Headed by John Young Brown.

Lexington, KY, Aug. l7.-From

state, but nine, one of the most re-
markable gatherings of Kentuckians
ever assembled in the interest Of any
political cause within the borders OF
the state assembled yesterday for the
purpose of nominating ticket to OPP
pose the ticket nominated at Louisville
in June, headed by William Goebel. The
resolutions adopted declare the Louis
vile nominees not nominees of the dem
ocratic party, demand the enactment
of a law giving force and effect to Sec
ton l51 Of the state constitution, which
provides for deprivation OF Office of any
person who, to secure his nomination
or election, has been guilty Of the un.
lawful use of money; indorses the prin-

roads so as to prevent extortion; de-
mands the adjustment Of the Chinn
book bill and condemns Mckinley for

made by reclamation. Men for every
office on the state ticket were named
amid great enthusiasm.

NEGROES IN COUNCIL.

Chicago, Aug. is-The National Afro

states In his address Bishop Alexan-
der Walters the president, said:
The goal to be reached is all that is guaran-
teed TO American citizens by the constitution
and declaration OF independence liberty
and the pursuit OF happiness; the recognition
In all parts Of this broad land OF the citizenship
Of the negro; the removal Of the barriers erect
ed by prejudice TO hinder fro-Americans from
attaining their highest development. In a
word we desire the opportunity to struggle un-
fettered for the things which some Of the>white
people Of this country think are "unattainable'
by the negro, but which they are careful to keep
out OF their reach. The agencies 10 be used are
education, character, industry, wealth and agi-
tation.
Some Of the delegates say an effort
will be made to have congress pass a

Chicago, Aug. l7.--Restaurant keep
ers in Chicago are beginning to put up
.the prices of steaks and chops to their
patrons in response to the advances in
price made by the packing companies.
They claim there is no money in the
sale Of meats at the old figures and
that the example of the New York
restaurant keepers will be followed
generally in Chicago.
A dispatch from New York yesterday
stated that the general committee OF
the Greater New York Retail Butchers
association met Tuesday night and de-
cided that an advance of at least three
cents per pound in the price OF meat
was imperatively necessary to protect
the retailers against heavy loss from
the sharp advance in wholesale prices.
In most retail stores the advance has
already been put into operation, but
the action Of the committee will make
it universal, and no hope is held out
thut the increase in price will be only
temporary. The Consolidated Ice com
pany at New York has increased the
price of ice to small consumers from 25
to 30 cents per 100 pounds, and it is not
unlikely that the price will be still fur
ther increased,

FILIPINOS AGAIN ROUTED.
Early Thursday Morning the Twentieth In

Caiulet--Rebels Had 1900 Men.

Manila, Aug. l7.-The Twelfth in.
fantry left Calulet at sunrise and ad-
vanced up the railway. Capt. Evans
battalion deployed to the right of the
track and Capt. Woods to the left. Two
companies remained on the track with
the artillery. The insurgents were
found well intrenched in front of the
town, the trenches having been dug
within few days and since the oc-
cupation of Calulet. At distance
of 1900 yards, the Filipinos opened
fire. The force was estimated by
Col. Smith at 1900, although the resi-
dents afterward said it exceeded.these
figures by 1000. The enemy sent heavy
volleys against the whole American
line. Most Of their shooting, as usual,
was high, but they concentrated their
heaviest fire down the track upon
the artillery. Col. Smith kept the
whole line moving rapidly, with fire.
quent rushes. The insurgents at
tempted to flank Capt. Evans, and
therefore, two companies were sent
to the right and drove them back.
Unable to stand our continuous vol
leys, the Filipinos abandoned the
trenches and retreated through the
town northward. 1t appears that they
had only received their supply Of am
munition this morning. Had they been
attacked sooner, they could have made
little resistance. The intense heat
caused much suffering among the
Americans

CAUGHT AFTER THIRTY YEARS
7. r. Freeman, Who Was to Have Been
Hanged for Murder at Butler, Mo-, In
1869, Arrested in the Territory.

Butler Mo-, Aug l9.-The arrest OF
I. r. Freeman for the murder of James
Westbrook, in Butler, October IS, 1869,
was accomplished by Sheriff E. G.
Mudd and Deputy Marshal Lindsey at
a small town named Fanshawe, about
100 miles east of Ardmore, |. L. Free
man was sentenced to be hanged on
December II, 1859, but escaped two
days before by pulling the boards off
the ceiling Of his cell. Sheriff Mudd
learned that Freeman was passing
under the name of Spottswood and
was living at Fanshawe. The infor-
nation came through Leopold Hart, a
travelling salesman. Hart had former
ly lived in Butler and was well ac-
quainted with Freeman. When Hart
accosted Freeman the latter threatened
him and told him he had better not say
anything about it to anyone. Hart re-
ported the matter to Sheriff Mudd, at
Ardmore, several months ago, but no
action was taken. When Hart again
saw Freeman he was so sure of his man
that he again notified Mudd and the
arrest followed.
The crime is familiar one to resi-
dents of western Missouri. Freeman,

ing their condition at the close of bust
ness June 20. According to these fig
ures the total amount of money now
on deposit in these 1858 banks is S24,-
O9l, 745.O5. Similar reports for the

pared with the preceding year, is
1896, 1854. At the present time the
reserve fund of the 1858 banks amount
to 400 per cent, which exceeds all
previous records One year ago the
