NASHVILLE, Tenn., June 11.—The train bearing President McKinley and party ar- rived Lere at 8 o'clock this morning. The President's reception through West Virg and Kentucky was one continued ovation. The warm-hearted pecple of the south flecked to the railroad stations all along the line, and although many of them knew that the presidential train would not stop, they were satisfied to cheer and wave a some as the President and his party w by. There were only a few stops scheduled, for the President did not wish to tire himself out, for he wanted to be fresh for h‘s arrival at Nashville. The great enthusiasm shown, however, could rot be resisted, and the President came out on the rear platform whenever the train hakted and greeted the crowds in his usual cordial and gracious manner. He was ofttimes kept so busy shaking hands that he did not have time to speak, and at some places, had he attempted it, the mu- sic of the country bands would have vourt build — OF THE AMERICAN .

It was nip and tuck all during yesterday afterneon which made the loudest noise, the small boy with his calliope voice and cheering, or the country band.

Pickaninniex Fought for Places. The pickaninnies fought for places of vantage on the steps of the President's car. At Huntington five of these little fel- lows crowded so closely upon the President that he had to rest his hand on the head of one, le he used his other to shake the hands of the crowd. As soon as Kentucky was reached the crowds became largely i of lovely girls in attractive sum- mer dresses, and all of them wanted to see nley.

It was nearly 11 o'clock when the train reached Lexington. The President paid his respects to the press correspondents after passing Cov- ingten teday by going in their car and sit- ting a long time in social chat. He made himself at home, and expressed himself in unstinted manner of the pleasures of the trip. “Here comes Gen. corresponde ing in the dent entered. ‘He's after an office. Grosvenor Wants No Office. “I don't want any office out of this crowd,” said Gen. Grosvenor. There was a laugh on Gen. Grosvenor when he discovered that the President was in the crowd. Gen. Grosvenor immediately apologized, but the President told him he would remember what he said the next time he went to the White House hunting office. When the President saw J.-S. Shriver, the New York Mail and Express correspondent under indictment for refus | ing to answer questions of the Senate com- mittee, he laughingly inquired with sur- prise at his being at large, and sald: “I thought you were in jail. How are they getting on at Washington without you all?” the President asked the newspaper men. aid Doran: “They have made Cox min- jadrid.”” replied the President, “we did that before we left home.” ‘The President was presented with a Ha- vana cigar, brought from Cuba by Thos.

When the train stopped at Covington, and the President went to the window and bowed to the crowd, composed of colored people and mountain boys, a three-year-old pickaninny, black as tar, was. hoisted on his father’s shoulders, and grinned at the President. Somebedy jokingly inquired if the President ever kissed children. The President laughed heartily at the Joke. ys the Trip. re, Secretary Sherman alighted whenever there were stops of a few minutes, and strolled up and down the plaiforms in mest contented fashion. He was not recognized by the ef these places. He watch- st the receptions accorded ‘These were funny, too. At Charlottesville, where there was quite a crowd, the reception was awkward. The crowd did not seem to know what to do with itself when the President appeared on the rear platfurn: of his car. A few people went up to shake hands and some others looked like they wanted to call for a speech or cheer, bat they did neither. At Staunton the crowd handled itself bet- ter and accorded the President a hearty reception. It was here that several inguir- jes were made for Mark Hanna. As Sena- tor Hanna was not on the train a news- paper man of portly form was pointed, out as the great republican leader. He sustain- ed the part 1mpesed upon him, but declined to make @ speech. “Well, gol darn it, is that old Mark?” pleasantly asked a farmer when the sub- stitute for the Ohio man was pointed out. “I'll be darn,” he went on, thought he wus a wuss looking man than that.” Mr. Hanna’s impersonator was freely congratulated by the crowd upon his man- arement of the last campaign. Just as the train was palling out he told the “boys” tc send their applications for office in to him and he wculd see they were cared for. Reception nt Clifton Forge.

Two little girls were iifted into the car by the President and handed back to Mrs. McKinley, who played with them. Mrs. McKinley is fond of chil- dren, and at the White House frequently sends for a few to call upon her. The President has never evinced any desire to emulate Andrew Jackson by kissing the babies and children brought to him by fond mcthers. Secretary Wilson watched the condition of the farms on the journey here, and Secretary Alger showed most interest in iron and coal overations. Secretary Wil- son commented upon the tiresome iooking red hills, the lack of vegetation, ete. He said that clover could be profitably planted on all worn-out farm places. He said that the ground was thin and needed more nitrogen. Clover would give it nitrogen, and by degrees restore the richness which had departed. It would afford splendid pasturage, and could be planted at such little cost. As a delightful summer region, however, the Secretary thinks this one of the finest he ever saw. General Grosvenor constantly has the tariff in mind, and this morning secured a copy of yesterday's Star and devoured the tariff news with more avidity than h's breakfast. Representative Babcock is stop- ping at the spring for a few days with his family, and he, too, keeps the tariff i mind. - General Grosvenor thinks that southern cotton will be given full protection. He said the south was getting more out of this than ever before, dnd could get more if she asked for it. Secretary Alger told many interesting stories of the war. He said that in one of the hottest summers of the war in the south, General Sheridan tried to get his officers and men to drink as little water as possible. He told each of them if they would put a pebble under their tongue it would alleviate the thirst. The men tried that, “But it wouldn’t work when a man was thirsty,” said General Heger, who says he drinks little water. He rarely drinks a glass of water at meals and never drinks between meals. He drinks ttle tea or coffee, and rarely anything else. Commissioner of Pensions Evans, one of the jolliest men on the trip, never drinks water between meals. W. W. P. ———_———_ COL. FRANK HUGER DEAD.

Gordon Announces 1,000 Camps in Confedernte Veterans Association. NEW ORLEANS, June 11.—Adjutant General Moorman, by direction of Gen. Jchn B. Gorden, commanding United Con- federate Veterans, has issued an order an- rouncing that 1,000 camps have been regis- tered in the United Confederate Veteran Association, with applications for over one bundred more. He urges those confederate soldiers and sailors. who have not joined the confeder- ate brotherhood, to at once organize and apply by letter or wire to the headquar- ters at New Orleans for proper papers, so as to be represented at the Nashville re- union and assist in devising means to help treir more needy comrades and the widows and orphans of those comrades who have “preceded us into eteraity.” ees FEAR GRASSHOPPER PLAGUE. South Dakota Peopic Send Samples of Bugs to Prof, Lugger. ST. PAUL, Minn., June 11.—Prot, Lugger, state entomologist, has been asked to go to South Dakota to inspect several varieties of grasshoppers that have recently put in an appearance there. He could not get away at this time, and so the South Dakota people sent him samples of the bugs. One of the lot is dangerous, says Pro- fessor Lugger; the other two are not. The one belong to the Rocky Mountain family that devastated this section in 1873 and 1874, destroying all sorts of vegetation. He does not feel, however, that there is any danger of a plague this year. He sent the South Dakota people “hopperdosers,” which latter, he says, will exterminate the pest !f used soon. ee DR. KILPATRICK DISCHARGED. Charged With Murder of Joseph Sprins at Atlanta, Ga. ATLANTA, Ga., June 11.—Dr. J. J. Kil- | patrick, a prominent physician of Midville, arrested Monday, charged with the murder of Joseph Sprinz several weeks ago, was given a preliminary hearing at Midville and discharged. Kilpatrick was Sprinz’s family physician and friend, and the theory of the detectives is that he killed Spring in order to marry Mrs. Sprinz, with whom he was said to be infatuated. The evidence failed to substantiate the charge, and Kil- patrick was given an ovation. Thomas E. Watson, late populist candi- date for Vice President, was Kilpatrick's attorney. —_————.__ The Hessian fly is #0 called because it was supposed to have been brought from Germany during the. revolutionary war in wheat imported for the use of the Hessian mercenaries in the British army.

Saxton, alias Alfred Saxon, a young colored man, who graduated in the- ology frcm Howard University"a few years ago, and who was formerly employed in the Treasury Department, was this morn- ing sentenced by Chief Justice Bingham, in Criminal Court No. 1, to pay a dine of $10 and be imprisoned in the New Jersey state prison for the term of four yeas atthard labor for bigamy. ¢ Saxton, a man of intelligenct and well educated, married Eliza Hunt#at Grean- ville, S.

In marrying the sczond woman, said the court, the de- fendant not only wronged his first wife, but betrayed and deceived the second one. As to the man’s guilt, he said there could be no doubt, in view of the government's testimony and his own admissions under crors-examination. “The sentence of the law Is,” sald the court, in conclusion, “that yeu pay a fine of $10 and be imprisoned in the New Jersey state prison at hard labor fcr the term of four years The court declined to stay the execution of the sentence for thirty days, such mo- tion having been made by the defendant's ccunsel, Mr. J.

BALTIMORE, Md., June 11.—Senator Weilington anncunced tcday that he kad advised the local republican organization this morning at a conference attended by Chairman Stone and other city leaders to drop Col. J. Frank Supplee as the regular candidate for mayor, and to bring out some man whose nomination would prove ac- ceptable to the entire party, Mr. Wellington also said that since the city organization had taken up Col. Suppiee he had been deluged with letters and visits from local republicans complaining of tne step. In foct, the situation is such and the orpositicn to Col. Supplee is so ‘pronounced that the leaders have become alarmed over the conditicn of affairs, and efforts will now be made to induce both Messrs. Mal- ster and Supplee to withdraw, and to leave the field open. As to whether Suppiee will stand out against the wishes of the leaders or not is a question. At present he says he will not withdraw, but the general belief is that he will skortly be induced to retire. The Malster men are jubilant at the sit- uation, and declare that with Supplee out of the way Mr. Malster’s nomination will be inevitable. There is no doubt that the Malster people will stay in the fight, de- spite the efforts of Senator Wellingion and Chairman Stone, and if Supplee is with- drawn it is gererally understood that his fcllowers will be swung over to Malster, in order to force bis nomination and snub the Leer Mr. Wellington is anxious to see Mr. Theodore Marburg ncminated @,,com- promise candidate, but Mr. Marbutg fs too ardent a civil service reformer t suit the workers, and 1s rather a mugwiihp than a republican, and his nomination is very im- probable. og) te The affairs cf the party in confusion just now are in a state of great confusion, and the Malster men alone appear’ ‘to sutisfaction from the outlook. 1 % 4 > et e Matt Adams Found Guilty.’ DENVER, Col.

JAMES GORDY HANGED! Pays Penalty of Wife Murder With His Life. PROTESTED INNOCENCE 0 THE END Large Crowd in Attendance, but There Was No Disorder. GREAT NERVE HE SHOWED GEORGETOWN, Del., June 11.—James M. Gordy was hanged in the Sussex county jail at 10:26 o'clock this morning for the murder of his wife. Gordy displayed very little nervousness, and protested his inno- cence to the last. It had been rumored last night that a party of men were coming to Georgetown this morning to mob the murderer, but Sheriff Johnson took extra precaution, and between 7 and 8 o'clock this morning he swore in forty deputies and thirty jury- men, the latter to witness the execution. At the same time Gecrge Hatfield of Georgetown, who erccted the scaffold, put on the finishing touches and tested it. Gordy retired about 10 o'clock last night, and although he was awake several times during the night, he rested comparatively well. Nothing of incident occurred during the night. Gordy arose from his bed about 5 o'clock this morning, apparently much refreshed from his night's rest. A tempt- ing breakfast of beefsteak, ham and ege: oatmeal and coffee were sent over to th jail by order of the sheriff from the E: Hotel, but Gordy refused tu touch it, ing that he did not want any breakfast. People Began to Arrive Early. Early in the morning people from the country and nearby towns began to ar- rive in carriages and by other conveyance and by 10 o'clock the town was literal crowded with strangers. There was disorder, however, to be more curi no and the crowd appeared is than anything else. The people appeared to be willing that the law should take its course. ‘The most touching scene of the mornin was the visit from Gordy’s brothers, John aud Benton.

He said he had, ana then read a long statement, from manu- seript, which was held before him by on of the ex-sheriffs. In this he reviewed the evidence which had been brought out against him and made specific denial of all of it. He read in a disconnected manner, and at times it was- difficult to gather his meaning. After making his statement Go: to the sp bow ators assembled in the jail and said: “Farewell, gentlemen, to you all.” He then turned to those on the scaf fold and bade each farewell. Again ad- dressing the spectators, he said: **Gentle- men, when you have the love of God you need not fear death.

After the jurymen had certified to Gor- dy’s death, the body was turned over to Undertaker Marvels. The remains were taken to Whitestead, the Gordy home- stead, for burial this afternoon. As far as is known none of Gordy’s rela- tives saw him hanged. Just before the drop fell Gordy sang “There Are Angels Hovering Round” with ds much force as if he were attending a cainp meeting. It is estimated that about 3,000 persons were in the vicinity during the execution. —_—> HANSON WAS A BIGAMIST. nly, and the Suicide nt Mexico, Mo., Dual Life.
