Probably Suicide.
Special to the Globe.

6peclal 10 Ine OIOOe.
CHICAGO, Nov. 2O.-A portion of the
mystery surrounding the death of the
woman who was taken from the lake at the
foot of Oak street last night was cleared up
this morning when the body was identified
by T. W. Bipper as that of his wife. Mr..
Bipper lives and conducts meat shop on
State street. An inquest was begun this
morning, at which he testified that Mrs.
Bipper left home at z p. IN. for
the purpose of going to the fat-stOck show.
AS she had not returned at midnight he
made every effort to find her, but discov-
cred no trace of her whereabouts or move
ments until he recognized the description
given of her in the morning papers. Mr..
Bipper stated that he had always
lived happily with his wife. Since the birth
of the youngest child, about six months
ago, she had been at times nervous
and Respondent. The friends and re-
lations of Mrs. Bipper, however, do not
think that there is any reason to believe that
the lady met her death through foul play
Mr. BippeI himself is completely Frustrated
by the blow that has so suddenly befallen
him. There are three little children. the
eldest OF whom is but 10 years of age. while
the youngest is a babe of months. The
deceased was most atfectionate wife and
mother, whose heart seemed to be wrapped
up in her family, and she had every com
fort at home that money could buy.

Cadets and the Training ships.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 20.-Capt. Ramsey,
superintendent of the naval academy, in
his annual report to the secretary of the
navy recommends that permits for admis-
sion as cadets be issued one year prior to
the time fixed for examination, and renews
the recommendation that all candidates for
admission be required to report for exam
ination on the 18th of May. The number
of cadets to go on the next practice cruise
renders it necessary that ship to take the
place Of the Dale shall be fitted out for a
practice ship and sent to Annapolis by May.
1t will, says Capt. Ramsey, be impossible
to do justice to the cadets and give them the
required instructions with only one practice
ship. He recommends that selection for
the line engineer corps and marine corps
be made at the end of the four years cruise,
instead of the six years cruise.

The Nicaraugan Canal,

Special to the Globe.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 20.-It is believed
that there will be another effort at the COM
ing session in behalf of the Nicaraugan
canal project. Everything points to it.
The giving to the public of Engineer Memo
Gales latest report on that subject, the
mysterious silence of the state department
and the constant attacks being made upon
the Panama canal, show that there is life
yet in the Nicaraugan scheme. A member
Of the company claiming to have the right
of way in the Nicaraugan canal was here a
few days ago, and said to your correspond
ent, in answer to question on this sub
ject, that he believed the state department
had made another treaty with the Nicarau-
gan government by which the United States
would have some canal privileges, and that
such treaty would be sent to congress for
it's ratification during the coming session.

Carlisle ON Changing the Rules.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 20.-Speaker Car
Isle said to Republican reporter tonight,
J in speaking of the plan proposed by Mr.
Springer to change the rules of the house,
that the plan did not originate with MI
Springer.
Ever since the Forty-Sixth congress" he
said. there has been dissatisfaction at the
present rules and this movement is the re-
suit OF that dissatisfaction. From what
hear, and the strong advocacy the plan seems
to have, I think it is probable that the rules
will be changed"
He said the plan to distribute appropria-
tions freer amongst the committees is not
an attack on Mr.. Randall any more than
any one else, as the same dissatisfaction
was manifest when Mr.. Hiscock and Mr..
Atkins were at the head of the approprla-
tions committee.
st is not the desire,'' he said. ito take
away any Of Mr.. Randall S power, and don
| think there was ever such a feeling. The
complaint is that the handling OF all the ap'
preparation bills is too much work for the
appropriations committee and change
would, Of course, facilitate Legislation"
Mr.. Carlisle said he favored the distribu-
ton of the bills to the proper committees.
excepting the sundry, civil, legislative and
general deficiency bills, as these really be-
| long to no other committee. He said he
believed the proposed revision would work

were both found dead. Somerheld ran
down the street toward the navy yard. A
citizen undertook to stop him. when he at
tempted to kill him also. An officer then
appeared and took him into custody. He
made no explanation, excepting to say in
broken English that his wife had left him
and gone to live at Eisenbaum's, and that
she had cheated him out of all his money.

NORTH ADAMS, Mass, Nov. 20.-About
1880 last night quantity of some power
full explosive was placed about twenty feet
from the dwelling on Prospect street owned
by Bernard Boland and occupied by Morris

twelve pounds of Miners friend" very
powerful explosive, and forty feet of fuse

Between wilson and Lannan.

One of the largest crowds that was ever
inside the Olympic theater was that of last
evening, which went to see the four-rOund
sparring match between Billy Wilson of the
Wilson-Card fight and Joe Lannan of the
Lannan-Killen fight two weeks ago. Pat
Conley was all smiles, possibly from the
fatneSs of the finances, and before the show
was over had his manager, Ed Hilton, an
nounce contest to take place there this
evening between Barnes and Hadley for a
gold medal to be presented by C0nley.
After the usual performance had ended,
Ed Hilton. who acted as master of cere-
monies, introduced Billy Wilson, whose ap-
pearance was received with applause. He
was stripped, and although almost model
in build it could be seen he was
in no condition to do any heavy sparring,
especially if it was to be of long duration.
Lannan, who next made his appearance,
was in better form, only having gone out of
training recently. All expected to see Will
son do about as he pleased with Lannan,
but in this respect they were disappointed.
Lannan showed the same inclination to face
matters as he did in his fight with Killen.
There appeared, however, to be an under
standing between them, and when either
would get in lick the other would close
up and then clawing match, which could
do no damage, would begin. Wilson is a
very clever dodger, and quite often fooled
Lannan, whose fist would go completely
over him. In the last round Lannan had
the advantage, as Wilson was completely
tagged and all the former had to do was to
throw out his knockers, which would find a
resting place each time. The sparring
match altogether was hardly what was ex-
pected it would be.
The sparring match tonight will most
probably be more Of slugging match for
gore.

Hanged a Murderer.

THoMAsToN, Me-, Nov. 2O.-At 11:45
o'clock Wilkinson, escorted by the deputy
sheriffs and Rev. f. N. Tower, his spiritual
adviser, issued fro n the western door of the
prison and marched to the scaffold. He
walked with firm step and stood upon the
drop without tremor. AS the moose was
being adjusted he said to the sheriff: you
fellows get $50 day for such work." He
had nothing further to say, but listened at
tentively to the service for the dying. At
just 12 o'clock the trap was sprung and he
fell distance of seven feet, dying without
a struggle.
The crime for which Wilkinson was hanged
was committed on Sept. 8, 1883. when he shot
and killed Officer William Lawrence while re-
sisting arrest for burglary.

P1TTsBURG, Pa, Nov. 2o.-Secretary
Flannery of the Miners association issued
a circular to-day to the railroad miners in
reference to loading cars and filling con-
tracts for the Hooking Valley coal opera
tors. He requests the miners of the rail-

tracts and thus be instrumental in defeating
the strike of the men in that section. In
one place on the Panhandle men have
struck because they were asked to fill cars
for the Ohio operators.

I am ready to meet Sands at any time

no friends in the city and never stated that
