
Secretariei Blaine and John W. Foster,
left Washington and he returned but

taliatory proclamation against Colombia
Is annuled. As a result, the strained
relations between the countries are
ended, and it is thought Senior Hurtado
will again take up his residence in
Washington.
"The retaliation proclamation en-
tirely cut off our coffee trade with this
country" said Mr.. Rengifo, "but it has
quickly revived now that the United
States gives US equal terms with other
countries"

Pendleton says two years under the Nc
Kinley law witnessed temporary pros

that factories were buildod, and that the
output for the mills and factories was
more than double that Of any other

reaction; that the markets were
flooded and that over production caused
it all. Had not court been in session

the prisoner was one OF the robbers.
He showed that every one OF the
notes had small peforations. In every
package OF money shipped by the
Adams Express Company, the notes
are stlcked together, leaving when
separated, tiny holes, which a person
could not fail to discover upon examina-
ton. Every note contained these holes
in the places where they would be made
by the person making up the money
packages.
