FOSTER ON CANDIDATES,
Says Harrison Is Making Nc
Effort for the Nom
inatiOn.
The Indiana Delegation Will Go tt
the Convention Without
Any Pledge.

NEW YORK, N. Y, July "a Wash
ington special to the Press says:
John w. Foster, who has Just returned
from his fruitful mission in China, has lost
no time since his arrival in learning the
political conditions. As Secretary of State
under the Harrison administration he
naturally is in close touch with the ex-
President, and has availed himself of the
earliest opportunity to discover what the
prospects are of return to the White
House of his former chief.
In the course of his hurried journey
across the continent he had an opportunity
to meet the political lieutenants of the ex-
President, and his views of the conditions
are therefore of interest. He said to-day
that he did not regard ex-President Harri-
son as in any way candidate for another
term.
~ do not know" he said, chow the In
diana delegation will stand. OF course, if
Mr.. Harrison were a candidate they would
go to the convention pledged TO him, for
they are loyal to his interests and would
rejoice to see him in the White House
again. But Mr.. Harrison is not candi-
date. He is making no effort for the noml-
nation.
"If it comes to him it must be through
the general voice of the Republican party,
and any movement for his denomination
could not properly secure its impetus from
his own State.
"If the feeling throughout the party in
favor of Mr.. Harrison should be so strong
as to make it evident that the general de-
sire was for his denomination, then, of
course, the delegation from Indiana would
gladly fall in line, SO that as matters now
stand, with no candidate from their own
State, think the Indiana delegates will
go to the convention without any pro-
nounced preference. Some of them will
be for Allison, some for Mckinley, others
for Reed, if the inclinations of the Repub-
licans in the State are to be taken as an
indication of their probable action"

INHERITED VICIOUsNEss
His Mother Claims She Is
Responsible for His
Crimes.
STOLE FROM HER HUSBAND.
Went Through All the Brain Sensa-
lions of Burglar Before the
Boys Birth.

PHILADELPHIA, Pa, July 8. =
Jimmy" Logue. the noted all-round
crook, whose reputation extends all over
the county, is still in Moyamensing Prison,
where he is detained as witness in the
case against young Cutair for the murder
of Johanna Logue. 1t is now learned that
Mrs. Jennie Sullivan, the nurse of his
mother, who died recently in st. Louis, is
coming with papers to secure a pardon for
Logue on the ground that his criminal
tendency is altogether due to parental in
1uences. Logue does not expect the par
don, as he is simply detained as witness.
The principal document, which Mrs
Sullivan is reported to be bringing to this
city, is letter from Mrs. Logue to her
son, an which, after telling him of the
sorrow he had caused her, the dying
woman wrote:
Neither our folks nor you have ever
known the reason which I believe to have
been your ruin. They know your father
and myself to have been respectable and
honest.

feel hard toward you, for it is now my firm
belief that l, myself, your poor old mother,
am responsible for your bad and unlawful
habits.
Just before you were born, your father
was drinking much more than was good
for him, and would spend all his wages in
drink if he had an opportunity. l found
it very hard to get any money from him for

like thief gone through his pockets and
taken what money / found there. Then he
had hot temper, and was always afraid
when I would be picking his pockets that
he would wake and find me doing it.
"Thus went through all the brain sem
sations of daring burglar, even such as l
am informed you have become. Shortly
after that you were born, and firmly be-
lieve you came into the world a thief
owing to that crime-like though necessary
practice of mine. Your ever affectionate
mother, MARY LoGUE."
Logue's record is probably unsurpassed
in the history of crime, for the number of
burglaries, frauds and thefts he has per-
petrated throughout the country.

DIES IN A TURKISH JAIL.
An American Tourist Placed
Under Arrest Without
Cause.
The Hardships He Is Made to En-
dure End His Life While
Still Captive.

NEW YORK, n. Y, July 9.-An Ameri-
can gentleman who returned to this city
on Saturday from the Orient brought in
formation of the arrest and death of an
American citizen in Eastern Turkey, in
the early part of April last. The arrest
was made without warrant of law and
death, induced by the hardships endured,
occurred in Turkish prison.
The victim was j. Weber and be pos
sessed a passport issued at the United
States legation in Constantinople short
time before his arrest. He was travelling
in Western Asia Minor and was at the
time of his apprension on railroad train
at Eski Shur. He was arrested, but was
unable to make himself unders tood and
the local officials affected to discredit his
passport.
The prisoner was forced to walk from
Eski Shur to Brusi, five days journey.
He became i'll and was transferred to a
springless cart, in which he was joited
about until Brusi was reached. There he
was thrust into jail, and in few hours he
died
In speaking of the present condition of
Turkey the gentleman said:
Every one who has anything to do with
der suspicion, but matters are gradually
assuming the condition which puts all
Armenians in the line of opposition to the
Government and they no longer strive to
keep their feelings to themselves. While
on shipboard crossing the Black Sea one of
the wealthiest and most influential
Armenian merchants was one of my fell
low passengers. He talked in the most
radical fashion about the oppression of the
Turks. | warned him that he might be
talking to Government spies and that he
had better be more guarded in the express
sion of his views. He replied that he
would be robbed and despoiled Of his all
in few years any way and he felt that the
end might come early as we'll as late.
'Such is the absolute despair manifested
by all in that unfortunate land. Perhaps
the sentiment against the Americans on
the part of the officials OF the Ottoman en-
pire is best shown by recent edict of
the Sultan which forbids any subject of
the empire TO visit the United States"

EVERY TRAIN CROWDED.
Reception Committees Kept
Busy Receiving the Ar
rivals.
GAY IN CRIMSON AND WHITE.
Streets of the City Beautifully Dec
Grated In the ColorS Of the
Order.

BOSTON, MASS, July 9.-What might
be called the spray thrown in advance of
the great waves of the Christian Endeav-
orers struck Boston to-day in the shape OF
detached delegates, who came in by the
regular trains. Among the stragglers was
party of nearly 200 Nebraskans, who
reached the union station this forenoon.
Most of the Endeavorers, however, came
in singly or in groups of two or three, and
they kept the reception committee on the
Jump, for few of them knew anything
about the city or where they were to go.
Three hundred Michigan delegates
reached the Albany station shortly after
noon. On the Chicago special, which was
due at the Albany station at O'Clock,
there were about fifty delegates, chiefly
from Chicago. The Chicago and Cincin-
natl express, which arrived at 9:45 last
evening. brought more than fifty delegates
from Michigan and Pennsylvania. On the
10 20 train from the West yesterday morn
ing five Idaho delegates arrived and were
directed to the Clarendon-street Church,
which is to be their headquarters.
There was also a small party from
Indiana, but they proceeded Immediately
to Newton, where they were to be enter
tanned by personal friends. Three Illinois
delegates also came in on this train.
AS the visitors enter the city they cannot
fail to be delighted at the beautiful deco
rations of the nations. In one or two
cases these approach the superb; the Ma
tional colors intermingled finely with the
crimson and white-the Christian En-
deavor eolors. Upon many of the great
building of the city, the homes of Boston's
thrifty and enterprjsing people, are seen
outward decorations which have never
been surpassed in elaborate arrangement
even on political occasions or National
holidays. From roof to sidewalk many of
these buildings are hung with the red and
white, while notices and inscriptions bid
the visitors welcome. In the windows of
the shops throughout the city the presence
of the visitors is recognized both in deco
rations and in the arrangement of goods
displayed for sale. The decorative effect
in these windows is exquisite in the ex-
treme.

TO FIGHT WITH DYNAMITE
A Shipload of the Explosive
Ready to Start for
Cuba.
Will Be Dropped In the Camp of the
SpaniardS by Means of Minia-
ture Balloons.

NEW YORK, N. Y, July 9.-"Our dy-
Mantle expedition is to start in about ten
days." SAID the secretary of the Cuban Club
of Harlem to a reporter tonight. "The
recent action of the Spanish Government
will force the Cubans' hand sooner than
was intended. According to the plan oil
campaign agreed on in May, guerrilla war
tara was to be kept up until the close Oh
the yellow fever season in the autumn.
Then large bodies of troops were to attack
all along the line.

start from near Perth Amboy, New Lon
don or Philadelphia / cannot tell. We
shall have about $50 men ready to embark
on sailing vessel. We shall not carry a
large supply of arms and ammunition
The feature will be dynamite. We propose
to send couple of expert engineers by an
other boat few days ahead, so that they
will be on the island ready to cooperate
when the dynamite arrives.
I'VE shall carry lot of Fourth of July
balloons to be used in new and startling
way for war purposes. These balloons are
propelled by the fumes of burning alcohol
They can easily be kept aaoat ten or fifteen
minutes, according to the size of the sponge
and the amount of alcohol in the sponge
when lighted.
"One of these toy balloons will carry three
to five pounds of dynamite. By starting
the balloon on the windward side of 8
town the current will easily carry it high
enough above the buildings to drop the
dynamite among the Spaniards and blow
up their works.

will be attended with no peril and will be
sure to work terrible destruction in the
enemy's towns. No matter how the wind
may blow, we shall be on the right side Of

directly over the point to be destroyed
and the amount of alcohol will be adjusted
to drop the dynamite exactly where we
want it to fall.
Suppose we are on the west side of Q

blowing from the west, al 4 o'clock in the
morning we can start three or four of these

dynamite, making twelve or fifteen pounds

chance to survive the dynamite would be
glad to be taken prisoners, even by the
most desperate Cubans. Death by the
machete would be far preferable to being
torn to pieces by dynamite. When we
drop our explosives into forts the air will
be black with flying masonry and missiles
far more destructive than grape and can.

INJURY TO THE DEFENDER.
The Flyer Partially Disabled
While on Her Second
Trial Trip.
Steel Piping Twisted Out OF Shape
by the Strain of Carrying
the Sails.

PROVIDENCE, R. l., July 9.-The De-
fender strained her strengthening yester-
day while on her second trial trip off the
south end of Prudence Island.
When she arrived at her anchorage in
Bristol harbor it was discovered that the
two steel pieces of piping that are bolted
from the angle iron deck braces to the
bilge brace stringers of angle iron were
bent and twisted out of shape on account
OF the great strain they were subject to
in carrying the sails. 1t is likely that she
will not have another trial before Satur-
day next, as the rigging will be again set
up this week.
All information regarding the sail area
of the Defender has been and is carefully
guarded.

THE WOMAN ON THE WHEEL.
She Has Not Been Condemned by En-
President Harrison.

She Has Not Been Condemned by En-
President Harrison.
NEW YORK, n. Y, July "a special
to the Recorder from Indianapolis says:
General Harrison to-day was questioned
regarding his reported statement that he
was against the woman cyclist. He spoke
with some warmth, saying:
81 have never told any newspaper man
that was opposed to women riding the
wheel. Many of my women friends and
neighbors here in Indianapolis ride the
wheel and ride it well. I consider it q
health-giving exercise when not carried to
an extreme, but it is one that may be at
tended with some danger to careless
rider
my daughter, Mrs. Mckee, is at Sara
toga with her son, Benjamin Mckee, and
both ride; new wheels were shipped to them
last week. ! have frequently spoken to
friends on the subject, but have not said
what is said in the story printed in New
York. do not believe a mans opinion
would go far if it were against so popular a
form of amusement"
The friends of General Harrison are
laughing at the attempt to make political
capital out of the subject. The story
originally started from letter from a
citizen of Dana, Indiana, where General
Harrison was recently squirrel hunting.
In this letter the Dana citizen says Gen
eral Harrison said he thought the woman
in question was giving very unpleasant
exhibition.

Petty Grimes.
NEW YORK, N. Y, July Sword was
received at police headquarters to-day from
the authorities at San Francisco that
Charles Schlesinger had been arrested in
that city. He is wanted here.
A year ago he opened big clothing
store at Broadway and Eighth streets.
The establishment was burned out. Two
months ago Schlesinger took troupe of
pickaninnies to Europe. He left them
there. Two weeks ago he went 10 the
jewelry establishment of Henry Levy Il
Co., in Maiden lane, and procured $500
worth of diamonds to sell on memoran-
dunn. He either pawned or sold the dia-
monds and kept the money. Then he fled
from the city.
The detectives of this city learned he
had gone to San Francisco and the police
of that city were notified to arrest him.
Detective Sergeant Herdleburg will leave
for San Francisco in few days with
requisition papers to bring him back.

synopsis of the reports telegraphed to Chi
cago are as follows:
The temperature conditions of the week
have been generally favorable throughout
the country. Corn has made very rapid
growth during the week, and, except in
Michigan, the general outlook for this
crop is excellent. Arkansas reports the
largest crop in years, and in Kansas, Ne
braska, Iowa Illinois and Missouri the out
look is most promising. The general out
look for spring wheat continues flattering.
The winter wheat harvest is practically
completed and threshing continues gem

Fiti6usters Not -ictire on the Florida
Coast,


WASHINGTON, D. c., July 9.-The
cruiser Atlanta, which arrived at Port au
Prince Saturday night directly from New
York under orders to cruise in Cuban
waters to prevent the violation of neutral
ity laws, left that port yesterday for Sam
tiago de Cuba. The instructions of Cap
tain Cromwell, her commander, directed
him to cruise to the south OF Cuba, per-
forming duty similar to that of the Ra-
leigh on the north of Cuba
Since the return of the Raleigh to Key
West on July Secretary Herbert has
been considering the advisability of reliey-
ing her with the Atlanta, as Captain Mer-
rill Miller's reports show conclusively that
little or no filibustering is actually con-
templated by residents of Florida and that
the activity on the part of the friends of
the revolutionists there consists almost
entirely of talk. 1t is probable that had
the Atlanta stayed a day or two longer at
Port au Prince she would have received
orders to proceed directly to Key West and
let the Raleigh come north. The latter
vessel has been in southern waters only
twenty days, however, and it is likely that
she will remain two weeks longer. After
that it will be the policy of the department
to keep only one warship on guard to sup
plement the revenue steamers.
Admiral Bunce will probably success
lively order vessels of his command to
patrol Florida waters for thirty days each.
