A DISSATISFIED NATION.
Germany Surprised at the Succession of the
English Duke.


BERLIN, Aug. 26.-The succession Of
the Duke of Edinburgh to the rulership
OF the duchies of Saxe-Coberg and Gotha
dominates the political interest in Ger
many and widely diverted rumors in re-
gard to the matter are everywhere circu-
lated. Putting all these aside there is no
doubt that the succession of the English
duke has surprised and dissatisfied the
nation, though the fact is quietly &C.
cepted by the duchies concerned. It is
probable that Emperor William would
have preferred that Prince Alfred, only
son of the Duke of Edinburgh, should
have succeeded Duke Ernst; indeed it is
believed that his majesty hoped that he
Edinburgh, to favor his claim to success
sion in favor of Prince Alfred. His
majesty is reported to have told the duke
that under any circumstances a regeucy
would be impossible, and he must take
care of himself or abandon all connection
with the duchies. Finding the duke
resolute in his determination to forego
none of his rights and also finding. his
mother, Queen Victoria, supporting him
in his attitude, the emperor put on the
best face possible and acquiesced to the
dukes succeeding.
The EXTREMIST press, radical and con-
servative alike, are indulging in Anglo
phobia criticism. They harp upon the
inexpediency of admitting the relative Of
a powerful foreign house into secrets of
the federation. Nothing is yet publicly
known as to the disposition of the late
dukes property. 1t always has been
supposed that he is immensely
wealthy. Certainly his estates are
extensive enough. Apart from the
palaces, castles and shooting lodges owned
by him in Germany, he is proprietor of
one of the finest sporting domains in
Europe, situated in Suatrian Tyrol. All
these properties are entailed and pass to
his successor.

ANOTHER ACCOUNT.
A List of the Killed Was Understandable
This Morning.


LONG ISLAND CITY, L. l., Aug. 81
This city was startled just before mid
night last night by telephone message
from Laurel Hill reporting that Rock
away Beach train and q Manhattan
Beach train had been in collision
there and that a great many persons
had been hurt and SIX OF seven killed
outright. The Long Island railroad depot
was notified to send on wrecking train
at once and special train to bring in the
injured, to have ambulances and surgeons
at hand to receive them and to send
doctors TO Laural Hill if possible.
The first report was that it was the
regular last train from Rockaway Beach
which leaves the beach at II p. N. that
had been run into by the extra from Man
haitian Beach which was bringing back
the crowd from the fireworks at Coney
Island.
The railroad officials who came up to
Long Island City at O'Clock this morn
ing said on the contrary, that the extra
Manhattan train was at a stand still, held
on the block by the telegraph operator
when the Rockaway train came along and
ran into it. Both trains were crowded j,
the standing train especially SO, and he
said he believed twelve persons had been
killed and thirty or thirty five injured.
At this hour ambulances with two
surgeons from Long Island college hos
pital are waiting in the Long Island sta
ton for the arrival of the special train
with the sufferers.
The collision occurred just beyond the
Penny bridge, and how it happened that
the Manhattan Beach train was held
there is not known. There were unusual
attractions and the Manhattan beach and
Coney Island extra train was run to help
bring them home.
The wounded lare being hurried to the
hospital as fast as the meager facilities
at hand will allow. An express
car just arrived containing fifteen of the
wounded. Three of them died on the
way here. One of them of middle age,
had both legs cut off. The doctors say a

BLOODY RIOT IN CHICAGO.
Conflict Between Police and
Parading Unemployed Men.
"A FIERCE BATTLE FOUGHT.
The Police Charge the Crowd and
Finally Dispense Them.
Several of the oncers and Rioters Are
Severely Injured-sIayor Harrison
VIII Not Permit Any More
Meetings or Parades.

CHICAGO, Aug. pa short but bloody
riot occurred in front of the city hall at 8
O'Clock this afternoon, when police Off
GERS and parading unemployed workmen
came together and clubs and rocks were
used with serious effect. Inspector Alex
Ross, Sergeant Swift and Patrolman
James Larkin, policemen, were more or
less injured; Michael Horoviez and John
WenzeI, rioters, were cut about the head.
At this afternoon hundreds OF unem-
ployed men gathered at the Lake Front
park to listen to an address relative to
the labor situation. AT the close of the
speech making they formed for parade
and preceded by band marched up
Washington street, completely blocking
Washington and Clark streets a United
States mail wagon attempted to get
through the crowd. Word was sent to
Inspector Ross who was in his Office IN
the city hail. The inspector walked over
to the corner OF Clark street and calling
couple of policemen ordered them to clear
passage for the mail wagon. This an
gered the crowd.
Near the sidewalk was buggy belong
ing to j. H. Martindale, whom the crowd
directed to get out Of the way. This he
could not do and the mob seized the
buggy and threw it upon the sidewalk
with crash. 1t was when Inspector
Ross at this moment followed by three
officers rushed into the crowd and ordered
it back that rioting commenced.
Ross was struck on the head with q
paving stone and felled to the earth. The
officer regained his feet and attacked the
maddened crowd. With powerful blows
he knocked down several rioters, his men
standing by him pluckily. The crowd
was too strong for them, however. and
when Sergeant Swift went down with
broken head Inspector Ross drew his re-
volver and kept the mob at bay for an
instant. Inspector Shea hurried from the
city hall at the head of @ dozen men and
charged the crowd. The police by this
time had got the better of the mob and
had forced 1t back, after a lively struggle,
In which clubs, stones and revolver
handles were freely used on both sides.
A few minutes later Inspector Lewis
came up at the head of seventy men, fol-
lowed later by patrol wagons bearing 200
more policemen, when the crowd, which
numbered Z, eco by this time, was quickly
dispersed. When Mayor Harrison a few
minutes later learned of the fight, he
ordered that hereafter there should be no
more parades nor meetings allowed.
After the men dispersed at the city hall
they again assembled at the lake front,
where speech making was resumed.
Mayor Harrison addressed the crowd and
implored the men to go back to their
homes and manfully endure their tempo
rary misfortune. He declared they would
gain nothing by parades and demonstra-
tons, which he would not tolerate.
When he had finished the crowd cheered
the mayor.

why Camphor Is High.

Druggists say carnpher has mounted up
in price until it is nearly quadruple what
it was a few years ago. 1t now sells for
rs to so cents per pound, as against 20
cents. There are two causes for this.
One is export of the article, the other is
the increased consumption, occasioned by
the use of the drug in the manufacture
of smokeless powder, into the compost
ton Of which it largely enters as an i'm
portant ingredient. The consumption in
this way has lately been still more in
creased by the addition of Japan to the
nations that are making their powder
with the smokeless quality.-Nelc York

He Commits Suicide at the Grand Hotel
in San Francisco.

in San Francisco.
PHILADELPHIA, Aug. 26.-The man who
committed suicide at the Grand hotel,
San Francisco, at which hosiery he reg
istered under the name OF r. w. Parker,
but whose right name was WILDER Pros
pet Kookoge, was well known in this city
as ''Count" Kookoge. He figured in
many scandals and was arrested in Cam
den, N. j., in March, 1892, for bigamy,
on complaint of his newly welded wife,
the daughter of James NJ. Scovel, of Cam
den. At the trial he was found guilty and
sentenced to five years in the penitentiary.
This spring he was released under parole.
Since then nothing has been heard Of
Count and it was supposed that he
was with his first wife on the Pacific
coast.
According to the dispatch, he must
have confided some of the details of his
phantom fortune. His hopes of an estate
depended on the death of his mother, who
for long time lived in this city, but was
finally compelled by reason of her sons
riotous method OF living to go to France,
where she now is. She granted the
sscount' a monthly allowance, which
never was equal to his opportunities.
