A Joplin Capitalist Fatally Wounded at
Wichita Mystery Attached to II.
WICHITA, Kan. Oct 25.-H. B. Noll,
merchant of Joplin, Mo-, was fatally
shot by highwaymen last evening IN
the south part of town. He was out at
Goddard to collect 81, 900 on some wheat
he had mortgage on, and was return
ing from there when, soon after enter
ing the city limits, two men stopped
him and asked him for some tobacco.
He had none, and they then remarked
that perhaps he had something more
valuable, and one of them placed gun
against Noll's breast and fired.
The ball passed through the right
lung. The highwaymen then searched
their victim and secured over $50, with
which they decamped. There is some
thing mysterious about the occurrence.
as Noll stated that he left for Goddard
Monday morning and was just return
ing last evening, but he was seen here
Monday night When first taken to
the hospital he remarked that he had
not thought they" would follow and
attempt to kill him.. but he has lapsed

LOST HIS WITS.
Consequently Adm. Stanton Lost
His Command.
HE SALUTED Adm. De MELLO.
The Navy Department Astonished and
Promptly Disavows the Act-Capt.
Picking Drops Into stanton's
Late Position.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 20. "A cablegram
from Berlin stated that "a dispatch to
the Nord Deutsche Zeitung from Rio
Janeiro says the American naval COM
mander has exchanged visits and sa-
lutcs with Adm. Mello, of the insurgent
fleet"
Secretary Herbert early saw the dis
patch. lie was 10th to believe the
statements were correct and expressed
his doubts to reporter who called upon
him. If Adm. Stanton had merely eX-
changed an ordinary unofficial visit on
business matters with Adm. Mello the
secretary would have not been sur
prised, nor probably would he have
taken any further notice of it, rs it is
said ut the navy department this would
not be improper.
But the secretary saw ut once the
serious and unfortunate nature OF the
action said to have been taken by the
admiral, and how it might be construed
by the lawful government of Brazil
He therefore lost no time in promptly
cabling to Rio for all the facts in the
case. to which he received prompt re-
ply by telegram from Rear Adm. STAN
ton, in command of the United States
naval forces at Rio dc Janeiro, that
this officer had saluted the flag of Adm.
Mello, commanding the insurgent fleet
This salute was unauthorized by any
instructions the admiral had received.
1t was an unfriendly act toward a
friendly power. and the secretary of
the navy, after consulting with the
president and secretary of state, issued
an order detaching Adm. Stanton from
command of his squadron and turning
it over to Capt. Kicking. the next Off
Ger in rank
Naval officers talked with on the sub
iect are at loss to account for so serl-
Gus detection from duty on the part
of Adm. Stanton. 1t is said that Capt.
Picking will remain in charge of the
fleet of American ships in the harbor
possibly permanently. or at any rate
until a successor to Rear Adm. Stanton
is appointed. Commodore Ramsey. chief
of the bureau of navigation. said it had
not vet been determined who would
succeed Stanton.
Secretary Herbert expressed his sur
prise that an officer of Adm Stanton
experience and standing should COM
nit such u blunder. and his prompt ac-
ton is taken with the purpose of an
nouncing to the world that the United
States government has taken no steps
to refuse recognition to the legally
constructed Brazilian government.

Complications Over the Identification OF
One of the Battle Creek Victims.
BATTLE CREEK, Mich, Oct. 25.-A sad
mistake has occurred in the identified
ton of the bodies taken from the wreck
here. DIR. Sweetland, of Edwardsburg,
Mich, editor of the Argus, identified
the body of one of the victims as that
of his sister, Mrs. Eveline Aldrich. OF

to that place. The coroner has just

that of his wife. She was identified by

wife, and DIR. Sweetland is just as PES
tive that they are his sisters remains.

Four More Persons Killed In Wreck Mt
Harrisburg, Pa.
HARRISBURG, Pa, Oct. 26-Four men
were killed in wreck on the Pennsyl-
vania railroad in this city ut exactly
the spot where the Dock street horror
occurred in June, 1892. A loaded
freight train going east was boarded
at Market street by five men, who got
into coal car. Two squares away the
coal car jumped the track Mt switch,
and half a dozen cars were tilted oil
end and crashed into west-bound
train of empty cars. The car in which
the men were sitting was hurled into
the middle of the grinding mass, and
four were instantly killed and one in
jured.
1t is almost impossible to identify
three of the men, owing to their being
crushed out of recognition. The fourth
is known to be Richard Doyle, of Pitts
burgh, a railroader out of work. Two
of them were boiler makers and the
fourth Il switchman. They were well
dressed, and the man who was injured
saws they came from Illinois or Ohio
and had families.
Frank Ward, of Burlington, Ia, was
the only man who escaped. He says
that Frederick Gimmell was one of the
men killed. They were all bound for
Philadelphia.

trouble by the interference of the fed
eral government. There are twenty
nine men to be tried next month on a
charge of murder. Their friends
will again call on the Uni

of company A. Thirteenth infantry

not known how long before he will be

MUST BE SUPPRESSED.
Louisiana Citizens Making m Effort to

Louisiana Citizens Making an Effort to
stamp Out the Ramsay Tuggie Feud.
New ORLEANS, Oct. 25.-The attempt
ed assassination of A. X. Clingman, pro-
prietor of the Clingman nursery, grow
ing out of the Ramsay-Tuggle feud,
have finally aroused the people of Clai-
borne parish. who have announced
their determination to put an end to
this disgraceful feud and the frequent
assassinations that have resulted from
it. Originating n few years ago over
dog, there have been ten people killed in
the parish in consequence and nine Sc
riously wounded. There has been some
lull in the feud in the last four months
consequent to the fact that most of the
principals had been killed off and what
were left of the Ramsay family moved
away.
They left some friends behind, how
ever, for few weeks ago Murray Tug
gle, son of one of the murdered Tug
giles, was shot from ambush. and still
later John Ferguson, n relative of one
of the Tuggle faction. was shot and
killed in the same way, simply to get
possession of some letters he had bear
ing on the case and which were stolen
from his body after the murder 1t
was generally supposed that the assas-
sin in both cases was Tom Kinder, one
of the last of the Ramsayites left in the
parish.
by this time the people ofiClaiborne
were sicl, and tired of these assassina-
tions and some of the leading citizens
insisted that they be suppressed.
Among them was Mr.. A. X. Clingman,
proprietor of the Clingman nurseries,
who was outspoken in condemnation
of the violence. Kinder called on
Clingman few days ago and wanted
to know if he proposed to lead mob
against him, and threatened him
if he discussed the matter any
more. He called again Saturday,
announcing his intention to kill
Clingman in the presence of his family.
The latter had armed himself with a
shotgun and they exchanged shots.
Clingmans gun knocked Kinder from
his saddle, but inflicted no serious in
Jury. rs he wore n breast-plate. Kim
der continued firing and Clingman
concluded it hest to come to Homer for
safety. The sheriff and a posse started
at once after Kinder with bloodhounds.
He is likely to fare badly if caught, as
the popular demand is that the feud be
suppressed by the most energetic
methods.

idea of retrenchment Mr.. Curtis re-
Piled: "There is no disposition on the
part of the treasury to stop in any
way the work on public buildings, nor
have any orders been issued to shut
down. On the contrary the secretary
recently asked for an appropriation OF
$50, 900, in order that plans and specih-
cations for new buildings can be
prepared and work be given the
people. There is no false senti-
ment of economy nor any desire to
prevent the employment of anyone in
order to make better showing in q
financial way. Work on the various
public buildings in course of erection
is going on, as it will continue to do.
I am not aware that anv change is con-
templated by Mr.. Carlisle"

Gen. Joseph Gourllo was the fore

touched the cross rails when the en-
gine of the other train, attached to
long string Of loaded coal cars, and
known as the Bloomington district coal
train, crashed into the tender OF limit
ed engine, tearing it loose and throwing
the engine into the ditch. All the cars
following were thrown off the track
and upon their sides. Seats and win
dows were smashed and the sides OF
the cars broken in. Most of the pas

threw many to the floor. Splintering
of the cars and flying glass did the
worst damage Those in the forward
