New YORK, Sep. 3O.-C@sar Giunche-
dj, an Italian fresco painter, killed him
self with a revolver in his room on
Pearl street, at noon yesterday. His
friends think he committed suicide be-
cause his mother would not consent to
his marriage with the girl to whom he
was engaged.
Giunchedi belonged to the better class
of Italians in this city. He had many
friends amoung influential men Of his
own nationality. He was good artist,
having studied at his birthplace, Rome,
for several years before coming to this
country.
The suicide was engaged to be married
to Emma Valenti, daughter Of a wealthy
Italian contractor of this city He was
80 years of age and the girl about 20.
1t is said that they were very much in
love with each other. Some days age
Giunchedi received letter from h
mother, in which she opposed the matcn
Since then the young Italian was mu,E

Scene of Trouble.

The Junta's Minister at Washington

BaImaceda He Says His Government
Will Not BE Bluffed BY Any Demand
Made Upon Misrepresentation BY Min
lister Egan.
WASHINGTON, Sep. 30.-At the State
Department here the situation regarding
the trouble between the United States
and Chilli is said to be serious, notwith-
standing Minister Egan's despatch that
there is no difficulty OF any m3nent. q
The Government does not inteno to
take any chances. A dispatch has beeu
sent to the commander of the United
States steamship San Francisco, which
arrived at Payta yesterday on her way
north to San Francisco, by way of AGA
pulco, to either remain at Payta or return
to Valparaiso
The Government, it is understood, con-
siders the arrest by the CHILEAN authori
ties of two servants of Minister Egan's
official household a serious affront that
must be dealt with firmly. 1t is at a
loss, however, to find precedeuts ON
which to base its protest.
The Americans Must be Released.
1t is reported that the Baltimore is to
put herself at Minister Egan's service
when she reaches Valparaiso, and, if he
deems it necessary, must furnish guard
of marines for the legation. Minister
Egan has been instructed to first request,
and then demand, the release of the
Americans arrested. The refusal to &C
cede to the demand will be considered as
a su fficient cause for war.
Tho Yorktown Ordered to Chill.
Assistant Secretary of the Navy Solely,
Commandment Erben, Captain Wilso n of
the cruiser Boston, Pay Inspector Kenny
and several other naval officials held a
long conference at the navy yard yester-
day. At its close Commander Erbe n
said that the United States steamship
Yorktown would sail for Chilli on Satur-
day. The Baltimore is the only Uni ted
States war vessel now near the Chilian
coast.

THE RUSH FOR LOTS
Exciting Times at the Opening
of Chandler, O. T.
PEOPLE WERE KILLED
Four Boomers to Each Lot, and Every
One Wanted Corner.

The Mass of Men and Women Rushed
Like Maniacs for the Sites When the
Signal Was Given The Scene One of
Wild Confusion - A Young Woman Re-
porter Among the Dead - Quarrels and
chickering's Rife.
GUTHRIE, o. T., Sep. 30-Carriers who
arrived yesterday afternoon give the fol-
lowing particulars Of the opening of the
Government town site of Chandler in the
Sac and Fox reservation:
The town site was opened to settle
ment at noon, and the scene which fol-
lowed the volley of musketry which an
nounced the opening of the town site
beggars description.
A mass of 5000 excited men and
women, intent upon securing a lot, had
gathered about the boundary of the
town. Some were on horses broncos,
and others on foot, stripped of all super
fuous clothing, each carrying sharp
ened stick, with name and notice of lot
taken thereon, all strung to the highest
pitch of excitement.
At ~ O'Clock sharp the signal was
given, and with a mighty yell from 5000
throats and amid the cracking of whips
and volleys of oaths, shouts, and curses,
and foot rushed like maniacs for the
town lots. They clambered up the steep
cliff like soldiers charging fortress.
The line was one mile long on eac b
side and a half mile long on each end.
The rush was toward lot 49, which was
reserved for Court House AS the an
giles of the advancing lines met many
riders were endorsed and hurled pell-
nell into the road. Some pers ons are
reported as killed and others have re-
ceived severe injuries.
Miss Daisy, reporter of the Guthrie
"News," was thrown from her horse at
the beginning of the race and, striking
her head on rock, was killed. The ex-
cited and merciless crowd had no time tt
attend the dying, and rode over the
body of the unfortunate woman, until il
was recognized by friend who took il
out of the crush
AS there were three or four times as
many people'as there were lots, the re-
suit could be easily foretold.
On every hand can be heard curses ant
high worded discussion. 1t will take
| considerable time to adjust these differ
| ences. An Indian killed a white man il
a quarrel in one of the tents where Liquor
was being sold.

Another Victim.

LINCOLN, Neb., Sep. 30-At the ora

Marion Gadd took the Sc on prize. The
young man hastily left the room after
the announcement of the prizes. A pis
toll shot was heard, and when the stu
dents rushed out they dis ove!ed tia.
Gadd had blown his brains out with a
revolver. 1t has been learned that Cad |
was in love with the daughter Of a
wealthy Lincoln man, and that she had
promised to marry him in case he won
the first prize. He accepted the PROPOSE
ton, and his suicide was the result of
his failure.

MINISTER EGAN SCORED.
The Gillian Envoy Says He is Response
BILE for All the Trouble.

The Gillian Envoy Says He is RESPONSE
BILE for All the Trouble.
WASHINGTON, Sep. 30.-At the head
quarters of the CHILEAN Junta Legation
here is was stated last night that moth
ing bearing on the the Santiago trouble
had been received from the home govern
ment. Secretary Julio Foster said he did
Eos-believe there was any serious trouble
between the United States and Chilli.
Mr.. Foster was particularly severe In
his structures upon Minister Egan. He
said he believed Mr. Egan had exagger-
ated the whole matter SO as to get the
administration to keep up his cause and
relieve him from the embarrassment
consequent upon the attitude he had as
sumed as friend of Balmaceda. The
people of Chilli, he said, knew Mr.. Egan
and had no confidence in him nor respect
for him.
s&H He felt that he was largely respon-
sible for the war, because, as friend of
Balmaceda he had encouraged him to acts
of hostility and assured him of the sym
pathy of the United States. He had ex-
cited the displeasure of the people of
Chilli by his extraordinary course, and if
there was a rupture between the two
countries it will be entirely his fault.
Mr.. Egan had aided and allotted Bal
maceda, Mr. Foster said, and had en-
listed his Yankee followers in Balma-
cedas service as spies and in other Ca
pacities. His whole conduct had been
such as to arouse national indignation,
and some of the men he was protecting
from punishment &,r violation of the
law were, Mr.. Foster said, charged with
being spies and ASA Ssins.
Mr. Foster expressed the opinion that
Mr.. Egan was trying to retrieve the for
tunes of himself and others he had in
duced to take up the cause of Balmaceda
by kicking up disturbance.
"Mr. Egan should have been recalled
long ago. he said. Had another man
been sent to Chilli as soon as it was dis
| covered how Mr.. Egan was meddling
| with CHILEAN affairs there would be no
| sort of trouble between these two coun-
tries. l can not understand why the adj
ministration keeps him there to affront
our people, You may depend upon it
| that Chilli will respect law and order,
and not do anything which is not war
| ranted by the circumstances, but she
will not be bluffed by any peremptory
| demand made by the United States upon
misrepresentation by Mr.. Egan."

ship Au stralia from Honolulu brings the
following Hawaiian advices: The ma

the paper was arrested and his Office
closed. Plantation owners are greatly
relieved by the rain which has fallen
almost daily for two weeks prior to the
steamers departure. Previous to the
rainfall there had been great drouth dur
ing which crops were badly damaged and
cattle died from want of water.

that a sailing vessel using a steam fog

Present Indebtedness,

The District at the last annual meeting
directed the District Committee to sell the
remaining $685. 900 of bonds and to use the
proceeds in finishing the Bank Atreet
school, and in building an addition to the
East Gaylord street school.
We attempted to sell the bonds but fail
ed to find a purchaser, as the bonds are of
very doubtful validity.
By an act of the General Assembly, ap-
proved July 10, 1886, the Center School
District was authorized to issue bonds
amounting to 1926, 900, and the District
Committee was authorized to prescribe the
form, rate of interest, time of paying in
terest and principal of the bonds and the
persons who should execute the same on
behalf of the District.
On February 18th, 1886, two days be-
fore the act was approved, the District
Committee met and undertook to perform
their duty under the act.
