BRING GOOD REPORTS
REPUBLICANS FROM DIFFERENT
PARTS OF STATE HOPEFUL.


Miles L. Mofett. committeeman from the
Sixth district, was In town yesterday. He
says the Republicans of Connersville are
getting ready TO give Senator Beverage an
ovation when he appears there on Oct. 16.
On this occasion the Marion Marching Club
will go 10 Connersville and take part in the
demonstration. Mr.. Mohett says this will
be the biggest political event ever held in
ConnersviIIe. He is very enthusiastic over
the condition Of the Sixth district. He
says there are many cases reported where
Democrats are going to vote the Repub-
lican ticket, but there are few cases where
Republicans have gone over to the Democ-
racy.
Arthur Overstreet, of Columbus. is also
very enthusiastic about the Fourth district
He says they are determined to elect Ma
than Powell to Congress in this district,
and declares that the indications are
brighter in this district for Republican
victory than they ever were before.
Other politicians from over the State talk
in similar strain about their districts and
neighborhoods. L. F. Perdue a leading
Republican of Terre Haute, says that,
while there is still some factional feeling
among the Republicans in the Fifth dis
trict. the factions are all united so far as
Mckinley is concerned and they are get
ting together on the Republican congress

THE KETTLEHAKE CASE.
Unable to Secure More Witnesses, the
Attorneys Return.


Attorneys Return.
Prosecutor Pugh, Henry Span, Henry
Seyfried and Pauper Attorney Amos Hines
returned from Noblesville yesterday, where
the trial of Frederick Kettlehake, charged
with the murder of Henry Simon, is in
progress. Prosecutor Pugh and Henry
Spaan represent the State. and Henry Sey
fried and Amos Hines the defense. Prose
cutting Attorney John Carver, of Hamilton
county, is also assisting the State. The
defense yesterday afternoon exhausted Its
witnesses as service could rot be secured
on account of the state fair, and the attor-
news came home. Both side claim they are
making strong case.
Kettlehake will not be placed on the
stand unless the court overlooks the OPEN
ing statement of Attorney Seyfried to the
Jury. when he declared that Kettlehake
was not and is not now In his right mind
The defense will likely conclude its evil
dence to-day with expert testimony. The
evidence already shown is to the effect that
Kettlehake acted unlike a sane man many
times previous to the shooting of Simon
and the depostions taken at Hot Springs
were introduced to show that he exhibited
a similar disposition there. The defense
attempted to show that Kettlehake imag-
ined some one was trying to injure him It
all times, and his ambition was to protect
himself.
The State will introduce rebuttal wit
nesses, and then all the attorneys will take
part In the argument. The court mas not
yet set a time limit for speaking, and 1t IS
not known when the case will reach the
Jury, perhaps not before the middle of next
week.

MEETING FOR coLoRED VOTERS.
The First African Baptist Church in
North indianapolis Crowded.

A Republican mass meeting. held last
night in the First African Baptist Church
at North Indianapolis. was attended by a
large and enthusiastic audience. The
church was crowded to its doors, and many
who came late were compelled to remain
on the outside. The larger portion of the
audience consisted of colored people who
live in the immediate neighborhood of the
church, and most OF these were veterans of
the civil war. There were no set speeches,
the speakers for the most part indulging
in short impromptu talks on the questions
OF the greatest import to the colored people
The meeting was presided over by ]. A
Blackwell.
Harry c. Hubbard, the first speaker.
referred TO the good record made by the
Republican party during the last four
years, saying that under the present ad-
ministration every one who wanted work
could find IL. He said the opportunities of
the colored man under a Republican admin
istration were Just as good as those of the
white man, and insisted that just the re-
verse was true under the regime of the
Democrats.
In support of his proposition he cited the
disfranchiment of the negroes in the South
ern States and compared their condition
with that OF the negroes in the Northern
States.
Mr.. Hubbard was followed by r. G.. Rob-
inson. who discussed the issues of imperial
ism and sound money. w. Il. Henderson
of South Carolina. made a strong appeal to
the colored portion OF his audience TO sup
port the Republican ticket. He said that
he did not care 10 discuss the so-caled
issues OF Imperialism. militarism and the
money question, because there was another
issue which was OF more vital Importance
He said this was the issue OF civil liberty
He spoke OF the many outrages 10 which
the colored people OF the South had been
compelled to submit. and said that the sun
port of the Democratic ticket in the North
ern States would some time bring about
the same conditions in those States He
said that he had noticed disposition on
the part OF the colored people Of the North

lasting shame. said Mr.. Henderson. ito

Of too many brave men, TO ever be sold for
two dollars on election day"
Mr.. Henderson, who is negro, related
his experiences in the South, and told of
the hardships that his race was compelled
TO suffer there, and said in conclusion that
he hoped every coiored man I'm the North
would cast his vote for Mckinley. because
his election meant the salvation of the
colored race.
Ex-Judge Stubs spoke briefly to the old
soldiers present of the days I'm which they
had fought together for the sake of "Old
Glory" and said IL was just as necessary
for them to stand shoulder to shoulder now
as it was in the DAYS OF the war.
