Joseph G. Kay, Of Taylor, In the west
ern portion OF this county, died IN a very
peculiar manner week or ten days
since. His bowels became consiipated
and refused 10 act for seven or eight days
but seemed to give him no trouble as he
was cheerful and lively as usnal. But
one afternoon, while in the coop store at
Snowflake, he was taken with severe
pain in the chest, which rapidly grew
worse in spite of every effort to alleviate
ii. In a. short time his body and one
side, OF his face began to swell and con-
,inued 10 do 80 until he burst open along
the backbone fully eighteen inches. AT
te- death ensued he burst again clear
across the stomach. Those who were
presen, describe his sufferings as some
thing terrible to witness. st. Johns

The Mining ard Scientific Press takes
the following cheerful view OF the outlook
for speedy resumption OF free coinage:
The mint has been longer buying 4,5oo,-
0JO ounces than in any month in this
year. This taken in connection with the
higher prices paid, is accepted by finln-
ciers th II the irplus stock OF silver has
S,een re iucsd 10 very all proportions.
Let this be as 1t may all advicas tend to
warrant the assertion that the output OF
the mines is less than in any one year
for one or two decades past. Unless
there Is an increase in the output OF sill
yer the consumption will soon be in ex-
cess OF the supply BiInetalism contin-
ues TO forge ahead, not oniy ia this coun-
try bit also abroad. Several pronounced
and leading mono-metaiists in England
have had change Of heart; even Lord
8 Salisbury IL le ming towIrd silver. The
president OF the Argentine Republic has
cone out sq1irely in favor OF silver As
aglinst goll. This lover h,lse OF the
Spanish CTtes hs passed bill giving
the Bank Of Spin poscr TO increase the
notes iss,l,..i blss Oh silver. A DILL has
also been intro luce.i into the Spanish
Cortes favoring the adoption OF bimetal-
ism. In the United States the advocates
for free coinsge Of silver are becoming
m,re enph ltic in their dem .nds, and
with the all Of Changers, Farmers AL
lance and Labor organizations, It now
looks as though the next Congress will
be forced TO femonetize silver.

DRUNK AND MARRIED.
John L. Sullivan On the Rampage in Mil
Maukee.

MILWAUKEE, Jan. Weak women,
small boys and light weight reporters
were frightened out of their wits
today when John l.. Sullivan struck
the town, for the eminent bruiser
was on his muscle. Ed Dillon,
the sporting editor OF the Daily News ap-
preached the ex-pugilist for an inter
view, and in return for a civil question
received one ofthose things that put Paddy
Ryan and Jake kilrain to sleep in the glades
OF the Mississippi valley some time ago.
Dillon asked the bruiser for an opinion on
the outcome of the -Fitzsimmons
fight planned for next week, but he got no
further with his questions. Dur
ing the performance of the COM
pany with which he Is travelling,
Sullivan made a characteristic speech, "
in which he stated that he only pushed
Dillon with the back of his hand. The
big bruiser heard tonight that Dillon was
after him with a revolver, and the manage
ment tried to keep Dillon out of the thea
ter. but he attended the show and
guyed the pugilist-actor from a high priced
seat. Sullivin is drinking. He registered at
the hotel as John i. Sullivan and wife,
and announced from the stage that the
woman was his wife. This is the first
any one here knew that he was again
married

the foreign vessel at the place of seizure be-
yOnd the municipal territorial jurisdiction !;
that by the law of nations British vessel
sailing on the high seas is not subject to
any municipal law except that OF Great
Britain, and by the said law of nations a
British ship so sailing on the high seas
ought not TO be arrested, seized, attached
or detained under color OF any law of the
United States, and that by the laws of the
United States as well as by the laws of ma
tiOns the district courts of the United
States have not and ought not to enter
tain jurisdiction or hold the plea of an
alleged breach upon the high seas of the
municipal laws OF the United States by the
captain and crew Ola British vessel, and
can acquire no jurisdiction by a seizure OF
such vessel on the high seas, though she
be afterward brought by force within the
territorial limits of the jurisdiction of
said courts. 1t then states that on July 9,
1887, there was profound peace and friend
ship between Great Britain and the United
States; that on that day the British
schooner w. p. Sayward, George X.
Ferry, a British subject, commanding
was lawfully and peaceably sailing on the
high seas tifty-nine miles from 0naiaska
island, when it was unIawfully seized by
the armed L. :. revenue cutter Rush, aud
by force taken to Sitka, Alaska. and there
made to answer a libel, filed in the L. ;.
district court by NJ. ID. Ball. L. :. district
attorney for Alaska, charging the vessel,
her owners, officers and crew with the
killing of fur seal within the limits of the
waters OF Alaska territory, in violation OF
the statutes of the United states The
proceedings in the Sitka L. s court were
then reversed, including the fact that it
was clearly brought out on the trial that
the ki ling of seals took place good many
miles from land, so that the Judge could
have no jurisdiction of the alleged Of
Tense, and counsel continuing says:
Yet the said court did, nevertheless, in con-
tempt OF the authority OF the United States and
in violation OF the laws of the United States
and in violation of the laws OF nations and to
the manifest danger of the peaceful relations
of the two countries assert and attempt TO ex-
erclse jurisdiction in the premises, and on the
10Th day of September, 1857, did make and
enter pretended decree of forfeiture TO the
United States of said vessel her tackle ap-
parel, boats, cargo and furniture
Counsel then request the court that a
writ OF prohibition be issued TO the Judge
of the L. :. district court for Alaska, pro-
hibiting him from in any manner eXecut-
ing the decree of forfeiture or from taking
any steps whatever toward carrying out
the order, or entering any order or judg-
ment required in the course of the pro-
ceeding5. The court is informed that Sir
John Thompson. X. G. VI. c., her
majesty's attorney-Reneral of Canada.
authorizes this motion to be presented
with the knowledge and approval OF the

AGAINST PALMER.
The Illinois Alliance Men Make a statement


SPRINGFIELD, H., Jan. 10.-The stand
ing of the three farmer members Of the
house OF the general assembly in the
coming senatorial fight is no longer one of
uncertainty. While it is not yet known
who their candidate will be, it is certain
that it will not be John VI. Palmer. Rep
resentative Cockreli, in an interview this
evening, said that under no circumstances
would he or his colleagues support Palmer.
They had no objection to Palmer except
that he stands on the old democratic doc
trine that the government can make moth
ing legal tender but gold and silver. "We
say" added Mr.. Cockrell, "that gold and
silver as the circulating medium for the
development OF our countrvis inadequate.
What we desire is per capita circulation,
and we want au American system of
finance. We have come to the conclusion
that money is neither silver nor gold, nor
any other material. If Palmer was
elected, he would spend his six years in
Washington fighting tariff measures,
while the money trust is squeezing our
values and profits into their incomes and
robbing lis all of our homes. We will elect
our man or force the republican or demo-
cratic party to adopt our policy. If the
democrats are able to get a republican
vote and elect senator without the three
farmers, that will simply be a republican
funeral" Representative Taubeneck in
dorsed Mr.. Cokrells views. He said sew
eral men had been discussed as candi-
dates and they were for neither Palmer.

been rumored that David Hunter will be

the chair, and the roll-call was amended
to include the newly-elected members
who were chosen yesterday. The prin-
cipal business of the meeting was the cleo
ton of officers for the ensuing year. and
the board proceeded to this duty without
much ceremony. One ballot WAS sufficient
for the selection OF President W. A. Banks.
who received thirteen votes out OF Il pos
sible sixteen. The vote for vice-president
stood thus: j. A. Geig, 10; W. ". Berry,
4 +. Ii. Peed, /; V. h. Officer, l.
The main interest OF the election cen
tered on the office OF secretary, and, con-
trary to the usual custom of the board, the
names OF candidates were formally pre-
sented. Secretary Heron declined to be q
candidate on the ground OF failing health.
Five nominations were made, as follows:
ID. l. Thomas of Rushville, b. L. Clemens
OF Wabash, Edward kessing of Green's
burg; Charles +. Kennedy of Rushville
and l.. L. Bagley OF Huntington. Six bal
lots were taken, majority of all the votes,
or nine, being necessary for choice. Bag
ley led in the race from the start, receiv-
ing seven votes on the first ballot Ken
nedy got five, while Clemens and Kessing
received two each. On the next ballot
Bagley received eight votes. On the fifth
ballot Kennedy's vote increased to six,
and the next ballot decided the result,
Bagley receiving eleven and Kennedy
five. The latter accepted defeat gracefully,
and moved that the election of Mr.. Bayiey
be made unanimous.
Leon I. Baglev, the new secretary Of
agricultural, is at present city clerk of
Huntington. He has been for ten years
past, secretary of the county fair OF Hunt
ington county. He is only thirty-eight
years old and is known as a hustler" in
business under his management and the
department of agriculture in this state
will receive that attention which
its Importance merits. Mr.. Bag
ley is JacksOuian democrat in
politics, and his selection is regarded as
the best that could have been made,
though political views did not influence
the election.
Treasurer Sylvester johnson OF Irving
ton and Superintendent c. +. Merrifield of
this city were reelected to their respective
offices.
The executive committee of the board
for the ensuing year is composed of Il. NJ.
Lockhart, J. \. Davidson, Robert Mitchell

routine work of the board was disposed OF

THE BERING SEA CASES.
An Argument Made Against the Seizure OF
British Vessels.

A brief filed by Mr.. Choate, of New
York, today on the Bering Sea matter
begins by reciting that by the law of
nations the municipal laws of country
have no extra territorial force, and cannot
operate on foreign vessels OH the high
seas, and it is legally impossible, under
the public law, for foreign vessel TO CON-
NIT breach of municipal law beyond
the limits OF the territorial jurisdiction of
the law-making state; that the seizure of
a foreign vessel beyond the limits of the
municipal territorial jurisdiction for
breach of municipal regulations is not
warranted by the law of nations, and
such seizure cannot give jurisdiction to
the courts of the offended country, least Of
all where the alleged act was committed by

REVOLUTION IN CHILL.
The Presidens Refuses TO Permit Demanded
Reforms.

New YORK, Jan. S.-Dispatches were re-
ceived today indicating the outbreaks of
troublesome times in the rather quiet
and staid country OF Chill Mr.. Jeffrey,
of the firm of Flint & Co, was seen and
said: 1--WE have had several letters and
also some later dispatches which give
the difficulty pretty fully. The
whole trouble is between the
president and the congress. The
people, through the congress, want some
laws made which will be concessions to
the lower classes. The president refuses
to call the congress together and does not
desire the laws made. 1 suppose the
overbearing and tyrannical action OF
the president has eXasperated the
public and led to the rumors of an out
break which you have heard. The ex-
change is down to % pence, which is the
owest il has been for wears"
