Tuc Wannex Suor Hovse, 2d EDITION. IT WILL RUIN HIM. Gov. McKinley Will Sell Everything to Maintain His Honor. WIND AND STORM ALL OVER THE LAND Municipal Election Being Held at Philadelphia. ALARM AT PORT DEPOSIT. ALL LOST SAVE HONOR. Maj. McKinley Stripped of Everything to Pay a Friend’s Debts. Cutcaao, Feb. 21.—Gov. McKinley, a bank- rupt by over-fidelity to the interests of afriend, hus asked H. H. Koblsnat of this city to act at his trustee and may be compelled to resign the gubernatorial chair of Ohio and begin the ac- tive practice of law. ‘The conference which | led to Mr. Kohisaat's selection as trustee was held in Cleveland Sunday evening. It was found that the governor's liabilities are $95,000, assumably five times as large ns he lias saved during the forty-nine years of his life. Mrs, McKinley has property which will net probably $75,000 if sold unier the hammor. She proposes to turn this over to Trustee Kohl- saat. She ivan invalid and her fortune came as a legney from her futher. Her friends protest against allowing her ‘means to go to cancel the governor's debts, in- | curred by another man, but she insists. ‘Thus | the two become penniless, They lose their | Canton home and all their household goods, | Mrs, McKinley's farms and all go, so that in poverty they begin life again. WHAT MR. KOHLSAAT SAYS, Mr. Koblsaat, in an interview this morning, said the news was correct, and as the trans- actions between Mr. McKinley and himself had been made public he would tell the story of the calamity. He considered it one of the most unfortunate things that had happened withii bis memory. He said: i “Mr. McKinley is the victim of most aggra- vated treachery. He never knew to what ex- tent he was becoming involved because he trusted implicitly in the good judg- ment of hia friend. The exposure of his faleity completely unnerved the victim, and while political reverses were accepted as a part of @ political life he is almost unable to endure the present crash. But honest mau that he always has been, he sadly told me he would begin agai, and no man should lose a cent who lent him money by reavon of his name. “It is probable Myron ‘T. ick, treasurer of the Society of Savin, Jand, will act with me i to say how the finan will be settled. The governor will turn over every penny he has, but this will only bea drop compared with the aggregate liabilities, He said his wife was thoroughly decided to hel him out’ with her own means, which 1 think will amount to about ' $75,000 if wold at The — possessions consist of farm Canton and some other unimproved property. However, all of it will not cover the debts, since when’ I left Mr. McKinley we figured at least $90,000 habii- ities and they are increasing hourly. “The governor will retire from politics, since he cannot hold office and again get up finan- | cially. He said he would begin his law practice again and make it his object in life to pay all that he had been dragged into owing. His affairs area complete wreck, the failure taking the modest home and its contents. The friends of Mrs. McKinley, heroic woman that she declare she’ must not put her fortune | at the merey of creditors. Just what wiil be | done on her part is not yet decided. | she is positive one way; her friends are | equally decided the other. A dispatch received last evening says Mrs. McKinley is with her husband in Cleveland, and the parties were in a conference as to final action.” “Will the governor resign “Well, it is hardly powsible to see what else | he can do, It will_ be qnite necessary, since he | proposes to settle dollar for dollar, and there is no money in being governor of any state. He once had a good practice and his briliant repu- | tation will add to it.” Gov, M'KINLEY WILL NOT RESIGN. ELAND, Onto, Feb, 21.—-Gov. McKinley | cu THE WIND AND COLD. Manhattan “Island Almost Marine Disasters. ‘New York, Feb. 21.—The waters surround- ing Manhattan Island are once more ice-bound. The ferry service is irreguiar and several mis- haps have already occurred. The North and East rivers are filled with ice, and the upper bay resembles an arctic sen this morning. In an unbroken field the crystal mass, capped with hard- ened snow, extends from shore to shore. During the aight the ice came down the North river in giant floes, and was swept down the bay by a strong ebb tide till t reached the wnarrows, There it met a check on its course to the sound. Huge cakes formed a field. The pressure exerted by the mass behind packed it Still firmer, till it reached from side to side, an almost impassible barrier. This morning the situation at this point was slightly relieved, but when an incoming steamer Ice-Bound — succeeded in passing che icy portale to the ice- | locked waters bevond, it was generally unab! to proceed further. Over toward the Staten Island shore the ice has been carried by the wind nnd tide till layer has been forced upon laver and the surface re- sembles a snow-clad prairie, It is a fine ht, with the s.rong light dancing from hummock to miniature valle; ing out scintilating rays and transfo ing the scene to one of arctic xplondor. Only the Ea- quimanx, with their dogs and sleds, aré needed to make the likeness complete. TORM AT SEA, Several voatols are reported as dragging their anchors, and tugs have gone to their assistance. ‘Tho stoatner Santuit, reporte finsh- Inst night with « barge, passed in at the hook thie mor with the wator and ha her bow well down in ing the appearance of being {nll of water.

The Alleneia has on board an Indian war cance from Vara, destined for the world’s air. FERRY BOATS RUN WITH DIFFICULTY. From the battery to Governor's Isl: ice is very solid. and it is withextreme dit that the South ferry boats can force their way ‘through it. y The Barclay street ferry to Hoboken is expe- riencing much trouble with its sidewhecl bouts. The Orange and Secaucus on early trips this morning were both caught in an ice floe which was moving rapidly down the river with the tide. The floats | of the paddle wheels were partially clogged with ice. Suddenly the floc parted, owing to some freak of the slide, and the boats ploughed up the river again. ‘ ‘The ferry boat New Brunswick met with a similar miehap on her 7:30 trip from Jersey City. ‘Thé boat was crowded with several train- loads of pusseugers, who watched with alurm the | boat drifting down stream almost to Governor's Island. She was nearly an hour making the trip. The screw ferry boats were able to make better time, but had to fight their way almost inch by inch. Along the river front lighters and railroad floats are frozen in. Tugs ure vainly trying to extricate them. Although this city is enjoying a breathing spell from the storm today it is still blowing great guns all along the coast. A Schooner Biown Ont to Sea, Bostex, Feb. 21.—Tug Right Arm, Capt. Davis, arrived this morning from Vineyard Haven. Capt. Davis #ports thathe sailed from Vineyard Haven on the 19th with schooner Lizzie Dewey, from New York, Capt. Reynard, coal laden, for Boston, in tow Yesterday morning when off Minot’s, during the heavy westerly gale, the hawser parted and the schooner let go both anchors. The gale in- creased and the schooner commenced to drag tovea. She was leaking badiy and conld not be kept free with tae pumps, which had become disabled, so the captain and crew were taken off by the tng, which then went into Nantucket roads und anchore Early this morning she returned and searched for the abandoned vessel, but could not find and it is supposed she dragged to sea and The cre@ saved nothing but the clothes they stood in.

Puapecrsta, Feb. 21.—The municipal election today 18 proceeding quietly and re- ports from the various wards show that an un- usually light vote is being polled. ‘The weather is clear and plensant, conditions which ordi- PH narily would lead to a heavy vote. ‘There is a lack of general interest, however, though in a | few of the wards there is ‘some bitterness and | activity in the fights for city councilmen. ‘The only general city officers to be chosen are | city solicitor and receiver of taxes. For these | offices the republican candidates are the present | incumbents, Charles F, Warwick and John Tay- | lor, and their re-election by majorities of up- | ward of 20,000 is looked upon as a foregone ; conclusion. Municipal and borough elections are being held throughout the state, but no state officers are to be voted for. eS POPE LEO GRATEFUL.

Ax the bishop’ was very busy and slightly indisposed the entire lot of letters was put away for examination, the delegate's letter among them.

It was nearly 2 o'clock when the case was reached and Mr. Pugh called Secretary Foster | the first witness, ‘The Secretary was not given the Bible that | has been kissed by so many witnesses, but he | was handed a new book by Deputy Clerk Lum Harper. “Do you know Father Columbia?” Secretary Foster was asked. “I donot,” he responded. “Did you ever see him before?” ‘Not that I know of.” Mr. Williamson said he had nothing toask the Secretary. ‘The judge said that the Secretary's name had been mentioned in connection with the several enterprises in which he (the defendant) had figured and asked the Secretary if he knew anything of them. ‘Nothing at all," was the witness’ reply. The court then stated to witness that it had been stated that the administration was back- ing and asked if witness kuew anything of such an arrangement. “Speaking for myself,” answered witness, know nothing of any sach backing.” The witness was excused, aud when he reached the counsel table he stopped the defendant; ‘Is this Father Columbia?” “Yes, sir,” answered the defendant.

He was opposed to the proposition on principle because he was op- pored to taking the money of the people and granting it to cor ns. But even were the principle correct the item in the bill was unjustifiable, invidious and unjust. Let there be a general act which would embrace all roads, and let the Postmaster General say where the money should beexpended. Mr. Wilson then paid a tribute to Postmaster General Wanamaker. ‘The administration of that officer had been to the benefit and in the interest of the people. It had not been surpassed by the administra tion of any of his predecessors. THE VOICE FOR RETRENCHMENT.
