LONDON , Oct. 30. The case of Walter
M. Castle , the San Francisco merchant , and
his wtfo on a charge of shoplifting , pre
fer roil by various West End dealers , Is on
the docket for Monday next , but only the
solicitors for the case will appear nt that
tlmo. Thcro will without doubt bo a post
ponement. It Is expected that the case will
be definitely fixed for Thursday , when the
trial Is likely to proceed without Interrup
tion.
tion.A
A formidable array of counsel has been
ciigagcd to take part la the case , and by
the advlca of Mr. Castle's solicitor , the
ccscs of the husband and wlfo will bo pro
ceeded with separately. Of the distin
guished counsel who are to take part In
the trial , the husband's case will bo looked
nfter by Sir Frank Lock woo J , formerly
solicitor general In Lord Roscbcry's cab
inet , and who has recently returned from
a trip to the United States In company with
the lord chief justice. Baron Russell of
Klllowcn , and C. 1C. GUI , who conducted
the prosecution against Oscar Wlldo on bc-
liulf of the treasury. Mrs. Castle's case will
bo defended by Sir Edward Clarke , who
wan solicitor general In Lord Salisbury's
former ministry , and who has set all Eng
land by the cars by his recent declaration
that no Impartial arbitrator cau bo expected
tu dccldo the Venezuelan dispute In Great
Brltaln'n favor , nnd Charles Matthews.
This brilliant galaxy of legal lights glvo
assurance of n formidable contest on bo *
half of the defendants.
It Is decided that the defense In Mrs. Cas
tle's cane shall bo based on medical testi
mony. In addition to the oxpltctt aflldavlt
of a San Francisco doctor , who was familiar
with Mrs. Castle's case , testimony will be
offered of Dr. George Henry Savage , lec
turer on mental diseases at Guy's hospital
nnd author of a manual on Insanity , and Dr.
Gregg and Dr. L. N. Gabriel , who are among
the most eminent physicians In London on
women's diseases. Dr. Scott , the attending
physician nt Ilolloway jail , who had Mrs.
Castle under his charge , will also show that
Him was suffering from a woman's ailment
which would account for her mania.
With regard to Mr. Castle's case , his
bondsmen , who Include Mr. Seymour , man-
nglng director of the A 'o-Callfornla bank ;
Charles Guthrlo of Gutl./lo & Co. , bankers ,
Idol Lane ; Lewis Well ! , watch manufacturer
of Hatton Garden , and Augustus Cohen , diamond
mend merchant of Holborn , as well as a
largo number of friends and representatives
from the United States embassy , will offer
testimony as to his reputation for honor
and Integrity.
Mr. Castle said today to a representative
of the Associated press : "My wlfo la still
In the same condition as she has been ever
Blnco this unhappy affair , and she requires
tl'o constant and watchful care of nurses
nnd doctors. I do not expect to have her
Improve until the strain of the present po
sition la ended. Our boy Is staying with
relatives In the country.
"Tho trial cannot como too quickly for
me , " Mr. Castle continued. "Tho authori
ties are treating me very nicely since our
ball has been accepted and I have no com
plaint to offer now. They have returned tome
mo our trunks and all our clothing , only
keeping the jewelry and knlcknacks till
nftcr the trial. "
U Is estimated this trial will cost Mr.
Castle 5.000 ( $25,000) ) . Sir Edward Clarke
and others of the counsel probably require
n retainer of $2,500 dally , with refreshers of
$500 to $1,000 , In addition to which the doc
tors' and solicitors' fees are to bo con
sidered. , _ _ _ _ _ _

the following statement this morning : Thcro
Ifl good reason to bcltcvo a tribunal similar
to the Bering sea commission , with Sir
RlcharJ Webster , the attorney general , rep
resenting England , will bo appointed to
solve the Venezuelan boundary affair.
This statement , however , haa received no
official confirmation. Queatloncd about It
this afternoon , however , a high official of
the Foreign ofllco tmld that ho bad no
knowledge of the appointment ot such n
tribunal. Asked whether. If such a tribunal
should bo appointed , alt the territory claimed
by Venezuela would bo Included In the ar
bitration , ho replied : "That Is the essence
of the whole matter. Venezuela only
claimed all along- the territory to the bank
of the I > sequlbo. Every ono knows that por-
tlon was settled by the Dutch ; and Venezu
ela throughout haa been so stubborn In the
matter that It has been Impossible to ar-
rlvo at any conclusion. If the entire dis
puted territory was submitted to arbitration
It might Involve giving up the greater part
of the colony. However , the matter Is now
under discussion and whllo a state matter
la being discussed , I must await a report
before expressing an opinion. "
WASHINGTON , Oct. 30. Close Inquiry

Sir Richard Webster haa been selected BB n
member of a commission to arbitrate the
Venezuelan boundary question , falls to de
velop confirmation of any sort for the state
ment. Whllo the negotiations nro progress-
ng they have not reached the stage where
.hey relate to the personnel of an arbitra
tion commission , but arc Rtlll devoted to a
llscusston of the limitations to bo Imposed
upon any committee to bo created. From
: bo high reputation of Sir Richard Webster
its Rejection Is not regarded as Improbable
when the negotiations reach the proper
phase , but it Is pointed out hero that the
nomination was not made from n source In
political sympathy with the present British
cabinet.

FORT WAYNE , Ind. , Oct. 30. General
Harrison closed the first day ot his second
Indiana tour nt Fort Wayne , where ho spoke
briefly at 8 o'clock this evening. The ex-
president started from Indianapolis by spe
cial train over the Panhandle railroad at
9 o'clock this morning on his two days'
speaking tour , this tlmo visiting the eastern
and northern towns of the state. I o was
escorted to the station by the McKlnley and
Hobart Blcyclo club. A few personal friends
accompanied General Harrison , among them
being John Flnncy of Boston. At the station
General Harrison was greeted by n number
of people , who had gathered to glvo him a
parting cheer. Ho made no remarks , saying
lie wished to save his voice for the Itinerary.
The train was In charge of Superintendent
F. Q. Darlington of the Pennsylvania road ,
The first stop was at Greenfield. On a stand
near the railroad General Harrison spoke
for twenty minutes to 3,000 or 4,000 people.
Ho addressed himself to n comparison of
the financial plank ot the democratic plat
forms of 18S3 , 1SD2 and 1S35. He said :
My friends , my democratic friends. If you
wcro ns ready today to condemn nnd de
nounce doctrines on the money question
which In the campaign of 1SS2 nnd In the
campalng of 1SSS you were naked to favor
nnd promote , you mny well put these who
give you thnt ndvlco upon a showing na to
why they nsk you to thus change your
position. In 1SSS your platform did not dc-
rlnre for the free niul unlimited and In
dependent colnngo of Hllvcr nt the ratio of
li ( to 1. nimetnlllsm does not Involve the
frco nnd unlimited coinage of silver nt 10 to
I ; It does not Involve this Idea , of a double
Rtnndnnl In the sense In which It Is now
used by ninny In debate. AVhcn you recall
the campaign of 1S92 you did not then de-
cbiro for the free nnd unlimited coinage ol
Bllvcr at the rntlo of 1G to I. You declared
for frco coinage , but you made It em
phatic In your resolution on thnt sub
ject , that the parity of our coins , the equal
ity of our dollars , paper and coin must bo
preserved.
At Knlghtstown fully 10,000 people were
assembled on the public square. General
Harrison again discussed the money ques
tion. He said :
It has been said by Mr , . Bryan and by
many following his lead thnt the republican
riaVty \vearlnir a mask that It la not
openly nnd candidly declaring Its principles
I deny thnt that Is true. The republican
party proclaims IU principles nnd the
corner atone of our beliefs upon the mone >
question. We proclaim thin proposition
that every dollar wo hnve , paper , gold or Bll-
ver , shall bo ns peed ns tiny other dollar.
Wo proclaim and adhere to that proposition
because It is the only honest principle
Things thnt nre called by thf same name
ought to be the snmo thlngB. When you ml
ono thing a dollar nnd another thing n dollar
lar they ought to mean th same thing. If
they do not , the use of these terms con
Initially cheats nnd deceives the people.
ABOUT THE COERCION CRY.
At Anderson General Harrison was greeted
by enthusiastic crowds , and there ho eald :
Wo nro hearing a good deal In this cam
paign about coercion , nnd It has xeemed to
me that we have n fair Illustration here thlt
morning' . Thcso thousands of pee le , their
Intelligent nnd Interested faces , their cheers
and enthusiasm , nro the llnest possible refu

now for the moment to the men whose
brawn nnd skill nre exercised In the great
manufacturing eatnbllshmrnts you hnvo
been ndvlsed by a man who Becks your voles
for the llrst honorublo ollleo in the gift of
free men , to simulate , to deceive your em
ployers , to deceive your fellow men by wear
ing a false button on your brenlt , by cheer
ing for principles nnd candidates thnt you
do not favor , by mnrchlng In pnrndes of
a party whoso principles you do not adopt
nnd at the end of this campaign of simula
tion nnd deception to go Into the voting
booth nnd vote for him. It Is not good ml-
vice. It la ndvlce thnt Oocs not recosnlzo
the Independent manhood nnd Individual
worth of the men who toll In these great
factories. I say to you ns a republican who
bellovcs that your Interest Is to be found
in the maintenance of republican princi
ples nnd In the election ot William.McKln
ley Hint If the reasons I advance for this
fnlth , nnd that hnvc been ndvnnced by
others moro able to present them , do not
convince your Intellect that It Is to your
Interest to do so. I beff you as ono who
esteems the dignity of a nmn without re-
card to the question of his employment , to
bo a man and if you vote for Bryan to wenr
the Bryan button. I beg you not to consent
tovnlk those streets , to stand nt the bench
where you nro employed , proclaiming to
the world nnd confessing to your own con
science thnt you hnve surrendered your
very manhood and your political Inde
pendence. I believe thnt these Intelligent
worklnpmen In the gns belt will ncccpt thut
suggestion ns a compliment to their man
hood nnd their Integrity.
Brief speeches were made at 'Munclo and
Winchester , tJcneral Harrison confining him
self to the financial question.

CHICAGO , Oct. 30. ( Special Telegram. )
The approach of election day and. the con
sequent anxiety for anjwerwhclmlng defeat
of the frco stiver delusion Is leading thou
sands of sound money democrats all over the
country to decide to vote for McKlnley. The
fact that each ono of them can accomplish
twlco as much for the defeat of Bryan am
free silver by voting for McKlnley as by
voting for the sound money democratic ticket
is causing many who wcro supporting the
third ticket to declare for McKlnley. Ad
vices from Michigan state that Don M. Dick
inson's public announcement , In a speech at
his home , that he will vote for McKlnlej
will result In the addition of 10,000 votes to
McKlnley's majority In that state alone , am
Is having grcat'lnllucnco In other states.
Mr. Bi'yan has gone scorching Into Wiscon

half ot the big atidlcnc6l hoard what ho

tribute to democrats who are aiding In the
support of McKlnlcy and opposing the Chicago
cage platform and ticket , jujlo Indulged In
a short review of the history and accom
plishments of the rcpubllctdr party , claiming
that the republican party hid made n better
average than any other parly In the history
of the United States. With the aid ot loyal
democrats they had saved the country dur
ing tbo war nnd ho askedt'tbo democrats It
they were not proud of the'.part they had
taken at thnt time. Ho praised the repub
lican party for what It had done In re
suming specie payments. " % Blnce that tlmo
the country had pnld off an enormous amount
of debts. Many who hcldltheso debts paid
only 75 cents on the dollafTbut paid when
the risk was very great nrMllt Is only right
they should bo paid the fi > .ll amount. The
United States might have Vald as the con
federate states did. but thn" nation arose to
the emergency and held ovrVy bond as sacred
as a soldier's grave. Thoirenubllcan party
made It so. |
In discussing greenbacks , Mr. Reed said
that many had said tbcyjE-had carried us
through the war. Ho dul not believe It.
There Is some virtue In flai.inoncy In a cer
tain amount , but when legislative bodies are
sure to bo asked to ninkojover Issue It Is
like getting Into a big holeand then trying
to climb out. Following the resumption of
spcclo payments , Mr. ncedlsald , came four
teen years of the grcatesif'prosporlty ever
known. This was due toj'republlcan man
agement of the governmcdU In referring
to the election four years ? ago , Mr. Heed
said the people failed to Chow their usual
common sense. Ho criticised the Wilson
bill , holding democratic tariff legislation ami
bad administration wcrof responsible for
much of the hard times. SaId ho : "Wo
never refer to that as the orimo of 1892. ' '
Ho said the democratic party had been In
capable of running the business of the gov
ernment because that part .Ja controlled by
men who are not buslnen6 men. He ac
knowledged that ho disliked ! to discuss the
silver question , for after a jfcjv months study
Is seemed so ( rival to hlm < tuat ho wondered

for St.
KANSAS CITY , Oct. 30. Two big nuill-
cnccs turned out hero tonight to greet the
national democratic party's candidates. At
the aillls theater , Into which about 3,000
people crowded , General Palmer was the
speaker. Ho referred briefly to today's
riotous demonstrations at I'arls and Faycttc ,
stating that frco speech had not been per
mitted. At Turner hall General Buckncr
and Judge Chester H. Crum of St. Louis
addressed another big audience. At both
places the audiences was respectful and at
tentive. Before the party left the city for
St. Louis at 11 o'clock tonight , Qcncral
Calmer addressed the Veterans' Sound Money
cnguo at ono of the Grand Army hulls. A
company of Grand Army veterans acted as
escort for tbo generals during their stay In
the city.
The day had been an exciting one. At
Paris and Fayctte , Mo. , the candidates \vcro
greeted by crowds of rowdy Dryanltcs.
At Paris Generals Palmer and IJuckncr
were met at the depot by 500 people. It proved
an unwelcome greeting they received , and the
party was compelled to pull out without
accomplishing anything. An the candidates
stood on tbo rear platform with their heads
bared a number of young men pushed up
with a big Bryan banner and shoved It
under the noses of the generals. The dis
turbers at the same time hooted for Palmer.
Several efforts of General Buckncr to speak
were interrupted by cries of "Hurrah for
Bryan , " many In the crowd yelling "Look
at the McKlnlcy aid society. "
Stung at this last fling General Buckncr
pointed at the banner nnd eald : "Let mo
tell you who and what constituted the Mc
Klnlcy aid society. In 1892 , on ft sound
money platform , wo elected Grovcr Cleve
land , but the last elections In Missouri , In
Illinois , In Kentucky , In Ohio , wcro disas
trous because you , you shoutcrs , with your
heresies , drove the party on to failure and
contempt. Hold up that banner. There Is
the emblem of the McKlnley aid society.
Look at It. "
The nominee's voleo rang out clear. The
roughs were ashamed and let their ban
ner drop to the ground. Finally the train
had to pull cut to get away from the roughs.
Many In the crowd expressed regret at the
occurrence.
From Paris telcsrams were sent forward
to Fayctte , and at that place Generals
Polraor and Bucknrr received oven worse
treatment than' at Paris , nnd for a tlmo
violence was threatened the candidates.
The party was greeted by a howling mob ,
which scorned bent on causing trouble from
the moment the train stopped. No sooner
had the two generals emerged upon the
car platform than a Bryan banner , bearing
the Inscription , "Fayctto Democratic
club , " was thrust Into General Palmer's
face * by Its bearer. A citizen named Wil
liams tried to urge peace , nnd the gold men
milled and rushed the Bryan banner back. ,
This only made the disturbers more ugly.
-A man tried to punch General Buckncr
with a flagpole , and Williams seized It , and
the crowd rushed upon him and began
boating him. The rioters then tried to get
at the generals and strlkn them with their
banners. Scores of men fought bitterly
around the car end ; women wcro pushed
about and knocked down , and many blows
were exchanged. An old farmer climbed
onto the rear end of the car and shouted :
"You arc carrying Missouri for McKlnley. "
Ho was pulled down by the crowd. After live
minutes of lighting , screaming and tooting
horns the train pulli'd out without the can
didates even attempting to make a speech.
Moat of the rioters were young and belonged
to the so-called Fayctto Democratic club.
They wore high white hats with Bryan's
name Inscribed thereon and white badges ,
Most of them seemed to belong to the well-
to-do element. Mrs. Palmer and Mrs. Buek-
ncr , who arc accompanying the candidates ,
wcro witnesses of the scenes of disorder.
Aboard the train the party showed the ut
most surprise at the treatment accorded.
Said General Buckner : "All through Iowa we
were treated with great courtesy. I did not
believe wo would bo shown such disrespect
In Missouri. "
The Central college hoys ran after the
train as It pulled out of Fayette , and with
loud cries begged the generals to believe
that had they known of the plan they would
have stopped It with the aid of the good
citizens and the old soldiers.
At Warrcnsburg a big crowd turned cut
to greet the candidates. In closing his ad
dress from the car platform General Palmer
said : "I promlso you , my fellow democrat ,
I will not consider It any great fault If you
decide next .Tuesday to cast your ballots
for William. McKlnley , although you may.
If vou desireIt , vote for Palmer and Buck-
ner. "
At other points along the line the party
was greeted by respectful crowds , and the
remainder of the trip to Kansas City ,
which was reached this evening , was made
without Incident.

I traveled from Chicago to St. Paul nnd

Thence Into California to San Francisco.
Chicago WUB outwardly busy and prosper

but Ims more hope from thu HBO In vlitiit.
The northwest Is suffering oven San Frnn-

It Is u light of the masses against the

cast.Now York nnd Chicago hope McKlnloy
will carry several western states. San
Frnnclsco nnd Portland disbelieve thin. Mc
Klnley Is unpopular In tbo west. Sound
money and llnnmi arc dlsllkcx ! by the

election will bo very close. People nro hope
ful , but not conlldPiit that McKlnley will
win. The bfHt judges fear u continuance
of the uneasiness.
I ( Ind no dlHlIko toward England , Per

The cool-headed say they never saw such

Bryan Is personally respected. Ho Is

WASHINGTON. Oct. 30. ( Special Tele
gram. } Mr. John Hyde of the Department
of Agriculture , author of the recent report
on "Wheat Prices , " published In The Boo ,
brands as a Ho made ofwhole cloth a state
ment that has appeared In certain papers
that ho had given It as his judgment that
the present rise In wheat had been planned
by speculators.
Mr. Hyde declares that If ever there was
n rlso In prices that was strictly legitimate
It Is the present rlso In wheat. Advices
received from Russia , India and Argentina
report such short crops In those countries
as to make a big shortage In the world's
supply a matter of absolute certainty , and ,
notwithstanding the oscillations of the past
few days , Mr. Hyde looks for still higher
prices.
Speculation , ho says , Is usually most
cctlvo when , as at the present time , the
Impossibility of ascertaining the full and
precise effect of an Important change In
conditions leaves some llttlo room for
doubt or speculation as to the near future ,
Jint , It Is the greatest folly or the most
criminal mendacity to say that the present
speculation' In wheat Is Itself the cause of
the rlso In prices. Those who make such
statements are proving themselves false
friends of the farmers , because If the pres
ent rlso U fictitious , It would bo clearly
to the farmers' Interest to take Immediate
advantage of It , whereas every legitimate
Indication Is to the effect that the farmer
will do better by not crowding his wheat
on the market Just at this tlmo.

SAN FRANCISCO , Oct. 30. Wheat was
more Irregular today than yesterday , bul
the situation continues strong. In this
market speculative options opened at a
sharp advance , but weak cables came from
Liverpool and there were sharp sales to DO
cure profits , and prices afterwards -went
slightly below yesterday's closing points
At the call board In this city the trans
actions during the morning were fairly
large , moat of the sales being for account
of room traders and country speculators ,
who took their profits. At 9:15 : December
opened at $1.40 per cental ; May opened at
$1.4014 and closed at | 1.4C. Ab 10:15 : prices
had a hharp decline. December opened at
$1.38 , May opened at $1.454 , declined to
$1.44 % and closed at $1.44 5-0. At 11:15 : December -

lanna nnd tbo plutocrats no efforts have
icon spared by tbo local Bryanttcs to force
rtbtito from tbo silver mine owners to bol
ster up the cause ot Bryan In hto homo
state. H Is nn open secret thnt noon after
Aryan's nomination an urgent call was
nado upon the bulllonnrlcs for help to keep
Mr. Bryan's personal Omaha organ on Its
cgs. Thcso appeals wcro In part successful
aud wore responded to by Omaha and Denver
; > coplo Interested In silver smelting and
mining to the tune of several thousand del
lars.
lars.As
As the campaign progressed new rcqulsl-
.lons wcro made for additional contribu
tions. Some ot thcso wcro ( solicited from
wage workers under cover of the poverty
cry and sympathy dodge. But these wcro
only a mask for the big deal that was to
como. ,
Last week , Wednesday , G. M. Hitchcock ,
publisher of the Omaha World-Herald , left
: ho city on an Important political mission.
To friends whom ho met nt' the depot ho
gave It out that ho was bound for Chicago.
Instead , however , ot boarding the Chicago
train , hogot ( on the Burlington train going
west. Ho rode on a Burlington annual pass
and had sleeper accommodations engaged
aa far as Billings , the end ot the lino. Ho
reached Butte , Mont. , Thursday , and spent
all day In company with the editor of the
Anaconda Standard , who made appointments
with him to meet Marcus Dally , the Ana
conda sliver king ; W. A. Clark and other
silver millionaires.
The con ej-gncjj van ' effected Friday After
noon and tho'outco'mo was not entirely sat
isfactory to the Bryan emissary. H re
sulted In a contribution by Dally of $2,500
on condition that $3COO more bo raised
among the business , men ot Butte. This was
done In less than twenty-four hours nnd
the money handed over to HtU-hcock. It li
reliably reported that Dally managed to
recoup himself for this and previous con
tributions to the Bryanlto campaign fund
by having the Anaconda Mining company ,
of which he Is chief owner , take $10.CO out
of the wages of each miner employed on
the last pay day.
After getting the Montana sliver trust
boodle Hitchcock started homeward over the
Union Pacific , by way of Salt Lake and
Denver. In each of tboso cities ho made
piteous appeals to the big silver men to
help him save Nebraska for Bryan. The
-exact amount of the contributions secured
from Utah and Colorado members of the
silver trust has not yet leaked out. It Is
said to run up Into the thousands. The
report there Is that each state duplicated
Montana'a gift. Suffice It to say that Hitch
cock came back to Omaha flush with money
and ready to distribute the stuff where It
Is expected to do the most good. Up to
date the popocratio workers have only re
ceived n small part of the frco silver boodle ,
but they have been assured that they will
got all they want after the allotment has
been made to various county committees.
The first Installment of the'Montana , Utah
and Colorado money Is said to bo set aside
for the town of Lincoln. The supporters
of Bryan are determined to make a great
showing In Mr. Bryan's homo town , no matter -
tor how much It costs.
The second big block has been reserved for
Omaha , where the sliver forces are to bo
liberally supplied with whatever may bo
needed between now and election day.

IlrynnlteH Aliniuloii Argument anil Put
DP 11 IIiiKy Man.
The Bryan men hold what was Intended
to bo the greatest demonstration of the cam
paign up to date at tbo Boyd's last evening.
It was given out that it was to bo a laboring
man's meeting and < a number of leading
labor agitators wcro billed to speak. The
opera house contained a good-sized and
fairly enthusiastic crowd , a conblderablo pro
portion of which was women. S. J. Kent
of Lincoln was the chairman and the prin
ciple speaker of the evening. Ho made no
attempt to present a logical argument on
the Issues of tbo campaign , but devoted
his time to telling the laboring men that
It , waa the plan of the republican managers
If McKlnloy was elected to practically make
slaves of them. Mark Hann.i was used as
the boygman to frighten the laborers and
never was giant or griffin painted In moro
frightful language to a child to i-cnro It
Into being good than V'as Hanna portrayed
to the laborers. When lie had finished this
topic his tlmo was up aud ho had no oppor
tunity to tell the laborers how frco silver
was going to provide positions for the la
borers who wcro out of work.
There were a number of other speakers
who each occupied a few minutes. Among
them were : Miss Mary Fnlrbrothcr , J.
