CRUISER SAILS FROM NEW YORK UNDER SEALED ORDERS Aa Ittyaaan Knitted of •8.000 WWfe r t»Vy -MOn-d On-Negro I«Mb Mikm*** aiMt Bunted—Nßro-Gly-amrfaa *bt*>MwMu. •“■■ywiawv* Kelea-ei by a Koh. At Rusft’trilfe, Franklin County, Ala., a mob broke into the jail and released lkx*k and Uee Siles, two notorious Marion County murderers and outlaws. who wore "imprisoned for the murder of Postmaster Kirk at Guin. The Marion County Jail was found unsafe, and some time ago the Silos boys wore taken to Russellville for safe keeping. Three weeks ago the Sheriff heard that an attempt would bo made to release the outlaws by their friends and he had a posse on hand one night when the attempt was made. As a result one of the would-be rescuers was killed and two others captured. The other night, however, the outlaws’ friends took the jailer by surprise, burstopen the doors, overpowered the jailer, and unlocking the cells let the two men out. A posse is searching for them. They aro bad men, and it is safe to say will not be taken alive. A Darin© Robbery. Pacifflc Express Messenger McCullough was knocked down by a burly negro on the platform station at Marshall. Texas, and robbed of his pouch, containing an amount estimated at between $5,030 and SB,OOO. Immediately after knocking the messenger down,the negro grabbed the pouch and made his escape in the darkness. The scuffle and robbery was witnessed by about fifty persons about the depot, but it was all done so quickly no one had time to recover from his astonishment and interiere till the negro had disappeared. The unprecedented bold robber was not recognized by any one and was, apparently, an utter stranger. No one seems able to give anything like a coherent description of the robber, and no clew to his identity or whereabouts has yet been gleaned. Hanged and Burned. The house of Ben Nabors, near West’s, Homes County. Miss., was burned. Later the bodv of Nabors was found in the ruins. It was in [different portions of the build, ng and bore evidence of having been dismembered. Ho bad of money, consisting of gold and silver in the house. Careful search failed to reveal any of it in the ruins. He lived alone with a negro youth and suspicion at once centered on him as being the murderer. A bloody ax was found concealed near the house. The negro was arrested and bjood fonnd on his clothing, ho question existed fiiflong the excited neighbors about the negro's guilt as shown before the coroner’s jury. Tne negro was hanged by a mob and his body burned. Terrific Nitro G'ycerlne Explosion. The magazine of the Acme Torpedo Company at Willow Grove, Fa., was blown to atoms by an explos.on of a large quantity of nitro glycerine. Buildings for miles around wtre shaken and considerable damage was done. Every window glass in the town was shivered. No person was seriously injured. The explosion was caused by the glycerine becoming overheated from a lire built to thaw it out. This is the third time within two years that the magazin has been destroyed. Under Sealed Orders. The cruiser New York has sailed from the Brooklyn havy Yard, and with the exception of a short stay somewhere near Gravesend Bay or Sandy Hook to take a pilot on board, will go direct south. Capt. Philip refused to say where the cruiser is bomd for. A mail memorandum posted in a prominent place in the officers’ quarters indicate very clearly that the ship was bound for Rio de Janeiro. Lively Race War, Cerrlllos (N. M.) special: The report of a race war on the sheep ranges west of here has been confirmed. Five whites and nineteen Mexicans are reported to have been killed and further trouble is anticipated. It is expected that the Governor will send for troops to quell the trouble. The fee.ing on both sides is intense and much excitement prevails, j

Port Huron’s Theater Burnett Port Huron (Mich.) special: Fire destroyed the City Opera Ho..se building, entailing a loss of $34.0j0. The building was valued at $20,0 0 and insured for $10,003. R. J. Clark, hardware, loses ss,’HHi, insurance w>,000; .I.' L, Paid, abstract o uce, los s $3,000, no insurance. Other losses aggregate 83,000 covered by insurance. Disproves a Deathbed Confession. At Sioux City, lowa, the three men implicated by Jebsie Williams in t.ie murder of John Rohrer have been able to prove a comp etc alibi and the pol ce records show that Jessie was in jail at the time Rohrer was murdered, so that her deathbed confession is a fabrication beyond any doubt. Inveatlg-ating a Peculiar Death. John O Rourke was killed on the Panhandle liai road at Marion. Ind. He was lying across track when he was stru. kby a ire ght engine. There are suspicion that he haa been murdered and placed on the track and an investigation is on foot. Proven His innocence. At Win heater, Ohio. Sam Johnson, whom Ros oe Parker in his con cssion of the Ryan murders implicated as an accomplice has proved himself innocent and was released from jail. Sent the Police to Jail. All the |x>lieemcn arrested for stealing goods sent to the destitute miners at Ironwotxl, Mich., were convicted and sentenced to the county jail, fpr sixty days. No Chan ;»• ni Honolulu. The Murij csa has arrived at San , Fran is to and G-’tigs the following Honolulu advices Toe united States cutter l.orw.n h. a arrived here, bringing di pat •l.es to Minisier Willis, the contents of which nave not yet been disclosed. ’1 bo general belief here is that be is instr.i ted to make every effort to restore the Queen short of us- * ing ,’orce. The provisional Government has prepared un ultimatum declaring their intention to resist with military fore all attempts to overthrow them. The “Atneri an League” • secret society, whose object is the organization lor res Stance in arms to the restoration of tHb mouarchy,is a

society of a fairly high character and includes In its membership several of the best men in Honolulu. The bulk qf its members is from the hardier class of American workingmen. Most of the well-known white royalists continue to express confidence in tho restoration of the Queen oy the United States forces. ,A few aro cursing Minister Willis for his delay to carry out the President's policy. BRAZII. REBELLION. Government Troops Driven from the Cuntom House and Other Places. The London Times publishes tho following from Rio de Janeiro, dated December 16, via Montevideo, December 20: Since my lust dispatch, the insurgents have directed a heavy riflo and machine gun fire on tho shore front, driving the government troops from tho custom h<Riso, Largo Da Paco, and other points. All business? in tho oily is practically stopped and there is no communication beween shipping and shore. Tho heavy artillery tire continues. Thursday, when the garrison of Villogaignon was dining, a shot from the Saoa Joao penetrated tho casements, killing five, and wounding nine. Friday, five men at Fort Villogaignon were wounded. The Nietheroy is quiet. A thousand government troops, under Gen. ; Telles, Thursday, attempted to retake Governador Island, but tho insurgents surrounded the invaders, cutting off retreat Gon. Tellos was on* of the first wounded. The Government troops lied in all directions. The insurgents had seven wounded, i Steam launches posted near tho fort, I report that no fugitives have yet attempted to rccross to the mainland and it is thought probable that tho Government troops are entrapped and will surrender. EXPRESS MESSENGER KILLED. Texas the Scene of a Daring Train Robbery. When the Southern Pacific eastbound train reached Dayton. Texas, John C. Richardson, the Wells-Fargo messenger, was found dead in his car, his head split open by a blow from an axe. and the car robbed. The wnole affair was quite mysterious. At Dayton the station express agent appeared 1 at the door of the car, but # could not get an answer, and a colored brakeman, finding the door slightly ajar, pushed it back and was horrified to find the body of Messenger Richardson lying along side of the safe. While I the body was still warm life was ex-| tinct. Three bullet holes in the back showed the cowardly nature of the attach Another ballet had plowed a furrow in the back of the head. It is thought one man did the work. 1 Richardson's pistol was found in his ; locker, and he was evidently shot down as he stood with no thought of danger, by the small safe. One bullet from a 45-caliber revolver was found in the car. The car was a combined baggage and express with blind end, four side doors, and no partition. It was well filled with baggage and fexpresaJ matter and a person gaining an entrance unobserved could readily secrete himself. DYNAMITE BOMBS. They Still Continue to Worry tbe French ' Authorities. Paris special: The police continue to receive a large number of suspicious looking packages, supposed by their 1 finders to be infernal machines. These packages are cither found in the streets ! or are addressed to individuals, Most 1 of t ißm on exhibition prove harmless, { and are evidently intended to make ■ people believe that the anarchists aro : still actively at work, home of the specimens, however, are really dangerous. For instance, one found, a few days ago on the window sill of the Marie of the thirteenth arrondisement, was found to contain a quantity of blast-, in? powder and seventy revolver cartridges. A fuse had been attached to ' tho p ckage but it had owing to some I deie.t in tne arm, burned out without I caus ; ng an oxp 0.,i0n. Un the package were inscribed the words: “Death to ' the bourgeoisie.” Auguste Val.iant, tho anarchist under arrest for causing the explosion in the Chamber of Deputies, which crime he has confessed, has received donations amounting to 3.000 francs since he was lodged in prison.

Death on the JB. A O. A small engine at the Edgar Thompson Steel Works to haul ladles o. metal, crashed into the West Newton accommodation on the Baltimo. e end Ohio Rai road, on a bridge near ! Bessemer, Pa., hauling one coach of ; the accommodation into the creek forty feet bebw. Ten persons were injured, ; one of whom has since died, another is believed to have been fatally hurt. At the point where the accident occurred, one of the Carnegie narrow gauge tracks and three Baltimore and Ohio tracks form an angle. When the , West Newton accommodation waspass- ! ing a dinkey engine hauling a train of empty ladle cars came up 1 at full speed and plunged into the passenger train into the middle coich, drove it off the line, turned it bottom upward and hurled it to the creek bank below, where it landed on its to >, trucks uppermost. The rear coach was thrown upon its side, an 1 ten or twelve passengers in it made their escape from the windows. The car took fire, but fortunately al l were rescued. The blame is l not yet fixed.

Big Fire at Adraln. The Masonic Temple at Adrian, Mich., built in 1865 at a cost of $85,030, was de; troyed by Are. It was o 'cupiod by all the Masonic lodges in the city, who retained the third and fourthl tloors, the second being occupied by at orneys, and the ground floor by the Lenawee County Savings Bank, the United States Express Compankand McConnell’s dry goeds house. /The latter loses $110,00'3, with an insurance of SIB,IOO. The building was insured for $20,000. Other losses will increase the aggregate considerably. : Another Dynamite Outrage.

McClelland has been placed under arrest, as recommended by tho coroner's jury. Ho will have to answer to the next grand jury on the charge of murdering his father and brother twelve years ago, and placing their bodies in a . pond on tho farm to conceal the crime. - John Martin, charged with being an • accessory, is an eni| love at tho Sando- • val mine. He is also in tho custody of > the Sheriff. There is a rumor that i ho has expressed a willingness to turn i State’s evidence. Hrnsattonul Suicide. Ignatz Herat, arrested at Cleveland, Ohio, on a cliurgo of grand larceny, • was found hanging from his cell door at tho'third f recinct Station, dead. He had taken tho strap from his waist, tied one end to tho upper )>art of the I door and slowly strangled to death. Herat is believed to bo t.ho man who has broken so many windows and relieved several stores of their displays. Dosponiencv caused by his arrest, and tho deplorable condition of his family, is the cause assigned for the aoL . Ohio'. Roby. Three hundred sports remained up all night to witness a prize tight at I Fort. Jennings, near Lima. Ohio, early ! the other morning. The principals were the Mute, a slugger from Delphos, and John King, of Faulding. The i ghtwosfor »500 and- the gate receipts.

A Backward Glance at the Past Twelve Months. STORY BRIEFLY TOLD. CHRONOLOGICAL ARRAY OF IMPORTANT EVENTS. The Tear of Our Lord Eighteen Hundred and Ninety-three WUI Be Prominent In the History of Hie World—lts Changes, Fraught Largely with Prosperity, l»nt Drought. Disaster, and Devastation Wore Not Escaped—Concise Review of Current Events. The year 1893 w.ll be prcmin-'tft in the history of the world until tho end of time. At homo it markol the existence and unoxamp.ed success of the stupendfcu- Co umbian Exposition; it ushered in sp widespread a financial stringency that a panic ensued, necessitating a special session of .Congress to devise moans of .relief, which found expression in the repeal of tho Sherman law; in many parts of our land drought caused great distress to agriculturists, which in turn reacted upon commercial interests; incident to the enormous passenger traffic Chicagoivard, was a series of the most horrifying railway disasters; tho Wost and South have been swept by tremendous storms and floods, and in tho latter section also pestilence has raged; tho great lakes were the scene of many wrecks, wi;h sad loss of life. A change in the administration of national affairs occurred early in the year, and in tho fall elections were held which indicated a square'y oppositj political drift. Abroad, among tho minor powers, the usual story of international strife is rehearsed. Ev en at the close of the year, Brazil and several of the Cential American powers are rent with internal strife and dissension. Continental Europe has beenqu’et, but the year chronicles some of the most appalling disasters of the century < n land and sea. The sinkirg of H. M. S. Victoria by tho C&mpereown is the mest notable. The chronological record following was not designed to inc ude any event which had less than a general inte- esL A number of petty occurrences, of first interest, perba- s, to certain localities, have been omitted. But it is believed that up to date no really important event has been missed.
