Mckinley Tells Delegations
Protection Helps All.
Not Only Benefits the East But
West and South.
TRADE MADNESS.
He Thinks Our Present System
Is Nothing Less.
Compliments Senator Elkins
and Talks Of W. Virginia.

Canton, O., Oct Responding to
the spokesman of the Elkins invinci-
bIes of Sisterville. W. Va, and the del
egations from Tyler and Wells coun-
ties. w. Va, which called on him yes
terday, Maj. Mckinley spoke in com
plimentary terms of Senator Elkins
and after referring to the Republican
victories in West Virginia two years
ago spoke hopefully of the Republican
chances in that state in the present
contest The nominee then entered in
to a discussion of the tariff issue, in
the course of which he said:
THE way that some of your orators
used to talk that the tariff was a good
thing for the Ohio farmers and laborer
but a. positive detriment to the western
farmer and labOrers as if it could ben
eft the miner OF Pennsylvania but in
jure the miner of West Virginia: as if
the wheat and grain grower in Kansas
or the beet producer of Nebraska would
grow rich by its operations and Abe
cotton and sugar planters of Texas and
Louisiana become impoverished under
it.
Time and again you have heard
them declare that while protection
might be a good thing for New Eng
land, 1T was a curse to the west and
south. You know better now, after
having had three years and a half ex-
perience under partial free trade In
vain did Republican speakers and pa
pers demonstrate against this madness
but of no avail, and SO the people gave
it a trial With what result2 Is it not
true that partial free trade has injured
us one and all? Is it not true that par
tia1 free trade has injured every inter
est and industry in West Virginia.
Have not the people and the govern
ment grown steadily poorer under its
destructive OperatiOns2 Have not both
producer and customer been injured2
Continuing Mai Mckinley spoke at
length of the prosperity of the south
under the protective tariff, reminding
his visitors that period of greatest
prosperity was after the sO-called
crime of 10. between 1880 and 1890 He
insisted that this prosperity had been
due largely to a protective tariff poll

RAID WOMEN'S POOL ROOM.
Seventeen Women are Found in a
Chicago Pool Room.

Chicago, III. Oct 16.-Another pool
room patronized by women has been
raided by the police Seventeen women
and two men were arrested by detect
ives in room s OF the Ricardo hotel, 168
Clark street and locked up at Harri-
son street police station. Unlike the
women arrested several weeks ago, on
the South side the prisoners were not
fashionable women, but were from the
middle class, apparently the wives Of
small shopkeepers and artisans.
The arrest came about through the
refusal of the manager of the place to
allow a mulattO woman to patrOnize
the place. after she had played once.
With the desire for revenge, she deter
mined to retaliate and at once swore
out a warrant for Ralph Doe, keeper
of the esta blishmenr. and for its in
mates. Charles Roby the man who
was found in the room, was with the
women. as was Edward Dunn. the
hotelkeeper who was sent along as
reward for his efforts to warn the wo-
men Of the presence of the detectives.
The Ricardo hotel is one of the Euro
pean hotels found in great numbers
along Clark street.

their interview with Mr. Watson.

Mr. Watson is the desire to have a talk
with him over the general situation
and to explain to him several matters
in the conduct of the campaign from
the Populist standpoint which have NOT

THE HIGH THEATER HAT.
May be Made the Subject Of an Ordi-
nance in Indianapolis.

Indianapolis. Oct17.-Members of the
city council have for several days been
discussing the question of an ordinance
prohibiting the wearing of high hats
by women at the theaters. The matter
has been kept quiet until Saturday
when one of the member said that the
majority of the council is in favor Of
such an ordinance, but no one appeared
to have the nerve to draw one up or
have 1T introduced
In New Orleans. this member said,
the high hat question was regulated by
a city ordinance. but in most states
where there is any law on the subject
at all it is the work of the legislature.
The idea of the councilman was to en-
body in an ordinance the points that
are contained in the Ohio law. Several
members admit they have heard of the
scheme. but say they do not know who
originated it.
