Concerning the Campaign
in New York
THE Determined DEMOCRATS
INSIST ON MAKING SILVER AN
ISSUE
Party Lines Are Very Badly Broken
Up and Everybody Is Certain
of Success

Associated Press Special Wire.
NEW YORK. Oct. 1s.-Ex-Presideni
Harrison touched upon a truth regard
ing the New York municipal campaign
in the interview with Murat Halstead
which is published today. That is that
to some extent, the issue is whether
there shall be any issue beyond purely
local ones.
The question thus presented d.
vides Democrats and Republicans alike
the latter perhaps more sharply than
the former. as to both national and
state issues The strength of the Low
independents, Citizens union people, is
principally among Republicans, who
hold to the proposition that local issues
should be paramount in the city cam
paign. while the Republican organiza-
ton insists that the fight be made upon
the ST. Louis platform of the party. and
particularly the financial plank of that
document. The declaration in the Low
platform that proper compensation be
exacted for franchise granted such as for
street railways, is but one of several at
tempts by men who are for the most
part Republicans in presidential years,
to have the campaign fought on local
lines. The free silverites among the
Democracy have from the outset been
aggressively favoring exploiting the
ories of finance in the city canvass, but
these are in the minority, and were
completely overruled in the Tammany
or regular Democratic convention, and
had small consideration in the councils
of the Thomas Jefferson party, which
has made Henry George its standard
bearer. The Democrats, however, prac-
tically ignoring national issues, are do
ing some effective work on the subject
of the excise law, even elevated. ana

queries as to the justice of law which

THE SCHoFIELD MURDER
Slow Progress Made in the Trial of
butcher

butcher
SAN JOSE, Oct. 1S.-In the trial of Dan
butcher for the murder Of George Scho-
field, the state called several witnesses
today, but the only important testimony
was given by Bennie Fourcade, child
Of II years. This boy proved to be an
intelligent witness and told his story in
STRAIGHTFORWARD way. He said he met
Dan butcher and, Irving Mann, the lat
ter being a som of Mrs Schofield by her
first husband, the day before the mur-
der. They told him there had been trou-
BILE at the house and Schofield had
threatened to kilt his wife, dragging him
after her as he started for his gun. Iry-
ing Mann said he tried to get hold of
the weapon and his stepfather knocked
him down and kicked him. Irving also
related the story at the breakfast table
during which Schofleld hit his wife in
the face with a cup. butcher then told
a similar story, and, with an oath, said
he would kill Schof1eld If he ever beat his
wife again.
The transcript Of butchers testimony
| at the coroner's inquest, where he swora
that he never knew Of Schofield and his
wife having any trouble, was admitted
in evidence. This was prior to his con-
/ fession that he had killed Schofield, his
bstory at the inquest being that his EN-
ployer had been assasslnated. by some
| unknown enemy who had ridden away
on horse after committing the deed.
There are many more witnesses to be
called and at the present slow rate OF
| progress the prosecution will take sew
| eral days to complete the case.

Company.
The Wagner Brewery company have
made arrangements to remodel and re-
construct their brewery and to put in
new and improved machinery and ap-
planes. Yesterday they entered into
a contract with the Kurth Manufacture
ing company of this city for an ice
refrigerating plant comprising a potion
artificial ice machine and a Acton re-
frigerator by which the entire brewery
will be cooled. Arrangements have also
been made with the Kurth company for
several thousand feet of pipe, a So

planes by which the machinery will
be run by water power instead of
steam as heretofore. This is quite a
stroke of enterprise and it is gratifying
that the contract for the new ma
chinery has gone to a local firm.
