"LltChfie1d's Four Hundred"

Our neighbor city Litchfield is agi-
tated at present BY intense excite
ment.. The title to the real property
of four hundred of her citizens is de-
clared to be void by the United States
Government and it has begun suit in
the Circuit Court to recover the same.
The tract in question is 800 acres in
the heart of the village, embracing the
whole business district. The trouble
seems to originate from a wrong entry
made by the St. p, M. & NJ. r. r.
which is claimed had no right to the
land under it's grant. The U. S.
Marshal is making fine thing out of
it, having to serve papers on four
hundred defendants. The action has
begun in the name of the president.
There are 200, 900 acres in the state
that are to be recovered by the gov
eminent in the same manner, but this
is the only instance where it strikes a
village. It is not thought that the
present owners will lose their property.
even should the government win the
suit, but they will be put to annoy
ance and trouble. They would have
the first chance to secure the land
under the existing public land laws, at
a cost of $3.50 to $50 per acre. The
Individual expense of the suit will me
comparatively light as there ar , 2
great number to divide the cos,
among.

The revival meetings begun on the
9th OF February, by Evangelist Scot.
ton, in the Eddy school house were
discontinued last Friday. From the
beginning, the liveliest interest was
manifested in them by the people, who
from far and near gathered to hear
the message of the gospel. The book,
best Hymns" was used, and as usual
captured the congregation, which
gathered early to sing these stirring
songs- In all, forty weight cards were
signed. About thirty of the signers
were converted during the meeting.

PEORIA, H., Oct. 23.-Mr. Bryan's
first day in his work of rounding up in
Illinois took him across the central part
OF the state, beginning at Danville in
the morning, and ending at Peoria this
evening. Rain fell at some OF the ear
lier places where he spoke, but beyond
q rawness in the air the rest Of the day
was not bad for campaigning. There
were some novelties introduced in the
receptions given the candidate. He
rode through the streets of Decatur in
a horseless carriage, and at NATION
was carried from the train to the place
where the speaking took place in
decorated platform on wheels. The
wildness OF the welcomes given the
candidate DIT Decatur was almost I'M
precedented in his campaign. 1t was
impossible to get through the throngs
that pressed between his carriage, and
both platforms from which he was eX-
pected to speak, and he addressed his
audiences in each instance from the
vehicle Two speeches were made at
Springfield, the state capital, and the
home of Senator John NJ. Palmer, who
is in the race for the presidency on the
sound money Democratic Ticket Gov
ernor Altgeld was fulfilling his engage
lnents elsewhere in the state and con-
sequently could not welcome the head
of the national ticket. Meetings at
Decatur. Springfield and Peoria were
attended by great crowds. Mr.. Bryan
spoke twice in each of these cities and
also talked at Danville, Paris, Charles
ton, NATION, Sullivan, Petersburg, Ha-
vana and Pel1in. The train was in
charge CT Colonel ". s. Cantrel. rail-
road and warehouse commissioner of
Illinois, and through his efforts Mr..
Bryan was able to fulfill his engage
1nents with greater 9romptitude than
on other days.
Sixteen speeches was today's record.
At 1870 tonight Mr.. Bryan left Peoria
for ottawa, where he will begin his
speech-making tomorrow morning.

ardent desire was for the maintenance
and strengthening of the relations Of
friendship so long established between

81 am highly gratified at the assur-

KANSAS CITY. Mo, Oct 23-The
Chicago & Alton westbound train No.
As due here at $50 p. m. was held up
two miles east Of Independence by four
masked men.
| They cut the engine loose, com
PEELED the express messenger to open
the express car and secured three
packages of jewelry and $500 The
through safe was not opened. None of
| the passengers were nnolested.
The bandits drove the engine two
miles and took to the woods just be-
fore reaching Independence. The hold
up occurred in Blue Cut which has
been the scene of two previous rob
berries by the James boys. The train
was brought into Kansas City at S:45
p. m. Not shot was fired and no one
was hurt. The train was in charge Of
Conductor A. j. Fell and Engineer
James Welton. At the entrance of Blue
Cut 1t was tagged. Welton reversed his
engine and brought the train to a
stand still in the middle of the cut.
he locked out from his cab to ascsr-
tain the trouble when a gruff voice
commanded him to get out of the cab
and be quick about it, Welton looked
lreo the muzzle of a shot gun and
CDcS II CIlldH TOSI ClQ likewise.
Two more men emerged IN the dark
ness and mounted the engine. One Of
them picked up the freman's coal pick
Engineer and fireman were marched to
the express car Messenger Andy
Shields was commanded to open up.
He at first refused but finally complied
when convinced that Posts life was in
danger. The bandits entered the car
rified the money packages and secured
500 and a quantity of jewelry. The
hold-up occupied altogether about five
minutes The passengers knew MOTH
ing Of it until long afterwards.
Conductor Fell describes tae-men as
being snort and heavy with dark hair.
Their faces were masked. They car
ried shot guns and revolvers. Inspector
rlahive and a posse left Kansas City
on special train Immediately after
the report Of the robbery reached here.
The robbers are supposed to be rail-
road men from the fact that they knew
how to handle the engine.

HARVEST OF VOTES.
That VIII be the Result of the Good
Seed Being sovvn by Bryan on His
Phenomenal Tour.

NEW YORK, Oct. 2s.-There were
few callers today at Democratic head
quarters. Chairman Elliott Danforth,
of the Democratic state committee, de-
nounced the action of the parties who
had rotten-egged Secretary Carlisle at
Covington, last night, while he was
making a speech.
If these people could not respect the
office which Mr. Carlisle holds and lis
ten to his address," said Mr.. Danforth,
they should have kept away from the
building The police did not do their
duty and such an occurrence would not
nave taken place in New York.
Mr. AIanley was at the Republican
headquarters today.
Ex-Governor James E. Campbell ar
rived today at the Fifth avenue hotel
and stated that owing to pressure of
business he would be unable to take
the stump for Bryan in either this
state or Ohio. Speaking Of the situation
in Ohio he said:
II was surprised to find the free sill
yer sentiment so strong in Ohio es-
pecially among the farmers. Bryan is
making a tremendous impression wher-
ever he goes. and is winning votes by
the thousand"

Hanna Attempts to Make a Small
Wad of Political Capital.
Down by the Democratic National
Committee
DEnocRACY,s REPLY.

CHICAGO, Oct. 29.-The press
department of the Democratic ma
tional campaign headquarters to-
night issued d long reply to Che
statement which enanated earlier
in the day from Republican Chair
man Hanna, as an answer to the
Democratic advice to workingmen
to insist on an agreement with en-
ployers not to reduce wages, at
least within the next two years as a
trust of the latter's belief IN the
claim that Mckinley was the lad
vance agent of prosperity" The
Democratic reply. in part, states:
Hanna has killed the Republi-
can party and committed political
suicide His bulletin issued this af-
ternoon destroys the last chancs
of McKinley's election. 1t proves
every charge made against Hanna's
labor record. 1t is the most stu
pendous piece of folly ever COM
mitted in the name of politics. The
chairman of the Republican ma
tional committee practically admits
that McKinley's election will be fol-
lowed by a general reduction in
wages. Mark Hanna is the official
representative OF Mckinley and
Prosperity HIS form of prosper
ity seems to consist in a general re-
duction of wages, and denial of the
right of contract or of humble pc
tftion. Mr. Hanna's 'seditious cir
culdr' purports to be an answer to
a circular issued by Chairman
Jones of the Democratic national
committee. 1t is nothing of the
kind. 1t is a manifesto launched
against newspaper clipping, which
is part of daily service supplied
to papers by the press bureau of
the Democratic national commit
tee. 1t shows that Mark Hanna has
finally introduced into politics his
private methods of subjugating
labor.
in making this statement, Mr..
Hanna tacitly admits that no hon
est employer with ordinary business
sagacity will bind himself TO pay
the present scale of wages after
election. He knows that wages
must fall He knows that they
would have been reduced before
this time had not an Election been
pending. Mr.. Hanna and his as
sociate, Mr.. Payne would, like a
strike at this time with an oppor
tunity to call out the army and
militia. But they will be doomed to
disappointment
