For $500 Damages. The Mill

Something Very Spicy.
The State.
Charlotte, N. C , Oct. 13.?Rev,
J. F. Austin, a labor union lecturer,
has brought suit for $50C
alleged damages as the result of
an editorial in The Mill News,
published at Chorlotte. The
preacher bases his suit ou all. ged
criminal libel. The preliminary
iiennuK iook pince at ivanaieman.
Under the heading, "Insult to
Injury." The Mill News comes
out here in an editorial and says
that Rev. J. F. Austin's attorney
at the Kaiidleman trial last Moudav
charges The Mill News with
adding "insult to injury" by
talking as he (the attorney)
claims to private individuals in
that town relative to the charges
recently made against Austin in
The Mill News.
Continuing, the editorial says :
"It is in nospiritof boasting that
we challenge Austin to show anything
against the character of
either of the proprietors of The
Mill News. * * * And we
will further add that neither of
us has ever been drunk ; neither
of us has ever been a blackguard
and a blasphemer; neither of us
has ever been arrested for drunkenness
and had conduct; both
of us are living with our wives
and making an honost effort to
provide for then;, and have been
ever since we were married ;
neither of us has ever had men
for whom we were working
1 watch us day by day to see that
we did not swindle them ; neither
of us has ever disgraced the
church by trailing its ministerial
robes in the dirt, nor has either
of us ever baptised a dead woman."

New York, Oct. 14.? Henry
VVlikens, a Nassau street saloon
keeper, killed himself today. He
* was despondent over continued
ill-health. "

' Brooklyn in the morning after
kissing his wife several times.
Wheu he got to his saloon in this
city he telephoned an undertaker,
telling him a friend of hia

would probably get the jr?b of
burying him. At noon he sent a
bootblack with a note to Mrs.
VVilkens and followed this with
another by a second bootblack to
the undertaker.
The two notes announced his
suicide, and brought the wife and
undertaker to the saloon. Not

the door. On the bar was a note,
which ready : "Body in the ice
box."
Wilkens was found dead in the
big ice box in the cellar. The
door of it was shut light, and gas
fumes filled it.
The body hung by a piece of
clothesline and two hooks were
driven into a joist overhead. A
45 calibre revolver was tied
about his chest and a rubber
hose fastened to the gas fixture
hung at his side. The arrangement
of the revolver showed
groat care and pains. It was fastened
with a piece of clothesline,
the strings of which had been
unwound and so fastened to the
weapon as to make it point almoet
directly toward the man's
heart. A yard of twine, fastened
to the trigger, had a loop in the
other end of it, so as to make it
possible for Wilkens to slip his
foot in it and pull the trigger in
that way He had evidently
stood on a half empty barrel
nearby, adjusted the rope and
the revolver and had turned on
tho gas and put the end of the
tube in his mouth. He bad then j
stepped off the half barrel. There |
was a bullet wound in his chest
and two cartridges in the revolver
had been discharged.

3NE8DAY, OCTOBE:
NEW YORK CITY'S VOTE
It May He the Pirital Point
Hryan'a Election.
Kichard Croker has announ<
that New York city will g
Bryan 100,000 majority over J
Kiiilev. There appears to bo
doubt that the Tammany 4,bo
is in earnest in his effort to g
Bryan a majority in the city t]
may overcome McKinley's maj
ity in the remaining counties
the State. The tact that ms
regard New York State as i
pivot of the national canvasi
that as New York State goes
will go the nation?adds exc<
tional interest to the extraor
nary efforts the Tammany De
ocrats are putting forth. Crokc
proposition to give New Y<
State's electoral vote to Bry
by giving the democratic ticl
100,000 majority in New Y<
city raises two distinct questio
The first of these is: Can Crol
make good his promise of 10
000 majority in New York cit
In 1690 New York, Kings a
Richmond counties,now embrac
in Greater New York, gave IV
Kinley 54.706 majority over Bi
an. In that election, howev
it is accepted that instead of si;
porting Bryan Croker and t
Tammany forces actually coop*
ated with the Republicans to
crease McKinley's vote in t
city. Greater New York's v<
in 1898, with Tammany doing
best for Van Wyck, resulted ir
majority for Van Wyck o\
Roosevelt of R1.1Q6
of 1898 indicates that it may
possible for Croker to make go
his promise.
It may be claimed that in 18
Roosevelt did not receive the f
Republican vote of New Yc
city because of the objection
his course as police commissior
and because of Republican a}
thy. But fairly offsetting t.1
Republican loss is the notable (
fection of the Bryan Democri
who opposed Croker's Candida
Von W irr?lr b??%'JSS Of CTOlcC
opposition to Bryan.
What will be the effect of 10
000 majority for Bryan in N<
York city on the result in N<
York State? In 1896, that p<
? "rx.. ? U ? 4.IJ. n

New York gave McKinely 21
373 more votes than Bryan. II
were possible for McKinley
obtain a similar majority outsi
Greater New York this year I
Croker's promised 100,000 map
rity for Bryan in the city wot
still allow McKinley over 10
000 more votes than Bryan
the State as a whole. But ta
the voto of 1898 as the basis :
figuring and tho outcome is d
ferent. In 1898 Roosevelt h
in the State outside the city
New York 98,982 more votes th
Van Wyck. If this excess
obtained by McMinley this y?
and New York city gives Bry
100,000 majority the latter woi
carry the State by a little oi
100,000 majority.
Presumably the vote of t
State of New York will be
creased over the vote of 1898
to 20 per cent. Probably nit
the larger proportion of this
crease will be in the cities,
peeially New York city. If,
example, the vote of Now Yc
should happen to be increas
this year 30 per cent, as co
pared with the vote of 1898, a
is divided between McKinley a
Bryan in the same proporti
that the vote of 1898 was divid
between Roosevelt and V
Wyck, Crocker's promise of 10

would be made good simply

crease in the State outside N(
