Pmfue, Deo. 3. There were serious
collisions between the police and large
mobs last nlcht In the Smlehow and
Zlnkn'v suburb of the city. Two per
sons were wounaed. The police made
90 arrests. Some of the persons ar
rested will be court martlaled for hav
ing received with Jeers and groans the
proclamation declaring the city under
martial law.
The ambulance association has Issued
a report showing that within the last
24 houpi four have been killed, 1G0
dangerously wounded and BOO more or
less seriously Injured. Twenty shops
have been burned out.
As a further Indication of the grav
ity of the situation troops to the num
ber of 10,000, equipped with ammuni
tion and other paraphernalia, as for a
cSbinrtlgn, have been engaged In sup
iSfMins the riots.
' t is" not exactly martial law that has
neen proclaimed, but rather the In
stitution of summary civil procedure,
called stand recht, whereby a special
tribunal of seven Judges Is empowered
to Impost capital and other severe sen
tences for -oirenses ordinarily punished
mildly. Theie is no appeal against a
death sentence by the tribunal, which
must be gut Into execution within two
hours by the military if the hangman
is not available.
It la evident that the standrecht was
not proclaimed a moment too soon.
Well dressed men rode on bicycles
through the city and the suburbs mak
ing lists of the German places marked
for attack, and the work of the rioters
being done In acordance with these
lists, and also at many places simul
taneously, prevention was almost Im
possible. Goldsmiths' and Jewelers' show cases
were emptied In a few minutes. "Wom
en carried baskets to take homo the
contents of grocery and provision
stores, while furniture and other ar
ticles too heavy to carry were wan
tonly destroyed. If the troops had not
used their swords and bayonets freely
Prague might have been burned from
end to end.
In several cases Jewish shopkeepers
escaped by the device of placing an
illumined crucifix In the shop window.
The pillaging was so systematic that
In one street alone 15 Jewjsh shops
were ransacked. An ambulance corps
was attacked savagely because tte
doctors were recognized as Germans.
The Intimate knowledge the mob has
displayed of the exact position of all
the wealthiest German houses and of
valuable German property shows that
the riots were organized in advance.
The young Czechs have paraded the
streets wearing'jewelry plundered from
Jewelers' shops, and comparatively few
German houses have escaped attacK.

Vienna, Dec. 3. The parliamentary
deadlock continues. Baron Gautsch,
the new premier, has made no progress
toward a compromise satisfactory to
the rival factions, and it begins to be
feared that the present relchsrath will
never reassemble. Certain it is that if
the relchsrath meets with Dr. Von Ab
rahamovlch In the chair the same dis
orderly scenes will occur as before.
Riots, more or less serious, are re
ported from Innsbruck, Brunn, Linz
and Saaz. In some cases It is alleged
that the disturbances have been en
couraged by the municipal authori
ties. Generally the Bohemian Jews
have suffered most.

Cold Weather
rings Catarrh.
Thouelt tho disagreeable effects of Ca
tarrh are felt all theyear round, cold and
disagreeable weather aggravates the
dlscane and it is during the winter wit
eon that its severest form is felt. Bach
succeeding year seems to intensify the
disease, ao that It gradually fastens ita
hold upon the sufferer with a grasp that
becomes firmer each season.
Catarrh often appears as only a cold at
firs., and is hardly noticed. But gradu
ally the cold returns, and it is more
difficult to cure, and stays longer than for
merly. These symptoms ctnnat be mis
taken: they mark the first appearance of a
disease that will develop in severity and
stubbornness, anawtiicuitts impossible
tocurewith the local treatment of sprays,
washes, and similar applications. Being
a disease of the blood, only a blood
remedy can have the slightest effect
upon it. S.S.S. (Swift'aSpecific) is the
only cure for Catarrh, because it is the
only blood remedy which goes to the
Beat of all obstinate and deep-seated
case", and forces out the disease.
Mr. T. A. Williams, a leading mer
chant of Spartanburg, S. C, writes:
"For four years I had nasal catarrh,
and though the case was a mild one at
Crst.it was not long until I noticed that it
was gradually growing worse. Of course
I wa3 under treatment of first-class phy
sicians, but their remedies were applied
locally, and the disease seemed to be get
ting a firmer hold On me all the while.
"After spending so much money for
treatment which proved to be all in
vain, IwasurgedtotryS.S.S. Thisrem
edy proved to be the right one, for it got at
the disease, and a few bottles cured me
perfectly. The cure was a permanent
one, and I have not had a touch of the
disease for many years. Swift's Spvific
Is the only remedy that will have the
glighest effect upon Catarrh."
Sufferers from Catarrh should get a
start on the disease before the cold
weather aggravates it. Those who have
been relying upon local treatment will
find winter weather is all that is
needed to show that the disease is still
with them. A course of S.S.S. (Swift's
Specific) will prove all assertions made
that it is the only cure for Catarrh: It goes
to the cause of the trouble the blood
and forces out all traces of the disease.
Swift's Specific is the only remedy
which reaches real obstinate blood dis
eases; it cures Catarrh, Rheumatism,
Cancer, Contagious Blood Poison, Ec
zema, Scrofula, and in fact every othet
disease of the blood. It is guaranteed
Purely Vegetable
and is the only blood remedy containing
no potash, mercury or other mineral.

Most Ample nnd Comploto DIsous
Blon of the Whole Mnttor.
Home, Dec. 3. Yesterday the cham
ber of deputies appointed a commission
of five to Inquire Into the ohargeo
against SIgnor Francesco Crlapl, former
premier, in connection with the Bank
of Naples scandals and the alleged il
legal traffic in decorations. The pro
ceeding are the result of the recent de
cision ot the Italian court of cassation,
which quashed the judicial indictment
brought against him on the ground
that the ordinary tribunals of Just lee
were not oompetept to deal with such
charges brought against a former mem
ber ot the government or his conduct
while In the government. The court
of cassation held that such charges
must be dealt with by parliament,
which was the contention of SIgnor
Crlspl, and the Judicial proceedings
were thrown out.
The gpeolal commission was appoint
ed after an Impressive speech by SIg
nor Crlspl, In which he declared that
he desired the most ample and complete
discussion of the whole question. "I
am the victim of calumny," he as
serted, "and should have brought suit
against my calumniators If the mat
ter had not been referred to the cham
ber." SIgnor Crlspl recalled his paBt labors
on behalf of Italy, and he admitted that
BX-PREMIEn CRISPI.
there had been times when he had
erred. He claimed, however, from his
conquerors an unbiased Judgment, and
asserted that he was prepared to testi
fy before the commission and to omit
nothing, so that the matter might be
probed to the deepest, adding pathet
ically, "but it will be very hard.lat 78,
after devoting 03 years to the" service
of my country." ;i4
This nassaire of the sneech rtrovnkpd
violent Interruption, and the presldrfiq
of the chamber formally cautioned tJ7o
Socialist deputies who were Partlejllpr
ly virulent.
SIgnor Crlspl, after order was re
stored, said:
"I remain calm, even In the face of
my adversaries' Invectives. I have a
serene conscience, and I shall die, when
my time comes, with the name of
Italy upon my Hps. But I ask to bal
lowed to pass my last days quietly.. If
Italy needs me, I shall always be
ready to serve her; but I do not have,
and never have had, ambition for
power."
SIgnor Crlspl, the most brilliant Ital
ian statesman since the days of Cb
vour, is called upon to taee, in his ex
treme old age, not accusations of po
litical crimes, but ordinary felonies. lie
has already been subjected to the hu
miliation of magisterial examination in
connection with charges of complicity
In the gigantic frauds that wrecked the
Bank of Naples, the Bank of Rome,
the Bank of Sicily and other kindred
institutions. The Crlspi cabinet was
driven from ofllce as the result of these
scandals. In each case the insolvency
of the bank appeared to have been
brought about through the blackmail
ing extortion to which It was sub
jected by leading politicians and gov
ernment officials of the day. Most of
this dishonesty took place during the
administration of Crlspl.
Not even his most relentless enemy
has ever accused hlinuf plundering the
banks to add to his. private resources.
On the contrary, his countryman for
the most part accepted his assertion
that the money extorted from these in
stitutions was used by him for the se
cret service fund of the government
and electoral expenditure.
Unfortunately for him, the Judicial
au orltles, who Inquired Into the cir
cumstances that led up to the failure
of the banks, discovered that among
the most voracious of the plunderers
was Slgnora Crlspl, the veteran states
man' wife. It was stated at the time
that from one bank something like 10,
000,000 of francs (about $2,000,000) found
Its way Into her private banking ao
oount, and it was urged, and is still
further urged, that SIgnor Crlspl, not
being a rich man, must have known of
his wife's predatory demands, as In no
other way oould he have accounted for
the large sums of money she expended
upon her establishment while he was
in power.
Crlspl's friends assert that just be
fore the 1896 elections SIgnor Crlspi
made a loan of 400,000 lire from the
Bank of Naples for election expenses.
The Crlspl cabinet fell when half the
amount had been repaid, and the bal
ance was made up by the premier's
friends, King Humbert contributing
120,000 lire. Everything was paid up
before the bank's failure, and Crlspl
declared to the king that unless his per
secutors were called off he would de
fend himself to the last, adding: "In
such a case, sire, two persmiB will go
into exile -I as a poor man, and you
with your millions."
The Socialist press interpreted this
audaetous language to be the threat of
disclosures that. In consequence ot a
tip, King Humbert Had saved tbe whole
amount of his large deposits In the
Bank of Naples Just before the crash
came.
