BRYAN'S GREENBACK IDEA.
II Is similar to the National Debt
Paying scheme Away Back
in 1865.

The BRYAN financial scheme is appar-
entity the grand old idea that carried
the democracy of Ohio off their feet in
1865. and that was simply to print
enough greenbacks to pay of the ma
tional debt and have done with it.
This beautiful thought had a majority
in the convention that nominated Sey-
mour and Blair. The actual conversa-
ton referred to was this:
Energetic Greenbacker opened the
talk by saying: Hello, you, here; don't
you think you want some more money?
Don't you think we all ought to have
some more money!
Second Citizen Speaking mildly
Well, yes. l think I'd like to have some
more money, and
Energetic Citizen and Leading Dem
ocrat-Well, then, why don't you help
US have it? What are you standing
around for? Why don't you come and
go with us? You want more money,
and | want more money. II we all say
so we can have it. cant we? Amt the
people going TO rule this country any
more? If we say print the money
they'll print 1t, won't they! GU De
long right with us.
Second Citizen-But how about re-
deeming it? How about paying i up?
Stalward Democrat (again) redeem
it! What the devil do you want 70 re
deem it for? Let it wear out. and print
more of il.
Now. that was the grand Cd way -
paying the national debt il s.. +

Master Steamfittsrs' Combine.

Thinks the Labor Union a Perfect One
Master Steamfittsrs' Combine.
Washington. Oct. .. = Henry y.
GomberS, Of New York, secretary of
the Association of Master Steamfitters,
was before the industrial commission
yesterday explaining the plans and mo-
tives of his association. He said it in
cluded the master steamfitters in about
twenty cities and was organized to pro-
tect its members against the aggres-
sion of the labor unions. GOmberS said
he considered the labor union the most
thorough trust in existence. In sup
port of this view he said the steamfit-
terS' organization in New York limited
its membership to 800, whereas it could
easily have 200 men. This was done.
he said, To provide more work for the
men who were fortunate enough TO be
inside the union. In winter he said.
it was frequently difficult for the mas
ter steamfittterS TO get men enough 10
do the work they had on hand.
Gombers said that his association
had an agreement with the manufact-
urers of Steamfitters' supplies in vir-
tue of which the manufacturers would
not sell supplies to any one not a mas
Ter steamiitter. He said this did NOT
prevent master steamtitters outside his
association from buying supplies. He
added however. that h. did not con
slider his association a trust ia any fair
construction Of the term. In a general
way the witness thought trade arbitra
ton was good thing. but be saidthere
were a great many things thar neither

MURDER IN A CANAL BOAT
AGED CAPTAIN FOUND IN HIS BUNK
WITH SKULL CRUSHED IN

William Biddlecum. the aged captain of the
canal boat Ivy. was murdered in the cabin Of
his boat while it was lying at the Scranton coal
pier, at HudsOn-st., Jersey City. His skull had
evidently been crushed in with the side of an
axe as the blood stained weapon was lying in
a corner. where it had been hurled by the muir
derer The boat arrived last Friday from South
Amboy with a cargo of soft coal. The crime
vas discoreied late yesterday afternoon by
Christian Bic<e, harbor master who noticed
that the boat low in the water and went
aboard to warn the captain.
The murdered man was lying in his bunk His
outer garments had been removed and were
hanging hooks. Notice was given to the
police, and Captain Cody, with several detectives
started an investigation County Physician Con-
verse, who was called, said the dead man was
between sixty-five and seventy years old and
had been dead about forty-eight hours Death
was not instantaneous, as the hands We're coat
ed with blood, indicating that they had been
raised to the mans wounded head.
The name of the man was not known but the
police positive that he was William Biddle-
cum. they found a notice from an insurance
company and three letters addressed to William
ters were from Fulton n. Y. One dated March
% was addressed TO Dear Grandpa and was
signed Ella" The other from his daugh-
ter Flora the third from his daughter Nellie
dated Gilbert's Mills n. Y. April g.
When the boat arrived the captain had as a
helper a short slender. light haired youth who
was last seen Saturday, and the impression
among the neighboring boatmen was that the
captain on learning that he would be compelled
TO lie in Jersey City for a long time had dis
charged the boy.
The police believe the motive for the murder
robbery.

Since General Hunter left Ladysmith there
has been considerable speculation as to what
,o-t Of the seat of war he was being destined
,o- and It is now announced by Bennett Bur-
leigh that he has arrived at Boemfontein, al
though it is said only visit.
General Roberts's criticisms on the conduct Of
