YICEROY DISMISSED FROM OFFICE. Liu, Whose Neglect Made Missionary Mur ders Possible, Can Never Again Hold Office Our Government's Investi gation of the Chengtu Affair. Washington, Oct. 1. Minister Dcnby cabins tho stnto department from l'oklng as follows: "Imporiul decroo Issued: Ab stract Responsibility for Szcclnian riots rest with ofllchils. Viceroy Ltti careless; took no notico of tho beginning of tho riots. Ho Is deprived of office, never ngnln to bo employod. Other ofllelals to bo pun ished." This would seem to lndicato that tho crisis impending in China, Involving n un vnl demonstration by tho British forces, has been averted, for n tlmo at least, by a oonipliunco with tho principal demands of the British. It cannot bo learned, howovor, whether tho decroo coucodos nil of tho demands mado, and tho cablegram makes no refer once to tho sweeping condition Imposed by tho British minister that tho guilty of ficials bo punisned by suspension for threo years of all promotions and appointments la tho civil service in tho province of Szcchunn. Viceroy Liu, whoso fall is announced, has been In troublo before It is under stood that ho was found guilty last No vember of misappropriation of funds, and later on, becauso tho French investigation Bhowcd that ho was rosponslblo for the Chengtu, riots, ho was obliged to pay an indemnity of $800,000 to tho French Cuth olio missions from his own pocket. Tho present conclusion, which has been brought about apparently by British threats, will not involve tho abandonment of tho independent investigation into tho Chengtu riots which has boon ordered by Secretary Olney. The reason for tho dolay In organizing and sending forward tho American com mission to Chengtu has just transpired. It aroo from tho insistence of our Ktato de partment upon sending the commission overland, Instead of up tho Yuug-tso-Klaug river. Tho Chineso government was extremely unwilling to havo tho journey mado In this fashion, whllo they had no objection to sending tho commis sioners up tho river In a steamboat. As tho department felt that tho passage of tho commission overlund through tho breadth of China, accompanied by a formidable es cort, would havo -a most salutary moral effect upon tho Chineso, resembling, as It would, a demonstration in force, tho point was insisted upon, and it is felt that r. substantial advantugo has been gained in tho concession.

HE GOOSE 111 LI IRE. Tramps Feast Upon Turkey Run the Industry of People. POLICEMAN KERWIN'S DISCOVERY. Three Knights of tho Koad Had Very Com fortably Located Themselves for the Winter In the Sheltering Recess of a. Mlno Breach. The people of Turkey Run have been por ploxed for some time past by depredations on their pig pens and chicken coops and not withstanding persistent watchfulness and prompt tracings after each act they always failed to track the guilty parties, or recover tho stolon property. On Friday last Mrs. Howells lost a large whito goose in which sbo took almost as much prido as tho logendary goose that laid tho golden egg is esteemed by tho ohildron who read about it. Tho prize was too much for Mrs. Howells to lose without a protest and she instituted a vig orous search throughout the neighborhood forthwith, but without success. Failing in tho sphoro of a detectivo the woman called upon Policeman Kerwiu and appealed for his aid. Slio had hut a hog a short time be foro and asked tho officer to tako that loss incidentally into consideration. True to his promise and the dutios of his office the policeman went to work on tho case Ho, too, was unsuccessful at first and what hq subsequently discovered was the re sult of an accidental glance. He was taking a stroll through the highways and by-ways of Turkey Run yesterday when ho discovered smoko curling from a mine breach at a dis tance. He concluded that tho broach wis on fire and walked to tho placo to cut oil' any possible danger by a spread of tho flames into tho innor workings. When lie reached tho brink of tho broach ho was as much sur prised as was Robinson Crusoe when lie dis covered the foot prints in tho sand on his lonoly island. At the bottom of tho breach was a cooking stove and utensils and several articles of household usefulness that had passed service some timo. Korwin was the only human being near tho place, but tho ar rangement indicated that it was not deserted, lleforc leaving Korwin picked up and put in his pocket two feet of a goose. Last night Policemen Kirwin and Hand made a raid on the breach and arretted three ns tough looking specimens of humanity as can be imagined. When arranged before Jus tice Williams one gave the name of William' Howie and said lie lived in Connecticut, but tpecificd no place. Tho second said ho was Michael Scunlan and had no home. Tho third proved to bo James Devine, a local rep resentative of the fraternity of bums. They were charged with tho larceny of Mrs. Howell's gooe, but donied the accusation They admitted having cooked a duck in tho broach, but declared they purchased it from a farmer. At this point Policeman Kcrwin drew tho feet of the gooso from his pocket and remarked that it was a left-handed duck tho man had feasted upon. Ueforo the bums could recover from tho consternation the policeman's strategy had produced they were hustled to tho lockup to await further hear ing this evening. Genuiuo free snapper toup at Breen's to night. Fits, Epilepsy nud Convulsions positively cured in young or old at Ladles' Medical Institute, Kaier's Hotel, Mahanoy City. A Strong Company. Tho attraction at Ferguson's theatre last night was tho production of "Julius Ciowir" by tho Hanford-Spencer-O'Urlen Company. Tho audience was a select one, and tho seating capacity of tho theatre was pretty well taxed. Judging from tho size of the audience, tho management would do well to book more shows of this class. Tho produc tion last night was of a high order. Mr. Han- ford's interpretation of tho character of Marc Antony was as forcible and intelligent as ever seen here. In tho third act, when ho coptured tho Roman populace by his oration over CioNir's body, was delivered with groat effect, and his eloquence, his pulsion and his gestures wore displayed to good advantage Mr. Hunford is especially adapted to the part his face, his physique and his voice combining to mako him a born tragedian. His wus a masterly pieco of acting. Mr. Spencer gave an admirable impersonation of the lean and hungry cousplrator, Cassius. It requires an actor of much ability to play this difficult rolo, and Mr. Spencer was oquul to tho par.. James Curdon's "llrutus" and Jliss O'Rriou's "Portia" wore far above tho aventgo, and tho entire eoininy whs evenly balaucod. Tho production wag highly ap preciated by the large audience, and a wo ond engagement by Mr. Hunford and his company will pack the house. Sclicllly House. Oyster soup to-night.

MAX SCHMIDT. Convention Aftermath. It is a growing evil in both tho Republican and Democratic parties that so many im pecunious chapn nm for delegatoibips solely to have their expenses to tho convention paid by candidates. Considerable amusement was created among tho newspaper men by an elderly man from Mahantougn, who claimed his nanio was not printed as a delegate and ho wanted it there to show the folks nt homp he was preeout. Tho younger men .seemed to havo charge of tho convention, very few of tho older heads being 011 tho floor. Mlddleton's vote was 171 and Ahrensfold's 138 on the final ballot for Director oftho Poor. Shenandoah's delegation voted as expected for chairman and District Attorney, amj stuck to Steve Miihlleton for Director of the Poor on all threo ballots. Robt. Allison, of Port Carbon, and Shoriff Scott were prominent supporters of lireckons. H. S. Albright makes a good chairman. He had a lively time trying to stop tho buzzing of spectators in the rear of the hall. The headquarters of the two vandidates for District Attorney Slmy was no bona lido one were viaited by lots of delegates looking tor tlieir expenses." Calling tho rull is a fatiguing job. 'Squire M. J. Lawlor tried it for a whilo and re liuguished it to Clerk of the Courts Shortall. Tho Democratic candidates were all present at the convention anxious to learn who were their opponents. Ellas Davis' speech nominating Edwards reminded ono very much of tho oratory of Welsh preachers of tho old school when properly wanned up to their work, whilo Daniel Dufl'y's was on Daniel O'Connell's lines. Roth were heartily applauded. Dr. Seyfert wus the centre of a coterie of tho leading citizens of Piuegrovo who were enthusiastic in his behalf. Editor Tom Joyce, looking well-fed and prosperous, was conspicuous among the news papermen.
