CHICAGO, Sept. 25.-GeneraI James
B. Weaver of Iowa came to national
headquarters today from his state. where
he has been delivering speeches. He is
bound for Kentucky, where he will &C.
liver three speeches in the central part
of the state next week and then re-
turn to Iowa, to remain most of the
time to the close of the campaign. To
q reporter of the United Associated
Presses the former nominee of the Peo-
pies party for president said:
THE battle is practically won, and
Mr.. Bryan's election is assured. There
is no possible way in which he can be
defeated. 1 have been making very
careful estimates and I am familiar
with the situation in the states where
Mr.. Bryan will get electoral votes 1
have spent all the time this fall in Iowa.
There never was half the opportunity
for Us to carry the state as there is
today.
Ct will give you some figures to sup
port my assertion. In 1892 the popular
vote was: Harrison. $4,000. Cleveland,
1856, 600; Populisss, 10000 Prohibitionists,
5000. The combined Democratic-Popu-
list vote was 216,000 This year at least
20. 900 Republicans will vote for Bryan;
transferring this vote from the Re
publican total Of $4,000 to the Demo-
Gratis. gives $4,000 against 10000 for
the Republicans. The gold Democratic
detection is of no consequence They
viii not give more than 5000 votes TO
Mckinley. but allowing them 10000.
which is more than 100 to a county, de-
duct it from the Bryan vote and add it
to McKinley's vote, and they viii then
have 2O9, OOO against $4,000 for Bryan
At least 5000 Broad Gauge Prohibit
tionists will vote for Bryan and since
1892 5000 Repubhcan-Popuiist votes
have been added to our column. II
Bryan gets them, and he no doubt will.
that will give him total of $4,000
against a possible 100000 for McKin-
-e--.
The vice-pressdential situation is not
talked of in any way in Iowa. We
don't regard it as an issue before the
American people. There is no doubt
about any state from Minnesota TO the
sea-

BRICKS AND BOULDERS.
They Play Very Prominent Part in
u Political Meeting and Parade
at Orestes, Indiana.

ANDERSON, Ind, Sept. ga free sill
yer meeting at Orestes this afternoon
broke suddenly with a riot.
A parade was one of the features and
the line of march lay past the Republican
Glass Workers club house.
Fifteen or twenty members were seated
on the porch when the parade passed.
Persons in line made remarks about the
Mckinley pictures in the windows. This
brought on words, and a company Of
mounted men. followed by a mob on foot,
left the ranks and attacked the little
party. a perfect shower of boulders and
bricks fell on the porch, hitting the men
and crashing through the weather board
ing and windows. The unmounted men
did what the rocks failed to do. and when
the riot was stopped by cooler heads and
the three or four hundred men were dis
persed it was found that about twenty
had been seriously injured and three. John
Mckinney D. X. Miller and Carl Light
foot. were in q, most dangerous condition.
1t is feared tonight they will die. The
club house is a wreck. Among those now
under arrest is +. H. Carter postmaster
at Sumnitville.

HIS SUN HAS SET.
Dixon Not the Fighter of oIden Days
-Jabbcd All Around the Ring.

NEW YORK. Sept. 25.-George Dixon,
the champion featherweight Of the
world, fought the hardest battle of his
career when he had finished his 20
round bout with Tommy White of CHI
cago tonight
The colored lad went into the ring a
hot favorite, but before half the barrIe
was over the 5000 spectators saw that
he was not 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 fair ere,
there were many VINO thought White
had the best of the encounter.
The western man lacked steam be-
hind his blows, and depended almost
entirely on his left with which he
ja5bed Dixon time and time again IN
til his mouth and nose We're bleeding
freely and his LETT eye badly puffed up.
White was undentably game and
clever, and the manner in which he
blocked and avoided DiXon's rushes
and swings gained him the admiration
of the crowd.
Although Writes face was unmarked
at the end of the struggle. his body
showed the effects of the blows which
sessed more hitting power, Dixon must
certainly have gone down before the
blows from White.
AS it was White had ali the best OF
the last round and smilingly jabbed
Dixon all around the ring, landing on
the damaged face while the cCiored lad
clinched desperately.

He Has Hopes, Bat They Are Not Of
the Most Roseate Nature.

He Has Hopes, Bat They Are Not of
the Most Roseate Nature.
CHICAGO, Sept. Pa letter was re-
ceived today by Perry S. Heath at
Republican national headquarters from
Chairman Filley of the Missouri com
mittee. He stated that the Populists
and 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 on electoral, congress
sional or state tickets.
Mr. Filley expressed confidence that
the state would go for Mckinley. even
if it did nothing else for the party. He
added that a great fight was being
made in congressional districts, and
believed there would be gains for the
party.
1t has not been customary in presi-
Dental campaigns to send literature
into 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
Mexico.
At conference today of the execu-
tive committee and delegation from
the National Republican league
headed by President Woodmansee and
Secretary Downing, 1T was decided to
have the work of all the clubs in the
country done for the national ticket
under the direction Of the executive
committee.
Secretary Bowling and his part of
the organization have been working as
a department of the national commit
tee since Mr.. Hanna's first visit to
Chicago.

IN RAILWAY CIRCLES.

Decentralization in the Western
Freight Association Has Begun.
CHICAGO, Sept. 25.-The expected de-
morslization of rates consequent upon the
withdrawal from the Western Freight
association of the Santa Fe and the Rock
Island roads has already begun; though
in reality there was much Generalization
before the crash came.
Today, both the Chicago Great Western
and the Alton put in a rate of 81 per ton
on hard coal from Chicago to Kansas
City. The Great Western also announced
a rate of S1.9O per ton to- st. Paul and
Intermediate points. the same rate to ap-
ply to Hampton and Lyle, Ia, ana inter-
mediate points, The old rates were 50
and 81. so respectively.
The withdrawal of the Rock Island and
Santa Fe is accepted as the virtual col
lapse of the Western Freight association
ana a general reorganization is looked for.

ST. PAUL, Mimi, Sept. 25.-Over
5000 people gathered this evening ar
the Auditorium to hear the sound
money address of generals of the
civil war, who are touring the country
together.
General o. o. Howard was the

three cheers.
General Alger followed with a brief
address, which was warmly received.
The great enthusiasm OF the evening,
however, centered around General
Sickles. He had hardly spoken a dozen
words when crowd of Bryan men in
the gallery tried to howl him down.
Looking straight in the direction of
the hubbub for a minute, General
Sickles said, in a very loud voice:

At this. what seemed to be 80 per

with a cheer. Then General Sickles
said quietly:

There was a dead calm for a minute,
during which nobody rose. This was
followed by the greatest demonstration
of the evening, the applause lasting
several minutes.

with a brief address. after which Coz
poral Tanner created enthusiasm by
his reference to the attitude Of the old

dity. Ohio wool has dropped from 70
cents in 1892 to is cents per pound IN
1896. This will give you some idea OF
what free wool has done for the wool
producers in the United States. How
has it affected the manufacturer? 1t
is well known that there is one custo-
mer for the wool grower in the United
States, and that cust olner is the man
ufacturer Of the. United States. The
American wool grower has no foreign
market today. He cannot compete in
any other market with the woods
grown on cheap iands9and by cheaper
labor Of other countries. This is his mar
ket, and when it is taken from him 1t
entails loss and ruin to him. In the
first year of free wool 120,O00,O0O
pounds of clothing woods came to our
ports, an increase of OVER 800 per cent
as compared with the largest guam
tity received when duty was i'm
posed; and the total imports of all
classes reached $50, 600, 600 pounds, while
ITS O,00O pounds were the largest i'm

good enough you can send its value up
until one dollar will buy twenty
bushels of oats; and If the farmer is
troubled with getting too much money
for his oats you can send it still higher
so that it will get one hundred bushels
of oats. When they talk of a gold
