CANTON, Ohio, November 7.—The peo- ple of Canton, many of whom hope to have business of an urgent nature in Wash- ington after the 4th of March, which will require their residence there for at least four years, are preparing to move in an organized way upon the national capital. A meeting will be held early next week for the purpose of forming a regiment of 1,000 men, selected from the various campaign organizations in this city, to serve as escort to Major McKinley on his journey to Wash- ington. The Canton regiment will also oc- cupy the post of honor, according to a local paper, in the parade on inauguration day. The company will be handsomely uni- formed and carefully drilled. ‘The two local companies of the Ohio National Guard will lead the Canton contingent in Washington. In addition to the uniformed regiment of 1,000, there will be several trainloads of citizens from Canton and vicinity at Wash- ington on March 4, and presumably for several days later. o2—__——_ Sousa’s Band Manunger Dead. David Blakely, sixty-five years old, the general manager of the Sousa Band, died suddenly Saturday night in his office, in Carnegie Music Hall, New York.

Six weeks ago Mr. Blakely, while riding a bi- cycle at Bradford, Vt., collided with an ex- press wagon and fractured his collarbone. Recovering from the injury, he returned to New York city over a week since, and re- sumed his business affairs. He did not complain of feeling ill, and appeared to be all right when his typewriter left the office for a few moments a t 4 o'clock in the afternoon. When she returned she found Mr. Blakely unconscious. She sent for a physician, but before the latter an- swered the call Manager Blakely had breathed his last. + e+ —_—__ K. of L. Convention.

The Chances Favor the Election of a Sound Money Man, A special dispatch to the Philadelphia Press from Wilmington, Del., says: Much doubt is expressed as to whether the democratic legislature will elect a sil- ver man for United States Senator. It 1s not even believed that the sflver men will have a majority of the democratic candi- dates. The members of the general as- sembly were named in most instances with- out regard to their opinions on the money question. Most of the Kent men are known to be for sound money, and the same Is true of the New Castle delegation. These men supported the Bryan ticket on the ground of party regularity. So far the only ones spoken of for Sen- ator are Willard Saulsbury of this city and Charles B. Lore, justice of the superior court. Mr. Lore was defeated by George Gray for the Senate in the memorable con- test of 1886. He was the leader of the Saulsbury wing of the party in this county. Wiliard Saulsbury is the present demo- cratic county chairman. He is a pro- nounced gold standard man, and did not appear on the stump during the present canvass. In a contest Judge Lore will probably get nearly the entire support of the Saulsbury element down the state. While in Congress he made a number of speeches in favor of silver, and his views were nearly always opposed by Bayard and Gray. There are so few prominent silver demo- crats that the chances are in favor of a sound money man for Senator. Gold democrats believe that should a gold democrat be selected from Delaware, he would get his seat, whereas the election of a silver man would be almost sare to unite republicans and gold democrats in favor of Col. Du Pont in preference to a silver Senator. There was some talk today among the politicians that Congressman Willis would contest the election of Mr. Handy. In Kent county all the districts showing a re- publican majority were thrown out on the grcund of fraud, and the board of canvass- ers virtually took control of the returns. It is said that Mr. Willis is serlously con- sidering making a contest against Mr. Handy on the ground of the: = ret se irregular. AN AMERICAN ASSAULTED. The Manager of a Cuban Esta Wounded by a Spanish Officer. Passengers who arrived at Key West Sat- urday night from Havana brought the in- telligence of another outrage committed on an American citizen. Although the details are incomplete the facts are positive, since the victim has filed @ protest before Vice Consul Springer and the case has been sent to Washington for instructions. It appears that near the town of Sanjose de Las Lajas, a Spanish force patroling the country surprised three rebels, who tried to sneak into town. The Spaniards gave chase and the rebels fied. In order to discover the hidi the fugitives the Spanish ee ea into squads of fifty men, who were sent in different directions. One of these parties went to the estate owned by a Cuban, where Frederick L. Craycraft, a native of Indiana, and cnly two years in Cuba, was manager. They entered the residence, destroyed the furniture and ransacked the premises. The women present were insulted in the most outrageous manner except assaulting. Crayeraft protested that he was an Amer- ican and showed papers. ‘This, it seems, incensed the officer in com- mand, who drew a sword and commenced slashing at Craycraft. He managed to avert death, but was wounded in the back, receiving a gash that carried away part of the flesh. His forehead was also cut to the bone. The other officer interfering saved his life. Craycraft was forced to surrender about $160 in his possession. Meantime, Craycraft heard great outcries outside and went out later and found that seventeen “pacificos” had been killed. There was not one insurgent among them. All this was reported as a great Spanish victory. —_—_—_~-e-____ THE VOTE IN THE BIG CITIES. Philadelphia’s Plurality and Chi- cago’s Big Vote the Features. From the Philadelphia Press. In the struggle among America’s big cities to see what one could pile up the biggest plurality for McKinley Philadel- phia was an easy winner, her plurality for the republican ticket being nearly twice as large as that of Chicago, which stood second. It is also interesting to note in the table of the pluralities and total votes of the big cities which is given below thai Chicago polled over 22,000 more votes than New York and rolled up a bigger majority against anarchy and repudiation. The table follows: McKinley's Plurality. Total vote.

BE ATTACKED Future of the Insurgents Seems Particularly ——— More Than Likely That They Will Take Advantage of the Weakness of the Capijal’s Defenses. - With the change of administration near at hand, the question.naturally arises as to whether Mr. McKinley will take any steps to put an end to thé bloody struggle which has beer going on for so long in the wretched Island of: Cuba. There was no uncertain ring to the republican platform adopted in St. Louis, and the least the new President can do when he -takes the presi- dential chair will be to bring the matter before Congress. Only a little less interesting 1s the ques- tion what the Cubans are doing to help themselves. For some months they have remained practically inactive, this idleness being largely the result of the rainy sea- son. They have also been seriously ham- pered by the scarcity of horses, for with- out horses they cannot move with a celer- ity sufficient to cireumvent mounted forces such as the Spaniards have. Arrangements have now been made, says an apparently well-informed writer in the New York Herald, to land between four thousand and five thousand horses in the Vuelta Abajo district at an early day, and an equal number will be landed in the vi- cinity of Cape Maisi. Then the patriots will begin their old scheme of marches and countermarches, and their quick attacks on the Spanish ‘positions. The purchase of these horses will practi- cally drain the Cuban treasury, but if they can be safely landed the wornout soldiers will welcome them with far more satisfac- tion than they would welcome guns and ammunition. It fs not lkely that ten thou- sand horses would last the Cubans over a season at most. Unacclimated horses are inevitably stricken with a fever—a sort of equine yellow fever, in fact—which carries them off in great numbers. Within two months, however, it is ex- pected that the Cubans will make a decided move in the direction of Havana province. Maceo has already demonstrated that he can cross the trocha when and where he pleases, and as soon as Gomez gets his horses he will move westward from Puerto Principe. Will they attack Havana? Most cer- tainly, if the Spaniards do not beat them back before they reach that city. Not that they would have any chance of capturing the place. Such a thing without siege guns would be practically impossible. But an hour’s dash through the streets of Cuba's capital and a possible dynamite attack on the palace of the governor general is by no means an impossibility. The Cuban junta says that such a thing will happen within the next three months. It would be a serious thing, indeed, if Ha- vana, the last stronghold of the Spaniards in this hemisphere, should be attacked by the Cubans, Defenses of the ‘City. As for the Spaniards themselves, trey would not hesitate to bombard their own city in their efforts to oust the Cubans. From the Morro Castle, the Cubanas and the Punta there would come a steady rain of shot and shell. It is doubtful, how- ever, if such a bombardment would do much dainage to the Invading forces. Ha- vana Streets are so narrow and the houses are so strongly made that hitting an in- vader would be a work of art. At present the Guardia Civil In Havana, which corresponds somewhat with our mill- tia, numbers about 5,000, These soldiers could pe relied upon to repel a Cuban in- fantry attack with far greater certainty than the forts, because the Cubans would not be foolish enough to attuck the city by daylight. If the insurgents contemplate an attack on Havana during the present winter the very best they can expect will be to make a destructive dash into the city at night by way of the Calzada del Cerro, work their way swiftly up into the Calle de la Reina and out toward Vedado without a pause. “ It is a daring scheme, and if accomplished will only be another proof of the utter impotency of the Spanish forces. “They will never see Havana,” say the Spanish officials. “Such a thing is impos- sible. We have too many soldiers.” It does not seem impossible, however, to capable ncn-combatants who have studied the situation carefully, although such an attack might prove practically fruttloss. ‘There are not a hundred regular Spanish soldiers In Havana, and all the defensive fighting would have to be done by the 5,000 men of the Guardia Civil. The Spanish are supposed to have 150,326 soldiers scattered about at various points on the island. There is no doubt that this number of men has actually landed on the island, with the purpose of fighting for Spain, but it is dcubtful if more than 125,- 000 can be accounted for at the preseat time. There is no doubt, according to the best obtainable authority, that the Spanish offi- cials in Cuba are drawing money on the basis of 145,000 men, but this proves noth- ing. Spain lost nearly 100,000 men in the last war, but this she would never admit. It was known simply because the men never returned to their homes in Spain. Against the probable 115,000 soldiers which Spain now has in Cuba, the insurgents have about 30,000 men. It is easy to be seen that, with a coali- tion of the forces of three or four leaders, a rapfd march on Havara would be ex- tremely possible. But will they do it? No- body knows. < Judge Rengan Critically 11. Ex-Senator John H. Reagan is critically ill at his home in Palestine, Tex. Although in his seventy-ninth year, he insisted upon taking an active part in the campaign, and went on the stump for Bryan and Culber- son. The exposure and fatigue to which he was subjected are thought to have been the cause of his present illness, and it is not believed that he can recover. Senator Reagan has been chairman of the railroad commission of Texas since 1891. He was a@ candidate for re-election last Tuesday, and was successful, having recelved a ma: Jority of 75,000.
