FOR A REIMBURSEMENT.
Pointed Discussion Regarding Func.
tions of Epworth League.

Chicago, June 3.-The entering
wedge in the REIMBURSEMENT of the func-
tions of the Epworth league was driv-
en- home by Rev. T. j. Ladd of Ell
gin, today at a meeting of the Metho.
dist preachers of Chicago. In an adj
dress on 'The League as a Practical
Factor in Church Work." Mr.. Ladd
deplored the fact that the presence of
W~hite-haired fathers and mothers in
social meetings of young people often
resulted in DETECTING the aid of the
league and in causing religious apathy
among it's members.
Inc address was applauded by the
large audience of ministers and in the
free discussion that followed the con.
census Of opinion seemed to be that
the league too often %interferes with
exercises of the church and that it
ought to be SO regulated that 1t would
be subordlnate to older institutions,
as class meeting and prayer
meeting.

giles followed and the three dashed
their horse to a run and disappeared
before Burns could recover from the
attack. A posse was hastily organized
and came upon the highwaymen about
two miles from the scene Of the rob
berry. A heavy exchange of shots took
place between the pursuers and pur-
sued. One of the robbers was Grip
pied by q shot and was an easy vic
tim while the leader, the man with the
black google, was captured after his
ammunition was expended. Over $500
was found or the second robbers per

A LYNCH|NC POSSIBLE
Kansas City Negro Assaults. Old
Woman for Purpose of
Robbery.

Kansas City, June 3.-While rock.
ing a baby in her home at Second
street and Woodland avenue this
afternoon, Mrs. Mary Schiller, 20
years old, was struck down with a
Ratchet by a negro, who appeared sud
denly before her. Mrs. Schuler's
skull was fractured. The negro es-
capped and is being searched for by a
large number of neighbors. The mo-
tive was robbery.
n neighbors were attracted to the
Schiller house by the woman's
screams. Mrs. Schiller staggered from
the house, bleeding from a wound in
her head, inflicted with the Ratchet.
On the floor lear where she had sat
rocking the baby there was a pool of
blood. Bureau drawers had been
searched, trunks had been ransacked
and the bedding had been dragged
from the bed by the negro in search
for %valuables. Mrs. Schiller was able
to repeat weakly, "nigger, Niger"
ana tnen lapsed into Inconsistencies.
Later, during a period Of momentary
consciousness, she described her as
sallant and the crowd that had gath
cred, aided by a squad of police. be-
gan a search of the neighborhood.
The house is situated in the poor
district in the river bottom, near the
railway tracks and as the search for
the man grew in proportions the be-
lief grew that he had escaped on a
passing train. AS the news of the at
fair circulated the excitement be-
came intense and threats of lynching
were made freely. Half a dozen ar.
rests were made, but no tangible evil
dence against any of the suspects
was found.
Msr. Schiller was taken to st. Jos.
eph's hospital where an examination
disclosed Two severe, but not neces.
sarily fatal, fractures Of the skull. An
operation was considered necessary.

COMPLETE ELECTION RETURNS FOR 1900.
Official Every
COZ More Votes Cast Than I8o6-Bryan I45.o77
and Mckinley Gained H4,35o
From the Kansas City Star.

The official table of the election re-
turns of 1900 and 1896, which is given
here, is official. Where the space is
blank, as is the case sometimes in the
gubernatorial columns, there either
was no election for governor in that
state In 1900, or the vote is yet to be
officially canvassed by the state legis-
lature. From the figures given in the
table it is shown that in 1900 only
S1,607 more votes were cast than in
1896. From this it is evident that
Saany states had an increased stay-at-
home vote. This was the case princi-
P2lly in the southern states, where
~. Bryan lost more heavily than in
the other states. Mr.. Bryan's great
est gain was in New York, where
nearly 1000 votes left the republi-
can ranks This still, however, left
Mckinley a plurality of 143, sos. Mr..
Bryan's greatest loss was in Texas,
where nearly 66,223 votes changed
sides. Mr.. Bryan gained over 1896 in
Delaware. Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky,
Maryland; Massachusetts, New Hamp-
shire. New Jersey, New York, Rhode
Island, Vermont and West Virginia.
In addition to all the southern states,
Mckinley rolled up heavy gains in the
west, notably in Kansas, which gave
him 23.354 plurality, where the state
Barton County democrat. [volume] (Great Bend, Kan.) 1885-1915, 1901-01-11

gave plurality of 1899 to Bryan
four years ago. In Missouri McKin-
ley gained slightly more than 10000.
while Bryan lost about 1900. The
republicans cut the democrats plu-
rality in Missouri just 20,S99 below
1896. In the central northern states
Mckinley made heavy gains. Michi-
gan, Wisconsin, Ohio, Iowa, Mime
sofa, North Dakota, South Dakota
and Nebraska rendered aid. Nebras-
ka and South Dakota changed sides,
Nebraska, Bryan's state, going for
Mckinley by a plurality of 1922.
Michigan let Mckinley gain nearly
$4,000 votes, while Wisconsin swelled
his plurality in the state from 1O2, 612
to 106,5S1. Iowa gave him q gain of
32,991 over 1896. California changed
$4,000 votes to Mckinley, and Wash
ington changed $4,000 and stepped
from Bryan to Mckinley. In four
states only that he carried did Bryan
lead the state ticket. These states
were Missouri, Kentucky, Arkansas
and Florida In only four republican
states did Mckinley fail to lead the
ticket. These were Massachusetts,,
Ohio, Utah and Vermont. Bryan
lost from 1896 in the total vote las, O72.
Mckinley gained 114,350 votes. The
official table follows:
