RECEPTION TO SENATOR JONES
Bryan Was Defeated. He Says,
Through the Changes of the Last
Days of the Campaign.

HoPE, ARK, Nov. "a public reception
was given to United States Senator James X.
Jones, chairman of the national democratic
committee, at the opera house in this place,
today.
The reception was arranged for the purpose
of allowing the Senator's friends and neigh
bors to show their appreciation of his work IN
the recent campaign.
People came into town from all over Hemp
stead county to welcome the Senator, and the
little opera house was packed, many ladies
and children being present.
The Senator spoke for an hour or more on
the campaign and the obstacles that had TO
be met. He said the result was a victory for
the Democratic party; that while it had lost
the election it had not lost the fight The
cause of silver was stronger today than it was
when the campaign opened, he declared, and
victory was assured in 1900.
He paid high tribute to Hon. VIM. ].
Bryan, and said Mr.. Bryan had made one of
the most wonderful fights that had ever been
made by any leader. A large number Of
commercial orders placed previous to election
day and contingent upon McKinley's election,
he stated, had been made use of in influence
ing the votes of workingmen and had caused
thousands of Bryan men TO vote for Mckinley.
Bryan lost the election. he declared, by the
changes made during the last three days of
the campaign.
The Senator's remarks elected great APP
plause. His farmer friends were out in force
and many Populists and Republicans were in
the audience. He will remain here several
days before leaving for Washington.

Mr.. worthington's Views.

Mr. Glenn II. Worthington, prominent
and well-known Democrat of Frederick, gave
to News representative the following views
of the election:
Concerning the election will say that the
examination and discussion of the money
question during the recent campaign has so
educated the people in public financial affairs
that they are now able to follow intelligently
the course of the government in regard thereto.
During the next four years the existing gold
standard will be put to the test under the
scrutiny of the people. If that standard can
be obtained without further issue of bonds
to buy gold, and if any real, lasting prosperity
sets in under existing monetary conditions,
then bimetallism will probably pass from the
domain of party politics. Buff, on the other
hand, further issues of bonds become neces-
sary for redemption purposes, aud agricultu-
raj interests continue in so deplorable con-
dition, then bimetallism will surely be an
important issue in the next Presidential cam
paign, and cen hardly fail to be put to a prac-
teal test by the American people.
In the meantime deem it 10 be the duty
of every good citizen to lend his aid and sup
port to both the outgoing and incoming adj
ministration in furtherance of the return of
general prosperity.
| am thoroughly persuaded, however, that
the great farming interests will feel no per-
manent awakening until bimetallism becomes
part of the financial policy of the govern
ment Time will tell. !"

McKinley's Cabinet.

The newspapers are specializing upon
Mr.. McKinley's Cabinet. 1t is not at all
probable that Mr.. Mckinley has determ-
ined the personnel of his Cabinet and all
statements concerning it are purely spec
ulative.
The most ridiculous talk on the subject
is by Wellington, who is favoring James A
Gary for Postmaster General. 1t will be
remembered that Wellington, about year
ago, was for Lowndes for Vice President
and said Maryland Republicans would sup
port him in the National Convention. Well
lington was not for Lowndes then and he
is not for Gary now. He was soft soap
ing Lowndes year ago and he is doing
the same to Gary now.

The New Assessment.

The assessment IN Washington county
has been completed, and shows an increase
of about S., 900, 900. The increase is
mostly in Hagerstown, and the whole is
in the towns. There has been a slight
decrease in the assessment of farming lands.
The assessment in Carroll is not COM
pleted and will not likely be before the
middle of next month The Board of
Control and Review are at work, however,

A COMPLICATED CASE.
1t Involves Three Men, a Woman
and 1926.
From The baltimore News of Monday

From the Baltimore News of Monday.
Three years ago John p Johns was the
proprietor of large livery stables at 1910 West
North avenue. In his employ at that time
was Jacob l.. Frank, we'll known horseman.
Frank boarded with Mrs. Matte +. Houck,
1907 North Calhoun street, and when Johns
confided to him that his business was in
shaky condition and ready money was needed
proposed plan TO obtain it. Augustus Johns,
son of Johns, and who is the present proprie-
tor of the stables, was to go with Frank to his
boarding house and steal 1925 from the trunk
of Mrs. Houck. This they did and Johns
tided over his financial trouble. Mrs. Houck
soon discovered her loss and when she ques-
toned Frank learned how the money had
been stolen.
Johns and his son admitted their part in
the larceny, and promised to refund the
money if she would not make the case public.
1t was hushed up, but Johns never paid, and
Mrs. Houck claims that for the last two years
he has kept out of her way. Frank, seeing
that she was tired Of being put off and afraid
that he would be seriously implicated in the
larceny If it was made known to the police,
joined forces with Mrs. Houck in her attempts
TO obtain the money from Johns. Saturday
night both went to his home, 1877 Whateoat
street, and made last demand. Johns re-
fused and Frank sprang at him with an open
knife, and fight took place. When the men
parted Johns nose was discovered 10 be
broken, while Frank was without scratch.
Johns started to the Northwestern Station to
get warrant for Frank.
The latter followed to lay charge of lar
ceny. Lieutenant Scott was in charge and
promptly arrested both, charging them with
larceny, and placing the extra charge of as
sault against Frank. They were tried before
Justice Wood this morning. Frank was rep
resented by Lawyer r. B. Tippett, while
Lawyer William Cotton was Johns attorney.
For four hours the lawyers argued, the one
trying to prove the client of the other was
the thief, and vice versa. Lawyer Cotton
brought young Johns forward as a witness,
and Justice Wood entered him on the docket
as prisoner, charging him with aiding in the
robbery of Mrs. Houck. All three were then
committed for court, despite the arguments
and pleadings Of the attorneys. On the
charge of assault Frank prayed jury trial,
and was released on $1,000 bail, the amount
fixed in the larceny case.

our cause, and under his leadership we be-
lieve victory will be won in l900.'

In order to have enough votes To pass
measures over the vetoes of Mayor Hooper,
several defeated Republican candidates for
the Baltimore city council have contested
the seats of the successful Democratic can
didates. The Republicans only need one
vote in the First Branch, and they expect
to secure the seating of Republican from
the tenth ward Contests, however, have
been instituted in the nineteenth and
twenty second wards, but these are said
to be only blinds of fairness.
