DETROIT, Aug. 3O.-The inquest in
the case of Michael O'Brien, who was
shot and killed last Friday afternoon
by Captain William Lennon of the
schooner Reuben Doud. while on the
latter's vessel, began before Coroner
Tuesday.
After a lot of evidence had been
heard, all of which was favorable to
the captain and tended to show that
the shooting was in selfdefense and
justifiable, the inquest was adjourned
until next Wednesday. The reason for
this was that Walter Groves, president
of the Seamen's Benevolent association,
was present from Chicago, where the
headquarters of the union are, and he
asksd for time to produce the man who
was with O'Brien when the latter was
shot. There might be some other side
to the affair, he said, and as O'Brien
was member of the association.
Groves wanted to have the matter in
vestigated to the fullest extent.

WAS REPORTED BACK
THE WILSON REPEAL BILL IN THE
SENATE.

Senator voorhees, offered a Substitute and
Resolution Referred to the Finance
Committee-The House.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 30.-Mr. Voor-
hees Dem., Ind.), chairman of the
finance committee, reported back the
house bill repeating part of the Sherman
act, with an amendment in the nature
of q substitute. He asked that the bill
be placed on the calendar. and he gave
notice that he should ask the senate to
take it up and consider it Immediately
after the morning business from this
time on until final action be taken.
The substitute, he said was exactly the
bill heretofore reported from the finance
committee. He understood that notice
of an intention to address the senate
had been given by the senator from
Georgia (Mr. Gordon and the senator
from Ohio (Mr. Sherman) and he sug-
gested that their remarks might be
made on the bill which he had just re-
ported. He explained further that the
bill as reported from the finance COM
mittee was identical with that passed
by the house so far as concerned the re-
peal of the purchasing clauses of the
Sherman act; and that, from that point
on, there was certain matter in the
substitute which was not in the house
bill and which, in his judgment. i'm
proved 1t and made it more acceptable.
Mr.. Teller Directing to Mr.. Voorhees,
bill being taken up, it went over under
the rules until today.
The resolution offered by Mr.. Stewart
(Rep., New directing the secretary Of
the treasury to inform the senate
whether there is danger of deficiency
in the revenues of the government dur
ing the current year; and, if 80, what is
the probable amount of such deficiency
and whether legislation is necessary to
supply such deficiency Referred to
the finance committee.
Mr.. Dolph (Rep., Orr introduced q
bill, which was referred to the commit
tee on foreign relations, appropriating
$500, 900 to enable the secretary of the
treasury to enforce the Chinese exclu-
sion act.
Mr.. Gordon (Dem., Ga.) addressed
the senate in favor of the unconditional
repeal of the purchasing clause of the
Sherman act.
Mr.. Teller (Rep., Colo.) addressed the
senate in an argument to prove that
the Sherman law is not responsible for
the financial troubles of the country.

Valuable Horse Stolen.

YPsILANTI, Aug. 2S.--Charles Roberts,
prominent and welltodo farmer living
on the Detroit and Saline road three
miles west of this city, drove home,
reaching there about II o'clock. He
put his large, valuable horse in the
barn. When he arose Sunday morning
the horse was gone, together with har-
ness and new buggy. The horse was
valued at $3.50. There is no clue to the
thief. For three years past farmers
have been losing horses, but as yet not
one has ever been recovered or the thief
caught. A large number of farmers
and the sheriff and his deputies are out

There's O soide diferenc

There's wide difference
between the help that's talked of
and the help that's guaranteed.
Which do you want, when you'reA
buying medicine?
If you're satisfied with words, you
get them with every blood-purifier
but one. That one is DR.. Pierce's
Golden Medical Discovery. With
that, you get guarantee. If it
doesn't help you, you have your
money back. On this plan, medi-
cine that promises help is pretty
sure to give it.
But it's because the medicine is
different, that it's sold differently.
It's not like the sarsaparillas, which
are said to be good for the blood
in March, April, and May. At all
seasons and in all cases, it cures
permanently, as nothing else can,
all the diseases arising from tor
pid liver or from impure blood.
It's the best blood purifier, and
it's the cheapest, no matter how
many doses are offered for a dollar.
With this, you pay only for the
good you get.
Can you ask more?

JACKSON, Aug. 30.-A man in state
prison cannot receive dependent PEN

with back money, to $1,000, his son

Special Examiner Smith looked into
the case. He was informed by the pen
sion Office that Moore was not entitled
to pension while he was supported by

resumed when he was discharged.
Moore had already received up to July
