mains were not much burned, although
somewhat blackened. This was the
thirty-ffth body which had been re-
covered up to this hour.
Up to 1856 a. m. no more bodies had
been reached. Owing to the wretched
management OF the work of excavation
hardly any progress was made from 8 to
II o'clock. There is little expectation
that any bodies will be recovered be-
fore day break, although increasing and
almost intolerable stencil seems to in
dicate that other decomposing bodies
are not far of, and may be reached at
any time.

waiting and over score of pine coffins
are piled up on the sidewalk in readi-
ness for IN expected discovery Of

WESTON, W. Va, Aug. 24.-When DR..
w,,jcr made his regular round through
Ii. ward in the hospital for the insane
,I,i. morning, he found Guenther
SrIpclle, an inmate, and the murderer
n his uncle, DR.. schuchardt, in
Wheeling some years ago, in compare
,iyaly GOOD health, but suffering from
some slight ailmcnt. His remark
shoot me here" pointing to his fore
be,d ot the exact spot where the ball
from his murderous weapon struck his
ppclo, vas not given any credence.
Ip., after the doctor left his room,
schnelIc took the sheet from his bed,
and mounting stool tied it TO the in:
m .idr iron window guard, then around
nj. neck He kicked the stool from
under him and swung himself into
eternity. Evidence goes to show that
the act was premeditated.
The attendant found SChnelle swing
inr but n few minutes after his act and
cat mi him down. Every effort was en-
pIoyed 10 restore life, but with no avail.
Ebe coroner summoned judged the case
not w necessary for IN investigation. His
iupcral will take place atone o'clock to-
morrow at the hospital burial grounds.
il will be remembered that SChnelle
was brought here from the Moundsyille
venitentiary, where he was sent for the
murder OF his uncle.
The death by his own hand OF
(iuenthcr Schnelle makes tragic end
inc TO series Of sensational events.
The deliberate murder Of his uncle, DR..
&. Schuchardt, and his vain attempt
10 take his own life, his conviction and
confinement in the penitentiRry, and
hissnbseGuentremoval tothe asylum for
theinsane, caused too much OF asensatton
at the time to have been forgotten. The
sduabble over his murdered uncle's
property, and the attempt to carry off u
trunk iull Of coin, which only failed be-
cause the trunk broke with the weight
Of It's contents, and the more recent re.
port that DR.. Schuchardt's body had
been stolen from the grave, added to
the sensational features Of the case,
which now has fitting climax.

A scENE on anANpEuR.

The scene from Valparaiso is one of
awful grandeur. A heavy pail of smoke
hangs like cloud over the contending
armies. It is lit up almost continuously
by sharp flashes Of light from the can
non and rifles, and the thunderous roar
OF the artillery can be heard .continu-
ously.
There is a constant stream Of wound
ed being brought into the city from the
front, and temporary hospitals areSbe-
ing fitted up wherever possible. Nearly
ali the women who had not left the city
have volunteered their services as
nurses, and they and the full medical
force Of the city have their hands tull.
From the wounded and their attend
ants only the most fragmentary iufor-
nation as to the progress of tho fight
can be obtained, and it is utterly impos-
sible at this writing to form any judg-
ment as to which sido is getting the
better oft.

Aug. %, 1s9l.-President Balmaceda
and the Junta de Gobierno are clinched
in the final desperate struggle for the
mastery of the Republic OF Chile.
The chosen battle grounds is in full
view OF the city of Valparaiso, and thou
sands of anxious eyes are watching from
every point of vantage the battle which
is to decide the fate Of the country.
The battle has been raging practically
for three days. The first engagement
was at the mouth Of the AconCagua on
Friday and resulted in reverse to the
government. The final test Of strength
is now being made at Vina del Mar
beach, directly across Valparaiso Bay,

anchored in Cosnon Bay, ut the mouth
OF the river, and under the cover of
their guns the army Of the Junta un-

A BLOODY BATTLE.
A most desperate and bloody battle
resulted, lasting pretty nearly all day.
A CALLING fire from the insurgent
artillery, which was parked on the
northern bank Of the river, aided by
the heavy batteries and machine guns
from the ships, was too much for the
government troops and they were
forced to retire, which they did in good
order.

the battle may be judged from the fact
that while less than twenty thousand
troops were engaged, the list ofcasualties

gents have blockaded Tongoly Bay, thirty
miles from CoQuimbo. Tongoly is con-
nected by rail with Ta,naya and Ovallc.

Later advices say that the reported bat

nave occupied Linachc Alto, town only
twenty-five miles from Valparaiso.
AT L,mache Alto the rebel forces took
possession OF the national factories and
expelled the director and adherents of
President Balmaceda from the town. The
rebels have also occupied Quillota. in the
province OF Valparaiso, fifty miles from
Santiago, on the Anconagua, twenty miles
from the Pacific.
Inc properly OF foreign residents is Suf-

spite of the efforts of the representatives
OF torelgn powers to protect the interests
OF the citizens of the various countries
they represent.
The action of the diplomatic representa-
dves has been so discouraging to those Of
ficials that they have formally informed
the Chilean Government that they will
embark on board of the vessels of the
fleets OF foreign powers if the conflict con-
tinues.
President Balmaceda, in his reply, has
asked the Ministers and Consuls to- delay
taking any action for few days, as he
hopes to be able to suppress the rebellion
within that time.

copyrighted 1891 by N. Y. Associated Press.I
ROME, Jan. 27.-The Vatican has been
advised that the Italian Government is
occupying itself automatically regarding
the successor of Pope Leo, in order to
prevent the election Of Pope unfavor-
able to Italy and favorable to France.
Premier Crispi viii endeavor to demon-
strate to the triple alliance that in view of
the hostile spirit which exists in high
quarters it is to the interest of the allied
cabinets to prepare for the coming con-
clave. Everyone at the Vatican, how
ever, appears serene, partly because the
Pope still enjoys perfect health, and again
because the Sacred College can in case of
necessity, meet elsewhere than in Rome.
In conversation, highly placed per-
sonage said the times have passed when
foreign Cardinals accept the veto OF the
monarchies. Absolute liberty will hence
forth be the principle on which the con-
claveS work.
The parsonage in question said it was
difficult to determine the probabilities of
the next conclave. Various candidates
have been mentioned, but none decided
upon. Under the extraordinary condi-
tions of the conclave held abroad, and in
the midst of European complications, it
is to be presumed that the Cardinals
would choose neutral foreign Pope, for
example, Manning, of England, Gibbons,
of America, or Malinci
1t is to be borne in mind, he said, that
the foreign Cardinals ere long will form
a majority in the social college, With
the development of Christianity the
church needs more Cardinals in America,
Australia, Canada, China and Africa, and
this will modify essentially the condi-
tions of the papacy. Further the world
is becoming Romanized, and it is neces-
sary that the papacy should become uni
versal.
From this it is evident that the Pope
can no longer be exclusively Italian.
Manning and Gibbons have especially
gained in ecclesiastical opinions during
these latter lines

BENICIA MAY LOSE 1T.
A PROPOSITION TO RELOCATE THE
PROPOSED GUN FOUNDRY.
Senator Dolph Offers an Amendment
Which Causes All the Trouble
MttcheIl's Move.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 27.-The action of
Senator Mitchell in calling on the Secre-
tary of War for all memorials, petitions
and other documents from the Pacific
Coast Boards of Trade, etc., concerning
facilities for producing steel forges for big
guns on the Pacific Coast, created the
suspicion that Oregon would attempt to
cheat Benicia out of her proposed gun
foundry.
This suspicion was well founded.
Senator Dolph has reported an amend
ment to the Notifications bill appropri-
ating one million dollars for the erec-
ton of suitable buildings, the purchase
of machinery, etc., for an ordnance
foundry at some point on or near the
Pacific Coast, and authorizing the ap-
pointment of new board of army and
navy officers to select site for the same.
No money is to be expended for the
foundry until the site is approved by the
President. The amendment appropriates
s., 900 for the expenses of the board.
Senator Dolph was seen by California
Associated Press representative to-day,
who said to the Senator: 81 see you have
introduced an amendment providing for
the appointment of board to select
site for an ordnance foundry at some
point on or near the Pacific Coast. It
seems to be understood out there that an
army board. appointed for that nurnose-
has selected Benicia."
Senator Dolph said ssMy amendment
is identical with the bill reported from the
Committee on Coast Defenses last session.

had examined numerous experts incInd-
ing General Benet. Chief of Ordnance

respondent suggested.
"That was the Interpretation mt unon
it by the Army Board.D said Senator
Dolph: s'but it must be understood that
the action of this Army BOARD is NOT final

it pleases.''

PORTLAND Orr, Jan. 27.-Large focks
of goldfinches, bullfns, European rob-
ms and other birds, descendants of those
imported by the Society for the Importa-
ton of Song Birds, have returned from
their winter immigration and are making
the orchards in the vicinity of the city
vocal with their sweet songs. Linnets
and some other birds have remained here
all winter, and are perfectly at home in
the gardens about town.
The society is so well pleased with the
success of its experiment that it has or
dered another thousand dollars worth of
nightingales, black thrushes, song
thrushes, black starlings, linnets, sky
larks, European red-breaster robins,
American mocking birds, etc.. which will
arrive here about the middle of March,
and, after being exhibited few days,
will be turned loose. All of these birds
are lnsectiverous, and will be useful in
destroying orchard pests, as well as in
furnishing melody.
The Legislature has passed an Act pro-
viding for the protection of both im-
ported and native song birds, and their
nests and eggs.
