x. of p. Fair and Festival.

The members of the subordinate
lodges of the Knights of Pythias and
their friends were accorded a pleasant
reception last evening at the fair and
festival at the Pythian Castle. There
was a. much larger attendance, and
the various attractive booths were
more literally patronized than upon
the opening night, and those in charge
have reason to feel satisfied with the
results of their well applied efforts
thus far. During the evening some ex-
cellent music was furnished and a most
enjoyable social session was spent by
those present. This evening a special
ly interesting programme will be rem
dered for the entertainment of the
various companies of the Uniformed
Rank of the order and their friends,
and many will no doubt avail them
selves of the opportunity to be present
upon the occasion.

The la Belle Strike.

1t was learned from an official
source Late last night that the strike
situation at the La Belle tin plant on
the South Side Was practically I'M
changed. The plant is still idle, caus-
ing about three hundred and fifty men,
women and boys to be off duty, and,
as previously chronicled, there will
likely be no steps taken toward bring
ing about a settlement of the unfor-
tunate difficulty between the manage
ment and the employees until the ar
rival of George Powell, the interna-
tional president of the association with
which the union of men on strike is
affiliated. Mr.. Powell, who resides at
Elwood, Ind, is expected here next

KEYNOTE SPEECHES.
Two of Them at the ~hio Republican
Convention-Hanna and Neyin.


ConventiOn-Hanna and Neyin.
COLUMBUS, o., April 24.-The Re-
publican State convention made a
great administration demonstration
here to-day. Usually there is only one
keynote speech, that of the temporary
chairman, but there were two to-day
and the one that caused more than
any other convention in the history of
the Ohio Republicans was by Senator
Hanna. 1t was very much of a Hanna
day without dissenting or d~iscordant
notes. The Senator arrived early in
the morning and was engaged all day
receiving visitors. The district meet
ings selected his friends on the new
State committee and all other COM
mittees. When Senator Hanna enter
ed the convention hall there was a
great demonstration and he was forced
to speak.
Then Hon. Robert M. Nevin was in
troduced as the temporary chairman
and he made a decisive hit.
The districts were then called for
the members Of the committees on Gre
dentials, rules, order of business, etc.
After announcing that all commit
tees would be expected to complete
their work tonight. the convention
adjourned until tomorrow.

Political
Pointers.

w. p. Robinson has decided to with>
draw from the race for the Democratic
nomination for Prosecuting Attorney.
Mr.. Robinson has given the subject
careful study, and has decided that the
very satisfactory civil business which
he has acquired must suffer during a
campaign, and ven in the event of
his. election as Prosecuting Attorney.
He prefers civil to criminal business,
and has therefore decided to leave the
field open to other Democratic attor-
neys who may aspire to- the nomina-
ton.
The Democratic suggestions meet
ings, for suggesting candidates to be
voted for at the Democratic primary
election of May 18th. will be held on
Saturday, May 5th. Suggestions will
be made for members Of the Board of
CouL-y Commissioners, Board Of Edu-
cation, Justice of the Peace, Constables,
delegates to District Delegate Conyen-
ton and State Delegate Convention,
and delegates to County and Congress
sional conventions. The meetings
will be held at 7:30 o'clock p. m, at
the places named in another column.
That was rather a notable Republi-
can coterie which assembled at the Nc
Lure, last night, around the latest jan
sen circular. There were present Con-
gresham Dovener, Col. Horkheimer,
Sheriff Richards, E. Buchanan, M. A.

TWO 4 CUTS



ers still Express Confidence.
PITTSBURG, Pa, April 24-Two
sharp cuts in iron and steel products
have been made. Foundry pig iron
No. 2 was offered to-day at $3.50 a
ton for early delivery. This is a cut
of So on quotations made a few days
ago. Quotations on this product have
been higher, but it has been possible
for some time to get it at Pittsburg
for $22.5o.
Open hearth billets have been re-
duced from $40 and SAP a ton to $3S
and $40.
1t was reported that a cut OF SIS a
ton in Bessemer pig had been made,
but this lacks confirmation. While
the price of Bessemer Is $33 1t Is stat
ed that large contracts can be placed
at $3.50.
Manufacturers here, In spite of the
recent stagnation in the market, still
maintain their belief that there will
be no general slump in iron and steel
prices. They say it is a question of
only a short time when the market
will react and prices reach a higher
mark than before.

Why Smith Let Home.

The Opera House will have for its
offering Friday night Broadhurt's
newest farce, why Smith Left
Home" Smith" has just been mar
ried to a lovely woman, and has had
no opportunity for a honeymoon, so
takes it at home. At the same time
everybody, and e%verbody's relatives
come to visit and remain with him.
He brides his cook to make eating i'm
possible under her tender care, and
finally he leaves home, but takes his
wife with him for the honeymoon, just
as the curtain is rung down. That is
the hinge upon which the fun is hung,
and there is plenty of it. There is
something of a satire, too, in the plot
that creates a laugh in itself. 1t is in
the line of labor unions, and this idea
is so well worked in with the servant
girl problem that the satire is very
quaint. The dialogue is up to Broad
bursts reputation for bright and
witty sayings.

 cult Court -
THE BEGINNING OF THE END

Frankfort, Ky, April 1.--The converting, of the April term of the Franklin circuit court tomorrow, with Judge Cantrill sitting, marks the beginning of the final legal pro- ceedings against the alleged assassin of the late Governor Goebel, and on this account makes it the most important in the his- tory in criminal trials in this state in many years. The session of the court will be taken. up mainly tomorrow with prelminaries.' The names of the grand jurors have not yet been made public. and will not be till to- morrow. Judge Cantrills charge to the grand jury, always vigorous and conserva- tive, is looked forward to with more than ordinary interest
 The grand jury will probably be in work ing order Tuesday, and of course the as% sassinaton case will be the first matter taken up. It is understood that Common weafth's Attorney Franklin, who will con- duct the presentation on the part of the state has had suIopoenas issued for -nsi- naerous important witnesses in rotation, and others will be issued soon as the court gets down to work. The names of the sus- poets who have already been arrested and whose cases have been referred to the grand jury for investigation are RepU,bE- can Secretary of State Caleb Powers, Judge ". l.. Hazelip, Lakeland; Henry Youtzey Frankfort; J. L. Sutton, Williams burg; Harland Whitaker Butler county; Silas Jones, Whteley county, and John Da- wis, Frankfort. -
 Warrants are also out for ex-Secretary of State Charles Finley, Captain John l.. Powers of Knox county, and "Tallow Dick" Combs, colored. It is not probable that any indictments will foe returned before the latter part of the week at the earliest, and if the prosecution makes good its claims the investigation will involve a large number of others, against whom fniict- ments will be returned. The general i'm pression prevails that hone of the trials will comes up at the present term, and it is understood that the defense prci5ably in every case will move for change of venue to some toher county on account of the heated state of public feeling here Re- publican Adjutant General Daniel R. Col Tier. so far as known, is the only one of the republican contestants who is in the city tonight
