EMMONS BLAINE DEAD
The End Came Suddenly Yes
terday Afternoon.
Blood Poisoning the Cause-A Terrible Blow
to the interchangeable Fam
lily Frustrated.

CHICAGO, June 1S-Emmons Blaine, son
of ex-Secretary Blaine, died at his resi-
dence in this city this afternoon. He had
been i'll several days of blood poisoning
resulting from disorder of the bowels
The fact of the death was concealed for
some time, with the object of reaching his
father with the news in less shocking
manner than by public announcement.
The efforts to get Geographic commuuica-
ton with him failed. however, and at IL rs
the news became public.
1t was only quar- er of an hour before
the fatal end came that the least intima-
tion that young Blaine was in dangerous
condition became known, and then only TO
few of his most intimate friends. at
the Baltimore & Ohio railroad headquarters
in this city his associates were only aware
that he was ill and had been SO for several
days.
Young Blaine YVES notable figure ia the
exciting scenes il connection With his
fathers candidacy at Minneapolis, and
took his fathers defeat greatly to heart.
He was continei to mis- bed shortly after
his return from the north. 1t is thought
possible that the strain and excitement at
Minneapolis followed by his keen disap-
pointment at the outcome had not little
10 do with the prostration ensuing.
The death occurred in the home of
Blaine's father-in Jaw, Cyrus H. McCor
mick, only his wife, son and Mrs. McCor-
mick being present. Death came so sud
denly that there was not time to summon
the other members of the family.
Strenuous efforts were made during the
night and this morning TO get message to
the Hon. James G. Blaine and his wife,
who are at Bar Harbor, Me, telling them
OF their sons critical condition, but the
telegraph companies were unable to get the
message through. A member Of the Nc
Cormick family, explaining why informa
tion of young Blaine's death was withheld,
said at was feared it would be death
blow to all the members of the Blaine
family to receive the dreadful news with
out preparation"
Emmons Blaine was vice. president Of
the Baltimore & Ohio railroad company
and came to Chicago recently to take
charge of its western interests. His we'd
ding In New York to Miss Anita McCor-
mick, daughter of the great reaper manu-
facturer, was a social event Of the first

Accompanying the above is the following
straight-from-the-sh shoulder endorsement:
The undersigned respectfully represent
that they together in 1891 visited the terri
tory of Utah, in the interest of the Demo
cratic party; that the object OF our visit
was TO examine political conditions, and to
organize the Democratic society OF Utah:
that while we were in the said territory
meetings were held at Logan. Ogden, Salt
Lake and Provo, and each of
said meetings was addressed by
some one of our members; that
at Salt Lake City, at q general convention
held for that purpose, the Democratic
Society OF Utah was formed; that Henry
p. Henderson was elected president aud A.
t. Schroeder was elected secretary: that
said society was formed as auxiliary to the
regular Democratic Organization in the ter
ritory, Of which Sam'l a. Merritt was
chairman from the central committee and
a. q. Norrell was secretary; that from our
observations in said territory we have no
hesitation whatever in declaring it to be
our belief aud understanding that the reg
ular Democratic organization of the terri
tory is the one of which Sam'l A. Merritt
was formerly chairman and A. c. Norrell

ally led by Literati, who wrecked the mia
sionary buildings and put the foreign resi-
dents in danger Of their lives.

the church Of England were insulted aud

chief magistrates house, which the mob
surrounded, aud the frightened Yamen
sent the ladies' away.

were wrecked and DR.. Rigg YVES dragged
out by four soldiers ostensibly sent by a
local mandarin to protect the place. Riggs
made his way out amid shower Of bricks,
stones and sticks. Not satisfied. however,
the mob tried to throw him into vat OF
liquid offal Riggs finally escaped with
his clothes all torn and minus his watch
and chain. The native students and pa
tents were robbed of all their possessions.

A NEW KIND OF WAR
The Town of Suggs Attacked By
Soldiers.
Two Citizens KilIed-The Rustler War Re
sumed-Bets as to Where the First
Killing Would Occur.

CHEYENNE, Wyo., June 49, Special
telegram to THE HERALD. Brief and IN
certain dispatches received here from Buff
falo tonight tell of a new variety of war in
the northern country. On Friday night
SQUAD of sixteen soldiers made war on the
town of Scggs and killed TWO citizens.
One of the attacking party was wounded.
Messengers were sent to Buffalo and other
places to summon aid for the defence of
tie town.
These soldiers were from the camp of q
large body of cavalry sent to camp on
Powder river to discourage any further
conflict between rustlers and cattle men.
All who have been against the latter since
hostilities opened in April will fly to the
relief of Suggs and her people.
This town is at the point where the Bur
lington- Sheridan extension will cross Pow
der river. 1t was started about SIX weeks
ago and has been a hummer. Fighting and
drinking have been the pastimes.
On the second Sunday evening the tent
jail contained 200 prisoners. Jack Bell, an
old partner of Jack F'lagg, the rustler
leader, is city marshal
In one gambling house book was made
when the killing would take place.
Officers here figure that the trouble at
Suggs was simply the result of whisky
feasting Its effect. however, viii be to
renew the trouble of April. The rustler
element has feared that martial law would
be declared, and many of them will believe
this is a part of the campaign of the cattle
men against thieves.
ONLY TWO WERE KILLEE.
BUFFALO, Wyo., June 1S.-A telegram 10
the sheriff from Suggs says that the town
was attacked last night by fifteen or six
teen soldiers. Two soldiers were killed
and one citizen wounded. Help Is re-
quested for the citizens. The telegram is
signed by Frank Morris, deputy sheriff,
and Jack Bell, marshal. Later informa-
ton by courier says the soldiers fired
without warning. The object of the at
tack is unknown

THE MINNESOTA CYCLONE.
Reports Of the Number Killed Are Greatly
Exaggerated.

WINNEBAeo, MINI, June 1S.-The re-
ports of loss of life and property in the late
cyclone in this vicinity are greatly exag-
gerated. No one was killed within fifteen
miles of this city, and only one house de-
molished within five miles of here. No
children were killed in the school house at
Sherburne, but twelve were hurt, though
none seriously.
A messenger from Wells says only three
were killed in that neighborhood. Every
point in the path of the storm has been
heard from, and a conservative estimate
puts the number of killed at five, instead of
fifty, as at first reported. The loss of prop
erty is not nearly as great as first reported.
