HIS WANDERINGS
LIKE A DREAM.
STRANGE CASE OF MIR. GAUSS, OF
CHICAGO.
Mentally Unsound, He Ia Discovered
by n Friend in San Francisco,
and Will Be Taken Back Home
at Once.

San Francisco, April AZ. F. l..
Gauss. first assistant librarian of the
Chicago Public Library, who disap-
peared from Chicago ten days ago,
was seen today at the Russ house. He
arrived here on March 20, and regis
tered as E. Ernst, of Cincinnati. He
engaged a room from night to night
thereafter. and once registered as F.
Ross, of Chicago. He has not been
entirely sound mentally for some time.
1t was intimated that overwork had
something to do with his condition.
Besides this, scare he had by reason
of a burglar breaking into his Chicago
residence and firing a shot, made his
condition infinitely worse. The ball
from the revolver struck the bed post,
near the head, and gave him such a
shock. that he has not yet recovered.
On Monday DR.. G. E. Newell, of
Chicago, happened to be passing the
Russ house when he saw and identi-
fed Gauss. He took him to his rooms
up town, and has since been looking
after him. The son of the missing
man is now on his way from Chicago
to take him home.
Mr.. Gauss could not account for any
of his wanderings- q As near as could
be gathered he came through Omaha
on the Union and Central Pacific road.
He says he has no clear recollection of
anything for a couple of weeks.
Curiously enough, he does not recol-
lect how he got his meals or whether
he had any or not He came through
bearing only small yalise as bag
gage, but he had all the money that
was required for the trip.
Gauss is heavily built man, some
what over so years of age, with bald
spot on the top of his head. He seems
the papers about him and is anxious
to return home as soon as possible.

Washington, April 4.-The inquisition
suffered by Representative Breckenridge
at the hands of Judge Jere Wilson, re-
garding the testimony of Mrs. Governor
Blackburn would be the talk of the
city tonight. but for some remarks from
Judge Bradley which enlivened the close
OF the days proceedings and have OBJ
scured all other features of the case.
For days past. since the case reached
The zenith OF its sensationalism, crowds
of men. boys and women, many of them
well dressed and respectable Of appear
ance. have thronged the court house
corridors, the sidewalks, even the street
in front of the offices of the attorneys
OF the case at the hour of adjournment,
waiting for the principals to appear,
Glowing for vantage points, bandying
personal comment and making things
80 generally disagreeable that the OBJ
jects of their attention have been driven
10 make their escape through side
doors, adopting various maneuvers to
avoid the unpleasant notoriety. Judge
Bradley has meantime been smothering
a growing feeling of disgust Tonight
MS emotions passed the safety gauge
pointed tongue-lashing as has rarely
been heard in court room. After CON
tracing to hold the court room spec
tators in check until their prey could
get away, he held the usual crush al
bay until he told them their conduct
was characterized by indecency; that
they reminded him Of buzzards around
carrion and other things not pleasant
for the crowd.
Colonel Breckenridge averred Mrs
Blackburns description of nearly
everyone of the material occurrences
when their paths We're crossed were
wrong, but qualified his denfals by the
statement that she had confused dates
and places; had put constructions no:
intended upon his utterances; had at
tributed to him things said by Made
line Pollard, but asserted as a saving
clause, that she had no doubt honestly
endeavored to give her recollection OF
events
Tomorrow the defense will close theil
case.
The plaintiff has several witnesses
in town for rebuttal.
Mrs. Mcclellan Brown, of Cincinnati
the wife Of the former principal OF
Wesleyan Institute, registered at the
Riggs house yesterday. Other Ken
lucky witnesses who are stopping al
the same place are G. H. Keen and G.
NJ. Kelly, of Lexington, and H. +
Queen, Of Covington.
Besides these people Mr.. Wilson
laid the foundation for the appearance
Of several witnesses to impeach Col
Breckenridge, one of them. the colored

Washington, April AIN the Senate
today, the report of the secretary of
agriculture relative to the visible sup
ply of wheat, in response to the resolu-
ton of Senator Pettigrew, passed yes
terday, was read and referred to the
committee on agriculture.
A lively debate was precipitated by
the presentation of a memorial from
the Philadelphia board of trade, pray
ing for an additional duty on sugar.
Senator Quay, who presented the me-
mortal, sent it to the clerks desk to be
read, but Senator Harris, carrying out
the threat made yesterday, that he
would object to the interruption of any
business which would delay the tariff,
objected to the reading of the memorial,
whereupon Mr.. Quay withdrew it and
began to read it himself.
Mr.. Harris objected to Mr.. Quay read
ing the petition, and was sustained by
the chair. Mr.. Quay was permitted to
make a brief statement concerning the
petition.
The Senate then took up the horse
racing and pool selling bill, on the
agreement to the amendment prohibit
! ing pool selling and bookmaking in the
District of Columbia The bill, as
amended, was passed.
| Mr.. PETER had begun a speech on the
proposition to repeal all laws authoriZ-
ing the secretary of the treasury to
! issue bonds without specific authority
| from Congress, when the matter was
put over until tomorrow and the de-
! bate on the tariff bill was resumed.
| Mr.. Allison took up the thread of his
| GTaarh how int tod xrac-
terday, devoting his remarks to the de-
parture from specific to ad Valorem du-
ties and pointed out the inconsistency
fof retaining specific duties on some arti-
cles and the ad Valorem system on 9TH
ers.
In response to a question, Senator Al
| lison declared he intended to vote for
free sugar, both raw and refined, as it
was in the bill as it came from the
! House, and then he would propose an
amendment replacing the bounty on
sugar, as it was in the Mckinley law.
| In conclusion, he asserted he would
not knowingly contribute by this bill
or any other, to the promotion of the
/ interests of Great Britain at a sacrifice
of the interests of his own country.
Mr.. Mills followed, combining himself
chiefly to a defense Of the ad valorem
system.
you must come to the confession
and L must come to the confession, u
Mr.. Mills continued. I'VE can not pass
our bill without making some conces-
sions. L am between the devil and the
deep sea, and when it is a question OF
going to the devil by keeping the Me
Kinley law or of going to the sea, and
there must be some favorable wind tc
blow me back to land, 1 am going tc
sea-
The Senate, at 4:45 o'clock, went into
executive session and when the doors
were reopened, adjourned.

HUNGARIAN ELooUENCE.

New York, April 4.-The entire day
was given up to the Hungarians in
honor of Louis Kossuth. Hungarian,
Italian, Polish and Irish societies pa
raded. An American flag of 1872 was
hoisted at half-mast on the Central
park block house. From the city hall
waved the American and Hungarian
flags at half-mast. Here also the Co
lumbian liberty bell tolled 80 times as
lsuth's age. At the right of the nag
was the official flag of the Columbia
exposition, at the left the Hungarian
liberty flag of 1S4S. Hungarian socie-
ties sang Kossuth's farewell song. To-
night memorial services will be held at
Cooper Union

MANY co TO JAIL.
Coxey's Followers Came to Grief in
Pittsburg.

TIItSDur$S.
Pittsburg, Pa, April At is ascer-
tanned that Coxey and large number
of followers have decided on a trip
through the southern states as soon as
the mission to Washington is fulfilled.
This completed, the task of the re-
formers will be fulfilled and the army
will diSband.
The lockups were filled last night
with men belonging, or claiming to be-
long, to Coxey's army. There were
forty who sought lodgings in the AL
legheny Jail Some had badges and
others said they had just Joined. To-
day they were brought up before
before Magistrate McKelvy and SEN
fenced to thirty days in the work
house. Later it was developed that
several of the men were really unem-
ployed workmen and not ordinary
tramps, and twelve were released. The
others will live at the expense of the
county for the next month.
Today there were large donations of
straw, hay, meat, soup, bread, coffee
and vegetables.

INTERSTATE AMUSEMENT co.
A New Departure in the Theatrical
business

Chicago, April Articles of incor-
poration have been fled with the sec
rotary of state at Springfield providing
for an organization to be known as
the Interstate Amusement company,
with a capital stock of S1,000,0 600. The
incorporates are Charles s. Williams,
E. W. Seymour, w. c. Jordan, George
NJ Dearlove and V. j. Victor, all but
the last named residents of Chicago.
The object of the company is far
reaching. 1t is proposed to establish
a chain of twenty theatres in the lead
ing cities of the United States, all hav-
Ii ing the same name and conducted un-
der a single management. These the
aires will be intimately connected, and
the management will hire travelling
companies at a yearly rate to play en-
gagements in the circuit alone BY
| this system, it is claimed, the expenses
| of conducting a theatrical enterprise
can be reduced fully 50 per cent. The
companies, taking none of the chances
which come while doing business on
| the usual percentage basis, can afford
the opportunity for much less money.
| AS the theatres will all bear the same
name, and as the companies will all
| be chosen at the beginning of the year,
| the photographic printing, which is al
ways an item of large expense. can
| likewise be reduced. Savings can be
/
accordingly to the theory of the COM
pany
w. C. Jordan, a lawyer, at No. sos
/ Masonic building, is one of the incor-
porators. He said yesterday S1,O00,OO
/ was in sight and that any one, three
or four of the incorporators could back
the enterprise if necessary. He claims
le company means business and that
Its incorporates have had the matter
under careful Amusement for some
time.
The cities to be included in the cir
cult include Chicago, New York, Bos-
