At Wednesday's trial of the gum of
the Vesuviu", fifteen shots were fired in
less than seventeen minutes. As each
shell is to contain 200 pounds of explos

Only three weeks remain for campaign
work. The election occurs on November

in getting out a full vote. A majority in
the county of from 2,000 to 2,500 this

Georgia leads the States in the con

Governor Fitzmii.ii Li e, of Virginia,
lias formally invited General Lord Wolse
ley to take part with Jefferson Davis in
tne ceremony of unveiling the monu
ment to General Robert E. Lee. In view
of the vigorous war of words which has
if late been carried on between Lord
Wolseley and the former chief of the
Confederacy, the presence of the two
contestants on the platform as joint eulo
jrisU of Robert E. Lee, would prove rath
er peculiar combination.
Mtss Mary Garrett's new college
Imildinp, Baltimore, is about completed,
and will be opened in a short time. The
only daughter of John W. Garrett has
determined to devote a large portion of
the fortune left her by her father to the
higher ed-jration of her sex. Several
other charitable ladies of Baltimore are
interested in the development of the
school, which is conducted after the style
of the Bryn Mawr College. Miss Garrett
pives the building, costiug nearly $250,-
ooo.
An example of wifely devotion was
exhibited in the criminal court at Atlan
ta the other day which shows that there
is something more than a civil contract
in marriage. J. J. Patterson had stabled
his wife almost to death. She was the
only witness, and appeared against him
at the trial, but on the witness stand she
caught the eye of her husband and re
fused to testify. She was his wife, not
iiis prosecutor. Such devotion does not
strengthen the law against wife-killers,
but who will censure the woman ?
P The ferocious threats which some of
the Democratic leaders are now making
respecting the things that they propose
to do in the next Congress are more
amusing than dreadful. There is one ex
tremely important fact that the gentle
men of the Democ-acy have got to learn
and the sooner they learn it the better.
That it that the next House of Repre
sentatives m ill be Republican in reality
as well as in name. The rights of the
minority will be respected, but the right
of the majority to rule will be enforced.
Tin writ of habeas corpurf has been
denied Wiiliam Kemler, the New York
murderer condemned to death under the
new law requiring that all executions af
ter January 1, ISS'.I, should be by means
of electricity. County Judge Day, of Al
liany, in denying the application, held
that the new law does not hand the con
demned man over to experiment except
in the view of a few interested parties,
and, therefore, it is not unconstitutional.
It only changes the mode of indicting
the death penalty. Kemler's attorneys
will appeal tbe case to the Court of Ap
peals and try to keep it there until the
next Legislature meets, when they hope
the WestinghoHse interests will be strong
enough in the lobby to secure a repeal of
the law. This would be peculiarly un
fortunate for New Nork, as it might re
sult in the discharge of every prisoner
condemned to death since January, when
the law went intoeOect.
Tut friends of protection have cane
for rejoicing and congratulation over the
result of the recent elections in the new
States. The voters of the Northwest have
shown themselves alive to the import
ance of protecting their industries and
will send five new Congressmen and six
if not eight Senators to the Fifty-first
Congress who a ill legislate for the main
tenance of a fiscal policy that is for the
best good of tbe country as a whole, that
will continue to add to our national
wealth and prosperity and that will con
tinue to give the laboring man fair and
liberal wages. .
The American Protective Tariff League
kas special cause for K&tirfaction in hav
ing contributed not a little towards the
results attained. Early in the catn;ign
organization was perfected and docu
ments sent to the new States. The eff -ct
is seen, especially in Montana, where,
though tbe Democratic Governor may be
elected on local iasoea, lit- Carter, th
Republican candidate for Congress, is
elected by a good majority. The iatue
between him and his opponent wa solely
protection. The result augura well for
the future of the new State and for the
whole country. In a few weeks we ex
pect to we a Legislature elected in Ohio
wJ.ich wiil oetul a protectionist to the
Senate to succeed Senator Payne. The
rotersof the country are becoming edu
cated on the great question of the tariff,
and a education leads only to increased
majorities for protection, we may safely
predict that the free-trade majority of
the present Congress will be further re
duced next year, provided due and reas
onable efforts aro made and no relaxa
tion is suffered in the support of protec
tion doctrines or the exjioeure of free
trade lalaehood. If protectionist s re
true to themselves, not only will the
Fifty-second Congress have large majori
ties for protection in both feenat and
Iiouse, but it will be many a year, if ev
er, before a Walker tariff or a Mills bill
will be known again. American Economic.
Edmunds on tha South.
The state of Vermont dedicated five rue
m irials on the battlefield of Gettysburg on
Wednesday. The exercises were held ner
the Stannard Brigade Monument. Secreta
ry of War r roc. tor was present and Ex -Gov-enior
Ormsbec had charge of the exerdsea.
tailed States Seuator Edmunds delivered
the oration, a part of which referred to the
present condition of affairs in the South.
The Senator said :
"Hut even now. after a quarter of a centu
ry it is apparent that the full and final bene
fit and beucii-ienoe of the fjreat sacrifice is
not yet readied. In many of the old slave -holding
com ni3n wealths there ha existed
and continues to be methodically practiced a
systematized repression of the liberated race
and of tb'ise white citizens who defended its
rights of five speech and lawful voting, and
which not only lobs the citizens of alt other
btates of Hie full weight of their just and
lawful influences in the legislation of the
country, but in its various form of fraud,
tyranny, violence and cruelty set at naught
those essential principles of social order and
morality without the practice of which no
free and Christian society can exinU
'These things affect the welfare and the
true life and every part of the Republic, aud
it is the duty of every citizen, of whatever
race, creed or party, to exert himself to bring
them to an end. Until eectire and peaceful
freedom and equality, both political and civ
il, come to every citizen of every state, these
monuments will not have shown their full
and true significance.
"I am not reviving what flippant and wily
politicians are so fond of calling the hitter
tit and hatred of tbe war. There never
have been any such sentiments in tbe hearts
ofthe citizens who stood for the unity of
their country other or further than an in
tense dislike of a rebelliou prosecuted for the
perpetuation of human slavery and the ha
tred then and now of cruelty, tyranny and
oppression."
Sherman on His Party.
Colcmbi-s, Ohio, O.-t. 1(1. Senator John
Sherman made his first speech to-day in this
year's Ohio political campaign at Orrvi'.le.
His points why the Republican party should
succeed were: First, that it is the artirraa
tive and aggressive party that has done more
for the country than any other party in its
history; second, that it standi upon the cor
rect theory of the nature and powers of the
general government, while tbe Democratic
party is restricted by a narrow rule of con
struction third, that two B ipuultcii legis
latures have rescued tbe stute from fraudu
lent elections, and if sustained in power will
give further reforms in elections aud in re
duced taxes. The Senator aid a high com
pliment to Governor Foraker as a man and
soldier, and said his administration had
been a clean and economical one.
That Conscience-Money Story.
Wasmsoroiv, Oct. 10. Secretary Windom
has been criticised undeservedly tor making
public an anonymous communication ac
companying a conscience contribution re
ceived at the Treasury Department, in which
the writer Insinuated that an earlier contri
bution of$5,0isent to the department while
the late Mr. Manning was Secretary had
been appropriated by the ex -Secretary to his
own use. The Uc.l is that when this letter
waa nvide public by Assistant Secretary
liatubelier, a few days ago, he prepsred a
statement to accompany it to tbe effect that
the department records show that $l,!9o had
lecn received and paid into the Treasury on
the date referred to. By mistake this state
ment became temporarily separated from
tbe anonymous letter, and consequently was
omitted from the account telegraphed to
some newspapers. Neither Secretary Win
dom nor Assistant-Secretary lUtcheller is at
all responsible for the omission, and regret
it as much as any of Mr. Manning's most
intimate friends do.
Canadians Excited.
MoNTKKiL, October 11.- The commanders
of military districts in CanaJa have received
orders from tbe British War Olfioe to imme
diately take steps to ascertain the fullest in
formation regarding ail facilities for the
transportation of trooj from one part of
the country to the other, and also how
many horses are available in their districts
on short notice for the purpose of military
transport. Many theories are advanced for
this extraordinary order, tome asserting that
Canada is being drawn unknowingly into
trouble with the United States. Others think
that the failure to settle the Behring Sea dif
ficulty in an amicable way may have some
thing to do with it. Tbe highest author
ities believe that the order is only prelim
inary to tbe garrisoning of the frontier
posts.

centage of con dilion ofcorn, as reported to
the Department of Agriculture, Is 01.7,
against "J.O amonlh ago, and i'l for the crop
of 18W5 on October I. Condition of potatoes
77.9, agaiuet 8.1.8 last October; of buckwheat
against ttjl last year; of tohacco 80.7,
against 8i.7 in 1SS3. The preliminary esti
mate of yield per acre is 12.8 for wheat. 11.9
for rye and 22.2 for barley. The return of
yield per acre for wheat are in thresher meas
urement. This report is preliminary, as the
local estimates will be tested by the record
books of the thresher now coming in. Winter
wheat was injured ;n many districts during
harvest and in tbe stack by heavy rains, and
is comparatively light, grading badly, thus
reducing its weight and value. Its weight
and quality will be the subject of further re
port after lel of the scales' in marketing.

Roasted to Death.
Bhaufobd, Pa., October 11. At Davis
Switch, a small village 13 miles from this
place, the dwelling of Patrick Daily was
burned, and hi, wife and three sons, agjd 13,
11 and 9 iicctively, were roasted in the
flames. At 6 o'clock last night while
the family were at supper the father stepped
to the cook stove to turn off part of tbe gas.
He unintentionally shut the throttle tight,
and on reversing it again the home was
filled with gas and an explosion followed,
and in an instant the house was in flames.
The three boys and mother fell prostrate
on tbe flour overcome by the gas. Mr.
Doily rushed out of tbe house to call for as
sistance, but all efforts to save tbe unfortu
nate inmates failed. "The house was entire
ly consumed in a few moments. The char
red and blackened bodies presented a most
sickening sight. Mrs. Daily's limbs were
burned from her body and her flesh was
cooked to the bones.
The three sons were not so horribly burn
ed as their mother, but their blackened bod
ies could kot be identified until placed side
by side. The gas pressure was very strong,
the pipe running direct from a neighboring
oil well to the cooking stove. Mr. Daily is
severely , but not dangerously, burned about
the head and face, and is al no-it crazed with
grief.

treme drought there was a failure of crops
in Bamsey county, Dakota, and in conse
auence over one hnndred families are re
ported to be without means of subistetice
during the coming winter. There have
been three successive failures of the crops
and over a hundred families are not only on
the verge of starvation, but without suffi
cient clothing to protect them from the
weather even at this season.
Dozens of men, women and children, are
without shoes or stockings, and many of the
little ones have no other covering than an
ordinary gunnysack, with holes for head and
arms. For weeks the people have been sub
sisting upon roots or herbs until their sup
plies are wholly exhausted. Sjme flour has
been sent iu from the outside, but not
enough to give each of the families a supply
for even one batch of bread. Unless relief is
received very soon many must die of hunger.

Bribing Cronin Jurors.
Chicago, October 12.
HarJ! v second to the graat Cronin case it
self are the startling developements of to day.
It has become known that an wipnized at
tempt hxs buen luadi: by court oiiioals to
brit pr Mspertive jurors. Thst w is the se
cret of the sudden sjouruiueiit of court yes-t-:riiay
afternoon, tbe mysterious arrests snd
the prolonged conference in the State's At
torney's office, which only broke up at 3
o'clock this morning. When it did Bailiffs
Solomon and Hanks of the Criminal Court,
were under arrest charged with jury bribing.
Tbe story ofthe crime, as narrated this af
ternoon by a member of the State's Attor
ney's staff, is as follows : Lvst Thursday E.
V. Page, tb wholesale oil deaierr ame to
Jud-e McConnell's court room snd called
one of thelawyers tor the stale to one side,
and told bim that hU foreman, Georga 8.
Tschspble, who was summoned as a juror in
the Cronin case, ha I been approached and
offered a bribe to either acquit tbe defend
ant or cause the jury to dUagree.
TBS FOREX AX'S STOXV.
The foreman admitted the attempt and
said Uiat hs came to tbe court room last
Wednesday morning, having been sum
moned as s juror the day before. Hs went
into the ante roo-n where the other jurors
were aud while waiting to be called s bailiff
a man with whom he bad formerly .been
acquainted came to him and asaed him out
to hsve a cigar. When they went out the
bailiff said he would guarantee that the ju
ror would get $1,000 who would stick it out
for acquittal. An arrangement was to be
msde with the jurors wile, wh was a friend
of the bailiffs wife, so that the juror would
know that the m ney would be paid over.
In the afternoon the juror was examined
and excused for causa by consent. As he
was leaving the court he met the bailiff, who
aid that he ha I been lojkins fr him ail
that "tbey" had agreed to give him $,0)
instead of the $1000 before promised. Tschup
pie then became indignant and threatened
to expose the whole scheme.
CUIR.EO WITH THE Cat HI.
Bailiffs Hanks anJ S A na in were charg
ed with the crime, and when they were con
fronted by Mr. Tjchapple they confessed,
implicating a num'jer of others in the con
spiracy. Eirly in the m miing a special
grandjury was siiomjne.l to investigite,
with Es-Miyor Kc!ie aifjroiuan. Jule
Hortou suid to them :
"G jiitlemm, your term of service will be
very short, so 1 will consider no applications
for excuse. Matters have be;ii brought to
the attention of the c jurt that make it seem
to be tbe duty ofthe court to secure a grand
jury in this hurried manner. T ie details of
the m ittcr whic'i will be brought to your
consideration I am unable to state. Indeed
perhaps, It would be improper for me to do
so. Your term of service will necessarily be
short and will depend chief! upon your
selves. The Court will await your service.
You wiil retire with an officer to the grand
jury room."
THE RAN 1 j: R ISVtSTHlATK.
The grand j iry then went to their rjotn,
where States Attorney L .i n..clter made
known the business with which they had to
deal. A large nutnb.T of witnesses were ex
amined and during the afternoon aud even
ing Judge McDonnell a Ijourne 1 court on the
ground that the public business required the
State's Attorney's presence iu the grand ju
ry room.
Mr. Forrest, of the defense, asked for an
interview with the State's Attorney, and
Longenecker, Wing, Ingham and Forest had
a cjnfaren;?. Fjrrest rjqiisUj that the
jury bribery bu tineas be investigated in open
court instead of by the grand jury. Ail in- j
quiry by the grand jury mtght give the de
fense bat repute before the public An
open investigition, hssvid, wo'ild Clear the
defendants snd their counsel of blain i. This
could not be granted.
IJIDICTMESTS rOUSD.
After a thorough invectigttlon of the char
ges the grandjury late to-nigbl returned in
dictments for attempting jury bribing
against Bailiff Alexander L. Hanks, Bailiff
Mark Salomon, Fred W. Smith, Thomas
Kivanaugh and Jeremiah O'Donnell.

N. Sen not t. is under arrest on a similar
charge, and his indictment is also expected.

Hanged Himself in His Barn.
NokTHANrto.v, Mass., Oct. 20 Oscar N.
Kyle of Florence, Mass., treasurer and mtn
ager ofthe Florence Machine Compa'iy and
ofthe Emerson Power Scale Company, and
also connected with the Hanford Stanford
Brewing Comiieny, committed suicide today
by hanging himself in his barn. His actions
for some time bad been deemed peculiar and
it is thought he was insane. Tbe deceased

kota now in ears and elevators is estimated
st 6,000.003 bushels, as against 3,012,843
bushels at this time last year, and yet we
have been bearing all summer that It was a
very poor season for wheat It takes a phe
nomenally bad year to knock out the far
mers of the United States.
The Chief Reason for ths namlloaa sno
