A fire broke out in the stable of John
Foose, on Locust street, above Twenty
seventh, about 4.45 o'clock yesterday
morning. An alarm wa turned in and
the fire department responded prompt
ly. The stable was partly filed with
straw, which burned rapidly, making
a big blaze. Several sections of hose
were used and the flames were gotten
under control soon after the firemen
arrived. The roof of a house, occupied
by the Foose family, in the vicinity of
the stable. caught fire from the heat
of the blaze and was considerably dam
aged. The stable was partly destroyed
and the loss is estimated at two or
three hundred dollars It is thought
that the IRE was Of i~ncendiary origin.

Further Details of the Sad Affair in
"A Letter Received Here.
Mr.. C. E. Morris, of this city, who
went to Southport, Maine, to attend the
funeral of Mr.. Joseph Rhees, formerly
of Wheeling, gives further details of the
drowning of Mr.. Rhees in a letter writ
ten from Southport.
The accident must have occurred
about 400 yards from the shore of Tum-
bier Island, and it is thought that Mr.,
Rhees wan to the very shore of the
island before becoming exhausted.
This theory is based on the fact that
bodies drowned in deep water are not
recovered for several days, while Mr.
Rhees' body was found in shallow
water. 1t was dark on the night of The
accident and a strong wind was blow
ing out to sea. The row boat occupied
by Mr.. Rhees has not yet been recov-
cred. There was not a bruise or mark
about the body except upon the face.
Mr.. Rhees' remains have been buried
in the cemetery at Southport.

left leg burned to the bone. physi-
clan was hastily summoned and the in
jured workman was taken to his home.
He received very careful medical atten-
ton and his wounds began TO heal rap
idly a few days later. However, the
shock of the accident seriously affected
Mr.. Gosney's heart and finally caused
his death at the time stated.

is survived by a wife and several chill
dren, all grown. He had been employ
ed as a roller at the Top mill for quite
a number of years and was efficient and

Ernest Metzner was introduced as
chairman of the meeting by Charles
Bachman, who read a short address to
the meeting, after which he introduced
the Hon. C. l.. Weems, of Ohio. pros
ecuting attorney of Belmont county.
Mr.. Weems started his address
in an endeavor to tear down William
Jennings Bryan's statement regarding
his speech at indianapolis when he
blamed the Republican party for bring
ing to the front the money question
when there were so many more I'M
portant issues to be considered. He
said that in July he would not let the
August he blamed the Republicans for
bringing 1t to the front. He said he
did not know why Mr.. Bryan accused
the Republican party of not being
sound on human rights. He then re-
counted the history of the nation from
1856, and dwelt the leadership of the
immortal Lincoln, which he held out as
the original methods after which the
present administration is formed. He
then took up the civil war, all the honor
for which he claimed for the Repubti-
cans, as he did also for the present
pension system.
He then quoted Mr.. Bryan in his
speech here in this city, in which he
asked his hearers if they thought the
Republican party could buy human
souls for two dollars and a half apiece.
He said that nc system of government
is based on ownership.
In speaking of what he termed .te
loft repeated charge" of Democratic
speakers that the American troops had,
under orders from the Republican ad-
ministration, fired upon their allies,
the Filipinos, he stated that before
the peace treaty was signed, Aguinaldo
was treating with the Spanish generals
of the island to continue and drive out
the Americans, for which, as in many
other arguments, he gave nc author
ity.
In speaking of the trusts he said he
did not know the best remedy for
them, but he did know the worst, ana
that was to vote the Democratic
ticket. He believed something VIII be

said there was one thing about 1t ne
wanted to insist on to his Democratic
friends, that it was an evil, but an evil,
poor and communities, are exempt
from. In 1883 he said the Repub-
lican National convention at Minneap-
oils called attention to the question, and
recommended that there be State leg
islation against them. The man. he
said, who fathered the measure Was
William Mckinley. He said that moth
ing could be done against them with
out uniformity of legislation of the
many Staes. He said he had a suspi-
cion the Democratic party would do
some harm against them. One way OF
curing a disease was killing the pa
tient, but we couldn' t afford to do 1t.
In closing he said: Don't worry
about Ohio. And don't fail William
Mckinley in West Virginia"
Mr.. Weems' effort was worthy of Q
more gracious attention than it re-
ceived, for during its delivery a large
portion of his hearers left. When he
began, there were about two hundred
people present. The usual escort OF
Rough Riders did escort duty to the
hall.
