WASHINGTON, Oct. Ex-senator Sher-

amendment to the repeal bill for the
issue of $500 ,0OO, 900 bonds to strengthen
the gold reserve at this session. At the
regular session, however, he will intro

JOHN *. shAw KETURNs
after an Absence of Over Ten
Months.

a1CSc an ABSENCE Oh over ZEN
Months.
DULUTH, MIMI, Sept. 10.-John K.
Shaw, whose disappearance on Nov
6, 1892, created a seDatlOn through
out the Northwest, turned up in Du-
luth today. He was city assessor Of
Duluth, but resigned to accept the
state agency of the Provident Life In
surance society. He was a brigadier
general of the Uniform Rank, Knights
of Pythias, and attended the Pythian
encampment in st. Paul. Two days
later he disappeared, and, in spite
of the search made by the Pythians
and his friends, no trace of him
could be found. After his busi-
ness affairs were found to be all
straight the theory was advanced that
he had met foul play as the result of
prominent part he took in anti-Cathollc
meetings held shortly before his disap-
pearance. He had transportation on
nearly every railroad in the North
west, and instructions were sent
out from the general offices of all
roads to look out for any of his mileage
books, but 1t was either too late or he
did not use them. for none of them ever
turned up. No explanation of his
strange disappearance can be obtained,
but his family have known of his
whereabouts for some months, and
knew OF his intention to return home.

Such attention. Attorneys for the
Chinese legation at Washington, hav-

deys stated that they had been informed
that no orders on the subject had been
given other than those promulgated at
the time the exclusion act was de-
cIared to be constitutional by the su-
preme court. The attorney further stat
ed that he expected no change IN the
situation before the date of the sailing
of the first steamer for China from San
Francisco upon which the Chinese Or
dered to be deported could leave the

ernment prefers not to be obliged to
carry out the workings of the martial

this message, however. and that is that
it is admitted that the insurgents have

various points. but they were refused,

and likely to surrender at any moment.
! The insurgents squadron, it appears, is
now held in check by the forts at the
entrance of the bay, where the officers
in command have orders to fire upon
the revolutionary vessels the moment
they are sighted. The gunners are kept
at their posts night and day, and SUBJ
marine torpedoes are reported to have
been placed in the channels likely to be
followed by the insurgents if an attempt
is made to put to sea and steam for

that port and joining issues with the

the face of the determined stand taken
by the war vessels of the foreign pow

announced their determination not to
uphold any destruction of property by
the revolving sailors. Finally, it is said
that the insurgent ships are short of
officers, as only twenty-eigfIt of the
latter, all told, have joined the mutin-

as if
NOTHING UNUSUAL
had occurred. and the statement is made
that the military are unanimous in their
support of the government. This of
ficial message is regarded here as being
somewhat reassuring, though the fact
is not lost sight of that 1t is an official
communication from the Brazilian gov
ernment, and. therefore, likely to depict
the situation in the most favorable
colors. On the otter hand, the message
sent by the United States minister to
Brazil, Thomas l.. Thompson, stating
that there is danger of bombardmeDt of
Rio de Janeiro, Is looked upon as being
the most trustworthy statement of the
state of affairs existing there. The
view Mr.. Thompson takes of the situa-
tion was communicated to the Brazilian
legation mere. but the official in charge
refused to make any comment
upon it. simply referring the
Associated Press representative to
the official message received from the
Brazilian government. The action Of

Special to the Globe.
HASTINGS. Mimi, Sept. 10.-A family
row occurred late last night at Ben
Krieg;s dwelling on Upper Bailly street.
j. A. Moss. better known as Jack
Adams" father-in-law of Krieg, called
and demanded S1.50. which he claimed
his SOn-in-law owed him. Some hot
words followed, and then there was also
trouble as to the ownership of some
picture frames or furniture, when Moss
was ordered away. Moss then went to
his hOme, which was near by, and sub
seQuently returned armed with heavy
club. A grand row ensued, Krieg get
ting vicious wound on the head by a
blow from the club in the hands of
Moss, who was stabbed and bitten by
Krieg in a terrible manner, receiving
twelve stabs in the head and body. IL
is thought the wounds will not prove
serious. Krieg was arrested and placed
in jail.

pressed by naval sofficers here is that
the insurgent ships should be treated as
pirates, and that if the government of
Brazil is unable to bring them to terms,
the foreign warships should be called
upon to restore order. 1t is thought
that this will be done, in any case, il
bombardment of Rio is attempted. 1t is
reported here that the admiralty has
sent special instructions on this subject
to the British admiral on the South At
lantic station. but all information on
the subject is refused by the admiralty
officials. The official message from
Brazil does not say that there has been
any loss of life during the repulse of
the landings attempted by the Brazil
ian insurgents, but it is presumed that
no actual landings were made. and that
the loss of life, if there was any, was
not of any great importance.

the Neal-McKinley political duel in
Ohlo. and the ordinarily interesting
contest. in recent years. for the gov
ernorship of Massachusetts, have lost
interest for the politician. This is be-
cause of the fact that there is very
general belief that Gov. Boies is going
to win, and by virtue of the victory be-
come very prominent and promising
candidate for the presidential nomina-
ton of his party in 1896. This belief
regarding the outcome of the campaign
In the Hawkeye state is not confined to
Iowa Democrats, but is half conceded
by Republicans from that common
wealth. The sudden change of front
on the prohibition question has made it
next to impossible for at least three
members of The Iowa delegation in con-
greSs to take the
STUMP FOR THE TICKET
on account of their records on the other
side. One of these is Congressman
Hager, who led the Republicans in the
fight against the Catch bill two years
ago. AT that time he made himself the
idol OF the prohibition element of his
party by great speech in behalf of
prohibition. This made him a candi-
date for congress. Naturally enough,
Mr.. Hager hardly knows what to do i'm
the present emergency. He has de-
cided. however, to make no speeches
and trust the result of the election to
bring the party back to its old position
on the prohibition question. Ex-Gov.
Gear and Senator Allison, who have
always been opposed to the prohibition
policy, were at first disposed to rejoice
at the change. but they are no longer
in that frame of mind, and now believe
that the campaign must be fought on
national issues altogether il the Repub-
licans are to commence the battle with
any hope of success at the end. On the
other hand. the Iowa Democrats here
have no doubt of the reelection of Gov.
Boies. They feel certain that the
REPUTATION OF PROHIBITION
at this late day will fail to bring back to
the party any considerable number of
the voters that have been driven away
In the past few years. while it is abso-
iutely certain that thousands of Repub-
licans will either remain away from the
polls or vote against the party ticket,
hoping by an overwhelming defeat to
bring the party back to prohibition in
the campaign of 1894. A significant
circumstance in this connection is the
attitude of the Methodist church in
Iowa. Ever since the Republican party
took up prohibition. the Methodist
clergymen Of the state have given their
most hearty and loyal support to the
Republican tickets, but they will do so
no longer unless the party returns to
prohibition. and in this campaign their
whole effort will be to teach the leaders
lesson. To this end. they will sup
port Prohibition and independent tick
cts both for state and legislative Offices.

tanning those who would from curiosity

From Montreal Buckley went to Eu-

nounced it his purpose to remain in the
East for few weeks and then proceed
to San Francisco and fight his case to
the end. He expressed himself as re-

the legality of the indictments.
