RESURRECTION IN SPAIN.
Revolt OF Two Regiments OF the span-
ish Army at Madrid.

MADRID, Sept. H.-sunday night an infan-
try regiment revolted and were joined by
cavalry regiment and despite the efforts Of the
officers, they decamped. They paraded the
streets shouting 'long live the republic"
There was great excitement,and almost pan
ic IN some instances. The insurgents seized
the docks and other barracks also the South
ern railway station. They were finally re-
pulsed by loyallst troops, most Of them escap-
ing to the country. During the outbreak the
rebels shot Gen. Velarde and MORALLY wound
ed Count Merosal. A colonel Of the artillery
was also killed. Martial law has been pro-
claimed and efforts made to prevent repeti-
ton Of the outbreak, which was complete
surprise TO the people Of Madrid. Quiet relgns
now, but the confidence OF the citizens in the
stability Of the monarchy Is evidently shaken
There is great excitement throughout the city.
Forty of the insurgents reached Alcola, seized
the station and compelled the agent to start
special to assist In their escape. A train load
Of government troops Is In pursuit.

not Driven Out.

To those who have persistently asserted for
years that silver coinage would soon result in
driving gold out of the country, the following
facts may prove interesting reading: The
production of gold in 1885 in the United
States is estimated at S31, 800 600 by the Direc-
tor Of the Mint, being an increase OF 81 900 900
over the estimate Of 1884. The production Of
silver for the calendar year 1885, calculated at
the coming rate In silver dollars, is estimated
at $5l, 100000, against siS,S00,000 in 1884, an
increase of 81, S00, 900. Colorado still retains
the foremost rank as the largest pro-
ducer Of the precious metals, California re-
tanning second position. The most notable
changes have been in Montana and Idaho, the
production of the former having increased
from 50, 600 900 in 1884 to nearly Sl3 500 600 in
1885, and the latter from $3.50, 600 in 1884 to
e, 900 in 1885. The total value of the
bullion and coin imported into the United
States during the calendar year was 81, 4lS,-
100, of which s., 81, 900 consisted of bullion
and S533, 095, 100 OF coin. OF the total i'm
ports, 1913, 645, 81 consisted OF gold, and Sl7,-

and silver from the United States during the

STORM AT JOLIET.
From Fifteen to Twenty Houses
Wrecked, but Nobody Killed.

JOLIET, ILL.,, Sept. Gothic scene OF Satur-
day nights rcyclone in this city was Wis.
tied yesterday by fully 10000 people. 1t is a
remarkable fact that although Is or 20 houses
were completely demolished and scattered by
the terrific wind, yet not a single person was
fatally hurt. Everybody seemed to be aware
of the approach of the cyclone some minutes
before it struck the city aud secured their
safety by fleeing to their cellars. The cyclone
came from the southwest straight up Des
Plains river. The constant flashes of lightning
lit up the sky SO that the funnel shaped mon
ster could be plainly seen as 1t came whTling
toward the city with roar like 100 locomotives
blowing off steam. As it reached the city
limits it turned east on Monroe street, demol-
ishing houses, barns and out-houses The air
was filed with boards, limbs Of trees, sections
of roofs and pieces OF heavy timber. The
bridge on Monroe street was picked up bodily
and deposited almost intact two blocks away.
A heavy grindstone belonging to Mr.. Rutner
was blown $50 feet. The residences Of the
Sehllm brothers, John Day, Hold Brown, Jerry
Buckley, Patrick DAILY, Peter DAILY, William
Barrett John Maher and William Kinds were
scattered to the winds. Pieces of some OF
these houses were carried quarter Of a mile.
A large number of houses were more or less
moved from their foundations and wrenched
out of shape. The house OF Peter DAILY, on
Chicago street, was turned upside down. The
roof now rests on the ground and the front
door high up in the air. Telegraph poles were
twisted off like pipestems, the streets being
blockaded with a mass of tangled wires
Along Fourth avenue great holes were scooped
out of the hard gravel road. Eye witnesses
state that these holes were made by balls Of
electricity or fire, which bounded along the
ground. The horse and buggy Of Deputy
Sheriff Ward was hitched in front of his house
when the cyclone came, and when it had
passed the horse and buggy had disappeared.
no trace has yet been found. The damage
to the property in the city is estimated at $75,.
600.

Democratic Practice.

From tho Burlington Hawkeye.
Although IL will surprise nobody else,
IL may DO matter OF interest to tho
President to know how his orders to
Office holders are obcyed. Since we have
Democratic administration the organs
OF that administration are trying their
very best to let tho country know that
wc are having purcr politics, as far as tho
Democrats are concerned, that official
Interference Is no more exercised in the
workings Of the political machine. and
that In fact the new era has been most
auspiciously begun. Here is u case to
prove this claim. A Wabash Qnd) cor
respondent Of the New York World con
tributes very interesting letter to that
paper showing how tho Democratic of
fee holders OF tho Eleventh Congress

Presidential instructions when their par
ty convention was held Omtting the
names, which the correspondent gives in
full, it appears that among the delegates
or active workers present there were at
least 90 postmasters. in addition TO dep
uty postmasters and other assistants.
One Of the postmasters was chairman of
a delegation and another occupied a seat
on tho platform and yelled himself
hoarse"for his favorite candidate. Very
little attention." writes tho correspond.
cnt, sis paid to the Presidents order in
this section"
The case is not unique, of course. Sim
liar observations can be made at any
Democratic party gathering. The State
convention held by the Iowa Democrats
last June was no exception. The internal
revenue collectors, United States mar
shals and postmasters manipulated that
convention. Nobody expected IL TO be
ance of Clevelands high sounding in
structions, and everybody knew that
they never were intended to be obeyed.
But ii Is quite characteristic OF the Dem.
ocratic press to still keep up the claim of
having introduced superior and cleaner
political methods, and the above facts
are merely noted to help expose the
fraud. Such papers of mugwump origin
as the New York Evening Post, which
has been congratulating the country on
the way in which Democratic office
holders keep out of politics as compared
with the subordinates of Republican adj
ministrations, will be interested in>this
