With pleasure / thank my many
friends and the public for the liberal
patronage they have given my Gar
pet Cleaning business. The past
year, which has been a very success
full one considering the way our pro-
cess has been misrepresented, which
is exactly the same as used by the
principal carpet cleaners in this and
many other cities of the United
States.
From seven years experience in
laying carpets in this city, cleaned
by other carpet cleaners, gives me
the knowledge Of what is required
of first class carpet cleaning works.
We will give few of the reasons
why it would be advantageous to
you for us to clean your carpets:
1st. We clean as good, if not bet
ter, for less money than you have
been paying.
Cd. Positively no carpet sent
home ripped (something that has
annoyed you often).
Sd. VIII call for and return
promptly something you are not
used to perhaps).
4th. We clean carpets thoroughly
and remove every particle of insect
life, no matter how busy we are.
5th. If you employ us you are
not troubled to get carpet layer,
which is often very troublesome in
the midst of busy seasons.
Special attention given to Reno
waiting Hair Mattresses by steam.
and man Of twenty years. expert
ence in the business.

Pittsburg Greatly Excited over the

PrTTsBURG, May 10-Chief Brown, Of
the department Of public safety, ordered
an official investigation of the alarming
number Of cases Of poisoning from eatin &
smoked sturgeon, reported 60 his Office by
the board Of health DIR. j. Guy McCand-
less was ordered TO proceed with the in
yestigation, and reported that the smoked
fish had been cured with creosote. The
doctor advised the destruction of all
smoked sturgeon now on sale in the city.
Chief Brown has ordered the proper Of
ticers to visit every place where the fish is
sold and condemn it, and through the
papers the chief warns the citizens of
the city to eat no more smoked fish.
Almost every physician in the city re-
ports from five TO thirty cases. None Of
the cases have yet proved fatal, but the
people sick from the effects Of the poisoned
food number in the hundreds Mr.. Gled-
hill, who seems TO have cured and sold
this particular lot Of fish, says that only
smoke from hard wood was used, and that
be courts and will pay the expense in
Cured for a searching investigation. He
says that the fish were perfectly fresh when
received from Bayside, n. j., last Thurs
day. Mr.. Gledhill positively denies the
use Of creosote in curing the fish, and is
unable to account for It's presence.

WASHINGTON. May l9-pasquale Corte,
The Italian consul in New Orleans, and
Gaspar Grimaldo, or Marchese, the boy
who was accused of having given the sig
nails to the assassins Of Chief Hennessy
that the chief was approaching, arrived
from New Orleans last night and left for
New York, whence they will sail for Italy,
where they win make a personal explana-
ton OF the New Orleans affair TO Marquis
di Rudini. Signor Corte told a reporter
that the report that he had been recalled
by his government for making indiscreet
utteranees was untrue.
THE very fact that the marquis has
summoned me to Rome to confer with me
on the situation is proof he said, 'of the
confidence imposed in me by my govern
ment. They desire me TO talk over mat
ters more freely and more In detail than
can be done through the medium of let
ters" The consul says there Is no reason
why the New Orleans trouble should make
any breach between the United States and
Italy and he would say nothing to widen
such a breach He would hold Mayor
Shakespeare responsible, he said, for all
that had been done His only comment
on Mayor Shakespeare's letter demanding
his recall was that he had been unfairly
treated on all sides The boy Grimaldo de
nied he had ever given the signal warning
the assassins Of Hennessy's approach. Be
fore leaving Washington Consul Corte
had conference with Marquis lmperiali

Out Of range Of the forts guns the i'm

nevertheless the captains OF the vessel re-

Hothan, who gave the Blanco the option
Of apologizing or fighting inside Of twenty
four hours. II was then 1880 a. IN.
Precisely ut noon the Blanco ran up the
British and German flags above the rebel
standard and fired a royal salute. The coal
would have been replaced and the ships
towed back to this former anchorage but
for the fact that most OF the coal had been
burned and the two merchant ships had
no further business at lquique.

Los ANGELES, Cal, May l9.-The grand
jury, in session here, investigating the facts
about the Itatas cargo, have, il is said,
obtained considerable information from
the two men who deserted from the Gillian
vessel Edwardo Felting and Clodomiro
Unmery.
Their testimony, it is stated, was to the
effect that when the Itata set out for the
north she had on board sixty new rifles
and 200 old ones She had ninety sailors
and sixty soldiers. The soldiers wore
civilian clothes on Cape San Lucas the
Itata met the Esmeralda The Esmeralda
had in all $50 men. The Itata's men were
told that If they revealed the secret of her
mission they would suffer death.
The Itata carried four 60pound guns,
hidden with her small arms under canvas
in the forward hold. There the soldiers
were also slowed and food and provisions
sent them from on deck Two days before
San Diego was reached all appearances Of
warlike preparation were carefully re-
moved, and she steamed into port looking
like merchantmen.

States and Chilian insurgent vessels are
still the all absorbing topic in aaval and

with a semblance Of fact. It is said by
those who ought to know that the Itata

san Diego to take her to any port in Chilli
