however, that in order to get the license

out Of it was TO send him up for perjury,

High-Handed Smugglers.

SAN ANTONIO, Tex, Oct. 31.-United
States Revenue Collector Bell arrived
here to day from an extended inspection
trip along the Rio Grande borders. He
states that a large number of bandits for
some time have been boldly engaged in
smuggling operations along the border
near Romea. They are terror to the Gus
tom house and honest citizens. 1t was
formerly the custom of smugglers to bring
dutiable articles from Mexico into this
country, but now nearly all the snug
Cling that is being done along that part o
the border is. from the United States to
Mexico. The duty on dress goods and
tobacco was raised by the Mexican gov
ernment not long ago. This heavy duty
has caused this. change in the smuggling
business, and great quantities of leaf to-
bacco and prints are sold by merchants
on this side to professional smugglers.
The custom-house guards are unable to
prevent this violation of the law, and the
smugglers are said to be desperate char
acters. They go well armed and in
sufficient numbers to overcome any resis-
tance the guards may make They
understand that if captured on the Mex
lean side death is certain, and so they
give no quarter when they come in con
tact with government soldiers or officers,

HAzELToN, Pa, Nov. 2-Llzzie Drom,
aged IA years, was attacked by an Italian
at Turlock last night, as she was leaving
a church on Green street, in the most
populous part of the city. The Italian
sprang from behind a tree as she was
passing, and seizing her by the throat,
showed her violently against fence.
The girl fought the villain bravely, but
the firm clutch at her throat prevented
her at first from making any ontcry. By
a desperate effort, however, she wrenched
the Italians hand away and screamed
loudly for help. Her cries of Murder !"
caused commotion among the congre
gatio /, who wee just coming from the
church. P. F. Boyle, president of the
council, who witnessed the assault, and
number of others ran to the girls rescue.
When the fiend saw them approaching,
he let 60 of his victim and ran down the
street. A number of the congregation
followed. He lodged through several
streets closely followed by his pursuers,
and finally managed to make his escape.
The girl was badly frightened, and part
of her clothing was torn, but she sus
tanned no serious injury from the assault
She believes she could recognize her as
sailant again, ana the police are already
looking for him. His motive no doubt
was robbery, as the girl wore some jew
elry, whose glitter probably attracted his
and invited the attack. Con-
siderng the locality and time of the at
tempted robbery, the assault was one of
the boldest ever made in this city.

A Horrible Death.

PANAMA, Nov. Saturday a naked
telephone wire was detached by some
street arabs SO that it hung from the
support to the ground. trailing over a
certain wire from the electric light plant.
A police officer commenced to haul it..
The act of drawing caused it to cut
through the rubber insulation of the
electric wire. The. officer received a
shock which rendered him unconscious.
A great crowd gathered, and before the
electric light company could be notified
to. shut off the current, horse hitched
to car was driven over the wire and
killed. The cabman in attempting to
extricate his animal from the harness,
thinking be had simply fallen, was struck
on the forehead by the swinging wire,
which bit through the skull, almost to
his ears, and their renamed. The electric
fluid Utterly filled the mans head, and
in moment the brain and eyes had been
completely incinerated. The flesh and
skin smoked and sizzled until they also
were reduced almost to ashes. All this
while the sparks played about his head
in an awful shower, the eyes literally
glowing and radiating and consuming
the fire. There were no other casualties.

An English Alliance.

SANTIAGO, Oct, 31.-Though there
were no new Developments to day, the
political atmosphere shows no signs of
clearing. The iunta. through its organs
is now claiming the police of Valparaiso
were in no way at fault for the assault on
the sailors of the Baltimore, or IN their
subsequent treatment of them. This,
with other matters, notably the expecta-
tion that Minister Egan will be soon di-'
rected to present an ultimatum to the
junta, is naturally causing great excite
ment. The possibilities of serious trouble
with the United States has led the Chill
lians into what may turn out to be a
dangerous, delusive belief. They seem
of the opinion that an alliance with Great
Britain could be formed. Indeed, the
Chillians are already gravely discussing
the possibilities and probabilities of such
an alliance between Chill and Great Brit
ain against the United States.

NASHVILLE, Tenn, Nov. 2.-Savanuah
detectives went to Fisk university yes
terday and arrested Wong ChoDg, a
Chinese girl, on complaint of Lee Kee, a
tea merchant, of New York. They also
arrested Chinaman called Jim Lee, who
came here few days ago with Wong
Chong. According to their story, Jim
Lee and Wong Chong were married in
China FIVE years ago, and went to San
Francisco to live. Here Lee Kee met
the girl, and, she says, abducted her,
taking her to New York. Not until
last June did Jim Lee know what had
become of his wife; then he went to New
York and stole her away from Lee Kee,
taking her to Savannah. Lee Kee alleges
that Wong Chong stole $4,000 from him
when she left. The case was reported in
a Chinese paper, which fell under the
eye of Wing. Chin Lee, in Savannah. He
Informed Lee Kee that Jim Lee and
Wong Chong were in that city, and Lee
Kee telegraphed to have them arrested.
The couple had left Savannah in the
meantime, arriving here last Sunday,
and the girl entered Fisk university.

1t appears that early Wednesday morning
Sutton left Milton with two travelling men
in hack for Athena. About o'clock in
the evening he left Athena ON his return

TO the rain and darkness he was un-
able to guide his horses, and when
they came to the Weaver grade
near Weston, that the horses aud
hack went over the embankment, which is
about ten feet high, Sutton having his neck
broken. His body was found by several
young boys on their way to school and they
informed the city marshal who, with the
assistance of several citizens, picked him up
and carried him into town. He was about

The Color LING.

COLUMBIA, N. c., Oct. 30.-A question
akin to that of the negro in the church
will come up at Orangeburg, in this
state, tomorrow night, the conference
being between representatives of the
Young Mems Christian Association of this
state and members of the National Y. M.
G. A. Mr.. Wynn, secretary for this state,
says that the matter is one of great in
terest, and an effort will be made to settle
the status of the coored people with
respect to local organizations. 1t is not
at all likely that any proposition looking
to the membership of the negro will
either be tolerated or entertained before
the meeting. 1t is understood that
several of the Northern delegates are not
altogether opposed to considering the
eligibility of the colored members. Mr..
Wynn says that ample means may and
should be provided for the establishment
and maintenance Of colord associations,
but that they must be absolutely free
from social alliances. The question is
novel one, and has been under advise
ment for some time, but the unanimous
sentiment of all the Southern delegates is
in opposition to any recognition of colored
men as members of white organizations,
even id Christian work.

The Trouble in Cork,

Cork, Oct. 30.-The in6rmaries of this
city have been busy since early morning
attending the injuries of persons hurt in
last nights rioting. There are now nine
ty-two patients in the hospital suffering
from wounds received during the fighting.
This number is in addition to a much
larger number of persons who are being
treated at their own homes.
With the light of morning came the
startling announcement that the police
were in possession of information going to
show that plot bad been concocted to
assassinate William O'Brien. At first the
story was believed to be a canard, but as
soon as it became known that O'Brien
had hurriedly decamped in consequence
of the discovery, the excitement became
intense. At the moment of filing this
dispatch, the streets are filled with angry
men who threaten to arm themselves
with more deadly weapons than black
thorns and stones. Strong guards of po-
lice are stationed in the vicinity OF gun
shops and wherever it is possible TO OBJ
tain firearms, and are doing their utmost
to keep the turbulent mobs III motion,
bat it is difficult task. The report OF
the murderous conspiracy terribly en-
ragged the McCarthyites, who threaten to
cast aside even the slight restraint which
they have titus far put upon themselves
and eutdo the ParnellItes in deeds of vio-
lence. AT an early hour Davitt arrived
to fill engagements with O'BIen. Mean
lime the law-abidIng citizens are becom-
ing seriously apprehensive that the events
which are d1sgracing the Irish cause in
this city will assume dimensions so great
ia to make imperative the calling out of
British troops TO protect the Irish people
rom themselves. Candidates will be
ormaily placed in nomination Tuesday
lext, and the election will occur the
ollowing Friday. The Parnellites deny
hey intend giving up the fight in the
vent of the defeat of John Redmond for
election to a seat in the house of com
mons for Cork made vacant by Parnell's |

Five Lives Lost.

BERLIN, Nov. IAN exciting scene
was witnessed last night at Bcrgedorf. a
suburb of Hamburg, when the hote
SchwerIn was burned and five lives lost;
Many narrow escapes of the inmates were
made and the work of the fireman was,
owing to the construction of the building
and the rapidity with which the flames
spread, full Of danger. A company of
negro minstrels, who had been playing In
Hamburg, were lodged in the upper
story of the hotel. Three of them found
their escape cut off and though their
doom seemed to be sealed, two brave
fireman VOLUNTEERED, In the face of almest
certain death, to go to their assistance.
Just as the two rescuers had reached the
floor, on which the three minstreIs wee
hemmed In by flames, the building col
lapsed and all five were plunged into the
blazing mass and penshed.
