SILVER IN ENGLAND.
Balfour Has No Great Hopes Of an Inter.
national conference.


London, Aug. 22.-In the house Of
commons the first lord of the treas
ury, Rrigt Hon. A. j. Balfour, re-
plying to Sir John Long, liberal men,
ber from Dundee, who asked whether
he would advise the government to
invite an international conference
on silver said 81 am and always
have been in favor of an information
al agreement, but I have not the
right to pledge my colleagues, and I
do not believe an international agree
ment woule result from an interna-
tional conference.
The Bimetallic league OF England
is showing great activity since the
meeting Of parliament. The prob
ably extravaSent claim is made that
a majority of the new conservative
members are Favorable to bimetallism
It is certain that the movement has
it's chief support from the land hold
ing class, as in Germany, and the
largest proportion OF the new men,
[bers represent that class.
At a meeting last night under the
presidency of Sir William 'Houlds-
worth Il number of other members Of
parliament were present and a parlia-
mentary committee was formed whose
functions shall be to promote an in
ternatonal conference for consider
ing what measurcrs are desirable to
remove or mitigate the evils result
ing from constant fluctuations and
the growing divergence in the rela-
tive values Of gold and silver in &C
cordance with a resolution adopted
by the house in February last.
Perhaps more significant fact is
that the opposing Gold Standard De-
fense association has also redoub]cd
it's efforts in the way OF meeting any
appeals through the press. Many
circulars are being sent broadcast
over the kingdom, setting forth tho
arguments opposed to bimetallism
Nothing can be done, however, b,
the government or by parliament to-
wards the proposed conference be
fore tho winter session, if then.

MOST RARBAROUS.
The Revelations Of an Investigation OF
All Insane Asylum.

Chicago, Aug. 2O.-Thc inyestiga-
tion Of the county commissioners in
to the management Of the Dunning
insane asylum began today. To-
ward the end Of the days sitting
came horrible story that in detail
was more barbarous than the story
Of the Pucick murder. 1t was told
by Er. McGrew, resident physician
Of the Dunning asylum. 1t concern
cd a battle between two madmen,
who had fought the corridor Of ward
two, while Anderson, accessory to
the murder os Puck, was on watch.
These two patients Quarreled over
some silly childish difference. They
came to blows. They tore OF each
others faces and rolled about on the
floor, while Anderson looked on. One
OF them in the frensy Of raving
maniac, set his teeth into the face
OF the other. He bit off his nose and
spat it out on the stone floor Of the
corridor
The maniac with whom this pa
tient was battling, sprang away
from the death grip, fell bleeding to
the floor, saw the flesh torn from his
own face, stuffed it into his own
mouth and che wed his own nose to
pulp and swallowed it. He said it
would make it grow again: and An
dcrson looked on.
While this story was being given
one of the commissioners turned pale
and sickcncd. Jules Adams, one of
the committee, covered her face with
her hands and clutcllcd at the arm Of
the chair. At the end Of the story
somebody whispered to President
Hcaly Of the commissioners: "YOu
said there WAS nothing to invcsti-
gate" Hcaly looked up. His face
was pale and his eyes full of horror.

France Must Answer.

Washington. Aug. 22.-Therc is
good authority for the statement
that a pcremptoly demand will be
made by the United States on France
for the release Of cx. Consul John
Waller Of Tamative 'and that salts
factory indemnity will be required
for his arrest and imprisonment with
a probable request for a commission
to determine Walters rights in Mad
agascar. The discussion Of the case
between American and French diplo-
mats has reached {, point which it is
said there is little else for the
United States to do owing to the fact
that repeated requests for copy OF
the charges and testimony on which
Waller was convicted have not been
furnished by the French government.

Fierce Forest Fires.

Denver, Aug. 2222.-A special to
the News from Spokane. Wash, says:
Rain has been falling at intervals
during the past two days, Temporal
rily killing tile fires in the forest,
but flames have again broken out
afrcsh. Many sprospectors and set
tiers who have been out IN the for
est arrive here dailyand tell thrilling
tales Of being overtaken by the fierce
ness OF the flames. Immense trees
which have stood for centuries sec
cumb to the destoyer. Animals OF
various kinds can be seen flying be-
fore the flames. Priest Lake, in
Northern Idaho, is now surrounded
by flames and the settlers are forced
TO make their escape in boats down
the lake.
Along the Salmon river the miners
have made their way out by trail to
the railroad at Northport, leaving
their effects behind.

Memphis, Aug. 2l.-Hon. W. r..
Carlnack, editor OF the Commercial
Appeal. one Of the delegates from
Tennessee to the recent democratic
silver conference at Washington has
returned. In an interview today, he
said: 1.-The talk Of Hon. II. w. Nor
rson for the presidency by certain
Jealous silver men must be taken as
tentative. Colonel Morrison has a
record OF unbrokcn loyalty to the
cause Of silver reconciliation. but
So had Mr.. Carlisle, Hon. Ilocus T..
Smith, and a number Of othcristates-
men who suddenly began to think
about the question one night, and
rose up converted to gold monomct-
allism the next morning. You can
not depend on records as you once
could, and no more can you pin your
faith to mems loyalty to party plat
forms. Colonel Morrison can get the
votes Of free silver democrats only
upon condition that he climbs upon
the house tops and makes Il few un-
eQuivOcal statements to the Amcri-
can people. The countrys faith III
human nature has had some pretty
severe shocks OF late. and the people
will not 60 it blind for the next cam
paign, but will keep both ears and
eyes wide open. Every candidate
that receives democratic votes must
be running down on the counter, and
no exception can be made in favor Of
William K. Morrison.'

Evidence Showing That Ed O.Brien Is a
Murderer.

Murderer
Great Falls, Aug. 2O.-The coro-
ner, county attorney and others Who
went to the scene Of the shooting Of
Frank Bigbee on Sunday, returned
late last night. The verdict of the
coroners jury is ''that the deceased. ).
Frank Rigbee, came to his death
from two bullets fired from q Win
chester rife in the hands Of Ed j i.
O'Brien without proyocation." ;"
O'Brien, when he testified before
the jury: related about the same
story that he did to the officers when
he gave himself up. He claimed
that he married his wife at Gales
burg. Ill.
Mrs O'Brien testified that she was
married to O'Brien at Maiden,
Mont, but later said she was not his
wife. She said she had been in a
house Of ill fame at Benton under
the name of Minnie Fisher. and af-
tcrWards opened a house at Maiden.
She became acquainted with
O'Brien there and had lived with
him six or seven years. She testified
that O'Bricn was jealous Of Rigbec.
Bigbce came to the house on Sunday
and offered to haul some grain fol
her. She told Bigbce that O'Bricn
had forbidden him the house, but
she thought Bigbce as good man as
O'Brjcn. She further testified that
Bigbee aid not attempt to staE
O'Brien; that the latter shot Bigbcc
as he was getting up from a chair.
She tried TO get the gun away from
O:Bricn, and in the struggle it went
off again.
Bigbee was shot twice in the chest
The balls went clear Though the
body and lodged in the back Of the
chair in which Bigbee was sitting.
County Attorney Freeman brought
the board with the bullet holes with
him. The holes in the board show
that Bigbcc was not standing uE
when the shots were fired.
Edward O'Brien will be arraigncd
tomorrow before Judge Benton on the
charge OF murder in the first degree
O'Brien was yisined at the jail today
and had nothing to say about the

MADE ENEMIES.
The Democratic Nominee for Governor
In kentucky Plcascs Nobody.

The Democratic Nominee for Governor
In Kentucky pleascs Nobody.
Louisville, Aug. .22.-P. Watt Ear-
din and w. O. Bradley, democratic
and republican nominees for governor
held the first series of joint debates
at the big auditorium which was
packed to the doors. Space was
evenly divided between the two par
ties and the audience was thoroughly
representative. The evening debate
had long been anticipated, as Cen
eral Hardin's position was very COM
plcx and his stand was not known.
A strong silver man, he was nomin-
ated by democratic convention that
was overwhelmingly for sound money.
He won the day by personal popu-
larity alone, and when the conyen-
tion adopted a resolution indorsing
the platform of 1892 and endorsing
Cleveland and Carlisle, it was thought
as the party nominee that he would
at least take some middle ground.
Hence the greatest interest was taken
in tonight's first gun Of the
campaign. For over half an
hour General Hardin talked Of the
war, and his hearers became very
weary. Then all of sudden he be-
gan on finances. II am Democrat
lie began, "and with both feet l
stand sqbarely upon the democratic
platform of 1S92-that platform
which says there shall be no dis
elimination between gold and silver
and that the coinage Of each metal
shall be free. I call upon Joe Black
burn, John Rhea, John Atheron, Mr..
McCleary, the democratic press, to
come together. We stand upon the
same platform aud we should make
the fight together"
This coupling Of the names Of the
sound money leaders and the strong
est of the silver men caused q groan
from the sound money men. Their
disappointment was too apparent,
and much of the little applause Gen
eral Hardin got was from the repub-
lican side of the house. General
Hardin then concluded with attack
ing the redublcans for the "crime Of
49," and demanded return to the
times that existed before the demon
etization Of silver. General Hard
ins effort was great disappointment
and 50 much 50 that Herr SchleinitZ,
editor Of the Louisville AnZeiger,
the most influential democratic news
paper south Of the Ohio river, said
that his paper would in the morning
drop either Herr Schleintz or the
democratic nominee for Governor.

"In passing by the criminal court

young buglar suddenly leaped over
the low hand railing, which was then
the only protection to the bridge,

recovering, himself made a bold dash

deputy shcriffs and policemen, and
was finally captured in a barn not far
from Lincoln park. When they
brought him back, his face flushed,
his eyes flashing, his shirt collar

romance. A few days later he was
taken to states prison, where he
served his term.

HOW HE CATCHES THEM.
Judge ilcnry's Novel Scheme For Bagging
Grouse.

Judge Ilcnry's Novel Scheme For Bagging
Grouse
Livingston Aug 22.-lt is not
often that Judge Frank Henry Of
this city casts aside his judicial CT
mine and dons the hunters garb
but when he does there are few Mon
tana nimrods who can successfully
compete with him. He is a bird at
the business and lie doesn't take a
back seat for the best hunter that
ever cockcd'a gun or flushed a covey.
In bagging birds, as in everything
else, he is fully abreast of the times.
The other day while out hunting on
the Boulder he performed the novel
feat OF capturing a grouse with a
hook and line. Having tired Of
hunting he returned to camp and cx-
changed his gun for fishing tackle
and sailed forth to catch Il fine
mess Of trout While thus engaged
he discovered a grouse in the grass
on the bank Of tie stream. The
Judge stopped and batting his hook
with a fresh grasshoppcr made a cast
at the unsuspccting bird Like a fish
the grouse made q lunge at the
grasshoppcr, and swallowed the bait,
hook and all, and started to fly off.
Its flight was suddenly checked, how
ever as the line rcclcd out it's full
length. The grouse ]luttcred wildly
in the air, but it was firmly hooked
and couldn't get away. A moment
later the Judge hauled in his catch,
knocked the bird in the head and
returned triumphantly to the camp
where he related the tragedy Of the
grouse. Tho other members Of the
party were inclined to be sceptical
at first, but after inspecting the bird
with the hook and line still down its
throat, and being informed by Dis
trict Clerk Bailey that he had wit
messed the Judge perform the same
novel feat while hunting on the
Saltwater two years ago, the grouse
story was accepted as the truth and
Judge Henry was then and there
proclaimed the champion fisherman
Of the west.

NEGRO FIEND LYNCHED.
lie Murdered an Aged Banker and Then
Boosted Of the Terrible Deed.

->O~~S"~~~ ~ -'-~~-
Cincinnati, Aug. 51.-At New
Richmond, 25 miles up the Ohio
river from Cincinnati, at o'clock
this afternoon, a mob took Noah An
derson, colored, from the Jail and
hanged him for the murder of Frank
lin Friedman, nearly so years old and
president Of the First National bank
of that place.
MI. Friedman was driving into
New Richmond today when he stop
ped at one Of his houses. Hitching
his horse at the door, he went into
an adjoining field, where he was sud-
denly attacked by Anderson, a mus
cular negro. lie quickly bore the
aged banker to the earth and then,
clutching his throat with the power
of a mailman, he literally choked his
helpless victim to death.
It was not long until Anderson
wss captured and taken to the New
Richmond jail, where crowd quick
ly gathered. Anderson made no at
tempt to conceal his crime. He
gloatingly told all the details and
said he had given the old man what
what he deserved. 1t is said Ander-
son was not right in his mind and
that one of his hallucinatons was
that Friedman had deprived him of
a large sum Of money. The truth is
that the two men never had any
dealings.
The crowd about the Jail soon be-
came wildly excited. A rope was
brought and the end seemed near.
The marshal attempted to take
Anderson to more secur jail at Ba-
tayia, theCcountv seat. No sooner
did the man appear outside the Jail
than the mob rushed at the marshal,
and, seizing the prisoner bore him
quickly to the nearest tree and in q
brief time he was dead. There was
no masking, no attempt at conceal
ment.
