THE ONLY ISSUE
Hanna Thinks the Financial Issue only Q
nlnor ratter

CHICAGO, June ga special to a
morning paper from Cleveland says
that Mark Hanna does not think that the
silver question is a matter of great con-
sequence to the workingmen, and quotes
him in an interview as follows:
1.-THE thousands of worlsingmen who
are employed in the manufactures of
this country do not care an iota about
this question of free silver. They say
they do not, and it is apparent that what
the industrial classes of America want
is better times. a dawn of prosperity and
some assurance that they will ere long
receive better wages. or at least sti-
pend equal othat which they were get
ting before the financial depression
which followed the Democratic victory
of 1892
II am convinced of the correctness of
what I am saying because have talked
with my men on this subject. have 5000
to 5000 men in my employ, and know
by personal investigation that the men
who are working in the shops and in the
mines care little or nothing about the
whole financial question. They recognize
the fact that it is one of the issues of the
campaign, but that is about as far as
their interest goes. 1t is the farmers and
the debtor class of the country who argue
the free silver matter. The workingmen
want prosperity, and they realize the
fact that this much desired condition can
only come as the result of the remedial
measures of protective tariff.
However, the nomination of McKin-
ley on a gold platform is going to slim
ulate industry. 1t will bring back to
this country much of the capital which
was withdrawn by foreign investors,
and it's effect will be felt in an equal de-
gree among local capitalists. Why, ]
myself know of enterprises involving an
investment of millions of dollars whose
contamination was purposely delayed
until the projectors could ascertain the
character of the declarations in the St.
Louis platform.

CANYON CITY, Col. June 26.-Will-
lam Holt, Albert Noble and Dronico Ro-
nero tonight suffered the death penalty
in the Colorado penitentiary for the
murder of Policeman John Solomon at
Trinidad in November last. Only the
penitentiary officials and the sheriff of
Las Animas county, where the crime
occurred, were present. The hanging
machine, by which the criminal becomes
his own executioner, worked to perfec-
tion and each mans neck was broken
Holt broke down entirely and had to be
carried to the execution room, but the
others maintained an air of Indifference
to the last.
Their crime was committed in an at
tempt to rob a gambling house at Trim
idad. At the closing hour Solomon was
carrying the money bag to a place of
safety. When the three men ordered
him to give up the money a struggle
ensued in which Solomon was shot sew
eral times, dying at once.

Mrs. Mckinley, mother of Mckinley, and
each lady of the party. with bouquet
of pretty flowers from the ladies of Can

"Women of Canton: ] am sure that
both wife and mother would have me
express their warm appreciation of the
gracious words spoke in their presence.
and 1 assure you that no higher honor
can come to me than this loving tribute
you have paid to those who are so near

higher commentator can come to any

whom he has dwelt SO long. 1t will give

later in the evening D. c. Reed pro-
claimed that committee be appointed
to find the mayor and hang him to the
first telegraph pole. Continuing, Reed
declared that the advocates of the bonds
stood ready to assassinate a thousand
citizens in order to accomplish their

with him to combat such tyrrany, to

THE VENEZUELAN QUESTION
Not Complicated by Surveyor
Harrison's Arrest
THAT MATTER IS SETTLED
Through the Good Offices OF the United
States
It Is Believed That the Incident Has nade
the rlain Issue nore Easy Of
Settlement
ssociated Press Snecial Wire.

Associated FTeSS oneCldl wire.
WASHINGTON, June 26.-The latest
complication in the Venezuelan question
has been promptly settled through the
friendly Intervention of the United
States. Mr.. Andrade, the Venezuelan
minister, called at the state department
today and handed to Mr.. Olney a copy
OF the telegram he had just received from
Mr.. Rojas, the Venezuelan minister of
foreign affairs, stating that Mr.. Harri-
son, the crown surveyor of British
Guiana, who, with his party, had been
placed under arrest by Venezuelan Of
ficers. had been promptly released. The
telegram to Mr.. Andrade is as follows:
"It was yesterday when the national
commissary of Cuyuni telegraphed oc-
currence Harrison and nineteen more
crossed on the left bank Of the Cuyuni
to open road. The sub-commissary at
Acarabisi protested in writing; Har-
rison insisted and the sub commissary
took him to the post of El Dorado. AS
soon as the government was informed
thereof, it ordered the release of Har-
rison and asked details"
1t is undoubtedly true that the prompt
action of the Venezuelan government
was in measure due to Mr. Olney's in
tercession through our minister at Car
acas, and it Is believed the main issue
between Great Britain and Venezuela
will be even more easy of settlement
now.
Minister Andrade says that the Cuyini
river has been the provincial boundary
and had never been crossed by the Brit
ish. All the encroachments of Venezue-
Ian territory, the rights of Venezuela
on the left bank of the Cuyuni, have
been respected by the British. Posts
have been erected by the Venezuelans
on the left bank and by the British on
the right bank, and while the country on
the right bank is in dispute that on the
left has never been disputed until Har-
rison attempted to cross the river against
the protest of the Venezuelan authori-
ties.
GROUNDS FOR HOPE
LONDON. June 26.-The Standard
Conservative says of the latest phase
of the Venezuelan question::
ut does not seem too sanguine to ex-
pect the solemnity of the affair will lead
before long to a general arrangement of
other questions between England and
Venezuela that will enable us to resume
cordial relations with state toward
which we have only sentiments of neigh
borly friendship
The Morning Post, also Conservative,
says:
1T is not comforting reflection that
the release of Mr. Harrison, the crown
surveyor, is probably largely due to the
influence of the United States. We are
accustomed to think that England can
protect her own subjects or exact the
due penalty for outrage upon them. The
exercise of the influence of the United
States is, however, tribute to the real
ity of the negotiations for arbitration
between America and ourselves.

Two Paris Women Who Daily Feed Scores
of Them.
A lady who lives near the Jardin des
Plantes, or old Partisan zoo, is a provi-
dence to the stray cats of her neighbor-
hood. She feeds daily hundred at the
Bercy wine market, where they are al
lowed to live in the cellars. This lady
believes in the transmigration of souls,
and says she feels as if she was form
erly incarnate in a woman who hated
animals. Her extreme sensibility to
their sufferings is, she also feels, the
punishment meted to her. She has in
an Clubhouse number of mutilated and
sick cats that she rescued.
Another lady attends to the cats in
the Palais de Justice, the Central mar
kets, the prefecture of police and the
Sorbonne. There are 80 cats at the
Palais de Justice. They are in the habit
of being regularly fed. When anything
prevents their benefactress coming in
the nick of tire they go out to meet
her, and follow her TO the court at the
west side of the palais. A number of po-
licemen witness her arrival, and help.
She is pleased to think that she has
awakened a spirit of humanity in the
police force. Policemen who know her
are 10th to destroy cats, or to pass them
on to vivisectors.

Old Abigail Henderson Had No Confidence

One of Depew's stories at the Buffalo

dent of the New Haven road, says the
Buffalo Courier. He is now,'' said Mr..
Depew, resting in his old age in hon
orable retirement and reflection upon
the sins which are frequent with a rail
way president. He told me the other
day that when he visited, for the first
time in 60 years, the place of his birth,
he began to inquire about the old lady
and old maid, Abigail Henderson, who
was his teacher in his early youth
before he went to the academy and
thence to Yale-and, finding no record
of her among the "reminiscences of the
town, wentto the churchyard and there
discovered that she had erected rem
iniscence of herself. It was monu-
ment, on which was inscribed: abb
gail Henderson, died aged 96. Put your
trust in the Lord and have no conf
dence in man. If Abigail had been the
recipient of the honor you have
showered on me tonight she would
have reversed that verdict. She might
not have expressed her doubt as to the
Lord, but she certainly would have been
treasured about man."
