vent me from hoping for his success. As
the chosen candidate OF the Democratic
party he should have had the support of

could carry New York.

Washington, Nov. 15.-Admiral Walker
adds his testimony to that Of Gen. Miles
concerning the weakness of the govern
ment's coast defenses.
1--WE are not prepared to-day to engage
III warwith any first class power" said
he. "We are in the position China occu-
pied in her recent struggle with Japan.
We can not maintain an offensive or a
defensive attitude against any one of
half dozen countries. It is true that
New York and San Francisco are better
protected than other commercial cities,
but even they would be helpless against
the assaults of dozen powerful iron
clads. The remaining cities have no pro-
lection whatever. Congress ought to
make liberal appropriations for coast
defenses and for additional ships of war"

Chicago, Nov. 15.-Edward Dix, keeper

and killed Frank White ON a carriage

he must decline to say more than that he
thought the man shot was Clarence
White, who had been sought for months
under charge of burglarizing the resi-
dence of Norman B. Ream, we'll known
board of trade man. Dix admitted he
may have been mistaken.
His agency has for several months had
charge of the "porch climbing" cases, res
licences of several wealthy citizens hav-
ing been burglarized by the gang which
it is alleged was headed by Clarence
White, brother of the murdered man.
Clarencs was in the buggy with his broth

become celebrated, as it is asserted that

tives allowed to make arrests without
warrants.

THE KEY NOTE.
No Hope for Democracy Except
Through the Efforts Of the
Party's Silver Wing.

Washington, Nov. 15.-Senator Harris,
chairman of the executive committee of
six appointed at the Washington confer.
ence last August to organize for the cam
paign of 1896 the free silver Democrats
Of the country, has sent letter to his
colleagues, the chief feature of which is
the following:
"In the light of recent election results
there is, in my opinion, no hope of Dem
ocratic success in 1896 unless we succeed
in so organizing bimetallic Democrats as
to secure in the national con ention a
plain, distinct and unmistakable declara-
tion in favor of the free and unlimited
coinage of both silver and gold without
regard to the financial policies of any
country, and it therefore appears to me
that we should redouble our efforts to
secure such an organization"
Senator Harris colleagues are Senator
Jones, Arkansas; Senator Turpie, Indiana;
Governor Stone, Missouri; Hon. W. H,
Hinrichsen, Illinois, and Casey Young,
Tennessee.
GOT TOGETHER.
Birminham, Ala.-Populists and Re-
publicans have decided to unite in the

elections" by force if necessary, were

NO TRACE OF THE HEALER.
1t is Believed that Schlader is in a
Hiding Place Known to Hts
Friends = SOrely Disap-
pointed People.

Denver, Nov. 15.-Although it is gen.
orally believed that the whereabouts of
Francis Schlader, the "healer", is known
to his close friends in this city, the fed
eral authorities have not succeeded in
locating him.
The case against the men, who ad-
vertised to sell and send through the
mails handkerchiefs which, they claimed,
had been blessed by Schlader and would
cure all ills, has been continued until
Saturday. Meantime efforts to find
Schlader, who is wanted as witness, will
not be abated.
A great crowd of afflicted persons seek
ing treatment at the hands of the "healer,"
assembled again this morning at the resi-
dence Of ex-Alderman Fox, and many
we're sorely disappointed because he did
not resume his labors. 1t is generally
believed that Schlader is with friends not
far away and that not unlikely he has be-
gun another long fast.
DISTINCTLY RESEMBLES soHLADER.
Kansas City.-A special to the Star
from Beatrice, Neb., says: At 8 o'clock
this morning man came In over the
Union Pacific, went direct to hotel and
registered as Francis Schlader, of Denver,
in plain handwriting. He went to bed
and asked not to be called until o'clock.
The clerk says he distinctly resembles the
pictures of Schlader.
NOT THE ALLEGED HEALER.
Omaha.-A special to the Bee from
Beatrice says that the man, who regis
tered there as Francis Schlader, is not
the alleged healer who disappeared from

A COLORED MANS LUCK.
High H0nors Conferred by Democrats
On James q. Mathews at
Albany, n. Y.

NoW AUEh, N.Y. Ios - lHoIc Wbo To
joicing among the colored citizens yes.
terday over the news that James Camp.
bell Matthews, a colored resident OF AL.
bany, had been elected recorder of that
city by Democrats. The election returns
had been held back for some reason in
many of the districts, and this raised a
temporary doubt as to whether Mr..
Matthews had been really elected. The
fgrres proved, however, that he was
chosen by over 1000 majority, his COM
petitor being d white man and a Repub-
lican.
Never before in the history of the
United States has such substantial
honor been conferred on colored man
by the votes of his white fellow citizens
1t is true that in Michigan, Arkansas,
South Carolina and Massachusetts, colored
men have been raised to the bench of in
ferior courts for brief terms, but these
cases afford no parallel to the recorder
ship of the city of Albany. The posi-
tions were OF minor consequence, and the
incumbents we're elected by the votes of
colored Republicans, and not by white
Democrats.
Through. section 10 of chapter 204 of
the laws Of 1879, special powers are con-
ferred on the recorder Of Albany. He is
given the power to perform all acts and
duties that may be performed by judge
of the supreme court in chambers, in
Guiding proceedings supplementary to
execution. The recorder has the right to
sit in the court of special sessions. He
is an ex officio member of several import
ant boards, and in certain cases he acts
with the state board of canvassers in can
vassing election returns. In the event of
q riot he has authority to call out the
militia IN his jurisdiction to aid the civil
authorities in suppressing violence. It
is the first instance in which such powers
have been conferred on colored man.
