SHOT AN ALDERMAN,
Street Railway Owner Too Free
With His Gun

BENTON HARBoR. Mich, Aug. 12.-
Alderman Charles Schriyer was shot in
the leg by w. w. Bean. owner of the
st. Joseph and Benton Harbor electric
railway, early this morning. Several
months ago Beams franchise expired,
and two weeks ago he was notified to
remove a certain portion of the track TO
permit street paving. Last night the paw
ing work was stopped on account of the
tracks not having been moved. The
city marshal, with some aldermen and
forty laborers. went to the scene at 4:3O
this morning to remove the tracks.
Bean was there with several employees
and deputy sheriff. When the mar.
shalS men began to move the tracks
Bean fired gun at Schriver. woundIng
him badly in the leg and hand. Others
of the marsha'S party were covered by
the guns of some OF the st. Joseph men.
Deputy sheriffS from Benton Harhor
arrested Bean. At IL O'Clock work was
resumed by the marshaFs party under
guard of fourteen officers, and this
afternoon the track was piled upon the
side of the street. While there is con-
siderable feeling against Bean, some
believe the shooting was accidental.

ARMY PROMOTIONS.
Some Changes Scheduled for the
Future.

Future.
On the 9th day Of November Maj,
Gen. D. o. Howard will be retired and
Brig. Gen. Thomas H. Ruger will be
promoted to the grade Of major general.
On the Goth day of September. 1895,
Mai. Gen. j.. NJ. Schofield will be re-
tired, and the vacancy thus created Will
be filed by the promotion of Brig. Gen.
Wesley Merritt. The vacancies created
by the promotion of Ruger and Merritt
will be filled by the president by selec-
tiOns from the army at large, but as Col.
w. r. Shafter is the senior colonel of
infantry and Col. James w. For.
and both have good war records.
1t Is most likely that they
will succeed to the vacancies. By the
retirement of Maj. Gen. Schofeld Maj.
Gen, Nelson A. Miles will become the
senior major general. and therefore tire
commander of the army. He will not
be retired until Aug. 8. 1898. In the
meantime. all the brigadiers will have
reached their sIXty-fourth year and been
retired; SO will all of the colonelS and
lieutenant colonies of artillery, all of the
all of the lieutenant colonels except
Sumner, Perry. Young and Bacon. In
the infantry there will be only three
colonels. De Russey. Bates and Burt.
and only ten of the present lieu
tenant colOnels of that arm
of the service, W. L. Kellogg. E. r.
Kellogg, Overshine. Page. Brady.
Parke. Theaker, Van Valzah. Moale
and Kline. OF those who will be on
the active list when Miles retires
only two attained the rank of col
onel during the late war. 1t will be
safe to say, should Miles live to be sixty
four years old, his successor will be one
who had little or no experience in the
handling of men in the late war.
None of those who will be on
the active list in 1908 are
graduates of West Point This will be
readily understood when it is remem-
bered that in 1861 the youngest graduate
was about twenty.three years old, while
the young men who entered the yolun-
teer service and fought their wav up did
so at the age of eighteen or less
Should this country become involved
in war after 1908 new leaders will have
to come to the front and Twin their
spurs" as they did in 1861.

ALL EYES ON GAZEN.
The Result of the Fight There
Awaited With Interest.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 12.-Of1cials of
the Japanese legation here are without
any information respecting the reported
fighting at Wei Hai-Wei aud Port
Arthur on the Chinese coast. They are
inclined to the belief that the home
government is awaiting full and COM
plete reports of the battles, as it had
regarding the fight at Gazen, Korea,
before advising its representatives
abroad. Much interest in the move
ments against the abOve-named place is
felt by officials of the government here.
At or near Port Arthur Lii Hung Chang
has his great military stores, arsenaIs
ana other resources for continuation
of warlike operations.
Both Port Arthur and Wei-Hai-Wei
are in the line of direct route by water
to the mouth of the Pei-Ho river, by
which the city of Peking can be
reached, and any movement against the
former places is likely to be factor
in the attempt which many persons
here :believe Japan will make to over
throw the dynasty at Peking.

THE BRITISH PRINCE.
Royalists in Fine Style-Tha
Prince Pleased.

LONDON. Aug. 12.-During the fetes
in London some time ago. in honor Of
the officers of the American cruiser
Chicago, which was then lying at
Gravesend, the Prince of Wales ex-
pressed to Admiral Erben and Capt.
Mahan desire to visit the vessel the
next time she was at CoWeS. The
princes engagement to visit the Chi
cago Saturday was fixed at recent
dinner given on board the royal yacht
Osborne. Accordingly, the princes
pinnace arrived alongside the Chicago
at exactly seven bells Saturday. AS he
stepped aboard the cruiser a salute
of twenty-one guns was fired, the
British ensign was hoisted at the fore
truck and the yards were manned by
the crew. Admiral Erben, Capt. Mahan,
Lieutenant Commander Potter and
Lieut.. Glover greeted the royal party as
they came aboard the ship. The Prince
of Wales wore the uniform of British
admiral, and the Duke Of York that of a
post-captain, while the members of the
princes suite were attired in the uni
forms of their respective ranks. A
guard of marines was drawn upon the
port side of the quarter deck. and they
were carefully inspected by the prince.
The sun was shining brightly. and the
brilliant uniforms and snow white
decks made a picturesque scene. AT the
request of the prince, all of the officers
of the Chicago were presented TO him in
turn. The royal party was then escorted
to all the different parts of the
ship except sick bay. This latter part
of the ship the prince particularly de-
sired 10 see, but was unable to do so,
owing to the accident that had occurred
to Seaman Hill, who had fallen from
aloft just as the prince was boarding the
vessel. The prince remarked that he
understood the American medical de-
partment was the best equipped in the
world. The members of the royal party
repeatedly expressed their admiration
Of the appearance of the vessel. On
quitting the Chicago the Prince of
Wales expressed the pleasure that his
visit had afforded him.
The officers and the crew of the Chi
cago are elated with the success of their
boats crew in Fridays regatta, as they
beat several heretofore unbeaten crews.
Some feeling is expressed at the cold
ness displayed by the spectators ashore.
The men declare that had British boat
won victory in American waters, her
crew would have received far better
reception than was given to them here.

Upon the Cut of Interest Rates by
London Banks.
LONDON, Aug. 12.-The reduction bv
the joint stock banks of the rates of in
terest OH deposits caused revival of
speculation at the stock exchange dur
ing the week. The prohibitive prices of
gilt-edged securities has given second
and third-rate investments chance. A
strong rise in home railway securities
was the feature of the week. But for
the unfortunate Atchison disclosures,
which are denounced here as the worst
specimen seen in many years, there
would probably have been large buying
Of American securities. AS it was, the
prospect of settlement of the Ameri-
can tariff question tempted many buy
erS and strengthened prices, the belief
being that the commercial crisis in the
United States had reached its turning
point. Foreign securities, including
South Americans, were all firm. The
next settlement promises to be active.
Brokers are thankful because of the
prospect of revival of business. The
European bourses are equally animated.

buyers of Mexican railway bonds and

lean railways were: Denver u Rio

REDEE1ING KANSAS.
Banker Morrill, Sounds the keynote" Of
the Coming Campaign.

the Coming Campaign.
In the keynote" which he sound
ed at Kansas City, Kans., on Satur-
day night, Major Morrill,, the Repub-
lican candidate for governor of Kan
sas, said: Il would rather vote for
one of the most rabid Democrats that
ever lived than one Of these POpu-
lists" This hatred which the Re-
publicanS entertain for the POpulists
is heartily reciprOcated. 1t would be
hard to pick up POpulist who would
not rather vote for Democrat than
Republican. This illustrates the
terrible acrimOny Of family QuarrelS.
A large proportion Of the Populists
have been Republicans. They fol-
lowed the teachings Of that party for
years with unqueStiOning faith, and
were quite as radical when they were
within the Republican fold as they
are now. But all OF their former 10y.
atty has turned to gall and it is SO
bitter that there is little danger of
the POpulists returning to their old
observation-disclosures City Star.
This keynote" utterance Of Banker
Morrill, is an index to the sort Of cam
paign that is to be made by the Re-
publicanS this fall In their great act
OF 'redeeming Kansas" They are to
drop their bitterness toward Demo.
Gratis and coax them to vote the Re-
publican ticket. There is an element
OF Democracy which will thus favor
them, because their sympathies are
alike, and it is perfectly natural for
them to prefer bankers and Goldfish
aristOcracy to representatives Of the
poorer classes. But there is a far
larger element whose Sympathies and
sentiments are in exact line with the
POpulists. Having been betrayed by
the aristGcratic Democracy as repre-.
sented by Grover Cleveland, a life,
