Canton, October 29.--The historians Of
the campaign OF 1896 will record Thurs
day. October 20, as one OF the red letter
days Major Mckinley has been kept
busy since early morning and the Wis
itors came so fast about the middle Of
the day that he could not find time to
lunch until after o'clock. One party
was in town before Z o'clock. but con-
siderately delayed its call till the major
had finished his breakfast. Others came
at short intervals during the day and
the crowd became so large that the
speaking had to be transferred from
the porch to the reviewing stand. Each
caller was intent on shaking hands
with the nominee and so far as possi-
bic the opportunity was granted. al
though 1t was a Herculean task. At one
time the crowd became so large that Il
WAS impossible to organize the line for
the hand shaking receptions. But hun
dreds in that party fingered about the
house waiting for the major to reap
pear and towards evening he came ont
upon the porch to meet them.
Major Mckinley made i've formal
addresses, the last TO seven carloads OF
people coming from Fulton and WI
iiams counties. Ohio. and DeKalb and
other northwestern counties Of Indiana
There were two Introductory addresses.
The ive audiences were composed OF
fourteen delegations in which were rail-
road men. business men and manufac-
turers, farmers, mechanics. miners, oil
men, glass workers, iron workers, bank
ers, professional men. printers. men
and women Office employees, coming
from four states, West Virginia, Penn
sylvania, Indiana, and Ohio. Besides
the five speeches Major Mckinley re-
ceived a large number OF individual
callers from all over the country. and
shook hands with large party Of wSfn-
en- stenographers from Akron who had
a tallyho parade, and who were after

Vining had quarrelled last evening

would kill couple of people, and went
to cabin at the edge Of town and re-
turned with a rifle, looked into the sa-
loon, but not seeing the two men, took
up station across the street. About
an hour elapsed when one Of the men,
named Mcintyre, stepped out and Vim
ing fired. The bullet shattered his arm,
necessitating amputation. The lights
in the saloon were extinguished and the
men scattered. Vining waited for an
other victim and fired at the next man
to leave. He proved to be James Jones,
aged 3d. and particular friend of
Vining. When the mistake was dis

A PROCLAMATION.
BY THE BkOTHERHoODS OF EN-
GtNEERS AND FIREMEN.
Strong Declaration for Mckinley and
Sound Money by Those Or
ganiZations.

Peoria. ILL.,. Oct. 27. 1896
To the Workingmen OF the United
States
To refute the false statement, as We
sincerely believe II to be. and to correct
the impression our friends and ae-
quaintances may have formed concern
ing our signatures to campaign doc
ument going, the rounds OF the press
and circulated broadcast on the streets,
entitled. "A Proclamation" in, which 1t
is made to appear that we are in favor
OF free silver at any ratio. and the
substantial establishment of two stand
ards of money, contradictory as the
terms may be, we wish to be recorded
by all who are interested in our posi-
tiop as being emphaticaJly and une-
.Quivocally against any such measures,
but are for the sound money plank
promulgated by the Republican conven-
tion at st. Louis.
Our signatures were obtained nearly
three years ago to document pretend
ing to be a memorial to congress. then
in session, which in our belief and men,
ory was much milder paper than is
the proclamation" referred to, and no
matter what our opinions may have
been on any question at the time Of
our signing the memorial. nearly three
years ago, we have learned enough since
on the subject to warrant us in re-
nouncing the attempt at the free coin
age Of silver at 16 to l. believing 1t to
be directly against the interests of la
Dor, and also believing that, under the
condition of free coinage, this country
will be subjected to one of the most
frlghtful panics any county in this
world has ever seen.
Our belief in this statement is
strengthened by the admission made by |
William Jennings Bryan, candidate for
president, in a recent speech in the
Northwest, wherein he is reported as
saying that he though free silver coin
age would bring for the present stagna-
ton and panic, but from which in four
years we would recover. We do not
believe this country can stand an addi-
tional four years of misery and dis
.ress, and are therefore opposed to the
contained in the aforesaid
proclamation" Respectfully,
