Ala., Oct. 5—The publication and usclby the republican campaign managers as a campaign document of the letter attributed to authority of the late Grover Cleveland, which contain a strong endorsement of the republican candidate for president was severely condemned by John YV Kern, candidate for vice president on the democratic ticket before a large audience In the Jefferson thea ter here tonight. Ho declared such use of the document to be an In famous attempt to place a vile stig ma upon the name of a great depart ed statesman, and likened It to the use made In the Garfield campaign of the famous Morey letter forgery. Mr. Kern’arrived in 'Birmingham from Cincinnati at 10:40 and was met at the station by Lieutenant Governor Henry B. Gray, president of the Bry an-Kern Club, and a score of repre sentative democrats from various parts of the state. Prior to his speech this afternoon he had met members of the Alabama Business Men’s Club, which was formed here today. Criminal Fabrication Mr. Kern said: “Some time ago one of the great republican Journals of New York gave to the public a letter pur porting to have been written by that great democratic ex-president. Grover Cleveland, which letter contained a strong endorsement of the republican candidate for president, with alleged reasons why the party which had three times nominated and twice elected Mr. Cleveland president, should be de feated. “This letter, although denounced at once as a forgery, was printed as a campaign document by the republican campaign organisation and given th« widest publicity throughout the coun try. Secretary Straus, of the president’ cabinet. In a special, referred to it “ Proofs that this alleged letter of Mr. Cleveland was a base and criminal fabrication are so overwhelming that It is conceded on nil hands that the distinguished ex-president wrote nc such letter, and District Attorney Jo ronie. of New York, has already taken steps to determine the gulltv author, determined to bring him to Justice Worse Than Morey L«tter. “And yet the republican campaign document carrying this fabricated let ter still circulates. Serrctary Straus has not yet recalled his endorsement as to its authenticity. Republican newspapers which originally printed the fabricated letter under great head lines have either refused to print the exposure of the crime or have so plac ed such exposure In their Journals as to attract no attention. The publica tion and circulation of this fabricated letter Is more Infamous In nil respects than the publication and circulation of the celebrated Morey letter forgery in the Garfield campaign. It Is more Infamous because in that Instance General Garfield was living and gave prompt and effective denial. . Stigma Upon Cleveland. “In this case the alleged author Is dead, and unable to repudiate and deny It. It Is all the more infamous be cause it followed so closely that ten der and splendid tribute to his memory unanimously adopted by the recent na tional convention of his party, and Is an attempted stigma upon his name a«- a democrat and an American. It remains to he seen whether the leaders of the republican party—those in charge of Its campaign—will he man- |v enough to right this great wrong which has been done to the memory of Grover Cleveland, by the circulation of this vile fabrication.” Col. J. If. Lewis, of Chicago, has joined Mr. Kern at this point and will accompany him on his tour of the southern states.

R. H. Capps, general freight agent of the Rea board, was the last wit ness examined on behalf of the rail roads. Ills testimony was along the line of other witnesses for tho defense —to the efTect that It Is Imperative that the railroads advance rates or make material reductions in wages. Ho concurred in previous statements to the efTect that all mild measures of economy had been taken to make “both ends meet,” employes having beeri laid off and Improvements reduced to the lowest possible point, wlthogt meeting the exigencies of the occasion.
