New YORK, May 1l.-Benjamin
Urner, well known publisher, is
dead at his home in Fanwood,
New Jersey.
Mr.. Urner was born in Cincin-
natl, Ohio, on Sept. s, 1882. After

Lexow Gases in Court.

NEW YORK, May IA dusty
aftermath of the Lexow excite
ment will be disposed Of by the
criminal part of the Supreme court
that begins its sittings today.
Justice Keogh, Of Westminster, will
preside. Among the indictments
to be disposed of are those against
ex-Captains Carpenter, Killilea,
Siebert and Stephenson; Captains
Price and Schmittberger, and for
mer Wardmen Edward G. Glennon
and Henry II. Schill. There is al
so an untried Indictment against
superintendent of Buildings Brady
for having accepted piano as a
bride. All these indictments were
found on testimony brought out by
John w. Golf, now recorder, before
the Lexow committee. Most of
this testimony has been thrown
out on appeal by the biggest courts,
and it is expected the same treat
ment awaits these cases. The re-
cent rehearsals of COTS decision
in two murder trials will, 1t is said,
assist in weakening the force Of the
Lexow evidence.

Beeville Buzzings.

BEEvILLE, Tex, May 11.-ISpe-
ciall-At the close OF the sound
money county convention here on
Tuesday last the following call
was is'ued:
All sound money men are cor
daily invited to be present at a
meeting Of the sound money club
on Saturday May 9.
1t is presumed that the club did
meet this evening as several gen.
tlemen who are known to favor a
gold standard were seen going in
to the opera house about 3 p. m,
but as all newspaper men were ex-
cluded and no one allowed to pass
who does not favor that standard,
a report of the conference may
never reach the press. One old
populist was heard to remark that
it looked mighty like what his
people called dark lantern politics.
Hon. A. g. Kennedy said to the
reporter only a few minutes be-
fore entering the caucus that
while they would exclude news
paper reporters, there was no sem
timent in the club in favor of put
ting out a county ticket as had
been charged against them.

most important meetings OF rail-
road employees ever held took place
at the headquarters Of the Order Of
Railway Conductors, on Market,
street near Seventeenth. 1t repre-
sented officially six national orders

vention. There were some hum
dred present. The chief result Of
the convention was the adoption
OF a resolution to form federation

ment had no opposition whatever,
every speaker favoring the fedora
ton and every man present voted
for it. The only difference Of
opinion was on admitting the
American Railway union. AS

cluded Eugene V. Debs' order, but
an amendment to strike it of was
carried with only two or three dis
senting votes. The members OF
the grand lodges Of the six orders
represented at the meeting were
instructed to formulate plan for
uniting the six under a grand
council similar to the governing

ed resolutions favoring arbitration
and appeals from the decisions OF

MCKINLEY STICKS TO CANTON.
He Will Not go to Cleveland nor to the
Jersey Coast.

CANTON, Ohio, May ll.-For
several weeks rumors have been
circulated that when Gov. McKin-
ley was nominated at st. Louis he
would take up his residence at
Cleveland. On account of these
rumors several prominent men
made direct inquiries. One of
these said to the reporter that he
had been assured there was not
the slightest possibility OF such an
event. He said that Gov. McKin-
ley had in no wise changed his
plans, nor ever had any intention
OF leaving his home city during
the months OF the campaign in the
event of his nomination. A gentle
man from Cleveland said that
inducement had been made
to Gov. Mckinley, by every
friends in Cleveland, to induce
him to take up his residence in
that city after retiring from the
governors. office and that it had
been argued to him that Cleveland
Is more acceptable place for the
presidential campaign and might
be more convenient for him in
many ways. Gov. Mckinley did
not agree with the proposition in
any respect and answered that no
matter what the argument might
be, nothing could induce him after
leaving Columbus to make his
home in any place but Canton.
Another story which had wide cir
culation was that Gov. and Mrs.
Mckinley would soiourn during
the summer on the Jersey coast in
acceptance OF an invitation which
had been rendered them, while
such an invitation and many others
have been extended they have not
been accepted, and Gov. Mckinley
does not now expect to go to the
Jersey coast or any other place for
any extended vacation. He will
spend the summer at his Canton
home,

Some htheneum Notes.

There are twenty three seniors at the
Atheneum this year, and bright, beau
tiful set of girls they are.
Miss Frances Mooers Of Milwaukee,
who spent three years at DR.. Sargent's
famous physical culture school in Boston,
has been given charge of this department
at the Atheneum. Twice a week all the
girls are required to take class lessons
in physical culture, and it Is proving to be
one of the many very attractive features
of this excellent institution.
The young ladies of the school have
completed arrangements for the publica-
ton of a handsome college monthly, to
be known as the Atheneum Student. 1t
is to be an eight-page paper, and will be
published by Roberts & Son in their most
elegant style. Miss Ellen Abernethy of
Woodlawn has been elected editor-in-
chief and Misses Berta Parrish, Dora
Turner and Mary Jones, representing the
Tritonian, Castalian and Rosebud socie-
ties, will be her assistants Miss Mamie
Griffith of Village Springs is business

THE FIGHT IN THE SEVEN TIL.
Colonel Johns speechWas Highly Appreciated.
Survey of the Situato1-The Odds
in Favor of Bullock.

Cullman, Oct. 17.-(Special Correspond
ence. )-Col. S. w. John spoke here Tues
day night to one of the largest and most
appreciatiye audiences that ever assem-
bled here to hear a political speech. The
court house was full paeked-they were
literally sandwiched in. Among the audi
ence We're large number of ladies and a
sprinkling of goldbugs or boilers Colonel
John spoke for two and quarter hours,
and 1t is admitted on every hand that his
presentation of the issues was the strong
est ever heard here. His arguments are
unanswerable and he literally skinned
the boilers alive A man who can vote
Tor Palmer after hearing that speech has
ceased to act on his judgment. Much
good was accomplished FOR the electoral
ticket and for Hon. w. I. Bullock, demo-
cratic nominee for congress. 1t will be
cold day in August when our people for
get Sam Will John.
Mr.. Bullock and Mr.. Howard, the lat
ter the present populite member of con-
gross, have been speaking to joint audi
ences in this county this week. Mr.. Bull
lock has won many friends He will be
the next congressman from the Seventh
district. Mark the prediction.
Mr.. t. w. Powell Mrs. M. w. Howard
and Miss Cooper, from Hartselle, their
stenographer., are all located here man
aging Mr.. Howards campaign. Con-
sternation is being written on the counte-
nance of the extreme populite, on account
of the sure setting of Mr. Towards sun.
They now realize that the Seventh is
doubtful district. Indeed, 1t has always
been uncertain since the last days of
General Forney. While Kolb carried it
four years ago in August by 5000, Wood
lostSit to benson, democrat, by nearly
1000, and when Oates lost it two years
ago by 1000 Johnston cut that majority
half In August last. The district Is now
much nearer democratic in state elections
than it has ever been since ii gave its
first majority against the democracy.
We have carried it for congressman when
the ma joritysin state elections was al
most treble what tits now, and that with
the republicans acting In concert with
the populists. So with the present COM
plica tions-Curtis, republican,; Parker,
boiling democrat; Howard, populite;
Gather, a middle-of-t he-roader and Bull
lock the regular nominee of the only de-
mocracy, we are going to win.
Let Curtis come down in favor of Par
ker if he will. We defy him to do it. He
cannot deliver his constituents to any
man or party The republicans of some
of these counties have recently had some
experience in this delivering business,
and they will not deliver. In making up
the list of democratic congressman from
Alabama put down Hon. w. /. Bullock
from the Seventh. Let him that doubts
wait and see.
