ROOT IN OHIO.
War Secretary Reaches Another
Stage in OratOrical Tour.


Stage in OratOrical Tour.
Akron, o., Sept. 27.-The Republican
state campaign opened in this city to-
day. An industrial parade of a large
number of uniformed marching clubs
was one of the features of the after
Moons programme. Ten thousand peo-
pie assembled at Grace Park to listen
to the speeches. The first speaker was
Secretary of War Root. He spoke on
the issues growing out of the war with
Spain, urging the reelection of d Re
publican House in order to continue
the policies of Mckinley and Roosevelt
with respect to those issues.
Senator Foraker followed Secretary
Root. He defended industrial combina-
tiops as meeting imperative require
ments, asserting that healthy public
sentiment will correct most of their
abuses. Their managers, he said, are
not criminals to be placed behind the
bars, 'as Mr.. Bryan recently told us,
but honorable and enterprising business
men,"
Senator Foraker said he believed in
tariff revision when necessary, but al
ways on protection lines. He argued
for reciprocity, especially with Cuba.
The last speaker of the day was
Senator Hanna. When he arose : the
cheering and applause was deafening.
Senator Hanna, speaking of tariff re-
vision, said:
Il believe the tariff is good enough
as it is. If the time shall come when
the tariff needs revision, it will be
done by the men who made the tariff,
and If the men whose wisdom con-
tributed to it's construction see that
conditions require a change they will
make it.
"In regard to reciprocity with Cuba,
l want to say that / was, from the
beginning, with President Mckinley.
and am now with President Roose-
welt in strong support of that policy,
which 1 consider moral question, and
1 believe that the sentiment Of the
people of the United States shall de-
mand that we shall carry it out"
Turning to the labor question. Sena-
tor Hanna said:
GAS capital has undergone a great
evolution, so, too, labor, the partner of
capital has been moving forward for
organization and l am glad to see that
organized labor has taken a higher
plane in the ranks of the workingmen.
| am sure that the leaders of these or
ganiZations are as well qualified to lead
their men as anybody. What we want
to do is to reorganize the cooperative
value of their effort What we want to
do is to break the line of prejudices
and take the laborer by the hand and
encourage MIN to fill the position he oc-
cupieA for he must prosper. and he
must have his share of the profits
There is no encouragement in work
that is founded upon the true princi-
pie of the Golden Rule. The Golden
Rule not for political purposes, but for
the purpose of humanity

ROSE KILLED WIFE
JEALOUSY THE CAUSE of HUS-
BANDS RASH ACT.
HER ADMISSION OF GUILT
MADDENS HIM AND HE SHOOTS HER
DOWN.

Both Prominent in Theatrical Cir
cIes and Dead Woman known
During Her Stage Career as Belle
Berger-The Man Charged by Rose
With Having AIienated His Wife's
Affections n Wealthy Real Estate
Flat Makes Statement.
New York. Sept. 27.-Harry Rose,
stage manager of the Garrick Theater,
shot and instantly killed his wife to-
day at their apartments in West Thir-
ty-second street. Immediately after
wards he surrendered himself at the
nearest police station, where he handed
the revolver to the sergeant, saying:
Il hav just shot my WIFE"
Jealousy was the cause of the trag-
edy, Rose, according to his statement
to the police, having detected his wife
in an intrigue and was maddened by
her admission of guilt
Mrs. Rose was formerly an actress
and was known on the stage as Belle
Berger. She was a sister of Mrs.
Charles Zimmerman whose husband is
a partner in the Philadelphia firm of
Nixon & Zimmerman.
The man charged by Rose with hav-
ing alienated the affections of his wife
is Samuel F. Adams, a wealthy real
estate dealer and a constant atten-
dant at first night performances, with
whom Rose was on terms of friendly
intimacy, and whom he says he intro
duced to his wife.
Adams was greatly overcome on
learning of Mrs Roses tragic death
but denied that there had been any
improperly in his relations with her
Rose held without bail by the cor
oneT committed to the Tomb.
Rose made the following statement
to Coroner Scholer this afternoon:
Samuel F. Adams has caused all
my trouble. Three days ago [ had alb
solute proof that he had alienated the
affections of my wife. Rather than to
live in the same house with her I
moved my belongings to the Hotel
Vendome. 1 did not return to my
apartments until this morning.
Il asked my wife why she had be-
trayed me. She said, I love Adams,
and cannot live without him. That
settled the matter for me, and l shot
her"
A negro servant in the employ of the
couple made the following statement:
There was no one in the fiat with
Mrs. Rose last night Mr.. Rose stayed
out all night. Mrs Rose retired early.
but a little later than L did.
This morning Mrs. Rose had her
breakfast in bed about o'clock. Mr..
Rose came in at $50 o'clock He had
a few words with Mrs. Rose and then
went out, banging the door after him,
as if in anger. When Mrs. Rose was
dressed ready to go out, Mr.. Rose came
hack. 1 was in the kitchen. After a
few moments 1 heard Mrs. Rose, half
shrieking, say, You wouldn't harm me,
Harry, would your and Mr.. Rose an
swered, No Then there was quiet
for twenty or thirty seconds, followed
by four reports from a revolver. Mr.
Rose left the fiat and I went in and
found Mrs. Rose lying on the floor"

A NOVEL SUIT.
ers' for Coal Properties and Coal
Roads.

VIII BE Brought to Appoint Receiv-
ers'for Coal Properties and Coal
Roads.
Boston, Sept. PA committee of citi-
zens, headed by the publishers of
Boston newspaper to-day sought re-
lief in the courts from the present
coal shortage and high prices by ask
ing for a receiver for the coal COM
panies and coal carrying roads. A
bill in equity was filed in the Supreme
Court asking that a receiver be APP
pointed for the benefit of all concern
ed upon such terms and in such man
ner, and with such agents and SER
wants, and with such rates of wages
and other conditions of employment,
and at such prices for goods produced
and sold, as the court from time to
time shall adjudge proper.
The petition is based upon the legal
theory of the coal situation given by
II. w. Chaplin. a lawyer.
Mr.. Chaplin says in support of his
position
Since the public have a right in the
mines, a right to have coal forthwith
mined for immediate consumption, and
nave the right to have that coal I'M
mediately transported out of the mine
regions by the coal carrying roads.
court of equity, if no other solution of
the difficulty is open, has authority to,
and upon the application of repre-
sentative proportion of the people, I'M
doubtedly would appoint a receiver
or receivers to take into his or their
hands the whole business now in the
hands of the anthracite coal combina-
ton, and to run it in their place"
A subpoena to serve on the defend
ants, giving notice of the bringing of
the suit, is to be taken out on Monday
by the plaintiffs lawyer, and it will
probably be returnable in November.

SEVERAL WERE KILLED.
Fatal Wreck of Freight Train in U.
p. Yards at RawIins, Wyo.


p. Yards at RawIins, Wyo.
Rawlins, Wyo.. Sept. 27.-At least
four and perhaps several other persons
We're killed by freight wreck in the
Union Pacific yards at this place early
to-day. The names of the dead so far
as are known are:
Paul w. Dayton, coal passer, resi-
dence unknown; unknown tramp;
James Welsh, fireman, RaWlins, and
John Patnoe, engineer, Rawlins.
The engineer was pinned down by the
end Of the tank resting on his legs and
for several hours he was conscious and
carried on a conversation with MEM
bers of the rescuing party, but he was
finally overcome by heat from the en-
CINE and the burning cars about him.
1t is known that several tramps were
aboard the Inflated train, and as none
have been seen about the wreckage, it
is feared they were either killed out
right or were burned to death.
The accident was caused by the fall
ure of the air-brakes to work on a
fruit train, which crashed into an en-
CINE.

A SERIOUS STRIKE.
To-day Every street Car in New Or
leans Will Stand still.

New Orleans, Sept. 27.-At daylight
tomorrow one of the largest street
car strikes in the country's history will
be inaugurated. involving every car in
the city.
About five months ago the last agree
ment between the union and the COM
panies was made on the basis of ten
hours day at is cents Since then all
the roads have been absorbed by the
Pearson syndicate and the men have
become restless under the changes, es-
pecially the introduction of larger cars,
although assured work would be found
for all.
A few days ago a demand was made
for an eight-hour day at Is cents an
hour, and the company given until 8
o'clock this afternoon to answer. The
company answered sooner, refusing the
demands on the ground that the April
agreement stood for year, and 1t pro-
vided means for the correction of any
abuses.
The union held a meeting tonight,
and it was decided to quit work at 4:30
O'clock although "a hours notice had
been promised. About 1000 men are
involved, and neither the national Off
GERS nor the Mayor were consulted
The strike is expected to bring in all
organized labor and to create much
trouble.

SUFFERING IRELAND
AFFAIRS IN LAND OF SHAMROCK
ASSUME SERIOUS ASPECT.
THE OLIVE LEAF REJECTED.
SITUATION NOW PERHAPS MORE
HOPELESS THAN EVER,

Nationalist Continue Their Anti
Government Campaign While Gov
eminent RetaIiates by Enforcing
the Crimes Act Until 1t Seem Prob
able That Almost Half of John
RedmOnd's Party VIII BE in Jail
Before Christmns-LandIOrd often
Now as Troublesome as the Nation
aIists Themselves.
London, Sept. 27-Affairs in Ireland
are attracting serious English atten-
ton, which is not characterized by
the political rancor which usually ae-
companies all Irish questions The re-
fusal of the leading landlords to at
tend Capt. Shawe-Taylor' projected
land conference has caused regret on
the part of many government support
ers, though others believe nothing
would have eventuated. The olive leaf
having been rejected, affairs are now
perhaps more hopeless than ever.
The Nationalist continue their
anti government campaign, while
the government retaliates by
enforcing the Crimes Act,
until it seems almost probable that half
of John Redmond's party will be in
Jail before Christmas. In a pessimis-
tic editorial dealing with the Earl of
Dudley's entrance to Dublin as lord
lieutenant, Thursday, the London
Times, somewhat sadly admits that
perhaps it would be better for the
country if the lord lieutenancy was
abolished, and that Ireland be govern
ed on the same lines as Scotland. This
change Of heart is not more remarka-
BILE than the bitterness towards the
cabinets policy evinced by many of
the leading Irish landlords, who for OPP
poaite reasons are now often as I'M
pleasant thorns in the governments
side as the Nationalist themselves.
