INGALLS, LETS OUT.
The War Scare RidicuIed, and the
Navy, Too.

Navy, loo.
CHICAGO. Feb. 3.-"This whole Chill
ian imbroglio is an Illustration of the
danger of our having a navy" said
ex-senator John j. ingalls, at the
Grand Pacific today. Here the
Baltimore was in the harbor
of Valparaiso, where she had no bust
ness to be. She had right to be there.
to be sure, and being there our flag and
uniform were entitled to respect. but
were on shore and got into an alterca-
ton, Had they and their ship
been where they ought to
have been. in the harbor of
San Francisco, New York. Boston, or
some other American seaport, they
would not have been hurt. But the Of
ficialS wanted to make show of action,
and they Sc Mt the Baltimore to Valpar-
also, where she had no business. as they
sent the rest Of the fleet to other places
where they have no business.
1.-The supposititious trouble with Chill
was manufactured by people who have
a direct interest i'll securing big ap-
preparation from congress to build an
expensive, useless and unnecessary
navy. 1t was the annual war scare
WHICH IS EOlteu up ny those same
people just about the beginning of every
congress. The scare is always based
ON some trifiing incident in itself of no
Importance and out of the question as a
casus belli. Now just watch the course
of events and see if congress is
not asked to appropriate. forty or
fifty millions for navy, which
will only get us into trouble,
just as the Baltimore did. There is no
necessity for this country sending lot
of war ships staggering around the
earth saying the United States must be
respected. The United States is re-
spected without any bullying of that
sort

20 MORE LOTTERY.
John A. Morris and Associates
Will Quit.

New ORLEANS, Feb. 3.-The follow
ing letter will explain itself:
New Orleans, La, Feb. $50 the
people of louisiana: In the spring of
1883 l was at different times approached
by number of prominent Democrats
of Louisiana. who urged upon me the
propriety, in the interest of the
finances of the state, of submit
ting to the legislature a PROPOSE
ton for a constitutional amendment
which would grant to me and my as
sociates lottery privilege Tor twenty
five years in consideration of license
sufficiently high to be of material assist
ance to the state. These suggestions
prompted me to announce to the peo-
pie of Louisiana that / would
apply for such a charter, and
would give the sum of $500, 900
per annum as license tax. Until had
announced that | would make such a
proposition to the state there had been
no opposition manifested toward the
continued existence of lottery Ill
Louisiana. After had publicly sub
mitted my offer to the people, and had
committed myself to its terms, to
my surprise some of the prominent
men who had approached me on this
subject and who had urged me to make
such proposition, became opponents
of the project and aided in organizing
public hostility against it. Realizing
thoroughly, my associates and l, that
we have been incorrect in our opinion
of public sentiment on this question of
new charter, / hereby declare
upon my part and upon the part of my
associates that we would not accept or
qualify under amendment now pending,
even were it to be adopted by the peo-
pie at the general election of April
next. As the supreme court of the
United States has decided the anti-lot-
terry postal law to be constitutional, it is
my purpose, and that of my associates,
to respect that law and abstain from
violating it iii any manner.
Convinced that the granting of an
other lottery charter in the state would
be the cause of continued agitation and
discomfort upon the part of number of
citizens of Louisiana for the entire pc
riod for which charter might be
granted, we would be unwilling to &C
cept such a charter, even though it was
given to us without the payment Of one
dollar of license tax.

A MURDERER'S DREAM.
Results OF Its Relation Likely to
Prove Unpleasant.

WILMINGTON, Del, Feb. 3.-The trial
of Walter Blackburn. young married
man, on the charge of numbering his
brotherin-law. Edward H. Gardiner,
aged eight years, began this morning.
The case in some respects remarkable
one. On Oct. IA last the boy Gardiner
was missed when night came on, and it
was supposed that he had followed the
parade. The next day Blackburn mar
rated to several persons an alleged
dream that he had had during an
afternoon nap. He said that he
dreamed that his little brother-in-
law was lying dead in freight
car which stood ON the siding at the foot
of Fifth street. Blackburn told this
story to his wife among others, and then
headed a searching party. They went
to some empty box cars on the siding,
and in one of them was found the boy
with his neck broken. The family was
not satisfied, and Blackburn's arrest
followed. Some months previous to the
death of the boy he was inveigled into
a freight car which stood on the same
siding where his body was found, and
brutally treated by a ruffian, who was
sent to Jail for six months. A jury was
secured. Annie Gardiner. mother of
the dead boy, detailed the finding of the
body. Blackburn handed the body out
to the woman, who charged him with
the boys death. The prisoner made no
reply.

charges will not be disclosed by the In
dian department officials. They are of
such nature, however, that an inspect
or has been sent to White Earth to IN
vestigate. Senators Washburn and
Davis claim to know nothing as to the
nature of the charges. Senator Wash
burn said this afternoon that he did not
know that any had been made. He said
Mr.. Shuler called on him yesterday,
but said nothing in reference
to any charges from Hall. Sena-
tor Washburn says he has kept
out of the row. and does not intend to
become mixed up in il. Col. Hill, chief
of the Indian division in the interior
department. said this afternoon that
Bishop Gilbert had also preferred
charges against Shuler. Mr.. Hill said
he felt satisfied that if the bishop made
the charges he was positive he could
back them up. Hill says Mr.. Shuler is
charged with INSTRUMENTATION and lack
of tact in the management of the In
dams under his supervision.

Gov. Thayer's friends announced that
he would surrender the gubernatorial
chair to Gov. Boyd on demand. Today
they say nothing. In reply to taunt
today, Gen. Webster. rhayer's attor-
ney, retorted: Were not through

further trouble. Tonight it is stated
from unquestionable authority that
Webster will, at as late date as per-
Missile. file motion in the supreme
court for rehearing of the case. This
will operate as a stay to the mandate
from that court and allow Thayer to
hold on until the motion is disposed of.
Thayer is being roundly denounced by
Republicans and Democrats for his ac-
ton after publicly stating that lie would
obey the court at once.

persons were thrown from their beds by
the force of the explosion. A great
crowd soon collected ct the scene of the
explosion and the general sentiment
seemed to be that the men who had
committed the deed had waited until
the car was well loaded with the hated
''scabS" and then fired the mine" with
the hope of killing seyera. of the men.
The belief is general that the deed
was done by some over Jealous synpa-
thizer OF the strikers. All along the
sympathy of the citizens of Manchester
and Woods Run has been with the
strikers, but this mornings affair is not
only regretted put condemned by the
residents. Expressions of censure were
heard from all sources. and while the
strikers may not have been instru-
mental in the matter, yet it was consid-
cred bad for their cause.

A WIGWAM GOES.
The Windy City Must Erect One

CHICAGO. Feb. 3.-The local commit
tee of Democrats to provide for the
coming national convention has at last
abandoned all hope of securing the in
terstate exposition building in which to
hold the convention. Chairman Hesing,
of the committee, has been informed by
the architects that the use or the expo
sition building would delay the con-
structiOn of the new art institute build
ing, which must be built on the expoSi-
ton building site before the world fair
opens.
This information has had the effect of
putting stop to all talk of the exposi-
ton building, and the committee has
decided to build a wigwam capable of
seating $1,000 people. A committee,
consisting of H. l.. Wilkinson, Charles
Kern, Walter Hogle and j. w. Richards,
was appointed to select a site. 1t is

EPIDEMIC OF MURDERS.
Johnstown, Pa, and Vicinity Is
Greatly Excited.


Greatly Excited.
YOUNGSTOWN, Pa, Feb. 3.-Nothing
since the awful food in the spring of
1889 has caused SO much alarm as a
series of mysterious murders that have
been committed within a radius Of
twelve miles. Apparently all the FIVE
murders were done by one hand. but SO
far detectives have been unable to dis
cover its owner. On Dec. the body of
a well known man was found in the
woods near GallitZen with bullet hole
in his head. The remains were those
of prosperous looking man. The
theory of suicide which at first pre-
vailed was dispelled by the position in
which the body was found. No clue
could be obtained as to his identity. and
he was buried.
A week later the body of another
man was found about twelve miles
away with hole through his head.
About this time it was learned that
George Myers, prosperous citizen of
Frugailty. had disappeared, and the
body was identified as his. Myers had
$500 on his person when he left home.
and he had been murdered for his
money.
Less than week ago the decomposed
body of another man was found in the
woods near Bethel The clothes were
of good quality, but nothing could be
discovered to establish his identity. The
horrible butchery OF old man Kring and
his wife and the cremation of their
bodies few nights ago is attributed to
the same mysterious murderer. who is
evidently hiding in the mountains
ready to pounce upon any victim whom
he supposes has money.

INTERSTATE COMMERCE.
Col. Mcknight Explains Injustice
to His Road.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 3.-The senate
committee on interstate commerce today
heard arguments upon the amendments
proposed to be made to the interstate
commerce law at the suggestion of the
commission. A number of representa-
tives OF railroads were present. inciud-
ing ex-senator Sewell and Mr.. Gray, for
the Pennsylvania railroad, and Mr..
Mcknight. of the Northern Pacific. S.
H. Gray. OF Camden. \. j, representing
the West Jersey railroad system, coop
Grating with the Pennsylvania system.
was the first person to address the conf
mittee, and at the conclusion of Mr..
Gray's argument Mr.. Raymond, men,
Der of the National Board of Trade, pre-
Sented the resolutions adopted by that
body last week, urging congress to
adopt legislation calculated to strength
ell the interstate commerce law and the
commission.
James Mcknight, solicitor for the
Northern Pacific railroad, argued that
theipending bill proposed an infringe
ment by the executive authority upon
the proper functions of the judicial
branch. 1t went further in the direc
ton of Capitalization than even he-a
Republican--cOuld venture to follow.
1t deprived a party of the right of a
jury trial and held the courts simply to
a review of the law without authority to
review facts. He also feared that by
the re-enactment of the section of the
existing act relative to foreign transport
tatiOn of American traffic, the courts
would be obliged to uphold the decision
of the commission in favor of the Cana
dian Pacific railroad. His company
wonld like the same right of rate-fnak-
ing as the Canadian Pacific enjoyed at
competitive points.
Mr.. Knapp, one of the interstate COM
merce commissioners, addressed the
com mittee briefly in answer to some of
the points made by the speakers, point
ing out what he said were the fallacies
and telling of the experience of the
commission in endeayoring to prosecute
its inquiries and enforce conclusions.
There was never any dispute as to the
facts in case before the commission.
Unless the commissions decisions were
given legal weight there would be no
CON plants made to it. because ag-
grIeved parties would be discouraged
by the inevitable suit in court to follow
an order III their favor. The result
would be that the commission would
become merely collector citrate sheets.
