SMALLPOX RIOT. FoUce Attempt to Preveat a Mass Metma Milwaukee special: One hundred police otUcers under command of Chief of Police janssen. who had been sent to the public square on the corner of ianin avenue ana jmiwauir.ee street to prevent a mass n eeting of citizens protesting against the placing of small pox patients in tne isolation nospitai. located in that vi, inity, were attacKed by a mob of 4,000 men with stones, bricks, and clubs, and the result is a list of twenty-nve wounded officers and citizens and eleven arrests. The wounded police officers are: Albert Niedner, Herman Jones, Gerhard Green, H. O. Andrews, and J. A. Wag ner. It was impossible to ascertain the names of most of the injured citizens because they fear arrest. None of tnem would speana wont, not even tneir neighbors would aivulge names. About thirty others were injured during the fight, but were either immediately carried off by their friends or went borne learins arrest in case it should be known that thev were in the mob. Eleven men who were arrested are almost all wounded, but not seri Dietreaa b Cores. Secretary Gresham has received from the "Christian Herald of New York, an application for a government ship to transport 1,000 barrels of Qour to Corea. This is the first notice that the Department has had that any un usual measure of distress and deprivation exists in the king dom. Assuming that it is true the officials do not see how so small a Quantity of grain, which the Coreans scarcely know how to use, will be of much avail in a population of 10,000,000 people. To complicate the situation, it is said that the Chinese and Japanese soldiers now occupying Corea are generally living on the countryjand supplies sent to the people might finally fall into the hands of the foreign soldiery. Secretary Gresham has not yet disposed of the application. The Oklahoma, Texas and Bock Island east bound express jumped the bridge near Lincoln, Neb. Ten passengers were killed and all the trainmen but the engineer. All the cars are burning. The killed are: Con ductor u u. stanaat-a, .engineer me Depew, fireman, unknown; tnree trav elizur men, two farmers, unknown. The engineer and fireman are buried tinder tne engine, xne otners are supposed to be burned in the wreck. The injured are: E. P. Scott, express man; C. D. Sherrer, mail clerk: t. S. Hail of Lincoln, traveling man. About twelve others are injured, but the names are not yet known, Omm Taonaanit HjoHara Beard. General Superintendent Cannifi has arrived a. Kendallviile, to investi gate the particulars of the attempted hold up of No. 12 on the Lake Shore the other night. He wasaccompanied oy prominent railway omciais, detectives, etc. After visiting the scene and getting what information he could, he issued notices offering $1,000 reward lor tne arrest ana conviction of the guilty parties who were concerned in the recent attempt. He is deter mined that tne villains sn&U be apprehended and punished. i Cm In. Scranton. (Pa.) special: The neatest mine cave-in that Scranton has known in years occurred at the Diamond Vein of the Hampton mine. Eight acres and twenty eight dwelling houses were affected, some of the dwellings being irreparably damaged. It is said the loss will reach over a quarter of a milis j.i) rm . . 5 una uuimr. xaure is a report mat two Poles who were at work in the mines beneath were killed, but it cannot be verified. Marla Vetaraae Entitled to Penilons The House Committee on Pens'ons has decided that the veterans of Gray's bataliion of Arkans -s volunteers, were entitled to the benefits of the Mexican war pension acts. This is one of the many irregular companies whose members have made claims for recognition as survivors of the Mexican campaigns, and will be one of the few whose claims have been recognized, A War Loaa. London special: A dispatch from Tien Tsin to the Central News says: "The Emperor of China has directed that a levy of war tribute be made upon the viceroys of the different provinces. A foVeign war loan is mooted at." Chinese troops with European officers are rapidly advancing throcgh Manchuria toward the Corean frontier. Prostburg (Md.) special: The Consolidated Coal Company has notified all the miners who stuck to their posts during the late protracted strike that they will each receive nine months rent and fuel free. A Daal Oovemnsent. A special from Birmingham, Ala., says: Kolb, the defeated candidate for Governor, announces that he will go to Montgomery and organize a dual state government. XHapenearjr Tet Caaa. Judge Aldrlcb, at Aiken, & C, fc assigned a order restraining the local authorities of Aiken from interfering with the State dispenser in the discharge of hie duty. Che raqoea will probably result In a decision upon the constitutionality of the dtapouary law of 189 under which Sutrnor Tillman claims he baa the right to reopen the dispensaries. Bat for Child Harder. An Allen town. Pa,, dispatch says that Lehlf h County's lint legal hanging since the county was Incorporated In 181J took place Tuesday morning. Harry F. Johnson point the victim. The crime for which Johnson paid the deah paualty was the murder of his t-year-old daughten Bertha Johaaon, on July 15, 1883. Wait ea the Wsasfc.

DEATH FOB THE ASSASSIN. Cesario Santo, Slayer of Carnot, to Die by tbe Guillotine. Put on trial for his Ufa Thursday; sentenced to death Friday. That, In a sentence, is tbe story ot the trial of Crsario Ban to, tbe assassin ot President Carnot From tbe beginning to the ond of the trial the murderer was pedant He was Impertinent to the Judge and insolent in manner and words. He denied nothing as far as his ova guilt was ciwonied, but rather gloried In the crime, and rnviewod the details of It without a tremor In his volco or a sign of emotion. But he refused to reveal any of the secrets ot the anarchists or to say a word that would inculpate any one else; in fact ho oxprossly donted that any one conspired with him, and iu open court" contradicted witnesses ho swore tht he had told a different story to thorn. He conducted himself with brazon effrontery and practically mado no defense whatever, even refusing to permit any plea of Insanity to he made In his behalf, ilo said that he was responsible for nhat be had dono; that he fully roallzed tho conseqaonces of his act; and that ho only resrotted that he had tried to run away after delivering the fatal blow. Even the death sontenco was greeted with tho exclamation: "Vivo la rcvoiutlonesoclalol"

JAPS GIVE 1SATTLK. They Meet and Defeat the Chinese Corona Soli, Official notification of a battlo between the Japanese and Chlnoso land forces In Corea was received at the Japanese lega tion at Washington Friday night from the foreign office at Toklo. Tho tele-Tarn con taining the news states that Sunday a part of the Jai aneo troops at Seoul marched against a much larger force of Chines? in trenched at Shan Yen?. A battle ensuod and, after heavy fighting, tho Chinese were put completely to rout and a lar. number of prisoners and munitions of war ere captured by the Japanese It is said there were 2,000 casualties. It Is reported that a number of Americans have signi fied to Japanese officials in Washington their desire to enter the military serv ice ot japan during ths pending war with China, An ex-official of tho United States to the former country calls attention to tbe fact that by the laws of the ITnltod States it Is made a penal offenso for an American citizen to enlist in tbe military service of either China or Japan when en gaged lu a war with a country at peace with the United States. CHANGE SEAIt AT HA2!D. Dun's Weekly Review Gives a More Hope' ful View. B. G. Dun ds Ca's Weekly Review of Trade says: An Important change In the state of business is near at nana. Wlien Congress acts on the tariff question one way or tbe other It is certain to give relief from pres ent paralyzing uncertainties, and cause some increase in business, at least for a time. So much business has been deferred during tbe past year and merchandise stocks have been so reduced that the mere approach of a decision, without certainty what it Is to be, has encouraged large preparation for increased bu-iness. In spite of outgoing cold and sinking treas ury reserves, small railroad earnings, some Injury to crops, and Increased trouble in the coke regions, the tone and outlook are -more hopeful. Too injury to crous by hot winds ana aronsut, it as great as some re port will affect all interests, but at this season it is never easy to distinguish be tween local and general damage. STRIKE 13 OFF SOW. So Declared by the Tote of Chicago Local Unions. By the action of tbe Chicago local unions of the American Hallway Union the great strike has been declared off upon all lines In Chicaeo. with the. exception of the Chi cago and Eastern Illinois and Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe roads. This de termination was taken ut a mass meet ing of railroad men held on Sunday In Uhlich9 hall and is the result of a secret session ot representatives fr. m each local union, the question being decided by ballot The order went Into effect on Monday morning. It reads: By a vote ot the local anions of Chicago, they have decided that the strike shall bo declared off in tbe city ot Chicago, with tho exception ot the local unions of the Chicago and Eastern Illinois and Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe roads, where It shall remain in full force," This order does not apply to rail road system or to linos outside the city. WARD EBEBL.T DIES SUDDENLY. Only Seventeen Year Old, but Weighed Five Hundred Founds. Ward Eberly.welghln? almost 500 pounds. died suddenly at Dayton, Ohio. He was but 17 years old and weighed only ten pounds when bora, but was conceded to be the heaviest youngster la tho vorld. A few weeks ago thousands ot peo, le saw him as one of the side show attractions at the great charity circus 1 ho doctor, conalder hts Illness, which had gradually developed since that time, due to excessive drinking of lemonade Reeds a Fort for Siberia. Russia is planning a coup d'etat In Corea. and unless tbe Czar's plans miscarry this will be one ot the most sensational Incidents of the war between China and Japan. According to news received In Washington, the Great Northern Bear Intends to grab one of tbe most deslrablo ports ot the Hermit Kingdom and establish sovereignty over It The reason for Russia's move Is her desire for a southern port which shall be open to her commerce throughout the year. The only iort Russia now has on her t-lborlan coast Is closed during the rigors of winter. Tne plan Is not of recent birth. According to this Information, which Is hero published for the first time. Russia conctved the idea of seizing some port in Coroa over a year ago. To make ber attempt success ful an opportunity like the present was necessary. The administration believes that but for Russian IntrUue the present war would not have come to pass. Ac cording to the information recetved tbe war may be expected to end in a very short time Russia's contemplated act may therefore be looked for at any moment It it Is not believe! that either Japan or China will resent it Japan is understood to be socretly backed by Russia, and China sould prefer Russia's seizure of a port in Corea to a Russian advance Into .blno,o territory from tbe north. Great Britain may chafe, but she has too much to attopd to at present to jrotest, much less to attempt forcibly to :heck Kuala in carrying out her coup. There to no more likelihood of this country's Interfering than there is ot its joining the triple alliance to keep open the treaty ports. The National Came.

ing when It became known that Joseph It. Wilson, who had just arrived at Denver from Missouri, whence he was brouxht on the chargo ot assaulting Adjutant Genoral Tarsnoy, bad made a full confession. Ills story, which is in many particulars a corroboration of tbe confession ot I'eputy Sheriff Parker, implicates high officials ot El Paso County in the tarring and feathering of General Tarsney on the night of Juno 23. The most sensutlonai features of Wilson's Confession are those! sheriff Bowers knew

that tho conspiracy was under way and actually encourngod It; that the deed was not the work of outcasts from tho Cripple Creek army, as has lieen claimed, but was suggested and carrlod out by men of hlxh standing In tho community and tho political enemies of General Tarsnoy t that two momliers of the Colorado National Guard, who are supposed to be tho comrades of General Tarsney under arms, wero alders and abettors of the crime: and that on the night of tho outrage a murderer was re leased from jail and actually helped In the assault GREAT nCI.GE IN CORN. Price Jumps Up Sevpn Cents Inside of Fifteen Minutes. There was a panic in the corn pit on the Chicago Board of Trndo Tuesday. A week of excited corn markets reached a climax when there was au advance in September options of 7 cents a bushel Inside ot the first fifteen minutes of tbe session. Monday that doitvery closed at 63Vj cents per bushel and within a quarter of an hour after tho ringing of tbe bell de claring the board open Tuesday it had sold at CO cents. The closing price was 69 cents. At tho samo timo wheat, which closed for r'eptembar delivery at 647-a had advanced to 5f7- Thus the un usual spectacle was presented of corn sell ing at 3 couts moro per bushel of fifty-six pounds than sixty pounds of wheat would bring. There Is no doubt as to tho cause of tho rise In valur.' of corn. The continuous drought, accompanied, as It has been, by a phonomcnally high temperature, has resulted lu such u daniazo to the crop that Instoad of 2.600,000,000 bushols of corn, which was at ono time promised, not even half of that quantity is now likely to be gathered. THEIR, OBJECT IS VEILED. Nobody Knows Why Royalist Hawallaus Are at Washing-ton There Is some curiosity manifested in Congressional circles to know the exact purnoso of the vl.lt of Messrs. Parker, Cummins, and Wl.leman. the Royalist en voys from Hawaii. While tboy huvo talked with various members of the House, they have not confided to any oue a doQ nlto lmprosslon of the ends which they hope to accomplish by their mission. l-i a genoral way they have viewed the various wrongs attending the overthrow of tlia monarchy, from their standpoint, and they hare complained of the interference of Mr. Stevens, which. tboy sav, brought about tho downfall. Tbey represent that tho present Govern ment can not bo considered a republic, and are not satisfied with the attitude of Mr. Willis nho Is said to bo as friendly to the American element as was his predecessor. But they do not ask tho membors to do anything in behalf of tho deposed queen nor do tbey stuto definitely why they are in Washington. INDIAN CLAIMS SETTLED. Cases Before the Department for Twenty Tears Are Now Closed. All of the claims arising from the sale of lands in Kansas included In allotments, made to thirty-two New York Indians, have been settled. The last was disposed of Tuesday, when Acting Secretary of the Interior Sims hi 1(1 that Michael Gray bad an interest In tbe lands on his own account and through the allotment to bis mothor. Mary Ann Gray, and he will accordingly receive a share of t".. "3 proceeds. The cases have been pending bofote the Interior Do partment for practically twentj- years. Tried to Rob n Train. Highwaymen mado a bold attempt to rob a through Luke tlioro express train early Tuesday mornlns at Kcssler's Sid' lng. Ind Shots wore firod at the engineer and train crow and the track had been blocked at two points with heaps of ties. Tho train narrowly escaped being wrecked, Twenty thousand dollars lu told wero ca rled In one of tbe express cars. Tho en gineer opened wirio tho throttle of tbe locomotive and the train passod In safety. Tbe bullets fired by tho highwaymen flew wide of their mark. This is the same train that was btOd up at Kcssler's about a year ago Had the train been slopped it is not supposed that tbe robbers would have been successful, as tho crow were heavily armed and the express cars were guarded by armed men. Poison in a Hotel. Twenty-four persons at tho Sloldln boarding-house at I'lattsmouth, Neb, wero poisoned Thursday, the drug being placed In the milk served at the breakfast tabla The victims were stricken an hour after partaking of tho meal, and every person In the hotel was rendered violently ill. The food remnlnlug was subjected to a chemical analysis, and tho milk was found to contain a quantity of poison, the nature of which will not be divulged until a re cently discharged employe who is Bald to have made threats against tho hotel proprietor Is located. Stratton la Caught, Await ins tho arrival of an officer from Canyon City, tola, with oxtraditlon papers, James IC Stratton passed Tuesday night la a cell at tho Chicago Central police station under tho watchful eyes of the lock-up keeper. Stratton Is a notorious and desperate criminal, who escaped from the penltoutiary at Canyon City on tlie night of Sept 17, 1893, whore hn was under a sentence of twentyone years for forgery and robbing mall boxes Fears Kidnapers. It is said that l're-d loni Cleveland Is ap prehensive that some one may undertake to klduuji his children, now at Gray Gables, and to guard against anything of this kind three of the brightest detectives in the employ of the Secret Service Bureau have been placed on duty there.

Those who i ssume that serious corn damage lias been dune and that the crop will be short all around can scarcely give a ) gic .1 rcuscn why wheat should be going at th.j lowest prices ever kuown. Any jrene:al oso of wheat to make up for corn i-hortag will introduce an e'oment which will upset all pre . ious ealeu ations as to demand and su ply. Wheat feeding has passed out of t".o experimental tttgos m many sections.

THE GREAT SOUTH AMERICAN

DOT

-AND

StomachLiver Ciire The Most Astonishing Medical Discovery of the Last One Hundred Years. It la 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 by the proprietora and manufacturers of tho Great South American Nervine Tonic, and yet its great value as a curative agent haa 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 tho 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 tonio qualities which it possesses, and by its gTt curative powers upon the digestive organs, the stomach, the liver and the bowels. No remedy compares with this wonderfully valuable Nervine Tonio 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 any consumption remedy ever used on this continent. It is a marvelous cure for nervousness of females of all ages. Ladies who are approaching tbe critical period known as change in life, should not fail to uso 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 inflf m, because its great energizing properties will give them a new hold on life. It will add ten or fifteen years to tho lives of many of thoBe 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, I'ains 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 food 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 tho 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 be supplied. This South American Nervine has been found by analysis to contain the essential elements out of which nerve tissue is formed. This accounts for its universal adaptability to the cure of all forms of nervous de
