Advertising: Il.r stage (iowna and Ketlres Drtlnltely From Ii. Stage. London, March. 11. Miss Mary Anderson (Mrs. Navarro) has created puis stir iu theatrical circles hi're by advertising th sale of all her etag'e dresses, theatrical scenery and stage properties, thus confirming the that it is her intention to retire definitely from the stage. The general' impression prevailed in theatrical and other circles that alter a reasonable period of the enjoyment of wedded life, the fair American actress would return to the stage. This sup-position n. borne out, after her mar-riage by the fact that she did not sell her stnge properties, etc., but now she seems to have taken the last step which severs her forever from tho theatrical world.

The others escaped with less injury. The train, No. .12, had como out of a cut when the rails spread and the tender and two coaches left the track, the latter falling on their sides. For- - a time in-tense excitement existed and nil of the passengers were severely shaken by the accident. As soon as the news of the accident reached Salt Lake a special was started with Dr. J. Bcnt'y and others aboard to assist the injured. The bruised and wounded were given attention and brought to this city and taken to their homes in carriage by the company. The local management of the road is not responsible for tho condition of the line which caused the accident. The public is well aware that tho power to keep the line in safe condition lies with the head of the road at Omaha. . m - THE SUBLIME FORTE.

Constantinople, March 11. United States Minister Solomon Hirsch has de-livered the formal invitation of fbe United States asking Tur-key to be represented at the World's fair to be held in Chicago in 1893. It is believed the Porto will ac-cept but some time must elapse before an oflicial reply will . bo given to the invitation. The Levant Herald publishes a sig-nificant notice to the effect that by the sultan's order a collection is to be aiado of copies of all Turkish books, naga.ineg and all other literary works published since the ascension to the throne of the present sultan, Abul Ha-mi- These worka are to be richly bound and sent to the fair. The porte will also send to Chicago a file of the legal paper D'Jeridi Maliakin.

New Yokk, March 1 1. George Wost-inghous- e was seen at the Windsor hotel and asked the significance, if any, at-tached to his defeat at the election of the union switch and signal company in Pittsburg some time ago. Said Westinirlioiise in re-ply: "N. 'f. Kowand of Pittsburg issued a circular to the stockholders in the corporation asking for proxies which were to voted by cither him or myself. As I was not present at elec-tion Kowand. it appears, cast proxies to elect a board of directors of his own selection. Under the circumstances I do not believe the election was legal. Little Kiver had a dispute. The lie was passed, and inkstands, cuspidors and other articles calculated to do bodily injury llew through the air. No one was injured, but several members were well spattered with ink and tobacco juice. Tho speaker ordered the In place the disturbers under arrest.

O The Fathor of young Anderson Soeki to Eocovcr Damage'. Notes Train the Lobby; 2 It wms a day of disappointment in Qf court circles. Tho people who come and go, according to the character of --4 the attraction, were disappointed. Ia t 1 Judge Anderson's court they had ex- - Q pectcd to see tho methods of Council- - man Pickard's f madness, in the case of m the old Fort block, ventilated. This in . tho first case in which they were disap-- C" pointed. Several ef the troop of legal fj luminaries who are associated with the 4 formidable issue were present, and when the case was called, Judge Dick son, in behalf .of the city, stated that they were ready to proceed. The court cited that information had arrived concerning the illness of Frank llolVman, counsel for Pickard, and that it would be impossible for hiui to put ia appearance at that time. "Then let it go over until 2 o'clock," said Jude Dickson, nnd it went. The spectators who had filled the chamber to MitTocation also went with an assitr-anc- o that they would return this after noon. A number of short orders were made, when a recess was taken until 2 o'clock this afternoon. In Judge Zaue's court the civil dockrt that is generally destitute of any mois-ture whatever, was productive of an unusual amount of tragedy. The call-in- g of the case of John I'obinson vs. the Oregon Short Line railway revived the killing of John Samuel Kobir.son ia December last. Young Samuel; and a number of companions had sought tha railway track for a playgrouud and found a handcar that they immediately proceeded to board. They hail pumped it to the summit of the grada ami when the other side was reached it began to descend with terrific speed. The boys who had undertaken to han-dle it became panic-stricke- n and for the folly of the trip Samuel Robinson gave bis young life. His father, who looked forward to the time when ha could lean upon him with perfect safety, now seeks damages in the sum of $23,000. The case of John White vs. the Union Pacific railway was then called and went to trial before a jury. Court Notes. The criminal calendar will be taken ... up again on Monday.- - - - The commissioners had nothing on during the day but matters of a civil nature. Tho grand jury is still grinding on matters of general interest to law and morality. In the case of McLannar vs. Uainos, before Judge Anderson, tho demurrer was withdrawn and twenty days wera allowed for an answer. The rights of an impecuneous defend-ant to the records at the expense of tha territory will be discussed before Judg Anderson tomorrow morning at 11) ( o'clock. LOOKS LIKE TH- -: F1CHTH WARD.

UlWBRAZIL The Importers of English Goods and the Flour Manufacturers Object to the Reciprocity Treaty, THE NATIONAL CAPITAL NEWS. Matters of Iutarost at Washington Since the Adjournment of Congress Talk With the Brazilian Minister. Washington, March 11. Ever since the when the new United States Brazil-ian treaty was proclaimed simultane-ously in both countries, Brazil's minis-ter has been in constant telegraphic communication with his government. The cablegrams have not been lengthy but they have been emphatic. Some of these cablegrams indicated a very seri-ous condition of affair; hoar serious may be determined from the significant utterance of the minister made yester day. "I received today," said the minister, "an instalment of Brazilian papers con-taining the decree promulgating; the treaty and also presenting at length the views of officials and merchants. One of these papers, the Journal do Com-merci-is filled with expressions con-demnatory of the treaty. The feeling has reached such a de-gree that one congressman predicts that all the merchants of Kin Janeiro will go into liquidation in a few months. This of course is absurd, but it shows what is being asserted. The opposition comes from two flour manufacturers w ho, of course, are not affected by the treaty, and from the importers of Eng-lish goods. TAKIKF OF THE 1'lIILI.Il'INE. The United States consul at the Phil-lipin- e islands has informed the secre-tary of state of recent changes in the customs tariff of those islands, and in-crease of 50 per cent. Tho discharging and consumption duties and the navi-gation tax are abolished, as is also the export duty on tobacco. For tho spe-cial purpose of protecting the Barce-lona manufactures the duties are in-creased on white cotton goods, prints, socks and stockings' underclothing and silk goods and woolen goods. t'NDER THE DIKECT TAX ACT. Assistant Secretary Nettleton has notified claim agents and others inter-ested in claims under the direct tax act, that all payments under that act will be made to the states in trust for tho citizens thereof, from whom they were collected, or their legal represen-tatives, and that claim agents and others will not be allowed to examine the direct tax records of the depart-ment unless authorized by the stotes. OltEKNHALGE MAY BE APPOINTED. A report is in circulation to the effect that ex Congressman Greenhalge will be appointed on the civil service com-mission, it is certain that a change will be made in the board very shortly. Mr. Lyman is the one who in all proba-bility will retire. PROFESSOR WARNER'S NEW OFFICE.

Andrew Miller of Kye, this county, donned a red shirt and started to lead Joseph Moore's bull to the village, Now it is all any bull (n do to behave himself when there is a red shirt around; but this bull being well bred did not begin to take on very seriously until the bright red young man got funny and attempted to ride the bull. The circus is one that pictur-esque Mr. Miller will remember until the day his coflin plate is ordered. By the courage and skill of James Stone his life was saved, and he now knows more, though he isn't as handsome as he was. A READY RESPONSE. The Ca.. or Destitution Promptly Att.ud.d to by th.

Si'itiMii iE' l. 111., March ll.flen-cra- l Palmer wa elected United States senator today on the first ballot to suc-ceed Charles 11 Karwell. ThiMoriiicatiou of the roll cull showed that every repuolican voted for Liud-ley- ; every democrat for Palmer; Moore nnd Cockrell for Palmer, and Taubencck for Stroeter. "On this the 1..4 billot," said Speaker Onifts, "the whole numberof votes cast is ',01; necessary to choice KKI, of w hich John M. Palmer has received 10:1 votes democratic cheers; A. J. Streoter, 1 vote; and Cicero J. Lindlcy. 100 votes; and I hereby declare John M.

When silence had been restored a joint committee of seven notilied Mr. Palmer of his elec-tion. The committee returned with Senator Palmer who w as greeted with great applause. Speaker Crafts intro-duced him and he made a short speech thanking his followers for electing him.

Applaua) The joint assembly then adjourned sine die. When tho voto was in progressing Representative Tanbeneck, the only one of the farmers who did not go to tho democrats, said: "I vote for A. J. Slreeter nominee of the F. M. B. A. party," and dropping into his seat burst iuto tears. That it was sincere sorrow nobody doubted and cheer after cheer from republican side rewarded his loyalty to his party nominee. General John M. Palmer is a n by birth although he has lived in the sucker state ever since he was a boy of 15, removing thither with his parents in 18132. lie soon entered law and politics, at both of Which he was successful. In 1MB he was a delegate to the first republican national convention, for the old general began his career as a republican, changing to a "liberal republican" al the time of fireclay's nom-ination, landing finally plump in tho democratic camp. Since then tho democrats have tried to run him for every big ollice on the calender, iu 1HS0 for the presidency, in 1HSH for governor, and last year for senator by popular vote. The last ollice he has now reached through a bargain with the twoallianeo members of tho legislature, which terminated a tedious fight. Palmer's military career is an honorable one. He served with Fremont and Sherman in the rebellion, commanded the Four teenth army corps and the Department of Kentucky, resigning his commission of major general iu 1W( to pol-itics. In 18tW the republicans elected him governor of Illinois for two terms. Senator Charles B. Farwcll, who is thus replaced after only one term in the senate, is an abler man than many sup-pose. Only eight years tho junior of Palmer, he held several local olliccs in Chicago until finally sent to congress for three terms. He declined renomination for a time until the republicans needed a popular candidate, when he again consented to run in Insi). but declined at the end of that term, lie succeeded General Logan at the laltet's death, and on March 4 returned to his immense mercantile business. t IH'Y WANT Fl'ltVllER DETAILS.

Further details upon the whole question will alsq be asked for and must be received before the chamber of deputies com-mittee will ask credit from the chamber for the representation of France at the fair.

The govern-ment is making arrangements to pro-rogue parliament in July, not with a view of dissolution, but with the inten-tion of reassembling in November for a final session before going lo the coun-try. Mr. Balfour's persistence in pro-ducing his Irish local government bill befure dissolution will probably result in his gratification, but no member of the ministerial party expects that the cabinet seriously intends to pass this measure. It is accepted as merely a means of keeping off an opposition measure. THE ARCHBISHOP'S JUBILEE. The Sllr.r AonlT.rmry of the I'r.lecy of B V.nereuly Dlrlne. Special to the Times. Boston, March 11.

The drouth still prevails. Its etlects are most severely felt in the department of Santiago de Cuba. The small rivers are dried up and heavy losses in cattle are sustained, owing to the fact that it is impossible for the animals to get either food or water. The drought will materially interfere with the sugar crop, the yield of cane being much reduced through a lack of rain. The loss of cattle, too, will affect the crop, oxen for labor iu the fields being very scarce. THE COLORED MIDGET DEAD. He lFai Nuffoeiitod or :. Mott Froli-ab'- y by Ao idem. Nkw Yokk, March 11.

RUSSIA'S STRATECIC RAILROADS- - The Muscovite Milking Kapid Strides In That Direction. Beki.ix, March 11. Though far be-hind Germany in the matter of strategic railroads, Ktissia is making a slow but continuous advance in the direction of the frontiers.' Before 181)0 one might have traveled twenty five kilometers of Russian territory without meeting a single soldier. All that is changed. There is a town with a large garrison twenty-tw- kilometers from the fron-tier and now barracks for 4O0 dragoons are being erected in tho Osseick do-main, which is only ten kilometers from the black and white frontier posts.

Suttle, who lives about a mile above town, hearing their dog barking near a cliff of rocks about one hundred yards from their house, went out with their gun to see what was the matter. Just as they reached tho place a mountain lion sprang out at tho dog. The boys snapped their gun at the lion several times, but as it failed to go oft they hurried back to the house and told their father. Mr Suttle, replacing the poor shell with a good one, returned to the spot and speedily dispatched tho lion, which was one of tho largest, of its species.

"The future of your city," laid he. tit the interviewer, "depends on the de-velopment of your mineral resources. Look after their development and tha grow th of Salt Lake will take care ot itself. You now occupy tho position, that Denver did a few years ago, arid poised as you are as a setting in a ver-itable sea of silver there can he no donbs as to the ultimate grandeur of the city. The realization of your hopes may ba hastened by the development of your mines that are now attract-ing as much attention as tho.sa of any country on the continent. All you require is pluck.

That is a fact already demonstrated by the bonanzas that are daily pouring ore into the furnaces by which your city is surrounded. Develop your mines, en-courage your railways to extend their1 lines into the hills "and the future of Zion is assured. Denver was but a baga-telle among the cities of the country until her mineral resources were devei-ope- d, and you occuyy the same position today." Mr. Wheeler is accompanied by his accomplished wtfe and will go to Eu-reka this week to look into the oppor tunics for investment at that point. EXCURSION FROM THE EAST. A Committee Appointed by the Real Kstate F.xchunge to Report on It. Tho real estate exchange met this morning. Several bills were prcseuted and liquidated, and the treasurer re-ported enough money on hand to pay all expenses for the remainder of the fiscal year. The exchange then took up the dis-cussion of the fcasability of the proposition of working as a whole to promote monthly ex-cursions from tho east during the coming summer. . A committee was appointed to investigate the matter aud report at the next meeting. The secretary then called the atten-tion of tho mem hers to his position which he characterized as being too arduous, too confining, and too bloom-ing much strain on his brain tissues foa him to do it all alone. The ex-change voted him an increase in salary of r0 cents a month and told him to keep on sawing wood. . FLASHES FROM THE WIRES. In Chile Signor Vicuna has been nominated for the presidency.
