PERlLS or A TANK.
A Leak Generates Dangerous Gases Which
Are Apt to Explode.

"A
Are Apt to Explode.
The oil tank steamship Kasbek,
Captain Briggs, from BatOum for
London, arrived at Dartmouth for
coal, says the Westminster Gazette.
The captain reported that while at
Marcus Hook, Batoum, a leak was
discovered In one of the tanks, and,
as it was unsafe to use lamps, the
tanks being full of gas generated
from the remnants Of previous car
goes, Captain Briggs tried the exper'
iment of DETECTING solar light som
twenty. seven feet into the dark hold
This was successfully accomplished
By means of a number of highly pol
ished plates or mirrors, members or
the crew being 50 stationed as to re-
fleet the sun rays from the mirrors
into the hold. A flood Of light at
least ten feet square was thrown
across the leaking joint until it had
been thoroughly repaired. The work,
however, was attended with consider
able d niger to the men, who ran
great risk of being suffocated by the
dense fumes Of accumulated gas.
Ropes were tied around their bodies
and every few minutes they were
hauled to the deck for fresh air.
Some of them actually became intOx-
icated with the fumes and were
hauled up laughing and in some cases
crying. Captain Briggs, who went
down 70 superintend the work, re-
NAMED there too long and was drawn
up in an unconscious condition and
did not regain consciousness for sew
eral hours.

CZAR'S MALADY SERIOUS.
His Physician Gives q Detailed
statement of His Case.

StaCe InenC OF his Case.
BERLIN, Oct. SIN view of the re-
ports that the czar's condition has
changed for the worse, the corresponds
ent of the Associated Press in this
city has had another interview with
Prof. Leyden, the distinguished special
lst, who was recently in attendance
upon the emperor of Russia at Spala.
The professor, in substance, said:
1.-The car has a powerful constitu-
ton, and still weighs 200 pounds, though
he has lost much flesh since January,
and he should be able to make good
fight against disease"
Prof. Leyden, when asked if he
thought the car would recover, re.
piled:
with favorable climatic influence, as
at Corfu, or the island of Madeira, il the
weather at Corfu is not found to be
favorable, and, without unforeseen COM
plications, he may recover.
THE illness of the car is peculiar.
His principal trouble is granulated
contraction of the kidneys. in which
the kidneys become hard and change
tissue. besides being subject to atrophY.
This is accompanied by hypertrophy of
the heart, resulting from enlargement
Of its muscular tissue. This latter leads
to breathing difficulty, aud is often
very painful, the spasms being compli.
Gated by fits of Inconsistencies. This
is the case with the car. There is no
dropsy, however. Diabetes in the pre-
liminary stage has declared itself. but it
Is merely sympathetic and an accom-
paniment OF the main trOnble. When
further advanced this malady frequently
results in partial OF entire paralysis.
Thus far, however, there does not ap-
pear to be any immediate danger of this
with the czar.''
Prof: Leyden was then questioned
regarding the manner in which the
cars cure should be attempted. He
said:
The most important requirement is
total abstentiOn from mental worry and
toll, and OH this point the car haa been
found to be exceedingly difficult to con-
vince. The patient should also have
plenty of sleep and food. and bis diges-
tion should be regular. This, with open
air exercise and good climatic condi-
tons, is all that is necessary to effect a
cure.
Under the most favorable circum-
stances, however, the disease is of
lengthy duration, possibly years, and
the results are most uncertain"
Referring to the prospects OF a re-
gency in Russia, Prof. Leyden re-
marked:
1.-The question of the appointment of
a{regency was discussed at Spale in
my hearing, but no decision was
reached"
Prof. Leyden concluded;
"a regency will become necessary,
however, if II recovery is TO be effected

THE ELECTION JUDGES
Decided Upon by the Common
Council. =. :

The city council held a special meet
ing last night and adopted the lists of
election judges. also the list of polling
places. The Democrats and Repub-
licans, of course. captured the best of
everything, the Populists being given
the privilege of coming i'll as third
party. The poor Prohibitionists
were left out entirely, and
the cold-water alderman from the
Eleventh ward. Mr.. Skoog, found
that his row was anything but pleasant
to hoe. He labored hard Tor principle,
and managed in one or two instances to
squeeze in a Prohibitionist here and
there. Aid. Snyder made motion, at
the opening of the meeting, that the
election judges OIL the lists furnished by
the Republicans and the Democrats and
Populists. the special judges Oh the lists
furnished by the Republicans and DEM
ocrats. and the ballot judges on the lists
furnished by the Republicans be ap-
pointed. This motion was repeated for
each ward and adopted.
1t was expected that some trouble
would be brought upon the body when
the list for the Seventh ward came up
for approval. but none occurred. The
Woodward list was accepted, though he
agreed previously to Aid. Nordeen and
two of his friends being substituted for
the same number of his selections.
When the regular order of business
was taken up the SphinX-like Aid. LOye
offered motion to have the holes and
bitches on NicOllet avenue filled up
with gravel and the avenue put in a
passable condition. 1t was adopted,
and Nicoilet avenue will not be paved
this year. 1t was argued that it was
getting so near winter that it would be
practically impossible to finish the
work.
The Northern Granite company, of
st. Cloud, submitted proposition to
pave the avenue with granite at the low
price of Sl.90 per square yard and wait
until July, 1895, for their money. The
Warren-Scharf company also proposed
to pave the avenue with asphalt under
the same conditions that Hennepin
avenue is being paving under. The
Minneapolis Brick Paving company also
stated in a communication that they
stood ready to carry out the contract for
vitrified brick paving. Aid. Loye's
motion having passed, the propositions
were laid over.
A representative of the trades and
labor council was given a chance to
speak. He asked the council to arrange
it SO that the laborlng men OF the city
who are out of employment be given it.
for the outlook for the coming winter
was anything but bright. He suggested
that the work of building the public
reservoir be begun as soon as possible.
This would give the unemployed work
and help out materially.

THE JIG'S UP,
Floyd Boys Must Stay in Their
Prison.

Prison.
The Floyd boys will not be given a
new trial. This was decided yesterday,
when Judge Jamison fled his order de-
nyIng the motion for new trial. He
says 1.-THE evidence justified the verdict,
and no Irregularities occurred which
did, or reasonably might, have preju-
diced the rights of the defendants"
The objections urged by Mr.. Larrabee
are reviewed at length in the order, and
Judge Jamson holds that the jury was
repeatedly instructed by the court TO
regard only the evidence in the case.
He could find no uHwarranted or extrav-
agant statements in the remarks of the
prosecution at the time of the trial.
When the rumor came to his ears that
the jurors were talking among them
selves he cautioned them a second time
about needing his instructions. Then
continuing, he says, ut was not alone
the right, but also the duty,of the court
to thus instruct the jury. The court
would be poweress indeed, if it could
not thus check improperly and irregu-
larities on the part of jurors"
Judge Jamison failed to see how
Juror DonnOlley could in any way have
been Influenced by the remarks of the
court to vote for conviction, hoping
thus to escape punishment. The in.
formation contained in the affidavits is
held to be valueless.

Work will not be commenced on the
government work in the Mississippi
river this fall. Senator Washburn has
received letter from Mai. Mackenzie,
the government engineer in charge of
the river above Rock Island, in which
the latter states that 1t would be impos-
sible TO commence work at once, owing
to the preparations necessary before it
is undertaken.
