The Stark County Democrat. [volume] (Canton, Ohio) 1833-1912, 1895-03-07

1t seems to me that the recent Jail delivery
was about as careless and negligent bit of
business as has taken place in a long time.
The idea of deputy sheriff allowing prison.
ers to roam around in cells that are unlocked.
The sheriff knew that he had some desperate
characters on his hands and he ought to have
been exceedingly cautious. Instead of caution
the deputy is entrusted with the care of the
men and the deputy "forgets" to lock the cell
doors. The result of this forget, this neglect
of duty, was Jail delivery and men whom the
county had spent money to secure and convict
are at liberty, ready to prey upon other inno-
cent citizens. In my talks with people there
is great deal of criticism on Sheriff Doll, and
the opinion is fully expressed that deputy
who is SO forgetful of his dutJ rs not to lock
the cell doors in the Jail, needs prolonged
vacation.
Sheriff Doll is the man. 1 believe, who.asxed
Gov. Mckinley TO send troops to Massillon to
subdue the miners there. The sheriff had
better ask the governor for troops to guard the
Jail and keep the prisoners from escaping.

The talk of a new hotel for Canton, on the
site of the Hurford house, should be encour-
aged in every way possible. The location is
fine and besides Canton needs large and
commodious and finely appointed hotel. This
city is great place for summer conventions;
the city is handsome when in summer garb
and the nearness of several lakes makes it
very inviting and attractive place for visitors.
Besides look at our possibilities for having
presidential candidate. If Governor Nc
Kinley should be the candidate our city
would be the mecca for hundreds
of prominent men. In such event our present
hotels could not accommodate the rush. A
good and elegant hotel adds very mnch to the
reputation of city. Visitors and travelling
men do not go away "cussing' their accom-
modatiOns. do not mean to say that such ia
the case now, far from it, for we care for
visitors and travelling men better than the ma
iority of cities Of this SIZE yet Canton ought to
do better than the majority. We want to lead.
The easiest way to get new hotel is to form
stock company, with shares of 500 each, and
i guarantee that Canton has enough public
spirited men who would put in 500 to erect
magnificent hotel. This is good idea-who
will push it along2 WEBB.

ONE KILLED AT PITTSBURG
A TRoLLEY-CAR Run Down BY AN
EASTERN EXPRESS.

PrrTsBURG, Feb. ia wreck occurred
tonight at 10 o'clock at Rankin crossing
between the Eastern express on the Balti-
more and Ohio Railroad and trolley-car
on the Braddock and Rankin branch of
the Secondavenue electric line, which re-
suited in the death of Miss Anna Kuesne
and the severe injury of William Jones,
both passengers on the electrician.
The Baltimore and Ohio train was an
hour late and was coming at a high rate OF
speed just as the trolley-car approached
the crossing. When the motorman and
conductor saw the collision was inevitable
they told the passengers to jump for their
lives.
There were twelve passengers, all of
whom succeeded in getting off except Miss
Kuesne. She failed to get off because she
could not understand English and did not
know the danger she was in. The car was
struck fairly in the center and was reduced
to kindling-wood Miss Kuesnes head
was cut entirely off and her body horribly
mutilated. William Jones had his arm
crushed and head badly cut. All the other
passengers were bruised or slightly cut by
flying pieces of wreck.

Destruction.
DENVER, Feb. 17.-Melancholia and con-
sumption compelled George H. Wilkins to
kill himself in a pathetic and sensational
manner this afternoon while calling upon
the young lady to whom he was engaged,
Miss Olive Potter.
He drew a revolver and after saying that
he was convinced that recovery was i'm
possible, attempted to kill himself. The
young woman by force prevented him
earring out his design, and thinking to allay
his excited condition, suggested that they
go for walk, to which Wilkinson agreed
Passing the house where the young man
boarded he excused himself to run in and
get an overcoat, leaving Miss Potter at the
gate. Reaching his room he sent bullet
crashing through his brain. His sweet
heart hearing the report of the pistol
reached him just as he was dying.
Wilkinson came to Denver for his health
from Cleveland, Ohio, where his mother
and brother reside, about five years ago.
He was q years of age and was soon to
have been married. Both Wilkinson and
Miss Potter stood well in social circles.

CHICAGO, Feb. IA special to the Inter
Ocean from Pittsburg says: According to
Judge J F. Slagle of the Allegheny County
bench the United States Government has
taken a hand in the intended execution of
w. r. Seward, the American implicated in
the Hawaiian revolution. Slagle and
Seward are brothers-in-law. The former
returned from Washington to-day, where
he went to interest Secretary Gresham in
the case. After hearing Slagle the Secre-
tary telegraphed a message to Vancouver
to catch the steamer leaving that place for
Honolulu.
He informed Judge Slagle that if Seward
is not executed before the steamer arrives
President Dole will order stay of execu-
ton until the case can be more fully in
vestigated. Judge Slagle said:
"In addition to calling on Secretary
Gresham and Minister Thurston, saw
Senators Hawley, Allison and Platt of Con-
necticut, Perkins and Butler. Hawley was
Major Seward s chief of staff and is glad to
aid him. An address to President Dole
was prepared and signed by the United
States Senators. | am satisfied it will
have considerable weight, as the Hawaiian
Government wants the good will of the
American people"

WASHINGTON, Feb. 1.-THE rush of the

UBLE is BREWING.
Mohamntedans Are Being Worked Up
against Europeans.

LONDON, Feb. 1.-THE correspondent of
the Times at Cairo says there IS reason to
believe that the Khedive is determined to
get rid of the Ministry of Nubar Pasha
and to render i'm possible any Ministry
similarly inclined to work AMIGA bly, and
Loyalty with the British representatives..
Attempts are being made to stimulate
anti-European feelings among the Moham-
medans Warnings have been received,
even from native sources, by various
Europeans that trouble is brewing and the
month of Ramaden, beginning next week,
is anticipated with apprehensions.
When the authors of infiammatory
articles are constantly seen haunting the
khedive's ante-chamber, the ignorance of
the Oriental masses naturally assum
that they have assurances of official sane
ton for words and deeds OF violence.
Commenting on the foreign situation, the
Times in a leader warns the Khedive that
such intrigues cannot safely be carried be-
yond certain point especially when they
are accompanied by premonitory symp-
toms OF disturbances. which few years

WHISKY TRUST

INDEBTEDNESS.
A SALE MAY OCCUR SOON.
THE OLD DIRECTORS WILL BE
LEFT OUT IN THE COLD BY
THE BOARD.

CHICAGO Feb. lit is stated that plans
for getting the whisky trust on its feet
have been practically agreed upon by the
stockholders reorganization committee.
Every effort is being made to keep the
terms secret until an address to stockhold-
ers can be prepared. Three members of
the reorganization committee = R. D.
Hartshorne. and S. G. Rice of New York
and W. d. Hutton of Cincinnati, are in
conference with Receivers McNulta, Mitch
ell and Lawrence.
1t is said the concern is in excellent con-
dition and no difficulty will be experienced
In raising the money necessary to get it
out of the hands of the receivers. Instead
OF pressing Indebtedness of 81 900 900 or
more, as Judge Grosscup was led to be-
Heve existed, the receivers discovered that
the company owed only little more than
100000 in the form of rebate vouchers and
$4,000 of these has been forfeited. The
remaining $3.50, 900 is not due in a lump
sum, but natures in small amounts from
day to day and can readily be met without
sacrificing any of the assets of the COM
pany.
1t was discovered that the trust had
eAAAiiOSt P-OOIOOO SdSH III tuS Ddllh, WHICH
could be used for the payment of debts.
The business, however, requires reserve
capital of that amount, for in lively times
from $4,000 to $4,000 day is paid to the
Internal Revenue Collector in getting
spirits out of bond. The trust owed only a
small amount, as the managers have paid
cash for all supplies bought.
The plan which will probably be adopted
is said to force judicial sale of the prop
erty and buy it in. 1t is thought that
stockholders will favor the plan because it
would get the company away from the
receivers and restore it to managers
friendly to those holding its securities.
One feature of the plan is said to be to dis
pense with Mr.. Greenhut
Mr.. Hartshorne would not talk about the
intentions of the committee further than
to say that any plan that might be adopted
would include the retirement of 81, 900, 900

HOMA CITY.
ELEVEN PERSONS INJURED
MIsINTERPRETATIo OF THE ENGI
NEER's ORDERS CAUSED THE
ACCIDENT.

GUTHRIE, o. t., Feb. 1.-THE Texas ex-
press and through cattle-train on the
Santa Fe collided in Dead Mans Cut, five
miles south of here, at midnight Saturday
night. The freight was coming around a
short curve, so neither headlight could be
seen until within thirty feet of each other.
The passenger engineer jumped and saved
his life, as did the freight fireman. Freight
Engineer Charles Upleby jumped, but his
head struck the rocky side of the cut and
he was killed. Passenger Fireman Patrick
Coldron was caught in the cab and scalded
SO badly he died this morning. Both en-
gines, baggage and mailcars and half a
dozen freightcars were demolished.
Seventy head of stock were killed. The
passenger coaches did not leave the
track and no passenger was badly injured.
The injured are:
James Norman, freight conductor, left
arm broken.
Edward Kitchen, passenger conductor,
hand mashed and body badly bruised.
Messenger r. B. beagle, body badly
bruised
Baggageman George Neville, scalded.
Mail Clerk Hutchins. head cut.
Roadmaster Mckinney, bruised.
E. Bridgeman, John J. English and II.

cut in the neck and face.
A. H. Hahn, fireman on freight, leg
mashed.
A. j. Graves, freight brakeman, sprained
arm.
L. B. Weidenheimer, cuts on face and
body.
The wreck will not be cleared so trains
can go through until tomorrow. The
wreck was caused by a misinterpretation
of orders by the freight engineer, who
thought he was to pass the passenger at
Guthrie instead of at Seward, two miles
south of the wreck.

THE0SOPHY AND LAW.
DR.. jerome A. Anderson Lectures on
Their Relations.


Their Relations.
DR.. Jerome A. Anderson, member of the
late Board of Freeholders, delivered an
address on Government From a Theo-
sophical Point of View" before the Theo.
sophical Society last evening. He said
That all governments as they now exist are
only for the purpose of suppressing crime
by violent means. He believed that govern
ment in the beginning in this world was
of divine origin, but since the time of
Adam and Eve has degenerated. Theoso-
ply will assist in the divine evolution Of
man, overcome the lower passions and
help to make citizens better, and all of this
is now neglected by the governments.
osophy, he claimed, would teach
men that they have the divine spark in
them and restore them to the condition in
this world that they were in before they
left the Garden of Eden. They must re-
member that they had been here before
and would again and must live up to the
belief that the work they do now is for
their own good in future returns to this
earth through incarnation. In time, he
said, we should be once more fit to be
governed by such just divine kings as we
had on entering on this circle of our
evolution.

=HEELMENS CONVENTION.
Buttonholing and Schen,ing Going On, In
Netc York.

New YORK, Feb. 17.-There was almost
as much lobbying, interviewing and but
tonholing in the parors and corridors of
the Grand Union Hotel as might be wit
messed in any political gathering during
the busy hours preceding a convention.
The lobbyists were the delegates to the
seventy fourth annual meeting of the
League of American Wheelmen, which
will convene tomorrow morning. They
have some minor differences, but the ad-
vancement of cycling is their chief con-
Germ.
Between Massachusetts, and New Jersey
there is wide difference. Each wants the
annual meeting OF the L. A. w, and the
/ representatives of th .se two Eastern States
are striving by every way to secure it.
Massachusetts, is willing to concede and
give up anything and everything, swap
and trade every advantage or power
which they may have for the privilege OF
holding the next annual meet under their
auspices.
New Jersey is anxious to do as much
and more if possible. Agents from other
States are not safe from the arguments of
the hustling representa- tives of Massachu-
sets and New Jersey. The Massachusetts,
representatives have photographs OF the
principal points of interest in and around
Boston in their hotel parlors, and the West
and Southwest must stand, view and
admire.
The New Jersey men are deep in the
Photographic business also. Thew have a
thousand views OF many pretty spots in
their State; but their particular argument
is that Asbury Park is within a few miles
of New York. Asbury Park presents
another strong claim in the shape of pc
tition signed by 200 well-known racing
men, ranking from Zimmerman down.
Some time ago it looked as if there might
be many candidates for the different Of
fees of the league. Now, however. the re.
suit of the election is regarded as fore
gone conclusion. The friends of Archie C.
Williston of Cumberland, Md, say he can
not be beaten for the presidency.
A. Morganthaler of Ohio is the only cam
didate for the treasurership in the field.
and George O. Gideon of Philadelphia. it
is believed, will be the next chairman of
the racing board
OF all the amendments to the constitu-
ton, the most important that will be pro-
posed will be that of barring colored men
from the league. There are amendments
by the score, hut none so interesting as
this The league has at least two DAYS
hard work before it.
The delegates to the convention have
nearly all arrived and are quartered within

COST OF BRooKLYNs STRIKE.
Three Million Dollars VIII Hardin Coye,.
the Loss.

BROOKLYN, Feb. 1.-THE trollsy strike.
which has lasted thirty-four days has cost
an enormous amount of money. Three
million dollars is considered by those in
volved a moderate estimate. When the
strike started it was stated that District
Assembly rs had from $4,000 to $50, 900 in
its treasury. About $65, 900 was subscribed
by sympathizers. All that has been spent
and the $3.50, 600 wages the men would have
earned have been lost.
The Brooklyn Heights company was the
heaviest loser among the roads. 1t is esti-
mated to have lost directly 100000. The
other systems have lost close to $500. 900.
The cost of the city and State troops is ex-
pected to exceed $4,000. The damage
done by cars manned by inexperienced men
is placed at 100000 more, and the loss in
earnings by the militia during their stay in
Brooklyn is conservatively estimated at
$3.50, 900. There were many other losses to
swell the amount, in addition to the incon-
venience and suffering caused by the big
strike.
