duly or under any circumstances incurring
the enmity of these societies is liable to have
tbo sentence of death passed on him
ana carried out by the assassins , who

This afternoon iho mayor received an
anonymous communication notifying him
that ho will bo the next victim. Mayor

The most intense excitement ever the de

danger of the lower classes being incited to
inaugurate a bloody race war against the
Italians.
The meeting of tbo committee tonight was
secret , but the committee announced that it

the ship Ulysia Is coming up next week with
100 Italian emigrants on board. Tbo mayor
interviewed the custom house authorities ,
and us a icsultthcy will IM down and meet
tbcshlp , and unless the emigrants can satisfy
the olllecrs that they are desirable financially
and morally they w'il not lo allowed to laud ,

wcro many Indira in the audience and n large
jorlloii of it was composed of farmers who
cnmo In for miles to hear the gentleman of

Tired o'MolU-lKIinn. (
JIcCooK , Neb. , Oct. 18. [ Special Tclo-
rram. to TUB BEE. ] The greatest excito-
ncnt prevails in this city and the entire
county tonight. The BlcCook Democrat ,
which lias heretofore been the wannest sup-
> ortor McICeighan. haa la the Second con-
jrcsslonal district of Nebraska , today pulled
lown his nnmo from the list of democratic
candidates , and la today's Issue the congress-
onal space is blank and it editorially do-
loances McICclglmn as being too corrupt for
ttosunport further , as the following editor
ial will show :
There are times in the lives of all men
when problems of the gravest nature must bo
met and fearlessly solved , or , with nn elastic
conscience , evaded. Such a problem tio\v \
confronts us in relation to the contest now
raging in the Second congressional districtof
Nebraska.Vo are confronted with two can
didates who ask for the sutfrago of the people
plo and who each aspire to a scat in our na-
Lional congress. The ono is tbo candid nto
nominated by the farmers' alliance and en
dorsed by the democracy ; the other is tlio re
publican nonilneo. It is of the former 'that
wo are now to speak , for , as a democratic
paper wo have aught to do with
the latter. Wo claim for ourselves the
prerogative to see. to net and to
direct our movements as we may think boot.
\Vehnvovisitcd the homo of Mr , AIcKeighan
and investigated the situntldh for our own
personal gratiflcutronVowentto ascertain
how much was false aud how much -was true
regarding , his olliclal derelictions nnd his
evcry-dfiylifeos a man. Wo have returned
to withdraw our support , ( of whatever mag
nitude it may bo , ) from him as a congres
sional candidate nnd with the determination
to do nothing In the way of advocating his
candidacy for the position to which hoasplres.
\Vhlle w > greatly regret the necessity which
compels us to take this course , wo must say
tbat while at llrst wo regarded the itato-
tncnts reflecting upon his private and oRlclal
actions as campaign material , our own per
sonal investigations have convinced us that
wo are Justified in utterly withdrawing our
future support from Air. McKclghan as a
candidate for congress Irom this district and
to let the chijis fall where they may.
The city was crowded all day with fanners ,
and the above fell like n bomb-shell In the
ranks of the alliance. They could bo seen In
groups talking ever the situation and many
wcro hoard to say , "It must bo
so wo liavo been trapped into
nominating u rascal. " The democrats have
held several secret meetings and ore trying
todovisosomomcansof keeping the alliance
from dropping him , as they feel that this is n
body blow nnd that MclCeighan is doomed
unless something superhuman interferes.

WKEPIXOYATUII , Neb. , Oct , 18. [ Special
Telegram to THE Hnij.J The great debate
between the congressional candidates of the
First district , advertised to take place hero
today , was n grand success , The oncra
house was packed to the walls long before
the hour for the meeting to iKigln , nnd hun
dreds were turned away who wore anxious
to hear these giants of the political arena.
Root , the independent nominee , was given
an opportunity to defend his side of the
question. Kadi speaker in turn was most
heartily applauded oy enthusiastic admirers.
Everybody was well pleased. The republi
cans of Cass county are enthusiastic hi their
support for Council.
It is conceded by all that , Bryan made the
worst break of the campaign when. . In re
buttal to Council's showing of what the re
publican congress had done for laborers ,
.Bryan said : "I am tired to hearing about
laws made for the bctclltof men who work
in shops. " This hroak will cost Byran at
least tlfty votes tlmt were represented to
day. It would have becnsuniclent to cause
defeat in the district had that defeat not be
fore been assured.

what the republican party had done for. the
state and showed why they should be re
tained in power In Nebraska. Mr. Dorsey
talked upon the national issues. Ho ci-
Iihincd the McKiuloy bill so itlalnly that nil
could understand that it did not hurt the

Mr. Scott coullncd himself to tbo tariff

the correctness oTth'o republican principle of

but to stand up for their rights. lie then in
troduced W. 11. Dcch. candidate for Heutcn-
nnt-govcrnor on the independent ticket.
Mr. Dech spoke of tins campaign ns being
ono ot ideas , not of abuse , and said ho did not
propose to abuse anyone , but ho evidently
lost sight of this , for bis speech from begin
ning to end was but a tirade of abuse of the
old parties , huntlngup every error made by
either , but never speaking of the
good done. Ho found fault with both
turtles and said that whichever was in power
it would bo no bolter and that the brokers of
"Wall street would always rob the farmers if
the old parties maintained that hold upon the
reins of government. Ho accused the old
parties of being to blame for the creation of
trusts , saying they had passed the most
damnutilo laws that were over made ; that
"Wall street broken wcro In power , and unless
a change was made this fall , bankruptcy and
ruin would spread throughout the land. Ho
continued in this manner- for about an hour ,
appealing to the old soldiers to help save the
nation again In its present great danger.
This gentleman found a few kindred spirits
in the audience , but his speech elicited but
feeble applause.

vlewcd hero today were unanimous in the
statement that they awaited the decision of
the case now being tried in the Arkansas cir
cuit court to decide whether they would re
open or not. In an interview with Governor
Boies today ho stated that there is a wide
difference in the minds of the lawyers of
the state as to the law , that could
only ho settled by a decision of the supreme
court. In answer to the question whether
the naclctiga houses would reopen upon the
decision of the Kansas court , ho said that ho
thought they would not , and tnat If they did
they would not bo exempt from prosecution.
He thought that should the Arkansas court
follow the lead of the Kansas judge and ren
der alike decision , the package ] houses might
bo reopened , but that If the police performed
their duty no errcat amount of business would
bo done. In answer to the question whether
ho would call an extra session of the legisla
ture if the saloons were reopened , ho hud as yet
not thought of the mutter in that light , and
would not give nn opinion ; that a careful re
view of the political astwct would first be
necessary. The formation of the house and

TUB IUi : : , | At the meeting of the Northern
consiTvntlvo union at N'owcastlo today Mr.
Balfour renewed his attack on Mr. John
Morley , who , ho said , had assiulcd him with
the charge of absenteeism from his post , Ig
noring the fact that whllo ho ( .Mr. Morley )
was chief secretary for Ireland for six
months ho was m Ireland precisely five days ,
Heferrlngto the Tippcrary trouble , Mr. Bnl-
four denied that any principle of hi\v \
or common sense had been violated
In the appointment of Mr. Shannon
ns ono of the Judges to try
Messrs. Dillon and O'Hrlcii and the other de
fendants. When the Holfast rlot.s occurred
the resident magistrates whom Mr. Morley
had appointed were repeatedly rolled up to
adjudicate cases with which they had Just
previously dealt In their executive capacity ,
in regard to the collision between thu police
ami the mob nt Tlppcrnry , Mr. Halfoursnld
there was the usual conlHctlng evidence. The
evidence showed that Colonel Ciiddell , who
had charge of the pollco nt Tippcniry , know
ing the dangerous character of the mob ,
was perfectly Justified In moving It on.
Within the court gates no more force was
used by the pollco to prevent the ingress of
the crowd than was absolutely necessary.
The conduct of the crowd was such that it
was Impoasiblo for the pollco to refrain Irom
using some force. It was quite plain that
Mr. Morley wan too much carried nwny by
political passion to bo an Impartial witness.
Mr. Morlcy had misquoted Colonel Cnddell
nnd had grossly misrepresented some of Ins
arguments , Comparing the positions of the
two men , he was cortnlu tha , all Kngliihiiu'n
would feel that the part acted in the trial by
Colonel Cnudcll was ono that they would
rather have acted than the part played by
Morlcy. Lot the people compare Mr. Mor-
ley's statements with the facts of the case
and then say whether they wore willing to
trust the Interests of the loyal minority In
Ireland to the party with which Mr. Morlcy
was in alliance.

CIIICAQO , Oct. 13. [ Special Telegram to
Tun Ben.Tho ) sensational row in the
Englcwood Presbyterian church seems to becoming
coming out In the pastor's favor. At the
final minting of the conference committees of
the pastor and elders held this afternoon , pa
pers , answers , petitions and statements were
submitted by the pastoral committee that
caused a commotion. Pastor Williams' nn-
swcrto the specific charge made against him
is a lengthy document admitting a major portion
tion of the alleged accusations and further
explaining his legal grounds for his course.
A bomb that caused consternation nnd pro
found dismay anne In the shnpo of n
voluminous document , signed by nearly one
hundred of the ladles of the church who
were said to have withdrawn because they
were opposed to tlio pastor. The document
says this is untrue. Thcro are not more than
six ladies among the opposition who were at
uny tlmo connected with tiny of the ladies'
societies. ' 'Furthermore , " say the ladles ,
"some of them wcro bitter opposers of some
of the ciders nti the ground of the
unfltness of said ciders to minister in holy
things , and nt leastone of said ciders plays
cards arid dances publicly during the week
and distributes the elements nt the com
munion service of the church on SmiOny.
Said Indies are now upholding those elders ,
whom they denounced a year ago as unlit to
perform the sncred duties of their oflieo as
elders.1'
Another paper , signed by 231 adherents of
the pastor , was a great surprise to the elders.
It says the signers "notify the presbytery of
Chicago that Adam K. Uunn , Andruw Drys-
dalu and Benjamin 1C. Vcrbryck , ciders In
said church , by their act and doing , nro very
unacceptable in their ofllcial character. "
It begins to look ntt though the elder * are
getting decidedly the worst of the fight.
