LONDON, Oct. 14.-A dispatch to the

that the Portuguese have politely de-
clined the offer of assistance made TO
them by Cecil Rhodes. prime minister
of Cape Colony, to quell the rebellion.
The dispatch adds that the cable station

NEW COMPULSORY SYSTEM.
ClericaIS and Married Tax

Extra Votes.
MANY LIBERALS DEFEATED.
The Cars Death Not Likely
to Be Sudden--London
Money.

BRUSSELS, Oct IA - Elections for
members of the chamber of deputies
we're held throughout Belgium today.
The voting was under the new COM
puisory system, which provides severe
penalty for non-voters. The electors
were divided into three classes as fol-
lows: One year residents over twenty
fve years of age. who were entitled to
one vote; married men and widowerS
with families who pay personal tax
of five francs to the state. who had three
votes. and priests and others of position
and education, who had two votes.
The Clerical party under this system
had great voting strength, The Social
lists made strong light as the iIde-
pendent party. The Liberals are di-
vided, and are likely to show badly in
the places where the Clericals and
Socialists are in force. The elections
were orderly, except at Alost, in East
Flanders. where collisions occurred.
The counting Of votes is slow process.

show that the Liberals and C!ericals ran
closely. and probably reballots will be
necessary. In Charleroi and Liege,
mining and manufacturing centers, the
Radicals and Socialists are ahead, hav-
ing defeated many Liberal candidates.
Including Frere Joban. the moderate
Liberal leader. NJ. De Bruyan. minister
of public works and agriculture has
been reelected in Fermonde.
1885 A. M.-The Catholic candidates S
have been reelected in all the Flemish
| towns with large majorities. As far as
aScertaned at this hour, it appears that
| the first trial of the new constitution
| has resulted in severe check for the
| Moderate Liberals to the benefit of the
| Clericals and Socialists, the Clericals,
| who remain in the government party,
having opposed to them divided min
| ority of Liberals and Socialists.
Oct. 15 8. a. m.-The returns Eow at

| to tell how the election las gone. 1t is
| thought, however, that the Socialists
| will decide the reballotS in the city.
They will be in position to
| dictate terms to the Liberals, and if their
| terms are rejected all the seats will fall

| Minister De Burlet, whose election at

stood; is doubtful. All the members of
the cabinet are reelected.

CLEVELAND, o., Oct. Il. - The
police OF this city believe that the mur-

falo last night after confessing that it
was she who killed Gibbs. is believed to
have told the truth in part at least
Her husband is in jail here charged
with burglary, and cousin of hers.
named Bert Snyder, is also under arrest
on the same charge. A detective said
today that Snyder had made state
ment to the police which threw food
of light on the Gibbs murder. SNYDER
said that Robinson had confessed the
murder to him. According to the story,
Robinson and his wife arrived in Buffalo
early last spring. They were penniless
and decided to commit robbery to get
money. The woman donned mems
clothing, and she and her husband vent
TO lonely place en- Delaware avenue to
wait for a victim. Gibbs was the first
well-dressed man who happened along.
He was told to throw up his hands. and.
when he resisted, Robinson shot him.
The couple then fled and the next morn
ing they came to Cleveland. A dis
patch from Buffalo says that Assistant
Chief OF Police Cusack, of that cjty.
started for Cleveland again tonight. and
1t is believed that he will make n de-
mand for Robinson On the strength of
Snyder's story, which may have been
corroborated by the woman, who is
closely guarded in the Buffalo city

dent that occurred this morning at the
crossing of the Louisville & Nashville
and the Northeastern road, about two
miles from where the Louisville &
Nashville road leaves Elysian Fields
street-an accident that will, in all
probability, result in at least one fatal
ity. while score of passengers on the
louisville q Nashville railroad received
severe injuries. The Louisville &
Nashville Across the Lake" excursion
train, consisting of eight coaches, we'll
loaded with pleasure seekers, large
proportion of them being women and
children, pulled out on time. AS
the train approached the crossing
of the Northeastern tracks Engineer
Hanley brought his train to stop
and whistled. as the law requires. He
then gave the signal to go ahead. and
proceeded across the tracks of the
Northeastern. The Louisiana train,
carrying excursionists to points in st.
Tammany parish. was booming along
its track. and with shrill shrek from
its whistle for"down brakes" it crashed
into the sixth coac h of the Louisville &
Nashville train. The collision threw
crowded coach completely into the ditch.
while the attacking engine was derailed
and buried its nose several feet in the
soft mud. Passengers on the East
Louisiana train were uninjured, except
for the shock of the collision. Not SO
With the coast excursion, no 7ever.
Just before the iron monster struck the
coach several Of the passengers saw it
coming and panic ensued. There was
wild rush to escape from the doomed
coach, but before one OF the passengers
could reach either platform the ap-
preaching engine had struck. and
the coach, with its living freight,
was hurled from the tracks
into the ditch. Women and child
rem sErieked in their terror,
while men fought their way blindly for
some escape from the coach. Seats
were torn up and hurled in every direc-
tion by the force of the collision, and
after the first wild panic had subsided
there were heard piteous means from
different quarters Of the wreck, telling
of painful injuries. Willing hands went
to work and within a short time the
wounded ones had been taken from the
coach and made as comfortable as cir
cumstances would permit. The great
est Indignation and anger prevailed
among. the witnesses OF the collision
against Engineer Simpson. who had
ruthlessly disregarded the law reQuir-
ing him to stop and had caused the
frightful wreck. Inquiry developed the
fact that Simpson had escaped to the
swamp. A section foreman on his hand
car brought the news of the collision to
the city, and the Northeastern officials
dispatched special train to convey the
injured to the city. They!are all people

MANY LOYALISTS KILLED.
The Rebels to Advance on
Woo-Chang, Province Of
Hoo-Pee.
PROPOSED CHINESE LOAN.
One Hundred Thousand AIbini
Rifles Purchased for the
Chinese.

LONDON. Oct. IA dispatch from
Shanghai, dated today. confirms the re-
port telegraphed to the Associated
Press that rebellion has broken out 100
miles from Hankow. The rebels are
fairly armed and very reckless.
They attacked the government
buildings. which were feebly de-
Tended by loyal troops. The
latter were soon defeated and
many of them were killed. Many others
joined the rebels. Two mandarins
were killed. The province is almost
denuded of troops and the rebels are
gaining strength daily. 1t is expected
that they will advance on Woo Chang.
province of Hoo Pee, of which Hankow
is the capital. The garrison at Woo
Chang has gone to the coast, and the
place is. therefore, practically defense
less.
LONDON, Oct. 14.-A dispatch from
Shanghai says: 1t is reported that in
consequence OF the projected 81, 10000
10 per cent loan to be guaranteed by the
imperial customs, Chinese agents
abroad have been Instructed to put the
best face possible on the recent Chinese
reverses and to represent the fleet as
being active and efficient.
LONDON, Oct. IA dispatch from
Berlin states that Hamburg firm has
purchased 100000 Albini rifles at four
francs each from the Belgian govern.
ment for export to China.
LONDON, Oct. ia dispatch to the
Times from Berlin says that Germany's
refusal to interfere in the Chinese
Japanese trouble does not affect the
question of the protection to Europeans
in China, in which she will fully CO.
operate. The German commander in
Chinese waters has already been au-
thorized to dispatch small body of
marines to protect the legation at Pekin.
Ii there is any trouble it is believed
that the moral effect of even such a
small body of European troops would
effectually check Chinese mob.

GOLD MOVEMENT.
1t Is Likely to Be From the United
States

LONDON, Oct. 14.-Owing to the rise
in the rates of exchange the German
demand for gold is ceasing. The fact
that the balance OF trade is against the
United States makes American gold ex-
port more likely than imports. Dis
count rates here, therefore, exhibit
weakness. Nothing is yet settled in re-
gard to the Spanish or Chinese loans.
1t is probable that the latter loan will be
95,000,000, secured ON the customs dues
at the treaty ports. The stock market
has not yet fully recovered from the re-
cent scare, but since the settlement,
which was got over without trouble, the
markets have shown distinctly
stronger tone. Foreign securities.
even Russian and Turkish, were all
better. while Chinese securities re-
covered from their temporary relapse
when it was recognized that the interest
on the bonds is not dependent upon the
imperial treasury, but upon the revenue
of the treaty ports. Home railway Sc
curities during the week were easier.
All investment stocks suffered more
during the scare than speculative secur-
tiles. An improvement in American
railroad securities is long time COM
ing. Purchases of these securities were
Oh the most moderate scale, while bear
selling tended TO depress the market.
Louisville & Nashville was down 2,

others showed fractional declines.

securities were strong.

TRIBUTE TO HOLMES.
Touching Address Delivered by
DR.. McArthur

NEW YORK. Oct IA sermon on
the life and character of Oliver Wendell
Holmes was preached tonight by the
Rev. DR.. Robert S. Macarthur at the
Calvary Baptist church. He said in
part:
''Never was there more beautiful
death than that OF Oliver Wendell
Homes. He passed from earth TO
heaven as beautifully as the sun sets in
an October day. Never was there
writer in America or Great Britain
more honored or beloved. Sidn ey
Smith sneeringly asked: Who rea DIS
an American book?' While lie was
asking this question half a dozen Ameri-
cans were preparing to write books
which all the world should know.
Among these men were Hawthorne.
Longfellow, Emerson, Lowell and
Whittier. Holmes was the center of
this brilliant galaxy. There was no
writer in the group who reached so lofty
a position as Tennyson and Browning,
but the average attained by American
writer's during the period is higher than
that reached by British writer's Of the
same time.
Zones heart grows sad as he thinks
that the last of this group has gone.
There WAS never before such al Ameri-
can school, and IN the nature of the
case there can never be such another
American school. Not until we have
some great political upheaval of natures
cataclysm shall we again produce such
school of poets"
NEW YORK, Oct. "A. "The Late
Autocrat of the Breakfast Table was
the subject OF the address of Rev. Dr.
Collier, pastor of the Church of the
Messiah, TODAY. II feel some touch of
anger" said DR.. Collier, because of
the newspaper references TO DIR. Holmes
i'll which he was described as man 0f
limitations. Such remarks touching so
grand a man are mistake. OF all the
men have known think lie is the last
of whom we could say: He was not
this, and he was not that he was just
Oliver Wendell Holmes. the coed physi-
clan and the grand poet. He was him-
self, and bit of the truest manhood We
have known in this generation"

THE STRAUSS JUBILEE.
Reception to the Great Composer
Very Enthusiastic

VIENNA, Oct. 1.-THE festivities in
connection with the Strauss jubilee
were continued today. The composer
received a great number of congratu-
latory visits, letters and kilograms. In
addition he received many presents
from persons prominent in the art and
music worlds at home and abroad. AT
noon grand concert was given by the
members of the royal opera orchestra,
the Philharmonic society, the Vienna
male choir and number of welI-knOwn
soiolsts. Devenlhger was given a
brilliant promenade concert, arranged
by Edward Strauss, the composers
brother. AT both concerts the pro-
gramme was entirely made up of music
composed by Johann Strauss. The re.
ception given to the great composer
was most enthusiastic. More concerts
were given at Prague and elsewhere.
The Standards Vienna correspondent
remarks that no member OF the imperial
family has yet congratulated Herr
Strauss, whose celebration appears 10
be supported by the bourgeoise and the
artistic classes. The aristocrats and
Officialdom held aloof. The COM
poser Brahma, Pauline Lncea
and other musical celebrities

Strauss sat in the background of one of
the central boxes with his wife and
step-daug hter in front of him, but he
was repeatedly compelled by the plaud
its of the aSSemblage TO come forward
and bow. A dispatch to tine Chronicle
from Vienna says that the scenes
at the opera house Satur-
day and at the concerts
today were of unparalleled enthusiasm.
There was hardly writer, actor or
musician in Europe who did not send a
gift. Strauss splendid home is already
a museum, and it will require new
building to display the astounding
number Of magnificent presents he has
received. The actual jubilee will COM
mence on Monday. which is the auni-
verSary that Strauss conducted his

Wickes. second vice president of the
Pullman Palace Car company, was in
his office until dusk yesterday. but up
to the hour of leaving. George W. How-
ard, vice president of the American
Railway union, had not returned his
annual sleeping car pass. Mr.. Howard's
passes over forty railroads were lost,
but he recovered them. Howard did
not think it necessary TO return his pass
on account of the relations existing be.
tween his order, the American Railway
union, and the Pullman company during
the summer months, and now that the
public, which includes the workingmen
of the country knows that he has the
Pullman pass, he lets twentyfoUr hours
slip by without turning it back to the
issuing corporation. Mr.. Wickes said
yesterday it was customary to Issue
passes to the heads of organizations of
railroad men. "Mr. Howard first re-
ceived his pass" said Mr.. Wickes,
"when he was ut the head of the con.
ductors' organization. 1t has been re,
newed yearly since. The trouble is all
over now. and there Is 10 reason why
we should be uncharitable. MIR. How

wig, which sailed from here before the
storm with cargo of timber, was picked
up last night about fifteen miles off the
bar and towed in this morning by the
tug Monarch. The bark was caught
in the storm about 130 miles
south of the bar while under
bare poles. Her three masts were
broken off and carried away and her
bulWarks and stanchionS were stove in.
For about forty hours her rail was under
water. Her crew was lashed to the
