nations OF impatience he listened to;
the recital of the grievance. Whom
the American officer had finished MAXI
ing his statement, Ia Cana, with q
shrug CT his shoulders, said in q very
sharp. t.ne:
at is not my fault. The American
ship captains should know enough to
keep themselves and their crews cut of
range Of our guns. shall not take
any notice of this matter"
This curt response to his message
aroused the ire of Admiral Benham,
and he determined to make such q
showing that it would produce 10 t.
ing effect upon the insurgents. In the
morning the decks of the vessels of the
American fleet were clea, ed for action.
The bark Amy, the captains of the
other vessels having weakened. took
her position in the ranks of the Amer
lean YES els, and was escorted to the
wharf.
Throughout the whole affair not
single shot was fired, but the scene
was quite as impressive as if this had
been done, and the incident has taught
the insurgents a lesson. After passing
along Rios water front the fleet re.
turned ou' into the bay and anchored
in nearly the same position it had oc-
cupied previous to the demonstration.
Full protection rom this time on will
be given to all American YES els.

Dnds of Corbett were continually break
.ng into the ring to control him.
Mitchell seemed like a child in COM
parison with Corbett, but he gave the
champion q good battle, and in the
opinion of several good judges had
slight advantage in the first round.
He was many pounds lighter than his
opponent, and lacked the height and
reach Of the man from California, who
has climbed to the topmost round of
the pugilistic ladder and finds himself
In the position of Alexander, with no
new worlds to conquer. In the second
and third rounds Corbett showed his
superiority and beat the plucky En-
glishman into insensibility.
After the victory Joe Vendig ap-
preached COrbett and suggested that
1t would be q graceful thing for him
to patch up his quarrel with Mitchell.
Corbett hung back for moment and
then concluding that the victor could
afford to be generous approached his
late antagonist and said: there's my
hand. Mitchell, and I'll treasure up no
animosity toward you.
OF International Interest.
All things considered, the battle be-
tween James j. Corbett and Charles
Mitchell is the most important event
In the annals Of the prize ring. It
marks the turning point in fistic ath-
lettcs. C0rbett belongs to the new
scientific boxers, representing per-
maps the most advanced ideas In the
lne Of pugilists. Mitchell, while not
strictly identified with the old line, re.
ceived his earliest impressions and
much o. his earlier training from the

BAD YEAR FOR FARMERS.

Report OF the Agricultural Department Il
Not Encouraging.
In the report of the Agricultural De.
rartment the total value of the corn
crop for 1893 is placed at $59l $50, ,627.
and although the crop is only about
1900, ,0CO bushels less than that of 1892
its money value on the farm is $50, 5OO,-
600 less. The value per acre is 1921,
the lowest figure for ten years, except
for the years of 1885 and 1889. The
falling of in the wheat crop for the
year is even more marked. The
total product, as estimated, amounts to
398, ,lI, 725 measured bushels, which
falls below the average for the ten
years 1880 to 1889 to the amount Of 53.-
563, ,364 bushels, ard is 81, Gas, 1856 bushels
less than the average crop for the years
1890 to 1893, inclusive. There has also
been fall in the rrice of wheat, so
that the farm value of the crop is esti-
mated at no more than S2l3, Ill 1881,
which ia believed to be the lowest ever
recorded. The crop of oats in 1893 was
q, $50, leo bushels less than in 1892, and
the farm value was $21, ,677, ,519 less
The report also shows corresponding
decrease in the crop of potatoes, rye
and barley, not alone in the production
but in the price.

Jones went out to look after

stuck two pistols into the faces of the
peddler and Mrs. Jones. He first de-
manded the peddler's money, and get
ting that made Mrs. Jones bring the
tax money. AS he got it he turned to
go out, when the peddler quickly drew
pistol and firing struck the robber

was then discovered that the would-be

collector himself, blacked up.

George II. Painter Dies ON the Scanold II
Chicago
George III. Painter was hanged il
Chicago Friday morning at = O'Clock
for the murder of Alice Martin.
Painters attorneys made desperate
effort to cave his life, and the con.
demned man was twice reprieved by
Gov. Altgeld on the strength of alleged
new evidence of his innocence. The
Governor, however, finally decided that
this evidence was not of sufficient
weight to warrant executive interfer.
ence and the sentence and the law was
carried out. A horrible acci.
dent attended the execution.
When the drop fell the rope
broke with snap and the doomed
man sank to the floor with the black
cap saturated with blood. Horror.
stricken, the attendants rushed for.
ward to where Painter lay gasping.
Hurriedly picking him up, they car
ried him to chair. The physician
made an examination. and found that
he had tainted and that life was not
extinct. Immediate preparations for 8
rehanging began and a new rope was
put up. 1t was but the work of mo.
ment to put the now rope in place, and
when the trap fell the last zine, death
speedily ensued.
The crime for which Painter suffered
the extreme penalty of the law was the
murder of Alice Martin. at Sc Green
street, on the night of May Z, 1891.
The couple lived as man and wife. The
murder, which was most brutal in its
nature, is shrouded in mystery, which
the latest developments in the case have
only served to deepen. ,Only:this much
is known: At about midnight Painter
was seen to enter the house. A
short time later he ran down
the stairs exclaiming, .My God,
some one has killed my Alice!" He
rushed in search of the police, who ar
rived few minutes later, and going
to the room, found Alice Martin dead
with the imprint of strong hand
on her throat. Her head was crushed
by blows which had evidently been
dealt with chair found lying broken
on the floor. The walls and rooms
were spattered with blood. Painter
was arrested and from that time until
his death he strenuously denied his

DECKS CLEARED FOR ACTION.
American war-shlp, Prepare to Resent an
Insult at Rio.

Monday was one of the most exciting
days that Rio Janeiro has experienced
since the commencement of hostilities
between the insurgents and the Brazil
ian Government. The United States
naval fleet stationed in that harbor has
furnished the excitement. Provoked
beyond the endurance of patience by
the continued carelessness of the gum
ners aboard the rebel warship Aquida-
ban, and tried by the Indifference
shown on the part Of the revolutionary
Admiral to all his protests that Amer-
lean vessels entering or leaving the
harbor were not afforded proper pro-
lection by the rebel fleet. Admiral Ben
ham made q demonstration with the
American war vessels under his COM
mand which will undoubtedly have the
effect hereafter of securing proper rec
Ogniti0n of the rights of vessels under
the American flag.
Three American vessels, the bOrk
Amy, Captain Blackboard; the bark
Coed News, Captain Myrick, and the
bark Julia Rollins, Captain Kiehne,
were fired on last Saturday by the in
surgent vessels. The three captains
held hurried conference and deter
mined to appeal for protection to the
United States war ships and to request
that the barks be given an escort to
thA wharves. Capts. Kiehne, Myrick,
and Blackford put off in small boats at
great danger to themselves, and pull
Ing up to where the flag ship New
York was stationed, stated the case
TO Admiral Benham. he promised to
adjust matters.
Admiral Benham then sent ore Of
his officers to the Aquidaban with or

with the facts and to ask him to- have
