Comm, who bad given notice that he
would propose that change. declined to do
so because he did not wish to stand In the
way Of Mr.. George (Miss.), who wished to
address the senate, but said that he would
offer 1t at some future time. Before he
had the chance of making that announce
ment there had been little unpleasant
ness between himself and Mr.. Voorhees,
Qnd.), who claimed the floor, and init
mated that the Connecticut senator should
have asked him to yield It,. He then
yielded it, without being asked, but not
before Mr.. Platt had suggested that 1t
would be better il the senator from In
diana were II little kinder in his treatment
of other senators. Mr. George argued
against the repeal bill, believing that it
would be leap in the dark, as likely to
increase as to diminish the aggregate of
the financifN troubles Mr.. George left
the finishing Of his speech till today. and
Mr.. Gray Del.) used up the rest of the
days session in IN argument against some
of the points made by Mr., George. The
senate sat till $50
The federal elections repeal bill has been
reported and has been placed upon the cal
endar of the house. But this action was
taken only after severe strug lie. the Re
publicans seeking every parliamentary de-
vice to block its way. But the Democrats
were ready at every point to throw the OBJ
structions off the track, and the way was
finally made clear, and the house at 5:45
adjourned.

ST. PAUL, Sept 2l.-Archbishop Ireland
has set at rest all question of the contin-
uance or abandonment Of the Faribault
plan. He says; 1.-The Faribault plan lives
and is stronger today in promise of future
health than it has been at any preceding
time. 1t is true that in the city of Fari-
bault there has been what trust l na7
term temporary suspension Of the con-

possible to institute the plan, but this only
illustrates one of the features of the plan,
which is that, local conditions changing,
it lies in the power Of parish or public

alliance The plan has been introduced
very satisfactorily in other places in tie

HUMMELsTowN, Pa, Sept. 2i.-A 9-year-
cid girl named Cooper, daughter of an en-
Hloyo of tho Hummelstown Brown Stone
company, who lives about two miles from
Hummelstown. went to school, carrying
her lunch in basket. When she failed to

became anxious, and instituted search,
which resulted in the finding of the body
Of the child, strangled to death. She had
been outraged and murdered, n portion of
her underclothing being used to strangle
her. 1t is supposed the fiend who com
tnitted the crime was Hungarian laborer.
Agnes Cooper Wright is the name of the
child, who was tall for her age and strik-
Ingly good looking. There were marks OF
the fiend's fingers upon her throat and
bruises upon her cheek, probably the re-
suit of his efforts to stop her cries. There
was evidence of severe struggle Dis

THE PEOPLE SUFFERING FOR FOOD.

Communities and individuals.
BRUNSWICK, Ga, Sept. 2I.-The feeling
bere has been much easier today. and
strong hopes are now entertained OF an
early suppression of the yellow fever,
though the weather has been extremely
favorable for the spreading of the disease.
There have been no new cases in the last
thirty-four hours, and practicng phya-
clans declare that all the cases now under
treatment are convalescent. Since the de-
population Of the city and almost entire
suspension OF business there has been no
available means of the poor obtaining
food except at the city's commissary,
whose stores are being rapidly depleted.
There has been only one car of provis-
Ions received by the relief com mittee since
the epidemic, but the committee is max
Ing heroic efforts to meet the demands of
the hundreds of sufferers who daily swarm
! 'ound the city hall. The appeals for
food by both white and black are heart
fending.
Government trains have begun running
between Brunswick and Camp Detention,
and hundreds of hungry refugees are leav-
Ing on every train, glad to avail them
selves of this opportunity to procure food
All refugees are detained ten days for flu
mightion and then discharged. St, Simon's
Island declared quarantine against Bruins
wick yesterday, thus cutting Off every av-
enue OF escape except through government
camps.
The corps of census enumerators under
Surgeon Murray have not yet completed
thHir work Tbpv bnya haor, in ottt,c al to,

and provisions, and their list of the latter
has covered nearly every family visited
Some of Brunswick's best families are at
the point of absolute need, and nothing
but starvation stares the few brave people
who have remained loyal to their homes
and city.
In an unofficial speech to the health
board DIR. Murray declared there was more
fear of suffering and death from starva-
tjon than from yellow fever, and that un-
less immediate aid is obtained from the
outside world the situation will be appall-
Ing. DIR. Murray said he was convinced
that hundreds were on the verge OF starva-

statement to the public through the press,

DIR. A. Butts said that one census taker

BUT WHERE is THE sOODLE7


Plnkertons Have Made Mess of the
Mineral Rnngo Train Robbery.
HANCOCK, Mich, Sept. 21.-The latest de-
velopments In the Mineral Range train
robbery indicate that the Pinkerton de-
tectives have been spreading the story Of
the recovery of the stolen money in the
hope of getting a Confession as to its hid
ing place from some of the men under ar
rest. This scheme has evidently failed
them, All the men arrested deny emphat-
ically that they have made any confession.
OF the fifteen persons arrested for conf
plicity in the robbery only five are now in
custody. Winters, Clemenson, John and
Michael Shea, Logtin and Shoup were dis
charged from the jail at Marquette, and
Jack Chellew and hiH wife. A. S. Cannon
and Camp Kehoe were released from Jail
here. This leaves Jack Butler, Jack King
and Ell Hogan in jail here, while Express
Messenger Hogan and LaLiberte are in
Jail Mt Houghton. When asked the rea-
son for the release of the prisoners the
sheriff replied: They have been released
because we don't want them. Their arrest
was mistaSe,'
The Pinkerton detectives acknowledged
before leaving Marquette that they had
exhausted all clews at that place, and
were completely at sea as regards the hid
ing place of the money. They have now
transferred their operations to Negaunee,
and profess to have information that will
lead to important arrests.
