Washington, May 16.-Hon. John NJ
Burke, prominent mine owner Of the
Occur d'Alene region, and Democratic
candidate for governor of Idaho at the
last election. has been missing for
more than a month.
Governor Burke. as he was gener-
ally called. came here at the begin
ming of this Congress as a representa-
tive of the lead ore interests. to have
the duty on that product retained. He
spent the winter here. and at his
former home in Virginia. About the
middle of last March, he left here to
attend the silver convention at Cincin-
natl, intending, also. to visit Milwau-
kee. where he had partners in his min
ing interests. He announced to Sena-
tor Dubois and other friends here that
he would return about April l.
1t is known that he did attend the
silver convention at Cincinnati. and
that from there he went to Milwaukee.
He was there with his friends for a
few days, changed his mind about re-
/ turning here, procured a thousand
mile ticket, and stated mis- intention Of
returning to Idaho. From that mo-
ment he dropped out of sight
Governor Burke was a shrewd, active
man Of business. and as ne usually
carried considerable money about him,
| foul play is feared.

TEMPTATIONS
Which Beset the Criminal Upon Re-
ginning His Liberty.

In the last report of the prison COM
missioners a very experienced Pro-.
testant chaplain testifies: The major
Iity of habitual criminals make excel
lent prisoners 1t is only when restored
to liberty that they fall" 1t would be
little short of q miracle if they did not.
In spite of the efforts Of philanthro-
pists, the difficulties in the way Of their
finding honest employment are, natur-
ally enough, immense. On the other
hand, the temptations to relapse, from
force of old habit and from the in
lauence of former associates, is such as
might we'll overmaster a stronger power
of volition than that which they can,
as a rule, oppose to 1t.
1 remember, while visiting some years
ago the great prison at Dartmoor, how
much 1 was impressed by what the eX-
cellent Catholic chaplain-now dead

| the matter. He observed: 1T is ~
| happiness for me when any of theseI
poor fellows die here; they make a
good end. If they went back TO the
world they would, almost for certain,
! live badly and die badly" 1 add that
| the perpetual seclusion of nabitual Of

enormous sums for police to catch
men and women perfectly we'll known

NICARAGUAN CANAL.
Plan For Its Completion BY n New
System.

Plan For Its Completion BY New
System.
Washington, May ia plan for the
completion of the Nicaragua canal by
this government, by new system of
financiering. was introduced in the
House today by the author, Repre-
sentative Bryan, of Nebraska. While
some features of Senator Morgan
product are repealed, a great innova-
ton is brought forward by provisions
intended to increase the circulating
medium of the country by paying for
the stock of the canal company by an
issue of legal tender notes, modelled
after the greenbacks of 1862.
The plan is designed so as to meet
favor from the anti-bond men. Accord
ing to the BILL the stock of the canal
company is to consist of 100000
shares Of 500 each, for which legal
United States notes, identical in char
acter with those issued under the act
Of Feb. %, 1852, are to be issued, re-
deemable to the same extent and in
the same manner as those of 1862.
The secretary of the treasury is to
purchase 10000, 900 of the stock of the
company, and pay for it at par by the
issue of the notes described, which are
to be kept in circulation as a part of
the currency OF the country. SIX mill
lion of the capital stock is to be is
sued to the government of Nicaragua,
$500, 900 to Costa Rica, and the remain
ing S23, 500, 900 is to be held in the treas
ury until the government decides
whether to purchase it or permit it
to be sold by subscription, except an
amount not to. exceed $7OO0,OC0 to be
used by the company in taking up it's
outstanding stock Provision is made
] far 10 10 of
working capital and the issue of the
remainder in quarterly installments as
may be necessary to carry on the work
of construction.

THE IBEX.
olins' Fly to the Perpendicular

Surface.
Taking out my glass, I made out an
ibex climbing the cliff and another on
the face Of a rock, at the base of which
the dogs were vehemently baying it.
1t was only a female, and G.. who got
UP to it first, declined to shoot, but
climbed 1000 feet higher in the vain
nope of catching sight of the other,
which was young male. When I ap-
preached the dogs the goat had placed
herself where it seemed impossible for
anything but a fly to cling, and where
she might have safely remained, as 1
had no desire TO annex this poor little
sad-colored desert nanny. 1 tried 10

but getting a glimpse Of me. she
sprang down, and the dogs, after
short course of 200 yards, caught her,
strange to say, with very little injury
to skin OF bone. She was heavy in kid,
or she would have quickly shown them
her heels.
Our Bedawi was close up, and in a
trice had tied her legs, while 1 fastened
a handkerchief over her eyes to prevent
her struggling. The females of this
species are much smaller than rams.
and we had no difficulty in carrying
our prisoner down the valley to the
spot where we proposed to camp. We
proposed to sit upon her fate. L should
have liked to carry live female Of the
species as an offering to the Geological
society On the other hand, the
creature would have to spend ten days
in a bag on the back of a camel an
ordeal which might be attended with
inconvenience to Us.and certainly would
be, under the circumstances, to the
lady in question.
Our Luxor attendant. who had not
hitherto come out as a. linguist, re-
marked: Next week him make little
boy" That settled the point. We
elected to give her her liberty, but not
without protests from the Arabs, the
lawful prey of whose bow and spear
she was and who strongly objected to
allowing good meat to run away. We
waited till it was too dark for the
dogs to follow her, and then released
| her. She skipped off into the darkness
without a sign of hurt-Nineteenth

THE HEATHENs MAY LAND.
Question Affecting the Entry of
Forty Cinnamon.


Washington. May 16.-Assistant Secre-
tary Hamlin has sent a telegram to the
collector of customs at San Francisco,
stating the department is advised that
forty Chinese merchants are now on a
vessel at the port of San Francisco and
thirty-six can establish their character
as merchants formerly resident in this
country, who departed prior to Novem-
Der last. with the intention of return
ing. The collector is directed to make
careful examination, and, if satisfied of
their identity, he is given permission to
land them, they to remain in the collec-
tors custody until Judge Morrow's de-
cision is passed upon by the court of ap-
peal, probably on Monday next Be-
fore landing, the steamship is to be re-
quired to give a written stipulation for
payment of expenses during the deten-
ton of the Chinese and also for their re-
turn to China if the decision of Judge
Morrow be sustained. The collector Is
also informed the attorney-ge holds
that the act approved November 8 last
does not apply to Chinese merchants and
men in business here at that date The
opinion of Judge Morrow referred to
holds, in effect, that the act of November
8 last excludes Chinese merchants who
left the country prior to November, as
we'll as those who left since that date.
This opinion is in direct conflict with
the opinion of the encouragement pro-
mulgated today.

CHICAGO GENERAL MARKET.

Chicago, May 16-In wheat there was
rather free selling at the start Favor
able crop news, with the exception of
Nebraska and California, and weak, de-
pressing cables were the two principal
factors in increasing the selling pressure.

Merciless Physician.
One night a clubman, who may be
named Goodman without missing his ma
ture very much, was on his way to
furnished room home on the north side
when a curious series of adventures was
encountered. Crossing the Clark street
bridge somewhere about midnight, he no.
ticed a man ahead of him standing and
leaning over the rail. Behind him came
another man, walking his own gait, and
apparently in no hurry to reach his desti-
nation. Goodman thought of footpads
but as he never had been held up he tried
to forget the danger.
But it would not be forgotten. The

New York, May 16.-The share Specu-
lation today was characterized by con-
siderable activity, but the increase in
the volume of business was due to the
Inauguration of a selling movement
which included Sugar, st. Paul, Burling-
ton and Chicago Gas and, in lesser de-
gree, other active shares. The pressure
TO sell was most pronounced in Sugar.
There is a growing belief that the REIN
ing sugar interests will not receive the
consideration of which they have claimed
to be assured in the tariff bill, if it
should reach general passage. The situa-
ton in Washington is becoming more IN
settled, and the outlook is not so clear
as it was a few weeks back for the
Sugar people. The shares of the Sugar
Trust were, however. strongly supported
when attacked today; after the selling
movement started at the opening of bust
ness had spent itself, good buyers were
not found wanting, whose purchases
caused recovery of the early loss and
even sent the prices temporarily above
the opening figure. The early decline was
21s per cent, the subsequent appreciation
rs, then followed a reaction of is, and
a final rally of 4, making the decline
on the cay of g. Sugar preferred lost L.
There was quite heavy sales of Burling-
ton & Quincy in the first hour, despite
the fact that it was generally admitted
that the regular dividend would be de-
clared, and a decline of Is was effected.
st. Paul was even heavier than its sis
ter stock, and there were evidences of
liquidation of the shares held by a bull
pool. which hoped to find a market on
the strength of which it was hoped the
Burlington dividend would impart to the
dealings in the granger group. These eX-
pectations were not fulfilled, and the
price of st. Paul moved down on the
large offerings and made IL decline, with
only 4 recovery at the close Rock Is
land declined q and Northwestern stands
unchanged compared with yesterday.
Chicago Gas was sold down IA per cent.
during the morning. rallied 3 in the after
noon and reacted IS, closing l per cent.
on the day.
A break of 2I5 was made in National
Lead On sales believed to be for the &C
count of insiders, and the stock closed
within Is of the lowest point touched.
The general market was weak through
out the day and closed heavy with prices

Exceptions were Pacific Mail, New York

DUBOIS Reads the Riot Act to the
FiIibusterers.
Washington. May Ex-senator Allison
presided over conference of Republican
senators at the capital today, about two
thirds of the membership being present.
1t was a continuation of the discussion
which occurred at Senator Shermans
house on Monday night.
Senator Dubois announced his inten-
ton of publicly declaring in favor of
speedy action, and when several senators
took issue with him, he said his judgment
relative to the effect of the silver repeal
was as good as theirs last fall and he in
tended to follow it.
The conference broke UP without any
action being agreed upon, but those sena-
tors who believe in early action seemed
to be in such a. large majority that they
felt the policy would now be to consider
the bill with a view of engaging in only
| legitimate discussion of the various
! schedules.
Senator Chandler advanced the sugges-
| ton that the debate would consume from
thirty to sixty days on whatever lines it
might be conducted, and said that as that
was the case, there was no necessity for
Iresolving upon any particular course at
! present He also urged that there was
no question of f1libustering for the Re
! publican conference to consider, there
were no senators who desired to engage in

The verdict is guilty, and the penalty is
removal from Office. But the commission
ers object to being removed. and the pros
poets are bright for a bigger turmoil than
resulted from the fire and police board

fTonted by the militia.

So the governor wants the penitentiary
commissioners to remove the warden, to
make room for the man who will do his
bidding. The commissioners refused to
remove the warden and the next move
was to prefer charges against them with
the result stated.
Commissioner Chamberlain is Popu-
