ALICE MITCHELL'S STORY.
She Gives Her Version of the Fredn
Ward Murder.

She Gives Her Version of the Freda
Ward Murder.
MEMPHIS, Tenn, July 2S. Alice
Mitchell, on trial in the criminal court,
was placed upon the stand yesterday
and subjected to rigid examination,
which she bore with comparative equa-
Dimity. She rehearsed the story of
the killing and all events with
great detail and with but lit
tie divergence from the story
as heretofore published. She admitted
that she was infatuated with the de-
ceased Freda Ward, that she had tried
to kill her on previous occasions, and
was prevented at one time by her razor
sticking in her dress pocket, and at an
other by the publicity of the place in
which she found her. The story Of the
intended marriage was rehearsed with
great amplitude, and the way she in
tended to raise mustache by shaw
ing was explained. She declared
that she used to like Miss 10
Ward, sister of the deceased, until that
young lady took the stand in the present
trial and told lot of lies on her. Just
now it would not be safe for Miss Ward
to trust herself in her power. Miss
Mitchell seems more fully to realize
the gravity of her situation, and is los
Ing more and more of her former de-
faint air OF self-confdence.

tite, dizziness, sleeplessness. loss Of
memory, and all diseases arising from
overwork, mental worry, loss of vital
force, etc.
Il want to say" said Mr.. Northrop,
that don't have much faith in patent
medicines, but l cannot say too much in
praise of Dr. Williams Pink Pills. The
proprietors, however, claim that they are
not patent medicine in the sense i'll
which that term is used, but highly
scientific preparation, the result Of
years Of careful study and experiment
on the part of the proprietors, and the
pills were successfully used in private
practice for years before being
placed for general sale" Mr.. North
rop declares that he is living exam
pie that there is nothing to equal these
pills as a cure for nerve diseases. On
inquiry the writer found that these pills
were manufactured by DR.. Williams
Medicine Co., Schenectady, n. Y, and
in boxes never in bulk by the hundred),
at so cents a box, and may be had Of
all druggists or direct by mail from DR..
Williams Medicine Co., from either
above addresses. The price at which
these pills are sold makes course Of
treatment with them comparatively mex
pensive as compared with other rem
edies or medical treatment. This case
is one of the most remarkable on record,
and as it is one right here in Detroit
and not thousand miles away, it can
be easily verified. Mr.. Northrop is
very We'll known to the people Of De-
trolt, and he says he is only too glad to
testify Of the marvellous good wrought
in his case. He says he considers it his
duty to help all who are similarly at
tlicted by any word he can say in behalf
of the wonderful efficacy of DR.. Will
Jams Pink Pills.

BIG FIRE IN JERSEY CITY,
Several Buildings Destroyed and Others
in Danger.

Several Buildings Destroyed and Others
in Danger.
New York, July 29.-Fire broke out
shortly before noon in the Office of the
American District Telegraph Messenger
Company at III Montgomery Street,
Jersey City. The Office is in freme
building, and the fire spread rapidly.
When the engines got there the flames
had spread from III to 119. In little
while the buildings lib, 115 and l19
were also ablaze. Two fve-story
flats full of tenants stand adjoining.
They were in great danger. At l
O'Clock tile fremen were still
fighting to save them. The Acad-
envy of Music is behind the
burning buildings. An additional call
brought engines that worked to fight
the flames from this building. The in
tense heat of the day besides the fire
made it doubly difficult for the tirenen
to stand at their post. It was reported
that two tiremen were brought from the
building partially suffocated.

Another Apportionment Declared Illegal
Killed by the Supreme Court.

Another ApportiOnment Declared illegal
Killed by the supreme Court.
LANSING, Mich, July 2S.-The su-
preme court to-day handed Gown an
opinion declaring unconstitutional the
two acts of the legislature reapportion-
ing the representative and the senator
ial districts in the state. The title
of the case involving the senatorial
case was "Theron F. Gliding vs.. Sccre-
tary of State" and that involving the
representative redistricting, "Supervis-
ors of Houghton vs. Secretary Of State. -
The mandamus asked for is granted in
each case, and the secretary is ordered
to issue notices of election in accordance
with the re-districting act of 1881, the
act of 1885 being held to be equally de-
fective with that of 1891.
The court is unanimous on both
acts. The decision in the sena-
torial case was written by Justice
Grant, Chief Justices Morse and
McGrath filing opinions in which
the same conclusion is reached through
different courses of argument. The de-
cision in the representative case was
written by Justice Long, the chief JUS
tice filing separate opinion.
The effect of the decision will in any
event be to make it practically certain
that the Republicans will elect the next
United States senator. Although
the Governor may call an ex-
ira session of the legislature
and a new reapportionment bill be
passed the Democrats have lost epo n 3

resignation to throw that body into the
hands of the Republicans, and as any bill
untavorable to the later would not
pass il is likely the Democrats will take
their medicine and 60 into the election
under the law of 1881, which is more
fair than either of the laws of 1885 or
1891.
Removed from its covering of VERDI
age the decision is really based upon
only one point of an unfair ap-
portionment. The Democrats in the
legislature of 1891 divided the state in
to senatorial and legislative districts,
and this the court declared unconstitu-

THE IRON HALL.
Complaint That the Order Is InsoIvent-
A Receiver Asked For.

COMPLAINT That the Order Is Inso1vent-
A Receiver Asked For.
INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, July 29.-Shortly
after noon to day, Albert R. Baker,
Homer A. Sampsell and Dan w. Knef-
fer filed complaint against the Su-
preme Sitting of the Order of the Iron
Hall, wherein they asked for the ap-
pointment of receiver. The complain
ants state that the order has POO local
branches throughout the Union with a
membership of 10000. The plaintiffs
state that they believe the order to be
insolvent, because it is indebted for
the wear of 1892 over $l,OO0,OO0. and for
sick and disability benefits, 1925 900; for
1898, for maturing benefits, S4,OOO,O0O;
sick and disability benefits, $3.50, 900; for
1894, maturing benefits, sc, 600, 900; sick
and disability benefits, $65O,0OO.
1t is alleged that the reserve
fund amounts to S1,20O,O00, on
" one-seventh of which was
available each year for the payment of
liabilities; that the property of the or
der amounted to about $1,000, 900, and
that the assets were largely composed
of cash, more than half of which was on
deposit in bank situated outside of the
state, ofwhich F. d. Somerby, supreme
Justice, was president, and J. Henry
Hayes, supreme trustee. was cashier.
The plaintiffs allege that large sums of
money have been expended for travel
ing expenses and payment OF pretended
claims: the sum of $4,000 having been
wasted in that way in the last year. tits
charged that large sums of money have
been taken from the reserve fund and
placed in the general fund. which
amounts were lost to the benefciaries
and members; that Somerby, in an en-
deavor to keep the fact a secret, caused
alterations to be made in the books and
accounts of the order. The further
claim is made he appropriated charter
fees and money received from the Off
GERS of the local branches. 1t is also al
legged that the constitution has
been violated, inasmuch as there
has been no meeting OF the
executive committee since 1890, and
that no report of the financial
condition of the order has been made
to the members since that year. 1t is
stated that special meeting was hello
in 1891, at which Somerby's salary was
increased from $4,000 to $4,000 per an
mum, and that this fact was kept from
the members of the local branches. In
conclusion the complainants ask for the
appointment of receiver, saying II the
affairs of the order are left In the hands
of the present management the mem
bers would derive no benefits whatever.
Somerby has not been in Indianapolis
since January. He is supposed to be IN
Philadelphia.

WATSON'S UGLY CHARGE.
Georgia Congressman Causes II Sensation
in the House.

Georgia Congressman Causes Sensation
in the House.
WASHINGTON, D. g., July 29.-The
Worlds Fair matter was delayed in the
House this morning by question of
privilege raised by Mr.. Wheeler, of
Alabama, relative to certain statements
contained in a campaign book recently
published by Represe NATIVE Watson, of
Georgia, reviewing the action of the
present Congress and the positions TAX
en- by its members in the past. The
House was plunged into a state of great
confusion by an assertion by Mr.. Wat
son that every word written in the book
to which Mr.. Wheeler referred was lit
orally true, and that he stood ready to
defend every word.
The assertion was greeted with pro-
longed Kisses. The words charge
that drunken members reel through
the aisles and drunken mem
bers speak upon grave issues.
The excitement over Mr.. Watson's Ian
guage grew more intense, and he was
called to order by Mr.. Tracy, of New
York, who was greatly indignant over
the wholesale charge upon the House.
Mr.. Watson was permitted to explain
his language. The episode cleared
away bit only after Mr.. Boatner, Of
Louisiana, had introduced a resolution
allowing for the appointment Of a COM
mittee to investigate the truth of Mr..
Watson's charges about Drunkenness of
the members and to recommend what
course should be taken with respect to
the members. Mr.. Boatner asked for
Immediate action, and after some de-
bate the resolution was ruled to be
privileged, and was adopted.

DAMAGE BY STORMS,
Crops Laid Waste in Minnesota and South
Dakota,

ST. PAUL, Mimi, July 27.-Reports at
midnight indicate that the paralysis of
the street and steam railway traffic ex-
listing for the past twenty hours is about
broken and that service will be pretty
regular again by daylight. The dam
age in this Immediate vicinity was
heavy, but it was insignificant as COM
pared to that through the southern and
western part of the state. Thousands
of acres of ripening wheat and oats
have been blown fiat to the ground and
cannot be harvested. A dispatch from
Dundas says that most of the spring
grain in Rice County is ruined. Over
two-thirds islodged, rusted and rotting.
Nine-tenths OF the fields present
sorry appearance. The grain is not
filled out at all and the farmers do not
look for over third of crop of small
grain.
South Dakota reports from Lincoln
County are to the effect that hail de-
stroyed crops in a strip eleven and a
half miles wide. Over 1000 acres of
grain, almost ready for harvest, are
known to have been entirely destroyed.
Some of the farmers carried insurance.
A cry comes from all over Western
Minnesota and South Dakota for har-
vest hands. The intense heat of the
past ten days has caused grain to ripen
rapidly, and much barley. rye and some
oats are now being cut. Farmers are in
the midst of their haying, but scarcity of
help compels the women and children
to drive rakes and mowers. The rail-
roadsare endeavor ring to induce harvest
hands to come by offering reduced
rates. The grain harvest will be under
way within the next ten days.

HOT WAVE AT NEW YORK.


Forty-two Human Beings and 200 Horses
Killed Up to Noon.
New York, July 29.-People on the
streets at noon to-day believed it to
be the center of Gehenna, so sickening
was the heat. The effect of the
furnace-like glare upon the horses
is pitiable. Riding five blocks
between ~ and 1 o'clock
this afternoon an Associated Press man
saw three horses drop dead. Street car
teams were changed every six blocks. Up
to y O'Clock fortytwo, deaths from heat
had been reported for the tWenty-tour
hours expiring then, while prostra-
tons were frequent. During the
night one coroner was called from
his home eleven times to give
death permits. Last night was Sleep
less one for the unfortunates who had
to remain in the city. The mercury
recorded temperature in shady, lofty
offices of 80 degrees at noon, while the
streets were like stone ovens, and in
the sun the mercury was above 100.
