The roads were full of tramps, and oo the stroet corners were men grinding hand organs and begging for bread. The 1egislatures all over the country were trying to devise legislative enactments that would sat- isfactorlly apply to the vast hordesof tramps. Stamp duties prevailed all over this land.

T., Oct.-The excitement over the capitol location continued today. After the demonstration against Messrs. Daniels, Perry and Nesbitt last evening had subsided, S. R.

The armed men arrived this morning and were among the first. to secure seats of vant- age in the hall of the lower house. Fully as wmany friends of the Guthrie measure, equally strongly armed, were also present, Their presence caused intense feeling and it would have taken but the slightest outbrealk to have caused serious trouble, Speaker Daniels was too ill, suffering from nervous exhaustion caused by the exciting scenes of yesterday, to pre the house was called to order “Terrill introduced a vesolution ealling utten- tion to the presence of armed men in the chamber, declaring their presenceundesirablo and directing the sergeant-at-arms to eject all spectators, newspaper men excepted. The resolution was voted down—20 to 50. Considering the probability of a repetition of yesterday's riotous dewmonstration 1t was deomed advisable to postpone until tomorrow further action on the capitol question. The speaker has prepared o resolution, which will be introduced tomorrow, provid- ing for the recall of the bill from the senate, When this resolution is prescuted s lively time is expected. e Speaker Reed at New Haven, New Haves, Conn, Oct. 3.—Speakor Reed was here tonight on the occasion of tho opening of the Connecticut campaign under tho auspices of the Young Men’s republican club.

MeKeighan came here in response to an invitation from the of- ficersof tho Hayes county agricultural so- ciety as one of the drawing attractions of the fair. After McKeighan arrived here his sup- porters sent a committee to the managers of the fuir to request that every one should bo admitted free to hear MeKeighan speak. The oficers of the' society declined. They had advertised McKeighan at the expense of the society and felt that the society was en- titled to the benetit of the crowd McKeighan would aray. McKeighan would not o to the grounds, but spoke on _the street. Not- withstanding the unfair advantage he under- took to takoe over the agricultural soclety, he fuiied to draw a crowd from the fair grounds, Aside from the sixty-five men who marched in the procession, the audience did not ex- ceed one hundred persons all told, The presi- dent and several officers of the agricultural society and many members have been warm supporters of McKeighan, but after the fraud practiced today they were outspoken in de- nouncing him.

Bram, Neb, Oc ial to Tae Bex. |—I have £pent some little timo in this pretty town, meeting and talking with those of all parties most likely to be well informed on the political situation in Washington county. Of course their opinions conflict as the opinions of men of different political par- ties do elsowhoere. The only peint upon which all seem to agree is that the prohibi- tion amendment will bodefeated. Tho finan- cial manager of the prohibition’ party, who gave 00 to distribute the Voice in the county, even concedes this. Ho admitted that notwithstanding the earnest and aggres- sive campalgn carried on for months, there hos been 1o substantial gain in open ' adher- ents, but ho dlaims to know that many in tho other parties will quictly vote for it while voting for their own state tickets. The highest estimate I have heard of the prohibition vote is 600, while many beliove it will not exceod 400. Itis mot generally bo- lieved there are in the county to exceed 150 who will voto the prohibition state ticket. The mdst that both' republicans and demo- crats concede to the alliunce people is 500 to 10400 votes, The total vote of the county, itis claimed, will be from 2,400 to 2,500, aud on this vote i well informed democrat claims that his party will carry tho county. While, of course, re- publicaus do not concede this, men of both parties admit that the contest will be very close. The democrats connt a great deal upon the personal popularity of Mr. Boyd mong the German favmers in the south part of tho county, whero they arein_large numbers, be- cause for years, while bo was dealing in hogs, hoalways boaght of them at higher prices than they could get elsewhere, “The alliance voto is not placed higher by cither ropublicans or democrats here than from 300 to 400, and while the*members of this organization will probably vote sold for thoir nominco for the legslatire, it is climed that on the state tickets they will vote largely according to their old party aftiliations. A very popular farmer aud stockman, Rich- ard Blaco, hus been nominated for the lower house on’ the republican ticket and will undoubtedly bq elected. Tho float rep- resentative for this county and Burt will be nominated at Tokamah in a day or two. The senatorial committee met today at Fremont to fix a date for holding the sen- atoral convention, and it is believed here that Gustay Pigant of Admab will be renom- inated for float seuator for this county and Dodge, He s admittedly popular with men of both parties.

Of the magnitudo of domestic trade, itappears that actual payments through clearing louses outside of New York, were, in September, 1614 per cont greater than last year. ‘This is partly due to higher prices, for the general ave of commoditics his risen 1 per cent during the past weck, and has been over 6 per cent above last year for the past Telogram to Weekly Re- month, But the carings of railroad as far as reported for Septembel show a gain over last year of cattle and In spite of and the movements of o particularly per cent cotton the short crop, the movement of oats also exceeds last yoar's, while the decrenso in wheat and corn is partly balancod by tho in crease iuflour, Sales of iron ore at Cleve land thus farthis yearexceed last year's to date by one hese items réspecting the lar accord with aceounts from nearly all cities, which conti able.

New Form Proposed by the Officers of the National League, PriAveremis, Oct. 3.—A new form of con- cract has been prepared by the officers of the National baseball league. The reserve of the cighteenth paragraph is entirely stricken out and @ new pargraph giving a club the option to renew a contract for whatever number of years may bo mutually agreed upon. The wozd “‘reservation” in case of disbandment is also stricken out of the fifteenth paragraph and authority for a cub to assign a contract inserted. The “ten days” clause is materi- ally altered to the advantage of the plu A player under this form cannot be released between seasons without his consent, 1f during the season he be released while abroad with the club he shall be entitled to traveling expenses back to the home cit Another changein favor of the player i right toappeal to the league di- rectors againsta_club's fine and penalties that may be considered unjust. The clagses against dissipation and immorality are strengthened by adding that the player must absolutely vefrain from late hours and from excess and any dissipation in eating, drink- ing or otherwise, and must lkeep bimself in the best physical condition to play ball, ote. **While the reserve rule is no longer re- ferred to in a contract,” said Secretary Rog- ers tonight, “1t does not follow that it will be stricken out of the national agreement. In all probability it or its equivalent will always bo as heretoforo - preserved as a necessity for the perpetuation of the game, but it i3 not likely to figure in legal contracts or law courts hereafter.”” —.———— The Choctaw Commission. Fonr Revo, 1. T, Oc Che Choctaw commission will resume negotiations Satur- ay witih the Cheyennes and Avapahoes for the sale of theirlands. The Indians at pres- ent take little interest in the matter, most of them apparently being greatly excited over the stories told by one of their number, who has been visiting the Sioux Indians, While there he had a talk with an alleged Messiah, who told him a well known romance, which he has been eirculating among the Indians for some time past, of a deluge of mud which is coming next summer to_overwhelm all the whites and bad Indians, on top of which the good Indians will tind new and fertile lands. « _Oaused by the McKinley Bill, NEw Youk, Oct. 3.—Dispatehes from sev- cral points along the border in Canada tell of the great rush to ship into the United Statos all barley, peas, oggs, ote, possible before the Me Kinley bill goes into effect.
