Says the Way to Defeat Free Silver Il to
Vote for Mckinley.
CHICAGO, July 2T.-Postmaster Hesing
thinks it would be nothing short of sui
eide for the sound money Democrats to
put up a national ticket this yeah. What
the Democrats who believe in sound
money want is to have the sound money
principle established" said Hesing.
What sense there is in putting Up a
ticket to be called sound money Demo-
cratic regular Democratic or anything
else, l am unable to see, so long as we
have a ticket in the field that we may
hope will succeed.
THAT ticket Is the ticket headed by
Mckialey. do not like TO call 1t the
Mckinley ticket, for do not indorse Nc
kinlcy's views on all questions. But this
is contest where there is but single
issue. That issue, as any intelligent man
will concede, IS money. Mckinley stands
in this election for honest money. Ali
who believe in honest money ought, in
my opinion, 10 vote for him. know this
Is the sentiment of a vast majority of the
readers of the Staats-Zeitung.

MEAGRE ELECTION RETURNS.
Jas, K. Jones Still Says That Bryan
Will Win-No Bulletins
To-day.

Yesterdays national election is
over, and both sides are claiming
the election of their candidate for
President
Last night the bulletins came in
thick and fast, from the East and
Middle states, nearly altogether ia
vorable to Mckinley. Opera house
was full of enthusiastic supporters
each, and many were the cheers
given during the evening Accord
ing to these bulletins the Republi-
cans won in Maryland, Kentucky
and Illinois-also lay claim to Ten
nessee, but later latter state was
said to be in doubt, Returns from
everywhere was very meagre. 1t
certainly looks like Mckinley won,
at this time, but later and more
full returns may give the victory to
Bryan. We can only hope this will
prove to be the case.
At midnight last night Senator
Jas. K. Jones sent out 4 signed
statement, in which he said "There
are no grounds for the CLAIMS of the
Republicans. There is no reason to
think that Bryan has failed to car
ry any state claimed by me for him,
Mr.. Bryanis certainly elected"
At 1:30 this afternoon no bulle.
tins had been received indicating
who is elected We must say serv-
ice here has been meager and un-
satisfactory; it was claimed that a
storm interfered with business from
the middle and northwestern states.
One thing is certain, we have had
little or no bulleting today, where
we should have had.N
Bryan, we think, still has some
chance of winning, though it seems
to be rather slim.

He Owns Much
Land.

The relatives and prospective heirs of Eli
Skinner. an aged and infirm land owner of
Warren township. are fighting for possession
OF the old man like dogs after a scant bone.
Mr.. Skinner Is in feeble health, and his mind
has become weakened from old age. He is
totally unable to care for himself. Until three
months ago he made his nome with his only
daughter. Mrs. Mary E. Ray. Of Cumberland.
Some OF the other relatives complained that
Mrs. Ray was not a tidy housekeeper. and
that the declining years Of her father were
not being made as pleasant as they should.
This complaint came up in the form Of a Pc
tition to the Circuit Court to have Mrs. Ray
removed from the position Of guardian.
Probate Commissioner O'Bryan heard the
petition and the accompanying complaints.
but did not see fit 10 vaeate the guardian
snip. To satisfy some of the relatives he in
structed Mrs hay TO send her father to tho
nome or a neighboring farmer TO board. The
order OF the court Was complied with, and
nothing more was heard of the affair until
yesterday, when habeas corpus proceedings
were brought by Mrs. Ray 10 recover posses
sion OF her father Laura Little and Sarah
Purcell, of Cumberland, are defendants To
the proceedings. They are distant relatives
OF Mrs Ray. She alleges in her complaint

Patro1man Ordered Before the Board
No Pay Hereafter While ON

The Board OF Safety yesterday came to the
conclusion that ex-Superintendent Powell did
not the dIscharge OF members OF
the police force simply for political reasons.
While Mr.. Powell was superintendent he rec
commended that George II. Thomas, a Demo-
crat, be discharged because he drank too
much liquor for a policeman. Shortly after
the present board came in, power Thomas
was reappointed. but now it has been discov-
cred that the action OF the other board was
taken for good reasons, and on the recon-
mendation of Superintendent Colbert and the
certificate Of the police surgeon, that Thomas
is suffering from alcoholism. he was dis
missed. John d. Hoover was also dismissed.
He is a Republican. The only thing against
him is that he is too large, and has trouble
with his feet swelling so he cannot properly
cover his beat.
Timothy Mackessey. a Democrat, who was
dismissed from the force. was ~reappointed.
and George Tomlinson was named to fill the
place OF Hoover. $50

specifically set out, shah appear to be eau

inclinatiops to carry them too rapidly In the
pace that kills. In this connection it was
also ordered that in the future when patrol
men are reported sick BY the police surgeon
and the illness was not caused by the dis
charge of their duties. or. as more specifically
stated by the board, when members are re-
ported off duty on account of dissipation,
they shall receive no pay during the time
they are off. ~ -otr
The contract for furnishing new suits to
