THE DEACON CASE.

Generally Thought tho Defendant VIII
BE A quilted.
LONDON. May -l6 There is published
n paper here today what purports to
be history OF the married life. of Ed
ward Parker Deacon, who will shortly
be tried for killing NJ. Abielle, lover Of
his wife The paper saws that the story
was told by Mr. Deacon to his solicit
ors. 1t is fact that few
days previous to the tragedy and again
on the evening the shooting occurred
before he left the hotel he urged his
wife to consent to divorce. He hn d
very strong suspicion that his wifes
relations with Abielle were not
what they should be and
he thought that if he could
procure his wlfe's consent
not to contest an action for divorce
much scandal could be averted. Mrs.
Deacon, however, objected to this
course. Mr.. Deacon, the story adds,
declared that his wife's conduct
was exemplary until Abielle was
introduced to her. The French.
man became assiduous in his atten.
tions to Mrs. Deacon and Mr.. Deacon
frequently protested. Deacon often
receive anonymous letters, saying
that his wife was false, but he did not
believe anything wrong until he found
Abielle behind the curtain in her room
After that there were many quarrels
and events gradually led up to the
final tragedy. The trial will begin on
the goth. 1t is belived Deacon will be
acquitted,

Complaints of Rudohess-- -Repriinnnd fro IN
the Pos ,mastcr-tianeral.
LONDON, May 4.-Postmastcr-G Gc en-
eral Sir James Ferguson has issued an
extraordinary circular to the employees
of the postofiice throughout the conn
try MS result of numerous complaints
of incivility toward the public. The
circular is probably one Of the most re-
marlsablc that has cvor emanated from
n member of the government of any
country The postnaster-general says
In plain language that it is his opinion
that rudeness or incivility on the part
of postotiice employe is next
to dishonesty, one OF the worst offenses
that Gun be committed The men. he
says, are not solely the cuiprits, for
there are numbers Of young women
whomit would be impossible to ncquit
of matt nton and levity in the dis
charge of their official duties. From
his own observation he says he is
aware that they will oftentimes keep
member of the public waiting while
they finish some idle conversation or
complete a row of knitting This, con
tinues the circular apart from it's i'm
propriety, is calculated to bring the
employees of the postoflice into disfavor
with the general public Sir James
Ferguson adds in conclusion that it is
his intention to ascertain at short in
terTals the effect of this notice on the
behavior Of the postof1ice officials gen
orally, and he trusts that he may be
relieved OF the necessity OF having re-
course to more serious measures.

REVIVAL OF SLAVE TRADE.


lucensland Passes a Law to Admit Inn
portation of kanakas.
CHICAGO. May 16 16-The2surprising
news comes from Queensland, Aus
tralia, that parliament has passed o
law permitting for ten years the i'm
portation of Kanakus for work on the
sugar plantations. The government
has approved the bill in spite of large
public meeting at Brisbane to protest
against the renewal of the black labor
traffic, which was prohibited by law
five years ago on account Of the terri
BILE abuses that marked the system.
Bishop Barry, of Queensland, has
written letter in which he
says there is the greatest fear that
this unhappy revival of the
Kan ha labor traffic will inflict great
suffering on the natives, although
the premier Of the Queensland govern
ment says stringent regulations will
prevent violence, fraud and injustice.
All who know the past history OF the
labor traffic, however believe that
even the most careful regulation will
fail to prevent terrible abuses.
The traffic is renewed because the
Queensland planters say it is impossi-
BILE to get the help required to raise
and care for their cropa White men
cannot labor in the sugar fields under
the tropical sun. 1t has been sug-
gested that a supply of labor be OBJ
tained from southern Jndia. but the
planters. backed by the government,
have decided that it is more practica-
bic to revive the old labor traffic. The
trade was very brisk until about ten
years ago, when the scandal of its
management became known the world
over, and many restrictions were
placed on labor vessels which miti-
gated the evils of tho traffic. The
cause of its abolition five years ago
was the shooting OF considerable
number of islanders while one of the
labor vessels was making up a cargo.
The ignorant savages, lured or dragged
from their homes, were never paid
anything worth mentioning, although
the interests of their masters required
them to feed them we'll. The work on
the cotton and sugar plantations was
very severe for men who had never
worked, Many of them died from
sheer homesickness, very common
cause of death among New Hcbrides
natives

DIES MONIES, Ia, May 14.-The Dcs
Moines river has risen eighteen inches
since noon yesterday and is etill rising.
Coon river has como up over two feet
since the same hour Both streams
are far over their banks in many
places and have already made sad
navoc with farm land and city resi-
acncc property. Tho river is backed
up into scores of yards from the Sec
ond street bridge to Clay street. Tho
water has filled two-thirds of the col
lars and in some cases up to the mid
die of the first floor windowa Dozens
of families have Teen obliged to move
out OF their homes. Great fears are
entertained that the water will get SO
high that it will wash over the levee,
and then oil the houses east may be
washed away. The Belt Line bridge
is weakened by the swift water and no
cars are run over it. The sewers down
to n nre blocked by backwatcr, and
in many stores, especially on the East

BIG THREE TO MOVE.

CHICAGO, May l6-Rumors are cur
'cnt that the big Three" are prcpar-
ing to pull out of the Union stock
cards and go to Tolleston, Ind, as was
proposed last year. Tho reason for
This is that the big packers fear the

pending before Judge Tuley, whereby
the non-ass ociatc packers expect to set
aside the agreemen on which Armour,
Swift and Morris were induced by the
Union Stock Yards and Transit com.
pany to abandon the Indiana plan for

Mr.. Armour does not deny the report,
but he says he has not put his money
in Tolleston land for his health. He
admits that the courts action is doubt
full, and does not attempt to conceal
the plans of the "Big Three" in case
they find themselves face to face with
an adverse decision. July 27, 1891, in
London. an agreement was made
whereby the 'Big Three" were to be
paid So, 000,o00 in securities and cash in
consideration of their remaining at the

The small packers promptly protested
against what they claimed to be m
illegal discrimination and brought suit
asking to be placed on an equal footing
with the combine. The small packers
claim that this latest threat of the
big Three" is merely an attempt to
sand-bag them, us under the Illinois
law the output of the "Big Three"
concerns could not be marketed on the
Chicago board of trade, should the
plants bc moved to Indiana. On the
other hand the Big Three" combine
declare that the new international

Mt Omaha Collapses.
OMAHA, Neb, May 14.-The north
wing of the hospital, which had been
condemned by the building inspector
on Thursday, fell with q crash yester-
day. Immediately following the crash
was succession of maniacal screams
and hen n grand rush to get view
of the ruins. Some of the inmates
attempted to break through the doors,
but Mrs Mahoncy, wife of the SUPER
intendent, with admirable nerve held
them in check and had soon sent
them all back t. their quarters.
The falling of the arches leaves the
central interior WA Is with very little
support and it may fall at any time,
in which event, the inspector says, no
one can tell what other parts of the
building will fall, or in what direction
they will fall
The falling of the north wing is at
tribu'ed to two causes. the first and
principal one being poor construction
by Ryan e Walsh, the contractors
The second cause was that for months
water had run down the cave spouts
and into the ground around the foun-
dation walls, causing them to settle

drawn apart leaving nothing to sup
