REBELLIOUs RUSSIANS.
The Closing OF the Universities
Swells the Popular Discomfort.

LONDON, March 4.-The absolute Sc
crecy observed by the authorities at st.
Petersburg in regard to the condition of
the czar has left the way clear for
flood of rumors of the most diversified,
and in many cases the most improbable
character. Not only is secrecy MAIN
tanned in the matter of permitting re-
ports to go abroad, but the same degree
of popular ignorance concerning his
majesty prevails in st. Petersburg,
where the people are even forbidden to
indulge in public speculation on this
subject. 1t is permitted to be known.
however, that intense excitement exists
in the Russian capital, and that
it is on the increase. The clos
ing of the universities has Swelled
the popular discomfort by the
realization that such action has prac-
tically ruined the future careers of
deprivation of the ensuing years course
in the institution, from which they are
debarred. will be compelled to devote
themselves to other pursuits, if, indeed,
the enforced leisure does not lead them
into dangerous paths. Discomfort on
this account has spread among hun
dreds of thousands who would other
wise be content to let things drift along
in the old way. As if to divert popular
opinion from the unsettled state of af-
fairs at home, the Novoe Vremya urges
that more attention be paid by the gov
ernment to affairs in Afghanistan and
India, aud warns the government to he
ware of British intrigues in the former
territory, which 1t believes are already
in progress.

HEALY VIII EWASH
Commander of the Bear Little
Short of an Angel.

WASHINGTON, April 4.-'The report of
the special committee appointed by
Secretary Window to investigate the
charges of cruelty and ..intoxication
made against Capt. M. A. Healy, COM
mander of the revenue steamer Bear,
was received at the treasury depart
ment to-day and was referred to Capt.
Shepard, chief of the revenue marine
division, for review. The committee
consisted of T. q. Phelps, collector of
customs at San Francisco; j. W. White,
captain U. S. r. NJ, and P. N. Bail
hache, U. S. M. 81. S., and the investi-
CATION was made at SaE Francisco. The
committee find that the conduct OF
Capt. Healy in furnishing the three sea-
men from the bark Esteha was justifi-
able under the circumstances. the evil
dence showing that they were mutinous
and insubordinate and that Capt. Healy
punished them only after every other
effort to restore order had failed. In
gard to the "tricing up" of several of
the crew of the bark Wanderer, the
committee reports that the evidence
showed that the men were mutinous:
that the vessel was in an exposed condi-
ton, and that all reasonable efforts were
used to persuade the men to resume
their duties, and that they refused to
do so; that there were no courts OF
peace officers within reach, and that
therefore the punishment of the crew
as ''dernier resort to suppress the
mutiny was justifabe. The committee
finds the charge of drunkenness wholly
unsustained, and says: ''The testi
monv goes to show that Capt. Healy had
been particularly intelligent. Jealous
and efficient officer in the discharge of
his difficult and perilous duties in the
Arctic; that he is humane and kind to
his men. and to shipwrecked sailors and
unfortunates whom he has relieved and
who have been in many instances
thrown upon his personal hOunsy."

An Italian Who Protected His
Wife's Honor Acquitted.

UTICA, N. Y, April 4.-Early one
morning last December James ellison. a
Young man residing with his parents in
Rome, burst in the door of his fathers
house, shouted to his mother that he
was shot and fell dead at her feet. She
had been watching for him all night,
and moment before his abrupt en-
trance had heard pistol shot. Michael
CibO, an Italian living near. was ar
rested for the murder of ellison and in
dicted for manslaughter in the first de-
gree. For this Offense he has been on
trial at Rome all this week. The trial
developed the fact that Gibson had
twice attempted to gain admittance to
Cibo's house while the latter was. away
and while Mrs. Cibo was there with her
little children. On the morning OF the
murder, he repeated the attempt, and
had raised the bedroom window from
the outside and caught the woman by
the arm as she got out of bed and was
trying to pull her out of the window.
Z Cibo was at home on this occasion, and,
after calling on ellison to desist and re-
ceiving curses in response, shot over
his wife's shoulder with the result
stated above. The case was given to
the jury last night, and this morning
verdict of not guilty was returned.
When the verdict of the jury was inter-
preted to the Italian his demonstra-
tiOns of Joy were so great that 1t was
thought he had become insane.

INJUSTICE TO TaE POOR.
McKinley's Sugar Schedule De.
nOunced by an EXpert.

WASHINGTON, d. c., April 4.-Henry
A. Brown. Of Massachusetts, the noted
sugar tariff expert, to-day addressed a
strong letter to the ways and means
committee, and to the senate finance
committee and congress at large, in
which he severely criticiseS the "vagar-
les of the ad valOrem sugar tariff sched-
ule" proposed by the Republican ma
jority of the house ways and means
committee. Mr.. Brown claims that the
classifications in the present sugar tariff
are reasonably correct, and that raising
the color line from 13 to 16 d. S. is play
ing into the hands of foreign producers
of sugar and American refiners. as
we'll as the sugar trust people.
He also claims that under the
proposed ad valorem schedule, low
grades of Mw sugar will not be sent to
this market, but will'be worked into
higher grades, and therefore the poorer
classes will be deprived of cheap, pure
refined sugar, and be compelled to buy
expensive refined sugar, or put up with
yellow refined sugar adulterated with
glucose. He further claims that the ad
valorem bill will increase false invoic-
ing and under valuation frauds, and
that a European war, a short foreign
sugar crop or other untOward events
may at any time double or treble the
duty. Sugar, he says, costs the most
when protection is greatest, and vice
versa. the least when it is the least pro-
tected; but the refners and the sugar
trust people can operate with free
sugar as readily as with dutiable sugar.
and regulate their output and prices
to suit themselves in either case. Mr..
Brown, in his letter, officially compares
the corn crops of the West, which aver
aged S8.93 per acre in 1887, to the sugar
beet root crops. which averaged $3.50
per acre the same year, and shows by
official figures that the consumption of
imported and domestic sugar in this
country for the fiscal year ended June
80, 1889, was 3,65S. 24,O3O pounds, or
81 l6-1O0 pounds per capita. of which
there was produced in the United States
16 63-100 per cent. The ad valorem
sugar schedule he characterizes as
bill to increase under valuation frauds,
encourage sugar monopolists at home
and abroad. destroy our sugar indus
tries, Cypress consumers and perpetuate
an international direct tax.

The Leader of the Oklahoma
Boomers Shot.
OKLAHOMA CITY, April 4.-Capt. w.
l.. Couch, the leader of the Oklahoma
boomers and ex-mayor, was shot this
afternoon by j. G. Adams. The bullet
entered the left leg just below the knee,
and came out in front. Both bones in
front were broken; and, though ampu-
tation of the limb may not be necessary,
the captain is crippled for life. Capt.
Couch was contestant for valuable
claim adjoining the city on the west, on
which Adams has the filing. This aft
ernoon he and his son began to set posts
for fence, and, while at work, were ap-
preached by Adams, who ordered them
to desist. A quarrel ensued, and the
shooting followed. There are two or
three versions of the shooting. but the
one that seems to have the color of truth
is that Couch took hold of Adams, dis
armed him of his pistol and discharged
it at him, the entire load of the revolver:
Adams retr6ated to his house, procured
his Winchester rifle. and, advancing to
within 200 yards of Couch, fired at him.
Adams then SWOre out a warrant for the
arrest of Couch and sou, while on be-
half of the latter warrant was sworn
out for Adams arrest. He gave bail Ill
the sum of $1,000 and tomorrow was set
for the preliminary hearing.

Sensational Attempt to Assassin
ate an Empire Statesman.
MOUNT VERNON, N. Y. April A.
Much excitement prevailed in this
village this morning over the announce
ment that bold attempt has been made
to assassinate f. w. Chivvs, well
known citizen of Mount Vernon, who
was member of the late dry goods
firm of Conkling & Chivyis at Sixth
avenue and Twenty-third street, New
York. The most sensational reports
were circulated regarding the shooting,
and it was said that MIR. Chivvis had
been shot down on the highway for the
known that he always wore valu-
able diamonds. On investigation it
was learned that Mr.. Chivvis,
accompanied by Frank Wright, princi-'
pal of public school in New York, and
Brewster Smith, the well-known car
riage builder of New York, were out to
dinner last night, and that the shooting
occurred while tney were returning
home Mr.. Chivvis' residence is in that
part of Mount Vernon known as Ches-
ter Hill. The three men evidently were
in merry mood, and il is reported that
Mr.. ChivviS was wounded while sky
larking with his companions. This,
however. is not admitted by any OF the
three men. Mr.. Chivvis himself says
that he was shot Oh account of
being mistaken for burglar
while attempting to enter house
adjoining his own residence by
mistake. The persons who know the
exact facts of the shooting are reticent.
Mr.. Chivvis was fired at twice, and one
bullet entered his right breast and
passed around the ribs to the back,
where it was extracted. The other bni-
let passed through Mr. Chivvis' cloth
ing. As near as can be learned the
shooting occurred at 2:30 "a. m. to-day.
Mr.. Chiyvis was assisted into his house
by his companions, and DR.. Thomas
Taylor was hastily summoned. When
he arrived he succeeded in extracting
the bullet from Chlvvis' back. During
the operation Chivvis was under the in
fluence of morphine. DR.. Taylor says
that Chivvis is resting quietly. He will
not venture an opinion as to whether
the wound will prove fatal.

ATWOOD, Kan, April 4.-Judge Ber-
tram yesterday sentenced Graclan
Chleborad to fifty years in the penlten-
tiary for murder. Chleborad is about
thirty years old. and will probably not
live to serve his time out. The crime OF
which he was convicted was poisoning
his younger brother, Joseph, last De-
cember. Strange to say, although there
was proof positive of strychnine in the
dead mans stomach, and every circum-
stance pointed to Gracian as the murder
er, the Jury returned a verdict OF murder
in the second degree, acquittipg Mrs.
Chleborad, his wife, who was indicted
with him. The judge, however. made
, amends Tor the jury's action by pro-
nOuncing sentence that virtually
amounted to life Imprisonment. Ii the
evidence of Chaeborad's neighbors is to
be believed the poisoning of JOSepf1

indicated that he was
Murdered for His Money
and his body thrown into an abandoned
well on the 'divide." not far from the
Shaw dug-out. After while the Chile
borads, consisting of man and his wife
and three sons, of which Gracian was
the oldest, took the claim. In the
course of time Mrs. ChlebOrad died mys-
teriously, and her place of burial was
never known. The event Occasioned
comment, but the people seemed to be
afraid of the Chleborads, and it was
never investigated. 1t was generally
believed, however, that she was muir
dered, and her body thrown into the well.
Later the old man died suddenly, and
the neighbors again suspected poisoning.
This was followed by a fresh burial in
the well. This crime was charged TO
Gracian Chleborad and his wife May.
A few months later one OF the brothers
disappeared, and Gracian said that he
had gone to Nebraska, but the boy
never came back. anditis supposed the
well received another victim. Last
December young Robert was poisoned
aud the murderer was detected by a
party of neighbors, who met Graclan
with the body of the boy OH his lshoul-
der. making straight for the old we'll.
He was arrested and the murder
proved. An effort has been made to
have the county commissioners die out
