COMRADES OF WAR
Five Hundred Old Veteransi
Called on MeKinley.
THE REPUBLICAN COMMITTEE
It Will Endeavor to Induct McKloley
to Make a Tour of the Western
States.
Cantos, July 16. Five hundred old
veterans, comrades of the war, called on
Major MeKinley this afternoon. They
came from Clevelaud on a special' train
and they called to congratulate him ar
"comrades," and not as Republicans or
Democrats, as their spokesman said.
Addresses were, made by Commander
Hugh Bunckley and . others- Major
MeKinley responded in part aa follows :
"Fellow Citizens. .' I respond to your
call with special gratification. Nothing
gives me greater pleasure than to meet
at my home my comrades in the civil
war. Ties of fraternity and friendship
grow stronger and dearer aa the years
recede and the old gnard, one by one, is
called home. - i
"There has been no time sine they
laid down their arms when we had
greoter need for patriotic men. than
now, and a reeponse to the crisis of the
hour will now come from all sections of
oar common country. Great applause.
We have Teach ed a point ia our history
when all men who love ' their country
must unite to defeat by their ballot the
forces which now assail our country's
honor. ' The struggle, which is upon as,
involving national good faith and honor,
will enlist their unite! and earnest ser
vice until those who are arrayed -against
the public faith shall be routed. and dis
persed. . Fiaanciat dishonor is the
threatened danger now and good--men
will obliterate lines of party in an
. united efftrt to uphold American honor,,"
THE REPUBLICAN COMMITTKE
Cleyseakd, July 16.--The national
, Republican executive committee today
IN ALL DEPARTMENTS
&
appointed Perry S. Heath, of Cincin
nati, as press and literary agent, and ap
pointed' a committee, consisaing of
Hanna, Ourking of Indiana, Dawes ot
Illinois, Perrin ' of Wisconsin and
Heath, to select the offices for the com
mittee in Chicago and New York. This
committee will be in Chicago Monday.
The committee will visit MeKinley at
Canton to lay before him the plans out
lined and ask his opinion.
Alter the .meeting, Mr. Hanna stated
that no action had yet been taken rela
tive to the appointment of the ninth
member of the executive committee. It
is believed the committee, while at
Canton, will endeavor to induce Mr.
MeKinley to make a trip through the
West, or at least to deliver some
speeches in that section of the country.
Some of the Western committeemen are
strongly in favor of having the cam
paign opened in Omaha or Lincoln, Neb.
HORK BONDS IMMINENT.
Another Sale Mar Be Expected in the
Near Future.
. Washington, July 17. It is useless to
conceal the fact that should the with
drawal of gold continue at the present
rate, another bond iesue will be neces
sary to sustain the credit of the govern
ment. While the administration has
not expected to be able to pull through
until March 4 without another sale of
bonds, it did hope to defer the issue un
til late in the fall, or, if .possible, to the
first of next year. The withdrawals on
Monday were $675,300, of which $375,000
is for. immediate exportation. The bal
ance will probably he hoarded. - . .
The disposition to hoard gold has
been notably apparent for several days.
On Saturday nearly $125,000 was drawn
for this purpose, and on the day before
the withdrawals were nearly $1,800,000,
a large part of which was to be kept in
this country

A rush for claims has been made, and

years ago, and that at that time miners
made good wages. The members of the
company organized are W. K. Carl,

and Maurice Fisher. They have all lo
cated upon claims and expect to order a

DIPLOMAT WAS CHILLED.
The French Minister at Washington
Loved the Highest Place Too Well.
An interesting: story is being- told in
Washing-ton regarding- M. Patenotre,
the French ambassador. After con
press passed the law empowering- the
president to send ambassadors to such
countries as would raise the rank of
their representatives, Sir Julian
Pausicefotc was the first to inform the
president of the intention of b:s coun
try to make him an ambassador. M.
Patenotre conceived the ambition to be
the dean of the ambassadors und com
municated it to his home government,
and his commission- arrived before Sir
Julian's. He went to the state depart
ment in the hope of immediate recog
nition as the first ambassador to this
country. lie was told that Sir Julian
had anticipated, him by informing the
department of the action of his govern
ment. He was angry and w rote to the
president requesting his intervention.
He received instead a- chilly letter from
Mr. Gresham.
EXPENSIVE MIRROR.
Will Brlngr the Moon Within Tliirty
- Eight Miles of the Eye. -
. A special train brought into Paris a
few days ago, wrapped in heavy felt
blankets, bound with soft wood hoops,
a rough block of crystal, which is to
form the mirror of the huge telescope
at the 1900 exhibition.' ' In its present
state the piece of glass weighs C,COO
pounds and has already cost $30,000.
It will cost $30,000 more and take 30
months of x'Olishing by a novel and se
cret mechanical process before it is
finished. Tts diameter is uearly seven
feet, and it is expected to bring the
moon within 33 miles of the eye, but
the chief experts of the Paris observa
tory say that its images will not be so
distinct as theirs are now at 94 miles,
which they believe is the utmost prac
ticable limit.
The Doctor Was Disgusted.
The negro, Sirnpkiris, who cut his
throat with a razor, was in front of the
doctor's premises at the time. In fact,
he was right .on the doctor's sidewalk,
which is if nicely-paved and kept walk,
of which-the owner is rather careful.
At the inquest the doctor described the
horrible sight when the negro slashed
his throat with the razor. "Then,"
said- the doctor, "I shouted to him to get.
oft the sidewalk." :-.
