Hearing in the Searles Will Case Resumed. FIERCE GALES ON THE OCEAN HONOR TO THE PEACEMAKER. Unveiling = Monument to Henry W. Grady— Gov. Hill’s Oration, Amzaxta, Ga, Oct. 21.—The monument erected in memory of Henry W. Grady on one of the principal streets of Atlanta was unveiled today in the presence of the governor of New York, the governor of Georgia and a large as- semblage of southern people. Mise Gussie Grady, tho only danghter of Henry W. Grady, drew the cord which held the canvas in place about the figure on the monu- ment. The cloth shpped from the statue, leav- ing the bronze figure revealed. It was grected with cheer after cheer by the great assembly. When the noise had in part subsided Rev. J. W. Leo was introduced to deliver the invocation. At its conclusion Hon. Fulton Colville @ statement prepared by the monu- ment committee, giving a briet history of the movement ‘for the erection of the monument. It showed that almost every state in the Union had subscribed to the fund and that tho necessary amount had been raised ‘within thirty days after Grady’s denth. The Mexican band rendered another selection and Hon. Clark Howell then stepped to the front of the platform to introduce the orator of the oc- casion, David B. Hill, governor of New York. Gov. Hill received a most enthusiastic greeting from the assemblage. GOV. HILL'S ORATION. In the course of his speech Gov. Hill said: “I do not overestimate the effect produced by asingle specch. But you knowhow it is said that Swiss guides in a snow path whisper, lest vibrations from the voice shake down a little white drift and #0 let loose an avalanch ‘Then referring to Grady'sspeech on the “New South” before the New England Society in w York he went on: t received the plaudits of the people. | Tt thrilled every part of the nation. It reunited the republic ‘in the sacred bonds of union and e. It comented the ties of friendship tween the sections stronger than when they were first formed by our forefathers during revolutionary days. “It caused a revival of pure and lofty patriot- ism. It touched the heart and conscience of the country. ‘The name of Grady was upon every lip. _He had accomplished a life work in anhour. If ho had no other claim upon the gratitude and remembrance of the American ple this single effort of his genius was suf- cient to give him undying fame and to estab- lish his memery forever in the grateful affeo- tions of his countrymen. * * * * ‘So Grady, carrying to the north with him burden of a phblic care,and byt his in- spired eloquence convineing usof ihe earnest- ness of his message, touched the chord of human sympathy and true patriotism, and bound again the loosened ties of sectional friendship. From that moment appeals to sectional prejudice fell on deaf ears; from that moment attempts to array section against section were vain. The north put away its vague fears and its animosities engendered by war and allowed expression to its quickened sympathies, which the south, perceiving and foeling, met with prompt response and frank trust. From that moment began a new era of fellowship and fraternity.” ‘Then speaking of the monument before him, he continued: “Beneath this bronze memorial and throngh- out this broad land let Henry Grady’s memory be cherished by every patriot. Let the story Of hie great work ingpire every trae American Let the example of his exalted purpose and generous effort take fairer partisans and bot- ter citizens. “The sacred task which he accomplished let no man try to undo. ‘The reconciliation which loquence brought about let no man dare to isturb. Let that hand wither which seeks again to kindle the fires of sectional strife that Grady quenched. A reunited people shall quickly avenge that insult to his memory, and smother with repronch thatincendiary effort.” 100% Hi concluded bis eloquent oration as ollo' nation in peace! A broad land disturbed no civil dissensions, threatened by noforeign enemy! A people united and homogeneous, prosperous and happy! No trace of conflict no bitter memory, no quostioned loyalty! That people rejoicing in the universal spirit fraternity, retaining only the pleasant recollections of the past, moniously: solving the problems of civiliza- tion, working out together the grand destiny of a common country—that people will ever hold in grateful remembrance the life and pub- lic sorvice of Henry W. Grady.” DESCRIPTION OF THE MONUMENT. ‘The monument was designed by Alexander Doyle. The statue is of heroic size. It represents Mr. Grady with uncovered head, standing in an easy attitude, with the ’ left foot somewhat advanced. On the right and left of the statue sre alle- gorical figures of memory and history and the figures surmount a great stone pedestal, tho sides of which bear tho following inscriptions: On the east sido— Henry W.

Onto, Oct. 21.—If the people's party vote in Ohio approaches the figures pre- dicted by itsleaders the leaders of the twogreater partics will be astonished. The Sram corre- spondent asked Claude Meeker, Gov. Camp- Dell’s private secretary, who has accompanied the governor on governor kilied that move- ment. He has been promienntly identified with ‘so many hopeless and forlorn political his name is almost synonomous with defeat. ‘To James Boyle, Commercial Gaxtie corre- ndent, who has accompanied Major Mo- in ali his campaign work, the same question was put. “Not over 15,000 votes,” was his answer. “The bottom fell out of the the third party movement tage to Gov. Campbell, and they ae will do so in this way: a ‘ith a vigorous le’s party campaign andastrong move- Ereut in favor of Batibo disaffected farmers who have left the republican party be- cause of the tariff stand of tnt party would go to Seitz, along with about an equal number of democratic voters, leaving the relative support of Campbell and McKinley about the same, But with the people's party movement » palpable failure, the democratic farmers who would have joined that move- ment had it show: sign of vigor will go back to their old party aftiliations, while the disaf- fected republican farmers, whose opposition to the republican tariff stand is implacable, will er be driven into the democratic party ead | OF will abstain from voting. DEMOCRATS IX NEED OF FUNDS. The democratic state executive committee has been working all along under the embar- rassment of lack of funds. “Our sources of revenue in the east,” said Private Secretary Meeker to Tax Sran’s correspondent, “were entirely cut off by the insertion of the silver plank in the state platform. We could not ask aid in the money centers with such a plank. The democrats could, of course, secure no money at Washington—the fruitful source of sinews of war for the republicans, and only 8 part of the stato offices are in democratic control, so that assessment on officials could not produce a large fund. Senator Brice, it is said, bas a handsome contribution to :the fund, but be- yond this the money used so far has been ve- cured in smail sums by raking and scraping. Of course the stories about fabulous sums contributed by importers to eecure the defea of McKinley are campaign ‘fakes. HAMILTON COUNTY DEMOCRATS, There is a story in circulation hero to the effect that emissaries were recently sont from the democratic executive committee rooms here to Washington to negotiate through John R. McLean for democratic harmony in Cincin- nati. Tho Enquirer's opposition to Gov. Campbell's renomination was so pronounced that McLean presumed to be a colleague of the enemies of the gov ernor in Hamilton county. It is said that Me- Lean refused to do anything, but suggested that the best thing for the democrats in Ohio to do now would be to trade the governor, who was already defeated, for the legislative ticket, and thus secure control of the next legislature. ‘The reception tendered the governor and Congressman Crisp by the Duckworth Club, the organization to which the anti-Campbeli democrats of Cincifnat: belong, Monday even- ing is an indication that a strong effort is being made to heal the differences in the party in Hamilton county. M'KINLEY AT COLUMBUS. Not since Blaine visited Columbus in 1884 has such an enthusiastic demonstration greeted a single political candidate as was seen last Saturday night, when Ma! here. It was his first and only speech of the campaign in the capital city and the ninety- sixth speech made since he took the stump. JUDGE THURMAN FEEBLE. Judge Allen G.

Cievetaxn, Onto, Oct. 21.—Fire broke out in a large four-story building at the corner of | C Center and Winslow streets at 3:30 o'clock this morning, and a loss of 100,00) resulted. ‘The upper floor of the block was occupied by the Oxidized Acid Company and it is supposed that the fire started in this department as the result of spontaneous combustion. Acids de- posited in big tanks on the top floor caused & series of terrific explosions, and scattered bricks, stones and timbers in’ all directions. Several firemen narrowly escaped being fatally injured by the flying missiles. ‘The first, sec- ond and third floors wore occupied by Kovalton Machine Company and the Vieduct Brass Com- ny. ‘The insurance will cover about two- irds of the loss. New Youu, Oct. 21.—Fire broke out in the Wallabout Market in Brooklyn last night and it took the firemen until daylight to extinguish the flames. Most of the buildings are one- story frame structures and they iell an easy prey to the flames. Nearly half of the buildings in the market were burned to the ground. ‘The total loss is estimated at $65,000, which 18 covered by in- surance. pane es PROF. RUSSELL'S ALASKAN TRIP.

A carload of passengers on the Belt line, bound for the bureau of engraving and print- ing, had a thrilling experience yesterday. Their story is told well ina letter which they sent to the District Commissioners today, as follows: Yesterday morning, about 7:40 o'clock, as car No. $2 of the Belt tine, in which all of the undersigned were passengers, was about to cross, wertward, the tracks of the Penneyl- vania railroad ‘at 6th street avd Maryland avenue southwest the gate keeper suddenly, but too late, began to lower the poles or guards to prevent vehicles and pedestrians from cross- ing the tracks of the steam cars, and the car horse became frighted at an approaching en- gine (going north) and was nearly beyond the control of the driver. By this time the locomotive was within a fow yards of the street car, which was crossing ie tracks, and every passenger expected to be crushed to death. A panic eneued and a rush was made for the rear door of the car, result- ing in several ladies falling prostrate’ before the engine. The “cow catcher” of the engine struck one of the young ladies, bruising her considerably and ruining her clothes, and but for the ‘timely assistance of Mr. Wm. 0. Milier o ureau of engraving and printing she would have been killed. Others df the leaves sustained injuries more or less serious, and every one received a no slight shock from the accident. This was but one of the manyshocks and accidents that occur at this crossing. We ask in bebalf of ourselves and the public generally that your honorably body take such steps in the matter of their safety as will show them that their city fathers, if not the Pennay!- vania railroa we the welt the public at heart” zeigi No blame isattached to the driver of the street car and we commend the engineer for ex- erting every effort to avert serious accident.
