THE. EVENING STAR, FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 28, 1896-TWELVE PAGES. : CONGRESSIONAL DISTRICTS Interest by All Parties in the Contests in {ndiana. The German Vote Against Bryan— Sound Money Democrats to Make Nominations. Correspondence of The Evening Star. INDIANAPOLIS, September 1896. All parties are beginning. to exnibit a deep interest in the congressional race in this state. Two years ago the republicans made a clean sweep, electing all of tha thirteen members. It was the first time suck a thing had happened in the history of the state since it was entitled to more than two members. The legislature being republican it undertook to make things easier for that party and redistricted the state, adding five to the reasonably certain republican districis, and leaving themselves a good fighting chance in two or three others. They took some of the democrati counties out of the first and second dis- tricts and dumped them into the third, making !t to all intents arfd purposes about solidly democratic. This relieved the press- ure on the first two districts named, giving the republicans a little better chance of carrying them. Normally they are still heavily democratic, but in the first district the play this year is again with the re- publicans, owing to the heavy German vote which is declaredly for sound money. Representative Leighty’s Opinion. In the northeastern part of the state lies the twelfth district. Its boundaries were not changed by the redistricting. Usually it is about 3,000 democratic. In 1886 Capt. James B. White, republican, carried tt by , but two years later it went back to s old love, and continued in the arms of ey with an ever-increas’ng ma- jority until 1894, when the landslide car- ried it over into the republican camp by 2.300. Congressman Leighty is a candidate for re-election. He was in the city today when asked as to the outlook replied: 2. am very hopeful of a re-election. It looks better now than it did this time two years ago,but still I may be dece:ved. I be- go to Allen county with 2,400 , and_it then will rest with county.

The sound money democrats have decided to make congressional nominations in all the distric and the result is likely to be disastrous to the republican candidates in some of them. In the first, second, fourth, twelfth and thirteenth tricts it will re- quire the combined votes of the republi- cans and sound money democrats to elect over the silverites, and even in this dis- trict it may endanger Mr. Overstreet. In this district the popullsts and free silver democrats have combined on a candidate. ‘The democrats are still making claims to everything im sight, and are growing in contidence from some cause. NTS RESCUES. —_—— BULLDOG PRE Four Lives Impertied tn a Fire Be- cause He Had to He Fought. Four lives saved from fire and a battle with a fi bulldog, which took the r cuers’ preserce as an intrusion, formed a combination of exciting events at the house of Frederick Stenger, 2234 North Sd street. Philadelphia, yesterday morning. The res- cuers were Policeman Brey of the eizh- teenth district. Private Watchman Wisham and two citizens, David Arden and R. H. Gibson. Stenger keeps a grocery store and lives with his family, consisting of his wife and two daughters, Emma, sixteen years old, and Josephine, seven years old, in the dwelling above the store. As Policeman Brey was passing Stenger’s place about 1 jock in the morning he saw smoke is- suing from a second-story window at tne rear of the house, and from the nature of the building he saw that there was danger the epers being overcome by the smoke if he walted until the firemen ar- rived. He hammered on the front door vig- orously, but Stenger and his family sicpt through it all. In the meantime the fire ig in strength, and the officer's ed the attention of Wisham, ibson. ed the back fence. and were fiercely assailed by a bulldog, which evi- dently regarded their presence as an intru- sion, and he tore Officer Hrey’s trousers. He also attacked the other men. and was quieted after a good deal of difficulty. The cog’s barking had at length awakened Stenger, and he appeared at the window of his bed room, very much aston’shed to find that his house and store were on fire. Realizing that his life and that of his wife and children were in danger, he ran back to arouse them, and then he returned and yelled: “We can't escape down the stair- way. It's full of flame and smoke.” Don’t jump. We'll get a ladder from the next yard,” yelled Brey in reply. The lad- der was secured, but ft was several feet short of reaching the window where Sten- ger and his family were. But Brey mounted the ladder all the same, and, calling on the other men to assist him, he passed the two girls out first and then handed out Stenger and his wife. Kind neighbors conducted the members of the family, who were scantily dressed, to thelr own homes and ured for tnem. The alarm for the fire de- partment had been sent in a short time be- fore, and just then the engines arrived. The flames were extinguished at a loss of about $1.300. It is supposed the fire started from rats in the store nibbling at matches. —<+e-—___ Attempted Bribery Charged. Considerable of a sensation has been created at Indianapolis by the publication of a signed statement frem Capt. S. M. Shepard, a well-known lawyer and chair- man of the populist county committee, in which he accuses United States Commis- sioner W. A. Van Buren of attempting to bribe him in the interest of the republi- ccn party. In substance Capt. Shephard charges that he was offered by Mr. Van Buren sufficient money to run the populist campaign and a liberal compensation for himself if he would use his influence to keep the populists from fusing with the democrats. Mr. Van Buren denies the charges. wesc C: Retirement of Mafor Ingalls. Capt. Charles H.

The Campaign in * Collapse. No Funds to Carry It on and No Geod Speakers Obtainable—Sound Money Democrats Organize. Correspondence of The Evening Star. GRAND RAPIDS, Mich., Sept. 22, 1896. The silver campaign in Michigan is in imminent danger of a collapse. Things will be kept going until Bryan makes his visit to the state early in October, and then unless prospects brighten materially there is Hable to be a smash. The chie? trouble is a lack of funds, and with it is a lack of harmony and discouraging reports from quarters where the silver cause was thought to be strong. . Early in the season, when the sound money democrats announced themselves | opposed to the Chicago platform and ticket jand declared they would not vote it, the silver managers were inclined to be face- | tious, and alluded to the bolters as “the generals,” and were confident that the rank and file could march on to certain victory without them. But they have since covered, and the fact has been grow'ng painfully more apparent every day, that the deserting “generals” took all the sup- phes with them, and that the rank and file bad been left even before the cam- balgn opened with scarcely a biscuit in sight. With perhaps half a dozen exceptions, the cheerful contributions to democratic campaign funds in the past were found -mong the “generals,” and appeals to them for funds were in vain. The few excep- ticns have borne the big end of the cam- paign expenses thus far, but there is a limit to theif contributing capacity, and the limit will soun be reached with ex- Ferses averaging $800 or $1,000 a day. The candidates on the state ticket cannot be assessed for any substantial amount, for none of them are financially able to stand a draft. Numerous small conuribu- ticns of from 50 cents to $10 have been received from silver enthusiasts, but the | total would hardly keep the wheels greased a single day. In Ionia county, and also in some other parts of the state, efforts have been made to interest the farmers to the extent of contributing vegetables and produce to be sold for the campaign's benefit, but the farmers have not taken hold of the tdea with any degree of eagerness. Not only are the campaign managers short of funds, but they have no credit, efther at the bank jor with supply agencies, and everything furnished in the way of printing, hall hire and other incidentals must be na‘d for on delivery or personally guaranteed by par- ties whom the commercial agencies report responsible. Took the Ablest Speakers. The “generals,” besiles taking away the supplies, deprived the sflver cause of the ablest democratic speakers in the state. Men Ike Rowland Connor of Saginaw, Don M. Dickinson of Detroit, R. A. Montgom- ery of Lansing, Judge Pailthorp of Petros- key, N. L. Keating of Muskegon, Clarence Bennett and Thomas A. Wilson’ of Jack- son, John S. Lawrence, John E. Moore and | W.W. Hyde of this city, who have stumped counties and distr'cts in the cause of dem- ocracy, are not in it this year—or, rather, they are in it, but for the gold standard ard not for the silver democracy. The sil- ver managers have Chairman Fred. A. Baker, Tim Tarsney, Chairman Elliott G. Stevenson and a very few others, besides the state and congressioral candidates, but | volunteer speakers of hgh quality and real | ability are scarce, amd in many quarters | are entirely unobtainable. The populist speakers are most numerous, Lut few of them sre talking for health, and ston talking whea the funds cease to yw their way. :} The lack of funds is producing discord in the rank and file. The poptlist leaders are t getting anything out of the campaign, \ andl aces accordingly aunkernpy. onnomree s'lver organization is conducting its own mpaign entirely indepenvent of the pop- ulists and democrats, and is doing it on a bedrock financial basis. No central or- xenization has yet been effected, and in the different localities every man is his own general, with a consequent lack of discipline and organization. The silver campaign may be kept going until the mid- Gle of October, but unless there shall be a very radical in provement in the situation i. can hardly last that long. Disxcouraging Reports Coming In. ‘The reports discouraging to the silver caus> are coming from all parts of the state and from the country as well as from cities. In the central and northern coun- ties, where the silver sentiment was strong three or four months ago, the farmers have’ been changing horses with startling rapid- ity. Among the factory hands in this city, and presumably in other towns in the state, there has been a similar change, and the change is going on with increased rapidity. No formal canvass has yet been made by counties or districts, but polls taken under i | ! ably show the sound money theories far in the lead. These polls have been taken at county and district fairs, farmers’ picnics, old soi- diers’ reunions, and at other popular as- semblies; on railroad trains, at country toll gates, and even in churches, and almost without exception the Bryan votes are way j behind. ‘Township canvasses have been made in different parts of the state, with the same results. In the southern tier of cougties the silver sentiment 1s still strong, but the republican managers are pouring in Hterature and sending speakers, and the tide is turning in the other direction. Sound Money Democrats. The sound money democrats have or- ganized clubs in Saginaw, Bay City, Jack- son, Burton Harbor, Ionia, Lansing and Kalamazoo, and are pushing organizations into as many other towns and counties as they can find sympathizers. Detroit has not yet organized,but a call nas been issued for a meeting, and a strong clu} is assured. S. L. Smith of Detroit will make a sound money democratic speech in Lansing this week, and will speak in other parts of the state later. Rowland Conner of Saginaw will stump the eighth district, and will visit other parts of the state as well. Other speakers will be out just as soon as the time is ripe for them. Either as sound money demo- crats, or as non-partisan, several college professors have volunteered their services, from the State University, Albion College, the State Agricultural College and Ypsil- anti, and they will be a factor in the cam- paign not often to be counted on by elther side. The Methodist conferences in session at Flint and Lansing show that the Methodist pastors of the state are almost unanimous- ly for sound money and McKinley, and they will exercise their influence for the sound money cause. The Catholic priests are as unanimous as the Methodists, and Very Rey. Father O’Brien has given the reasons for his faith. In other denomina- tions the sound money doctrine is largely in the majority. Ut The independent republican state con- vention met in Salt Lake, Utah, yesterday, with C. E. Allen as permanent chairman. The resolutions declare for Bryan and free silver. Lafayette Holbrook of Provo was rominated for Representative in Congress. The following were named as presidential electors: R. C. Lund, democrat; J. J. Daly, republican; H. W. Lawrence, populist. The Utah democratic state convention yesterday nominated Judge W. H. King of Provo for Representative in Congress, and named as presidential electors Lund, Daly and Lawrence. The naming of the same electors by the democrats and independent republicans was the result of an azrec- ment reached by the conference committee and of the two conventions by telegraph during the recess of the convention. ee - Fasion in India: # The following was given out yesterday at Indianapolis by the populists: “The executive committee of thirteen, af- ter consultation with M. C. Rankin of the national committee, who met Mr. Watson, our candidate, at St. Louis on the 24th, reports to our commiétee that it is the de- sire of Mr. Watson that Indiana get into line at once and divide electors on fair terms. We also have instructions from our national committee to the same effect, and we have decided to put out ten democrats and five populist electors and certify the same as our electoral ticket. The several committees will meet on next Tuesday to ariange full details.” That State in Danger of | ' | food and nourishment. | which loving hands can supply. } most nutritious food, full of lfe-giving elements | rearly every possible circumstance invari- | THE NEIGHBORS COULDN’T BELIEVE IT, BUT IT WAS SO.

Farther Communications on the Sub- Ject by Those Interested Interest in the question of “Sunday leaves” seems to continue. J. E. writes to The Star in reference to the statement that the employes of the bureau of engrav- ing and printing receive ng sick leave, al- though a%part of the treasury. force, as fol- lows: “0 “Some time ago this maiter was brought to the notice of the solicitor of the treas- ury, who decided that said employes were so entitled. Notwithstanding this decision, however, it has never beth granted. An- other injustice is that only, tyventy-six days annual leave are given, the Sundays being deducted at the beginnifig of the fiscal year, although the law expressly provides for thirty days’ leave, and makes no stipu- lation as to how they shall be taken.” Jus Civile returns to tHe ‘subject, refer- ring to Mr. Donath's létter, and saying that 1t wes information,sand not advice, that he wanted. He adds: “Many clerks, having Inindreds of miles to travel, in order to react’ homes © which they can visit but ohce,a¢ypar,.are unable to take a few days at’d ‘time-aid fn the way that he suggests, (af: fnom Monday until Saturday, inclusive, comes jn. just what we complaifi of—Suiiday codhtéd as one day of absence. Four or five counted out of a month's leave make a world’s dif- ference in shortening these annual home visits. Now, as a fellow countryman of Mr. Donath’s, and one also ignorant of the law, may I be permitted to hazard an opinion that the ‘financial turmoil’ will not be affected, as he so greatly fears, either by my question of the construction of the act of Congress or by a competent opinion thereon.” “H’ sends the following communication: “It seems as if Jus ie must be a new comer, not aware of some facts on the governmental service, and more anxious to avoid work than to get work, which just now js a pressing demand over the coun- try. It is an exceedingly inopportune time to agitate a claim for additional excuse from service, especially as the excuse or leave now granted is by favor and not by right. The secretaries are not required 10 grant leave, but they are permitted to grant it. There is a crowa of people who will be very glad to take any place in Washington with no more leave than has become customary. There is also a goodly number of economists who will be very glad to give the clerks all the Sundays and deduct them from the days paid for. At present the clerks are lable to serve on Sunday without extra pay in an emergenc Such a case occurred in the last admin’ tration, when hundreds of clerks were call- ed by messengers from their homes on a Sunday morning. By a curious coincidence an eloquent clergyman, who was supply- ing a prominent pulpit in this city, preach- ed the same morning upon the preservation of the Sabbath, and his remarks indicated very plainly that he did not know what was transpiring at the time in one of the government bureaus. “It occurs almost every year that govern- ment employes in some department have to work over hours, and they are not entitled to pay for it, except in a few cases, like that of the letter carrier, expressly pro- vided for by law. “Gen. W.8. Rosecrans was a strict Sab- batarian, and saved his soldiers from duty that day, as far as practicable, but some of the heaviest fighting his soldiers had to do was on Sunday, notably, the second day of the Chickamauga battle. “Congress manages to sit on Sunday ev- ery year or two, covering it under a fiction of an extension of the legislative day of Saturday. Jus had better be thankful for small favors, unless he would like Monday and the rest of the days off as well as Sun- day.
