Committeeman Filley's Prediction as
to the Result in nissOuri.

CHICAGO, Sept. PA letter was re-
ceived to-day by Perry S. Heath, at
Republican national headquarters. from
Chairman F'illey of the Missouri Com
mittee. He stated that the Populists
ard Democrats had fused in thirteen
counties of the State, all being Repub-
lican counties, which endangered the
Legislature for the party. but there had
been no fusion of Congressional, State
or national tickets. Mr.. Filley predicted
that the State would go for Mckinley,
even if it did nothing else for the party.
1t has not been customary in Presi-
Dental campaigns to send literature in
to the Territories, but the demand has
been so great that the Literary Bureau
has sent reading matter to all, more
especially to Oklahoma and New Mex
leo.
At conference to-day of the Eexecu
tive Committee and a delegation from
the National Republican League, head
ed by President Woodmansee, it was
decided to have the work of all clubs
in the country done for the national
ticket under the direction Of the Execu-
tive Committee. Secretary Bowling and

whom I have battled on this money
question, became a convert to free sill

racy Of Massachusetts, I made up my
mind that If George Fred Williams

DIXON MEETS HIS MATCH.
Fought the Hardest Battle of His
Career With Tommy White.

NEW YORK, Sept. 25.-George Dix
on, the champio feather weight of the
world, fought the hardest battle of his
career when he had finished his twenty
round bout with Tommy White of Chi
cago tonight. The colored lad went
into the ring hot favorite, but before
half the battle was over the 5000 spec
tators saw that he was rot the Dixon
of former battles. At times he showed
some of his old-time cyclonic dash, but
the restless energy and terrific punching
power that made him famous were not
there.
Dixon met his match at last and al
though the decision was a fair one there
were many who thought White had the
best Of the encounter. The Western
man lacked steam behind his blows,
and depended almost entirely upon his
left, with which he jabbed Dixon time
and time again, until his nose and
mouth were bleeding freely and his left
eye badly puffed up. White was unde-
niably game and clever, and the manner
in which he blocked and avoided Dix
on'S rusheS and swings gained him the
admiration Of the crowd. Although
Whites face was unmarked at the end
of the struggle, his body showed the eff
fects Of the blows which Dixon landed.

Four Thousand People Pay Tribute to
the TwO>Generals Who Fought

We're the star attraction at the Mary
land ratification Of the National Demo-
cratic party, which was held at Music
Hall. The frequent mention of Bryan's s
name was cheered by quite a number,
while others as vigorously Kissed every
allusion to the silver candidate.
A Palmer and Buckner electoral
ticket was put in the field by the adop-
ton of a resolution Of special commit
tee. The band added to the tumult Of
greeting given the two Generals by
playing MY Old Kentucky Home" and
Maryland, My Maryland
After touching upon the past strug-
giles between the North and the South,
General Palmer said:
II am here tonight in the attitude
of a candidate for President of the
United States without the expectation
of being elected. In fact, the declara-
tion of principles adopted at Indianap-
oils did not assert that the convention
had any such expectations. 1t was in
the face of that distinct official utter
ance that I accepted the nomination
that was kindly offered me. The dele
gates to the Indianapolis convention
were Democrats, not Republicans or
Populists. They felt constrained to an
nounce to the country that they could
not support the Chicago nominees or
platform
That there were several Republicans
in the audience was manifested by the
cheers following the mention of Nc
Kinley's name. The name of Joshua
Levering was also cheered
Concluding, General Palmer took up
the financial situation. After congrat-
ulating Mr.. Bryan and his supporters
on their unparalleled boldness in max
ing certain Outrageous claims" Cen
eral Palmer added that it is astonish-
ence such propositions should be en-
tertained by sane men. He said the
United States must continue to enforce
its own laws by it's own methods. The
credit of the United States and Of the
several States must be maintained; the
people must not be invited to repudia-
ton. (Cheers.)
General Buckner was then intro
duced. The audience gave the Ken
tuckian a special welcome, and the
cheers were intermingled with the rebel
yell. The General discussed the finan-
cial question, but his argument was lost
to most of those who tried to follow
him because of the noise made by hun
dreds who were leaving the hall.
Ex-Congressman Isidor Raynor was
the last speaker.

SENSATION AT CHICAGO.
A Wealthy Wine Merchant Attempts
to Commit Suicide.

CHICAGO, Sept. Pa great sensa-
ton was produced in business and So
cial circles in this city when it was
learned that John M. Faulhaber, a
wealthy wine merchant, had made an
attempt to commit suicide and would
undoubtedly die.
Faulhaber has been we'll known for
many years among business men, and
great surprise was experienced at his
attempt at self-destruction, as it was
generally believed that he was the
possessor of a large fortune and of a
prosperous business. His more init
mate acquaintances, however, say that
he has met with business reverses of
late, and they made him morose and
fearful of the future.
Moreover his domestic relations had
not been satisfactory for a long time. It
was probably combination of these
two things that caused him to give up
the struggle.
Faulhaber evidently intended to

BOLD ROBBERY AT CHICAGO.
TWO TEN Held UP THE CASHIER
OF A FOUNDRY,
Loot the Safe of Sixteen Hundred
Dollars and Take Good
Their Escape.

CHICAGO, Sept 25.-Two robbers
late this afternoon entered the Office Of
the Western Foundry Company, at the
corner Of Thirty seventh street and AL
bany avenue, and holding up the
cashier, NJ. A. Rourke. took 81 600 from
the safe and escaped. They Were pur-
sued by crowd which was collected by
the foundry people, and were III a fair
way to be captured at 36S California
avenue, but again eluded their pur-
suers. At this place the buggy in
which the men We're riding broke down,
and as they were about starting to es-
cape on foot Frank Nyhoft a milk
man, came along. The two men jumped
into his wagon and demanded that he
vacate. On refusing they shot him in
the leg, pitched him out and drove
away at furious pace.
Officers from the Brighton Police Sta
ton, who had been apprised of the out
rage, were soon on the scene and
started in pursuit of the outlaws in a
patrol wagon. The men were lost
sight of, however, but the police, after
following in the direction in which they
We're supposed to have fled, found near
ly two miles from the foundry the milk
wagon, which had also broken DOWN
The entire Southwestern Police District
was notified, and a large detail Of Off
GERS were sent out.
There were five men in the office
when the hold-up occurred. It is
claimed by one of these that the rob
bers were formerly employees One OF
the robbers was fashionably dressed,
while the other was rather sEabbiIy-
dressed in a suit OF brown.
The police up to late hour to- night
had found no trace Of the highway
men.
-Four large revolvers, one light and
one dark false beard and an old slouch
hat are locked UP at the Brighton Park
station. Together with these clews
the police have at the same station the
horse and buggy used by the robbers
in making their escape.
The location of the hold-up vas an
ideal one. The foundry is far out in
the extreme end of Brighton Park The
shop is a one-story brick affair, front
ing on Albany avenue, and is half 4
block from Kenzie avenue. The near
est house is a saloon at Kenzie avenue
while between it and the shop stretches
a long expanse of prairie. The office
is a small affair, about ten by ten, and
fronts on Albany avenue.
At the time the robbery took place
there We're five men in the office. The
President and General Superintendent
of the company We're among those in
the Office at the time. President ONeiI
sat at his desk conversing with Super
intendent Hopkins. A clerk was at
work on the payroll and did not see
the men enter the office, and the first
he was aware of their presence was
when one of them called out in hoarse
voice that they should hold UP their
hands. The five men were ordered to
stand side by side in a corner, and
while one of the robbers covered them
with revolvers the other helped himself
to the money. Both men backed cut
of the office, and jumping into their
buggy drove at a furious rate of speed
across the prairie to Thlrty-siXth
street Several shots were fired after
them, and they returned the fire, but
none of the bullets struck anybody.

POLL OF NEBRASKA.
Democrats Claim the State by Over
Twenty Thousand Majority.

OMAHA, Sept 25.-PolIs taken by the
Democratic Committee in this State
show that Nebraska viii give Mr.
Bryan fully $4,000 majority. The al
legged detection among the Germans is
said to be without foundation. Mr..
Herman, the Secretary, says that nor
only will the Democrats hold their own
among the German voters, but will gain
considerable vote from among tho
German farmers of the Republican per-
suasion. Mr. Herman is very jubilant
over the prospect, and says that every
nominee on the free coinage ticket Will
be elected by overwhelming majorities.
