TIE CHINESE OUTRAGES.
HARDNESS OF THE OFFICIALS IN
Furnishing OFFENDERS.
Promises of the Authorities to Bring the
Guilty to Justice Reluctantly Exc
cuted-The Patience of the Foreign
Population Well Nigh Exhausted.

SAN Francisco, Sept. 3.-Fhe steam
ship Gaelic arrived today, twenty-five
days from Hongkong, thirteen days
from Yokohama.
A Wuchang correspondent, writing to
the North China News, under date of
August Sd, says the patience of the for
eign population is we'll nigh exhausted
at the hardness shown by the Chinese
officials in Furnishing the perpetrators of
the Wusuch outrages. A second batch
OF offenders, eight in number, have been
convicted of murder, assault and pillage,
and sentences of penal servitude for life
and banishment for life, and branding
on the face or back, have been imposed.
The Official Gazette confirms the report
of the appointment of a successor to the
deputy project. The new deputy is
known to be friendly to foreigners. The
arrest of the other malefactors is prom
ised.
The correspondent says it is stated
that one of the prominent military Off
cials of Changha, was implicated in the
issue of incendiary and malicious pla-
cards.
The correspondent, summarizing the
efforts of the authorities, says Mission
aries Green anJs Argent were killed and
Mesdames Boden, rTptheroe and War
ren, with their children, murderously
assaulted on the evening OF June 9th,
the head mandarin refusing to send a
single man to guell the riot or protect
foreigners, from June 9th to the 9th.
Following the riots twenty or thirty
men were arrested, but subsequently
all were released but five. Then, after
some pressure, five were re-arrested.
On July 4th two of the murderers were
privately executed at Kuangchi.
On July 9th the subordinate mandarin
was removed from office, though not
otherwise punished. The authorities
then professed to regard the matter as
closed, except as to money reparation.
After strenuous representations, his ex-
cellency, Chang Chih Tung, consented
to reopen the case. From July Goth to
29th three men confessed to numbering
Messrs. Green and Argent, two core to
beating ladies and looting the premises,
and three to simple looting. On July 29th,
fifty-four days after the riots, notices
were posted for the first time offering
rewards for information concerning the
rioters. The head mandarin was still
retained in Office, though the British
consul was promised he should be de-
graded.
The correspondent says the prime in
centive to the riots at Wusuch, as else
where, were placards against foreigners,
which had been scattered broadcast
These had been frequently brought to
the attention of the authorities prior to
the rioting, but at no time has anyone
been punished for issuing them.

cles of manufacture shall be no higher

NICARAGUA ExILEs.
How President Sacasa Rid Himself of
Political Rivals.

How President Sacasa Rid Himself OF
Political Rivals.
CoRINro, Nicaragua, Sept. 3.-Among
the passengers who left here August
23d on the Pacific Mail steamship COM
pany's steamer Colima, were six of the
most prominent men in the republic of
Nicaragua, who we're sent to Costa Rica
as exiles, by order of President Sacasa.
The party included three members of
the Nicaragua senate, General Pavala,
formerly president OF the republic; j.
D. Rodriguez and S. Chamorro. The
others were A. H. Rivas, @. Enzman
and Pedro Ortiz They were made pris-
oners during the recent riot in the city
of Grenada. As Sacasa wished to be rid
of his most prominent opponents,
he determined to send them out of the
country, and although he succeeded in
doing so, his action led to an open re-
volt, which resulted in bloodshed. A
mob which gathered returned the fire of
the troops guarding the partylof exiles,
killing seven people, among them being
the governor OF the district, foursoldlers
and two bystanders. More troops were
brought to the scene, and the mob was
dispersed without any further loss of
life. The prisoners were taken to Punta
Arenas. There is very uneasy feeling
in Nicaragua at the present time, owing,
not only to the dissensions within the
country, but also to the possibility of
trouble with Honduras. Both Mica
ragua and Honduras have troops sta
toned on the frontier, and it is the
belief that open hostilities may occur at
any time.

The American Hog May Now Enter the

for Farm Products Also Granted.

BERLIN, Sept "a decree resembling
the prohibition placed upon American
pork, was signed today.
The Reichsgesetzblatt publishes an
order to the effect that the prohibition
Of the importation of swine, pork and
sausages of American origin, shall no
longer be enforced, when such live pig
or hog products are furnished with
official certificates, stating that they
have been examined in accordance with
American regulations and found free
from qualities dangerous to health. The
chancellor has sent instructions to the
proper officials that the order be given
immediate effect.
WASHINGTON, Sept. 3.-Secretary Rusk
today received official notice that the
German government had raised the en-
barge on American pork. The agree
ment was signed at Cape May ten days
ago, but at the request of the German
government the fact was withheld from
the public press until official action
could be taken by the home govern
ment. The agreement not only provides
for the admittance of our pork into
Germany, but also affords to the United
States the same schedule with reference
to our farm products, as that enjoyed by
Russia.
Secretary Rusk is confident that he
will soon be able, to extend our market
for corn by introducing it into Germany
for use as an article Of food in place OF
the rye crop, which in Germany this
year is exceedingly short. To this end
he has instructed his corn agent, Colonel
G. j. Murphy, now in Europe, to pro-
ceed at once to Berlin and lay the matter
before the German government.

Two Intoxicated Farmers
Kill Each Other.
"YOu Don't Mean to Shoot Me7"
Answered by a Bullet.
The Bloody Affair the Result Of
a Misunderstanding.
Two Widows and an Orphan Lefs
Without Their Protectors.

PETERSBURG, Ind, May 24-[Special. l.
Saturday afternoon Lafayette Sprinkles
and William Johnson. farmers living a
short distance out in the country, came
into Petersburg together In a buggy, ap-
parently the best of friends.
After arriving in town both proceeded
to get drunk and were soon in a bad state
of intoxication. Johnson said he had lost
his pocket book, which contained $50
when he left his home to come to town.
and that if he did not find it he would
know who got it, intimating that Sprin-
kles had taken il, which Sprinkles posi-
lively denied. After this they were to-
gether at two other saloons, Sprinkles
drinking and offering to treat johnson,
who refused. saying he could drink no
more. About o'clock the two men left
for home in their buggy. both intoxicated.
When out about one-half mile some
further conversation came up in regard to
the missing pocket book when Sprinkles
says he felt something touch him in the
side. Looking around he saw il was
Johnson's pistol. He exclaimed You don't
mean to shoot me?" and at the same time
Johnson fired. The ball 3S-calibre, went
crashing through the side of his chest and
ranging downward inflicted a fatal
wound. Sprinkles instantly pulled his
pistol and began firing at Johnson four
shots, one going through his left wrist,
one piercing his heart, one through the
shoulder and another in the chest. John
son then fell over dead and in his fall
Sprinkles was knocked out of the buggy
and the two deadly weapons dropped
down into the bottom OF the buggy.
The horse went on the road toward
home, stopping at the next farm house.
The farmer, Mr.. Dean, went out to the
buggy and found Johnson lying across the
seat dead. Starting toward town to in
form the officers what he had seen he
found Sprinkles by the roadside about
fifty yards from where he had fallen,
piteously moaning and calling for his
wife. Johnson was taken 10 Pinney's
morgue and when undressed his pocket
book containing more than $50 was found
in his shoe. Sprinkles was taken TO his
home and lived until o'clock this morn
ing. Before his death he detailed the
awful tragedy which now leaves two
widows and an orphan.
Both men were each about thirty-fve
years of age and with the exception of
their drinking habits were honest and
industrious citizens, connected with good
families. The bloody affair is much
regretted and the two men both friends
and foes yesterday are today in eternity.

failed. With the exception of Kalnoky,

failed. With the exception of Kalnoky,
he appears to have been unknown to all
concerned. His appearance, however,
leads TO the belief that he is the son Of
prominent citizen of Atlanta, Ga, famous
in the South as an authority on the code
duello and who, though quite young, has
taken an active part in several affairs of
honor. He is known to have boarded the
Cincinnati train on the Big Four. which
left the Hyde Park station at 9:45, two
hours after the termination of the combat.
Baron Kalnoky's exact whereabouts are
kept secret, but unless he was able TO 60
East tonight, he is still at the residence of
the attending physician or of friends in
Hyde Park.
Manager Carlson, of the Richelieu, while
deeply regretting the affair, and annoyed
that il should have become known, is as
sured that the young Austrian
has been we'll cared for and
that his life is not in immediate
danger. From conversations with him,
however, he fears that the baron's mis-
play was not mere accident, but that,
finding himself facing one not his equal in
craftsmanship. he took that means OF
honorably ending his life. If this was the
case, Mr.. Carlson fears that kalnoky may
follow the failure of this morning by a
successful attempt upon his own life.
