Philadelphia, Sept. 21.-Among the
passengers whom the steamship Waes-
land landed here today from Europe
were six colored people who were over
joyed at finding themselves again IN
the United States. They were Taylor
Smith. of Forrest City, Ark. his wife
and two children, and two friends, and
they al had Il sad story to tell of the
want. misery and hunger suffered by
the southern negro colon.sts who sail
ed from Savannah in the Lallrada last
March to try their fortunes in the
black republic.
From the day they landed at Monro-

WIFE BEATER'S DEATH.
Edward WaId Jumps Into the River and
Is Drowned While Trying to
Escape from a Mob.

Cleveland. O.. Sept. 27.--Just before
dark tonight Edward Wald, ship car
penter, came home under the influence
of liquor, quarrelled with his wife and
finally struck here. The 14-year-old
son, Edward seized his fathers arm
and entreated him to quiet down. where
upon the brute became enraged and
threw the boy down the stairway lead
ing to the street a distance OF twenty
feet. The little fellow screamed for
help and rolled out of the open doorway
into the street, writhing in commissions
DR.. c. a. Turner was summoned to at
tend the boy, and a crowd quickly col
lected to revenge the brutal outrage
Father McHale was hastened to the
scene and administered the last rites
of the church to the dying boy. Mean
while the crowd increased to a mob
which was goaded to fury by the sight
of the helpless child struggling on the
pavement, until the clamOr for revenge
swelled to an ominous roar. An I'm
promptu delegation of forty forced their
way into the house to drag out the in
human father and others were dis
patched for rope.
Wald had locked himself in a bed
room. The door was broken open and
he was dragged into the street, fighting
desperately. The police arrived before
the rope appeared and thus intercepted
a lynching. The mob gave battle to the
police, determined not to allow Wald
to escape them. During the scrlmmage
the prisoner broke loose from those
who were holding him and ran down an
alley toward the river. knowing that
his chance for life was very small If
captured. plunged into the cold, muddy
water of the Cuyahogo and was drown
ed. His body has not been recovered.
The boy will die and the wifes injuries
may also prove fatal.

GLADSTONE ON TURKEY.

More Massacres Apprehended.

Berlin, Sept. 27.-The anti-TuTkish
speech delivered by Mr.. Gladstone at
last Thursdays mass meeting in Liv
erpool, has been widely published here
and generally commented on by the
newspapers, a majority of which speak
of the address unfavorably.
The Vossische Zeitung is the most
indulgent of any of the leading jOurn-
ais in its criticisms, and goes no fur
ther than to express good words for
the prime minister of Great Britain
and hope tina; his remarks have a
SOLDERING effect upon the sultan and
the palace clique behind him. At the
same time the VOssische suggests the
possibility that the almost violent Ian
guage employed by Mr.. Gladstone may
reawaken the fanaticism of the Mos
lens and the Armenian revoluntionists
and their followers, leading to the very
results which he so strongly de-
nounced. Among the other leading
German papers the consensus of opin
ion is that the speech Is more likely to
do harm than good.
The suggestion made by Mr.. Glad
stone of a severance of the diplo-
matte relations between Great Britain
and Turkey is regarded by the papers
as fantastic and only likely to en-
courage a renewal of the maSSacreS in
the sultan's domain.

however. is the rising of the Wahese
tribe who have re-erected their fort

Interesting Days Ahead..W Oman's
Mckinley Club Of Cincinnati Among
the VisitOrs...The Wheelmen's
Clubs OF the United states Are Ex.
pected to Hold Il Parade In Canton.

Canton. O.. Sept. 21.--Major Mckin-
ley was not in the least over fatigued
by his week of hard work which he
closed with eleven speeches yesterday.
lie is in excellent spirits today and says
he has not felt better at any time dur
ing the campaign. He remained at
home during the morning, and spent the
afternoon at his sister-inla Mrs.
Barrier. where he and Mrs. Mckinley
dined. Major Mckinley expects week
of arduous work, but he will not have
as many delegations as he had to re-
ceive last week. Probably the most eN-
acting six days of the campaign here
viii be next week, when there are
large number of big delegations COM
ing from long distances to call on the
Republican candidate. Major Mckin-
ley seems to thrive on hard work and 1t
cannot be seen that the campaign has
in any way impaired his health Or
robbed him of his strength. 1t is his
purpose to make his speeches consider
ably shorter as delegations increase in
number. and this new plan was resort
ed to yesterday, when he made eleven
speeches.
INTERESTING DAYS.
Tuesday and Saturday will he inter-
esting days this week. On Tuesday a
visit from a large Woman's Mckinley
club of Cincinnati is expected. and on
Saturday the Wheelmen's Mckinley
and Hobart clubs of the United States
are expected in Canton. 1t is believed
that there will be between 5000 and TO-
900 wheelmen i'm the parade here on Sat
urday Large delegations of wheelmen
are coming from Chicago and interme
diate points, and many are expected
from Pittsburg and the east There are
six delegations booked for Saturday,
but that number will probably be dou
bled before the end of the week. Dele
cations are scheduled as late as oct. ~,
and 1t is likely they will continue to
come until the first day of November.
