Col., Sept. 10.—W. H. Lawrence, of Cleveland. 0., who was shot yesterday in the Oxford Hotel in this city by Florence Richardson, alias Florence Montague. is still alive, but his attendants at St. Luke’s Hospital regard his condition as critical. The bullet penetrated his left lung and inflicted other internal injuries. It appears that before the woman shot him he had refused to give her more money, and had told her that he was going to leave her. It is understood that the woman’s mother is living in Albion, or Alpena, Mich. Had a Family In Cleveland. CLEVELAND, 0., Sept. 10.—M. J. Lawrence, president of the Ohio Farmer Publishing Company, said to-day that his brother, W. H. Lawrence, who was shot in Denver yesterday by a woman who afterward killed herself, has not been connected with the Ohio Farmer for the past four years. His health ha? been poor, and he spent the summers in Denver and the winters in Texas. He is a wealthy man, with a huge income, and has a wife and five children in Cleveland. TWO REPORTERS DROWNED. Chicago Record Men Tried to Shoot The Grande Discharge Rapids. QUEBEC, Sept. 10.—Carl Smith, who v rote the “Fired at Random” column of the Chicago Record, and Louis Sass, sporting editor on the same paper, have been drowned in the heavy rapids of the Grande Discharge by the upsetting of their birch l urk canoes. They were on a holiday tour. The Grande Discharge is the outlet of Lake Si. John, for which resort the newspaper nu n had left here Wednesday morning. Tne Vuche Caillc, where the drowning oc- * urred, is opposite the lower point of Alma island, where the waters of the Grande and l.’ttle Discharge unite to form the head of the Saguenay river. At low water the rapids are often shot by Indians in canoes, but the water being high, the guides objected to the trip until urged by the deceased. When one canoe upset the other went to its assistance and was also swamped. Both guides were crowned. Mr. Smith was well known throughout the West and at one time was managing editor of the Omaha WorldHerald. ELECTRICITY IN TUBE WORKS. Big Pittsburg Company Decides* on a Radical Change. PITTSBURG, Pa.. Sept. 10.—Arrangements are now being made by the officials of the Pennsylvania Tube Works Company for the installation of a complete electric plant in its great works on Second avenue, to cost SIOO,OOO, and the operation of the entire plant by electricity. This will be the first large iron mill In the United States to adopt electricity for power, and it is believed that the prejudice that has existed among iron manufacturers for some time will be quicklv broken through by other large plants. It is the intention of the tube companv to erect the central power plant of about 1,000 horse power and distribute the electricity througn the lap and buttweld departments to about twenty-five motors of forty horse power each, that will be placed near the various machines. W. B. Rhodes, general manager of the company, who has been conducting the arrangements for the revolutionary change, has intimated that a saving will be made In fuel of fully 25 per cent.

DOUBT ABOUT PARADE — PORTO RICO TROOPS MAY NOT SHOW / UP STRONG IX NEW YORK. ♦ The President Willing if Everything He Convenient—Hospital Skip, vvith Thirteen Dead, Arrives. WASHINGTON, Sept. 10.—There Is some doubt, after all, as to whether the parade of the troops returning from Porto Rico desired by the citizens of New York, can be arranged for next week, or, indeed, at all. Not that the consent of the President is lacking, for he told General Miles to-day that the troops might parade if the conditions would permit. But the events of to-day may prevent the execution of that purpose. General Miles said to-night that the arrival at New York of the big transport Mississippi had not been taken into acount in his calculations. There was aboard a large number of the crack troops of the Porto Rican force, including the Philadelphia Artillery, a large body of cavalry and other troops that would have made an imposing parade in conjunction with those now on tfie way. But these had gone to the railroad cars immediately upon landing and been forwarded to their homes and were beyond recall. Os the soldiers to come from Porto Rico there were now only the troops under General Wilson and General Garretson, numbering about 2.000 and alone they would not make much of a showing on parade. It would be possible, perhaps, he said, to make good the deficiency if the troops at Montauk could be brought to New York in time, by which he meant next Saturday, and efforts will be made in that direction. The general’s idea is to have the men parade and then be placed aboard the cars immediately, on the Pennsylvania, Erie and Baltimore & Ohio Railroads and dispatched at once to their home stations. He was confident that they would be in physical condition for a parade, as the sick men have been removed to the hospitals and there is nothing to hamper them. Acting Secretary Meikeljohn is now considering the proposition. THIRTEEN DIED AT SEA. The Missouri Reaches Wikoflt from Santiago with 261 Sick. CAMP WIKOFF, Montauk Point, Long Island, Sept. 10.—The Missouri arrived this morning from Santiago. She had 261 sick men when she left Santiago. They were taken from the different hospitals. During the voyage up thirteen died, as follows: Lieut. C. Orcutt. Company C, Second Infantry; Edward A. Wilson, Company A, Thirty-third Michigan; Arthur Vannett, musician, Company C, Seventy-first New York; dleorge W. Hodgins, Company H, Second Massachusetts; Guy L. Skalliss, Company M, First Illinois; John J. Fitzgibbon, Company L, Seventy-first New York; William A. Rush, Company G. Seventy-first New York; Earl Dewitt, Company L, Thirtythird Michigan; James Milan, Company A, Ninth Infantry; Samuel J. Young, Company G. Seventh Infantry; Charles L. Wilde, signal corps; William Palmer, Company E. Seventy-first New York, and L. E. Elberson, Company E, Seventy-first New York. The transport Vigilancia also arrived from Santiago to-day, bringing several hundred of various regiments. In accordance to the Instructions of Surgeon General Sternberg, Colonel Forward is hurrying the sick soldiers from camp to city hospitals before the cold rainy season sets in. Montauk is the most exposed point on the Long island coast, and the storms that sweep over the place in the fall are so severe that no regular places of habitation are maintained on the beach except the life-saving stations. About three hundred sick men are being taken away daily, and at this rate the surviving sick soldiers will all be comfortably lodged in city hospitals within the next few days. Washington Allen, Company F, Twentyfifth United States Infantry, died at New Haven to-day of typhoid fever. He was taken there from Montauk Point. His home was in Howell, Mich. - MOXEY FOR ROUGH RIDERS. New York Millionaires Taking; Care of Roonerelt’i Heroes. CAMP WIKOFF, Sept. 10.—Colonel Roosevelt has received money from August Belmont and other wealthy residents of New York for the Rough Riders. The money was sent to purchase delicacies for the men but as they have all of these they want it is to be distributed to the families and relatives of men who were either killed in battle, wounded or are sick. The well mei are also getting some money, for Colone 1 Roosevelt thinks that for two months after being mustered out they will not be able to do any hard work, and should have funds to sustain life for a time after leaving the service. The chances of the victorious troops parading in New York are dubious. Colone Roosevelt has given up the idea of his men parading, and some of them are being mustered out to-day. All the Rough Riders expect to be on their way home by Tuesda; next Colonel Forwood received notice from the Weather Bureau at Washington to-day that a fall of ten degrees in temperature might be expected at Camp Wikoff in the nex. twenty-four hours. Colonel Forwood has accordingly taken advantage of this advance notice, and is making every effbrt to provide extra blankets for the sick in the hospitals. Treated the Soldiers Royally. CHICAGO, Sept. 10,-Col. Henry L. Turner, commanding the First Illinois Volunteer Infantry, in an interview immediately following his arrival in this city, said: “The treatment of the Lehiglv Valley, of the Lake Shore & Michigan Southern Railroads of the First Regiment in their transportation from Jersey City to Chicago, to put it briefly, was royal, and I desire to express my gratitude for the generous treatment accorded the well as well as the sick soldiers of my immediate command. Every attention was paid us that could pcrsibly be, and every effort was put forth to make our men comfortable. We are more than satisfied, and 1 gladly bear testimony to the careful treatment by the Lehigh \ alley and Lake Shore & Michigan Southern Railroads.” * The soldiers in his command also spoke in the highest terms of the transportation and accommodations of these two railroads, and seemed anxious that the public should know that, so fjr as these roads were ern-c-erned, they had received every courtesy and kina treatment The Cnmp Hospitals Scored. CHICK AM AUGA PARK. Tenn., Sept. 10. —No regiments left Camp Thomas to-day and none will go out until Monday. The Second Kentucky and the Second Arkansas, the only two yet to go, will leave Monday instead of to-day and to-morrow, as at first intended. With the departure of these only the Sixth United States Volunteers and the hospitals will remain at Chickamauga. Grigsby’s Rough Riders, who are now at liberty, and can go as they please, are returning home by the to-day. The Second Kentucky Regiment engaged in a sham battle on Snodgrass hill this morning. The regiment was formed in two sections, one on top of the hill and the other in the woods at tbe foot of the hill. The battle represented minutely the famous fight on Snodgrass hill during the civil war. The report of Generals Sanger, Mattox

and Roe, giving in detail the result of their investigation of camp hospitals, has been made public by General Breckinridge. The three generals, who worked some time as a hospital and camp examining board, report that the conditions In the various hospitals were very unsatisfactory. They state that the hospitals were not provided with the proper necessities; that they did not have a sufficient number of attendants, that they were badly located, and that they were in every way inadequate. Major Vaughan, of Ann Arbor, Mich., Major Shakspeare, of Philadelphia, and Major Reed, the latter of the regular army, arrived to-day from Huntsville. These officers have been sent out as a commission by Surgeon General Sternberg to Investigate the causes leading to the outbreak of typhoid fever in the camps of the army. They began their investigation at Camp Thomas at once. The Second Division, Third Army Corps, hospital, a’jout which so much criticism has been indulged, was disbanded to-day and the sick sent to Sternberg hospital. The health report given out by Gen. Breckinridge to-day is as follows: Sick in hospital, 600; in quarters, 100; deaths, 1; convalescents released on furlough, 30. More Ponce Troops Reach New .York. NEW YORK, Sept. 10.—Crack cavalry organizations of New York and Philadelphia comprised the great majority of those who reached this port to-day on board the United States transport Mississippi from Ponce, Porto Rico.

There were 924 officers and men in the four sections of the train. Os that number 2j6 sick men, on the first section, needed ambulance attention and hospital care. The regiment was met at the station by the First Infantry Veteran Reserves, 1,000 strong, and escorted to the armory at Sixteenth street. All along the line of march the returning soldiers were greeted by thousands of enthusiastic citizens. The distance from the depot to the armory was only two miles, but the marching column was in such a condition that the soldiers required three rests to cover the distance. Hospitals and private nomes cared for those who have no relatives in the city. There were no deaths since the regiment left Montauk Point, and It is said that among the sick men only one, Private Griffin, is in a dangerous condition. Mastered Oat Men Hashing Home.

THE WM. H. BLOCK CO.

NOW HAS HER CHILDREN -- ♦ - BOARD OF GUARDIANS SURRENDERS MRS. PETTIT’S LITTLE ONE. Story of tlie Crnel Attempt to Break Up Thin Family—Hatband Reported Responsible. On Aug. 2 last the Board of Children’s Guardians took charge of the three children of Mrs. Julia Pettit, 518 Spring street, on the affidavit of the secretary of the board that the moral associations of the children w'ere not of the beet. The children were Ida Pettit, aged eleven; Rose, aged nine, and a boy five years of age. The children were taken from their home by a deputy sheriff, who had an order from the court. At the time the case attracted considerable attention. The deputy sheriff stated that he had never witnessed a more pitiful scene than that which took place between the mother and children when they found they were to be parted. Mrs. Pettit and her husband had not been living together for some time, and a few weeks before the children were taken from her she had applied for a divorce. She sought the advice of an attorney, who promised to have tho children returned to her if possible. Yesterday morning, about 9 o’clock, Mrs. Pettit was summoned to the Board of Guardians’ Home, at Irvington, and was told that she was at liberty to take her children away with her. It was a glad reunion of the little family, and the mother and children came away together. It is understood that the board will not prosecute the case for possession of the children unless some stronger evidence against the character of Mrs. Pettit is shown. Her attorney claims that her husband is chiefly responsible for her trouble. It is said that It was on the assertion of Pettit that his wife was not living properly that the board sought to get control of the children. Attorney Bicknell had prepared to present to the court the affidavits of several citizens living in the neighborhood of the Pettits that the moral surroundings of the children are noi harmfuL Mrs. Pettit’s attorney claims his client is the victim of circumstances. Some time ladMKpmmer Mrs. Pettit advertised one of bedrooms for rent, and the "ad” was answered by a man who kept the apartment for two weeks. During the time he remained in the house as a lodger Mrs. Pettit’s mother resided with her. It is claimed that the presence of this man in the house starter the complaint against Mrs. Pettit. Her suit for divorce Is still pending in the courts. Frank Wright, agent for the Board of Guardians, in discussing the Pettit case a day or two ago, remarked that It was too often the case that only one side of the story Is told where the board takes possession of a child. He complained that the action of the board Is too often misunderstood. In connection with his work as an agent of the board in placing children in

homes provided for them, Mr. Wright related a curious story. A year or two ago the board found a home for a pretty girl of about fifteen in the northern part of the State. The girl had been with the family but a short time when a letter was received by the board that she was about to leave her benefactors in spite of their protest. It was deemed advisable oy the boarc to send after the girl rather than permit her to run off. Agent Wright was at once sent after the child, with instructions to bring her to this city. The girl expressed a willingness to accompany the agent back to Indianapolis. They started in company with the father-in-law of the man at whose home the girl had been staying. The father-in-law accompanied them to a point forty or fifty miles south and tnen left the train. Wright brought the girl on ta Indianapolis. On the way here he informed her that she was to be placed in one of the convents of this city, but promised that if sne was a good firl she w’ould not have to stay there long. he girl was put in the convent, but her conduct was exemplary and she was removed within a day or two. A week later Wright received a letter from the head of the family where the girl had been living in the northern part of the State. He wrote in great distress of mind, to tbe effect that the newspapers in his neighborhood were full of thrilling accounts of how an orphan girl which he had in his home had been turned over to a Roman Catholic priest, and that the latter had taken her away. The newspapers, he said, told how the girl and the priest had changed cars at a certain Indiana town, and that the apparent distress of the girl had attracted a crowd of five hundred people about the railroad station. According to his letter, the report went on to say that the girl fell on her knees on the depot platform and begged the crowd of people to save her from the priest who was dragging her away to a convent. The crowd, it was reported, was much incensed and was almost ready to mob the priest when the train bore them away. "I was the ‘priest’ referred to,” continued Agent Wright in his narrative “I remember that I used to wear a small gold cross, and I think I had it on that day. I sat down and wrote this man a letter, and told him that his father-in-law, if he desired, could clear up the mob story that was alleged to have taken place. I told him that his father-in-law, who left us at the station where this thrilling episode was said to have taken place, could testify that no such thing ever happened, if he cared to tell the truth about it. Aside from this I never took any pains to clear up the matter.” Divorce Complaints. Jefferson C. Duzan, in an action for damages brought iu the Superior Court yesterday, complains that Salathiel B. Dale is responsible for the domestic unhappiness that has come into his home. He brings suit for $5,000 damages against Dale, alleging that the defendant has alienated the affections of Mrs. Duzan, to whom the plaintiff was married on March 16, 1884. He avers that his wife left him last July. He charges that while he was away at work defendant Dale went to his house and enticed Mrs. Duzan away from horde, taking her on a trip to Michigan City. The plaintiff charges that on other occasions Dale has induced his wife to leave her home and has finally “won her love, confidence and affection. The plaintiff says she has left him, to the great humiliation and disgrace of himself and their fourteen-year-ola son. Minnie M. Story seeks a divorce from Frank B. Story, to whom she was married In Rushvilie on March 11. 1896. They separated in 1896. Plaintiff says her husband has failed to support her. Charles F. Steyers complains of Julia Steyers, who. he says, has deserted him. He wants her to have the custody of their children, as she owns property valued at $4,600 in her own name.
