Another Man Cashes a Check For n Stranger. It's the old , old storj' : A simple , trusting man with n pocketful of cash , a new but in- giatiating acquaintance , a third person and a check. The newspapers havu exposed the combination over and over again , but the supply of sweet simplicity flows unqucnchl- ble from the fount of human confidence. An old man from the country was worked successfully jesterday for $000 bj- a confidence game ola enough to join the ballot. Ho was mot bya pleasant , smooth spoken young man , who represented himself as a son of Joseph Barker , of the Bank of Commerce and insinuated himself into the old man's confidence. Another young man met them , accidentally of com so , and tendered No. 1 two $100 bills in settle ment of an alleged business transaction. No. 1 looked in bis pocket for small moncj- to inaku change. Ho didn't find it , but ho did ilud a checic for fOOO. Ho was sorrj' . If ho onlj' had time to go to the bank ho could get the check cashed , but ho couldn't think of leaving his friend , the old fentlemaii , whom ho was showing about. The result of the palaver was the old man cashed the check as a favor te his agreeable ncqulntance , and the two swindlers soon found nn oppoitumtj' to leave him. him.When When the victim "tumbled" to the game ho notified the pnlico. In his convcisation "tho son of Mr. Barker" represented himself as living on Uodgo street , between Sixteenth and Seventeenth , and Invited the old gentle man to visit him at his home. The detectives searched that neighborhood , but of course found no trace of thu sharpers. Tlio joung man's kind invitation to the stranger was but an artistic embellishment to his gauio.

[ CojJj/i toM l&SS , by Jama ( loidnn Ucnnctt.l PVKIS , Oct. 6 [ New York Hciald Cable Special to TUB Uci : . ] In reference to the Canadian annexation excitement the Kuro- pcan Hciald publishes the following editorial - torial : Wo made a mistake yesterday when wo hinted that the United States might ai.ncx Canada. Judging from Mr. Blame's speech made on Canadian territory it seems more likely that Canada will annex the United States. Mr. Illainc makes speeches in Can ada , und there is no reason why all Ameri cans should not follow his example. Ottawa has a splendid capltol that cost $5OCO,000 , and covers an area of over four acres. The capitol - itol at Washington only covers thrco and a quarter acres. After assuming the t300,000UOO of the Canadian debt it would only be a flea bite to buy the Ottawa capltol , and then President Cleveland and his cabinet , and the supreme court , und the senate , and the house of representatives , the lobbj ists , and all hands , might move up to Ottawa which would become the capital of this greater United States. In doing this Mr. Cleveland would Do meiely following the ex ample of James VI , of Scotland , who became James I , of England. James I hi ought all hands with him when ho mudo London his capital. Let Mr. Cleveland do as King James did and all will bo well. A Man or Noble * Heart.

Ind. , Oct. 0 This w.isOcu 01 al llairisou's last regular icecptlon to duj for visiting delegations at least until after the ' 'Oth inst , when it Is probable that these delegation icceptions will bo icsumed foi a period. The first delegation of the day came fiom HlulTtoii , ilaitfoid City , Montpolli'i and other towns in Tlnckford and Wells coun ties , Indiana They numbered 1,500 The unlijuu featuio of the delegation fiom Wells couutj was the presence of a uniformed club of llftj-two ladies from UlutT- ton , known us the Carrie Hani son club" When Gcncial Harrison appealed the.v were among thu first to gi cot him. After the usual introductory addresses were made ( Jeucial Hnirisou followed with his response. His speech was confined to matters of direct interest to Indiana people , whom ho addressed as hoosiers. The Chicago delegations were late in tir- riving this evening The first to leach the city was n special tram bringing t,00 visitors from Hvdol'aik , Pullman , Englcwood and Lake View. They wore met at the depot by several local clubs. Thu train was profuscli decoiated with banners and flags. At 8 o'clock another train pulled Into the dnpot amidst the wild cheers of many thou sands nnd the rattling ofaitilleiy. Itbiought delegations comprising bOO members of thu Chicago Union Veteran clubs , MX ) membeis of the Veteran Union league , the Hluiuu club , HO strong , zouavo corps fiom Euglu- wood , a drum corps from Laku \ icw , the becond regiment band , also thu Sons of Veterans band , and live drum corps In addition to thesu uniformed 01 sanitations neai ly a thousand other citizens aei ompanied thu delegations , swellii.g thu grand total of visitois from Chicago and vkmity to fully thrco thousand. The.v brought with them n log foit built on a platform car , with a six | K > und biass cannon piotrudmg from tlio icar. A detail from Hatter.v D of Chicago accompanied tlio cannon und kept it red hot ns the piocessiou was moved toward Touilinson's ' hall , while a continued rattle of local artilleri liom the rear of the marching thousands and tlio dozen bands all treated such a bedlam und confuslou of noises as enl ) a Chicago ciowd can malcc. It was 0 o'clock w hen nil tlio visitors had entered Touilinson's hull , around which watt congregated about ten thousand people. As General Hnriison stepped upon the stage. followed by Ex-Governor Hamilton , Stephen A. Douglas , Captain Hcaluy and others , thuro ensued such a scene as was never before witnessed in this city. Tlio cntiio audience rose as one man and began cheer ing and jelling and waving flags , hats and even taking oft then coats and waving them from the galleries Pinally some enthusiastic veteran came forw aid bearing u silk flag of thu Union Veteran club and began waving it over Geneial Harmon's head. This was the signnl for an intensified out break , which giuw to a remuikablo pitch us one after another moved through the ciowded platform and carried a flag to the front. As these flags and elegant bnnncrs were waved to und fro the 0,000 people ple IK ted as if they had gone cnuy. When quiet had been icstorcd Judgu Martindalu introduced ex-Governor Hamilton , who made nn eloquent address on behalf of the Chicago delegations. Hu was followed by Judgu E. W. Knightly , of Hjdo Park , whose speech evoked great applause. General Harrison responded with much earnestness. Ho said : "Comrades and Friends : I welcome to night for mjself nnd for our | > eoplo this magnificent delegation. We have not bofoie , in the piocession of thesu great delegations. soon its equal iu numbcis , enthusiasm and cordiality. I rejoice in this convincing pi oof that oui people realize the gravitj- and urg ency of the issues involved in this campaign. Our government is not a government bv classes or for classes of our follow citi zens. It Is u government of the people and by the people Its wise legislation distils its equal blessings upon the homes of the nub and poor. Maj1 tlio God who hus to , long blessed us as u nation long defer that evil day when penury shall bo a constant quest in the homes of our working people , and long preserve to us that intelligent , thnftj and cheeiful body of workmen that wus our strength in thu war und is our guaranty of social orders in times of peace. It was out of the homes ot our working people that the grout urmj' came. It was a strong aim , inured to labor on thu farm or in thu shop , that bore up the flag against thu shock of battle and lifted it again in honor over our national capltol. "After so manv historical illustrations of the evil effects of abandoning the polity of protection wo nro again confronted by the suggestion that the principle of protection shall be eliminated from our tariff legisla tion. Have wo not hud enough of such experiments } Does not the history of our tariff legislation tell us that everj' revenue tariff has been followed bj' business and industrial depression , and that a return to the policy of protection has stimu lated our iiulustiies and set our throbbing woikshops again in motion ! And jot again and again the democratic party comes for ward with the pernicious proposition. "I had placed in my hands j'esterdaj' a copy of the London News for beptcmber 13. The editor SU.VK.III substance , that judging the purposes of the democratic partj' by the executive message of last De cember , thu English people wuro Justified in believing that the party meant frco trade , but If they wore to accept the moiu icceut uttcianccsof its leaders , protesting that that was not tficir purpose , then the editor thus states the Ksue presented bj' the demo cratic partj' . I read but a single sentence : 'It is , at any rate , a contest botwucn protec tion and something that is not protection. ' These who defend thu prcsunt democratiu policy declare that our people not onlj' pay a tariff duty up on all imported goods , but that a corresponding amount is added to thu pncu of evoty domestic competing article. Thosu who honostlj * hold such a doctrlno cannot stop short of the absolute dcstmction ot our proteetivo hjutcm. The man who teaches such u doctrine and denies that ho is on the road to free tiado is like a man who takes passage on a train scheduled from hero to Cincinnati without a stop , and when the train Is speed ing on its way at the rate of foitv miles un hour denies that ho is going to Cincinnati. The impulse of such logic drawn tow.ud free trade as surely and swiftlj as that engine pulls a train to its appointed destination It inevi tably hi ings us to the English rules of levy ing dutms on such articles as wo do not produce - duce ut home , such as tea and coffee. "That is purely n luvcnuu tarilT and is practically freu trade , Airalnst this the re publican partj1 proposes that our tariff duties shall bu levied chlctlj on competing articles ; that our American workman shall have thu benefit of discriminating duties uK | > n tliu products of their labor The democratic policy tiunsfors the work from the shops of Chicago to Hlrmlngham. When equal competition is oncu established between our shops and foreign shops , there is not a man hero who does not know that the only condition under which the American sbop can run is that it shall reduce wages to thu level paid in the competing shops abroad. This Is briefly thu whole story. " General Harrison then made his way off the stage , having concluded his fourteenth wuek of public receptions with such a demon stration of interest us was never boforu wit nessed In Indiana.

Tlio businc's" was arrange'il and as Mr. .liunes was leaving the president called him back and asked him what kind of a man Hobortson , of New York , was. James did not , fiom all accounts , gi\o a very glowing description of Mr. Kol > - ertsoii. In a few dajs < Mr. .lames called at the room of Mr. Colliding in comp any with Wayne MneVeagh , who was attortiey-geueial. In the conversation one of the visitors s.iid that ho had been informed that the pipsldont had nominated Uobortson for collector of the port of New York and Merrill to bo consul tit Liverpool. "Do jou undet stand , " nsltcd Mr. Colliding in his deliberate manner , "that the president hus determined upon that ? " The loply was that such was the cns > e. Mr. Colliding said : "This is verj lud , bull do not think matters ha\o gone HO far but they can be reetillod , and 1 am sine when the president is given all the facts that ho will ictiaco his stops. Hu can do * o without injury to himself or his parly. James , jou had bettor go ana see him , and 1 suggest that Mr. MacVeagh go with jou. " The suggestion was acted upon al most immediately. The visitors ex plained their mission and asked the president to do bomething in the matter at once and biivo the party fiom what would cot ttiinly be fatal. Mr. Uurfield alwa.vs put his arm mound a m.in's neek when he wanted to make the man feel sure that his wants would receive favor able consideration. On thin occasion lie used both ainib , one each around the neck of .lame * and MaoVe.igh , and to both ho said : "Hojs , this shall bo ar ranged in accordance with the wishes of Senator Colliding. 1 want jou to go to him. however , and tell him that 1 want to see him hero , with jou two , and we will talk the matter over betvvcen us so that thoie will be no aftorclaps. I want to see Senator Colliding before I do anything else. " An evening was namedj for this con- feionco. Mr. Colliding was given an accurate account of the visit and he consented to go. On the evening named the three met in Mr. Conlding's room. Mr. Conk- ling was putting on IIIH gloves vvhen a messenger came in and handed him a telegram. It was in cipher. Ho sal at his table and took out his cipher book and tend the telegram. "The color c.imo into his face , " said the man who was talking , "and spicail over it at > jou have been a cloud come up in a summer slcy and spread from hori- /on to hori/on. When he had finished making out the message ho arose , took olT his overcoat and said : 'Gentlemen , the little excursion which wo weio about to make to the white house may ' pioceed ifou . like , but not with me , 'i cannot go. ' " ' Tlio others did not go. You know what followed. You know that the nom inations wore made and confirmed. " "What was in the despatch ? " I asked. "It was from Govoi nor Cornell. Cor nell was Conlding'a political pupil. Colliding had made him what ho was , and Cornell had sworn undying fealty to Colliding , and Conlding trusted him" . The despatch urged Conkling not to in terfere with the nomination of Robert son by Gartleld. Conklinir saw at once that there was treachery browing. lie saw that the machinery of the adminis tration had been brought to boar upon Cornell , and that if ho ( Colliding ) undertook to he-id oft Garfleld or change his plan ho would do it in the face of the executive of his own state nnd that ho could not answer that argument consistently. Hence ho re fused to go and Garlicld proceeded. There is no doubt but what Garfield in tended to confront Conkling with Cor nell if lie called Great God , on what a slender thread r.U'rnal things do hang. If that messenger hud been late and ConUling had gone to the white house ho might have persuaded Garliold at the last moment , in spite of Cornell's weakness and lack of moral courage. If ho had there would have been no dis sension in the party. And if thoie had been no dissension in the party there would have boon no Guitoau. " A Girl of Great Pluck. Charles T. Ilurvoy , a New York busi ness man , has his homo in a largo and attractive place at Upper Njaok. A Njuck dispatch s.iys : About a o'clock 0110 morning a window of the house was gently raised and a man crawled si lently through into ono of the rooms. Tlio intruder then made his way up stairs and entered the sleepin room oc cupied by the domestic. In entering the room the man made a slight noise. This awoke the girl , nnd she quickly rose , struck a light and held the mutch directly in front of the face of the bur glar. Tlio man appealed astonished at boldness of the girl , and raised a re volver which hu hold in one hand. The girl , who i& a Swede nnd very muscular , graspud both arms of the man and hold them as in a vise. He struggled to got loose , but could not do so. At one time ho raised the revolver high enough to cover the brave girl'b heart , but she instantly foi cod his arm down again , and the struggle continued. The girl appealed to have no fear , and thought of nothing save of capturing tlio burtrlar without any assistance and without giving an alarm. The couple in their encounter reached the head of the stairs leading to the hall below , and the girl gave the man a dcspoiato push , sending him down the stairs with a rush. She followed him and would have grappled witli him again at the foot of thu stairs , but she lost her footing and slipped p.ntly down. Thu man , having had enough of the girl's muscular handling , took advantage ; of the opportunity to make his escape. IIo raised a window and partly craw led and partly fell out. The girl quickly re covered lierself , anil attempted to got to the window to push the sash down on the retreating form , but she was too Into and ho escaped. She says she would tocognl/o the burglar at any time if she should see him. When asked whether she was not iifinid she said , "No. I would have had him sure if I hud not fallen. I am not afraid of any man. " Knou HIM Gait.
