New York American’s Description of the Reception Ten
dered the Candidate for Governor of State of New
Vork. Overflow Meeting Largest in World.
The following is from the New
York American’s account of Hearst’s
rally in Madison Square Garden:
With a single motion the vast
crowd was on its feet. Thousands
stood upon chairs, and as the tall
form of Mr. Hearst was observed be
tween two stalwart policemen who
were guiding him to his box a
mighty roar of voices swept over the
hall.
The enormous crowds outside who
.gould not get in heard the outburst
from the fifteen thousand inside, and
the remarkable demonstration of
throngs of people cheering the
standard bearer of a statewide cause
was heard for a dozen blocks around
Madison Square Garden.
Avenues of Outstretched Hands.
Mr. Hearst made his way to his
box through two long avenues of out
stretched hands. The din increased
as he entered and came into full view
of all the house. It swelled, entire
ly drowning the music of the band,
as he advanced to the front of the
box and ,bowed his acknowledge
ment, and there was added to the
tumult of cheering the roll and crash
of thirty thousand feet as Mr. Hearst,
leaving his box, made his way slowly
to the platform.
Once there, the storm burst in all
its force, and despite the frantic
playing of the band and the appeals
of Mr. Hearst and Mr. Powell for
silence twenty-one minutes and thir
ty seconds elapsed before the candi
date was able to proceed with his
speech.
And the speech stirred the great
crowd to fresh outbursts at every
peuse which Mr. Hearst made. It
was a crushing reply to Charles E.
Hughes' cry of insincerity and a
fresh declaration of the independence
of the candidate.
A Series of Demonstrations.
His prediction of 150,000 majori
ty all told and all counted started‘
the demonstrations with which hisi
address was received; and then, as|
Mr. Hearst recited his battles against
the corporations—the ice trust and
the beef trust, the coal trust and the
sugar _ trust—the rebate artists
brought to justice, the gas thieves
forced to terms, the thousands rose
and howled their delight, waving
flags and hats and coats and news
papers in the air, ringing bells, blow
ing horns and turning the meeting
into a bedlan.
Turning from the proofs of his sin
cerity, Mr. Hearst thrilled the gath
ering with his announcement of the
indictment of James Gordon Bennett
for maintaining the ‘‘personal’’ col
umn in the New York Herald, and
before the cheering had subsided
the crowd was on their feet once
more in a fresh demonstration over
the ringing declardtion:
‘“No Deal With Any Human Being.”
“I have made no deal with any hu
:man being on earth.”
Mr. Hearst paused a minute with
uplifted hand for the crowd to cease
cheering and resumed.
“I have made no more deal with
Murphy than I have with McCarren.
McCarren is with McClellan for po
iitical reasons of his own, and Mur
phy is against McClellan for political
reasons of his own, but neither one
-of them loves me or has any reason
to love me.”
Cheer after cheer swept over the
throng.
“Good, good!” cried thousands.
“@Give it to them, Bill,” cried the
inevitable personal adviser in the top
gallery.
McClellan and Jerome.
Hisses and groans for McClellan
-and Jerome swept over the auditori
uam. During a moment’s pause Mr.

Hearst was heard to say:
“I have said, and I repeat, that I
do not want the support of any ice
trust mayor or any traction trust dis
trict attorney.”
Again the garden was a seething
cauldron of cheers for the outspoken
candidate and hisses and groans for
foes that he was flaying.
Mr. Hearst appealed with uplifted
hand for silence. A hush fell over
the garden.
“I do not want to be elected unless
I can be elected by the people alone,”
eried Mr. Hearst, and a sharp ringing
cheer greeted the sentiment.
“What I value more than anything
else is the people’s confidence in my
honesty and sincerity. Ido not ask
any man in this audience for a vote,
but I ask him for his good opin
fon.”
“you will get both,” came from
the house.
Mr. Hearst leaned forward earnest
ly, and facing his audience with a
frank gaze thus brought his address
to an end:
“If any one of you, or all of you,
should thkink it best for your own
welfare or for the general welfare,
to keep the republican party in pow
er, I would not complain as long as,
when you cast your votes, at least
you said: ‘I know Hearst is an hon
est man and a sincere man, and,
whether elected or not elected, will
continue to do his best to serve the
people.” ”’
Tremendous Burst of Applause.
A tremcpndous burst of applause
went over the house as his words
died away.
Amid the cheering from all sec
tions came the cries ‘‘Governor
Hearst! Governor Hearst! Three
cheers for the next governor of the
state!”’
For five minutes more the cheer
ing lasted, Mr. Hearst retiring again
to his box, while the demonstration
lasted.
The meeting, which was held un
der the auspices of the Independence
League, was a triumphant success
from start to finish.
The overflow meeting which Mr.
Hearst addressed, after listening to
some of the other speakers in the
garden, was the largest ever held in
the world.
Among the other speakers at botiu
meetings, all of whom were eschu
siastically received, were Frank Mott
of Jamestown, N. Y., former Senator
John Ford and Clarence J. Shearn.
ARMS GOING INTO SEA.
for Forty Years Guns of Obsolete
Pattern Have Accumulated.
Advices from Havana say that car
rying out further the policy under
which the arms surrendered by the
insurgents have been destroyed, or
ders have been given that a great
quantity of arms, the accumulation
of the last forty years, now stored
in the casements of Morro Castle,
be thrown from the battlements of
the castle into the sea.
This work is being done by the
present garrison of Morro Castle, un
der the supervision of American offi
cers. Most of the guns are of obso
lete pattern. About 10,000 stands
of arms are thus to be rendered use
less. :
It is intended to do away with
similar accumulations of arms in all
the other fortresses of the island.
The destruction of weapons is entire
lyv a precautionary measure.
Seed Oats.
We have just received one car of
genuine Texas rust-proof seed oats.
Now is the time to plant.

EMINENT BAD MEN.
Dave Banks Was a Holy Terror
When He Was Mad.
The fact that Dave Banks, who
had the record in the Pecos country,
was killed by the Yaqui Indians a
short time ago, calls for th several
stories of eminent ‘“‘bad men.”
One of the ‘“‘best’” of the ‘bads”
{s Martinez, who killed four men be
fore he was 20, and is now an "Ari
zona outlaw.
One afternon while riding mnear
Laredo, Tex., he met a stranger and
asked for a drink of water. The
stranger replied that he had but lit
tle, but that he was welcome to that.
The bandit drank the water and then
shot the man to death with the re
‘marks:
- “You'll have more water next
time.”’
About ten years ago Martinez was
‘discovered in a ranch house, and
twenty rurals began to break down
the doors, but while they wére do
ing this the outlaw climbed a stair
way to a garret in which a small
window was cut, and, mounting one
of the officer's horses, rode off and
escaped. Seven officers had a bat
tle with Martinez later, but he man
aged to escape with only slight
wounds.
The most miraculous escape that
Martinez is known to have had oc
curred on the plains in the Pan
handle of Texas. The rangers spied
him riding along an opening where
there was no shelter for at least a
mile. They rode up and the fight
began. Martinez would face them
until he had emptied his Winchester,
and then would run his horse until
he had reloaded. Again he would
about face -and shoot until his gun
was empty. A bullet pierced his
right side, but as the blood gushed
from the wound he continued to
fight. He received three other
wounds and finally hjs horse was
shot from under him, but he climbed
down a deep ravine, and got into a
timbered country and escaped.’
At one time Dave Banks had a
“run’’ with one Virgil Earp in Bars
tow, N. M. :
Earp was running things in his
corner of New Mexico at that time.
One night in a poker game Dave
cleaned him. After the game was
over Earp, sore as a barb-wired
maverick, hinted that Dave had done
some crooked dealing, and that it
might not be a bad thing for Dave
to vamoose.
Dave heard of the remarks two
hours later, and made straight for
the back room where he had been
told Earp was playing seven-up with
a bunch of his hangers-on. He
strode over to the seven-up table,
gave it a bang with his fist, and thus
stuck his face within four inches of
Earp’s:
- “Earp, for two bits and a poncho
;chucked, I'd take those guns of
‘yours away from you and chuck them
{down your gizzard! And I wlil give
you this much the best of it at that,
)you mangy cur!” And then he de
liberately pulled both guns from his
own belt, slammed them down on the
card table, and stepped five paces
back from the table, feeling for his
knife.
Virgil Earp simply wasn’t there
in a pinch.
“Oh, stop this foolin,” he said,
weakly, to Dave.
The latter walked back to the ta
ble, picked up his guns, stuck them
back into his belt, deliberately
swept the cards which had been re
placed on the table therefrom, and
walked out, not even taking the pre
caution to walk out backward, thus
showing his supreme contempt for
‘Earp, who up to that time had been
counted the most dangerous man in
the two territories.
GRUESOME STORY FROM INDIA
Superstition Causes Natives to Leave
Dead Unburied.
Advices from Durban say that a
missionary who has traveled through
the greater part of the territory cov
ered by the rebellion reports that
the bodies of the natives slain in the
operations are still unburied, in ac
cordance with the gruesome and of
fensive native superstition against
touching the dead.
The regions visited are described
as desolate. The chief crops have
gone and food is so scarce that some
of the people are gathering edible
leaves. The gardens cannot yield
any supplies for five months. Many
of the men and boys, who but for
the rebellion would be earning a
subsistence for their families, have
been killed or imprisoned.
In most cases consumption results
from a neglected or limproperly
treated cold. Foley’s Honey and
Tar cures the most obstinate coughs
and prevents serious results. It
costs you no more than the unknown
preparations, and you should insist
upon having the genuine in the yel
low package. Sold by Kendrick’s

LEPER DIES IN LONELY HUT
HIS BODY WAS CREMATED IN
'A SHOCKING MANNER.
Death Claims the Diseased Syrian
Who Was Driven from
Pillar to PPost.
George Rashid, the Syrian leper
who was driven from various cities
in the east because of his afliiction,
has just died in a shanty at Pickens,
W. Va. The leper had been located
in a shanty built especially ‘for him
after his removal to that place by
the Baltimore & Ohio railroad com
pany a few months ago, and a nurse
was placed in attendance.
Rashid left Elkins, W. Va., to go
to a leper colony in New York, but
was discovered and ejected from the
train. He then was sent back to
Baltimore, where he was housed in
a box car a number of days and later
was put in a shanty.
The body of Rashid was cremated
in a shocking manner at Pickens.
The shanty in which he had been
staying was set on fire and his body
was consumed with it. It is now de
clared that his death was the result
of foul play. Many people at Pick
ens say the leper was given poison
in his food. Pickens citizens op
posed the presence of the man with
the loathsome disease. If he was
murdered the persons administering
‘the poison well knew that there
would not be a post-mortem exami
nation made of the body.
COTTON IS DETHRONED.
Tobacco Is Now King in Decatur
- County.
The tobacco plant of A. Cohn &
Co. of New York, at Amsterdam,
twelve miles from Bainbridge, is just
closing its bhest season. It is esti
mated that it has purchased over
2,000,000 pounds of tobacco this sea
son. It is now contracting for next
year’'s crop with the planters for 18
and 20 cents per pound for sun dried.
tobacco and 50 and 60 cents for the
shaded tobacco.
~ Cotton is no longer king in Deca
’tur county. At the presen: prices
for tobacco the farmers have turned
their attention to this cron. Recent
ly a citizen of that county after sell
ing his tobacco crop, and meeting
all bills incurred in the raising of
the same, found that the year’s yield I
had netted him over $7,000 clear. |
Cohn & Company have a number‘
of warehoses, where they pick, as
sort and pack the tobacco which they
buy. They employ several hundred
hands to carry on the extensive work
of their plant. .
Georgia Hay. . !
Western hay is selling in Georgia;
for about $22 per ton. Native Geor- !
gia hay can be bought for less money {
by $6 to $7 per ton, and buyers will
not be found paying the difference'
as long as the supply of the home-i
raised product is not exhausted. But
in spite of the fact that thousands of
Georgia farmers who cured no hay a
few years ago now bale enormous
crops the local supply comes no
where near meeting the enormous
and rapidly increasing demand.—Al
