Arctic Whaling Crews Murdered.

CHICAGO, Aug. ga Washington special
says a catastrophe reported by the
treasury department from the Arctic re-
gions said the crews of two small steam
whalers wintering near the mouth of the
Mackenzie, about i've hundred miles east
Of Point Barrow, had been massacred by
the natives of that regien. The steamers
were the property of the Pacific Whaling
company, and carried sky men as crews.
They were well armed, equipped and pro
visioned. Heretofore the natives have
been very friendly to the whites. MANY of
them are we'll armed, having been supplied
with rifles by trading vessels, which have
exchanged whisky and guns for furs.
While 1t Is new thing for whalers to win
ter in the Arctic regions as far east az
these two steamers, white men have spent
winters on shore with the natives, aud
have lived with good degree of comfort.
Whaling crews encamped on the land
would not be under any such strict dis
clpline as might be enforced on shipboard.
and II their intercourse with the natives
was offensive, they have probably been
overpoWered by superior numbers.

A Priest pies While Saving Mass.

Especial TO THE HERALD-Examlner Gable. ]
ROME, Aug. 25.-The newspaper PoppolO
Romano publishes to-day telegram from
Palermo, describing the sensational and
tragic death of priest in that city Sunday
The priest was named Don Giuseppe Ia
Rosa, and he was private chaplain to
Coutessa Di MaZzarino. At the accus-
toned hour Sunday the priest began his
mass service in the private chapel of the
Mazzarinc villa, in his usual health and in
the presence of the family of the contesss.
The solemn moments following the eleva-
ticn Of the hest were particularly quiet.
When, In a voice that appeared faltering
and feeble, the priest began to recite the
balance OF the mass, but suddenly stopped
ABRUPTLY, cast his eyes upward, and as his
entire congregation, attracted by his I'M
usual action, raised their heads to look at
him, he fell TO the floor, groaning and
writing in frightful commissions, and,
despite the assistance OF those present, who
Immediately sprang to his side, he died
before he could be removed from the
chapel, and In the most horrible agony.
Evidence of poison was so apparent that
an investigation was ordered Immediately,
and the fact was revealed that corrosive
SublimRte had been put into the wine used
by the priest for the sacrament and the con-
clusiop come TO is that the prelate was &C
tually murdered at the altar while in the
discharge of his most sacred duty, and
while his worshippers were looking on at
him. The matter has been put in the
hands Of the police, and they are exerting
every energy to find the murderer, of
whom there is no trace al this moment.

New YORK, Aug. 25.-Two bodies were
recovered from Park Place this morning

Of Ellis & Mcdonald, and Frederick w
Triple, proprietor of the drug store in the
Inflated building.
The Italian laborer caught robbing ,

ninety killed.

thought TO have been caused by an explo
sion Of naphtha or some other explosive
matter.
The insurance companies interested in
the Park Place disaster held a meeting to-

Interest in the Short Line Sale.

The fact that the Nebraska s. Western
was the eastern terminus of the Pacific
Short Line" to be built to Ogden at an
early date, was one OF the strong induce
ments suggested in the newspapers and by
the business men Of Sioux City for the
Winona & Southwestern railway, to be
Quilt to that point, the Pacific Short Line
furnishing when built western outlet
from Sioux City and at the same time per-
fectlng transcontinental railway from the
Atlantic to the Pacific some 800 to 400 miles
shorter than any other line now in opera
ton. 1t has been claimed that this railroad
chaser at the sale on September /.
it is manifestly to the interest
of certain railroad combinations
TO obtain control of this property for the
purpose of completing the extension to
Ogden at as early day as possible, while
there are other railroad influences even
more potent who would not be adverse to
obtaining control of this property for the
avowed purpose of thwarting, for time,
at least, if not permanently, the construc-
ton of the Pacific Short Line to Ogden. ~
Rumors have been rife that the Chicago
& Northwestern would be purchaser of
the Nebraska & Western, although il is
not very clear what use that great system
can make of it. Recently it has been as
serted that the Chicago, Milwaukee & St
Paul could use their road as a part of it's
proposed transcontinental line in connec-
ton with the Pennsylv enia road-this pro-
posed transcontinental line being the
Pennsylvania from New York to Chicago.

President Mnfatt RESIGNS

DENVER, Colo, Aug. 25.-rSpecial tele-
gram to The HERALD. "A sensation was
created in railroad circles here this after
noon when twas officially announced that
David II. Moffatt had resigned the presi-
dency Of the Denver 81 Rio Granoe railway.
Mr.. Moffatt says that he is not in accord
with the recently adopted policy of the direc
tors IN attempting to manage the affairs of
the road from New York, and therefore he
would not seemingly assent to the order of
things by longer remaining as the presi-
dent OF the company. Some time ago the
directors appointed a comptroller, with
headquarters in New York, to whom all &C.
counts were to be referred. This did not
suit Moffatt; it looked to him as though the
directors were camping on his trail and he
showed his dispieasure in many ways. He
felt satisfied that if he paid 10 cents for tie
that the auditors office here could take care
of it without the necessity of winding New
York red tape around it. Comptroller Lii it.
tie, in plain words, made life burden to
Moffatt, who under pressure resigned.
Here another difficulty presented itself and
the directors refused to accept his resigna-
ton.

Chicago to Sioux City, the Pacific Short
Line from Sioux City to Ogden and the
central Pacific from Ogden to the western

or lmpracticable combination. The very

the Great Northern system.
The president of the Great Northern, it
Is true, is man of almost boundless ambi-
ton as railway protector, and his re-
sources appear to be equal to that

FRIGHTFUL LOSS OF LIFE.

OF the many disasters with which man.
kind has been visited, one of the worst is
that class Of ailments which originating
simply with inactivity OF the kidneys and
bladder causes such frightful loss of life.
Under this appalling category come Bright's
disease. diabetes, gravel, ordinary nephitis
and catarrh of the bladder. No class of
organic maladies, against which medical
skill is pitted, so often battles the expert
practitioner and sets his skill at naught.
Easy is it, however, to arrest these direful
ailments at the start The diuretic action
of Hostetter's Stomach Bitters is just suf
ficient to set the bladder and kidneys at
work, preserve or rescue them from fatal
inactivity without exciting them. The un-
N educated stimulants OF commerce excite
without either Strengthening or regulating.
Hostetter's Stomach Bitters does both.
1t is unfailing for malaria, dyspepsia, de-
bility, rheumatism, liver complaint and
constipation.

Better Rates Said to be VOuch-

WHAT DID GOULD SAY TO HYDEe
Excursion From Colorado Coming To-day
Other Excursions Going Out, Among
Them One of U. P. Employees.

1t is generally believed among our most
prominent shippers that an agreement has
been effected whereby the Union Pacific
will give Salt Lakers better rates, both in
and out, than they have heretofore OBJ
tanned. 1t is understood that at the long
conference had with Messrs. Gould and
Clark, some very plain, unvarnished facts
were laid before these magnates, and they
protested considerable establishment
that such discrimination should ex-
lst against the city. Just what was asked
Tor, and how much of il was conceded, q
lew days will probably tell. 1t is hardly
possible that the magnates made an un-
conditional surrender, but if the objections
were met even half way, much good must
ensue.

Postal Nntas.

Postmaster Benton inaugurated his new
system of delivery in the business district
yesterday morning, and the merchants
were delighted and surprised to ind their
mail laid on their desks two hours earlier
than before. The boys are putting in their
best ticks to keep up the high reputation OF
their office, which has been established
through the persistent efforts of Mr.. Ben
ton.
Ex-Assistant Postmaster Anderson came
IN from Cheyenne yesterday and called at
the new postoftice, but after looking IN at
the door he was so dazzled by the sur
roundings that he refused to proceed any
further, and reserved an inspection of the
office for another visit.
q. W. Blethan, clerk in the Oakland
postofice, left for home yesterday, and
Carrier Feeney, of station A, San Fran
cisco, leaves to-day. They have both had a
pleasant time in Salt Lake. and consider
our Office model.
Postmaster Benton yesterday sold to the
county assessor $4,000 2-cent envelopes,
which are to be used in sending out second
tax notices.
