others occupy higher positions in business
and political circles in New York, were
reared in Georgia, having spent the great
er portion of their boyhood days in Tal
bot county, where the elder Strauss ref
ugeed from the fatherland—Hungary. It
was their pleasure to have as neighbors
and friends Mr. and Mrs. George Stal
lings. now residing in Americus. Mrs.
Stallings taught a private school, and
among her pupils were little Nathan and
Oscar Strauss. Isadorc, the elder brother,
was old enough to assist his father at

sequently did not attend the school. Mrs.
Stallings was stronly attached to the lit
tle Strauss boys, who were very obedient
and affectionate, and It was with regret
that she gave them up when the family
went north to live. Success has been
thqlrß in the world, both honors and
wealth having been conferred upon them.

McKinley Given a M agnifleent Greeting
by Men of Both Parties.
Canton, 0., Nov s.—Gov. McKinley’s
home-coming to-day was a fitting finale
to his unparlaelled campaign tour. During
the last six weeks he has traversed over
10,0(1) miles, through seventeen common
wealths, spoken or bow ed his acknowledg
ment to 400 assemblages and received the
greeting of 2,250,000 men, women a, and chil
dren. At Ma.-sillon, w here he spoke in the
armory this afternoon, and here in Can
ton, where he delivered his closing speech ]
in the tabernacle to-night, his friends and
nelgnbors turned out en masse, the air ;
was tilled with the music of "Aula Lang j

play of his picture in the windows of
business houses and residences, with the
Inscription "The nation's favorite, who
always spends election eve at his old
home.”
When the governor was greeted by the
immense audience he was overcome with |
emotion, and it was only by an effort
that he was able to commence his address. j
He raid It seemed good to be home, for it
had been his custom for a quarter of a '
century to meet hts neighbors on the eve
of election day, not only personally, but
in public assemblages for public discus
sion.
No audience In his own state or out
of It could be more grateful to him than
the one he faced, and he could not stand
In that presence without memories crowd
ing upon him: memories that went buck
along the years to the time when this
district presented his name for the first
time for a public office. The governor
went on to say that the country was on
the eve of the most important political
contest since the war. Its outcome af
fected more Interests, and it .vas fraught
with more concern to the homes and the
hearthstones of the country, than any
election for three decades.
A seat on the right of thediairman bad

mother, but It remained unoccupi-ul, the

RECEIVERS TO BE OUSTED.
The Men Running the Northern Pacific i
Branch Lines to Bv Removed.
Milwaukee, Wis., Nov. s.—Judge Jen
kins, the Northern Pacific receiver, and j
the Farmers Loan and Trust Company of
New York to-day came to the conclusion
that it would be best to discharge the
twenty-two receivers of the twenty-two
branch lines leased and operated by them,
In the Interest of economy. These sub
receivers were getting in the aggregate
SIOO,OOO a year.
Messrs. Payne, Oaks and Rouse, ns the |
employes of Judge Jenkins, will now run ;
the whole thing, and if their salary has
not been fixed yet, they will probably
be allowed SIB,OOO a year, each, the sum
they asked for. owing to the great saving
made by to-day's order.
There was no opposition to the motion, '
which was made by Attorney W. N. '
Cromwell of New York. He said that
the corporation, or Ives faction, consent
ed, although their consent had not been
solicited. H.' F. Turner, representing
the Farmers Loan and Trust Company,
also consented. Mr. Cromwell said that
the outstanding bonds of the twenty-two
branch lines amounted to $60,000,000, and
not a cent of Interest had been paid on
them the past year. Fifteen millions of
these bonds are held by the Northern
Pacific receivers. The gross r icelpts of
the Northern Pacific from these lines
aggregate $2,009,090 a year, or one-third
Of its entire business. This amount, Mr.
Cromwell sc id, flowed "into his honor's
pocket,' and this w-as the recompense
' for the assumed deficiency,
i The receivers and their lawyers will
start to-morrow to oust the branch line
recelvrs, and this they expect to accom
plish in three or four days.

PITTSBURG*3 BLIND POOLS.
Erwin Charged by a Depositor With
Conspiracy to Defraud.
Pittsburg, Pa., Nov. s.—An information
was mada to-day against George M. Irwin,
the absent manager of the discretionary
pool company in the Ferguson block,
charging him with conspiracy to defraud.
The cnarge is preferred by Mrs. Mary
Schott, an investor in the pool to the
extent of SSO. It is expected that a num
ber of similar suits will be entered against
Irwin. Irwin's offices remain closed, and
the clerks are taking a vacation. They all
believe he will return to the city within
ten days, and are of the opinion that he
will resume business. Yesterdsy an inti
mate friend of Irwin received a telegram
from him directing that the offices be
kept closed until his return. It was
learned to-day that Irwin Is now in New
York in consultation with his correspond
ents. All Interest now centers in the
final action of the chamber of commerce.
Law sufficient has been found to not only
close the pool and bucket shops, but to
punish by fine and imprisonment the own
ers of the property occupied by these
Institutions. It is also probable that a re
ceiver will be asked for to wind up the
affairs of the pools.
The United States syndicate at No. 303,
Smithfleld street has given up business,
and is paying off its depositors.
The Artisans Savings and Loan Asso
ciation is in trouble under the lottery
laws before it has begun business. Sev
eral building and loan associations are
said to be quaking in their shoes as a re
sult of the government's action against
the Artisans association, and many ru
mors are afloat concerning them.
At the special meeting of the chamber
of commerce this afternoon Attorney
Goehring was instructed to proceed at
once against the discretionary pools and
bucket shops, following out tho plans
of prosecution suggested in his report to
the chamber's finance committee. It was
also decided to draw up a bill, asking tha
legislature to pass more explicit legisla
tion for the suppression of like institu
tions In the state.

A PACKING HOUSE SET ON FIRE, j
Kerosene and Gasoline Poured Over Dry
Pine and Shavings.
South Omaha, Nov. s.—Another attempt
was made last night to set fire to Ham
mend's Packing House. The fire was set
in the back end of the bex faetery in the
midst of a mass of dty pine and shavings,
and the whole room was ablaze iii less
than five mlnuts. The night watchman
turned in an alarm, and the department
put out the fire with small damage. It
was discovered that kerosene and gaso
line had been poured over the place where
the fire started. This was in a building
in the center of the packing plant, and
the police are investigating the affair.
Later on it was discovered that the fire
alarm system at the packing house had

made, and several warrants are out.
A BOY AND GIRL MURDERED.
The Boy’s Throat Cut and ths Girl De
capitated and Disemboweled.
Toledo, Nov. o.—A Blade special from
Paulding, 0., reports the horrible mur
der of a boy aged 7 and his sister aged
5, tho children of Samuel Wood, a
prosperous farmer living about two
miles from tho town. The children start
ed out yesterday to visit a neighbor, but
not returning at dark searching parties
started out. The little bodies were found
in a brush heap at daylight. The boy’s
throat was cut from ear to ear, and tho
girl was decapitated and disemboweled.
The weapon was an ax. An attempt
had been made to burn the brush heap,
but it was too wet. The theory is that
the little girl was outraged and the double
murder committed to hide the crime. The
surftmndlng country is up in arms and
armed men are searching everywhere
for any suspicious persons.
