MADRID, July 14.-The government COM
mission reports the disease prevalent in
Paris is Asiatic cholera, AS a consequence
steps are being taken to prevent its intro
ductiOn over the Pyranees.
PARIS, July 14.-The authorities voted
15, 900 francs for the erection of wooden
choleraine hospital in case of necessity.
Steps are being taken to substitute spring
water for that of the Seine for drinking
purposes. The chambers have been pro-
rogued.
ST. PETERSBURG, May 14.-Since the last
report twenty new cases of cholera and
eleven deaths are reported at Simbirisk.
Some doctors here assert the cholera has
appeared in Moscow, where there are
thirty-fve cases in the hospital, but no
deaths have occurred. The disease con-
tlnues to spread in the towns of the in
fected districts. 1t is reported the cholera
has broken out in village near Jeletz. As
trakhan has become the chief nursery of
the cholera on this side of the Caucasus.
The epidemic advances rapidly there and
not elsewhere. The latest reports from As
trakhan say in one day 225 persons were
attacked with the cholera and 102 others
died. Astrakhan messages publish the
details of recent riots in that place growing
out Of the epidemic. The messages say
the mob held the town for two days. The
hospital was burned to the ground and all
the staff more or less injured. One doctor
and his assistant were brutally beaten by
the mob and trampled to death. Patients
in the hospital were carried to the banks of
the Volga and fed with milk as a supposed
antidote to poison administered by the
dactors. Several succumbed to this extra
ordinary treatment. Only the firing of
yolley by the infantry brought the mad
dened mob to reason.

Another Tumwater Man Heard
FrOm-The Reduction of Salaries
Editor Tribune:
observe that Mr.. Owings, as chairman
of the recent citizens mass meeting, has
appointed a committee of three, Francis
Henry, J. M. Swan and I. G. Ellis, to take
the necessary steps to test the legality of
the act of the city council in making a
general raise of the real estate assessments
of the city.
Now, on behalf of myself and several
others living on East Fourth street, I de-
sire to suggest the unwise policy of step
in this direction. Several of us have talked
the matter over, and while we have not
very much of this worlds possessions, we
have agreed to endeavor to raise enough
money to pay the taxes ourselves of the
few who are disgruntled. The various set
backs and the depreciation of city warrants
are far more injurious to the people and
the taxpayers than are the assessments
about which complaint is made. A suit
against the city will depreciate city war
rants and the bankers can then buy them
at 70 cents and wait for rise. Warrants
are now at par and will bring premium
if we have good sense. One Of the commit
toe is the paid attorney of nonresident
lady who owns considerable property in
the city and who is always kicking.

suit Against the city.

Editor Tribune:
see that Nick Owings has appointed
committee to bring suit against the city
council relative to the action of that body
on valuations and assessments. If the ac-
ton Of the council on assessments had not
affected Mr.. Owings' bank he would never
have been heard from on the subject.
There can be no doubt of the outcome in
favor of the city council, but the commit
tee, which is composed of a bosom friend
of Nick and two others, all Of whom are
known to be enemies of the council, will do
no good to Olympia if the suit is brought.
There will be more empty houses for rent
than there are now if Nick Owings' ideas
prevail in this city. DIST.

WASHINGTON, July 14.-Bitter complaints
have been received by the Idaho senators
here from the representative mine owners
in Ceur d'Alene respecting the conduct of
the military in the disturbed district.
They say the troops were delayed at
point twelve miles from the scene of the
rioting until the best part of the property
was destroyed and number of non-union
men, helpless and unarmed, were killed
and the remainder driven from the mills
out to the country directly past the
soldiers sent there to protect them.

The party intend entrenching in the Null

Wardner. Soon after the arriva. of the SOL
diers in the defle the miners will surround

FOUL MURDER.
All the newspaper men practically are
prisoners at Wardner and unable to send
dispatches. Nearly all the business men of
Wardner suspected of anti-union senti-
ments have been driven out of town by the
strikers, and are now in the hills. The
mine owners and representatives wives are
in danger of their lives in Wallace. The re-
port is cOrroborated of the killing of non
union men at Mission, by strikers who
were conducting them out of the country.
Twelve are known to have been killed,
among them Monaghan, superintendent of
the Gem mine, whose body was terribly
mangled.
PORTLAND, Ore, July 1.-THE report that
Van B. Delashmutt was taken prisoner by
the strikers in Wallace yesterday arose
from the fact that the union leaders were
looking for him to request him to stay the

CONFLICTING REPORTS.

WALLACE, Idaho, Juty 15.-The situa-
ton today remains quiet. All the miners
went home to the various mines last night
The POorman and Tiger mines, which have
been deserted since Monday, started up
again this morning, also the Monmouth
and Custer mines. Work at the Morning
and Hunter mines was also resumed this
morning. A ripple of excitement was
caused last night when it was learned that
the Graphite mine force had not left A
delegasiOn Of miners Immediately started
in darkness for the mine four miles from
Wallace and brought the scsbs down. They
were ordered out Of C9ur d'Alene. The
miners claim the owners of the mine of
DeLashmutt and McAulay had agreed to
discharge the scabs and had not done so.
These are the last scabs in CBur d'Alene.
1t is said they viii We today or tomorrow.
The report that twelve men were killed
in Fourth OF j uly canyon, created great in
dignation among the citizens here'last night
and conservative miners. The associated
press correspondent telephOned to Mission
twice and got answers both times that
nothing was known there cOncering it.
The coroner of this county went to Mission
last night at 10 O'Clock on a special Union
Pacific train and returned at midnight.
He reported he could learn nothing about
the killing. A telephone message from
Gore d'Alene city, stats that one of the
men, ]. H. Ward, who was reported killed,
had arrived there. Nothing further could
be learned. No troops have arrived here.
They are now at Warden and will probably
arrive here this afternoon. Women and
children are returning to Gem and other
points on Canyon creek.

the Mission slaughter struggled into town
today. They present a pitable appearance
with torn clothes and bruised bodies. They
confirm the story of the slaughter. A re-

from Montana and if the strikers are ar
rested blood-shed is predicted.

A useful South American animal is
the kinkajou, which, as the dictionary
will tell you, is procyoniform quad
ruped with protrusile tongue and u
prehensilc tail. Under ordinary circum-
stances if You were TO meet Il kinkaiou
in the street you would look for an Ital-
ian with hand organ, though should
be inclined TO look for a policeman, be-
cause know how unpleasant the ami
NAL can be, particularly in the fruit
season, for the kinkajou loves fruit and
eats all he can find. The chief reason
for asserting that Tho linkajou is useful
is that in addition to his fondness for
fruit he has great liking for insects FOR
lunch, and when tanned is u valuable

A farther Investigator Of the banE.
book found upon the person Of E. T.
Stroud and in the name Of W. J. Black
burn makes the case no better for the
chief. Tho first deposit Of s5 made In
the Philadelphia Savings Bank was
signed not only by the name of VIM.
J, Blackburn, but follows is the de-
scription: policeman of Wilmington,
Del, and Emily b." the latter being
the name of Chief Blackburns wife.
Against this damaging evidence stands
Chief Blackburn's denial that II is his
signature, farther that the name is o
forgery. This may possibly be so,
but 1t will be hard under the circum.
stances TO make an honest, dlscrlmi
mating public believe it, without Q
rigid investigation and judgment
passed upon the signature by experts
1t would be well perhaps to sus.
pend public opinion until this rigid ex
animation Is made. Chief Blackburn
has always stood fair before the com.
munlty, in moral, honest and social
sense, and has boon reckonod as one OF
/ the best officers upon the police force,
and every opportunity should and nc
doubt will be afforded him OF setting
himself straight before the commune
ty. Admitting, however, that he has
made q grievious error he is not the
first Chief OF Police charged with the
same offence and city officials even
higher in position than he, but three
or four short years ago were charged
with being in league with the gamb
ling fraternity and to have received
large divys from them. We do not re
fer To this as an excuse for Chief Black
burn, but only to show the terrible
and seductive influences that gambler
exert over morally weak public OIL
Gals.
Nor will we in the least condor,
Chief Blackburn's reputed offence be
cause he Is a Republican official. I
is, il there is any possible discrlmina
ton, more of a crime for Republican
official to fall into such snares thai
for Democrats, because the public as
general rule expect government OF
more moral cast than Democrats. A
we have already said In a prevlou
article Chief Blackburn's retlrac
from tho head of the police depart

he is guilty of the present charge Q
