ATTEMPTED ROBBERY
Man Knocked Down and ChOked by
Negro.

One of the foldest attempts at high
way robbery which has ever been at
tempted in Marietta was tried Friday
night in the side yard of the st, James
hotel.
VIM. Christopher, an old man who
lives near Tunnel, came to the city
last evening to attend the Foraker
speech. About II o'clock Mr.. Christo-
pher asked to be shown hotel, and
the st. James was pointed out to him.
When he reached the doorway of the
hotel, a colored man, julius Scott, by
name, accosted him and asked if he
were looking for the st. James hotel.
Upon receiving an affirmative answer,
the man asked Mr.. Christopher to fol-
low him, which the latter did. When
the dark yard was reached, Scott sud-
denly struck Mr. Christopher, knock
ing him down. He then kneeled on his
PROSTATE form and began choking
him. In the meantime Officer Roney
thought that the mans actions were
suspicious and came upon the scene
Just as Scott was choking Christopher.
The latter drew his knuckles and tried
to strike the officer, but the latter
pushed a gun in his face and told him
to keep quiet. A pair OF knuckles
were found on the ground and taken
as evidence. Scott was taken to the
city Jail by Officer Roney and will be
held there.
Scott was born in the city, but has
been living up to last spring in Bel
pre-, since which time he has been
working and residing in Marietta.
Christopher said that he had $50 OF
$35 when he came to town, but only
S7.45 was found on his person.

By an agreement entered into by
Chairman Dick and Chairman Long,

State Executive Committees resDect-
lively, the returns OF the vote at the
coming election on the night of Nov
ember 9th are to be compared with the
presidential vote of 1896, when Nc
Kinley's plurality in Ohio was 51,109

THE DOLLAR AND MAN.
FOREIGN TRADE.

We are manufacturing in this coun-
try more than we can consume. Where
shall we sell it and how? There is one
market, and that is in the far east, on
the other side of the globe. Japan,
China and other countries over there
are just now beginning to find out
what we produce. We are building up
a good trade with them. This Philip
pine question becomes a commercial
and business question that comes
home to every man in the United
States, to every man in the shop and
every man in the mines. (Applause.)
RUsSIA'S DESIRES.
For years Russia has been trying to
get to the sea and have a port. She
finally built a railroad which she is
now completing and by which she
goes out to the sea. While she has
been doing this, England, France and
Germany have been marketing in that
eastern country. We are now getting
some of that trade, and we're going to
keep on getting it. (Applause)
We are building up commerce with
Japan, China and the other Oriental
countries, and we have great many
people over there besides missionaries
and ministers. We have over there al
so a navy. We had it there all
through these years of peace, in order
to protect American interests. We did
not have a port or naval station where
they could stay and be at home. 1t Is
different now; we have such a place
and are going to keep it. cloud ap-
plause.) When the war was over ,haV-
ing conquered Spain, we told her to get
out of all the Eastern Hemisphere, and
she got out. (Applause,) We are2al-
ready in possession of that country
and we propose to stay there. Nong
