FBKNSBfRO, CAMBRIA CO., PA., FRIDAY. JUNE 22, ltfU. Internal war, because of a dis puted succession to the tliroDe, is threatened iu Morrocco. Thomas M. Bayxe, Ex Congressman of I'ittstmrg. committed suicide at his house in Washington city on Saturday by shooting himself through the head. John (.. Ckimi-, judge ot the court of common pleas for New London county, commuted suicide by shooting at his home in New London, Conn. lVspond encv was the cause. William E. Dklasky, a prominent at torney, of Buffalo, was shot and killed in his room by George Iiartliolomy, who claims to be an injured husband. Bar tholomy surrenlered to the police. Smmi elCoe was refuse.1 a drink by a bartender in Xyack, X. Y., and attempt ed to blow up the building with dyna mite. He defends himself on the ground that he wanted to elevate the saloon. Is the last iaMie of the Gallitzin Vin dicotar, Jamef W. Kilduff, its editor, publishes a call for "a county conven tion ot tlie People's jiarty men, reform ers and others," to meet at Gallitzin on Tuesday June, 2t'.th. Theokore IIavemeyer and several senators, including Senator Brice, testi fied before the sugar investigating com mittee on Friday. Mr. Brice especially denied that he had made investments prompted by the tariff bill. At the Centre county Republican con vention, held at Bellefonte on Monday, Judge Furst, who was a candidate for renomination for president judge in the Centre Huntingdon district was defeated, the convention declaring for John G. 1ajg for president judge. Losing his own county practically takes Judge Furst out of the race. President Cleveland has signed the New York and New Jersey bridge bill. The bridge will give ten railroads direct entrance into New York City and cir cumvent the dangers, delays and dis comforts of ferry navigation. The pro ject is of interest and importance to the entire country and it will be a notable day when it is completed. There is much dissatisfaction among Democrats in the house over the sugar schedule of the tariff bill as it has been adopted by the senate and the predic tion is freely made by Democrats that the house will never argee toil in its pres ent shape. It is argued by its oppo nents that the tariff on refined sugar is prohibitive and will result in no possi ble lienelit for anybody except the sugar trust, and an attempt is now being made to organize the Democrats in the house against it and in favor of free refined sugar. A kill introduced in the house of representatives last week to regulate sleeping cars has aroused opH;ilion from the Pullman and Wagner com panies, and they h ave asked the com merce committee to give them a hear ing on it. The bill limits the rates to one half of one cent a mile for lower lrths, and one-third of one cent a inle for upper berths, and would coniM-l the company to furnish safes and assume responsibility for Valuables. The sleeping car interests will be heard on June lY.th. A disatch from Topeka, Kansas, Saturday, says: Reports from the western third of Kansas are very dis couraging, and show the wheat crop of that section to le a total failure. Unless the conditions immediately change there will lie no corn raised. In many coun ties there has Ieen no rain for more than a year, with the exception of light showers. The eople of that country are illy prepared to withstand another crop failure. Many farmers are without means to buy provisions to tide them over another year, and the prosjiect of another failure will force many to leave the couutry. Farmers who give attention to the hay crop will pick up fortunes as the seasons come; and go. Last year the hay harvest was worth $170,SSi,i7i, w hile corn alone exceeded those figures, The crop ting worth 2l:i,171,3Sl only and potatoes tlOS.oGl.M'l. The farm er can see in this that hay is really the most important crop on the average American farm, as the imports amount ed to tolt',640 more. By following pro fitable lines the farmer can easily meas ure up his chances for an income much higher than he now accepts. With wheat and corn held back by a surplus far above the demand and at the mercy of an arbitrary tariff, there is everything in doing the other thing while the sun shines. Dlrixg the last ten months the im ports of block tin in the United States amounted to nearly 10,000,000 pounds, paying a duty of four cents a pound. This duty on tin is one of the beauties of McKinleyism. In order to encour age and protect an infant industry the duty on tinplate was doubled, and the duty of four cents a pound was placed on the material with which the plates are coated for the sake of protecting the imaginary tin mines of Dakota. The worst of the business is that the du ty on block tin falls heavily on some American industries of which it is the raw material. Still, the country is told that the McKinley tariff is so perfect a model of legislation that the Democrats are very wicked in attempting to disturb it- The New York World has rendered a public service by printing a list of the representatives who have obtained leaves of absence during the pat two months. together with the reasons assigned for such absence. A glance at the impos ing record shows a remarkable amount of sickness among the eopIe's represen tatiles for which it is difficult to imagine any adequate cause Washington l ing one of the most healthful of cities, anil the ventilation of the capitol leing no longer available as an excuse for invalid ism. But the report oil cases of sickness, if ojieu to the suspicion of malingering, show at le.-ist a deference toj public senti ment whieh is utterly lacking in the cases of those members of the house who unblushingly assign business" as the reason for their abandonment of the public service. It would be interesting to know the code of equity or ethics which guides the public servant who, having put his private affairs Ix-fore the public interests which he has sworn to uphold, asks to le excused from the docking process, which, in truth, is a most inadequate enalty for his neglect of duty. The enforcement of the din-king law has. however, already had a wholesome effect; but evidently it is susceptible of Ix-ing made more rig id with manifest gain to the morale of the public service. It ought to lie so enforced as to require that every excuse shall be well attested; and leave of d sence should only Ie granted for causes? which may be of an imjierative charac ter. Tme State Board of Health at its last regular meeting, held in I-aneaster, adopted two resolutions which Kiut the way to larger security against two dis eases, the spread of which might le pre vented by proper measures of precaution. The recommendations of the board of health should tie followed by such leg islation as might tie necessary to make them operative. Their is hardly a doubt that the ravages of tulerc-ulous disease may be held in check, as has I teen the ravages of smallpox, by preventive meth ods, backed up by an educated public understanding of their etlicacy. The resolutions of the board of health are as follows: Resolved. That it is the sense of the state board of health of Pennsylvania that the time has come when the state should provide hospital accommodations for persons suffering from pulmonary tuberculosis in the case of those who cannot lie properly cared for iu their own homes, and who through careless ness might lie dangerous to the com munity at large. It is believed that the establishment of such hospitals might lie of great value in educating the ieople. Resolved. That it is the sense of the state board of health of Pennsylvania that all inmates of prisons, reformato ries, almshouses, hospitals, schools and other public institutions be vaccinated immediately on admission. A few days ago Colonel A. I-. Conger, of Ohio, ex-member of the Republican National Committee put a damper on the presidential aspiration, of governor McKinley. He is quoted as saying: McKinley could not carry a single state in the Union upon the McKinley law in lS'.t, and I believe that nine tenths of the business men of the coun try will concur with me in the view that the McKinley tariff is not only incon sistent, but not iu line with the busi ness sentiments of our jieople. We lost the campaign of lS'.eJ on the McKinley law, and we will lose that of ls'.i' ,f 1. 1 j it t law lie the paramount issue. This is not only true, says the New York Wttrld, but a very moderate state ment of the truth. It is a fact common ly ignored by the McKiuleyites that McKinleyism was not only voted down overwhelmingly by the jieople but has never lieen indorsed by a Republican national convention. The conven tions of 1S8S and lS'.'J prom promised lower duties instead of higher, and the McKinley law is on the statute liooks only because the Republican ma jority in Congre-s weakly or corruptly surrendered to the trusts the privilege of writing their demands into the bill. If no other issue is found and the Re publicans go to the country with a de mand that they lie allowed to reopen the taiiff agitation and re-enact the McKinley bill, they will be beaten in lSl'o" as bad ly as in lS'.H) and 1S'.2. Advices from Yokohama, dated May 22d, say that reports from Hong Kong, Canton and other cities in that section give alarming accounts of a great plague which has lieen raging since the latter part of March. Steamers refuse to touch at Hong Kong for either passen gers or freight, and panic reigns in that city. The scourge carries off whole families during a night, and the terrified Chinese, who are the principal victims, spend their time in parading the street, night and day, praying to their Josses. The mortality is fearful, reachingeighty per cent, in some localities, and the disease is spreading despite the efforts of the authorities to check its growth. Attending physicians say it is almost identical with the great I-omlon plague of the seventeenth century and is traceable to the filthy habits of the Chi nese and the wretchedly inadequate sys tem of drainage. The statistics obtain able are unreliable, but the prosjiects are that whole districts will be depopulated before the spread of the disease is stopped. On Tuesday the Pittsburg Pension I Office made the largest single payment of a pension that has been made for many years, if not in the eatire history of the office. It was for 18,808,07, and was iu favor of Thomas L. Hurst, of Warren, Pa., who is now insane. It was made payable to II. K. McC'almout, of Warren, as commissioner. The jien sion is rated at $S jier month from June 24, 1SC3, 120 a mouth from June 18f.fi. 24 from June 4, 1872, and f:0 from March 3, 1883. Mr. Hurst was a private in Company C, Pennsylvania Washington Letter. Wafhincton. D. C., June 10. 1S0I. President Cleveland's health is once more the text upon which the Washing ton exaggerators are preaching the same old sermons. He called in a doctor this week liecause of a little trouble with his stomach, such as most of us are liable to have at this season, and the dix-tur told him to keep quiet for a few days. That is the whole unadorned storv. He has not stopped transacting business for a single day. He only cut down the amount of work he usually dots for a day or two, in order to comply with the doctors orders, and he is now all right again; but the sermons will lie kept up until a new text is found. Recognizing the fact that the Demo cratic senators had about exhausted their stock of patience and were aliout to force matters. Senator Aldrich, on behalf of the Republican Senators proposed to Senator Harris that Monday, June 25, iie set as the date for taking the final vote on the tariff bill. Senator Harris declined to accept, because he is satis fied that a vote can iie reached In-fore that date, or certainly not later, without any agreement. The income tax is the only thing remaining to lie disjtoscd of that is likely to consume much time. Senator Hill will make a long speech against it, but, like the rest of the bill, it cannot lie defeated, liecause the votes to pass it have lieen pledged. The delay of the senate in passing the tariff bill will make it necessary to pass a joint resolution extending the appro priation bills for the current fiscal year into the new one that begins July 1. as not a single one of the regular appro priation bills has lieen touched by the senate, although eight of them have lieen passed by the house and the rest of them could lie disposed of in the next two weeks if the senate was ready tor them. Assistant Secretary Hamlin, of the treasury department, has gone to the Pacific coast upon a somewhat jieculiar errand. For some years there have lieen constant scandals in connection with the administration of the customs service in that section, and, according to the re cent rejiorts of special agent sent out by the treasury department, so powerful have the combinations engaged iu smuggling opium, Chinese, etc., lie conie that persons who dareopose them or attempt to expose them are sued for litiel in the local courts and practically driven from their homes by the inlluence of the smugglers ujmiii the workings of the legal machinery. The reportsof the sjiecial agents have lieen of such an ex traordinary nature that Secretary Car lisle, who was unable liecause of pressure of other buisness to go himself, request ed Mr. Hamlin to go and make a thor ough investigation. Should he find things as they have lieen reported to be, steps will le taken that will teach some people a never to U? forgotten lesson. "I never exchanged a word with Mr. Cleveland or in his company in my life, and I have neverseen the man." These were the words used bv Mr. IIavemeyer, the president of the sugar trust, when asked by Senator Gray, chairman of the seuate investigating committee, whether he had held a conversation on Mr. I5en edict's acht in the summer of lS'.'l! with President Cleveland, as alleged by one of the uewspa;ercorreSiondents who has lieen indicted by the grand jury. No denial could jnissibly lie more con vincing than that, although no denial was needed to convince the American lieople that Grover Cleveland had never been a party to a bargain with the sugar trust or any other trust or jierson. He owes to the fact that he never would make bargains in politics some of the most persistent jiersonal enemies he has. Mr. IIavemeyer made another state ment that Democrats r-hould paste in their hats to spring on Republicans who ac cuse the Democrats of favoring the sugar trust. He was asked what profit the sugar trust would make if the sugar schedule liecanie a law. His reply was: "Aliout one fourth of what we make under the McKinley law." If taking away three-fourths of its profits can be called favoring the sugar tru.-t the iH-tn-ocratic party should not object to plead ing guilty to the charge. A sub-committee of live memlieis of the hr.nse committee on banking and currency began work to-day under special instructions irom that commit tee, ii ion a bill providing for a compre hensive sy.-tem of currency and bank ir.tr, an improvement upon the national banks. Although the sub-committee is directed to report this bill by the 27, inst., the committee does not expect it to lie acted upon at this session. It mere ly desires to get it ierfected and reported to the house, in order that it may be discussed by the jieople liefore the next session, m. I r a-lied Into an lielierp. St. John's, N. F. June 20. The Schooner Rose, lioiind from I-abrador for Conception bay, collided with an icclierg on Monday and went down al most immediately, carrying twelve per sons with her. The disaster occurred when the schooner was about eight miles off Partridge point. At the time of the collision there was a thick fog, and it was iniKssible for the lookout to see a ship's length ahead. The Rose had a crew of fifty five jer sons, who were IjouiuI to conception bay to carry on the cod fishing industry. The forty-three survivors juiiiied aooard the berg as soon as the collision took place, and remained there for several hours, suffering terribly. After they had almost abandoned hojie another fishing craft, which was Imund iu the same direction, hove iu sight, and after considerable trouble they were taken safely atioard and landed. The government has dis patched a steamer to take them to their destination. The survivors of the ill fated craft are entirely destitute, and an apjieal in their In-half for charity has lieen made. Nearly all the drowned were relatives of each other, and in two instances whole families were lost, while the oth ers that found a watery grave were the bread winers, iqioi; whom, large fami lies dejiended for their support. Three egroes Ljnrhed. Gallii-oi.is, ()., June 20. An organ ized baud of white caps composed of the leading farmers of Mason county, W. Ya., and numbering 75 men, raptured Archie, Bert and Wilbur Haines, three colored desjieradoes, who have lieen ter rorizing that vicinity, last night and Strung them up to a large sycamore tree. It seems that the farmers opposite here in West Virginia have been made the victims of thene villians, who stole their horses, sheep and cattle. They were seen stealing by several stockmen, but the latter were comjiciled to move on at the jioint of revolvers in the hands of the desjieradoes. This enraged the people of the neighborhood, and on Sunday they organized a lynching mob. with the aliove results. No arrests have lieen made and the probability is that the wnite caps will not tie molested by the authorities. Mas. Martha Needij.:, a widow of Melbourne, is uuder arrest charged with fatally jioisoniug live jiersous. Pennsylvania Operators are Firm. Philadelphia, June 18. The bitu minous coal operators of Central Penn sylvania held a meeting to day in this city. The committee of seven appoint ed to confer with the striking miners, reported the fruitless result of the con ference held at Altoona last week, and their action on that occasion was ap proved by the meeting. The operators then unanimously de cided to maintain the attitude which they have preserved from the very fust, that is refusing to pay higherwages than 40 cents per gross ton. There was not a single dissenting voice, the oierators U'ing all of the opinion that thev can not afford to grant the strikers demand. Mr. E. J. Berwind, who presided stated sulisequently that the meeting had lieen entirely harmonious, and there was only one opinion as to the ad visability of continuing to follow the rou i ge of action outlined at former meet ings of the ojierators. Work at the mines will lie resumed with new men as fast as they can be secured. The strike in Central Pennsylvania will thus lie prolonged, and, judging by the oiierators to-day, will not terminate until the strikers give in, or unless their places have been filled by new men. The Columbus agreement for a general resumption of mining to day did not apply to the Central Pennsylvania re gion, for the reasou that these oierators were not represented at the meeting in Columbus. Terrible Disaster. Titorr.tr (Austrian Silesia), June lo. A terrible disaster, involving great loss of life, is rejMirted from Karwiu. Full details have not yet reached here, but it it is lieliewed that at least 2H! miners have lieen killed. An explosion of firedamp took place last night at 10 o'clock in a pit of the Franzisca mines at the place mentioned. The first explosion was almost imme diately followed by a series of other ex plosions in the mines, the most disas trous of the latter lieing in the Johannes pit, where eighty miners were killed. A rescue party, which descended into one of the pits at o'clock this morning also jierished. The ventilator shafts of several of the pits were Destroyed 'md fire spread in all directions. Assistance has lieen sent to the scene from all directions. The Francises and Johannes mines are owned bv Couut Yon Iarisch. Charged With Bribery. Pottsyii.i.e, Pa., June 1.. Charles F. Allen, one of tiie Republican county commissioners elected last' fall, is on trial liefore Judge Weidam for bribery and violating the election laws in the last campaign. It took two hours to draw a jury. The counsel for the de fense consists of three prominent law yers, while District Attorney Ryan is as sisted by two leading members of the Schuylkill county bar. The court room has lieen crowded at both sessions today, politicians predominating. The sensation of to-day's proceedings was the statement made in o-n court that the witnesses for the common wealth were lieing intimidated. Judge Weidam ruled that he would hear testi mony on this matter later. Sews from the Arrllr Regions. Philadelihia, June 15. The first news from the Arctic regions since Peary invaded it was brought to this port to day by Captain Peterson, of the bark Silicon, the first of the tleet of far north traders to arrive since last year. Cap tain Peterson says the past winter in Greenland was an unusual severe one. The Esquimaux in that region made frequent excursions up the coast, com municating with others, but none had heard anything of the Peary exploring party. The general lielief among them was that little, if any, progress could lie made until very late in the season. The lielief is that any attempts to reach the liole this year would tie foolhardy and result in the loss of the lives of all at tempting it. The Armor Plate Frauds. Washington, Juue IS. The examin ation of Charles E. Still, the Carnegie workman, as to armor plate frauds, promises to last throughout the wt-k. He was again before the investigating committee today identifying sjieciiic iriegularities tin the books and reports. Sill said that up to the noon recess oniy thirteen honest reports had lieeu found iu a total of aliout SOU examined. These reports cover the detailed process of treatment to which the armor plates were submitted. Mr. Cuminiugs says the detailed examination will liear out Sill's general statement that from 75 to t'O per rent of the work was passed on "fake reiiorts." Hustled o(T by Soldiers. Komi McA lister, I. T., June 17. United States troops are putting out of the nation all intruders and jieople who have no occupation or have refused to take out permits. It is estimated that at tleast GO prominent teople of this town, who have lieen classed as intru ders, will lie transported to the Arkansas line and warned not to return under se vere iieualty, Several hundred intruders from various parts of the nation have been ordered to show cause why they should not lie removed. Intense ex citement among the non-citizens is lie ing manifested relative to the intruder question. Tragical Doings of a Drunken Painter. Gland Rapids, Mich, June 15. Will iam Henshaw, a drunken painter, to day tried to kill his wife and children, fatally shot his his father in law, Jacob Sutton, and then blew his own brains out. Recently Mrs. Henshaw instituted divorce proceedings and this provoked today's tragedy. This morning Hen shaw went to Sutton's house and shot the old man twice iu the head. He then crossed the street to his wife's house and tried to break in. Failing in this, he tired two shots at the woman and her children, and then sat down on the porch and blew out his own brains.
