cho' ara in ltall.

LONDON, July 27.-With reference to
the report of the presence of cholera in
Naples and the statement of the United
Press that nothing has been ascer-
tanned upon inquiry to justify it in as
serting that cholera was present in
that city. the London agent of the
United Press has received letter from
his representative in Rome, saying
that he telegraphed London on Satur-
day last the fact that the officials in
Naples had reported four cases of the
disease as having occurred there during
the early part of last week. This tel
egram never was delivered and there is
no doubt that it was suppressed. The
letter adds that neither the Naples
nor Rome newspapers make mention
OF cholera anywhere in Italy, though
the United .ross advices show TINT it
does prevail at Alexandria and other
places in Piedmont. 1t further says
that choleraic disorders prevail at Gu
neo, capital of the province of that
name. As usual pilgrimages have been
prohibited and cordons Of troops have
been established to enforce the prohi-
bition.

Mr.. cLEvELAND's POLICY.
No Amendments or Substitutes for the
Sherman Bill Wanted.

Sherman Bill Wanted.
New YORK. July 26..-The World
prints the following:
The World is enabled to announce
nuthortatively the immediate policy of
President Cleveland und his administra-
ton i'll regard to the approaching ses-
sion of congress. Briefly, it win be as
follows:
j. Silver reform by the absolute and
unqualified repeal of the Sherman
law.
2. Tariff reform to be prosecuted in
accordance with the pledges of the
party as soon as but not before the
finances of the country are again upon
stable basis.
Mr.. Cleveland is annoyed and cxas-
perated at the unexpected interference
with his tariff reform plans but he is
not discouraged. He proposes to meet
the silver question in the same open,
straightforward manner that has char
uctetized his handling of tariff matters.
President Cleveland's S advice to the COM
ing special session of congress for
the repeal at once of the Sherman sill
yer law will be that he believes that
any complications of the issue with
amendments, substitutes or similar
propositions will be detrimental to the
purposes of the repeating act, which
are not so much for the purpose of
working any instant change in
the financial system of the
country as for the restoration
Of business confidence throughout tho
land. From the information Mt his
command Mr.. Cleveland has no doubt
that his policy will be adopted by tho
house of representatives after reason,
able discussion. 1t is in the senate
that the trouble will come. What will
follow repeal is matter that will not
be injected into the present fight if the
administration has its way. That fur.
ther financial legislation will be
needed, the president considers prob.
able, but what its nature shall be is q
matter for future determination. Tho
first thing to be done is to clear tho
ground. When that is done the qnes-
ton of construction can be considered
upon an intelligent basis.

A GREAT SEA MONSTER.
Arrival at New York of the Russian Battle.
shin Nicnlai 1

ship Nicolal.
NEW YORK, July 27.-'The l.lost for
nidablc vessel of war which ever visited
american waters is the Russian ara.or.
.lad Nicolai ], one of the latest addi
lions to Russia's powerful fleet. The
Sicolai was ex .oected to arrive in time
to take part in the naval parade in
June, but, like the Nachimotf, which
preceded her here by q few weeks, was
imprisoned by the ice in the Baltic.
The ship sailed from Kronstadt or
June Ii, and from Falmouth, England,
On June 80. She was then headed for
the Azores, where it was intended. to
take on a supply of coal for the long
trip across the ocean. Her sea-going
qualities We're tested sh rtly after sho
sailed out of Falmouth. 1t was h, : first

Atlantic and, burdened as she is with
with armour and heavy guns, the off.

Of war rolled bravely through the
waves and acted much better than the
officers expected. The Nicolai is
rated as a heavily armored cruiser of
the tirst-class. In general appearance
she very much resembles the ill-fatcd
Victoria of the English navy. For
ward OF the vast snperstructnre is tho
l0-inch turret from which two monster
rifles project. The vessels battery con,
sists of two l2-inch 50 ton breechload.
ng rifles four 9-inch rifles. eight 6-inch
rifles and l6 rapid-fre cannons. Tho
6-inch pieces are wire-wound guns and
according to the ot1i.er have given ex-
cellent results. One of the guns has
been fired, 400 times and has not shown
any sign of weakness or corrosion.
The vessel carries an armor belt IA
inches in thickness. Her dimensions
are: Length over all 1876 feet; breadth
Of beam, 67 feet; mean draught, 25 feet
inches. She registers s,440 tons and
has an indicated horse power of s.OO0
Her speed is Is knots an hour She
was launched in 1883 at a cost of 9453,-
900.
The Nicolai is essentially battle
ship. There are half dozen vessels
in the United States navy that could
run away from her without half try
ing, and a score or more in the British
navy that could do the same thing.

Bank Failures in LouisviIls.

LOUISVILLE, July 26.-The Merchants
National bank suspended payment
Tuesday.
At 1870 o'clock IN the afternoon the
Fourth National bank closed its doors.
BY 10:3O O'clock it became evident to
the directors of the Louisville Deposit
bank that they could not meet
demands. As the general condition of
financial affairs was such rs to
preclude the hope of out
side assistance the directors
ordered the doors to be closed, and the
papers We're prepared making an assign
ment to the Germania Trust company.
The Deposit bank has paid up capital
of 100000. 1t might have pulled
through but for the suspension of the
three national banks.

Claims to Be a cousin Of Cleveland,

SIOUX FALLS, s. d., July 27.-A de
cree of divorce was filed here yesterday
in favor of Irving Cleveland Irish, of
Brooklyn, N. Y, who is forever separa-
ted from Emma Irish. The plaintiff
claims to be cousin of President

A reward of $50 has been offered for
the arrest of Harry Williams, the
school teacher who escaped from the
county Jail Monday night. Williams
was under Indictment for stealing 800
worth of Milwaukee mileage books.
Williams quietly slipped out of the Jail
while the turnkey was putting the rest
of the prisoners into their cells.

Sioux FALLS, S. D., July a7.-Judge
.. s. Clifford, the attorney at Canton of
X. W. Durham, of Chicago, is out in an
Interview in which he says that the
threat of Major Allyn to prosecute for
perjury certain witnesses who testified
before Notary Public Cooper is bluff
and that the major does not intend to
do anything of the kind Mr.. Clifford
says that he will begin suit against
Allyn for adultery in case he tries to
intimidate any of Dunham's witnesses.
Clifford says that the witness who
Sswore that he took to Allyn's room a
telegram late at night, did take tel
egram supposed to have been for Allyn,
out afterwards found to have been for
some one else. The Canton. Advocate
has taken back its report of the case,
but coupled with its retraction a state
ment that it was done under coercion.

or to concede territory to which France
never put in an effective claim until

WASHINGTON, July 27.-So far as the
state department is concerned there are
no Americans residing in Siam except
about n score of missionaries. 1t is
not believed to be necessary to take any
special measures for their protection.
The United States has no diplomatic
representative in Siam and tho consul
general at Bangkok Mr.. Boyd, is in this
country at present, leaving the office in
charge of his son, the vice consul. If
the welfare of our missionaries should
be threatened, which is unlikely, they
cnn without doubt secure protection
upon application to the minister of
some other nation, as will be the case
with the French residents. The com
mercial interests of tho United States
in Siam are insignificant, the exports
being very few and the imports being
made up of teak wood used in ship
building and some trides of oriental
and Mnlaynesian decorative work.
