A STAUTLISO TACT. It ii not commonly known thai a lare proportion of the rheumatism and neuralgia extant is traceable directly to the distil condition or imperfect action of the kidneys and liver; therefore a remedy which urea the resulting disease must have found ad smitten the first cause. Many persons fing Athlophoics for rheumatism, and neuXhlgia hare been surprised to find that 'ironic disorders of th liver and kidneys nave also been greatly relieved, and they have written for an explanation. The fact ii, that the remaiy acts directly on these Organa, cleansing them from all irritating subg ances and regulating tle.r action. Taken in connection with Athlophoros Tills this is, without exception, the most valuable kidney and aver remedy In the world, and will cure a large proportion of those who have these diseases. Mr. W. B. Kirg, dealer in ewing-ma-ehines, corner of Fifth and Columbia Streek, IjJajette, Ind., says: "Athlophoros was iaagical in its effects upon me. I was first taken with pain in the soles of my feet, and in a few hours waa not able to walk at all. The rapidity with which the disease spread ever my whole system was wonderful ; every tone, muscle and joint in my whole body i;ave me the most Intense pain. My arms ivere drawn up, I could not walk, eat or lief p. I entered in this way for many weeks. Ifiraüy I was induced to try Athlophoros. I had taken but a few doses when I had a -very decided relief. I continued with it until I Lad used six bottles, acd have rt had n pain of rheumatism sie. I consider my ase a ruiracle, and naturally feel very kindly towards Athlophoros." Every drupgist should keep Athlophoros and Athlophoros Pills, but where they cen aot be bought of the drusist the Athlophoros Companv. 112 Wall street, New York, will send either (carriage paid) on receipt of regular price, which is $1 per bottle for Athlophoros and 50 cents for Pills. For liver and kidney disease, dyspepsia, indtjreeiion, weakness, nervous debility, diseases of reinen, constipation, headache, impure blood, ta, Athlophoros Fills are unejualed.

CHICAGO'S SPECULATIVE TRADE. H heat Kales Steady Corn Ouiet, While Pork ia Considered an I'nctrtala Factor. Special to the Sentinc-i. Chicago, Jan. 15. Tbe wheat market on 'Change Ulis week has been a big surprise to the trade. The New Yorkers abandoned their efforts to "bull" the deal. Rouss and his Wall street following turned tail and sold oat at a loss. It was thought then that, with the heavy local "plungers" known to bo "bearish," the market would go awah. Norm Ream, 'Old natch" Cudaby and Kent i lugged the crowd ravagoly, and waited for.a break, but it never came. The buying was by middle-weight, the merchant lags and the country. They beheve in tbe grain in spite of discouraging outside news, and tbe dote is about steady. Cables are ontradictory. tome quoting foreign markets weak and others steady at ins recent small deeline. Clearances have not shown np as well as expected, and if the visible supply this week does not record another increase It will be wholly owing to the great falling off in receipts at pri mary points. Exporters here and at the sea-board have resold some larzc line?, and considerable ocean fricght room which was engaged for wheat has been "farmed out" to cotton merchants. .Cal liornla continues to report ram, and considerable ef tbe grain bought here by San Francisco parties on fear of crop failure on the Pacific coist has been dumped. On the other hand. May wheat has i (acted bo man) tines from around täat this ha come to tie considered the natural turn ing point. The little breath of war gossip which Coats in each day als-o keeps many "bearlsaJy inclined parties from felling, and although Eall&b consols as yet show no change, holders hope that some excitement of this sort will help them out If nothing else dos. Stocks in sight, too, they know to be now at about a maximum, and when the top of the mountain is once fairly passed and the shrinkage beg'in they think they an control tbe deal. To be sure, waere America was entire mistress of the situation abroad a aaontb ago, she now has several competitors and muft meet their price 3 to eSect tale;. Corn rules quiet and steady. The big operators are well evened up and not Inclined to venture far from shore. "Shorts" are the principal buyers and the selling is by "longs" and against cribbed cm. Tork fluctuate within narrow limits and Is gov ecned a good deal by the hog market at the yardsThe big packers own the property, but are keeping very quiet. The plan may be to freeze out the countiy," which is alao "long." Uutchinson Is "plucKiug" about with heavy sales and purchases aaa la considered a very uncertain factor. A LOSS OF Sioo.ooo. .Tbe Terre Bant Distillery Burned, with 5,000 Gallons ef Wines and 10,000 Uusbels of Corn. TKRitR Haute, Jan. 13. At 3 o'clock this morn ing an alarm of fire called the department to the Terre Haute distillery, where a fire was found to be raging In the upper floor of the main building In which are the wine and beer rooms and the wine vats.

The roar ef the flames and the hissing of the burnln liquor were fearful. The crashing of the ponder ous vats, the rectify ing apparatus, the stills anJU the net-work of machinery was appalling. At 4:30 'a. m. the upper floors of the walla of the south wing went down Into the f ecthlng mass of. fire with a thunderous crash that male the ground tremble. The fire spread downward .through the building, and soon the boiler-room was burning from end to end. Tremendous :ouJsof sparks and living coals of fire filled the air and were spread broadcast by the wind. reat fears were eatertalned for the safety of the bonded warehouse, but It was saved. In the building were not Iesa than 65,000 gallona of high wines ana 20,000 gallons of low-wines and rectified whh-ky. A large amount cf rye, malt and oaU was ia store, also about 10,000 bnshelf of corn, The building ia a total wreck.

Hart, or rnnceton, Ind. On last Christmas eve, in the ladies' waiting-room of the L., K. and SU L. depot at Iluntingburg, Hart, with a party of companions, waa on his way to Kockport, Ind. They were waiting for the Louisville and i.vaLEVUie arcomouaiion train, waica was two hours late. About 9 o'clock John Kavse and Henry Dtcht. both under the influence of liquor aad very noi?y and quarrelsome, vere loafiac; about the de?ot and appeared to be determined to pet into a quarrel or fi;ht with some ono. They weis heard to siy that they would do somebody up thatniLt, and as Il&rt stepped out of the ladies' waiting room Kaysa and I5echt attacked him without provocnion, BtrikiDg him in the face with their fists, and a3 he reeled into the door and to his sa.it the bl?cd was senrtins from a cut in his neck. where he had been stabbed just under the left ear, severing the jugular vein. Jl3 b;ei to death in a few tuinuttd. A murderouslooking knife wa3 found lj in oa the tbor near tfce body of Ilart. K-iyse and T.echt boarded the west bound train, saj'in they were Roirg to Mount Carmel. Au ei-bberiiT of Gitifon county was at the dppot, knew of the murder, saw Kayse and ucnt in tne train and watched them until they arrived at 1'ricceton, where he arrested them and lodged them in the rnnctton jail. The evidence at the trial yesterday ia overwhelmingly against the prisoners. A Kunnway Girl Caught. nicuMOSi', Jan. 10. A handsome young girl, about seventtea yearä of age, named Annie r rench. daughter of John AI. J: reiun. Postmaster at St. I'ari3, Ohio, who ran away from home last Thursday, was apprehended here, and, by a trick, detained until the arrival of her faiher, when he took her home yesterday. She ltft home, telliHg her mother she was going to visit relatives at Urbaua, Oaio, as she was wont to do occasionally, and the fact that she did not return home that evening did not occasion alarm. Uat when Bhe did not return Friday night, and Inquiry failed to elicit any information as to her whereabouts, her parents suspected something was wroner, and were confirmed in the suspicion Saturday by the receipt of a letter from her postmarked "C, C, C. and I. llaiiway Mail Service." She stated here that she was at Springfield when her father was there after her, closeted with a couple of vourjg worthies named O'Neil and 1'oss, ana on Friday she was at the St. James Hotel in Springfield, where the name cf an Urbana lawyer alao appears on the reeister. She does not confess all, but says O'Neil and Koss submitted her to indignities that they were afraid would make trouble for them, and paid her fare to Yellow Springs, Ohio, whence she came here last night. A Bank Swindler Abroad. Bratil, Jan. 1G. A month ago a note for $.00 was offered to one of our banks at a reasonable discount. The note was indorsed by two well-known Lewis Township farmers whose word was as good as a draft. The name of one of the signers was misspelled. Tbis, with the signer's well-known aversion to borrowing money, led the banker to regard the note with suspicion. The suspicion was betrayed, and the holder, after remarkirg that he was the son of the signer in question, hurriedly disappeared. Nor could he befound on being searched for by tbe police, though it ii feared he left the note with some OEe of our citizens before going. Since then the same game has been played at Greencastle, the Putnam County Bank being taken in to tbe extent of $-100 on a note signed by Messrs. Vermillion and Scott, two wellknown citizens. Tho forger disappeared, nor has any clew been obtained as to hU whereabouts. From his methods it is evident that he is an old hand, and that he is working otbtr fields. Until they hear of his arrest bankers will do well to be on the lookout for well-indorsed notes. A Community la Arms. Tloomi.nütox, Jan. 1G. "Word has been received here of an exciting time in Marion Township that resulted in the burning of a $1,20) school building, and more trouble is apprehended. It all grows ont of a contest of wo lady teachers, who, of course, had their friendi. Doth were applicants for the position of teacher, and, in order to compromise the matter, the Trustees gave the school to one Laura Turner, with the prombe that the other, Mary Dixon, should have It the next. Miss Turner taught her term, but when the time came t j give place to Miss Dixon she refused to tum over the keys. Not to be outdone, the Trustees changed the locks on the building, but when next morning came no aey was necessary, as tho question was settled by the incendiary's torch. Now each faction is charging the other with the burnine. The result ia that the whole com munity is up in arms, and damage suits are liable to be commenced. The Trustees assert that the guilty parties shall be brought to justice, regardless of expense and who tnty are. A righting; Preacher. Swirrf er, Jan. 1G. The religious element Is greatly exercised over the pugilistic pro clivities recently exhibited by Iiev. George Howard, pastor of the Methodist Church. At the close of the,service Thursday eveniDg tne exit or tne large audience was retarded by a company of young men, walticg for meir giria as tney came out to take them heme. The preacher asked the boys to pass out. As no attention was paid to him Howard became angry, and taking hold of James F. tmitn, tin tnrew htm out. The others fol lowed like sheep. Complaint was lodged aeainst the preacher.and he was arrested and fined a dollar and costs for assault and battery. He appealed the case to the Circuit Court and also filed complaint against Smith ior aisiuroiDg a religious meeting. An Esteemed German Citizen Dead. TJROwirsTowjr, Jan. 10. Mr. nenry Tru' mail, who resided six miles miles southeast of thi3 place died last night at the ripe old age of eighty-three years.

The

crime for which they were held was an asscult and robbery committed on Henry Iuppen!atz, Dear St. Pan!, eomo month go. The three, with one other. Emmett Bennett were indicted and tried at the lat terra of court. The latter, against whom seemed a preponderance of damaging circumstances, was tried and acquitted. His brother, Fverett Bennett, was tried, but the jury disugreed, there being eleven for conviction. The trial of tbe three who escaped would have come up at the February term. ;A Twecty-Oii Yearn' Sentence. Evaxsvili-e, Jan. 1G. In the murder trial of Frank McClain, which has been occupying the Circuit Court for the past two days, tue jury returned a verdict of manslaughter, and sentenced the defendant to the penitentiary for twenty-oue years. He was convicted on circumstantial evidence. The murder was a most brutal one, and the victim whs never fully identified. The two men fought with clubs for a distance of half a mile along a country road near here, and then into a coruiUld, where the stranger was feu nd with Lis head La mm ere J into tue plowed ground. Tbe circu aastances pointed to strobgly to McCl.ia that he was convicted, as stated a'xve. Organizing Aga'nut Horse-Thleres. MAKiex, Jan. 15.

Mrsnt Jan. 10. While many farmers lost nearly all their hogs in this county during the summer and fall, yet many others saved theirs. It was thought that with the severe cold weather this diseas would suoside, but it seems t prevail right a!onr. It now seems to be the general opinion that the hog crop of this section will be light. TLe premise of one of the la-gest wheat crops ever raised is generally conceded. Colts Hoasted to a Crisp. Sktmoi r, Jan. 10. The barn of Mrs. Julia A.

The Senatorial contest waxeth hotter daily. A local paper, charging tbat certain leading railroad men are actively engaged in working for Governor Ireland, quotes the lan guape of Pool Commissioner Waldo, in a letter to a legislator, aa follows: 'I will consider It a per sonal obligation to myseil If you will rote for Ireland for tbe Senate." The Governor, upon being Interviewed on his alleged opposition to tbe interstate commerce bill for the purposo of securing influence in tbe contest for tbe Senatorsbip, said "I have this to say: The person who tortures tbe language of my message into evidence of my hos tility to Federal legislation on Inter-State com me reo Is either anxious to misrepresent me or is incapable of understanding tbe most ordinary Ideas expressed In print; and the man who as sumes that the federal Government has the right to enter States and tale control of roads within their borders Is in no better condition than the ErBh I spoke to the Legislature of the State, anl had no reference to iuler state commerce. I pre sume that I occupy the same position on St to regulation of railways that Senator Maxey, Judge Reagan and others Co." As to the tnpport of ratlroal men in h candidacy, he emphatically denied any coalition, but did not think that any candidate for the Senate would spurn the aid of even railroad men.

FRENCH'S STATEMENTS.

Talk in Washington na to What the Ex. Commissioner ef the Pacific ltoads Says. Washington Special to the Inter Ocean. TLe sensation of tbe day at tbe Capitol has been the publication in the New Tork World of a full page article containing what purports to be certain diclosures in connection with the expenditures of money in the interests ot the Central and Southern Pacific Bailroads. The publication is divided into two prts: (I) The noted Chiton let ters which were published years ago In California at the t'me when Leland Stanford was making his canTaM for the United States Senate. (2) An al leged statement of one Thiophilus French, who was at one time United States Commissioner of Railroads. The Colt jn letters, of course, are not new, and much that Is coatained In tte statement of French is not new, bat tbe schedule of money expended, and tbe persons to whom it was raid have not been published before. Tho list contains a good many names familiar to tbe lobby, tbe most froquent being that of Charles Sherrill, recently deceased, w l.o Lumbered among his pall-bearers some of the most distinguished men of Washington. It was of Sherrill since his death tbat C. P. Uuntiagton has written that he never expended any money improperly In Washington. The expenditures which the Central and Southern Facllio con sidered proper and necessary must therefore have been very large, a3 Mr. Sherrill's nama appears with great frequency with large sums charged to salary account. Sometimes 11 r. Sherrill was paid as much as 1)0,000 at onco. Doubtle&s a great many of the expeuditureB were made for the ordinary purpoees of tbe railroad, which aro not necessarily corrupt because people do not underBland tbem, but in the long list there Bccrae i to be payments to a number of persons which can not be cxplainel except upon tne theory that the money was used In some way to aist in pro moting or iu preventing lcgilation. This exposure has been threatened tor a long time, and however the facts which it contains may be explained, the publication seems to stand in a peculiar relation to an investigation which cer tain members of the House Committee on rdcific Railroad to-dsy endeavorsd to have ordered by the House. This commutes may bo very sincere In Us desire to have tho account of the raciCc Kailroads overhauled, but the circum stances under which tbe attempt to have an invfitigation ordered has been made, and the manner in which it is sought ts have the investigation made, have at least given color to the reports that the resolution cf inquiry it-elf partakes somewhat of the nature of stock-jobbing operations. At all events the most skillful master of put? and calls cculd not have devised a more ingenious plan for rr.&Ving it ccrta'n tbat the market valno of tin Hecks of the TaciCc Railroads should be moved cp and down on tbe stot k boards at tbe will of a fewmcnttan that which is presented by a sma'l mnjuiity of the House Committee on Pacific Railroads. This factioa of the committco docs not propose that Congress shall make the inquiry. It propoEis that Congress shall advocate IL It docs not even propose that the Interior Department, which Ie charged by the law with the supervis'on of matters relating to the land-grant railroads, shall make the investigation; but It prorojcs that a committee of experts net connected with tbe Got eminent or with Congress fhall be appointed at annual salaries of $j,WX) each with board, as the resolution puts It, and traveling expenses in clnded. to enter upon this drag-net investigation to which no limit and bounds are given as to sub ject matter and upon which no limitation as to time is fixvd. The resolution docs not state that the appointing power Is to designate tho brokers of f peculatlvc members of Congress as the persons wLosb&U constitute this commission of experts to keep the raclöc Railroad securities a certain foot-ball of Wall street for an indefinite time, but so far as appearances go such a proposition mljbt as well have been inserted. SThere are a good many ugly rumors In connee lion with this whole matter which are quite as sensational In their character as tha publicatloa of alleged facts and figures which has just been given to the press in New York. Thcophilus French himself, who lä the purported author of a r art of this interesting statement, went out of the ofSce of Commissioner of Railroads after certain specific charges had been made as to his own can duct of that office; charges moreover, which i a the minds of a good many persons were never satisfactorily answered. Another curious thing bout this movement on the part of the taction of the House Committee on I'ac'fic 1111roads lies in tho fact that this same com nvitteo has already reported to the House 1 bill framed after many months careful ex' amination, and as a result of the conscientious labors, so far as the fignres go, oi some of the moat eminent Government experts who can not rest under any possible suspicion oi stock jobbing. This bill is not only pendlDg, but it is before tbe noute, and with tho previous question ordered upon it and all amendments from tbe last session. It is the order of unfinished business, subject to be called up at any time by this very committee and it was supposed would have been called up to-day when the committee came in with this very extraordinary resolution which hassomctaiDg of the 6mack of the broker-shop about it and which, of course, if adopted, would render any action upon tho fundinj bill absurd. For If the Government is to an- . point a lot of experts with a life commission and expenses to examine the books and publish from time to time what they think stock is worth, and at some time in the Indefinite future to muke a report to Coneres, there would seem to bo no propriety in passing the funding biil. which proceeds, at least, upon the assumption that if cd acted it would be a final f ettlement of tbe whole business A great deal more will probably be beard of this curious resolution. Meanwhile for tho day it went over without action and with tbe debate uncompleted, because or the ex iiratlon cf the mornlDg tour. Tbe ipresentativ(s of the Pacific Railroads have undoubtedly been in the lobby, but, having been there, tbey know very well who e'so ha beea there, aad if an investigation of this sort Is to ba ordered it is not probable tbat the cry "woll" will be confined to one side ot the chamber. FIGHT BETWEEN LIGHTWEIGHTS SlcAullffe aud Gllmour Contend for the Interuatlouat Diamond l'rtze lteit. Lawrence, Mass , Jan. 15. One of the greatest prize-fights that ever took place in this country was fonght here last njght in the presence of a select few. Tbe contestants were Jack Mc AjlilTe, of Erooklyn, the champion light-weight of America, and Harry Gilmour, of Toronto, tbe light-weight champion of Canada. They fought for the Uolske international diamond prize belt for lightwcUhts, valued at.ShOCO, and a purse of t'M. In addition there was 1:1,000 put up Inside the ring on beta. The men were in.excellent coudition, and both scaled within the limit of 133 pounds. Twenty-eight rounds were fought, occupying one hour and fifty-two minutes. The fight was only finished by Gllmour falling senseless In the ring tinder the sledge-hammer blows ot McAulifle. There was considerable heavy fighting up to the fixth round, McAulilTo evidently coming out the better man. From the sixth to theltwenty-flfth round tho fortunes ot the men varied, and MoAulifiVs confidence was visibly increased. In the twenty-fifth round McAulifle started to do Gllmour up, but tho latter, whose face was pufled up like a foot-b.ll. fonght wl;h desperation an 1 tuocessfully withstood tho savage assaults ot bis antagonist. McAuIiffegot a little the best of tte twenty-Jxth round, but Gllmour was gamo, and, although almost done up, stood up ior tbe twenty-feveuth rouad, in which MeAulIffe had his own way and pounded his adversary without mercy. In the twenty-e'ghta round Gilmour was very sroKgy, and McAuilfTo pitched Into him, striking him at least ten heavy blows la the face. Gllmour fell to the floor exhausted, and could not terpond to the csll of "time." Me aulifle claimed the fight, and It was awarded to him. Gllmour

rtruggled to his feet and wanted to keep up the

fighting, but was not allowed to continue by his backers. He was most fearfully punished,' and, after the fight, waa put to bed with physicians In attendance on him. Pension.
