RUSSIAN BARBAKITY.

The horrible crulties practiced by
the Russian Government upon po-
litieal prisoners have been fully de-
scribed by Geo. Kenna. His revela-
tIons were so terrible that they were
not believed
Now comes the story of some
shipwrecked sailors mistaken for
spies. Here is what they wit
messed:
The FIVE men got fifty lashes each
and then came the woman. The
poor creature was soon to become a
mother, and as she was led past the
Governor she threw herself at his
feet and begged that he would post
pone the fugging until after her badly
was born. Her appeal was in vain,
for the Governor replied that the
laws made by the Car must be
obeyed, and she was ordered to strip
The woman gave one look at the sea
of faces around her, and then. with
the assistance of one Of the soldiers,
removed her clothing.
Like the men she was stripped
naked and strapped to the board At
the third stroke she became insen>
sible. and remained so until the full
fifty lashes had been administered.
when she was taken from the board
and carried to the prison hospital
Tcree hours afterward she gave birth
to dead baby. This / learned from
the Swede, who visited the hospital
every day. The woman's body was
In tatteTs.
If the woman who was thus treated
were to kill the Car it would be a
clear case Of justitiable homicide.

under the name of legitimate bust

PITTsBURG, July IA. - About 5000
people were present at the last day of

ence was extremely enthusiastic. The
day was beautiful and the track in ex-
cellent shape, having dried just enough
after yesterdays rain. The sun beat
down hot, but cool breeze was going.
The betting quarters were surrounded
constantly by the plUngers, there beng
more men around the stands than in
the grand stand. Many ladies who had
been i'll attendance during the week
came out to see the wind-up. In the
morning a big crowd was present to

BRIGHTER THAN EVER.

FINANCIAL SITUATION.
BANKS REPORT BIG RECEIPTS.

The ComptrolIer's Call Will Re-
lease a Large Amount of Cur
rency-Offerings of CONNER
cial Paper Light-Bank State
ments Better Than Ever
NEW YORK, July 1.-THE marked
Improvement In the financial situation,
which was first noticed by bank officers
two or three days ago, was reported to-
day to show no sign of abatement, and
the situation this morning was declared
to be more encouraging than yesterday.
Today the subtreasury was debtor at
the clearing house 1903, 600, and the
percentage of cash used in the
payment of balances was expect
ed to be greater than yesterday.
This morning one national bank re-
tired $4,000 of its loan certificates.
These certificates will now be retired
by the large banks, day by day. as they
are received by the clearing house in
payment of balances.
The banks reported this morning the
receipt of large amounts of currency
from the country. and a noticeable de-
crease in the applications for redis-
counts and other accommodations by
country banks in the mornings mails.
One prominent downtown national
bank with very large country con-
nectiou did not have single application
for rediScount in its mail today. The
comptroller's call for the statement of
the condition of national banks
as of July IL will, it is be-
lieved, release a large amount of
currency. Commercial paper was not
pressing very much today. but some
trSt-claSs single-name fonr-monthS pa
per was bought atrates running from 10
10 l5 per cent. The offerings, however,
are light, and it is argued by bankers
from this that the merchants and manu-
facturers who trimmed their sails to the
Wind before the financial storm
swept over the land are now
IN fairly good condition. A
bank president said today that
the regular statement of their condition
put out this month by business men,
merchants and manufacturers, show
that they are in very good condition
better, in fact, than was expected.
These statements show that they have
comparatively little stock on hand
and more book accounts outstand-
ing than they had at the same time
i'll 1890, the year of the panic
Then they had large amounts of stock
on hand and not so much money owing
to them as now. This is believed to be
very good sign, as it indicates that the
recovery among the manufacturers will
be much quicker. In some Western
cities it has been learned that the mer-
chants have pooled their stocks of goods
and exchanged with one another to suit
their own requirements. thus working
OF their surplus stocks without loss.

CANNON GETS GAY.
His Friends Are Mad Because He
Did Not Get an Office.

NEW YORK, July 1.-THE Herald
says: A serious disaffection among the
members in the Irish American element
of the Democratic party is threatened by
the failure of the president to recognize
Judge w. Y. Cannon, of Nebraska.
Judge Cannon is we'll known in this
city. He is distinguished in his pro-
feSSiOn, but with none of the blusterer
about him. He has since 1884 been one
OF tbs most conspicuous Cleveland men
among the Western. He was the leader
of the Democrats In the campaign of
1890. Friends of Mr.. Dickinson led
the Judge to seek President
Cleveland, and explained to him
what he had done, and they say Mr..
Cleveland said he would be glad to see
such distinguished lriSh-Ameriean
have recognition from the party. In
qulry, however, developed the fact that
protest had been signed by John
Dewey and two other recent Republic
ans. The appointment of Porter, of
tennessee, as minister to Chilli, fol-
lowed. and 1t was stated that Judge
Cannon had not been given the place
because of this protest. Mr.. Cleve-
lands friends looked foolish when
Judge Gannon's supporters caused to
be laid before them the proof that
Dewey was strong Republican in 1888,
and was the organizer of the anti
Cleveland lrish-American league. The
Chief grievance of these protests seems
TO have been that Cannon would
not take sides in the controversy
which grew out of the murder of DIR.
Cronin. He had declared in the hear
ing of Dewey that he did not think Alex
ander Sullivan was a murderer. When
they found that it was Republican inter
ference, friends of Mr.. Cleveland said
they would try to get Mr.. Cannon the
appointment of minister to the Argen-
tine Republic. There was further de-
lay. Then Secretary of Agriculture j.
Sterling Morton, of Nebraska, reported
that Mr. Cleveland had decided not to
appoint the judge to any position. but
that the government might employ him
in certain lawsuits in Ne braska. Gan
non friends wrote Secretary Morton to
make public statement of the influ-
ences that led to the defeat of the Judge
and to throw more light on the mystery I.

WORK THE MERCHANTS.
A New Scheme to Advance the
Silver Cause.

PUEBLO, Col, July 1.-the more
conservative element of the people of
Colorado realized that the silver con-
vention held at Denver during the
first of the current week accomplished
nothing toward the purpose for which
it was assembled. Since the convention
has failed in accomplishing what was
desired, a proposition is on foot to call
another convention, which shall aim at
tn pockets rather than the sympathies
OF those whom it is hoped to convert to
the ideas of the West. The proposed
convention is to be composed Of bust
ness men, and the direct object which
is sought is a combination among mer-
chants, with the Intention of dlVerting
the trade of Colorado and adjoining
states from the wholesale of the East
to that of the South. 1t is argued
that New Orleans is much nearer to
the Rocky Mountain states than is
either New York, Boston or Phila-
delphia, that it is seaport centrally
located from which can be furnished
every article needed by the West upon
terms equally advantageous with those
at present obtained. 1t is believed that
by diverting this volume of trade from
the accustomed channels, the eyes of
the Eastern opponents of silver will be
opened and their assistance may be en-
listed

purse ever offered in a race of this kind
and over 5000 sporting men from all
parts of the world will be present,
among whom will be Harry Bethune
and j. II. Gibson, of England. 1t was
the original intention to have the event
take place in Chicago, but it was not
deemed favorable, as proper facilities

VICE PRESIDENT STEVENSON
He Refuses to State His Views
on the Silver Question.

Los ANGELES, CAL. July 14.-Vice
President Stevenson was requested by
reporter today to state his views on
the silver question. He replied that it
was just what hundreds of other news
paper men had asked him to do, but he
had steadfastly refused to talk on that
subject or on political topics of any
kind, as he was on a trip for pleas
ure and health. Chief Justice Shope, of
Illinois. who is with Vice President
Stevenson's party, was asked for his
views Oh the silver question and re-
piled, II have none, so far as definite
remedy for the present condition of
affairs is concerned. l don't believe
any man exists who is big and broad
enough to tell exactly what to do.
Silver men have their emphatic views.
gold men their panacea, but the result
must be compromise, which will have
to be an experiment. No man can tell
just how it is going to work. / had
several hours talk with Vice President
Stevenson on this subject and he agreed
