HENRY G. DAVIS, JR. DROWNED
Mr.. Henry g. Davis, Jr., n son OF ex
Senator Henry Il. Davis, of West Vr
ginia, was drowned last week.
He was about twenty-five years old
and was associated in business with
his father, being in charge of the
Junior Coal Company, which does a
local supply trade in Randolph county,
West Virginia.
Last January Mr.. Davis left for a
trip on sailing vessel to South Africa
to try to regain his health. The last
word received from him after his ar
rival in Africa announced his depar-
ture for home ON the steamer Monksea-
ton, from Cape Town. The steamer
sailed April 81 and Mr. DAVIS was
expected to arrive in New York about
May %.
Deceased was the brother-in.law of
Senator Stephen b. Elkins, of West
Virginia, who in speaking OF young
Mr.l Davis's death, said: at is a re
markabie thing that in the South
Atlantic waters storms occur without
INV premonotory indications. "A gale
bursts on ship before the mariners
have time to shorten sail. 1t is sup
posed that Mr.. Davis was sitting on
the deck OF the vessel when one of
these storms occurred and that he was
washed overheard by the first heavy
sea that struck the ship. The body
10 buried atsea.'

McKinley's Inconsistency.

The New York Herald says that a
committee Of business men of New
York will go to Ohio and try to extract
from Mr.. Mckinley an uneqnivocal
declaration of his views upon the
money question. AS the A. p. A.
special committee, according to the
Supreme Council of that organization,
succeeded in inducing Mr.. Mckinley to
discuss the principles of their order
and to give them his unqualified
approval. it would seem that the Ohio
man would be equally explicit when
the New York committee calls upon
him and asks him to say whether OF
not hefavors the gold standard. Surely
an issue which involves the welfare of
the whole country and upon which
depends its financial soundness is as
worthy of Mr.. McKinleY's consideration
as the PRINCIPLES of the A. P A.

run them away the shooting occurred.
