OUTINGS CASE,

The Reports About the whole Affsir said
to be Highly Exaggerated.
NEW York, Aug. 5.-A Toronto special
says: Colonel D. v. Whitney, Of Chicago,
who is escorting the new Mexican Minister
to Spain and Portugal and party through
the United States and Canada, and who
left Mexico City July IL, passed through
here to-day. When spoken to about the
case Of Editor Cutting, in jail in
Mexico, for libel, he said: "You
people up North who read telegraph
dispatches about Cuttings case get more
startling news about the affair than we do
in Mexico. We have heard no talk there
about war with the United States. All
those sensational reports about the case
are made by Cuttings friends, who wish to
make q hero out Of him. Cutting has
broken the laws of the Republic on libel
and has had to pay the penalty. I think
he will be released from Jail. The Mexican
Government has no desire to keep him in
durance for any great length Of time Cut
ting's character is not of the best, and the
man he libeled is not much better. They
both deserve to be in jail"

and swan to his rescue, catching him just
as he was going down for the last time.
After half an hours hard work he was
brought to consciousness.

Murder Mystery Cieare 4.

New York, Aug. 4-By a confession
made tonight by a young married woman,
named Mrs. Barton, a supposed murder
mystery is cleared up. July 25 the body
of Frank Pfster was found in wagon at
the head of Scholes street, Brooklyn. From
Mrs. Barton's statement, it seems that she
was walking home with Pfster on the
evening in question, and that he tried to
assault her. She resisted, and Pfster pro-
duced pistol. Mrs. Barton screamed, and
Pfster fired q shot. Mrs. Barton finally
succeeded in gaining possession Of the
weapon, and with it struck Pfister on the
head. Pfster was not able to get away.
The blow probably was on the temple, or
some vital spot, and Pflster from weakness
lay down in a wagon and died there. The
woman is only fifteen years old.

HsP Life and the Lives Of Two Children
Saved BY Chance.
PMLADELPnlA, Aug. IA mother showed
remarkable presence of mind In preserving
the lives Of her children, ct Sea Island City,
N. j., where her house was blown down
during the recent Storm. The lady said that
she felt the house rocking and was about
preparing to leave and 60 to neighbor's
when she felt the braces give way and the
house being raised. She thoughtfully threw
herself upon the floor and drew her three
children to her, which action no doubt saved
the lives Of all, for had they been standing
oil would have been crushed. After the
fall Of the house, by the aid Of the constant
lightning one Of the boys was enabled to
make his way between two trunks, but
Carl refused to leave his mother until the
baby, which was in the cot, had been
found. He had groped about and at last
touId the infant nearly dead. The mother
and children then made their escape. A
second after they left the back part Of the
house fell over upon the spot from which
they had just escaped. Mrs. Mclaughlin
and the children were taken in by the
neighbors and cared for. The mother then
became very weak and swooned.

Strange Accident.

WILKEsBARRE, Pa, Aug. "a remarka-
BILE thing happened at the Wyoming race
track to-day. The driver of Ike Shultz
was making the three-quarter mile turn in
the $3.50 race, when one of the traces and
the belly-band broke. All the harness fell
of the horse and he became greatly agi-
tated. The driver maintained his seat by
holding on to the reins, the latter taking the
place Of the traces. The spectators were
horror-struck at the sight, and when the
horse and driver passed under the wire the
utmost quiet reigned. The horse was fin
ally brought to stand-still at the quarter
mile pole

OF icc-cream poisoning, which mani

This word is derived from the vanilla

due to the exhaustion of the land and
the abuse of Peruvian guano as fertil-
