Marie Gagnon's Leap.

The first girl to make the terrible leap
from the fourth floor 10 the warehouse roof
was Marie Gagnon, who was picked up in
an insensible condition with her neck
broken. She cannot live many hours.
SO far as the firemen have been able to
prose cute their search in the ruins, no
bodies have yet been discovered.
Several Of the women who escaped with
slight injuries say the scene on the fourth
floor was beyond description. When the
first wild rush for the stairway occurred
the passage was so solidly packed that
many tainted and fell under the feet OF
the frenzied crowd. Then a mad rush
wa made 10 the windows.
But the crowd forgot about the heavy
Iron screens which guarded that means OF
egress. Frantic women tore their hands
beating against the cruel distractions,
but they we're too strong for their feeble
blows. Death seemed inevitable until
Marie Gagnon found "a window that
yielded TO the determined blows Of those
who could get their united efforts TO bean
on 1t. This window overlooked an OK
teifsfye ene-story warehouse. without a
moments hesitation the unfortunate
woman leaped into the air and landed on
the ROOF below.

That Harrison is
Against Him.
FORAKER AGAINST THE GOV.

So Is Platt While Quay is Not Anxious
For Him-McKinIey's Friends See
That the Only Way He Can Win is to
Down Foraker.
olumbus, Ohio, September 29.-The
reception of General John G. News inter
view in this city created q distinct sensa-
ton in republican circles. There is but
one opinion among the leaders, and 1t is
that Harrison has withdrawn because of
the triumphs of Quay in Pennsylvania and
Platt in New York. Knowing their hos
tility and paalizing that 1t would be i'm
possible to win in the national conyen-
ton, he has accepted the inevitable and
succumed to fate. The fling Of General
New at Reed and Mckinley has. had an
elevating effect on the Forakerites, who
are solidly for Reed and as sOlidly against
Mckinley, all declarations to the contrary
Notwithstanding. One of the leaders,
whose name is reserved, said: Mckinley
will never be nominated and know 1t.
| Quay Is not for him, and Foraker Is not
| for him. What's the use Of all this ID
nonsense that has been going on for three
weeks? 1t hasn't fooled o single friend
of Mckinley, and he's alive to the real
situation. There Is only one way that he
can be nominated, and that is to have the
democracy beat Foraker and Bushnell.
We will elect Bushnell sure, but the legis'
lature is doubtful"
This is the real pith Of the situation SC
far as Reed and Foraker are concerned

Hon John f. Clarke, Hon. L, T, Neal.
Hon. Joseph H. Cultivate and Hon.
John d. Follett.
The address of Ex-Governor Camp
bell, the principal speaker, was mainly
devoted to state issues and industrial
matters. The Ex-Governor gave George
b. Cox Of Cincinnati severe castiga'
tion in his speech, saying that the
GAINESVILLE convention was under this
mans control and that he would not
only be king Of Ohio, if Republicans
were successful, but the colleague Of
the honored Sherman in the United
States senate. He also accused the
two last neral assemblies OF iniqulty
and bribery.
He then detailed at length the great
evidences Of returned prosperity IN the
United States and then said:
'In the face of all this, the Repub'
hcan nominee for senator said, in his
Springfield speech: To begin with, the
whole subject of the tariff will have to
be revised on protection lines We are

The Fourth Ward club, Of Columbus,
bore transparency saying: "Give Us

of the Capital city, made very fine dis
play in the parade as did also the jack

OF the KilbOurne g. Jacobs Company, Of
this city, there were more than 800 men
in the parade. They were an enthusiastic
crowd, and attracted much attention. A
part of their representation were two
large wagons, bearing transparencies in
the form of pavillions on wheels. One OF
these transparencies read: 1.-THE Last
Legislature was the Worst in Fifty Years
The Next will be Dem ocratic;" another
OF these transparenCies announced: 1--WE

Anthracite coal is dCarCr today than 1t

All advices tend to show that before

The consumer understands plainly that
in this particular case he pays the tariff,
whether 1t be in the form of the desired
increase in wages, or the losses to be
made up by a lockout, and demand
that far exceeds the supply.

which had existed between pastor and

adopt the text as a life motto, saying men
may come and may go, but the gospel OF
Christ will continue TO save and redeem
the fallen. And, therefore, he asked the
church to support his successor in the
work and hold up his hands, when they
should become weary.

A REVIEW

OF Some of the Notable Features and
Transparencies.
Columbus, Ohio, September 29.-To
the procession was added a live camel.
1t was from the Cincinnati geological
garden, and was secured by Sheriff James
Ross, of Columbus through the instru-
mentality of Mr.. Ed. Miller formerly of
this city, and now citizen of Cincinnati.
The appearance Of the camel on the soone
Just as the parade was forming was
greeted with tremendous ap lause. The
animal was brought up by Adam Fisher,
an attaohe Of the Zoo, and was ridden in
the parade by franklin Openlender, a
student in the State University law de-
partment. The camel behaved very nice
ly all along the line of march, and re-
oeived an ovation that made him seem
very happy.
1t was n very prominent place in the
procession that the animal occupied. Just
behind the grand marshal and the car
riages conveying the reception committee
and the speakers it was led by the atten-
dant. When the procession once moved
and the spectators got a good view Of it,
every one, regardless of party affiliations,
pronounced 1t the largest they had ever
seen. The marching democrats were 50
numerous that one on the others neels
nearly trod.
Among the most notable organizations
in point of appearance was the Duck
worth club, of Cincinnati, with their
handsome uniforms and large turn out.
The celebrated Randall club, of Pitts
burg, Penn, in becoming uniforms and
500 strong in membership, cut q very con-
spiCuous figure. The little town of Ada,
Ohio alone contributed more than 400
men in the parade. Clark county and
the city of Springfield had magnificent
representation One of the Clark county
clubs carried transparency which read:

Another club from the home of the re-

A notable feature Of the transparencies
were repea ed declarations against Cox
and Foraker. One of them portrayed the
size Of Bushnell by having his name in
letters so small as to be scarcely discern
ible, while those of the Cincinnati boss
and his patron saint appeared in flaming
display. The delegation from Shelby
