Tho Oliver Iron and Steel Company
Financially Embarrassed.
PITrsBURG, Aug. 1.-THE Oliver Iron
and Steel company, one of the largest
concerns in the country, went into the
hands of a receiver today, on application
OF the National Tube Works company of

ceiver. The company has extensive
plants in Pittsburg and Allegheney and
employs 400O men. It is also largely in
terested in coke and natural gas. Its
sales aggregate S., soc, 900 annually.
George T. Oliver, president of the
Oliver & Roberts Wire company, said
"The appointment of a receiver for the
Oliver Iron and Steel company will not
affect the other Oliver corporations
under my active management. These
companies, like all other business inter-
ests, are suffering from the stringency
in money and the unprecedented busi-
ness depression, but as far as can now
see, they are fully able to meet their
liabilities.

MUTTERINGS OF A MOB.
LYNCHlNG ON DECK AT
SAN BERNARDINO.
Young Bohn's Friends Thirstiug for His
Murderer's Blood :. Tho jail
Guarded by q Force OF
Armed Men,

By the Associated Press.
SAN BERNARDINo. Aug. 7.-The final
testimony in the preliminary examina-
ton of C.M. Button for killing Gus
Bohn, in Bear Valley, was taken today.
the decision of the court will be given
tomorrow. The only one in the party
who was not drunk when the killing
took place was Claude Henderson, q boy
IL years of age. His testimony was
substantially as follows:
nL~.t Sunday ahank 3 n,olnok sxe got
to the fish camp, Fred Heaps. Charley
Button, Steve Harlow, Gus Bohn and
myself. All the men in the party were
drinking whisky. At the camp Bohn
lay down on a rock with Button, five or
ten steps away. They got into q dis
pute, and finally Button walked over
and stamped Bohn in the face with his
heavy boot, breaking his cheek bone.
Button then started away, and Bohn,
crazy with pain, rolled over on his face
on the ground. When he had recovered
little he caught up butcher knife,
but Heaps took it away from him.
Bohn then caught up his gun and stood
behind tree with his gun leveled at
Button, who yelled at Bohn three times
to put down his gun. but the latter
made no reply. Bohn then snapped
his gun at Button, but there being no
load in it, he had to put his hand down
to pump shell into 1t. Button in the
meanwhile caught up his gun and shot
Bohn, killing him.
Bohn's German friends about town for
the last two days have made threats Of
lynching Button, and it is said mob
was about to make an attempt last
light. Sheriff Booth has placed 15 armed
men with shot guns in the county Jail
and che leaders of the mob have been
warned that Button will be protected.
The recent experience in the lynching
Of Jesus Fuen has aroused the better
class of people to sustain the sheriff in
suppressing mob violence. 1t is not un-
likely that if the mob present them
selves at the Jail, they will be
welcomed first by salute of cold water
from fire hose.

THE TORTURE DANcr.
An Awful Scene of Barbarity Witnessed

An Awful Scene of Barbarity witnessed
at the Worlds Fair.
CHICAGO, Aug. ia thousand people
lined the edge Of the grand basin at the
worlds fair today and watched four
Quappelle Indians undergo the torture
dance. The horrible ceremony took
place on float in the center of the
basis. The four braves who underwent
the dance had thongs passed through
strips of flesh cut in the back. Other
Indians took the loose ends OF the
thongs, and, using them as reins, drove
the others around the float as if they
were driving horses. causing most ex-
cruciating agony. Finally the thongs
were pulled entirely loose, the tearing
of the flesh causing the blood to flow.
One of them lost his reason because OF
the awful pain and suffering. He sprang
upon Interpreter Ford, and, fastening
his teeth in his arms, hung on until the
united strength of several men was nee
essary to open his Jaws. 1t is thought
he will recover his reason in short
time

HOUSE pKoCEED1NGs.
A spiritless Discussion OF tho Financial
Question.

A 5piritless Discussion of tho Financ iaI
Question.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 1.-THE financial
discussion in the house today was spir-
itless and uninteresting. 1t ia doubtful
if quorum could have been mustered
on roll call at any time today. Thd
proceedings OF the house will hardly REL
sumo animation before the beginning
OF next week.
The silver debate was resumed and
Daniels (Rep.) of New York spoke In
favor of the repeal Of the purchasing
clause OF the Sherman act. Congress,
ne said, should intervene to give some
measure of relief to the people by
changing the financial policy. For the
past IA years the accumulation of silver
had been going on. Instead of silyeI
going into circulation it had gone into
the treasury, and there it remained as
a useless article, so far as currency was
concerned. The people had become
confident that the law of 1890 should be
repealed.
Cooper (Dem.) of Florida, said hs
would vote for the Wilson bill and
against each and every one OF the pro-
positions presented by the silver men.

It was inevitable. he said. that any reg

An Interesting Session OF tho United
Presbyterian Synod.

Presbyterian Synod.
CHAUTAUoUA, N. Y, Aug. 1.-THE
principal business which has come be-
fore the sessions of the United Presby-
terian synod has been the appeal case
from the decision of the Philadelphia
presbytery in the case of Rev. Mr.. Lee,
a pastor of that city, who administered
the sacrament to dying man without
ebeying the fundamental law that a
weeks notice shall be given from the
pulpit before such sacrament is ad-
ministered. The presbytery censured
him for this violation. The United
synod voted tonight to exonerate him,
and there was also heated debate on
the case of two members suspended
from Buffalo church, DIR. Barr saying
in the course of the discussion that
great caution should be used in all such
cases, "for," said he, sin another case
that may come before this synod mem
ber has said If he were suspended he
would make it hotter than hell Tor

Thomas j. Morgan, Chicago social
ist. who was invited to speak yesterday,
and whose remarks about the church
alternating many workingmen by its in
tolerance created somewhat OF a sensa-
tion, found supporter in a certain
measure in the person of Rev. @. r.
Henderson of Detroit, who said Chris
tian people might well act upon some
OF the suggestions made by Morgan.
The church was too exclusive in many
respects. If the churches would open
their doous more freely and allow work

would be better feeling all around. ~
