HIS MIND GAVE WAY.
One OF the Sioux COMMISSIONS Clerks
Driven Insane by Excitement.

One & the Sioux Commissions Clerks
Driven Insane by Excitement
CHICAGO, H., August 10.-tSpecial to THE
BEE. The exciting scenes and danger to
the Sioux commission, which Sitting Bull
created in his efforts to prevent the signing
of the treaty which has Just been concluded,
drove one of the commissions clerks into
violent insanity. The young man is Everett
Corbin, a brother Of Lieutenant Colonel II.
G. Corbiu, attached to General Crooks
headquarters in Chicago. He is now at
large, having escaped from DR.. Gray's sani-
tarium in North Evanston. With the cum
ming of q mailman he pretended that he was
quite well, aud the attendant beng
thrown off his guard, left Corbin for a few
minutes last Friday while the latter was
playing on a piano. Corpin no sooner found
himself alone than he ran across the room
and jumped from a second story window.
Since that moment no TRACE Of him can be
found, although William Pinke rton has a
large force of detectives on the search and
all the postmasters and county officers, as
well as the Chicago police nave been notified
TO look out for him.
Corbin is very violent at times. The day
before he escaped he struck an attendant a
heavy blow with a stick. 1t is feared that
he will injure or kill some one in his wander.
ngs, or that he may commit suicide. Cor
bin had been attending Harvard college for
two years and had studied so hard that he
had undermined his health. On the recon-
mendation of a physician, Lieutenant
Colonel Corbin took him to Cali
fornia, and in May last got him
attached to the Sioux commission as a clerk.
About six weeks ago, when the excitement
was high from the menaces Of Sitting Bull
and his band, Corbin suddenly became a
raving maniac. He was started for Chicago
in charge of two men, escaping from them
twice before reaching here. Corbin has been
raving ever since his confinement of the
glory and honor he could attain by joining
the commission and returning home with
them. This idea was uppermost in his mind,
and it is thought he has started westward to
the Sioux reservation. He is undoubtedly
walking, as he has no money.

EMrOnc From Berlin.

lCopWfght, 1889, by NetD York associated Press,
BERLIN, August 10.-Among the first
fortunate fruits of England's attachment to
the triple alliance is the cessation of tho
Servo Bulgarian war preparations and the
simultaneous suspension OF the Cretan rising.
The swiftness OF the combined diplomatic
action of England, Germany, Austria and
Italy upon the Cretan question as pros
pounded by the Greek note to the powers is
the result of a previous understanding OF
the powers with Turkey on united action in
the east. The Crock note, which threatened
an intervention in Crete, inspired as it was
by Russia, met with q decisive response
from the four powers within two days.
A semi-oficial article in the Journal
de st. Petersburg admits the prompti-
tude of the decision of the powers has
prevented the movement from ASSUMING pro-
portions which would menace the peace Of
Europe. These diplomatic successes inspire
the foreign office here with brighter hopes Of
drawing Spain into the league. Tn Italian
government has been entrusted with car
rying on negotiations at Madrid and sends
Signor Cialdini as special envoy. If Signor
Cialdini succeeds IN perfecting an arrange.
ment similar to that with England Prince
Bismarck will have so ringed France with q
circle of powers hostile to the war of re-
venge as to guarantee permanent peace and
u probable reduction in European arma-
ments.
Emperor William and Prince Henry ar.
rived at Withelmhaven this afternoon, and
Immediately proceeded by a special train to
Berlin. Emperor Francis J~oseph's arrival is
timed for Monday at 4 p. IN. The ceremonial
Of the reception will be similar to that of
King Humbert's, although he has asked on
account of his recent affection a very quiet
welcome. Popular curiosity is not excited
over the visit, public interest being conferred
in the czar's coming, which is now fixed for
the Goth inst. 1t is doubtful if tho car will
enter Berlin, although he will stay four
days in Potsdam.
The Kreuz Zeitung, referring to the state
Inent that General Boulanger had used the
secret fund to buy the right to inspect the
papers OF the military attaches of the Ger.
man legation. says Colonel Villaume, while
attache at Paris, caught a clerk IN the act OF
copying such documents.
Delegates from 1853 mines met at Bochum
to-day and decided to send representatives
to the Silesian mines to arrange for con-
certed action. The authorities disfavor the
coalition, but the project promises to succeed.
The chiefs of the Bavarian socialists have
called a general assembly at Nuremburg ia

The massachusetts Rifle Team Back
From British Conquests.
New YORK, August 10.-lSpecial Telegram
to THE BEE. The Massachusetts volun-
teer militia rife team, whose victories over
the Briuishers are a matter of no small
pride to American rifemen, arrived on the
steamer City of Chicago, which reached
quarantine at s O'Clock yesterday and lay
there last night. The steamer was covered
with flags and bunting, and seven of the
teams champion pennants were flying from
the rigging.
Major Frost, financial editor of the Boston
Globe, captain and organizer of the team,
said: "Our trip has been an unqualified
success. think we have learned much that
will be of advantage to us in America. We
were received everywhere with the greatest
cordlality. The steamer was "a day late in
Liverpool and our first match was
shot without practice. Some of the
best men in England were shooting
against US on a familiar range,
while our men still felt the roll of the ship
and had to aim at targets dancing about in
the most grotesque fashion. Still we won
with a margin Of fifty points. The weather
was wretched and good scores out of the
question. Considering that the English tar
get is four inches less in diameter than
the American, our team did better
shooting than when we WOE the national
championship at Creedmore in 1887. Our
score of 1884 on an English target was equiv
alent to about 100 on the American target.
The great match Of the series was with the
South London club, the senior rifle organiza.
ton of the metropolis. The club is made up
of crack shots from all sources. All of them
have national regulations. We won with a
score of 1908 to 1925. OF Individual records,
Lieutenant Bumstead got 100 out of 105, the
biggest score made in England; Sergeant
Doyle and Corporal Huddeson scored 81, and
Major Human SO. l attribute our success or
a large part of it to the fact that our men all
knew each other intimately and had conf
dence in each others ability to defeat class
shooting under all circumstances The only
prize was reputation and to us who had won
in seven successive championship contests
hat meant everything.

CHICAGO, August 10.-When Commander
w. A. Warner, of the G.. A. X. arrived in
the city this morning with the returning
Sioux Indian commission, he was at once
visited by large numbers of the Grand
Army, members who were anxious to ascer-
tain his views regarding the national en-
campment at Milwaukee and his attitude in
relation TO the recent meeting of department
commanders in this city. He says:
~ have repeatedly stated that the railroad
rates are unjust and inexcusable. The en-
campment will be a large one, but Of course
the attendance will not be as large nearly, as
1t would have been. General Martin had a

than the commandments certainly
concede to them the same honesty of purpose
and desire for the good and welfare of the

comrades have advised a change of the en-
campment to some other place. Such action

The Feeling at Liverpool.

LIVERPOOL, August 10.-lNew York Herald
Cable-Special to THE BEE. There has been
a wonderful abatement of excitement over
the Maybrick verdict, due doubtless in a
measure to the impression that the home
secretary will exercise his prerogative and
commute the sentence. Mrs. Maybrick is
somewhat better to-day, though she has by
no means recovered from her prostration.
The prisoners solicitors receive shoals
of letters by every post ASKING for
forms Of the petition. Several memorials
are being signed in Liverpool, the latest and
perhaps most important being from the med
ical profession, many of the signers being
among those who were present at the trials.
A mass meeting has been called for Mon
day evening.
A juror who has been interviewed says
that three of them were in favor of a verdict
of not guilty, until the prisoner made her
statement.

A TAIL-iEND COLLISIO ".
An Orleans. Neb., Man Killed and q
Brakeman Injured.

ST. JOSEPH, Mo-, August 10.-lSpecial Tele-
gram to The BEE. l-This morning there was
a serious tail-end collision on the Kansas
City, st. Joe & Council Bluffs road just north
of the Francis street depot, il this city. A
Burlington & Missouri freight train loaded
with corn, in two sections, was coming south,
and the first section was stopped by a heavy
grade, the second section running into it.
One engine was completely demolished and
thrown twelve feet from the track. The
way car was smashed to pieces. A brake
man had a leg broke j. c.. Haskins, of
Orleans, Neb., was killed instantly. He had
a valise containing a KIT of barbers' tools.
The sections contained forty cars each.
Twenty-Five ofthese were wrecked and the
shelled corn scattered along the track. The
regular passenger trains between Kansas
City and Omaha went around by way Of

by the evidence. AScotch jury would prob
ably have returned a verdict OF not proven"
Belfast News: 1.-THE memorial from the
bar and the medical profession and the gen
eral surprise with which the verdict has
been received afford grave cause for further
inquiry. To be satisfied of Mrs. Maybrick's
innocence is impossible, but having regard
to the doubts raised in the case 1t 10 almost
equally impossible to be satisfied Of her
guilt"
Cork Examiner: "No one can assert that
an overwhelming case has been made out.
The whole case, indeed, shows once more
the great desirability of a court of appeal in
capital cases."
A number of other opinions insist upon the
necessity of a court of appeals. A few claim
that the evidence was insufficient to convict.
None claim the woman TO be innocent.

edy was believed to be in the nature of a

fetal to old people especially. He denounced
the foolish story that 1T was something that
was going to prolong life indefinitely, or re-
store old people to youth. Neither he nor

The McLead Murder Case.

DEADwooD, Oak, August 10. Especial
Telegram to THE BEE. The coroner's
jury in the McLead murder case failed TO
hold the suspects, for the reason that they
thought there was not sufficient evidence to
convict. The prosecuting attorney had
made compliant. Tit parties will be ar
rested and the case go before the grand jury,
now in session. Great excitement prevails
In the neighborhood of the murder. The
body of McLead was burned beyond recog-
milton. A butchers knife was found under
the body. The fire was caused by the explo-
sion of a coal oil can, and burned so rapidly
as to prevent assistance.

commit murder. A memorial was gotten up
and signed by seventy-eight members of par
lament. The Pail Mall Gazette decided
the matter boldly. Lipski, it said, must not
be hung. Lipski could not be hanged. The
whole country was agitated. In the midst
OF all this hub-bub the convict most migrate
fully went back on his editorial friend and
made a free and full confession of his crime,
describing how he had parbarously killed
the poor woman, who bad done him no
harm. The Pail Mall Gazette saw HIM exc
cuted with delight. "He has been hanged"
it wrote. Stew criminals ever went
TO the gallows who better de-
served their fate" And this
after the widest denunciations of Matthews
and all ibis consorts, Of absolute proof that
Lipski was innocent. But, although he
might have murdered the woman, he need
not have confessed it, and thus shaken the
institution of trial by newspaper. Perhaps
the Pail Mall Gazette, the seventy.eight
members Of parliament and all the rest of
them forget this little incident. But we
may pretty safely assume that the home
secretary has not done so. He
might have yielded to popular
clamor at the very moment Lipski was
describing the Incidents of the murder. /
am not suggesting any comparison between
Lipski and Mrs. Maybrick, but the home
secretary must remember when precisely
the same kind of pressure was brought to
bear upon him as that which is beirg APP
piled now. He will be TEMPTED to put his
faith in the jury, who heard all the evidence,
who marked the demeanor of the witnesses,
and VINO weighed every word, rather than the
student of that evidence, who, per haps, APP
proach it with q feeling strongly wrought
up in favor of the prisoner.
1t may be taken for granted,
in n word, that if Justice Stephens does not
interfere the law will take its course.
In the case of DIR. Lamson, also an Amer
lean, a determined effort was made to obtain
a reversal of the sentence, and a respite was
actually secured on the representation or at
the request of the United States minister,
but the further evidence in his favor that
was promised came to nothing. Lamson
was executed and no one now thinks his SEN
tence was unjust. 1t may seem hard, hearted
to recall these facts just now, but
1t is important that your readers
shall understand that these are the very
facts which must necessarily nave some
weight in reference to the new trial that is
gong on.
AT the same time, 1 believe, everybody
would be secretly glad if any circumstance
came to light which would have the effect of
causing the release Of Mrs. Maybrick. She
spoke in her statement of some evidence
whith had been kept back. Where is that
evidenced Would it not be more to her pur-
pose for hor friends to produce it than to
stand scolding the Judge, jury and home
secretaryi
