ilE.VCH ATTITUDE TOWARD THE FAIR
"Warsaw, Dec S. It is learned on good
authority that the prestige of M. Vishne
gradsky, the Minister of Finance, has of
late been greatly shaken, and that he has
become exceedingly unpopular among the
merchants and other commercial classes,
n ho now perceive that the temporary im
provement in the finances has been affected
at their expense. The health of this MinV-.-tcr
is very bad and he will retire if the
Tzar will give him permission to do so.
The failure of the crops has not been
universal. In the Caucasus the harvest
was so abundant that the gram is still rot
ting at the railroad stations Tor want of roll
me stock to carry it away.
There is much reason to suppose that
'here will be famine next year also. The
sutumn wheat has been seriously injured
or the rain, and it is very probable that
the spring crops in many of the Eastern
governments will turn out no bettor than
hey did this year. Indeed, the outlook in
Russia is very gloomy, and everyone is pre
oaring for a verv Bad winter.
The political horizon is alsj much over
cast, and especially since the Czar passed
hrongh Germany without endeavoring to
eturn the visit of Emperor "William. It
i as at first supposed that this was due to
raily reasons and the sickness of Grand
luke George, There are only too many
'rounds for supposing that the visit was not
etnrned for political and financial reasons.
It is stated here in official circles that had
t not been for a letter received by the Czar
rom the Russian Minister of Finance the
ormer would have met the German Em
cror, as was his original intention. In
iiis letter, it is said, M. Vishnegradsky
irged the Czar not to visit the German Em
icror, as such an act would not only give
iflene to the French Government, but
vould be disastrous to the loan which the
iovernment was raising in Paris. In any
ase this consideration seems toha'vehad
-reat weight with the Czar.
llany peasants in the famine-stricken dis
ncts refuse to accept employment on Gov
rnment relief works. Nihilist agents are
rorking actively to persuade the peasants
hat the Czar can and ought to supply them
fith food. The large factories at Lodsi are
topping work for want of orders, leaving
be operatives in a destitute condition.

The Reasons for Delay.
"Washington, Dec 8. "W. S. McAllis
ter, of Mississippi, Chairman of National
Executive Committee of the Sub-Treasury
Alliance, who has been making a tour of
the States where his party is strongest,
found awaiting him here letters from his
fellow-committeemen, urging him to post
pone the date for a national convention
called to meet at Memphis December 1G.
This call was issued from Indianapolis,
upon the refusal of the Supreme Council,
after a lengthy debate, to receive the pro
test of thb anti sub-Treasury party and
make the same a part of tin record. It had
prevously been determin .", in tha event of
such action by the Supreme Council, to per
fect a distinct organization, with the object
of restoring the Farmers' Alliance to its
original state of fidelity to its constitution.
The proposition to postpone the convention
until a later date was acted upon by Chai?.

In obedience to urgent requests from
many mombers of the Anti-Sub-Treasury
Alliance, the National Convention called to

Chairman for the Committee.
The reasons for this action were given by
Mr. McAllister in an interview- as he was
taking the train to-night for home in Can

he said, "the Supreme Council had taken
no action on the third party question. Sub
sequently it appointed 25 delegates to the
third party conference set for February 23,
at St Louis. Notwithstanding this action,
the National Alliance leaders are denying
that it Is their purpose to turn the Farm

result of the St. Louis conference will de

and hence the propriety of postponing our

AH0IHEE INDIAN WAE.
An Escaped Redskin Prisoner Finds
Re-

Helexa, Moxt., Dec 8. Sheriff Jones
and Deputy Sheriff Thompson have arrived
at Miles City with one of the two Indians
they arrested at Cheyenne Agency for kill
ling cattle The other prisoner escaped by
jumping from a buckboard and making for
cover. On the road subsequently the sher
iff was overtaken by two Indian police, with
a message from Agent Tully stating that a
number of braves had gone to the hills with
the fugltne, and had sent in word that they
would fight, and that an attack on the
Agency could be expected at any time.
The Cheyennes are dancing against the
agent's orders. Agent Tully sent a dis-
Eatch Sunday night to the commanding of
cer of Fort Keogh, asking him to send
troops, as an uprising is inevitable. The
commander telegraphed department head
quarters, St, Paul, and last night orders
were issued from there to send troops from
Fort Keogh to the Cheyenne Agency.
Since the order of the General Land Office,
allowing settlers who claimed prior rights
on the reservation to make final proof,
trouble has been feared. Many settlers were
in Miles Citv last w eek making final entries.
The Indians heard of this and will use all
means to drive settlers from the reserva
tion. The Chcvcnnes are fierce fighters,
and serious trouble is looked for.

Denver, Dec 8. A horrible tale of
murder was 1 elated in the criminal division
of the District Court this morning. The
principal character In it was Dr. T.
Thatcher Graves. The relator was District
Attorney Stevens, ana seated about the
courtroom were manyof the leading char
acters. I
It was the opening argument for the pros
ecution, and while Mr. Stevens occupied
nearly the entire day in delivering it, not
a person left theourt room. It was a fas
cinating story, iiill of dark mystery and
darken plots, of woman's weakness and
man's trickery of intrigue ana schemes, and
finally of murder.
Judge 3licon, for the defence, moved
that all the witnesses on both sides be ex
cluded frcm the court room during the entire
taking of'testVwony. Judge Rising thought
that it irouldif?be proper to exsftide all
the witnesses at present, but he would
entertain the motion before the taking of
testimony at 4 elock. When Mr. Stevens
had concluded, an adjournment was taken
until to-mor??. whe't Jndce Fnrman

The Money Iff otlve for the Crime.
Mr. Stevens pave a graphic account of
Mrs. Barnaby's life, from the time of her
marriage, her friendship with Dr. Graves,
and final misunderstanding, and her unfor
tunate trip West and death in this city. He
said:
It is a fact which we will establish to your
gratification that at the time Mrs. Barnaby
reached Denver on this last fatal trip it was
her intention to take from Dr. Graves all
the propertv and monev in his control and
invest it in business in this city through H.
T. Vfordell, Jr.. and that she was also seri
ously thinktnsr of chamrinir her will and

'The Doctor Utterly Indifferent.
Mrs. Barnaby died on the afternoon of the
19th of ADril. On the 16th Dr. Graves was
telegraphed that she was dying, and to
come at once. The doctor loft- Providence
without telling any one of Mrs. Barnaby's
illness. He started for Denver via New
3'ork, stopping off at several points alons
the loute to visit relatives, and reached
here on the evening of the 24th, when, had
he desired to do so, he could have reached
Denver on the morning ot the 2Cd. He
miuifested the greatest indifference over
the matter, and told several conflietine
stories rcgardins: his tardiness. He avoided
all friends and relatives of the deceased.and
appear worried when informed that Mrs.
Barnaby had made a new will.
On the 4th or May, Dr. Graves was in the
Barnaby mansion in Providence upon some
business lelativo to the will, and boing
pressed for an explanation as to the cause
of her death, he said in the presence of Mr.
Conrad and Mr. Hansoon; "Now, Mr.
Conrad, your wife is most anxious to get
home and see her babies, and you take your
wife, go home on the 12.30 train to-night, and
say that Dr. Graves sent that. It was good
whisky when I sent it, and I will never
deny sending it; I will no' so help me God.'

II. & O. Wants More Turd Room.
The story is again revived that the
Baltimore and Ohio road wants Second
avenue between Lock No. 1 and the Tenth
street bridge for yard purposes. In return
the road will give its tracks along the Bluff
street hill tor the street. It is claimed
Second Vice President King has submitted
a plan to the city, and points out how the
change would benefit Pittsburg. The
Baltimore and Ohio has bought most of the
property on both sides of the avenue to the
lock. The citizens are opposed to moving
the street over to the hill unless a retaining
wall is built to prevent .land slides. The
improvement would give the Baltimore and
Ohio 80 more feet between the hill and the
river, and its yard facilities wonld then be
ample. The Baltimore and Ohio made a
great mistake that it didn't buy all the
land along the river to Glenwood years ago
when it could have been hid for a song.
Under the new deal the Baltimore and
Ohio would gain five miles of track.
A Forest Fire in Inmatnre.
The residents of Duquesne Heights and
the West End enjoyed a novel sight
yelterday morning. Some small boys had
built a fire on Duquesne Heights on the
side of the hill opposite No. 8 police station,
and in Some way the grass around it caught
fire and, fanned by a stiff breeze, soon
spread. They boys seeing what they had
done fled, and the flames grew larger and
spread out wider and in a very few minutes
there was a regular forest fire reproduced in
inmature. A strong force of men and boys
turned out and quickly subdued the fire
but not .before it had burned all the grass,
shrubs, etc., off about 40 acres.

J-DISPATOH, WEDNESDAY;
BOSTON CLAIMS THE CRANK.
A MAN ONCE THERE WHO ANSWERS
THE DESCRIPTION.
The Opinion in New York Is That One'
Denton, a Dime Muaenm Character, Is
the Man The Head Identified by Those
Who Knew Him.
New Yobk, Dec 8. Special. Three
months ago there was a crank in Boston
who made several Postonians weary telling
them that Bnssell Sage owed him more
than ?1,000,000. He was looked upon as a
harmless lunatic, and the brokers and law
yers who heard his tale smiled pityingly
and politely bowed him out. He was not
at all violent, and if spoken to on any other
topic than money he would converse as well
as an average man.
He has not been seen here since Septem
ber 1, and the surmise is general that he
may have been the Sage bomb-thrower.
Lawyer Philip S. Bust, of that city, who
saw the crank almost daily for two or three
weeks, says that the description of the New
York bomb-thrower tallies almost exactly
with that of the man who talked with him
about Bussell Sage and his millions. The
only difference is in the beard, but Mr.Rust
says that the Boston man could easily have
raised a substantial growth of hair on his
face in three months. He went by the name
of R. A. Meservey.
Though the head of the dead bomb
thrower has not been positively identified
as yet, everything points to its being that
of-,Prof." A. A. Denton, a well-known
crank who for years has frequented dime
museums and was a well-known figure at
Conev Island.
Tins morning among those who called at
the morgue was James Skillman, of Miner's
Eighth Avenue Theater. He made a care
ful examination of the head, and said that
the face much resembled that of a crank
who was about there some months ago.
The man was always covered with medals
and talked about Jay Gould and million
aire! in general. This description tallies
exactly with that of Denton. John Den
ton, a "performer in the Globe Museum, on
the Bowery, said the features were very
similar to those of Denton, and declared he
knew him well, as they were at one time on
exhibition together. Several others were
posi-iive it was that of Denton.
Mr. Sage went for a drive in Central Park
this afternoon and was gone for nearly an
hour.
SAWTELLE'S CBIME OF CAIN.
The liew Hampshire Murderer's Awfnl
Confession in Court.
Concord, N. H., Dec 8 Isaac B. Saw-
telle appeared yesterday before the Supreme
Court, full bench, to tell the story of
the killing of his brother Hiram,
on a motion for a new trial. Isaac is already
sentenced to die in New Hampshire, and
the present action is to establish the fact
which the prisoner alleges, that tho murder
was done in Maine, where there is no capi
tal punishment, instead of New Hnmpshire,
under the laws of which State he is under
sentence of death. The spectacle is pre
sented of a murderer confessing the murder
of his brother to save his own life.
Sawtelle's story consumed three hours in
the telling. He told how he met his brother
at Rochester, N. H., February 5, 1890,
whither he had lured him from Boston by a
telegram, saying his child was there sick.
Isaac had a revolver in his clothing, a pick
and a shovel in the wagon he had waiting,
and writing material with which, in a lonely
shanty over the Maine line, he (Isaac) in
tended to have his brother sign to him cer
tain Boston property, or kill him for refus
ing. The brother refused to sign, and Saw
telle shot him, then digging a grave for the
body, and, after chopping off the head and
arms, he buried the corpse in the woods.
