Indignant Because They Arc to 10 Shut
Out of tho Worlds Fair.
HAERlsBuRd, Pa, Jan. 12.-The oil
men OF Pennsylvania are in quite an
excited frame OF mind over the objec.
ton to their exhibit, alleging that a
storage Of petroleum or its products on
the grounds would be Of such dan
eerous character as to be constant
menace.
The oil men deny that the exhibit
will be dangerous and saythat it is not
fair that one OF Pennsylvania's greatest
products shall not be displayed. They
threaten that ii the commission will not
givo the room to put up building, they
will purchase ground and erect struc-
ture TO which all the oil men who wish
can display their exhibits. Ii tho COM
mission gives them apiece OF ground,
tho men in the oil regions propose to
put up q largo building.

Takes n Cheerful View.
WASHINGTON, D. G., Jan. l2.-The do.
cision Of tho supreme court Of tho
United States in the Counselman case
sthc subject OF much discussion TO.
day. Hon. w. Il. Morrison, the mcm.
Der OF largest service on tho interstate
commission, does not view tho situa-
tion with the discouragement that has
been manifested by somo other friends
OF the interstate law. An Associated
Press reporter inquired OF him:
rs the obstacle ono which you think
can bo removed by lcgislation?' !.
"Yes," replied Mr.. Morrison, ut can
be partially removed. The court points
tho way to a remedy. That way Is:
Give immunity, or lot 20 unwhipped OF
justice one guilty party who is made to
testify against another"
Tho remedy which the court suggests
and to which Mr.. Morrison refers is
contained in tho following paragraph
OF the decision:
we arc clearly OF opinion that no
statute which leaves the witness
subject TO prosecution after ho answers
tho eliminating question put to him,
can have the effect OF supplanting tho
privilege confcrredby the constitution
OF tho United States. In view OF tho
constitutional provisions statutory
enactment to be valid must afford abso-
lute prosecution for tho otFenso to
which the question relates"

TASGlER, Jan. lo.-The rebels are evi-
IDENTIFY gaining in strength and boldness.
They have hitherto confined their oper-
ations to radius some little distance
from Tangiers. They have possession
OF tho Trano routes leading into the in.
terror OF the country, and it is believed
that through this means they have been
enabled to supplythemselvcs with large
quantities of provisions, etc., destined
for Tangier. 1t is known that at least
one Moorish caravan has fallen into
their hands. Tho rebels seem to have
no fear OF the forces OF tho Sultan, for
they are now approaching the city.
The announcement that the insurgents
are moving on tho city has added great
ly to the excitement prevailing here.

Many Deaths Arc Roported-The L pldemic
Increasing.
LONDON, Jan. l2-There is no abate-
ment whatever in the epidemic OF infu.
enza which is sweeping over England.
Among the persons prominent in Eng
lish society who have been attacked
by the disease are Lord and Lady
Brooke who are both prostrated at
Warwick castle, their residence in War
wick. E
The latest announcement OF death
is that OF Right Rev. William Reeves,
D. D., OF the Church OF Ireland, pro
testant, Bishop OF Down.
Advices from Paris show that inilu-
enza continues to:increase everywhere
in France and the number Of deaths re.
sulting from the disease is very large.
Dispatches from Berlin and Vienna
states that the disease shows no signs
OF abatemcnt in Germany and Austria,
though it is now OF q more virulent
type than previously.
In Belgium influenza continues to be
widespread in its ravages.
A dispatch from Biarritz announces
the death at that place to-day OF the
Earl OF Charlemont. Death resulted
from an attack OF influenza. 3
Monsignor Magnasco, Archbishop OF
Genoa, Italy, whose serious illness from
influenza was announced. few days
ago, died to-day.

LoSpoS, Jan. l9.-ThouSh yesterday
tho physicians in attendance upon the
Duke OF Clarence took q very cheerful
view OF their patients condition. thero
is general opinion abroad that tho
duke is more seriously i'll than his fam
lily and physicians would have tho gen.
cral public believe. s
Occupying tho position he does, it is
but natural that the English people
should feel deeply concerned regarding
tho outcome OF his illness, and there is
little doubt that their fears Of break
in tho line OF royal succession has much
to do with the belief that the full OK
tent OF his illness has not been made
public. &
This morning the official statement
issued by the physicians says that the
inflammation OF the lungs from which
tho duke is suffering is pursuing its
course. They add that his strength is
well maintained, but that no improve
ment can be reported.
This guarded statement OF the phys
icians is taken TO indicate that the con-
dition OF the duke is less reassuring
than it was yesterday and last night.
Reports from Sandrinsham received
today by the Exchange Telegraph
Company state that tho pneumonia is
developing into amore severe type than
is announced by tho physicians in this
statemeet for the Information OF the
public.
A bulletin issued from Sandringham
hall at S o'clock this evening states that
although there is no marked change in
the condition ofthc duke he has grown
somewhat better since morning.

Special Dipdtch TO the inie.ligetec,
PAnKERsnuRd, WA, Jan. le.--The
Interstate convention Of tho Y. NJ. 9. A.,
which will meet hero on tho 14th in.
slant and continue until tho 18th, will

Delegations are expected from every
association in tho territory, and pastors
OF churches will send delegates from
towns in which associations have not
been organized. Associations and
churches in adjoining states will also
send representatives.
y Special rates have been secured over
tho various railroads so that the cost
OF transportation will be greatly re-
duced. Great preparations have been
made by the good people OF Parkers-
burg to entertain the visiting delcga-
tons. Following is the order in which
the progromme has been arranged:
On Thursday evening, tho opening
day OF tho convention, the ladies' Of the
Parkersburg association will tender a
reception to the delegates in Progress
hall, over the new association rooms,
5l7 Market street. Addresses Of well
come will be made by Mayor Wilson

meet the delegates at the depots and
escort them to the association rooms,
where they will report to tho credential
and assignment committees, after which
they will be shown their quarters.
Tho day sessions OF the convention
will be held in tho chapel of the Trinity
Protestant Episcopal church. An inter
esting and practical programme has

to all who attend. Great interest is
manifested throughout the district.

H
VALLEJO, CAL, Jan. PA genuine
sensation was developed in the Balti-
moro investigation to-day, n thing on.
tircly unexpected at this last stage OF
tho proceedings. Tho case had dragged
along slowly in tho morning session, a
number OF sailors being recalled to los.
tify as to tho sobcrness OF Riggin, Turn
bull and Davidson before and during
the riot at Valparaiso. After recess,
however, Surgeons stitt and White, Of
the Baltimore, took the stand. After
teatifying TO the wounds Of tho mem.
bers OF the Baltimore's crew, they de-
clarcd that tho death OF Turnbull was
directly caused byncglccti in the hospital
where no was carried by the police.
The Chileans refused to allow the
Baltimore's surgeons to treat their men
and declined TO do it themselves except
in a very superficial way. For four days
the surgeons vainly begged Judge OF
Crimes Foster to allow them to remove
the sailors to tho Baltimore, but not
till it became probable that Turnbull
would die would he grant them per-
mission. The men were taken. to the
ship, but it was too late for Turnbull
Blood poisoning had set in, and
Turnbull died five days later.
The surgeons were positive death
resulted from neglect and imperfect
treatment in the hospital. The sisters
Of charity who had charge seemed to re-
grct their inability to help the sailors,
but had to obey orders OF their supe-
riors. From a summing up by the
surgeons, it appears that US a result of
the mob, two sailors OF the Baltimore
were killed, five seriously wounded, be
ing disabled for from 0 5 to Al days, and
l9 received slighter wounds, being dis
abled from twoto eight days. It fur
therappears that if Riggin had not been
shot ho would probably have recovered, :,
as his knife wounds were not very Sc

Tho Neat Manner In Which lie Rid Him.
self of n Crazy Visitor.
CHICAGO, Jan. 12.-Judge Walter Q.
Gresham had an experience with a
crazy man to-day which is best told in
tho distinguished jurist's own words:
"About 8 o'clocl; this afternoon tho de-
mented man entered the chambers in
the courtroom where I was and told
me that the marshal had the money
locked up and would not give it to him
as had ordered he should. Not yet
realizing that the man was out of>his
mind, asked him what money he re-
ferrcd to, and he said, That five
thousand which Jay Gould had paid for
him, land which I had ordered he should
have then looked into his face and
observed a wild expression on his
countenance and told him to- 60 with
me to the marshal and would see that
he got what he was entitled to. He de-
clined, saying that anarchists were
after him and wanted to kill him. I
had managed, to get between him and
the door and keeping my eyes on him
told him to sit down and ! would be
back in moment. He then took n
seat and I at once went to the marshals S
Office, told the deputies what had oc-
Cured and told them to inform the
police OF the condition OF tho poor man
SO that he might be cared for.
1.-TWO policemen and two other men,
after struggle, succeeded in overpow-
ering the lunatic, who, with cane
which he carried, attempted to prevent
his capture. He gave his name as Mar.
tin McConahy. He was OF powerful
build and about fifty years old. Moth
ing further is known OF him. He will
doubtless be sent to an insane asylum

WAsnSGroy, D. c., Jan: l9.-1t is
deemed probable that tho ways and
means committee oil tho house will
make one very radical departure from
the past practice OF tho committee.
This will be in declining to afford pro-
longcd hearings to those various inter!
es,s which are likely to DO affected by
proposed legislation.
Mr.. Daniel Mckeeycr, secretary OF
the New York association OF importers,
and Mr.. Peter B. Worrcll, member OF
that association, to-day applied to
Chairman Springer for 4 hearing before
the committee in order to correct what
they characterize as "a general errone-
ous impression in regard to the work
ings OF the Mckinley act. To
Chairman Springer these gentle
men stated that there was a
much larger falling off in the
importations OF WOODEN goods under
the operations OF tile Mckinley law
than appeared by tho report OF the i'm
ports and exports furnished by the
treasury department. Tho Mckinley
law provides that all goods in bond
prior to the first day OF October, 1890,
could remain in bond until February /,
1901, and on being taken out would be
subject only to the duties imposed by
the act Of March 3, 1883. Hence, these
gentlemen maintained, the basis OF de.
termining tho decrease in the importa-
tions oil woolen goods under the Nc
Kinley act, was to make 4 statement
dating from February ], 1891, to the
present time. That statement, they
said, would show 4 falling off OF more
than 50 per cent in the imports OF
woolen goods.

AUSTIN, TEAAs, Jan. IA letter from
a member OF the Texas legislature from
his home in one OF the southwestern
counties, dated January 0, addressed to
Adjutant General NIabrey, is interested
in view. OF the situation on the Rio
Grande. After requesting the appoint
ment of his son as special in the ran
ger service, he says; while do not
think we are in danger from Garza's
following, yet their dispersion presages
much trouble from the thieving and
brigandage. In fact, the country is in
such direful condition that none will
stay who can get away. We have had
no rain yet. Everything is dried up.
Nobody can subsist unless by trans
ported subsistence. You may
rest assured CARA is not the
head OF tho movement. Both the brain
and funds are furnished from Mexico.
He is being used as a means to divert
attention from the real danger. You
may expect to hear more in the near
future on this subject. l am sure 80
per cent Of the Mexicans on. Texas soil
are in deep sympathy with any move
ment versus Diaz. Ii not actively, pas
sively, and this is my reason for solicit
ing reasons for appointment rs an
authorized help. We have to attend to
our own security. There are but few
white men or settlers in all tho country
south and east OF the International
railroad down to the coast, which is
consequently at the mercy OF the i'll
disposed should they combine, as they
have no love for those they consider in
