Testimony in the Old Orchard Divorce
Case Heard in Saco.

SAco, January 27.-Judge Virgin, in
the Supreme Court, has been engaged to-
day in hearing the testimony in the di-
vorce suit brought by Charles FL. Fiske
of Old Orchard The chief allegation
of the libel is the charge of criminal in
timacy between Mrs. FislSe and a person
unknown, at the Gilsey House in New
York, last October. Among the LIBEL
lant's witnesses was a detective, who tes-
titled that he forced his way into a room
in the hotel, and found the parties in
question. Mrs. Fisze denies the charge.
She admits that she was found in the
room in the Gilsey House, but not in
compromising circumstances, She says
that the man with her was a detective,
Walter S. Sherman of Boston, who had
witnesses in the room at the time, and
who had resorted to this strategy to spoil
Fiske's plot Detective Sherman corrob-
grated Mrs. Fiske's testimony, and said
he had been previously hired by Fiske to
watch his wife, but, becoming satisfied
she was being wronged, planned this
scheme to trap the husband. Sherman's
testimony was corroborated by Mr.. and
Mrs. Provost of New York, who claim
they were his witnesses in the Gilsey
House affair. The testimony was fin
ished tonight, and decision is expected
tomorrow.
Hon. M. P. Frank Of Portland ap-
peared as counsel for the hbellantt

They Want Free Wool.

BosroN, January 27.-The American
Wool and Cotton Reporter will tomorrow
print petition to Congress in support
of the Springer bill, changing schedule
K, relating to wool and woolens, in the
tariff act Of $780, The petition is signed
by the executive committee of the Wool
Consumers Association. 1t claims that
the act of 1890, as applied to wool and
woolens, 'aggravates some of the worst
and most oppressive features Of the for
mer acts relating to wool. The petition
favors free raw materials. The petition
says: ''Readjustment of the tariff on
the basis of free wool, is perfectly sim
pie, and it needs but the removal of the
duties on wool and a corresponding re-
duction of the duties on goods, put on to
offset the cost of the wool duties. 1t is
absurd to say that because the duty is
taken off one article, free trade must
follow. High duties for quarter of a
century have failed to produce any car
pet wool in this country, and also failed
to produce an adequate supply of wools
needed for woolen and worsted manufac-
ture"

ALL SORTS or PLANkS

They Want Uncle Sam to Run the Rail-
roads and Would Keep American Land
for Americans-The Platform VIII Be
Presented to the st. Louis Convention
form and Prohibition Party Lead
ers.
CHICAGO, January 27,-The Reform
conference today adopted an address and
appointed a committee to present it to
the ST. Louis convention on February
%. The address states that it expresses
the concensus Of opinion of the informal
gathering of the members of the Peoples
Prohibition and National Reform par
ties. II favors the consolidation of all
political elements in behalf of these is
sues:
''First-Money should be issued by the
general government without the inter-
vention of any private institution, in suf-
ficient quantity to cary on the business
of the country, and such money
should be full legal tender for all debts
public and private.
''Second-The saloon is the great enemy
of reform in these matters and the chief
cause of the fountain of corruption in our
politics. We denounce its pernicious in
fiuence upon our country and demand its
suppression.
F"rhird-Au means of public transport
alton and communication should be con-
trolled by the government to obtain for
all the people equal and equitable advan-
tages in such services. If the effort to so
control said means of transportation and
communication shall prove impractical
bic, we favor government ownership OF
the same.
''Fourth-We are opposed to specula-
ton in land and alien ownership of the
same and demand reasonable lilnita-
ton of the amount of land that can be
owned by any corporation or individual.
s'Fifth-We favor municipal suffrage for
women, with educational qualification. A."

RUssIA's REIGN OF TERROR.
Doctors Threatened by the Ignorant
Peasantry as in the Cholera Epidemic.

ST. PETERSBURG, January 27.-Ad-
vices received here from the government
of Voronesh show that matters in that
part of the famine stricken districts are
going from bad to worse. The peasants
have become exasperated by their suf-
ferings from hunger and sickness and, in
a blind unreasoning way, have turned
their resentment against the doctors for
the latters failure to effect cures. The
same course was followed during the
cholera epidemic which ravaged that
part of the empire. The doctors, hav-
ing before them the memory of the fate
of the medical men in the cholera years,
have fed in terror from the ignorant
peasantry.
In many villages in Veronesh, the
military have been called upon to sup
press disorders. In one instance, the
Zenski Matchalnik appealed to the
military to preserve order in his district,
,whereupon the peasants sent deputa-
ton to him and a very plain intimation
that if the soldiers touched single per-
son, they would burn Matchalnik's S
house and kill him and the members of
his family. Troops have been sent in
response to the request of the Zenski,
but the threats of the deputation had
such an effect upon him that he prayed
the officer in charge of the troops to de-
part quietly with his command.

MR., REED DEMONSTRATED.
He interrupted Speech on "Czarism"
and Brought Down the House.

WASHINGTON, january 27.-The House
today resumed the consideration of the
new code of rules. Mr.. Dearmond of
Missouri spoke in favor of the commit
tee report, and criticised the rulings of
Speaker Reed in the last Congress. Mr..
Hooker of Mississippi, though in gener-
al advocacy of the proposed code, ex-
pressed himself in favor of appointing
sssteerine'' committee of Is members,
who should decide whatmeasures should
be brought to the attention of the House
This was too large a power to vest in the
committee on rules.
Mr.. Watson of Georgia laid down the
principles of the Farmers Alliance par
ty. In the course of his remarks, Mr..
Watson referred to the "czarism'' of Mr..
Reed in the last Congress. This allusion
oaye rise to much merriment growing
principally from the fact that Mr.. Wat
son was standing in the aisle directly in
front of the ex-Speaker. The latter
looked rp with a benevolent smile and
with a serio-comic air demonstrated with
the speaker for the sentence. Mr.. Wat
son. continuing, criticised the rules for
comforting too much power upon the
Speaker. No such power should be con-
ferred upon any speaker, whether his
name began with ''C'' and he came from
Georgia, or whether it began with ''R''
and he came from Maine. Applause].
Debate upon the rules was continued
by Mr.. Dingley of Maine, Mr.. McCreary,
Mr.. Davis of Kentucky, Mr.. Bynum of
Indiana, Mr.. Simpson of Kanras, Mr..
Funston of Kansas, and Mr.. Lodge of
Massachusetts,, after which the House
adjourned until tomorrow.
Mr.. Martin Wants to Know,
WASHINGTON, January 27.-Mr. Mar
tin of Indiana in the House today offered
a resolution calling on the President to
transmit to the House all correspondence
had by him and by all other public off
cials of the United States, including the
officers of the, United States navy with
each other and with any public officials
of Chill upon matters concerning the
republic of Chill during Balmaceda's
regime and since the overthrow of that
regime and as to all matters of public
affairs of both the United States and
Chill growing out of or connected with
the existence, beginning and overthrow
of the Balmacedan regime and the estab-
lishment and continuance of the present
government of Chill.
This was referred to the committee on
foreign affairs.

PRAISED THE BALMAcEDlsTs.
An officer of she Baltimore Accused Of
Disobeying Orders.

BALTIMORE, January 27.-The Herald
says that while the cruiser Baltimore
was lying in the harbor of Valparaiso,
her chief executive officer sent daily dis
patches to New York newsp aper CIV
ing news of doings in Chilli
These dispatches uniformly praised
the Balmaceda government, pre-
dieting it's ultimate victory. The
officer in question, when called before
Commander Schley admitted that he was
paid Valparaiso correspondent. He
was suspended for ten days and ordered
to his quarters. His acting as cores
pondent was in direct disobedience OF
Commander Schley's orders.

LAWRENCE, Mass, January 27.-Gen-.
eral Manager James T. Furber of the
Boston & Maine railroad, died at 7.40
this evening. The crisis came as the
afternoon turned to early evening, and
the best medical aid failed to bridge
over the critical point. The heart
weakened under the terrible strain and
at 6 o'clock the physicians knew that
death was near. For over an hour every
possible aid was rendered the invalid,
but all proved unavailing and at shortly
after Z the hearts action had almost
ceased, Total collapse soon followed.
With unfailing courage, MI. Furber
clung to life until nature could stand no
more. The end was very peaceful and
apparently painless. The crisis in the
illness was fastened by severe attack
of pleurisy, which commenced abont the
middle of the afternoon. The shattered
condition of his system would not per-
nit the necessary stimulant, and con-
sequently it was impossible to render
much needed relief. Railroad friends of
Mr.. Furber, and his family were at his
bedside when he died.

occurrence and utter disavowal of any
i'll feeling toward the American uniform
worn by our sailors. The dispatch IN
effect says: 1T is not necessary to sub
nit this thing to the Supreme Court, but
in order to show you our feeling towards
you, we are willing to submit it to your
Supreme Court They withdraw the
request for Minister Egan's withdrawal
and speak of the Malta note as anerror OF
judgment. They are willing to meet

''But What About the Apology We De-
manded?"
again interrupted member of Con-
gress.
II cannot say it is made in specific
FORM" replied Mr.. Blount, ''but the
whole augmentation and declaration Of
feeling and regret, the action taken by
the government to have the guilty par
ties arrested-all these illustrations are
given as to their feelings in an attempt
to exhaust the idea that there was any
hostility toward us. While the apology
may not be put in diplomatic language,
the dispatch is just as full and complete
in regret of the whole affair as it could
be. | tell you the bottom is out of it,
that's all. The administration would
not have straw to stand on, if it con-
tinued to make demands with that dis
patch in it's face. But 1 have no idea
they are going to force it any further.
No one can read the entire correspon-
dence. gentlemen, without feeling the
utmost sympathy at the almost huinilia-
ting attitude of the Chilian govern
ment."
s'Will your committee on foreign af-
fairs meet tomorrow the chairman
was asked.
Eyes, but it will have nothing to do
now, of course"
There has been much speculation as to
the time the administration received the
first intimation of Chili's apology and
concessions. Chairman Blount said:
Gas I understand it, the dispatch from
Chill was received by the administration
early Tuesday morning. AT half past
ten, had information from the Presi-
dent by confidential message that the
dispatch had been received from Chill al
the State Department but had not been
translated. So Chili's answer was not re-
ceived until the morning following the
transmission of the Presidents message
to Congress.

WAR TALK IN SANTIAGO.
Naval Officers Would See Their Ships
Sunk Sooner Than Apologize.

Sunk Sooner Ih2n Apologize
SANTIAGO, via Galveston, January n.
The text of Chilrs reply to President
Harrison's ultimatum is waited on all
sides with intense interest. The sub
stance of it, as indicated in the Associat-
ed Press despatch, appears to meet with
general approval from the intelligent
classes. The news that President Harri-
son sent special message to Congress
Monday, and the dispatches published
here describing the attitude of the Amer
lean public, have caused no little popu-
lar excitement here. The various Incl
dents in the controversy between the two
governments have been the sole topics of
conversation in all circles. The young
and hot-headed portion of thespublic in
dulges in much war talk, and declares
that it prefers fighting to apology. Such
talk, it is believed, reflects the opinion
of large clement of the common peo-
pie Naval officers, it is reported, say
they would see the Chilian fleet sunk be-
fore they would salute the American
flag. There are abundant indications
that Senior Matta's popularity will not be
decreased because of his authorship Of

tions have been actively going on by q

Europe and the Vatican.

ROME, January PA few days ago
Cardinal Seralfno Vanutelli had an in
terview with the Pope on the subject of
a reconciliation between the Holy See
and Italy. The interview was prompted
by the Emperor of Austria, Austria, it
is understood, asks of the Pope the par
ticipation of Catholics in italian parlia-
mentary elections and the modification
of the present favorable attitude of the
Holy See towards France. Austria also
wants to change her inimicable attitude
towards the Vatican to more
friendly one, and to end the
religious persecution of the Catholics.
The italian court and government have
signifed their approval of rapproch-
ment on the lines laid down. King Hum
bert and his ministers, however, insist
that the Catholics should first open the
way by participation at the polls. Pope
Leo has promised TO consider the az
rangement proposed.
PARIS, January 27.-Cardinal Richard,
Archbishop of Paris, has written the
Pope that he is unable to communicate

that they follow to the utmost the Pope S
policy of conciliation.
