MR.. BINKLEY'S ADDRESS.
Before the governor was introduced
President Binllley made a short ad-
dress One year ago, he said, the bu
reau of immigration had decided that
an exhibition of the fruit and other
products Of the country would prove of
great benefit. The success of the first
exhibition, held a year ago, had in
spired the present one. The fair, he
said, was intended to embrace the en-
tire inland empire, and there We're now
to be seen at this exhibition the prod
ucts Of three states. The exhibits gave
tangible evidence of the great produc-
tiveness of the country. a dozen years
ago the planting of q fruit tree in this
section was an experiment; it was now
an Investment. The bureau of immi-
grafton, he said, was much flattered
by the presence Of 50 many exhibits.
The invitations to bring exhibits had
been responded to magnificently. Spo-
kane county, fruitful as it is, could not
have put up such an exhibit unassisted.
He closed by extending a cordial vel
come to the visitors and assuring them
that nothing was too good for them.
O. r. BALLOU OF MILTON.
At the conclusion Of Governor Nc
ConnelIs address the band played an
other patriotic selection and O. r. Bal
lou, superintendent of the exhibit from
Milton, Umatilla county. Oregon, was
introduced to speak on behalf of Ore
gon.
1--WE came here" he said, Eat the
invitation of the management of this
fair, and our reception has been cor
dial indeed. We have been made to
feel SO welcome that we shall come
again. I first came here II years ago,
when Spokane was a village, and
very small village at that, and l can
scarcely realize that this magnificent
city has sprung from that little village,
situated, as we then thought, in re-
giOn that was worthless. We have
brought with us some of our products,
so that you may see what our section
is capable Of. We would like to have
you come and see us, and abide with
us. We ship a large amount of fruit
here, and hope to ship much more.
We hope to see Spokane become a city
of $4,000 or 100000 people and we don't
care how much larger, for it is our best
market and its growth will add to our
prosperity. On behalf of the people of
Umatilla county, Oregon, [ thank you
for this cordial welcome"

SPANISH MIsRULE AND BRUTALITY
High lime They should BE Driven FROM
the American Continent.

Chicago, Sept. 30.-As much of the
nopulation of Chicago as could find en-
trance to the audtoriums of Central
Music hall and the Y. NJ. c. A. buildings
tonight, shouted itself hOarse in appro-
baton Of a series Of resolutions in
which the United States government is
asked 10 recognize the Cubans as bel
ligerents. Such genuine enthusiasm
has seldom been witnessed in this city.
Mayor George 3. Swift presided at
the main meeting in Central Music
hall, while Judge William A Vincent
was chairman of the overflow meeting
in the association building. The 70
vice presidents who occupied seats on
the platforms were chosen from among
the leading business men of the CITY.
Among the kilograms from gentlemen
who could not be present was one from
Governor John p. Altgeld and it's ring
ing words called forth cheer after
cheer. 1t was as follows: ut is time
that Spanish misrule, Spanish brutality
and Spanish outrage should be driven
from the American continent We must
end these horrors or else talk less about
Christian civilization. Besides, when
viewed from a geographical and pOliti-
cal or military standpoint, Cuba should
be ours Let our country first extend
recognition, then a helping hand, and
lastly place in the Union. This done,
the richest island Of the world will soon
become the gem Of the seas"
Senator CullOm wired: THE people
of the United States sympathize with
the Cubans struggling to be free from
Spanish domination. Our government
should do everything consistent with
national honor in their behalf"
General Alger in a message said: TT
seems to me that what had been pre-
viOusly done by our government, SO
clearly defined by President Monroe,
concerning the beligerent rights Of
those countries, should now be grant
ed to Cuba"
The representatives Of various organ
izati0ns which had selected committees
to cooperate in making the meeting
a success were distributed among the
two Among these were the presidents
of committees from the following or
CARNATIONS: Loyal Legion, COnfeder-
ate AssOCia ton. Grand Army of the Re-
public, Naval Veterans, Society of the
Sons Of the Revolution, Illinois State

ganizationst Standard Club, Marquette

All of the speakers addressed both
meetings. They were Rev. d. F. Con
zalaus, w. J. Hines, Rev. ?. S. HendOn,
John Mayo Palmer Thomas B. Bryan,
William r. Mason, e. b Sherman.
When GOnzalaus de Quesada secre-
tary of the Cuban revolutionary party
Of the United States and @. A. Zayas,
another prominent Cuban, stepped up
on the platform at Central Music hall,
the enthusiasm knew no bounds and
it was some minutes before order was
restored. At this meeting Eugene
Kaueffer played for the first time in
public his new march, Cuba Libra"
introducing the Cuban national air.

Myers Walks Past Ills Open Co..
fin With Impassive Demeanor
AFTER A GOOD NIGHTS SLEEP
Speaks TO the Crowd and Gives No sign
OF Physical Weakness, stand
ing Firmly.

Pomeroy, Sept. 3O.-Funy 1000 people
saw Charles e. Myers hanged here to-
day, the first execution to take place in
this county. The scaffOld was SO built
that a view could be had only from
two sides, and every available point of
view was consequently packed TO the
utmost by anxious spectators.
Five hundred invitations, emitting
the holders to enter the yard We're out,
but only $50 took advantage Of them.
Myers rose at $50, after a sound
sleep, and partOOk of a hearty break
fast. He maintained a careless air and
spoke freely and resignedly with ref
erence to his impending fate. He re-
fused to shave or don new clothes, and
directed the sheriff to use his pleasure
in the disposal Of his body During his
last hours in Jail he refused to see any
one except the Rev Buzzell, who eX
tended religious offices.
At 10:40 the condemned man left the
jail for the scaffOld. With an impas
sive demeanor he walked past his open
coffin and up the scaffOld steps be-
tween Sheriff Baldwin Of Garfield cOun-
ty and Sheriff Warmell of AsOtin, and
faced the crowd without a tremor.
On the scaffold besides Sheriff Bald
win and deputy, were the sheriffs Of
King, AsOtiI Whitman, Snohomish and
Nez Perez counties, together with rep
resentattves of the press.
On the gallows Myers nerve was
more apparent. When the sheriff an
nounced that Myers would speak the
old man stepped forward and with
scarcely a CULVER in his voice declared
that he died as he had lived, an limo
cent man.
Close confinement and nervous ex-
element had wasted his form; his face
was pale, but composed; his weight was
apparently about 1870 pounds. After
speaking, he stepped back on the trap,
and the Rev. Buzzell delivered an elO-
quent appeal for his soul.
While the straps were being applied
to his limbs he stood firm in a military
position. There were no signs of any
physical weakness. After his hat had
been removed he again desired to
speak This time it was a prayer for
his own soul. With his long hair stirred
by the breeze, again addressing the sea
of strange faces before him, in his i'm
perfect English, he said:
May the Lord save my soul as he
will save yours, amen.
A moment more and the strap was
adjusted and the black cap cut off his
vision.
At just II the trap fell. The knot
slipped from behind the ear and he
slowly strangled to death. Eight or
ten times his chest heaved; his fingers
twitched nervOusly and at HOS the
last Pickering Of the pulse had gone
out, at which time he was pronounced
dead by the attending physicians.
The body was then cut down and
placed in the coffin without removing
the black cap, and turned over to the
sheriff, no friend being present to
claim it.
The executed man was about so years
of age and had spent the last two years
In jail.

September wheat opened at 713s to 71kc, sold to 71%c closing at 7147lMc 11slJ1Ac lower than yesterday Cash wheat was fairly steady, sales averaging from Mc lower to unchanged with. the nominal close easier.
 The corn market closed fairly steady for no particular reason than the desire of a few shorts to take profits Wheat certainly communicated no strength nor did the crop prospects September corn opened at 43c, sold down 10 42Ssc, rallied and closed at 43c: hc under yesterday Cash corn was steady to Ac per bushel lower.
 Provisons-Pork. lard and ribs were all lower today This was due to the decline in wheat and to the cheaper prices at which hogs were selling. George Phillips estimated the stocks of provisions in Chicago as fol- lows: Pork 13.0 900 barrels; lard. 100 tierces ribs. 40 0O0 eco pounds. These figures did not help prices any.
