CASES OF POISONING.
One Reported at Pittsburg and
Another at Greensburr.

PITTsBURG, Dec. 1S.-Louis Sim, q
Hungarian who worked at the Carnegie
steel works at Homestead during the
strike. died at the Allegheny general
hospital today, and the physicians say
it is believed he was poisoned. This is
the first case OF the alleged poisoning
reported to the coroner, and thorough
investigation will be made. Coroner
Mcdowell says he will have a chemical
analysis made of the stomach. liver and
kidneys to ascertain if the man died OF
poison. Sim was fOrty-two years Of
age. and was employed as a lahorer.
lie had been sick eight weeks. and was
reduced in weight from $50 pounds to
30 pounds. He was taken to the hos
pital yesterday.
GREENsBURG, Pa, Dec. 1S.-lt is
stated here today, Oh authority of ply
sicians who attended the case prior TO
the last stages, that the statements OF
poison being used on the mill workers
at Homestead explain the peculiar all
ment that killed Samuel Neighley, who
came home and died here on the 10th Of
last September, after few weeks
service in the Homestead mill. On the
lst of September lie was taken suddenly
i'll, and soon after he was 50 bad that h6
had to abandon his work and come
home, where he died. DIR. Kline, who
was first called to attend him, says that
the man had some of the symptoms Of
typhoid, and as the case diagnosed no
other disease his ailment was called
typhoid. Other physicians who saw the
case later declare that while there were
typhoid symptoms there were unmis-
taxable evidences of poisoning, and that
the subsequent developments have fully
sustained that view Of the case.

The GOLD RESERVE.

A Right Vested in the Secre-
tary to Sell Bonds If
Necessary.
Congressman Scott Favops
Largely Increasing the
Tax on Whisky.
A Similar Increase Proposed
on Alcoholic Products
and Tobacco.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 1S.-Secretary of
the Treasury Charles Foster today ex-
pressed himself freely to a reporter
respecting the alarm felt in financial
circles over anticipated large gold eX-
ports. He said he looked upon the
situation simply not as spec
tator awaiting his retirement from
office. Il am secretary of the
treasury" he said, land will be until
relieved on the 4th of March next. My
duty will be performed i'll the interest
of the public welfare as vigorously as if
my time were not soon to end. Every
resource at my command will be availed
OF to preserve the gold and silver, as l
am commanded"
How about the reserve in the treas
ury?"
mo one can obtain gold from the
treasury without paying money for it,
and with the money thus received l can
recoup the gold. There is also the right
vested in the secretary of the treasury
to sell bonds if necessary to maintain
the gold reserve. The treasury situa-
tion as to the cash balance is such as to
permit the free use of cash received for
gold to again obtain the gold"
"Will the gold reserve be main
tained?"
''It will be-"
This was stated with the utmost en-
phasis.
81 firmly believe that with the re-
sources at the command of the depart
ment | shall not be seriously embar-
rassed in more than maintaining il. [
recommended to congress in my annual
report that the reserve be increased
from 500, 1000, 600 to s125, 1000, 600"
AS the secretary's report was pre-
pared before the present abnormal drain
of gold to Europe started, Secretary
Foster reasonably claimed credit for
fully anticipating the present pressure,
and taking all precautions to meet it.

GALVESTON. Tex, Dec. 1s-A special
from Carizzo says: AS all particulars of
the fight opposite San Ignacio have not
been reported. these items will be inv
tereSting. During the fight Capt. Segur.S
OF the Mexican troops, seeing he was
being particularly hard pushed, to
better protect himself, as it was
hand-to-hand fight, went to
the ''jackaP' and fought from there
with guns and pistols. There were in
the "jackar' woman and three chill
dren. The captain called to the revolu-
tionists. asking that the woman and
children might go unharmed, but the
reply was No" The woman thought
she would steal out with the
children, but as she appeared
at the door she was ~ shot
down and the children ran back. The
revOlutionists were unable to dlslodge
the captain from his quickly chosen
fortress, and they set fire to the
'Jackal," which drove the captain out.
As he made his appearance he was shot
dead, his body thrown back into the burn.
ing building. The three children were
penned in the house by the fire and
burned to death. The bodies of dead
soldiers were thrown in the flames, and
when the troops from Guerrero went to
bury the dead. they found some of the
bodies burned to a crisp. Another
woman, the wife of the nOn-cOmmIs-
stoned officer, undertook TO escape by
crossing the Rio GraDde to Texas,
but she was seen about the middle OF
the stream and shot. She sank beneath
the waters and her body had not been
found at last accounts. There are a
number of wounded men at San 1gnacio,
all Mexican troops. Two of the revo--
lutlonists were killed, and one wounded,
so far as can be learned. Lieut.. West,
from Fort RiDggOld, with Troop Third
cavalry, and Lieut.. Hayes, with squad
of Seminole Indian scouts, came in
Wednesday about O'clock and went
into camp, and will operate throughout
this section from this point. They left
Fort Ringgold, sixty miles down the
river from here, Sunday, and say every
thing was quiet all the way up, and they
were unable to learn anything OF the
whereabouts OF the revOlutionists.

THEIR HoRNs LOCKED.
Pair of Deer Killed While En-
gagged in Fight.
Special to the Globe

Special to the Globe.
CRoOKsToN, Dec. 1S.-Some weeks
ago a party of hunters were in the pine
woods east of Fosston, and w. j. Hill
goss, the veteran hunter of the North
west, had the pleasure of shooting two
deer that were fighting. He was stand
ing very quietly upon fallen tree, and
saw something move about fifteen hun
dred feet distant. 1t was the back of a
deer, and, as there was some brush hid
ing nearly all of lts body, he risked
shot, and the deer sprang into the
air. In a moment or so he
saw it standing in almost the
same position again. He again fired, and
this time it disappeared from view.
After some time he managed to get quite
near where he saw the deer first, and,
to his surprise. fie found two lying on
the ground stone dead. The deer had
been fighting, and had become locked
together with their antlers. They had
probably been locked together for some
time, as the snow was trdmpled down
for space of 100 feet square. Mr.. Hill
ligoSs has sent the deer East to a taxi
dermist to be set up whole, with their
antlers locked as they were when he
shot them. Mr.. HiIligosS states that in
all his experience as a hunter he has
never seen any locked together before.

10 the Picayune says the body of John
Patton, with his throat cut and skull

miles from Dallas, this evening.
Patton sold his farm few days ago for

it appear as if the train had run over

PITTsBURG, Dec. 1S.-Ernest y. Eek
ert, private secretary for Henry b. Rea
IL Co., pork packers, was reeommitted
to Jail yesterday in default OF $4,000
bail to answer to the charge of stealing
from his employers. The thefts
cover a period Of five years, and

the accounts are in the hands of an ex-
pert. Eckert was entrapped by marked
bills, and when confronted by Mr.. Rea
he broke down and confessed that he
was guilty. He explained that he was
on the eve of getting married, that he

BEATTY IN DANGER.
Non-Union Men Would Do Away
With Him.

PfTTsBURG, Pa. Dec. 1s.-The feel
ing against Beatty, the alleged Home
stead poisoner. among the non-union
men at the mill Is very bitter, and from
the rumors afoat it would seem that he
is much safer in Jail than out of it. 1t
is stated that an organization has
been formed among the non-unioniStS to
put him out of the way il he
should be given his liberty. Last week
paper was circulated i'll the mill by
some hotheads, in which the signers
agreed to draw lots. and the one receiv-
ing the blank was to attend to Beatty in
the event of his release. The authority
for the above was a workman who re-
fused to sign the paper when 1t was pre-
sented to him. He went among his
friends add cautioned them against do
ing anything rash while in their present
excited condition. The man stated that
the paper had a number of signatures.
