At Wheeling a demonstrative crowd cheered as tha train left tlio depot , workmen ran -out of shops aud people out of houses to catch a last glimpse of the departing ' tr.ain. The first stop was at Mounddville. Mr. W. J. Cowden , chairman of the republican state committee , introduced Blaine amid enthusiastic chehring who said : 'I am glad to moot the citizens of Marshall county. I am glad to bo in West Virginja , I consider U an cncouraginr sign of the times that an earnest contest is going on in what was once a slave staco for the ascendency of republican principles , and republican princi ples this year mean a tariff for the protection of American labor. [ Cheers. ] If West Vir ginia is in favor of that she Is republlcn : if she is opposed to it the is not republican. The de cision rests with the citizens. I know no state in the Union more directly interested in the promotion of manufactures than your state. Your rich bed * of coal and iron , your vast forests , all your natural resources favor a great development of manufacturing Indus- tties. They can bo developed under a pro tective tariff ; they cannot bo without it. " At Cameron , .Littleton , Monnington and Farming ton there were brief stops , and at each point Mr. Bluinp spoka badly of the import ance to West Virginia of a protective tariff. At Fairmont them was quite a largo meeting , and Mr. Blaine left the train and addressed the people from a ptaad. Hero , as at all pre ceding points , the people were very enthusi astic. PAnKKitsiiunGW.'Va , , October C. At'Graf- ton there was a'very-Jargo and remarkably cnthusiubtlti meeting. Tno little mountain town was packed full of people from the sur rounding CDuntry. Blaipe wa ? escorted to the stand , nnd when demonstration , with which ho was received ; had subsided , ho said : "Citizens of West Virginia , as your dis tinguished chairman has intimated , I am not ii stranger to your state. I have known it personally for more than forty years , and I have known this section of it well. ,1 was born on the banks of yonder river , a few , miles belon' the point where It enteis Penntylvanla , and you do neb need to be told that there was always a unity of fooling among the Inhabitants of the Mouougohola vclloy.

V/eat Virginia of forty years1 ago was compa ratively a wilderness ; Woat Virginia to-day is in the prosperous industrial centre in the United States [ applauaoj. West Virginia , as an iodependout commonwealth began her ex istence during the civil war. and tt that data the most liberal estimate of her total.property according to the enumeration of the United States census did not exceed one hundred million dollars. In 18SO the census gave 3011 an aggregate of hundred and ninety millions , and In 1E80 it bhowcd that jou possessed capitalized wealth to the amount f three hundred and fifty mil lion dollars. From the close of the war to the year 1880 , West Virginia had thereforn gamed inealth tve enormous sum of two hundred and forty millions You have fared pretty well , therefore , nnder republican ndminls tration. [ Laughter and cheers ] Probably Foino political opponent does me the honor to liitcu to me , and I will ask him , as u cindi < l man , what agency was it that nerved the a m of industry to smite tr.o inouulaina and create tLh wealth in ; West Virginia ?

Not ono ( cries of ' 'not one , not one , " ) I o further ; 1 do not know a democratic statesman who will acknowledge that tariff for iiroloctlon is conbtltutional , ami therefore , if honest men they are bound to oppo. o it. The Monlsc.n . tariff bill ( "Wo won't luvo It ! " ) the Morrison tariff bill would have struck at the intoients of West Virginia In many vital respects , and it Is an ama/lng fact that thu representatives in con- gresi from West Virginia voted for that bill , There is a good old adage which I bog to re call to > our mlndf. that Ciinl helps thoeo who help themselves' , and if West Viririnla Is not willing to biistain a pro tec the tariff by her vote and her influence she must not expect it to be eustalnod for her by others. If she uanfei the benefit of protective ) tariff rhe must give to protective taiilF the bent lit of iior support.

NEW Yonu , October ( ! , There ia sma1 ! con Cdenco in Vanderbilt stocks and free predic1 tions ot lower figures , oven in tha face of bet tcr prices for the general list. Brio is attract' ing a great deal of attention , owing to the statement that a New York German banker and broker , ono of the Wormser Brothers , is in London to prevail upon the stockholders to give proxies to be voted against the Jewett syndicate at the annual meeting. There is no denying the fact tint Vanderbilt is looking out for the cheap side of the track to the Cen tral and will purchase the Kilo if he can take advantage ot every forced sacrifice , lie is throwing an anchor to windward also ifl the direction of the West Shore , but Erie must have money now or go through a receiver into the hands of its cneuiios nnd it is known that foreign investors have weakened at putting up their cash and prospects are that a very ma terial change in the management will result , and that Vanderbilt'd hand wilt be foremost , while Jay Gould allows his pet properties to become the foot ball of the traders , aud passes Iho old Wabash into the hands ot receiver , It is a fact that the younger Vanderbilt has mortgaged liis up town residence for $500,000.

VCrULAH EXCITEMENT. The radical change of suspicion from Baid to Ifurnlval causes the most intense excitement mont in the community hero and wai at first greeted with profound reluctance as Furnlval was thought to bo a peaceful and inoffensive man. FURNIVAI/a QUILT. Activa search for his body was prosecuted , in t.o hope that Its discovery would remove the suspicion of guilt. Tiie failure of this combined with other criminating circum stances , conclusively establishes hit guilt. TIIK coHO.vnu'd junv has been taking evidence nil day. Every inch of the locality is minutely surveyed to dis cover any trace of the inetli ids employed by the assassin at his work. This , ns yet , is fruitless. The results alone attest tlio tragic tacts. I'inciVAL'ti JiUHDKn. Furnival can scarcely ba said to have had a great reputation as a marksman. It was only known that ho handled n rilie and pistol tel witl fair precision. But the wounds of all his victims indicate that ho ho was a inoro than an ordinary shot , lie expended in every case except in that of Percivol's , only one shot nnd that direct into the brain. At his first fire , however , in killing Porcival ho seams to have selected tha heart. The bul let struck the unfortunalo man in the side but wai arrested by a thick bill book which Mr. Percival carried in his coat pocket. Thus apprised of the murderous in tentions upon him , the unfortunate victim may have been able to oiler eoiho resistance ; a brief struggle may have ensued , soon at best to ba cut short by the assailants second fire. Per cival fell with a pistol shot wound squarely in the center of his forehead. EXPLOPED THEORIES. , , , . _ * . . The theory that Mrs. Percivalhad .been outraged is now abandoned , as the physicians pronounce the miscarriage noted upon , herons post mortem. Every alleged circumstance re- ileetud'upon Baird'o- guilt is flxpluded'Fur - noval is the murderer bejo'nd a doubt. J Mrs. PercivaPs father and brother and nu merous detectives are hero. The following placard has been utruck off by the thousand ! and posted all over the county and. distrib uted throughout the country as much as pojsi- inc CRIMINAL'H HUSK. The evidence shows tliat Furnoval loft with Baird's coat and Mayer's hat , and points in oveiycircumstanc3 to his guilt. His Illyht is completely covered , not the slightest clue to the direction ho took is obtainable. IlKWAIt ! ) OV § 1,000.
