MAIL POUCHES STOLEN.
A Valuable bag IL Rihed on the St Paul
Fast Train.

80 La CROSSE, Oct. 20.-A registered mail
pouch was stolen on Friday morning
from the fast mail while enroute from st.
Paul to Milwaukee. Later on the pouch
was found at Brookfeld Juction, rihed of
its contents There is no clue to the rob-
berry and it is not yet ascertained how
much money was in the pouch.
MILWAUKEE, Oct. 20.-At the Milwau-
kee postofiice nothing additional in regard
to the robbery could be learned. The
officials are very reticent and claim to be
unable to tell where the pouch was from or
what its contents we're. Everything
about the matter is in a delightful state
of mystery, the only cold, hard fact being
that the pouch was stolen, sIashed open,
rihed and thrown away by some persons
yet unknown.

Ignorance when the meaning of law is
under con sideration. Villas with the other
democratic campaigners charges in all his
speeches that the republicans forced the
educational issue to the front, in order to
obscure the tariff and other issues. This
charge is ridiculous. The republican lead
ers, with the exception of Governor Hoard
and his friends. would gladly have avoid
ed the issue, even at heavy sacrifice. But
the opponents of the compulsory education
principle forced the issue upon Governor
Hoard by their aggressive fight, and if
the republican party were to nominate
Hoard 1t must accept the issue which op-
ponments had made for him. Up to the
time the republican state convention was
held the republican leaders with the ex-
ceptions named would gladly have escaped
the issue, but they could not.
THAT Hoard will be elected by a ire
mendous majority is foregone conclus-
Ion, and his election will signify that the
people believe The state is supreme in civil
affairs and the public schools must stand
forever. John c. Spooner will be return
ed to the United States senate.
Thlre will be no change in the congress-
ional delegation from the state with the
possible exception of democrat being
sent FROM the Milwaukee district to succeed
Van Schaick. John Mitchell, the demo-
cratic candidate, is making very thorough
canvass, and there is danger of his beat
ing Spencer, the reput lican candidate If
Mitchell is elected the delegation will con-

TARRED AND FEATHERED.
j. Is. Quinn, an ex-Gambler is Visited by
the Fraternity.

CHICAGO, Oct. 20.-A curious assault
was made tonight upon an ex-gambler
named J. b. Quinn. Two men held him
up in dark spot on Lake street on the
edge of Union park, compelled him to
strip to the waist, poured bucket of
liquid tar over the upper portion Of his
body and then added some feathers by
way of ornament. The ASSISTANTS then
knocked him down and kicked him
rendering him unconscious. He was
found By some people strolIing through the
park and the police were notified, but no
trace of the assailants. Quinn has been
posing as reformed gambler writing a
book on gamblers methods. and is sup
posed to have incurred the enmity Of the
fraternity although prominent sporting
men scout the idea Of any such motive of
the provoked attack.

NINE MEN LOST.
The steamer Annie Young Burns on Lake
Michigan.

DETROIT Oct. 20.-Word has just been
received of the burning In Lake Huron off
Lexington NJ CHI, this morning, of the
Lake Superior Transit company's freight
steamer Annie Young. Nine lives are
reported to have been lost by the upset
ting of small boat.
PoRT HURON, Mich, Oct. 90 49, The
vessel caught fire off Lexington in Lake
Huron about 9:45 this morning. and
nine members of the crew who tried to
escape in small boat are supposed to
be drowned There was terrific sea
running at the time the fire broke out.
Seeing that there was no hope OF saving
the barge the captain had the men lower
the boats. One OF the boats was missed In
the heavy sea, but the others were picked
up by the steam barge William Edwards,
and brought here Capt. Hugh Miller
was in charge of the Annie Young.
He and his two engineers were in
the rescued party, and they chartered the
tug Kittie faight and have gone back
to where the burning barge was aban-
doned to look for the missing small
boat and its crew of nine men. The Annie
Young left Port Huron at 6 o'clock this
morning with cargo of coal and general
merchandise for Escanaba and Gladstone.
She was owned by the Lake Superior
Transit company of Erie, Pa, and was
built in 1862 The steamer was mass of
flames when Capt Miller and the crew
with him pulled away from her, and she
undoubtedly went to the bottom.
The Young was built in 1873, and for

Troubles by Laying Hand
on Himself.
He Sends a Bullet Through His Brain
Which Has Fatal
Effect.
Our POstoiiice is Emblaz0ned With
the Name of the Able
Architect.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 20.-A. b. Mutlet,
one of the best known architects of this
city, and for years supervising architect of
the treasury department. shot and killed
himself this evening at his residence He
has been in poor health for long time,
suffering from rhematical and other COM
plants, but it is thought that. financial
trouble was the chief cause of Mullett S
act.
DR. T. J. Murphy, the surgeon in charge
of the Columbia hospital, who Tor many
years has been Mullett's family physician,
made a statement of the circumstances of
the shooting, substantially as follows
About clock he called at the house to
see Mrs. Mullett, who was slightly
indisposed. After prescribing for
Mrs. Muett the doctor took leave and
went to his office just across the street. He
had been there but short time when d
son of Mr.. Mullett came over and asked
him to come to the house Immediately
He hurried back in response to
the summons and found Mullett
lying across the bed in his
sleeping apartment and was partially dis
robed. He WIS unconscious and bleeding
profusely. The doctor made hasty ex-
animation and found that the blood came
from wound about two inches above the
right ear. The dying man gave three or
four gasps and expired within seven min
utes after the wound had been inflicted.
When the doctor first entered the room
he found Mrs Mullett lying by the side
OF the body of her wounded husband
weeping bit terly with her arms thrown
around his neck. The doc
tor moved her gently from the
room and then gave his attention
to her husband. Later in the evening the
coroner was summoned and after an exam
nation of the body gave verdict of death
from suicide, due to melancholia, Mr.
Mullett was Sc years old and very
well known. He designed many of
the public buildings that have
been erected in different cities.
among them being the New York city post
Office and the imposing state, war and
navy department building in this city.
Mr.. MulIett had a severe case of the grip
last winter from which he still suffered.
For the past few months he had been at
times Respondent and gloomy.
The name of A. b. Mullett is engraved
on the corner stone of the postofice build
ing in this city and many masons and
laborers here viii remember him as the

LIVERPOOL, Oct. 20.-Mr. Gladstone,
accompanied by his wife, left Liverpool
today for Scotland where he goes to
make an oratorical tour of Midlothian. At
Wigan 400 persons had gathered, who
loudly cheer ed the great statesman's brief
remarks made during the momentary stop
of the train. Mr.. Gladstone assured his
hearers that they could rest assured that
old Midlothian would know what to do to
secure the demolition of the tory party.
At Preston many hundreds of the ex-
premiers admirers had assembled to do

forded for speech-making. When Car

TARIFF AND TOBACCO.
Effects of the Mckinley Bill on the Nico-
tine Industry

The tariff on stemmed leaf suitable for
cigar wrappers has been raised from 81 to
81. rs pound Free trade papers have
distorted this fact into a statement that
the price of cigars will be greatly ncreas-
anybody. How much truth there is in
such campaign talk can be seen from a
case here given.
Last spring Buffalo cigar maker, real
izing that the republican party would
keep its promise to revise the tariffs, and
that the duties on tobacco would be IN
creased, planted two acres of land between
Eden Valley and Hamburg with Connect
cut broad-eaf as an experiment. He be-
lieved the government would protect his
venture. The crop has just been cut, and
vii! not only equal the Connecticut leaf in
texture and color, but large part of ii
gives promise, it is said, of developing the
peculiar shade and bright brown spots for
which the Sumatra wrapper is so highly
priced.
Last spring the land which produced
this crop could have been had for 500 an
acre. Now not an acre can be bought
anywhere around for less than $3.50. The
owner of the crop mentioned received al
offer of $3.50 for it DIS it stood, but he de
clined it. As a result of these prices, al
least forty acres will be set out next spring
and number of Hamburg's leading bust
ness men talk of forminga stock company
and building big tobacco factory, 1t is
interesting to note that one of the mer
who propose to profit by this direct effect
of the Mckinley bill is Thomas l.. Bunting
the ardent free trader who is the demo
cratic candidate for congress in the Thirty
third district.
So much for the producers side of the
new tobacco tariff effects. The consum-
er's side is that it promises to develop a
| homegrown leaf the equal in every way
of the Sumatra leaf which has been popu-
| lar mainly because of its color I'm
prejudiced smokers testify that the flavor
| of the American leaf is as good as that of
the imported article, and that when the
latter goes out of use, men will wonder
why they EVER preferred it.
After May all taxes on tobacco dealers
will be repealed, and on Jam all internal
taxes on smoking and manufactured to-
bacco will be reduced to cents pound,
while ''all provisions of the statues inn
posing restrictions of any kind whatso-
ever upon farmers and growers of tobacco
are repealed. This means cheaper cigars
or better ones for the money.
So what does this hue-and-cry about the
| pri ,e of cigars under tie Mckinley act
| amount to- Just this, cigars of the same
! quality as-ean- now be bought fer l9-eents,
for instance, will either be made cheaper
or will be made larger. Five-cent cigars
will in the future be found good enough
for the man who has always paid twenty
five cents for three weeds. Havana cigars
are Injuries, pure and simple. The tariff
on them has been raised, as it should have
been, but the laboring man doesn't care a
continental The price of his tabacco has
been reduced, and the farmer will make
more money out of his tobacco crops thad
before and more money ont of his farm
because he has turned his attention to to-
bacco raising.

WILL SWING IN THE AIR.
The Murderers of Chief Hennessey are BE
ing Corralled.

New ORLEANS, Oct. 20.-Tony Nal
ranga and Vincento Carruso, arrested a
few days ago and released, were arrested
again today and committed to the parish
prise charged with being aces
series to tie assassination of Chief
of Police Hennessey. From what
can be learned there is hardly any doubt
but that the FIVE men who committed the
crime and the villanous brains that gave
birth to the foul plot are among those
now in Jail. One or two more of the con-
spirators are still at large, but it is
only a question of time before they too
will be behind the bars, and it is safe to
say that when the trial comes up, the
police will be able to produce sufficient IN
formation to send the entire gang to the
gallows.
