Farmer Dunn resulted in a complete
collapse of his open air entertainment
on the Bowery tonight. Mr.. Teal ex-
pected to storm the sacred precincts
of the bowery from Chatham square

He had arranged for $50 speakers to
address the voters of the east side
from eighteen trucks, but the rain
stopped the programme. Although
the outdoor meetings were failures the
principal meeting in the Windsor
theatre was very successful.
Chauncey NJ. Depew said he had
made a great number of speeches and
almost everywhere. but never before
on the Bowery. He said of Mr.. Hill
that he was one OF the best men in the
party and always displayed the most
ability when on the wrong side.

has been making love to Shepherd,
Fairchild, Gilroy and others, but they
have all gone away from him and now
he has turned to the sage of Gray

been before pursuing in public speeches.
No man who strives to connect politics
with religion is entitled to the respect
of American citizens. 1t is for the
best interest of the country to leave

SMALLPOX AT THE CAPITAL
Great Efforts Being Made to Pre-
vent Its SDread.

vent It's Snread.
Washington, Oct. 25.-The health au-
liberties are using the greatest endeav-
ors to prevent the epidemic of small
pox- Its prevalence has caused con-
siderable alarm and it is estimated that
over 500 people were vaccinated today.
The agent of the health department Wis
Ited the interior department and at his
request Secretary Smith issued an or
der requiring all employees to be vacci-
mated. The force at the department.
was in a panic today, owing to the fact
that three smallpox victims are en-
ployed in the interior department.
An order has been issued by the in
terror department closing all the rooms
in which the persons afflicted with
smallpox worked, and all persons en-
gagged in the rooms have been given
leave of absence and orders to stay
away from the department..
The latest victim of the contag ion is
John Marion Rucker, of South Carroll
ma, an assistant encouragement for
the interior department, which appears
to have a well-deveFoped case. He was
removed to the pest house.
The judge lived in a boarding house
where thirty persons resided. An in
vestig'ation shows that Judge Rucker
became affected with the conta gion at
his office, where Mr.. Con'ton, father of
an infant who died with that disease, is
employed in an official capacity.

DENVER DRUGGISTS ASSIGN.

Denver, Oct. 25.-J. ]. Reithmann and
J. J. Reitmann e. Co, wholesale drug
gists, made assignments this afternoon
to ]. B. Reithmann, jr., and Fred c.
Killiam for the benefit of creditors.
The assignment grew out of the at
tachment made in the United States cir
cult court on 400 acres of land in Arap-
ahoe county to satisfy a judgment of
$40 900 held by the National Bank of
Commerce, of Kansas City.
Later suit against j. J. Reithmann
for S14S,500 was filed in the district court
by j. F. Suydam.
The combined properties of J. J.. Reith-
mann and J. ]. Reitnmann & Co., are
said to amount to over $1,000, 900, while
the debts are less than half this amount
Mr. Reithmann's attorneys say that
the whole matter will soon be settled,
and that the assignees will be in charge
but a short time.

The SANTA Fe Trouble.

Topeka, Oct. ga very important
action was taken during the night in
connection with the Santa Fe situation.
acting for the protective reorganiza-
ton committee, went before Judge G.
G.. Foster, of the United States district
court, and asked for an order restrain
ig the stockholders from electing di-
rectors today, until the courts should
decide whether the cumulative plan of
voting could be exercised.
Judge Foster granted temporary
restraining order conditionally; that
is, he said the meeting could proceed
if the cumulative plan of voting were
exercised, otherwise not; and in this
event he would set the hearing on the
temporary restraining order for Mon
day, October 29.
AT 10 O'Clock the room of General
Manager Frey, in the Santa Fe gen.
eral office building was packed with
representatives of the opposing inter
ests. Secretary Wilder read the call
and Immediately Mr.. Robinson an
nounced as the committee TO take down
the proxies and see vino was entitled to
vote Charles Bloodsmith, James Walk
er, jr., and George w. Porter. Newman
Erb strongly objected because the pro
teC'tive committee was not represented
and moved that Henry Woolman, of
Kansas City, be added. The motion fin
ally carried and an adjournment was
taken until II O'Clock.
There will be no election of directors
today. This is settled, because the di-
rectors' committee has decided to re-
sist the cumulative plan of voting, pro
posed by the protectives. who are in
the minority and have no hope for a
representative on the board except I'M
der the system in question. The session
of stockholders this afternoon will
merely elect a chairman of the meeting
who. it is agreed, will 'be Thomas A.
Osborn, ex-governor.
This afternoon the Santa F'e meeting
elected Thomas A. Osborn chairman,
and adjourned to 10 o'clock, Thursday,

a resolution that the Federal court be
asked to appoint committee to inves-
tigate the company's affairs and re-
port to the stockholders within thirty
days.
The resolution was shut out by the

and the largest individual stakeholder,
said the present board would concede
nothing to the protective committee.
This injunction he said, lis un-
doubtedly sprung to compel us to give
representation on the board to them,
but we will not do it. We viii not
compromise or make any concession
to them.'
BY far the most important point
from a railroad standpoint that has
developed so far is that the general
committee if it wins this fight, will
Make b. F. Cheney, jr., chairman of
the board. This is the highest execu-
tive position on a railway. and is al
ways held by men of high financial
standing. Cornelius Vanderbilt is
chairman of the New York Central
board-an office higher than the presi-
dency held by Chauncey NJ. Depew.

The Fate That is in Store For Bill
Cool1-More Towns Looted in the
Indian Territory.

Fort Smith, Ark, Oct PA report has
reached this city to the effect that the
little town of Gibson has been rob
bed in pretty much the same fashion as
the Watoba holdup, the express office and
several stores being looted.
The town is six miles south of Wagner
on the Missouri Kansas & Texas rail-
road, and as there is no telegraph office
there particulars of the robbery have not
been received here. 1t is said that six
men took part in the hold-up.
Marshal Grump received telegram
yesterday from Deputy Lambton, who had
gone in pursuit of the Cook gang say
ing that a fight between the bandits and
officers was expected at any time.
The latest robbery reported here up to
this morning was that of a preacher at
1llinoise station by two men. 1t is not
known how much was secured.
The train from Wagner. which arrived
at l o'clock this morning, was guarded by
force of % men under the leadership of
Sheriff Brown. The same posse guarded
the west bound train leaving here few
hours later and were reinforced by %
others at Kennetia, as the railroad people
We're expecting a hold-up at Illinois sta
ton.
The Cook rang is supposed to be in that
vicinity, as ten men were seen at the
water tank when the eastbound train
came through. Conductor Conkling was

and also at Illinois, but he came through
all right. He reports the whole country

EFFECTED A LANDING.
FIELD Marshal Oyama Successful In
His Mission.

Yokohama. Oct 25.-It IS reasserted
hat the army corps under Field Mar
shal Count Oyama, formerly minister
OF war, has effected handing at SEEK
!osso near Port Arthur. 1t is also
again asserted that the japanese army,
under Field Marshal Yanagata, has
successfully crossed the Yalu river and
entered Manchurda.
It was announced on September 26
that Field Marshal Count OyaLna sailed
from Hiroshima with a second Japan
csc SQUADRON. Since then IT has been
repeatedly asserted that the japanese
had effected a landing near Port Ar
thur and it has been stated that the
report was current that this important
place had been captured by the Japan
ese.
On the other hand the Japanese have
several times been reported as having
crossed the Yalu river, and also as
having been repulsed. For instance,
on October Is Shanghai dispatch stat
ed that Field Marshal Oyama had
crossed the Yalu river, and the last
time he was reported repulsed was on
October %, when it was asserted that
both sides lost 1900 men in an engag e-
ment which resulted in the Japanese
being driven southwark. If the Japan
csc had been so uniformly successful in
their operations against the Chinese, il
is difficult to understand how they have
so many OF their soldiers wounded and
already sent to the rear. A dispatch
from Chemulpo, October %, announces
that 1,S00 Japanese had arrived there
and asserted that there was a, large
number II wounded Japanese at Sc
oul 1t also stated that 2100 wounded
japanese soldiers had already been
sent back 10 that country. Surprising
that large number to mean another
1000 wounded, this would show the
wherea bouts of about 5000 wounded
that are already known salt Chemulpo,
and ii is safe to assume that this num-
Der does not fnclude those engaged in
the recent fights said to have occurred

A GREAT WE'LL.
IFrom Chambers Journal.1


At Bourne. in Lincolnshire. at depth
of sixty-six feet. water impregnated with
iron was encountered, but this chalybeate
liquid was excluded as the tubes were
carried deeper. Some twelve feet lower
the main spring was tapped, and the
water rose very slowly up the tube, and
1t was twenty-four hours before the
water oyerf1owed. AS the depth increased
so did the volume of the ascending cur
rent: and by the time the well had
reached the depth of 100 feet, the flow
was 1900 gallons per minute, or 1,S72, 900
gallons per day.
Although this was an enormous flow
yet the engineers thought that by going
a little deeper, still larger supply would
be available. Numerous cases are on
record where, under similar circum-
stances, the deepening of the well has re-
suited in complete failure 1t will be
readily understood that in such instances
increased boring has carried the well
through the non-porouS rock upon which
the water-bearing layer rested. thus al
lowing the water to escape. With the
Bourne we'll however, the deepening of
the bore hole had the desired effect for

creased to 1880 gallons per minute. or
no less than 2.592.000 gallons per day.

TRANSPORTATION OF GOLD.

Washington. Oct. 25.-A statement
prepared at the treasury department
shows that during the period between
March. 1894, and October 1, 1894 the
amount of gold transported between
sub-treasuries, minis or banks at gov
eminent expense. in consequence of ex-
Iportations of gold, was 1901, 500. The
cost of the passage for this amount was
S95, $50. The aggregate shipments be-
tween the more important points are
given as follows:

Commissioner Senner refused to permit
the girl to continue her journey, and
ordered her back to Germany. The
commissioner action was based solely
on the condition of the girl.
Mrs. Mueller hurried to Chicago and
procured ample bonds to guarantee that
her sister would never become a public
charge. This did not satisfy the COM
missioner. and the latter refused to
change his ruling. There is no law that
applies to the case except the statute
excluding females of immoral charac-
ter and the girls friends offered testi-
mony to prove that previous to her mis-
fortune her character was of the best.
The offered testimony was rejected and
the friends determined to appeal to
Secretary Carlisle.
The petition has been signed by
numerous friends of the Mueller family,
and also bears the signatures of Mayor
Hopkins, Collector NJ. J. Russell, Col
hector Mize and Postmaster Hesing.
The position of the commissioner is
that no bond can be given that will
guarantee that the child still unborn
will never become a public charge. The
girls friends have ample means and
are people of the best character.

IN FULL SWING.
Campaign Orators of Both Parties
Are Making Matters Lively i'm
New York.

New York Oct. 25.-The campaign ora
tors Of both parties are now under full
swing and the general political situation
all over the state is indicative of the
herce fight that will be fought on cleo
ton day. The most prominent men
Republicans and Democrats alike-have
been drafted into service and the head
quarters of both forces were never so
alive with bustling politicians as the
past two days.
The declination of Congressman Dun
ply, of the nomination os New York
Democracy for the Eighth district was
received today, leaving ]. J. Walsh, the
Iammany nominee, clsa- field The
Eighth district was one of those which
few days ago was thought might pos
sioly be sacrificed by Tammany in the
interest of harmony.
Following this Official announcement
comes the resignation of a number of
members Of the New York state Democ-
racy organization in the Twenty-fourth
assembly district, the deserters from
Grace's organization at the same time
announcing their intention of supporting
the entire Democratic ticket. At both
headquarters there was the usual round
up of official statements with none that
might materially affect the situation
either one way or the other.

London, Oct. 25.-A dispatch from
Toxic dated today states that Field
Marshal Count Yamagata has tele-
graphed to the war office that de-
tachment of 1000 japanese infantry
crossed the Yalu river on Wednesday
morning, and attacked the enemy.
The Chinese force consisted of 500
cavalry and 100 infantry with two guns
The enemy fed.
The japanese captured a Chinese
fort, two guns and many rifles. The
Chinese loss was twenty killed ana
wounded. The Japanese sustained no
loss. The japanese advance columns
are marching on Lishiyen.
A dispatch dated Wi Ju. October "a,
apparently delayed in transmission,
was received this evening, giving the
details of the above fight. 1t says that
the Japanese were ferried over the
Yalu river at Sukochin at day break.
Chinese earth works had been
thrown up to oppose the landing OF
the japanese force, but a slight devia-
non enabled the Japanese force 10
cross the river and land without OPP
position.
The Chinese fed after the first few
rounds were fired at them.
The japanese captured the works
with a rush.
The Chinese fed to batteries that
had been constructed lower down the
river, throwing away their arms in
their flight. These were found to
be antiquated muskets. The ad-
vanced detachment now holds the
Sulcochin ferry to guard the passage OF
the Japanese main body, the advances
pe which will commence at dawn TO-
morrow Thursday. The japanese en-
gineers have PORTIONS thrown across
the river in readiness for the army ro
pass over.
The Chinese are still in force in the
batteries opposite Wi Ju. Their strength
has not materially increased during THE
past week The main attack upon the
Chinese position will not occur before
Sunday.

WILD BILL.
Running Short of Epigrams, He
Coins ~ New One.

SHUT VI mt
Coins a. New One.
Buffalo, Oct Ex-Governor Mckinley
found a rather extensive programme
prepared for him on his arrival here.
Three meetings had been arranged for.
as large an audience was assembled as
the hall would contain. Mckinley is
an adept at epigrams. He presented a
new one today. He opened his address
by saying: eve are engaged this year
in a movement to keep our business at
home. We have discovered that if we
do not keep our business it would not
keep u.s."
The cleverness of the expression
struck the audience forcibly and it re-
sponded with a burst of applause. All
three of the assembled crowds were
attentive, appreciative and demonstra-
tive. In the morning the governor
starts out to make nine scheduled
speeches and possibly some not sched-
uled, the principal points touched be-
ing Rochester, Auburn, Utica and
Syracuse. Contrary to unofficial an
nouncements, he will not speak in New
York, no arrangements for this having
been made by the state committee.

SOCIETY SHAKEN UP.
The Case of Stiles VS.. stiles Promises
TO Create Big Sensation.

Chicago. Oct. 25-The divorce case of
Everett d. Stiles against Lillian Brown
Stiles, in which Herbert P. Crane, son of
the millionaire elevator man, is named
as correspondent, was opened today by
Judge Ewing.
The charge made by Mr.. Stiles in his
bill, the counter-charges of Mrs. Stiles
in her cross-bill, and the testimony today
promises sensational developments.
Mr.. Stiles testifies that during a visit
to Cranes summer house at Lake Cen
eva, Wis, he detected Crane coming out
of the room occupied by Mrs. Stiles. He
went in and found his wife in tears and
told her she must not allow the visits
of Mr.. Crane to continue.
Later, he averred his wife received love
letters from Mr.. Crane, and when he re-
monstrated she became hysterical and
told him to go away for two weeks
and give her time to collect her
thoughts. He went, as she requested,
and on his return found a man in his
house whom he thought had no business
there, and he and his wife separated.
The case is expected to last for ten
days. All parties to the suit are Of high
social standing.

JOHN HOPKINS DIsGRACED
Two Brutal Encounters Betweer
Freshmen and Juniors.

Baltimore, Oct. 25.-The Johns Hop
lxins juniors and freshmen had two en-
counters today, and both sides are
claiming victory. Meanwhile the uni
yersity authorities and the police are
irving to find who were in the tight
and who got hurt. The trouble arose
over proclamation issued by the Ju-
niors. and which was posted early this
morning on telegraph poles and the
fences in the university neighborhood.
By this edict the freshmen We're for
hidden to carry canes, to smoke, to
enter the gymnasium, and were or
dered to make obeisance to the upper
classmen. The phrase of the ten COM
mandments was used in framing the
edict and at the end epithets were
hurled at individual freshmen.
The freshmen attempted to tear down
one of these posters. The juniors tried
to prevent them, and in the scuffie
that ensued black eyes were exchanged
The freshmen outnumbered their OPP
ponents. A stop was put to hostilities,
but they soon began again.
Policemen and several janitors were
on watch the remainder of the day to
prevent any further disturbance.

TWELVE BURIED ALIVE.
Another Horrible Accident on the
MenOminee Range

1ronwood, Mich, Oct. 25.-What may be
the worst accident in the history of the
Menominee range, occurred on the fourth
level or shaft No. ], at the Peabic mine
this afternoon. One man is known to
have been killed, and eleven others are
entombed and their fate will not be
known for eighteen hours, as it will take
that length of time for as large a force
row shaft to clear away the rubbish.
The accident was caused by the sandstone
Gaping which overhung the room coming
away with sufficient force to crush the
ttnberS without any warning.
The settling commenced in an old room
above the third level about 100 feet in
height In an interview this evening
Superintendent Brown expressed himself
as being confident that all the entombed
men would be taken out alive. This will
depend very much on whether the air is
them alive. All the men have families

Japanese officers Who Were Much
Too Susceptible.

Vancouver, 3. c., Oct. 25.-Among
the advices by the Empress of Japan-is
the news OF the arrest at Hiroshima of
female spy, who gives her name as
Otasa- She has been using her wiles
with effect among the Japanese Off
GERS, and had several Of them at her
beck and call, with the result that she
was piling up a magnificent load of in
formation for the willy old Ii Hung
Chang, one of whose extensive house
hold it appears she was. She is beau
'iful and accomplished in seductive
arts and as she speaks Japanese fluent
ly, was admirably fitted for the work
TO which she was assigned. Her accent
betrays her Chinese birth.
The officers who had been paying for
her smiles with military secrets will
pay the penalty of their rashness.
