M'KINLEY SERENADED.
President Says a Few Words
From the Front Porch.

Canton. O., Nov. 6.-The Mckinley
lawn. so famous in the campaign of 1896,
was last night the scene of an enthusiast
tic demonstration similar to that which
closed the campaign of four years ago.
The president was prevailed upon to de-
part from his rule which. in the face Of
much pressure, has been infieXible all
through the campaign, and he made a
short address to his neighbors and fellow
towns1nen, free from partisanShip, but
apropos OF the election. He also intro
duced Judge Day for a short speech
from the famous front porch 1ne &C
casion was an unadvertised and uran-
nounced serenade by the Grand Army
band. with several thousand people fol-
lowing the band with loud cheers ana
hurrahs and a. glare OF red fire that IL
Illuminated the whole scene about the
Mckinley home. The band appeared up
on the streets some time after dark, and
the report that the president was to be
serenaded spread like wildhre. First
score fell in behind the band, then an
other score, then hundreds and finally,
by the time the Mckinley home was
reached thousands.
Somewhere, no one knows just how,
supply of red fire torches was secured
and they We're burning at their height
when the cheers of the crowd around the
house drowned the music of the band.
Two or three selections were played in
the street in front of the house ard
then the band was invited to the front
of Mrs A1ckinley'S parlors for another
selection. After each number there had
been calls for the president and finally
he appeared on the porch. He bowed to
the crowds in front of him and to his
wight and to his left, amid deafening
cheers. There We're calls for a speech,
and some one pulled from the vestibule
of the house a relic of the campaign of
four years ago, a Tennessee stump with
polished top and engraved emblem,
brought here by a Tennessee delegation.
The president stood upon this and spoke
as follows:
My Fellow Citizens:-I am very glad
to greet YOU once more at my old home.
This is not an hour for making speeches.
Tomorrow from one end of this vast
country to the other the American peo-
pie will speak "a voice: For William
Mckinley Tremendous applause and
cheers long continued)and we must wait
reverently and in patience for their YER
dict. / know you viii be glad to hear
a word from our fellow tOwnsman. Judge
William r. Day, who has held a conspic-
nous place in the administration over
which you called me to preside in 1896.
thank you ana bio you good night. - Tire
mendOus applauSe.)
When the president mentioned the
name of Judge Day there was another
enthusiastic ovation and the judge was
constantly interrupted by applause while
he spoke.

Chicago can offer Freedman better in
ducements than Rogers csn, as the best
trade Rogers could make for the man
pitcher, while Chicago can give Mertes
and Taylor. Mertes is one of the best
felders, batsmen and base runners in
the business, but with Lange back chi
cagO would have a surplus OF outheld-
ers, and Mertes would strengthen the
New York team at a weak point, bracing
it materially. Taylor is an Al pitcher,
but is unlucky in Chicago. He can de-
liver the goods anywhere else and would
win games by wholesale at Manhattan.
On the other hand, Davis is determined
to shove Gleason and Doyle off the New
York club Doyle is not needed here,
but Hart has always considered Gleason
a superb infielder. Nothing derogatory
to Gleason ever found a hearing with
James A. Hart, who sturdily insists that
the Kid is a ball player, a batter and
a great inhelder, good enough for any
team.

ORPHANS OF NEXT YEAR
Lineup of Chicago National League
Club For 1901.

Chicago. Nov. 6-The lineup of the
Chicago National league club for 1901,
if plans now under way are carried
through, will be as follows: Pitchers.
Griffith, Callahan, Garvin. Patterson and
Miller; catchers, Chance, DOnahue and
King; Camel, first base; Gleason, sec
ond; Bradley, third; Mccormick or
Strang, substitute; Mccarthy, left field;
Hartzel. right field; William A Lange,
center field and captain; Green. outfield
substitute.
This announcement may be termed
chimerical by fans not ION the inside
but there is every probability of the
Chicago array for next season being ex-
actly as here outlined. President Hart,
in California. has been talking to Lange
and the main obstacle the salary ques-
ton, can be bridged- LANCE, it is said
will draw $1,000 for the year. and will
positively play but this one season. The
sum is large, but no larger than was
paid to certain stars in the golden days
of a decade and more ago.
Kid Gleason is to cover second, if Hart
can outbid Philadelphia for his services

Owing to the poor showing made by
Missouri this season the attendance was

Crandall. of Nebraska. went round the
end for a touchdown. Ringer kicked
goal When the ball was again in play
the Tigers woke up and made a FURIOUS
combined attack on the Nebraska center
They rushed the ball by sheer force well
into Nebraska territory. and it was on
the 20 yard line before a long punt sent
the oval back TO the center In puntlng
the visitors showed rare skill. and sew

credit The Tigers again set up q fu-

first brilliant dash and touchdown the
pace began to tell on the Nebraska men,
They gave way Stubbornly- They played
a fierce, rough game that left Tiger

clash. There is scarcely a man ON the
Nebraska aggrega ton who is not a giant.
They lowered above their Missouri foes

soon began to manifest itself and after
a stubborn fight on their own territory
they drove the ball slowly and steadily

The ball was on the 20 yard line when
a long punt saved Missouri Within 80
seconds Nebraska. punted from center

flew back and forth continually through

After that the Missouri cause seemed
hopeless The Tigers were playing the
best game they had put up this season,
but they did not realize then. They
fought stubbornly, but without hope and

in the last quarter of the game. Ne

FIGHTING TERRY MGovERN.
Offers a Tramp Ten Dollars to Quit
Using Strong Drink.

Louisville, Nov 6.-McGovern visited
the jail in the morning with some friends
of Caleb Powers, the man convicted as
one Of the slayerS OF William Goebel-
As McGoVern walked through the corrl-
doris of the Jail he bumped into man
with a light overcoat and a broad
brimmed hat. Terry was about to ask
him where Powers was confined when
the man passed into another part of the
building. It was learned later that the
Individual McCfovern accosted was Pow
ers himself but none of the party nap
pened to know him. Powers evidently
realized that he was the object OF OBJ
servation and made himself scarce after
that.
Walking along the street today Nc
Govern was stopped by a ragged looking
Individual, full Of mixed ale, who plead
ed for enough to get a drink with Terry
turned round quick as a flash ana,
pointing his finger in the fellows face,
said: IN give You $40 If you quit
drinking" The beggar looked at Nc
Govern in a Wild-eyed way and replied:
Nav, I don't want no ten bucks; Just
give me enough to get a drink with.
Not on your life" exclaimed Terry as
he walked away, leaving the man stand
ing in the middle of the pavement, Won
dering whether he had struck d Baptist
prea cher or a temperance lecturer.
McGovern does not drink a drop, and
must be given credit for his careful
habits.
A man who had witnessed the little
incident took occasion to tell the follow
ing story on one of the prominent fight
ers of the day, who was approached in
the same manner as Terry by a tramp
on the streets of Louisville.
The fighter was going along Fourth
avenue when up stepped a horrible
specimen of the genus hobo and extend
ed his hand for a piece of money from
the fighter. Instead of giving it to him
the boxer, who was overloaded with corn
juice. grabbed the tramp by the neck
and both rolled in the gutter After this
little public exhibition Of wrestling the
big fighter walked away. An lrishman
who had witnessed the occurrence took
the trouble to ask a bystander who the
big man might be. Why, that's the
champion prize fighter of the world, :"
was the answer.
1T is, hey" said the Irishman- well,
he looks like the champion booze fighter
of the world. Away with a champion
that can't do nothing but fight booze
and Wrestle with tramps."

SUMMED UP.
Both Campaign Managers Issue
Their Final Bulletins.

Chicago. Nov. 6.-The following state
ment has been given out at the head
quarters of the Republican national
committee:
There are few surface indications at
this time dissimilar to those of four
years ago, when Mckinley swept the
country by the greatest majority prob
ably ever given to a. presidential candi-
date. The work of the Republicans dur
ing the past four weeks has been mar
velously effective. It has been marked
everywhere by completeness in detail of
machinery, harmOniuoS action and de-
sired results In the history OF the
party no better organization has ever
existed Mckinley will carry every state
which voted for Mckinley and Hobart
four years ago and certainly seven or
eight others that voted for Bryan in
1886 The alleged hopes of Croker and
Bryan as to carrying Indiana and New
York are simply following out the pro-
gramme or claiming everything in sight
for the purpose of encOura ging their fol-
lowers in close states to make the most
desperate efforts for success. The claims
Of the Republicans are based upon the
result of actual work reported by men
in the field. brought up through the pre-
einct, ward. township, city, county and
state organizations and upon actual
facts as shown by the closest vote poll
ever made by any organization"
Chairman James K Jones, of the
Democratic national committee, on the
eve of election, said:
Il have no doubt that the result Of the
ballot will be the triumphant election of
Bryan and Stevenson The Democratic
party has appealed in this campaign to
the reason and conscience of the people,
while the Republicans have appealed to
passion and prejudice In the great
forum of public opinion I have no doubt
the Democratic party has won in this
the greatest Of its national political
struggles -Four years ago, the
Democratic party was deficient in or
