before many years art over, a source of widespread disaster to purchasers under if. According to Archbishop Walsh's views, foreign competition is not at all the sole cause of the ruinous fall in the prices of agricultural products. The main cause, ho believes, is the continuous rise in the -value of gold. "What a prospect It is." he added, "lor the Irish tenant whose judicial rents are fixed for fifteen years, or the tenants with annual purchase payments extending over forty-nine years, that gold has risen . per cent, in value within the last hf teen years, and must continue to oppredate if the present system is maintained." The Archbishop concluded by expressing the hope that tho conference at Brussels would succeed in solving the monetary problem. Toller's Pessimistic Views. Special to tr.e Indianapolis JonrnaL Chicago, Nor. Senator Henry II. Teller, of Colorado, arrived at the Grand Paciiio to-day. and left for Washington an hour later. The Senator, in speaking of the monetary conference, said: "I do not expect it will have any immediate ettect upon the question of free silver. It may eventually lead to something through repeated gatherings of a like nature or diplomatic relations, bat for the present it will do nothing, exoept, perhaps, awaken the publio to the importance of the subject. One thing 1 am certain of is this: Kothiobild'e nlan will never solve the problem which every country will have to face if the present methods be persevered in. This plan, as 1 understand, is to nave the different governments represented in the conference form themselves into an association for the purchase of a minimum amount of silver at 4'i pence per ounce. That will not settle the question. The only remedy is free coinage, and there is no good reason why free coinage should not be brought into existence. Every thinking man can see that publio sentiment is changing with regard to the subject. One day or other a freelilver bill must be patsed." BTAKVDiG IN FKEE-TBADE ENGLAND.

rive Souls rerlih for Want of Food Iro- ' cessions for Unemployed. London, Nov. 23. It seems scarcely worth while to burden the eable by narrating events so common as the starving to death here of several people, hut the report of one day's suffering may be worth something as a comment upon the unconscious cruelty o2 great cities. Last Wednesday five souls died of hunger in the heart of London. A newly made widow with her babe of eleven weeks died beeanse she was unable to feed it. A dock laborer's infant died two hours after its birth. Tho entire family were in ft condition of semi-starvation. An neglected unknown man died after having eaten a free breakfast at a charitable institution, but the saddest of all was that of a German tutor, knowing several language?, who was found dying on a doorstep from illness Induced by sheer neglect and starvation. It is only by accident that thin list of a single day's starvations became. known, audit is to inako such suffering public that processions of unemployed and hungry people are now being organized. The Salvation Army is arranging for a parade of J 0,000 men who are to walk barefooted through tho streets of the metropolis, while another association is arranging a midnight parade through the principal thorcgMaxea.

In attempting to leck his gun the President elect hurt his thumb. The wound is not the least serious, but quite painful. Shortly after noon Mr. Cleveland took a stroll on the beach, and afterwards quietly re mained in-doors, devoting his attention to reading and writing. Extensive preparations for gunning have been made for to-morrow. A scow with broad ends has been litted up as a floating blind. Sedge and eel grashas been nailed around the top. Everything in the boat has been arranged with a view to Mr. Cleveland's comfort. The scow will bo towed to Peter's channel, four miles from the channel, where it is expected to spend the entire day ducking. Mr. Cleveland did not desire to try shooting again in a small boat.

Woostkr, O., Nov. 23. Born of Christian parents, his father a Methodist minister. and raised as tenderly as a potted plant, was a young man who left this country in 188. He took up his residence in Missouri, where he studied and practiced medicine. The last heard of him by his parents was early in the civil war, when he married the daughter of. Senator Climer, of Missouri. He has long been mourned as dead, but sow comes word that be is still living, and tills the cell of a convlit in the far-off State of Texas. This, too, after having been preacher and doctor and, by his own confession, a member of the Younger brothers' gang of desperadoes and an associate of Frank and Jesse James. Such, in brief, is the history of Kev. William Wilson. Tho information which came to relatives hero from Waco, Tex., is to the efteot that he had been preaching near that city when he borrowed a horse from a neighbor, F. H. Sapp, and sold it to a policeman named James Hall. He was arrested and entered apleaot guilty. Before being sentenced he made an affecting plea for mercy, but was given the full extent of the law. It had long been reported that he served with the Younger brothers in tbeirexploits, and to Sheriff Ford he confessed that, under the name of Robert Shepherd, he had been an othcer in the Younger brothers gang. In his confession, he said: "1 was born in Wayne county, Ohio, in 1835, and am ufty-four years old. My father was Rev. T. 8. Wilson, a minister br note. I moved to Missouri in l&8and married Miss Mary Climer. daughter of Senator Climer 1 had received a liberal education aud for the tirst few years taught school. The war broke out and I enlisted in the Second Kentucky Cavalry. I served with Gen. John H. Morgan until his capture, and was with him when he was taken, but escaped, and was sent aftewards by President Davis as a secret agent of the confederate government to Northern States. My mission being suspected. I was thrown into Frison, and when 1 returned to Kentucky found my house in ashes and my wifo and children dead. It was then I met the Youngers. They befriended me, and 1 afterward joined their peculiar band.. They gave me the secretaryship of their association. While I was with the Youngers I met Frank and Jesse James. I grow remorseful and left the Youngers, settling in Buchanan county. Missouri, where 1 was ordained a minister of the Christian Church. While preaching and practicing medicine I got caught iu a tornado, and was crippled. I then took to drink, but reformed and came to Texas. I was en if aged in preaching at and about Eddy when, during afire. I sold the horse I got from Mr. JSo pp. the policeman, and you know the rest." Death, of an Oatot, IVho Was Once Weal thy. St. Locis, Nov. 2S. On a slab at the morgue lies tho lifeless form of James B. Dow, who, at one time was a wealthy and highly-respected citizen of Boston, Mass., but when death checked bis career was a social outcast and almost a pauper. The body was found late yesterday in the Erie House, at No. C1C Market street, a resort frequented by the commonest laborers. Whether death had been due to natural causes, or whether the man had taken bis own life, remains for the coroner to ascertain at the inquest. 4 Everything points to suicide. , A pint bottle half full of some unknown white liquor was found in the room, and it is supposed to be poison. Dow came to the Erie liouso Saturday afternoon and engaged a'room, paying for one night in advance. He carried a small satchel, and left it in the apartment selected by .him. The next rive hours he spent wandering around the city in the vicinity of the hotel. About 6 o'clock he returned and proceeded directly to his room. He was not sen alive again. Yesterday Mary Donnely, a chambermaid, went to the room to clean it. The door was lcoked, and knocking failed td arouse the inmate. Becoming alarmed she summoned tho proprietor. James Shivey, and be climbed through a transom, and, looking around the room, saw the form of Dow on the bed, lying perfectly motionless. The face bore a fixed expression of pam and agony. The man was but half attired, and from appearanoes seemed to bo dead. Numerous letters found in the satchel show him to have been at one time a wealthy citizen ot Boston. Besides personal letters there are numerous legal documents and a few pawn tickets. Among other letters aro come written in a neat, email female hsmd, undoubtedly by some young lady, who. at the time they were written, just after the close of the war, .resided in Boston. , They are full of love, and in them Dow was addressed as "My own darling Jim," and they end up with "Your own loving Birdie." A faded, iinely-woven linen handkerchief, trimmed on the edges with tine lace, yellow with age, found in one of the love epistles, is probably all'Jira" bad to remember his "Birdie" by. 'He had kept it for years. In another of the letters was a lock of golden hair, tied with a faded pink ribbon. Later A post-mortem examination on Dow'a body shows death was caused by softening of the liver, and not by aDy poison. ' . v DISGUSTED THEORISTS.

Ihere are two hundred bal loons and nbout fifteen tons of Roselyte to be discharged, and the indications to-night are for a good rain to-morrow. Farwell Indorses Another Scheme. CniCAGO, Nov. 2S. Ex-Senator Farwell, who is enthusiastioovor the accounts of his friend's (General Dyrenfurth's)rain-making experiments in Texas, said this afternoon: "I am more interested in the plans of Louis .Gathman. the Chicago inventor, who has. 1 think, found a more certain and ready method of producing rain than by the explosion of Roselyte or dynamite. He releases liquid carbolic acid gas at a high altitude. The intense cold produced is bound to precipitate whatever moisture there may be in tho air." Business Embarrassments. Cleveland, O..

TAME SPORT 'IN THE RING The Gresgains-Costello Fiqht at Coney Island a LoDg-Drawn-Out Affair. . Though the "Buffalo Was Repeatedly Knocked Down He Held Oat Till the Eightieth Eouud When a Draw Was Declared. Pprclal to the Indianapolis JoarnaL Coney Island, Nov. 2S. The GreggainsCoitello light to-night was a long-drawn-oat affair. After a threatening morning the rain came down all afternoon, and many persons who would have liked to see the "mill" remained away. All the same there was a good crowd present The fighters in the prinoipal affair of the evening were Martin Costello, of Buflalo, and Alexander Ureggaim. of San Francisco. The men scaled at 15G pounds. Greggains, who is twenty-six years of age and several years tho junior of Costello, had much the best of his antagonist in height and reach, tho advantage that helped him defeat Turner, Billy McCarthy and La Blanche, the Marino. Greggains's eeoonds were Martin Murphy, of San Francisco; Johnny Mnrphy, of Boston, and Howey Hodgkins. of Boston; Mike Cooney, of Boston, timer. Costello's seconds were Billy Delaney, Corbett's trainer, Joe Choynski aud Jimmy Carroll; Jack Sheehan, time-keener. Johnnie Kckhardt was releree. It was awfully slow for twenty rounds. Apart from a knock-down by Greggains in the ninth and first blood for Costellu in the fifth, no damage was done. It was more of a sparring exhibition than a light. Each seemed to be afraid . of the ' other, and each stood away. The crowd remained good natured and stood It all. From the twentieth to the twenth-sixth rouud Greggains did some jabbing with bis left on Costello's neck and the Buflalo man's returns with left and right were cleverly dodged. It was a tiresome exhibition. The twenty-eighth rouud was the liveliest so far. in that Costello undertook to force matters and rushed, only to meet three still' left-band jabs, under one of which ho twisted his legs and fell to the lloor. Costello landed one good left-hander on tbe breast in this round. Greggains landed a right on the neck in hard style in the twenty-ninth round, and Costello had to run away to avoid a repetition. In the thirty-seventh round Greggains again knocked Costello down by a right-bander on tbe neclr Costello took his time getting up, and then sailed in to the Californian. He got In five stitl punches, two on the body, two on tbe face and one on the ueck, before he stopped. Tho next interesting round ,was the fortieth, when Costello opened proceedings by a couple of solid rushes, and half a dozen beautiful cracks on Greggains's mouth. Two lively rallies followed, in one of which "Buffalo" found himself on the lloor from a left-hander on the jaw. Greggains followed it up with two crushers on the breast and Costello returned aright smash on the the month. Greggains was now bleeding freely about the face, but was still in his bead, and had a determined look in his eyes. His determination petered out in the forty-first ronnd. and be did not strike a blow. The crowd advised "Buffalo" to "besp straight at that nose, and you're all right." A hundred or more persons left the hall ' at the end of tbe forty-sixth round. "Greggains can't hit bard enough to pat that man out," they said.
