BRAZIL, Ind.. Aug. 3. General Manager Broughton. of the C. & E. I. railroad, arrived in the city to-day and ordered the company's divisional shops torn down and loaded preparatory to moving them to Momence. 111. A committee of thirty business men waited on Mr. Eroughton this afternoon and requested that the shops be allowed to remain. He answered that he was simply carrying out the instructions of the company, that the city and county authorities had refused the company protection here, and bitterly censured Sheriff Itlngo for apiearlng on the company's property when appealed to for protection, wearing the strikers' white ribbon, and when deputies were asked for he g-n-ore in trikers. He said that when the nonunion men appeared on the streets they were assaulted and driven out of the city. He censured the Mayor for fining a nonunion man for carrying a revolver when the pan's life waa threatened. He said the roarding houses and eating places here refused to feed the men. and the company thought it best to move the shops. The business men assured the company ample protection, and have called a law and order meeting" at the opera house tonisht to take steps in the matter. The company is tearing down the watch house. This evening a telegram was received from President Carpenter telling: the men to finish tearing down the building, and stating that future action depended on future conditions here. If the shops are moved it is said that the city will sue the company for fc.ij.ijix given the road when it was built here on the provision that shops should be maintained here.

HERE IS A PROBLEM

TWO IIISMANDS CI,III; THE SA.MH COHPSH IX CHICAGO. Doth .Men Identify the Deceased In Different Particular, but Coroner McIIale Can't Decide. CHICACIO, Aug 3. Two husbands claiming the body of a dead wife one identifying the remains by a photograph and the other seeking to establish his claim by describing every article found in her baggage, is the dilemma which now confronts Coroner McIIale, of this city. On April 17 a woman who reached Chicago over the Santa Fe road went direct to a cheap hotel. Five minutes after reaching the hotel the woman fell dead. In her possession svas found a ticket signed "Mrs. Iang." from San Francisco to Philadelphia. On her trunk was found the name "Ii. Sampson." Coroner McIIale endeavored to find the woman's relatives in Philadelphia, but, failing. cau.ed the body to be interred in WalJheim Cemetery. Soon after the burial Ion Lang, of 3VI9 Aspen street, Philadelphia, came to Chicago, and declared that he thought the woman was his wife, who had been for two years in California for her health. Mr. Lang had a picture of his wife, which strongly resembled the dead woman, but when it came to describing her baggage he could not tell the appearance of a single article in the coroner's possession, and that official not being satisfied declined to surrender the baggage. Recently A. L. Sampson, of Tucson, A. T., a well-know and wealthy resident or the Territory, wrote Coroner McIIale that the woman was his wife, and that they had been married ten years. He said she had started from San Francisco In April for the East, and was to take a long voyage to Calcutta. India. She had written him last on April 13, saying that she had met a lady on the cars and they were to travel together to the seaboard. When he did not hear again Mr. Sampson grew alarmed and began an Investigation. He learned of the unldentltied woman in Chicago, and concluded she had been his wife. He prepared to recover his wife's property. Coroner McIIale was relieved when the Westerner identified the trunk and its contents by loiter, even to a bottle of tooth powder. He mentioned note paper in the trunk. It was there, printed in his name and with the insignia of the Grand Army of the Republic on it. Mr. Sampson used the pap?rs as the commander ot the Union Veterans Association of Arizona. It was found just where he described it. The name "Ii. Sampson" was also on the trunk. To clinch his claim be sent a photograph of Mrs. Sampson and notified the ccroner to send the remains to Tucson. The picture had no resemblance to the dead woman. No one could consider them for an instant as likenesses of the same indlvicual. The coroner was in a quandary. If the deceased was Mrs. Lang how came she with. the nronertv of Mrs s;im,. j sue were -irs. tvimnson wnv .ii.i ,e not resemble her own r.rmtnnTarJi? low came she with a ticket bearing the lznature of Lnre. or.

New York Advertiser. Japan has a naval history. Many centuries ago. long before our ancestors suspected the existence of this continent, the Japanese were boasting of their first great naval achievement. Strance to say. this first expedition which made Japan's "arms to shine t-eyond the seas." as the chroniclers of the day so proudly wrote, was planned and conducted by a woman, the great warrior Kmpress Jingu. and it was directed against Corea. The Fmpress Jingu was young and beautiful, and as pious and obedient to the gods as beautiful. As a reward for her fidelity heaven Inspired her with the determination to com pier Corea. So Jingu, ordering a fleet to le collected, set out in L"l A. I. upon Japan's first naval expedition. I.efore starting she addressed her generals in the following language: "The safety or destruction of our country lies with you. I am a woman and young; the glory and fame will be yours if we succeed, and the disgrace ndne if we fall." The Fmpress won a rich reward for her courage and undaunted energy, and Corea became tributary to Japan. Immediately upon her return a child was liorn to the Kmprcss, who, when he grew up. became a great warrior, and Is now worshiped under the name of Hachiinan. God of War. In IatfT times it became the fashion to attribute the Corea n victory to the influence of the unburn child. All over Japan there are temples erected in honor of loth Hachiinan and .linen, and as late us 174. when the Japanese troops left for Formosa, many of them prayed for the especial protection of Hachlman. God of Soldiers. In the twelfth century a memorable naval battle look place, in which both sides lout thousands of adherents, . and the ea

was crimson with the life blood of the noble.-st in Japan. It occurred during on? cf those lierce civil wars that almost rent Japan in twain, a he two great houses of Taira and Minamoto were striving for the supremacy, and the latter had driven their rivals back to the se coast. Tne Minamoto had seven hundred junks and the Taira only four hundred, and. moreover, the latter were heavily encumbered, for they hid all their families, their women, children and old men on board. . The battle waged fiercely and the Taira clan was almost exterminated, while th? Minamoto lost heavilv. So fearful a slaughter left an indellible impression upon the whole nation and to th day the fishermen of Chesul declare that, on a stormy night, thousands upon thousands of the dead may be seen bailing out the sea with bottomless dippers, a futile labor imposed as a penance for the staining and.deflling. of the ocean by the blocni that was spilled that bright May morning in 11ST. This was, pernaps, cne of the greatest naval battles ever fought in Japan, and certainly the most terrible. After a brief period of naval glory In Japan there came a tir..e when the people absolutely secluded themselves from the outside world. All foreign ideas and models were not only eschewed, but penalties laid upon those who advanced them or wished to follow them. All vessels built on foreign models were destroyed by special command, ami it was forbidden to build any ships of larger size or different construction from the Junk, as we know it today. The foundation of the modern Japanese navy was begun just a few months before the fall of the Shogunate and the restoration of the Mikado to power in 1SW. That very energetic IJritish minister. Sir Harry Parkes, secured the services of Commander Tracy, several othcers and a few seamen from the IJritish navy, who engaged to give the native officers and men instruction, but in a few months the revolution took place and all the arrangements were upet. During the troubles that followed some of the grain daimios were anxious to have navies of their own, and one of these. The Prince of Hlzen, engaged Lieutenant Hawes, of the P.rltlsh Itoyal Marines, as instructor In gunnery to the seamen of his own class. Hawes may be fairly entitled to the credit of having founded the modern navy, for after the daimios were reduced to their present footing he occupied many other similar positions in the imperial navy to that he held under the Prince of Hlzen. About ten year:? later the British government lent another commission of about thirty officers, and a naval collese was established at Tokio, the drill being shnilar to that in use in the English Naval Gunnery School. Several of the higher native oflicers were educated in England, and others have attended the schools at Annapolis and In Holland. The British commission returned to Kngland several years aso. but the Japanese government still retains one or two Knglish oflicers in its employ. HUXTIXUTO.VS FOLLY.

Built a Mansion Costing S2,000f000 aud Is Kept Out of It by Superstition. New York Special. : When Collis P. Huntington gave out, a short time ago, that the big granite palace he had built for himself was for sale he did not accompany the statement with any reason. Now, everybody knew that there must be some very good reason to make him give up this palace, which had cost him nearly J2.000.000, not to speak of the thought and time he had put Into Its elaborate plans. Mr. Huntington is, as everybody knows, a speculator acute, far-sighted, above all, daring. He began life as a farm hoy In Connecticut, and he rose to be worth $100.000,000 at one,tirne.by daring, pure and slmp'e. Xo man' ever pinned his faith more absolutely to that old rule, that there are three requisites to successaudacity, audacity, audacity. The first supposition -was that Mr. Huntington had again" staked his fortune on a single throw and had lost such a part of it that his big house, with its accompanying establishment, was, for the time, too much for him. There were rumors of several large unsuccessful enterprises In which he was said to be the moving spirit. But when Mr. Huntington was seen he laushed and said he is all right and that his linanclal condition has nothing to do with the sale of his palace. But his denial lid not go for much, because a man doesn't usually own up when he Is in a tight place for money. Several months passed and no purchaser was found for the house. The rumors of llnancial embarrassment passed, and the house was still for sale. Some new explanation was necessary. When the plans for. the house were made the Huntingtons were just. buying the German Prince Hatzfeidt for their daughter. and it was said that the house was for the purpose of making a grand entry into NewYork society, which had hitherto refused the Huntingtons, despite their millions. So the new explanations revived this story and supplemented it with the statement that the Huntingtons had failed to get recognition, and. seeing that the new house would only bring humiliation, they had decided to give up their attempts upon society, as ruled by the Astora and planned by McAllister. This was very satisfactory, and even society people told It about and laughed over the way the Huntingtons had been rebuked. The new house, -with, its massive granite walls, so much like a penal institution, seemed a monument to social failure, and nobody wondered that Huntington was anxious to get it off his hands. But thU social failure explanation was as far from the truth as was the story of llnancial embarrassment. The real reason why Huntington never moved into his house is so small that to most people it will seem ridiculous. It is likely that Huntington himself wouM publicly deny it, just as we all deny those little weaknesses which are, nevertheless, so powerful in all our lives. The great millionaire, the strong man, the fearless speculator, refused to move into his new house because he feared that if he moved he would die. It was the old superstition that old men who grow. rich build line houses for their own funerals. And almost any architect will tell you that he has again and again lost valuable contracts through this very superstition. When Mr. Huntington started his plans, back In lbW, he no doubt thought of this superstition, but allowed It to have little weight with him. He rlanned slowly and elaborately, and when the contractors at last ot to work they built slowly and were again and again delayed. He expected to move in three years ago, but It was only last year that the house began to get near completion. . In the meantime his health had become less and less vigorous. His age and his years of hard work and worry began to tell uion him. The superstition came back with renewed force, and he began to think a great deal ulxnit it. At last ho became absolutely convinced that, should he move In, the tirst function to which his friends would be wanted would-be his funeral. Then he decided that he would not even keep the house in the family; that he would sell it and remove every possible danger of his having to occupy it. And he will stick to his idea. He will never live in that house; he will never furnish It. and if he lives twenty years and the house remains unsold, he will ttill be of the same mind. It is always interesting but no longer strange to find these small superstitions coming out in men wno are supposed to be absolutely matter-of-fact. It Is said that Mr. Huntington has another superstition that he will not ride In the elevator with a colored person, because he thinks it would mean bad luck in some way. either that' the elevator would fall or some of his many enterprises go wrong. It-is undoubtedly.-true that many a rich man has died immediately after building the house that was to be the monument of bis good fortune. And Mr. Huntington prefers not to be another example, and will content himself with the huge palace in San I'rancisco and the country place at Throgg's Neck, Westchester county. folliir nml t'nfT. Washington Post.

MAY INSURE HER LIFE

WOMAN'S HF.STHICTIOS IX THIS RUGAUD A It I j imil.MSHIXG. Policy May Not Hun In Her llh:inds FMVr.tiiNN to Deceive When She Become u Dewlrnble Ilisk. New York Sun. As woman gets nearer to emancipation, that being what the woman suffragists call the right to vote, she is sweeping away one after another practices of discrimination against her that have existed ever s'nee the Puritan fathers landed. There is hardly anything that she can't do nowadays that a man does do. The particular practice of discrimination that Is weakening before her determined assault at the present time is that Indulged In by the various life insurance companies. There was a time, a very few years ago, when there were only one or two life insurance companies in the United States that would take a risk on a woman's life at ;U. Those that did charged a big extra premium because they said her chances of livings ere much less than those of a man of the same age. This extra premium was in some cases so great that it amounted to a prohibitive tariff, and even of the companies that did let women insure their lives there were several that kept them from doing it by this extra rate. They began to weaken four or five years ago. First one company gave m, then another, and another, until to-day of all the Insurance companies in the United tf.tes there are probably not a do2en hat decline to take risks on the lives of women. Most of them, however, still discriminate against women by an extra a'e. This extra rate averages about " on a thousand more than a man lias to pay. Some of the companies charge it, no matter what the age of the woman may te, but the larger companies only charge it up to the age of forty-eight or fifty, when dangers of death that are peculiar to women are past. There are one or two companies that do not discriminate against women at all. Thess companies used to let her get insured to the amount of $10,000 when she paid an extra premium of i or 510 a thousand. If she was over forty-eight years of aee they would let her Insure herself for J25.O0O but that was the extreme limit, and the companies were not any too anxious to insure her for that amount, no matter how much extra she was willing to pay. There Is one little restriction yet by these companies, that is, the company will not insure a woman In favor of her husband. Tha officials put It bluntly toy saying that that restriction is in her interest, meaning that ther faith In male human nature is not of the best. ' The women have takerr advantage of ;.her new liberty to get insured, just as liber have taken advantage of every other C"?w liberty, and where ten years ago there were a hundred insured there are ,to-day thousands. Leaving out the Industrial companies, which Insure for . small amounts, 5100 or .00, or the like, there are probably twentyflve vomen who carry life insurance today to every one who carried it ten or fifteen years ago, and some of them are insured for very lartre amounts. They have .ken out insurance as an investment, just as men take it out. THEY ARE HEAVILY INSURED. The woman who carries the largest insurance on her life In the United States is Mrs. Hearst, the wife of Senator Hearst, of California. She is insured for about $300,000. Some of her Insurance Is what is called straight life insurance, but the greater part of it Is placed on the endowment plan that Is to say, at the end of twenty years, if she pays her premiums regularly, she can draw her money. Mrs. Hearst is said to be the first woman in the State of California who Insured her life. There are to-day a very large number of women there who carry from $15.uoo to $20,000 insurance, but there are none who carry anything approaching the amount she carries. Two women who carry $.jO.O0O are Mrs. Emeline Wallace and Mrs. Juana A. Neal. New York women have been rather slow to take up the matter of life insurance from the investment point of viw, though there are more than a thousand, according to the insurance men, who carry as much as $25.ooO or $W,U0o. and there ar more than ten thousand who carry from $.j,0C0 to $10,000. Of those who have larg?r amounts are the Misses Ixrillard. Following the example of their father, who has been for years a great patron of life insurance companies, thes? young ladies have themselves insured for $H,0iO each. The female members of the family of Theodore A. Havemeyer, the sugar man, are also insured for upward of $100,000. Mrs. J. Sloat Fassett, the wife of ex-Senator Fassett, has her life insured for more than $100,(kk. and her friend, Mrs. K. Ii. Crocker, of Klmira, carries ?1.V,C) insurance. Mrs. Fassett and Mrs. Crocker both patronize the endowment plan of insurance, so that they will get their money back themselves in case they live the twenty years necessary. There are many other women who carry from $75,or0 to $100, wv insurance on their lives, among them the wife of W. J. Arkell, the editor of Judge. But to go on and give a list of women who carry what may be called heavy insurance In New York city would be tiresome. There are so many of the women of New York applying for insurance to-day (that many of the larger companies have special departments for them and special examiners. For those women who prefer to have examinations made by their own sex they have women physicians who are as well-trained in discovering latent disease in the human system as are male doctors. There are several women doctors in New York city who make a good living examining women who want life insurance. Mrs. Dr. Jacob! Is an examiner for one of the Large companies. The insurance men say the women have. If anything, a greater knack of rinding out things about anybody they examine than men have. . Their reports on a case ordinarily are from four to six times the length of a report a male doctor makes. They contain not only everything about the woman's physical condition, but the physical condition of the woman's family, of her relatives, and sometimes of her friends. These extraordinary reports are not objected to except by the clerks who have to enter them up on the books. There is also In New York a woman's life insurance agency run by women in every department, from the canvasser both up and down. They have a big office down in the Equitable Building, and are building up a large practice. The insurance companies encourage them. So far as New York Is concerned the insurance companies here have found In thsir experience the last few years that there is about one-tenth difference in the risk on the life of a man than on the woman; it is In favor of the man. One company, however, in examining Its books last year, discovered that the average mortality in Its female clients for the year was exactly one-half greater than among Its men clients. This was an exceptional showing, and It was fair ground, possibly, for the renewal of the old discrimination, but nothing came of it. As a rule, the oflicers of the company ay. the greatest mortality among wom?n is between the ages of twenty, or thereabouts, when they marry, and of fortylive. The Incidents of married life are responsible for this. After the ace of fortvf live, if a woman is in good health at that age. she is. if anything, a better risk than a man; her chances of living are better, probably because she is mere apt to take care of herself and h?r general health thn a man is. She is not exposed to the ordinary dangers of accident or of disease that every man who continue: In active business is exposed to. She is not so liable to be guilty of excesses In eating or drinking. In every way she is better kept, and usually sh is much more readv to have medical attendance when anything does happen to her. IN THE WEST AND SOUTH. The State of Colorado has two women who carry heavy lif insurance. One I Mrs. Martha J. Cranmer, who is Insured for $100,000. and the other Is Mrs. Mary E. Eckert, who carries $13.Vo Insurance ca her life. Mrs. Harv.ood, the rich Atlanta society woman, is insured for $.V),0n). ChicaRO women are quite as si - as Ncw Yoik women to put their money Into life Insurance as an Investment, an I tnvic are only two or three women out there who carry very heavy insurance, although the number who are insured for an ounts op to $2.V"0 Is large.

Western women who nave heavy insurance have it all placed m tne b Eastern companies. For instance. Mrs. W. C. Hill, of Seattle, Wash., has $100,000 xn to New York companies. Southern women are also patronlzers of New York companies. Mrs. Lorena Bailey and Mrs. Mary E. S. Hansom, of Louisville, and Mrs. Lorena S. Standlford. of Paducah, each have $30,000 in New York comnanies. Mrs. Caroline C. Sinclair, of Cellar Rapids, la., is another one. She carries $30,000 insurance in the East. The woman who is insured most heavily in the South Is Mrs. J. S. Carr, of Durham, N. C. She carries $138,000 insurance. The wife cf Mr. T. M. Holt, of Haw River. N. C, also carries more than $loO.Coo. Mrs. Ioretta B. Gibson, one of the society women cf Cincinnati, has her life Insured for $70,These are just a few or the women wno have taken advantage of the removal of discriminations on the part of Insurance companies. A list of all the women would fill a book. Speaking in a general way of insurance risks on the lives of women, an official of cne of the companies said to the Sun reporter: "If I know the woman I consider her as good risk as a man, or if she Is a woman of any prominence I consider her as good ri.sk as a man; but if she Is a woman of whom I have never heard I wouldn't make any predictions. That may sound rather harsh, but it is a fact that insurance companies have found that women are used much more to swindle companies than are men. Women have troubles peculiar to women that the ordinary examination of an insurance surgeon would not disclose unless she let fall some hint. The examination of women is not nearly so strict as it is of men. This Is necessarily the case, and it is. therefore, possible for them to deceive physicians much more easily than it is for men to deceive them. "We verv often have cases of women who are insured and who die 1n a few months of some disease from which they suffered when they were insured. For instance, here only the other day a woman who was insured for $23,000 died of a cancer which she had successfully concealed from the surgeon when he examined her and pronounced her a lit subject for insurance four months before. The company in that case did not pay the full amount of the insurance, but they compromised for quite a large sum. "Our company permits women to insure themselves in favor of their husbands, but there would be some Justification In restricting that liberty, and I can cite the case of a woman in a foreign country who was insured last year. Not very long after that she was killed. She was in the barn at the time. Her husband was the only witness, and he said that she had been kicked to death by a horse. His reputation was fir3t-class. and our agent at the point told us that the case was all right, so the money was paid. The man married again not long afterward, and his second wife was insured also. Now she is dead, and we have every reason to suspect that she was murdered. If he murdered this one, the chances are two to one that he also murdered the other one. "So you see, to say that It is in the Interest of a woman to prevent her insuring herself in favor of her husband is a statement of fact. Of course, there are not many cases of the kind I mention, but there are enough to warrant some sort of restriction." In the companies that still discriminate against women by. charging them extra premiums, the extra premium on a twentyvear endowment policy amounts to exactly $1,000 on every $10,000 of insurance; that is to say. she must pay into the company $1,000 more than" a man would have to pay to draw out exactly the san:e amount. But since the start has been made by some companies in taking away all discriminating rule-s. it is only a matter of a short time when the other companies fall in line. So if woman can't vote yet, she can get her life insured just like a man. and the life agent will tell her that that Is almost as good as voting. "She will be happy yet. you bet." "WHAT "WILL CLKVKLAXD IIO? HU Signature to the Senate Bill HI Moral Denth Warrant. Brooklyn Eagle (Dem.) Minus free raw materials and plus an income tax and a villainous sugar schedule, any tariff bill attained by the sordldness of the Senate and by the cowardice of the House would present at the bottom of it the moral death warrant of Grover Cleveland, signed by himself, If he appended his name in approval of it. We think he knows this, and we think that he knows that the country knows it. On that account the Eagle is more trustful of tolerable results In tariff legislation, if any, than on any different account which might be presented. Even regarding this, however, this experienced paper speaks not with the language of conridence, but only with that of hope. The situation is grave. The path of duty is as clear as the sun in the sky, but the solicitations not to tread it were never more numerous to men with the power of responsibility and with the responsibility of power. So old-fashioned a rule as the right and the right only, no matter what the consequences to party, to country or to self, is more admirable and attractive 230 miles from Washington thin in the federal city and probably easier to an editor than to a President. Hut that Is the only rule which will bring help to the party, credit to the executive, welfare to the country and good fame to any of them hereafter. The President, the party and the people are in one case in this thing. The people cannot afford that the sale of law be made successful. The party cannot afford to be the victim or the vehicle of such a sale, or the slave of the dictatorial and infamously sordid sellers of law. If law be sold, so sure as God reigns and His heavens are spread above His earth will the President's power, and character, and honor be sold with It In the judgment of mankind throughout the ages to come. The solicitation to Washington to turn traitor to the young Republic; to Lincoln to let secession have its way by compromises signed in the blood of bondmen, and to Grant to permit defeat to rest upon the cause of the Union were not more crucial and decisive than is the appeal of expediency to the principles, of timidity to the courage and of corruption to the character of Grover Cleveland In this supreme emergency of the fame, the fragrance, the fate and the highest interests of hi3 country and himself. mnll Matter.
