Chances Slim for a Compromise.


WASHINGTON, d. c., Sept. d.
There seems to be little probability
of a compromise on the silver re-
peal bill question according to a
morning paper. 1t says: "An
agreement might be reached, but
for the forbidding attitude of Presi-
dent CIeveland."C ontinuingi it says {:
Senator Voorhees, is most likely
to know the Presidents condition
of.mind at this juncture, when the
compromise being urged, said in
reply to the direct question: Il
have not seen the president within
two weeks, nor have | heard from
him in relation to the silver ques-
ton. | do not believe he has
authorized any step in the direc-
ton of a compromise, and yet |
would not say that he has not. |
know nothing of the compromise
Senator German said there was no
compromise as far as he was con-
cerned. When asked if he knew
anything about the compromise
he did not answer"

Gladstone's Great Speech.

LONDON, Sept. 27.-Premier Glad
stone is to make a great speech at
Edinburgh today. He has accepted
the gage of battle thrown down by
the Upper House, and he is now
determined to make the fight all
along the line. They have invited
a life-and-death struggle, and he
has shrown his readiness to meet
them on their own grounds. I'm
the first place, Mr.. Gladstone has
decided not to dissolve parliament
after passing two or three meas
ures from the Newcastle program.
His purpose now is to carry out a
series of sweeping radical reforms
on a new line of policy, which he
will announce in the address to-
day.

FUsILADE OF BULLETS,
BY Lunatlc Fired in the Board Of
Trade.

Trade.
CHICAGO, Sept. PA fusilade of
bullets was fired into the wheat pit
on board Of trade today. Instantly
business was brought to a stand
still, and the widest excitement
ensued. A. y. Bennett, broker,
received a frightful and fatal wound
in the neck. Charles Roswell, tele-
graph operator, was shot in the
chin little hopes of his recovery.
The man who did the shooting
is evidently a lunatic. He is stout
man, middle aged, poorly dressed,
and for time refused to give any
name but "ChicagO." He subse-
quently gave his name as Cassins
Belden, of 800 LaSalle avenue, Chi
cago. Business was completely
suspended and everything was
CONSERVATION. Belden gained &C
cess to the gallery a few minutes
before noon. He fired at random
into the throng of spectators.
A. n. Bennett, secretary of the
Board of Trade Mutual Benefit as
ISOLATION, was shot III the neck,
the bullet ranging downward,
while Roswell received a ball in
the chin, SCATTERING his whole face.
The man who did the shooting
fired five times, twice at the wall
and then pointing the weapon
downwards towards the floor, and
fired three more times. Thomas
Barrett, a member of the board
captured the man and handed him
over to the police. The latter took
the matter very cody and did not
seem to realize what he had done,
The news that the murder has
been committed on change,
spread like wild fire, and ten thou
sand people swarmed through the
building.

fore the close of the present ses-

New jerseys Volunteer Firemen.

New jerseys Volunteer Firemen.
LAMBERTvILLE, N!J., Sept. 2S.-
The State Firemen's association
will hold its convention here today,
and action will be taken toward so
amending the laws regulating the
Relief Fund association that the
accommodating funds can be used in
the interest of small cities and
towns. The state law requires that
the fund shall only be used to as
sist tiremen who acquired their
disability in actual service. In
many of the small towns, where
fires rarely occur, there are but few
accidents, and hence the money ac-
cumulates and does no good. A
majority Of the volunteer firemen
think percentage of this money
should be used wherever needed, to
assist in equipping the depart
ment.
