Racing with wolves.

Many thrilling tale has been told by
travellers of race with wolves across
the frozen steppes of Russia. Some
times only the picked bones of the hap
less traveller are found to tell the tale.
In our own country thousands are en-
gagged in life-and-death race
against the wolf consumption. The
best weapon with which to fight
the foe is DIR. Pierce's Golden
Medical Discovery. This renowli-
ed remedy has cured myriads of
cases when all other medicines and doc
tors had failed. 1t is the greatest blood
purifier and restorer of strength known
in the world. For all forms OF scrofulous
affections (and consumption is one of
them), it is unequaled as remedy.

BRUSSELS. Dec. I5.- The committee
appointed by the international none
tary conference, to consider the various
projects submitted to the conference,
have adopted report in which they
state, in considering the various propo-
sails submitted to them, they confined
themselves to study of the general
principles and did not discuss the details
necessary to give the several proposals
effect. After reviewing the reasons for
and against the different plans, the re-
port concludes: "Havine regard for the
fact that the conference is not yet pro-
nounced on the general question, the
committee do not feel satisfied in taking
a vote upon the projects referred to
them, or attempting to formulate a COM
promise between the varying monetary
doctrines advanced"

the congress of the United States for
appropriations to secure a free river
from Astoria to the navigable sources OF
the Columbia and its tributaries, and

earnest attention"
1t starts off very plausibly, and reads
smoothly enough to capture the ordinary
resident and tax payer" who rarely
reads beyond the fifth line of any docu-
ment of this character presented to him
for signature. If it were headed Re
monstrance," that its true character
might be revealed; it would not be so
successful. But it will be observed that
that precaution has been studiously
avoided.
Read it carefully through. Analyze it.
The Sd paragraph disposes of the 'fde
mand' in the I'd paragraph completely,
by asking that the improvement 'sbe
eral government They would have
history repeat itself, and delay the dalles
project for the next twenty years, dis has
been the case at the cascades.
The 4th paragraph is answered by
the splendid results of the past two sea-
sons, following the completion of the
state portage railway at the cascades.
The 9th paragraph is completely set
aside by the evidence of scenes at Dalles
city during the past two seasons of grain
and wool shipments. The farmer living
within from 20 TO 40 miles of this city
deems it no hardship to haul to this
place for shipment, since the Regulator
line of steamboats, was placed on the
river in connection with the cascade
portage, built hy the state, and made 1t
possible for them to ship their products,
The facts show for themselves. Ship
ments from The Dalles this year doubled
over the shipments of last year, in Doth
wheat aand wool, while shipments of
fruit have trebled, and live stock ship
ments have vastly increased, at a less
rate of freight which has saved the
farmer $3.50 per ton on all shipments,
and from $500 tos 800 per head on
horses and other. stock; nearly if not
quite reimbursing the state treasury for
its Investment in the portage railway.
These are stubborn facts. Ponder over
them.
So far as the 9Th paragraph is con-
cerned, it is a mass of buncombe. The
existing state of things at the cascades
proves beyond the shadow of a doubt
what would be the results of state aid at
the dalles. When the appropriation
was made at Salem two years ago there
was not living human being this side
of Washington City who believed, or
had single idea to predicate hope
upon: that the general government
would hasten its steps to carry on TO
completion the long-delayed work at
the cascade locks.
The little portage railway, built by
the state, accomplished a mission in
that respect. There is now some assur-
ance that the string of red tape is brok
en-, and the locks and canal contract is
awarded, with a prospect of the final
completion at an early day. Not later
than July 1st, 1894. So much for that.
Finally, we believe that if the coming
assembly make appropriation for the
dalles portage next month, it will have
the effect of Fastening congress in the
matter of canal at the dalles, which is
practically what must come in course Of
time.

SEBASTIAN DELP IS DEAD.

He succumbs to Injuries Received From
Falling Down an Elevator Shaft.
Sebastian Delp died at his home, 6S Sixth
avenue, yesterday morning from injuries
received by falling down an elevator shaft
Saturday night. Mr.. Delp was well known
in Pittsburg, having resided here for 80
years. Many years ago he emigrated to
America from Germany and came
to Pittsburg. Reaching this city
without a cent, he began life in the new
world as musician. In short time he began
to work at the barber's trade. By close
economy he accumulated enough money to
purchase shop of his own. From that
small beginning he eventually amassed
snug fortune. At one time he controlled
more than one-half of the barber shop trade
in Pittsburg and Allegheny. He was a
member of the Allegheny firm of Delp &
Bell, furniture dealers, and was an extern
sive property owner. For some years he
has been connected with the First German
Evangelical Protestant Chnrch. The funeral
services will be held on Thursday at 2. M.
Mr. Delp leaves a widow and seven chill
dren.

AGAINST THE LOTTERY.

The Democratic Ants Garry Louisians by
10000 Plurality-The Regulars Win In
New Orleans by 5,OOO-Big Vote Polled
and Everything Quiet
NEW ORLEANS, La, April 19.-The
election to-day in Louisiana is one Of the
most important ever held here The peo-
pie to-day vote for Governor and other
State officers, for full Legislature, Senate
and House, for four years, and for district,
parish and local officers, and those of New
Orleans vote in addition for all their
municipal officers from Mayor and Council
men down. Three amendments to the Con-
stitution are also submitted to the popular
vote: First-Authorizing the city of New
Orleans to fund its bonds at lower rate of
interest. Second-An amendment authoriz-
ing the police juries to levy an additional
tax for school purposes if authorized by the
votes of the people Of parish. Third-The
famous revenue amendment extending the
charter of the Louisiana Lottery.
There are five complete State tickets.
First, the regular Democratic ticket with
Judge 8. d. McEnery for Governor and
Robert c. Wicklife for Lieutenant Gov
ernor. Second, the anti-lottery faction,
headed by Murphy j. Foster, ex-State Sen
ator from st. Mary's parish, with Charles
Parlangs, ex-United States District At
torney, for Lieutenant Governor, and
Thomas Scott Adams, Of the Farmers Al
lance, for Secretary of State. Third, the
regular Republican ticket, headed by A. H.
Leonard, of Shreveport, who was formerly
United States District Attorney and Dud-
ley Coleman, ex-Congressman from the Sec
ond Louisiana district. Fourth, the Re-
publican ticket headed by John Ebreaux,
Pointe coupes parish, for Governor
and James G. Weaks, of Ouachita,
for Lieutenant Governor. This ticket is
supported by Ex-Governor Yarmouth, now
collector of this port, and nearly all the
Federal officials in the State. Fifth, the
Peoples party ticket-For Governor, R. L.
Tannehil1, of Winn parish, and Lieutenant
Governor, L j. Mills of Calcasieus.
The regular Democratic nominee for
Mayor is Hon. John Fitzpatrick, who favors
the election of the McEnery State ticket.
His opponent is the Hon. Joseph Shakes
peare, the present incumbent, who favors
the success of the Foster ticket.
A very large vote was polled and every
thing went off peacefully and quietly, though
there were some charges Of fraud. Fitz-
patrick, the regular Democratic nominee
for Mayor of New Orleans, is probably
elected by 5000. Advices from all over
the State indicate the election of Foster,
anti-lottery Democrat, as Governor, by a
plurality Of 10000.

A PLOT AGAINST A KING,

Munoz, the Spanish Anarchist, Cnnfesses to
an Assassination Scheme.
MADRID, April 19.-The arrest Of Felipe
Munoz, the Anarchist who was betrayed
into the hands of the police by Delbouche,
who informed the authorities that Munoz
was the prime mover among the Anarchists,
and supplied him and others with bombs,
promises to result in the extirpation of that
dangerous class in Spain. Munoz has al
ready made confessions that have caused
the arrest of number of his accomplices.
A further confession made by Munoz to-day
says that at a recent secret Anarchist meet
ing lots were cast to decide which of the
members should kill the boy King of
Spain.
This statement has caused much anxiety,
and the precautions to guard against any at
tack on the King have been greatly added
to. Several of the Anarchists now under
arrest have confessed that an attempt was
to be made to blow up the royal palace,
but no one until now has acknowledged
that direct attempt upon the life of the
young King would be made.

The West End Road Will Claim the Point
Bridge Is . Public Highway.
The Pittsburg and West End Street Rail-
way Company will probably know to-day
whether its cars can cross the Point bridge
or not. Some months ago the company
asked for permission to run electric cars
over the bridge. The request was refused
by the bridge company. The street car
company carried the matter to the courts,
claiming the right to cross the bridge, de-
claring it to be public highway. The case
will be argued to-day in Common Pleas
Court No. 2.
If the case goes against the street car
company they will carry it to higher
court.
The Pittsburg and West End Street Rail-
way Company yesterday let the contract
for power house to cost $50, 900. 1t is the
intention of the company to replace the
bob-tail with electric cars at the earliest
date. The contracts for the other appur-
tenances will be let at the meeting Of the
directors next Thursday. The West End
road is the last of the horse car lines in
Plttsburg.

A convention of Division g. United Mine
Workers, Pittsburg district, will assemble
here Wednesday April q. Only organized
miners will have voice in the convention,

dent will probably be hot and close, as both
of the nominees are very popular in the dis
Costello will come out ahead. Then, too,
there are so many candidates for other
offices from Mr.. Wallace's home that the

that miners call pit meetings in all locali-
ties and appoint delegates to the Mononga-
hela City convention. President Mcbride
will be present and direct the proceedings.

CRUEL ENGLISH CARS.
With Their Prison Compartments,
Furnish Another Sad Tale. +.
A BROTHER OF LORD GREVILLE
Held for Court for an Inhuman Assault
on q Fellow Passenger.
NEWS FROM THE EUROPEAN CAPITALS

LONDON, April 19.-Hon. Patrick G.
Greville-Nugent, brother of Lord Greville,
was to-day arraigned in Police Court on the
charge of having assaulted young lady
named Price last night in compartment Of
train running to London from Brighton.
Miss Price stated that she made a most
desperate struggle against her assailant, and
that he only succeeded after she was ex-
hausted.
The prisoner was remanded on bail of
e400. He strenuously denies the charge
and declares that the case is one of attempt
ed blackmail. Hon. Patrick Greville-
Nugent, who was born in 1852, was married
in 1882 to Ermengarda, daughter Of the late
Augustus Ogilvie. He is deputy lieu
tenant and magistrate of County West
meath, ireland, and was at one time High
Sheriff of the county.
The Accused Is Held for Trial.
When the case was called, Miss Price was
not present. This was explained by the
police, however, as being due to the fact
that she had not reached her home until
o'clock this morning. Her presence was
not necessary to enable the magistrate to
hold the accused.
In her statement, Miss Price declared
that she was travelling in frst-class car
riage from Brighton. She was the only oc-
cupant in the compartment until the train
reached Harvard Heath. Here the accused
entered the compartment. He shortly en-
gagged her in conversation, and it was not
long before he made an improper proposal to
her. She spurned his advances, but he per-
sisted and grasped her and attempted to
throw her upon the seat.
Miss Price was in an agony of terror. She
screamed for help and struggled violently.
In all frst-class English railway carriages
there is cord known as safety cord,
which is only to be used by passengers to
attract the attention of the guards in cases
of emergency.
She signaled for Help in Vain.
In her statement Miss Price says she
pulled this cord during her struggle with
her assailant, but her signal does not appear
to have been answered. She resisted to the
utmost of her strength, but the struggle
was an unequal one, and she was finally
helpless.
When the train arrived at East Croydon,
Miss Price left the carriage and entered
another one. She then told the guard of
what had occurred. The accused has apart
ments in Eaton Terrace, London. When
arraigned in court this morning to answer
the charge he was accompanied by his wife.

FEARS FOR MAY DAY.

The Discovery of secreted Dynamite Sets
Spaniards to Trembling.
MADRID, April 19.-The authorities at
Cadiz have made a further discovery of
secreted dynamite there, and much alarm
prevails among the inhabitants in conse-
quence. 1t is feared that the May Day
demo nstration at Cadiz will be marked BY
dynamite outrages, though the precautions
to guard against anything of the kind will
be more stringent than ever before known.
At the other industrial centers in Spain
it is feared that demonstrations on May Day
may be of revolutionary character, but the
military will be in readiness to put down
any movement of that kind.

State Convention. Senator Turpie and Con-
gresham Bynum will arrive on the late
train, and there Is much eagerness ex-

are claiming him and the opposition think
he is for Gray. As he has been agreed upon
as Permanent Chairman of the convention,
his preference is an important considera-
tion.
The Presidential preference question is the
all-absorbing topic tonight. The anti
Cleveland element seems satisfied with the
four delegates at large agreed upon at the
conference last week, as there Is only one
out-and-out Cleveland representative among
them, but the Cleveland faction is doing
considerable kicking, and vow that four
other delegates must be selected who will be
definitely instructed to support MI. Cleve-

possible to state how they stand on the

Presidential question is not readily fore
shadowed. That action will depend largely
upon the result of the Thirteenth Congress
sional District Convention, which meets here
Wednesday night, and which will select 26
delegates to the Chicago Convention, who,
with the four delegates at large to be deter
mined by the convention Thursday, will
make up the States full complement. The
