STATE FAIR MATTERS.
An Official Bulletin Issued-Fair Features.
or for Cleveland


The Board of Directors of the Fair
Association has issued an edition Of 90
600 of a four-page Bulletin OF the Fair,
showing an excellent view Of the
grounds, and in addition giving couple
of scores of views of leading business
houses. The Bulletin says among other
things
THE Associations experience with
special features as drawing cards has
been satisfactory with few exceptions.
Among the exceptions was the balloon
ascension and parachute jump last year.
While this was interesting, it did not
come up to the expectations of the man
agement. Accordingly this year they
have entered into a contract for balloon
ascension and parachute jump to be
made on Tuesday of Fair week by the
10 IT," T"ns% TnnG N I'll" these Gentlemen
agree to ascend to height of not less
than 1000 feet, or to forfeit all pay.
They have never failed to give salts
factory performance, and this bids fair
to make of the fair this year memoir
able occasion. There will also be other
attractive special features"
Director Robert Anderson, OF the
Speed Committee, will leave for Cleve-
land to-day, to look after horses for the
speed contests, and will book some fine
entries while he is absent.
The pool-seeling privileges have been
awarded to William Mclaughlin.

A REIGN OF TERROR
In Chili-Bslmaceda's Crusities-""-'

In CbiIi-Balmacedas Crusities-""A'
prominent People Imprisoned
New YORK, July 2s.-Chilian, feru.
Wan and Argentine newspapers received
in this city give interesting details Oh
the struggle of the CHILEAN factions'
The confidential agent of the insurgents
at Panama has made public the follow
inc bulletin received from the Minister
Of Foreign Affairs for the Congressional
party:
IoUIoUE, July 3.
The ship Maipo has foundered, nav
ing aboard complete equipments oI lno
fantry, cavalry aud artillery for 2o'ooo
men.
On account Of alleged cruelties on the
mart of Balmaceda Ell Tdcord. OF Tacna,
asserts that officers and soldiers daily
desert the government forces. When-
ever any of them are captured the
authorities fog them, administering
from 100 to 200 strokes and then senu
them to the hospitals, which forwaru
them to the cemeteries
Ell Heraldo, published at La Paz,
Bolivia, says: "a Struggled mail brought
yesterday June ~ from the caption
(Santiago) brings the following: On
the 10th inst. twenty-five individuals,
soldiers and officers were shot in San
tiago, being suspected OF plotting a
mutiny in the corps to which they De-
longed. The execution took place In
the barracks at early dawn, so the
populace might know nothing OF the
occurrence. The insurgent crew OF the
torpedo Ram Waldo which ran away
from Valparaiso and was recaptured on
the heights of Papudo when her coal
gave out, have also been shot. The
total mum Der was seven or eight.
The greatest terror reigns in Santi-
ago, Valparaiso and in the southern
towns. The spies and minions OF the
tyrant not only violate homes, but also
the converts and monasteries, looking
for revolutionists. The fields are de-
serted because the unfortunate huazos
(farmers) have fed to the mountains TO
escape enforced enlistment in the ranks
OF Balmaceda's army. Charges OF gross
est cruelty by Senior Y. Solar, social en-
voy OF the constitutional government OF
Peru, are made. His interview with
the editor of Ell Ndccendl, OF Lima,
Peru, was Published in that paper.
Said he: 'rThe dungeons OF Santiago, Tai
ca, Conception and Valparaiso are filled
with the most worthy and respectable
citizens. In these jails the torture is
daily applied to young and old men to
force them to avowals which would
compromise their friends. The lash,
the gallowS, the fusilade and other cruel
expedients OF the executioners are a
daily spectacle in these sombre abodes.
Great establishments costing their
proprietors millions of dollars, for ex-
ample, those at the coal mines at Lebb,
of Senior Errazuriz, have been RACED TO
the ground by Balmaceda. Works of
public necessity have been ruthlessly
destroyed. A paper of Copiapo, Chilli,
announces that twenty young men have
been executed in Valparaiso by order
OF Balmaceda, not having taken passage
aboard an English steamer which was
bound for the North.

onR A1.a PIER orNr. BoNps.

The city finds itself in an embarrass-
ing position in regard to the Main street
bridge bonds. OF the 100000 worth 1t
has been able to dispose of but little
over $40, 900 worth. The reason OF this,
besides the scarcity OF idle capital, Is
the desire OF investors to hold off for
the per cent. electric light bonds,
which they very naturally prefer to the
~ per cent. bridge bonds.
In view of the fact that something
must be done to get the city out
Of the dilemma, the REGISTER suggests
that the city make proposition to
the banks holding her deposits, which
aggregate from $4,000 to $4,000. to
waive the payment of interest on them
on the condition that the banks take up
these bonds till they are disposed OF.
This is one suggestion. Here is an
other plan which may be practical:
There will, of course, be no trouble in
disposing of the electric light 6 per
cent. bonds. Suppose, then, that every
purchaser of two dollars worth Of these
be required to take one dollars worth
of the Al per cent. bridge bonds. This
would represent an investment bearing
81 per cent. interest, which, being free
from taxation, would really amount to
per cent, which investors would jump
at.
These suggestions the REGISTER sub
mits to the wisdom Of Council in the
absence Of something better.
The outcome of the AZ per cent.
bond experiment should guide the city
in future; although the bonds are as
good as gold, and the Investments sure
and safe as anything can be, the inter-
est is too low to attract any considera-
BILE amount OF capital In this commu-
nifty.

NOTES OF THE RIVER.
News About the Boats and Boatmen on
the Ohio.

the Ohio.
The Ed. Roberts had the misfortune
TO ground her entire tow Sunday morn
ing at Logstown bar. The water was
getting low and the place is bad one,
and the boat ran on the bar with her en-
tire tow of nine pieces. She worked
several hours trying to get the ground
ed crafts off, and pulled the ends out OF
two or three barges, but none Of her tow
was lost. After vainly working for some
time the trip was abandoned. The &C
cident is very unfortunate one, mas
much as it not only destroys the trip,
but the tow may be stranded for several
months. All the barges are in good
condition now, and will float as soon as
there is water enough.
The Hudson swung of for Plttsburg
last night at o'clock. She had all the
freight she could haul and carried over
one hundred passengers.
The R. B. Kendall passed up
Yesterday with the old Louis A. Sherley
in tow, and two barges of lumber.

MORE AMMUNITION AND ARMS
Struggled Out of California Ports for the

SAN FRANCISCO, July 2s.-Notwith-
standing the fate of the officers Of the
Robert and Minnie, and the great care
exercised by the customs officers, it has
been learned that large quantities of

bales OF hay. 1t has been discovered
that three large truckfuls of cartridges
were packed at the repacking establish
ment in this city and shipped on the
Hounsloa, which sailed July IS for
Iquique. 1t is believed that much Of
the baled hay shipped on four other
ships also concealed rifles and ammuni-
tion.
The leading dealers in firearms and
cartridges say that sales in their lines
have been large during the last few
months, but they sold for cash, and 1t
was not their business to inquire as to
the uses to which the goods were to be
put. The shippers Of the hay cargoes
on the several vessels claim the hay was
all purchased of leading dealers who
delivered it in CARROTS on the wharyes
where the vessels were loading. 1t is

A STATE WEATHER BUREAU.

In conformity with request from
the Agricultural Department and
Weather Bureau, Mr.. w. w. DENT,
the Local Observer at Parkersburg, has
issued a circular to the county and
city authorities Of West Virginia and
the people generally, which will be
found in another column, looking to
the establishment OF State Weather
Bureau, to be under the control of and
cooperate with the National Weather
Bureau Of the Agricultural Depart
ment. 1t is proposed to establish OBJ
servation stations in every county in
the State, from which daily observa-
tions shall be taken and reported to
the he adQuarters at Parkersburg,
whence will be issued weekly and
monthly weather-crop bulletins.
In his circular Mr.. DENT outlines the
plan in detail, and, also, points out the
numerous and inestimable advantages
of the same to the farmers OF the State
and to others interested in securing
accurate knowledge of the condition OF
the weather. The cost of such obser'
walton stations will be the merest trite
and the labor practically nothing, while
the great benefits will be seen at a
glance.
The REGISTER advises our own County
Commissioners and likewise the official:
in every county in the State to make
the trifllng appropriations and put
themselves at once in communication
with Mr.. DENT at Parkersburg.

ACCIDENT ON THE RIVER.
The Keystone State Creates Considerable
Excitement at the Wharf.

About 4 o'clock yesterday morning,
an accident occurred at the wharf, which
created considerable confusion and ex-
element at the time, among the people
on the steamers. The Keystone State
coming down from Pittsburg, attempted
to land at the wharf boat. Owing to the
machinery of the Keystone rot working
properly it could not be managed. In
swinging about it struck the bow Of the
H. X. Bedford, which was lying at the
landing, tearing it loose from its moor
ings.
The Bedford started off down stream,
its stern striking the c. L. and w.
wharfboat, to which the steamer
Phillips was tied. The chain
holding the wharf boat snapped, and
the three boats started off down the
river, neither of the packets having
steam up. The Phillips struck the
naptha yacht landing, and it was dam
aged considerably. The Keystone State,
as soon as it was righted, started in pur'
suit of the three boats, and brought
them back after they had loated below
the mouth of the creek.
