How Oscar Wilde Got a Smoke

A good thing, attributed rightly or
wrongly to Mr.. Oscar Wilde, is going the
round of the dinner tables. Oscar, so the
story goes, was once profoundly bored after
dinner and much irritated at the tardiness
of his hostess in leaving the table and max
ing wav for the cigarettes. Suddenly some
one remarked that lamp on the table was
smoking. "Eappy lamp!" said Oscar, and
.be hostess took the hint.

As the result of the Philadelphia failure,
a number of cargoes of foreign ore afoat,

low prices, Among the ores thus sold were
Seriphos, Tafna and Porman, the latter SELL
ing as low as 61kc unit These ores, al

makers of foundry iron in Eastern Pennsyl-
yania, and, having given them some low

THE PRESIDENTS ORDER
And How It is Accepted by the steamship
CompauIes-AW Wise Measure.

And How It's Accepted by the Steamship
Comparatively Wise Measure.
LoNDor, Sept. 6.-Tho representative
Of the Associated Press in this city to-
day interviewed Mr.. John G. New, the
American consul general here, relative
to the action by the steamship COM
panies in regard to the steerage traffic.
Mr.. New said that since the contents Of
President Harrison's circular were COM
municated to the steamship companies
he had received intimations that all of
them were concurring in the regulations
and promising the immediate and en-
tire Cessations OF the emigrant trade.
No complaints, he added, had been made
regarding the circular, which tho COM
panies tacitly accepted as law.
When asked whether it was true that
the baggage of saloon passengers was
not fumigated, Mr.. New said that in no
case wasfumigation omitted when the
saloon passengers sailed from q sus-
pected port. He further said that he
was kept advised by the American con-
suls at Bremen, Hamburg and other
ports, regarding passengers from their
respective jurisdictions, and all other
matters relating to outward bound ves-
sells. He declared that he had found
the consuls alert in communicating to
him any case requiring vigilance.
Mr.. New expressed his belief that the
steamship companies are acting consci-
entiously TO meet the spirit OF the cir
cular and for their own sakes are tax
ing all possible precautions.
As to the circular itself, Mr.. New
said he Thought it wise measure and
he added: at is observed at the Uni
ted States ports with n strictness equal
to that with which the consulates in
England watch its enforcement, the
danger OF cholera being imported into
the United States will be reduced to a
minimum

A TERRIBLG TRAGEDY.

The Result of Raid on Garfield Race
Track-TWo Policemen and u Turfmau
Killed.
CnlcAoo, Sept. 6.-Throe dead men,
one of them millionaire, and an open
question "a to whether Chicago's
mayor or its chief of police is wilful
perjprer are to.day's,results of the at
tempt to close tho Garfield Park race
track.
The dead mon are James NJ. Brown
of Fort Worth, Texas, a prominent
western turf man, shot through the
right breast and lower portion of the
face; John Powell, police officer, shot
through the mouth; Henry Mcdowell,
police officer, shot in the abdomen.
Both officers fell before Browns reyol-
yer, one being instantly killed, the
other dying before he could be removed
from the grounds. Who killed Brown
is not exactly known. Nobody saw the
actual killing OF Powell and Mcdowell,
and when Brown was slain, a dozen of
ficers were firing ut him, including Nc
Dowell, who, Notwithstanding the fact
that his life was ebbing fast, raised him
self upon his elbow and fired repeatedly
at the men who had laid him low.
Shortly after 8 o'clock the police
made the third raid upon tho park.
The appearance OF the officers caused a
panic among the spectators, who fled
precipitately from tho grounds. All
the officials were arrested. and the otil-
GERS then attempted to arrest j. NJ.
Brown. the wealthy turfman, owner OF
Bobby Beach, G. W. Johnson and other
first-class horses.
Brown was standing upon the roof OF
one OF the stables and refused to come
down, saying that he would kill or be
killed before submitting to arrest
Brown then jumped down aud started
away, when Officer Powell fred at him.
The turf man then pulled his revol-
yer and shot Powell dead. He then ran
up Fortieth street, followed by officer
Mcdowell, who finally caught him. A
hand to hand struggle followed, during
which Brown again drew his revolver
and fred directly at McDowelPs abdo-
men, inhicting mortal wound. By
this time Brown was surrounded, and
before he could protect himself he was
shot twice, one bullet passing through
the right lung and the other entering
the head. lie died almost instantly.
James NJ. Brown was q man with q
record and il Mcdowell dies fle-will. be
the fourteenth man who has gone down
before his revolver. He has been q
turfman for the last twenty-five years
and was generally regarded as square
man. He had amassed q fortune on
the turf and his estate is estimated at
over one million dollars. He leaves a
widow and five children.

The colored boy landed good left hand

ceived singing right on the ear. A
moment later Dixon was the aggressor,
and he landed two heavy lefts on the
face; his opponent clinched him and
delivered a heavy punch on the colored
boys heart. Tho fighting was fast and
furious, and Dixon appeared to be get
ting the better OF the exchanges. As
the men went to their corners Sicily

Third Round-Skelly was the ag.
gressor, and, stepping in, received a
hearty left which floored him. Dixon

strong for his opponent, likewise too

men landed heavy rights and Dixon

sent his opponent down, though by a

him for the time being. Dixon was do

An oversiEht of tho Health Officers
Which Might Prove Fatal.

An Overnight of tho Health Officers
Which Might Prove Fatal
New York, Sept. From circum-
stance of yesterday it would seem as
though the health officials have over
looked the fact that there are two en-
frances to tho port of Now York. DR..
Jenkins and his subordinates, who are
battling to hold cholera in lower bay at
quarantine have apparently forgotten
the entrance through Long Island
Sound.
He'll Gate is, n few ships pass that way.
One did yesterday. 1t was the Ebro, of
the Wilson line, from Hull, via, Boston.
1t was subjected to no quarantine in
spection at this port and with permit

it is now securely moored attho Wilson
limo pier, at Prentice's stores,
along side the Wall street ferry
slip, Brooklyn. The strange
part of this is that the ship carries u
cargo OF rags, merchandise which is
viewed at all times with suspicion, and
WulSu Nv blAS pAVaCAb hAAA0 40 AO6N'NSNA
as synonym for infection and plague.
The cargo was shipped from Hull, Eng
land, but the rags were gathered, it is
said, upon the continent OF Europe.
Perhaps some of them came from the
infected districts Of Russia, Austria and
Germany, and perhaps the health Off
cial may have occasion to regret the
Ebro's passage through Hell Gate. The
Ebro is commanded by Captain Nor
gan. She called at Boston and dis
charged a portion OF her cargo, the
bales OF rags being consigned 10 New
York.
There is no quarantine for vessels ON
tering through the sound. The Ebro
proceeded with her cargo directly to
her berth. She had, OF course been
regularly entered at Boston, and pre-
sumably she had complied with all tho
provisions OF quarantine and clearance
there. While this is point in her ta-
vor, it does not exempt snip from
compliance with the regulations OF the
port. The ship was not lnolesled, and
was tied up to her dock before any
steps were taken to comply with the
health regulations.

An Awrnl Death.

OMAHA, NEE, Sept, 6.-B. NJ. R. Rix,
ono OF the best known fine stock farm
ers in the state, was torn to pieces by q
bull on his farm near Omaha yesterday.
The corpse was literally cut to pieces
and could be identified only by the
fragments of clothing scattered around
the scene OF the struggle. The feet Of
the bull were covered with blood from
having jumped on the victim and its
long horns wore covered with shreds OF
flesh. Every bone was crushed and in
some instances detached from the body.
The terrible affair was discovered by
tho victims wife.

awkward clinch in which DiSon's gen.

came together. Dixon followed up his
opponent closely and the latter did not
seem SO anxious to fight. The colored
boy landed heavy right and Loft and
would havo knocked out his man but
for clinch. Sicily looked beaten aud
was punched to tho floor twice. The ring
OF tho gong barely saved him, for no
was showing signs OF the terrible pun

looked limp and beaten.
Eigth rOrnd-Dixon stepped up TO
his man knowing how weak the latter
was, and landed light left on the head.
The men boxed carefully aud came to q
clinch, from tho attempt by Dixon to
land on tho head. Dixon forced his
man into a corner where he delivered a
heavy right and lett handler. and il was
astonishing how Skelly could stand the
punishment. He was gone, however,
and in heavy exchan GO he was beaten
to the ground with terrible right and
left hand swings. Tho young Brooklyn
amateur fought game battle and thats
all that he can be said to have done.
He showed fight whilo strength was
