Senator Charles J. Faulkner of West Virginia,
Chairman of tho Popocratle Congrets Cotu-niltu-e.
and A. J. Warner of Ohio, who were In-
it d tn meet Chairman Jones here and Join In
hlr conference with the New York leaders.
the Chairman and this gentlemen were
greatly cast dovv n when they found that Sena
tor I1U1. hearing of their coming, had gone back
I In Albany the night before, but they found
sntuu satisfaction In the Tlalt of Mr. Sheehan of
T tn ninny Hall.
Mr. bheehan called on the Chairman just
after the latter had had his breakfast at the
Fifth Arenue Hotel. He hail a half hour's talk
till the Senator. Treasurer St. John called
about the same tlmo and talked about the low
eb'j In the Bryan campaign treasury.
When these statemcn had seen the Chair
man and had raid that the had nothing to
nay to the reportors about tho result of their
-visit. Senator Jones received the reporters and
told of Ills mission In New York.
"I desired," said he, "tn meet some of the
party leaders, because tho New York Stale Con
vention ts tn be Held, next week, and 1 wished to
talk with them about the character of the cam
paign which Is to be conducted here after that
Convention. The management of the cam
paign, of course, will be entirely In tho
hands of the Stato Committee, and any
thing the National Committee does will be dune
in an advisory rapacity. We are Interested
In knowing who will manage the campaign and
In having an active campaign conducted. That
Is all I have written to several gentlemen and
communicated with others by wire, asking
them tn meet me here to-day. I hare not heard
from ome of them. 1 sent a telegram to Sen
ator Hill and have had no reply. lVrhaps he
did not receive my communication."
Toward evening, when Senator Junes's list of
caller was still destitute of the name of party
leaders, be said that he had been Informed that
his telegram had not reached Senator Hill.
When asked If ne had sent another request tn
Senator Hill, or if the latter bad communicated
with him In any way, he replied that neither of
tbete things had occurred. He said he believed
that Senator Hill would be for Bryan and the
platform, and Senator Faulkner echoed this.
The Impending resignation of William F.
Sheehan aa National Committeeman, which
Tni Set mentioned the other day. was talked
abo'jt, and Senstor Jones was asked what the
I National Committee will do about It.
"If It la the purpose of Mr. Sueeban not to
support the ticket I should suppose he would
resign from the committee," said Mr. Jones. ,
As to nt succeaor. there Is some question as
tn the right of the National Committer, to All
the vacancy. I am sure, though, that there
would be nn objection to any one who might ba
recommended by the State Convention at Buf
falo or b the State Committee."
There will be no branch headquarters nf the
atlocil Committee in this city, according to
Senator Jones, who said that the State Com
mittee woald bo quite capable of conducting the
campaign In this Mate.
"Mr. St, John." he slid, "is Treasurer of the
National Committee, and will remain so. His
services have been eminently satisfactory."
Whllron the UDjrct of finances. Mr. Jones
aid that contributions to the campaign fund are
neither n meagre nor so plentiful aahavobeen
represented. He nalit that the Democratic ma
Inrlty In Arkansas was bigger than he expected.
When he was asked to account for the heavy
irrreaae In the Itepubllcan vote In that State
he hemmed anit hawed a bit and then said tht
Hindi tied uni sua! interest In the campaign.
After generalizing nn the situation In the West.
ttte Senator was pinned down to details and
a'k'il as to the possibility of Bryan tarrying
IlKnoi-.
"lam not absolutely sure of carrying Illi
nois" he said, "hut In the South nnd West the
Pop 1 st, are going to v nte wil h us."
The cnntnr refused to talk about the antics
d the second tail to the Bryan kite Tom Wat
son further than to say tnat ho did not be

chances.

One of the tweliu declared himself for the
free-liver onnilldAto and the other clrv on as
MTted their alliglar.ee to the cause of hnnist
money,
" W id!, what Is going to be the result In New

Mr. Sheehan says he told the Chairman that,
and als consulted with him regarding the
Ilrran meeting at Tammany Halt to be held on
reMt. '.'. at which he declared there will he
100.000 persons. A formerTammnny Hall leader
who heard this prediction last evening said:
" Bryan will be lucky If he gets 100.000 votes
In New York Uty.and Just what that means
will he understood when It la remembered that
Harrison got within a few votes of 100,000 here
In IW. "
Kx-")herIIT Jimmy O'Brien, who called nn
' halrman Jones again last night to keep him

A. Carpenter Robbed When He Went to
Oet Work nt rtleeel. Cooper A C'o,.
James Foley, a carpenter, 8fi years old, of 105
Third avenuo had an Interesting story to tell
Magistrate Cornell, In Jefferson Market Court,
yesterday, when he was arraigned by Police
man Frank of tho West Thirtieth street station
on a charge of Intoxication. Frank said that ho
found Foley asleep on a stoop In frontof 112
West Eighteenth street at 7 I. M. Thursday.
Foley seemed to be stupefied, and ho took him
to the station In a patrol wagon,
Foley, who described himself as n carpen
ter, said that ho read In the newspapers
that there was a strike In the Slegel-Cooper
Company store at Sixth avenuo nnd Eighteenth
street, and, as he knew that tho store would
need workmen, he took his two boxes of tools,
and went to the placo at 4 o'clock Thursday
afternoon to apply for a Job. He was mtt half
a block away by some pickets of tho strikers
and they Induced him to go to a saloon In
Eighteenth street, near Seventh avenue.
There they asked him to take a drink and ha
took a glass of beer. The men then begged him
not to go to work, and he told them that ho
needed the monev badly. Several of his family
were sick. He added that he had been out of
work for some time past and that this opportu
nity seemed to be a Uodsond.
When tho men saw that they could not per
suade him not to apply for work they asked
him tn Uko another drink. Within two min
utes after taking a second glass of beer he be
gan to feel dizzy and ho remembered nothing
more. He declared that the strikers must have
drugged htm and then carried hliu out of the
saloon to the street. He said that they had
taken his two boxes of tools, which he valued
at fiS.
Policeman Frank said that he believed that
the man had been drugged, as ho vvnn moro
stncltlod than Intoxicated when arrested.
Magistrate Cornell was much impressed by
Foley's story, and said that It was a rase to be
Investigated. He asked K ley tf he could Iden
tify the men who had enticed him to the saloon,
and Foley said that ho thought ho would know
them again. Magistrate Cornell accordingly
discharged Foley, and told Policeman Frank,
whose beat Is In frontof the Slegel-Cooper store,
to Investigate the carpenter's story, and If he
could find tho alleged culprits to arrest them
and bring them to court.

BnjM, All la l.oet Ue Flxae Ills Eye On
the laputlat Convention In Knnaaa and
Nebrnakn nnd rtprende t?onetarnntlon.
Int., Kan., Sept. 11, Just as the plains of
Kansas were beginning to resound with the Im
petuous flow of Thomas E. Watson's throbbing
eloquence this afternoon, a gentle'downpourot
rain set In. It gradually Increased In volume
until tho flow of water exceeded the flow of ora
tory, nnd Mr. Watson was prevented from com
pleting his work of hurling firebrands among
friends and foes.
This was Populist day at the Allen County
Agricultural Exhibition, and a thousand or
more Populists had gathered to hear the
heated Southerner talk of their grievances. Mr.
Watson began bis address by a review of con
ditions before 187.T. He worked his way gradu
ally up to the present, and Justified the present
existence of tha People's party by the state
ment that the Republlcaut had betrayed the
people tn tho crime of '73, and tho Democrats
had betrayed them by the crime of '03.
Both parties had assisted In killing the Green,
back party by asking It to trust Itself to the
Democrats In the South and the Republicans In
the West, He appealed to the people to leave
both parties, and asked It Kansas waa yet true
to the doctrine she taught to the Sonth. Cries
of "Vest" greeted this question, and then Mr.
Watson told his auditors that they were tn duty
bound to vote for him In preference to Mr.
Sewall. He said:
" I am the only representative the People's
party now has on the national ttcket. If lam
removed Bryan will lose Texas, Tennessee, and
Kentucky at least. To take me oft the ticket
splits the silver party and electa McKInlcy.
ICrlesof " That's right-"
" Mr. Sewall Is not a true stiver man. He has
not had the disease long enough. He supported
a Democrat goldhug named Wlnslow for Gov
ernor," Watson called Sewall a bondholder, a rail
road Ling, a millionaire, a supporter ot McKln
ley's tariff Idea, and a President of the Mer
chants' Marine Association of Philadelphia,
which asks for higher protection. Mr. Watson
said also that Chairman Jones received a letter
from Sewall at the time of the Populist Conven
tion Intimating that he would step down and
out whenever It was to Bryan's best Interest.
The fact that the letter was published recently
would Indicate that the time had come.
"Senator June, wants Sewall to come oh the
ticket. If he doesn't, let him deny It. brnn
wants Sewall to come off, buWro can't say an
thlng. What do you wantT Do you want to
vote for Watson ? You can't do it In Kansas
unless you put up a Bryan and Waton ticket,
lull say 1 can have your votes If I beat Sewall In
the rest of the country; here Is Watson, your
friend; here is Sewall. your enemy. Ytivt can't
help both. You stay in the loft whllo the tight
between Nancy and the bear goes on and then
when the tight is over, whichever way 11 goes,
jou comedown and brag about how 'we killed
the bear.' I don't go n cent on that fusion
agreement of yours, because there Is no court to
enforce It, I know these Democrats; they In
tend the Kansas vole shall go to Sewall. no
matter how the fight results outside. If you
doubt this, ask them to take down their elec
toral ticket and put uo ours. They won't do It,
I will stand by that contract on one condition
only, and that Is tnat you put on a Brian and
Yv alon ticket. If yuu arc a Poputttt. be a horo
of the faith, not a corrupted reneitade whn laid
down his principles and defeated the purpose of
his party. '
Mr. Watson said In conclusion:
" All I ran do Is to appeal to the people to say
whether I am to be placed under the heels of
4b Eaalern plutocrats,"
The ratfi'had btwn Increasing all through Mr.
Watson's speech and so he cut II short. Then
there was n general rush for shelter.
ToPr.xA.Kan..Sept. 11. The speaklnir tour or
Thomas Watson in Kansas has caused conster
nation In tne camp nf the Populists and Demo
crats who arranged a f uslnn nn the Slate and
electoral ticket, leaving Waisnn out of It alto

In Kansas will not support the Bryan and Sewall
electors, and he has promised to be here on the
lQth. when a Middle of the Itnad Stale Con
vention will be held to place In the tlel I a Bryan
and Watson ticket. Watson will go to Nuhrasica
to-morrow night and will speak at Lincoln on
Monday, and make two or three speeches at
other points in that State during the week. A

Trntnrnl Report of Itrinn' Tour.
Louisvit.i.r, Ky., Sept, 11. Tho cnlirirr-Jour-tidl
this mornlnc has a half-column editorial
article on Bryan and the Chicago Associated
Press. It tar,;
"It was evident during the whole of Mr. Itry
an's speaking tonr that the Associated Press
agent who accompanied him and wrote the de
scriptive Introductions which preceded tho re
ports of tho speeches waa the owner of an opu
lent Imagination. He very rarely condescended
to estimate a crowd at less than k'0,000. In
many Instances ha reported the crowds at fig
ures much larger than th entire population of
the regions In which tho speeches were made.
In several Instances the crowds were placed at
0,000 In halls whose capacity Is known to be
not over 5,000, Indeed, theso reports through
nut the whole tour r. ero so ridiculously extrava
gant that It was a common observation that the
Associated Press seemed to bo a thorough
Bryan partisan,
"It now turns out that the man authorized by
the Associated Press to mako theso reports waa
Mr. Bryan's own private secretary. This being
understood. It Is entirely unnecessary to. say
anything more on the subject.
" But, as we depend upou the Associated Press
for a part of the news, we are desirous that It
should furnish us only trustworthy news. We
therefor suggest that It secure an Impartial
newspaper man to take the place of Bryan's
secretary as Its representative on the speech
making tours ol the Popocratlc-Popullst-Sllrer
party nominee."

A tip was received at the East Sixty-seventh

on foot among some oldtlme burglars to loot
the residence of William I). Sloane. the carpet
manufacturer, at Fifth avenue and Seventy

were seen nt about 3 o'clock that afternoon In a
vacant lot In the rear of th house taking a
oareful diagram of the preralsesln a notebook,
Capt. Orant detailed Detectives Herllby and
Mating on the case. Thedetecllves reached ths
premises at about 0 o'clock, and for nearly flvo
hours they lay behind a large sack In the vacant
lot specified In the tip with their eyes glued on
the house.
At a little before 11 o'clock the detectives saw
two men comedown Fifth avenue and stop in
front of the house. After snrveylng Itearetully
the men separated and walked around the block
In opposite directions. They presently mst and
sat on a stoop at 31 East Seventy-second street,
between Madison and Park avenues. Thede
tecllves decided they were waiting for a later
hour before beginning operations
(letting ttrrd nt last, the detectives finally de
cided to arrest the pair in the hope of finding
evidence on them. The mn were very cool
when the handcuffs warn slipped on them, and
said they were merely nut "to get the air."
When searched at the station nothing of an
Incriminating nature was found on the prison
ers. They described themselves as Peter Mann,
sued 2A. and Stephen McKnr. 23. both of 1,'tiU

occasionally work there and sometimes lodged
there.

London, Sept. 11. Even European diplomacy
now recognizes the fact that the Immediate set
tlement nf the Turkish question Is Imperative
and Inov liable. It atltl It true that only In
Oreat Britain has the pressure of public opinion
upon the Government become Irresistible, but
popular sentiment In Franro nnd Germany Is
beginning to pronounce the doom of "the great
assassin," as Gladstone to-day descrllies him,
It Is persistently reported that the Powen
have decided tn dethrone Abdul Hamld by
force and to Install another Sultan In ths Ylldlx
Kiosk. It Is doubtful It this action really has
been agreed upon. It Is probable, on the other
hand, that the report that no agreement has
been rrAohnd may ho accepted ns true. How
ever that may be, tha Powers all admit thn
necessity ot adopting radical measures which
will Involve the stripping of the present Sultan
of hit power for mischief. This Is a distinct
advance from the position taken by Hussla
and tne. other Powers In the crisis of last No
vember. It means practically their consent to
the reopening ol the Eastern question nnd tho
grappling with the enormous perils of that
situation.
New indications appear almost hourly tend
ing to show England's determination to face
nnd. If necessary, to fore the crisis. Public
opinion Is being prepared carefully tor this ao
tlon by the Ixindon Uovcrnmeut organs. Tbut
the Stamford, In a strong leader to-day, says:
"Is there no way by which this scandal to
civilization In the dominions of the Sultan can
be stopped without a European war T Surely If
the arts of diplomacy are exhausted, as between
the Powers and the present Sultan, another oo
cupant might be. found for the somewhat peril
out throne he hat disgraced. The role of Abdul
Hamld Is not Indispensable to the preservation
of tho Ottoman empire. It Is Inconceivable that
be should be suffered to render nugatory the
efforts of the Powers to dltcbargo their obliga
tions toward the Christian races within his
dominions. With all their resources, moral
and material. It ought to be possible for the
Powers to bring tho Sultan's era of Govern
ment by massacre and outrage to an abrupt
close, either with hltn or without him."
Tho Standard further pleads for non-partisan
public demonstrations In favor of Iurd Salis
bury's adopting a strong policy, and protests
against letting the agitation take on tha form
of partisan criticism, which It threatens to do.
There are other signs of a crisis nt baud. Even
yesterdav's unexpected Increase of the bank
rate and the fall of consols receive ft political
Interpretation, nnd tho order of the Admiralty
to-day for tho Immediate commissioning of six
new commerce destroyers has a similar sig
nificance. It Is by no means clear how the Sultan's depo
sition would be accomplished, even if decided
on. Nothing less than the forcing nf the Dar
danelles b) the combined fleets and the lnndlng
of a largo forco at Constantinople would be
llkolv to bo effci live That would Involve heavy
lighting and many complications, unless. In
deed, the Turkish power of resistance suould
collapse unexpectedly, as did the Chinese two
years ago. It Is suggested that the moment has
now arrived for the young Turkey party to act,
Tho powers might give them tacit encourage
ment to put a now Sultan on the throne by
promising immediate recognition and moral
support.
The opinion Is gaining ground In Europe that
Abdul Hamld Is one of the most cunning of
madmen, and this strengthens the conviction
I that it Is necessary to bo rid of him. The latest
I news from Constantinople Is that popular ap
prehension Is Increasing. All Europe believes
that a series of dramatic events Is Impending.

Yesterday there wa, a heavy run nn tho bank, JfM
but there was every conlldcnco that under tho 'JB

tbaf the securities uf the Bank nt Commerce, U
consisting mainly of real rstalo mortgages, fjfl
could not be reallrcd on. tho other banks le- Sfl

noon of Louis Colomb and F. Leefo, individual JH
bookkeepers of tho bank, charged with being jH
Implicated In the defalcation. It I, reported SIB
that there will be two moro arrest, nf persons t.U
not associated directly with tho bank. mm
T he Indications are that It was a repetition of MM
the game phi) ed In New York some time ago j )
with the Shoe and Leather Bank of that city. U
Leefe is charged with having changed the M
ledger of Individual depositors. M
T ho United States Sub-Treasury has paid out H
over a million dollars to the local banks tu help Vfl
them out nnd ease the panic. The retxirt of tho ;;
Clearing House shows that the Clearing Houso M
banks liavo lost 81.034.nno in deposits during ';
the week, and S4,"42,600 compared with thin J3
date last year. m

whose failure on Wednesday precipitated tho afil
present panlo tn New Orleans, was mado clear -ftk
to-night. rr,
A careful examination of tho books showed t
that the bank has been robbed of $51)2,000 bv j
Its Indlv'dual bookkeepers, Frank Leefo nnd t
Lnuls Cnlnmb. Mr. Leefe getting S1H5.000 and
Colnrab 8407.000.
The trick was worked by means of dummy ?.i
depositors who were credited by tho two book- "
keepers with depositing large sums of money.
Both Leefe nnd Colomb aro men nf excellent j.
family and of the best personal reputa- J
tlon. They stuck to their books and t
worked nt the bank from 0 o'clock In j
tbo morning until 11 at nlsrht, which was .4X
necessary to keep their hooka nnd to prevent 4
their secret leaking out, and complained ou of jf
being mado to work ton much that a third book- $-
keeper was put on In March. 1?
The bnnk found Itself hard no six months ago. i
but waB unable tn understand tun cause. Silica -i
Hum It has been hard up perlodh ally, S-
Thls caused suspicion, nnd the hooks wero s!
cxamlred and the defalcation discovered. Pra- c
