OHIO BANK OFFICIALS
 PLACED UNDER ARREST.
CLASSIFICATION OF RECORDS THE
 CHARGE AGAINST THEM.

President and Cashier of the First Ma
 tionaI of Conneaut Accused-Insti-
 tion Closed Some Time Ago When
 Excuse Was Made That Action Was
 Due to Run owing to Rumor That
 Chadwick Paper Was Held.
 Cleveland, Dec. So- Cashier 0. c. Lil- lie and President c. M. Traver of the First National bank of Conneaut, Ohio, were arrested to-day at Conneaut by United States Marshal Chandler upon a warrant charging the bankers with a violation of the national banking laws, the specific charge in MT.

Trayer is charged in the warrant with being an accompliee of the cashier in the alleged Justification.
 Deputy United States marshals brought Cashier Lillie to the federal court here tonight, where he waived preliminary examination and gave bail in the sum of $10,000 for his appearance in court early next February. He was accompanied to court by his wife and four-year-old daughter.
 President Trayer, in charge of a dep uty marshal. is on his way to Cleveland from Conneaut. He will arrive late to- night and will probably be brought be- fore the United States officials immedi- ateIy.
 The First National bank of Conneaut closed it's doors nearly two weeks ago after 3 run upon it the preceding day. The bank has capital stock of 0,0O0. The cause of the run, the bankers said at the time, was that the report had gained currency that Mrs. Chadwick had succeeded In securing large loans from it. The bank officials deny hold ing any Chadwick papers.

ORATORS TO HELP CAUSE
OF THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY
Many Eloquent Speakers From the South Will
Devote Their Efforts to Doubtful States
Assignments Already Being Made.

Esopus, Aug. SIT is not likely that
speakers will be assigned to points in
New York until after the convention
at Saratoga late in September. Thus
the campaign in the Empire State will
begin long after lines have been form
ed in all the other commemorative of
the union. The campaign practically
opened in Illinois July II. 1t formally
will be opened Aug. 20. when Carter
Harrison gives his picnic at Sharp
shooters park
When here the other day Taggart
said the campaign would open in this
state as soon as the state ticket was
named. That being done, it is
assumed that he will start the ball
rolling before he comes east again.
He is to have all the oratory that is
needed. Most of the speakers that
will go into the "Hoosier' country
will come from the south. Gen. Thomas
c. Catchings, former chairman of the
rivers and harbOrs committee, said
when here last week that Mississippi
alone would contribute enough oratory
to carry Indiana. Private" John Allen
now one of the worlds fair commits
siOners, has written ROsemount that
he will go anywhere the committe may
ask him. Young Jim" Longstreet, a
nephew of the late Gen. Longstreet
and also of Justice l.. q. c. Lamar
from the Yozoo country. is TO make
headquarters at Terre Haute. He is
one of the ''bawn'n or'tors" of the
south and is a tireless campaigner
With him will be Louis F. SOuthwOrth
from Carlton, who stumped New York
for the Cleveland ticket in 1892.
Other speakers who will camp in
Indiana are Gen. Catchings. R. NJ. Pat
terson, of Memphis, Senator Carmack
Benton Mcmillan and former Gov. Tay,
lor. of Tennessee. Georgia is TO send
Senator Clay and Congressman Briggs
Louisiana is TO contribute Z. B. Krutt
schnitt. Gov Blanchard and Col
O'Sullivan. Texas will press into the
campaign Joseph w. Bailey and Rober-
L. Henry.
Senator Bailey is not to remain long
| in Indiana. He will be reserved fol
work in the east. Most of the time h
| will be at the WaIdorf-Astoria. HANDY

WILLING TO TAKE MONEY
FROM ANY SORT OF A TRUST
President Roosevelt Brought to Realize That
Funds for His Campaign Will be Difficult
to Secure--Consider Parker Safe.

Washington. Aug. S-Republicans
are compelled to make plans involv-
ing the strictest economy in the ar
rangement of the campaign. Money
is scarce now and it looks as though
it might be scarcer later. The presi-
dent thought there would be a great
many contributions from his admirers.
but they are not coming in and there
is nothing to indicate that they will.
1t was the presidents desire that there
should be no solicitations Of funds
from certain large corporations. This
did not obtain very long, and he is
now willing to take money from ane-
one who will offer to help out the re-
publican treasury.
The first contribution received was
from one of the largest trusts in the
country. The money was paid over to
Chairman Cortelyou and used for the
preliminary expense of the campaign.
This came from a trust which is
known TO be against the president
At least il is known the principal of
uCeTS Oh lillS INSTITUTION "Oulu prefer
| 10 see the president beaten, and if the
outlook for this becomes promising
will contribute lavishly to the Parker
campaign fund.
The treasurer of the republican ma
| tiOnal committee has intimated to Mr.
| CortelyOu that he fears that the of
| ferings will be less than one-fifth what
they were four years ago. and that
| the committee must exercise the great
| est care about running into debt
| Chairman Hanna never cared what the
debts OF the committee were. He
| knew that they would be paid. II was
his favorite plan to invite a dozen OF
| more capitalists TO dinner and tel
| them frankly what was needed. Those
present could put their names down
for as much as they saw fit and make
up the total elsewhere.

OUTRAGE STORY
American Consulate in Colombia Not
Stoned-Reyes Assumes the
Presidency.

Panama, Aug. S.-NO information
has been received at the American le-
CATION here from BogOta regarding re.
ports circulated in the United States
and said to have been sent from Pan
anna that an outbreak occurred at Bo-
gotta Friday last. when the American
consulate was stoned by a mob and
troops called out to protect Alban G..
Snyder. the charge d'affaires. The
American minister believes that if the
consulate was stoned. as alleged. it
was nothing more than the act of ir-
responsible people resulting from the
feeling against the United States
which obtains in Colombia.

Colombia, succeeding Maroquin. Com
plete calm prevails.
