Louisville Banks Reported o. X.

LOUISVILLE, Ky, July 26.-All
of the banks opened promptly, at
9 o'clock this morning, and pro-
ceeded with their business, as if
nothing had happened to disturb
the financial affairs of the COM

there was no indication that bust

quiet as it ever was. Those in
the position to know the truth, as
sert that every bank in the city is
solvent, and all that is necessary
to prevent further trouble is the
belief of this fact by depOsitOrs.

New Triple-screw Naval Ship.

WASHINGTON, July 26.-All the
naval officers are awaiting with in
terest the trial trip of the first
triple-screw ship, the Columbia,
which is to take place about this
date. The ship has recently been
taken out of the dock in Philadel-
phia, and the engineer officers and
constructors, who have examined
her thoroughly, report everything
in first-class condition. Accurate
measurements were taken of the
pitch of the screws, and marks
were made by which it will be pos
sible to alter the angle of the
blades, if it is deemed advisable.

The Territory France Wants.

PARIS, July 26.-The "Debats,"
after noting that the region south
of twenty-third parallel, to which
France hopes to extend her terri
tory in Siam, includes the pro-
vinces coded by Great Britain to
Siam, after the Burmese war,
makes these comments: "This, we
believe, is what Marquis, Of Duff
firm, was charged to represent to
Mr.. Dwella, and what China also
will direct attention. 1t is useless,
therefore, to shut our eyes to the
fact that, beyond certain points,
we no longer have to deal with
Siam, but perhaps with England,
and certainly with China"

SHOT TO KILL.
Tom Lockwood Uses a Pistol While
in a Fit of Anger.

in Fit of Anger.
a row occurred on the corner of
Pine and Crosby streets this morn
ing, which resulted in a shooting
scrape, and as result Tom Lock-
wood was arrested on the charge of
assault with intent to kill.
1t will be remembered that last
Saturday 60 MeXicans, employed
by Mathews x Reed, the cOntrac-
tors, who are constructing street
railway on Crosby and Pine streets,
quit work and demanded their pay
through Lawyer Mack Anderson.
Previous to this disagreement,
Tom Lockwood, who was acting as
foreman, and who was receiving a
salery of 50 per day, demanded
raise of 80 cents, and resigned his
position, when he was informed
that his demand would not be
complied with.
This morning Lockwood went
to the place where the men were
working, near the corner of Cros-
by and Pine streets. When he
arrived Jim Reed, one of the con-
tractors, accused him of being
the cause of the would-be
strike. Lockwood denied the allie
CATION, and, so Reed says, called
him some very vile names. A diff
ficulty arose and Reed struck Lock-
wood three times. The latter
stepped back and pulled out large
new revolver from his hip pocket.
Reed grabbed for it, and as he did
so Lockwood fired, the ball striking
Reed on the left hand and pass
ing up the arm. Reed was wild
with wrath at this period, and
jumped into vehicle and
went to consult his partner, Mr..
Mathews. He then went to the
Central police station and related
the circumstances. Two mounted
officers We're sent out to hunt
Lockwood. In the mean time Cap
tain Il. j. Hughes detailed Detec-
tive James Bowen to search for
Lockwood, and soon the officer re-
turned with the victim. He
was taken before Justice Anton
Adam on the charge of as
sault with intent to murder.
Lockwood waived examination and
was placed under a $1,000 bond, in
default of which he went to jail.
Lockwood is a nice looking young
man, about % years of age, and
has a good reputation. He feels
greatly embarrassed over the af-
fray, but claims he shot Reed in
self defence, as Reed was striking
him in the face, and being much
smaller man, could not defend
himself without the aid of
weapon. LOckwOod's face shows
signs of blows received, so he says,
at the hand of Reed.
The name of the defendant is
Lockwood, though he has given
the name of LOckridge.

A HORRIBLE FIND
By Flremen, of a Woman and two
Children in a Burning House.

By Flremen, of a Woman and two
Children in a Burning House.
PITTSBURG, July ga fearful
triple murder took place during
the early hours this morning. Two
children and their mother meeting
their fate at the hands of some
tiend. 1t was about o'clock in the
morning when the south side fire
department was called out to eX-
tinguish slight fire in the house
of John Mouse, who lived in
Oak alley, inside of the
hill. After eXtinguishing it, some
of the members of the department,
in looking about the house, were
Mortified at the sight Of three dead
bodies, lying close to one another.
They We're those of MOuSe'S wife
and two children. There were three
ugly, deep dents in the poor
wOman's head, which showed that
she had first been struck a deadly
blow from behind, then the fearful
work was finished with some
blunt instrument, either Ratchet
or hammer. The little children
had the appearance of having been
smothered to death, though their
poor bodies also showed marks of
violence. Their clothing was burn
ed little, though had they
been living when the fire start
ed they would have had
no trouble in getting away
from the small blaze. These
children were Mary and Maggie
and were four and two years old
respectively. The husband was at
once arrested, charged with COM
hitting the horrible crime. Mouse
is laborer, 30 years of age, and az
parently very ignorant. There
was one more child in the
family, but by some means the
little one escaped the general
massacre. The child who was
saved is only years old, but this
morning it weepingly told the
police that his father killed his
mother. "He hit her on the head
three times with Ratchet" sObbed
the little fellow. Neighbors think
jealousy was the cause of the awfnl

THAT MYSTERIOUS ROBBERY.
Was a Mistake Made, If Not, How
Did the Money DisappearP

"There is some miSunderStand-
ing" said mine host Mahncke to
LIGHT man, Gin respect to money
alleged to have been lost in tho
Mahncke hotel. Mr.. c., a guest in
the house, placed some currency in
an envelope, sealed it and handed
it to the night clerk. The safe
was closed, only the day clerk had
the combination, and he was
then absent, therefore the en-
VelOpe was held in a draw
err until the day clerk returned
when the night clerk handed it to
him and it was put in the safe.
Next day Mr.. c. demanded the
envelope and it was given to him.
No one knows, but himself, how
much money he placed in that
envelope, but he says that he put
S400 in it, and when opened it con-
tanned only 1920, in other words
$3.50 was missing. Mr.. c. is quite
confident he put in 800. On the
other hand Detective Hughes tells
me that the envelope has only
been once opened and that
is by a pencil-the way in which
Mr.. c.. opened it. | am satisfied
Mr.. c. is honest, but | think mis-
take has been made, but l have
offered, without prejudice to my
rights and in spirit of friendship,
to divide the loss with him. This
offer has been refused and it is
probable that suit will follow. |
expect too that the next grand
jury will investigate the matter.
That is just how the matter stands
now, and | know nothing more of
it."

Associated Press on Cholera

LONDON, July 26.-With refer
ence to the report of the presence
of cholera in Naples and the state
ment of the Associated press that
nothing had been ascertained upon
inquiry to justify it in asserting
that cholera was present in that
city, the London agent of the
Associated press has received
a letter from his representative
in Rome, saying that he telegraph
ed to London Saturday last, the
fact that the officials in Naples had
reported four cases of the diseases
having occurred there during the
early part of last week. This tele-
gram never was delivered, and
there is no doubt that it was
suppressed. The letter says
neither Naples nor Rome news
papers make mention of Cholera
anywhere in Italy, though the
Associated press advises shows
that it does prevail at Alessandria
and other places in Piedmont. 1t
further says that chOleraic dis
orders prevail at Gunner, capitol of
province of that name. AS
usual, pilgrimages have been pro-
hibited and cOrdOns of troops have
been established to enforce prohibit
