PRERIDKNT SALoMoN, of the Haytien
Republic, was disposed, according TO re-
port submitted to the Secretary of State
by the United States Consul, at Port Gu
Prince, for several reasons. He is charg-
ed with having acted in an illegal and
arbitrary way, especially in violating the
Constitution, his arrests of Senators and
prominent citizens and keeping tham in
prison during his pleasure for months
and sometimes without giving them a
trial, his wasting the peoples money, al
lowing his favorites to spend without
reason hundreds of thousands of dollars
annually, the shooting of innocent men,
etc. These reasons are enough to de
pose any president provided they can be
proven. But in Hayti they take q differ
ent course. They do not wait on i'm
peachment proceedings. Revolutionary
army was organized and it marched for
the capital of the republic. President
Solomon had to pack up and get out or
else fall sacrifice to the fury OF the rev.
o.utionists. He chose the former course
and is row in New York City. He and
his family will spend the remainder OF
their days in retirement in France.

HOT SPRINGS IN RUINS.

LITTLE Rock, Ark, Aug. 31.-The Ga
zette's Hot Springs, Ark, special ssys:
To-day Is an epoch in the history of Hot
Springs, The city is Quilted. Ruin and
wreck meet the vision everywhere, and
nothing like it has ever been known to
compare with the result of the storm,
which occurred last night too late to be
photographed. 1t was waterspout and
the valley was swept by a mighty tidal
wave. The loss to property is fearful
while the sacrifice of human life is under
the circumstances. appalling. Swift and
terrible was the visitation. Without
warning people were awakened from
slumber to find themselves threatened
with destruction by she mad waves.
Strange to say few people were conscious
of the horrible disaster till they awoke
TO look upon the desolate scenes this
morning and dragged the drowned
from drifts. The storm struck the town
at II O'Clock at night from Northwestern
ly direction. 1t was accompanied by
stiff, cool winds though not strong enough
to produce damage.
RAIN TELL IN TORRENTS
or cessation, Indeed those that were up
and witnessed the awful scene describe it
as one never before seen by
them The vivid flashes of lightning
displayed, as it were, great sheets of fall
ing water. As the close of the
storm q great and ominouS sound,
mingled with the shouts of the people,
and cries Of distress, went up from the
valley and such citizens as were in the
vicinity of the creek and ravines went
forth to render assistance. The food On
Central avenue, the principal thorough
fare, was an angry river. whose rushing
tide swept every thing movable on its
bosom. For over half an hour the avenue
was transformed into torrent SO yards
wide, barrels, boxes aud parts of houses
came down on the tide, and were left
strevn on the sidewalk.
SEVERAL LARGE HOTELS WERE FLOODED
to the de pth OF several feet with murky
water, and many buildings were totally
destroyed. Up to the present time six
persons are known to be missing, five of
whom have been found dead in the wreck
ed buildings, The damage to property is
estimated at 100000.

Settlers Preparing to Defend Themselves
DENVER, Colorado.-Msjor Charles

he departed from Lander, Wyoming, last
Wednesday there -sas considerable tx
cItement among the settlers on account
of an expected outbreak among the
Sho5hone Sioux and the Arapahoe Indians
at Wa>hakail on the Shoshone
reservation. The hostaiity of the
Indians is attributed to their
apprehension that the government in

to the terms of the present neg citations.
Agent Jones has called for military as
sistauce, and ordered the garrison as Ft.
Washakail to prepare for an attack.
The settlers are also making active prep
arations for defense.

IT Is DoUBLB-ABMED,

breeze sets them going, as their faces are
turned against the wind so SIS TO catch its
full force. This appears, however, to be
the only labor saving institution found
in Russia.

troduce the modern implements on his
farms, and was Informed that labor was
too cheap: besides, is was found advan.
tsgeous to give many people work in
the country as possible, because il they

take the recently issued edict on the sub
ject OF education 80 cover their case more
especially than that OF any other class.
The ministry OF public education has but
recsntiy declared that it viii stop the last
avenue possible 20 the education OF the
poorer classes.
IT WILL NOT PERMIT THEM
to enter even che private universities, and
has closed the doors of the public ones
by circular so the curators OF the school
astlc circuits, announcing that the gym
naslum and pro gymnasia will hence
forth refuse 10 receive as pupils, the
children OF domestic servants, cooks,
washer-women, small shop-keepers and
Others of like condition, whose childred,
with the exception perhaps of those gift
ed with extraordinary capacity, should
not be raised from the circle in which
they belong and thereby led, as long ex-
perlence has shown, to despise their
parents, to become DISCONTINUED with
their lot and irritated against the inevi-
table inequalities of existing social con-
ditions.
The reason that this extraordinary
proclamation has been issued, is the
growth of nihilism. This the officials
freely and frankly admit. They say that
as soon as the child of peasant gets
into school END begins to read and think,
he or she becomes nihilist, and goes
into the community whence the pupil
came, and spreads the infection. So the
last channel to intelligence is to be
closed. The edict was issued at the in
stance Of the nobility and is also intend
ed to check the immigration from the
farms to the cities.

HowARD,-Great excitement exists
among all classes here, brought about by
the tiuding of gold dust thickly mixed

which workmen were digging for well

promising one. From the quantity Oh
tanned an assay was made, valuiDg the

WAsHINGToN.-Capt. Benjamin D. Man
ton, United States consul at Colonia,
Uruguay, who is in Washington on leave
of absence, predicts in an interview, the
breaking up of the great empire of
Brazil.
''Its affairs" he says, ARE in precari-
Gus state. The emancipation of the
slaves was merely sop thrown by Prin-
cess Isabella, the regenta, to the liberals.
The six southern provinces, really the
strength of the empire, are ripe for re-
volt and republic. They only await the
death of Dom Pedro, when they will split
the empire, aud president will rule over
Brazil"
Consul Manton says that Uruguay is
prosperous, thriving, and growing, But
the Argentine Republic" he says, sis the
wonder of the world. With population
of only about 100000, she has an immi-
grafton of half a million year."

BERLIN. "A communication of the
National zeitung parports to be semi
official, and states that the time has come
when Italy must mark outthe limits of her
foreign policy. If the italian government
finds it necessary to attack France,
Germany must support her ally. This
concurrence and seni-oficisl language of
the press is giving rise to fears that
Bismarck is using Italy to drive France

A WAR on trusts has been opened in
Louisiana. The attorney general has
brought suit against the cotton seed trust
of that state, on the ground that it is a
monopoly contrary to the laws and con
stitution. One of the strong points that
will be made by the attorney general is
that while the price of seed has fallen
from $14 to 81 ton since the establish
ment of the trust, the prices of products
made by the trust mills have increased at
least 80 per cent. With New York and
Louisiana after these trusts, the public
will soon know whether or not they have
a legal right to fleece the people.

Leading conservatives confess the appre-
hension that the ParneIl commission and
the court proceedings in Scotland will
wreck the ministry. Against Mr.. Par

published were never written by him,
there will be nothing 80 present but sus-
picions of persons themselves under sus-
picion, and such expert testimony as can
always be hired for such affairs on one
side or another. The burden of proof
Will rest on the Times, and the attempt

II is not in Keiser Wilnelm's nature to
carry out the plans for battering the con-
dition of Alsace and Lorraine which were
so admirably outlined in letter Of his
fathers, published upward of month
ago. The bludgeon is to be shaken over
the heads of the unfoI tunate French in
habitants of the imperial province. 1t
seems like reading some history of Po-
land IN her extreme misery to find that
the study of the French language in pub
lie and private schools is to be suppress
ed, and that the probable Intention of the
German government is to deprive the
large and-holders of French extraction
of their estates, cutting them up into
small holdings for the occupation of
thoroughly Teutonic settlers. The en-
peror aud Bismarck should be steFnly re-
minded that co mpulsocy loyalty has very
rarely been a striking success.
Ii is becoming plain that Germany has
been using Italy as catpaw in trying to
force France into a quarrel, in which the
young republic will be at disadvantage
Bismarck would have difficulty in getting
upa war on direct issue between France
and Germany. The German sovereigns
who march to war under the imperial
banner are not mere vassals. Their
assentis necessary to marshal the hosts
Of the empire for fight, and they are
not disposed to minister to the ambitions
of young king of Prussia of whom they
are Jealous. But if Italy and France
should first become involved in war, the
German nation could not refuse to help
its ally out of the difficulty, and the as
sent of tributary kings could be easily
obtained by the imperial war Office. The
universal sentiment of Europe is how
ever, against war just nov, and France is
very patient under provocation. So it is
by no means certain that the game of
Bismarck and his imperial pupil will
meet with speedy success.

circles over Pasteur's endorsement of the
method of incubation for cholera just
discovered by DR.. Gamaleia, of Russia.
While the theory of incubation for

Experiments were thus made almost i'm
possible DR.. Gamaleia finally produced
a cholera germ capable of killing pig
con or guinea-pig, and by series of in
oculations rendered these animals per-

the problem is now solved and expert
ments can safely be made on man who
is affected by a much weaker cholera
germ. Pasteur anticipates that tubercu
Iosis will next be attacked by this method,
with good prospects of success.

settlers here, having been In the employ
OF the Diamond r" from 1880 until
1888. From DIR. Burleigh, who knew
more o. him probably than any one 10

Cleaned the followed particulars of the
deceased:
Major William P. Lynn IN was born
In the northern part OF Pennsylvania
about 1925. his family being highly re.
spected and well to do people. He
came to Dakota, where DR.. Burlelgh

Gsnn Hsrney's expedition, In 1856.
He was with Gen'l Harvey at the bat.
tie OF Ash Hollow, where the Brule
Sioux under Spotted Tail were com.
pletely routed. From there he went
with the command to the site of Fort
Randall, and assisted In the building
Of that post. During the war he
served with the volunteer forces Of
Missouri as q major under General
Todd. He then located at Yanktou,
Dak., where he remained farming aud
stock raising until tho gold excite
ment broke out In the Black Hills.
This induced him to again turn his
steps toward the frontier and he was
among the first to reach the new Ell
Dorado. He remained 10 the Hills,
pursuing various occupations until
1850, when he came to Miles City and
for the first few months of his %sojourn
here was employed by DR.. Burleigh.
Later 10 the anne year he went into
the employ of the Diamond r." with
whom he remained until the close of
1882. His remarkable knowledge Of
the Sioux language, which he spoke
like a native, and his high standing
with the Indians, made him a valuable
nan to manage the trade with three
thousand Sioux Indians, who were at
that time prisoners of war at Keogh.
Early In 1888 he went to Cooke City,
where he has remained ever since
and in the vicinity Of which he died.
He was q man Of good education, Of a
very decided character, the strictest
integrity, and n devoted friend. In
all his intercourse with men since he
bad been ia the west, he had not a
single enemy aud was universally re-,
-pected for his positive aud manly
traits OF character.
DIR. Burleigh was teiegrsphed OF his
illness on the 18th, and but for the
condition OF the roads would have gone
to his bedside.
The body will not be inferred until
his relatives In the east have been
consulted.
