The Emperor desires the passage of meas
ure for the reduction of prices of articles of

of Public Works, who was charged with the
preparation OF a bill providing for the erec-
tion of dwellings for wOrkIngmen in every
populous center, has received an imperial
censure, because of the incomplete condition
of his proposals.
1t is the opinion in official circles that the
trouble is due to the restraints placed upon
Maybach by The Minister Of Finance The
Emperor h d a grand scheme, but Minister
| Won Mavbach, on consulting with MIGUEL,
the Prussian Minister of Finance, found
there were obstacles to the investing of more
| than S,Oo0,000 marks in building small tene-
| ments in The suburbs. This incident applies
to the general position of the Government in
regard TO its schemes for costly social re-
forms, and the accompanying projects for
| the abolition of duties On cattle and grain
between Italy, Austria and Germany and
leaves the budget OF the future III a dense
fog.
MIGUEL insists that the Government should
proceed With tie grhalest caution. MiqnePS

AN OFFICIAL CANVASS.
'recinct Registration VIII Be Ovsrha ul ed
by the Registrar,

Precinct Registration VIII Be Ovsrha ul I'd
by the Registrar.
Registrar Smiley presented a large parcel
of defective certificates of regis tration to
the Board of Election Commissioners yes
terday, and explained that unless they are
rectifed the persons whose names they con-
tain would be deprived of their vote. These
certificates are among the many curious
specimens taken in the precincts during the
last few days. The commission ordered the
Registrar to cite each person to appear at
the earliest date possible.
The attention Of the board was also called
to the fact tEat the Governor had neglected
in his proclamation to mention that a vote
must be taken on the constitutional amend
ment relative to city charters. It was de-
cided to include that announcement in the
proclamation TO be issued by the commits
sion.
The Registrar further called attention to
the action OF many preciuct officers in closing
up their booths at meaLtimeS Just when
many desire to register most, and remaining
away an hour or two. The "poor-boX,'
which The CALL took occasion to denounee
yesterday as an outrage OH the public, was
also condemned by the Registrar.
A ward striker named Dougherty, who has
been very conspicuous before the commits
sion of late. expressed the belief that there
had been great frauds practiced during the
precinct registration, and suggested an Off
cial canvass. He proposed that every
person registered in the precincts be cited,
and that the Pavilion be hired in which to
conduct the examination.
After some cat-scratchiug OF an uninter-
esting nature between Commissioners Stroth-
er and OBrien, it was decided to order an
official canvass OF the precinct registration.

The audience which greeted the speakers
of the Reform Democracy at its open-ar
mass meeting on the corner of Powell and
Eddy streets last night was the largest

urated. The spectators displayed the keenest

short speech, in which he alluded TO the
gratifying success which the Reform party is
making in its popular way of reaching the
people. He was followed by DR.. Cleye land,
candidate for Coroner ON the Reform ticket.
This speaker could not find words TO ex-
press his contempt for the political tyrants
who managed to control politics by their
corrupt methods He said that when
member of the Board of Education politi-
clans had made attempts twenty different
times to biibo him in order to secure posi-
tions for their female friends. He declared
that the fight on the side of the Reform party
is contest between filth and cleanliness,
corruption and purity, and honest govern
ment in the interest OF the people against
machiue manipulation Of officers in the in
terest of corporations.
GATOR ON THE TARIFF.
Thomas V. Gator, candidate for Congress,
ascended the wagon platform and spoke on
the issues of the campaign. His remarks
were chiefly devoted to the tariff question,
which lie said is one of the most important
subjects OF the day. He was reformer in
this respect, and did not believe that the

SENSATIONAL TRAGEDY.
Fatal Shooting Afray Between a Man aud
Wcman

QUINCY Qlll, Oct. 1S.-One of the most
sensational shooting affrays that ever oc-
CURED in this ty took place on ono of the
principal business streets this afternoon,
Dan G. Price of Salua, Kans., being fatally
wounded by Miss Lille Booth Of Camp
Point and the young lady being shot by
Price. Accompanied by his brother, Price
was walking down Sixth street soon after
dinner, when Miss Booth crossed the street
and placing the muzzle of large revolver
against his back fired. Prices brother grap-
pied the young woman, and the wounded
man ran into a store, but Immediately re-
TUNED to the sidewalk and shot her down.
Price died soon after the shooting but Miss
Booths wound is not necessary fatal. The
Price and Booth families are among the
most prominent in the county. About a
year ago young Price went to Salina and en-
gagged in business. During the past summer
Miss Booth tolle wed him to Kansas and
commenced proceedings against him for be-
trayal, but he was acquitted and returned to
Quincy. Miss Booth also came back to her
home at Camp Point and the two met to-day
for the first time since the trial.
