A Very Bad State of Affairs

DUBLIN, January 1.-THE State of
desperation into which many of the
Irish laboring people have been thrown,
by long continued privations, was illus
trated to-day by an occurrence at
Lismore County. Waterford. The
board OF guardians at the Lismore poor
law union was holding It's weekly meet
ing, when crowd of laborers burst into
the room and, in mena, ing language,
demanded assistance for themselves
and their families. They threat, ned
that unless help was soon forthcom ng,
they would plumber the neighboring
farms IN order to obtain means of sub
sistence. Mr.. Michael Davitt approves
the proposition, to buy out the Irish
landlords and suggests an Anglo-Irish
arbitration commission to settle terms
of the purchase.

WATER FAMINE.
Threatened Danger of One in
Cleveland.
AN EARTHQUAKE EXPERIENCE.
Bills introduced - Thirty Soldiers

Water Famine.

CLEVELAND. January IA There is
imminent danger of water famine
here. AT u last night it was found
necessary to shut down one of the
pumps on account of needle ice and
another was compelled to stop this
morning at daylight because of the
same reason. The two remaining pumps
are working about one-half of their
capacity. They furnish about one
fourth the average supply per day.
The residences on number
OF streets were cut off from the mains
this afternoon, and efforts will be made
pumped. The engineer thinks, with
great care, there is a supply sufficient
for ordinary circumstances, but should
fire occur, the city would be in sorry
plight. A force OF men has been sent
out to the crib, but the engineer thinks
nothing can BE- accomplished till the
weather moderates.
CLEVELAND January 1.-THE two big
pumps, which were kept at work at IN
Iervals during the afternoon, were shut
down this evening. the supply of water
having been cut off entirely. The cause
of the stoppage, as given by the water
works officials, is that the stand pipe
which leads into the tunnel out at the
crib, and not the tunnel itself is choked
with ice. The top of this stand pipe is
several feet below the surface of the
lake, and is covered with a graf
ing to prevent the entrance of
drift wood and other large
Instructions. Fine ice is, how
ever. sucked through the grating
and as been solidly packed into the
pipe by the force of the water. The
manufacturing establishments de-
pended on the city for their water, and
tonight water is being hauled from the
river and lake to supply the establish
ments that must run all night. The
city is in perilous condition. Should
fire break out in the business part of
the city, the department could not do
anything with it. They could get no
water and the only apparatus that
could be called into service, would
be two or three chemical engines. At
IL o'clock tonight the water works
officials had glvenup all hope of remov-
ing the ice from the stand pipe before
tomorrow. The pipe is ninety feet in
height and nine feet in diameter, and is
packed full of ice. 1t may be necessary
to wait until the weather becomes
warmer and the ice thaws, for it seems
almost an impossibiiity to remove the
obstruction by any mechanical process.

AFearfu1 Experience.

New YORK, January 14.-Mail adj
vices from Panama on the 9Th instant
contain the following: At 2 o'clock
on the morning of December 18th, the
Spanish city Amatillan, town of 5000
inhabitants, situated twenty-five miles
south of Guatemala, was awakened by
frequent shocks of earthquake, which
continued all day until $50 pm, when
very heavy shock was felt, and at
$50 pm. the heaviest shock came,
throwing down many walls and
houses already assured by the
early shocks. The people were thrown
down, the air was filled with
dust from the fallen houses, shock
followed upon shock, and the frightened
people rushed to large plaza in front
of the Church of San Juan and dragon

side the building, erected a temporary
shrine in the middle of the square, be
fore which they ali Frustrated them
selves. One hundred and thirty-one
shocks were felt on the first day, priE-
cipally from east to west, eightysone of
which O. occurred between % n and
5.36 pm. The ~ second day was
nearly as bad, and the2s shocks
continued for some days subsequently.
AmatiIlan was destroyed by an earth
quake in 1880, which lasted, from April
81 to May 8. In 1916 it was overfowed
by rising waters of the lake, and again
in October 1852 when the water gushed
up in the middle streets. Eight days
afterward,. when the waters had sub,
sided. dead fish were found everywhere

The Murdered Project.

PARIS, January 14.-The name of the
project murdered in the railway car
rage was NJ. Barreme. He came to
Paris to receivs instructions from NJ.
Sarrien, the new Minister of the In
terror, and was returning to Erreut,
the capitol of the department of Eure.
when he was assassinated. The corpse
was found with the eyes bandaged and
the skull smashed in, The body lay
between the rails on the bridge
and it is evident that the murderers in
tended to throw it into the Seine. NJ.
Barreme's pocket book of loose money
and his watch were gone. A number of
the most experienced detectives in Paris
have been detailed to work up the case,
but their search, so far, has resulted in
finding no clue. except that just
prior to the starting of the train, a
gentleman inquired of the guards
whether NJ. Barreme was aboard. On
being answered in the affirmative, he
purchased a ticket and boarded the
same train. NJ. Barrema was the Iather
of a large FAMILY, ana was an excellent
administrator. Various members OF
government have sent dispatches of
coincidence to his widow. The murder
is the sole topic. 1t is now known
that he had a large sum of
money in his possession. 1t is sup
posed that the murderers we're dis
turbed in their operation of rifiing the
clothes of the dead, and overlooked
the rocket containing 537 francs. The
doctor, who examined the body, ex-
pressed the opinion that NJ. Barreme
was murdered with a bludgeon, and
that the first blow killed him.

Not omcially Acknowledged.

BERLIN, January 1.-THE accuracy
of the news already published regarding
Germany's seizure of Samoa is not
acknowledged in official circles. The
statement is officially given out that
the German government has no inten-
ton of announcing the Samon
Islands. The incidents reported in
the news dispatches are explained
according to this statement, as re-
ferring to measures adopted by
the German authorities to prevent
King Malietoa from carrying out his
illegal attempt to withdraw the guar
antees he had given for the protection
of German interests and rights. 1t is
positively asserted that nothing can
haYe occurred which will in any
wise affect the existing treaties between
the Samoan government and Germany,
England or America.
LONDON, January IA. = Count Won
Haztfelt, German ambassador, had an
interview to day with the Marquis of
Salisbury regarding the alleged seizure
of Samoa by Germany. The ambassa-
dor said he had been instructed by
Prince Bismarck to assure Lord Sails
bury that Germany would neither annex
Samoa nor permanently interfere with
the government of the Islands.

Typhoid Germs IN Infected MIX.

There was great alarm recently con-
corning the milk from some of the
dairy districts in the State of New
York. Milk cans had been returned
without washing, and in consequence
there were a number of cases of low
typhoid fever. In each case the fever
attacked the weak, and those whose
constitutions were so disordered as not
to be able to resist the disease. Enrich
your blood and strengthen your consti-
you can resist attacks which otherwise
may prove fatal. 1t cures dyspepsia,
