FATAL FREAK OF A DOCTOR

He ChiorOforms His Children and Him
SELF During His Wife's Absence.
SPRINGFIELD, O., Nov. 27.-Dr. John
Maxwell, yesterday afternoon, after send
ing his wife to town to shop, administered
to his four children, aged to u years,
a mixture Of aconite and chlorofOrm. He
then placed cloths saturated with chloro-
form over their faces, and placed them on
the bed. He administered a similar dose
to himself and lay down to die with them.
When Mrs. Maxwell returned the Oldest
girl was dead and the others We're I'M
conscious. Assistance was summoned
and every effort was made to revive them,
but during the night two more of the
children died. Maxwell revived some
what and was placed in jail.
He refused to talk. He had written let
ters saving that he was tired of life, and
wanted the children TO 90 with him to
avoid suffering. He had recently been
indicted for libeling another physician,
and this, together with business embar-
easements, is supposed to have incensed
him to the act.
Nothing new has been developed
in the Maxwell tragedy to-day.
The prisoner is in jail, but will
say nothing to any one. He is
trying to play the crazy act, and is play
ing his part well. His oldest boy died at
II: 80 making three deaths. The Oldest
girl will recover. The mother is crazed
with grief, and it is feared that after the
reaction sets in from the excitement she
will die from the shock.

TAXES AND FREE PASSES.

ING TWO CONUNDRUNIS.

Bismarck Conducting a Campaign
Against the Acceptance of Railway
FavOrs by Members of the Reiohstag-
The Financial Statement Showing a
Considerable Falling on in the
Revenues.
BERLIN, Nov. 27.-In his speech. yes
terday, in opposition to the resolution to
pay salaries to members of the Reichstag.
Prince Bismarck charged the members
with using free passes on the railways TO
enable them to travel all over the Empire,
and he, therefore, advocated the revokinq
of the free list.
Speeches were made by members of the
Reichstag in opposition to Prince Bis
marck, in which they declared that the
government was seeking to preventive
attendance of the poorer Socialist men,
bers of the Reichstag. If they were re-
fused their travelling expenses they con-
tended that they must be paid salary to
enable members to live in such an expen-
sive city as Berlin.
POOR FINANCIkLfsHowiNG.
In the Reichstag to-day, the budget for
1880 was discussed. Herr Burchard. Sec
retary of the Treasury, in submitting the
estimates, admitted that the financial ex-
hlbit was not satisfactory. The revenue
from several sources had dwindled unex
pectedly, notably from beet sugar. the de-
crease amounting to 1000, 900 marks.
He said that it was impossible to expect
any increase of revenue from the sugar
industry at present. The revenue from
tobacco had also dwindled 1900, 900 marks
during the year. He said that if the pen
sion law and ocean steamer subventIon
bill passed the Reichstag, additional
financial burdens upon the budget would
probably ensue, which must be faced, es-
pecially as the financial position of the
country is satisfactory.
THE GOVERNMENTS PLANS UNKNOWN.
Herr Burchard was unable to saw
whether the government was prepared to
introduce any fresh taxation bills since
the Reichstag had rejected so many for
mer proposals. AS, however, a reduction
of the estimate was scarcely possible, it
behooved the House to devote itself earn
estly to reform of taxation.
Herr SchOlz said that as the govern
ment proposals were invariably rejected
it was the duty of the Reichstag to de-
clare what taxation is OppOrtune. The
situation, Herr Scholz said, does not in
volve too formidable demands upon the
taxpayers.
Herr Richter, in behalf of the new Ger
man Liberals, objected to all fresh taxa
ton upon the people.
Herr Binda, in behalf of the National Lib
erals, refused to initiate any new imports,
and stated that they would only vote in
favor of the actual requirements.
The debate was adjourned until to-mor-
row.

THERE are three ways of destroying the
phylloxera, but, according to NJ. Balbiani,
Professor of the College of France, not one of
them can be relied upon as thoroughly effica-
clOu'. The first method, which has long been
practiced by the vine growers of the depart
ment of the Gironde. consists in peeling the
vines by means of rubbing it with the hands,
protected by special gloves of steel chains.
But as only the older vines permit of such
treatment, it cannot be universally applied
Watering with boiling water is effective. but
it Is nowhere practiced with regularity. A
wash Of coal tar and oil, applied to the vines,
has shown good results, but as the coal tar is
apt to stitfen when exposed to cold, and has to
be warmed every time before its application,
this remedy has been abandoned as too te-
dious. NJ Balbiani recommends a wash of
raw naphthaline, unburnt lime, and water,
which has been used on a large scale in the
departments of Lot-et- Garonne and Loir-et-
Cher with encouraging results. The expense
is 40 francs for 5000 vines, which no vine
grower would grudge If by it he would be en-
abled successfully to combat the greatest enc
my of the vineyard.

the United States, particularly under the
administration of President Diaz, who
will protect with firm hand their lives
and property, and that, besides, reVOlu-
tions are no longer possible in the neigh
boring republic, not only on account of
the good sense of the people, but also by
reason of the facilities now enjoyed by the
government to suppress at its birth any
