FIRE
At West Haven Power Station Satur-
 day Morning.

At West Haven Power Station Satur'
 day Morning.
 Fire at the West Haven power station of the Winchester Avenue Railroat company paralyzed travel on the entire system for short period Saturday morning.
 The fire was discovered about o'clock by Chief Engineer Ackerill back of an engine and nowhere near any wires. The West Haven fire de partment did not dare turn on stream of water until the power had been shut off, owing to the danger of the trans mission of electricity from the motors by the water.
 The fires in the boilers were drawn and all the cars on the road came to a standstill. The fire was soon extin- guished and at 9:30 the cars were again started.
 Superintendent Pond says the actual damage by fire will not exceed S2O0.

NEBRAsKA's DULL CAMPAIGN.
General Apathy Manifested I'm Spite
of w. j. Bryan's Efforts.

Lincoln. Neb.. Nov. 2.-With a few
rallies, mainly in the county districts,
the dullest campaign known in Ne
braska for ten years, practically came
to a close tonight. There will be meet
ings Monday night, but the greatest
efforts of political managers from now
on will be directed to get
ting out the vote, which,
despite efforts for a week to
arouse some interest, seems certain to
show a falling off of 35,000 compared
with a year ago. The apathy among the
rank and file is limited to no particu-
lar party, but was conceded up to a
week ago to be most pronounced among
the Populists, who are, as usual, fused
with the Democrats on the three state
officers to be elected. This apathy, it
is claimed, has in a measure been
counteracted by the vigorous campaign
which William ]. Bryan has been con-
Quoting for the past ten days in the
east and central counties. Mr.. Bryan,
" lie paying some attention to national
issues, has made a special appeal for
a continued close alliance between the
Democrats and Populists.
over signed statements Chairman de
France of the Populists and Vice
Chairman Scott of the Democrats
claim the election of the fusion ticket
by 10000 to $1,000. Chairman Lindsay
claims a decisive Republican plurality.
He would not give any figures.

BANKERTS DESPERATE DEED.
band and Then HimseIf-Was His
Second Attack.

Amsterdam. N. Y. Nov. 2.-Frederick
Bankert, having gained admittance at
2 o'clock this morning to the apart
ments of William Green, who lived in
the second story of the house on Eliz-
abeth street, killed Green by shooting
him in the neck with a revolver and
splitting his head open with hatchet.
Bankert also shot Mrs. Green and cut
her head open with the hatchet. in
fiicting fatal wounds. and then shot
himself through the heart, dying in
stantly. Mrs. Green died later.
Bankert gained entrance to Green's
apartments by climbing up a rope lad
der on the outside of the building and
entering a window. He was a suitor
of Mrs. Green before her marriage, but
his love was unrequited. For this rea-
son he shot her on Nov 20. 1895, and
cut her with a razor, but she recov-
cred from her wounds. For this crime
Bankert was sent to state prison and
was released from there about six
months ago.
Mrs. Greene was formerly Miss Cora
Harrison. She was an accomplished
amateur actress and a handsome and
attractive woman, 26 years old. Bank
ert was 30 and Green %.

EDWARD S. STOKES DEAD.
Account of Josie Mansfield Met
Richard Croker in Jail.


Account of Josie Mansfield Met
Richard Croker in Jail.
New York. Nov. Edward S.
Stokes died this afternoon at the home
OF his sister, Mrs. McNutt.
The name of Edward S. Stokes was
inseparably connected with the tragic
killing of James Fisk, Jr., who was
shot by him in 1872 after a famous
quarrel involving large financial in
terests and the favor of Josie Mans
field, beautiful Californian. The men
met on the stairway of the old Grand
Central Hotel, now the Broadway
Central, on Jan. 6. 1872. Fisk lived
until the next morning and Stokes
gave himself up a few minutes after
the shooting. He was detained in the
Tombs and had three trials.
Stokes was finally sentenced to four
years in the penitentiary. Stokes de-
fense for the killing of Fisk was that
he had shot in self-defense after Fisk
| had drawn a revolver from his pocket
There was some evidence to bear this
out. though it was vigorously contra
dicted
Stokes served the four years, 1873
n, and then returned to this city. He
was restored to citizenship by Grover
Cleveland, then Governor. He
again embarked in business and
became interested among enterprises,
in the Hoffman House. While in pris-
on after shooting Fisk he met Rich
ard Croker and John j.. Scannell, who
were awaiting trial on charges SINH
lar to his own, and the trio formed a
friendship which lasted to the end.
In the closing days of the life Of
Stokes a woman who gave the name
of Rosamond Barclay advanced the
claim that she was married to him.
Succeeding a severe attack, which
came while he was travelling in Can
ada, Stokes had for some time been in
failing health. He was very low ten
days ago, but rallied only to sink again
He began failing last midnight and his
strength slowly ebbed away to the end
this afternoon.

DEWEY TALKS OF INQUIRY.
Evidence Will BE Thoroughly sift-
ed-speaISs Highly of His As
sociates.

Washington, Nov. Admiral Dewey
called upon President Roosevelt to- day,
but did not discuss with him the
Schley court of inquiry, except to tell
the President that the public sessions
of the court would be concluded In a
few days.
when we begin to sift the testi-
mony," said the admiral, "our real
work will begin. told Secretary Long
when he asked me to become president
of the court that / would rather go
through another battle in Manila bay.
The hardest part of this work will be
wading through the mass of testimony
and reaching our conclusion. / have
two able associates, however, and re-
alize that we are on a trial before
the country as well as Admiral Schley.
Two ADLER, better men, could not have
been secured than Admirals Benham
and Ramsay"
Admiral Dewey said that the court
probably would take up each charge
in the precept, review the testimony
and then give the facts as they find
them and give such an opinion as they
called for. He did not know that this
would be done, as he had not discussed
the case with his associates. but II
had occurred to him that this would
be a good plan. He felt, he said, that
the American people would want the
courts reasons in details and were en-
titled to know them.

PRESIDENT WILL ATTEND.


Charleston. S. C.. Nov 2.-Advices re-
ceived from Washington tonight con-
vey the very gratifying intelligence
that the President has accepted the in
vitation of the South Carolina Inter-
State and West Indian Exposition to
attend the exposition on Wednesday,
Feb. II, Lincolns birthday, and prep
arations will be made here to celebrate
the event with the most imposing GER
emonies. At the meeting of the cabinet
yesterday the President mentioned the
fact that the invitation had been ex-
tended, and the matter was fully dis
cussed, the members of the cabinet
agreeing with the President that the
date suggested for the Presidents visit
was exceptionally appropriate for a
presidential visit. Before leaving
Washington the special committee from
the exposition called on the members
of the cabinet and extended to each of
them a personal invitation to accom-
pany the President to Charleston. 1t is
understood that Mrs. Roosevelt and all
the ladies of the cabinet will attend
the exposition with the presidential
party, and it is hoped that the condi-
ton of the public business will be such
as to permit the President and his
party to spend some days at the ex-
position.

heavy and very brisk. Odds were for

aside from the volume of scattered
bets, were the large amounts of Shep-
ard money placed on the Stock Ex

offers of Shepard money, both on the
Exchange floor and on the curb" Just
before the close, with the result that
the last mayoralty bet placed on the

M'KiNLEY THE F0RGIvING.
To BE President of the Whole Peo-
pie Was His Ambition.

Washington, Nov. 2.-In the new
book "On the Great Highway" which
appeared to-day, James Creelman, af-
ter describing the deathbed of Presi-
dent Mckinley, says that when he last
visited the White House Mr.. Mckinley
said.
MY one ambitions is to be known as
the President of the whole people /
have no other desire than to win that
name. After all, no American can
harm his country without harning
himself. This government was created
by the people for themselves, and, night
or day, that thought is always in my
mind. We are all together in this
great political experiment. Some hard
things have been written and said of
me, but that sort of thing is a necess-
sary incident of the popular govern
ment. 1t must always be so. My plan
is to forget the evil and remember only
the good. I never despair of convert
ing an opponent into a supporter. The
bitterest critic have can come to see
me and he will find warm hand TO
greet him. 1t is the only way for an
American to live"
80 he lived and so he died" adds
the author. Men of all parties will
remember him as Mckinley the For
giving"

THE OHIO CAMPAIGN CLOSES.
Democrats Have Been Very Conser-
vntive in Their Choice of Speak

Cincinnati, Oct. with the excep-
ton of several meetings to be held
Monday the Ohio campaign closed to-
night. On account of the death of
President Mckinley the speaking be-
gan at later date than usual. The
Republicans had only eleven days OF
campaigning and the Democrats had
only eight days.
The Democratic speakers have been
limited to Ohio men. Early in the
campaign it was proposed to have ex-
Senator Hill of New York. Others
wanted Mr.. Bryan. When 1t was de-
cided that neither Of these distin-
guished Democrats would participate
in the Ohio campaign, the conservative
policy was extended also to Ohio
speakers, so that Democrats who had
been prominent either as gold or silver
advocates were not given assignments
in the speaking canvass. The most
noted case was John r. Mclean, the
Democratic candidate against Gov.
Nash two years ago.
1t is asserted that Congressman
Lertz, who is a neighbor of Col. Kill
bourne at Columbus. offered his SER
vices, but he was given no assign
ments.
The contest this year is squarely be-
tween the Republicans and Democrats.
There is no third party of any such
consequence as two years ago when
Mayor Sam Jones of Toledo. a non
partisan candidate, received 106.721
votes for Governor.
1t is conceded that with a full vote
the Republicans have a normal plural
ity in the state, but it is claimed the
Republicans always have much hard
er work to get out their vote on the
years following presidential elections
than the Democrats. In these "off
years" the Democrats have carried
Ohio more often than the Republicans.
Col. w. L. Taylor, the statistician
of the Democratic state headquarters,
has given out a statement in which
he estimates a total vote next Tues
day of 10000. with a Democratic plu-
rality Of 26,645 Col. Taylor says the
Democrats will carry 46 Of the ss
counties, including the FIVE large coun-
ties. and have a majority in each
of the legislative houses for election
of a senator 10 succeed Foraker.
Congressman Grosvenor has given
out an estimate on the Republican side
in which he predicts larger vote than
at the gubernatorial election two
years ago, when 920S2 votes were
cast Cen. GrosvenoF will not be sur
prised, he says. II the Republican plu-
rality reached 5000 and he VIII be
greatly surprised, he says. II II runs
under $4,000
