same might be said of George. All these con-
ditions apply, and he died in the midst of a
great fight for the people. whom he loved,
on the eve of a glorious victory. 1t was his
sincerity that the people loved. They realized
his great love for humanity and respected
him for it. Whether not they approved his
idsa for reconstructing society, they loved
and admired the man.

"MARTYR TO A CAUSE"
So Say Greater New York Divines of
the Stricken Single Taxer.

NEW YORK, Oct. 31.-Rev. Heber
Newton preached at All Souls church
today on 1.-THE Ethical Issues Before
the City" He said:
The tragedy which has befallen our city
within the last few hours ought 10 decide the
issues in the heart of every honest man. A
great mind, a noble hearted man has fallen
a Martyr to the city's liberties the city S
honor. Conscious of his physical weakness
yet following the call Of the city to him. he
plunged into the thick of the fight regardless
of himself though with the presentment in
his soul which he expressed in that pathetic
word Of his Cooper Union address: 81 &C
cept your nomination, and will remain in the
fight to the end, though | die in it,
OF all that l have said as to the ethical
aspects of the issues, he was the living en-
bodiment. The intense earnestness of his
moral nature led him to plunge almost reck-
lessly into this battle for the peoples rights
and liberties. He could not be apathetic He
could not be Indifferent when the fate of a
city of 5000, 900 souls hung in the balance
This intense earnestness was one secret of his
strange power over the masses of men.
NEW YORK, Oct. 31.-"An Ideal
City was the subject of the sermon

the sympathy of his heart as well as his
physical strength, and he died azmartyr to his
cause. He is a man to hold up for emulation
and magnificent spirit. and conservation which
he gave himself. heart and SOUL to his cause
If we only had 10000 men who cared half as
much for the city's welfare as Henry George
did, it would be one of the most glorious
cities of the world. We need men who an.
preciate the Importance of making this
glorious city.

MR.. M'KINLEY ENDORSES
SPAlN'S CUBAN POLICY
He Ardently Desires Peace--Tired of
War scares and Beliigerent Resoiu-
tions-Cubans Given Hint to Ac-
cept Spain's Offer

NEW YORK, Nov 2O.-Thc World
makes the following statement: 1.-THE
World is able to say on very high
authority that President Mckinley
will tacitly approve the program for
autonomy or home rule for Cuba which
Spain now promises
"Second-That the President will
express the hope that the Cubans will
not prolong their war for complete
independence, but will accept, instead,
form of autonomy.
"Third-That if the Cubans do not
heed his advice, Spain will be given
more time without interference from
the United States.
"Fourth-The president says that
he ardently desires peace both at
home and abroad. War scares' and
'belligerency resolutions disturb bus
mess, retard prosperity, and do no
good A new congress is to be chosen
next fall and everything depends on
good times A season OF peace from
Cuban sensations is. therefore, almost
certain.
'Fifth-Spain has been informed of
McKinley's hopes and plans, and, as
the first evidence of her own kind in
tentions and good will, she pardoned
and released yesterday the American
crew of the fihbustering schooner

VICILANTES VISIT LIBERTY
Fargo, Who Was Acquitted Of ARSON,
Shot and Beaten.

LIBERTY, Mo-, Nov. 19.-About II
o'clock last night William Yates,
father-in-law of Silas D. Fargo, the
blacksmith acquitted last week of in
cendiarism, but generally believed to
be guilty, was awakened in his home
in Happy Hollow by the tramping
of many horses Before he could even
move from his bed the door was
broken open and about twenty armed
men rushed in and asked where Fargo
was. Mrs. Yates told them he was
upstairs.
A narrow stairway leads to the sec
ond story and the men filed up it.
Tom Yates, aged 20, was in the room
into which the stairway leads He
was awake He was covered with
pistols and asked if he was Fargo.
Fargo partly opened a door from
the next room aud said to the men:
stay out of here" and then closed
the door.
Two shots were fired through the
door against which Fargo was press
ing, and one of the bullets went in
his breast and through the lobe of the
left lung. He reeled and fell across
the bed.
The door was pushed open and three
of the men went in, and one of them
remarked: Now we have him and
we will finish him" They struck him
with pistols repeatedly, and then left
him covered with blood.
Fargo revived later and is now in
doctors care and may recover. He
says that he remarked to the men:
Gentlemen, l know you all, and he
believes that this is why they tried to
kill him, that they only came to give
him whipping with the object of
making him leave town. He will not
say this morning that he knew them.
He is said to have had a corn knife in
his room but could not use it after
being shot A hundred or more men
were in the crowd.
Fargo is the man who, declared at
Fond du Lac, Wis, last June that he
had burned the carriage factory here
of John J. Cav, but afterwards de-
MED committing the deed He was
indicted by the grand jury for the
present term of court, but was ac-
Quilted at the trial last week. The
people generally belioto that Fargo
was guilty.

A TRIPLE TRAGEDY.
PROMINENT CITIZENS DO
BATTLE AT WACO, TEX.
One Killed and Two Injured-The Mob
bling OF Editor Brnnn the Cause OF
the Duei-Editor OF the Times Herald

WACO, Texas, Nov. 2O.-J. w. Har-
ris. editor of the Waco Times Herald,
and w. A. Harris, his brother, on one
side, and Judge G. b. Gerald, prom
inent citizen, fought duel to the
death on the street last night at
o'clock. W. A. Harris was shot dead.
j. w. Harris was wounded fatally, his
body being paralyzed and Gerald was
shot in the side and may die.
The trouble was the outcome of the
mobbing of w. C. Brann, publisher OF
the Iconoclast. Gerald was an ex-
county Judge and one of Waco's most
prominent citizens. He had written a
bitter criticism on Baylor university
with reference to the recent mobbing
of w. c. Brann, and had filed it with
Editor Harris for publication.
Afterward he asked to have his man
uscript returned, and became incensed
at the editors delay in complying.
Bad feeling resulted and when Judge
Gerald was crossing the street at the
corner of Fourth and Austin streets at
o'clock, Editor Harris came out of
drug store and opened fire upon him.
Gerald Immediately drew his revolver
and returned the fire, hitting Harris
in the neck.
Hearing the shooting, W. A. Harris
came upon the scene and took hand
in the fusillade, shooting Gerald from
behind. Gerald pursued him into the
drug store, shooting as he ran. Har-
ris fell to the floor with the words;
''You shot me in the back" Gerald
emptied the remaining charges in his
weapon into the PROSTATE form of his
victim, killing him on the spot, and
then left the scene. A little colored
boy who stood near was shot in the
leg by stray bullet.
Editor Harris was carried into the
drug store by friends. His wife and
daughter were notified and were soon
at his side. The scene was pitiful,
the wife and daughter weeping, while
the husband and father lay PROSTATE,
unable to move muscle of his body,
or to speak. His windpipe had been
severed by bullet which injured his
spinal column. He was removed to
his home, but cannot live.
Judge Gerald was wounded in the
neck and side. While serious, his
wounds cannot be said to be neces-
sarily fatal The excitement is very
great, and public opinion seems to be
divided
Judge Gerald is an ex-member of
the legislature, postmaster of this
city, and widely known about the
state. He is 65 years of age. He was
armed with two revolvers; the Harris
brothers each had one. The Judge is
fearless, and noted as a man quick to
resent offense,

CARR SENTENCED.
The Self Confessed Child Murderer to
Hang December H.

Hang December II.
LIBERTY, Mo-, Nov. .l7.-William
Carr, the self-confessed and proven
murderer of his 3-year-old daughter,
Belle Carr, will expiate his heartless
crime upon the gallows in the Clay
county Jail at Liberty, Friday, Deem
Der II. Sentence was pronounced
upon him at Liberty yesterday morn
ing by Judge L, j. Broaddus, at the
conclusion of one of the most scathing
arraignments ever delivered from a
Missouri bench. Carr heard his doom
pronounced as one in stupor, yet
seeming to realize the awful signifi-
canoe of the judges words. At the
end he sank into a chair and was led
to his cell by deputy sheriff a mo-
ment later.
Carr made no comment upon the
sentence except to express the wish
that it could be carried out sooner.
He declared that it was too late to be
sorry. BE seemed to be very much
depressed at the absence of his wife,
for whose sake indirectly the fearful
crime was committed. Mrs. Carr
heard the announcement later with
indifference.
Sheriff Hymer has announced that
he will erect stockade about the jail
and that the execution will be wit
messed by only 200 persons.

BIG FIRE IN LONDON.
FLAMES DO DAMAGE AG-
GREGATING $25, 900, 900.
A Hundred Engines at Work-Historio
Church of st Giles, Where oliver
Cromwell Was Married., Damaged
Worst Since the One of 1866

,, LONDON, Nov. 90-One of the most
disastrous fires in Londons history
since the great fire of 1866 broke out
in q large block of buildings lying
eastward of Aldersgate street, and
between that thoroughfare and Red
Cross street, just after | o'clock yes
terday afternoon. The flames were
famed by a strong wind, and were
fed by highly infammable stocks of
Christmas fancy goods and himsy
dress materials of all descriptions that
filled every floor of the six-story build
ings in the old street. Consequently,
the conhagration gained Roadway
with surprising rapidity, and was
soon far beyond the possibility OF
being checked by the few engines
which were early on the spot For
four hours and half the flames had
their own way, and it was only after
more than a hundred engines had
worked an hour that the chief
of the fire brigade sent out the
signal that the fire was under control.
At II o'clock last night the fire was
still the scene of great excitement
Fifty engines were playing upon the
ruins, wagons were hurrying up coal,
and tons of water were pouring into
the fiery debris. Thousands of people
are trying to penetrate the Gordon
main tanned by II thousand policemen,
reinforce ments for whom were hurried
up when, soon after & o'clock, an in
crease in the outbreak led Commander
Wells to make a requisition for more
engines upon the outlying stations.
The scene must occupy the fire bril-
gade for several days, especially in
view of the grave danger of the col
lapse of shells of buildings which fall
now and again with loud report.
The latest accounts indicate that
nearly a hundred warehouses have
been destroyed while the loss will
probably reach S25, 0o0,o
1t is officially reported that $50 ware
houses have been Quilted. Nearly all
the British insurance companies are
involved, and fire insurance stocks
were practically unstable on the
Stock exchange after the fire was well
under way.
very large force of Hremen and
about twenty engines have been work
ing at high pressure all night. The
district ravaged includes part of Aus
tralian avenue, Paul's alley, Cripple
Gate churchyard, Wood Street square,
Monkwell street, Nicholi square and
Forex street, and is bounded by
Aldersgate street, Red Cross, Maiden
head court and Bradford avenue.
