Another indiana whiteoap outrage.

EVANSVILLE Ind. Jan. 9.-Word has
been received that Cannelton, in Perry
county, is disturbed over "a whitecapping.
The trouble grew out of the attentions Of
a farmer named Taigolp to Maggie O'Neill,
the daughter of neighboring farmer.
Taigolp is a Protestant and O'Neill is a
Catholic, and the difference in religion
was decided objection to O'Nein He
ordered Taigolp to stay away from his
farm, but the latter failed to heed the
warning. Sunday night Taigolp was
awakened, and four masked men took him
from the house, tarred and feathered him
and whipped him numerically.

FLoRIDA's losses in oranges and other
fruit crops in consequence of the recent
cold wave are reported as enormous, and
will almost certainly be followed by a
period of depression and hardship among
the fruit-growers of that state. In some
districts not merely the crops, but the or
ange trees as we'll, have been destroyed,
thus involving great expenditures of time
and money in replacing the ruined
orchards. As the time required to bring
an orange grove into bearing condition is
approximately ten years, it is easy to
understand that any widespread destruc-
tion of the trees by the recent wintry
weather must inevitably result in a
serious setback to Florida's most impor
tant industry.

TIIN ALBANY HOLOCAUST
The Search for Bodies in the Ruins
Of the Delavan House.
EIGHT MANGLBD OORPsBs FOUND

OF These Only Two Have Been Recognized,
and These by Articles of Clothing-The
Victims Evidently suffocated While Sleep
ing-The Fire Started in a Pile of Rubbish.
ALBANY, Jan. 9.-The charred and black
ened remains of eight victims of the Della
van house fire have been found in the
ruins. OF the few remnants of bodies, in
the shape of leshless bones and mangled
trunks, there was no possible means of
Identification were it not for the almost
extraordinary fact that near the almost
totally consumed fragments of human be-
ings were found remnants of clothing that
in two cases led to recognition. Those so
identified were Simon Myers, the coffee
man, identified by his vest, which lay near
the iron cot on which he slept, and Agnes
Wilson, lluttering bit of whose brown
and black dress served as a guide to the
identity of the poor mangled fragment
that could hardly be called body.
The remains of the eight bodies discov-
cred are yet in the ruins. Two of them
were discovered together on a mattress at
the northeast corner of the excavation, but
the upper part of them were pinned under
some heavy iron bars on which rested a
of releasing them was not accomplished
when darkness compelled the men to de-
sist from their labors. The other body was
discovered when it was too dark to remove
it, All the bodies were discovered within
a space of about twelve feet square, in the
cellar Immediately under the hotel kitchen
and bake house, and at the point where
the staircase from the servants attic ter
minated.
The staircase, wide enough only for one
person to barely pass another, was evil
IDENTIFY as bad a flue as the elevator shaft,
and escape was out of the question for
either those in the attic or those in the Gel
! lar, and the fact that nearly all of the
| bodies have been found on beds leads to
the supposition that they were suffocated
| while sleeping.
The search is being continued today AT
| the investigation into the causes of the
fire last night, it was learned that it
started in pile of rubbish about twelve
feet from the elevator shaft, and that an
attempt was made to put it out, but it
spread too quickly, and the engineer and
| those with him had to fly.

II Rings True.

DR.. Shaw's Review of Reviews deals
with the disputed boundary question
between Great Britain and Venezuela in
a way that appeals to the patriotism OF
every American citizen. 1t is plain that
England is trying on one pretext and
another to get larger foothold upon
this western continent. Her refusal at
first to recognize the authority of Mica
ragua over the Mosquito territory, and,
above all, her attempts to get away part
of Venezuela's lands on the pretext Of
adjusting tie boundary line between
the little republic and British Guiana,
are so insidious that they have escaped
general notice in this country.
DIR. Shaw's editorial will enlighten
us. He says the simple fact is that
Englani'has not the shadow of a claim
to any territory west of the Essequibo
river She has gradually stolen the coast
line as far as the Orinoco and has set
up a claim to vast and rich interior re-
gious which ten years ago she admitted
to belong to Venezuela. He appeals tc
Americans to insist on the maintenance
of the Monroe doctrine and says fur
ther:
| If there was ever n sound reason for the con
| vening Of a pan American congress- there
exists a reason today in the circumstances O
this dispute between an American republic
and a great European power which is coolly
| annexing American territory and fortifyinl
each new strip Of stolen ground. 1t is tint
for the American republics to inform England
that America is neither Turl1estan nor India
and that the methods by which Russia ant
| England are gradually appropriating the who'll
of Asia will not be tolerated on this side of th
| Atlantic. Nor is America in the stage Of orig
| inal discovery and colonization. England
| France and Germany may carve up Africa t,
suit themselves, and the United States will
| give itself small concern. But England's habi
Of conquest and of disregard for the rights anC
| claims of feeble folk who cannot protect them
selves must eliminate the western hemispher,
from it's future field of operations.

THERE oughy to be a general agreement
among Congressman of both parties to
reserve, as far as possible, the misc -ievous
and dangerous action of the last session
The people have some right 10 be heard.
There is no room to doubt the meaning Of
their verdict They have decided that
Congress ought to go no further in the di-
rection marked out by its action and its
committees at the first session, and it is
clearly their wish that its action. should
be as far as possible reversed. There
ought to be no feeling of hesitation on
the part of the Democratic majority to
prevent ready submission to the will of
the people in this matter. 1t is their
government. The Democratic party has
had ample opportunity to test its theories
and has given such expression to its
theories as it saw fit, and the people with
out hesitation condemn the course it has
chosen thus far.

AT last we learn from President Cleve-
lands own lips, or rather from his own
pen, that he has abandoned his cherished
in ention of restoring Lilluokalani to her
shattered throne. His words, written as
long ago as last August, and just now
published, contain an absolute denial of
the least present or future aid or en-
couragement" on his part "to restore any
government heretofore existing in the
Hawaiian Islands" This is said with Mr..
Cleveland's characteristic lack of direct
ness and perspicuity, but its meaning is
fairly plain. The statement forms part
of an unofficial communication made by
him to a committee of royalists who
Y sited Washington last summer. Their
reason for keeping quiet about it is plain;
but why did the President take the same
course

The national house of representatives
has passed bill for the purchase of
Shiloh battle-ground, a tract of 5000
acres. 1t will be turned into beautiful
national park, trimmed and adorned
and kept green in memory of those who
fell there 1t has been objected that
these backgrounds of the civil war
ought to be left alone and allowed to
drop out of remembrance, so as not TO
perpetuate the thought of the struggle
between north and south. Not so, The
feelings that engendered the strife have
passed away utterly. Northern and
southern men will meet as brothers upon
the soil once soaked with blood. The
backgrounds will serve as reminders
that the war is fought out and north
and south are Zone and inseparable,

1t may give satisfaction to some peo.
pie until they recall the cause Of it
the fact that the amount annually paid
out in pensions is steadily going down,
The amount paid last year was $l30,
804, 461. That was over $25, 600, 900
less than the appropriation, Part Of
the decrease is accounted for by the fact
that soldiers orphan children are now
to great extent past the pension age
But the Thought comes with shadow
of melancholy that the chief cause is the
constantly increasing death rate of the
old boys. The ranks have begun to
thin and close up.

WHY Didn't They?

Noperson ever succeeded in doing any
thing past common that there were not
dozens of people who declared they
could have done the same thing better
than he did if they had only had the
"chanoe " If man has by shrewdness,
industry or even unscrupulousness &C
cumulated a fortune, wagging heads
will bob and wagging heads will say:
"I knew him when he hadn't a second
coat to his back. l had just as much
sense as he did, and some thought
was a good deal smarter. If justice was
done, 1 would be in his shoes, but here
l am. He's riding in his carriage,
though he's nobody, not half so good as
l am. "
The employee often thus regards his
employer. Thousands of men think they
