COLUMBUS, Ohio, July 1S.-James
Larney is an Indian serving a ten years
sentence in the penitentiary here for man
slaughter committed in the Indian Ter
ritory. About 4 O'Clock he entered the
idle house with a hand ak, which he had
stolen from one of the neighboring shops,
and before the guard could see what was
going TO happen he had used the AK on
several Of the prisoners with terrible
effect. The men in the idle house we're
sitting about reading or sleeping in an
unconcerned way. and the action OF the
Indian threw them into a panic. The
first intimation had OF the trouble was
hearing the cries Kill him, kill him.
and seeing from the hospital door the men
as they fled from the place. The Indian
was seen going across the yard with the
az under his coat, making for the cell
block. AS he was about half way to the
door a colored man threw a heavy piece
of stone at his head, but the Indian
lodged and went on. Deputy Warden
Porter entered the yard at this time aud
took steps to quell the disturbance and ex-
citement. He first sent the men back TO
their places and then went to disarm the
Indian. Larney was found in the hall
leading to his cell and was forced to enter
it at the point of a revolver. The deputy
closed the dosr and then secured a line OF
hire hose, which was passed in through
the window. The Indian refusing to give
up the Ak, the water was turned on and
the aborigine given a very heavy ducking.
de was then given a few minutes rest and
asked to give up the ak. He refused and
again the deputy turned the water into
the cell. So long was it kept in the cell
that the Indian could not stand up under
il. Getting him near the door Deputy
Porter seized the hand holding the ak
and with the assistance of the prisoners
near by som had tie Indian outside of the
stonef floor, His feet were quickly tied,
after which he was searched and then
taken to the insane department, where he
was locked in a cell. In the hospital
there were some sickening sights. Jacob
Gross, a colored prisoner from Scioto
county, had received the most severe
injury. His head was cut open on the
back, and physicians took a number of
spllnters of bone from the wound. Michael
O'Harra was cut on the top of the head,
a painful but not serious injury. Ted
Cunningham was also cut on top of the
head. Charles Greeves. an aged man,
who had a broken shoulder, was thrown
against the wall by the Indian. and the
bones fractured again. The Indian is
thought to have been insane.

Admrral Lnthnm Interv,ewed.

VICTORIA. B. c., July ls.-The Brit.
ish gunboat Warspite, the flagship of the
North Pacific squa Iron, with Rear Admiral
Latham aboard, arrived here yesterday.
The admiral was interviewed in regard 10
the movement of war ships to protect
Canadian vessels in Behring sea. The
admiral has not yet had an opportunity
t o complete the perusal OF the mass Of
correspondence that awaited him here,
but stated emphatically that he had as
yet received no instructions to send any
of the feet to the North TO protect Brit
ish vessels from seizure by American cut
tiers or retake any that might be seized in
Behring sea. He considered the matter
principally, from what he read of it In
the press. purely one for diplomatic
negotiations. He had yet to learn what
new phase had presented itself that would
suggest the possibility Of warships being
required to take a hand in the adjustment
of ths difficulty.

NEW YoRK, July lS.-There has been
an unusual and increased activity at the
custom house within the last few weeks,
caused by the desire of importers to take
advantage of the short time remaining
before the LIST of August, when the
Mckinley customs administrative bill
takes effect. The operations of the new
law will have the effect of virtually in
creasing the duties on sugar, tobacco and
various other articles. Consequently there
has been a large increase in the i'm
portations of merchandise affected by the
bill by importers, who are anxious to lay
10 as much as possible before the new law
is enforced. Importers Of tin plate,
fearing the speedy passage of the act
imposing an increasing duty of 81 % per
case are also laying in a supply, while i'm
porting merchants In other lines. fearful
Of an advance In the tariff affecting their
specialties, have increased their orders.

Merely a low price is not an evidence of
cheapness in merchandise, and quotations
of clothing prices are of all things most
deceptive. We do not keep what is called
cheap clothing. We always have some
garments for men and boys at low prices;
but we get them BY marking down the
broken lots and slow selling lots of good
quality. These bargain garments adver-
tise themselves. If you want a serviceabIe
Overcoat, Suit or odd Coat, Vest or pair
of Trousers for very little money, we can
usually supply much better value than
the price asked would buy 10 the regular
way Most people, however, want the
best clothes they can afford to wear, and
our rightly-made garments are intended
to supplant the custom work. Therefore
you cannot judge of the prices without
seeing the clothes.
