The Disappearance of A,lrire.

No light has yet been thrown on the disap.
pearance Of Edward Allgire, druggist of West
indianapolis, twenty-six years old, who was seen
for the last time on the night of April IL, now
over three months ago. He was of correct
habits, and inquiry has wholly failed to develop
any cause for his disappearance. The young
man was happily married, and left wife and
one child. Some of his friends still think him to
have been foully dealt with. while others think
his disappearance due to mental alteration.

from property owners claiming that their prop
orty has been assessed too high. All seem to

its full reasonable value.

THE PRESIDENT ASTOUNDED
by Repeated kilograms Askingi IL He Was
Shot.

by Repeated kilograms Asking IL He Was
Shot
PROSPECT House, ADIRONDACK Mrs,
n. Y, September 1.-THE most astOnish-
ing incident of somewhat uneventful day
was the receipt of several kilograms asking
if President Cleveland had been really
shot, and if he was much hurt.
Editor Butler, of the Buffalo
Neirs asked for an immediate answer to
this TumOr. From the Western Union
office in New York came an inquiry about
the Presidents condition, and this evening
u similar dispatch was received from Platts-
burg from DR.. Ward, who had reached that
point on his way To his home in Albany.
As Mr.. Cleveland was i'll the enjoyment of
perfect health and no accident or harm had
befallen him, of course only one answer
could DE made to these inquiries. What
puzzles the people here is how sucha rumOr
was set ailOat. 1t could hardly have had
itsaa,,origin in this vicinity, for no such
absurd statements were sent out
from the telegraph office at
this inn, and no dispatch of any such tenor
was sent from the only other telegraph
office in the neighbOrhOOd, that ut Paul
Smiths, seventeen miles away.
Tonight the President treated the mem
berS of his household to trout captured by
himSelfthiS morning.
Another hunt will probably occur to-
morrow, the suggestion of the President to
that effect having been eagerly snapped up
by the sportsmen Mt the inn, and dogs and
guides forthwith collected for the
sport. Mrs. Cleveland and Mrs. Folsom
both devoted the morning 10 stripping
balSam bows, a congcnial task, in which
they were assisted by Miss Cutter, Of
Boston, and Miss Duncan, of Bath, Me.
The strippingS are used for filling
pillows. which being redolcnt with the
odor of halSam, are popularity supposed TO
possess soothing and healing power. The
ladies here have sent several barrels ofthc
stuff in three pound packages through
the mails to their friends. Three
pounds will about fill an ordinary sack
and afford Il head rest to persons who like
that size Of pillows. This afternoon the
ladies will attend a reading ut the camp Of
Mr.. Thee. S. WolSey, on the opposite shore
of the lake.

is the fact that the outward bound passen-
ger train No. IL was due at the town afew
minutes after the explosion occurred. The
the theory Of the police is that that the
wreckers hopedto blow up the tower, and
when the passenger train came along to
throw a switch and thus the train would
have plunged into the mass of cars that
lined the, side tracks. The explosion
would have done greater damage had the
door been closed after the package was
ignited.
There were also
OTHER ATTEMPTS
at destroying property on the Lake Shore
road last night, one of which was success
full. the other resulting in the arrest of the
man concerned in the affair. About 8
o'clock last night the Lake Shore road re-
ceived from the Illinois Central n train Of
tw~enty-eight cars. While these were be
ing taken over the Root street crossing, a
switch was thrown after about half the
cars had passed, causing a general wreck.
Fifteen of the cars were derailed, and al
suited, the contents Of the cars were badly
shaken up.
ARRESTED ON SUSPICION.
About midnight John Fagin, an ex-
switchman of the Lake Shore road, was ar
rested at Forty-third street Just as he was
about, it is charged, 10 throw a switch,
with the purpose of derailing a train drawn
by engine No. So. The arrest of Fagin
was made by one of the Pinkerton officers,
y-hn ora ctiI nrorlinn Tho Ial-a Shnrn
tracks at that point, the prisoner being
taken to the Harrison station and locked
up. Fagin was seen in his cell this morn
ing. His explanation of the affair is rs
follows: In company with n man named
Murphy, who is also an ex-L.ake Shore
switchman, he was walking along the
tracks, and claims that neither OF, them
noticed the approaching freight train until
it was so close to them that they were sep
arated by it. He says that when arrested
by the PinkertOn officer he was looking
under the train, rs it passed by, to see If
any harm had came to Murphy,
The Lake Shore officials, when they
heard of the attempt to blow up the signal
tower, were
GREATLY EXERCISED.
Superintendent Amsden Immediately went
70 Fortieth street to make investigations.
phe officers of the road knew nothing of
circumstances except what they heard
rom meagre reports.
w. II. Mcintosh, Chief of the detective
force of the company, this morning said
that up to yesterday the attempts to de
stroy the property of the company had
been confined to points at some distance
north and south of the Forty-third street
yards. The police had confined themselves
to Il surveillance of the points Mt which
these attacks had been made and the signal
tower had been left entirely unprotected.
Mr.. Mcintosh further said that he was sure
he knew who committed the outrage last
night, and that he would have them all
under arrest within 4Shours. He has sent
ont all the available men under his super,
vision and 4 determined effort to %apprchcnd
the perpetrators is now being made.
