HAVE A STRANGE DISEASE.

The Crew of the Chicago Suffer From a
Malady Which the Doctors Can't Relieve.
New YORK, June "a The surgeons at
the navy hospital in Brooklyn are puz-
zled by peculiar malady prevalent
among the sailors who arrived on the
Chicago during her last cruise.
Although some of the men in Brooklyn
have been under treatment for six or
seven weeks their condition has but lit
tie changed The same high temperature,
giddiness and rheumatic pains in the
joints which characterized the disease
when first contracted are still exper-
fenced.
The doctors do not know what to call
It. Some say it is typhus fever, while
others give it different names.

THE BOY WHO WON.
Story of Young Man Who Goes to West
Point From Kansas.

Speaking of the stuff out of which
western Kansas boys are built, the Nor
ton Champion tells this story: "John
Mccullough of this county seems to be
the hero of the hour Some time ago
he tried to borrow few dollars of par
ties in this city to defray expenses to
Downs where he designed to undergo
competitive examination for an appoint
ment to the military academy at West
Point, such place being soon due this
district
He failed to secure the loan. Nothing
daunted he drove in a gig to Downs,
camped out. underwent the examination,
and was given first place over the eight
applicants. John is poor farmer lad
but, by Caesar! such is the metal to make
soldiers

.GUGEL'S HANDSOME BOAT
He Built It in = Room and Then Couldn't
Get 1t Out.

Get 1t Out.
There is a story on Physical Director
Gugel of the Y. NJ. C. A. which is too
good to keep, though be has attempted
to pledge the few who have heard it to
silence.
Mr.. Gugel concluded last week that he
would build boat It was TO be one of
the lightest craft afoat Its ribs were
to be of the lightest wood, covered with
canvas. and with only room for the row.
or. 1t was to be a racing boat
In casting about for a place in which
to build the boat he selected one of the
unused class rooms of the association
and he at once commenced the construc-
ton. He worked very industriously for
two or three days, until the vessel was al
most completed, when Secretary Larrigo
happened to GO into the room one day.
''That is very nice boat" said the
! secretary, and Gugel felt thrill of pride.
What are you going to do with it?" in
quired Larrigo.
81 am going to put it in the river, of
course"
"How are you going to get it out of the
room?"
SWELL, I'll declare" said Gugel, 81 had
not thought of that"
He then found that the boat would not
go through either the door or windows,
and as he busted himself taking it apart,
the bystanders said he looked very much
as if he would like to swear, but he
didn't, being good Y. M. c. A. man.

There Is Waiting for Developments Both
Among Buyers and ellers.
CLEVELAND, Nov. 1.-The Iron Trade
Review says:
Buying and selling interests in all de-
partments Of the iron trade are scan
ming closely the developments of each
week. On the one side, the drawing
out Of the present interval of quietness,
week after week, is taken as reason
enough for further waiting, the view of
buyers being that the market will
eventually fall off and that large con-
tracts made now would be a
leap in the dark The waiting
attitude is noticeable among buyers
Of foundry iron. Furnace men have an
opportunity to know that consumption
is heavy, and that there is an urgency
about shipping orders indicating that
very little iron is being carried in
foundry yards. They affirm that fur
mace yards are kept clean, and are there
fore in the position that when present
contracts run out, as many will in the
next two months, there will be stimuli
taneous effort to cover that will take
take prices even above the present

BISMARCK. NORTH DAKOTA, FRIDAY NOVEMBER / 1895
NORTHWESTERN MILLING.
all the Mills Continue to Grine a
Full Capac.ty.


Full Capacity.
MINNEAPoLIS, Nov 1.-The North
western Miller gives the flour output
at Minneapolis last week as 266,37
barrels, against 273, ,9O5 the week before,
and 243, Las in 1894. At Superior and
Duluth the output was 100, ,09O barrels last
week, against .S4,S20 a week ago, and
"a, 845 in 1894.
All the mills at Minneapolis continue
to full capacity and production will
probably SHOW an increase of 10000
barrels OF over this week. The aggre-
gate sales last week ran slightly ahead
of the production Nearly all sold their
output, and some zaid they could have
doubled their transactions at fair prices,
could they have seen any way Of getting
the flour out before the close Of naviga-
ton. All are literally supplied with
orders, and, with an advance in freights
in prospect, there isa disposition to ac-
cept orders with a good deal of caution.
Beside holding considerably stiffer at
Minneapolis, not few mills are asking
for an advance in the East of 10 cents
per barrel or more.
At Superior Duluth all the mills are
moving at full capacity, and if enough
lake tonnage is available, the output
may show another increase. Both for
eign and domestic markets were good
last week, and it is thought that if the
demand continues, these mills will find
it profitable to run farther into the win
ter than heretofore, provided rail rates
are not prohibitory. There was a fair
demand for feed.

STRONG EVIDENCE OF A MURDER

Chicago Police Find the Rihed Valise of
Minnesotan.
CHICAGO, Nov. 1.-The police of this
city have in their possession a valise
which they believe is all the evidence
that remains Of a murder. The valise
was found at p. m. in the yards of the
Pennsylvania railroad. 1t had been cut
open and rif1ed and whatever of value
that could be made us of by the thieves
had been taken. They left behind,
however, papers to the value Of $65, 900.
These were mostly first mortgages and
bore the name of w. E. Baker, whose
residence is believed to be in Minneapo-
lis. There was also a bank book issued
by the First National bank Of Mime
apols in the name of w. E. Baker.
The Chicago police have notified the
authorities of Minneapolis and Red
wood Falls of their discovery and they
have not yet received any information
that would throw light on the owner Of
the valise

Great Fears Expressed There
Will Be Another Armenian
Massacre.
American Missionaries Asked to
Withdraw in Order to
Prevent 1t.
On the Other Hand Missionaries
Are Said to Be the Only
Check on Kurds.

CoNsTANTINOPLE. Oct. 31.-A sensa-
tion has been caused here by the report
generally believed to be correct. that
three Armenian notabilities, Of Trebi-
zond, including a prominent ecclesias-
tic, are to be executed OH the ground
that they are responsible for the present
rioting there.
According to statements made in
Armenian circles, about 800 Armenians
We're killed during the fighting at Bitlis
with the Turks The loss Of the latter
is said to be trifing.
Advices from Moosh say that the
leading Armenians of that locality have
been comforting with the representative
Turks Of that city and neighborhood as
to the means to be adopted i'll order to
prevent the outbreak there of disorders
similar to those which have occurred
recently in different parts of Armenia
and which have resulted in so much
bloodshed. 1t is added that the
Turks stipulated that the American
missionaries who are distributing relief
to the suffering people Of S;ssoun with
drew from there in three days, other
wise the Turkish notabilities claim they
fear there will be a massacre such as
jus. occurred at Bitlis.
Ask Missionaries to Withdraw.
In view of the critical situation Of
affairs outlined above, the United States
ambassador, Mr. Alexander Terrell, has
advised the American missionaries to
withdraw temporarily from Sassoun.
At the same time Mr.. Terrell has mott
fed the Turkish government that the
United States will hold it response
BILE for the lives of American mission
aries. The United States ambassador
has taken firm stand in the matter,
and nothing will be left undone which
will in any way insure the safety Of the
missionaries. The British charge
d'affaires, the Hon. Mr.. Herbert, has
made representations to the porte Of
nature identical to Mr.. Terrell. The re-
suit is that the government has decided
to
Send Troops to Protect the NIissiona ries.
But here another complication arises.
The Kurds Of Sassoun are only held in
check by the presence there of the mis-
sionaries, fearing to commit excesses in
their presence and they threaten to
plunder the Armenians on the depart
ure Of the missionaries Therefore, in
any case, fresh troubles are feared un-
less the authorities take special meas
ures for the protection Of the Arm enians
The mere presence there of Turkish
troops is far from being sufficient
guarantee against a repetition at Sas-
soun Of the bloodshed which has re-
Gently occurred i'll other parts of Ar,
menia, and nothing but the most ener-
getic action, it is asserted, can avert
serious disturbance.
In view of these facts, the Armenian
patriarch has appealed to the different
embassies here to intervene in time to
prevent another massacre The Turkish
officials, in reply, again assert that all
the recent outbreaks here and in Arme-
MIA are nothing more than the work of
the Armenian secret society, which has
provoked all the riots.

A CHECK TO HIS GAY CAREER.
One of Charles Thorn's Wives Wants
HIM Taken Care of.

CHICAGO, Nov. 1. Mrs. Augusta
Thorn appeared at the Desplains street
police station and asked for a warrant
for her husband, Charles Thorn, whom
she alleges is a bigamist. A year ago
the couple were married and all went
well for three months, when, Mrs
Thorn says, she received word that her
husband had wife in Pittsburg and
another in St. Paul. Mrs Thorn con-
fronted her wayward husband with
what she had learned, and says he con-
fessed and pleaded with her to live
with him, promising to get divorce
from wives Nos. l and 2. Two months
ago Thorn disappeared and his wife
says she has learned he has eloped with
Maggie Strecht. Mrs. Thorn now
wants Charles arrested before he breaks
any more hearts.
