MAY LOSE HER VOTE.
Flaw Discovered In Kentucky's Election
Law.

Law.
LOUISVILLE, KY, Aug. 19.-In the gen.
eral mixing up of things, due to the fail
ure of the legislature to pass number
of bills by a constitutional majority,
there is danger that the electoral vote
of Kentucky will be thrown out in
the approaching presidential contest. A
number of amendments to the election
bill failed to receive majority vote in
the Senate, and, if Gov. Browns con-
struction of the constitution is adhered
to by the courts, serious trouSle may
result, since the entire bill may be de-
ciared unconstitutional.
The national election law makes tie
governor. secretary of state and attor-
ney-general the canvassing board for
the state In presidential elections. In
the famous Tlden-Hayes contest it was
held that there could be no going behind
the returns; that the decision of the
state board was final and its certificate
of election authorized the electors to
vote. A contest, therefore, might be
made before the state board, or that
body might be enjoined from count
ing the vote at all, and the
whole matter transferred to the courts
on the question Of the constitutionality
Of the election law. There might be
great deal of delay, and in case of 8 de-
cision that the law was defective Ken
lucky might lose her vote altogether.
The legal opinion is that the Governors
position is right, and a grave danger ex-
lists in the fact that the bill as it now
stands is unconstitutional.
Gov. Brown has not yet signified what
action he will take, but it is believed he
will reconvene the legislature at once.

TROUBLE WITH TURKEY,
Attack Upon an American Missionary il
Asia Minor.

Asia Minor.
WASHINGTON, D. c., Aug. 19.-The sec
rotary Of state to-day received a cable
gram from the United States charge
d'attaires at Constantinople, informing
him the house of Or. Bartlett. an
province of Konia, Asia Minor, has
been burned, and that the lives of the
missionaries are in danger He believes
that If prompt action is not taken the
missionary cause and lives OF mission
aries will be in serious danger in other
places.
The building of DR.. Bartlett's resi-
dence was originally stopped by the To-
cal authorities. On application being
made for permission to complete the
same it was refused, unless DR.. Bartlett
would furnish bond or guarantee to
neither hold religious worship nor
instruct children on the premi-
ses. The withholding of the per-
NIT was said to be under or.
ders from Constantinople. The lega-
ton applied to the sublime porte for
such permission, claiming that treaty
rights of Americans extended not only
to the purchase of land, but to the en-
ioyment of the same. The permit was
finally granted by the sultan and it ap-
pears that Immediately after the receipt
of this permit by the local authorities
the house was burned.
Secretary Foster promptly cabled the
charge to make urgent demand for pro-
lection, indemnity, punishment OF the
guilty parties and reprimand of the au-
thorities if found remiss. The United
States cruisers Newark and Bennington,
now on their way to Genoa, will be or
dered to the vicinity of the outrage to
support this demand.

Union Prices for Union Music.

CHICAGO, ILL.,, Aug. 21.-There is a
serious split among the trades unions
and the chances are that there
will be two parades, and possibly
trouble on Labor day. The diff
ficulty arises from the action of the Chi
cago musicians union demanding 81
per man for Labor day, instead of So as
heretofore. The laboring men who are
to act as the capitalists and foot the pa
rade expenses, object to the increase,
and have made arrangements with nom
union bands. Others will pay the price
asked, and much bitter feeling has been
engendered.

LIZZIE STUBER AT HOME.

Some People Think Her Disappearance e
Was the Result Of a Conspiracy.
SALEM, ILL.,, Aug. 20.-Lizzie Stuber
has been found in Washington County
and is now at her home in Roman
Township. She went away of her own
accord, she says, but some persons
think there was a conspiracy to create
the impression that she was muir
dered SO that an enemy of hers would
possibly be arrested on a charge of MUIR
der. The shots heard the day she dis
appeared were shot by squirrel hunters
and the hair found was some false locks
with which Lizzie was wont to adorn
herself. Startling developments are
expected, as the people are bound to
learn all about the girl's going away.

Mixed Up with tho constitutional Que
~


Mixed Up with tho Constitutional Ques-
tion-How Both Factions fooI.
ALBANY, N. Y, Nov. 23.-Everywhere
that the senatorial fight is discussed
here, men are talking about the effect
the constitutional convention will have
on it. Out OF the fusion of a strong
sentiment against it the constitutional
convention is evolving. Put it of until
next fall is the advice OF the leaders OF
both factions. 0Ordinarily the conven-
ton would meet during the coming
summer. The law provides for tho
election Of 12S district delegates and
thirty-two at large, with eight TO be up.
pointed by the governor. To follow 1t
out would require a special election,
which would cost every county fully as
much as the general election Just closed.
The total expense OF such IN election
was figured by Mr.. Hill when governor
at S629,0O0. Besides the expense, there
will be political turmoil without end,
coming right along with the senatorial
contest aud the heat OF legislative strife.
The so.called machine does not want
this for it has enough ahead now. The
anti-snappers object TO it because they
think will be in better shape for the
fight for delegates later or SO it seems
likely that tho legislature will change
the law and put off the convention q
little longer.
