this morning sets out that the petit
toner William H. Marshall is a citizen
| of the United States and of Hawaii, and
is unlawfully detained of his liberty
and imprisoned by Arthur NJ. Brown
Hugh Sheriff; that the Illegally of the
| Imprisonment consists in this, that he
was put upon his trial for an Infamous

ment of a grand jury, contrary to the
provisions of the fifth amendment to
| the constitution of the United States
and that the verdict was agreed to by
only nine of the twelve jurors, con-
| trary to the provisions of the sixth
| amendment to the constitution and that
the defendant did not plead to the
charge against him on his trial in the

against him is Illegal and void, and the
verdict and judgement rendered there
on are so likewise, and the mittimua
| issued upon such void and illegal ver-
dict and judgement is void.

the hues emblematical of the various
degrees of Odd Fellowship, has or

members of one of the great secret
orders of Iowa.
Today is the first upon the official

in the hotels; names which are house.
hold words appeared upon the regis

fair, only different; immense festoons
hung from the top of high buildings to

appeared across the thorofare; LOCAL

concentrated faces; and at the close
of the day there was social function
which eclipsed anything of the kind
here for years.

An examination of the register of
the Park Hotel this morning revealed
the fact that Mr.. Dougherty had reg
istered at this place October 2 and 3,
but Moore's name could not be found.
Neither the clerk nor the proprietor
OF the place remembered of any man
by the name of Moore stopping at the
hotel about the time that Mr.. Dough-
erty did. They remember the Cir
cumstances of Mr.. Dougherty's visit
and that one man was with him a
part of the time. They do not re-

the men had left valise at the hotel
which had never been called for. The
proprietor, very courteously agreed
to open it, after the reporter had ex-
pressed desire to see the contents,
and a pair of muddy shoes and over
ais. together with soiled undercloth-
ing and two new colored shirts were
found Nothing was seen that would
indicate the name of the man who
had left the valise. The proprietor
was not sure whether Mr.. Dougherty
had left the valise or whether it was
one of the other men,, 1t must have
been Moore, however, who left in a
hurry after getting Mr.. Dougherty's
money.

Bloomfield, Oct. 15.-(Special) y
The national flag floated from the bus

ic firm in the city on Saturday which

and the every enthusiastic small boy
with deep lungs was seen astir shout
ing for Bryan in order to get his lungs
in good condition to shout for Mckinley
with double energy on Tuesday next.
The day was clear, cool and bright and
the crowd, one of the largest that ever
congregated in the city. At 1880 the
township delegations assembled near
the residence of Theodore Taylor in
the southeast part of the city, every
township in the county being repres-
ented. The procession headed by the
Bloomfield Cornet band was formed
as follows: First 16 young girls,
dressed in white, mounted on white
studs followed by a rough rider, rep
resenting the gold standard. These
were followed by a number of mounted
ladies and 16 mounted men, on white
horses heading procession of from
two to three hundred mounted men.
delegations including three cornet and
ten martial bands and thirty-five ban

portraits of Bryan carried in many

features of the parade was float &C.

The procession was estimated at
from one and one-half to two miles i'll
length. Immediately after noon the
people assembled in the court house

ed and the Bloomfield boys in uniform
were furnishing delightful music.
The principal speaker of the day
was Col. c. H. Mackey who began his
address by asking the boys to stop
blowing those horns awhile so that
can blow my bazoo," and then pro-
ceeded to elbow his bazoo" in good
democratic language which pleased
his hearers immensely. In expressing
his pleasure and appreciation of the
| large assemblage he remarked that it
showed that people of all occupations
and professions were to take part
| in the coming election. He spoke OF
the new issues which came up in every
election and going back to the slavery
question as 1t stood before the peo
| pie many years ago came up to the
question whcih confronts the voters il
the campaign, presenting first the
morey question in which, the demo
cratic party was defeated four years
Eago, and declaring that it made no diff
ference to him if money be made OF
coonskins or diamonds if this repub
lie be changed into monarchy.
Col Macley's address was followed
| by a discourse by Hon. S. B. Crane

PRES. HADLEY FOR M'kiNLEY.
Head of Vale University Makes Brief
Address to Students Club.

New Haven. Conn.,, Oct. 16.-The
visit Of Senator Chauncey M. Depew
last night to speak to the Yale stud
ents under the auspices of the lale
republican club was the means of
drawing from President Arthur T..
Hadley in sensational form the only
public declaration which he has made
on the great political questions of the
campaign, and presents statement of
how he will vote. He said to the stud
ents' club:
Gentlemen of Yale: About ten
years ago the question of imperialism
was settled when we began to build
battleships instead of land coast de-
lenses. The democratic party under
President Cleveland and Secretary OF
ney tried another plan. Now, young
men, I have a high regard for Mr..
Cleveland and high regard for Mr..
Olney. also have high personal re-
gard for Mr.. Bryan, but am reminded
of the story of the man who lost his
wife. Friend upon friend tried to con-
sole him on her loss, but he said
very simply: Well, never did like
her. But if we are to have imperial
ism I would have it by such men as
Mr.. Hay and Mr.. Root rather than by
any one l see now in the democratic
party ranks. l am a humble indi-
vidual, but, young men, / am going to
cast my vote for William Mckinley
