Latest Happenings In the Struggle
‘ For the Presidency.

THE CAMPAIGN IN BOSTON.

Palmer and. Buckner May Get In There
Ahead of the Bryan Men—Factional
Dispute In Delaware—The Fu-
sion Plan In Indiana Fails.

 

BOSTON, Sept. 19. —There is an even
chance that the gold standard Democracy
will get in ahead of the Bryan and Sewall

.men in making speeches in Boston, for it

is more than probable that Palmer and
Buckner, the candidates for the presidency

. and vice presidency, will speak in Boston

next week. The plan is to have them
réhch here in time to speak at 11 noon meet-
ing in Faneuil hall, for General Palmer
has expressed a wish to make an address
in that historic building, and the large
number of marketmen who would be at-
tracted are just the sort of people they
wish to interest. After the rally in Fan-

euil hall, if the plans are carried out as
now talked, the candidates will have a
chance to meet the local gold men at a
dinner at one of the hotels, and then it is
hoped that arrangements can be made for
an evening rally in Music hall; where the
two candidates will speak again.

Big Day at McKinley’s Home.

CANTON, 0., Sept. 19. —’—The big polit-
ical rally which took place under a great
spread of circus canvas here did not begin
until late this afternoon.

In the meantime all Canton was howl-
ing in exultation.

The horse marines pranced madly from
one end of town to the other, now to escort
a governor and again to conduct a mem-
ber of congress. -

’Paper lanterns were strung along all
the trolley wire supports, and decorations
as gay as Chinese sunsets defied the rain.

Up at Major McKinley’ s they trimmed
the trees, and instantly a mob gathered
around the cuttings and fought over the
branches which were out into canes.

Governor Bushnell and Senator Cullom
were first to arrive and were hauled
through the town in triumph.

Senator Thurston dropped 1n about three
hours later. The procession was scheduled
to- -move _at 1 o ’clock, but was later in
starting.

Speeches were made by Senators Cul~
10m and Thurston, Governor Bushnell,
Majcrl McKinley and others.

Beck Declares For Palmer.
PHILADELPHIA, Sept. 19.—United States
District Attorney Beck declares that he
will support Palmer and Buckner. He
said: “I shall vote and support the In-
dianapolis ticket because 'its declaration
of principles is the most truly Democratic.

. It teaches with Jefferson, the founder of

the party, that the proportion between the
value of gold and silver is a mercantile
problem altogether, and with Gallatin, the
most distinguished financier of the Demo-
cratic party, 'that governments cannot

alter by their own regulations the relative '

value of the two metals. It accepts the
good of the Chicago platform and eschews
its evil.” ,

 

Mr. Bryan’s Tour.

Gornseono, N. 0., Sept. 19.—William
J. Bryan arrived here at 11. 30 o’clock last
night, where the private car he was travel-
ing in was side tracked until 9 o ’clock to-
day, atwhich hour he delivered an address
from a platform to a large crowd.

WILSON, N. 0., Sept. 1 .—Mr. Bryan
had the following to say today about the
action of the Buflalo. convention: “I am
very much gratified to learn that the New
York convention indorsed the platform as
well as the ticket.”

Thacher \Von’t Talk.-

ALBANY, Sept. 19.—Mayor John Boyd
Thacher, when seen today, begged to be
excused from saying anything just at pres-
ent about his nomination for governor. He
said that he must acquaint himself fully
with the proceedings of the Buffalo con-
vention before he cared to speak on the
subject. He would give no intimation as
to whether he would accept the nomina-
tion in view of the platform adopted at
Buffalo. .

William F. Sheehan In Buffalo.

BUFFALO, Sept. 19.—Former Lieuten-
ant Governor William F. Sheehan has ar-
rived here. Mr. Sheehan said he was here
to accompany Mrs. Sheehan on a trip to
Ottawa. He refused to discuss politics and
would express no opinion about the condi-
tion of local politics. “My resignation
from the national committee appears in
the papers,” said be, “but I will not dis-
cuss it.”

Factional Dispute In Delaware.

WILMINGTON, Del. , Sept. 19. —James G.
Shaw and Daniel M. Wilson, presidential
electors on the union Republican (Ad-
dicks) ticket, have forwarded a letter to
Manlove Hayes and William C. Spruance,
the Higgins Republican electors, declining
to withdraw from the ticket or to accept
the proposals of the Higgins Republicans
for a division of the ticket“ .

No Fusion In Indiana.

INDIANAPOLIS, Sept. 19.—Tho Demo-
cratic state committee has refused the de-
mand of the Populists for seven national
electors and withdrawal of Sewall. The
Populist committee then named a full
electoral ticket and organized by electing
a chairman and a secretary. This probably

ends the negotiations.

Stevenson to Preside.

WAsHINeTON. Sept. 19. —Vice President
‘Stevenscn has informed Secretary Gardner
of the association of the Bryan clubs that
he vvlll accept the association’ s invitation
to preside at the clubs’ convention at St.

delegates.

ENEW YUEE MYSTERY

Nobody Knows. How Arnold Flesh’s

Wounds Were Inflicted.

 

HE AND HIS soN ARRESTED.

He Is Charged With Having Attempted

Suicide and ms Son With Him;
Tried to Kill Him—The Police
Completely Nonplused.

NEW YORK, Sept. 19. ——Arnold and Wil-
liam Flesh, father and son, prominent in
social and charitable Hebrew circle for
years, were prisoners today, the 61 or in
the Harlem hospital, with three bullet
wounds and charged with attempting sul-

cide, the younger, iilogically as it appears

upon its face, in the Harlem police station
on suspicion of shooting him.

Nobody who knows anything of the
mystery will talk. The known facts are

'that one is shot, that somebody did it, and

that the only somebody besides himself
who was around was his son. And when
that is told all is said, except that the son
denies all knowledge of the matter.
not yet‘ven certain that one bullet didn’t
cause the three wounds. Flesh senior will
live, and it is altogether probable that the
matter will end where it is now—in mys-

tery.

The Fleshes have long been well known
in Hebrew society. Arnold Flesh is the
son- -i-n law of Joseph Loth, the millionaire
silk manufacturer. Until acouple of years
ago he was in business as a manufacturer
of buttons and dress trimmings at 83
Leonard street, but the pearl button in-
dustry was destroyed by the new tarifl‘,
and Flesh failed for $120, 000. It is said in
the trade that he paid up to the last dol-
lar, though it took all he owned. When
he had settled with the last creditor, the
manufacturer who had kept a dozen
travelers on the road, closed his shop door,
hung up a sign “To Let” and started out
himself, a drummer, to begin over again.

His wife had died before the crash, and
his children had moved away. , Mrs. Flesh
had long been an invalid, He took her to
the mud baths at Presburg. in Hungary,
hoping that they would help her, but she
died there. ' There had been an estrange-
ment in the two families for years, and it
was not healed by the severing of the only
tie that held them together. Mr. Flesh
had never been able to agree with the
Loths, with the single exception of his
mother-in-law. His own children sided
with their mother’s folks, and, it is said,
have lived with them ’since their mother’s
death. ' There Were ‘ two sons and two
daughters. The sons, young men, came
occasionally to see their father at the Ho-
tel Peteler, at Lexington avenue and One
Hundred and Twenty- fourth street, where
be occupied a suit of rooms on the third
floor. For the rest, they met at the Temple
Emmanuel and now and then at the soci-
eties to which they belonged, rarely else;

where. _
Several Shots Heard.

The elder neon had retiréd last night

when his son William came to the hotel
and asked if his father was in. It Was
then midnight. The night clerk sent him
to his room and forgot all about the late
visit until 3 a. _m., when the bell was rung
from. a room which adjoined the Flesh
apartments en the third floor.- It happen-
ed that the acoupant of the room, who is
a Salesman, had just come in and was in
the lobby. The clerk told him he had bet-
ter go up and see what his wife wanted at
that hour.-

She met him on the stairs with the mes-

sage that there had been shooting in the-

rOOm next to hersL She had heard four
shots, she thought. The alarm was given
and Policeman Lavender called in from
his post. He knocked at the door of Mr.
Flesh’s room. It was opened by the son.
The father sat up in bed, bleeding from
three pistol shot wounds, one in the side,
one in the right forearm and the other in
the left wrist. He made no explanation
either to the policeman or to the ambu-
lance surgeon who was sent over from the
Harlem hospital, beyond repeating, “Fam-
ily trouble, family trouble!”

A new and shiny revolver lay on the bed
beside him. Flesh, the elder, said that it
was not his and that he never owned one.
The son told the policeman that he had
not heard the shots and knew nothing
about the matter. But the evidence was
that they had both slept on the bed.

The policeman put the father under or-
rest, to begin with, on suspicion of at-
tempting suicide, and sent him to the
hospital a prisoner. There he told Patrol-
man McLaughlln, who was put on guard
over him, that he had not shot himself.

“I had my arms folded,” he said, “and
some one got hold of me and shot me.”

In that attitude it was possible that one
bullet might have made all the three
wounds. As there had been no one else in
the room but the son, he was arrested on
suspicion and looked up in the East One
Hundred and Twenty-sixth Street station.

There he was visited by Joseph and Ber-
nard Loth, his uncles, at sunrise. They
had been roused out of bed by a message
from him. They talked with their nephew
in his cell, but refused to say what he had
told them. The father had not visited
them in three years, they said, and they
knew nothing of his aflairs.

The elder Flesh sent for his lawyer,
Frank Brady of 247 West Eleventh street,
to come toithe hospital. After his first
statement he had nothing to say either.
An examination of his rooms in the hotel
discovered blood spots both in his bedroom
and in the sitting room. The police are
nonplused by the whole affair and are glad
to refer it all to the courts for a solution.

NEW YORK, Sept. 19.—J. Edward Ad-
dicks, the millionaire gas man, and a syn-
dicate of capitalists areabout to buy from
the British Northwostern company the
Crlboo gold mines in Wyoming and Wash-
ington. The property is valued at $5,000,—
000. E. F. Gaynor and other “L” magnate:
are thought to be interested in the ”syndi-
cate.

' Killed on an Elevator.

NEW YORK, Sept. 19.—Frederick Hofi-
man, 38, _was instantly killed today by
being caught in one of the elevators of
Samuel Bauman 8: Bros, 235 Sixth ave-
nue. 'His head was severed from his body.
He lived in Brooklyn.

Squadron, Ready to Sails

 

CONSTANTINOPLE, Sept. 19.—The police
announce that they have made an impor-
tant discovery of bombs and other explo-
sives and incriminating documents in an
Armenian house in Scutari. Two of the
leaders and many of the members of the
Armenian committee have been arrested
in connection with the discovery and have
confessed their guilt. They have also de-
nounced many of their accomplices to

the police. The police have hopes of be-'

ing soon able to unearth the whole plot.

The British Mediterranean squadron is

expected to arrive at the island of Lemuel
today. Active preparations for sea duty

are proceeding among the vessels compos-

ing the Russian Black sea squadron.

An ofificial communication prohibits
meetings of foreigners and says that all
foreigners who do not enjoy the confidence
of the government will be expelled.

 

The Czar’s Veiled Threat.

VIENNA, Sept. 19. —The Neue Freie
Presse says that the inspection of the forts
of the Dardanelles by a Russian general is
the sultan’ s reply to England’s effort to
force him to abdicate, and that it is also
the response of Russia, which has taken
the sultan under its protection, to Eng
land’s menace.

England’s Position.

LONDON, Sept. 19. -—-The Constantinople
dispatch to The Morning Post says: “The
grand vizier, Halil Rifat Pasha, threatens
to resign unless the minister of pelice is
dismissed on account of the recent massa—
cres. The sultan upholds the minister of
police and refuses to accept the resignation
of the grand vizier.’ ‘

An editorial in The Daily News (Liberal),
commenting upon the semlofiicial state-
ment issued by the government with re-
gard to its policy in Turkey, saying that
it cannot act alone in defense of the Ar-
menians, says: “It will be a bitter disap-
pointment for everybody, but the country
must persevere. The true business of the
government is not to force the Darda-
nelles, but to force a concert of the powers
to its own righteous and honorable end. ”

An editorial in The Times, after re-
marking that “for the present the indigo
nation against the Turk is confined to
England and the United States, which ab-
stains from all intervention in European
questions,” calls attention to a remark-
able letter of Lord Hugh Cecil, the mar.
quis Of Salisbury’ s son, as an indication of
the views of Lord Salisbury and the calla
inet. Lord Hugh said in this letter that it
would be dangerously misleading the Ar-
menians for England to make them be-
lieve that she alone could save them. .

The Times also calls attention to "the
notr nous fact that Russia will not toler-
ate any coercion of Turkey” and appeg‘ls.
to ti 1: country to. consider will the risks
it will run in an agitation .fOr action on
the part of England. The Times contin-
ues, saying: “The government may be re-
lied upon to do all- that prudence and the

means at their command will allow. But ,
' it is useless to spur a willing horse,- and if _ ,. ,

may be fatal to both horse and rider i1
spur him at an impossible fence. ” , .

A dispatch from Constantinople to Th
Times emphasizes the fact of the paralyéi
of trade there and the jeopardy of £400,
000,000 of European capital engaged in
enterprises in Turkey.

Dispatches from Berlin, Vienna and St.
Petersburg to The Times reproduce semi-
oflicial articles given out at those capitals
showipg that the powers are not disposed
to assist in any coercion of Turkey.

Gladstone’s Hope of the Czar.
LONDON, Sept. 19.—A, letter from Mr.
Gladstone with reference to the proposed
memorial to the czar has been published.
In it he expresses the hope that the heart
and mind of the czar may be awakened to
the “fearful mischicfs” which the policy
of the late Russian minister for foreign
afiairs, Prince Lobanoff— Rostovsky, “has
done so much to promote.”

The Flying Squadron to sail. ' 1
LONDON, Sept. 19.—A special dispatch
received here from Rome says that .Vice
Admiral Canevaro, with theflyingsquad:
ron, leaves for the Levant at the earliest
moment possible.

The War In the Sudan.
BARJA, Sept. 19.—The advance today

' will be to _Kubudeh, on the third cataract

of the Nile, which point will' be occupied
by the sirdar, Sir Herbert Kitchener, and
the main force of the expedition. Kubudeh
is only about four miles from and within
easy striking distaHCe of Karma, which is
just above the third cataract and which
the dorvishes have made the rallying
point for heavy re—enforcements of caval-
ry. Korma has keen looked to as .the

.. point where the first battle would occur,

but the reconnei'ssances thus far made have
failed to develop any force of the enemy.

It is not expected, however. after the des- -

perate kind of fighting done by the der-
vishes at Ferkeh. that they will retire from
Korma without a fight.
