seized her by the arm and under threats
of instant death compelled her to get

On the way to the station Balm told her
that heawould remove the gag, but said
that II she made q single move to escape

horrible manner at her home at 4 o'clock
p. m. The crime Is the most atrocious
in the criminal history Of Chicago. Tho
methods for the murder were those of

ployed. When Walsh came homo to

Of his wife on the door. destitute of
clothing excepting pair ct shoes. a
pair Of scissors was sticking up to the
hilt through her right breast and by
actual count there were sixty-fiye
Jagged stabs In her body. One great
gash across the abdomen allowed the
intestines to protrude. The most hid
cons part Of the crime va
discovered when portion ~

body. This, with wounds about the
woman's loina, gave the butchery I
startling ressmblAnce to those Of the
Ripper nend. The police were at oncs
notified and soon made the discovery
that Thomas Walsh, nephew Of the dead
woman, had besn At the house nearly

Palacio Becomes Argressivs.

NEW YoRK, May 5.--A special dis
patch to The Herald from Barcelona,
VensEuela, says Palacio has sent an
army from the capitol to engage the
enemy. A battle may be expected soon
south of Caracas. The object of the
president in this move seems to draw
the revolutionists away from Valencia
and Calabozo, which they now sur
round, preventing communication be-
tween the government generals Ybarra,
Aranjo and Casanas, who are located in
this town and the capitol. If Palacio's
forces should prove victorious they will
undoubtedly march to the relief Of the
besisgsd city. Palacio seems to have
arrived 1T the conclusion that he must
act aggressively or the federalists will
become 90 powerful that they will
sweep all before them.

Clash of Authority Concerning the Pres
ident's Quarantine PrOcIamation-The
Situation in New York and on the Other
Side of the Atlantic.
NEW YORK, Sept 5.-The American
Druggist says:
A great many people are giving
themselves unnecessary trouble about
cholera. The disease is only formidable
where inadequate means exist for grap-
pling with it, and in this country we are
fully prepared for it. Deficient and i'm
pure water supply is the primary cause
of its origin in Asia. Dirt, ignorance
and warm weather are the principal
transmitters of the disease. In Madras
and Calcutta, India, the writer has seen
a large mortality from cholera among
the poorer classes. where unsanitary
conditions prevailed, while imm ediately
around them Europeans and natives
who observed ordinary precautions in
food and drink were wholly free from
the disease. Boiling kills all cholera
germs, and hence it is well, during the
cholera epidemic, to boil all water and
milk. Canned goods are also safe diet
at such q time, if used at once
on opening, owing to the boiling
they receive in processing the cans when
being packed, which effectually sterilizes
the contents. While it may be well
enough to quarantine the low class of i'm
migrants that have been reaching us
from the infected districts in Russia and
Germany, or shut them out altogether
for time, there is no sense in people be-
ing any more panicky here than they
have been in France and Spain, where
the cholera has prevailed more or less
for several years. The visitation is like.
ly to be less serious here from the fact
that we are just entering the cooler
months of the year, when cholera germs
are naturally comparatively harmless.
Consumption, diphtheria and typhoid
fever are likely to slay thousands while
cholera is Staying hundreds, but because
we are familiar with these diseases we
are not afraid of them. Hundreds Of
children die in this city every week from
cholera infantum superinduced by bad
milk, but little thought is given to it.
No person need fear cholera if he exer.
.cises ordinary care in diet, cleanliness
and sanitary surroundings.

Clash of Authority.

NEW YORK, Sept. 5.-Health Officer
Jenkins, of New York, will not obey the
presidents circular. He will use his own
discretion about quarantining vessels,
and will detain them twenty days or
not, as he pleases. His declaration is
based on decision of the attorney gen.
eral of New York, who, it is claimed, is
seeking notoriety by endeavoring to
show that the federal order is an
invasion of the states rights.
Several Died on the Ocean.
Several deaths from cholera are re-
ported on the Rugia during passage, and
a number of cases are on board. Five
