INSPECTING L UMPY JA W. Secretary Foster in Chicago to Carry Oat Government Experiments. Chicago, July 28. Secretary .Rusk is in the city in connection with an experiment he is preparing to try on a large scale in the treatment of the disease known as lumpy jaw. It has recently been treated success-fully by the administration internally of iodide of potassium. One of the in-spectors of the bureau of animal in-dustry . recently made a successful experiment and the secretary expects to have the treatment tested on 200 head of cattle affected with lumpy jaw to settle the question as to the value of the remedy. It is given in doses of one to three drachms, dissolved in a pint of water. It is best ad-ministered before feeding and'lhe dose should vary according to the sise and weight of the cattle, 'lhe treatment can be applied without danger by any farmer. The secretary is also interested in ex-tending the microscopic inspec-tion of pork as the demand for inspected pork is continually increasing and it brings about half a cent per pound more in American and British markets than uninspected. The packing seasons begins in October and the secretary desires to have his force in condition to inspect a much larger number of carcasses than last sea-son. The markets of Denmark, Germany, Austria, France, Spain and Italy have been opened to inspected pork during the past year and it requires a large quantity to supply them. It is estimated that the farm-ers of the country will receive I cent per pound more for hogs marketed this year that if there were no inspection. The secre-tary is greatly encouraged by the marked success which has attended inspection. VOMITING, MOLTON LAVA. Mount Aetna Again in a State of .Erup-tion. THE SKY SHROUDED IN DARKNESS. Subterranean Rumblings Add to the Ter-ror Streams of Lava Flowing Down the Mountain Sides Foreign. Catania, July 28. The eruption of Mt .'Etna again is very violent. For hours great masses of rock have been thrown high into the air above the mountain top; im-mense volumes of smoke shroud the sky and darken the sun. Last n:ght was a veritable night of terror. The heavens were hid by clouds of smoke, which shone with myriads of sparks, while ever and anon the inky blackness was lit up by masses of molten fire making a picture of terrific grandeur. Subterranean rumblings caused the win-dows of the neighborhood to rattle and walls of houses to tremble, while the earth seemed to gripe and struggle like a huge monster in the the throes of acute cramps. The natives are wild from fright. Immense streams of lava are flowing down the moun-tain sides which add to their terror. GREAT SOCIALIST SCHEME. Negotiating with Paraguay for a Site for a Socialistic Colony. Paris, July 23. A party of socialists in this city are endeavoring to organize a so-cialist colony on the lines of Fourier's "Phalaastenum", or farm. The prime movers in the affair are Messrs. Roldes, Briois and Cambier. The two first named are young men of comfortable middle class families, who have joined the socialistic movement from conviction. M. Cambier is a self-educat- workingman who has long been a follower of Karl Marx. They intend to enter into negotiations with the govern-ment of Paraguay for a 6trip of land smaller than that on which Paris is built, and should they be successful they will embark for South America at the head of a band of 4000 colon-ists, male and female the number of women being proportioned to that of the men "so as to avoid crimes of passion," ac-cording to the terms of the prospectus. But the intending emigrants have no funds, and in order to pay their passage out and buy land and machinery they need at least $200,-00- 0. They therefore make an eleemosynary appeal to all philanthropists and political economists, as well as to their rich socialist friends, promising to found a democracy which shall eclipse all past, present and future models of the kind. Everybody will have to work chiefly at agriculture profits will be shared, and both citizens and citizen-esse- s will meet once a month to discuss the affairs of the little commonwealth. GREAT SANGIR ISLAND ERUPTION. Thousands Killed by Masses of Flying Stone. Amsterdam, July 28. The Hanse Elsbad publishes letters from Celebes giving details of the recent eruption on Great Sangir island. The eruption commenced at 6 p. m. unheraided by the slightest seismic warn-ing. Immense volumes of flame and smoke and masses of stone suddenly burst from the volcano. Stones fell all over the island, tilling hundreds of natives who were busy in the fields. Those who succeeded in reaching the supposed shelter of their homes found no refuge, in many cases hav-in- g been crushed beneath the weight of falling stones and the roofs having collapsed under the weight of ashes, burning the in-mates. Streams of lava flowed with frightful rapidity down the slopes of the mountains. It is estimated that over 1000 persons per-ished in the slopes of the mountain and many hundred more in the lowlands, but the exact loss of life is not yet known. The Island is now threatened with a famine, acres having been destroyed. In many parts of the island wells have become dry. The Dutch authorities are doing the best they can to alleviate the distress. Norwegian Town Burned. Christiana, July 28. The greater part of the town of Larpsborg, Norway, was burned today. Loss half a million kroner. Rebels In Sight of Tangier. Tangier, July 28. Twelve thousand rebels are encamped in sight of the citv. The sultan is extremely unwilling to fight. Deaths from Cholera. St. Petersbi-rg-, July 28. Official reports for July 23 to 25 show 2583 new cases and 1465 deaths in the cholera infected districts. The Goodwood Cup. London, July 28. The Goodwood cup was won by Martagon; Blue won second; Colorado third. CONGRESS TO ADJOURN MAYBE. Today Again Characterized by Filibust-ering and Quibbles. Washington, July 28. The house adopted the joint resolution for adjourn-ment on 8atiirday at 2 p. m. The speaker then declared the next thing in order to be the motion made by Bingham yesterday to table the motion to reconsider the motion by which $5,000,000 appropria-tion for the World's fair should be included in the sundry civil bill. Opponents to the appropriation at once began filibustering with motions to adjourn, to adjourn till Sat-urday, to adjourn till Monday, etc. The republicans decided to let the tillibustering and wings of the demo-cratic party fight it out and on call of the house declined to vote, so a call was ordered by a small and close vote of 31 to 29. The call showed a quorum, but it disap-peared again on a vote on the motion to ad-journ till Monday. Bingham has offered for reference to the committee on rules a resolution to cut off filibustering. It provides that tomorrow, immedidately after this resolution, a vote shall be at once taken on his motion to lay on the table the motion to reconsider the vote by which the house agreed to the World's fair appropriation. It is not believed the senate will pass the joint resolution for adjournment on Saturday until the house has acted on the World's fair matter. SENATE. The senate bill making eight hours a day's work on public works in the United States and in the District of Columbia passed the senate today; also one for the purchase of Bancroft's library. The anti-Optio- n bill was then taken up. A motion to refer it to the committee on finance was laid on the table. It is understood that somo senators will refuse to vote on the anti-optio- n bill to break the quorum. Debate on the bill was re-sumed.

So Decides the Supreme Court in the Michigan Gerrymander. THE PEOPLE'S PARTY IN CHICAGO, The Convention Called to Order at Noon by Chairman Hess Minnesota Re-publicansPolitical Points. LANSiNG,Mich.,July 2S.-T- he supreme court decided-tha- t the bill passed by the last legislative districts, to be unconstitutional, and ordered the sec-retary of state issue notices of eleetion in accordance to the act of 1SSI. TWENTY TIMES ONE THOUSAND. Chairman Hess, of the People's Party, says that Number of Signatures Can be Had. Chicago, July 28. The county congress-ional and legislative convention of the peo-ple's party was called to order at noon to-day. Chairman Hess of the state central committee reported that arrangements had been completed for circulating the nominat-ing petitions, and that as soon as the candi-dates were named the petitions would be scat-tered throughout the state. Some of the enemies of the third party movement have claimed that they would find it impossible to secure the 1000 signatures to their petitions and that, failing in this, the names of their candidates would not be printed on the offi-cial ballot. Mr. Hesa says, however, that they will not only procure 1000 signatures required by the new law, but will procure twenty times that number iu order to show the doubtful ones that a vote cast for the third party candidates will not necessarily be thrown away. In fact, Daniel Gleason, who is likely to be nominated for congress in the Second dis-trict, could undoubtedly poll a heavy vote, as he has already demonstrated his popular-ity by the strong canvass he made against Frank Lawler in the same district some years ago. Upon that occasion Lawler went to Washington with a majority of only six-teen votes behind him, and it is claimed that Gleason can make a stronger campaign this time than he did before. Besides standing an excellent 6how for sending their men to congress from the Second district, there is a possibility that the third party men may join their forces in the Fourth and sup-port Jonathan B. Taylor, in which case the' would be almost sure of electing their men. This, of course, is the way tlie peo-ple's party men themselves are talking. Outsiders are not betting on them heavily, but whether thuy land their meu in Spring-field and Washington or not the campaign is likely to demonstrate that the new move-ment is flourishing in the urban districts as well as among the farmers, and for this rea-son the campaign will be pushed actively for the sake of making a formal record of the party's strength. A full list of speakers has been selected, and funds are not lacking to stump the state thoroughly, and if talk can win the game the people's party intends to be in it with its older brethren. SHE IS A DIPSOMANIAC. That Is What the Doctors Say of Mrs. Harvey. DRUNKARDS OF VARIOUS KINDS. Pre-Nat- al Influences and Intemperance Orders Made by Judge flartch Judg-ments Entered New Suits Com-mencedCourt Notes. The trial of the Harvey divorce case was resumed in Judge Anderson's court this morning, the usual number of spectators being present. J. K. Gillespie was. the first witness called by the defense, and he simply testified as to the value of certain real estate owned by the plaintiff. Dr. Arthur I. Groves, the physician in charge of the Keeley institute, was then called, and he gave some interesting testi-mony in regard to the alcoholic habit. As-suming that the defendant's mother was ad-dicted to the use of liquor some months prior to Mrs. Harvey's birth, he would con-clude, taking other tacts into consideration, that Mrs. Harvey's appetite for liquor was hereditary and was simply a disease. In fact the drinking habit, whether hereditary or acquired, 'was a disease, and when it was acquired, it could not be controlled. He was satisfied that the case under consideration was dipsomania. If the father and mother of Mrs. Harvey were not addicted to drink he would say that the habit with Mrs. Har-vey was acquired. Pre natal Influences were discussed at considerable length, and the doctor stated that the habit might be trans-mitted to a child even by a moderate drinker. This might be true in the case of a parent who did not drink to the extent that his own health was in any way affected thereby. Dipsomania was a purely mental disease. He would expect to see the disease progress in a dipsoma-niac. Dr. Foutz was called by Judge Powers, and he testified that depsomania .was a species of insanity. In the case of an eppe-lepti- c, the disease would probably create a desire for drink and indulgence in stimu-lants would aggravate the disease. Dr. Foster was next called to testify as an expert on depsomania and nervous diseases, and like the preceding witnesses he placed Mrs. Harvey in the ranks of the dipso-maniacs. This afternoon Mrs. Harvey was recalled and she testified in regard to her husband's general treatment of her. Mr. Harvey then took the stand and when he had finished, the charge of cruel treat-ment made by his wife, took quite a differ-ent aspect. The trial is still on as The Times goes to press. Another Divorce Suit. Mary Ann Pugh wishes to dissolve the matrimonial partnership heretofore existing between herself and Edward Pugh, and to that end ehe this afternoon brought suit for divorce in the Third District court. The parties were married in Cain-vill- e, Pottowattamie county, Iowa, in lSi, and the plaintiff alges that away back in 1S72 the defendant, disregarding the solemnity of his marriage vow, wilfully and without cause deserted and abandoned her. He is the owner of a valuable lot in the Ten Acre p at, big field survey, and 6he asks for a decree of divorce, with a half interest in the property during her natural life as mony. POLICE COURT. Louis Bamberger Not Guilty Other Case Tried. Louis Bamberger who was arrested by Officer Shannon for fast driving in Liberty-par-was tried by Justice Kesler this morn-ing and discharged. It was a humorous aflair throughout. The defendant in exten-uation of his act set up that his steed was not capable of going fast enough to endan-ger the safety of any oue and proved it, too. Al Graham was tried for using abusive language toward G. W. Cleveland. He. pleaded not guilty, but the evidence didn't warrant discharging him and he waa lined $5. James Thompson pleaded guilty to va-grancy and was fined 10. John Taylor kept a dog w ithout a licensa and Galleazzi took him up. Taylor secured, his dog and Galeazzi had him arrested. Ha paid the tax and was dismissed. The Arrest of Cross. Cripple Creek, Colo., July 28. W. P. Sawyer vigorously denies the allegation that he caused the arrest of J. H. Cross on the charge of being implicated in the Moffatt robbery for the purpose of inducing him to reveal where he had cached the $187,000 in bullion secured by the daring crime. Saw-yer claims that Cross does not know where the money is pocketed, but is confident that he is the man who robbed Moffatt. IN RAILWAY CIRCLES. Heavy Travel to Salt Lake Expected Dur-ing August. It is believed that after the adjournment of the conclave at Denver next month, there will be quite a rush of Sir Knights to Zion. Letters have been received from many east-ern cities stating that the delegates expect to extend their excursion to Salt Lake. Several midsummer excursion parties will be passing through to the coast et about the same time, and the railroad people are ex-pecting very heavy business to Salt Lake in August. OVER THE MIDLAND TO DENVER. Contracts Made With Thirty Commander-ie- s Mr. Baker's Return. M. C. Baker, traveling passenger agent of the Midland, has returned from the east where he made contracts with thirty es for excursions over this road. Some will go as far as Salt Lake, and still others on to the Pacific coast. He says great crowds are coming and expects that the conclave will bring 100,000 strangers to Denver. "It will not be so difficult to room and sleep this great crowd as it will be to feed them," said Mr. Baker, "and Denver had better be looking out for that phase of the question. When you come to feeding 100,-00- 0 people in addition to our own popula-tion, it will take a larger quantity of food than many realize. It will be the greatest and biggest crowd this city ever saw." C. C. Smith, assistant tr General Manager Dodge of the Rio Grande Western, 6ays they will have a large number of excursions over their line to Salt Lake, some of which will go on to the Pacific coast. Tottering to Tlielr Fall. The opinion is growing among railroad men that traffic associations are a failure, and the associations seem to be tottering to their fail. The reai reason for the failure is that the creators will not keep faith with each other. Judge Springer, of the Santa Fe, has devoted much thought to the question upon a practical scale, and as a result of his study has submitted to the railroad public his opinion that an agree-ment on the following principles would be entirely consistent with state and federal legislation and perfectly practical: 1. Common carriers are entitled to reason-able compensation for their services. The highest courts in the land have so held. 2. Common carriers have a right to agree among themselves that they will not agree to accept less than the compensation to which they are legally entitled for their ser-vices. 3. Having the right thus to agree, they have the further right to insure the ob-servance of that agreement by providing that one of them who shall not keep his agreement shall pay the others all damages which they suffer by such failure. 4. They have the further right to liquidate and fix damages eo to be paid by agreeing that one who secures any competitive traffic in viola-tion of its agreement shall pay to the others damaged thereby an amount of money equal to a reasonable compensation for the trans- - portation of traffic so secured. 5. In order to arrive at what n a reasonable compensa-tion, a rate committee consisting of a repre-sentative from each party to the agreement may be authorized to determine prima facie what is reasonable compensation for trans-porting any particutar traffic, and any parly varying from the rates thus deter-mined does so at the peril of being en-abled to overturn the prima facie rule by showing that a less rate than that so deter-mined to be reasonable is a reasonable com-pensation. This is not a pool and does away with the objection that a corporation cannot abdicate its most Important function of rate making by transferring the power abso-lutely and conclusively to a rate committee. In other words, that action of the committee in determining what is a reasonable rate is simply a prima facie rule of evidence and has the same effect as like action by railroad commissioners in some of the states, notably in Iowa. 6. In such an agreement provi-sion should be made for prohibiting under-billin- g, false weight and other devices for departing from published tariffs and dam-ages provided to be paid for violating such stipulations. - 7. Such a plan would not be in conflict with any provision, state or fed-eral, prohibiting trusts, even if there were such applicable to common carrierd, nor would it be contrary to the Booling statutes of state and federal government. The Kale War. The Santa Fe stands by its $13 rate from Chicago to Denver for the conclave and has not yet taken the trouble to try ana justify its action to the other roads. The Sauta Fe is accused of taking eastern contracts on the basis of the $12 rate, but the officers of the road deny this and declare that the rate will not go into effect until August 3d. The reduction is not securing any extra business for the roads with the other cut hanging back and it is very proba-ble that as soon as the other roads see that the cut must be made they will put it into effect, and it is very probable that $13 tick-ets will be sold in Chicago before the 3d. This would be a decided advantage to every-one, as it would give the roads more time to handle the great crowd that the cheap rate would take to Colorado. . m . Fatal Boiler Explosion. Gatlord, Mich.. July 28. A boiler in the shingie mill on Otsego lake exploded this morning, killing five men and fatally injur-ing another, and demolishing the mill. ASSASSINATED BY A CUSTOMER. A Speculator Loses His Reason and Mur-ders a Stock Broker. Philadelpaia, July 28. Stock gambling brought about a tragedy yesterday as a re-sult of which Charles II. Page, a well known broker, lies dead at his home, assassinated by a customer, Ronald Kennedy, who closed his own account with the same weapon that ended the broker's career. No one witnessed the tragedy. A cierk named Hallowell was just leaving Mr. Page alone in the office when Kennedy came in.' Knowing Kennedy as a former customer, Hallowell paid no at-tention and went out. He had not gone but a few paces when he heard two shots, and rushed back just in time to see Page gasp his last breath. He had been shot in the back while trying to escape. In the front of the office Kennedy was found lying on his face dead, with a bullet in his brain. Clerk Hallowell says it is two years since Kennedy began dealing principally in Atch-ison. For some time his ventures were suc-cessful and he made about $20,000. Then the tide turned and he lost all he made in a short time. Hallowell claimed only doubts and sold, according to Kennedy's orders and that Charles H. Page always kept account. He generally had trouble making Kennedy understand them, even when they were in his favor. Hallowell says Kennedy was re-garded as a crank of a harmless variety. Kennedy had boarded on North Eleventh street for the past five years with a Miss Austen. She says he was a man about 65 years old and told her he came from New Orleans, where he was engaged in the dry goods business during the wan A search of his effects told nothing. --- . His Wife Ran Away. A man named Richmond rushed up to City Attorney Coad at 2:30 today and breath, lessly informed him that his wife and. another man were going away on the train and he wanted them arrested. He said tho other man's name was Jones and that they had been running together for a long time. Coad sent him to Attorney Eichnor for a warrant. A New York Banker Suicides. New York, July 28. George K. Sistace, a banker, committed suicide by shooting this morning in the rooms of the Manhattan club. GAS AT G RANTS VILLE. An Eastern Company Will Put Down s) Well There. There are various rumors prevailing re garding the formation of the Natural Gas company, which is composed of eastern men who will bore for gas In the neighborhood of Grantsville, where if is said the indica tions for striking gas are very promising. An expert from Ohio haa been in Grants-ville for some time and has looked the ground over very thoroughly with the result that negotiations for the purchase of a tract of land near the place have been completed, the terms of the sale being that the former owner of the property is to control a certain amount of stock in the event that tho ven-ture proves a success. . Who the parties are The Times' informant could not state, but he assured the reporter that everything was all straight and that some developments could bo looked for soon. Aa BEER DRINKING. Brewery Workmen Thrive on Fifty Glasses a Day. Early last winter the employes of the New York breweries made an agreement with the bosses which allowed them to drink all the beer they wanted while at work. In every brewery in the city there is now a bar and a bartender. The lat-ter does nothing but draw beer for the workmen. No charge is made, and the men can get beer in as large quantities and as frequently as they wish. Some time ago the Globe-Dt-mocr- published a dispatch from a western city which said that a man. em-ployed in a brewery there consumed on an average 100 glasses of beer daily. A Globe-Denvx-r-at con espondent called on the secre-tary of the Brewers' association, on East Fifteenth street, the other day, and learned from him some facts about beer-drinkin- g in the local breweries. All the breweries keep records of the amount of beer consumed by their employes, and subject the men to frequent medical ex-aminations for the purpose of learning what effect beer has upon their systems. Every year a report is made out about such em-ployes, which contains this information: His age, length of time employed in brew-eries, height, weight, circumference of chest, difference in forced inspiration and expiration, average daily consumption of beer, general state of health, condition of liver, kidneys and heart. According to a number of recent reports, there are few men employed in the local breweries who average more than sixty glasses of beer during the working hours of a day. That does not, however, preclude the possibility of their drinking 100 durin-th-entire day. If they sleep eight hours, they will have- - six hours in which to boost their nvtrm PD .-- haps it is fair to presume that the man who drinks 6ix glasses of beer an hour while working will drink a good deal more when idle. If he maintains his average it will place 90 glasses to his credit in a'day. A few men are reported as drinking 75 glasses daily during working hours, and a large number credited with 50 and 60. The average, however, seems to below 40, and some are put down as having averaged only five. According to the report of physicians em-ployed by the Brewei s' Benevolent Bureau, which looks after sick and disabled workmen and the families of deceased workmen, this large consumption of beer has no deleterious effects. Among 1000 workmen in one dist-rict included in the operations of the bureau the death rate was only seven a year during five years, and the death of only one was due to alcoholism. Most of them are big and strong, and the tabulated reports show that nearly all can lift more than 400 pounds. The brewery physicians say that the brew-ery workmen who average more than twenty-fiv- e glasses of beer a day are in bet-ter health than any other class of working-me- n in the community.

Boise Citt, Ida., July 23. The tweatj.'.. five union miners now held prisoners In this city will be held under nine separate counts in the United States court. It is optional with Judge Beatty as to the time of punish-ment and also whether the miners shall be admitted to bail, and as the offenses are re-garded as serious in the eyes of the court, it is likely to go hard with them. Martial law will be continued in Shoshone county until August 1st. A letter was sent to President Harrison strongly urging that a small camp of regular soldiers be established at some point in the Coeur d'Alenes until January 1, 1893, at least. Governor Willey says the question of reconstructing Shoshone county officially is the next serious difficul-ty to overcome. He will appoint an entire new set of county officers, but the question is who to appoint. The trouble is by no means ended and the wisest management is necessary to properly adjust matters. The companies of Idaho militia now in the north will be held there a month longer. THE NORWEGIAN LAWYER. He Appears to Have the Pull for the Nom-ination for Governor. St. Pacl, Minn., July 28. The republican state convention was called to order shortly after noon today by chairman J. P. Heathole of the state central committee. The guber-natorial nomination is, of course, attracting most attention. The supporters of Knute Nelson, the Norwegian lawyer who repre-sented the Fifth district in congress for sev-eral terms, claim that he has four hundred, and possibly four hundred and twenty of the seven hundred and twelve delegates who constitute the convention. The committee on resolutions will report a platform con-taining a county option plank, and it is just this that has aroused the indignation of the Scandinavian prohibitionists. A joint committee representing the Scandinavian temperance societies in Minneapolis at a meeting over a month ago, called for the purpose of arranging a Fourth of July demonstration, passed a resolution1 to the effect that in view of the fact that a number of republican politicians,, mostly Scandinavians, have taken steps toward se-curing the incorporation of a county option plank in the platform to be adopted by the republican state convention, for the express purpose of preventing thousands of Scandi-navian voters from voting the prohibition ticket, and in view of the fact that the re-publican party, least of all parties, deserves the support of the ''plain people" of Amer-ica, we hereby resolve to make our Fourth oi July ceieDranon a straight miru party prohibition demonstration. The republi-cans, however, do not seem dismayed at this defection on the part of their Scandinavian allies, and say that with Knute Nelson at the head of the ticket they can reclaim ,the larger part of the disaffected element. Governor MoKlnley After New Laurels. Chicago, July 28. Governor McKinley arrived here today on his way to Madison, Wis., where he is to take part in the joint national debate tomorrow afternoon. The name of his opponent is not known here. Silver Convention in Denver. Denver, July 28. The silver convention this morning adjourned in a body to join the people's party. In a joint session they will nominate a ticket this afternoon. Political Notes. The California republicans have adjourned. W. A. McCorkle was nominated at 1 ' o'clock this morning by the West Virginia democrats for governor. Chairman Harrity announced No. 139 Fifth avenue as selected for the headquar-ters of the national democratic committee. The new silver party of Colorado, essen-tially a child of Senator Teller's creation, has repudiated Teller, because of his friend-liness to Harrison and enmity to silver. While Mrs. Lease was addressing the con-vention in Denver last night she spoke of silver contributions to carry on the cam-paign. A miner in the gallery threw $100 in silver on the 6tage. The crowd lost its senses and silver hailed at the speaker's feet. A half barrel of coin was picked up. KELtErS CASE CONTINUED. It Goes Over Until Tuesday Next at Two OXlock. In the police court this afternoon Attorney Straup, on behalf of Judge Powers, asked for a continuance of the Kelley case on the grounds that Judge Powers was engaged in the Harvey divorce case. Justice Kesler consulted with the city at-torney who announced that he would not consent to a continuance unless the defend-ant would consent to take the deposition of one of the witnesses. Mr. Lumpkin, who wanted to go to Idaho tomorrow. Mr. Straup argued that he did not know the facts of the case and that Mr. Kelly had the right to the choice of counsel. The court decided that it was a question as to whether the defendantshould be forced to a trial without his counsel and suggested 5 o'clock to examine Lumpkin. Mr. Slraup and Mr. Coad then agreed up-on 5 o'clock as the time. Mr. Reilley made a little statement to the effect he had a word to say. On his way to the police station Captaiu Donovan and he had a conversation in which he. Rcillev. said. "We have tot a case against you," t which Donovan re-plied "We 11, I'll bet you that you have to eppeal it." This statement caused Mr. Coad to ask Reilley if he was an attorney and Captain Donovan to remark that "that statement had nothing to do with the case." "It would make no difference with the court what was said," remarked Justice Kes-ler, and then the case was set for Tuesday at 3 o'clock. A Damage Suit Against the City. L.

LAYING THE FIRST CABLE. Protected with Half an Inch of Gutts Percha and Sunk with Lead. In modern cables the core is always pro--j tected first by a serving of hemp or jute' and then by an outer sheath of . soft, steel wires, which are relied on to fur-- ( nish the mechanical strength which tha cable must have In order that i& may stand the pulling about which it reu ccives in laying and repairing. But the .SVaf-- urday Review says that in that pioneertrral, there was no idea of a protecting sheath th naked core was to be laid in the channel to( form the first telegraph between Englandrztnd France. There was but a single wire of ep-- per inside (nowadays there is always Jr strand of several wires twisted together! and this was covered with gutta percha 6cv thickly as to bring the diameter to hali ajj inch. The covered wire was wound on an great reel on the deck of a steam tug, trai Dover harbor, and after a numbert oft preliminary trips the line waa laUf on the 23d of August, 1S50. Lead sinkers were attached at every hundred jardV to carry the cable to ttw bottom, for, . in tbei absence of any heavy sheathing, its speci&c gravity scarcely exceeded tliat of sea watelj The attempt was at once made to open ocina'-- , munication, but though signals teemed tal pass, nothing could be made of them, and i Mr. Smith records that the operators at-se-end were regretfully forced to the coiictuv' sion that those at the other end babeoo.! lunching, not wisely, but too welL 25erV day matters were worse; no signals wool pass at all. The cable was broken, and ended this first attempt at submarine teieU graphy. The signals of the first day had beeaui intelligible, not because of any breach f continuity on the part of the cable, or f$CH ure in temperance on the part of Its guard ians, but simply in consequence of electros., tatic induction, the influence of which, iij retarding the electrics pulses, was not then understood. It was to overcome the diffi-culty caused by induction that Sir William Thomson, eight years later, invested hj mirror galvanometer, thereby making it practicable to speak at a reasonable pace-eve-through lines aa long as the thaft cross the Atlantic. - .

It is Instituted Last Night Amid Great Eclat. The P.O.S. of A. of Park City had a gala day yesterdayjand last night. National President Clarence F. Huth ar-rived in the Park on AVednesday, and was yesterday initiated into the mysteries of sil-ver mining. When Huth came here he was a mono-metalis- t, but now he is an ardent silver man, having been convinced that sil-ver is the stuff, lie was shown through the Ontario and the Daly, and took a spin on the Crescent tramway. Last night the Patriotic Guard C.O.B., First regiment, was instituted by Adjutant-Gener- al C. M. Jackson.

Revenue Agent Spurrier has returned from the neigh-borhood of Cookville. He said before he left there that he learned that Frank Sloane, who killed United States Storekeeper Be-llinger, was fortified at his house, together with twenty or twenty-fiv- e men, all armed. The family has been sent away. No further attempts were made to arrest Sloane, and the United States marshal is reticent as to the plan of procedure. Sloane is said to have the whole country terrified. A battle is looked for when an attempt is made to ar-rest them. - - i . Daring Brigands. Morelea, Mexico, July 28. For weeks daring bands of brigands have terrorized this section and made it dangerous and uncom-fortable to honest citizens and travelers. The latest outrage committed by these out-laws is reported from Puerperos, this state. A band of brigands, under the leadership of Cecilio Salino, made a raid on that town yes-terday at mid-da- y. While engaged in their work they were attacked by a detachment of the Eighth Federal regiment. A desperate battle ensued, the bandits standing their ground. Four of the latter were killed, while one of the soldiers received a death wound. No captures were made. This same band made a raid on Puerperos only a few days ago. The Tug Chicago Sunk. Chicago, July 28. The tug Chicago, was run into by the steamer City of Concord on Hyde Park yesterday and sank almost in-stantly. Steward Oscar Page and Deckhand William Kopfer, who were asleep below the deck, went to the bottom with the d craft. THE HOMESTEAD ROW. A Citizen of Pennsylvania Tells Something of the Trouble. James B. Talbert of Homestead, Pa., was in the city this forenoon on his way to Port-land, Oregon, and a Times man was so for-tunate as to meet him. Mr. Talbert says that the press dispatches of the country have greatly exagger-ated reports from Homestead as re-gards the battle and the subse-quent developments. The scene on the day the Pinkertons arrived was one long to be remembered, but the alleged clubbing of the Chicago men was not as bad as painted. The cooler of the striking men protected the Pinkcrton men from violence, and while some few of them were bruised up, the long lists telegraphed over the country were by far too great. Mr. Talbert says the schedule of wages paid by the Carnegie company was misleading, and that the common la-borers did not get any show whatever in the poblished reports. As a matter of fact the men doing the common work around the mill get about $1.10 per day on an av-erage. O'Donnell, Mr- - Talbert says, will doubt-less be acquitted of the charge of murder. He believes that O'Donnell did all he could to allay the riot but a man talking to the men on that day was wast-ing words until after the excite-citeme- nt had died out. He blames the sheriff for neglect of duty and says had he selected deputies from among citizens of Horaestead who were not workers in the mill, instead of asking the Pinkerton agency for them, all trouble would have been averted. As to the probable outcome of the matter he says Carnegie will be compelled to yield. It may not come for a year but he will eventually have to surrender. The employes are all old meu and understand their business, while the people who are taking their places are green and do not know what they are doing half the time. Keeping them means inferior work, and Carnegie cannot afford to send such out. He laughed at the idea of the McKinley law having any effect in producing the re-sult. Thought He Was a Paul Pry. Chbcaoo, July 28. A. A. Mudge, a New York traveling salesman, and his wife were so warm when they landed in Chicago last night that they decided to take a swim in the North Side natatorium. It was ladies' day and Mudge was barred out. While his wife disrobed he took charge of her dia-monds. Professor Meyer, proprietor of the establishment, spied Mudge and fell oa him thinking he was a Paul Pry. In the scuffle diamond brooch was lost, and Mudge had Meyer arrested. A Citizen's Mass Meeting.

Robinson, member of the appellate court of Indiana, is dying from sunstroke. He was lieutenant-colone- l of the Seventy-fift- h Indiana regiment, and a member of the Forty-fourt- h and Forty-fift- h congress. How "Pinkertonism" Originated. St. Paul Pioneer-Fss- . The Pinkerton force Tas created to meet just such emergencies as arose at the Carne-gie works. That agency first began to furn-ish companies of armed guards when the employers of labor were compelled to ask for them, in order that their property might be saved from destruction at the hands of former employes. Before that time came thousands and million dollars worth of valuable property had van-ished before the revengeful 6triker. Every- where the succession of events was the same. Employes either demanded an increase of wages or refused to accept a decrease. They struck; and then their first act in many cases '.was to attack the property of their former employers, and to make murderous assaults upon the persons of any men offering to take their places. This is not tho story of an isolated case. It is the story of scores upon scores of strikes ever since the organization of labor became general. In a great multi-tude of cases private property was not safe from the striker, nor could thn wnrlinir man who preferred to remain outside of the unions enjoy safety of life or limb. Every great strike has been accompanied by violence on the part of men who had volun-tarily left the employ of those whose prop-erty they sought to ruin. And nearly al-ways the public authorities either refused to protect the property and person of those assaulted or came to their "assistance with such feebleness as to be a mark for the mer-riment of the riotous strikers. This, then, was the choice offered to every employer of labor when labor became dis-satisfied and chose to cease. Either he could yield to any demands, however un- - j reasonable, or ho could go out of business altogether, or he could see his property wrecked and burned by vengeful hands be-fore his very eyes without adequate protec-tion from the proper authorities. It was only when the choice had been made num-berless times that capital sought, in self-defens-the assistance of the Piukerton force. Hello! Hello! Hello! Indianapolis, July 28.

The report says the plan of distribution in Russia was entirely satisfactory. TOO CLOSE TO MURDER. Gradual Tightening of the Coils Around the Homestead Strike Leaders. Pittsburg, July 28. On the hearing of Sylvester Critchlow, one of the Homestead strikers this morning for release on bail, several witnesses swore they saw Critchlow load and lire a gun at the barges. Judge Magee refused to admit him to bail cn the grounds that his acts were too close to murder in the first degree. His attorneys claim that he was not there., Finslay and Pirnock, the suspected anar- - chists who were arrested yesterday were re-leased today, there beipg no evidence against them. The authorities say the anarchists are thoroughly frightened. Frick continues to improve, ueputy sheriffs are scouring Homestead to arrest men against whom warrants are out. Most of them have disappeared. Three anarchists gained admission to the mill some days ago, but were discovered dis-tributing; anarchist literature and driven out. The officers are hunting for them, but they have disappeared. Hugh O'Donnell has gone away, his wife says ou private business. Oil Tank Struck by Lightning. Washington, Pa., July 25.
