ANGRY AT CLARK.
Duck Creek and kenron Hundred Demo-
Gratis Indignant at HIS Treachery.


Gratis Indignant at HIS Treachery.
Smyrna, March 14.--The action of
the three Democratic members of the
Legislature who voted for j. Edward
Addicks for United States Senator is
being discussed here by the Demo-
Gratis and Regular Republicans. More
especially is the case of Representative
j. b. Clark, who is well known here,
and has spent quite number of even
ings here since the, Legislature has
been in session.
There is strong suspicion that the
negotiations for his change to Ad-
dicks were begun here Already some
evidence has been secured and there
may be some Union Republicans of
this town who will find themselves in a
very unpleasant position when court
meets. Last evening crowd OF Demo-
crafts of Duck Creek and Kenton hun
dreds met at Clayton when the north
bound accommodation pulled in. 1t
was supposed Representative J. b.
Clark would get off there to take the
train for his home at Hartly. The
feeling against him was intense, and
had he put in an appearance trouble
would have ensued. AS it was, he got
off the train at Cheswold and took q
team for his home.
The Union Republicans here gem
orally approve of the course taken by
the three traitors, and say they showed
an independence which is commend
able.

Washington, March 13. The equip
ment bureau of the Navy Department
is now loading at Newport News 5000
tons of coal to be taken to Manila.
This coal will go through the Suez
Canal and thence to Admiral Dewey's
fleet. All the coal used by the navy
in the Philippines and all coal stored
at Honolulu is sent from the Atlantic
seaboard, mostly from Newport News or
Baltimore. The department has shipped
10000 tons to Manila since the war
began. The coal sent by steamers goes
through the Suez, and that in sailing
vessels around the Cape of Good Hope.
The trip through the canal takes
about so days and the sailing vessels
make it in five months.

Saunderstown, was murdered by some
of the local crooks about Nara agsnsett

The clews discovered are all based
upon the opinion that Capt. Orr's body
was tossed into the river which flows
under the bridge where his torn cloth

sure now that if they find the body
they will g, the highwaymen and mur-

SAN FRANCISCO, June 16-Charley
Goff of San Francisco knocked out Jim
Franey of Cincinnati in the ninth round
before the National Club tonight The
men fought at middleweight.
Goff, who had returned from the East

ed up well in every round, using par
ticularly effective jab, which he kept
pumping in the face of the rushing Fra

cious fighter, rushing matters in every
round, but was stalled off cleverly, and
failed to reach vulnerable point with
his hard right swings.
In the ninth Golf sent Franey down
three times, the last fall proving a
knockout.
Geff was 10 to favorite in the bet
ting. A good crowd was in attendance.

to check his momentum. and his head
shot against the stomach of fat Irish

basket on her arm, was coming from

ANTI-TIN TRUST.
A New Company to Fight the Big
Combine.


CHICAGO, June 16-The Record
tomorrow will say: Senator W. A.
Clarke of Montana, Charles Edwin Mil
Ter of New York and ]. E. Shawhan Of
San Francisco had a consultation at
the Auditorium Annex yesterday look
ing to the forma tion of commission to
fight the tin plate trust. 1t is proposed
to establish a plant at Joliet, ILL.,, with a
capital of $1,OO0,0O0. This capital, how
ever, does not represent the full
strength of the proposed antitrust
plant.
Mr.. Miller is son of Charles Wooster
Miller of New York, and represents not
only his father, but c. P. Huntington
and Edwin Gould in the present trans
action. Mr. Shawhan was formerly one
of the active financial powers of the
Pacific Slope, and is reported to repre-
sent several San Francisco financial in
stitutions in this DEAL There will be
further consultation of the persons
interested to-day.
Men who are close to Mr.. Miller say
that the tin plate project is merely an
item in recently concocted plan to
fight the trusts in several of the more
important industries. Edwin Gould and
c. P. Huntington are credited with pro-
jecting the scheme. c. E. Miller was
formerly the junior partner in the firm
of Huntington, Hopkins & Co. Of San
Francisco.
