SMALLPOX AT wAsHINGToS.
Three of the Victims Employees of th
Interior Dennrtment.


Interior Department.
WASHINGTON, Oct. 25.-The health
authorities are using the greatest endeav-
ors to prevent an epidemic of smallpox
It's prevalence has caused considerable
alarm, and it is estimated that over 500
people were vaccInated yesterday.
An agent of the Health Department
visited the Interior Department., and at
his request Secretary Smith issued an
order requiring all employees to be vacci-
mated.
The force at the department was in a
panic to-day, owing to the fact that three
smallpox victims are employed in the
Interior Department.
The latest victim of the contagion is
Judge Marion Rucker of South Carolina.
an Assistant Attorney General for the
Interior Department, who appears to
have well developed case. He was re-
moved to the pest-house. The Judge
lived in boarding-house where thirty
persons resided. An investigation shows
that Judge Rucher became affected with
the contagion in his Office, where Mr..
Conlon, father of an infant who died with
that disease, is employed in an official ca

Interesting Point TO be Raised by Los
Angeles Republicans.
Los ANGELES, Oct. 25.-The Repub-
hcan City Convention was called to order
this morning and a Chairman elected.
After committees had been appointed
and the convention was in working or
der, it was discovered that in the purity
OF elections law there is clause invalidat-
ing all nominations where conventions
are held in direct communication with a
saloon; also, that q saloon was running
tuII blast adjoining the hall. The saloon
was hastily closed up and the convention
adjourned sine die.
1t was again called to order by the
Chairman OF the Central Committee and
all the work done over again.
AS the Democratic County and City
convention made nominations with
saloons running close at hand, the E0en-
a11g ELpTeSS interprets this action as
meaning that the Republicans intend to
raise the point that the Democratic nom
nations are void, and contests will be
raised over any Democrat elected to office.

FATAL EXPLOSION.

Steam-Pipe.

Six Men hlIIeu DY the bursting of q
Steam-Pipe.
BREsr (France), Oct. 25--An explosion
took place to-day on board the French
cruiser Arethuse while her engines were
being tested, preparatory to sailing for
the East in order to reinforce the French
squadron in Chinese waters, if such a
step should be necessary. Six men were
killed and twenty others were badly
scalded.
The first report of the disaster which
had reached the shore magnified it con-
siderably, and it was generally be-
heved one of the cruisers boilers had
burst. 1t is now believed, however, that
the explosion was due TO the bursting OF
steam-pipe.
The disaster caused great excitement
ashore and about the docks, and was IN
creased when it was discovered that ire
had broken out on board the cruiser.
The situation became such, however,

PORTLAND, Oct. PA clever swindle
has been exposed here by the arrest of A.
c. Danmeier on the charge of using the
mails for a fraudulent purpose. The base
of operations was at Palestine, a small
suburb of this city.
About month ago two alleged pre-
tentious concerns began receiving and
depositing mail there. One was "Kauer 81
Co., manufacturers agents for merchan
disc" at Denver, Col. and Portland, Or.
NJ. o. w. Kaner, who signed his name as
manager of the alleged concern, was the
the initial party to the swindling, the
finishing touches being put on by j. D.
Neaton who signed as an agent of the
Palestine Express Company" whose
alleged business was Expressing and
forwarding" and storage at lowest
rates."
Advertisements were inserted in the
want column of daily papers in different
western cities asking for agents to sell
stock OF drygoods, notions and crockery-
way on salary and commission. A young
man in San Francisco answered the adj
vertisement, and afterward brought the
mrtter to the attention of the postal au-
thorities. The plan of the swindle was
dlvulged in his correspondence with
kauer u Co., who reported that they
had a $4,000 stock of goods, which
was to be divided up into four
parts for the purpose OF stocking four
different stores in his city. The agent
was to get a salary of $50 per month and
l per cent. of the gross receips. The
goods were packed ready for shipment,
and each agent was 10 pay his share Of
the freight. The Palestine Express Com
pany at this juncture would notify the
agent that the goods were ready for ship
ment, but the charges, amounting to $50.
must be prepaid.
Danmeier is well known here. A few
years ago he drove a First-street horse
car. He has not yet been able to furnish
a bond of 5000 for his appearance before
the Federal Grand Jury.

night. a torchlight procession of Demo-
cratic clubs escorted Mr.. Crisp to the
Nendome, which was packed to overflow
ing, and hundreds were turned away.
Mr.. Crisp spoke for over two hours to
an intensely interested audience, which
gave him the protoundest attention. He
said he had come to discuss some of the
things the Democrats had done, to men
ton some of the things they hoped to do,
and TO give some reasons why, in the ap-
preaching election, allegiance should be
given to the interests OF the Democratic
party, National and State. The Demo-
cratic party was responsible for Federal
legislation, and as one ofits representatives
he did not seek to avoid the responsibility.
He reviewed the acts of the Democratic
Congress, spoke of the disturbed cOndi-
ton OF the country, financially and in
dustrially, and referred to the panic, and
traced 1t back to its sources. In regard
TO the financial legislation, he discussed
tho action OF Congress in repeating the
purchase clause OF the Sherman Act, and
said that candOr compelled him to state
that the result was great disappoint-
ment to him. 81 have always believed"
