The White Chapel Murder.
LONDON, Sept. 10.-At half-past five
this morning policeman found the
body of an abandoned woman, lying
on the corner of the railway arch
spanning Cable Street, White Chapel.
Examination of the body showed the
head and legs to have been cut off and
carried away and the stomach ripped
open, leaving the bowels lying ON the
ground. The police authorities imme
diately placed Gordon of officers
around the spot, but no arrests have
been made. The policemen passed
the place where the body was found
every fifteen minutes throughout the
night and saw nothing to arouse any
suspicious. The physicians who ex-
amined the body believe the murder
occupied nearly an hour and that the
supposed murderer carried the head
and legs away in bag. The murder
is the most horrible of the White
Chapel series. Examination of the
body shows that the perpctrator pos
sessed considerable surgical skill. The
murdered woman was about 80 years
of age and evidently addicted to the
use of spurious liquors. Her clothing
has not yet been identified. The mar
der created tremendous excitement
and large crowd surrounds the
morgue where the body was taken. A
further examination reveals the fact
that there was no blood on the ground
where the body was found nor was
there any indications OF a struggle.
This confirms the general belief that
the woman was murdered in house
and the body taken to the spot where
it was discovered. The trunk was
nude and torn and bloody. The che
mise was lying near it. Experts are
of the opinion that the woman was
killed two days ago. Three sailors
subsequent to the discovery OF the
body, were found sleepingin an adjoin-
ing toll arch, and were arrested, but
told the police that they had neither
seen nor heard anything of the murder,
or the body lying near them and were
discharged.

Napoleon.

The duke said: ."After the retreat of
Bonaparte from Leipsic, he never, in
fact, had any hope of getting over his bad
fortune. Mole, hen minister of war,
told me that shortly after Napoleon's re-
turn at that time to Paris he was playing
at billiards with him when he became
thoughtful and, laying down his cue, be-
gan talking to him of the impossibility of
ever reviving the spirit of the nation suf-
ficiently to expel the northern powers.
Had these reverses, he said, occurred In
the first days of the republic, there would
have been a freshness of spirit that might
have saved the game, but hat spirit was
how worn out and never could again be
expected to revive. Yet, with this de-
pressing conviction upon his mind, he
went through his wonderful campaign of
Champagne with an activity perhaps I'M
paralleled in his former wars" The
dukes invariable comment on Napoleon
was: "He was not a gentleman."-Per-
sonal R~ecollections of Lady de Ros in
Murray's Magazine.

The Foreign Idea of Ba,e Ran.

New YORK, April Capt. Leigh
Lynch, one of the managers of the party,
told an interesting Story of the trip to a
crowd of eager listeners. Among other
things he said:
While our trip was enjoyable from
almost every point OF view, while we had
attentive audiences everywhere, the audi
ences in nearly every case understood
nothing about the gam and consequently
were unable to appreciate tae best points
Of the play. / believe they understood
and appreciated the game better in Eng
land han in any other country we visited.
You see the game of FOUNDERS, which they
playthere, gives them an idea of what
base ball is. but the idea, | am compelled
to admit. is sort of hazy. Still, we have
found audiences IL San Francisco, when
we started u on our tour, who under
stood less about our game than English
audiences"
I'm what country was our game least
understood"
wei, | never thought of trying to find
out, but | would say that it was less
understood IN Italy than anywhere else.
| think the game will now be generally
taken up, at least in the British isles. II
not, another tour of American ball players
would not help it, for we have shown
them as much as we ever can.

The stomach DIsriIs Acids.

These, if existent in a natural quantity,
and unvitiated by bile, play their part in
the functions of digestion and assimila-
ton. But the artificial acid resulting
from the inability of the stomach to con-
vert food received by it into s~ustenancc,is
the producer of fiatulence and heartburn
which are the most harrassing symptoms
Of dyspepsia. The best carminative is
Hostetter's Stomach Bitters. Far more
effective is it than carbonate of soda,
magnesia or other alkaline salts, These
invariably weaken the stomach without
producing permanent benefit. No man
or conan chronically dyspeptic, and con
s%equently nervous. can be in possession of
the full measure of vigor allowed by ma
ture. Therefore, invlgorate and regulate
the system, and by so doing protect it
from malaria, rheumatism and other seri-
Gus maladies.

VI bast nun louIistrs
New YORK, April 6.-The returning
base ball pilgrims we're taken on board the
steamer Laura NJ. Starin from the Adri-
attic. The reception committee consisted
of j. J. O'Donohue, John NJ. Ward, j.
w. Spaulding, accompanied by actors,
actresses, base ball enthusiasts and Others
to the number of 200. Much enthusiasm
was manifested on both steamers and the
air rent with the sound of steam whistles
and cheers long continued. All were in
excellent health. The only members of
the party that did not return were Ed.
Williamson and wife, the former of
the Chicago team. He hurt his knee in
a game in Paris and they remain in Lon
don pending his recovery. They will sail
for home about a week hence. On the
way up the river the teams we're greeted
with cheers fom crowds on either shore
until they landed at Twenty-second street
and went to the Fifth Avenue hotel. Tbs
tourists, who have been gone six months
and have travelled $4,000 miles, were en-
thusiastic over their trip and treatment by
the people everywhere. Not one of the
party suffered a days sickness on the
Journey. Financially it Is stated the trip

Russell Harrison Explains.

New YORK, April 6.-Russell Harri-
son makes the following statement rela-
tive to the suit for libel which Col. John
Schuyler Crosby threatened to bring
against him in case Harrison refused to
make a personal apology for a clipping
reprinted from a Buffalo paper, in the
Montana LIRE Stock Journal, published
by a company, of which Harrison was at
the time president, and which article had
been construed to have charged Col.
Crosby with theft of Jewels from a Wash.
ington lady. II am willing that the
Montana Lire Stock Journal shall make
proper retractiOn of the story as pub
llshed. The impression has been given to
the public that | am the editor of the
Lire Stock journal. This is not the
case now, nor was it at the time the story
was printed. 1t seems to me Col. Cros-
by's demand for a personal apology is un.
usual and unreasonable, and hat he
should be satisfied with the same sort of
retraction on the part of the Montana
Lire Stock Journal as seemed to him suf.
ticient from the Buffalo Commercial Ad-
U~ertiser, which first printed the story. and
from which the LiUe Stool: Journal cop.
led it The position | have taken against
identifying myself personally with this
matter will be maintained to the end of
the controversy.

A few miles from the city of London
resides a gentleman and his good wife,
owning and tilling fifty acres of land.
The gentleman has always had great
faith in his cows paying well, but
thought the hens a bill of expense. The
lady, on the other hand, commended that
the hens paid better than the COWS. Ac-
cordingly one spring she determined to
keep books for season and ascertain
the respective merits of both She cred
tied the mems with all eggs laid, and in
teresting indeed was the contest as the
time drew nigh for receiving the check
from the cheese factory. But it came at
last, and behold, the hens were ahead,
and SO it continued throughout the sea-
son.
One hundred hens to three cows, and
as they had decided in the spring that it
would cost about the same to keep each,
the. gentleman was forced to yield the
point and admit hat the hens were most
profitable; and if others would keep an
exact account they would be surprised
at the result, but most farmers do not
give their hens credit for anything ex-
cept what eggs are taken to market. 1t
Is not at all difficult to make hens pay
81 per head per mi if properly cared
for. The writer on one occasion made
50 per head on five dark Brahma hens
after paying all expenses. This, it will
be understood, was per eggs and meat
alone, not for breeding stock, as half q
dollar was the highest price realized for
young birds.-Farmers' Advocate.

CHICAGO, April Ga reliable Wash
ington correspondent sends to his paper
a long story of what is believed to be
nearly an official statement of the future
policy of Harrison's administration. He
declares the internal policy will not be
materially changed, but that a vigorous
foreign policy will be pursued. The first
thing will be to make a strong navy. To
this end appropriations for naval vessels
will be doubled; ocean commerce will be
encouraged, Cuba and Samoa be absorbed
as of more vital interest to us than any one
else, the Nicaragua canal be taken under our
protection and in general the external in
terests of the nation be looked after as
the most necessary thing now to be con
sidered for our future welfare.

Fort DODGE, Ia, April 6.-Every
day adds to Ike seriousness OF the strained
situation of the Des Moines river land
settlers. Numerous parties connected
with the prosecution of settlers have re-
ceived threatening notices and letters to-
day warning them to desist. Chancey
Higman. prosecuting witness in the con-
spiracy cases against settlers, and whose
farm has been seized by them. has re-
ceived the following letter:
"Chdneey Higmdn DEAR SIR. For
the course you have been pursuing and
medling, if you continue, you better make
your peace with God. as you will never
raise a crop where you are. This is suff-
Gent notice to you. Beware, or hell will
be your fate.
(Signed) SETTLERS"
Higman was formerly a member Of the
Settlers union, and they are evidently
afraid he will make public some of their
secrets. The settlers their read
mess to die in defense of their homes. but
say they will sell their lives as dearly as
possible. In view of impending trouble
evictions have been abandoned for the
present,

FarwelI on Political Patronage.

CHICAGO, April 6.-Dispatches from
Washington published here this morning
stated hat Senators Farwell and Cullom
were very much put out at the appoint
ment of John A. Montgomery to be SUI
perintendent OF mails in the Chicago post
| office, because they were not consulted in
the matter. 1t appears the appointment
was made by General Superintendent Bel
and that neither Postmaster General
Wanamaker nor Assistant Postmaster
General Clarkson was consulted about the
matter. Senator Farwell was interviewed
on the subject to day and said he was not
Directing to Mr.. Montgomery at all, and
that he regarded the gentleman in every
way fit for the position. What he com
planned of was that the appointment was
made without he [FarwelD knowing any
thing about it. He thought he should
be consulted about matters relating to ap.
pointments at his own home.
You are reported to have said" said
a reporter, that the present incumbents
in minor positions will be allowed to serve
out their terms"
That is my opinion" replied the sem
ator. Il think that will be the policy OF
the administration"
1T has been reported that the same DIFF
ference is likely to arise between President
Harrison in regard to patronage as
divided the late Senator Conkling and
President Garfield" said the reporter.
II don't think there is much danger of
that, > SAID Senator Farwell. Il think
the president proposes to treat us fairly.
He is a man OF decided opinions; he is
an able, honest, upright, capable good
man, and will make a good president. |
don't think he could be swerved from his
purpose by anybody. He certainly could
not be swerved from what he thought
was right at all"

wind and rain prevailed here to day.
About 9 o'clock the rain, which had been
