posed of as proposed row by reference to a committee, and acted on when reported. THE PURITAN AND PLACKLFG. Mr. Pendleton of West Virginia said Russia is a government perfectly capable of taking care of its own people. There is no responsibility resting npon the United States to relieve any distress in the country, for the friendship between the United States and Kussia is like that between a Puritan and a blacfcleg. This majority, elected on a platform of retrenchment and reform, ought not to pass a resolution appropriating $100,000 or any other Bum for such a purpose. Mr. fctone of Kentucky being informed that unanimous consent was necessary to enable the committee to report at any time, formally objected to reference with such power. Mr. Herbert then moved that the resolution be referred to the committee on naval a flairs, with instructions to report within ten days. Mr. Blount protested against this reference, for it meant indefinite delay. The House must decide whether or not it will consider this question to-day. T hope," ho said, "that the centlemen who make the overwhelming majority in this House for the Democratic party will rise and vindicate the American people by prompt action as thfcirlathers would have acted and have acted Webster, Clay and the long list of names that are honored in the history of our country." On Mr. Herbert's motion, a division being called for, as announced by the Speaker pro tf in., the yeas were 70; nays, 90. Mr. Herbert asked for tellers, but the demand was refused. Mr. Blount then moved that the House proceed to consideration of the joint resolution. Upon suggestion of Mr. Holm An the resolution was considered in the House as in committee of the whole, and be moved to strike out the clause appropriating 100.000 to carry out the purposes of the joint resolution. In support of his motion. Mr. Holrusn said tnat he thought it would be hardly proper for the United States to pay for transporting the gTain and provisions to snch a great country as Russia. She probably would not want os to do so. Mr. Boutelle Do yon want Jones to pay the freight? Mr. Herbert said he would address himself to Democrats; he did not expect any one responsible for the billion-dollar appropriations of last Congress to vote for Mr. iiolman's amendment, but Democrats ought to consider well before they vote for an appropriation of $100,000 at the threshold of this Congress. Mr. Breckinridge of Kentucky made an eloquent appeal lor the House to do this act in a gracious manner, not niggardly, as becomes a great nation. He was willing to follow Democratic precedent in voting this money. DOCKERY PLEADS POVERTY. Mr. Dockery of Missouri said Democrats whoso seats were filled by the plea of retrenchment and reform should take into consideration the condition of the treasury before they ote to spend $100,000 of the public money for the purposes proposed. The current receipts, Mr. Dockery said, do not meet current expenses. Sixty-five million dollars of appropriations for the past year have not been paid; $23,000,000 of debt line Sept. 1 has been refunded because there Was no money to meet it; the sinking fund lias been suspended during the oast year. and the administration is face to face with debt of $140.000,000 due and unDaid. against which there is available only 520,000,000 in the treasury. That being the case. Democrats should refrain from voting for the appropriation. Mr. Morse of Massachusetts ofiered an amendment expressing the sense of the government of the United States that in the distribution of the proposed food donations so discrimination be made against the Jews, lie referred to the oppression nnd rrnelty practiced upon the Jews in Ivussia, mentioning particularly the passage of a law by which Jewish women, under official ban, might be removed therefrom by taking out a license as women of the town. A government which passed euch a darn Dab! law as that ought to be notified that this government will not agree to send relief if it makes discrimination against any class of its people in distributing the charity. Mr. Chipman of Michigan opposed the resolution on the ground that the Russian government was outlawed from the comity that should exist between nations by her treatment of the Poles and Jows. Mr. Butler of Iowa said he was opposed to the resolution. He gloried in the fact that he came from a part of the country which contributed the supplies. He was in favor of charity, but did not believe it to be charity to take out of another's pocket the money that goes to make it. Xs'o one of the states which contributed these supplies had spoken in favor of paying for their transportation out of the public treasury. He did not bellevethat it ought to be done, and, therefoie, was opposed to the joint resolution. Mr. Blount made the point against Mr. Worse's amendment that it was not germane, because it was proposed to direct how certain contributions, made by the people of the Northwest for a certain purpose, shall be disposed of on their arrival at destination. To make such a declaration as is proposed is calculated to disturb the relations between this country and Itussia. and to interrupt our commercial Intercourse with the people of that country. MR. MORSE GROWS INDIGNANT. Mr. Morse, rising to reply to Mr. Blount, as met with cries of "Withdraw the amendment.'' He said: "I will not withdraw it, and if it is voted down 1 will vote against the resolution. The gentleman from Georgia has characterized my amendment as 'mean'; if he will lind anything as mean as some of the laws passed by the Czar's government against the five million Ivussian Jews, 1 would like to know what It is." Mr. Morse said that ho could not see what there was in the amendment that authorized the gentleman trom Georgia to characterize it as an insult to Russia. Mr. Lind ot Minnesota said Mr. Morse Jiad proposed an amendment which was not only an insult to Knssia, but to the people of Minnesota as well. We make no distinction in our gift if a man is hucgry ve want to feed him, and preach to him by that act. As to the resolution, itself Mr. Lind said he felt, as was so well expressed by Mr. Breckinridge, that no gentleman will send a gift to another with the express charges "collect on delivery." If you have not the money to forward this gift, e.iy so. and the people of the country which cave it will see that it reaches its destination. Mr. Morse's amendment was rejected on a viva voce vote. Vhe question then recurred to Mr. Holman's amendment to strike out the appropriation carried by the resolution. Mr. Blount defended the amendment, and Mr. Boutelle made some remarks on the capacity of the Navy Department to transport the cereals contributed. He said the United states had not a single transport ship, and freight could not be carried on a modern war vessel. Mr. Warner of New York opposed the amend rue nt on the ground that if adopted it would have the ctiect of delaying the arrival of the relief until tho green grass of next year shall have grown over tho graves of those for whom it 1 intended. After further remarks the previous question was moved by Mr. Blount, and sec ouded by the House. The amendment of Mr. Holman to strike out tho appropriation was voted on by division yeas, 133; nays, to. Mr. Boutelle demanded the yeas and nays, but the point was raised that this could not ha had in committee of the whole, vvliich tho Speaker pro teai. sustained. Mr. Boutelle suggested that it was as competent to call for the yeas and nays as to move theprevionsquestion in committee of the whole, and Mr. Breckinridge of Kentucky recalled the fact thatthe right to demand the yens and nays is a constitutional one. whereupon tho Speaker pro tem.. with much pleasure, reversed his former rulins and pnt the demand for yeas and nays before the House. It was seconded by 5, a suflicieut number, and the roll was called. The vote resulted yeas. 16C; nays, 70. The amendment was declared adopted, and Mr. Breckinridge moved to postpone it indefinitely, the amendment having emasculated it. He said we have no shins in the navy to nse. and cutting oil' the appropriation makes the resolution worthless. The vote was declared to be 83 to C5, and Mr. Dickerson of Kentucky asked for tbe yeas and nays, but the dmand was relused. Mr. Blount then asked a vote by tellers, and it was taken, Messrs. Blount and Breckinridge acting as tellers. They gave the vote as. yean. U3; nays. 87. The resolution was therefore indefinitely postponed. The House then, at 4:'5, adjourned aatil 12 coon to-morro v

HENRY IRYING'S CALAMITY

Bis Gifted Son Lawrence Shoots Himself After a Rehearsal in Belfast, The Yonog Tragedian Consumed with Jealcuaj of His Father's FameThe Russian FamineRiot at Pernambnco. YOUNG IRVING SHOOTS HIMSELF. Attempted Suicide by the Ambitions Son of the Great Tragedian. Frecial to Uie Inrtianapolis Journal London-. Jan. 6. Henry Irvine had hardly finished reading in the morning newspapers to-day the critics' praise of his triumph at the Lyceum last night, when he was summoued irom glory to misery by the news of the attempted suicide of his second son, Lawrence, who was recently a member of Benson's Shakspeare Touring Company. He was a capable actor, but labored under the disadvantage of comparison with his father, whom he does not nearly approach in ability. It is said that he sometimes complained of this, bat nobody took his remarkb as more than an expression of opinion or concluded they were a deepseated sense of wrong. The young man is known to have aspired to be a great ShaksDearean actor, a rival, if not a superior, to his parent. Ho labored hard to improve himself, and in this way probably overworked his brain. The Benson company opened at Belfast on Monday. This afternoon young Irving atteuded a rehearsal of the ".Merchant of Venice." He was well up in his part, and. it was noticed that he put more than usual energy into his lines. Bnt he gave no evidence whatever of disturbance of mind. After the rehearsal he went back to his lodgings and retired to his bedroom, closing the door. Other actors of tho Benson company were lodging at the same place, and one of them was in a room just below at the time Irving retired. The fellow-actor heard a pistol shot in the direction of Irvine's room, but he took little notice of the noise at tirst, thinking that Irving, or some one else near by. was goin? through a private rehearsal in a part that involved the discharge of a firearm. With this idea the incident passed from his mind. A moment later his attention was arrested by a curious, horrible sound that made his cheek blanch and his flesh creep. It was like the groan of a dying man, and there was no acting about It. The actor rushed up-stairs into Irving' room. Across the bed lay the young tragedian, twisting in agony and uttering the sound that bad penetrated to the room of his associate. Blood was streaming from a bullet wound in the right breast, and a pistol on the floor with the barrel still warm and a curl of smoke floating near the ceiling, told what a deed had been done. The covering on the bed was already deeply soaked with blood, and Irving'a life was fast ebbing away. His fellow-actor asked no questions, but hastened for relief. Surgeon Fagan speedily arrived and administered restoratives, at tho same time taking care to stop the flow of blood. Prof. Sinclair was also called in, and an attempt was made to get the bullet, but the-probe failed to reach it -It was found that the ball had penetrated the epex of the lung. At last accounts Irving was in a most critical condition, but the Professor and Surgeon Fagan have not given op hope of saving his life. The news of his son's attempted suicide did not reach Irving nntil the play bad already commenced at the Lyceum this evening. The actor retained his composure remarkably, and determined to proceed. He even kept the contents of the telegram to himself, and the officials of the theater were unaware of the news that he had received. It is cow said that he put more pathos than before in the lines of the fallen jd broken-hearted cardinal, and that his face bore an expression of pain that was something more than an effort of the actor in a play. TIIE RUSSIAN FAMINE. Inadequate Measures of Relief Starring; Germans Attacked by Mobs of Fanatics. L05DOX, Jan. C A correspondent making a tour of the famine districts of Toula, Russia, writes: 'The wealthier land-owners keep away from their estates, leaving the entire burden of helping the shiftless peasantry upon the poorer gentry, who are little better off than the starving. Careful lists that have been prepared of the stores of each family show many instances where a peasant with six children has only 180 poods of grain to last through the winter. There is a general fear that the famine will recur, leaving Kussia in a state of national bankruptcy. In the meantime aid from the Zemstvoes is visionary. The chief relief power is placed in the Ilea Cross Society. At tho first meeting of the local branch of the societv it was disclosed that only the sum of 110 had been subscribed for a district having eiahty-three thousand population verging on starvation. Many million roubles have gone into the coffers of the central committees of the society in St. Petersburg and Moscow, and nobody knows how the money has been expended." The pastors of a number of German colonies in Kussia have appealed direct to the German consulato in tit. Petersburg for assistance to prevent thousands of Germans from starving. It is said that they not only sufler from the famine, but are exposed to cruelties from fanatie mobs, who accuse them of being responsible, through speculating in land, for the failure of the crops. Several Germans have been killed and their houses burned, it is said. Advices received here from Cracow. Russian Poland, show that reports received there from various places along the frontier contradict the statements which have been made concerning the military preparations of Kussia. It is said that the movements of troops along the frontier have ceased. Dispatches from Warsaw state that the public interest in that city is centered in the famine. Nihilistic proclamations have been discovered among the troops in Poland. A number of non-commissioned officers who were stationed at Kadom and Lublin have been sent to the St. Petersburg prison for circulating nihilistic manifestoes. According to iho Warsaw dispatch the mortality among the troops in the western provinces is heavy. The government finds difficulty in supply, ing them with an adequate quantity of provisions. Advices from St. Petersburg received in this city show that tho Czar is either willfully blind to the situation of at'.uirs in bis empire or that the true condition of the peasants had been kept from his knowledge. Reports have reached this city that his Majesty has heretofore stated that no wide-spread famine exists in his dominions, ana that sufferings of the poor are duo entirely to a partial failure of the crops, which the government finds no trouble iu making up from the stocks in the provinces where the crops were not affected. The latest instance of his Majesty's opinion on the subject was given at a recent review of the emonoflsKy regiment of guards. The officers of this regiment, moved by the stories of destitution and distress which had reached them, started a subscription which they intended to devote to the relief of the famine sufferers. It was necessary for them to get the Czar's sanction for the distribution of the money thus raised, and tho colonel of the regiment, on the occasion of the review, begged 'the Czar to give the desired permission, before the colonel could finish his appeal, however, he was interrupted by the f 'zar. who nngrily exclaimed: "There are starving people in my empire: there is .nly some suffering due to & bad harvest. 1 he measures taken by the government will preserve them from famine." i'hazrined at the abrupt refusal of the Cnr. the colonel retired and reported the result of his interview to his fellow-officers. The remarks made by his Majesty have been keenly discussed in army society. Will Welcome All from America, St. Paul, Jan. C Governor Merriam yesterday received a cablegram from Charles Emory Smith, minister to Kussia, which is sufficient to show that tbre ia widespread

suffering in Russia, which ought to be relieved. Minister Smith says: "The distress in Russia from short crops is widespread and severe. It is difficult to overdraw the extent of suffering. Mauy provinces aw destitute and must bo helped until next harvest. 1 hid able to say that the propored contributions of Minnesota and tho Northwest will bo accepted with most grateful appreciation." REVOLT AT l'EILNAMDCCO.

Thirty Citizens Killed and Many Wounded In a Fight with Gorernment Troops. New York. Jan. C The United States and Brazil steamship Zeguranca, which arrived at quarantine this morning from Brazilian ports, brings a terrible story of suffering and death, both from yellow fever at Santos and bullets at Pernambnco, Brazil. An epidemio of yellow fever with a terribly high rato of mortality has been raizing at Santos for some time. The Zeguranca brings the first information of a bloody encounter between the government troops and the people of Pernambnco, in which a number of lives were lost. On Dec 17 the government sent a military governor to Pernambnco to replace the former governor of that place. The people regarded this as an act of tyranny and oppression. When the military governor appeared on Dec. 0, surronuded by troops, the revolutionary feelingof the people broke loose, and the storm was soon raging. The soldiers endeavored to disperse the citizens, and were pelted with stones and other missiles. The order then came to tire on the people, and at the first volley a dozen citizens fell dead, while a number were wounded. The revolutionists gave way, but quickly gathered renewed courage and ? re pared to make a desperate resistance, 'he troops charged upon and drove them from street to street, many of the citizens falling, pierced by bayonets or bullets. A pitched battle took place on one of the plazas, and the dm of musketry, coupled with the cries of the wounded and dying, filled the air. The citizens stubbornly resisted, bnt the soldiers were too much for them. When the tumult finally subsided at the scene of carnago and bloodshed it was found thirty Lad' been killed outright and seventy-five or one hundred wounded. GENERAL FOREIGN NEWS. Swindling American Gold Mining Company' to be Inrestigated. London, Jan. 6. The baukrnptcy court has ordered a strict inquiry to be made into the formation and the whole history of the United States Gold Placer Company, which concern recently failed in a manner most disastrous to numerous persons who had invested In its securities. The company was formed in 1&S6, for the object, as stated in the prospectus, of acquiring the Cotton-wood placers, comprising eight hundred acres of auriferous grayel on the banks of the river San Miguel in Colorado. The prospectus gave out every reason to expect yearly profits of 148,000 on a capital investiment of 150.000. divided among C50 holders. It is now alleged that the scheme was from its conception a shameful swindle, and it is hoped that the managers have left some loophole open through which the law can reach them, even if it cannot reach the money which went into their pockets from those ot too confiding investors. Salisbury Wishes to Arold War. Liverpool, Jan. 6. Bir George Baden Powell, a member of the British Behring Sea Commission who, at Lord Salisbury's request, will start for Washington on Saturday next, says that Lord Salisbury told him that he Salisbury wanted to avoid war with the United States, but at tbe same time he wanted to be strong and to show that he was not going to yield a jot of British rights. Sir George said he thought Lord Salisbury bad finally brought an awkward dispute, which might have resulted in war, to arbitration, and it was his conviction that England would win in arbitration. Tho British commissioners, he declared, had made important investigations, bnt the friendliness they had established with the Americans and Russians would, yet bear fruit. All right thinking men in England and America, Sir Georsre added, will be dejighted to find a serious bone of contention removed. Urged to Hojcott Jewish Bakers. Vienna, Jan.

GARZA'S MEN AGAIN ROUTED

Fight on tbe liio Grande in Which Americans Assisted Mexican Troops. One Rebel Killed and Another Captnrsd Reported Release cf Prisoners Garza Followins: in the Footsteps of President Diaz. PUT TO PLIGHT AGAIN. Garza's Men Attacked by Mexican Troops Assisted by American Soldiers. Laredo, Tex., Jan. 6.A telegram received late this evening from GeneralKeyes, commander of tbe Mexican troops now operating on this border against the Garza revolutionists, states that a considerable engagement took place yesterday evening between the United States troops -and a band of Garza's troops at the La Joya Crossing on the Rio Grande, in which the Garza men were pnt to flight, leaving a number of horses and arms in possession of the United States forces. The fight took place on tbe bank of the river, and two of the Pandits jumped into tho river to make their escape. One of them was shot and tbe otner taken prisoner by the Mexican . troops, who had moved along the river front, on the Mexican side, in conjunction with the United States forces. A later telegram from General Reyes says that a report had reached his headquarters that a detachment of American cavalry, escorting a lot of captured Garza men to Brownsville for trial by the United 8tates Court, were attacked by a company of Garza men below Edinburg, and the prisoners rescued. General Stanley sent the following dispatch to General Schotield last night: "Captain Bourke. at prevent before the United States District Court at Brownsville, telegraphs: 'On mylway here with Leongerda 1 tried to get information from him as to the people behind this Garza business, who were supplying ammunition and other war material but he was much of the time under the inlluence of morphine. He told me some things that may be of value, giving names of persons. Garza left Los Angeles with 271 men. He did not wait for all who were to come, but probably hurried trom the fact that the Texas Rangers and Hardie knew of his whereabouts. The day Leongerda was captured there were still about 200 in the band, but they were beginning to scatter. Garza is said to be very despondent since the troops and rangers have begun to stir him np Leongerda has been turned overto tbe civil authorities. In this connection my former application for funds from the Department of justice for employment of deputy marshals is renewed." GARZA'S PRETENSIONS. The Latest Mexican Revolutionist Following In the Footsteps of President Diaz. Eagle Pass, Tex., Jan. C So ranch has been written as to the gravity of the Garza affair and such diverse opinions offered as to the importance which may jnstly be attached to the matter that very few who havo carefully perused the daily papers are able to form an intelligent opinion of the situation. President Diaz, the present incumbent, attained his present position through precisely tbe same methods with which Garza now undertakes his overthrow. The same plea was put forth by both Diaz and Garza that tbe Constitution was being violated and the country was in danger of relapsinginto dictatorship. Diaz met with the same paltry support at the beginning that Garza has received and, like Garza, sought an asvlum in Texas when pressed by the federal autborities of Mexico. Diaz, like Garza, also inaugurated bis movement" in Matamoras. the hot bed of nearly every Mexican revolution. Both have proclaimed most lofty sentiments of patriotic devotion to the country in pronunciamentos and the difference in the two men is not in methods nor the sentiments they Eroclaimed. but in their prominence. Diuz ad already achieved fame as a military general, and had the confidence of his followers. Uarza is an nnknown editor of a fiery little country paper, and outside of a limited circle of subscribers is an entire stranger to tbe people whom bo now strives to lead into what. If successfully inaugurated, will be the most bloody of all Mexican revolutions. The dissatisfied element in Mexico consists of three classes: Ambitious leaders who have failed to receive a portion of the official emoluments, and who, under the amended Constitution, which permits the re-election of the chief executive for an indefinite number of terms, see no hope for the future under the present state of affairs. These individuals embrace tho most dangerous element of the Kepnblic, being educatod and influential, and some at least possessed of enormous wealth. Next are the people of tbe middle classes, who have at all times borne the burden of government. Tbe facilities of travel which railroads have afforded have placed them in possession of facts which the benefits of free government vouchsafe to its inhabitants, and they are beginning to grow discontented with tbeir lot The third and most formidable class of enemies of the administration is the clerical or church party of Mexico. Since the patriot Juarez dissolved tbe union of tbe church and state, and confiscated all ecclesiastical property, and devoted the proceeds to tbe state the most bitter enmity toward the government has always been exhibited. On divers occasions the clerical party has attempted to override the law and reassert its power, but the iron hand of Diaz has warned them with unmistakeable significance that no such interference would be tolerated In tbe reform which Juarez inaugurated. Danger most serious to the Diaz government rests here. Priests have tbe ear of the poorer people, and to arouse their zeal and enlist them in religious warfare would not be such a difficult matter. The Protestant religion and free masonry are both making rapid headway in Mexico, and both are regarded as dangerous enemies by the leaders of the clerical party. If this faction is behind tho Garza movement trouble may be anticipated. From the American stand-point, and ono which may be considered highly important in view of the heavy investment of American capital in Mexico. Diaz or a man with his policy is much to be preferred. His broad-minded, liberal spirit in dealing with Americans and American enterprises has won for him tbe regard and esteem of all who have attempted to do business in Mexico. This spirit of liberality in the treatment of Americans has made many enemies for President Diaz in that class who hate tho name of America and who would, if in power, drive every Gringo" invader from Mexican soil. The clerical party also views, with ill-concealed displeasure his protection of other religions sects, and is joined in sympathy with other haters of Americans, whose ideas of religious liberty are so much at variance with theirs. No one disputes that tbe oppressions and tyrranies of which the people complain are common, but they may be considered well-nigh incurable, being rooted in the people themselves, and it is extremely doubtful, even thouah the revolutionists should be successful in tbeir attempt to overthrow the present government, if a better one could be established in its place. One of Garza's Friends Talk. Dallas, Tex.. Jan. C E. G. Meyers, of this city, an intimate friend of Garza, the Mexican revolutionist, says: T first met Garza in a business way, and sold him paper and material to publish two papers at Polito Blanco, a town on the Rio Grande. I afterward' was bis guest on several occasions. He is a perfect specimen of Castilian manhood and stands six feet three m his stocking feet and is as brave and courageous as a lion. The spirit of rebellion has been brewingforseveral years and it is from a desire of a large majority of Mexicans to see . Mexico a free republic that Garza has directed his campaign against the Diaz administration, and not trom religions , motives. Last spring

Dr. Ignacio Martinez, editor of El Nutndo, at Laredo, was murdered by a spy of tho Mexican government because he had in hand the manuscript ot an expose of tbe corruptness of many otttcials of tho government. After tbe killing of Martinez his widow forwarded tbe copy to Gara at Polito Blanco. He printed five thousand copies of two hundred pages and distributed them throughout Mexico at tf each, paid by the enemies of. the Diaz administration. His papers and books were sent through the Mexioan mail, all in single wrappers, printed, 'If not delivered in five days return to W. D. Cleveland fc Co.. Houston, Tex. and many other mercantile firms of this State. Thus they passed tbe mails unmolested, as they were taken for advertising matter, and bis work of organizing his rebel army progressed. Nothing can be further from the truth than the newspaper reports concerning Garza's movement. 1 am confident that he has not been on this side of tbe Bio Grande since he took up arms againgt his government. He has nothing but tbe warmest regard for Americans, and especially United States soldiers. He said to me: God first and Americans next, I love them both; they are my friends.1 If tbe man who killed the sergeant and wounded the lieutenant of tbe United States army recently were Garza'a men, they did it against his orders. Garza has at his command about three thousand men, and the support of tbe best people of Mexico. He receives money from officers drawing pay from the Mexican government President Diaz knows this, and that is tbe reason such a large reward has been offered for Garza's head, which will be obtained only when the Bio Grande flows with blood." FIVE MORE ARE LYNCHED

Neal Sifas, Two Other Men and Sob Sims's Two Daughters Hanged. Canght While Leaving Womack Uill on Their Way to Mississippi and All, Including the Girls, Strang Up by the Roadside. Mobile, Ala., Jan, C News comes late to-night from Womack Hill, Ala., the scene of the recent Sims outrage and hanging, that while Neal Sims, the brother of Bob, two other men and Laura and Beatrice Sims, the two daughters of Bob, were on their way from Womack Hill, last night, going in the direction of Leak, Miss., the rendezvous of the rest of the gang, they were met by a posse searching for Neal Sims, who is wanted for murder. It is said that Neal resisted arrest and was hanged and afterward shot; also that the rest of the party attempted to interfere in Neal's behalf and were strung up to an oak tree along the roadside, the women being among the number lynched. Great excitement is said to prevail. Trying to Lynch Iler Assailant. Lexington, Ky., Jan. 6. Mayor Barney Iliggins, of Somerset, was arrested this morning charged with enticing into a strange bouse Miss Vina Woods, the twenty-three-year old sister-in-law of E. V. Logan, deputy United States internal revenue collector. Miss Woods is at her sister's house in Somerset, a raving maniac, and an excited crowd is threatening to lynch her assailant. $10,000 STOLfiX. Office of the Wells-Fargo Express Company at Houston, Tex., Eotbed. Houston', Tex., Jan. C Last nigbt about 10:SO o'clock the branch office of the WellsFargo Express Company at the Grand Central Depot was robbed of four packages of money, to the amount of 810,000 or more. The exact sum is unobtainable on account of the reticence of the officials. The night clerK had received tbe money from messengers who had come in on the night train, and had placed it in the safe without locking it He stepped out for a moment througu one door and through one on the opposite side of the room a thief entered, getting the money and making his escape before tbe clerk returned. He was seen by one of the drivers to cross the street with tho money packages in bis arms, but be thought it was a bsggageman with letters. There is no other clew. War on Sunday Newspapers.

IIow an Illinois Parmer ltebnked the Frlands of Ills Deceased Wife. New York Adrertieer. Tbe chief feature of a church-yard in Clin ton county, Illinois, is a large marble tomb atone erected by farmer John Wise over the grave of hie wife. Tbe inscription is brief, conveying the information that tb tombstone was erected in memory of haraU Jane Wise, "who was talked to death by her friends." The deceased Mrs. Wise bad many friends and acquaintances, and thii inscription has Kiven them a great deal of pain. Delicate hints bave been conveyed to the bereaved husband that they did not recard themselves particularly flattered by it, and they would esteem it simple justice if he would remove it. Farmer Wise entertained strong "views on the matter himself, and he has abruptly broken oil' all negotiations. The aggrieved friends then organized themselves into a fcociety, the purpose of which was to remove the ollending tombstone. Mr. Wise beard of this and served formul notice on the members of the organization thatthe tomb stone had been erected by his order, paid for by his money, aud he would "till with lead'' any person who interfered with it in any way. The societj, organized Tor destruction, bas not been precipitous in that direction since learning that farmer Wiso was organized that way himself. Therefore, np to date the tombstone still stands, a memorial to the late Mrs. Wise and a rebuke to her friends, who, in imperishable marble, are accused of talking her to death. There is no doubt much justilication for the bitter inscription, hick persons uro too often the victims of over-sohcitious friends. While they may not often be literally "talked to death." there is nodonbt that recovery is frequently retarded by thoughtless persons turning the sick chamber into a reception-room, and making every day a reception day. At all events, farmer Wise, who is evidently a man of few words hiuv 6elf, takes this view of it. 4TS70HTTX A GUITiTCA A ntlX." STILL t ROLLING England, ia 1 the tat cf a great bus-1 mess.
