Must he IDemented.

ST. PAUL, Aug. "A. For some time
past complaints have been made to the
police regarding the strange behavior of
man who frequented a vacant house
ON Selby avenue. 1t was claimed that
he was In the habit Of exposing his per-
son to women passing along the street,
and TO those living in the immediate
vicinity. Until now no clue to the
mans identity could be secured, al
though detectives had been placed to
watch the premises He 10 said to be q
well known minister Of the gospel and
lives ON Ashland avenue with his wife
and family. The only apology that can

A TERRIBLE FIGHT.

New York ON Her Recent Trip


New York ON Her Recent Trip.
When the big New York was cutting
her way through thick bank Of fog
Friday night few miles of the Hook,
Third Engineer Raum climbed down
into the stokeroom and told Chief Fire
man Hinz that he should get mp more
steam. The engineer spoke in such
commanding tone that the chief fireman
got nettled and replied that, in his
opinion, the steam pressure under which
the ship was then working was sufh-
cient for the required speed.
The engineer became enraged and
with curse grabbed q IL foot poker, the
handle Of which was protruding from
one of the immense furnaces, and was
about TO run the redhot iron through
the body of the chief fireman when
Fireman Wagner threw himself upon
him from behind and bore him down,
thus saving the life Of Hinz-
Then commenced terrible life and
death struggle between Wagner and the
engineer. The men were ON platform
from which the coal is shoveled into
the furnaces. Both men are Of powerful
build, with muscles of steel They
| gripped each other where they lay and
rolled over and over. Each tried hard
| to push or roll the other into one OF the
blazing furnaces About 40 coal pass
ers and firemen stood around, but could
| not interfere, as the chief fireman told
them to keep aloof Wagner had the
/ advantage of being naked to the waist
i while the engineers movements were
somewhat hampered by his close fit
ting uniform.
Wagner finally managed to get holt
Of his adversary's throat, and he tight
ened his grip until the engineers eye
bulged from their sockets. Then he le
him GO Raum was almost dead. A
bucketful of water was dashed into hi
! face. and he revived sufficiently to drae
himself to the elevator and be hoistet

COLGATE'S REMAINS FOUND.
All That Was Left of the Deserted
Cook Was Thigh Bone and One
Leg-Identified BY Objects Lying.
Around.

Missoula, Mont, Sept. 25.-The Mis-
soulian tomorrow morning will contain
"a sensat ional story of the recovery and
burial of George Colgate, the deserted
cook of the notorious hunting party
headed by William Z. Carlin, son of
General Carlin, late commander of the
of Columbia, U. S. A. The
discovery was made about Aug. % by
Lieutenant Elliott, eight miles below
the spot where the desertion occurred
on the Clearwater river. All that re-
manned of Colgate's body was a thigh
bone and one leg, and these We're man
gled and gnawed by wild beasts in
Testing that region. 1t is presumed the
balance of the remains were carried
away by animals into the mountain
businesses, or washed away by the
waters of the Clearwater. At the
same spot was also found a watch, two
boxes, fishing line and other articles,
identified as Colgate's property. The
remains were inferred at Lower Hot
Springs, on the north fork of the mid
die fork of Clearwater.
Lieutenant Elliott was sent out on
this mission by the present commander
of the department of the Columbia, to
which official he will make a full re-
port, there being many points tending
to prove that Colgate's desertion by the
Carlin party was cowardly in the eX

Provisions of the Tariff Law.

Washington, Sept. 25. = Besides the

VIII lapse entirely January L next, the
United States had entered into nine 9TH
er similar arrangements with other ma
tons under the authority conferred by
the Mckinley act The arrangements
are with Spain and Cuba and Porto Ri
co, with the Dominican republics, with
Guatemala. with Germany, Nicaragua
Honduras, Austro-Hungary, Salvador
and Great Britain, the last-named III
the British colonies of Trinidad, Barba-
does, the leeward islands, Neves, Do
minica, the windward islands, British
Guinea and Jamaica. The first of these
arrangements was made with Brazil
January %, 1892, and the last with Sal
vador, November 90 1892. It is eX-
pected that Brazils example will be
followed by all the other nations con-
Icerned, with the possible exception OF
Spain, who will proceed more leiSurely

Senior Mendonca said today: Bra
IZiTs action is a necessary sequence tc
the ena ctment Of the new tariff law by
the United States, and there is no sig
|nificance in the action of my country
beyond it's doing its part toward the
Termination Of a treaty which the tariff
law itself abrogates."
1.-THE original agreement gave either
country the privilege of renouncing the
treaty on July l or January 1, of any
given year by giving three months no.
tice. The tariff law served TO abrogate
the treaty without any notice to Brazil
but our government saw fit to give the
full notice and the reciprocity rates fol
American goods will remain until jan

Mr.. Mendonca was asked as to the
effect of the change of the treaty.
1.-The reciprocity treaty." he said
was chiefly beneficial to Brazil in sug-
ar. Prior to it, our sugar had only the
domestic market, but the reciprocity
treaty gave US the United States mar
ket, and as a result our sugar trade tC
this country has tripled in the last
three years. Our coffee trade, which
was another main item, will not be af-
fected by the change. On the part OF
the United States the treaty gave ad.
vantages to this country on maGSSac.

away from the sugar raisers of the
United States a bounty of ten million
dollars year and bestowed "a bounty
iof six million dollars a year on sugar
producers of the Hawaiian islands, Civ
ing them not only an advantage over
the sugar producers of the United
States, but of the whole world outside
lof these islands.
When we made the tariff law of 1890
and took away all the tariff from sugar
we gave to the cane producers and the
beet producers and the maple sugar
producers, a bounty equivalent to the
tariff, and we said in that law that the
boLrty should stand for fifteen years.
That is all wiped out by the law of
1884. What is there more sacred than
ia solerln contract made with our own
Icit'zene?''
Touching on the money question,
Governor Mckinley said:
Our money is all good, whether it
be silver, national bank notes or green
certificates; every dollar is good. To
get the money out among the people
is the serious problem today To do
this we must not only have something
to sell, but be able to find somebody to
buy. If we are compelled to keep it,
we suffer the loss in whole or in part
of what it costs us to produce it.
Banks are filed with money: money
was never more plentiful or less en-
ployed than it is now. 1t is because it
is not employed that we have the stag
nation in business which distresses the
country, and the reason it is not en-
ployed is because the invitation to
safe and profitable investment is not
presented. 1t is not the lack of money
nor the kind of money that is the
trouble; it is the lack of prosperous
manufacturing and the absence of con-
fidence in the party managing the gov
eminent, and we want faith in the flu
ture. When confidence and hope are
everywhere manifested, manufacturers
are busy and labor is employed, and
when both are engaged therein with a
fair profit and with fair wages, then
agriculture is prosperous and money
has free and healthy circulation"
