THE COMPLAINT DISMISSED.
"Count" Nitl5iewicz Declared Innooen
of Certain Charges Against Him.

"Count" NitlSiewicz Declared Innocent
of Certain Charges Against Him.
New York, Nov. 1S.-"Count" Eugene
de Mitkiewcz, the famous promoter OF
Chinese concession schemes, appeared at
the Ioa.o, Police Court yesterday for
examinauon ON the charge of having OBJ
tanned 81, 100 under false pretenses from
Arthur E. Tones, of Brooklyn.
The Count" came on from Washing.
ton, where he has been living recently,
Wednesday night, and surrendered him.
self to Police Justice Grady, who paroled
him in the custody of his counsel.
Before the case was begun lawyer
Burke, counsel for Tones, said he did
not care to 20 on with the case until he
had ali the witnesses present.
Justice Grady thought the case could
proceed until they ran out of witnesses,
and Tones then began to testify. He
told how he met Mitkewicz, and how
the latter induced him to place mort.
gage on his home in Brooklyn, assuring
| him that the money would be returned
by Col. Elliott f. Shepard and Others
| The court then said that the only point
involved was whether the money had
been obtained on a false pretence that ii
would be returned by Col. Shepard and
others
William P. Burr was tine next witness
after Tones. He testified that through
all the transaction he understood that
the money was to be repaid by Col.
Shepard.
On cross examination, witness said
that Mitkiewicz once told him that he
had Col Shepard on the nip and tnat he
could force him to pay the money back. -
Lawyer Brooke, counsel for Mitkiewicz
asked Tor the dismissal OF the complaint
on the ground that no evidence mad beer
| subm tied showing that the Count had
handled one cent of the money in ques
| tion.
Justice Grady thereupon granted his
| motion

UNCLE SANS FINANCES
A Deficiency Probable for the
Next Fiscal Year.
REVENUES NOT UP TO THE MARK

Secretary Foster Says Taxes Must be In
creased, or Else Appropriations fol
Public Buildings, etc, Must be Aband.
oned aud work suspended.
WASHINGTON, Nov 18.-Secretary Fos
ter and those Treasury officials who have
intimate knowledge of the receipts and
expenditures of the Government are
giving much thought and attention just
now to the subject of probable def
cheney in the revenues for the next fiscal
year. This question comes up naturally
in considering what the probable revenue
of the Government will be so that he may
submit to Congress, as he is by law re
quired to do so, the amount of revenue
expected.
The estimate Of the Secretary of the
Treasury must he taken for their action
as a guide by Congress upon the appro-
priation bills. In arriving at this esti-
mate the average receipts from customs,
internal revenue and incidental sources
of revenue, have to be taken into consid.
GRAFTON.
The receipts from internal revenue it Is
expected will continue to naturally in
crease with the growth and population
and as no legislation has recently passed
to effect it. But it is not 30 with Gus
toms duties. These duties, with no dis
turbing element to affect them, would be
ptable, subject only to the law of supply
and demand and the condition of the
money market.
With a new administration coming
into power, expected to lower duties on a
number of articles and to put others on
the free list, state of uncertainty is
created that prevents a close estimate of
revenues from tariff duties collected.
Merchants will not buy goods not actu-
ally needed when they expect the duties
on them to be lowered or put on the free
list
The practical effect of this is to reduce
the customs revenues. 1t is already felt
at the Treasury Department, the revenues
for this month being less so far than fol
the same part of the corresponding
month of last year.
The expenditures, however, must con
tinue at the same rate until July !, being
regulated by Congressional enactments,
which cannot be repealed until the mex
fiscal year.
Take the sugar bounty, for instance
1hls year III VIII reaCn 9lOiOOVlOoVi an III
crease over last year of 1000 900. This
bounty will have to be paid by March 4,
1898.
The pension outlay is increasing with
each month, and it is anticipated tina
this month it will reach SIC, 1000, 900, and
grow each month for the next three years
until it will take $1S, 600, 900 or $50, 900,
600 a month to pay pensions. These
| pensions are fixed by general laws.
In view of the condition that confrontl
him, Secretary Foster says that there will
be deficiency this year and probably
larger one next year
To meet this, he says, he would not b'
surprised if taxes were increased or els'
appropriations for public buildings ant
river and harbor improvements aband
oned and work suspended.

LIZZIE BORDEN'S CASE
Indictments May be Brought
Against Two Witnesses.
GRAND JURY PROCEEDING SLOWLY,

They Are Giving the Evidence a Very
Thorough sifting-Tho Murders aud the
Subsequent Proceedings Again the Great
Topic of Conversation in FalI River.
FALL RIVER, Mass, Nov. 1S The
Borden murders are again the prominenI
subject Of conversation in this city, and
rumor is being generally circulated
that indictments may be brought
against two persons other than Miss Liz
zie Borden, provided the jury finds yer.
dict of guilty against her.
These persons have been intimately
connected with the case, more particu-
larly since police attention was directed
to it. On the stand they have proved to
be not only unwilling, but even mislead-
ing, witnesses.
Attorney General Pillsbury pressed
one of these witnesses very hard, in d
manner which left no doubt in the minds
of the jurymen that he proposes to have
the whole TRUTH if the hearing is pro-
longed three months.
Because of the reticence of the persons
indicated, the police and other the
authorities have been to great deal of
trouble and expense in getting evidence
of the family relations day or two previ-
GUS to the murders; consequently there is
much feeling expressed against them in
police circles.
The closest friends of Miss Borden, who
have Thought The prisoner may possibly
be proven guilty by the law have con-
tended all along that some kind of con-
spiracy must have preceded the affair,
and tnat perphaps one, probably two per-
sons talked Of were accessories before the
fact.
1t is evident from the few words spoken
by local witnesses who have given tesyi-
mony within the past two days, that the
present grand jury is a very exacting
body and proposes to hear all the govern
! menJ can offer before agreeing that
Lizzie Borden committed the crimes.
They ask many pointed questions and
are giving the evidence very thorough
! sitting 1t is expected that the grand
| jury will visit this city to-day and view
! the scene OF the murders.

THE COMET COMING NEARER.


II is Now Visible to the naked Eye in the
Constellation of Audromeda.
Boston, Nov. 16.-The comet is coming
nearer the earth, and is now double the
size it was when first discovered.
1t occupies IL minutes of the arc ol
which it, at first sight, occupied only o.
Prof, Pickering so informed a reporter
who questioned him about the new wan
derer.
de said it had been photographed sew
eral times nightly, but these photo.
graphs, when shown to the reporter,
looked like mere black dots on the nega-
tive glass, surrounded by fainter brown
ish band.
The TACT that the comet is headed al,
most directly this way is sufficient ex-
PLANTATION why cnly the head can be
seen. The general opinion is that the
comet is becoming fainter, its light more
diffusive, ia 4..-,, .lu it is scattering
This may be in palv used by its near
ing the sun.
Prof. Pickering, on being asked if he
had yet beeu able to make an estimate as
to how near the earth it would come,
which question involved another rs TO
when il would turn in its path around
the sun, replied that its orbit could not
yet be determined.
No computations have been made here,
for as yet not enough OF its arc mas been
revealed.
The comet is now visible to the naked
eye in the constellation Andromeda a.
With field glass the sight is very good.

MlRAJes IN NEW YORK.
Com pIioations with VeneRuela Likely to
Result from Capt. Chambers' Act

Com pIioations with veneauela Likely to
Result from Capt. Chambers' Act
NEwiYoRK, Nov 1S. international com.
plications will probably result between
Venezuela and the United States because
of the action of Capt. Chambers, of the
steamship Philadelphia, in leaving La
guayra without clearance papers.
The Philadelphia reached quarantine
at 10 o'clock last night, having on board
Ex-Governor Mirajes, of Caracas, who
served under the Presidency Of Pulido.
When Crespo gained the ascendancy
many clsmoled for the head of ex-Gov.
Nirajes.
Feeling that his life was in danger he
secured passage ticket for New York
on the steamer Philadelphia, and put
himself under the protection OF the Ameri-
can Gag
He had hardly got aboard the steamer
when party of troops marched down to
the quay. Captain Chambers had run
up the American hag on the stern of the
steamer and warneu the soldiers to keep
off. This they refused to do. Captain
Chambers called his crew, who without
violence compelled the boarding party to
retreat.
The Philadelphia was then taken out
IN the stream. Captain Chambers went
ashore, reported to Minister Scruggs and
got the ConsuPs clearance papers. His
application for clearance papers at the
Custom House at Laguayra was refused
because of the presence OF Mirajes in the
steamer.
The Laguayra officials claimed that
they wanted Mrajes for other reasons
than that he was political refugee.
This the Ex-Governor denies, claiming it
was only ruse to get him off the steamer.
United States Minister Scruggs' report on
the affair is on board the Philadelphia
and will be forwarded to Washington
to-day.

FATAL END OF A CELEBRATION.


FAYETTEVILLE, Ark Nov. 18.-The
Democrats of Mountain View held
Presidential election celebration in the
district schoolhouse there two nights
ago and terrible disaster ended the
proceedings prematurely.
An anvil firing and the discharge of
fireworks were features of the jollifica-
tion and as q consequence a large guam
tity of explosives had been provided.
A portion of these had been stored in
the schoolhouse.
During the speech making, and while
the building was packed with men,
women and children, two kegs of powder
exploded.
The schoolhouse was totally wrecked
and most of the occupants buried in ths
ruins
The debris took fire in several places,
and it required hard work TO prevent the
cremation OF the persons who were i'm
prisoned.
The flames were subdued, however,
with only one person suffering from the
fire.
A son and daughter of Silas Graham
were taken ont dead, and Berry Sherod,
one of the most prominent residents ol
Washington county, was so badly in
iured that he has since died.
Another man, whose name has not been
learned, was also fatally hurt
Fifteen other persons were seriously
injured, but their names have not beer

was got out of the ruins. He was pinned
