AN ATTACK ON THE H'EiHLEI BILL
Under the rules the Tote on the silver
bill trill be taken in the House at 3 o'clock
to-day. The free coinage advocates aie
working hard to deleat the Republican
caucus measure, no amendment being al
lowed. The debate upon the question in
the Senate still occupies almost the entire
attention of that body.
IEFrCIALTEI.E0R.Ot TO THE DISIUTCII.1
Washington, June 6. The silver men
in the House are very hopeful that they
will be able to defeat the passage of the Re
publican caucus bill to-morrow by indirect
means, it not by a direct vote against it
They have already arranged a plan of action.
They will at the proper time move to re
commit the bill to the Committee on Coinage,
"Weights and Measures with instructions to
bring in a free coinage bill.
The Republicans are prepared to check
mate this move, and will endeavor to put
the bill agreed to in caucusTuesday through
the House just as it stands now. It is well
known that the Senators are quite angry
with the House for taking the lead in silver
as well as tariff legislation, and have taken
steps to notify Speaker Reed and his lien
tenants that it would be just as well for the
House to go a little slow in the matter.
THE MINNESOTA IDEA.
Lind, of Minnesota, was the first speaker
in the House to-day. He represented, he
said, an agricultural district, the farmers of
which were not poor, but not wholly pros
perous. The depressed condition was due
f to the low prices of agricultnral products.
He believed that prices were affected by the
'amount of money in circulation. The in
crease of circulation advanced prices, and
shrinkage of circulation diminished them.
Personally he believed that the free coinage
bill presented not only the best, but the
quickest way to settle the whole question;
but he believed that it was best to yield
something even to prejudice, if by so doing
legislation almost equally efficacious and
less objectionable to some classes be secured
Such a measure was the Republican caucus
MIL
Mr. Flower, of New York, confined his
remarks not to the silver question, but to a
constitutional amendment relegating to the
people within prescribed localities the choice
of such administrative officials whose func
tions of office lie entirely within the pre
scribed area and whose choice is of con
sequence only to the people whom they im
mediately serve.
TOOK OFF HIS COAT.
Joseph Henry "Walker, a venerable bnt
energetic member from Massachusetts,
startled his colleagues and the spectators in
the gallery by removing his cuat while
making a most vigorousand amusing speech
upon the pending bill. The statesmen were
astounded at Mr. Walker's flagrant viola
tion of the rules of decorum, and had
Speaker Reed been in the chair the ver
dant member would undoubtedly have been
called to order. As it happened, however,
Mr. "Walker's colleage, General Coggswell,
was presiding over the deliberations of the
House at the time the offense was committed.
The corpulent Temporary Chairman, who
is soled for the striking resemblance which
he bears to Grover Cleveland, was made
very nervous by Mr. "Walker's breach of
etiquette. He twitched about in Tom Reed's
elevated chair and evidently wanted to
bring Mr. "Walker to account. He did not
do this, however, but sent word to Speaker
Reed that he would be pleased to have him
resume charge of the House at the earliest
moment possible. Appreciating the situa
tion Mr. Reed promptly took up the gavel
and sent a page to tell the circus orator to
get into his clothes. Before the message
could reach Mr. "Walker his time had ex
pired. He was plainly anxious to have it
extended, but Speaker Reed thought he had
gone lar enough in his exhibition of bad
taste and quickly recognized the next ap
plicant for his eye.
AGAINST FEEE COINAGE.
"While he had the floor, however, Mr.
"Walker denied that there was business de
pression because of low prices. There was
not a solitary fact that justified the state
ments made in favor of tree coinage. There
was never a dav since the sun shone on the
earth when a farmer could pay his debts
with as few days' work as he could to-day.
Prices had been going down for 100 years.
The demonetization ot silver bad not the
slightest appreciable effect on the deprecia
tion of prices. Money had no place in
economics: it was an incident in economics.
You might destroy all the gold and silver in
the world to-night, and wake up in the
morning and the world would not be hurt
one iota. It was an absolute disgrace to the
House to hear the rot that was talked here;
and he had talked some of it himself. He
asserted that there was not another business
in the country that conld have had as much
over-production as the farming industry,
and get anything for its goods. He said he
-would vote for this bill.
Mr. Lacey, of Iowa, said that the country
was met with a contraction of the enrrency.
The banks were calling in circulation. It
might be that figures would show as much
money in the United States per capita as
there ever had been; but there was an ab
solute snortage or Jnnds. The pending bill
proposed to give the country an increase to
offset the contraction and even more.
TBACTICALLT FEEE COINAGE.
It was practically a free coinage bill.
The capacity of the mints was $50,000,000.
The output of the mines was $51,000,000.
The tree coinage of every dollar ot Ameri
can silver would be about $51,000,000; yet
this bill proposed to give 554,000,000 a year
of legal tender Treasury notes. It was a
free coinage measure because it provided
that when silver was at par the mints should
be open to free coinage. The country needed
"S uS-Vln of lKe c,urrency in a safe way,
and this bill provided for it.
Mr. Blount, of Georgia, contended that
ailTer demonetization had cast a blighting
curseover everybody except the capitalist
This curse was somewhat removed by the
,ct of 1878 and the business of the country
began to grow more prosperous. The pres
ent contraction of the enrrenev was due to
the demonetization act of 1675. " To increase
the volume of circulation was the only way
to relieve not only the agricultural interest.
mt everr other interest in the countrr.
He criticised the Treasury bill, declaring J
that it was Intended to stop the further coin
age of the silver dollar. It relegated silver
to the same plane as any other commodity.
It was a "Wall street measure a scheme of
the ola enemy of the people. He also criti
cized the caucus bill and advocated a free
coinage measure.
SO AMENDMENTS ALLOWED.
Mr. Bland, of Missonri, inquired whether
it was in order for him to offer an amend
ment The Speaker replied that it was not
Mr. Bland said that he could only protest
against the denial of a right of a member of
the minoritv to offer an amendment. He, as
a member 'of the Committee on Coinage,
"Weights and Measures, baa asked whether
he would be allowed to offer a free coinage
substitute. The Chairman had replied that
it wonld be so arranged. He did not wantto
charge any gentleman with acting in bad
faith; but be did charge that there had been
a neglect in carrying out the promises of the
committee.
This gag law had been placed upon the
minority. "Why had this been done? It was
for 1he purpose of passing a bill through the
House, the effect of which was to demonetize
silver. That was the object of it The bill
was a "Wall street scheme and a gold bug
scheme to change the ratio between gold and
silver. It recognized silver bullion accord
ing to its gold value. Silver was being
murdered iu the house of its friends. He
especially critcized the bullion redemption
clause, arguing that it would prevent any
appreciable expansion of the currency.
QUITE A TEMPTATION.
It would hold out the temptation to the
Secretary of the Treasury to make millions
of dollars out of speculation in "Wall street.
No Congress which had any regard for the
officers of the Government would hold out
such a temptation. The free coinage of
silver would not only appreciate diver
bullion, but would depreciate gold bullion
and bring the two metals to a parity. Some,
men cried out for dear money and cheap
goods. It was a "Wall street cry, and he
had heard its echoes on this floor. The
Government must either issue fiat money or
give unlimited use to gold and silver.
Mr. Kerr, of Iowa, advocated the bill as
a long step in the right direction, and
thought that it did not merit the condemna
tion in which the gentleman on the other
side indulged. The bill would result in the
remonetization of silver, and In the two
metals ultimately going hand in band.
Mr. Townsend, of Colorado, said that the
departure from the bimetallic standard had
been the cause of untold misery to the
wage workers, and benefited only those
in the enjoyment of fixed incomes payable
in gold. Prosperity would not return, and
the downward course of prices would not be
arrested until silver Was returned to its
proper place. The only complete and per
fect remedy was to reverse the action of
1873, and go back to the free and unlimited
coinage of silver.
A VOICE FEOM NEBRASKA.
Mr. Dorsey, of Nebraska, said that if
Secretary "Windom had purchased and
coined the maximum amount of silver al
lowed under existing law ($4,000,000 per
month) there would have been no need of
this discussion, and he would have strength
ened the administration ot President Har
rison. To that section of the substitute
which provided for bullion redemption he
emphatically objected. There was no need
for such a section, for if the silver bullion
was in the Treasury and could be sold for
gold coin necessary to redeem the notes, no
man would ever desire to have his notes
redeemed. It had been said
(in the case of the specie redemption
innd) that if the gold reserve was not in the
Treasury the noteholders would want gold.
"Would it not be better to cover the one
hundred million redemption fund into the
Treasury anduse it aspart of the circulating
medium; and, In case United States notes
were presented for redemption and there
was no money to meet the demand, allow
the Secretary to sell bonds to meet the de
mand. The bullion redemption feature
should be stricken out, and he appealed to
his side of the House to allow a vote on that
proposition.
Mr. McRae. of Arkansas, appealed to the
gentlemen on the other side who believed in
free coinage, to restore silver to its proper
place, not step, by step, but as it was de
stroyed, in one jump.
The evening session was devoted to gen
eral debate on the silver bill.
SCENES IN THE-SENATE.
PLUMB JUMPS CLEAR OVER THE REPUB
LICAN TRACES.
The Western Statesman BInkes an Attack
Upon Both the Silver and Tnrlft" Bills
Be U a Determined Advocate ot Free
Coinage.
"Washington, June 6. Senator Plumb
had the floor upon the silver bill to-day. He
believed that it was the all but unanimous
opinion of the people of the United States
that a very considerable increase iu the vol
ume of the currency was necessary, and he
was reinforced in that belief by the investi
gation which he had given to the subject.
He declared that the circnlation to-day was
$240,000,000 less than the framers of the
financial legislation of 1875 anticipated,
althongh the commercial bnsmess of the
country had doubled within that time.
The total amonnt of money which the
people of the United States had got for the
transaction of their daily business conld not
exceed $600,000,000. He believed that it
was less than $500,000,000. And upon that
narrow foundation had been built an enor
mous structure of credit propped up, here
and there, by devices of various kinds and
kept swelling and growing, while the base
on which it rested did not grow in propor
tion to the structure.
A HIT AT HISCOCK.
The Senator from New York (Mr. His
cock) had yesterday described the great
wealth and prosperity of the country, but,
if the picture were true, why was it, Mr.
Plumb asked, that that Senator and his
committee (the Finance Committee) were
"piling up protective duties?" If there was
such financial health and soundness and
nrosperity, why not let the tariff alone, and
let the financial system of the country alone?
His idea was that not only should the va
cancy of the national bank circulation be
made up, but there ought to be added to
that at least as much as would result from
the free coinage of silver. He was willing
to aoauaon nis iuea in iavor oi nat money
and to widen the base of the credit structure
by adding to it all the silver that the United
States mints could turn ont
According to the best data there was less
than $60,000,000 worth or silver mined
every year in the United States. Of that
some $30,000,000 was coined, $8,000,000 used
in the arts and only $17,000,000 could be
used in free coinage. It was to be remem
bered that the national bank circulation
was being every day retired, the amount
to be retired this year being $15,000,000.
Mr. Farwell Double as much as that
Mr. Plumb "We lost $41,000,000 last year;
bnt the reason why we will not lose so much
this year is because the banks cannot retire
their circulation below a certain proportion
without losing their charters. We shall
therefore lose this year by the withdrawal of
national bank circulation all that could be
got by free coinage.
SILVEB AND PROTECTION.
Mr. Plumb went on to speak of the silver
bill in connection with the question of pro
tection. The Senate had been appealed to
yesterday by the Senator trom New York
(Mr. Hiscock), against the bill in the sacred
name of protection. He would not call it a
feticb, although he did not know what he
would call it before he got through, bnt in
its name the Senate was asked to keep silver
dethroned. Silver was an American product
a much larger product than many others
which were to be protected by duties of 200
or 300 per cent under the coining tariff bill.
He would like to ask the Senator from Hew
York who was so anxious about foreign
commerce what he intended to do with the
tariff bill which would prevent the United
States from having any foreign commerce.
He hoped that he might interpret the Sen
ator's remarks on that point as a hopeful
augury of the action of that Senator in put
ting his knile into the bill now before the
Finance Committee a bill which would
raise the price of nearly everything used by
THE"
the masses of the people. The silver bill
was then laid aside.

MEXICO HOT AT.ATtMTCTI.
There la No Necessity for an Appeal to This
Country lor Protection.
"Washington, June 6. Secretary Blaine
said this evening that there was not a
particle of truth in the San Diego dispatch
to the effect the Mexican Government had
requested the United States to send soldiers
to San Diego to prevent an expedition
against Lower California. Mr. Romero, the
Mexican Minister, also said that the dis
patch was not true. He said that the Mexi
can Government had not asked anything
from the Government of the United States,
with regard to the filibustering expedition
against Lower California, which had been
hatched in San Diego, and added that the
Mexican Government had ample means at
its disposal to deal properly with any fili
busterers who might invade Mexican soil.
He did not think, however, there was much
danger oi such an invasion.
WANAMAXEB OPPOSED IT.

"Washington, June 6. The House Com
mittee on PostofEce and Post Roads to-day
had under consideration the bill to make
eight consecutive hours a day's work for
postal clerks. Postmaster General Wana
maker, who was present, opposed the bill,
insisting that its provisions were imprac
ticable. He was opposed to an iron-clad rnle of
this kind, but asserted that if he were
allowed an annual appropriation of $500,000
that he could bring the service in first and
second-class offices around to an eight-hour
basis, which would be satisfactory to the
employes.

PITTSBURG DISPATCH,
CARROLL IS SILEST.
The Spook-Enchanted Husband Re
fuses to Answer Any of the
SERIODS CHARGES AGAINST HIM.
His Wife's Money Famished the Temple of
Humanity and
SECURED FINEE1 FOE THE MEDIUM.
The Friends of the Wronjed Woman Will Sift the
Matter to the Button.
Sir. Carroll refuses to discuss the charges
against him and his spook priestess. The
iriends of his wife, however, are determined
upon an investigation. They claim that
since she was confined in an asylum her
money has been freely used by the spirit-'
ualistio pair.
EBFECXLZ. TELEORAM TO THE DISPATCH.
New Yobk, June 6. Mr. George D.
Carroll was found in his stationery store this
afternoon by a Dispatch reporter, but he
absolutely refused to discuss the revelations
he haB been getting through his spiritual
istic priestess, Mrs. Fanny Stryker, or the
inquiry into his wife's sanity, which has
just been set on foot by Dr. N. A. Mossman.
Dr. Mossman said to-day that he would
press the investigation which he had begun,
and find out at the same time just what
right Mr. Carroll had to draw the income of
his wife's property during all the time she
has been in the Middletown "asylum. Dr.
Mossman said that Mr. Carroll persuaded
his wife to make over to him some of her
money, which was to be for her son Clif
ford's benefit, and was to be held in his
name.
A HUSBAND'S NEQIVECT.
"I knew nothing," said Dr. Mossman, "of
Mr. Carroll allying himself to the Spirit
ualists and Mrs. 8tryker, nor of my own
knowledge of Mrs. Carroll's commitment to
the asylum. But I will say this right here
that if Mrc. Carroll had been properly cared
for, and had received the proper attention
during the critical period through which
she was passing, there would have been no
cause to put her into an insane asylum."
A few months ago reports began to reach
Dr. Mossman that all was not well with
Mrs. Carroll, and that she had been wofully
neglected, that her husband had not visited
her for a year and a half, and for that
length of time had not contributed to her
expenses at the asylum. In consequence he
understood that Mrs. Carroll had become an
inmate of the common ward in the asylum,
although she has abundant means in her
own right. So he has undertaken to
ameliorate the condition of his old friend
and at the same time to discover just what
the state of her mind is.
"While 1 do not say," said Dr. Moss
man, "that Mrs. Carroll is not insane, I
think it highly proper that an inquiry
should be made to find just what her mental
condition is, when we consider that women
in whom insanity has developed from very
similar causes have regained all their facul
ties again."
THE MEDIUM'S HOME.
Mrs. Stryker, the spook priestess, and her
husband have lived foravear past in a
pretty little cottace at 48 Evergreen place,
just a few minutes' walk from the Brick
Church station, on the Delaware, Lacka
wanna and "Western road. It was here that
Mrs. Stryker performed recently the cere
mony at which she declared Mr. Carroll'to
be the earthly representative of Daniel
"Webster Visitors to Mrs. Carroll say that
she was aware of Mr. Carroll's close asso
ciation with the spook priestess, used to
visit the house where the spook wedding
ceremony was performed, and protested em
phatically against Mr. Carroll's conduct.
Her visits and protests became frequent, and
shortly afterward she was sent to the
asylum.
"I want to go to my house in Yonkers,"
Mrs. Carroll is reported to have said to one
of her visitors a short time since. "I have
been here long enough. Mr. Carroll has all
my money and he never comes to. see me any
more."
Dr. Mossman, with friends of Mrs. Car
roll's in New York and Washington, will
bring witnesses at the coming investigation
who are ready to swear that shortly after
Mrs. Carroll was put in the asylum her dia
monds and laces and fine household goods
were pawned, and that the proceeds went to
ward furnishing Mrs. Stryker's temple of
humanity, and that the cost ot the finery of
the Strykers in the Lennox Hill house can
be traced to Mrs. Carroll's money.
SILENCE IN PUBLIC MEN.
What Mrs. Grant Has to Say of Hor Has
band In This Particular.
In a recent interview Mrs. Grant said:
"General Grant has been called 'the silent
man.' To a great extent I take it that this
was true of him in his official position. He
learned out of a long experience, coupled
with the advice of good counselors,tbat
silence was the best answer, as a general
rule, that a public man could make to all
the countless misrepresentations current in
public life.
"But when the General felt that be with
safety could be off guard, seated with Gen
erals'in his tent, a lew friends iu the parlor
or his family at the fireside, he often became
animated in conversation. At such times
he was often epigrammatic, and would say
wise, witty things which, if they had been
garnered, would fairly pass for proverbs.
Indeed, he had a dry humor about him
which was very agreeable to bis more inti
mate iriends, and was often inclined to be
facetious as the conversation turned on
topics which struck him pleasantly.
WILD ONIONS FLAVOR BUTTER.
Complaints From the Dairy Farmers of
New Jersey About It.
The farmers in many parts of New Jersey
are complaining of the rank and luxuriant
growth of wild onions, which this year seems
to be greater than ever before. The cows
when turned out to pasture evince a sur
prising fondness for the weed, and the flavor
is reproduced, very objectionably, in their
milk and butter, both of which are often
rendered quite useless. Calves whose
mothers have been grazing in fields where
wild onions hold a lien on the land sicken
and sometimes die.
The wild onion of New Jersey is entirely
different from the cultivated vegetable of
Bermuda. Its odor is powerful enough to
draw tears, at ten paces, from any eyes,
however uuused to the melting mood; and if
a young woman is so silly as to place the
smallest particle of one of them between
her lips on Monday morning, she will
greatly enhance her folly if she consents to
meet her sweetheart before the lollowing
Saturday evening.

The a venerable and beloved pastor was
bom in Licionier "Valley, near Ligionier.
His father was a member of the Legislature,
and a man of a good deal of note. The
doctor studied for the ministry and his first
work was as assistant to the Eev. Thomas
Davis, in charge of the congregations of
Salem and TJnitv. The congregation of
Blairsville was organized in 1828. and a
brick church put up, which was replaced
by a beautiful modern new one in 1881. Dr.
Hill soon after the organization Became
pastor of this church, and bas remained in
that position since. Abont 18 months ago
Eev. J. "W. Crisswell, of Ohio, a graduate
of the Union Theological Seminary, became
his assistant.
The doctor in appearance is tall, with
Siercing black eyes, dark complexion. His
air" is now gray, but was once black.
"When fired up his eyes speak of great
strength. He has a logical mind and ster
ling character. He never paid attention to
gossip or murmuring, bnt went right along
with his duties, turning neither to the right
nor left. Pew men have maintained their
standing with a congregation so long. He
has been a tower of strength in this com
munity, in the Presbytery and in the Synod,
and for some years has been one of the di
rectors of the "Western Theological Semi
nary. He has been a sound preacher, and
quite eloquent on occasions, plain and
blunt, lacking in polish, but not in heart,
when he is known. He always withstands
a storm bravely and is a true friend. His
congregation is large. The doctor reared a
family, and now has a secdhd wife.

Anew way of reducing the price of the
electric light to a minimum is reported from
Paris. A young man from Nikopolis,
naned Yerdichewaki, had been sent to Paris
to study at a technical school. He was sup
plied with means by some benevolent per
sons in Odessa. He recently returned there,
repaid the money advanced to him, and
lived in a very free-handed way Tor some
time, giving as an explanation of his im
proved circumstances the faet that "he had
discovered an invention tending to reduce
to the lowest minimum the cost of the elec
tric light," and that Baron Bothschild had
been glad-to purchase the patent for a couple
of million dollars.
After a while came the news that a great
robbery amounting to over 1,000,000 francs
had been committed in Florence by a young
Eussian, with the connivance of the hotel
keeper, the victim being the wife of a retired
Ambassador. Verdichewski was at once
suspected, and a search for him was promptly
instituted. That worthy, however, had
sniffed the mischief in the wind, and had de
parted for a more congenial sphere.

Chicago, June 6. The scores of stalls
that leer from the walls and chandeliers of
the "Whitechapel Club never grinned
so broadly and the yellow skeletons
never rattled their bones so merrily as
they did last night. Two distinguished
gnests were there, one who writes piously
and another whose pen loves to dwell on
evil deeds. They were Colonel Elliott F.
Shepard and George "Washington Peck,
Mayor of Milwaukee, and father of the
famous but depraved bad boy.
Channcey M. Depew was expected to be
present, bnt he was ill and his doctor for
bade him to come. Dr. Depew had just
finished his speech at the big Auditorium,
and had retnrned to the lobby of the Audi
torium Hotel with the other members of his
party, among whom- was Colonel Shepard.
The Colonel was standing near a large onyx
pillar, his immaculate shirt front gleaming
id tbe bright light. His distinguished ap-
Eearance had attracted many people about
im.
A sudden seizure.
Suddenly two young men in black, silk
shirts and black all over, save the red neck
ties that flared at ther throats, rushed
through the crowd and seized the editor by
the arms. They dragged him from the
lobby and bundled him in a closely
curtained carriage, which whirled
down" Michigan avenue and disappeared.
Meanwhile, from a cab that waited at the
corner, stepped a solemn black friar. His
head was hidden in a hood and around his
body was tied with a rope a long black
monkish gown. He dodged behind the
heavy oaken doors of the Auditorium and
peered lrom the folds of his bood at the
shifting crowd within. He soon spied
a rather heavy set man, with gray hair, and
still grayer mustache and imperial, and
eyes twinkling pleasantly behind glasses.
It was George "W. Peck. The hooded friar
leaped out into the crowd, and, seising
Milwaukee's Mayor, dragged him over 'the
mosaic floor toward tbe boulevard.
"Who are you?" cried the creator of the
"Bad Boy."
"Jack the Eipper;" was the reply.
Mr. Peck was satitfied. When invited by
the Whitecha'pel Club to attend Thursday
night's symposium he had telegraped back:
"Send the Kipper himself after me." Jack
had come. On the sidewalk nearly 3,000
people pressed about the cab and marveled
greatly until it dashed off down the street,
following Colonel Shepard's carriage.
ALMOST AN ABDUCTION.
The two vehicles went on down to Madi
son street and whirled over to La Salle.
Then it turned down a dark, grewsome al
ley and stopped before a low door. The dis
tinguished guests were assisted from their
carriages and entered at the door. A gloomy
sentinel halted tbem.
"Who comes to Whitechapel?" he said.
"No. 13. Ho. 15, No. 14," was the answer,
"with victims."
Then the door swung open. As they en
tered a loud report overhead startled the
guests. Blue lights flickered in the shining
skulls that serves as globes to the
chandeliers. The wind sweeping thorough
the door from the dark alley
rattled the bones of all the skeletons, and
then a clock struck 12. A score of Eippers
sat at long tables. The guests were ushered
in, and the Master of Ceremonies said:
"Colonel Shepard, this is Jack the Eipper.
Mr. Peck, Jack the Eipper."
The guests received. cigars and striking
matches on a skull, they lighted them and
sat down. Then a few speeches were
made, and the two guests made
speeches in reply. They stayed for two
hours, being entertained with songs
and stories. Opie Bead told about a hang
ing down in Arkansas, and other happy
thoughts were expressed from time to time
as tne graveyard relics all around inspired
them. When the guests arose to go after
taking one last look at the genial snake
that stretched himself iu the corner and
eying again the blood-stained souvenirs of
crime, Colonel Shepard and Mayor Peck
declared that they had never had such a
time.

Indians and a Jail Governor Engage In nn
Exciting Contest, .
Victoria Colonist.
Pour canoe loads of Indians and Mr. W.
Morseby, Governor of the provincial jail at
Westminster, are running an exciting race
at the present moment. Mr. Morseby has
one great advantage over the Siwashes he
is on a steamer; but the Siwashes in turn
have a great advantage over Mr. Morseby,
they have two full days' start. Th e race is
to Port Eupert, nearly 300 miles, and the
chances are that Mr. Morseby will win.
It will be remembered that Henry T.
Sunbury was murdered at "Vancouver on
the night of the 28th of March last. No
clue to the murderer could be lound, but
Mr. Morseby and the Vancouver police
have been working on the case ever since.
From information received it has been as
certained that a Fort Eupert Indian named
Jim is the gnilty party, and that he is now
at Fort Eupert." Mr. Morseby was given
full powers by tbe Government to act in
tbe case, and on Thursday he left for the
north on the steamer Skidegate, accom
panied by several Vancouver constables.
On Tuesday four canoe loads of Indians
left the inlet for Fort Eupert to warn Jim
of his danger, and it is a matter of 4peed
only that will give Jim his freedom or
bring about his hanging.
A PECULIAB PEBF0BMANCE.
A Passenger Ties Illm.elf to n Steamer's
Line Then Leaps Overboard.
Florida Times-Union.
The peculiar performances of a passenger
on the Iroquois were the cause of consider
able excitement on tbatrip from New York.
The gentleman in question behaved with
great propriety until the steamer reached
Charleston, when he twice attempted to
jump overboard as the steamer lay at the
doclc. He was prevented by the watchful
ness of F. M. Ironmonger, and afterwards
climbed the mast to tbe highest point and
tcuched the cold ball on the masthead. He
descended hand over hand down the jib stay
leading to the bow.
Just after crossing the bar yesterday
morning, as the steamer was passing May
port at the rate of thirteen miles an honr, he
tied the lead line around bis waist and
jumped over the side for a swim. He was
jerked through tbe water at a frightful
speed, and the ship had to be stopped and
the erratic gentleman hanled aboard. He
said he merely wished to take an ocean dip,
and thought that he could keep up with the
ship.
He acted in a strange manner during the
whole voyage and whether he wished a little
excitement or was slightly off his mental
balance is a g.u.tsiion. to pe wired, -

San 'Fbancisco, June 6. A corre

under date of May 21, says: Some uneasi
ness prevails among foreigners in the
Japanese capita!,owing to tbe developments
which have followed the murder of the
Canadian missionary, tbe late Bev. T. A.

The excitement occasioned by the news of
the murder had just died away when one ot

himself a victim of circumstances, which
compelled his departure, and following

James Summers, for many years
past proprietor ot the English
school at Tokio, patronized by the
nobility, was driving in one of
the principal thoroughfares ot Tokio with
his wife, when the carriage of the Dowager
Empress, mother of the present Mikado, ap
proached with a cavalry escort Whena
member of the royal family passes it is
the custom for people along the streets to
uncover their heads and Summers reined
his horse into the side of tbe street and
halted. As the carriage approached he
took off his hat, replacing it as soon
as the carriage was past him. One of the es
corts in the rear of the carriage noticed the
hat and brought his lance in line with it,
so that by accident the cavalryman struck
Summers a severe blow on the head. The
soldier was at once arrested and court mar
tialed. The native press immediately took
up the matter and much feeling against the
foreigners was manifested by the rough stu
dent element known as the Shosei who were
inflamed by-the report that Summers had
been guilty of an act of disrespect toward
the Empress Dowager, and so alarmed
Summers that he leltthe school in the
hands' of the police, and left on the 16th
inst. by a steamer for his homein England,
leaving his family in care of friends.
The Shoseis are greatly excited, and for
eigners are fearing serious outbreaks. Un
fortunately Mr. Summers is the same man
who about 40 years ago caused the
death of the Governor of Macao, in
China by refusing to remove his hat when a
Corpus Christi procession was passing. He
was thrown into prison by the Portuguese,
was rescued by an English Admiral and in
tbe pending excitement the Portuguese
Governor and one other person were killed.
On the 17th iust, the Japanese
students of the Presbyterian school
known asMeiji Gakuin started to play a
game of baseball with the students of the
Koto Seigakko preparatory school and the
feeder to the Imperial University of Tokio.
Eev. G. W. Knox, the American mis
sionary teacher in Meiji Gakuin, ac
companied the students from his
school. While the game was in
progress another s American mission
ary, Eev. W. Imbray, of New Jersey, a
teacher in the same school went to the
grounds and stepped over a low hedge
fence into the field. He was
set upon by the Shosei and
beaten about tbe head and body and
sustained severe injuries and knife cuts
about the head. -No cause is given for tbe
attack. He will, however, recover. Less
fear is being shown by the Shosei for the
police, and the outcome of the excitement
is the topic of general surmise.
TTTB ELEVATION OF THE EACE.
Resolutions of the Negro Conference Em
bodying TJscf at Hints.
Mohone Lake, N. Y., June 6. At the
closing session of the negro convention to
night the resolutions reported by the Execu
tive Committee this morning were acted
upon separately.
As adopted they recognize in the colored
race a greater degree of improvement within
25 years than was ever accomplishedbyany
other people; also the value and reliability
of their labor, both skilled and unskilled.
But a dark background presents itself, and
much yet remains to be done. Tbe negro is to
remain a citizen of the United States and
the welfare of tbe county demands that he
live in relations of good will. To this end
increased facilities for industrial
training is recommended, especially in
improved agriculture lor boys and
household duties for girls. The
social destinies of the' race mnst be deter
mined by the character of their own homes.
The one-room cabin is the curse of the race,
as the tenement house is of the city slums.
The common school should be made more
effective.
The United should hold it a sacred duty
to educate the 7,000,000 of negroes lest they
be a source of danger to the nation. The
credit system is especially condemned as
harmful and shonld be avoided. Habits of
thrift and economy should be inculcated
in them and a postal savings bank system is
advocated. For all these things we look to
an enlightened Christian sentiment and, fra
ternally invite all good citizens to assist in
the noble task.
6AS AND SHADE TBEES.
An Old Nurseryman's Theory as to the Bad
Luck of Many Growers.
"Last fall," said a nurseryman who does
a great deal of business in Pittsburg "I set
out a large row of shade trees for an old
customer, and was disgusted to learn a few
days ago that nearly all were dead. Shortly
after they were planted the gas main was
opened in several places to connect new
houses, and I am satisfied it was the escaped
gas permeating through the loose soil and to
the roots that did tbe mischief.
"There are complaints all over the city
about shade trees not doing well, and when
a row is near a gas main there never seems
a healthy growth. The gas escapes either
through leakage or through the pipes them
selves, if they are of cast-iron, and the hard
pavements or flag sidewalks prevent it
rising. It is all thus conducted to the
outlet around the shade trees, with the result
stated. It is only necessary to- note hnw
much better trees grow where there are
plank sidewalks to admit the reasonableness
of this theory."
NEW COLLARS AND CUFFS.
Papier Mache Utilized as a Superior Substi
tute for Celluloid.
St. Louis Globe-Democrat.!
Toward the end of last summer manu
facturers became convinced that many of
the men wearing flannel shirts would prefer
to wear the white shirt during the warm
weather, in the cities especially, if they
could do it, and at the same, time avoid
heavy bills for washing. Inventors got the
idea, and now they are making collars and
cuffs of papier mache 'and creating a large
demand for them, too.
The new material is as hard to soil and as
easy to clean as celluloid, bnt it's likely to
be much more popular tnau that stuff ever
was, because it has no bad smell, doesn't
take fire from a lighted match, as celluloid
used to do sometimes, and is softer to the
skin of the neck and wrists. It can hardly
be told from linen, and yet doesn't wilt with
perspiration. It will probably be most
worn on the street evening by tbe men who
won't condescend to the homely flannel
shirt..

ISFZCUI. TXI.XQBJUC TO THI CISrATCB.1
Philadelphia, June 6. Eleven fire,
men were burned, probably fatally, by an
explosion of gasoline to-day at tha
storage house of the Penn Globa
and Gas Light Company, situated
on the northeast corner of Almond
and Adams streets. The firemen had been
called in answer to an alarm, and the flames
were under control when tbe explosion
came.
When the excitement had subsided it
was found that the following were
the sufferers: William McConnell,
seriously burned; William Hetrick,
seriously burned; John Hillman; Jobs
Warne, badly burned about the body, will
probably die; Thomas Grogan, body
bnrned; Thomas Smith, seriously burned
about bead and body; James Eussell,
injured and burned about face and
body; Samuel Graham, foreman, seriously
burned; David Patterson, body injured;
Bobert Bnrns, badly injured and burned
abont face and body; Joseph McWade, dan
gerously burned.
THE FIRST ALABM.
It was shortly after 12 o'clock when a boy
came running out of the building shouting'
"Fire! fire!" An Eighteenth district police
man saw that the building, which was a
one-story frame structure, was allablazeand
sent out an alarm. The apparatus was
quickly on hand, and while it was impossi
ble to save tbe storage house, the efforts to
restrain the fire to it were successful.
In the rear of the burning building was a
blacksmith shop, and streams were directed
to it. A number of firemen were stationed
near the shop. It was at this time believed
that all danger had passed, when three
loud explosions followed in rapid succession
from the storage house.
With the explosions came the dense black
smoke incident to oil fires, and the cries of
pain and shrieks of anguish were heard. Sim
ultaneously with the explosions the oil burst
from the casks and the burning fluid was
scattered about in every direction. The .
roar of the flames and the loud reports
heard attracted a large crowd and it was
feared that the number of the injured might
reach a score or more.
difficult wobk of eescue.
The heat and the fumes of the oil made
it difficult to approach with safety the
building, which was now burning fiercely.
There was a double duty now for the unin
jured firemen. Adjoining property had to
saved, and the bnrned men to be cared or.
It was a battle of love and duty, and was
bravely fought by the firemen. Tbe mills
in the neighborhood were in danger,
bnt fortunately the wind was light
and did not carry the flames. One
by one the 11 firemen were removed and
w'ith tender care placed in the Episcopal
Hospital ambulances and patrol wagons.
They suffered terribly, but every attention
possible was given them until the hospital
was reached.
Tbe fire is said to have been caused by a
small boy named John Stewart, who, in
company with a number of other lads, were
in the storage station smoking a pipe.
Yonng Stewart is tbe son of Thomas Stew
art, who for a long time had charge of the
storage house, but who was discharged yes
terday morning for drunkenness.
The boy bas been in the habit of playing
in the building, and it is thought that while
lighting his pipe to-day he dropped the
match, which ignited the waste and thus
caused the fire.
