SATURDAY EVENING. OCT. = 1901

THE SPEECH of ex-President Cleveland
in.Carnegie Hail, New York, last night
is generally acknowledged to have been
one of the most severe arrangements OF the
Inconsistencies and hypocrisies Of. the
republican party ever delivered he pro-
duced facts and figures which were un
answerable. The ex. President had four
thousand auditors, all of whom were en-
Unused and interested in the expose
of the hollowness of the present ad-
ministration and the paradoxies OF some
prominent followers of Mr.. Roosevelt.
His references to certain republican
luminaries. who were at times sifverites
and goldbugs, and the feeble procedures
against the trusts were iBconvertible facts,
"a all who are familiar with the history
of the past twenty years know. Mr.
Cleveland always was practical ana
conservative public man. Of late he has
been close observer of passing events,
and his summing up of the issues which
now confront the country as we'll as the
dangers from a reckless administration
naturally appeal to good people OF all
shades of political opinion.

Disorder in Vienna.

Vienna, Oct. 22.-The celebration
today of the anniversary Of the sixtieth
birthday of the Anti-Semite BurgOmaster
Lueger developed into a small sized
riot. The houses of the city were dec
GRATED with flags, and the programme
was being carried out without hitch,
when a party of socialists started dis
turbance at the unwilling of a fountain
erected in Lueger's honor. They hooted
insults at the Lueger supporters through
megaphoues, and caused a general up
roar in the streets by waving red flags,
and shouting ''down with Lueger.'
The police prevented serious outbreak.
The socialists are preparing fora demon
sfratiOn tomorrow.

IT Is a common observation that IL

the bills of women moving in certain
fashionable circles, and occasionally in

unless a modus vivendi is reached be-
tween the Russian Ambassador, Count
Arthur Cassini and his much-admired
adopted daughter, Countess Marguerite,
the national capital will miss one of its
most popular bellies this winter. The
trouble has grown out Of a multitude Of
causes, but the main reason is that the
lovely countess spends more money than
even her rich and indulgent father by
adoption wishes to supply. He has re-

MIR. CLEVELAND SPEECH.

The speech of Grover Cleveland at
Carnegie Hall, New York, last night
caused great enthusiasm which has
spread over the entire country as it was
read today by thousands. 1t is gen.
orally admitted to have been the most
forcible Inference on either side of the
present. campaign, and it will have its
effect. Mr.. Cleveland is recognized as
the foremost citizen of this republic, and
when he speaks he commands the at
tention Of the country. This speech is
remarkable for its boldness and direct
ness. He takes up the pretensions OF
the republican party-that they pre-
served the monetary standard that they
gave the country prosperity; that ''alI
the patriotism and all the governing
ability of our citizenship are found
among the members of one olitical
party". The ex-P President laughs all these
TO scorn. He makes no apologies for
bis party nor for the manner in which
he served either his party or the BUSH
ness interests of the country; but, on
the contrary, he makes direct attack up
on the intrenched lines of his political
adversaries. While Mr.. Cleyand was con-
tending for the maintenance of a srund
currency many of the republican leaders
were, be sayH, "worse than lukewarm in
the cause. Mckinley was frankly for
free silver; Roosevelt was denouncing the
single gold standard Lodge was trying to
induce England to join the United States
to re-establish silver Speaker Cannon was
bitter in bis opposition to what he now
calls sound money" Mr.. Cleveland scouts
the claim that this party is making of hav-
ing saved the national faith and honor.
Such arrogance" he says, sis not new to
the party which now seeks at the hands
of the people renewal of our govern
menrs control, but it has grown by what
it has fed upon as now shamelessly to as
sumo that the time has arrived when pop
ular heedlessness or dullness will permit
Boosting and reckless assertion to pass for
truth and reason" Referring to the boast
that this administration has crushed the
trusts, Mr. Cleveland asserts that the huge
combinations which injuriously affect the
people still flourish. His denunciation OF
the methods of the campaign is scathing.
No one he declares, can recall a campaign
Sin which the advantages of present party
control have been 50 palpably and un-
blushingly used for its perpetuation or
in which the functions belonging to the
entire American people have been more
insolently forced to do partisan service.
All the main issues of the campaign were
taken up in turn and dealt with briefly but
vigorously. Conceding the value of the
Panama canal, he declares that "not even
the great worth of the thing accomplished
will close the eyes of thoughtful Ameri-
cans to the fact that in reaching the re-
suits we have exhibited such interna-
tional ruthltssness and such sell
fish international immortality as have
lastingly debilitated our reputation for
good faith and established a precedent
which in time to come may be invoked
to Justify the most startling and repre-
hensible abandonment OF the high
ideols ~

Judge Parker speaks Again.

Esopus, N. Y, Oct. 22.--Continuing
from his porch the course of speeches
that is expected to embrace all the issues
of the campaigning, and place his hear
ers and the people of the country in in
innate touch with his political senti-
ments, Judge Parker this afternoon de-
livered an address, upon the tariff, to six
delegations which came to Rosemount TO
listen to him. In his speech Judge
Parker controverted the argument that
the tariff is necessary to compensate the
American producers for the higher wages
they pay workingmen, as compared with
the wages paid by foreign manufacturers.

Cause of LOckiaW.

LOckjaw, or tetanus, is caused by a
bacillus or germ which exists plentifuliy
ia street dirt. 1t is inactive so long as
exposed to the air, but when carried be-
meath the skin, as in the wounds caused
by percussion caps or by rusty nails, and
when the air is excluded the germ is
reused to activity and produces the most
virulent poison known. These germs
may be destroyed and all danger Of lock-
law avoided by applying Cbamberlain's
Pain Balm freely as soon as the injury is
received. Pain Balm is an antiseptc
and causes such injuries to heal without
maturation and in one-third the time re-
quired by the usual treatment. II is

These qualities are not so highly es-

as the democratic advantage in business

that some betting is being INDUCED in

Politics In Virginia.

A full test will be made Of the voting
strength of the republican party in Vir-
ginia at the election, November 8. Since
the new constitution eliminated so many
v,ters no one knows just what is the po-
li;ical status. This year the republicans
have made a nomination for Congress in
each Congressional district, and in a
number of them they are making vigor-
GUS canvasses.
The candidate in the Second district is
Robert NJ. Hughes, OF Norfolk. In the
Fourth, Charles Alexander, postmaster
at BoydtoD, is the aspirant, and in the
Sixth Samuel II. Hoge, postmaster at
Roanoke, is opposing Hon. Carter Glass
The three-cornered fight in the Tenth
gives the republicans some hope of cleo
ing Revercomb. Congressman Flood is
the regular democratic nominee in the
Tenth district, but Capt. j. n. Opie, a
Confederate soldier who has represented
the city of Stanton for many years in
the State Senate, is running as an indie
pendent. Mr.. Reyercomb is the repub-
lican nominee.
1t is thought that the national repub-
lican ticket will poll fewer votes in Vir-
ginia than in many years. Public sem
timent is strongly against the President
because of his attitude toward the negro.

Esopus yesterday of Judge Parker's

under republican rule, fortified by facts
and figures furnished by leading states
men of the opposition. In reply to the
defense of Administration expenditures
by Secretary Taft, Judge Parker declar-
ed that it is costing more money now to

that this will be repeated next month,

Gratis could have no place to meet under

pretty good, and democrats are not very
