CHICAGO, Dec. 3.-Three-quarters
of a million dollars have been stolen
from the campaign fund of the Dem
ocratic party, raised for the years
1898, 1894 and the spring of 1885. This
charge is made by M. c. Mcdonald
and Aid. John Powers. 1t is sus-
tained by the newly elected chair
man of the county central commit
tee, Thomas Gahan, in the statement
that the funds of the past two years
have not been accounted for The
money was raised for the campaign
which resulted in the election of
Hopkins for mayor, the county COM
missioners' campaign following, for
the aldermanic campaign, for the
Wenter contest, and for the drainage
campaign, recently closed. The DEM
ocratic administration of Carter
Harrison is charged with the misuse
of this money, and for this misuse
no explanation is at present forth
coming from the Democratic citi-
zens who stand under the charge of
having taken the money for their
own personal benefit, involving in
its expenditure trips to Europe, to
West Baden and to Hot Springs, and
the building of various expensive
residences in various parts of the
city.

HEAPS OF CoRPsES.
Dead Armeninns
Laid Away in One Trench.

y LONDON, Dec. 3.-The Daily News
Correspondent at Constantinople says:
"a letter from a European at Marso-
van says that on Saturday after the
massacre there was ghastly spectacle
at the edge of the Armenian cemetery.
Corpses were brought py the wagon
load and tossed upon the ground in
heaps. Aside from the rifiing of the
bodies by the perpetrators of the
slaughter, a hyena-like horde of bar
barians pounced on these heaps and
stripped the dishonored carc9sses of
what poor clothing they had, leaving
them in all degrees of nudity. Finally,
about noon, a score of Armenians,
headed by a priest, were sent under
protection of soldiers, to bury the
eorpses. Eighty-thre of them were
laid in single trench. Probably about
a hundred of them were killed.
The Vienna correspondent of the
Daily News says that dispatch to
tt Turkish embassy there last night
says the sultan has resolved to break
all diplomatic relations if the powers
fe the Dardanelles. A dispatch
f. o..i Rome to the Daily News says
there is great activity in all the Ital-
ian arsenals to prepare the whole naval
lforce of the country. The cruiser Pie
monte, the newest and fastest in the
italian service, her speed being twenty
one knots an hour, has been ordered to
the Levant. -

MEDICAL TESTIMONY.
Movement in New York to Crush
n Rad Practice

ALBANY, N. Y, Dec. 3.-An i'm
portant measure to be introduced in
the legislature during the coming
session will be one to abolish expert
medical testimony in this state so
far as, it is now given by physicians
and surgeons of any degree of ability
who may be called by the lawyers in
trial case. During the last five
years in this state both the medical
and legal professions have viewed
with alarm the growing frequency
of the introduction of expert medi-
cal testimony, especially in cases Of
murder, when the defense has usual
ly become to be a claim of insanity.
Any physician, however shallow his
knowledge, has been called upon to
testify, and in some cases there are
known to have been men introduced
as experts who have proven to be
purchasable in their opinion.
Several members of the medical pro-
fession, whose names at this time cam
not be mentioned, have drawn a bill
which will be presented to the legisla-
ture early in the session of 1896 1t will
be very radical in it's terms and will
lodge the right to give medical expert
testimony in the courts of this state
in a non-partisan board, appointed by
the governor subject to the approval
of the senate. The members will be
chosen from the ranks of the most eX-
pert, having a high ascertained quail
fication. Under. no circumstances will
any physician not member of the
board be allowed to testify in any of
the courts of the state, unless it he
upon the absolute facts Of the tiial.

Society May Undertake the Dis
tributiOn of Relief.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 8. Hagop
Bogigian, the secretary of the meet
ing recently held in Faneuil hall,
Boston, in the interest Of the Ar
menians, called on Secretary Olney
today with a view to learning if the
American funds collected for the re-
lief of the sufferers could be distrib-
uted through the instrumentality of
Minister Terrell. The secretary sug-
gested the Red Cross society as an
agency that was best adapted to the
work of distribution. Mr.. Bogigian
later called on Miss Barton, the pres
ident, and some of the staff officers
of the society, regarding the mat
ter. While the answers to his ques-
tions were rather non-committal,
the impression he received was that
if there was popular demand or re-
quest that the Red Cross undertake
the work it would do so.

FAVORABLE EXPRESSIONS.
INTEHEST Conferred MAINLY
ON THE FINANCIAL RECON-
MENDATIONS.
REPUBLICAN DIsAPPROvAL.
Party Opponents Were, However,
Pleased at CIeveIand,s Posi-.
tiOn on Foreign Affairs.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 3. - Both
curiosity and interest were manifest
ed by the members of the house in
the presidents message. Members
expressed surprise that no recon-
mendatiOn was made for the supply
of the treasury deficit. In the dis
cussion of foreign affairs, the por-
ton devoted to the enforcement of
the Monroe doctrine in connection
with the boundary line dispute, and
the suggestions regarding Cuba, at
tracted especial attention, but the
main interest centered in the recon-
mendations for the retirement of the
greenbacks and the extension of the
national banking system. Several of
the Democratic leaders who differ
with the president on the financial
question refused to express their
opinions for publication.
The Republicans of the senate do
not approve the message so far as
it concerns finances 1t matters not
whether they be silver men or not,
they all have something to say
against it. Many senators expressed
the opinion that the message was
disappointing because it did not pro-
vide a method for raising revenue.
All of the Republicans who are
known as sound money men were
especially disappointed on account
of this feature of the measure. The
silver men were, of course, very en-
phatic in their disapproval of the
presidents views on silver. For the
most part, however, the Republicans
spoke in tones of approval of the
position of the president regarding
| foreign affairs, but more especially
what he said about Venezuela. The
silver Democrats had very little to
say regarding the message, and it
was for the most part disappoint-
ment for them. There was a general
impression in the senate that the
proposition Of the president to re-
tire the greenbacks would not be
successful.

SUCCESSOR TO GEN. POE.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 2.-On the rec
ommendation of Gen. Craighill, chief
of engineers, the secretary of war to-
day directed Maj. j. c.. Post, corps of

ACTION IN WALLER,S CASE.
Kansas COngressmenW Will Call for
the Correspondence.


WASHINGTON, Dec. 3.-The Kansas
delegation in congress is determined to
leave nothing undone to secure the re-
lease of eX-Consul John L. Waller
from Imprisonment in France. After
the presidents message had been read
this afternoon the entire delegation of
senators and members, including Re-
publicans and Populists, held a meet
ing to decide on their course of ac-
ton. 1t was resolved to push a reso-
luton in both houses calling on the
president for all the papers and cor
respondence in the case. Several men,
bers thought that this resolution should
be accompanied by one stating it to be
the view of congress that the president
should take immediate action, and such
a resolution may be decided upon at
future meeting.
From the information at hand the
members took exception to President
CleVeland'S S view that the correspond
ence with France upon the matter is
progressing satisfactorily. The only
question raised was whether or not the
reply to the resolution calling for
papers should be awaited before more
vigorous steps were taken. Represent
ative Miller, from whose district Wal
Ter was appointed to his consulate, was
empowered to draw the resolution, and
he had conference regarding it to-
night with Mr.. Hit, the probable chair
man of the committee on foreign af-
fairs. Representative Curtis, of Kan
sas, has received many petitions call
ing for strong action in the Waller
case, which he will present to the
house

272 bills and 16 resolutions introduced

American shipping and American ship
building, and general bills to amend
the laws relating to navigation and to

WASHINGTON, Dec. 3.-The ses-

members until the conclusion of the
reading, when several Democrats
created a slight demonstration. When
it was finished the house Immediate
