The Yale college students who
played hoodlums on the occasion of
ihe Bryan meeting at New Haven.
have been made the subjects of the
most scorching editorials OF the lead
ing papers Of the country. Such
rowdy and disgraceful conduct is al
ways quickly resented by all classes
Of American citizens. The Chicago
Times-Herald voices a popular SEN
timent when 1t says. The stu
dents. many OF them grown men. and
all OF them past the mere horseplay
period Of boyhood, went prepared to
annoy. II interrupt. and, II possible.
to silence the speaker. And they
did it. and in SO doing they dishon-
ored themselves aud the great in
stitution they profess to love and
revere. Mr.. Bryan behaved through.
out with dignity and credit. Only
once was he stIbg into an ungra.
cious retort. and for that he after.
ward apologized. He alone will be

nothing but apprehension and disap
probation for this scandalous scene
The students who engaged in it are

NEW YORK, Jan. 1S.-The Armenian
Relief association made public last night
q letter which describes the horrors of the
recent massacres in Turkey. It is dated
Cesarea, Nov. 30. 1895, and is rs follows:
while the Armenians were engaged in
their business rs usual the Turkish mob
fell upon them, killing 900 defenceless
men and wounding l,O0J more. The mob
divided into four parts. The first plum
dered the stores, the second looted the
houses, the third secured the maidens and
young brides, while tho fourth-fends
incarnate-attacked the public baths.
These human devils killed six naked
women in the presence of the others,
snatching their babies from their arms
and bayoncting the mothers.
''They then took some of the young
girls who were with their mothers Mt he
bath and dragged them naked by their
feet through the streets, followed by a
jeering and hooting mob. The Turks
then killed them and fired the houses.
The men who survived the sword were
discovered, taken to the magistrate and
searched; but no arms were found in
their possession, not even knife When
released and allowed to return to their
homes they were confronted by a most
CHASTITY picture. Some found their wives
dead, others horribly mutilated, daugh-
tiers outraged and bleeding. My hands

NOT GOOD TO BE ALONE.


That's What Gen. Harrison Thinks, and
VIII Marry Mrs. Dimmick.
SCw YORK, Jan. 1S-Ex-President Har.
r'son last night announced that he and
Mrs. Dimmick are engaged to be married.
Tho marriage will not take place until
After Lent. General Harrison will remain
In town until Sunday. but is not sure
whether he will leave to go to Indianapo-
lis or Washington.
The fact that General Harrison had an
important statement to make drew large
crowd OF politicians and others to the cor.
ridors CT the Fifth Avenue hotel last night.
Many OF the politicians expected that Har-
rison would make declaration as to his
candidacy for president, and were disap-
pointed when they heard that the general
talked Of matrimonial affairs instead of
politics At the appointed time Tibbitts,
the generals private secretary, made the
following statement in his room, where
he received the members of the press:
General Harrison authorizes the an
nouncement that he and Mrs. Dimmick
are engaged to be married, and that the
marriage will not take place until after
Lent When the secretary finished read
ing the announcement he refused to say
anything further, other than that ex- Pres.
ident Harrison would probably leave for
indianapolis on Monday, returning to
Washington in time to argue the Stanford
lawsuit. Mrs. Dimmick to whom the general
Is engaged, is better known in Indianap-
olis and Washington than in New York.
During the life of Mrs. Harrison, who was
her aunt, Mrs. Dimmick practically gov
erned HarrisOn's household in Indianapo-
lis, and directed the household affairs of
the White House during the period that
Mrs. Harrison was i'll and prior to her
death.
That Mrs. Dimmick was favorite with
Che then president in Washington is with
out a doubt. At all state functions she
received with Mrs. Harrison, and acted in
her place later when she was sick. 1t is
understood that the step was not taken
by General Harrison without consulting
his children, of whom he is very fond.
Mrs. Dimmick is 40 years of age, tall and
strikingly handsome brunette.

CINCINNATI, Jan. 1S.-The Commercial
Gazette publishes plea for Mckinley as
the flttest man for the Republican candi-
date for president, in its series of articles
on this subject. 1t was written by Sena-
tor John NJ. Thurston. 1t is a very elo-
Quent document. In the outset it says
the vital question before the Republicans
is not who can lead the party to victory.
Whoever may be nominated will be
elected. That man should be a
man of Incorporating convictions; one
who has consistently advocated sound
principles a, all times and in all
places.
He must be in the highest sense a son
Of all the states; the best known and uni
versally acknowledged as the leading ex-
ponent OF the great controlling issue
which the Republican party tenders to the
country, and that issue is protection to
American industries. The opening of
the factories is the great desideratum.
The questions Of money and finance are
secondary matters in comparison. The
Monroe doctrine will not be an issue, in
asmuch as all parties are one party in favor
of its enforcement. Any candidate whom
the Republican party dominates will
stand upon a platform pledged to that
character of bimetalism which guarantees
equal purchasing and debt-paying power
to every dollar authorized by the United
States.
"Thcrc is one man whose qualities pre-
sumably meet all these requirements; q
man not of one idea, but Of breadth and
versatility Of intellect and requirement
that have enabled him TO gather renown
ON every field Of American achievement
And this man upon whose shield malice
can find no blemish and SANDER place no
stain, this man whose whole life has been
consecratcd to his God, his country and
his home is William Mckinley"
The article then recites the history of
Mckinley as a soldier and adds that this
is a good time for a soldier candidate.
This country may soon be confronted
with the gravcst International complica-
tons. The Monroe doctrine may never
be accepted as International law except
E,rough force Of arms. The need of the
next administration should be a man who
has been successful soldier As well -
statesman.
