 of American Tourists,
DRAGGED TO JAIL AND ABUSED.
The Case to be Laid Before Secretary oj
 State Blaine.

Five Days In a Filthy Cell Swarmins with Notwithstanding to Eat but Cruel and
 Blask Breud - Finally Released by a
 Judge Who Said that the Arrest was a
 Mistake.
 BALTIMORE, Oct. 4.-Mr Charles E.. Coates, .)r., of this city. graduate of the Johns Hopkins University, will go to Washington in a day or two to lay before Secretary Blaine complaint of outragos inflicted upon him while tray cling in Switzerland last summer
 Mir. Coates has been completing his studies ill Germany, and last August, in company with Mir. Geo. D. Mumford, of New York. was making tour of Switzerland. They journeyed to Berne, and on the train they met a couple of Americans who did not speak German. When Berne was reached all four took carriage drive about the city and re- turned to the depot, took dinner in the restaurant and went out on the plat, form to wait for the train for Inter- laken.
 While standing quietly there Mr. Coates heard his name called. and, look, ing up, saw his acquain tances of tho morning being escorted down the plat. form by an officer. As they passed him one of them said: Mir. Coates, what is the matt erwith the fellow? He must bo drunk
 Knowing they spoke uo German, ho asked the officer what he wanted, but was simply told to ''come along too.''
 MT. Mumford was arrested at the same time, and the four were taken in. to small room. with glass door open ing upon the platform. There they were kept for two hours for the travel ing public to look at.
 The detective who made the arrest would not give any reason for his action. Then they were taken to police head quarters and separated. MT. Coates was taken before the Justice, searched, questioned and sent to prison. No charges werc made against him; he had been given no opportunity to defend himself and they would not let him make statement. He had with him a letter of credit. passport, a students card from Heidelberg, private letters and bills of lading on goods shipped to London and considerable money. Tho cell he was given was very filthy and dark and swarminy with ye1min. He was kept three days on prison fare, gruel and black bread, in solitary con- finement, all the while ignorant of the charges against him or when he would be examined.
 At the end of the fifth day he was re- leased with an apology and was told it was all mistake. MT. Coates and Mr. Mumford then went to see the Judgo who was to have tried them. He agreed that 1t was an outrage, and that they were entitled to damages, which, how ever, would have to be awarded by the Federal Court.

The Recorder of Wi!iiamsport is Not Frightened by Legal Proceedings.


 Frightened by Legal Proceedings.
 WILLIAMsPonr, Pa, Oct. An appli- cation was made to Attorney General Kirkpatrick yesterday by the citizens of this city, through their attorney, Hon. Henry W. Watson, for a writ of quo warranto citing Recorder James Den worth into court to show bv what au- thority he held the office of Recorder and performed the duties of the said office.
 MT. Denworth was elected Recorder, but it is alleged that the act of the As sembly providing for the election of such officer is unconstitutional, Judge Simonton having so decided in the cases of the recorders of Titusville, Bradford and other cities. Col. Henry c. Parsons appeared for MT. Denworth.
 After the argument the Attorney General said 1t was undoubtedly the fact that there was no auth ority for the office, and that he would issue the writ next week unless it was understood that Denworth would not exercise any of the duties of the office. It is under stood that Denworth has refused to con- sent to this and tho writ will be issued as indicated by the Attorney. General.

Japanese Women.

In Japan the women have taken
kindly and quickly to the foreign meth
ods of introduction, and prove them
selves faithful and intelligent students.
They show great deal of ability in
the hospitals and training schools for
nurses, and much quickness in learn
ing, as we'll as fondness for whatever
they undertake to study. A Japanese
woman's education formerly consisted
of strict and thorough drilling in all
the rules of etiquette, in learning to
play on the koto and samisen, and in
arranging bouquets; they were also
taught, those of the upper and middle
classes, to read ard write the common
language in the hirakana or simple
running characters, instead of the
square characters of the classic Ian
guage. All newspapers, novels and
plays are written in the hirakana, and
in Japan, as we'll as in other countries.
women are great novel readers. There
have been literary women in Japan,
women who have written dramas, po-
ems. and novels, Us Well as those who
read them. The women of Japan hope
eventually to attain a position equal in
consideration to that of American wo-
men. And since the wife Of the
Japanese Minister OF Washington has
been able to learn the English Ian
guage in one year 10 that she speaks
it fluently it shows what Japanese
woman can do.

Old Sitting Bull himself is party to
this great deal made by his people with
the Government of the United States,
whereby it is expected the Sioux will
part with II, 900, 900 acres of their land,
and will receive in payment therefor the
modest little sum of $14, 900. Sit
ting Bull with the learning of the arts of
peace has learned the fact that one hun
dred cents make one dollar, and that
dollar may be as valuable to a red-faced
man as to pale-faced child of civiliza-
ton. He and other leading men of his
nation have discovered that the white
man has IN eye to good quality of real
estate, and little versed. as they were in
agricultural pursuits they realized that
the land in question, which lies between
the Missouri and the Black Hills, which
they did not give up in the centennial
year of 1876, was strip of property.
which the newer comers to this conti-
nent regarded with eyes of greedy long
ing. Doubtless, too, it came to the not
quick apprehension of the Sioux gentry
that unoccupied land is not as plentiful
as of yore, and that they would not
