Chicago Day.

Chicago, Oct. 10.—It was an ideal day for the observance of Chicago day at the world’s fair grounds. From morning until night not a cloud appeared in the sky. The White City never was more beautiful, standing out in such delightful contrast against the blue of the sky, witn the blue lake fur its foreground, covered with streamers, steam yachts and sail vessels, each one of them black with its living freight To the aspect of beauty which it always wears, be the weather what it may, was added a holiday aspect of gayety from the profusion of flags and banners which everywhere fluttered in the breeze. A large number of disasters occurred

the loss of life at Cheniere Caminada; Teamed ^ ^ ^ kiU I ed where 775 bodies have been recovered I had a terrildediM^^n'ry.mmnch T;*! ^ score or more of persons were in-

and buried. Father Goudreaux, the 1 parish priest, has furnished a list of 82U known to be dead. The estimates of the loss run from this figure to 1,200 for the Cheniere proper and 1,800 for the

whole district.

Many Children PerUhed. Of the 822 dead at Cheniere Caminada whose names are known 490 were children. r I he Caminada people are famous for large families. Mr. Lafon lost his wife and fifteen children. August llonamour his wife and ten children and Aisere Petre his wife and ten children. The families of the three Valence brothers, who lived together—John, Aulome and Perie—consisted of six grown persons and twenty children. Of these twenty-six only one—John V alence—survived.

Many Are Misting.

In tht? Hayou Cook section the nuruber of bodies recovered have been 181, as follows; In Bayou Cook, thirtyseven; Bayou Shute, thirty-seven;Grand bayou, twenty-six; Bayou Ferrand, seven; Bayou Chalard, one; Cypress bay, sixteen, and at Tropical bend, on the Mississippi river, 18 miles distant, where they floated from the swamp, seventeen. There are 188 other persons still missing, who have not been seen since the storm. Their bodies are supposed to be lying in the swamps or were swept to sea. This makes the total loss in the Bayou Cook county 814, twothirds of whom arc Austrians from Dal-

matia.

List of the Dead. Only a few additional losses of life are reported to-day except at sea. These are: Creole Gap, 5; Doe Island, 3; Slidell, 3; Wrenns Island, 2. Thqlistof the dead is now given as follows by dis-

tricts:

The sufferers in Plaqneminoare in the least want, as the sugar planters of that parish have guaranteed them work, and a large number have already secured places. Appealing; for Assistance. The board of trade has sent a telegraphic appeal for assistance to the commercial exchanges of New York, Chicago, St. Louis. Cincinnati, Kansas City, Philadelphia, Boston, Baltimore, Pittsburgh, Minneapolis, St. Paul, Omaha and other cities. The appeal says that the people of Louisiana will bury the dead and feed the starving, but asks contributions to enable the survivors of the disaster to follow their former vocations and support their families. Between 870,000 and $75,000 was raised Friday by the various relief committees and six boats laden with provisions were sent to the districts devas-

tated.

Changed the Topography. The effects of the storm at the Cheniere is not only in the destruction of all the houses, but it has succeeded in changing and altering the topography and character of the country. The settlement formerly faced Barataria bay. The washing away of its front has made it face the Gulf of Mexico. Chandler island has ceased to be an island, the storm washing away the soil and leaving it merely a reef covered in ordinary tides. A number of bayous have changed their courses, while lakes and bays have been enlarged or less-

ened.

Ilrraks the Excursion Record. Chicago, Oct. Jl.—The Erie’s special worM’s fair excursion, which left New York Monday morning with 400 passengers, passed Salamanca Monday night in six sections of ten to twelve cars each with 2,223 passengers. This Chicago excursion beats all records, being the largest number of people ever handled for this distance by any road on one schedule.

Rabies from Guinea I’ig Rite. Oakland, 111., Oct. 9.—That rabies is not confined alone to the bite of dogs is illustrated by the terrible death of a young man bitten by a mad guinea pig. The victim was Charles Clark, employed on the Center farm west of town. Just 1(10 days previous to his death the unfortunate young man was bitten by the pig. Struck by a Train. Middletown, O., Oct. 9.—At a railway crossing near here a wagon containing Matthew Foley and his wife and two children was struck by a train and Mrs. Foley and the two boys were killed and Mr. Foley was fatally injured.

A BIG CHECK.

It Is Drawn to Free the World’s Columbian Exposition of Debt. Chicago, Oct. 10.—Treasurer Sceberger and Auditor Ackerman celebrated Chicago day by making out a check for $1,565,810.70, payable to tbe Illinois trust and savings bank, trustee of the holders of exposition debenture bonds. The check will go to President J. J. Mitchell of the bauk to-day, and will be used to settle the last cent of debt owed by the fair. Of the amount called for by the check 9231,960.76 is for interest and 91,333,350 for the last installment of 30 per cent, due on the issue of $5,000,000 floated to insure the completion of the fair. WANT FOREIGNERS KILLED.

Chinese Petition the Throne to Do WholeHalt* Murder. San Francisco, Oct. 11. -The steamer City of Rio Janeiro arrived from Hong Kong and Yokahoma Monday morning, bringing advices to September 23. A petition to the throne, has been circulated in Chang Chihtung with a view to stirring up the people to kill all foreigners and burn their property. It shows,among other things, how one concession after another has been made to “the English barbarians” until at no distant day they will get entire possession of the land.

Prominent Mexican Killed. City of Mexico, Oct. 10.—Mail advices have been received from the city of San Cristo stating that a few nights ago Gen. Manuel Escabador, at one time governor of Chiapas and member of the senate, was assassinated at his house in Tapachulta by shots fired from the street, twelve of the projectiles lodging in his heart. Tapachulta bein most on the Gautemalean frontier, it is probable that the assassin escaped in that direction.

Centennial of Williams College. Williamstown, Mass., Oct 9.—The centennial of Williams college was celebrated Sunday. Prominent alumni were present Andrew Carnegie and President Seth Low, of Columbia, arrived by special train. The sermon was preached by Rev. Dr. Henry Hopkins, '53, of Kansas City, the text being "Connection of Religion and Educa-

GREAT DAMAGE TO CROPS.

Million* of Rushels of Wheat Destroyed by Dad Weather In Waslngton. Spokane, Wash., Oct. 10.—Reports coming in show that about 3,000.000 bushels of wheat have been totally destroyed in this state, and that at least 8,000,000 bushels more will have to be graded down to about half price. The heavy rain for the last three davs has in many sections knocked down the crop that remains uncut, and before it can be harvested it will sprout and be destroyed. In the northern part of the Big Bend country a heavy snow fell, destroying all crops not harvested. Grain buyers say the damage to crops from the rain and snow will reach $2,500,000, but they estimate that the shipment from tho state will reach 10,000,000 bushels, which is about the same as last year. In northern Idaho and Washington Saturday night about 4 inches of snow fell. DISASTROUS FIRE. Twenty-Six lliisitu*.* Houses Dostroyed at Parkersburg, la. Pa! las Executed. Barcelona, Oct 7.—Fallas, ’he anarchist who, September 24, made an attempt on the life of Capt. Gen. Martinex Campos by hurling two dynamite bombs at that oflieer, was shot in accordance with the sentence of the courtmartial before which he was tried. Tho prisoner refused to kneel when sentence was pronounced, but he consented to sign a copy of his sentence, at the same time exclaiming that he was signing the death warrant of his judges, feeling certain that his brother anarchists would avenge his death by killing those who had condemned him to die.

Fassmore, for the murder of Richard Paxton on October 5, 1887, returned a verdict Saturday morning for acquittal, after being out less than half an hour. This is the fifteenth court that has passed on the ease. At the first trial tho jury stood seven for capital punishment, j four for life imprisonment and one for !

acquittal, and they have been growing w h°'e less satisfactory than it was a week ago more lenient in every conn since Tho Steel billets arc selllnf? at Pittsburgh for $18

J per ton aAd there is practically no demand

W2W Yokk, Oct y. —R. G. Dun ifc Co.’s weekly review of trade says: It is difficult to detect any si^ns of improvement. While there has been some addition to the number of manufacturing establishments and the number of hands at work during the last week, it is becoming painfully clear that the orders obtained do not suffice to keep employed at full time even the limited force at present engaged. The business transacted is still far below that of last year in volume, In railroad earnings the decrease being 10.6 per cent in spite of large world’s fair business, and in payments through the principal zclenrlng houses outside New York the decrease is 26 per |

cent

Reports from other cities disclose a distinct check in business. There is on the whole less activity and less confidence regarding the fu ture than there was a week ago. While the volume of all kinds of money in circulation has increased 121,577,217 during tho month of September, and is now greater by almost 110,000.000 than it was last year, the embarrassment is now, as it has been all the time, due to a lack of confidence rather than to a lack of currency. Industrial Improvement Slow. There is not such encouragement as might be desired in the industrial reports for the week. In almost every department orders are found too small to keep the restricted working force fully employed. Many concerns are work- i ing short time, while the general reduction in wages also affects the purchasing power of the millions who still have work. An lAcrcased number of establishments is reported in operation, but the sagging of ! prices in print cloths and some other cotton i goods, and in the most important products of iron and steel, discloses greatly discarded busi-

ness.

Struck by a Locomotive. Jacksonville, 111., Oct. 10.—Monday morning two deaf and dumb girls, Miss Etta Gunn and Miss Josephine Dresser, were walking along on the railroad near Bluffs, a little place west of this city. It was about time for the train, but they did not know and the engine was upon them before they realized it. Miss Dresser tried to drag her friend from the track, but it was too late and Miss Gunn w'as killed, while Miss Dresser was fatally injured. Twenty-Two Drowned. San Francisco, Oct. 11.—Advices brought by the steamer Rio de Janeiro state that a sailing vessel, the Sinyo Maru, was wrecked off the coast of Japan September 4. Twenty-two out of twenty-eight passengers were drowned.

At tho west rather more activity Is reported at several cities, notably Chicago, St. Louis, Cleveland, Duluth, St Paul and Kansas City. Lumber 1* generally higher In price. The demand for cattle and hogs has also improved. From the east reports are less favorable, except from Baltimore, where Increased sales arc reported. The dry good* demand is below the

average at Boston and Philadelphia.

Statistics ol Failures.

Failures continue to decrease in numbers and importance, though not a* much as has been hoped. The number reported in the United States during tho last week has been 320, against 184 for the same week last year, and in 45, against 3J last year. During tho first half of the year the failures were in amount of liabilities $168,920 830, so that the aggregate, not including banking and financial failures, has been not more than 8251,340,879.
