The Democratic brethren are wor
rying themselves needlessly with the
idea that when they take hold of the
Government e March they will face
the problem of an empty treasury.
They should calm themselves and take
comfort from the lessons of history
When the Republicans went into
power in 1860, for instance, they
found not only au empty treasury, but
a public credit SO debased by Demo.
cratic misrule that the Government
had been compelled to pay as high as
II per cent. interest in time of peace
for money for running expenses. The
situation is several degrees better now
than it was then.

Kuklux. At first, when the report
came from Clarington, in Hendricks
county, that every grave of a dead
soldier who served in the Civil War
had thus been violated, it was not re
garded as a matter to demand more
than local concern, but since the news
from numerous towns 10 Hendricks

that 10 that section If the State, once
honey.combed by the Copperhead

Golden Circle, a preconcerted raid was
made and every Union soldiers grave

visited and outraged in this hammer.
Veterans all over the State are ready
to rise 10 arms. In some cases the of.

daubed on the gravestones.
The Grand Army has set to work TO
investigate the outrage, aud evidence
has been collected tending to show
that during the recent campaign many

PREYED ON HIS MIND.

An Aged and Afflicted Soldier Shoots Him.
self in the Right Temple-The Wound
Is FataI-He Had an Incurable Disease.
John Miller, residing at No. 366H Thirty
third street, shot himself through the head
yesterday afternoon with suicidal intent,
inficting fatal wound. Miller is go years
of age and was employed in the Pennsyl-
vania Railroad yard as q switcbman. He
was a member OF the Grand Army, and DUR
ing the war contracted blood disease that
settled in his legs. 1t was incurabie, and
few weeks ago compelled him to quit work.
His physician told him he could not cure him
and that he would eventually have to aul-
putate both his legs This worked on Mil
ler's mind and worried him, as did the loss
of his army papers come time ago. He had
applied for pension, and gave his papers
to q comrade to arrange for him. The man
disappeared and with him went the papers.
Miller's Affections made him Respondent,
and, 1t is believed, he grew tired of life
Shortly after 8 O'Clock yesterday after
noon, while his wife was out of the room, he
obtained a revolver AMI shot himself in the
right temple. His wife found him . mo-
ment later lying unconscious on the floor OF
the dining room and summoned DR.. Penney.
The wound was dressed, though the ball
was not removed. At late hour last night
he was still alive, but the physician said he
would not recover. He has a family Of
grown up children.

AN ALL-NIGHT SESSION.

Tin Plate Manufacturers and Workmen
Discussing the Scale.
Contrary to the general expectations of
the delegates to the convention of the Anal
pamated Association of Iron and Steel
Workers, just as wide and sweeping reduc-
tions have been demanded by the sheet and
tin plate manufacturers in the new McKin-
lev or tin house scale as were demanded by
the iron and steel manufacturers earlier in
the week
The Conference Committee of the Anal
gamated Association met the tin manu-
facturers yesterday afternoon in the apart
ments of the Association Of Iron and Steel
Sheet Manufacturers, rooms Nos. 710 and Ill
Magee building. The members of the COM
mittee began arriving as early as 1:30
o'clock, but it was not until one-half hour
after this time that the doors were closed
and the delegates called to order. At 7:30
o'clock motion was made that recess be
taken, and this was carried. AT 9 o'clock
all of the committeeman had returned and
the meeting was again called to order. Up
until 2 o'clock this morning the conference
was still going on and in . fair way to con-
tinue indefinitely. This meeting was the
longest and most hotly contested OF any
held during the week. The manufacturers
asked that a heavy reduction be made in all
the departments, while the Wage Commit
tee would not hear of the propositions
Neither side would yield.
Several delegates in passing through
the hallway to and from the room
in which the meeting was held said the ses-

AN OATMEAL COMBINATION,
The Business Is So Dull That the Manu-
facturers VIII Unite

About ten oatmeal manufacturers met at
the Anderson yesterday to form a business
combination. The trade is SO dull from
over-production that some regulation is
necessary, and it is thought that an organi-
cation like the United States Baking Com
pany or the United States Glass Company
will result in a decided improvement in
business. Among those present were j. f.
Sraulding, Boston; j. Allison Evster.
Philadelphia; William Foulds, Manchester.
Conn; Hugo Schumacher, Akron: T. C.
Foster, Peoria, and j. Ii. Swinarson, Chi
csgo.
The majority were in favor of buying up
the factories and placing them under one
management The form of the combination
was thoroughly discussed, and a central
company will no doubt be formed Soon
after the Mckinley bill went into effect ex-
Governor Campbell accused the oatmeal
men OF forming trust and advancing prices.
Both charges were strenuously denied If
the Mckinley bill helped the trade it also
induced number of people to go into the
business. Numerous factories were built in
the West Some have been burned others
are idle and few are in operation. Mr.
Foster said the manufacturers were
making a new for an old dollar.
They have no profit to show for their work.
The market has been overGone and prices
are on the decline. Oatmeal is cheap
food, and is consumed in great quantities
by the toiling masses. Mr.. Foster re-
marked that it was good to fill up on and it
made bone and muscle. He doen't eat
much himself, but many people like it. 1t
depends on early training whether one
relIshes it or not.

THE FOURTH OF JULY.

Prenara ions Being Mad. by the Mayor and
Chief figeIow-Sites Selected for the
EXercises-Improveme Promised at
schenley Park-Arraugements for Re-
frpshmcnt Stands.
Mayor Gourley and Chief Bigelow yester-
day went out to ScheBley Park and selected
the grounds for the various exercises of the
Fourth of July celebration. The location
occupied for the grand stand last year was
decided upon as the best for this years
meeting, but it will be covered this time.
The Mayor had preferred the orchard
owing 10 its advantages of shade, but its in
convenience was against it. The open
space in front of the woods, back in the
hollow, was selected for the athletic sports.
The crowd Will thus be protected from the
sun and be enabled to view the scene from
good elevation. The fire works display will
be given from the top of the hill near the
entrance, instead of from the bottom as it
was last year-provided sufficient funds
are received within the next few DAYS to
pay for them.
Some great improvements are being made
for the celebration. among which is a lake
in Panther Hollow, which will be great
attraction to young and old. Superintend-
cnt Mcknight has orders to devote his
whole time from now until the Fourth to
providing for the comfort of the people at
the park. The new band stand and passen-
ger shelter at the entrance are to be COM
pleteG for the great day.
1t was decided yesterday that the refresh
ment stand privileges at the park will be
given out next Monday morning at 10
O'Clock in the Mayors office. There have
been hundreds of applications for privileges,
many of them being for exclusive rights and
with offers of substantial payment in re-
turn, but all these have been refused, the
idea being to allow the fullest latitude to
the people and the greatest possible accom-
-.odation for the crowds expected at this
years celebration.
Yesterdays contributors to the Fourth of
July fund were: Freehold Bank, 500; A.
A. Miiligan, S25; Aiken, johnson & Co.,

men Around Furnaces and Boilers-
Seine Mills to Shut Down.
The intense heat of yesterday was prob
ably more generally felt in the various por-
tious of the city than on any of the previous
hot days. 1t was especially felt among the
mill men and others employed near furnaces
or boilers. At the power house of the Citi-
zens' Traction Company the men employed
in building up the fires were nearly pros
trated, and it was only through almost super
human exertion they kept at work through
the hottest hours of the day. At Shoen-
berger's mill, and Carnegie's Twenty-ninth
and Thirty-third street mills although work
was not suspended, but little was done, as

Peter Phillips, aged 43 years, employed
at Totten's foundry, was overcome by the
heat while standing near one of the furnaces.

tai, and late last night was reported to be
in fair way to recover An unknown man
was brought to the West Penn Hospital
about 10 o'clock last night He was en-
ployed as laborer on the Pennsylvania
Railroad, and was overcome by the heat at

recovery.
Terrence Lamb was overcome BY the heat
on Sedgwick street, Allegheny, yesterday
afternoon. The patrol wagon was sum-
moned, and he was removed to his home at
35 Warner street.
Patrol wagon No 1, of Allegheny, took
man named Thompson, who was prostrated
with heat at the corner of Madison avenue
and East street, to his home at 80 Hemlock
street.
The men in the Southside mills suffered
more than on Thursday, and if the heat con-
tinues as great to-day as 1t was yesterday
several of them will shut down entirely.
As 1t is the forces are demoralized. Quite
number quit work last night through
exhaustion. One man employed at
Byers' mill was overcome at 8 o'clock
and died within an hour. His name
was Stephen Schurma, aged "a, whose
home was at 108 Mexican street.
He was taken from the mill and removed
to his home, where DR. McCord tried to
save his life, but the effect of the heat was
too powerful and he died shortly before
o'clock.
1t was reported on the Southside that the
driver for a brewery had received a sun
stroke in Lower ST. Clair township vester-
day afternoon, but the rumor could not be
verified

Captain Lambson Praises the Work Of tho
United States Fish Commission.
Captain Lambson, in charge of car No.
of the United States Fish Commission,
reached the Union depot last evening
bound for Washington. The captain had
planted lot of shad in the Bear river,
Utah. The shad is salt water fish, but it
spawns in fresh water. He said they had
stocked Utah lake several years ago, and
the fish had thrived- They lived in the salt,
water lake and went up the rivers to spawn
The captain couldn't say what would be the,
result in Bear river. The fish may 90 int,b
the great Salt Lake and die, for the water is
too dense for animal life to exist in it.
The captain believes that if 1t were mot
for the work of the commission ma}ny
varieties OF fish would soon become extikct.
He was regretting that the Governmj lent
hadn't the control over State streams,
When river is stocked, they must truAt to
the State fish laws to protect the ami inals
until they begin to spawn. He suggests
that the border States along the flakes
should hold conference with Canad4 and
frame laws to protect fish during the ) pawn
ing period

TALK OF CUT RATES.

The i. o. and Pennsylvania Said to Be
SIashins Fares to Chicago.
Rumors are current that the trunk lines
are cutting rates on passenger business be-
tween New York and Chicago. Agents do
not believe that any slashing has been done
from New York, but twas reported yester-
day that the Pittsburg and Western was of.
5ering rate of Sc for the round trip to
Chicago. The rate on the FIT WAYNE is 81 so,
and in the past the Pennsylvania Company
people have been willing to allow the Pitts
burg and Western differential of 81. Some
developments are expected to-day. The
competition between the Baltimore and
Pennsylvania lines has always been keen
and sharp
