Herrick seized the hand that held the revolver and struck the fellow In the face, staggering him. The man recovered in an Instant and they clinched. First one was down and then the other. Chairs were overturned, the table npset, and books scattered from one end of the apartment to the other. Finally the Intruder seized his revolver, leveled it and fired. The bullet passed through the lower edge of Herrlck's vest, on the left side, grazing the skin. One of the great windows stood slightly open, and the man mounted a chair, ust as the clerks and watchman appeared at the door. There was a rush toward him, but he leaned through the window to the sidewalk below, startling men who were working In the street, He ran like a deer, waving the smoking pistol, aad disappeared as thoroughly as if the earth had opened and swallowed him. BUSINESS IS BETTER. Demand for Manufactured Products Is Increasing. & a Dun A Ca's Weekly Review of Trade sums up the situation as follows: 'th turn of the tide has coma Since the elections there has been a dtrect Improvement tn buslne-s and particularly In manufacturing. There Is some Increase In actual transactions and much of the tone of business. Men of all parties feel that there Is ground for greater confidence, the silver question being put definitely oat of the way, and the chance of disturbing action in other respects being lessened, while the right of the people to rule their rulers has been vindicated. While It is yet too early to look for great changes, there la already a distinct improvement In the demand for manufactured products since the actiou on the silver bill, some increase In the output of pig Iron and In sales cf wool. In the building trades In several cities, and the failures tor the week latest reported show lower liabilities, la brief, the recovery which began when the stiver repeal bill passed continues with Increased strength. WILL NOT RECOGNIZE MELLO. President Cleveland Dee lines to Consider Him a Belligerent, Secretary Gresham has received a dispatch from Minister Thompson at Bio de Janeiro stating that Admiral Msllo, the insurgent leader, has asked that the United States recognize his rights as a belligerent, After a conference between -n-atrT Gresham and the President Min Admiral Mello that In the opinion of the government he had not been able to establish either a political or military organization which entitled him to the recognition he asked for. and that It would not be granted. Secretary Gresham added that the position of the United States In the present controversy waa that of an Impartial observer. Great Britain. throu;h Its embassador, has urged the United States to exert Its mediating Influence between the con flic ing elements In Brazil In order to bring to a speedy close the Internal strife which has been In progress in that country for some months. Connors Learned Not Wisdom. John Connors, for seven years custodian of stolen property for the police department of Chicago, U a self-confessed embezzler of the funds intrusted to his charge, the amount of bis stealings, according to his own statement, being between f-a.ROO and 1 4,800. The sum stolen, however, may be much larger. Mayor Swift thinks The bond, supposed to be for IS, 000, and signed by ex-Alderman Cullerton and Timothy Griffin, and by which Connors Indemnified the city from loss to that amount, Is mfterlGualy missing. A strange coincidence In connection with the loss of tho bond Is the fact that Mr. Cullerton waa making Inquiries for It two days before the arrest of the thief. An odd fate. Indeed, is Connor'. For year he has sat at a desk Immediately above the barred room that m confines him, receiving the moneys and valuables stripped from thieves brought tn by the detectives. For years he has listened to the tales of downfall and its causes. None knew better than Connors that drink and gambling were the causes which led astray nine cut of ten of the men brought into the station, and led them to robbery and disjrace. Yet Connors takes up the same path and with the same result For to gambling and whisky b due the misery this man has brought upon himself, wife and two children. Kerned One-Half Million.

Taesday developed another sensation at she Chicago city hall in the way of em
bezzlement by a city official This time
Julius nag), a brother or tne superin tendent of the West Chicago Street Hallway Company, is the dishonest man. The amount tf which the city was robbed by him Is believed to be less than WOO. The defalcation was made known to Charles Nagl about weeks ago and the matter was usquHred" wlthont prosecution by the embezzler's brother coming forward with a check for $581 and leaving word that if further deficits were discovered he should be Informed at once In order that he might make tfaom good. All this was done without the authority of the Mayor, the Super. Intendent of the Water Department or the Commissioner of Public Works, so far as Is now known. The development of Nagl's embezzlement, coming on the heels of the discovery of Connors' dishonesty, it 1 said, will be the cause of a thorough Investigation of all departments of the city .government with a view of determining lust how much crookedness is In progress or has been completed. CAUCUS MEN ARE DEFEATED. Tariff BUI to Go to House as 80011 Finished. Washington dispatch: The new tariff bill, which is being formulated by tbe Ways and Means Committee, is attracting the attention of tbe Democrats with a force second only to the Interest formerly taken In the repeal bill. Many Democrats in fact, the majority desire that before the bill is Introduced It should be submitted to a party caucus. I he result of such a stop Is not a puzzle. Once before the caucus, tbe bill would emerge, bnt hacked and hewn beyond recognition and lu a hopeless condition. Therefore, Messrs. Bland, Culbertson and others bitterly oppose tho caucus until the bill has been Introduced. Tbe bill under a new rule may bo Introduced boforo the session opens. That is. It may be given to the clerk and printed, This will probably be done to give the Republicans ten days to prepare a minority report and also save as much time as possible. Tbe bill Is rapIdly Bearing completion and several subcommittees have about finished their work, but so far all details have been kept as aecreta As eoo& as all the sub-committee work Is done the various divisions will be reviewed as a whole by the Democratic wing of the committee, ARH3 FOR BIFF TRIBES.

QUEEN LILIUOKALANI TO BE RESTORED. An Examination of the Case Has Convinced Seoretary Gresham that a Wrong VFm Committed the Queen of the Sandwich Islands. Says 'Ttrai a Conspiracy. Queen Liliuokalani will be restored to her throno in Hawaii, if she has not been restored ere this. Friday afternoon President Cleveland's Cabinent held an unusually long; cession, and as a result of the discussion it war decided to give to the press the recommendation made by Secretary Gresham iu the Hawaiian matter to the President. Minister Willis arrived in Honolulu on Monday last, it is supposed, and as he had in his 'pocket instructions in conformity with tho recommendations of Secretary Gre?ham, which have been approved by tho President, it is probable, says a Washington correspondent, that by this time the provisional government has been deposed and the Queen has reasserted authority over the islands. At flrkt other members of the Cabinet opposed this method of settlement. They declared the restoration of the Queen would be unpopular, and that it would be an unfortunate thing for the administration if it adopted this policy. But gradually the Secretary's presentations of the question won over not only the other members of the SECBETABY ORESnAM. Cabinet but the President himself. The Secretary's letter is based upon what he describes as "the full and impartial report" submitted by J. H. Blount, Cleveland's special commissioner to the Hawaiian Islands. Secretary Gresham declares that the following facts arc established: S neen Llll lokalanf announced her Intention urday. Jan. 14. 103, to proclaim a new constitution, but the opposition ot her ministers Induced her t o change her purpose. At a meeting in Honolulu late the utterr.oon of that day a so-called committee of uMto safety, consisting of thirteen men, a majority of whom, including five Americans, were aliens, was appointed To consider the sitnation and devise ways and means for the maintenance of the puhlio peaoo and the proteotion of lite and property." This coram ttee met the 16th or the forenoon f the lGth and resolved among other things that a provisional government be crested, "To exist un til terms of union with the United States of America have been negotiated and agreed upon." The committee addressed a letter to John L. Btevens, the Amerioan Minister at Honolulu, stating that the lives and property ot the people were In peril, and appealing to him and the United States forces at his command for assistance. On receipt of this letter Mr. Stevens requested Capt. Wilts, commander of the United States steamship Boston, to land a force. The well-armed troops were promptlv landed and marched through the quiet streets of Honolulu with two Gatlintt guns to a publto hall, just across the street from the Government building and In plain view of tbe Queen's palace. The Protest Was Prompt and Vigorous, The governor protested against the act as au unwarranted Invasion of Hawaiian Bull and reaiiudhig him that the proper authoiities had ntjver denied permission to the naval forces of prupeV purpose. 'Aljont tlTe'ame qneen's minister of foreign affairs sent a note to Mr. Stevens asking why the t roops had been landed, and Informing him that the proper authorities were able and willing to afford full proteotion to the American Legation and all Amerioan interests in Honolulu. Only evasive replies were sent to these communications. Tjien the committee entered the government be tiding after first ascertaining that it wrs unguarded, and one of their number, a citizen of tbe United State, read a proclamation declaring tbat the existing government wr.s overthrown and a provisional government ectabllsbed In its place "to exist until terms of union with the United States ot America have been negotiated and agreed upon." No audience was present when the 1 reclamation was read, but during the reading forty or fifty men, some of them indifferently armed, entered the room. The executive and advisory counoils, mentioned In the proclamation, at once addressed a communication to Mr. Stevens, informing him that the monarchy had been abrogated and a provisional government established. On receipt of this letter Mr, Stevens lmmedlstely recognised the new government, and in a note addressed to Sanford B. Dole, its president, informlnit him that he had done so. The Queen was informed that the provisional government had the support of the American minister, and, if necessary, would be maintained by the military toroe of the United States, Secretary Gresham concludes: The earnest appeal to the American minister for military protection by the officers of the provisional government after it had been advanced shows the utter absurdit y of the claim that it was established by a successful revolution of the people. The government of Hawaii surrendered Us authority under a threat of war until such time only as tbe Government of the United States, upon the fact being presented to it, should reinstate the constitutional sovereign and the provisional government was created "to exist until the terms of union with the United Stat of America ha.-: been negotiated and agreed upon." A careful consideration of tho acts will. I think, convince anyone that tuo treaty which -was withdrawn from the Senate for further consideration should not be resubmitted for aotion. Onr Government was the first to recognize the Independence of the islands and should be tho last to assume sovereignty over them ly force and fraud. Stevens Is Surprised, Augusta, Me., dispatch: John L. Stevens, late United States Minister to the Hawaiian Islands, was shown the press oispatcn announcing the roport of SeeretarvGrosham to the President upon the affairs connected with the Hawaiian revolution. Mr. Stevens real itearefullv "' and said: "The posi tion to which Secre tary Gresham has seen fit to commit himself is eo ext raor JOUK Im STEVENS. dinary, so void of a real foundation of truth, so calumnious of the living and the dead, that I have no extended reply to make at this time. I prefer to let time and events and history decide as to the ifisuo the Secretary has raised against tho Provisional Government and the aspersions he sees fit to cast on the deceased Captain of tho Boston, the officers under his command, and myself. Tho way tho United States Minister and the officers of tin- Boston discharged their responsibilities at Honolulu in January was more than covered by Secretary Hayard's instructioiiM. approved bv I'i evident Cleveland, of July , 1-S87." Sure tn Itesult in Hluodhed, Indianapolis dispatch : When tho news of tho action of tho Cleveland Cabinet in referenco to Hawaii was carried to General Harrison to-night he waa inclined to doubt it. and said be did not think the President would announce a policy, except in a message to Congress. "But in any event, whether or not," ho said, "I do not want to comment on Mr. Cleveland's outs." General Harrison continued: "The Queen cannc'. resume her throne, I lwliove, without bloodshed, and it romuitis now to see whether tho United Stales service will bo used to establish her in power again. Tho question of annexation Is one of deep interest to America, and will be handled, I havo no doubt, by the newspapers and the people in m patriotic manner." HARDTO EXPUUnT Results of the Election a Surprise to Wash-' Ington Politicians. Washington dispatch: The result of the election was received with surprise by all political partio hero. The unexpected happened in so many instances that in no case were the pre
1 P!rf V
dictions of Democrats, Republicans, or Populists fully verified. Tho chief surprise of tho" Domocrates urisea, not from tho fact that they wore defeated, but that the defeat was so general in all doubtful States and the Republican majorities so overwhelming. Expressions from nearly all tho prominent Democratic leaders at tho capital several days boforo election showed that tho Democrats were preparing for defeat in those States whore tbe free coinage element is strong and the disappointment over iho passage of tho repeal bill int use. but it was hardly expected that in tho "sound money" States of New York and Massachusetts tho Democratic majorities of tho past would be so ruthlessly mowed down and the careful efforts of perfect organization avail eo littlo. Despite this all the prominent Democratic leaders unite in a cribing the general defeat throughout tho country to two causes. The dissatisfaction of the agricultural elements over tho financial question and the widespread apathy of disappointed office-seekers who havo failed to realize tho fruits of tho last Democratic victory. In Iowa tho defeat of Boios is important, not in that It means a Republican Governor in that Stato and a Republican United States Senator next winter, but that it practically removes Boies from tho list of Western candidates for tho Presidency in !IH. The President did not show that intense interest in the returns that would have indicated a confidence in Democratic victory. Early in tho evening the President went to his country home inst ad of remaining at tho Executive Mansion, a? is usual on election nights, aud tho returns ho received were only those of sufficient importance to be telcph ued out to Wooaley by private Secretary Thurber as the latter received them from the telegraph wire at the White House. Gov. Boies 1 Kealgned. A dispatch from Waterloo, la., Governor Boies' Lome, says: Governor Boies takes his defeat philosophically. On account of his illners he was notupprited of tho result until next morning. The Governor manifested no surprise, and said thut personally he had no feeling of regret, though for his party ho had hoped for a different result.
CARTER HARRISON'S ASSASSIN. Ills Trial Will Como Off During the Last Week of November. Eugene Joseph Prondergast, the assassin of Mayor Harris. 11. of Chicago, has been very quiet, except for the first few duys, since his arrest, and has refused to "answer any questions. Instead of being tho criminal hero he expected to become ho finds he U despised by all. The prisoners, his fellows, have teen outspoken in their denunciations of him, and he knows their sentiments woll. This general feeling of abhorrence had its effect on Prendergast, and after a few days' incarceration he lust much of the fierce look and speech of madness which he betrayed on his arrest. When the phy.-icians appeared to make an examination of him the other day he was perfectly quiet, and refused to speak further than to answer necessary questions. He was subjected to a most elaborate physical examination. His head and body "were measured, his eyesight tested, and his heart and lungs sounded. The physician at the end refused to give the results until thoy had consulted together. And, in anv case, thoy said, the trial was tho only proper time for them to speak.

Early Sanitation. As far back as the reign of Richard II. we find an act for "the punishment of them which cause corruption near a city or great town to corrupt the air" (lS Rich. II., c. 13, A. D. 138i, the preamble of which notos that so much filth "be cast and put in ditches and other waters, and also within many other places that tho air there is greatly corrupt and infect, and many maladies and other diseases do daily happen." This is essentially sanitary legislation. A century luter we find an act under tho heading. "Butchers shall kill no beasts within anv walled town, or Cambridge" i l Henry 'li.,c.3, A. D. 1487). The preamble of this speaks of the "corruptions engendered by reason of tho slaughter of beasts and scalding of swine." tho "unclean, corrupt and putrefied waters," and goes on to tho remarkable statement that "in few noblo cities and towns, or none w ithin Christendom the common slaughterhouse of beasts should be kept within the walls of the same, lest it might engender sickness, unto the destruction of the people."

We must be just to our ancestors; though they undoubtedly hud not much science (and they did not use long words ending in "ation") the ldoa oi health as a matter of public concernment was not foreign to their minds.

AND StomachLiver Cure The Most Astonishing Medical Dtoeovery of the Last One Hundred Years. It is Pleasant to the Taste as the Sweetest Nectar. It is Safe and Harmless as the Purest Milk. This wonderful Nervine Tonic has only recently been introduced Into this country Ivy tho proprietors and miimifacturers of tho Great South American Nervine Tonic, and yet its ijreat value as a curative agent has long been known by a few of the most learned physicians, who have not brought its merits and value to the knowledge of the general public. This medicine has completely solved the problem of the cure of indigestion, dyspepsia, and diseases of the general nervous system. It is also of the greatest value in the cure of all forms of failing health from whatever cause. It performs this by the great nervine tonic qualities which it possesses, and by its grt curative powers upon the digestive organs, the stomach, the liver and the bowels. No remedy compares with this wonderfully valuable Nervine Tonic as a builder and strengthcner of the life forces of the human body, and as a great renewer of a broken-down constitution. It is also of more real permanent value in the treatment and cure of diseases of the lungs than uny consumption remedy ever used on this continent. It is a marvelous cure for nervousness of females of all ages. Ladies who are approaching the critical period known as change in life, should not fail to use this great Nervine Tonic, almost constantly, for the space of two or three years. It will carry them safely over the danger. This great strengthener and curative is of inestimable value to the aged and infirm, because its great energizing properties will give them a new hold on life. It will add ten or fifteen years to the lives of many of those who will use a half dozen bottles of the remedy each year.
IT IS A GREAT REMEDY FOR THE CURE OF
Nervousness, Nervous Prostration, Nervous Headache, Sick Headache, Female Weakness, Nervous Chills, Paralysis, Nervous Paroxysms and Nervous Choking, Hot Flashes, Palpitation of the Heart, Mental Despondency, Sleeplessness, St. Vitus Dance, Nervousness of Females, Nervousness of Old Age, Neuralgia, Pains in the Heart, Pains in the Back, Failing Health,
Summer Complaint of Infants.
All these and many other complaints cured by this wonderful Nervine Tonic. NERVOUS DISEASES. As a cure for every class of Nervous Diseases, no remedy has been able to compare with the Nervine Tonic, which is very pleasant and
harmless in all its effects upon the youngest child or the oldest and most delicate individual. Nine-tenths of all the ailments to which the human family is heir are dependent on nervous exhaustion and impaired digestion. When there is an insufficient supply of nerve fosd in the blood, a general state of debility of the brain, spinal marrow, and nerves is the result. Starved nerves, like starved muscles, become strong when the right kind of food is supplied; and a thousand weaknesses and ailments disappear as the nerves recover. As the nervous system must supply all the power by which the vital forces of the body are carried on, it is the first to suffer for want of perfect nutrition. Ordinary food does not, contain a sufficient quantity of the kind of nutriment necessary to repair the wear our present mode of living and labor imposes upon the nerves.
For this reason it becomes necessary that a nerve food do supplied,
