PARTIALLY SUCCESSFUL.
A Deadly Missile Placed Under q
House, Where It Explodes.
The Poor Quality Of IT'S Manufacture Alone
Saves the Lives of Number
OF People,

CHICAGO, July 27.-An unsuccessful at
tempt was made shortly after three o'clock
this morning to blow up the house OF
Christian Kreuger, 875 Lincoln avenue.
The agent used to do the work was dyna-
mite bomb made out Of piece of ordinary
two-inch welded gas-pipe, about eight
inches long. There were dozen people
sleeping in the house. Some time after
two O'Clock Mr.. Kreuger was awakened
by the barking OF his dog. He raised
window and looked out, but there was no
sign of any thing startling taking place.
Mr.. Kreuger had just begun to doze
again, when suddenly there was tre-
mendous report. The house gave lurch,
and in an instant Lincoln avenue for
blocks was astir. A piece of gas-pipe
splintered to pieces and large hole in the
ground told the tale. "rhey tried to blow
Kreuger up" was on the lips Of every
body. The bomb had been placed half
way under the south corner of the house,
in the front. 1t had blown upward
after blowing a furrow In the ground,
and at one corner of the building there
Is the mark of the missile, which nearly
gouged it's way through the board. The
front of the house was bespattered with
the explosive. The police were first of the
opinion that it was simply a scare, and
that the pipe was charged with nothing
but powder. 1t has since been demon-
strated that it contained dynamite, and
that probably only the clumsness OF
the maker prevented wreck. Mr..
Kreuger is n German about fifty years
of age, and has no idea who could have at
tempted the diabolical deed. Several
years ago he kept a saloon on Fullerton
avenue and Perry street. In this neigh
borhood large number of Poles reside.
It is said that Mr.. Krueger has always con-
demned strikes, and the brick makers, who
frequented his place, were bitter against
him for that reason. As they are now on
a strike, it is thought they determined to
avenge themselves. The police have this
theory, but it is only conjecture.

HARLAN COUNTY WAR.
Exciting Scenes and Blood,shed In
Kentucky.
Several woundsd-County Judge, with
Ono Hundred Armed Men, Occspy
the Court House.

LOUISVILLE, July ga letter was rc-
ceived by United States Marshal Gross
from Harlan Courthouse this morning
which shows that a most alarming feud
exists at that place. One of his deputies
writes: "We are having state Of warfare
in Harlan County at this time between the
whisky men and the citizens. The whisky
men are determined to sell their product
at all hazards. The county judge has
done all that is possible to be done to
stop 1t, but could not accomplish his pur-
pose until he had taken the blind tigers
by force Of arms. In this way he has
captured and poured out all the whisky.
Then the whisky men left gathered their
friends, returned and assaulted the town.
A fight ensued, in which j. B. Bagley and
William Mopins were wounded. 1t is also
learned that the whisky men, w. G. Polin
and Joseph Blaire were shot. The liquor
men were dislodged and again left. They
returned with William Howard, who killed
three men two years ago, and began firing
upon the town with Winchesters, and
Jake Howard fell wounded. The county
judge, with one hundred armed men, now
occupy the courthouse, and will make
desperate resistance to any attack. We
are expecting another battle, as the whisky
people are securing the country in all
directions gathering men and guns"
Marshal Gross has been asked to send u.s.
sistance to the bloody grounds.

Nitro -Giycerine Factory Near Lima Again
Blown Up-who Was the strip of Flesh q
Part Off
LIMA, o., July 29.--This afternoon about
half-past twelve o'clock the Rock Com
pany's nitro-glycerine factory, located
two miles south Of this city, was blown up
with terrific force, buildings in the city
being shaken, and the report being heard
plainly. The building, alarge frame struc-
ture, was completely demolished, one OF
the heavy wooden stills being picked up
over three hundred feet away. The
earth where the factory stood was torn
up to the depth Of about fifteen feet. Tbs
was the factory in which Fred Newman
and Steve Phillips were killed by the ex-
plosion Of an agitator last week. About
eight hundred pounds of glycerine was
stored in the factory, which, from marks
found on pieces of debris, was set on fire
by tramps, several being seen in the woods
around the factory in the morning. A
long strip Of flesh, evidently from mans
leg, was found some distance from the
scene Of the explosion, but whether 1t is
from some one killed to-day or from the
bodies of Newman or Phillips is unknown.

OIL CITY, PA, July 27.-Dr. j. G. Rey-

care made Of the skin Of rattlesnake. At
first sight the cane has the appearance Of
being made of highly polished mottled

vanished and handsomely mounted.
The rattlesnake of which the cane is made
was captured in Forest County,
near Oil City, last year. 1t bit
boy named Ed Bollovar, who died in great
agony two days later. The snake was
kept in a glass cage, and was said to be
one Of the most vicious specimens ever
seen in captivity. 1t was taken to Buffalo
and kept in a private museum, where it
bit lady, who died from the effects. She
fingered some weeks, and was taken to
Paris for treatment, but her life could not
be saved. Gruber bought the snake in Buff
falo, intending to keep it with collection
he has here, but concluded it was too
vicious to keep where there were so many
persons to look at, and so had it killed
with chloroform, and the skin made into a
cane.

Victims Of a Feud ,

LOUISVILLE, KY, July 28.-A dispatch
from London, KY, says: The war has
broken out again in Perry County. Two
of the Eversole gang were shot last Satur-
day. Shad Combs, who lived in Trouble-
some, ten miles from Hazard, while mount-
ing hi. ,orse in front of his house, was
shot from the bush and instantly killed.
John Campbell, merchant of Hazard, and q
brother in law of j C. Eversole, who was re-
Gently waylaid and killed, was dangerously
wounded last Friday night on the streets
of Hazard. There are several reports con-
cerning the shooting of Campbell. One is
that he was killed by his friends, who mis-
took him for one of tho enemy. Both
Combs and Campbell were active particle
pants in the French -Eversole feud. A
teamster from Hazard describes the situa-
ton as similar to the days of the rebellion,
when lawless bands prowled through the
country. Every man is afraid to leave his
house after night.

GREAT TIN FIELD.

Company Organized in Pittsburgh to Open
Mexican Mine That Promises to Beat
the World.
PITTSBURGH, PA, July 29.-A company
was formed in this city last evening with
a capital stock of $1,O0O,Ooo, the object be-
ing to open a tin mine in Mexico, near Du-
range. A tract of land has been purchased
covering an area of ten miles square. An
expert, who assayed the ore, says it will
yield from twenty-five to thirty five per
cent. tin, which is the largest in the world.
The distributing point will be Ell Paso, and
from there pig tin will be shipped to New
York. A number of factories will be
started soon to manufacture tin, and it is
believed the product from England, which
amounted to S24,OOO,OOO last year, will be
shut out entirely after the different works
are started.

MIDDLETowN, Conn.,, July 25.-One Of
the rarest curiosities to be seen on the
streets of this town is boy named
Mylchreest. He is about twelve years
OF age. He was born without arms,
yet he plays ball and peddles papers on
the streets. He carries silver and pennies
in his boots, and can make change as
rapidly as any one, picking out pennies or
nickles with his toes. Henever makes any
mistakes, and can tell the size Of coin by
feeling of it with his toes. Young
Mylchreest keeps his feet very clean.
1t is indeed a funny sight
to see him sit at table with a knife be-
tween the toes Of one foot, and fork held
by the toes of the other foot, as he rapidly
cuts up his food and places it in his mouth.
During the school vacation this lad can be
seen daily driving horse attached to
heavy wagon loaded with sand or
stone, which belongs to his father, VIM.
Mylchreest, builder. He holds the reins
between his toes and handles the whip
with ease in the same manner. He can
throw a stone with considerable force and
is very bright and active. In school he
stands we'll in his classes. He is popular
with all his playmates and the public in
general.

Steamboat Mate Kills a Deck Hand.

MEMPHIS, TENN, July 29.-Yesterday, at
Concordia, Miss, difficulty occurred be-
tween Lee Huff, mate of the steamer Goa
homa, and one of the colored deck crew,
which resulted in the killing OF the negro,
who, while attempting to cut the mate, was
shot three times. The shooting created
great excitement. and fearing violence at
the hands of the negroes, who are largely
in the majority at Concordia, the mate was
rowed across the river to the Arkansas
side, and will doubtless join his boat here.

MINERAL PRODUCTS

The United states Leads tho Worid-Tn.
crease in Production.
WASHINGTON, July 28.-Mr. David T.
Bay, Chief Of the Division Of Mining Sta
tistcs. has submitted a summary Of the
mineral products Of the United States in
1887 in advance Of the official report. The
total value is Sb3s, ,058, ,345. Itshows a WON
derful gain over 1888, and is $l0O,0OO,000
greater than the output OF 1896. The
United States leads the world in the pro-
duction OF minerals. The principal gains
In 'S7 were in the production OF me-
tallic ores and the fuels necessary for
melting them. The production Of pig-iron
alone increased more than $28,000,000. The
higher price of copper caused notable ex-
pansion in that industry. The product OF
coal is the largest ever recorded. Taken
as whole, the report shows great pros.
perty for the mining industry. The grand
total value OF more than half n billion dol.
lars, the report says, resulted not only
from the quantity of minerals mined, but
also from general advance in the prices
Of metals. 1t may be several years before
this total is exceeded, and the year 1888
will fall considerably below it. Among
many reasons for the decrease this year 10
the decline in railroad building.

Six Tramps Lose Their Lives by Freight
Train Collision---Louisville Cigar Maker
Ono of the Number.
LINCOLN, NED., July 26.-A report comes
from Yutan, q village about forty miles
north of Lincoln, that while a freight train
was passing that place about one o'clock
yesterday morning, it broke in two at the
brow Of hill, the rear cars crashing into
the forward part Of the train with great
force, deraiing four or five cars, wrecking
them. One of the wrecked cars was load
ed with corn, in which six tramps had con-
cealed themselves. This car was over
turned and the tramps smothered to death
by the corn. Three of the bodies are
identified. One is John G. Taylor, cigar
maker, Of Louisville KY. Another is that
Of Chas. Spokes, Of Wymor, Neb. The
third is that of Carl B. Talbot, who has
letters from Columbus, Neb.
