Th« Chicago Conveiitinn Cua.e. the Editor
to Rerouftiiter Retirement.
Locisvili.e, Ky.. Oct. 10.—The Cou-
rier-Journal prints a long- editorial
from Henry Watterson, written at Ge-
nera, in which he said that the action
of the Chicago convention bad caused
him to return to ;x>litica, which he had
left forever two years ago. He con-
cluded: "There is but one hope for the
country, but one for the democratic
partv, and that hope lies imbedded in
the principles unfolded by the India-
napolis platform anil represented by
the candidacy of Palmer and UucUner."

Washington, Oct. ia —Secretary De-

mn estimate on the election yesterday
as follows: Bryan. 28:2 electoral votes;
McKinley, 107: doubtful, 58. This last
is made up of Iowa, Maryland. Minne-
sota, New Jersey, West Virginia and
Wisconsin. He concedes New England,
New York and Pennsylvania to Mc-
Kinley. and claims for Bryan all except
these states and those in the doubtful
list
Chicapo, Oct, 10.—Mr. dawson,owner
of the Evening News and morning
Record, lias inaugurated the most co-
lossal and costly single news enterprise
ever undertaken by a newspaper. He
proposes nothing less than to hold in
the Record an election which will show
in ailviir.ue the results in the 1:2 states
of the central west which are admitted
M most persons to be the debatable
and decisive territory. He has included
Michigan, Indiana, Illinois, Kentucky,
Wisconsin, Iowa, Minnesota, North
and Sou 111 Dakota, Nebraska and
Knnra-:. He lias even listened to the
icpubiicin claims to the extent of add-
ing Missouri. His motto is "As goes
the central west, so goes the union."
His stupendous plan is to send 150,000
envelopes containing circulars of ex-
planation. return envelopes and postal
cards, to as many voters in the states
mentioned. A committee of well known
and trusted men have been invited to
take charge of the count and have con-
sented to serve. Tl)c voters are told
that it is not necessary to sign their
names unless they so prefer.
A Killing Ahont Tensions.
Dlt MoiNr.fi, la,, Oct* 10.—The state
supreme court handed down a decision
in the celebrated soldiers' home pen-
sion case yesterday. The case was
from Marshall county, where the sol-
diers' home is located. It had been
decided by the trustees of the home to
retain, from the pensions of inmates
of the home who had no dependent
relatives, a5l their pension money in
excess of ft> a month. The inmates
took the matter into court, and Judge
Hind man, in the district court,
held that the trustees had no right
to interfere with pensions, and ordered
thewi to refund to the inmates all the
money "taken from their pensions. A
permanent injunction was issued, re-
straining the trustees from enforcing
the rule. The case is completely re-
versed by the higher court. It holds
that the state is providing for the
uciaintenance of the old soldiers who
are in the home, and that it would be
a manifest injustice to require society
to support them twice, once with their
pensions and again wftfa the facilities
•of the home.
ItlSHOr KKANV'ft DISPOSITION*.
It Means the Supremacy of thf Clerical
Party In the Catholic Church In Amer-
ica.
Xf.w Yokk, Oct. 10.—The deposition
of Hishop Keane from the rectorship
of the Catholic university at Washing-
ton, which was announced immediately
after the arrival of Mgr. Martin til i,
the new papal delegate, has been re-
garde (I us the first sign of a movement
that is to shake tlie entire American
Catholic hierarchy. There has been
friction between the ultramontane
and liberal factions ever since Arch-
bishop Ireland took his memorable
stand on the American school ques-
tion. A prominent layman of New
York, whose influence at lioinc lias al-
ways been recognized, says: "It means
nothing less than a restoration of the
supremacy of the ultramontane,
clerical, party in the American church.
As such it must be regarded as the
most important in the history of the
church since Archbishop Ireland ap-
pealed to Rome to sustain him, as
against the clericals, and especially
the archbishop of New York, in the
famous school c^uce*ion.,,
Blood Pure?
'I Is it? Then take Ayer's Par
saparilla and keep it so. Isn't
it? Then take Ayer's Sarsa-
parilla and make it so. One
fact is positively established
aud that is that Ayer's Sarsa-
parilla will purify the blood
more perfectly, more economi-
cally and more speedily than
any other remedy in the mar-
ket- There are fifty years of
cures behind this statement; a
record no other remedy can
show. You waste time and
money when you take anything
to purify the blood except

Populist Nominee for State Auditor in Mis-
souri Kef uses to lie Removed.
St. Louis, Oct. 10.—The populist state
committee, after an all day session, de-
cided last night to refer to the execu-
tive committee all plans relating to
fusion with democrats on the state
ticket The attempt to remove Sher-
idan Webster, nominee for state
auditor, failed. Webster secured the
solid support cf the middle-of-the-
road wing and won over two oth-
ers. On the vote to remove him
there were 11 for and 12 against.
When the populists met yesterday
morning Chairman Ityzellc and Com-
mitteeman Leonard held a conference
with Chairman Sam Cook and then re-
ported that the democrats could offer
no definite proposition on fusion at
this time, but might do so later. There
is a prospect that the democrats and
populists may yet spree, but it is ex-
pected that it will be brought about
without the withdrawal of any demo-
cratic nominees.

Chicago, Oct. !0.— Chicago day, the
anniversary of the great Chicago tire
years ago, was celebrated chiefly as
a political holiday by republicans and
democrats separately, each party hav-
ing its own street parade, as well as
gatherings indoors. Practically every
factory and store were closed, as were
also the board of trade and banks.

jammed with cheering thousands,
struggling to gain some point of van-
tage. After nine o'clock street cars or
vehicles were not allowed in the down
town district, the streets being entirely
given up to sight-seers and marchers.
, Innumerable floats, representing all
i kinds of trades and business organiza-
| lions, were features of the parades.

Indianapolis, Ind., Oct. 10.—The
state board of health has been investi-
gating a remarkable state of affairs
existing in what is known as the Rock
Lane neighborhood in.Johnson county,
where fully 7' per cent, of the popula-
tion have suffered at some time during
the past year with typhoid fever. It,
has been found that all those who had
been ill had been attendants at the
Itock Lane church, where there is a
well from which they have been in the
habit of drinking. A microscopical
examination of the water from this
well shows it full of bacteria, and a
chemical analys s shows it badly pol-
luted.
State Agricultural Itoard.
Columbia, Mo., Oct. 10.—The state
board of agriculture, in session here,
made arrangements for holding insti-
tute meetings in connection with the
animal meetings of the various state

Roads, Poultry and Dairymen's. An
appropriation will be made to the
Poultry association, which meets here
on December 10 to 12, to be used for
premiums. Secretary Rippey stated

murderer of Mrs. John Haumlcy, of
Arkoe, having been retained by tl.<*
father of the boy to defend the case.
It looks now like the boy can neither
be hanged or sent to the |enitentinry
for the awful crime. An act ot tho
last legislature tised the maximum
penalty for a murderer under IS
years of age at a term in the reform*
school until he is 21. Tho minimum*
sentence is two years in the retornv
school. Had the people ot Maryvillo-
and Arkoe been aware of this law tho
murderer would undoubtedly have,
