German Prisoner Wins His Freedom by
Inventing an Improved Cannon.
BERLIN, Aug. 10-The inventive genius
of an officer named Thomas, of the German
artillery, who in 1884 was sentenced at Halle
to II years imprisonment for treason, has
stood him in good stead in having his SEN
tence commuted, and will probably result
in material improvement in his financial
condition. During his leisure moments in
prison Thomas devoted himself to the study
of artillery devices He invented process
which is great improvement on the
method now employed in the construction
of cannon.
He informed the prison authorities of his
invention, and they in turn notified the
Government Officers belonging to the ar
tillery branch.of the service were dispatched
to the prison, and to them Thomas revealed
the details of the invention. They at
once saw that the prisoner had made a most
valuable discovery, and communicated the
knowledge to the War Department. The
department recommended the release of
Thomas, and to-day the papers were re-
ceived at the prison, giving the prisoner
his liberty.

A BAD BREAK IN NEBRASKA.

The Republican Nominee for Lieutenant
Governor Not a United States Citizen.
OMAHA, NEB., Aug. 10.-It has been
discovered that Rev. j. G. Tate, the Re.
publican nominee for Lieutenant Governor,
is ineligible. Tate is an Englishman, and
he failed to take out his naturalization
papers until year ago. The constitution
requires that the Governor and Lieutenant
Governor shall have been citizens of the
United States two years prior to their
election. The State Central Committee
will be called upon to fill the vacancy.
Tate's case is similar to Governor Boyd's,
the difference being that Tate's father was
never naturalized and he was not resident
of Nebraska when it was admitted into the
Union.

There was no air brakes. The springs
were two in number and were over the
48-inches driving wheels. There were
only two driving wheels and four pilot

TREASON AND CONSPIRACY.
Carnegie Co. Prefer Serious Charges
Against Lock ed Out Men.

By Telegraph to the State Chronicle
PITTsBURG, Pa, October lit was
learned at noon to-day that warrants
had been issued by the Carnegie steel
company against the members OF the strl-
kers advisory board at the union mills,
this city. The charge preferred is that
of conspiracy and treason. None of the
members of this board have
heretofore been called upon to an
swer charges of violation In
connection with the present strike.
When the news that the charge of
treason had been brought against the ad-
visory committee reached Homestead
last evening it created great surprise.
Locked out men were puzzled and de-
clared they did not know what 1T meant.
They were unanimous in the belief that
this thing of entering charges had gone
too far, saying that charge of treason
reflected on their standing as American
citizens and against their patriotism.
Altogether it was roundly denounced.
1t was believed by the men that the OBJ
ject of the arrests is to get the leaders
out of the way SO that the others will g
to work.
