ON THE WHEELS.
The Postal Boys and Military to Have
a Contest.

Chicago, June 4.-Encouraged by the
secretary of war, Major General Miles
and others, preparations have been made
for competitive bicycle race this week
between the postal service and military,
the postal service taking a message from
Postmaster Hesing of Chicago to the
postmaster of New York and the military
a message from General Kruger to General
Miles. More than 500 riders and subs
will be necessary to carry the message
more than were ever in a race before.
The military has been carefully arranged
and each division of the journey is under
such careful supervision that little time
will be lost in changes. The finish is ex-
pected to be an exciting squirt and will be
awaited at an appointed station in New
York by General Miles. Medals and
prizes for those making the best average
time will be given. The time scheduled
is y hours which seems small, but on
account of the careful arrangements it is
thought that it can be almost carried out.
and a time record established which will
beat anything which has hitherto been
done. The route after leaving Chicago
takes in La Porte. Southbend, Goshen
Ind; Fremont, Elmyria, gainesville, Ash
tabula, Ohio: Northwest Pennsylvania !;
Buffalo. Batavia. Rochester, Syracuse
Utica, Schenectady, Albany. Poughkeep-
sic. Sing Sing, Tarrytown and Yonkers to
New York.

TALKS LUST A LITTLE.

ST. Louis, June 4.-Archbishop Kain,

have received information from the prop
err authorities by cable that | have been
appointed archbishop of st. Louis de jure.
The official documents have not yet ar
rived from Rome and may not for some
days. When they come they will be
properly announced"
When asked if Archbishop Kenrick
had been consulted on the matter, he
said he could discuss the matter no fur
Their and retired. When the same ques-
ton was asked of a priest who is very
near to Archbishop Kahn, the reverend
gentleman said: II can not say positive
ly, but l do not think he was. Neither
do l think he has been informed of the
appointment of Archbishop Kain, nor do
| think he will be. / am inclined to think
that the old archbishop will be allowed
to pass away still believing himself arch
bishop of st. Louis, if he is able to think
seriously on the subject at all. You can
not say that Archbishop Kenrich has been
depOsed, either. He has simply been re-
tired. To depose him would take an Off
cial ecclesiastical ceremony and that you
will never see."

THE MYSTERIOUS MURDER.

San Francisco, June 2-The police are
still hunting for the murderer of Miss
Harrington, whose mutlated body was
found in her house on Ellis street yester-
day. The woman had been stabbed and
beaten to death by some blunt instrument.
Among the other occupants of the house
was an elderly man who called freely on
Miss Harrington and who took her out
driving.
In the murdered wOman's room was
found n photograph of ex-State Senator
Buck, one of the most prominent fruit
growers of the State. The people of the
house identified the picture of Buck as
that of the gentleman who called on Miss
Harrington. The police sent to Mr..
Bucks house and requested him to come
to headquarters and tell what he knew.
Mr.. Buck started to drive to the station.
nut ON his way was thrown from his
buggy and sriously injured Senator
Buck was at his home in Oakland yestcr-
day between the hours of II and 3 o'clock
and it is known that the murder was
committed between II and o'clock.
Ex-senator Bucks physicians said to-
night he could not possibly survive an
other night.
Buck was Il constant caller on Miss
Harrington and had taken her driving
ana TO various resorts. The police saw
me murder was committed by some one
intimately acquainted with Miss Harring-
ton Who ever committed the murder let
himself in at the front door with n KEY,
If Miss Harrison let the man in it was
undoubtedly some one whom she was on
intimate terms with, rs she was only par
italy dressed when the murder was com
mitted. The police searched through ahe
papers found in the room in the hone of
finding a clue. When asked the result of
the search, Captain Lee said he had found
certain evidence which he should not
make public ait this time. Then a confer
ence of detectives was held and at its
close, Chief of Police Crowley. accompa.
MED by an Oakland detective, went TO
Oakland, where Senator Buck resides.
The detectives have investigated the
statement made by Senator Bucks fam
lily that he was at home at the time the
murder was committed. When questioned
as to the accuracy of this statement. the
detectives who made the Investigation
avoided questions. Owing to Bucks prom
inence and the tragic fate that befell him
before he had an opportunity to clear him
self of suspicion which has grown nm
against him, the murder has created n
sensation.

Memphis. June At is estimated that
ut least 1900 delegates have already been
appointed to attend the silver convention
which will meet here June II, and county
and township mass meetings in large
numbers are being held daily for the selec-
ton of delegates. With this Cutpouring of
delegates for the free coinage of silver,
the gathering is expected to eclipse the
recent sound money demonstration in this
city in point of numbers. Besides the
senator's and congressman who are eX-
pected to be present and address the con-
vention. an invitation was today sent to
the Hon. Alexander Delmar, formerly
chief of the United States bureau of
statistics and member of the silver COM
mission of 1876 in the national convention.
This invitation was sent at the sugges-

Chicago, June 4-Western lines made
no Roadway today in their attempt TO SET
tie per centages in their proposed freight

the demands of the Missouri Pacific
which other lines declare exhorbitant.
Another controversy developed today in
deciding which are the leadings and
which consequently should get the largest
share of the business from the different
gateways. The st. Paul, the Burlington
and the Rock Island for instance, have
terminals in Kansas City, Omaha and ST.
Paul. Many other roads have two com
mon terminals. 1t was utterly impOs-

agreement. If they finally disagree the
