BISHOP AND WIFE DEAD.
Canton, Ohio, Nov., 4.—Major Me-
Kin ley was about by 7 o'clock this
morning. His brother, Abner, who
arrived last night, cast his vote before
breakfast, and then joined the family
at the cottage.
At 8 o'clock a telephone from the
McKinlcy troop asked the ex-governor
if he would go to the polls with the
troop as an escort, lie said he wished
go as a private citizen, but suggested
that the troop march to the house and
t him review them on the way to the
polls. The invitation was accepted,
and the line of marchers soon appeared.
First came the young men in white
duck uniforms, duck hats and white
umbrellas. After them came the vet-
erans, many of them from the shops
and factories. As Mr. McKinley stepped
down the front walk to the curb, cheers
went up. "Three encers for the next
President!" were added, and then the
marchers moved to the polls.
The Republican nominee started for
the polls at 8:30 o'clock, walking down
Market street, where the voting booth
>f Precinct A. First ward, is located.
He was accompanied by Abner Mc-
Kinley and his nephew, Samuel Saxton.
As Mr. McKinley entered the small
store in which the liooth was located
there was a stir of agitation among
the officials and a mild rustle of ap-
plause. He took his place in the line.
Ahead of him was a swarthy-faced
ivorkingman. whose hands showed he
had just laid down his tools. With
some confusion he greeted the nominee
and offered to yield his place, but the
offer was declined.
"William YcKinley. 723 North Mar-
ket street," called the inspector, just as
the clock marked 9. The major stepped
forward ami received his ballot. He
moved through the inclosure to the
booths in the rear and stepped into the
first one. Adjusting his eyej. lasses, he
scrutinized the ticket carefully, and
for one minute and eighteen seconds he
went over the names. Then, marking
the Republican ticket ut the head, in-
dicating a straight Regublican vote, he
came from the booth and handed the
ballot to the official in charge of the
1h x. As he emerged from the place
there was another cheer fr<>m those
outside. Then, having exercised his
American privilege, he and his brother
walked down to Tuscarawas street to
the home of his mother.
MR. BRYAN AT THE POLLS.

LILLIAN RUSSELL'S LATEST
Causes John K. Cientry to Be Assaulted
In a Kansas City Hotel.
Kansas Citv. Mo., Nov. 4.—Lillian
Russell, who is stopping at the Midland
hotel, yesterday ufternoon received
the following message over the tele-
phone:
"Mr. Mower, of Roston, and .1. R.
Gentry are at the Coates House and
would like to have you come over and
drink champagne with them. If you
are too tired they will drive over to
your hotel."
Miss Russell was furious over the
"insolent" message and handed it to
her brother-in-law, Mr. Fred (*. Ross,
who went over to the Coates House
and inquired for the two men. He met
Mr. John R. Cientry of Sedalia. first,
and showed him the message and in-
quired if he sent it. The question was
repeated, but before any reply was
riven Ross struck Mr. Gentry a light
blow on the side of the head and at-
tempted to strike hint again, but several
men in the hotel office prevented any
more violence. After some words
passed between the men and Mr. Ross
explained what had caused the fight,
he was released and went in search of
Mr. Mower. He found him in the bil-
liard room and choked and shook hiin
gently—sort of a stage shake—and
then left the hotel and returned to the
Midland
The affair caused a decided sensa-
tion. John R. (ientry, who was first
assaulted, is one of the best known
horsemen of the country and is known
all over the land as a square man. and
in all his turf career hus lieen singu-
larly free from such entanglements.
Mr. Edwin II. Mower, the other "vic-
tim" of Mr. Ross' rage, is a wealthy
man from lloston, where he is trustee
for the debenture holders of the Win-
ner company.
Mr. tJentrv vigorously denies all
knowledge of the affair. Mr. Mower
did not deny sending the message and
\ln (!nntpi>'n nQlnu tl'ith it.
Two Men Kill '<1 and roar B dljr Hart la
a Colliery Ksploalow.
Asm.and, I'a., Nov. 4.—Two persona
were instantly killed and four othera
badly injured yesterday afternoon by
an explosion in I'acker No. 2 colliery.
The killed are: John llollcran, aged
.IS years, and .loseph Fann, aged 49
vears. Th mas Walsh. John Meliraw,
Nicholas Mack anil John Korler were
badly injured, the former nrobably
fatally.
The men were engaged in driving a
tunnel and had bored a hole in the
rock, which-they charged with pow-
der. The fust' was attached and
lighted by Walsh, while the othera
ran to a pi ce of safety. After light-
ing the fuse, Walsh started after hia
comrades, but hia clothing caught on a
spike and held him fast, lie cried for
assistance and the men promptly re-
sponded. They had scarcely reached
he spot before the explosion occurred.
nif.l.snoRO, Texas, Nov. 4.—Three
nusked men held up the south-bound
' K aty" passenger No. 1 one mile south
of Alvarado last night about 7 o'clock.
They climbed up over the tender and
covering the engineer and fireman
inude them stop the train. They then
made the porter cut the express car
loose from the passenger cars and made
the engineer pull out on the hill this
side, where he was made to uncouple the
engine and move off a distance, (ioing
to the express car. they ordered the
messenger out. After he got out they
made him go back into the car and told
him to hand out the money quick. In-
stead of doing so. he turned off the
light and shut and fastened the door.
The robbers, who were doubtless nov-
ices. were disconcerted by the action of
the messenger. The engineer, realiz-
ing the situation, pulled the throttle
open and ran into (Jrandview and
wired Ilillsboro. The robbers became
alarme'' and fled when the messenger
put out the lights.
Sheriff Hell organized a posse and
sent it with bloodhounds to the scene
of the hold-up. but up to 11:30 they
have not taken the trail. The passen-
ger is due here at N:05, but did not
reach here till 10 o'clock. The above
facts were gleaned from the engineer,
messenger and passengers. The rob-
bers are described as boys about 17 to
'J(l years of age. They did not get any-
thing. The officers are scouring the
country, and are confident they will
arrest the robl>ers.

LlMFol.li, Neb., Nov. 4.—Mr Bryan
rose early to-day at the hotel in
Omaha, and after breakfast took the
morning train to Lincoln. His voice
wis somewhat husky, but his eye was
bright and his manner cheerful. lie
said that he had had a refreshing
sleep and that lie felt well, lie bought
the morning pajwra at the hotel news
stand and read them leisurely ut the
breakfast table.
Mr. Itryan was met at the railroad
station at Id o'clock by an escort of
Itrvan home guards, consisting largely
of farmers, who received liiiu with ii
shout of welcome us he descended
from the steps of Ills car, the accom-
panying band playing "Home. H'.veet
lloiiic. The guard und a uilsccllan
eous concourse of |s'oplc followed In
proeeaslon as the carriage went through
the streets The sidewalks were lined
with people and there were many
shouts along the way. Interspersed
I|ultc freely with cries for In opponent.
When Mr. Bryan reached Ills resi-
dence to-day. a large numlier of his
nclghisirs and friends were assembled
In front of the house, and as the pro-
cession drew up the llrynn home guard
formed a line reaching from the street
to his diair. The band started the air
which the nominee has uskeil to Is' the
catn|H.lgii air, "Home, iswect Home."
and when at last he reached the house
a shout went tip from over a thousand
throats They called ulsui him for a
and turning to them, his voice
shaking with emotion, he spoke a few
words.
Mr Itryan drove to the city hall st
Ini.iiioclis'k to secure a certificate of
clllrenship on account of his failure to
register la-forehand He was ri'i|iilred
to take an oath al this place, giving
the numl*er of his resldcn and oi dar-
ing that he had lived In the stale for
more than a ,Vrar, In the countv of
Lancaster for more than four months
and in the Filth ward for more than
ten daysi lhat he was a i|ttallHed voter
and that his failure «• register « s

then prtsfeded to ti e engine house In
I'recinet A of the Fifth want, where lie
was given a hallot, retired to his Issith
ami east his hallot tn his order, while
coupling Mr. Gentry's name with it,
but did not want anything said alsmt
it. He left for St. Louis last night.
Mr. (ientry is still in town.
Investigation discloses the fact that
Mr. Mower was introduced to Mr. (ien-
try by a regular army officer yesterday
at the Coates. Mower told Mr. (icntrv
that he knew Miss Kussell very well
und invited Mr. (ientry to meet Miss
Kussell. Accordingly. Mower called
up tile Midland, where Miss Kussell is
stopping. I'pon being told that Mr.
I .entry wanted to see her she said she |
did not know him. and the Coates was i
so informed over the telephone. There- I
upon Mower went to the telephone
and dictated the message to the Mid-
land bell boy captain, who sent it up
to Miss Russell. This was about 4
o'clock. The prima donna was furious
and sent broadcast for Mr. Ross. The
simple fact is that Mr. 'lei.try was
taken advantage of by Mower and did
not realize wiiat an impropriety was
being committed in his name.
