the authority thus condemned was
nothing but opinion OF the Supre me
Court which Justice Field had him

Baadit's Horses

Meeker, Colo, Oct. 31.-Word reach
ed here to-day that the camp Of the
three holdups was found yesterday by
a party Of hunters. The location was
on Strawberry creek, about eight
miles from town. Their relay Of three
horses was tied to trees-one dead and
the other two nearly so-having been
seventeen days without food and wa.
ter. The camp was stocked with the
usual outfit of supplies and bedding;
three rifles were also found.
In spite Of the fact that the identity
OF the dead men seemed to be estab-
lished, there is strong reason to be-
lieve that the parties who claimed to
Identify them gave false names as re-
CARDS two Of the men anyway; wheth-
er they knew better or not may not be
known. Evidence Is nccumulating that
all three were wanted for other crimes
two having been concerned In the
robbery at Montpelier, Idaho, 1t is be-

A CRUSH AT CANTON.
Women and Children suffer In Big

Canton, O., Oct. 31.-In the awful
crush about the stand In the Mckinley
yard this afternoon to shake Major
Mckinley by the hand Youngstown
woman tainted dead away. She was
carried through the throng to the east
side of the street. where restoratives
were applied. She recovered after
time and was taken away in car
rfage. Several others were also over
come. Two little girls. about five years
old were caught In the crush and al
most smothered. Strong arms grasped
them and quickly carried them away.
Soon after these incidents the Niles
citizens were crowded so about the
stand that panic was imminent. Ma
jor Mckinley seeing the opportunity
proposed three cheers for the old flag
in the following words:
"My Fellow Citizens-I propose, in
as much MS this is Flag Day. In honor
OF the old standard which we love so
much, we give three rousing cheers
for 1t and what 1t represents in our
national life"
The people paused. the crush was
stayed, and with great vehemence the
cheers were given. The crowds NOV
ed away and Major Mckinley passed
quickly into the house. The maneuver
was timely and doubtless averted ser
lous injury to many in the crowd.
The crowds assembled to-day about

Lincoln, Neb., Nov. 1.-Mr. and Mrs.
Bryan reached their home In this city
at 1870 O'Clock after an absence OF
several weeks duration. In order to
be able to spend the day with their
children. 1t was necessary for Mr..
Bryan to depart from the rule which
he has invariably followed since his
nomination Of not travelling on Sunday.
They came from Council Bluffs, where
they spent last night with friends, on
their special train, covering the dis
tance in little over an hour. There
were no stops or demonstrations on the
way. as 1t was not known In advance
whether the home coming would occur
last night or to-day.
Mr.. Bryan might have been anything
but a presidential candidate, so quietly
was the day spent after reaching home.
There were a few callers. but they con-
sisted for the most part Of fellow
townsmen, and none Of them spent
more than sufficient time to inquire af-
ter the personal welfare of Mr.. Bryan
and his wife. Mr.. Bryan confessed to
all that he felt In need of securing II
good days rest. He accordingly re-
tired early in the afternoon and was
still sleeping at five o'clock, Mrs. Bryan
standing guard at the door to prevent
intrusion Of any kind.
The last day of the campaign will be
devoted wholly to Mr.. Bryan's own
state. and will be long and busy one.
Leaving Lincoln at $50 a. IN. to-mor-
row he will go westward as far as
Grand Island and from that point &c
turn over another railroad line In time
to reach Lincoln at $50. making
speeches of a few minutes duration
at all important points going and COM
ing. He will stop at Lincoln on his
return long enough to make last ad-
dress to the people Of his home town,
and will then proceed to Omaha,
where between the hours of and IL
o'clock, he Is expected to make from
five to seven speeches. Immediately
after the last speech in Omaha, MI.
Bryan will return again to Lincoln so
as to be here on election day. Mrs.
Bryan will accompany her husband
through the state, but will not go to
Omaha with him.

Trinidad, Nov. 1.-Word reached
Trinidad yesterday that while making
a political speech at Hoehne. n place
twelve miles east Of here. at about 10
O'Clock Saturday night, a man BY the
name of John HOyle attempted to as
sassinate Senator Casimiro Barela,
candidate ON the Democratic ticket for
stnte senator.
Hoyie was on the outside Of the
building and fred six shots through
the window at the senator. only one
Of which took effect, however.
The bullet struck Mr.. Rarela on the
side Of the neck and lodged some
where in the throat or head. The sen-
ator was brought to the residence OF a
relative several miles east Of this city
and a physician summoned.
After the shooting Hoyle was taken
into custody, and 1t was with great diff
ficulty that the Mexican friends OF Mr..
Barela could be prevented from mob
bing him. Hoyle has been brought to
Trinidad and Is now In the county jail.
The cause of the shooting was not
learned. The messenger who came
for the physician was interviewed, but
could give no information further
than that detailed above. 1t Is not
thought that the senator's wound will
prove fatal.
The physicians this morning remov-
ed the bullet which had lodged In the
side of Senator Barela's neck and re-
port that the present Indications are
that there will be no serious results.
