CANTON, O., Oct. 22.-This was a busy
day for the Republican candidate, and quite
unexpected, too. Only two delegations of
visitors had been booked for arrival, but
six came, and most of them were large.
They were mainly composed of Ohioans
but great many people came from north
ern Indiana, and there were also some from
West Virginia and Pennsylvania. A large
number of the pilgrims came from places
that had been visited by Mr.. Bryan, and
they all united in saying that the Popo-
Gratis tour had made no votes for him.
The streets to-day were crowded, on the
big Saturday jubilees. The escort commit
tee had not provided for such an outpour-
ing of people, but the crowds were well or
dered. Women marched in line in great
numbers. Major Mckinley aptly termed
this 'Ohio day" as he could well do from
the outpouring of Buckeye people. With
one party there were hundreds of students
from Baldwin University and Wallace Col
lege. of Berea, who made the welkin ring
with yells These people were from the ex-
treme northern part of the State. Thou
sands of people came from the distant river
counties of the State, in company with hum
dreds of their West Virginia friends across
the river. Valparaiso, Fort Wayne Ply
mouth and dozen other northern Indiana
towns swelled the crowds in the evening
with a Hoosier yell. Major Mckinley gave
greeting to the City Council and afficials of
New Brighton. Pa, in his library. The
Major had strawberries and cream with his
speeches to-day. They came from the sec
ond crop in Belmont county, Ohio, and the
visitors brought plenty of cream with
them.

FIGHT WITH NEGROES.
Two Killed and Four Wounded by a
Lumber Mill Manager.

CHIPLEY, Fla, Oct. 22.-Besieged by in
furiated negroes, James Criglar, manager
of Hagerman's lumber mills, at Hagers
Station, four miles west of here defended
himself with such effect that he killed two
of his assailants and wounded four others.
Criglar became engaged in a quarrel with
one of his employees. and the other negroes
drew pistols and began firing at the mana
ger. Criglar ran to his office, locked him
self in and opened fire with a Winchester
on the maddened negroes, who surrounded
the building. For an hour the fight con-
tinued, and when the Louisville & Nashville
train arrived at the station the negroes
were preparing to set fire to the building
and burn Criglar. The train crew and pas
sengers, however, rushed to Criglars aid
and dispersed the negroes. The negroes had
fired over two hundred bullets into the
building, but CrigIar escaped by lying on
the floor. AS soon as the negroes fired
volley, however, he would rise and shoot at
them through the windows. The negroes
killed are Amos Judson and John Alexan-
der. The wounded are Henry Simpson,
Jack Nobels Andrew Miller and Albert
Lester. Simpson and Lester are thought to
be fatally wounded.

SPEAKER AT THE CLOSE.
Notable Speech by the Secretary ON
the Attitude of SOund-Moncy Dcmo-
Gratis and the Financial Question.

COVINGTON, KY, Oct. 22.-Secretary OF
the Treasury. Hon. John G.. Carlisle. made
the first of his series of Kentucky speeches
here tonight at Odd Fellows Hall. which
was crowded to its utmost capacity. Mr..
Carlisle was received with most generous
and hearty applause when he appeared on
the stage. This was followed by vociferous
cheers for Bryan from about one hundred
men forming a line in the standing room
at the rear of the hall. This continued
for some time after Secretary Carlisle be-
gan to speak completely drowning his voice
so those nearest him on the stage
could not hear his words. At the same time
a crowd occupied the street and rent the
air with shouts for Bryan. This continued
at frequent intervals during the entire
speaking. Now and then a man on the
outside would shout: Carlisle, the trait
orr Once after Mr.. Carlisle began his
speech he stopped and begged the turbulent
crowd to leave the hall. The disturbers did
not leave, but they interrupted him after

tible effort was made TO stop the dis
turbance
While Mr.. Carlisle was interrupted CON-
tinuously during his speech and eggs were
thrown about the hall. four being thrown
upon the stage. The most disorderly scene
was at the close of the meeting, when
hoodlums gathered about the exit with in
sulting remarks. There were many noisy
people on the street, and in such spirit as
to threaten violence as well as insult to the
Secretary. The authorities had not taken
radical action to prevent disturbance up to
this time, but after the meeting the Mayor
and chief of police promptly furnished a
detachment of twenty police, who safely
and quietly escorted Secretary Carlisle to
the residence of Mr.. Frank Helm.
Secretary Carlisle disturbed and
showed his annoyance over the yelling at
the opening of the meeting, but he did not
know that any eggs had been thrown until
after the meeting was over, although one
of the eggs struck the center chandelier.
He was intensely in earnest in his argu-
ment, and held his audience in close atten-
ton. He was unconscious OF the bowling
elements outside of the hall, and him.
self surprised at the calling of a detach-
ment of police to escort him to Mr. Helms
residence. He will speak at Bowling Green
Saturday night and at other points in
Kentucky next week, when, 1t is feared, he
will encounter disturbances.

THE YONKERS MYSTERY
MURDERER OF HAMLIN j. ANDRUS
NOT YET DISCOVERED.
Evidence that the Bomb Was Ex-
pioded with the Aid of Wires
and Electric Batteries.

NEW YORK, Oct. 22.-There seems no
longer any room for doubt as to the cir
cumstances attending the death of Hamlin
J.. Andrus, who was blown to pieces in
the office of the Arlington Chemical Com
pany, of Yonkers, of which he was secre-
tary, yesterday morning. All the circum-
stances point to murder. Tonight Coroner
Miles stated that thirty feet of wire had
been taken from under the building in
which the explosion of the bomb had
Cured and, in addition four dry cell bat
teries had been found in or near the build
ing, just where he would not say. The wire
stretched under the floor of the office
building and ran to a point directly beneath
where stood the box which is believed to
have contained the bomb. To what point
outside of the building the wires were con-
Quoted has not yet been divulged. 1t is
said. however, that the wires were found
cut line with the outer walls of the
building. This in itself involves a mystery
that seems at present inexplicable.
Notwithstanding the discovery of the
wires. the battery and the other parapher-
MALTA that SO strongly indicates the hand
of the assassin there are some people now
engaged in the investigation of the affair
who believe still that Andrus met his death
as a result of his own experiments. The
police are at present inclined to stand mere
ly between the two theories for they have
placed some reliance in the story told by
Kelley employe, that he had seen Mr..
Andrus going into the Office with a small
parcel, which might possibly have con-
tanned the bomb The parcel story is de-
MED, however, by Mr. Andruss son. who
accompanied him to his Office on that fatal
morning.
Coroner Miles, who has disagreed con sid
erably with the police, stated tonight that
in his opinion the bomb was suspended by
a string from the bottom of the shelf desk
at which Mr.. Andrus was accustomed to
stand; that the wires run from an
unoccupied building situated some distance
from the Office up through the floor to the
bottom of the desk; that they would rest
closely against the string and that when
the current turned on the string
was burned off and the bomb released.
1t is still believed by many that the bomb
was intended for John Andrus, president
of the company and brother of the man
who was killed. for while the latter was ex-
tremely popular the former is said not to
have established himself warmly in the
hearts of the people. In view of the de-
velopmentS of to-day the inquest which
was to have been held tomorrow has been
postponed for a week.
Chief Mangin, of the Yonkers police,
said to-day that Mr.. Andrus had not
been killed by Anarchists, nor was his
death the result of any plot. as at first sup
posed The chief, after careful investiga-
ton, has come to the conclusion that Mr.
Andrus met his death while experimenting
with a machine which he intended to use
on the safe in his office to kill burglars,
should they attempt to rob the safe.

The DauntIess Seized.

JACKSONVILLE. Fla, Oct. 22.--The tug
Dauntless, seized by the cruiser Raleigh
off New Smyrna yesterday and which
brought to the st. Johns bar under the
escort of the Raleigh did not come up to
this city to-day, although the revenue cut
ter Boutwell, went down to escort it up.
The reason was that the State health
board had stepped in and ordered that the
Dauntless go into quarantine at Fernan-
dina. This is because the captain of the
Dauntless will not swear that he did not
go beyond a certain line during the re-
cent trip. In the meantime the collector of
customs has telegraphed to Washington for
instructions, and the boat is being held at
Mayport pending the receipt of reply.
The Raleigh went south last night after
escorting the DauntlesS to the mouth of
the river, and when the steamer r. l.. Ma
brey went out from Mosquito inlet at New
Smyrna early this morning the latter was
signaled to come alongside of the Raleigh.
This it did, and search made. Moth
ing but coal was found on the Mabrey. The
Raleigh then steamed south and the
Mabrey headed north. 1t had not arrived
here IN to a late hour tonight. The gov
