Fire destroyed an entire block of
buildings, Monday evening, opposite the

Two firemen were killed, two seriously
injured and four are mUsing.
Cadiz, Ohio, farmers say there never
hag been a season when there were more
of the Colorado potato bugs. They are
destioying potatoes as fast as they come
up. In some places farmers say the
bugs are even eating the thistles.
Hid recent matrimonial venture has
has had a sobering effect upon the Hon.
Benjamin Harrison. In an interview
some da8 ago, he expressed himself as
very doubtful of the election of a Re
publican candidate for president in No
vember next.
A Cleveland, Ohio, despatch says
that "in six months from this date the
Standard Oil Company will close its im
mense plant in that city and withdraw
one of the largest industries ef Cleve
laud." About 400 men will be thrown
out of work.
There is need that President Cleveland
should again ask congress to make prop
er provision for protecting the reserve
Congress has already assumed the re
sponsibility of inaction, and by so doing
has taken upon itself whatever risk or
bl i me may be incurred by a further is
sue of bonds and a failure to provide for
the retirement of the redundant and
dangerous greenbacks and treasury notes.
Th e Venezuelan government has agreed
to pay the tS.OOO demanded by Great
Britain for the Yuruan incident (the ar
rest and imprisonment of a British po
lice) officer, on condition that it is con
sidei e J. simply as indemnity for person
al damages, and not as affecting the
boundary dispute. It has, however not
consented to make a public apology to
Great Britain as a prerequisite to resump
tion of diplomatic relations.
Speaker Reed, who maintained a
decorous silence while McKinley's ad
vance agents were rampaging around
New Kugland, can contain himself no
longer as he views the grotesque spec
tacle of a boom which started out with
such tremendous impetuosity now care
fully balancing its precious self upon
a fence top for considerations of safety;
and he remarked en Monday last, in his
cutting style: "McKinley doesn't want
to be called a gold bug or a silver bug,
bo he has compromised on a straddle
bug."
Our currency, based as it is on gold
redemption, was never before so uni
formly good in every part of the Union.
The wages labor, paid in this currency,
are higher than in any other civilized
country. Under these circumstances:
what possible inducement can there be
for workmen, professional men, persons
with fixed salaries, or any other part of
our population unless it be those who
have silver bullion to sell, to change the
standard of value, thereby cutting down
wages and salaries one-half bringing the
whole business of the country into a con
dition of confusion and panic?
The claim of Mr. Henry A. Dupont
for the vacant seat in the senate from the
state of Delaware was decided adversely
to him on Friday by a majority of one
The result of all the legal and constitu
tional arguments for and against was
that the Republican senators to a man
voted in favor of the claim; that the
Democrats voted just as unanimously
against it; and that the Populists allied
themselves solidly on the Democratic
side, making the vote on the amend
ment, which declared that Mr. Dupont
was not entititled to the seat, SI to 30,
A second vote on the resolution thus re
sulted in exactly the same figures.
There was no attempt on the part of the
Republicans to postpone the decisive
issue.
The resignation of Judge Nelson of
the United States district of Minnesota
was received by President Cleveland at
the White House on Friday morning
and after very short consideration the
president decided to fill the vacancy by
the appointment of Judge Lochren with
out consultation with the latter. Judge
Nelson's resignation ws not unexpect
ed, as he has reached the age of retire
ment and has taken advantage of the
law which permits him to retain his sal
ary after leaving the bench. Ihe same
day President Cleveland sent to the sen
ate the following nominations: Wil
liam Lochren of Minnesota, vice S. R.
Nelson, resigned.
Dominic C. Murphy of Pennsylvania,
deputy commissioner of pensions, vice
William Lochren, resigned.
Napoleon J. T. Dana of New Hamp
shire to be first deputy commissioner of
pensions, vice Murphy.
Samuel Fetters, of Chester county,
has refused to receive his pension mon
ey from the government. The depart
ment officials say his case is only the
second of the kind that has come under
their observation since the war.
Fetters during the war contracted a
disease which his physicians pronounced
chronic, and he applied for and received
a good sized pension. This he drew
regularly until a short time ago, when
his health began to improve, and finally
he was completely restored to his form
er vigor. Then he wrote to the depart
ment to cease sending the pension.
This was not done, and when the next
pension day came he promptly sent the
monev back to Washington. Thinking
Fetters was insane the department sent
an inspector to investigate the case, and
the result is that his name has been ta
Jten off Ihe roll.
The Louisville Courier Journal prints
a letter from Secretary of the Treasury
Carlisle to Hon. John H. Jones, ol 1 res-
tonburg, Ky., in which Mr. Carlisle de
fines his jiot-ition on the monetary ques
tion as follows:
"My position upon this subject is
briefly this. I am opposed to the free
coinage of either gold or silver but iu fa
vor of unlimited coinage of both upon
terms of exact f quality. No discrimin
ation should be made in favor of one
metal and against the other, nor should
any discrimination be made in favor of
the holders of either gold or silver bul
lion and against the great body of the
people who own other kinds of property.
"It is scarcely necessary to say that
a gross discrimination would be made
between the two metals if the owners of
silver bullion were permitted to have
fifty-one or fifty-two cents worth of sil
ver coined and stamped as a dollar, when
the owners of gold bullion were required
to present 100 cents worth of gold in or
der to have their metal coined and
stamped as a dollar. The two metals are
coined upon terms of exact equality on
ly when a dollar's worth of silver is con
tained in the silver dollar and a dollar's
worth of gold is contained in the gold
dollar and when no more is charged for
the coinage of one than for the coinage
of the other."
Os Monday George Donaldson, a
banker and politician of Columbus, Ohio,
in an interview said: "The McKinley
men are going to see some real trouble
soon. If McKiniey is nominated on a
gold platform the delegates from "nine
western states are going to get up and
walk out of the convention. At the
head of the bolters will be Senator Teller
and his own state, Colorado, back of
him. But McKinley is not going to be
nominated. You may think he is, but
you will find out your mistake by this
time next month. The temporary or
ganization of the convention is bound
to be against him, because thirty one of
the forty-five members of the Republi
can national committee are opposed to
McKinley.
"One thing more. A scheme is on
whereby the opionents of the Canton
man will control the committee on cre
dentials, and then see where a lot of his
southern delegates will come in. Me
Kinley cannot count on those southern
darkies any way. The fellow who buys
them last generally gets them, if they
don't forget which side they last sold
out to. These sure things in poiltics
never pan out. Blaine bad a sure
thing on the nomination in 1870, Grant
in '80 and Sherman in 'SS, and none of
them got there."
Ex -Senator Plalt of New York, has
given out another statement in which he
says: "The McKinley managers have
undertaken to break the force of my
charge that his financial record shows
that he is an unsafe leader for the Re
publican party at this time, by print
ing extracts from his recent speeches
These extracts consist of a lot of general
phrases about the necessity of having a
currency as good as the best, of our
'keeping all our dollars equal in value,
and all that sort of thing. But the McKin
ley managers are away from the point
The point is not that McKinley has made
no remarks and cast no votes that tend
to the maintenance of good money, but
that he has made all sorts of remarks
and cast all sorts of votes.
"The Republican delegates, therefore.
should find a candidate who will take
office with the confidence of the coun
try and not with its apprehension and
distrust; who is known to be a free
agent and not mortgaged up to his eyes
with pledges that he can never perform
and expectations that can never be sat
isfied; who is safe and not erratic, con
servative and not impulsive, firm and
not impressionable. If these general
principles are agreed to. they render the
selection of Major McKinley impossi
ble."
The executive committee of the New
York Democracy has resolved to send a
committee to the Chicago convention
whose mission shall be "to urge the
adoption of a sound financial plank and
the nomination of a candidate whose
record and utterances fit him to stand
on such a platform." In this resolu
tion are summed up the whole duty and
policy of the Democratic party in this
campaign; and both the duty and the
policy have been made imperative by
the Republican canvass of expediency
which has found its chief inspiration in
the fact that its formo6t candidate has
been on all four sides of the currencv
question. Already the Republican can:
paign gives signs of weakening.
Democratic campaign upon the lines in
dicated by New York would offer the
highest possible guarantee of party sue
cess and in any event would contribute
confidence and strength to all business
interests.
Last week we tripped up the Gosling'
figures when it attempted to explain the
causes of the hard times and this week
in reply, it quotes a long article of Hen
ry Hall, in . the Pittsburg Times which
abounds in figures but not in facts, th
gist of which is in the declaration that
''If the Wilson bill were doing what the
McKinley bill did producing revenue
to meet expenses " and this in face of
the fact that at the end of Harrison'
administration the treasury was empty
the $100,000,000 surplus left by Cleve
land's former administration gone, and
the plates prepared for printing bonds to
meet the necessities of the government
Mr. Hall, like the Gosling, evidently
bases his statements on the assumption
that the people have short memories.
It is announced that Senator Yorhees
of Indiana will retire from public life at
the end of his present term. His fail
ing health has given his friends con
cern for more than a year past. It as
believed that if his health will permit he
will seek to recover strength by a trip to
Europe.

There a e Democratic members of tne
A. P. A., but if those who attended the
meetings of the supremo council of that
or" atiiz-rttion, in Washington this week,
are not convinced that they are out of
their element it is difficult to imagine
what would convince them. Not being

Secretary OIney has been using some
plain language to pain in connection
with those Americans it is proposed to
execute as the result of a court martial
a Cuba, and he is prepared to talk still
lainer if necessary to prevent punish
ment out of proportion to their offense
beiDg given them at the civil trial which
pain has promised them.
Not a single Democratic member of
the house committee on interstate and
foreign commerce voted for the Mahon
Nicaragua canal bill, which was mis
week ordered to be favorably reported to
the house by that committee. That is
creditable to the Democrats on that
committee. It is a Republican bill.
founded upon the Republican idea of
public subsidies for private enterprise
It might as well appropriate f HK.i,UlHi,-
000 outright as to provide for govern
ment guarantee of bonds to that amount,
as it does, so far as the final result is
concerned. With the example of the
Pacific railroads before them the people
of the country should never endorse
another scheme to loan the public credit
to private corporations. If congress re
gards the -building of the Nicaragua
canal as a public necessity le' it provide
for buying the interest of the private
company and for having the canal built
by the government. e have already

Czar Reed has not yet indicated whether
he will allow this bill to pass at this ses
sion. t .
Senator Smith of N. J., returned to
ashington more convinced than ever
that the Democrat can win this year if
they exercise care and discretion
Speaking of the state convention in New
Jersey he said: "The Democrats gath
ered at Trenton with as much vim and
spirit, as they ever did. there were
plenty of candidates for delegates to the
national convention, and among the
rank and Hie there wa3 a very general
opinion that if the national convention
would only do the right thing on the
money question there was hope of carry
ing New York, and that Connecticut
and New Jersey would certainly be in the
Democratic fold.
Railroad men as a rule regard politi
cal conventions merely for the monev
they put into their coffers by the increase
in travel. Hence, these words of a
prominent railroader, now iu Washing
ton. contain not a little encouragen t
for Democrats: "The premature caj-
ture of the Republican nomination by
McKinley is killing interest in the St
Louis convention, but the railroads will
do much better business on account of
the Chicago convention. The contest
over the financial question will be sure
to attract interest and spectators, aud al
though Chicago didn't know it at the
time, she got the best convention so far
as at endance concerned
The Democratic senators Harris,
est and v aithaii wno form the ma
jority of the subcommittee of the senate
finance committee which has been de
signated by Senator Morrill, that foxy
old Republican, to investigate the issues
of bonds by this administration, under
the resolution adopted by the senate, are
too smart to fall into the trap which has
been set for them by the Repui licans
They were selected because of their be
ing silver Democrats, with the hope that
they would use the investigation to widen
the financial breach in the Democratic
party. The other memliers of the sub
committee are Jones, of Nevada, and
Piatt of Oonnec'icut. Secretary Car
lisle notified the committee as soon as
it was named that he would render all
possible assistance. He has been asked
to submit a statement is writing cover
ing all the tond issues, and from that
the committee will decide whether it
wishes to examine Mr. Carlisle personal
ly. Representative Livingston, of Ga ,
who has just returned from his home,
says: "I do not pretend to speak for
any other state, but the Democrats of
Georgia do not know how to bolt the
regular ticket, and we are not going to
learn at the coming election. If we are
.outvoted in the convention we will re
turn home and support the nominee,
and we expect the other fellows to do
likewise." m.
Tried to Mioot the Corpse.
York, Pa., May 17. An uproar was
created to-day at the funeral of George
Brougher by his son-in-law, Oscar Blas
ser. The latter insisted that he could
not be happy until he had shot a few
bullets into the corpse. Quiet remon
strances were of uo avail aud when Blas
se, brandished his weapon and declared
he would shoot the dead man. the ex
citement among the people present be
came intense. Ever since Blasser first
paid attentions to Brougher's daughter
there had been ill feeling between the
two men, and to-day's scene was the
culmination. In the midst of the tu
mult which he created, a policeman ap
peared and arrested him. He was of
fered his liberty if he would go home
and quiet down, but Blasser declared he
would not rest till he had shot the dead
man. He was then locked up. Blasser
is a member of Ridge Avenue Methodist
Church and his conduct created a sen
sation. More Trouble With Indians.
Washington, May 17. Trouble be
tween the Indians on the Togue River
Reservation in Montana and the white
6ettlers in the neigbborbeod is not im
probable and troops have been asked for
to avert a possible outbreak. This is
the result of depredations committed by
the Indians on the cattle of the whites,
and the situation now is such that Cap
tain W. H. Stouch, the acting agent here,
has notified Commissioner of Indian Af
fairs Browning of the strained condition
and asked for a detail of two troops of
cavalry to be sent to the reservation to
preserve order. This recommendation
has been forwarded to the secretary of
war for action.
The troops are asked to co-operate
with the agency authorities in main
taining order and restraining and pre
venting the Indians from committing
further depredations on the stock. In
urging this request, Acting Secretary of
the Interior Sims asks that this military
assistance be given for so long a lime
as may be deemed necessary.

Frankfort, Kan., May 17 The most
desuuciive c clone that ever visiud this
p-.ition of the state ft uck this city about
5 o'clock this afternoon. The cyclone
was preceded by a heavyfall of rain and
hail. Several of the farm houses were
destroyed befoie the storm e ch d the
city. Nearly fifty residences, lesides
barns aud ou'buildings, were totally de
stroyed in this city. Many of them were
the finest in the city. At least 200 peo
ple are rendered homeless. No one was
killed, so far as learned.
The Methodist and Christian churches
are total wrecks. Many buildings are
slightly damaged. The storm passed on
to the northeast, dealing destruction in
its path, but the track of the storm is
only about eight rods wide. It is re
ported that the storm also did much
damage near Bigelow -and at Vleiu j j
I he entire western part of this city is
razed to the ground.
Seneca, Kan.. May 17 A cyclone
struck this place at 7 o'clock to night
aud destroyed one-third of the residence

ple are homeless. The dead are two
children of M. Everheea, two children
of John McConnell and a son of Peter
Assemacher.
Saletha, .Kan., May 17. Twenty-
five people were injured and twenty res
idences destroyed by a cyclone here this
evening.
Two Dead, Others May Hie.
McDonald, Pa., May 5 A fire en
tailing the loss of two lives and the pro
bably fatal burning of five children oc
curred at McDonald to-day. A large
two-story dwelling was totally destroyed,
and Mrs. James Cad a mi re and her in
fant child were burned to death. Five
other small children who were in the
house at thetime ran to aid their mother,
and were all so badly burned that but
little hope U enteitained for their recov
ery. The cause of the sad tragedy was
the fatal oil can, the contents of which
the mother was using to hasten the fire
in the kitchen stove. She was jus-t in
the act of pouring the oil in the stove
when a terrific explosion followed, and
iu a ilashr the entire room was like a
roaring furnace.
Before the people living in the near
est houses could rush to the aid of the
unfortunate family all that remained in
the building was the charred corpse of
the mother and tnat of the baby in her
arms. The children were dragged from
the room with their clothing ablaze and
were in the most pitiable condition.
VI mil Vt recks a Circus.
Elizabeth, N. J., May IS Id a wind I
storm that pa?sed over this section this ;
" " l
us was in proeres, and lue tents were
crowded with fiectators, principally wo
meDand children. The wind caught up
the roof canvases and ripped them from
their anchor'mgs. Then the Uttered por
tions fell down into the middle of the
amphitheatre, causing a panic. Wo
men and children ran in all directions,
shouting frantically. The poles came
tumbling down and crashed upon the
feits, and the racket that followed stam
peded the horses that had been perform
ing. Fortunately no one was injured, al
though there were hundreds of narrow
escapes. Police Sergeant James Walsh
f-avoil several lives at the risk of bis own
by diverting the course of the largest
tent pole, which was falling toward a
group of women and children who were
too badly scared to move. Only one
small tent escaped destruction and the
circus will have to play without a cover
for a week or ten days. The loss will
le $3,000.
The Suttan in a I'auic.
Constantinople, May 17. The Sultan
has not yet recovered from the fright in
to which he was thrown by the news of
the assassination of the Shah of Persia.
The arrests which ttegan almost immedi
ately upon the receipt of the intelli
gence have contiuued during the past
two weeks, until now more than 1,500
Armenians have been taken into custo
dy. Of this number 52 have been ex
iled to Anatolia. Notwithstanding the
fact that so many Armenians have been
arrested, the agitation against the Sul
tan is rather among the Young Turks
than the Armenians. A number of
Young Turks have also been arrested,
and 10 of them have been sent with the
exiled Armenians to Anatolia. Seventy-three
Turkish students at the milita
ry college at Kuleliah have been rrrest
ed, but the reason therefor is not known.
The students of the Armenian college at
Galata have each been sentenced to 20
years' imprisonment for having in their
possession subscription lists for the re
lief of the Armenians in Zeitoun.
Dragged to Death.
New IJloorufield, Pa., May IS. Na
than Dorman, aged about 3S years, met
a fearful death in Watts township, this
county, Friday afternoon last. In com
pany with a gentleman named Hamma
ker, he was driving along the road, re
turning from a Gshing excursion. The
horse became frightened and ran off.
Harnmaker jumped from the carriage
and escaped serious injury. Dorman
attempted to do tae same, but was less
fortunate. His ankle caught between
the spokes of the rapidly revolving wheel
and he was dragged a distance of a mile
and a half. The animal ran at its ut
most speed and when liberated Dorman
was beyond medical aid. He survived
hours and was conscious till death re
lieved his untold suffering. He narra
ted clearly the details of the accident.
Dorman was an employe of the Phoe
nix ville Bridge company and was widely
known in many sections of the countv
while employed constructing bridges.
His funeral took place yesterday.
Twenlj llorses Burned.
Atlanta, May 18. The Markham
House was burned last night, loss $300,
000. The fire started in a restaurant on
Decatur 6treet and quickly spread to
Patterson's livery stables, Patterson got
out some of his horses, but twenty were
burned to death. Falling telegraph
poles broke the electric light and trolley
wires, causing consternation among the
thousands of spectators who choked up
the streets. No one, however, was in
juied by the wires. On the railroad
tracks within fifty feet of the Markham
House was a shed in which 3,000 gallons
of oil were stored. A stream wag kept
playing on this shed constantly and it
was sayed. A negro was killed. No
body else was hurt.
