lery. The scene on the floor was- Im
passive. Nearly every seat was occu
pled, while hundreds of representatlve.8
from the lower house were ranged
against the wall. The call showed the
presence of fifty-two members when
the consideration of the repeal bill was
resumed. As the hour of 2 o clock
approached at which time Voorhees on
Saturday expressed the hope that a
vote on the passage of the bill would
be had, many representatives entered
the chamber, and found seats on the
sofas in the rear of the senatorial chairs

HOT AND STRONG OATHS.
Pome of the Obligations Binding on an
Anti-Catholic Society.. "'
Washington, Oct. 30. The memorial
which Weaderk wanted read in the
house today about the Anericari . Pro
tective Association, comes from You
mans, a member of tho last house, from
the Eighth Michigan district, who was
defeated by Wm. S. Linton. It declares
that Linton and. his supporters repre
sented that You man s was a Roman
Catholic, and that the pope controlled
his vote while In congress. The Amer
ican Protective Association, a copy .of
whose oaths accompany the memorial,
binds Its members to do everything
In their power to overthrow the Ro
man Catholic church followers. Ex
hibits of letters and circulars sent out
by officers of the Amerlctn Protective
Association are attached to the memo
rial. They all breath the same hos
tility to the Roman Catholics, and call
upon "all true and loyal protectants"
to vote for Linton. The alleged oaths
which accompany the memorial are
very binding. Among the oaths is
number three," which Is taken on a dag
ger, and binds the candidate to se
crecy, commits him to' the support of
the government, makes It obligatory to
keep the church and state separate,
and renounecs all foreign powers. In
number four, the candidates swear war-(
fare spwfnst ignorance and fanaticism,
and to use their utmost power to strike
the shackles and chains of blind obe
dience to ,f he Roman Catholic church
from the hampered and burdened con
science of a priest ridden and church
oppressed people. This oath goes on
at great length against the Catholics,
and in closing takes a political turn,
the candidate swearing that he will
not countenance the nomination In any
caucus or convention a roman Cath
olic for any office In the gift of tho
people, and will vote only for protest
ants. -Should there be two Catholics
for the1 pome office, he will erase the
names from the ticket. The remainder
of the oaths ar-ehUoratlon of this,
binding the nnmdate to"Ttv everything
In his power-to keep the Catholics out
of public office. Oath number five winds
up with, "I denounce the Pope; his
priests, and emissaries, and the dia
bolical work of the Roman Catholic
church. Amen, Amen, Amen."
EDWIN GOULD'S TURN.
A Crank from Crankvllle Wanted J5.000
and Wanted It Quick.
New York, Oct. 30. Edwin Oould,
second son of the late Jay Gould and
co-heir of the latter'8 millions, had his
first experience with a crank this of
ternoon., At 2 o'clock as Gould was
sitting tn his private office, a shabbily
dressed man walked to his desk and
said: '.'Give me $5,000 and give It to
me quick, or give me a tip on the mar
kets." . Gould asked him to sit down
until . he got the money from the safe.
The crank sat down ind Gould, step'
plhg to a side door? summoned Detec
tive Clark, who quickly took the young
man to police iteadquarterii. Gould had
been prepared for his visitor, who It la
said called at noon today, and being
told . by a clerk that Oould was out,
said ho would return by 2 o'clock,
when he said he wanted a tip on the
markets or $5,000. The crank said his
name was Mongolia Andrews and that
he was 34 years old. His object In
going to Gould was to get back $5000
which he lost in Rosedale, Kansas,
while working on a railroad In Gould's
system.' . The police think him to be
Insane. In a not book in hlB pocket
was a list of wealthy men of New
York City, with figures beside the
name of each, indicating what An-
frews Uiought they were worth. .. .
Kansas City, Oct. 30. Mongolia An
drews, who was arrested In New York
today for demanding money from Ed
win Gold, has been employed as a tel
egraph operator In, this city moBt of
the time during the past twelve years.

was not thought insane.
STILL ANOTHER.
One More Murderous. Crank Doos a
Man to Death.
New York. Oct. SO. At 2:34 this Kf-
ternoon a crazy man said to be named
Thos. Bradley, shot and fatally wound
ed Frederick Matthlee, superintendent
of construction of the new Postal Tel
eeraDh building on Broadway. Bradley
was locked up In the city hall police
station last night, as a suspicious jnr
acter, but was released this morning.
The workmen about the Postal build
ing say that he was loafing around all
day behind piles of brick. In the af
ternoon he came out and said the po
lice and Superintendent Matt-iles were
trying to murder him for stealing $500.
Shortly after this he stepped up to
Matthles and deliberately fired two
phots into his stomach. An infuriated
mob quickly gathered and the polhe-
men had a difficult task to get the mur
derer out. The working men In the
building and other members of the mob
wanted to lynch him. Bradley hlu be
hind a pile of cornice material, with
the revolver in hlB hand. The onllce
fired a number of shots and ordered
Mm to come out. Bradley finally ratne
out on a run and when the police veUed
him he. fought like m wildcat. It re
quired a severe clubbing to se:ute him,
and when the policemen finally got him
he was a sorry looking sight. He was
taken to ; the station and the rrowi
dispersed. - .

World's Fair opened with beautiful
weather, but a pall hung over the great
exposition, and Its myriad flags floated
at half mast. With" the tragic death
of Mayor Harrison, the life and gaiety
mi? oxnortliit.it went out forever.
Instead of a festival of oratory ' and
music which was to have filled In the
afternoon, memorial services were held
in Festival Hall.
Washington, Oct. 30. Prendergnst's
bullets, which took the lire of Mayor
Harrison, might have found lodgment
in the heart of a United States senator,
or even the president of the ( United
States. For fully two wxjks' before
the murder of Chicago's mayor, the
assassin has been directing mosrages
through the United States mails to at
least one United States senator, which
Indicated that his mind was Intensely
wrought up against President Cleve'
land. The burden of all these commu
nications was the silver question. Sen
ator Dubois, of Idaho, and others, are
recipients of communications which
have been received almost dally since
October 9th. The silver senators have
paid n attention to these cards for
the reason that since the silver fight
began they have been receiving many
of a similar nature from all parts of
,the country. These have Included
threatening letters telling them that If
they did not cease their opposition to
the repeal bill they would be shot down
like dogs. -

sociated Press reporter this morning
his former assertions that the reason
for the 'deed was that the mayor had
