'If the colored people would stand together we could niiike Mark Banna and "Willlain McKinlcy tremble in their Tiic spsukcr was Mr. T.T.

Mr. Fortune said that It amused him to see a man like Cnl William A. Pledger, who was. so intently Republican tiiat he was blue in both eys, and a man like Hon. C.

II. J. Taylor, who was so intensely Democratic that was white In both eye, bit together on the same platform. Surely it -was a case or the Jamb and the Hon lying down togctner, and he could but believe that the race was making progress. Tollths -politics futuie.

A black man or a yellow man on the Potomac River who feels that he is not to au equal extent responsible for the outrages committed hi other lands sleeps on a fool's Led and will wake up and fhid htmcelf lynched on some future occasion. 1 oau't saj anything altout our future In politics, but the past and present show that everything goo the white man gets, and to make sure that he won't miss anything lie grabs In the daik for what he does not see.

Mr. McKinley can cieate all the white party he wants, but in the next election In New York if he needs 1,500 votes lie won't pet them. I will help to kill him.

I did it for Mr P-lnine tthen needed and 1 can do it again. "We have 1,1500,000 votes, and yet thore liave only been four colored appointments. Our future in politics? It does make me tired Why not a colored man in the fal.iuet? Have we not earned the right to a Cabinet place with over 1.S00,-00D votes in the Republican Administration. Was not Fied TJouglass eminently qualified in every way to fill it? The Republicans talked differently nine months ago.

I hope every man who 1h dancing attendance on this Administration, hoping for a Job, will have to dance until his heels wear out. No white man tiosses Zion, and that is why I am trying to go there.

I have no future in politic, aavc the temple or Zion. I'll give a white man Just as much as he gives me. and I'll give him no morel. Do unto the white man as he docs unto Mr. Fortune spoke at some length and was repeatedly cheered.

He is easy, fluent nnd forcerul, and throws his whole soul Into bin subject. Before Mr. Fortune began bis address former Recorder Taylor Introduced Col. William A. pledger, the recognized colored Republican leader In Georgia, who made a short but stirring talk.

CmJULTT TO CHILDREN. Collection of Photographs Showing Abuse of Little Ones.

Humane Officer Samuel "Wilson is collecting photographs for a to be cstatdlshed at police headquarters, illustrating parental brutality. He has al ready had taken several pictures of children whose faces and forms were marred and scarred by terrible floggings and oilier abuse at the hands ot their parents or guardians. Thewc plmtographs wlU serve a double purpoi. They can be used as evidence ngilast the brutal parents where prosecutions are Iirought, and afterwards can placed In the gallery for inspection and future reference. Two or the most notable cases of which snap-shot pictures have leen taken arc those of Mary Craig, colored, and little Clarence Woodrurf.

The case or Mary Oraig. nine Tears of age, is now pending In the police cort. Her back shows myriads of scars and cuts, made, it Is alleged, by the merciless swishes of a itunch or switches in the hands of her father, while "he girl's race (side view) shown abrasions and bruises. The pliotograph of Utile Clarence Wood-rurr, three years of age, shows Ids face, terribly starred and burned, ono eye being entirely closed. It was taken in the Children's Hospital, where Clarence was sent for treatment.

It is alleged that he was struck by his stepfather and knocked on a red-hot stove. Other pictures will show cruelty to children In all Its various phases, and the gallery will not be a very pleasant one to look upon. IH CONTEMPT OF COMMONS Money Lender Kirkwood Refuses to Answer Questions. CoimuentH on His Treatment Compared IVltli Parliamentary Conduct Toward Cecil Illiodes. London, July 20.

John Kirkwood, the money-lender who, a few days ago, was summoned to the bar ot the House ot Commons Tor refusal to answer a question put to him by a special committee or the house regarding the exorbitant interest charged lorrowcrs, and who, it was finally decided by the house, should answer the question at the next meeting of the committee, did not appeal when the special committee met today. He sent as an excuse for his absence a doctor certificate, stating that he was suffering from lumbago. The committee will Mm again to tne House or Commons this afternoon. 1 he TjuiI that Kirkwood slwuld have been arraigned at the bar ot the house for refusing to answer a question excited considerable comment here, in view or the fact that the machinery ot Parliament was put in operation against him. an Insignificant private individual, while Cecil Rhodes and Mr.

Hawksley. his solicitor, were allowed to go K-ot free after openlv defying the Houte ot Commons by their refusal to produce tefore the South African committee ctam telegrams, which are md to have an Importaut bearing on the Transvaal raid. JOnN TUCKER'S NEW OUTFIT. Little Victim of Highwaymen in Big; "Policeman's Clothes. John Tucker, the colored gentleman who was roblJcdof his new plum-colored pantaloons and brilliant patent leather shoes, while on his way from Jackson City, was the recipient ol an appreciated gift yesterday morning.

As heretofore told In The Times, Tucker wandered around In his underwear and hose for hours duringthe rainstorm of Simony night, and his condition was pitiable as lie sat nursing a Tireless stove in the Fourth precinct station. Word was sent to his home. No. Ill street southwest, but his wife arrived without the ludispensatde articles, for it seems that Tncker had sold his old trousers to help pav for the new plum-colored ones. So there he sat, and perhaps wouid still be sitting, had not the heart of Patrolman George Nicholson been moved to do generous act.

It occurred to Nicholson that he had his old winter nnlform at the station. Accordingly the blue trousers were brought out and Tncker tried them on Nicholson Is large and long, and Tucker small and short, so a few yards were rolled up at the foot and a square acre or so taken In at the waist. A dismantled helmet was put-on Tucker and caught him about the ears. To complete the outfit a roomy policeman's coat that almost trailed on the ground aud a pair of shoes were given him. The fellow felt proud of his clothes, and after giving profuse thanks started np the street, followed by a crowd of small boys.

Tucker did not go home Immediately, but walked through the streets peopled by his race and strutted In style, as If he were the newest colored member of the police force. DISTRICT 'WORK TO BE DONE.

PAY DIRT IN EVERY HOLE Ueturalug Winers Tell Stories of Discovery That Turn the of Llsteuers All Purpose to Go Rack Before the Sprlufj Flowers Blossom Gold on American Side. Seattle, July 20. The North American Trading and Transportation steamer Portland will leave Seattle Thursday morning at dawn for the far north St Michael's, at the mouth of the River Yukon, is her destination. All her accommodations, both first-class and steerage, hare been taken, and she will turn away hundreds. Fortwodayspastmeniuallcircumstancea tnd conditions ot life have hung around the wharves here waiting a chance to get passage on one of the steamers sailing north.

So great is the desire to get into the gold fields with the rush that all sorts ot tricks have been resorted to, such as drugging a man and stcaliuB his ticket on the steamer Alki, whose berths were all uold forty-eight hours beroro she sailed. The Portland's trip north will be the last tnls season-that is, it will be the last in which her owners will guarantee to put the passengers into the Klondyke The river freezes in September. From Michael's passengers and their baggage arc transferred to the river steamers or the company. Barges are placed in tow of the steamers, which are all ot light draught, owing to the rapids ot the Vukon. They are loaded with tons or provisions.

The passengers on the Portland are not allowed to take any provisions, as the com-pauy Is engaged in selling supplies to miners. Passengers arc allowed only 1B0 pounds or baggage. The miners who returned on the Portland have been averse to talking, and many of the purported Interviews Trom this place are the work orentcrprislngcorrespondeuts. Ttie heaviest winners on the Klondyke have persistently rcrused to be interviewed, bu they all intend to go back In the spring. They are seirish enough to want to corral the whole diggings.

That the richness or the discoveries has not been exaggerated, the following interview with- William Stanley, or this city, who brought back $110,000 in nuggets, and whose claim is worth at least a million, will prove: "I went to the Yukon a year ago last March, having never tieen there said Mr. Staiih'y. "On the steamer Alki, en route to Juneau and Dyea.l met Charles and George Worden, brothers, and we en tcred into a partnership. The Wordens were formerly from Sacketfa Harbor, N. Y.t where their mother now lives.

"We had been wandering thiough the Yukon district Tor several months, with tittle oi no success, when in the latter part ot September we heard of the Klondyke discoveries. At this time wo were tramping along the Stewart River, bound for Forty Mile. We were at Sixty Mile when the news of the strike first reached us. "We hastened to the Kloudykc, stopping first at the mouth of the stream The day following oui arrival the little steamer Ellis, with 150 wildly excited ii iners, who had also heard the news, arrived. There was a crush and mad run for the new discoveries along Bonanza and Eldorado Creeks.

"We brought up first on Eldorado Creek, locating N'os. 25, 20, 53 and 54. That was about October 1. We prospected 25 and 2G until we satisfied ourselves that we had good pan dirt in each. Then we set about making permanent improvements for the winter, snch as building cabins.

This done weotto work sin king profiwct holes iu different parts of the gulch. We had no no blankets. "Good ay dirt was taken from every hole, and at the end of three months' work we cleaned up $1 12,000 In gptting this mu gold we did not drift over 200 feet altogether up and down the stream, nor did we crosscut the pay streak. "We calculate that these two claims, and also 53 and 54, will run upward of $1,000 to the linear foot, and I figure that we have fully $2,000,000 in sight in the four claims. "There is little or no difference in the 53 and 54 claims on Eldorado Creek.

In fact there are no spotted claims on the reek. It Is a case of all gold yards wide and yards deep. Anywhere you run a hole down you will find the pay streak. "Our will average $33 throughout all of the Eldorado claims. Many go as high as $150, and some still better.

I took out $750 in five pans, and did not plckthepanscithcr. I took the pan a gainst fjftd .4 H.l.w'. 'f coming into this worm ought to be always a joyful occasion. When the prospective mother looks forward with dread and forbod-ing something is wrong; her health is not what it ought to be she has neglected the means which nature and enlightened science provide to make baby's advent free from danger and anxiety and nearly free from pain. Thousands of mothers have -obtained the most wonderful help and sustaining power through their time of waitinrand of trial by nsing Doctor Pierce's Favorite Prescription.

Taken durintr the expectant period, it tones np the nervous system; fives vigor to the geaeral constitution and imparts special power and endurance to the delicate organs concerned in parturition. It shortens confinement; mates delivery absolutely safe and comparatively easy; fortifies the system against relapse and promotes a supply of healthy nourishment for the child. Eor all women who have ay weakness or disease of the organs distinctly feminine, Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription is the most perfect remedy ever devised.

It is the only medicine of its kind invented by a regularly graduated, experienced physician. Mrs. Nancy J. Porter, ofKodney, Mcmooa lowa writes: "I can recommend Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescriptiom as beieg far ahead of any other medicine for a woman raising a family.

San Francisco, July 20. A party or six miners direct rrom the Klondyke reiched here today, having come down by rail from Seattle. They are E.

Myers, B. F. Purcell, .1. 0. Clements, Charles Leonard, Urannan and J.

J. Halterman. They are the advnnce guard of twenty-five or thirty of their comrades who are expected here today. Myeis says ho left Prescott. In the spring of '90.

and has been working claim No. 30, on Eldorado Creek, owned by McDonald Chappie, for one-half the profits. They started in late in the spring after nearly everyone else had quit work and were laughed at by the miners. The day after beginuing work they struck bed-lock, and in the next thirty days took, out $11,000, Mr. Myers says he believes he took from his claim the biggest pan ever washed in the district.

From a shovel half full of dirt he got $800. He says that his pattner and himself In six hours shoveling "cleaned up" three times, and in each "clean up" got Another member of the party. J. 0. Clements is said to have disposed of a vlalm for $50,000, and hits in the s'afc of the Golden West Hotel a nugget valued at $231.

Charles Leonard has been three years In Alaska, one of which has been spent lu the Klondyke country In three aud one-hair toomh actual work lie says he look out $14,000. He Id going back in the spring. B. Purcell, who is about sixty years old, kft his home near St. Louis in April, 1SUG.

He did not reach the Klondyke, however, until January 1, 1897. He declines to state the nmount or gold he has brought with him, but says that he sold a half Interest In claim No. 28, above Discovery, on Bonanza Creek, for noti ncluding the dirt already on dumps. He says there is room for 200,000 men in the mining districts of Alaska without any crowding, but that the cufrering tills winter will be terrible lie characterizes any attempt to reach there this rail as foolhardy. Myers says the pay dirt on the claim he haa been working is a strip more than 150 feet wide and at least a foot in depth.

He suys he has never taken out a pan which gave less than $1. On claim No. 27 In the same district, he says there was a streak eight feet wide nnd five feet deep which went from $17 to $82 a pan. The claim sold for $50,000, and would not buy it today. He telU or a man named Andrew Nelson who made $40,000 for a partner who had given him a grub stake and had never seen the claim.

The men tell harrowing tales or their surrerings, and say that their hanUhip which mut be endured in order to exist cannot bo exaggerated. Several of the party have Just recovered torn scurvy, and all appear to be physicallv demoralized. Last winter, they say, was a mild one, the thermometer only reaching about 70 degrees below zero. During a severe season It frequently goes down Into the 80's. A man should not, say these goid-scekers.

remain in the Klondyke country inore than one season without etmlng back to civilization. By corning out he acquires a new lease ot life, as it were, and goes back better qualified to cope with the hardship? to which he must submit. Millionaires are jcining In the rush to the Klondyke. Henry Eratnober, chier expert for the Exploration Company, or Loudon, and associate or Hamilton Smith and Thomas Wein, hastened to Juneau whert he first heard of the rich and on his report vast capital will be Invented. Many men of means in San Francisco are preparing to leave on two steamships which start within the next two weeks.

As these will not accommodate a tenth of the crowd of treasureseekers. it Is likely that other vessels will be chartered and sent northward. A letter received here by the head or one or the biggest mining corporations in California today says: "Most or the men here are not miners at all. Over hair are who never a mine. There is 'backbone' that runs for a hundred miles through the country, nnd every gulch that heads into it has gold in It.

Nobody has run a tunnel into the 'backbone' yet. "The district laws require the ground to be represented by having a man workingon it In July each year. The seasons are short for sluicing, only about 100 The sunshines day and night during summer. The rest ot the time-the ground Is frozen. 'If a man cannot shovel dirt eight or ten Teet high into the string or sluices on top or the bank and make $50 a day, lie goes orf and leaves the claim." 3fednls of Honor Presented.

HONORED BY THE ALLIANCE Dr. Details tie Affair of His Wedding.

HIS DISTASTE FOR SOCIETY But His Bride; Ik One of the Ryans of TIpperary, lleouwoed for 1'helr Ancient Kingly Lineage, and Ho Will Ieinand That She He Given Social Iteuogultioii. Philadelphia, July 20. For nearly two hours yesterday Dr. Charles E. Cadwalder, whose recent marriage to a domestic in his employ created such a sensation In Philadelphia society, chatted with a reporter, telling many interesting facta about his courtship and now famous marriage.

Two points were brought out prominently in the Interview. One Is that Dr. Cadwalader in the instance of his marriage, as in all the events of his life, had the convict ion that he was acting under Providential appointment. The other is that, having contracted the marriage in the face of family opposition, and with a disregard to that much-dreaded "voice or society," which is heard in many places as emphatically and in much the same strain as at the dinner table of the Veneerings, be proposes to demand for his wife social recognition First, the doctor confirmed a reported Interview, in which he was asked It- he would demand for his wife the same position in society which he had always occupied. His reply was emphatic: "As to my wire, her position is established, and I will regard it as a personal arrront and insult ir any one should question it." "I)o you think your marriage has met with popular "Yes; it has proved what I have always wanted the world to know -that I am one of the people, interested In the people's welfare, and, while Tara-lly is all right in it? way, I am proud or my position with the everyday people, and my course has strengthened me in their esteem.

I shall always remain one or the people and be Identified with popular movements; but at the same time I shall demand for my wife a high social position I am satisfied with my course and proud that I have demonstrated that I am no snob." "When 1 was a medical student," he said, "although only a young man, 1 grew v(ry tired or social ronctions. 1 was Torced to participate in them, as I went around with my sisters, nnd I had to lead germane night arter night. While I made rayseir agreeable as liest I could I was always unconventional 1 forgot little conventionalities and didn't enjoy small talk. I had a great deal ot studying to do, and while I was out In the evening I wished mysetr nt home with my books. "Some twenty-rive years ago I went abroad with one or my eMers for the benefit of her health, and when I returned I saw the opportunity to retire to a more quiet lire and rollow my own Inclinations, and I gladly embraced the opportunity "Now I might have paid attentions to a woman who would enjoy the sort or lire which I relinquished.

But to marry such a woman would mean that I would have to go around with her and think about conventionalities If I wished to make her happy. I don't like Jhat sort of thing. It would be very uv pi easjirt to me. "I would never have married if I vere obliged to leave ray house here and begin new mode of living. I have been living here quietly for yean; and I don't want the machinery disturbed.

In maryring as I did I am able to make the lady whom I married happyarni be happy myself. "I have always been a firm believer," he continued, "In Providential appointment. I have not looked upon It as the religious roan doe? I am not a religious man in the accepted sens? of the term, but I believe tat the God who made me knows how lie wants to use me, ad It has always been my object to follov His direction When I have railed in aarthtng I have taken the failure with eqn iniralty I have thought everything will nuf out all Hght In the end. ir I make a mistake today I will correct It tomorrow "So I have entered into everything thnt I relt needed me I bslleve there has bsen no great movement In this city for years that I have not taken a part In, and In everything I have tried to hold myself con--tantly subject to the Providential appointment." "I should Infer from this," said the interviewer, "that your marriage was contracted with the same feeling with which all the other actions of your life have been "Exactly," was the reply acted as I believe, under Providential appointment As I have done in everything, so most important of all, I have done in this marriage, and I am perfectly satisfied concerning it." Dr.Cadwaladersaldhehadbeenengaged to Miss Ryan for five or six months previous to the marriage She was in his employ about eighteen "She vis quiet and modest," said the doctor, "and very attractive. I was struck by the beautr of her hands.

She has remarkable hands white and shapely, with tapering fingers, and nice, wpII-rounded nails. She Is bright, too. She is well educated, and in every way suitable as a companion ror me. I began to feel that I could not get along without her, and finally asked her to marry me." Dr. Cadwalader went on to tell of the correspondence he had with his wire's parents, and showed the letters, his and theirs, as an earnest or the honorable and kindly relations which through out had been maintained.

He was happy and talked throughout the interview itn animation. Among the communications received by him since his marriage was one signed "One or the Ryans." It assured tho doctor that the coupling ot the union ot a Ryan with a. Cadwalader was an honor to the Cadwalader side.as the Ryans otTlDDerary are well known for their ancient lineage, and In Holm O'iTart's "Irish standard authority on the subject-the genealogy of the Ryans or Tipperary Is traced with honor and credit back to the early kings or Ireland, and was classed with all that is noble and good in Irish history.

No- 2, yesterdav afternoon: In the death of Ileury Wise Garnett the bar ot the District of Columbia has suffered a serious lob.

It is the more keenly felt because it Is untimely. In the due courtteor nature many more years or userul ana honorable activity seemed to lie borore him.

He married after he had been buta few yeart in active practice Thus he ass imed at the threshold of his career all ot those duties which society imposes upon tluse wbowe energy.

Professionally, he wan always equal to any demand that wa. made upon him. In ability, among the first. In courage, never failing: in rertless activity, unceasing; pure in bla personal life, lie was the embodiment of those qualities which are at once the requirement and the honorable characteristic of the advocate In private life he was, as might have been expected from bis conduct in public, a dutiful son, a devoted husliar.d, a tender rather, a generous and loyal friend, and a good citizen He manfully old bis part among life's workers. He has gone to hU well-earned ret with his task Tuny, freely and gladly done.

The Count Insists that nobody's demand for reparation for the insult precedes his It is stated that the Duke of Aosta, another nephew of the Xing, is burning to avenge Ms countrymen's honor. Gen.

Those few who did shout Cabbldge, co'n and Irish pertaties" were not members of the Hucksters Protective but independent Arab3. It is understood that the members of that organization were requested to refrain from making outcries until the tea case, now pending, Is decided. In order to dispose of their vegetables and fruita the hucksters today rang doorbells or rapped loudly at baen.ent doom in aU sections of the city Many complaints were made to the police about this promiscuous yanking of Leila and hammeriug oa doors, but the officers informed the complainants hat they were powerless to act- An enterprising young man In Jforth-eaat Washington printed a number of small placards, Inscribed: "Jfo Hucksters and covered tbera wlti thin sheets of isinglass. He sold a number ot them to housekeepers, who posted them on their doors. One of the oldest hucksters in the District sold to a Times reporter today: "Thew are hundreds of men and boys In this city who depend upon this business for a living for themselves and families, and If the police prohibit us from shooting our wares In a moderate tone of voice, we shall be compelled In self-defense and to earn a livelihood, to ring bells, knock at doors, and thus keep 'the Inmates of the honiK busy.

Of course, it is a nuisance, but what are we to do? To proceed through the streets silently with a load of stuff would mean to let the vegetables rot oa our hands.
