DEAD IN HIS COTTAGE.
veteran Found Murdered Three Miles North
OF OHdarhppc,


: IEDAERuEG, Wis, April John
nchlax, an Old man residing at kaeh-
Ter Mills, d small settlement three and
a half miles north Of this city, was muir
dered IN his house at an early hour YES
terday morning. His house was dis
covered to be on fire by some of the
nelghbors and on going to the place
they found Schlax lying upon the
kitchen floor. About him the floor was
burning and heaps of Goals had been
piled about his body.
Inc body Of the old man was dragged
out INTO the open air in condition that
rendered recognition impossible. At
the lower part Of the trunk the tire had
almost severed the body, while the
chest too was entirely burned except on
the left side where the charred re-
mains served to connect the head
with the rest of the BODY. The
mead and feet, though somewhat
scorched, were apparently not placed in
the Goals and could be examined easily
About this CHASTITY corpse, hung bits of
the Grand Army uniform, which the
old veteran always Wore. About noon
the charred remains were examined by
a physician. Two large fractures of the
WV AiP'cNSltNi, W Illlc llc lOlc-
mead had been entirely crushed in,
showing the entire brain. At the back
OF the head Il deep cash was found
which was probably caused by the blow
from an AK or q Ratchet.
There is no doubt but that the man
was foully murdered, but the perpe-
traitor or cause of the deed is not
known. The man was known to have a
small sum of money, but this was not
disturbed, as some small change was
found upon his person, and in the draw
er of a table $74 lay in Il wallet. A cor
oner's inquest was held during the after
light.
Schlax was by trade a blacksmith, but
usually passed the winter i'll the Sol
diers' Home at Milwaukee. He re-
turned from there about ten days ago.
During the day two old soldiers, inmates
of the Milwaukee Home, were seen
about town. One Of them showed u
Through from that place and had Il
bad bruise upon one hand, which
evidently had been very recently
received. 1t is surmised that
these two soldiers had quarreled
with Schlax, while they lived together
in the home. Both have been traced
and late last night one of them was
being watched at Saukville, whore
officers were waiting to hear from Dis
trict Attorney Schwin, to know how to
act. The coroner's Jury will meet again
next Wednesday. Warrants are out for
the arrest of the two soldiers.

OUTRAGE BY PERUVIANS.
American Consular Agent Shot and the
Consulate Invaded.

WASHINGTON, ID. c., April 7.-Minister
John Hicks cables the State Department
from Lima, Peru, rs follows:
LIMA, April 5.-GreshdT, Washington
AT Iplace omitted mob attacked Mason
lc lodge, sacked building and burned fix
lures in the street. incidentally United
States consulate was invaded, furnishings
destroyed and acting consular agent Shot
in foot. Archives saved intact Squad of
Peruvian police looked on while the mob
performed work without interference.
The mail brings the particulars.
The particulars in question which are
left to be supplied by mail apparently
include the information as to whore the
outrage occurred, which unaccountahly
is missing in the telegram. There is
but one consulate in Peru, that
at Callao. In this position
Aquilla J. Daugherty, Of Illinois,
appointed during Harrison's admins
tration, June ,, 1890, stands on the rec
ord rs consul. There are under him
six consular agencies. Whether the
outrage complained Of occurred at
one Of the small agencies or at
Callao no one at the department can de-
termine from the telegram, but mas
much us it comes from Lima the impress
sion prevails that the scene OF the out
rage was one Of the interior points.
After consultation with President
Cleveland, Secretary Gresham sent the
following telegram to the minister;
Protest against failure of authorities TO
afford protection to consulate, and II Facts
are we'll established ask expression OF re-
greet, prompt prosecution OF the guilty
parties and PREPARATION for injury to Amer
lean property or person. GRESHAM
IT is believed ut the department that
u satisfactory explanation of the affair
will shortly be made.

WEST TO WORK ALONE.
Split in the National Sanitary Conference
Meeting at New York City.

HioOoliiSo Nv wv" WI ~ WV
NEW York, April Tt has been evil
dent from the beginning that all was not
harmonious among the delegates to the
National Conference of State Boards of
Health. The discomfort eliminated this
morning in an important meeting of
the sanitary council of the Mississippi
Valley. The meeting, which was held
at the Fifth Avenue Hotel, grew out of
the feeling that the national confer
ence attempted to unite inter
ests too various to harmonic
too many conflicting authorities. The
territory embraced within the juris-
diction of the council includes fifteen
states and takes in the country between
Minnesota and Louisiana on the North
and South and Iowa and Eastern Penn
sylvania east and west. Twelve of the
fifteen representatives attended the
meeting, the other states being repre-
scented by proxies. Resolutions were
passed of a much more definite and
sweeping character than those adopted
by the conference of state boards. The
first of these resolutions grows out of
the recent reports of the prevalence
that the encouragement of the Marine
Hospital Service make a thorough in
vestigation of the matter, particularly
in Russia, and, if the facts seem to
justify it, that the case be laid before
the authorities in Washington and the
President be asked to prohibit
immigration, either in whole
or in part, under section 7 of
the new quarantine laws. Another
resolution calls upon the Marine Hos
pital Service to institute system of
sanitary inspection of trade and traffic
in the states represented in the council,
this inspection to be kept from year to
year during such a period as may be
found necessary. Still another resolu-
ton calls on the Marine Hospital
Service to institute a system of immi-
grafton inspection on the lines of the
similar service in 1882 and in the pro-
visions of section of the new quaran-
tine laws. Only twenty-five delegates
to the conference to-day went to inspect
the quarantine facilities about New

for it. As sixty is the number necessary to pass
an appropriation bill the sergeant alarms was
sent after the missing members. The bill was
finally put over until Monday, The Assembly
concurred in the Senate bin prohibiting the en-

MADISON, Wis, April Notwithstanding the
absence Ola quorum the Assembly went to work
this afternoon, the roll-call being dispensed
with. The Senate bin was concurred in proyid-

along public highways. Coy: Peck
startled the Assembly this evening with another
veto message, disclosing, he believes, an at
tempt to surreptitiously cause the exemption of
considerable quantity of land owned by k1pon
College. The bill was introduced by Assembly
man l.. w. Thaycr, of Fond du Lac County,
under joint resolution, and passed under sus-
pension of the rules. The committee state
affairs recommended indefinite postponement Of
the bin compelling weekly payment of wages,
giving number of reasons why such
a bill should not become II law:
Mr. Mcclellan moved g re-reference of
the bill to the judiciary committee, and it was
carried. The committee on medical societies re-
ported DR.. Quigg s bill to regulate pharmacy for
passage, and for indefinite postponement the
Evans and Quigg bills to regulate the practice
of medicine both authors dissenting from the
report on the medical board bills. Bills to regu-
late undertaking and pharmacy were also rec
commended for indefinite postpenement The
bill authorizing the issue of bonds by cities or
10000 to 100000 inhabitants was recommended
for passage by the judiciary committee.
Clerk Perth then read the governors mes
sage, announcing his approval of various bills,
among them the Milwaukee Grand Avenue
boulevard bill, and his veto Of the Ripon Col
lege bin. The governors veto was sustained by
n unanimous vote Several bills which had been
made the special orders for this evening were
taken up. The bin relating to electric light
companies was ordered To Il third reading Tho
bills authorizing the state to contract for water
supply and relating to taxation and special
boundaries in Forest County were passed.

Sunday Law Trouble in Pittsburg

\ PITTsBURG, Pa, April Sit is now
stated that the Sunday newspaper pro-
prietors of Pittsburg are determined
that the ''blue laws" shall be one
sided no longer. 1t is their in
tenton to have the laws of 1894 en-
forced in their entirety, and will create
such Il sentiment that the legislature
will be glad to repeal them. Traction
ears, inclined planes, ferry boats, etc,
will be stopped by prosecuting the
owners. Some of these gentlemen who
have been the most bitter opponents of
the Sunday papers are heavy stock
holders in dozen or more enterprises
which will be affected by the move.

Cantilever Runs wild and SmaSheS
Everything Before 1t.
JOLIET, H., April THE first serious
accident to occur on the drainage
channel happened at Romeo, a village
about ten miles north of this city.
About 5:45 this evening heavy wind
rose and was followed in about five min
utes by Il heavy fall of hail. This caused
all the men to run to shelter. The gang
of men on one of the cantilevers ran
into the engine house at one end of the
huge engine. The lever was on the
south end of the track and had been
carelessly left untastened. The wind
struck the cantlever and it started
down the track toward the engine
house, in which fourteen men were
huddled, and the enormous machine
weighing $50 tons fell directly on the
engine house. AS a result nine men
were killed and six severely wounded.
The men were all Italians except the
foreman, Samuel Korus, who lives in
this city. The cantilever was $50 feet
feet long and ninety feet in the air.
The force of the fall damaged the ma-
chine itself SO that it is a total loss.

The Washington correspondent OF
the st. Louis Republic says: The
question has often been asked since
the insta llation of the present adj
ministration if Judge Gresham had
really become a Democrat or was
simply a disconnected Republican
serving the present administration
because of his personal belief in the
patriotism and honesty OF President
Cleveland. To-day Senator Vest, OF
Missouri, called on the Secretary Of
State. Gresham and Vest are old
and very warm perso nal friends. They
baa not met before since the day be-
fore the Democratic National Conven-
ton at Chicago, when Senator Vest
in passing though Chicago called up
on Gresham and lunched with him.
To-day, when the Missouri Senator
called at the State department to see
Mr.. Gresham, the secretary grasped
his hand warmly and said:
"Vest, when we last met at Chicago
before the meeting of the national
convention, you little thought that
when we next met would be Dem
ocratic cabinet officer at Washington"
"That is So" said Vest. II always
knew that your associations were
Democratic, that you thought like q
Dem ocrat and talked like Democrat.
/ did not think you would be in 30
soon, but am glad to see YOU"
"Well, Vest" said he, here am,
and by --, I am the best Democrat
in Washington"
This declaration it is to be presumed
settles Mr.. Gresham's status. He re-
inforced the declaration little later
when Hon. w. L. Wilson, OF w est
Virginia, called upon him. Wilson
and Gresham had never met before
and the brilliant West Virginian was
introduced by Mr.. Gresharn's private
secretary. Judge Gresham said:
"Mr. Wilson, while I have never
met you before, I sat within two or
three feet of you when you delivered
your speech at the national conven-
ton on taking the chair. I agreed
with every word you said then and 1
am perhaps ready to go O little fur
Their now"
Judge Gresham believed every
word that Mr.. Wilson said in his
splendid speech on taking the chair
at the national convention it is en-
tirely safe to say that he is a Demo,
crat good enough to serve rs Score.
