sal of the Libel Proceedings.
The Police Courtroom was well filled
yesterday morning when the case of Re-
porter Healy VS.. j. n. Larkin, publisher
of the Sunday Leader, was reached on
the calendar.
The prosecuting witness wanted the
case continued for one week, but the de-
PENDANT desired to make statement and
if possible to have the case dismissed at
once.
Mr.. Larkin said the statement pub
lished last Sunday morning in the Leader
rejecting on the honesty and integrity of
Mr.. Healy was entirely devoid of malice,
and was published without his knowl-
edge. He was sure it was intended as a
facetious article and supposed it would
be treated as a joke. lie was very
friendly with Mr.. Healy and regretted
very much that the article was written.
He promised to publish a retraction
next Sunday morning, on which under
standing the plaintiff consented to dis
missal of the case.

Wife, Repents His Act.

Wife, Repents His Act.
In the Police Court yesterday morning,
on motion of Acting City Attorney Post,
the case of Joseph Bertoni. charged with
threatening the life of his divorced wife,
was dismissed.
The City Attorney explained that by
the decree of the Superior Court Bertoni
is allowed to visit his children, who are
in the custody of Mrs. Bertoni. During
a recent visit the ex-husband made some
demonstrations which his former wife
could not or would not understand, and
hence the swearing out of the complaint.
Judge Buckley severely rebuked Ber-
toni and advised him not to further mo-
lest his former wife, for if he should he
will be prosecuted to the full extent of
the law.
Bertoni agreed to let his former wife
alone in the future.

Nothing definite could be learned
yesterday as to when the Police Commits
sioners would get together to appoint a
set of officers. 1t is thought, however,
that meeting will be held either to-day
OF tomorrow.
Commissioners Buckley and Rodgers
say they are waiting for Mayor Steinman
to call meeting of the board, and the
Mayor does not appear to be worrying
himself much about the matter. In the
meantime the old officers are on duty and
drawing their regular salaries, and
say they hope the Commissioners will
decide to let well enough alone.

WEIGH, w. VA, November 2s.-Sat-
urday was pay day in the coal region
and the usual number OF crimes were
perpetrated. At Kimball, Hiram Day
was shot in the back, hip and knee by
a negro in the Palace saloon, but retail
lated by shooting his assailant in the
stomach. 1t is thought the negro will
not recover. Day will get over his
wounds.
Directly after the shooting the row
became general, and the crowd was
driven out Of the saloon and its doors
were closed. The mob, iRiuriated by
drink and maddened by the wounds Of
their comrade, then made q descent
upon the saloon kept by Kaufman, close
by, destroyed tables and other furni-
t1re, helped themselves to free drinks
and created q great disturbance.
At Doson, this county, Saturday, A.
s. Waldron, a merchant, ana an old
citizen, was seriously cut by man
named Abbott, on account or being re-
fused credit by Mr.. Waldron.
One Edwards, negro, working Tor
the Pulaski Iron Company, at Eckman,
went to Keystone Saturday night
and was last seen alive at
eleven o'clock with two jugs of whiss
ky and and a pair OF new shoes. His
corpse gave evidence that the THIEF took
time to put on the shoes after commit
ting the dastardly deed. The body OF
the poor negro lay exposed to the view
of all for TWO days and nights, which Is
a sad commentary upon the police sys-
tenn of this section.
On Monday, at Keystone, negro was
badly beaten with rocks aud 1t is sup
posed that his skull is fractured.
Yesterday afternoon at Burke two
negroes got into difficulty near the
tunnel cut and weapons being used one
of them was so badly shot that he can
hardly recover. No arrests have been
made, as vet.
Monday a white woman named HUI
dab Mitchell was found dead AZ Davy,
with a bullet wound on the side of her
head and another ball through her brain.
Suspicion has been directed towards
Emert During, a Frenchman or Bava-
rian, living in Wyoming county. An In
Quest is being held to-day.
A row in the Jail occurred last night
between the prisoners, and several
shots we're fred by the guard to quell

able labor 1t still appears that the In
crease of the whisky tax, If any increase
be made, will not exceed ten cents per
gallon, and the changes In the tobacco
schedule will be very slight, and direct
ed rather to more logical elassihcations
than to an increase in the tax.
The whole income tax question Is
opened up anew, aud it is now possible
that the tax may after all be OF that

The Republicans are already prepar-
ing for a vigorous fight on the now

j. c. Burrows, d Republican member OF
the Ways and Means Committee, In re-
gard to the wool question.
William R. Morrison, now Chairman
OF the Interstate Commerce Committee,
was asked to give an opinion about the
Wilson bill. he said that he did not
like TO talk on the subject 1T is very
easv TO Criticise the actions OF others,

had not been developed. 1t had not
been shown yet where the money was
coming from and that would be impor-
tant in considering the measure.

schedule" ," added Mr. Morrison, "as II

the free list, and have been an advo-
cate of it ever since"

COMMENT ON THE TARIFF BILL.

LONDON, November 2S.-The st.
James Gazette is not greatly pleased
with the new tariff bill; yet ii admits
that the bill shows signs that Mr.. Cleve-
land is prepared to fulfil his promises
aud thai there is no question to that 1t
will prove a great relief to trade. The
50. james Gazette says: call through
the oil care is taken to leave the Amer
can producer with the ditferential duty
in his favor. Complete freedom is
given only where no competition is
feared. 1t Is better than McKtnleY's
Chinese wall, but IL leaves the for
eigner trading with the United States
at no small disadvantage. Still, the
best we can say for it is that this is
preferable to the purely obstructive
thing which it is designed to replace. "
SAN Francisco, GALA, November
2s.-''The new tariff won't affect me in
the leass, so far as sugar is concerned, F"
said Claus Spreckels, the sugar mag
nate. Raw island sugar may possibly
be affected so far as the demand is con-
cerned, but don't suppose it will vir-
tually affect the price.
PARIS, November 2s.-The Journal
DcS DcbdtS hopes that, thanks to the
energy and courage Of which Mr.. Cleve-
land has given so many proofs, matters
of public interest will now receive at
tention, and that the McKinleyites will
finally be defeated.

CINCINNATI, O., Novem Der 2S.-Bish-
op Fl. NJ. Turner, of Atlanta, called to
order the National Colored Convention,
pursuant to his call issued September
90. To the surprise Of all, the list OF
delegates reached over 500 and more
arc vet to come. Permanent organiza-
tion was effected without friction and
officers elected, Bishop Turner being
chosen as President.
Hon. C. H. J. Taylor, Of Kansas City,
Kan. recently appointed United States
Minister to Bolivia, made an address,
taking strong ground against all
mob law in general. His remedy was
for the enactment from special statute
for the speedy trial OF all rapists, liking
the punishment at death. he would
also compel the county in which man
was lynched to pay his heirs $4,000.
Tonight Bishop Turner delivered an
address carefully prepared and full OF
deep feeling. He deplored the apparent
faint upon the race, and declared that
il even half that was charged against
coIored men of the United States is
true, coored men themselves should
band together and organize for the cor,
rection of the evil by the most radical
measures.
The Bishops remedy is in partial
African emigration. He favors calling
on this nation for portion OF the forty
billions which the country owes the COL
ored race for daily labor, save five hum
dred million dollars to begin African
emigration.

President Ralph Bagaley, or the u.

dency TO reduce wages. He thinks,
however, that the bill will be consiber9-

tirely destroyed and a mother and

ing, and by z o'clock nothing but a
blackened mass of ruins remained,

pears that Emperor William on Sunday

from Orleans similar 20 the one which
was sent to Chancellor Won Caprivl.
The Internal machine sent 10 the En-

and soon managed 10 render il harm
less.
The French government has promised
the utmost assistance In tracing the
criminals concerned In sending the in
fernal machine 10 Chancellor Won Ca
privi and to the Emperor OF Germany.
An experienced political detective,
Hontausch, is investigating the case,
but up 10 the time the despatch was
sent no clue have yet been found lead
ing to the identity OF the criminals. ~
in the case OF the Internal machine sent
TO Emperor William, the concealed ex-
plosiVe was sent to the Chancellor was
accompanied by letter written 10
free, bold hand, and covering page
ana an eighth. The letter was ad-
dressed: Monsieur lie General DeCa-
privi, Grand Chancellor D'Allemagns,

From the post marks II was judged
that both internal machines AMI both
letters came from the town OF Orleans
in France, aud the police OF that place
are in active communication with the
authorities OF this city, and are doing
their utmost TO discover the Identity OF
the person or persons who forwarded
the dangerous packages TO Berlin.
chancellor Won Caprivi's internal ma
chine. when opened by gun maker,
proved to be similar To the one which
was exploded at Spandau last summer.
The letter which accompanied the in-
fernal machine, which was sent 10
Chancellor Won Capriyi. read as follows:
81 have the honor 20 forward you SAM
Piles OF an astonishing kind OF radish
seed, which is sown in December and
gathered 10 February. This kind IL
not affected by frost. Receive, SIR, the
assurance OF my perfect confederation.

"i7 Rue Boutlong, Orleans"
The letter sent TO Emperor William
with the internal machine intended for
him, had the same contents as the one
addressed TO Chancellor Won Caprlyl.
1t has been ascertalned that the address
given by De Chanteau. Is false.
The supposition that the sending OF
the two Internal machines was the
work OF crank Is now abandoned, ana
IL is believed that the attemJL upon
the live OF the Emperor and Chancellor
Caprivi we're due 10 Chauvenlsts who
are disappointed at the slow working OF
the Franco-Russisn entente, and who
decided 70 take revenge In their own
hands.
The finding OF the two internal ma
chimes has caused but little excitement
in Berlin, as II is well known that the
Emperor or the ChaDcsllor never open
boxes, or other articles that may oe
sent TO them, that task falling upon
others who are always on the lookout
for presents similar to the ones secehtly
sent to the Emperor and to the Chan
cellor.
