CANTON. O.. Sept. 16.-vice Chair
man L. D. Apsley of the. congressional
committee, who has been making
speeches on the Pacific slope, called on
Major Mckinley today and brought him
cheering news from the far west.
Mr.. Apsley says the situation on the
Pacific slope is improving daily from
the Republican point of view, and that
he believes California, Oregon and
Washington will give substantial pIu-
ralities for Mckinley and Hobart.
The people in those states want a
fair measure of protection for their in
dustries," said Mr.. Apsley, and they
have outgrown their free silver tenden-
cies''
Major Mckinley had "a quiet day so
far as the coming of delegations is
concerned, but his callers were numer-
Gus. He has prepared some of the
speeches which he expects to deliver
later in the week.
Arrangements for the big meeting. to
be held here on Friday are going rap
idly forward. AS the meeting is TO be
the formal opening of the campaign in
the candidates own county, and as it
is to be addressed by Senators Thurston
and Cullom, Governor Hastings of
Pennsylvania and Congressman Nc
Cleary of Minnesota, uncommon inter
est is being manifested in it. There will
be delegations mere on Friday from
Pennsylvania, Wes- Virginia, Kentucky.
Indiana and Michigan. Ten thousand
people are expected from Pittsburg and
vicinity, and an equally large number is
coming from Cleveland and eastern
Ohio.
The ElBins cadets will come on a spe-
cial train from Wheeling, and a dele
CATION of 1900 bicyclists is scheduled to
arrive from Toledo for the Friday meet
ing.
Major Mckinley will probably make a
short speech at both the afternoon and
evening meetings.
Governor a. S. Bushnell of Ohio will
be president of the day. It is estimated
that there will be upwards of 10000
visitors in Canton on that day. The
Real Estate Mems Republican club of
Buffalo have written Major Mckinley
that they would like to call on him
either September 20 or "a.
Mr.. Mckinley this evening attended a
dinner party at the residence of Hon.
Robert S. Shields. Mr.. Shields was Uni
ted States district attorney for the
northern district OF Ohio during Presi-
dent Cleveland's first administration
Tomorrow a large delegation of the
employees of the Edgar Thomson Steel
Works of Braddock, Pa, is expected to
call upon Major Mckinley. The dele
cation will be in charge of John Lit
tie, superintendent of the rail mill, and
John L. Jones will act as spokesman of
the party.

NEW AND UNEXPECTED MOVE
by this government in Turkish affairs.
That Turkey has not given this govern
ment permission TO send the Bancroft
or any OF its war vessels through the
BoSphorus, is NOT denied and the OBJ
ject in dispatching them, with the pos
sibiliJy of the DOrte's making a firm
protest against their presence, is no.
explained at the department
Especially in view of the circum-
stances that Turkey, in response to our
request 70 permit a vessel to pass -he
forts last January, expressly forbade
her to do so. gives additional interes.
to the attitude that may be maintained
by the administration with reference to
Turkey. The fact rnat both vessels
have been supplied with charts of the
BOsDhorus and the waters near Con-
stantinople emphasize the strong i'm
preston that eventually Minister Ter
rel viii have at his immediate call
two vessels of war capable of landing
a fairly large force for the preservation
OF American lives and interests around
the United States legation.
To force the BosDhOrus and anchor
there two ships of the Turkish capital
would not be equivalent to an unfriend-
" act toward Turkey in the opinion
OF the state department officials al
though they prefer the permission be
given.
The general opinion is that when
both vessels have reached the Levant
the porte will yield to the urgent So
lcitation of Mr.. Terrill and the permit
will be issued
The departure of the. Bancroft is
said to have been fastened a. the in
stance of Secretary Olney. and if the
Cincinnati can coal in time she will
sail before the close of the week The
practice vessels will go first to Fayal
for coal and. thence will proceed to
Gibraltar and on 10 the Levanc. where
she is under orders to announce her
arrival to Minister Terrell. The Gin
cfnnaId being three times the size of
the Bancroft and much faster will pro-
coed directly to the Mediterranean and
join the Bancroft at Gibraltar.
