RELATION THERETO.
The Wife of a General Elopes With a
Nihilist, and is Afterward Captured
and Killed by Her Husband.
Special to the REcoRD-UN1oN.


New York, Jan. pa Berlin cable
says: The forerunner of his Imperial
Highness, the Czarewitch, arrived some
twenty-four hours before the great event
materialized, which sets all Berlin talk
ing. The stories going the rounds with
reference to the Czarewitch is that the
Cars desire is to make a dicker with
the Kaiser to fight Nihilism and Social
ism. In connection with this the follow
ing story is related, which points toward
a revival of Nihilism.
The st. Petersburg Central Committee
of Nihilists, it is said, ordered some three
months ago one of their members. a
young aristocrat, noted for his manly
beauty and refinement of manners. to en-
gage in intrigue with the wife of General
Frowdeinki. shining light of the politi-
cal house of the Car, whose duty it is to
watch the international League of Nj
hilists and Socialists. The comrade did
honor to the confidence which his friends
extended him, and in November he
eloped with the Generals wife from St
Petersburg, the woman having first pro-
vided herself with 5000 roubles from her
husbands safe. They travelled through
various parts Of Europe. stopping finally
at Fiume. They no sooner put up at the
hotel when cipher dispatch ordered
them to return at once to Kief. This was
on January 5th. The nihilist, though
thinking it very strange his comrades re-
called him so quickly and demanded
him to put himself into immediate danger
of capture, followed the summons, and
with the Generals wife re-entered
Russia.
They no sooner crossed the frontier
when number of police officers in citi-
zens' dress entered the carriages and in
formed them that they were prisoners of
state. Arrived in Kief, they were at once
confronted by General Frowdeinki and
subjected to a rigid cross-examination.
The Generals wife, upon seeing her hus-
band, assumed determined attitude and
boldly said: 81 am a nihilist, and will
not reveal one single word that know"
The General tried his best to move her.
On receiving only defiant answers, he
finally got enraged, drew sword and
plunged it into his wife's heart, killing
her instantly. The nihilist was carried
off to st. Petersburg, where he is now
imprisoned.

MILAN AND NATALIE.
Their Reconciliation the Cause of
National Rejoicing,

NATIONAL Rejoicing.
BELGRADE, Jan. 22.-The Servian Rad
icals have Joined in a national rejoicing
over the reconciliation of Milan and
Natalie. The newspapers are vieing with
each other in expressing congratulations
and good wishes. Young King Alexan-
der telegraphed to his parents the an
nouncement that the reconciliation was
the pleasantest news ever received by
him and afforded him the happiest day
of his life. Many letters and kilograms of
congratulation were received by the King
and his parents from foreign courts.
In court circles it is said the reconciIia-
ton was due to pleadings of the son. but
this is not credited generally. The whole
affair is believed to have been the achieve
ment of Russian diplomats, who found
the absence of such a good friend as
Natalie a serious detriment to their inter-
ests. Milan was Russianized by secur-
ing loans from St. Petersburg, and his
return to Natalie it is believed is to be fol-
lowed directly by promise of further
payments from the same source. The
question as to the necessity of another
marriage ceremony is much discussed.
The divorce was not accepted as valid by
Natalie, although Milan always main
tanned that it was complete from every
point of view. AS the divorce was sane
toned by law it probably will stand.

EUROPEANS ALARMED,
Great Anxiety Over the Defiant Atti-
tude of the Khedive of Epypt.

GrSaO AHAlely over the DGnant Attf-
tude of the KhedIve of Egypt.
CAIRO, Jan. 22.-The good impression
caused by the success of Great Britain,s
Intervention in the Egyptian Cabinet af
fair is giving way to feeling of great
anxiety among European residents, in
consequence of the defiant attitude since
adopted by the Khedive. The Khedive's
open encouragement of popular demon
strations in his favor by ostentatious at
tendance at prayers in mosque and per
formances in the Opera-house had the
effect of greatly increasing the excite
ment among the natives caused by the
action of the British Government. Brit
ish officials here believe the Khedive's
course has shaken the British position in
Egypt and endangered the progress of re-
forms instituted by the British Govern
ment.
THE SITUATION VERY STRAINED,

The states Treasurer Likely tn Lose
Large sum.
OMAHA (Neb.) J, Jan. 22.-An Omaha Bee
special from Lincoln says: The startling
announcement of the failure of the Capt.
tol National Bank was made shortly after
II O'Clock tonight, and with it came the
statement that the State Treasurer was
| caught in the crash to the extent of $780,,
900. 1t is stated that the failure is bad
one, but the exact condition cannot be
ascertained tonight. The deposits
amount to S625, 1000, and of that amount
between $175,OO0 and S250,OOO are State
funds, for which the bond of the Treas
urer will be responsible. The capital
stock was S35O,OO0, all paid up. Cashier
Outcalt stated that the assets would pro-
tect depositors, but there is doubt ex-
pressed as to the correctness of the state
ment.
State Treasurer Barley is out of the
city, and no expression of the exact
amount of State funds on deposit can be
obtained tonight. 1t is stated that Bart
ley's bond is for s., 100000, 100000 more
than the law required, and the bondsmen
include nearly all the banks in Lincoln,
two at Fremont, one at Columbus, and
the Globe Loan and Trust Company at
Omaha.
The present institution was built on
the ruins of the Marsh Harvester Bank,
and the affairs of the bank have been in
bad shape for some time. What was the
immediate cause of the failure is not
known. A meeting of other bankers was
held this evening to provide against a
run tomorrow, and as representatives of
the Omaha banks were present to offer
assistance, the local bankers feel equal to
any emergency.

The Sunday Law Put Into Force-A
Small-sized Riot.
DENVER Coli, Jan. 22.-All the places
of amusement were closed tonight by
order Of the Police Board, and proprie-
tors and employees were arrested and
placed in jail Among the theaters raided
was the Tabor Grand Opera-house and
the Wonderland" The places were per-
mitted to get under way, and large aud
fences were present at all the theaters
when they were closed.
The police were forced to make arrests
by Rev. H. M. Hart, Dean of the Episco-
pal church, who has inaugurated cru
sade against Sunday amusenents, and in
sists upon the enforcement of the law,
which has heretofore been a dead letter.
After the theaters were closed an im-
mense crowd gathered on the principal
streets and talked the matter over. Much
excitement was existing. Suddenly a
move was made for Dean Hart's house,
and in short time about 1000 people
surrounded it, and after hooting and cat
calling, stones were thrown, smashing
windows. An arbitrary alarm was rang,
and the police soon arrived on the scene
and dispersed the crowd without making
any arrests. Nobody was in the bonn
barded building at the time, the dean
and family having been removed by
friends a short time before the mob ar
rived. The excitement soon subsidized,

PITTsBURG (Pa.), Jan. 22.-Mrs. Kate
Roster, widow, aged 23 years, and Geo.
Roster, her nephew, aged years, were
burned to death this morning in fire
which consumed four dwellings on Sails
bury street. -Four others-John Fetter-
leln, Mrs. Margaret Fetterlein, his wife,
and Sophia and Barbara, daughters-were
seriously burned, and narrowly escaped
similar fate to that of the first two
named. The cremation took place in the
house of John Fetterlein. About $50
this morning flames were seen issuing
from the kitchen, and before anything
could be done the house was ablaze. Mrs.
Kate Roster rushed up stairs to get the
boy, and was never seen again. One by
one the other members of the family at
tempted to rescue the two, but they were
driven back by smoke and fire, and after
all were seriously burned the task was
given up. On account of the lack of
water facilities the flames spread rapidly
and communicated to adjoining houses of
George Fetterlein, John Mahoney aud
John Roster, entirely consuming them.
The bodies of the two victims were re-
covered this afternoon, but they were
burned beyond recognition. The MEM
bers of the Fetterlein family, although
painfully burned, will all recover. Loss,
$1,000. The origin of the fire is not known.

PREMIER GLADSTONE.
The Great Statesman is Said to be
Failing.


LONDON, Jan. 22.-All the party leaders
have issued whips exhorting their follow
ers to be unremitting in attendance to
Parliamentary duties during the coming
session, as the home rule bill will be In
troduced shortly after the opening, and
heavy, hot debates are to be expected
from the beginning.
At Cabinet meeting yesterday the
Ministers discussed the legal aspects Of
the home rule bill.
Reports that Gladstone is failing have
caused great solicitude and some alarm
among the personal friends and advocates
of home rule. To dispel all doubts, he
walks and drives frequently in the parks,
besides sending out occasional details
that he is feeling no less strong and ener-
getic than formerly. There is general
apprehension among the Liberal English
men, however, that the Prime Minister
is not as well as he and his friends would
make the world believe. 1t is impossible
to verify the apprehensions, as Gladstone
is very closely guarded by his family and
nearest friends, and only personal and
political iEtinlates are able to gain access
to him.

cause they refused to recognize the three
new Ministers during the two days be-
tween the Khedive's nomination and
England's rejection of them. The Khe-
dive is credited openly with an intention
to dismiss all the highest English off,
cials. The language of the press is in
creasing in violence and alludes to the
khedive as hero. The Khedive, with a
strong nature impelling HIM to extremes,
and with preferences for the advisers in
terested in disturbing public order, can
easily be made the tool of clever heads
about court.

An Erring Wife VIII Return to Her
Home in Seattle.


New YORK, Jan. 22.-The Herald saws
in regard to the story of Assistant Attor-
ney-General Paul Dheirry's long chase
after his eloping wife from Seattle, who
ran off with music teacher. it is in
formed that Dheirry has forgiven his
wife, and is anxious to have her return
with him and Orba to Seattle. Dhelrrv
believes his wife left him during fit of
temporary insanity, and her infatuation
for music teacher Morse was due not to
any love for the man, but her passion for
music. To the French landlady who has
taken care of the wife and daughter
while Morse was off on a PROLONGED
spree, the husband declared Mrs.
Dheirry had always been a loving wife
and mother. Morse is not likely to meet
with treatment so considerate at the
hands of his deserted wife. Mrs.
Morse, the HerdLd's reporter was told
yesterday, will take immediate steps to
obtain a divorce.

BUSINESS BEFORE CONGRESS.

Measures Which VIII Probably be
Discussed the Present Week.
WAsTINGToN, Jan. 22.-The backward
state of the appropriation bills has i'm
pressed itself upon Congress. The Senate
is chargeable with greater delay, as the
House sent over three bills, neither of
which have yet been reported. The gen.
eral expectation is that the anti-option bill
will come to vote before the middle of
the week, and then the Appropriations
Committee will probably take the lead,
beginning with the fortifications or army
appropriations bill, and following with
others as rapidly as they can be reported.
Party feeling will probably manifest
itself in executive sessions during the
week in connection with the McComas
nomination, which is the unfinished
business when the Senate closes its doors.
The Torrey bankruptcy bill is the
special order for Tuesday and Wednes-
day, but the order gives the appropria-
ton bill precedence, and therefore the
bankruptcy bill will have to yield.
Blount proposes to call up the diplomatic
and consular appropriation bill on Tues
day, unless the sundry civil bill is in the
way. The general deficiency bill is also
on the calendar, and will be called up at
the first opportunity, and the military
academy bill is ready for report to the
House at any time.
The silver repeal bill is an unknown
quantity ir all calculations as to the bus
mess Of the Senate, and it may become
live issue at any time upon motion of the
Senate to proceed to its consideration,
but no such purpose has yet been openly
expressed.
The probabilities are that the House
during the coming week will also occupy
itself largely with the delayed appropria-
ton bills and will make an effort to catch
up with the record of previous short ses-
sions of Congress on supply bills. Mon
day Holman intends to call up the sun
dry civil bill. The other appropriation
bills, the legislative, pension, agricult-
ural, Indian, postoffice and naval bills
are still in the hands of subcommittee.
