"HORNSWAGELLED."
Gov. Mckinley Now Finds He Has
Been "Played"

BY Foraker-The Ex-Governor Has a
Big Package of Revenge Up His
Sleeve and at the Proper Time IL
Will Drop Out.
A special dispatch from Cincinnati says
that there are a good many signs that
Gov. Mckinley Is beginning to under
stand he has been "hornswagelled" TO a
dangerous degree A lot of stuff about
harmony and good fellowship between
Foraker and the governor has been sent
abroad and some people believed 1t. There
is not much doubt that Mckinley him
self began to think 1t was q fact. He
knows better now and is the recipient of
practical lessons that prove what one
wishes and what one gets in politics are
very remote from each other.
Mr.. Foraker is out of politics and is
keeping in the shadows. But every time
he turns around Mckinley has chill.
Down east moro and moro each day Fora
ker's name is mentioned. The papers
there speak of him moro frequently and
there Is a studied effort made to correct
the idea that exists enormously in the
east, that Foraker is merely schemer.
In recent issue of New York paper an
article appeared which asserted that any
statement, innuendo or hint, which inti-
mated that the ex-governor is anything
but q broad-minded man, gentleman
and statesman, man of resources,
brains and education, is utterly untruth-
full
The number of letters that are coming
to this city from all over the east making
inquiries about Foraker is significant. 1t
may be denied, but 1t is fact that more
than one republican leader has written to
the ex-governor and that the Blaine men
are his friends. Reed and Foraker under
stand each other and Harrison has COM
pletely changed his opinion of Foraker
He knows now how he was deceived
about the ex-governor McKinley's
treachery In the senatorial contest has not
been forgiven or forgotten by Foraker
But he will not forget to control himself
until after the election. Then he will
under any circumstances declare against
Mckinley and fight him If it is necessary
1t is doubtful If any prominent man
talked of for the presidency receives so
much correspondence on the subject as
ex-Gov. Foraker. That fishing trip to the
wilds Of West Virginia with Tom Reed
and Elkins In the party may not be so
chimeircal as those Interested may assert
II present plans go it will come off and
the fish caught will, when the time
comes, be exhibited to the public
Foraker is another "Barkis" who "is
willin'" He has not said II want it,
nor has he made anything like an attempt
to secure appreciation But he knows the
lay of the land, and If the signs are right
next November will find him an open
candidate for the republican presidential
nomination.

VERY BOLD Hold UP.
Jules Peruond Assaulted by
Highwaymen on East
Fourth Street.
THEY SECURED NO BOOTY

Peruond Was Badly Used UP, Having
Been Struck Several Times With n
Billy-His Assailants Make Their
Escape.
There was a bold "hold-up" last night
about / 1 O'Clock, in front of John Dan
ner's office on East Tenth near Piedmont
street. A young man was walking along
Tenth street, when he was struck in the
face by an unknown party. The man as
saulted commenced to yell "flre'' "mur-
der !" and "policel" and his assailant and
partner took to their heels without
securing any booty One of the thieves
had revolver, but the sight of the weap-
on only tended to make the man yell the
louder
A number of the neighbors were
awakened, and several men started in
pursuit of the robbers, who ran down
Piedmont toward South steet Patrolmen
Hossler and McCloud Joined in the chase,
but the robbers made good their escape.
The name of the man who was assault
cd was not reported to police headquarters,
He was badly used up, his face bleeding
quite freely. Mrs. Silas Gaskell who
lives at II East Tenth street, first heard
the cries of the man for help. She rushed
to the winoow and saw the man who was
assaulted standing under tree. Shortly
afterwards she observed his assailants
running down Piedmont street. The
lady was badly frightened, as her husband
was out of the city.
Mrs. Gaskell was seen this morning by
a News-Democrat reporter. She stated
that shortly after she had retired, she
heard man walking down the street.
Mrs. Gaskell states that she is acquainted
with the footsteps of the neighbors, and
at once came to the conclusion that the
man who was coming down the street
was stranger. In an instant she heard
blow struck, and the cries for help.
STRUCK WITH A BILLY.
Among those who were early upon the
scene was Stuart Rohp, employed by
Charter Bros. He was on his way home
on East Seventh street when he heard
cries for help. Rushing to the place he
found the victim still standing in front
of John banners office.
The man gave his name as Jules Peru
ond and his residence as 10 South Plum
street. He stated to Mr.. Rohn that one
of the ASSISTANTS showed revolver under
his nose, and ordered that he throw up
his hands When he failed to comply
W tn the request, the fellow struck him
several times with billy.
Mr.. Peruond attempted to hold his as
sailant until help arrived, but was unsuC-
cessful in his efforts. Stuart Rohn and
william and Harry Archinal took part in
the chase after the highwaymen, but lost
sight of them at the Fort Wayne tracks.

UNANIMOUS CALL
Extended Rev. j. n. Field By
the Largest Baptist Church
Of Buffalo.
A SALARY OF $1,000.
Rev. andlMrs.Field Well Pleased With
the Church and People-Wil Decide
in a Week-How the Church Came to
Ask Rev. Field to be Their Pastor.

Rev and Mrs. j. n Field returned
from Buffalo last evening. Mr. Field,
when seen by News Democrat reporter,
with reference to his removal to that city,
said:
1--WE have just returned from pleasant
weeks visit in Buffalo, to which place we
were invited by committee from the
Prospect Avenue Baptist church. During
our visit we looked over the offered field,
and were decidedly pleased. 1 preached in
their church last Sunday, and later the
congregation, without one dissenting
voice, offered me the position as their pas
tor. Now, it Is entirely in my hands,
and will give decision to my congre-
cation one week from next Sunday. 1t
is a splendid opening, but how can we
leave Canton? We like the people here
and they seem to like us. 1t will be a
hard task for us to leave the many friends
which we have made in our six years
residence here"
The Prospect Avenue Baptist church of
Buffalo, is the strongest and most influ-
ential of the seventeen Baptist churches
In Buffalo. In fact, it is one of the
strongest churches in the denomination.
The salary offered Rev. Field is S4, 900
a year. Here he gets about $4,000 and
the use of the parsonage.
During Mr.. and Mrs. Fields residence
In Canton, they have made hosts of
friends, not only in their congregation,
that will be sorry to see them leave. But
1t is great compliment to so young a
man to be offered such a position, and his
friends can hardly wish but that he will
accept 1t.
1t was six years ago the first of last May
that Rev. Field took hold of our Baptist
church, and during this time 500 mem
bers have Joined the church, ana three
missions have been established. This
speaks well for Mr.. Field.
The manner in which the Buffalo con-
gregation invited Rev. Filed to visit their
city is somewhat singular A commit
tee of two, one the superintendent of the
Buffalo schools, was sent out by the
church to secretly visit the Baptist
churches of the country and when they
heard man that would suit them, to
invite him to go to their church and
preach.
Two weeks ago last Sunday evening,
these men, unbeknown to both the local
congregation and pastor, visited the church
of this city and heard Rev. Fields SER
mon. They were SO well pleased that i'm.
mediately after the services they made
themselves known and accompanied Mr..
and Mrs. Field to the parsonage, where,
after couple Of hours use of their per-
ausive powers, they induced the pastor
and his wife to visit Buffalo.
From Rev. Fields talk this morning,
1t is very likely that he will decide in go,
ing to the offered field

had been left in closet was missing The
money belonged to Mr.. and Mrs. Smith and
had been saved to meet payment Some ofthe
neighbors saw man enter the side gate, but
paid no attention to him. Whoever took the
money must have been well acquainted with
the premises, asnothing else in the house was
disturbed. The theft was reported to the police,
Some two years ago Mr.. Smith lost a pocket
book containing quite a sum of money, while
driving on Navarro street.

A CONTRACTORS OARELEssNEss.

Mrs. Peter Blank, with her two chill
dren and her sister, Miss Mary Stucker,
met with bad accident on North Mar
ket street Tuesday evening. They were
returning from the funeral of Barney
Halters' child in phaeton, and in front
Of the Zeb Davis place, contractor Dun
bar, with a lot of men, were laying up a
stone wall along the side of the hill. They
were using a derrick and had oarelessly
stretched stay rope across the street.
just as the ladies were driving past, a
stone was taken of the tackle, and the
rope dropped down and caught the buggy
top. 1t tore IL completely of, and threw
the occupants out backward into the
street. All were bruised up, and the
phaeton damaged about $50 worth.
