to a colonial or imperialistic policy,
saying that he had nearly taken
this position Mr. Vending, who
had opposed Mr. BRYAN is 1896,
made brief speech himself, yigor-
ouslv attacking the Republican pol
icy and pledging to Mr.. Bryan his
support this campaign. He said he
had known Mr.. Bryan from boy
hood and that all the money in
Wall street could not buy him.
Mr.. Bryan was received with deaf
ening applause. After this had sub

HISTORICAL SKETCH.
In 1640 one William Barnes came
from England to Middletown, Conn.
A branch of his family went to New
Jersey about 100. In 1775 William
and family came from New Jersey to
the head of the Monongahela river in
Western Virginia. His wife was an
educated German girl and the family
record, still preserved, was written by
her in beautiful German. The Barnes
family in w. Va, is therefore Eng
glish-German.

/ sati0naf.
ScorTDALE, Sept, 6.--The inquest
over the body of Norman II. King
was conducted at his home in Ever
son this afternoon.
The testimony, wnile conflicting,
was clearly against Frew, fastening
the guilt upon him Naomi Rowe,
the girl whom the quarrel was
about, testified that Erew, her broth
erin law, was in the bedroom with
her and making advances when
King, the other brother III law, came
and defended her. The quarrel be-
tween the two men continued in the
hallway until King was shot She
admitted reluctantly that Frew said
If she left the room he would shoot
her.
All the testimony addneed by the
other witnesses was to the effect
that the aggression was entirely on
the part of Harry Frcw.
The present developments of the
murder case is the attempt on the
part of the Rowe family to shield
Frew. The dead son law cannot
be brought to life but the living one
may be saved Mr. and Mrs. JOS
eph Rowe of Scottdale are the par
ents of Mrs. King, Mrs. Frew and
and Naomi Rowe
The relatives OF the murdered
man claim the testimony of Naomi
was sketehed ont for her, and that
she merely recited story that
might possibly save her brother-in-
law from the gallows.
People about the house heard
them scolding Mrs. King when she
had joined her parents for testifying
as she did. Thus a large family
connection is in an instant torn and
disrupted and the end is not yet.
Harry Frew, who now occupies q
cell in the Uniontown jail awaiting
early trial, was raised at Smithton,
and has gone through many esca.
pades.
The funeral of n. Fl. King took
p1aSc at - GtbNh. htFs IL II, pdi II
hart, pastor Of the United Brethren
Church, conducted the services and
the interment was in the Scottdale
Cemetery. King was 80 years of
age, and started in business lite
without a cent. He was a good
business man, and by perse
verance had accumulated consider
able property.
Naomi Rowe, the pretty l6.year
old girl, who is going drought this
terrible experience, has been resid-
ing with the King family about
year, and it was considered that she
was being raised and educated there.
Mr. and Mrs. King were interested
in her happiness and welfare and
were like parents to her.

SPEEDY END TO Hor WEATHER.
Storm Coming with Heavy Coast winds
aud Rain Here.

WASHINGTON, Sept The wealth
er bureau has issued the following
special storm bulletin:
"a tropical storm, which has been
moving slowly westward over the Car
ihbean sea during the last few days
crossed Cuba Tuesday night, and Is

Gulf of Mexico with marked increase
in intensity and cause dangerous
winds along the middle and east gulf,
Florida and extreme South Atlantic
coasts Thursday. Continuing north
ward movement the storm probably
will be felt as far as Norfolk by Thurs
day night and is likely to extend over
the middle Atlantic and South New
England coasts by Friday.
aside from indicated high easterly
winds along the Atlantic coast, this
disturbance promises to cause general
rains over the eastern part OF the
country, which will cover the South
Atlantic coast and gulf states Thurs.
day, the middle Atlantic states Friday
and New England Friday night and
Saturday. 1t also will terminate the
period Of high temperature which has
prevailed east Of the Mississippi. I"

DEMOCRACY OF INDUSTRY.
Rev. DR.. Lyman Abbott Discusses the
Evolution OF Labor.

NEW YORK, March 9-Rev DR.. Lyman
Abbott. Iecturing last night to workingmen
on 1.-THE Democracy of Industry" said:
my object is a very simple one. 1t is to
try to put before you the goal toward
which we ought to be moving. and some
of the steps by which to approach 1t.
have endeavored to describe by the words
Industrial Democracy the ultimate end
toward which we ought to strive. In poll
tics we have already obtained democracy
the rule of the common people. There are
bosses, know, but they remain bosses only
so long as the people consent While there
is democracy in politics. there is not
democracy in industry. ] am not going to
argue tonight whether there should be
industrial democracy or not. I am going
to assume there should be and that IL Is
the ultimate end toward which We should
work.
Outlining the evolution Of labor condi-
tions from feudalism, when the labor and
the land were owned by the feudal lord.
tc the present time when the laborer is
free TO move about as he wills. DR.. Abbott
said: "Now the capitalist owns the tools
with which the laborer must work. Now
the laborer is subject TO the man who
owns the tools. The men who do the work
should own the tools. This means that
the laborers should own the railroads and
mines on and in which they work. That
is, labor should employ capital, instead
OF capital employing labor.
DIR. Abbott suggested several steps which
might be taken immediately toward the
attainment of this end These steps In
cluded reform in taxation, abolition or all
government privileges, popular ownership
of natural monopolies, saving OF money
end a broadening OF industrial education.

DELAY UNFORTUNATE.
Lord Salisbury Refers to the Delagoa
Bay Arbitration.

Bay Arbitration.
LONDON, March 9.-Baron wenlock, in
the House of Lords, to-day asked the gov
ernment what steps are being taken TO has
ten the Delagoa bay arbitration proceed
ings. and whether the government is pre-
pared to join the United States government
in pressing for an immediate award. The
premier. Lord Salisbury, replying, agreed
that the delay was most lamentable He
said: Eve should be very glad If this liti-
cation could be ended. The tribunal is not
subject to the government in any way
whatever. 1t is quite true that we have,
again and again, under various govern
ments, tried what unofficial representations
could do to induce greater rapidity of ac-
ton. We are informed that the tribunal
declined to admit its responsibility for the
delay. The president expressed the belief
that it was due, not to the tribunal, but to
the parties concerned"
Continuing, the premier said he frankly
admitted that the government chances of
taking action were very small The delay,
he added, was very unfortunate, not only
in its bearing on the fortunes of the liti-
gants. but in the discredit which IL reflect
ed upon the principle of arbitration, from
which they had hoped great things. Lord
Salisbury then remarked: 1--WE may be
glad to do anything possible to hasten the
result, but it Is beyond our power to coerce
the action Of the tribunal"

RESPITED BY PHONE.
Execution Of Innocent Man Prevented
by a Lieutenant Governor.

HELENA. Mont, March 9-For fear the
train bearing him to Helena might not ar
rive in time to catch the Butte mail train
on which he desired to transmit to the
sheriff at that place respite for Joseph
Shafer, the innocent man under sentence to
be hanged there. Lieutenant Governor
Spriggs last night telephoned the officials
Of his intention. and upon arrival here to-
day he attached his signature TO the tenn
porary respite in order that the Supreme
Court might have an opportunity to pass
upon Shafer's appeal This is believed to
be the first instance in which a telephone
served such purpose. 1t was feared for
time that Shafer must hang even though
proved innocent, as the Governor and
Lieutenant Governor have been out OF the
State.
