Enterprise at south Bend.

Special to the Indianapolis Journal.
MUNCIE, Ind, Oct. 1.-THE bad feeling
which has existed in window glass labor
union circles in this section ever since the
Bauer factory resumed work with indie
pendent men resulted this evening. at
Eaton. in what may be a fatal shooting
ARRAY between two workmen. During a
discussion of the labor troubles, Lewis
Wilhelm knocked Andrew Cowan' down
twice. Cowan then shot Wilhelm In the
back and inflicted what may be a fatal
wound.
Marshal Mitchell. of Eaton. arrested
Cowan and brought him to Muncie for safe
keeping. while Sheriff Starr and several
deputies hurried to the scene to prevent
further trouble. There was no more dis
order tonight. but a clash is feared to-
morrow. when the Burns men from Muncie
and Hartford City are expected to be there
IN large numbers to make a final effort TO
close the factory.
Muncie doctors removed the bullet from
Wflhelm's stomach. 1t had glanced around
from a point near the hip and lodged in
the front wall. Two shots were fired, one
not taking effect. Owing TO Wilhelm being
a deshy man the doctors say his chances
for recovery are poor. Cowan says he did
the shooting simply 10 protect his own life.

LEADER DOWIE MOBBED
CHAIRS THROWN AT "KING OF ZIONv
BY LONDON STUDENTS.
His Meeting Broken Up-POlice Forced
to Fight Their Way Int the
Hall-RiOters Arrested.

LONDON, Oct. Islands of radical stu
dents this afternoon raided the meeting
held by John Alexander Dowie, the Zionist.
of Chicago. Groups of students formed in
all parts of the hall, beloved interruptions
and jeered in chorus. Mr.. Dowie violently
denounced the disturbances, and sent for
the police. The latter entered the hal! dur.
ing a scene of uproar and arrested six of
the students, which restored order.
Further disgraceful scenes took place
this evening. A body of tudents tried to
rush the platform. They threw chairs at
Dowie, who called upon the police and fled
by a side door. The police fought their way
in and endeavored to expel the rioters, ar
resting a number. Fighting was then re-
sumed, sticks and chairs being used as
weapons. The students tried to rescue
those under arrest. Ultimately more police
were summoned. and the hall was cleared.
Tomorrow the r~ingleaders will be ar
raigned at the police court, and the COM
mittee of st. Martins Town Hall, where
Dowie' meetings nave been held, will con-
suit with a representative of Scotland
Yard as to the advisability of allowing
further meetings.

indianapolis Letter in New York Press.
1t is literally true that the reports which
are coming into Republican state and ma
tional~ headquarters in the West are so fiat
tering that the party managers hesitate TO
give them out for fear of being considered
crazy or foolish. Unless all signs are false.
a landslide Is organizing which will sweep
Bryan of his feet. For several weeks after
the campaign opened the Republican lead
ers, as well as those on the opposite side.
were fearful that the silence of the great
mass Of voters BODIED evil. but it is now be-
coming evident that the people understood
their business. and instead OF being in
different or apathetic had their mind made
up, and did not feel the need of going into
commissions just TO satisfy the curiosity of
politicians or quiet their alarm.
AS soon as the canvassers got into the
field and began making close inquiry. the
distinguishing features of the situation be-
gan to develop. Then ii was, and not until
then, that the Republican leaders realized
that the fortunes of politics were again
with them, and that they were going to
have easy and smooth sailing.
The results of the canvassing I'm Indiana
are so encouraging that the figures will not
be given out officially, although two COM
plete polls have been taken, and the third
and last one is approaching completion.
Not until the reports are all in and pre-
vious statements verified or disproved will
an authorized exhibit be issued. The re-
turns thus far In indicate an increase of
twelve votes to the precinct over the Re-
publican totals Of 1896. which Is the year
upon which comparisons are based. AS re-
ports continue TO come In. this increase is
swollen instead of reduced, but still the
managers resist temptation and hold back
the facts. There are between $500 and 1900
precincts in Indiana. An increase of twelve
Republican votes TO a precinct, as COM
pared with 1896, foots up i'm the aggregate
nearly 10000. Add that to the Mckinley
OF 1900 four years ago. and we
have 5000 majority. or a total away be-
yond the widest estimates that ANYBODY
cares to make. l, however. may state that
the working members OF the national com
mittee In Chicago and the state central
committee in indianapolis confidently es-
a Mckinley majority OF Sc, 900 10 40
600. barring accidents. For publication they
prised II the State should 60 q. 600, and ada
that they would b satisfsd with 5000.
