THOSE INTERNATIONAL GAMES.
Harvard Athletes Are Particularly Anx-
ious for Them.

Harvard Athletes Are Particularly AnN-
ious FOR Them.
CAMBRIDGE, Mass, November 20.-The
interviews with prominent Oxford ath-
letes cabled from London, in which the
idea was suggested that, if Yale or a
team made up from Yale and Harvard
should challenge an Oxford Cambridge
team to an international athletic contest,
the Englishmen would very likely send
a team to this country next year, has
aroused great interest among the college
athletes. Captain Norman Bingham,
Jr., OF the Harvard-New Haven team
was seen to-day, and he said:
Harvard certainly favors the idea OF
a Joint Harvard Yale track and athletic
team meeting Joint team from Oxford
and Cambridge, and would undoubtedly
agree to competition on either side OF
the water this spring. | should like to
see a representative team picked at large
from the colleges, from the choice of it's
members, resting on the results on in
tercollegiate games at New York. OF
course, Yale, being the winner last
spring, is the one to make the first adj
vanCes to Harvard or to the other col
leges. | feel sure that Harvard will do
everything she can to further the plan.
Nothing official, however, has vet been
done. Several Harvard graduates have,
however, been working in the interest of
the matter, but they have arrived at no
definite decision as yet. 1t lies with
Yale to take the initiative, and Harvard
will follow her lead"

Suffering for Faiths Sake.

WASHINGTON, November 19.-An in
teresting feature of the Seventh Day
Adventists' conference was a recital in
the report of Secretary B. S. Horton,
which was read to-day, of the persecu-
tions to which the denomination is sub
iected in certain localities. 1t is reported
that two mem bers are in jail at Center
vile, Md, Tor chopping wood on Sun
day. In some places it has been impos-
sibe to induce insurance companies to
insure church property on account OF
fear of incendiarism, and the Secretary
said he had oft been served with whitecap
notices for trying to conduct meetings.
The reports showed a membership of
S54, 900 in good standing in the United
States

Domestic Troubles Cause Double Muir
der and suicide.

DOmPatiU Troubles cause Doublt MUIR
der and suicide.
EIMIEA, n. y, November l9.-This
city was startled this afternoon over Il
report that a triple murder had been
committed on Hudson street The facts
are briefly these; NJ. V. Straight, who
conducts -four and feed store, and his
wife have not lived together for the past
few weeks on account OF domestic diff
culties. This morning Mr.. Straight sent
a note to his wife asking forgiveness and
requesting her to take him back. She
failed to reply. This angered the hus-
band, and he purchased a 3S-Caliber
Smith & Wesson revolver of five cham
beers, although he already had another
revolver OF like pattern. This afternoon
he saw his wife and her sister, Mrs.
Mary Whitford in the business part of
the city. He followed them until with
in 100 feet of their home, when he ran
up behind them to within ten feet and
emptied the contents of one revolver at
them both. He then drew the other
weapon and fired again at Mrs. Whit
ford. After firing the last shot he re-
marked, 81 guess I've fixed both OF
you, " and emptied the other four cham
bers into his body near the heart.
Meanwhile a crowd gathered in the
vicinity of the tragedy, but no one dared
to come near him. Straight realized
that they were afraid of him, and shout
ed that he would not hurt any one, as
he had killed those he was after. Neigh
bors then removed all parties to the
house. Mrs. Straight was shot three
times in the back, the balls lodging in
the abdominal cavity and the base of
the lungs. She died at O'Clock this
morning. Mrs. Whitford was shot twice,
one ball piercing the arm and lodging in
the posterior side of the thorax and the
other SCATTERING the spinal column near
its base. She is still alive, but is sink
ing rapidly. The murderer was removed
to the Ogden hospital, and regained con-
seriousness for several hours. He graph
ically described the murder to the Dis
trict Attorney. He is now unconscious,
and death is but question of few
hours. The parties are all well known,
respectable citizens of EImira, and the
tragedy has created great excitement.

The California Mines.

SAN FRANCISCO, November 19.-The
State Mineralogist's report shows that
during 1898 California more than doubled
the silver output of the previous year,
producing $637, 155 as against 1862, 800.
The increase was almost entirely due to
san Bernardino county, the ores OF the
Calico mine being worked more cheaply
than any other silver ore on the Coast.
The gold output was practically the same
in both years. This year forty hydraulic
mines, which have been unproductiye
for years, are again being operated. The
State Mineralogist believes this will in
crease the gold output from $l2,000,0OO
to $40 1000, O00, and that it will be main
tanned at the larger figure for some years.

Matter for the Courts.

WAsHINGToN, November l9.-The In
dian Office is doing nothing in the mat
ter of kilograms received from the Indian
agent at Muskogee, l. T., regarding the
Cook gang Of desperadoes. He has been
informed that the troops asked for can
not under the law be sent into the In
dian Territory. 1t is stated at the In
dian Office that the whole affair is one
with which the agent need not concern
himself as it is under the jurisdiction Of
the courts. The Indian office has given
him permission to use the Indian police
in cooperation with the United States
Marshals, but further than this he has
no jurisdiction.

An Italian Caught in the Act of Chokin e
One of Denver's Fallen Women.
DENVER, November 20.-H. Meller, an
Italian, entered the house of Marie
Ventres at 1880 Twentieth street, near
Market, about midnight last night, and
soon became engaged in a quarrel with
the woman, and without warning seized
her by the throat. He pressed his
thumbs tightly upon her wlndpipe, and
squeezed so hard that the woman was
not able to utter sound. She mag
ined that the man engaged in choking
her was the one who had strangled Lena
Taper, Marie COntassoit and Xxi
Ayama. She is a woman OF great phys
zeal strength, and managed to release
herself. She called for help, and when
an officer arrived Meller was trying TO
cut her throat with razor. Chief Of
Police Armstrong and the police gener-
ally think that Meller is nothing more
than an ill-tempered Italian. The de-
tectives are not enthusiastic in the idea
that their prisoner is the man who stran-
gled three women recently. This at
tempted murder has added to the terror
and excitement of the women in that
district of the town.

Men Starving and Dying From sickness
Brought on by Exposure.
MEMPHIS, November 20.-Not long ago
there was published in many OF the
newspapers of the country what pur-
ported to be a dispatch from Colon,
Central America, on the Panama canal,
and stated there was a great demand for
labor. To-day the Commercial-Appeal
received the following appeal from the
roadmaster of the railway at Colon:
"In my position with the railroad
here | see a great deal of the floating
population OF the Isthmus There are
to-day on the Isthmus crowds OF we'll
educated, good-intentioned machinists,
carpenters, draugh.sman-in fact men
of every trade and professionalism are
starving and suffering from sickness
brought on by exposure to the wet season
and neglect, and every boat brings more.
There is not work for any OF them.
Since the revival of the work on the ca
nal the canal company has not hired one
single man, except negro laborers, at 90
to 20 cents day and paid in Columbian
silver. This equals p cents in American
money day. There are men here starry
ing to death, who gave up positions at
home to come here"

Trying to Recover.

CHICAGO, November 49, =" Lucky"
Baldwin has filed a bill in the Circuit
Court to prevent the enforcement of a
Judgment of $3,428, recovered against
him by John McClelland, in which gar
nishment proceedings have been taken
against the Washington Park Club.

notice was served on him. McCleland
is horse trainer, and was at one time
in the employ Of Baldwin. The suit was
brought for salary for services and reim-
bursement for moneys paid out for the
horse owner.

TACOMA, November 10. - The 200
pounds of Hong Kong opium that came
over on the steamship Sikh is being de-
tanned by the custom-house authorities
and will doubtless be seized. The opium
was consigned to a Portland Chinese
firm, and, duty paid, is worth about
$500. Under the commercial treaty
entered into between the United States
and China, and known as the treaty OF
1881, there is very clear and explicit
ING opium into this country under any
circumstances. Special Treasury Agent
Leslie Cullom says that by reason of
this clause the drug cannot be dis
charged here. Deputy Collector Dorsey
has detained the opium, and will pre-
sent the case to Collector Saunders for
his action. The seizure, however, is
practically made.
