The banks M» running uirh narrow reserves, and artificial Stringency may at any lima bo engineered, but the movement of crops has been heavy. Mer­ chandise exports f<r three weeks show a gain of 14 per cent, over last year, against a gain of 10 per cent, in imports. Them is a little more stringency at Omaha, less at Cleveland, and an active demand with conservative tone at Chicago, but otherwise the markets West and South all report supplies adequate lor legitimate needs. Collections are un­ usually satisfactory at almost all ©dots, though Milwaukee notes some tardiness, because farmers hold back products for better prices. The volume of trade, is greater than a year ago. Chicago finds a larger mcr<ase, par­ ticularly in dry-goods, wbil" Kales of clotl i :g and shoes are fair, of provisions larger thau laBt year's, aud of grain abo.:t as large. The •wool trade has br-en th • largest, at New York for a long time, and more active at Boat on. where sales wore 3,100.000 pounds, but dull at Phila­ delphia. Iron grows stronger.

Ten deaths have oc­ curred from the latter disease and nearly as many from the former. The local phj-- eician has at prestet some fift^y cases on his hands. Business has been almost en­ tirely suspended. THE flouring mill of the L. C. Porter Milling Company, at Winona, Minn., has been destroyed by tire. The capacity of the mills was' 1,400 bushels daily.

AT Lexington, ATo., tke residence of ex-Mayor Ballard was burned, Mrs. Ballard, who was of unsound mind, per­ ishing in the flames- She was alone in tiie house. The number of insane persons in Kan­ sas far exceeded the capacity of the State asylums last spring, and since then pa­ tients have been refused admitanoe to these institutions. Mad men are now confined in private houses in many in­ stances, and every county jail and poor- house contains a number, some of them incurable. THE convention of squawmen in the Chickasaw Nation, called to memorialize Congress to allot the Chickasaw lands in severalty and give the Nation a Terri- ' torial government, has been postponed j until after the adjournment of the Chick - i asaw Legislature, at the request of Gov. > Bird, who promises to urge that body to ; repeal the disfranchising amendment of i the constitution if the squawmen w^ll | cease their agitation of the question of allotment and Territorial government.

Lieutenant Uravenreuth's men are continuing the pursuit of the rebels. THE nihilists are again active in St, Petersburg, and the city during the past month has been flooded with their revo­ lutionary proclamations. The police are entirely at a loss to explain how these documents are printed or distributed. It is asserted that the printing is done in Paris under the protection of certain high government officials tainted with revolutionary doctrines, and that the French capital is also the headquarters of the nihilist newspaper, the Struggle, which is printed expressly for circulation in Russia, large editions being periodi­ cally spirited across the Russian border in spite of every police precaution. OfcCMA, the Prime Minister of Japan, has had a leg amputated aas a result of the attempt upon his life. IN the German Reichstag Herr von Levelzo^r was re-elected President, and Herren Ruhl and Bombst First and Second Vice Presidents, respectively. A LISBON cablegram* says: Luis I., King of Portugal, is dead. The King passed away quietly. He became uncon­ scious some time before he expired, his life went out almost without a tremor. Paralysis was the cause of' his death. The Duke of Braganza, who succeeds to the throne, will assume the title of Car­ los I. • King Luis I. was born Oct. 31, 1838. He was the son of the late Queen Maria II. and the late Prince Ferdinand • of Saxe-Coburg. His royal mother was the first sovereign of the line of Braganza to break through the custom, which had prevailed for two centuries, of keeping up alliances with the reigning houses or Spain. Her union with Prinoe Ferdi­ nand resulted in the beginning of the house of Braganza - Coburg, the first sovereign of which was her son Pedro V., at whoso death, in liStil, Lais succeeded to the throne. The young King took to wife Pia, the roundest daughter of Iviug Victor Emanuel of tuly. They wore married Oct. 6, 18:i2, when the bridegroom was '24 yjars old and the bride o:ily 15. From this union wore bora two sons, the elder of whom, Priuco Carlos, Duke of Bra- gi'iiza, bom iu 18tj , is a cultivated man. Prince Carlos married a daughter of the Count de Paris, tho moat formidable of pretenders to monarch­ ical rule over France. King Luis has been a wise and liberal King, toiling to establish free* doirt and education and encouraging railroads and telegraphs, but the people appear to have lost Jhal enterprising character which made them' so active during the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries. * THE JURY SECURED.

After Two Kent** of Wearjr Labor Twain .Good Mtm and Trtfe, of Unbiased Opinioa, ' Are Selected to Test the Guilt or InnO- * cenoe of the Five tiuapecti. • The jury for the trial of the Cronfn sus­ pects at Chicago has been secured. The first four jurors were sworn in Sept 18, and the second panel .was ob« tained Wept. 27. The time since then has been occupied in getting the four men sworn In Tuesday. The twelfth and last juror, the search for whom has been in progress for several days, was found in the person of Benjamin F. Clark, a real-estate dealer at 214 LaSalle street. Mr. Clark was first ex­ amined by Mr. Hynes fpr the prosecution and tendered to tne defense. Mr. Forrest gave him a searching examination and challenged him for cause on account of his optniona The challenge was overruled by the court, and M«\ Foster, for Beggs, asked him a lew questions. Nearly every permissible question had previously been asked by either Hynes or Forrest and Fos­ ter's examination was practically restricted to questions intended to show Clark's opinions about the guilt or innocence of Beggs. Foster accepted Clark in spite of the challenge preferred by the other at­ torneys and reteiidered him to the State, together with Messrs. Marlor Bontecou, aud Bryan, who had been accepted jurors on the last panel for several days. After cousultation between the State's attorneys, Mr. Clark was accepted and the panel of four men completing the jury, was sworn in. The work of getting the jury began Aug. 20. Allowing for the time occupied by the court with the drainage commission and the adjournment asked for by tho State's attorney, seven weeks have been occupied in selecting the twelve men. There were summoned men t»y spe­ cial venire and 24 from the regular venire, making l,llfr men in all. The attorneys examined and excused 927. The de'ense used 97 peremptory challenges, Beggs having '3 left when the jury was com­ pleted, and the state 32. In appearance the jury is far above tbo ordinary one in intelligence and general knowledge of affairs. There are no great men on the jury, neither are there any who are not capable of understanding the: complicated testimony which will of neces­ sity be submitted in a trial where con­ spiracy is one of the charges and circum­ stantial evidence the means of proof, in ag?s the jurors range from 30 to 55 yearsi. The jury is a collection of sensible citizen^, who are at least capable of rendering a verdict in accordance with the law and evidence. The personnel of the jury is as follows: JOHN Cin/vEft, real estate dealer, Amer­ ican, aged 40, Methodist. JAMES PEARSON, farmer, Pennsylvania Dutch, aged 55; Protestant, not a church member, married. JOHN L. HALL, draughtsman. American, aged 29, Methodist, married. CHARLES C. DIX, cashier, American, aged about 27, attends Episcopal church, single. HENRY D. WALKER, upholsterer, American, aged 58, Protestant, not a church member, married. FRANK ALLISON, " machinist, American, aged 39, no religion, married. GEORGE L. COKKE, drug clerk, English par­ entage, aged!», Methodist, married. WILLIAM S. NORTH, sewing machine manu­ facturer, aged 43, American, Presbyterian, married. ELIJAH W. BONTECOU, salesman, aged 32, American, Protestant, not a church member, married. E. S. BRYAN, salesman, aged 35, American, Episcopalian, married. BENJAMIN F. CLARK, real estate dealer. American, aged ^attends Methodist church, married. The evidence showing Dr. Cronin's en­ trance into the Carlson cottage on the night of the murder will, it is said, be conclusive. Judge Longenecker expects to prove by good witnesses the following fa ts: On the night of May 4 two men had oc­ casion to goto Lake View to arrange some deal in real estate in which they were in­ terested. One of these is an Irish-Ameri­ can and a member of the Clnn-na-Oael or­ ganization. The other is a reputable American citizen. They were detained until a late hcur and stopped at the house of a friend to supper. They did not get through until after 9 o'clock, and on their way home they had to walk by the Carlson cottage. As they passed the scene of the murder they saw a buggy drive up. In it were seated two men, and as they passed by one of the pedestrians said to the other as the buggy drove past, "See that man on the far side of the buggy; that is Dr. Cronin, the Irish nationalist." As he spoke the words the buggy pulled up. It stopped in front of the Carlson cottage. Cronin sprang out and rushed up the steps as if he had been summoned on a case of great emergency. The man who drove the buggy stepped out and walked up a couple of steps. The Clan-na-Gael pedes­ trian was on the point of hailing Dr. Cronin and speaking to him, but as the latter appeared to be in such a hurry he refrained. The door was opened and Dr. Cronin stepped inside. The man who drove him there did not go inside. He turned round from the foot of the steps, jumped into the buggy, and drove aw^y as fast as the horse could take him. Nl IN!

SUFFERINGS OF THE StTHVi- YOKS Of A WRECK. Tkey .I'M* Famine In an Open Boat fkr Many Days, One of Their Number Going Insane and Suiciding from the Terrible Strain--A Pitiful Tale of Woe. The seven survivors of th* qteamer Earn moor, which foundered at sea when 300 miles off Turk's Island, have arrived In Philadelphia, and tell a story of terrible suffering. The Earn- moor struck a terrible gale Bept. 4, which increased in force, and at 11 :»t) a. m. the following day the vessel gave a lurch and foundered. As the steamer sank the por| lifeboat floated off from the ship. The second officer, second and third engineers, four sailors, three firemen, and the 000k clung to the boat and scrambled in. An effort was made to save the rest of the crew, and a drag was made of the painter, but the boat was blown away and the oars wrested from the hands of the men so that no more could be saved. The .cries of the drowning men, as they were dashed about by the mountainous waves, could be heard by the men in the boat. The boat drifted into the gulf stream and the air was warm; but this increased the intensity otttheir thirst. "The horrors of hunger on the second day became awful," said Carl Crai one of the survivors, "and it increased as time wore on. We manatred to pick up sea-weed, which gave us a little nutriment and on the third day a flying-fish was caught. This was immediately cut up into a portion for each man and devoured. We also captured" a sea-bat and sucked its blood, and then ato the t'esh after it had dried in the sun. The first man to die was a seaman named William Robinson and the second w*s the tl.ird engineer, Thomas Hunt One night while we were all asleep, except a German fire­ man named Fiagge, who was oil watch, he suddenly became insana and jumped overboard. We were too weak to s&Ve him. We were without a compass, and steered by the sun by day and by the stars by night. F'even vessels passefl us. One, a British bark, we were certain saw us, and deliberately left us to-our fate When 300 miles off Hatter as we were picked up by a schooner. I can not describe in words our joy at the sight of this deliverance. We were so weak that we had to be lifted upon the vessel's d«ck, and one of our • men, Ed Johnson, a Norwegian, fell overboard and was drowned." ; C tHB PAlf-AMEBICAN DE1EGATZ8 IX CHICAGO. TEllHITORI AL_ PUOG RK8S. .The Governors of Arizona and Wyoming Submit Tlieir Annual Iteyort*. Gov. Wofley of Arizona has transmitted his annual report to Secretary Noble. It estimates the total population at 6"!),443, and at the last election it states 11,538 votes were cast The Governor notes the falling off in mining and an increase in agricultural pursuits all over the Territory. He at­ tacks the Mormon element, and says mor­ ally and politically they are unwelcome and dangerous, and their teachings and practices are against all established Chris­ tian law. He charges them with seudiug colonies into adjacent Territories in order to hold the balance of political power be­ tween the two parties, and thus perpetuate their creed. In 1884 he says they voted for a Republican delegate in Congress, but in 188(5 and hi 1888 they supported the Democratic candidate. The taxable property in the Territory is placed at about. $30,000,000, an increase of §3,000,000 in the last yeai*. The total ter­ ritorial debt is $752,000. Tho report recommends the Issuing of fifty-year territorial bonda During the year over 5C0.000 acres of land were set­ tled upon. The lack of railroad facilities proves a great trouble to the advance of the Territory. In tho Salt river valley hay worth per ton, bailed, 100 miles a way brings from $20 to $t0 per ton, owing to the lack of transportation facilities. In Ph e- nix lumber is worth $45 to $60 per thous­ and, while less than 200 miles away it can be purchased for $12 to $1R a thousand All told there are only 1,096 miles of rail­ road in the territory. The anDual report 6f Gov. Warren of Wyoming, received at the Interior Depart- ment, snows that the Territory covers near­ ly l0j)„000 square miles, or about as large an area: as New England and Indiana com­ bined.

Louis dispatch says: B. M. Chambers shot and instantly killed Frank J. Bowman at Ferguson, Mo. Both are wel 1 known in St. Louis. Bowman was an attorney here for several years, and made anything but a favorable reputation. The killing grew out of the trouble between the parties over the old Times newspaper. Chambers was a large stockholder and principal owner of the paper up to the time of its demise. Bow­ man was also interested in it. He bought among other things the press franchise of the paper, and has been in litigation over the matter with Chambers ever since. At the time of the tragedy, Frank J. Bowman, accompanied by Deputy Sheriff Garrett, called at Mr. Chambers' house in Ferguson. His purpose was to levy an at­ tachment on Chambers' life interest in liis wife's estate, or w hatever other property he might be able to find. Bowman said: '•I have come to levy on your property." "All right," said Mr. Chambers and he entered the house. In a few^moments .ha Btepped out into the yard again, and he then had a double-barreled ehot-gun in his bands "Garrett, you get out of this place and get out quick," he said to the deputy sheriff. Garrett walked away. Then Mr. Chambers turned to Bowman and said: "Now, Bowman, I'll give you three min­ utes to get out of these grounds." Bowman did not n;ove. In an Instant Chambers raised the gun and poured the lead into Bowman's heart. The men were standing close together, and the full load took effect in Bowman's chest He fell dead in the yard. Bowman never spoke, and died instantly. Mr. Chambers walked into the house and quietly remained there awaiting arrest. He seamed very cool and collected after the killing, and did not appear to think he .had done anything but what he had a right to do. Bowman wa» one of the best known men in St\ Louis, although his reputation wsis ytfry uWavory. He practiced law for manj^ yeapriiere, but removed about three years tegoJ,o New York. Previous to his going Ife figured in a couple of very shameful scandals. He sued his wife for divorce and afterward compromised the suit on her cross bill, paying her a large sum of money. Shortly after it was given out that he had married a woman in the East. As soon as this becam^known, a Chicago woman, who claimea a common law marriage wit'.i Bowman, sued him for divorce in Chicago. He fought the case hard, but the courts decided the Chicago woman was his wife and gave her the divorce. This left Bow­ man very much mixed up matrimonially. Bowman was at one time- prominent at the local-bar, but he was disbarred sev­ eral years ago for crooked practices and since then he has largely forfeited the esteem of respectable persons. Chambers and Bowman have been at daggers' ends for years. Chambers was formerly president of the Butchers' and Drovers' bank, of this city, but became a bankrupt twelve years ago. He has sipce enjoyed a big income from his wife's es­ tate. The levy was on a judgment twelve years old. ABNER TAYLOR MARRIED. Tlie Illinois Congressman Elopes with Col. A. C. Habcock's Daughter. Chicago dispatch: The friends of Con­ gressman Taylor of the First district may be surprised somewhat at the intelligence, now made public for the first time, that the statesman has taken unto himself a wife, and furthermore that there is an interesting story thereunto belonging. In fact, Mr. Taylor's wedding has all the elements of romance--love, unrelenting opposition by the stern mdie parent, clan­ destine oooings, flight, secret vows plight­ ed lie fore an unk nown and cloaked priest, and at last reconciliation with the afore­ said parent The lady in the case is the daughter of CoL A. C. Behcock, well-known as a poli­ tician in this city and at present a promi­ nent candidate for the United States mar- shalship for the district of northern Illi­ nois. Mr. Taylor has for A long time been assiduous in his suit^for the baud of Miss Babcock, but bis attentions were unhap­ pily frowned down by the Qolonel. But Cupid's arrows were never known to shiver on paternal anger and Col. Bab­ cock one morning awoke to receive the tidings that the congressman and his daughter were wedded in a little town in Michigan on the '(th'of September last and that now it was all too late. Bride and bridegroom enjoyed tho honeymoon in obscure felicity until quite recently, when they returned to Chicago. Here they •pent a few days, and thou left Chicago to reside at Washington. Aa Kiaborate Flan «T Sl(rht-Seeing, Lact- Three Days--South Americans at the Stock Yards--A Reception at X'otter Palmer's--Other Enjoyable Features oi the Visit. The delegates composing the Pan- American Congress, now touring throilgh the West, on arriving at Chicago were informally received by the Mayor, The next day being Sunday, the Armour Mis­ sion Sunday School was visited, the dele­ gates afterwards inspecting the Kinder­ garten rooms and the flats connected therewith. The second day of the visit of the delegates was spent in sight seeing. Taking a special train at 10 o'clock in the morning the visitors, accompanied by the local reception committee, paid a visit to the McCormick reaper works, where a hurried visit was paid to the principal departments. As the visitors departed from the manufacturing establishment tho various machines were exhibited in opor­ tion. Swift's packing bouse, next visited, was decorated with flags and bunting. The first sight of the butchering process was not a welcome one to several of tho visit­ ors, among them two members of the Argentine Republic delegation, who had to retire. All parts of the business were shown. From the butchering: rooms the party was taken to the cutting depart­ ment The same program was observed at Libby, McNeill & Libby's, adjoining, and at the packing house of Nelson Morris. At 12 o'clock the strangers reached Armour's. The pig massacre was hugely enjoyed by most of the delegates, though a few were seasick. Dr. Guzman of Nicaragua said the work "war too exten­ sive and raciu to realise its greatness in so short a time. Noon whistles were tooting wndn the party left Amour's place for Pullman. Lunch was served on the train. Upon arrival at the village, George M. Pnllmfth, George H. Brown, Stephen Little, G. H. Gray, H. H. Session, J. S. Funnels and Dr. O'Clmsey greeted the guests. The car depot, carpenter shops, big Corliss engine, blacksmith shops, water tower and freight shops were all looked at and favor­ ably eeriimented upon. Then a special train pulled the visitors around the town, allowing them to see the gas works, pavil- lion and lake front The street car shops were examined next. Then in turn the hotel, library and theater. At the latter place, Mr. Runnels introduced Duane Doty; who spoke to the assembly. Adjourning from the theater the party rode to South Park station, where they entered carriages and were driven to Jack­ son park, then to Washington park. Pass­ ing sue essively through Drexel, Oakland, and Grand boulevards they rode down Michigan avenue to Adams street and then to.tho postofflce. The delegates dined at W o'clo k aud in the evening^ attended a reception at Potter Palmer's, where they met the most socially prominent people of the city. From Chicago, the members of the Pan- American Congress left by the Chicago, Milwaukee and St Paul railroad for Mil­ waukee. Very few people/had congregated at the Jackson street entrances, where the party bade adieu to the structure which had been the scene of so many happy events for the delegates. They drove rapidly to the depot, where the special train that had carried them so many miles was in waiting to take them to Milwaukee. At 8 o'clock the train pulled out. Crowds met the delegates upon their arrival and crowds bade tbem adieu as they departed for the Cream city. When the Pan-American delegates left Milwaukee their route included Sioux City, Omaha, St. Paul, Kansas City, St Louis, Springfield, Cincinnati, Cleveland and Washington. # The party comprises some forty as dele­ gates, alternates and other representa­ tives, besides newspaper correspondents.

The Appointment Somewhat ef a Serprise: --Gen. RanmVBecord--Annual B*yort of the Commissioner of "in«inn» Wanom neadattans Regarding the Peutoa Laws {.Washington telegram.] The President has appointed Gen. Green B.' Raum of Illinois as commissioner of pen­ sions, and be has assumed the duties of his position. This action was a surprise^ as Gen. Raum's name had not been promin­ ently mentioned in connection with the of­ fice. Green Perry Raum is a fiative of Illi­ nois and one of the best known politicians in that State. He was bora Golconda, Pope county, Dec. 3, 1829. After re­ ceiving a common-school education he studied law, and was admitted to the bar in Three years later he went to Kan­ sas and affiliated with the free-soil party. Th|s made him obnoxious to the pro- slavery faction and he returned to Illinois^ settling at Harrisburg. At the beginning of the rebellion he made many "war" speeches, and subse­ quently entered the army. He rose to the rank of Brigadier-General and took part in many important engagements, partic­ ularly distinguishing himself in the battle of Corinth and the ^Atlanta campaign. At Missionary Ridge he was wounded, but immediately upon recovering tesumed active service in the field. At the close of the war he went into the railroad business for a brief period. In 18(J'> he was elected to Congress and served from March, 1867, to March, 186t>. In 1876 he was prosident of the Illinois Re­ publican convention, and in the same year was a delegate to the national convention of that party in Cincinnati. He was ap­ pointed commissioner of internal revenue Aug. 2, 1876. and retained that office until May 31, 1883. Durjng that period he col­ lected f 85o,000,00'» and disbursed $ i0,090.- 000 without loss. | Since 1^83 Gen. Raum has been practic­ ing law in Washington. He is the author of a work entitled "The Existing Conflict Between the Republican Government and the Southern Oligarchy." The annual report for the fiscal year 1888-89 of the commissioner of pensions has been submitted to the secretary of tha interior and is now in the hands of the public printer. Following is a summary of the main features of the report: There were at the close of the year 489,-' 729 pensioners. There were added to th« rolls during the year the names of 51,921 new pensioners, and the names of 1,7-H whose pensions had been previously dropped were restored to the rolls, making an aggregate of 53,675 pensioners added during the year; 16,507 pensioners were dropped from the rolls for various causes, leaving a net increase to the rolls of 37,18S names. The average anuual value of each pension at the close of the year is shown to have been $131. The aggregate annual value of pensions is $64, l in,652. The amount paid for pensions during the year was $88,275,118. The totai amount dis­ bursed by the agents for all purposes was $89,131,y ii8. In the aggregate 1,248.148 pension claims have been filed since 1861 and in the same period 789,121 have been allowed. , Commissioner Tanner recommends the establishment of two additional pension agencies, to relieve the overworked offices at Columbus, Chicago, Indianapolis, and Topeka, Kan. He recommends that Con­ gress be asked to amend the act of June 6, ]874, so as to extend the benefit of ail pen­ sion laws as to rates to all pensioners whose pensions have been granted by special acts passed subsequent to said data, and that the benefit of pension be granted to the widows of soldiers who died from causes originating in the service prior to March 4, 1861, during the time of peace. He further recommends, as did his prede­ cessor, that the act of March 8, 1S77, be amended so as to grant pension to those who, bavins participated in the rebellion .against the United States, subsequeutly enlisted in the navy and were disabled therein. ""he injustice and unfairness of the act of Congress approved June 16, 18.w0, the report says should be corrected. This act limits the right of pensioners to receive $72 per month to those who were receiving $50 per month at the date of said act No provision is made therein for granting said rate to those who were totally help­ less on said date, but were not receiving $50 at said time, and none for those who have become totally helpless since that datS. The anomaly is "presented of two men equally disabled, possibly living side by side, the one receiving $73 per month and the other ijoO per mjiitlf. The commissioner asks attention to the fact that the act of Aug. 7, 18S2, which terminates the pension of a widow on ac- count of immorality, makes no provision for continuing the pension to the , minor children of the soldier when the widow's pension is terminated. He asks that Congress be requested to correct this palpable injustice. The Commissioner earnestly recom­ mends that whenever an invalid pensioner dies the usual pension be granted to his widow, or, if he leaves no widow, then to his minor children, without regard to whether or not his death was due to any ca rse incident to the service and line of duty. The commissioner favors granting pen­ sions to all soldiers who are disabled. He. says: "As the war period recedes from us and age and its attendant infirmities afflict the veteran who served his country faithfully and well a quarter of a century ago, it is a very serious question whether the government doas him justice in limit­ ing the application of the pension laws to those disabilities only whibh were contract­ ed in the service and line of duty. I ear­ nestly recommend that a pension be granted to every honorably discharged soldier and sailor who is now or may here­ after become disabled, without regard td j whether such disability is chargeable to the service of the United States or has 1 been contracted since discharge there­ from." The commissioner also favors a pension for army nurses und makes an earnest appeal on their behalf. The Department of State is offici­ ally informed that a lawhas been en­ acted by Chili to take effect four months from Aug. 30, 1889, abolishing import duties on machines and tools for the use of agriculture, mining, trading, and industries; pipes or tubes composed of copper, bronze, or iron, galvanized or up- galvanized; knees, joints, "T's,"and other such necessary articles: iron or steel wire, FIGHT FOR APARSONA® Several Persons Hurt in a Polish Church Riot at Plymouth, Pa. Three months ago Bishop O'Hara of Scranton deposed the Rev. Father Warne- gari, tlie pastor of tho Polish Catholic church at Plymouth, Pa., and aforwards ex­ pelled him from priesthood for unbecom­ ing conduct The congregation was divid­ ed into two factions and one of these ins 8ted upon holding possession of the church and parsonage. Tuesday afternoon Bishop O'Hara appeared in Plymouth for the purpose of obtaining possession of the church and its property. The police were called upon to aid him, and upon admis­ sion to the parsonage being refused the officers battered down the doors and ar­ rested six of the inmutes. A fierce fight ensned while the prisoners were being removed, and in the struggle Chief of Police Melvin had his leg broken,and back injured. A number of other persous were hurt TORTURED BY _BLACK FIENDS. A Horrible Tale of Cri me and Cruelty In Alabama. A special from Lafayette, Ala., records a crime in Tallapoosa county that has rarely been surpassed in its horrible de­ tails. It seems while Albert Smith and his three oldest children had gone some miles to church five negroes asked Mrs. Smith to give them something to eat On being refused they wont into the house, forced Mrs. Smith into the yard, and stole all they could find in the way of valuables. They then set fire to the house . - and added horror to the terrible scene by 1 galvani.ed or ungalvaimed, up to No. 14 forcing the distracted woman to watch j inclusive, and copper wire or insulating them toss, her little baby in tbe air and let composition for transmission of electric t!*"* eport says that the citizens ara anxious for Statehood. The assessed valuation of taxable property is over $33,000,000, and the net indebtedness about $275,000. Over 300,000 land wore settled upon this year. The lack of railroad facilities is the great drawback to the 'territory, there being but HbO miles in all. Cattle raising is the principal industry, with agriculture second. The wages paid mechanics are from 3"» to 50 per cent higher than in the Middle States and the living about 20 per cent higher. UE.saB.-' Intpccim-s KnttfkfMl Ont of Their .Tobe.

Assistant' Secretary of the Treasury Batchellor in talking of the Chilian gov­ ernment's action said: "It is a most friendly act It opens a fine market for products and if we are prompt to avail ourselves of the opportunity it will be one of. immense value to us. Of course there is some selfiish motive in all these things, and Chili's motive #is to en­ courage progress and development, but I have no doubt she was inspired also by a friendly feeling toward us. We need such a market and sho Id avail ourselves of it. But if we have 110 means of trans-, portation all the concessions that may be made to us such as this of Chili are of no- avail.
