f. Soldier and Statesman Kept in Seclusion. HE FEARS ASSASSINATION. Mental Maladr Tartly Dae to Arroyo". Attempt on III Life aod Subsequent Discovery of n Political Plot .Nulur of .Malady. "President Diaz will never rule Mexico aain," said a prominent army of iicer and a close friend of the president, the other day, 'Tor he is insane and the doctors have no hope of his recovery." Rumors of a like nature have been rife in the city ever since the president hurriedly left the capital two month-; ago without giving any official notice of his departure. It is now pretty generally believed he was hurried out of the city by those close to him to keep from the public the fact that his mind was badly affected. The president's malady takes the form of a great dread that some one is going to kill him. and he believes that assassins are hidden in his winter residence here, the castle of Chapul tepee. One of the doctors attendant upon General Diaz said a few days ago that the old man appears quite childish, and that the strong will that mid" a nation out of a disorganized conglomeration of states people, by robbers, cut-throats and political intriguers, has completely broken down and left th.? old man as helpless as a child. All there is left of his former strong self is his obs'tinate icfu.-al to ccme back to Chapultepec cast"'. A member of the legislature ami a man who has been in close touch with the president for years, said this week: "The present malady of General Diaz commenced to show itself in slight eccentricities some three or four wars ago when an attempt was made upon his life by a drunken tailor named Arroyo. At the time the general public attached no great importance to this incident, nor did they think the president did. But the event had a significance which the public did not see, for Arroyo was but the tool in the hands of others who wished to get Diaz out of the way so that another prominent official might become president." Threaten Son of Scnufor. The police officials have made public the details of an attempt to swindle Charles W. Clark, son of United States Senator A. YV. ("lark, of Butte. Mont., out of $". mm). Mr. Clark a few days ago received a letter directing him to send the money in small bills to 'Wyoz." Butte postotliee. The writer added significantly that he was a. dead shot. The letter was turned over t the postotliee authorities. The genera: delivery window was watt ht'd for several days, and finally a small boy called for a package addies.-cd to "Wyoz." He was arrested and IU'Stioned. He said a masked man had given him 'S cents to call for the package. He proved his innocence. I'usli the Impfiii'linient a. The Court of Impeachment has begun its session at Raleigh, N. C. Both judges, Finches and Douglas, were present. William A. Guthrie, chief counsel for the impeachment managers, introduced us the first evidence, the official oaths of the impeached judges and a certified copy of the records in the White case, also a copy of the judgment and mandamus in the case. He then presented a letter from White's counsel making demand on the state treasurer for money. .1. C. L. Harris, White's attorney, testified he had failed to get the money from the treasurer and had applied to the Supreme Court for a mandamus. Perish Id Kiirstliic Dam. Two dams at Wanskuck, just north of Providence. R. L. burst, carrying away two wooden buildings, containing nine persons. Miss Emily YVhimpey and a man were carried down the stream on a raft. They caught in a wire fence. The firemen shouted to Miss Whimpey to hold to the wire. A heavy timber struck her in the back of the neck and she was carried under and was not seen afterward. The man was saved. Cow Chase Doctor a .Mile. Dr. Gysel. a veterinarv surgeon living at 350 Ninety-first street, Chicago, was called to the home of John Yondorf, 334 Ninety-lirst street, to treat a mad cow. The doctor was pursued nearly a mile by the cow. which had created great excitement in the neighborhood during two days. The cow. after running nearly a mile, gave up the chase. Dr. Gysel reported the matter to the police. Hanks la Michigan Pro per. Banking Commissioner Maitz has issued a statement showing that on Feb. 5, the date of the last call for reports, the state banks of Michigan had aggregated loans and discounts, stock bonds and securities of $103.279,439; commercial deposits, $3S,675,1C8; savings deposits, $75,304,324. Claim HUm I Not Uullty. Mrs. Addie S. Richardson, Indicted at Savannah, Mo., for murder in the first degree, appeared in court and pleaded not guilty to the charge of shooting and instantly killing her husband, the late Frank L. Richardson, the millionaire merchant. She was in much better spirits than at any time since the crime was committed because she learned that the court would not send her to jail. A bond of $20,000 had been decided upon, which John D. Richardson of Chicago had arranged to furnish. Convene Cherokee IgUlatnre. Chief Buffington of Muskogee, I. T., has issued a proclamation convening the Cherokee legislature in extra session May 2, 1001. for the purpose of canvassing the votes of the recent treaty with the United States.

The value of the rock has not been definitely ascertained, but without doubt specimens of the rock show gold at the proportion of $15.000 to the ton. and considerable quartz has been removed from a ledge carrying between $20,000 and $o0.000 to the ton.

Two hundred boys of the Central high school of Isuffalo went on a strike, in "which they have the sympathy of an equal number of girl pupils in the school. The strike was caused by the enforcement of a rule which long has been a dead letter. This rule forbids the boys and girls: from having any communication together in the halls, (lass rooms or study rooms. The pupils claim the enforcement of the rule robs school life of its pleasures'. Ills; Starch Fa tory Hum. The largest corn starch factory in the Fnited States, which is located in Kankakee. 111., was destroyed by fire Tuesday, the fire being caused by an explosion in the packing department.

IMR& HARRIÖ9H the distinguished dead were shown at the federal building, and most of the downtown business blocks put Hags at half-mast and made other outward manifestations of mourning. None of (leneral Harrison's grown children was present at his death. Neither Colonel Kussel Harrison nor Mrs. McKee had reached the city, although both were hurrying to the North Delaware street home as fast as steam would bear them. Elizabeth, the general's little daughter, had been taken from the sickroom by her nurse before her father expired. The group at the bedside included Mrs. Harrison, V. H. H. Miller, Samuel Miller, his son; Rev. M. I Haines, pastor of the First Presbyterian church, which Gen. Harrison had attended for so many years; Secretary Tibbett, Drs. Jameson and Dorsey, Col. Dan Ransdd.. 3er-geant-at-arms of the United States senate and a close personal friend of the dead ex-president; Clifford Arrick and the two nurses who have been in constant attendance at his bedside. Gen. Harrison's two sisters and an aunt were also present. Mrs. Harrison knelt at the right side of the bed, her husband's right hand grasped in her own, while Dr. Jameson held the left hand of the dying man, counting the feeble pulse beats. In a few moments after the friends "Had been summoned to the room Dr. Jameson said in a whisper; "It is over." The impressive silence that fell on the sorrowing watchers was broken by the voice of Dr. Haines, raised in prayer, mingled with the sobs of the mourners. Steps were at once taken to notify the absent friends and relatives. The first telegram sent to Washington was
A Silent Campaigner.
In the winter of l$9t, when there was conIderatde talk of again nominating Harrison, he preserved a discreet silence. Colonel John C-.

The Itepuhlican stilt.- mimit tee hel.l a meeting, and it waa understood that the slightest effort on the part of Indiana would start a big hall rolling for Harrison.

They shrewdly secured the passage of Joint resolution expressing the desire that Indiana should be for Harrison if he would
Earner ojf Enormous Fees.

To fijjl.t the case out in court meant several years of litigation and expensive costs, and they finally agreed to submit the whole matter to General Harrison and abide by his decision. The attorneys went to Indiana ixdis and jpent a day in argutni; the two sides of the controversy. They submitted briefs and went home. Within a short time General Harrison gave his decision, which was accepted as final. Iiis fee in this case was $10,000.

Jameson was called anil diagnosed the case as an attack of the grip. He thought it was due to the fact that the general in Iiis apparent health had probably exposed himself more than he should have done. The attack was not regarded seriously. It was not until Friday that the general made any complaint that indicated an illness more serious than the grip. On Friday he complained of a pain in his left lung and it was then that his physician foresaw that there might be danger of pneumonia. GKN. IIAKKIMVS CAKKKK. KgBii l.lf tn Farm.

This j resolution created much indignation in the ranks of Harrison's friends, for they saw the purjiose of it. The resolution was presented to General Harrison, and it did exactly what ti McKinley men knew it would do forced h.s hand. He declared his name must not le used. No oue douhts the general's sincerity In this matter, but. on the other hand, there is no question that he would have continued to remain silent If there had been a movement over the country to nominate him.

He was retained by the Indianapolis Street railway company in its litigation with the city aa to charter rights, and there was some little feeling at tie time over the fact tliat a man who hail ticeii so highly honored by the city and atate should accept employment in a ease against the people's interest. However, the general's logic in the case was accepted aa good law. The general made several trips to New York and Washington in connection with board meetings of the Presbyterian church.
