shape Of butterfy's body, ornamented
with imitation jewels, which likewise serve

A SUICIDE CLUB.

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, Juns 29.-For
some time the belief has existed that
suicide club had been organized in the
east end. A number of suicides have
occurred recently, the victims being
well known young men. In every in
stance prussic acid has been used.
Thursday it came to light that Frank
Crane had invited two of his
friends, named Harms and Sharp
to join the club, declaring that il.
already had a considerable mem
bership. Harms upnraided Crane, anc
made the matter public. When con.
fronted, Crane asserted that it was 9
joke, but the facts prove the existence
of the club. A rule of the uncanny
organization is. it is said, that the next
victim shall sit up with the body of the
suicide, and the first information that
the club existed was remark dropped
by young man over the corpse OF
Rodney Metzger, the last suicide, tc
the effect that he would be the next tc

OF Santo Disemb0wels Himself When Over
taken-A Revolving Suicide.
PARIS, June ga dispatch from
capital of the department
of Herault, announces an anarchist
tragedy growing out of the efforts of
the police to discover the accomplices
of Santo, the assassin of President Car
not. Cette and Montpelier, both in
the same department, have been men
toned as places where the murderer
stopped previous to making his way to
Lyons with the intention of taking the
life Of the chief magistrate of France.
The detectives who were at work in
Montpelier decided to surround and
search the house of man named
Granier, supposed to be an anarchist
and possible accomplice of Santo.
Granier, it appears, during last Sunday
afternoon previous to the attack upon
President Carnot, was heard to re-
mark: "By this time Carnot will havc
received his quietus."
When Graniers house was surrounds
ed, the detectives burst in the door and
summoned the anarchist TO surrender.
ing his supper, sprang to his feet, and,
for a moment, stood motionless with
surprise. Then with surprising swift
ness and before the detectives could
secure him, he picked up a long and
sharp knife and plunged 1t into his alb.
domen, and with few swift turns OF
the wrist disemboweled himself and
fell to the floor, where he died almost
immediately. ia

PARIS. June os.--M. Casimir-Pcrici
was elected president on the first bal

,45 votes cast. The national congress,
summoned to elect u president of the
French republic for n full term OF
seven years, was called to order
in the Palace of Versailles by
NJ. Challemel-L -Lacour at ITO p. m.
Wednesday. At least five minutes
elapsed after the formal call to order
before there was sufficient quiet to en-

When finally the assembly became

Scarcely had the president ceased
speaking, when Nj. Michelin, socialist
sprang to his feet and shouted: II de

A tumultuous scene ensued, the up
roar being sogreat that the president
could not make himself heard. The so
cialists seemed to be the stronger
lunged, and their cries of "Vive revo
luton" could be heard all over the hall

THE TARIFF.
ssnatsr Hiil's Flight Against the Incoml
Tax CauHas Unenainesa.

WASHINGTON, June 2s.--Thc tariff
bill is in crisis. Its fate is so deli.
cntely balanced between sudden death
ence that the Bourbon advocates of the
bill are alarmed.
1t is fact that the bill could not
have been passed Wednesday II it had
been brought to vote. That is the
Judgment of the republican leaders.
The democratic managers will not, of
course, admit this, but it is certain
they do regard what is here stated as q
fact, as dangerous possibility. Sena-
tors German, Jones, of Arkansas, Vest
and other democratic managers are
keenly alive to this danger. Their plan
is to prevent a vote until they have
closed a break in their ranks.
This situation is caused, in part, by
the terrific fight which Senator Hill is
making against the income tax, in part
by the growing uneasiness of the demo.
cratic senators from Alabama and
West Virginia over the threat that the
influence Of the administration will be
used in the house or in conference to
add coal and iron ore to the free list,
and even more by the doubtful attitude
of three populists, Senators Allen, Kyle
and Irby.
Senators Allen and Kyle have again
mounted the fence, which they have
straddled so successfully, to extort va
rious concessions, including free lum-
ber and free barb wire, from the demo-
Gratis.
They are both frightened and uncer-
tain. They have been deluged with
letters protesting against the sugar
schedule, and Senator Aliens mail, es-
pccially, has been filed with remon-
strances against the destruction of the
beet sugar industry. Each has also
been assailed with arguments and en-
treaties against free wool.
Even more serious to the mind Of
Senntor Allen is the threatened re-
newal of the charge made by Senator
Chandler that Senator Aliens support
of the bill would be the result of ''bar-
gains" in the schedules and in the free
list. 1t would be quite possible by an
alyzing the various amendments to the
tariff bill made by Senator Jones. of
Arkansas to show that they followed
threats made by Senator Allen or by
Senator Kyle, or by both, that they
would vote against the bill unless
every demand they made was granted.
An assault of this character, sup
ported by facts as set forth in the Con-
gressional Record, would place Sena-
tors Allen and Kyle in a position so
painful that in the face of the charges
against them they might not have the
hardihood to vote with the democrats.
The existing doubt as to the vote of
Senator Irby also worries Senators AL
len and Kyle. Senators Lindsay and
Jones were laboring with Senator Irby
a large part of the day, trying to eX-
tort some pledge that he would remain
in the democratic camp. The result of
their efforts was still in doubt Wednes-
day night.

And No More Perishable Freight Is Re-
ccived.
CHICAGO, June 29.-An order has beer
issued by the Illinois Central road tc
receive no more perishable or stoch
freight at Chicago, for other points.
and no dead freight except subject to
delay. The road will receive dead
freight from connecting lines coming
into Chicago, but no perishable freight.
The Chicago g. New Orleans limited
train, due to leave Cairo at 7:O5 Thurs.
day morning for Chicago, was detained
at that point by strikers. The police
refused to render assistance, and
the men who are still in the company's
employ coupled the train together and
started 70 pull out with it, but the
strikers uncoupled it and no further
attempt has SO far been made to move
the train. This is the Hrst serious de-
lay Illinois Central trains with sleep
ers attached have experienced.
