How We Support Spanish sayagery
in Cuba
A dispatch saws a gentleman Just return
ed from Cuba, where be has resided the
past nine months, states he does not be-
lieve the Spaniards can held out much
longer, for their finances are sadly deranged.
II It was iiot for the Tact that The people Of
the / niied States are made to contribute
the largest proportion OF the ex-
penses Of Spanish :, rule in Cuba,
The war would have been ended long
ago. There are about one hundred mil
lions Of dollars worth of sugar exported an
)nually; about 50 millions Of which comes
to tie United States. A few large houses
in New York and Philadelphia have monop-
olized the sugar trade. These houses adj
vance large sums of money to the sugar
nlanters and their only security is lien on
q e slaves who cultivate the sugar planta-
lions. They have been making these ad-
vances for wears and have come 10 have a
heavy interest directly in slaves and are
therefore real slave holders. If
emancipation was decnec,l they
would be heavy losers. Hence
they are doing all they can TO crush out
the Cuban rebellion, the success of which
insures emancipation Whenever the Cap
tain General makes an extraordinary levy
upon the merchants Of Cuba he does not
assess small and great, but confines his
levy to a few principal houses. These men
Immediately call meeting Of all the prin-
cipal houses engaged in exporting
to the United States, and they add the
amount of the levy TO the next invoices of
sugar, tobacco, etc, shipped TO this
country.

SAN Francisco, July 20.-Reports from

the yield of grain abundant and much larger
than last season. r
San Francisco has donated $4,000 to the
Louisiana sufferers. The last installment
of 81, 900 were forwarded to-day.
The crusaders OF Portland, Oregon, have
abandoned their efforts. No movement is
vet made for local option in the election of
this city and all are waiting the decision of
the Supreme Court, on the cOnstitutiOnality
of the law.
1t is understood that investigations are
being conduced in this city on the part Of
the German bondholders into the financial
system of what is known as the NallgejO
Railroad, and that revelations will be made
in the business which will not rebound TO
the credit Of this State. The friends of
the Central Pacific say that it will attempt
TO clear its skirts by throwing all the blame
on latham and his associates, who trans
ferred the roads 10 that company. s

CHECKERS.
ACurious Confession Of Murder.

ANurAOus OOnAcsSIOu u MurOcE.
TOPEKA, July POI viii be recollected
that last March d. W. Ferris, grocery
keeper here, was mysseriOusly murdered
and buried in the cellar of his store, and
that young lad named Fred Olds was ar
rested on suspicion of having committed
the crime. To-day in the District Court
young Olds submitted confession. He and
Ferris were playing checkers in the
store, when Ferris accused him Of having
moved falsely. This lie denied. High and
angry words passed, and Ferris seizing a
revolver drove Olds out of the store, calling
him thief, liar, etc. OldS went to his IA
theirs house, about one hundred feet dis
tant, etoOk carbine from his room, re-
turned to Ferris store with the Intention
of making him retract what he said.
When Ferris saw him, he again
seized the revolver, and as he raised it TO
fire OlGs shot him in the face. He then
dragged him TO the cellar, and finding he
was not yet dead, finished him with large
cheese knife. While burying the body he
heard his father calling him. He went
home and assisted his father in putting 4
horse in the stable. He then returned and
finished buryiHg Ferris. Next morning he
opened the store, and told his parents that
thai he was going to run the store during
his absence. This continued till Ferris
absence was noticed and his OWE conduct
aroused suspicion. Something was wrong,
and examination revealed the dead body of
Ferris in the cellar. Olds will probably
be sentenced to the penitentiary for life.

PHILADELPHIA.
An Internal machine


PHILADELPHIA, July 20.-Ou Saturday
information was received by the detective
force that Mrs. Chas. .. Herring received
an internal machine containing three
pounds of powder. A note accompanied
the box stating it contained some newly
patented articles. The circumstances being
deemed suspicious, the box was carefully
opened without accident, the entire family
standing around at the time. The box
which was one foot long and eight inches
wide, was filed with powder on top of
which run through holes in strip, were
about nine matches with the heads arranged
to almost touch a slide which was cover
ed with sand paper. If the box had not
been cautiously opened an explosion would
have occurred, iniuring and probably caus-
ing the death of the entire family.
Edward Wagner, a SOn-in-law, was ar
rested to-day on suspicion.
Mr.. Herring is the father-in-law of Shus-
tenchter, who murdered his wife last fall,
and then committed suicide.

The Irish Riaemen.

4 correspondent who had a conversation
with Henry A. Foster, Honorary Secretary
of the Irish Rife Association, writes that
all arrangements for the International rife
mach, at Creedmoor, on the part of the
Irish team had been nearly completed;
that six out of the eight named in the
team We're certain to 90 to Ameri-
ca to compete for the prize, and that
great interest was manifested in the con-
test among the patrons of rife shooting in
Ireland and England, and that the team
were doing the best they could to uphold
the reputation they had already achieved
as expert and clever Iaarksmen; that they
would leave nothing undOne on their part
to win the victory in the United States,
and if they did not gain the laurels, they
would most willingly place them on the
brows of those who best deserved them.
II is not yet certain whether Clancury
will accompany them TO America. His go
inc will complete the representation of the
! nobility, while the other gentlemen make
up the list showing that the gentry of Ire
land as well as the nobility are not uncon-
cerned at the result of the great interna-
tiOnal match.

ST. PAULS.
A wanitoban OmciaI srobbed.

ST. PAUL, Mimi, July 2O.-Ex-Attorney
General Clark, Of Manitoba, was last eve
ming struck twice on the head with a slung
shot in front Of the Metropolitan Hotel by
some unknown person, who escaped. This
morning as Clark was leaving for the East,
he was set upon by crowd of rIItfians
from Minneapolis, aided by Mike Hay,
chief of police of that city, who beat and
kicked Clark savagely, and but for the in
reference of two Of our citizens would
doubtless have killed him. Clark was
taken into the cars and left on the train,
but it is feared is dangerously hurt, being
i'm poor health. Hay was arrested and held
for trial. He is one of the Minneapolis
party who were imprisoned last year at
Winnipeg for an alleged attempt to kidnap
Lord Gardner. and the murderous attack on
Clark is in revenge for his action as public
prosecutor in that affair.

THR COUNTY CANVASS.

In his card of withdrawal from the
county canvass, published IN the UNION
AND AMERICAN of Sunday, Mr. J. F.
Pentecost says concerning the action
of the Black-and-Tan committee, last
Thursday night: ''The committee then
proceeded to make up a ticket under
the resolution adopted the Tuesday
night before. The ticket has already
been published. y
This ticket is as follows:
MN. Brien, Jr., for Chancellor.
William Davis, for County Court
Clerk.
Prince Ewing, colored, for Criminal
Court Clerk.
JB. Jeup, for County Register.
Coon Bosley, colored, for Sheriff.
Chris. Powers, for County Trustee.
William Austin, for Revenue Col
lector.
Ben Hadley, colored, for Jailer.
We believe the only person named
above who does not claim to be an out
and-out Radical is NJ. NJ. Brien, Jr.
Taking it for granted that, according
70 the statements made in his card, MIR.
Pentecost was familiar with the plans
Of the Blaek-and- Tan managers, will
Mr.. Brien be kind enough to explain
how his name came to be placed at the
head of the ticket: Was 1t done with
his knowledge and consent, or does he
repudiate the action of Parson Dill
lin and committee? Any frank,
Straightforward, unequiTOeaI declara-
ton on this point viii be cheerfully
awarded space in the UNION AND
AMERICAN.
1t will be noticed that no nOmina-
ton was made for the Office of Circuit
Court Clerk, and we hear of no Radi-
cal having been mentioned for that po-
sition. There is a mystery about this
omission that we viii have 10 look into.
Major Albert Akers, the only oppo-
nent of the regular nominee,
is an ex-Confeaerate soldier of
gallant record and about
one of the last men whom we would
suspect Of bringing himself down to
the level of the negro for a few hun
dred votes. No Office, however lucra-
tive, could compensate him for the loss
of caste that would inevitably result
from such a course. He viii gef some
support from the Confederate .ele-
aent, bat the great majority of his old
comrades ia arms are firm for the Dem
ocratic ticket; 30 we Ere nj q loss TO i'm
agine upon what sort of strength he
bases his hope of reelection.
The nomination Of the negro Hadley
was a me-e dodge to scare Robertson
ont of the race. But Robertson did
not scare worth d cent, and strong ef-
forts are now being s4a-ie to buy HIM
off. The intelligent ccIorel 2len seem
determined that at least three % tAelr

pots. land, as for the UNION AND

of the white men of Davidson county
IN saying that. if Hugh Heverin is to

hun beaten by decent negro.

WHAT CHICAGO LOST By HER
SECOND GREAT FIRE

The best index of the amount OfprODerty
destroyed by the fire last night is the insur-
ance. There are 40 IRE insurance COM
panies doing business in Chicago. The re-
ports of these 40 companies show that the
aggregate of risks they had in force on the
property destroyed was S2,T2T,299. The
amount Of insured property saved was S4S2,-
800, thus making the total net loss to the
insurance comDanies 2,244,970. Some Of
the most experienced insurance agents say
that % per cent. is a fair estimate of the
ratio of insurance in force TO the value Of
property destroyed in the burnt district.
Others estimate that the whole OF the
property was, On the average, insured to
- per cent. Of its value, and a few say
80 per cent. Even if we take the
highest estimate of the ratio Of
insurance to the value Of property destroyed,
it would sbew that the loss OF property
must have been s6,OO0,OG0. The losses OF
the companies have, if correctly reported,
been very light compared to their business
and capital No great fire has occurred of
late years, in which the losses were so well
distributed, and fell 50 lightly on the in
suranee companies. This augus well for
the prompt payment OF the entire insur-
ance loss without the failure Of any of It's
companies. The fire was not in 2 paE5 OF
the city where it will cs,.ss any failures
among merchants, nut some large property
owners will be seriously embarrassed by
loss of rents, and some of the property
burnt over by last nights fire is toe heavily
mOrtgaged already to he made security fOr
further loans 20 Te-eFees the buildings. A
good deal Of it will therefore fall tOthe mort
among class Of men not in active mer-
camille business.

A Victim of ChioroEOrm.

LOUISVILLE, July 20.-In Marysyille,
Ky, Saturday morning, Miss Julia Kerns,
an adopted daughter Of A. B. Cochran,
was found dead in her bed with bottle of
chlotoforla lying ON her breast, She had
been suffering from severe headache, and it
is supposed she took chlorofOrm to alleviate
the pain and was supplied beyond power to
remove the bottle. A young lady who was
sleeping with her was so much overcome
BY the fumes that Il was difficult TO arouse
her. Miss Kerns was a beautiful girl Of
seventeen years old.
