A BLOODY Fight In Virginia.

LEXINGTON, Nov. 9.-Reports received
here from ~Brownsburg. a small village
of about 800 people in Rockridge county,
fourteen miles from Lexington. state
that the village is terribly excited over
a bloody fight among the leading men
of the vicinity. DIR. z. j. Walker, one
of the most prominent physicians and
surgeons of the state, threatened the
life of Henry Miller, a prominent and
wealthy citizen Of Rockridge county,
for insulting the formers wife. Miller
had Walker arrested and placed under
bonds to keep the peace. This after
noon the case came up in a magistrates
court, and trouble was eon started,
which ended in both sides drawing their
weapons. Miller was killed, DIR.
Walker fatally wounded and Mrs
Walker, who was a witness, vas also
killed. Dan and William Miller, sons
of the accused. were shot and Dan seri-
ously wounded. Samuel Beaver and
others whose names are unknown were
also injured. The sheriff and a posse
have gone to the scene of the trouble.

FOUND In A SEWER
The Clothing and Surgical lnstru-
ments of Dr.. Cronin Dis
covered.
The Articles Are Fully Identified
by the Conklins and
Others.
"A Man Suicides al the Entrance of
Judge McConnell's Court
IL Caused Wild Ex-
element.
Cronin's Clothes Found.

CHICAGO, Nov. o.-Late yesterday
afternoon the clothing and instrument
case Of DR.. Cronin were found by a party
OF workmen and caused great excite
ment. The articles were taken to Mrs.
.Conklin's family, with whom DIR. Cronin
lived, and were fully identified by herself
and husband and a few others.
Complaints had beca made recently
that the sewer at tho intersection Of
Evanston and Buena N was run
ming over, and workmen were sent to
investigate the trouble. The cover va
removed from the manhole in the center
of the street and after a few minutes
work with poles and hooks two valises
were brought up, one a leather n and
the other the remnants of a cheap paper
one. In the leather valise was found
DIR. Cronin's prescription book with
several prescriptions bearing his sigma
ture. The paper one dropped TO
pieces as it was pulled out and from it
rolled a mass of tattered clothing, most
of which had been cut in strips. The
only garment remaining intact was the
vest, which was in the center, and which
encircled the doctors ease Of surgical
instruments. The clothes had evidently
been cut in the hope that they would
o drop apart and be bourne away
in the sewer. The clothing, surgical
case and prescription book, the latter
two being marked with Cronin's name,
were fully identified by the Conklins
and others as the property Of the muir
dercd physician. The most damaging
OF all the circumstances for the prison
ers is the fact that the find was made
only one block from the spot where the
bloody trunk was discovered after it
had been thrown hurriedly from the
wagon, and only half a mile south of
where the body was found in the catch
basin. The paper valise is supposed 20
be the n purchased by -. Ii.
Simonds" and tomorrow a clerk will en-
deayor to identify it.
A tragic event which occurred Just in
front of the court house while every
body was exam n ny these articles
caused wild excitement. A shot was
heard Just at the entrance 10 Judge
McConnell's coprt. A dozen lawyers
and re porters rushed out and found
stretched on the sidewalk the body of a
large man, revolver in hand and brains
oozing from his skull. He was dead,
and as no one could identify him it was
at once presumed that his tragic death
had some mysterious connection with
the sensational discoveries of the day.
After an hours investigation, however,
it was learned that his name was Ed
ward Rehm, and that he had been fol
some time known TO be partially in
sane He doubtless suicided while
laboring under mental alteration.

South Has Gone North.

FARGO, n. D., Nov. "a young
farmer named Frank South, living near
this city, recently purchased property,
mostly on the installment plan, making
small payments, giving chattel mort
cages for the balance. The sheriff pro-
ceeded to satisfy one of these chattel
claims yesterday by hevying on forty
head of stock and some farm utensils.
No sooner were these proceedings com.
menced han s~ixty-seven other chattel
mortgages agains: the same property
were filed. South evidently anticipated
trouble and crossed into Canada a day
ahead Of the officers. The amount
taken by him is yariously estimated At
between S. 900 and SIS, 200. The rent
! Of the farm on which he was a tenant
has not been paid, and other chattel
claims against property amount TO about
ST., 900, while the property Is only
worth about 5000. Inasmuch as nc
two OF the sixty-eight chattel mortgages
cite exactly the same pieces OF property
complicated litigation must follow.

Saw the Blood Stains.

CHICAGO, Nov. On the Cronin case
this morning Gerhart Wardell, a gar
dener. wa the first witness. He testi-
fled that on the night Of May 4 about
1890 o'clock he was at the corner of
Otto and Ashland avenues, and noticed
two men who were walking about 200
feet ahead of him. They seemed to
have come out of a saloon on the corner
Of School street. They walked up Ash
land avenue and entered the Carlson
cottage by the front door. Witness
described the men. One was a
large man about ) feet IL inches,
the other was about five feet seven.
Witness saw them plainly when they
entered the cottage and saw a light in
side through me of the shutters. The
next day witness and wife passed tho
cottage on their way TO mass and witness
saw blood on the steps and on the plank
walk over the ditch in front Of the
house. The cross-examination was brief
and nothing new was brought out.

THE NEW MEXICO BLIZZARD.
Several Herders and Many Cattle Frozen
to D~eath-Other Storms.

to Death-other Storms.
CLAYTON, n. NJ, Nov. 9.-The storm
has abated, and for the first time in nine
days the sun is shining. While nc
authentic reports have been received
concerning the loss Of life. reports come
from inland that several Mexican
herders were frozen on the Leon, q
small creek, twenty miles south Of
town. No communications have been
had directly and the mails to seven diff.
ferent postofices inland have not ar
rived. Some apprehension is felt con-
corning the mail driver, who should
have reached Clayton last evening, but
has not as yet appeared. kilograms
from Grande tonight give another case
of freezing-that Of Joe Martin, a cow
boy. The depth of the snow cannot be
pushed by four engines was
stopped by drifts two miles
north Of town today. and
only after eight hours of %shoveling was
released. Trainmen report that much
difficulty was experienced in the diff
ferent cuts, which in some places are
completely filled with dead cattle and
sheep. The loss to both Is tremendous.
Old cowmen say with the present depth
of snow stock will be unable TO live for
any length OF time, and unless the cold
weather moderates and the crust which
has formed on the snow loosens, the
mortality among cattle will be tremen-
dous. Several cowboys who drifted Oft
with their herds have not been heard
from, and rescuing parties looking for
them will return tomorrow.
CLARENDON. Tex, Nov. 9.-The deep
est snow in twelve years is on the
ground now. The Fort Worth and Dem
yer trains are blockaded north Of here
in drifts nine feet deep. II is the worst
storm that ever visited the Panhandle.
KANSAS CITY, Nov. 9.-Dispatches
from western and southern Kansas give
details Of a fierce snowstorm that ragged
there today. Snow, hail and sleet fell
so thickly and was driven so iercely by
the wind that in many places people did
not dare to venture out Of doors.

He Was Only a Crank.

CHICAGO, Nov. 9.-Chief of Detectives
Elliott today received a long communi-
cation from Police Magistrate .Sholts, of
Sparta, Wis, in which a strange story
is told Of a man found living alone in a
ave on the banks of the Lacrosse river,
a short distance from Sparta. The
man was clad in rags and subsisted on
herbs, berries and raw corn. He is un-
able I talk, but wrote his name as
Bernard Malay. A farmer living in the
vicinity Of the cave informed the magis-
trate that three months before the
strange man came 10 his house and
asked for food. While there he spoke
glibly of the Cronin murder and the
Grammatical. A photograph of the Eel.
low accompanied the communication.
The supposition of Justice Sholts that
the man is Cooney, The Fox" is an
one, as one glance at the pic
ture proves Chief Elliott will take no
action in the matter.

A Crazy Mans Deed.

NEW ORLEANS, Nov. 9.-Bayou Boeuf,
a small station on the Southern Pacific
road, ninety miles from here, was the
scene yesterday of a terrible tragedy,
in which two men lost their lives and
four others were dangerously and two
fatally injured. While standing on the
platform Leon Thibodeaux was accosted
by a stranger, who slapped him roughly
on the shoulder. He objected 10 it, and
the next moment. without warning, the
stranger drew a long knife and stabbed
hin in the neck and side, wounding him
so he could not rise. His brother Neil
sprang TO his rescue, but the
stranger stabbed him also and felled
him to the ground. Leon drew his re-
volver and fired once at the desperate,
but without effect. Melas Thibodeaux,
a cousin of the wounded men, came TO
their relief. He met the same fate.
Frank Permission, hearing the cries of
the wounded men, ran up from the
other side of the bayou. The next
moment the stranger plunged the
weapon into Penniston's heart, killing
him instantly. The desperate seemed
excited by the blood he had shed, for
without cause or provocation he next at
tackled Joseph Morrison, one of the
armed railroad employees, infiicting no
less than ten wounds. Leaving his five
victims on the platform, the murderer
ran down and took q skill and padded
away. AS soo as the affair became
known the relatives OF the wounded
men followed along the shore and shot
the murderer dead. 1t is thought the
man was crazy.

Anxiety at Johnstown.

YOUNGSTOWN, Pa, Nov. 9.-The high
water in the Conemaugh river caused
by the recent heavy rains is causing
great anxiety among the residents Of
the lowlands in the valley. Several
bridges along the stream have already
been swept away, and the large bridge
at Cambria City erected by General
Hastings after the flood in May is
damaged beyond repair. In Woodyale
the lower floors of many houses are
under several inches of, water. The
river is rising rapidly and the indica-
lions are for more rain.

THE POWER OF THE POPE.
A Catholic Journal Takes New Crowd oil
a Church Question.

A Catholic JournaI Takes New GroUnd on
"A Church Question.
BALTIMORE, Nov. 9.-On the question
of the temporal power Of the pope, the
Catholic Mirror this week takes ground
that is somewhat new 10 the Catholic
press. The Mirror says:
We think we voice the intelligent
sentiment of American Catholics when
we say that it is not desired to interfere
with the geographical lines that now
define the boundaries Of the kingdom OF
Italy. The kingly prerogatiye that
formerly inferred in the pontifcate in
relation TO the temporalities that consti-
tuted the papal dominions is neither
essential nor indispensable to the spirit
ual dominion of the pope. The holy
father has no absolute need for extern
sive territory wherein to WELD the
power and exercise the rule of an
earthly kingdom. The transfer of those
states that constituted the temporal
possessions of the church from the con-
troll of tho papacy 10 that of the secular
power of Italy cannot be regarded as a
deprivation affecting the spiritual
interests of the Catholic world.
1t was never contemplated that the
maintenance of the papacy was TO de-
pend upon the revenues derived from
temporal possessions of any kind. 1t
is the business and duty Of the Catho-
lies of the world to properly support
and maintain such a system as is neces-
sary to carry on the government of the
church. The perpetuity Of the church's
mission does not involve the possession
Of temporal power" in its old sense.
But while Catholics do demand that the
sovereign pontiff shall enjoy absolute
freedom in the exercise Of his spiritual
authority. he must no be subject to any
secular power no dependent upon any"

THIRTEEN MILE GUNS.

Two monster Russian guns were sent
recently to Sebastopol, says the London
Times, for the purpose of being placed in
the new ironclad Sinope, and although
some of the details must be inaccurate,
the official description is too interesting
to be ignored. They are II inch pieces,
weighing so tons, and throwing projec-
tiles of nearly half ton. The powder
charge is 27O pounds, and the initial We
locity 5000 meters, while the distance of
the cannons' ranges is said to be 20 versts,
or over - miles AS consequence, the
fire of the guns can only be directed by
the map, the object fired at being out of
sight. Two men, however, suffice for
each gun, as they are worked by hydraul-
ic machinery.

NOT ENCOURAGING.

Gen. Harrison, says the Boston Herald,
is to enter upon his term as President in
a period of business depression, in which
Pennsylvania is said especially to partic-
ipate. Her manufacturers are reported
to be very blue, and to have yet seen no
prospect of returns of the investment
they made in politics in the late campaign.
But they have had their way in it, which
is some consolation. The pinch without
relief is more in danger of visiting their
workingmen, and there are signs that it
Is not far away.
