Stntns of the Deht.

WASHINGTON, July 3.-In view of the
proposed change in the method of stating
the public debt the treasury officials re-
fuse to make any estimate of the
change in the debt itself since June /.
1t is understood, however, that there
has been slight increase in the debt so
far as the cash in the treasury applicable
for its payment is concerned. The re-
duced cash balance results from the un-
usually heavy expenditures during the
month. Under the last call ON national
banks $4,000, 900 of government funds
on deposit with them have been trans
ferred to the sub-treasuries, and have
been added to the treasurer's cash bal

Bitter Quarrel Among the Delegates to
This COuAtry--ParnelI Coming.
NEW YORK, July 3.-The Recorder
says the four Parnellite delegates to this
country, James J. O'Kelly, William
Redmond. John O'Connor and Henry
Harrison, had bitter quarrel last week,
and hence the sudden departure of Har-
rison for his native land. Before he left
he and Redmond and O'Connor roundly
denounced O'Kelly, and he bore away
with him to Parnell a sealed packet con-
tanning their opinions of the man in
whose charge they were sent to enlist
sympathy for the "Uncrowned King, /" in
his evil days.
O'Kellys alliance with the John De-
voy party caused the trouble, the other
delegates claiming that this connection
was the reason for their failure every
where they went.
Parnell Coming in August.
Mr.. and Mrs. Parnell will leave Eng
land about the middle of August for this
country They will remain here till
after the Baltimore convention, which
Mr.. Parnell will attend. This conven-
ton will, it is believed, undoubtedly pro-
claim Parnell leader, and what is done
here in regard to him will be followed
by the Irish at home no matter how he
may be opposed, clerically or otherwise.

Our POrkerS Not Raised Like
Those in Europe.

Ours Live. on Glover and Corn and Take
Exercise with Their Food, While Those
Abroad are Confined in Small and
Filthy Quarters and are Treated as

WASHINGTON, July 8. Secretary
Rusk, when asked in regard to the re-
suits of the pork inspection at Chicago,
said that it had been very satisfactory.
The proportion of animals found af-
fected is less than was expected, and he
believes less than exists in the hogs of
any other country.
Our pork, he continued, is the most
wholesome of any produced in the
world, because our hogs are raised un-
der the best sanitary conditions. They
are not confined to small pens and filthy
quarters as in other countries, but they
have the run of large fields and are fed
upon clover and corn. Hogs here are
not treated as scavengers, and fed upon
slOps and garbage as they are i'll Europe;
but on the contrary, they are raised as
means of marketing in a concentrated
form, the bulky produce of our farms.
Our inspection has demonstrated with
out question that the pork Of the United
States is beyond suspicion, and the in
spected product will be by far the best
which finds its way to the European
markets.

CHILHS FUTURE.
The Outlook of the Republic
Anything but Bright.
Disaster Will Result No Matter
What Happens.


President Bain,acedai a Mar of ExtraOr-
dinary Determination, Uniting Cauca-
sian Intelligence with, Indian Cunning
and FerOcity--His Safety Depends Upon
His Firmness.
CHICAGO, July 3.-General Thomas
o. Osborne, who recently returned to
this city after residence of many years
in Chill, expresses the opinion that the
stories of barbarous cruelty by Presi-
dent Balmaceda, as told in recent dis
patches are correct.
81 know the man so well, said the
general, THAT l can believe almost any
story of cruelty that is told about him.
He is a man of such determination that
he would rather perish than give an
inch. He will never make peace until
the revolutionists concede everything,
and as they don't propose to do that the
country will soon be devastated. He is
far in advance of others of his race, as
there is Anglo-Saxon blood in his veins.
But there is enough of the Indian blood
there to make him the most determined
of men, and at the same time one of the
most cruel.
HE has to take desperate chances now.
If he were to falter, his life would not
last twety-four hours after he had
demonstrated any weakness. 1t is neces-
sary for him to be perfect demon or
he is certainly lost. Balmaceda realizes
this, and with his 80, 900 cut-throats in
the army willing to obey his slightest
wish, he knows his power The rank
and file of the Chilian army is made up
from the most vicious class in the re-
public. All the murderers, horse-thieves,
burglars and criminal cases of all kinds
are soldiers. Frequently, in the last
few years, murderers who had been SEN
fenced to death were pardoned on the
condition that they serve the remainder
of their lives in the army.
"When the revolution started the
prison doors were thrown open, and the
occupants forced into the service. This
is the class of fighters Balmaceda has at
his command. Balmaceda has turned
all the churches of Chill into prisons.
He has no respect for religion. The ma
jolity of the men there are infdels; the
women compose the religious element.
II is easy to predict in one respect how
the revolution will end. Disaster will
be the result, no matter what happens,
but the revolutionists will never gain
the power they seek until Balmaceda is
dead "

DRANK FROM THE WRONG JUG.

of water, and May Die,
CRAwFoRDsvILLE, Ind, July 9.--John
Mcintyre, of near Charlottesville, met
with peculiar and probably fatal acci-
dent while in the harvest field. He
stopped to rest under a tree, and was ap-
preached by three young ladies, one of
whom he greatly admired. So interested
did he become in conversation that when
he reached for the water jug to take a
drink he got hold of jug of machine
oil instead, and swallowed nearly pint
before he realized his mistake. He was
thrown into commissions by the unpala-
table stuff and may die.

Major PowelI.s Explanation.


WASHINGTON, July 3.-Major John
w. Powell, director of the United States
geological survey, smiled when he was
asked how he accounted for the sudden
transformation of the famous Death val
ley or Colorado desert into great lake,
and replied that it was almost too simple
thing to make story of it. Only a
short time ago, geologically speaking, or
some time after the glacial period, when
the Colorado river wac formed, Major
Powell explained, the river enptied into
the Gulf of California about 200 miles
from the then head of the gulf In pro-
portion to its size and volume of water,
the Colorado is the greatest sand and silt
carrying river in the country, consider
ably exceeding the Mississippi in this re-
spect.
AS the river reached the gulf it began
building a great dam across that body
of water, and cut through this alluvial
deposit various channels for itself. In
due time the dam was completed and
became the head of the gulf, and 200
miles of the Gulf of California were cut
off from the rest and became an inland
lake. The climate of that region is
wonderfully dry. The average rainfall
is only three inches year, and it is a
common occurrence for ten or twelve
months to pass without drop of rain.
Evaporation in such a climate is very
rapid, and it was not long before the
water, cut off from the gulf by the
Colorado's dam, disappeared. There
was left great basin, the bottom of
which is many feet below the level of
the sea and is the lowest in the United
States.
This is known as the Colorado desert
and Death valley. The Colorado river,
Major Powell, said after thus telling
how the desert was made, had simply
overhowed the dam it had built and was
pouring some, or perhaps all, of its
water to the north of the dam instead of
to the south. Like all rivers with deltas,
the Colorado was constantly shifting at
It's mouths, cutting new channels here
and there, and Major Powell believed it
had now cut a new channel, and this
time into the desert.
1t was possible that it had actually
changed its main channel and would
permanently flow into Death valley,
but Major Powell thought it was only
temporary overflow. If it was perma-
nent change. he added, the dam built
by the Colorado might in time wash
away and the Gulf of California resume
its old proportions. If it was tempo
rary, when the overflow ceased evapora-
ton would quickly make the lake a
desert again, for in that dry climate it
would go on at the rate Of 100 inches
year.
Major Powell had no faith in the idea
that the formation of the lake would
have any appreciable effect upon the
climate of the surrounding country,
whether 1t was temporary or permanent.
Il would, he remarked, compel the rail
road that now crosses the valley to be
built around it, and that was all there
was in the whole affair.
This is not the first time that the
Colorado desert has been lake since it
was cut off from the Gulf of California.

IN A WELL FOR A DAY.
Unpleasant Experience of IA Farmer Near
Florence Station, Ky.

PADUCAH, July 3.--George Bethel,
a farmer, living near Florence station,
ON Tuesday afternoon about o'clock
sat down by the side of a well and leaned
his back against the curb to rest. Sud
denly the earth began to move, and he
was precipitated into the bottom of the
well, distance of sixteen feet. The in
terror was so smooth that he could get
no foothold, and all efforts TO climb out
proved Intellectual. He shouted Justify,
but being a considerable distance from
any habitation nobody heard him.
The consequence was that he remain
ed imprisoned night and day waist
deep in the water. To sit down meaHt
to drown, and consequently he had tn
stand during the entire twenty -four hours.
Towards evening Wednesday neighbor
came along TO water his stock and
Bethel was discovered and rescued.
When taken out he was 30 completely
exhausted that he swooned away, and It
