CHICAGO ICE BOUND

AND CUT OFF BY TELEGRAPH FROM THE
 OUTSIDE WORLD.
 CHICAGO, Nov. 30.-So far as telegraphic facilities are concerned Chicago has been practically cut of from communication with the outside world since Il o'clock last night. About 10 o'clock a soft, drizzling rain began to fall Almost at the same time the weather turned colder, and within a few minutes not only the sidewalks, but the streets themselves were covered with smooth, slippery and treacherous ice. This morning very few wires out of this city are working, and these are in such bad condi- ton as to render transmission of telegrams very slow and uncertain.
 The weather continued damp and cold, and the trouble became worse instead of improving. At noon telegraph officials reported similar discouragiDg state of af- fairs throughout the west and northwest. Frozen fog or rain has demolished the wires in every direction, and several days will be necessary to clear up the wreck. Clear and cold weather is promised for to-

 They all appear to be in good humor, however, although men who ought to know state that Dr. Grove of Perry is here and is doing considerable of his revolutionary talking.
 Only one or two of the military companies have arrived, but twenty-five companies will be here by breakfast time tomorrow.
 At conference of leaders at the residence of Captain Kolb on South Court street tonight the programm ! for tomorrow's inauguration exercises was arranged. The populist mem bers Of the legislature and Kolo's other supporters will assemble on the front s,eps of the cap iiol al Il o'clock. Prayer by Rev. A. J .. Hearn will be followed by Capt. h.

 The great success of the :. Brownies" last night was due to Miss Momie Terrell, who has spent some days in drilling the little children. She has devoted her time and talent to the difficult undert king, and with the most fiattering success. Her owl, ardent love for the drama and splendid gifts in it's interpretation enabled her to entbuse the little actors and impelied them to show that zeal without which success is impossible. .f..

The "Brownies, '' tale of fairyland, {, was the attraction at O. Brlen's last night, and with one or two exceptions the home talent was splendid. The performance was an excellent ope for children and the large audience that greeted them was pleased. For children who had never been on a stage b,fore it could hardly be excelltd and it was really creditable.
 Miss Milie Nabb as Prince Alderbaran i, ruler of the Brownie band, was ,pital anu she received considerable applause from the audience, who appreciated her splen- cid work. She had every grace Of q prince and ruled the Brownies in priucely man. ner.
 Little Milton Fies as Cholly Bouton niere, the Brownie Exquisite, made a perfect dude, aud he too received large share of the honors Of the evening. His singing was splendid and more than once was "Warnock, ' caught the audience.

MILLER'S SUICIDE.
Iank Examiner Shoots Himself While at
Work At Altoona.

BanR Exauiner Shoots Himself While at
Work At Altoona.
ALTOONA, Aug II Bank Examiner
Miller. who has been X mining the
books of the Second Nltiousl bank.
shot himself through the head at /. OJ
this afternoon and killed himself in
stnntly.
When the fatal shot was fired by
Miller he was sitting in an arm chair
At desk back of the railing in the
bank. The center drawer of this was
open, and after he fred the shot the re-
volvsr fell into tho drawer. Several
large spashes OF blood fill upon the
leak and papers in the drawer aud Mil
ler fell at full length on the floor, where
his head was soon snrrOun1ed Inv 4
large pool of blood and brains, which
flowed from the two ghastly holes on
either side Of his head. The weapon
with which the deel was done is a
Colts army revolver, Al calibre, and the
ball which passed through his head
was afterwards found on the outside
stairs. Presid-nt Lsyhn WAS the only
other person in the bank. and was com
pletely prostraied by the sad event,
having to be taken home. The coroner
was notified and the bank placed =
charge of the police.
1t has been stated that Bank Exam
iner Miller had completed his work OF
going over the banks books, ana had
forwarded his port to the comptroller
Of the treasury at Washington; also
that the bank was in better condition
than at first supposed and that it
would reopen shortly.
The truth Is that none of these state
msnts is known to be correct, but it ia
fact that depositors have been heap
ing censure upon the examiner for not
having out report, and it is now be-
lieved that he was also censured by the
authorities atWashington. and that this
will be found to have been the cause Of
the suicide.
Persons who saw him in the bank
last night say that he seemed to be 60
ing over the books and papers in u hap
hazard sort of way, and it is generally
believed that because of worry and
probable csnsure from his superiors his
mind had become unbalancei.
MIR. Miller's home was at Mer-
Ger. and b. j. Haywood Of that place,
cashier OF the state treasury, lett Har-
risburs for here this afternoon to take
onarge of the body,
