CARTER TO TRY FOR FREEDOM.
Convicted Captain VIII Seek Habeas
Corpus in KANSAS.

The New York Tribune today says: Ober-
lin M Carter, formerly a captain in the
United States army, who was adjudged
guilty of embezzlement, as an army engi-
neer, and Is now serving fve-year sem
tence at Fort Leavenworth, Kansas, is
making another struggle to regain his free
dom. Through Frank Blair, an attorney of
Chicago, he is about to institute proceed
ings In the United States circuit court of
Kansas for writ of habeas corpus. To
obtain money for such an action he is said
to have mortgaged property belonging to
him in this city. Should he fail in his ap-
plication for writ of habeas corpus. the
only alternative left would be a personal
appeal to the President for pardon.

moval of T. F., e. H. and w. 7. Gaynor

and Exports of Manufactured Goods.
The activity of American manufacturers
is illustrated by the statistics of the i'm
ports of manufacturers materials and ex-
ports of manufactured goods which have
just been made public by the treasury
bureau of statistics. In the eight months
ending with August, 19O0 imports of raw
materials for use in manufacturing amount

a little over $1OO, 900 in the correspond
ing months of 1896, and the exports of
manufactured goods were 1904 ,0OO. .0OO
against $163, 600, 900 in the corresponding
months of 1896 Thus, in both importation
of raw materials for use in manufacturing
and in expectation of the finished product,
the figures OF the present year are nearly
double those of 1896
The total imports of the eight months
just ended exceed by $93, ,000, 900 the imports
of the corresponding months of 1896, while
the single item of manufacturers materials
itself shows increase of SS7 100000 Raw

Whites Kentucky Ideas.

Monroe Watchman.
Candidate A. B. White, TT. S. Col
lector of Internal Revenue, made Union
a visit last Tuesday, the first day of
Monroe Circuit Court, and delivered
the speech with which he has enter
tanned Republican audiences in other
parts of the State. Mr.. White is at
his old trade of firing the Republican
heart. lie is a little less frank than
when he vehemently advised the Re-
publican Legislative caucus a year ago
to resort to force and violence if law
full means failed to get N. B. Scott into
the U. S. Senate; but his willy words
before the public tend in the same di-
rection. Mr.. White is a native of Ohio
imbued with Kentucky Republicanism.
Taylor has carried into effect the the
cries for which White stands. The Col
lector is shrewd, plausible and I'M
scrupulous. Mr.. Freer can testify to
some of his methods.-Mr. White has
back of his candidacy his deputies and
Senator Elkins' army of ofice-holders.
He thinks he has a cinch on the nomi-
nation for Governor, but he is taking
no chances.
He was accompanied last Tuesday by
U. S. District Attorney Jos. H. Gaines,
who spoke, though briefly, in the in
terest of his candidacy for Congress.

all he knew about the affair. While he
was in Winchester, he said he was
stopped by two men, DR.. Foster and
VIM. Steele, who grabbed him by the
arms and cursed him for exposing the
Republican party. Golden replied that
he had not exposed the party. Cover
nor Brown asked him if he had not
told the two men that he knew nothing
about the affair. Golden said he might
have told them that, as he would have
said anything they wanted him to.
Governor Brown asked him if he made
a habit of saying anything a person de-
sired, to which the witness responded:
mot when I am on equal terms with
them"
Golden was then excused for a few
minutes, owing to illness.
On resuming the stand Golden said
he could not remember that he ever
heard Powers say that he intended to
harm any one. Dick Coombs, the al
legged assassin, was brought to Frank
fort, he said, by VIM. Culton, one of
the defendants.
The witness said that when he heard
on his way to Louisville with Powers,
that Governor Goebel had been shot,
he told Powers what had happened, and
Powers said that it was a dirty shame
and outrage. When asked about the
man who was given the key the norm
ing Goebel was killed, Golden said he
did not know his name, but could rec
ognize him anywhere. He said he saw
him here Saturday, and Governor
Brown asked him to get up and see if
he was in the room.
Golden looked carefully over the
large crowd, but said he did not see
him.
At 8 o'clock the defense announced
they were through with the cross-ex-
animation, and the Commonwealth
commenced it's examination in rebuff
tai.
Attorneys Campbell and Denny got
into an argument and the lie was al
most passed. Great excitiment pre-
vailed and people rushed for the doors
and windows while Judge Moore rap
ped for order. Quiet was finally re-
stored.
Governor Brown informed Col. Camp
bell that he had m~isconstrued Col.
Denny's remarks, and Col. Campbell
at once arose and a~pologized to Col.
Denny and the court.
Golden finished his testimony and
the prosecution rested. The defense
asked for time to consult with the de-
PENDANTS, and court adjourned until
8 o'clock tomorrow morning.

THE IRON BEARS.

The bears in the iron market are
working tooth and nail to break prices
of iron and are filing the press with
all sorts of sensational stories about
the alleged coming break. In this case
the wish is father to the yarn.
1t is true that lower prices for iron
and steel products would help along
the present boom, since many improve
ments demanding iron are held in
allegiance awaiting lower prices, but
it is also true that the mills of the
country are working to their utmost
capacity and still have orders reach
ing into next year and ever into 1902.
and have refused further contracts
even at present high prices. Hence it
is not apparent whence will come the
slump in iron predicted.
The bears have worked the Car
negie-Frick revelations as to the en-
ormous profits of the iron industry to
show that present high prices are ar
bltrary and not justified by any con-
dition of the trade. Whatever of truth
there may be in this applicable to the
general iron trade, the fact remains. as
stated that the mills are taxed to their
utmost and are likely to continue So
for probably a year at present high
prices. While it is charged " the
hears that these prices are the result
OF an understanding between the
various iron combines, and that the re-
ports of orders ahead at these figures
are largely fictitious, 1t is difficult to
see just how such an understanding"
could be maintained among concerns
widely separated and with diverging
interests.
1t is altogether probable that the
iron bears are talking for effect. When
orders slacken and new trade is de-
sirable it is quite certain that no Gun
derstanding" "a keep iron prices gen.
orally speaking, from seeking their
true level.

But, really, is there anything in all
this to warrant the I~ntelligepcer's gjee-
FIJI comments and cock-sure prediction
that White, the ring man, will have a
"walkover?" Aside from the fart that
a man may truthfully cay lie is not a

accept the nomination, it is significant
that the Intelligencer does not nearly
cover the field of independent POSSIBLE
tiles. Whitaker, Golf, Davis and
Mason are not the only Republicans
mentioned as anti-ring Gubernatorial
material. Col. Fast is still in the ring,
and J. NJ. Caldwell, of Huntington, is
already an active candidate against
the ring, if reports be true. More
over, the Republican party of West
Virginia is not so poverty stricken in
Gubernatorial timber that these
names comprise the only ones worthy
of mention as successors of Judge
Freer. There are plenty of excellent
Republicans who would make excel
lent candidates for Governor if they
could be induced to work their nerve

have laid low Judge Freer.
