TURNED ON THE GAS
A Tragedy Averted at the Con-
tinentaL
A Woman Attempts to Asphyxiate Herself
and Two Children Domestic
Troubles the Cause.

There were wild rumors afoat late last
night of suicide at the Continental.
The attaches were all interviewed. but
none had heard anything aboutit.
Policemen who had been called to the
house were as dumb as an oyster, but
finally, through mistake, one Of them let
enough drop to make It certain that there
had been q serious family disturbance.
For the sake Of the woman, whom l
believe is more sinned against than
sinning.n said guardian OF the peace at
? 80 this morning. 81 shall not mention
any names, but this much l will say
There was q family row, and the woman
retired at about IL o'clock. Later there
was 3 strong ordor Of gas noticeable, and
the police were sent for. When the door
of the room was opened, the windows
were discovered raised and the gas turned
of, but l have good reason to believe that
this was done after the demand for ad-
mittance had been made.''
From other sources it was learned that
the couple has not been living on the best
of terms for some years past; that the hus-
band has neglected, if not ill-treated, his
wife, and that she finally became so des-
perate that she attempted 10 end the ex-
iste1ce of herself and little ones.
These were all the facts that could be
CLEANED last night. There msy be more
developments today.

os despa caed to the other side. The bank
liens have reached point beyond which it
is not for the interests OF the country TO
go. The last <3,500,OOO in gold shipped,
came from the treasury free gold, which
amounted to 81, Oh, 257.
Tuesday under the system heretofore
followed exporters went TO their banks TO
secure gold certificates, presenting them in
turn at the sub-treasury, obtaining the
precious metal IN each end, the effect was
TO all intents and purposes 10 take the god
out OF the banks and eat from the treasury
UNDER THE NEW PLAN
the banks refuse to pay gold certificates to
representatives of foreign houses. Instead
they pay United States and treasury notes,
the former payable in gold and the
latter in gold or silver. at the op-
ton of the treasury department. So
far gold always has been paid for them.
The bankers estimate the free gold At the
end OF this week will amount to $40, OO0, 0OO

President Henry w. Cannon OF the Chase
National bank had something to say IN the
chase Of 4, SOC, 600 ounces hf silver q month.
He regarded it rs a very wise move, es-
pecially as he understood the senator had a
financial scheme which he proposed to pre-
sent IN connection with the repeal of tbs
act or to follow it. The repeal would, in
his Judgment, be beneficial to the prospects
for q successful international monetary
COME renee. The act of the bankers refus-
Ing to 1--WE gold certificates to exporters
was nte ided as q patriotic act Cannon
explained that the bankers thought tns
time had come when the United States
should protect its supply OF gold as other
nations had protected theirs, and should
throw as many obstacles in the way OF ex-
porters Of gold as possible; especially in
the present condition the movement made
abroad would not seem TO be a national act.
Banks had taken the step and hoped the
treasury department. so far as the law al
lowed, would erect other barrlcades against
gold shipments.

II Grover Cleveland carries the states
which gave him their electoral vote in 1884
he WIZ be the next president Of the re-
public.
Eight years sgo Mr.. Cleveland secured
the votes of all the southern states and the
four doubtful northern states. New York,
New Jersey. Connecticut and Indiana, as
well These gave him 2l9 votes In the cleo
toral college. IS against 1872 that were given
to Blaine Under the new apportionment
The representation in the electoral college
has changed from 401 to IA The winning
candidate this year must capture 223 of
q these votes or the election win be
thrown into the House. In that event
CLEVELAND WILL BE SEATED
without peradventure.
But 1t is commended that the election will
not be thrown into the House, for careful
observers Of political events believe that
Cleveland viii carry all the states carried
by him in 1854 end that II is not unlikely
Wisconsin and Montana may be added to
ths column. These two states would give
him tiftean votes to say nothing Of the six
or eight he is certain to receive under the
pew method Of choosing electors in Mich
igan.
As have said, the electoral college this
year viii consist of 444 votes, where it con-
sisted four and eight years ago of but 4O1.
This increase results first from the
twenty-three additional representatives in
Congress, to which the states are entitled,
and secondly, 10 the admission Of six new
states, which have been admitted into the
Union within the past three years, and
whose representation in the electoral col
lege amounts in the aggregate TO twenty
votes
or the twenty-three votes, which result
from the increased superintendent. the Re
publicans are largely the gamer. The
Democrats secure seven o. the number;
namely. one each in Alabama. Arkansas.
Georgia Missouri and New Jersey and
two in Texas The Republican gains are
one each in California, Colorado, Kansas,
Massachusetts, Michigan, Oregon and Wis
consin; two each in Illinois. Minnesota and

all sixteen. The following table shows the
electoral vote of four years ago and that Of

Of 100 votes would lose him the state.
There are enough disahected Office seekers
and personal enemies Of President Har-
rison in Indiana to work this change. But
there is still another influence. The
ADOPTION OF THE AUSTRALIAN BALLOT
SYSTEM
Of voting will practically abolish the pur-
chase by money OF the sfoating'' vote.
II this reprehensible practice the Re-
publicans have been the chief offenders.
No Republican politician, however. will be
foolish enough in future to buy "tloster,"
when he cannot be sure how the latter will
deposit bis vote. AS result. the election
in Indiana this year will be fairly con-
tested one and it is only the most sanguine
Republicans who affect TO believe that
Cleveland viii not carry it On the other
hand there is every reasonable assurance
that he win.
If then, Mir. Cleveland shall carry Indi-
ana and New York, his success is already
assured. He is as certain Of New Jersey
and Connecticut as be is of Florida aud
Georgia, and there is little, If any, prob
ability that the solidity Of the south will be
broken into this year at least. For the
last twenty years the Republican leaders
have been asserting their ability 70 carry
two or three of the southern states. And
at every ouadrennial election the latter
have come up smiling, SO to speak, and laid
their vote at the feet Of the Democratic
candidate for the presidency.
No, messiens Republicans, the south is
still ''solidn and the force bill will keep it
SO. The third party will do nothing there,
for It's presidential candidate, General
Weaver, is
PROFESSIONAL POLITICIAN,
who has been on every side of every great
national question since the war. He has
been by turns a Republican. a Green
hacker, a Labor Unionist, Democrat and
Farmers Alliance man. The southern
people know that vote for him is really a
vote for Benjamin Harrison, and vote for
Benjamin Harrison is a vote for the man
who would ram a force bill down their
throats the instant the power were given
him to do it.
The Republicans indulge some hope Of
carrying West Virginia, and there is some
basis for this expectation. Mr.. Cleveland
carried the state four years ago by mere
handful of votes, SOC, to be exact. How
ever, their prospect Of carrying the state
this year is no better than the Democratic
prospect of carrying Wisconsin or Mon
tana, the former of which alone has
twelve electoral votes where West Vir-
ginia has but six.
Altogether. the outlook for Democratic
success this year is as favorable as the
most jealous follower of Mr.. Cleveland
could desire.

CHICAGO, July 15.-Stsrter Sheridan lost

field of twelve went to the post. The
Duke of Milipatas could not be persuaded
to line up with the others. After many
ineffec tual attempts to start the horses
Sheridan at last concluded to leave him at
the post. When the flag went down some
of the horses were turned wrong and
others standing still and all scattered from
.he seventy-yard mark TO the wire. The
spectators broke out with u storm
OF boots and Kisses. The race was run and
Itival and Forest made dead heat for the
1rst place. The judges stand was besieged
by an angry mob demanding that bets be
declared of, but the judges refused to rule
that way. The crowd roundly abused them.

In the foregoing table 1t will he seen that
MIR. Harrison is given the electoral votes
OF Wisconsin and Montana. Both states
ought really TO be put in the doubtful COL
umn. Montana, If anything, is Demo-
cratic state, and so prominent Republican
leader as Senator Sawyer Of Wisconsin is
authority for the statement that Wisconsin
Is quite a. likely to 80 Democratic as il is
Republican.
But for the sake Of argument let US say
that Mr. Harrison will receive the electoral
vote OF both states. He would still lack
eleven votes 10 insure his election. unless
he car carry Indiana or New York. Indi-
ana,s afteen votes would insure his success
with four to spare. II be lost Indiana and
