Michigan Girls E ope with Japanese 8tnd*nt» at Aim Arbor. REITARO TAKAXO, one of the six per­ sons to take the advanced degree of mas­ ter of law in tho Michigan University last year, and Kulsutarj Fukushima, who graduated as a bachelor of law on the same day, arc both natives of Japan, and both are pursuing advanced work in the university. They are bright stu­ dents, and Takano is the eldest son of a Japanese nobieman, who lost his rank with tho revision of the Constitution of the empire in 1868. Last Friday these two students, so the two story goes, met by appointment in the depot at Ann Arbor a girl named Fuller, a daughter of respectable parents living three miles from Ypsilanti, and another young woman of Ann Arbor. The four took a train for Detroit. The girls registered at the Griswold House as "Lizzie Lan­ sing and Anna Stevens" of Toledo and Ann Arbor, respectively. Saturday the quartet crossed over to the Queen's dominions to secure marriage licenses, but the Fuller girl being only 16, thair prayer was not granted. A telegram from Toledo says that the quartet ap­ peared in that city, procured licenses, and were married by a Lutheran clergy­ man. The Japanese, while at Toledo, *aid they were wealthy tea merchants. THE RESULT IN KANSAS. later Returns Show that the Stat? Elected a EepubMcan Governor. ' Tint official canvass of the vote? cast at the late election in Kansas has pro­ gressed far enough to show that the en­ tire Republican State ticket ha? been elected with the exception of A. R. Kel­ logg, who is defeated for re-election as Attorney Genera! by Ives, the Farmers' Alliance candidate. The Repubiiean' majority is placed at about 10,000. The vote on Congressmen is not chansred •by the official cojint. The Kr.nsas d' le- jjation win stand two Republican.; and five Farmers' Alliance. The Legis­ lature is still believed to bs controlled by the Farmers' Alliance. Tha People's party managers still claim the election of John F. Willitts, their candidate for Governor, although they freely express the opinion that the Republicans will count him out. They claim that they bave elected eighty-five members of the Legislature, two more than a majority on joint ballot, and that with the Demo­ crats they will have ninety-live members At a meeting of the leaders it was de­ cided to make Mr. Willitts their candi­ date for United States Senator to suc­ ceed John J. Ingalls in the ovent of Mr. Wlllitts being defeated for Governor. | DUN'S WEEKLY REVIEW. ffce Volnma veillance of Drs. Frank H. Ingram, Matthew D. Field, Edwin G»illard, Mason N, ; W.

LATEST returns show that tho Demo­ cratic State ticket was elected in Illinois. The returns from Chicago were unusually late, and materially changed the totals. They show a surprising plurality in Cook County against Amberg of 5,600 votes, and a plurality of 16,500 against Ed wards.

THE horrible suicide of Asa Gray, a prominent young farmer residing eight miles south of here, is this evening more fully confirmed, a correspondent writes from Goshen, Ind. He had been asking Miss Eva Pottinger, a beautiful neigh­ bor of his, to marry him, but she had con­ tinually refused. Yesterday morning ho called on her, asked her again if she would not marry him, and, upon her re­ fusal, seized her about the neck with his left arm, pressing his cheek close to hers, and with his right hand placed a 38-caliber revolver to his temple and fired, the ball penetrating his brain and causing instant death. His brains and blood bespattered Miss Pottinger's face and dress, and she will lose her naind. IK a wreck of a passenger train on the Northwestern Road at Beloit, Wis., Thomas Welch, a firomau, was killed by being thrown under the engine, which tipped over. Thomas King, tho engineer, was badly scalded. Tho engine was broken into a shapeless to ass of iron, and the baggage-car was knocked all out of shapo Tlie passen­ ger coaches were derailed, but no one in them was hurt. The accident was occa­ sioned by a switch not being properly securod. That many more lives were not lost is a wonder. A LARGE frame barn on tho farm of James M. Perry, who lives four miles north of Columbus, Ind., on the Jeffer- aonville, Madison and Indianapolis .Rail­ road, was set on fire by a passing engine and consumed, together with 1,000 bush­ els of grain, twenty-four tons of hay, two reaping machines, and other farm­ ing implements. The loss is estimated »t §8,000, with an insurance of $400. THE NATIONAL CAPITAL. A STATEMENT prepared at the Treas­ ury Department shows that during the month of October there was a net in­ crease of $924,008 in circulation, princi­ pally in gold coin, and a net decrease of 510,756,72? in money and bullion in the .Treasury. The amount of the new Treasury notes in circulation is $11,407,- 351. THERE was as much discussion as to the probability of an extra session in November as there was of the election, says a Washington telegram. Many seemed to think that whether or not an extra session would be called would de­ pend upon tho issue of the voting. Tho Democrats very generally main­ tain that if it should appear that the Re­ publicans have lost the House of Repre? sentativfes a special session will be called to meet about two weeks before the time of the December' session. They insist that the administration intends to make an issue of the apportionment bill and of the election bill, and that it will be regarded by the Republicans of the ut­ most importance to secure two weeks' additional time for legislation before March 4 if they are not to control both houses of Congress after that. POLITICAL PORRIDGE. IT is thought the whole Democratic State ticket in Michigan is elected by from 0,000 to 15,000 p. .rality. The Leg­ islature is also Democratic, the Senate by about three majority and the House by some fifteen on 'a fusion vote with Patrons of Industry, who hold the bal­ ance of power. The First, Second, 11 lfth, Sixth, Seventh, Eighth, and Tenth Congressional Districts have gone Demo­ cratic, and the Third, Fourth, Ninth and Eleventh Republican. AN estimate of the result of the elec­ tion in Kansas, so far as it affects the complexion of the Legislature, gives tho following figures: Republicans, 75; anti- Repnblicans, including Farmers' Allianco and Democrats, <to. Of the 75 Republi­ cans about 15 Senators pledged them­ selves to vote a-cording to the will of the people of their districts as expressed in the vote for Representatives. Nino of these districts returned Alliance men. To secure re-election Mr. Ingalls must control 84 votes. The Legislature is now apparently against him "by 15 votes at least and possibly 24. Chairman Buchanan of the Kansas State Central Committee telegraphs that Humphrey, R., is elected Governor. All but eighteen counties give him a plurality of 4,989. These eighteen counties have a total vote of only 30,000^ and they may bo counted upon t# increase his plurality, Mr. Buchanan says. In the Second District Broderick, / R., is elected to Congress over Moonlight, D. Mr. Ingalls have been received will not affect the general result materially..' Returns and estimates from tho same counties on Superintendent of Public Instruction indicate tho election of Raab, D., over Edwards. R., by a plurality of 35,445. COMPLETE returns have been received from more than one-half -the precincts in California outside of San Francisco and from about two-thirds tho precincts in that city. These returns give Mark- ham, R., for Governor more than 10,000 plurality over Pond, D., and also show that the Republicans have elected the entire State ticket by a similar plurality. The entire Republican ticket in that city, with the exception of one minor office, is undoubtedly elected by plu­ ralities ranging from a few hundred to 4,000. There seems to be no doubt that the Republicans have elected five out of six Congressmen in the State and indica­ tions are the entire Congressional dele­ gation will be Republican, though tho contest in the First District is close. Returns from a little less than half tho precincts in the First District show that Barharn, R., is leading by 116 voles. The Legislature, which will elect a United States Senator, will have a large Repub­ lican majority in both branches. >i afg FOREIGN GOSSIP. AT the Royal Victoria Albert docks, London, eight hundred of the men there employed refused to accept the decision of the leaders and went on strike. At all of tlie docks work is proceeding's usual. . A MADRID dispatch says that the Spanish Government is .in very gloomy financial straits, and that the proposed high tariff is not so much a measure of protection as to raise revenue. THE police precautions at all the im­ perial palaces at St. Petersburg have been increased. No loiterers aro per­ mitted in the vicinity of tho Anitchkoff Winter Palace. The railway stations between St. Petersburg and GatSchina are doubly guarded, and the minutest examinations are made of every route traversed by the Czar. MAURICE BERNHARDT, son of Sarah Bernhardt, has challenged M. Mourey, dramatic critic, to fight a duel. Tho challenge has beea accepted and the duel will take place near Paris. The affair is the result of M. Mourey's com­ ments on Mme. Bernliardt's perform­ ance in "Cleopatra." TnE London Times? commenting on the results of the elections in the United States, says it will not be easy for tho Democrats to find a more able Presi­ dential candidate than Mr. Cleveland, or one better fitted to follow up their pres-^ ent success. FRESH AND N EWSY. Miss LIZZIE O. SMITH, known as the modern martyr, who has been a helpless invalid fifty-five years, died at her home in Willimantic, Conn.

At Least Those Aro tho Flaroros Given Out by Hw Census Bureau as the Total Population of the United Ktates--Growth of the Western States--Soma Comparl- [Washlngton dispatch.] ^°- 12 on the population of the United States has been issued by the Census Offico. It s&ys; , The population of the United States June 1, 1890, as shown by the first count of per­ sons and families, exclusive of white per- sons in Indian Territory, Indians on reser­ vations, and Alaska, was 62,480,640. These figures may be slightly changed by later and more exact compilations, but such changes will not be material. In 1880 the population was 50,155,783. The absolute increase of the population In the ten years intervening was 12,324,757 and i o^n Pfrcentage of lncrease was 24.57. In 1870 the population was stated as 38,558,371. According to these figures the absolute in­ crease in the decade detween 1870 and 1880 was 11,507,412 and the percentage of- In­ crease was 30.08. Upon their face these figures show that the population has increased between 1880 18?,° ™ly J27'345 than between 1870 and 1880, while the rate of increase has apparently diminished from 30.08 to 24.57 per cent. If these figures were derived from correct data, they would be indeed disappointing. Such a reduction In the rate of increase In the face of the enormous im­ migration during tho last ten years would argue a great diminution In the fecundity of' the population or a corresponding in­ crease in its death rate. These figures are, however, easily explained when the char­ acter of the data used is understood. It is well known, the fact having been demonstrated by extensive and thorough Investigation, ih'at the census of 1870 was grossly deficient in the Southern States, so much so as not only to give an exag­ gerated rate of increase of the population between 1870 and 1880 in these States hut to aflect very materially the rate of Increase in the country at large. These omissions were not the fault nor were they within the control of the Census Office. The census of 1870 was taken under a law which the Su­ perintendent, Gen. Francis A. Walker, char­ acterized aR "clumsy, antiquated, and bar­ barous." The Census Office had no power over its enumerators save a barren protest, •and Its right was even questioned In some quarters.- Some of Superintendent Porter's com-htUAIIAIi ^ 1 \ tjujjci iu bciiuciiu rurwr s com™ JSOTiSrvSssa the „ 6.50 3.75 o 4.2S 3.03 <se 5.50 .98!4£ .99 .52 •» .O6?2 0 .24 <a .08V,® .63 .40 4 00 8.50 .97 .53 .44 .CO 2.00 3.00 3.00 L00 .55 _ .46V.@ /5 .5 .71 & .43 .27 .<«!4 .'21 .8j & 4.59 & 4.25 & 4.50 & 1.01 <0 .63% & .47 @ 5.00 0 4.25 0 .98 & .53 0# .44J6 © .71 & 4.00 84 4.23 ® 4.75 & 1.01 & .53 09 & .9054 .54)4 .*7^ .72 .70 3.00 8.03 3.03 1.01 .65 .48 1.00 ,55 0 4.25 & 3.75 & 4.75 (9 1.02 I« ,65'i .48 '-a & 1-CO'i <<• .50 .47^-9 .485$ 4.00 8.50 1.09 .67 3.50 4.00 4.00 4.00 8.50 4.00 4.00 1.06 .SO .47 & 4.53 & 4.5J C5 1.10 & .67}, <9 4.50 (4 4.50 & 6.00 & 6.75 e 4.75 © 4.25 <9 5.5'J 1.08 .61 •P# Secretary of State--KltyiAin Cushman, I).

CLAIMS OF THE FARMERS. Alliance Men Figure Out a Big; Victory tor Their Candidates. The Farmers' Alliance people at the national headquarters of the organization in Washing­ ton aro figuring out a great victorv for the farm­ ers in the results of Tuesday's elections. Mr. L. L. Polk, the President, is absent from the city, but Mr. D. H. Bittenhouse. the Secretary of the organization, talked £ a rePorter on the subject. He said that as tho smoke clears away it be­ comes more and more apparent that the farm­ ers' organizations have asserted themselves. It was the first- oppo-tunitv given organized effort to Bhow that boss rtilo has come to an end. The farmer*' organizations desire! to re­ buke the porty that defeated froe coinage of silver and framed a tariff law that imposed greater burdens on the poor man than on the rich. Mr. Rittenhouse, in reply to a request for some sp^c-iflc. statements of what the Allianco accomplished in the election, said he could not give all tho evidence, but the returns, he said, are sufficient to provo his statement. In the I1 astern States, where the Farmers' League is strong, they and the Knights of Labor have aided in showing this CongrorS that their de­ mand for free coinage was no idle one. This was most notable in Massachusetts and New Hampshire, where the two organizations are stronffost. Tho Farmers' League and Alliance had just securcd a good foot­ hold in New Yoik and New Jersey, and the changes are not so startling. The Grangers, Knights of Labor, the League, and the farmers' Allianco were organised well in Pennsylvania, and the farmers and laborers gave bossism a rebuke of large proportions. In Ohio, he said, thorn is no State organization of tho Alliance. Indiana ar.d Illinois have been organized but throe months. The Mutual Bene­ fit Association did much good work there. West Virginia has just been organized. Ihere the Alliaucu cannot so poweiful as iu Virginia. In the Southern States the fights wore made at the primaries. Mr. ltittenhouse called particular attention to the effects in Missouri, Kaugas, Nebraska, Wis­ consin, Colorado, and other States. Just, he said, iu proportion to the unity of organization BO has beon the cyclone. The reporter a-iked Mr. Rittenhouse if he meant to say that the Farmers' Alliance is an auxiliary to tho Democratic party. He replied not by any means. Tho Democratic party fought the Allianco in South Carolina and at other points; but ths farmers desired to rebuke the party in power for its reckless dis­ regard of the x^ople's demand. This Congress was petitioned for free coinage from almost every Allianco in the United States. The petitions were refern <1. This ground swell does not prove that the Alliance and kindred orgaidzatious will support the Democrats in 18r»'2. If the Democrats fail to give a greater volume of currency tney will receive the same kind of punishment In 18'.»2. "We are deter­ mined," he said. ".o be felt, and if this Houso ignores our petitions we will tend to Washing­ ton a Houso of our own." WHAT CLEVELAND TI11NK8. Views of the Ex-Presldent on tlie Results ot the Election. To a reporter who asked for an expression of his opinions on the results of the elections ex- President Cleveland said : "I am delighted. Iehallenge the right of any man in tho country to rejoice more lwartlly than I over the results of yesterday. My grati­ fication is that of an American, proud of his fellow-countryman, who, though led away for a time by party prejudices ana l>y blind confi­ dence in cunning and s jlfish leaders, could not be deluded to their ruin. "They have demonstrated that in dealing with them it is not safe to calculate that they are stupid or heedless of the welfare of their coun­ try. The necessity of tariff reform, with its consequent reduction in the cost of living, and the duty of tho Democratic party to advo­ cate it, havo been fully demonstrated by the action of the people yesterday. Their decision has been deliberately made, aEd it is all the I more significant because they have voted upon their reason and judgment and because they •have proved that corruption is powerless as against their convictions. "Of course, there is nothing for tho Demo­ cratic party to do but to push on the battle at all limes and in all places on the lines which they have laid down--that is, to insist upon a wise adjustment of tariff taxation to the rea­ sonable nt;edH of the Government, as opposed to the plan which enriched a favored class at tho expense of the masHf s of tho people. Until tho victory is won tho question of tariff reform will not ho settled, nor tho pledgos and profes­ sions of the Democratic par^y to the x^cople re­ deemed." SOME very interesting and possibly , important experiments have been made j during the past five years by Dr. Gau­ cher, of l'aris. Bacilli of tuberculosis •were injected into several rabbits, pro­ ducing the disease iu all cases. Other rabbits were then inoculated in just the same manner, but were fed afterward with bran mixed with boracic acid. On killing these rabbits after a time, no trace of tubercular disease could be found. How far the boracic acid might be beneficial to the human viciim of tuberculosis is not known, but in such trials as have been made lung decay has been arrested and improvement in every way has resulted. All the work of a Christian should be Christian work. spread of population are interesting, particularly as regards the Western States. In Ohio, Indiana, Iowa, and Missouri', and in Illinois, if the city of Chicago be dropped from consideration, the rate of increase has declined decid­ edly. In Ohio it has fallen from 20 to 15 percent.; in Indiana, from 18 to 11; in Iowa, from 36 to 17; in Missouri, from 26 to 23 per cent., in spite of the rapid growth of St. Louis and Kansas City; and in Illinois, dropping Chicago from consideration, from 14.9 to 5.6 per cent. In these States the agricultural in­ dustry, which Is still the prominent one, has begun to decline, owing to the sharp competition ol vV^tern fjB^Thc form­ ing population has and the growth df ma yet sufficiently rapi losses. The southern p<?„ -- gan, Wisconsin, and Minnesota similar conditions, but the northern i,._ of these States, lying upon the frontie, of settlement, have filled up with suf­ ficient rapidity to repair either wholly or in part the losses of the southern parts. Michigan increased at the rate of 38 per cent, between 1870 and 1880, while be­ tween 1880 and 1890 the rato was but 28 per cent. The increase between 1880 and 1890 was cut into unequal parts by the Stato census taken in 1884. In the first four years of the decade the incrcaso was 13.2 per cent., while in the last six it was 12.7 per cent. In Wisconsin the last decade shows an increase of 28 per ccnt., as against an incrcaso of 25 per cent, in tho decade between 1870 and 1880. The State census of Wisconsin, taken in 1885, cuts tho decade into two equal parts, and shows an increase in the first half of 18.8 per cent., and dur­ ing the second half of but 7.7 per cent. Minnesota increased 78 per cent, be­ tween 1870 and 1880 and 67 per cent, be­ tween 1880 and 1890, tho numerical in­ crease being over half a million in the last decade. The State census, taken In 1885, shows that the bulk of this increase occurred between 1880 and 1885. The numerical increase during the first years was 337,025, and tho rate of increase 43 per cent., while during tho last half of the decade the numerical increase was 182,219 and the rate of increase 16.3 per cent. • During the last ten years tho popula­ tion of Dakota, considering the two States of North Dakota and South Da­ kota together, has increased from 135,- 177 to 510,273, or 277 percent.; Nebraska from 452,402 to 1,056,793, or 134 per cent.; and Kansas from 996,096to 1,423,- 485, or 43 per cent. This in­ crease has not, however, con­ tinued uniformly throughout the dec­ ade. In 1885 Dakota contained 415.610 inhabitants, or more than four-fifths of its present population. Nebraska con­ tained 740,645 inhabitants in the same year, thus dividing the numerical in­ crease quite equally between the two halves of tho decade, but leaving the greater percentage in the first half. In tho same year Kansas by its State census had 1,268,530 inhabitants, show­ ing that nearly two-thirds of the numer­ ical gain was acquired during the first halt of tho decade. The industries of theso States are almost purely agricult­ ural, and are dependent upon the supply of moisture, either in the form of rain or by irrigation. Through these States passes what is known as the subhtfmid belt, a strip of country several degrees in width, in which during rainy years there is an abundance of moisture for the needs of crops, while in tho years when the rainfall is below the average the supply is deficient. In this region little provision has boon made for artificial irrigation, tho settlers hav­ ing thus far been content to de­ pend upon rainfall. Into this region tho settlers flocked in largo numbers in the early years of tho decade, drawn thither by the fertility of tho land and by the fact that for a few years tho rainfall had been sufficient for the needs of agricul^ turc. During the kist two or three years, however, tho conditions of rain­ fall havo materially changed. It has fallen decidedly below the normal, and settlers havo thereby been forced to emi­ grate. Thousands of families have abandoned this region and gone to Okla­ homa and the Rocky Mountain region. This migration is well shown in tho prog­ ress of Kansas, as indicated by its annual censuses. Theso censuses show a rapid increase in population from 1880 up to 1887; 1888 shows but a slight in­ crease over 1887, while 1889 shows a reduction in the population, leading up to tho further reduction shown by the Federal census in 1890. Throughout tho South Atlantic and Southern Central States tho rate of in­ crease has diminished, and in most of these States it has diminished material­ ly. A certain reduction in the percent­ age of increase, especially in the eastern part of this region, was to be expected, due not only to the operation of general laws but also to the fact that there has been considerable emigration from tho States east of the Mississippi River to the westward and but little immigration. Taken together,however,these two causes by no means account for the reduction In the rate of increase in theso States. The real cause is to be found, it is stated, in the imperfections of the census of 1870. These imperfections resulted in giving a comparatively low rate of In­ crease between 1860 and 1870 and an ex­ aggerated increase between 1870 and 1880. Arkansas has continued to grow at a rapid rate, having increased 40 per cent, in the last ten years. Texas also has increased with great rapidity, the numerical increase of its population be­ ing 640,471, or over 40 per cent. In the far Western section the condi­ tions of growth have been varied. In the earlier years of the decade the dis­ covery of valuable silver and copper mines in the mountains of Montana to the neighborhood of Butte drew to that State a large immigration, which is en­ gaged not only in mining but in devel­ oping the rich agricultural resources. Wyoming has continued to grow with accelerated rapidity. The census of Colorado in 1880 wa» taken on the top wave of a mining ex­ citement, which had filled its mountain* with miners, prospectors, and specu­ lators, increasing its population enor­ mously, especially in the mountainous, country. The census of the Stato taken in 1885 was, on a super­ ficial view, surprising. It showed that most of the mining counties bad lost population during the five years preceding. This loss was, how­ ever, more than made up by the growth of its cities and its agricultural coun­ ties. The census of 1890 shows still far­ ther reduction of population in the min­ ing regions of the State and an extraor­ dinary development of its urban popu­ lation and its Coating element. New Mexico, Arizona, and Utah show rates of increase which are small when the sparsely settled condition of these terri­ tories is considered; while Nevada shows an absolute diminution of population of 17,939, or nearly 29 per cent, leaving it the smallest of all the States^ TERRIBLE CRASH AT SEA. Nearly One Hundred Lives Lost In a Col­ lision. An unknown schooner, apparently bound east, with a load of coal, ran down the Spanish steamship Vizcaya, outward bound from New York, and cut it half in two amidships. Within ten minutes both vessels had sunk in twelve fathoms of water, their masts showing above it. Of the ninety-seven persons ' on board tho steamer nearly all went down with the hull. Some thirty clung to the railing, and a few of" the schooner's crew, with three of the crew of the steamer, found clinging' space in the upper rigging of the latter. As the night advanced, the cold and con­ sequent exhaustion claimed the weaker ones, and they dropped into the water- one by one, aud were drowned. Only- twelve--four officers and eight seamen-- were still in tho rigging at daylight, when the tramp steamer Ilumbolt res­ cued the survivors by means of its boats. This terrible disaster occurred within eight miles of tho New Jersey coast at Barnegat. Sixteen passengers, a steam­ ship crew of sixty-five, and a schooner crew of - probably sixteen, 'the usaafr-- number--ninety-seven in all--certainly perished. Among the passengers who were lost ^as Signor Juan Pedro, a millionaire of [ana, who wa.s the chief owner of jania Transatlantic Espanola, "iSLway homo after a sum- J3e took this steamer led one of the finest ^^^^^^^_Jine. The surviving officers fNQj^^^Hhe schooner had no lights out. nNHffts fairly on top of the steamer before she was seen, though the night was clear. Capt.

"Madam," he said, straightening up, "please be so generous as to pardon this apparent intrusion. My little girl and I were coming alohg here just now, and the child, in her gay frolicsome- ness, ran across your green sward, but in her glad forgetfulness dropped a silver dollar that had been given her by one of the handsomest and noblest of women.
