DOES 1T MEAN WAR

President Oleveland's message on the
Venezuelan question was received with
enthusiasm by the members OF all poll
ticsl parties in both Houses OF Congress
yesterday, showing that in the present
grave situation Of affairs between this
country and Great Britain the whole
country Is united in its support of the
government in its determination to up
hold the Monroe doctrine as applied to
the questions at issue.
The tone Of Lord Sslisbury's reply
leaves little to hope for from arbitra-
tion in the boundary dispute between
Grea. Britain and Venezuels, and it is
equally apparent. from the tenor Of the
Presidents message, that the United
States will not stand idly by while the
frst-nsmed country boldly sppropriates
large share of the territory Of the
Southern Republic. What all OF this
excitement may lead to it is hard to de
rermine.
Both nstions belong to race that
while long In coming to a decision on
grave and important questions. are slow
TO recede from q position once taken.
The action OF the British at Corinto
showed that the English government
is strongly disposed to take issue with
the United States In its claims for the
Monroe doctrine, and the tone of the
press OF both countries has for months
been lacking in that cordislity which
charao terizsd their relations for some
yenrs prevlouu.
That there is strong felling OF jsal-
ousy existing in the minds of the Eng.
lish people towards this country ia evil,
dent from the outbursts of ill-humor
in the comments of the British press
upon the Dunraven incident, but in the
interests OF humanity and for the sake
of civilization 1t Is hoped the crisis will
be passed without the occurrence of &C.
tuAl hostilities, and that instead of cut
ting each others throats Englishmen
and Americans may unite on plan for
turthering the interests of oppressed
Christians In the barbsrous countries
of the East, and in carrying the blessings
aid benhts Of religion to the benighted
regions Of the world.

WASHINGTON, Dec. II The message
Of President Cleveland to Congress
transmitting the correspondence be
tween Secretary Olney ana Lord Sails
bury relative to the Venezuelan boun-
dairy dispute, created real sensation In
Warrington today. Although the m.
ture Of Secretary Olney's vigorous COM
munication and of Lord Salisbury's
answers had already been actually
understood.
The message was listened to with In.
tense interest. Nowhere was there q
voice lifted in dissent of the doctrine,
as Ind down by the President, but, on
the contrary, there was an outburss Of
patriotic applause, which must be graft
tying to the Chief Executive.
Ga the streets the matter was dis
cussed. In the great hall of the pension
building the employees gathered aud

At the White House messages poured
In from every quarter of the country
congratulating the President upon his
message.
The matter, of course, was of tho
greatest interest in diplomatic circles
and they hope q settlement will be
reached without serious trouble. Min
lister Andrade, of Venezuela. secured a
copy OF the message early in the day
and cabled 1t to his government and it
is felt that It will be the signal for an
enthusiastic demonstration there.

SECRETARY oARL1sLE,s REPORT.

Secretary Csrlisle's annual report is
an optismitic document based on q
rather uncertain future. According to
his figures there will BIO surplus OF

1897; but deficit for the year 1895 OF
$40, sos ,223, and for 1896. one of SIT, OOO,-
600. 1t is apparent at q glance that the
predicted surplus of 1897 is subject to too
many contingencies to make it by any
means certain of realization. On the
whole. the Secretary seems so we'll sat-
ished with the workings of the new
tariff that he makes no recommends
lions for any legislstion to increase the
revenue. He follows in the footsteps
OF the President in his recommends
tions for tho retirsmen. of the green

of bonds for their redemption.
To supply any deficiency of the cur
rency from this retiremens he would
empower ths national banks to in

would allow them to establish branch

SHOT DOWN BY A POSSE,
Close of the Career of a Ken.
tuckian Who Killed His Wife
and Her Friend.
Taking Refuge in Hut, He Fought the
Pursuing Officers Until
Slain.

CYNTHIANA, KY, Dec. IA terrible
tragedy is reported from the adjoining
county of Bracken, wherein two persons
were killed and two others seriously shot
by Orville Eals, who was himself killed by
a posse after he had murdered his wife.
Eals was farmer living near Brown
ingsvllle, and his wife deserted him for
John Fields, tenant on the place. Eals
induced his wife to return, and also Fields,
whom he shot on Tuesday, death ensuing
the next day.
Eals defied arrest, and since then posse
has been endeavoring to locate him. Eals
was well armed, and took refuge in hut.
A large posse came upon the hut last
night. When an attempt was made to
attack it Eals fired upon them from
within.
1t was deemed best to wait for daylight,
and to-day at dawn the attack was made.
VIII en- the rush was made from the heavy
timber Eals began firing. A man named
McCombs fell mortally shot, dying liz a
few minutes, and two men named Wells
and Herbert were seriously shot.
The storming party effected an entrance
to the hut and horrible sight met their
gaze. On the floor lay the mutilated body
of Mrs. Eals almost nude and covered with
ugly wounds, while nearby lay bloody
hatchet, with which she had been killed.
The posse had fired fusillade of shots
as it entered the house and Eals was
kille d. The bodies of Eals and his wife
were buried bv the posse without the
formality of an inquest.

SYRACUSE, n. Y, Dec. 2.-The New
York and Philadelphia express on
the Delaware, Lackawanna and Western
Railroad which left Syracuse at 0:10 P. NJ.
was wrecked half a mile north of Preble
station, twenty-six miles south OF this city,
at 1880 o'clock this morning. The train,
which consisted of one baggage car, one
mail car, two day coaches and sleeper
was running at the rate of fifty miles an
hour when the wreck occurred.
The siding at Preble had been opened to
allow a freight train to get out of the way
of the express, and the switch was left
open. The train crashed into the freight
cars on the siding, completely telescoping
three of them. The engine and tender of
the express car were completely demol-
ished, and the engineer, George Young, of
Syracuse, was instantly killed. Webster
Roof of Syracuse, the fireman, was taken
from beneath the wreck of the engine and
died soon afterward. At least dozen
passengers are badly injured.
No sooner had the wreck occurred than
the baggage car, which was reduced to
kindling wood in the collision, caught fire
from the engine. The panic-stricken pas
sengers had hardly time to get from the
cars before the whole train was in blaze.
The scene of the wreck is half mile
from any farmhouse, and the passengers
had to fall back on their own resources to
assist themselves and their injured COM
panions. There were about fifty passen-
gers on the train, including the members
of the "Bowery Girl" theatrical company.
Willing hands went to work to rescue the
bodies of the engineer and fireman, which
were in danger of being cremated by the
flames of the baggage car.
Fireman Roof was found in dying con-
dition, pinned down by part of the engine
cab. He was taken out and died soon
afterward.
The engine was literally smashed to
fragments by the collision.
At 1:30 o'clock the whole train is in
flames. A wrecking- train, with physicians
on board, has been sent out from Syracuse
1t is not certain that the engineer and fire
man are the only ones killed.
The body of Engineer Young has not
been found, as it is covered by the wreck
of the engine.
1t develops that the wrecking of the
| train was undoubtedly meditated and not
due to carelessness in leaving open the
switch. The switch was found locked open
after the wreck occurred.
1t is impossible to get fuller particular;

TWO MEAN ROBBERS HANGED.
After Very Harsh Treatment of an Aged
Man They We're Pursued and
Put to DEATH

NEW YORK, n. Y, Dec. IA special
from Alexandria, Va, says: Alexander
McClintook, an aged citizen of Fairfax,
was decoyed into the woods near that
place on Friday by Henry Poss and
Thomas Henry, who then knocked him
down and bound and gagged and robbed
him.
After their departure the old man, with
his hands still tied behind him, made his
way to the railroad station and reported
the outrage, and soon afterward the per-
petrators were arrested here.
This afternoon officers from Fairfax
came here and left with the prisoners for
the latter place, which is fifteen miles
from telegraph and telephone communica-
ton.
A Fairfax man. just in tonight, says
that about half way out party of armed
men took Poss and Henry from the officers
and hanged them. The report, though as
yet unconfirmed, is believed.
