UONIIDEWVICTORY

liCKinley’s Managers Say the Nomi-
nation Is His Beyond Doubt.

oLAIM A ' CLEAR MAJORITY.

it Is Asserted That the Major Has Now
Enough Votes to “’11: the Prize on
the First Ballot—The Demo-
cratic Fight In Michigan.

CLEVELAND, May 11.+Hitherto the Mo-
Kinley managers here have made nodefi-
cite claim as to their strength. Today
she statement was given out at H. M.
Hanna’s office that McKinley has more
shan 500 pledged and instructed delegates.
His managers say he will be nominated
ah the first ballot. "They do not look for
his nomination by acclamation. They be-
lieve there will be no withdrawals—that
Allison, Quay, Morton and Reed will re-
main in the race to the last, but that Mo-
Kiniey Will have a comfortable majority
on the first ballot.

“Believe” is not a strong enough word
to express the sentiment of the McKinley
managers. They are as certain that Mc-
Kinley will be nominated on the first bal-
lot, if he lives. as they are that the sun
will rise on the morning of convention
day. They said as much at Mr. Hanna’s
afiice. '

Abner McKinley of New York, the gov-
srnor’s brother, is in town and called on
Mr. Hanna. Far-Governor Alger of Mich-
igan also called at headquarters and later
'iook a train for Canton to see Major Mc~
Kinley.

“The actions of the conventions of the
east week do not leave a vestige of doubt
in my mind that Mr. McKinley will be
nominated and elected,” said Mr. Alger.
“I look for his nomination on the first
ballot, if not by acclamaoon. If the Ohio
candidate is nominated. the nomination
for vice president naturally will go to an
eastern man. No.1 do not care to predict
whether or not Reed would be likely to ac-
cept the nomination for vice president.”

The lilichigan Democratic Fight.

DETROIT, May 11.—The Evening News
publishes an interview with Don M. Dick-
inson, replying to the strictures of Sena—
tor Vest and other free silver men as to
the alleged corruption of the late Dem-
ocratic state convention by officeholders.

Mr. Dickinson denies that Mr. Steven-
son, Dickinscn’s law partner, or anybody
also issued any circular to officeholders in
connection with the convention. Through
free silver congressmen, he says, free sil-
ver men were put in all the offices of their
districts and in both county and state con.
ventions outnumbered the others two to
one. According to the law, he says, the
places of delegates could not be filled by
proxies, as stated by Mr. Vest. The 16 to
1 men never had a majority of the dele-
gates elected, and the talk of the use of
money is “pure and unadulterated slan-
der and libel.”

If any money was used, says Mr. Dick-
inson, it was in behalf of a free silver syn-
dicate, organized and existing outside of
this state, and furnishing money to carry
on the campaign in this state.

In conclusion, he. says: “I am proud to
say that the party inthis state is properly
represented by its delegation to Chicago
and is in favor, by an overwhelming ma-
jority, of maintaining the pledges of the
congress on this question made whenever
there has been silver legislation since 1873;
that the policy of this government is to
maintain the parity of the metals. .Our
party will not favor repudiation in any
form or take any chances of favoring a.
policy that by any possibility would lead
to repudiation.

“The Chicago convention will not favor
the policy of free coinage at the ratio of
16 to 1. ”

Bulkeley For hIcKinley.

HARTFORD. May 11.——Ex-Governor M.
G. Bulkeley, who ischaia'man of the Con-
necticut delegation to the St. Louis Re<
publican national convention, returned
yesterday from a week’s trip to Ohio,
where he visited Major McKinley and
Mark Hanna. The governor, in an inter-

‘ view :yesterday, came out flatfooted for
McKinley and said that he has always
been for him. This is Governor Bulke—
ley’s first public announcement of that
fact. He said that what he had seen since
he left the state convinced him that Mc-
Kinley would be nominated on the first
ballotand that the Ohio man is all right
on the money question.

The Connecticut delegation, he said,
stood six for McKinley on the day it was
elected at New‘Haven, and be firmly be-
lieved it would vote solidly for McKinley
when the roll of the states is called at St.
Louis. There was never any truth in the
statement that the Connecticut delegation
was a Read delegation.

Governor Bulkeley denied the truth of
the rumor that he went to Ohio in the in-
terest of Senator Hawley or himself for
the vice presidency and said that there
was not the slightest foundation for the
story. The question of the vice presiden-
cy, he said, would be settled after McKin-
ley’s nomination.

V

A Victory For Addicks.

WIIJMINGTON, Del, May 11.—The Re-
publican primaries, held in this state for

. the purpose of electing delegates to the
state convention, which will meet in Do-
ver on Tuesday, May 12, have, from pres-

- ent indications, resulted in a sweeping
victory for J. Edward Addicks. The con-
test was one of the most bitter factional
fl Vhts which has ever taken place in this
state and has been conducted personally
by Addicks and ex- United States Senator
Anthony Higgins, the leaders of the two
factions.

Addicks has carried Kent county and
will probably carry Sussex. In New Cas-
tle county Higgins has probably won by a
small majority, but he has beenodefeat-
ed in his own ward by 81 voees. The Sixth
ward, Higgins’ home, is where the Ad-
dicks people turned their attention in this
city, and so well did they canvass the
ward that the Higgins forces were com.
pletely routed. The result of the prima-
ries will probably give the control of the
state convention to the Addicks wing of
the party. -

/ Nevada For Free Silver.

VIRGINIA CITY, Nev., May -11.‘-—-At the

COLONEL RAIN A SUICIDE. .

The Well Known Railroad Man Threw}

Himself Under a Moving Train.

CLIFTON SPRINGS, N. Y.. May 11. —Colo—
nel F. K. Hain of New York committed
suicide yesterday afternoon . by crawling
under a west bound freight train on the
New York Central road. Colonel Hain
was vice president of the New York and
Manhattan railroad and has been stopping

at the sanitarium for the past six weeks. ’

He was attended here by his wife and his
private secretary, G. N. Post.

The freight'liad uncoupled two cars to
make an opening at Crana street and was
backing up to couple‘ up again, when the
body was discovered by one of the train-
men, who immediately stopped the train.
The body was found to be out in .two
parts, and the right arm was severed from
the trunk. Drs. Lichty and Archer were
called and had the body removed to J. M.
Burgdorf’s undertaking rooms, where an
inquest will be held on Tuesday.

 

Colonel Halu was a native of Stouchs-
berg, Pa., where he was born about 50
years ago.

At the age of 16 he entered the shops of
the Philadelphia and Reading railroad as
an apprentice.

Here in the mastery of the varied and
intricate details of engine building he laid
the foundation for his future success.
He entered the navy at the age of 22 and
served through the war, both in the navy
and army. After the war be occupied
high positions on the D., L. and W., Erie
and Pennslyvania roads and afterward
became superintendent of the Keokuk and
Des Molnes railroad, in whichposltion he
remained after the road became merged
into the Chicago, Rock Island and Pacific
system.

In March, 1880, he was appointed mas-
ter mechanic of the New York Elevated
road, but soon succeeded General E. F.
Winslow as general manager of the entire
elevated railway system of the city, which
position he has filled ever since most ac-
ceptably to tire company.

Colonel Hain was a Mason, 3 member
of De Molay commandery, K. T., of Read-
ing, Pa., and at the recent Masonic fair
in-New York city was voted the “ideal
Mason chair.”

Petit Munan. on the coast of Maine, ten
miles in cm Bar Harbor. and to make of
it a seaside summer and autumn resort.
This peninsula contains 2,565 acres of
land, extends seven miles into the At-
lantic Ocean, and has twenty-two miles
of coast—line unsurpassed for pictures-
que grandeur and beauty. It has been
bought and paid for by the Petit Manon

this amount there have been placed
$420,000. leaving $580,000 in the treas-
ury, of which $200,000 Is now ofi'ered by
the Company at the PAR VALUE OF
$10 PER SHARE. The stock now of-
fered for sale, as well as that already
issued, is secured by deed of trust con-
Ve) in; one million dollars’ worth of the
property, on a basis of value fixed at 3

cluding hotel and club—house. The
Company constructs houses at a slight
advance over cost and will sell lots With
