The Rescue Case.

Godcy's Magazine for October, 1856,
contains an article by Ida Rose McCabe
on the 0berlin-Wellington rescue case.
In 1853 John Price, runaway slave,
was employed on farm near 0berlin.
Late in the autumn he was located
by his master and captured and
brought to this place and confined in
what was then known as the Wadsworth
inn, now the American house, to await
the arrival of the evening train to con-
vey him south. A large crowd soon col
lected around the inn and John made
good his escape through the west win
d)w in the attic. Great excitement pre-
vailed and the rescuers were placed un-
der arrest for interfering with the fugi-
tive slave laws and taken to Cleveland
and confined in Jail.
A cut Of the accused as they appeared
in Jail. one OF the WadswOrth inn and
one Of the Congregational church, 0ber-
lin, where the party held jollifca-
tiOn meeting after they regained their
liberty, appear in the magazine. The
writer has given very accurate account
of the affair which will doubtless be
peruscd with great interest by those who
have Just reached their majority.

THE CAMPAIGN.
Hon. w. S. Kerr Delivers Telling Speech
at the Opera House.

at the Opera House.
The campaign was opened in this
place Monday evening by Representative
W. S. Kerr, Of Mansfield. The opera
house was filled to Overfowing. Delega-
tiOns were present from Sullivan, Hunt
ingtOn, Brighton and large representa-
tions from Spencer, Rochester, Clarks-
field, Penfeld and Pittsfeld.
The speaker began his speech by re-
hearsing the unpatriotic work Of the
Chicago convention by paragraphs. The
first was the resolution by that cOnven-
tiOn censuring the supreme court for de-
Gliding adversely to an income tax. The
second was for denOuncing the presi-
dent for ordering the distractions re-
moved in Chicago during the great riot
By the outlaws that detained the United
States mail, and perishable freight
which the general government was duty
bound to look after under the interstate
commerce law. The state of Illinois had
an anarchist in the executive chair at
Springfield and the city Of Chicago had a
tool, who was in the hands Of the out
laws, for mayor, and both quietly sat
with folded arms and witnessed thous-
ands of dollars worth Of property de-
strOyed, business in the great center
brought to a standstill, and would do
nothing. Still the democratic party
passed resolution endorsing the out
| laws.
The folly of the silver craze was then
shown up. Under the law the mlnts
are authorized to coin $40,000,0O0 annu-
ally, which would be about sixty cents
apiece for the people and it would take a
great while to accumulate very big
pile in that way. We now have nearly
$24 per capita, which is above the major
ity OF the leading nations, and to in
crease IL would be dangerous. He showed
c0nCllSlVely lh2J TO vote the democratic
ticket this fall would be as dangerous as
it was The year preceding the civil war
The speech was able, convincing ant
above all one that reached the masses.
Martial music was present from Brigh
ton and Sullivan and the Wellington
cOrnet band discOursed some patriot,
music. The male quartet favored thl
audience at the opening with one o
their best. The men, women, boys, girl
and even the infants were all on hand t
assist in the grand patriotic movement
Great credit is due the local committees
. as nothing was left undone to make tn

A RECEIVER APPOINTED
WARWICK ELECTRIC MANUFAc-

Unable to Meet Their Obligations They
are Forced to the Financial WalI.-
Bonds Could Not BE TIoated.
For some days it has been quietly ru-
mored in financial circles that the affairs
OF the Warwick Manufacturing Company
were in such shape that receiver
would likely be appointed.
Saturday and Monday the creditors be-
came uneasy and Tuesday afternoon W.
j. Hart, of Cleveland, was appointed re-
ceiyer and came out and took charge of
the plant this morning.
The liabilities are reported to be about
$2S,OO0, with assets about $4,000. 1t
appears that the company started in
with little cash, expecting to float their
bonds to secure currency to meet their
obligations, but it seems that bonds in
order to be in demand need to be gold

exist, as the stockholders appeared to be

receiver to operate the plant until fur
ther notice.

HE HATES AMERICANS
SECRET OF PREPOSTEROUS BAIL
DEMANDED FOR THE CASTLES.
Their London Lawyer Relieves Mr..
Castle VIII BE Discharged and Told
to Take Better Care of His Wife.

LONDON, Oct. 1s.-The preposterously
excessive bail of $500, 600 fixed by Magistrate
Newton in the case OF Mr.. and Mrs. Walter
Castle having been rendered, both of the
accused went somewhere in the country
Their trunks remain in the hands of the
police. Newton is much of a crank. He is
the magistrate whose similarly preposter-
Gus treatment of respectable sewing girl
Elizabeth Cass, arrested for soliciting
few years ago, LED to the defeat of the Sal
isbury government. The Castles will go be-
fore him again next Tuesday. At the office
of Bernard Abrahams, solicitor for the Cas-
ties, his partner. Mr.. Holloway, stated:
I'VE have heard of no fresh charge The
police would be bound to notify us if such
a charge were to be made. When they ap-
pear in court again we hope the prelim-
mary investigation will be finished and the
case sent to a higher tribunal, by which it
Will be finally dealt with"
Was not the bail fixed at an unprece-
dented hgure?" was asked.
1T was perfectly monstrous," he an
swered. THE intention of the magistrate
was to make it prohibitory. as he takes an
exceedingly severe view of such cases. He
astonished when the bail was forth
coming
How will the case go?"
Mr. Castle will be discharged and Mrs.
Castle handed over to his charge as being
unaccountable for her actions. Mr. Castle
has vouchers for the purchase of many ar
ucles found in his baggage, but he can't
get these vouchers until the police are
through with them.'
Louis WE'LL, one of the sureties of the
Castles to the extent of $50, ,000 is one of the
largest wholesale watch dealers in London
My interest in Mr.. Castle and his wife"
he said, lis purely friendship. When L was
in San Francisco two years ago they treat
ed me with charming hospitality. The
ma agistrate is woman hater. He Is also
not too well disposed towards Americans
and he never likes, anyway, to let GO his
grip of any prisoner"
Mr.. Berline, manager of the Hotel Cecil
said in reference to the arrest of the Cas-
ties: Il must say the demeanor of Mr.. Cas-
: tie was that Of an innocent person, for he
seemed more amazed than anybody at the
discoveries made. His wife hysteric-
al"
Were not the articles such as could be
compressed into small space, so Mrs. Cas-
tie could have secreted them without her
husbands knowledge in these large
trunks %
Most of them were small" Mr.. Berline
answered. For many l believe the police
they were purchased. But the clocks. for
instance, filled a large space, and could
scarcely be hid in any trunk without at
tracing attention from their bulk. My
theory is that Mr.. Castle gave his wife
much money as she wanted, and knowing
articles OF this kind, he paid no particular
attention to what she had in her trunks.
Besides, she may have done all the pack
ing, as ladies sometimes do"

A PONDTOWN TRAGEDY.
Two Men Shot While Demoiishing the
House of Harmon Calaman.

CHAMBERSBURG, Pa, Oct. 1S.-David
Pearl, mulatto was shot and killed at
Pondtown, a few miles from here, last
night by Harmon Calaman, and John
Beideiman, Pearls companion, was seri-
ously wounded. The details of the shoot
ing. related by Calaman when he was
brought to the county prison here to-day,
read like a chapter from a blood and
thunder novel. Pearl and Beidelman
went to the home of Otho Calaman,
against whom Beidelman had grudge
because of the formers refusal to per-
nit him to marry his daughter, and be-
gan stoning it. They broke every window
in the house, and inflicted injuries on Mrs
Calaman and the infant she was carrying
of furniture and crockery in the house We're
broken. One of the missiles hurled
through a window was the knuckle end
of beef. This made a hole in the stove
pipe and lodged there being seen by the
officers when they visited the house to-
day.
house of the father of Beidelman's
sweetheart. the two men loudly pro-
claimed that they would go to the house
of Harmon Calaman, a brother of Otho
away, and would do him up Harmon
Calaman evidently overheard the threat OF
the men, for he went into the garden few
feet from the house, armed with shotgun
When the men began the same abuse of
his family that they had inflicted on his
brothers household, Harmon Calaman
blazed away with his gun. killing Pearl
instantly. He then went to his barn, re-
who had followed him into the orchard
The load lodged in Beidelman's left leg,
inficting a serious wound. Both men are
in prison. Calaman bears a very good
reputation
