Distinguished Gathering at Canton, O. —Gov. MeKlnley and Othera Speak. CAHTOW, 0., March 29.— The Republican tariff banquet given here tonight waa a political success. Four hundred guests were present from various cities in Ohio. The banquet was spread in the Tabernacle, a mammoth structure dedicated to political purposes in 1884, in a •peech by J. O. Blaine.

Foraker, ex-Speaker Keed, Senator Manderaon and Congress man Dalzeli. With the exception of that of Senator Bherman the lettera of regret contained no significant utterances. Sher man took occasion to diacuss financial questions. Ua aaid what waa needed was honest currency, and his experience had ehown him that notes of national banks, secured by an equal or greater amount of United Statea bonds, waa the best cur rency that had yet been devised. Con tinuing, the letter aaid: Notea of the United States, carefully limited in aiuouut, and backed by tbe credit of our whola pjopie, supported with ample reservea in coin, and with clear authority in case of neces sity to redeem them in eoln by the sale of bonds, have proved by our experience since January 1, lhß7, to be a wise and aafe curreucy, the profits of which Inure entirely to tbe benefit of our people. The chief fear is that theae notea will aot be aafely restricted by law, and that their eredlt may be impaired and destroyed by the carrylnf out of wild and visionary notions re gent lug the ooinage of allver. The senator expresses the hope, how ever, that the silver coinage delusion has passed away. In conclusion be said: The solution of the silver problemn ia to put into our allver dollar enough allver, at market value, to be equal to the gold dollar, and to maiataia all forma of money, whether coin or notes, oi equal interchangeable value GOT. McKtalejr responded to the tout: "The Republican Presidents." Hon. D. K. Watson, of Columbus; Hon. P. GL Young, of New Lisbon; Hon. J. I. Squire, Btate Senator Green and James R. Garfield also spoke. Gov. McKmley, in tbe coarse of bis address, reviewed the life and services of tbe various Republican presidents. Speaking of Harrison, he said the administration was pore, vigor ous aud patriotic, and that his own con temporaries will give him his true place in history. Continuing he said: Tbe country needs tbe Republican party, for Ita principle*, purpoaes and policiea underlie •vary American internal and aro allied with ita true growth and advancement, bluce 1*59 until now the I*emocratic party baa been with out power to do anything with public meaaurea without the sanction ol the Keputdlcan party.

Mr. Morrell was attending lodge meeting and his wife was at church. Bhe however returned early and retired. About II o'clock she was awakened by aome one in her room atanding at her trunk. At first she thought It waa her hus band, but a closer observation revealed the mis take end she gave a shriek. The burglar made e rush for a window which be had prevlonaly left open and disappeared. Jn bia baste he dropped some spoons bat clung on to a gold watch and chain, the property of Mrs. MorrelL When the house waa eearched to see what had been taken in addition, it waa discovered that a macklntoah had alao disappeared. Mr. Morrell reported the affair to the police yesterday morn ing and cave a description of the missing ar ticles. The caae waa given to the detectivea, but while they were investigating, Officer Bam Corbett waa having a lively time down in the Whitechapel district, near the corner of South Seventh and Lane streeta It was simply a case where an officer, by putting two end two to gether, formed a correct combination and made an important capture. Officer Corbett waa on King street, when a fel low came along and said in a Joking manner: "Well, Sam, who la the fellow that is trying to sell a watch to that Chinaman at the end of the little walk?" "Give it up," Mid Corbett "I will go and •ea." He did not mention the fact that a word dropped atx>ut a atolea watch conveyed any thing to his mind. „ When he sft>t down to Lung Lee's laundry, which Is on the tide flats, and reached by rotten boards, be aaw Edward A. Walters keeping a watch o( the laundry. Cor* bett knew Walters, because he arrested him several weeks ago for ateallng some baiting from a Taeoraa mill, aud Waters had not for gotten Corbott He walked quickly down the narrow-gauge track until he reached the en trance to Blackcbapsl alley, but the offl<*er cap tured him, and in bis u*ualsto:cal mauter Wal ters remaiued perfect y quiet.

Then Corbott went back to the Chi nese laundry end wen! in. lie iound Ander son with a lady's gold watch and chain In hand, trying to sell them for ••Why sell?" said the Chinaman. ••Oh, I've just come from Chicago," waa the reply, "and I'm broke." "Come along with me," interposed Corbett, and Anderson, meek as a lamb, went out of the aback, watch in hand. When be got Corbett at a place where a scufflj put one or both in danger of going into the bay he changed bis demeanor and jumDlng forward struck bis captor a shoul der blow In the eye. For a moment 'Corbett staggered, but then recovering himself went at Anderson In much the same manner as be tackled the negro who tried to knock him out in the American bouse about six months ago. Anderson went to the planking and Corbett on top, but as they went dowu the desperado threw the watch over his head toward the south aide of the track treetle, where the water was ditty but deep, It stopped six inches from the ed?e, but Corbet waa not aware of it and kept on •truggling with Anderson. The latter probably thinking that he bad destroyed all evidence against him, gave up the battle and submitted to tba handcuffs. Then ha and Kdwards wet taken to the police station and bodked wits -no charge against them. The watch was given to Detective Philbrick, who succeeded in getting it identified by Mr. Morrell as the one taken from his wife's trunk.

The chain. of eiroamHantial evidence la ao strong against tha men, especially Anderson, tbat thoy will doubtless be beld on the charge of burglary.
