Gen. Miles Says They Are in a Bad COndi-
tion.
WAsHIFGTOE, Dec. 23.-Gen. Miles,
commanding the army, has given out a
statement by request in regard to the
ability of the United States to defend
itself in case of war. He said: 81 have
just returned from an inspection of the
harbors of the southern coast and, like
those of other sections of the country,
1 found them in an entirely defenseless
condition. If war should break out
at the present time all we have
in the south, or, in fact, anywhere
else, with a few exceptions, would
be a lot of obsolete guns on rotten car
riages, which would fall over because
they could not be of any service. We
are in a deplorable state for defense.
There are only three modern high
power guns in position in this coun-
try The general says there would
be no difficulty in getting 1000 900
men, our small army acting as nu-
cleus for other troops.

RELIEF MEASURES.
Two Bills Agreed Upon for the Relief of
the Treasury.

Two Bills Agreed Upon for the Relief of
the Treasury.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 24-Two meas
ures have been agreed upon by repub-
lican mem bers of the house in response
to the call of the president. One of these
will be a tariff bill, to increase the
revenue; the other a financial plan to
maintain the gold reserve and prevent
alleged existing trouble with the
greenbacks. This party plan has been
perfected by two meetings of the repub-
lican members of the ways and means
committee; the first held Saturday
night, with the cooperation of Speaker
Reed and other leaders; the second
yesterday afternoon.
The tariff bill will be entitled, "A
bill to increase the revenues and to
prevent deficits in the treasury" and
will go into effect when signed by the
president, if he signs it, and will remain
in effect until August l, 1898, when,
by its provisions, its operations will
cease. Its items follow: A duty on
wool of 60 per cent. of the Mckinley
law rates; compensatory duty on
wooden goods of 60 per cent. of the Nc
Kinley law rates; duty of go per cent
of the rate Of 1890 on lumber, which
will be from 10 to Is per cent ad valor-
EN-; an increase of 25 per cent. from
the Wilson German act rates on cereal
breadstuffs, dairy products and live
stock, including poultry; horizontal
increase of Is per cent. from the Will
son-Gorman rates on all other sched-
ules. with the provision that in no case
shall the duty exceed the Mckinley
rates, except where the Wilson-Gorman
rates exceed those of the Mckinley
law.
The second bill will provide for two
issues of bonds. The first will be an
unlimited amount of three per cent.
five year coin bonds, to protect the
gold reserve, with the provision that
the currency redeemed by the proceeds
shall not be paid out for current de-
fcits in the revenue unless the expenses
of the government are in excess of the
revenues (Which, it is expected, they
will not be if the first bill is in opera
tom. In addition the second bill will
provide for one year two per cent.
treasury certificates of Indebtedness,
not to exceed $50, 900, 600 in amount,
and to be disposed of at the discretion
of the secretary of the treasury, to
meet current deficits in the revenue.
These are to be offered for sale at the
sub-treasuries and repositories of the
government. 1t is possible also there
may be added to this bill plan to in
crease the currency by authorizing ma
tional banks to issue circulation to the
par value of all the government bonds
deposited by them with the govern
ment as security for their notes.

A MINE DISASTER.

Twenty-four Men Lose Their Lives by aM
Explosion OF Fire Damp.
NASHVILLE, Tenn, Dec. 21-A special
from Chattanooga says. Twenty-four
miners lost their lives yesterday in the
Nelson mine entry No. 10, near Dayton,
Tenn, by an explosion of fire damp.
The explosion was succeeded by
terrific crash, which indicated
that the roof of the passage
through which they had entered had
fallen in. No avenue of escape was left
and there is no possibility that any of
the men will be found alive. The men
are both white and eolored, including
several boys. They entered the mine
to GO to work at seven o'clock vester-
day morning, but nothing of the awful
catastrophe was known until IL o'clock,
when the drivers entered No. 10 found
their way blocked by solid wall of
coal and slate. The Nelson mine has
been won Red for I2 years and the entrv
where the unfortunate miners are en-
tombed ran back more than two miles
from the mouth of the mine.

Satisfaction Among Kansas and Missouri
Congressman Over Their Assignment to
Committees.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 23.-There is gen.
neral satisfaction among the mem bers
from Kansas and Missouri over the
committee assignments. It is freely
conceded that the delegations from the
two states were never in better posi-
ton to serve their constituents in con-
gressional work than under their as
signments. Col. Blue heads, in
position, the members from both
states, being placed on the
committee on appropriations. This is
the second time that a new man has
been placed on that committee in the
history of congress, the first time being
when James Burns, of st. Joseph, was
awarded a similar honor. A place on
that committee is looked upon as being
equal to frst-class Craftsmanship, and
few would exchange it for any chair
manship outside of four committees.

CHICAGO, Dec. pa frightful dyna-

afternoon on section Il of the drainage
canal, about one mile from the town
of bonneville. Two men were in
stantly killed and five fatally and two
seriously injured. The mangled re-
mains of the men killed were removed
to the town of Lockport- The injured
victims were taken to St. Joseph's
hospital at Joliet on the first train
after the accident The men were
preparing blast with dynamite car
tridges-one man holding a drill while
another tapped it gently, forcing the
dynamite down into the hole prepared
by the drill. The blast was almost
ready for firing when blow too hard
or blow too many was given, and the
two men who were preparing the blast
and seven others who were working
close by went up into the air. The
two men killed were literally torn to
pieces, and the others were shockingly

The Man Accused OF Numbering Amos j.
Stillwen Found Not Guilty.
BOWLING GREEN, Mo-, Dec. 23.-The
greatest murder mystery in the history
of Missouri remains unsolved. At six
o'clock Saturday night, in the dimly
lighted court room where DR.. Hearne
has been on trial for the murder of
Amos J. Stillwell for two weeks. a
jury of his peers found him not guilty
and he was formally discharged.
Mrs. Hearne was admitted to bail
in the sum of $4,000 which
was furnished at once by w. T.
Hearne, of independence, Mo, and D.
A. Ball, of Louisiana, Mo. This prac-
tically frees her also, as it swerves the
Indictment, and the chances are that
when the case comes to trial it will be
nolle pressed, though Prosecuting At
torney Heather will not say what ac-
ton he intends to take.

at five o'clock yesterday morning re-
suited in a monetary loss of $4,000.
one mans life and the severe injury of
several others. The fire originated in
Tomany's bakery and quickly spread
to B. c. Cohsn's clothing store and the
Central hotel, entirely destroying
the three structures. The scene in
the burning hotel was an exciting
one. The guests all escaped with
their lives, but saved little else. Eli
Stevens, a servant at the hotel, was
burned to death. S. L. Ritz succeeded
in rescuing woman and three chill
dren and then to save himself had to
jump from fourth-story window. He
is fatally hurt. George w. Blues.

TO Learn PublIc Sentiment.

NEW YORK, Dec. 23.-It is stated on
excellent authority that within the
last few days representatives of the
British government in all the prin-
cipal cities of the United States have
been summoned quietly to go to Wash
ington to see the British minister.
While it is true these consuls do not
have diplomatic powers and it is not
at all likely Sir Julian Pauncefort will
ask advice in any matter of diplomacy.
yet it is believed it is his wish to talk
matters over with them, and ascertain
what the ranl feeling of the American
people is al the present time.
