McNichol went on the stand and told
Oh such pertinent facts as he knew.
me defense plead not guilty and de-
cllned to testify, and without argument
the justice held the prisoner without
pail to the grand jury. George Bow
efs was put under bond as witness.
The news of the arrest was very
generally known yesterday afternoon.
ana created considerable excitement
and much interest. If the testimony
or yesterday is true it is a
case of cold-blooded murder, and one
or the most atrocious ever perpetrated
mere. The prisoner is a we'll known
young man, apparently intelligent,
with smooth face and a good general
appearance. He sat through the pro-
ceedlngs of yesterday unmoved, ex-
cept that he glared at his brother dur
ing the latter's testimony, and to
Georges very evident embarrassment.
Immediately after the hearing Captain
McNichol and Jailor Mccormack went
to Fulton to secure the rifle with
which the murder was committed
Inc weapon will be in evidence against
the accused at the coming trial.
Friends of the accused claim there is
no truth in the story told by George
Bowers, yesterday, and say an alibi
will be proven at the proper time.
They ask for a suspension of public
judgment until the evidence for the
defense can be heard, and this is en-
tlrely reasonable.

In other words, the President can
compel the syndicate TO pay the value
of the governments claim instead of
stealing a great part of it.

THE UNION PACIFIC STEAL.

THE UNION PACIFIC STEAL.
New York Journal.
Unless President Mckinley shall do
his duty and postpone the intended
sale of the Union Pacific to the Schiff-
Morgan pool at needless loss OF $780,,
O00,UO0 to the government, the sole
chance of averting the commission OF
the crime will rest on the appearance
of an opposition syndicate as a bidder
on November 2. There is little or no
prospect of such competition. Russell
Sage informs the Journal that if the
sale shall not be deferred by the Pres
ident's order, he will not attempt to
organize company to bid, and Gen.
Samuel Thomas follows Mr.. Sage's
lead, takes back his proposition of the
previous day to contribute S10,000,000
as a starter, and Withdraws from the
field.
Perhaps Mr.. Sage and Gen. Thomas
and their associates have been blutfing,
to the end that they might be admitted
to the Schiff- Morgan pool, or perhaps,
if given time, they would really bid up
to the full amount of the government
claim. But why should not the Presi-
dent test the matter by granting de-
lay? What necessity is there for this
remarkable haste to throw away a
great property, and $40 ,00o,O0O OF the
peoples money besides?
Is it not an amusing spectacle this,
the government OF the United States
hurrying along railroad DIAL Of sim
lister character in the interest of a par
Gel of SPECTATORS, and the administra-
tbrOuOh the
Attorney General, that nothing can
stay it in it's purpose except the ap-
pearance of a rival syndicate with a
higher bid?
Is the United States utterly at the
mercy of Wall street spectators?
Have the people no rights worth con-
sidering when a few millionaires make
their wishes known to the President?
The course of the administration in
this Union Pacific swindle is beyond
defense. The contemplated sacrifice Of
the governments claim for less than
it's full value is wholly unnecessary.
Moreover, competent lawyers in the
Senate and House of Representatives
declare that the entire proceeding is
in defiance of law. 1t does not need
a iurist to tell us that equity is being
ignored.
President Mckinley cannot do this
thing and avoid consequences involving
his own good name. He is deliberately
inviting a scandal which will blacken
the administration and put the country
to shame. The loss Of the $40, 1000, 900
and the. loss of the road itself do not
constitute the worst part of the ugly
h,1cipecc rT7,a main thing The topri-
be thing, is that President of the
United States should consent to act
such a part.

THE ADMINISTRATIONS RESPON-
SIBILITY.

Pittsburg Post.
The $20,000,0O0 Union Pacific steal
has made its appearance in the Ohio
canvassgr and is causing considerable
worriment to Senators Hanna and For
aker. They made the statement, speak
ing few nights ago, that the Cleve-
land administration made the bargain,
and the Mckinley administration could
not have interfered if it would. But
the record comes up to confront one
Of these Senators. If the Mckinley
administration could not have inter-
fered, why did Foraker, as a member
of the Senate Committee on Pacific
Railroads, agree to a resolution last
July requesting the President to sus-
pend the foreclosure proceedings. and
DENYING the power of the Executive to
adhere to any such arrangement Of sale
as had been made? This resolution
was defeated by Republican filibuster-
ing, the Leading filibuster being Thurs

THE PRESIDENTS REPUTATION
AT STAKE

Erie Herald
Financiers outside the favored ring
declare that 81 per cent. forty-year
first mortgage bonds on Union Pacific
would sell at premium in open mar
ket and are moving heaven and earth
to secure fair competition. 1t is diff
cult to see how the administration can
resist the demand. President McKin-
ley cannot afford to encourage the be-
lief that he contemplates a sacrifice of
the taxpayers interests to pay a polit-
ical debt, and will best safeguard his
own reputation by granting the post
ponement asked for, thus giving the
government the advantage to be de-
