ner against possible ebullitions of an
archsm. Besides Caesiro Santo, no
one, not an official of the assi2e, police
officer nor soldier win be permitted
in or near the court. excepting eighty
specially selected newspaper men.
After reading the indictment the
judge questioned the prisoner, who.
exhibited spirit of bravado. The as
sassin dramatically told how he ac-
complished his iiendish act. lie said:
81 am an anarchist and hate the bur
geois and heads of the state. After this
reply from the prisoner the weapon
with which he killed the presidentwas
brought into court and shown to the
jury, the president saying; "Take
care, gentlemen; do no touch the
blade. 1t is Il relic which must be
previously preserved On being.
further questioned he related how he
pushed his way to the front of the
crowd: 81 laid my left hand on the
carriage and hustled aside q young
man who was in my way. Then
made dash at the president and dealt
him violent thrust with my dagger.
The blade stuck fast in his breast and
my hand touched his coat As /
stabbed him ! cried: 'Vive la rcvou-
ton" Judge Breuillac asked the
prisoner what occurred at the tragic
moment when he caught the presi-
dents eye. The prisoner said; "Pres-
ident Carnot looked me straight in
face. | felt his deep glance the moment
poniarded him,'-(Sensation and up

CHICAGO, ILL.,, August 2.-The lum-
Der district of Chicago was last night
visited by one of the most disastrous
fires in its history and the loss will
probably foot up between 81, 100000
and $2,5000o0, although it win be
twenty-four hours before the damage
can be accurately estimated. The
burned district is about six squars
from east to west and about three
from north to south, where forty acres
of lumber yards are nothing but smok-
ing ruins.

81 SCRANTON, Pa, August 6.-The new
Scranton postoflice, which has only
been opened four months, was robbed
ON Thursday night of stamps to the
value of $4,000. The theft was dis
covered yesterday by Assistant Post
master Outhas, who had occasion to
enter the vault for a supply ofstamps.
The combination lock had been open
ed and the inner doors of the lock
were pried off. The thief or thieves
must have been well acquainted with
the workings of the postotiice, as the
mailing clerks on duty Thursday
night say they neither heard nor saw
anybody about the building after the
doors were closed at o'clock. There
is no clew to the thieves.

WAsHINGToN, August 6,-With the
tariff disposed of the senate could
probably adjourn in three or four days
time. The last of the general appro-
priation bills has passed both houses
and majority of them have been
signed by the president. Some Of
these bills are. in conference still, but
if an agreement on them would bring
an adjournment, it would not long be
delayed, as there are no irreconcil-
able differences between the two
houses ON appropriations. There is
no measure other than the tariff bill
and the appropriation bills which are
strong enough to hold the senate to-
gether for even day, The proba-
bilities for the week include report
from the tariff. conference committee
and subsequent debate and also the
presentation of the conference reports
on the sundry civil. river and harbor,
Indian and general deficiency appro-
priation bills and the consideration
of the calendar when these more i'm
portant items do not occupy position
to receive attention. The immigra-
ton bill will come up to-day at
o'clock and, in lieu of the tariff, may
excite considerable debate. The Re-
publican senators are inclined to press
the question of further Limitation of
immigration, but so far the Demo-
Gratis in the senate have not shown a
disposition to accept the challenge
and they may choose to permit the
Republicans to monopolize, the dis
cussion of the subject. 'f"

WASHINGTON, August 4.-Oflicial
notification Of a battle between the
Chinese and japanese land forces in
Corea was received at the Chinese
legation here last night from the for
eign office at Toxic. The telegram
containing the news stated that July
30 a portion of the Japanese troops at
Seoul marched against a much supe-
rior force of Chinese entrenched at
Shan Yeng. a battle ensued, and
after heavy fighting, the Chinese We're
put completely to route and n large
number of prisoners and munitions OF
war were captured by the Japanese
On the morning of the 30th the Jap
anese proceeded to march against
Gasan. Shan Yeng is situated be-
tween Seoul and Gasan. in Asia,where
the fight between the Japanese and
Chinese, resulting in the loss of 200C
japanese is lepored to have occurred
1t is the opinion of the Chinese lega-
ton officials here that the reports
from Chinese sources containing
rumors of the defeat of the japanese
at Gasan are probably gross eXagger-
ations, though do dispatches referring
to fight at the latter place have yet
been received.

GUTHRIE, o. T. August 1,-As a
result of another attempted bank rob-
berry in Oklahoma, one citizen is dead
and one outlaw dying and the whole
Territory is greatly excited. Soon
after ten O'Clock this morning five
armed men rode into Chandler from
the east, dismounted back of the Lin
coin county bank and three rushed in-
side, while two stood guard at the
door with Winchesters. Two men
covered the president, Harvey Kee,
and his brother, the cashier, and de-
manded that they hand out the cash
pretty d--n quick, while the third
rushed into the private office where
Teller Hoyt was seriously sick and
compelled him to walk to the safe and
attempt to open it. Though Il Win
chester was pointed in his face he
could not stand long enough to open
it and fell to the floor The robber
kicked him and shot at him but miss
ed fire. The men on guard called out
that it was time to go and the three
grabbed two or three hundred dollars
lying ON the counter and ran to the
horses. In the meantime the guard at
the front door had shot and killed j.
NJ. Mitchell, barber, who attempted
to give the alarm. The bandits had
scarcely passed out of the city when
posse were mounting and starting
in pursuit. Twice were horses shot
from under the bandits, but they
compelled farmers coming to town to
give up their mounts and went ON.
Finally battle was fought for nearly
fifteen minutes, when one of the rob-
bers fell, shot through the hips, and
the others scattered and escaped in
the hills of Greek county, The
wounded man gave his name as Ern-
est Lucas, aged 81, lie says the
others were the notorious Cook gang
and he had been with them but a
week

WASHINGTON, August 4.-The I'M
derstanding among the tariff conferees
when they adjourned late yesterday
afternoon was that the session to-day
should bring out either an agreement
ON the sugar schedule or decision to
report disagreement. This schedule
in detail provides for duty of 40 per
cent adyalorem on sugar below 16
Dutch standard and 40percent on sugar
above this grade, the duty on the re-
fined sugar to he collected on the
basis of the sacchNrine strength ofthe
raw sugar used in it,'witl- one-ffth OF
cent diilerential ON the refined and a
discriminating duty equal to the ex-
port duty levied by such sugar pro-
ducing counties as pay a bounty on
mgar product. This schedule was
submitted to the conference as the Ill
timatum of the conservative senators,
coming through Senator Smith, and
tho house conferees We're given to un-
derstand that the schedule was the
nearest approach to the requirements
that the senate could offer with any
assurance that the bill would pass. the
senate.
