was taken at the Bellevue Hotel.
which was followed by another public
reception. In the evening at 7:S0
O'Clock, Mr.. Hanna and large number
Of prominent Republicans appeared on
the Opera House stage, where he made
a speech which lasted about half an
hour. The Opera House was crowded

AT BELLAERE.

The meeting at Bellaire was held in
the Elysian Theatre, which holds about
LOCO persons, and was well filled A
short parade proceeded the meeting.
The crowd was entertained while await
ing the arrival of Hanna by c. l..
Weems, of ST. Clairsville, whose ad-
dress consisted largely of jokes more
or less ancient. Then Congressman
Danford spoke for about twenty min
utes. Both speakers were interrupted
with questions pertaining to the strike
at the, Bellaire steel plant, which they
declined TO answer, although their tor
mentors were rather persistent
Senator Hanna arrived a few min
utes past nine o'clock and little later
began his speech. 1t cannot be said
that his audience was sympathetic. He
was interrupted with questions every
few minutes, some of which were ig-
nored and others answered. The
meeting soon became q contest between
the Hannaites and anti-Hannaites, and
cheers were followed by groans. Bryan
was repeatedly cheered. This antag-
Cnistic sentiment worried the speaker
and it was not long until he lost his
temper One man he impatiently ask
ed to come upon the stage; another he
angrily ordered to shut up" third
he pointed out as that cratic indi-
vidual who is about to have spasms."
When he was not defending his record
and position he was appealing for fair
play. The anti-Hannaites, and there
were many Republicans among them,
greatly enjoyed his discontinue.
Hanna's speech was almost entirely
devoid of argument. There was
scarcely sentence in which he did not
use the pronoun 81" He did not in
sist upon the actual presence of pros
perity, as Foraker did, but promised
that that happy condition will certain
ly come in six months After being
repeatedly urged by man in the audi
ence to tell about the Union Pacific
railroad, he characterized the New
York Worlds charge that he effected
a deal with syndicate in considera-
ton of big contribution to the Re-
publican campaign fund as a lie. lie
denounced all attacks made upon him
by the "Popocratic press" as lies with
out mentioning any charges specific
ally With reference to the New York
Worlds charge, he said he had no deal
ing with any member of the syndicate
whom he knew TO be such.
Senator Hanna's speech was fiat
failure, and the meeting will do the
Republican cause no good. The abb
sence of many old line Republicans,
who are opposed to Hanna, was notice
able. In every instance the applause
during Hanna's speech was started by
the faithful on the stage. Hanna spoke
over an hour His speech was a de-
Tense of himself, denunciation of his
enemies, an eulogy of Mckinley and
Bushnell, pitiful appeal for fair play
and an exhibition CT temper.

ing men. One Of these is an immigra-
tion bill, which will protect the labor
ing men of the country. (Cheers.)
That is a fundamental idea OF the Re
publican party, and one which am in
entire sympathy with and one which
/ intend to work for.
1.-The important question in this
campaign is whether or not this pros
perity shall be secured for years to
come. All personal differences should
be put to one side Never mind who
are the candidates. We are not voting
for men-we are voting for measures,
and for the stars and stripes as against
the red flag of anarchy. That is the
duty of the hour, and if | have impress
ed upon your minds the importance OF
that duty, am glad that came among
you. You must stand shoulder to
shoulder and elbow TO elbow. prepared
to execute at all times the orders OF
your generals"
Mr. Hanna continued in this strain
for about twenty minutes, and just be-
fore three o'clock re-entered his car
riage and was driven to Bridgeport.

under his employ, who, he stated,
could not truthfully say that he had
done one Of them an injustice.
He said that in his employ there
are about 1880 men during the month
of August, and that their pay roll
amounted to s243, 900. Notwithstand-
ing this fact, they say am a labor

From this he branched off on the
return OF prosperity, how the Republi-
can party had brought it around, and
what good they intended to do the
laboring man. Following his remarks
On prosperity, he attacked the Demo-
cratic party and their candidates, abus-
ing them for their belief. Not salts
fed with this. the Popocrats were
termed damned fools and their work
damn fooiery, especially their putting
up an African Protective ticket.
Through with scandalizing his OPP
ponents, he very urgently requested
the voters of Belmont county to do
their duty on next Tuesday and elect
a representative that would vote for
a Republican Senator Here the train
arrived TO carry him to Bellaire, and
cutting his speech off abruptly, he
thanked the audience and left for Bell
aire.
t. P. Keator, an active labor leader
from Chicago, followed with an address
that was listened to by the audience,
which had dwindled down to about 400
people when Hanna left

AT THE LAUGHLIN MILL.

Mr.. Hanna arrived at Martins Fer
ry at 1915 in the morning, over the
C. & P. road, in company with Con-
gresham Danford, Judge Dunbar, of
Steubenville, and other well known
Republicans along the river front.
Several from Martins Ferry went
down to Bellaire and accompanied him
up on the train, which stopped at the
Laughlin mill, where the party got off
and Hanna made his first speech of the
day
The reception at the mill platform
was a chilly one. Not soul was at
the platform when the train stopped,
with the exception of two small boys,
and they did not even yell Here he
comes" The party walked around
to the mill office, and it was then the
mill whistle began to blow. A few
minutes later the party proceeded to
the tin plant, where a crowd of about
three or four hundred people, men, wo-
men and children, including the mill
employees, had gathered about wagon
from where the speaker made his ad-
dress.
The speech was not lengthy one, as
it only lasted for about twenty min
utes, in which the speaker made a
vain attempt of arousing genuine en-
.husiaSm.
Samuel Westwood opened the meet
ing by introducing Congressman Dam
ford as the chairman of the meeting,
who in turn introduced the Hon. Mar
Gus A. Hanna to the listeners.
In opening, Hanna said: Il feel al
most guilty of taking you men from

and labor to get men to work and not
to take them from it. / always have
been giving employment TO the labor

Of the crowd was made up of women

Senator Mark Hanna devoted the
whole Of yesterday to the three Bel
mont county towns CT Martins Ferry,
Bridgeport and Bellaire.
He came early in the morning, and
he was still at it late last night.
His five addresses sufficiently attest
the anxiety the Republican managers
have for the safety of Belmont, and
indicate that somebody is very much
afraid something is going to drop just
across the river, next Tuesday. Their
fears are we'll grounded
The junior Senator by the grace OF
Governor Bushnell spoke at the
Laughlin mill in the morning. Then
he took luncheon and held an infor-
NAL reception at Martins Ferry at
noon. At two o'clock he spoke at
Aetnaville, at three o'clock at the
Bridgeport Opera House, at seven
o'clock at the Martins Ferry Opera
House, and at nine o'clock last night
at Bellaire. He skipped West Wheel
ing, Wegee and Burlington, owing to
lack of time.
His audiences were cold as a rule
that at Aetnaville particularly SO.
The majority of his hearers were ap-
parently moved to be present by
curiosity alone, and listened to his per-
sonal explanations and political re-
citals with languid interest.
Mr. Hanna personally appears to be
standing the strain of his hard work
we'll. His movements are deliberate
and slow, but they are the natural
result of a feeling that he can take a
reasonable amount of time about
whatever he does. He is rotund OF
figure, affects black in his dress, with
dotted blue necktie above a few
square inches of immaculate shirt
front, one plain gold stud being
visible above his butrOned vest. His
general appearance is decidedly cler-
zeal, and this impression is aided by a
well modulated voice and what may be
termed an unctious delivery. He is
very diplomatic in his utterances, and
well maintains on the stump his repu-
tation as a postmaster Of politics.

BERLIN, Dec. bright Rev. Mgr.
Joseph Schroeder, late professor of dog
matte theology of the Catholic Univer-
sity at Washington, has been appointed
by the Prussian Minister of Education
and Ecclesiastical Affairs to the facul-
ty of the Catholic Academy at Muen-
ster capital of Westphalia-
Mgr Schroederis resignation OF his
professorShip at Washington was
placed in the hands of the Board of
Directors of the Catholic University in
the latter part of October, the board
receiving it on the understanding that
he would be permitted to remain at
the university until the end of the
scholastic year, when the resignation
would take effect, unless he should
sooner find another post.
The period of grace was given him
in order that he might communicate
with the Prussan Minister of Educa-
ton aud arrange for a professorship in
some German university.
At the time Mgr. Schroeder said that
he had earnestly wished to resign dur
ing his last vacation, and had been adj
vised by his physicians to do so, but
that he returned to the university be-
cause the Holy Father had advised him
to take that course. The Board of Di-
rectors, therefore, left the final deciS-
ion of the matter to the Pope. after an
official expression of its regret at the
many charges against Mgr. Schroeder

TeiXeira, a Brazilian millionaire, which
had been frustrated by the central Of
nee detectives, was revealed to-day by
the preliminary Police Court hearing,
in the prosecution of William b. Turn
bull, who claims to be an accountant,
and William +. Gould, who has been
known as a Wall-street speculator.
The name of Arturo Baldasan Y To-
pete, Spanish Consul q eneral, having
been mentioned in connection with the
scheme to eXtort the sum of 81 $40 from
Senior TeiXeira, a subpoena was issued
for his attendance at the eXaminat tion
in the case of Gould and Turnbull.
which has been set down for Tuesday.
The prisoners were committed to the
Tombs in default OF bail, and it is said
at Police Court investigation TurnbulI
will become a witness for the prosecu-
ton and by disclosing the full details
of the conspiracy, fasten the guilt on
his confederate, Gould, and implicate
the high Spanish Government official.
The money was demanded from Senior
Teixeiro, under threat to publish his
life's history, and the alleged fact that
he had violently assaulted his wife
While she was in a delicate condition.
The detectives had several interviews
with Turnbull during the course of the
negotiations to extort the money, the
amount of which was finally reduced to
$3.50 and are in possession of the let
ters written to the Brazilian.
Senior Don Teixira. who is a widower.
arrived here in October, 1896, with his
mother, Nine. Maria Louisa Teixira,
from Spain. 1t was then announced
that the Teixiras intended to invest
their fortune of about $50.0O0,OOO in
this country. They spent half a mill
lion dollars erecting a mansion at the
corner of West End avenue and 105th
street in this city. There the mother
and son have since lived quietly.
Consul Baldasamo comes into the case
because of his friendship for Gould. He
gave to Gould a letter of recommended
tion, which Gould presented to Teix-
EZRA in applying for the position of Pri-
vate Secretary. When a detective,
posing as the agent of Teixeira, con-
Quoted negotiations with Turnbull, the
latter brought Gould into the case.
Then the detective inquired at the
Spanish Consulate concerning Gould
The Consul said that he considered
Gould eminently fitted to act as Secre-
tary to Teixera.
Senior Teixeira has a reputation as an
artist He painted the celebrated pic
ture, entitled: The First Communion
of America which took prizes in Par
