FUS4ONIsTs' LITTLE SCARE
Fear the Vote on Populist and Demo-
cratic Tickets Won't be Added

cratic Tickets Won't be Added
It is said that the Populist and Dem
Ocratic central committees are some
what exercised over what they believe
is plan to count Bryan OUT in this
state if he carries it
The basis for the rumor that there
is such a plan is that the blanks which
have been sent out by the secretary of
State to the county clerks for the pur-
pose of having the result of the vote in
each county certified to him have the
names of the Peoples Party and Dem
ocratic electors duplicated The elect
ors appearing under the heading of
Peoples Party and also under the head
ing Democratic.
The Populists say that in Indiana the
Republican central committee an
nounced that they would not allow the
votes of the separate tickets to be add
ded together although the electors
were the same on each ticket. The
fact that the return sheets in this state
are prepared in the manner they are
makes the Populist committee suspl-
cious that the same tactics viii be pur-
sued in this state.
This morning a consultation of some
of the leading lawyers of both parties
was held and plans agreed upon as 10
the manner in which legal action would
be commenced in case any such scheme
was tried.
5ecre LaEy OF state EDWARDS SalA 10 q
reporter in regard to the matter.
1.-THE return blanks were made in that
form simply for the purpose of con-
venience. The names of The electors
on the Peoples Party and Democratic
tickets are the same and they are i'm
fact the same men. ] don't think any
one is disposed to claim that the votes
they receive on the Peoples Party
ticket and the votes they roe
ceive on the Democratic ticket
will not be added together. The
supreme court in the mandamus case
decided that. there We're two separate
tickets and suppose that being the
case the votes cast for each ticket VIII
have to be tabulated separately.
Il think the Populists themselves VIII
want to know how many voted their
ticket and how many the Democratic
ticket OF course the number Of votes
the electors get on each of the tickets
will be added together"

Attemnted to XIII a Consul.

NEW YORK, Dec ia man made a
futile attempt to kill the German con-
sui, August Feigel, at the consulate,
No. = Bowling Green, at IL o'clock to-
day. He forced his way into the office
and pulled revolver, fully loaded,
from his overcoat pocket just as Consul
General Feigel appeared at the door.
Uttering curse in German the
man levelled the pistol at the
head of the consul general. The
majority of the clerks were
panic stricken and seemed para
lyzed with fear. Mr.. Paul Falcke, the
Vice Consul, however. jumped towards
the man, grabbed him about the should
ers and in the scrimmage the revolver
fell to the floor. The man fought like
mailman to regain the pistol and
finally succeeded. After running eve
rybody out of the Office he was cap
tured by policeman. He said his
name was Schuett, and that he arrived
in America from Hamburg, on Novem
Der 90th last. Schuett then told a ram
bling story of having been robbed of his
money and alleged German official per
secution, which he thought had follow
ed him to this country. This was his
only reason for his endesvor to kill the
consul. He was committed for exami

approve the declaration of the cabinet,
which will be accompanied by state
ment that ample reforms will be made
in the Antilles, the application of which
will depend upon the promptitude with
which the rebellion in Cuba subsidies.
