MR.. HANNA TALKS TO COLOREEJ
VOTERS

Chicago, October ga crowd Of 1900
colored voters listened to an address to-
night by Senator Hanna at the First Reg
iment Armory. He spoke briefly, and his
remarks were at al times greeted with
applause.
There was never a time" said Senator
Hanna. when those whose citizenship
came with the birthday Of the Repubii
can party had greater cause to rejoice.
The ColOred troops are always in line and
ready for action. AS long as the Ropub-
lican party is true to the principles which
attached to it the coIOred population o.
the United States, the cUIcred vote wIiI
never be divided.
An the collateral issues injected into
this campaign by the Bryanites amount
TO just one issue, and one short sentence
tells it: Let we'll enough alone. No ma1
who loves his country, no man who T.
proud Of his citizenship, no man whr
cares for his OWL material interests car
have more than one choice on that quss

DR.. HI. M. WHARTON's CASE.
The Doctor Pleads to the Charge o.
Taking Money Illegally.

Freehold, n. j., October 73.~Three in
dictments against Rev. DR.. Henry M.
Wharton, the evangelist, of Baltimore,
who was charged with fraud and TAX
ing money Illegally, were handed up to-
day by the Monmouth county grand
jury. Dr. Wharton is charged by Miss
Clara Somers, of Ocean Grove, with
having obtained money under false pre-
lenses. Miss Somers transferred prop
erty to Mr.. Wharton to be used as a
home for children. She had the doctor
arrested upon a charge of raising
money by mortgaging 1t. His friends
asserted that there was some mistake.
DR.. Wharton, through his attorney,
states that there is really one mort
gage on the orphanage property, that
OF $4,000. This. he says, covers pri-
marily personal effects and real estate
in Baltimore more than sufficient to
pay it, and the mortgage on the Somers
property is only as collateral security.
There was a mortgage of $4,000 on the
property, he says, when he took it,
which was to have been taken up by
the mortgage in the later transac-
ton.
DR.. Wharton declares that his arrest
Is the result of a conspiracy against
him instigated by residents of Balti-
more. Since his arrest he has been in
receipt of numerous letters and tele-
grams, Offering aid. No date has yet
been set for the trial.
