BARON FAvA COMING BACK.
Tho Kindliest Feeling Now Prevails In

Tho KindlIest Feeling Now Prevails In
Italy Toward America.
WASHINGTON, April 19,-Prof. Il. r.
Fava, Jr., son of Baron Fava, speaking
of the report that his father had been
ordered back to Washington, said that
his fathers acceptance depended on his
own disposition. He is satisfied, how
ever, that he will return to Washington,
and bring the baroness with him. 1t was
stated that owing to the mixed con-
dition of politics in Europe at this time
there were other diplomatic missions
which Baron Fava could have if he
liked. The baron has recently been adj
vaHced to the highest rank in the diplo-
matte branch. Prof. Fava regrets the
criticism of his fathers action in leaving
Washington by the press of America,
and denies the truth of the charge
that the baron was ignorant of
the laws of the United States.
He left Washington against his will,
and only under positive orders from
his government. Prof. Fava stated that
the Italians were jubilant over the
settlement, and he was satisfied that the
old-time good feeling between the two
governments had been fully restored.
Italy, he thinks, will now make a fine
exhibit at the Columbian exposition.
Already one cf the Italian men-of-war
has been put into commission to bring
exhibits over, and other ships will now
be commissioned

known men who were walking on the
track about one mile south of Highland
Park. The trainmen were in no way

before the accident occurred and blew
his whistle repeatedly and did his
utmost to stop the train, but without
success The men had the appearance

UNDER WATER.
Thousands of Acres of Wheat Land in
Illinois Submerged.


WHITEHALL, ILL.,, April 19.-The
heavy rains of Sunday night, accom-
panied by hail, precipitated an over
flow of the small streams in this local
ity. Wolf run was higher than for
thirteen years. Apple creek was out
of its banks, and the Chicago. Burling-
ton & Quincy reservoir north of this city
broke it's embankments and emptied
itself. The flood of last week broke
Hartwell levee on the Illinois bottom
and flooded Grassy lake, which covers
1900 acres. The levees on the Hart
well ranch protect about 5000 acres;
those on Keach's ranch over 5000. The
former lies on the north and the latter
on the south side of Apple creek,
whose waters played havoc with the
embankments, which confined the
flood within limits of a quarter of a
mile. The damage to Mrs. Anna Reach
is considerable, since the 1000 acres over
flowed had growing wheat and some
corn thereon. Farther up Apple creek
and near this city the levees of A. B.
Gregory and John Spangleberd were
greatly damaged and the Enclosures

Director Leech Presents Congress with
Some Interesting Figures.
WASHINGTON, April 19-Mr. E. o.
Leech, the director of the mint, has
transmitted to congress report on the
production of the precious metals COW
ering the calendar year 1891.
The product of gold from the mines
of the United States aggregated 1904
$40 fine ounces of the value of $33, 49,
900. This is an increase of 100000
over the products of the previous calen-
dar year. The increased product is due
largely to improved processes of treat
ment and to the increased amount of
gold extracted from lead and copper
ores.
The product of silver from our own
mines was 5S,S3O,OOO fine ounces, the
commercial value of S57,63O,O4O or of
the coming value in silver dollars of
| S65, 4l6, ,565 This is an increase of 81
$50, 900 ounces over the prior year. The
increased silver product was due prin-
cipally to the new finds in Colorado and
Idaho and the cheapening of the process
of smelling lead and copper ores bear
ing silver.
The total amount of paper and me-
tallic money in circulation on Janury
/, 1892 Exclusive of the amount in the
treasury and it's branches), was Sl,592,-
1893, ,629, against Sl,52S, ,594,627 on Janu-
ary l, 1891, an increase of $63, 9,OO2.
The amount of paper and metallic
money in actual circulation on April 1,
| 1892, was 81, COS, ,541,2 ,220.
The product of gold and silver in the
world for the calendar year 1891 was
1924, ,229, 900 gold and $l39, 175,o 900 silver.
The product of gold increased in 1891
over the prior year nearly $1,000, 600,
the increase being principally in south
Africa. The product of silver in
creased in 1891 over the prior year
about 100000 fine ounces. The in
crease in the silver product was prin-
cipally in the United States, Australia
and Bolivia

GETTING EVEN. ,

Sioux City Ia.) sa,oonleecpeis, out OF re-
venge for the Closing Up of Their
Places, Cause tho Enforcement of tho
Sunday Law Against Street Cars.
SIOUX Cry, Ia, April 1S.-About 40
miles of rapid transit were tied up
Sunday by the Sunday law enforce
ment movement. The Peavy electric
system, which operates 25 miles of
road, was the first to be at
tackled by officers armed with war
rants for their arrest, but soon after the
cable line and the Booge system were
also assailed. The warrants charged
violation of the Sunday statutes. They
were served on the motormen and the
conductors. AS fast as the men were
taken off the cars by the officers other
men took their places, while arrange
ments were made for giving bonds.
The Peavy system held out for two
hours, but finally at noon called its cars
in and tied up for the day. The ele-
waited railway which connects with a
line to Morning Side was dealt with
more easily, as it has only two trains.
The enforcers timed their work so as
to tie up the lines while the people were
at church, and thus 500 people were cut
off by the stopping of the road from
Morning Side, miles distant.
The Riverside Electric Company made
lively fight, and ran most of the day
by slsillful relays of motormen. Once
when all the men were under arrest
Charles ii. Swan, one of the proprie-
tors, took the train out. The cable
company succeeded in running all day.
At critical time John Pierce, a
Sioux City millionaire, owner of the
line, took the lever and ran aItrain.
When the officers went to the power
house to stop the engine they found the
door barricaded and Mr.. Pierce behind
| it with shotgun. He threatened to
| shoot the first man that entered. None
| entered.
A crowd of 1000 assembled at the
downtown terminus of the cable to wit
ness the fight. The cable line employees
mixed with the crowd and at signal
would leap on the cars and start them.
| About 100 arrests were made, and all on
the information of two saloonlleepers.
They are the first in retaliation for the
closing up of saloons by the newly.
elected mayor, who, although an anti
prohibitionist, declares that he will OBJ.
serve his oath of office. He ordered the
police to close all the saloons. The
whisky men have raised large fund to
retaliate.
They did not stop with the rapid
transit lines but arrested every propri
etor of cigar and news and candy
stands and similar business caught
with open doors. They say that they
have only made beginning and tina
next Sunday they will extend it t.
many other lines of business. They in
tend to stop the morning newspapers

CHICAGO, April 19.-Sunday was the

will be exempted from it's
payment. The crowd which looked
upon the splendid structures in Jackson

that the number of people who will
from now to May 1, 1898, visit the
grounds, will average 10000 daily. In
the 379 days before the opening day
this would give the exposition company
a revenue of S047,50O.
