THE KING OF FASHION,

Worth, the Noted Partisan Dressmakep.
IL Dead-Was Not Frenchman. as Sup.
posed, But the Son of an English Solicit
or, and Began His Remarkable Career
with the Firm of Swan 8 Edgar, Well
Known In London.
PARIS, March Worth. the famous
dressmaker of Paris, is dead.
NJ. Worth was born at Bourne, In
Lincolnshire, England, in 1925, and the
king of Fashion" was therefore not,
as is generally supposed, French
man, but an Englishman. He was en-
ployed for some time with a we'll
known firm in Oxford street, London.
and thence proceeded to Paris.
NJ. Worth has made dresses for all
the queens of Europe with the single
exception of Queen Victoria, and for
women of fashion the world over. His
father was a solicitor, with a good
private fortune, which he lost in
speculation. At the age of Is young
Worth went to Swan & Edgar's, in
London, and remained there for sever
al years. during which time he did all
the work falling to the lot of an or
binary apprentice.
Having heard much of French fash
ions, he determined to go to Paris, but
on his arrival there was for some time
out of situation; ultimately, however,
he succeeded in getting into Gagelins,
where he remained twelve years. This
firm was noted for silks, which were
woven by workmen in their own homes.
There was at this time no house in Paris
which sold material and made it up
as well. and this combining of the two
branches struck NJ. Worth as a good
idea, and he obtained commission
from his principals to try it. This he
did, beginning with cloaks, and train
that he designed gained a medal in
1855. The firm refused to take him
into partnership, although he had
been the means of introducing
profitable and novel feature
into the business. so he determined
to start for himself This he did at
his present premises, Z Rue de la Paix,
in 1855. He began by employing fifty
hands, gradually increasing his force
as business warranted.
At the present time his establish.
ment employs about 1000 persons and
turns out between 5000 and 5000
dresses and between 5000 and 400
cloaks a year. NJ. Worth was
assisted by his sons, NJ. Gas

of the counting house, and NJ.

THE CORPORATION WINS.

A Suit Involving Sixty-Eight Thousand
Acres of Land Alleged to be Mineral
Lands.
WASHINGTON, March i2-The secre-
tary of the interior yesterday decided
a case involving about $4,000 acres of
land located in the upper peninsula of
Michigan, near Lake Superior, and
valued at between $40, 900. 600 and sl5,-
900, 900.
grant of 200. 900 acres of land was
made by the government in 1866 to the
state of Michigan for the benefit of the
Portage Lake IL Lake Superior Ship
Canal Co., now the Wakeena Limited,
a corporation.
The grant was settled by patenting
TO the company the amount called for
in the grant. Certain persons desired
to tle Poterfield scrip upon some of
these lands patented to the company
and their applications being refused
because patents were issued to the
same lands, petition was fled, asking
the secretary of the interior to recon-
mend to the attorney general of
the United States that suits be
brought to set aside the alleged
erroneous certifcation of about 6s, 900
acres of these lands. The commissioner
of the general land Office recommended
that such suit be brought. The prin-
cipal point in the petition was that the
lands applied for, incl uding the $4,000
acres Were of mineral character, and
the act making the grant provided for
nonmineral lands only to be patented
to the company.
The secretary, in disposing of the
matter. did not concur with the COM
missioner of the general land office.
holding as the principal point of his
decision, that Oliver II. Browning, a
former secretary of the interior, had
practically decided that the lands GER
titled were not, as fact, mineral
lands, and refused to disturb Secretary
Browning's decision upon a question
in fact.

IMPRISONED MINERS.

Fire In the Shaft House of the snitsns Mine
Catches Several Men Underground-Two
of Whom are sufYocsted, W lille the Others
Have a Close CaIl-Heroism of Foreman
johnson and Others.
WINNIPEG, Man, March 12.-Ihe
shaft house of the Sultana mine, near
Rat Portage, was destroyed by fire
yesterday afternoon. The fire COM
municated to the shaft and the miners
underground were imprisoned for
seven hours before the fire was extin-
guished. Two of them died soon after
being brought to the surface; six
others are in precarious condition
while the rest of the men are still in
the mine.
The fire caught in the drying room.
and is supposed to have been started
by pipe in the pocket of a coat hang
ing on the wall.
Fireman Johnson noticed the fire
and called on the men to assist in put
ting it out, but all ran away, being
afraid of explosives in the drying
room. Mr.. johnson rushed into the
fiery room, removed two boxes of pow
der and then directed his attention to
an attempt to save the building.
The fire started at o'clock, and un-
til 1880 no effort could possibly be
made to assist the men in the shaft.
As soon as the ruins were sufficiently
cooled it vas found that the timbers
lining the shaft were blazing, and the
water was directed on these timbers,
but in the excitement the greater por-
ton of it fell useless down the shaft.
About this time help arrived from
Rat Portage, and shortly after 2
O'Clock the fire was extinguished in
the shaft and Messrs. Motley Bell, as
sayer at the mine, and Foreman john
son rugged a hoist, descended the
shaft and found six men on the first
level. They were apparently suffo-
Gated. They descended to the lower
level and found three more, but these
men were in better shape than the
Others and efforts were begun to raise
the others.
The first three brought up were suf-
fering badly, but were resuscitated
after short time under DR.. MacDon-
aids attendance. The fourth man,
however, John Tagler, was very low
when he arrived at the sur
face and died shortly after. He
was a Frenchnan and had been
working since last fall. The others
were in critical condition
when brought to the surface, but all
recovered excepting Rudolph Erick-
son. William Ryan, upon examina-
ton, was found badly burned on the
back in three places by burning sparks
| falling on him.
1t seems the air shaft ignited and
caused suction of air from the bot
tom of the shaft, depriving the men of
fresh air, and also causing the smoke
TO descend the shaft.
When found. all the men were I'M
conscious and leaning against the side
of the shaft. Mr.. Caldwell and as
sistants did everything possible to re-
lieve their sufferings.
The building was completely con-
sumed. but the loss is covered by in
surance. The fire does not affect the
the mill proper, and work continues
during the erection of new shaft
house.

murder of Catherine Cling, has three

Leading Issue in the State Convention Ia
tho Silver Question.
MARsHALLTowN, Aug7.-The state DEM
ocratic convention is one Of the largest
and most spirited ever held In Iowa, and
interest Is greater than in any previous
political gathering of the past ten years.
The discussion Is principally confined to
the currency question, which Is the lead
ing issue in the convention. The free silver
men are making stubborn fight, but
from present indications the convention
will reindorse the national platformof 1892.
Two widely varying opinions prevail as to
personal Endorsement of the present ad-
ministration.
The state central committee held On
unimportant meeting last evening. The
convention was called to order at 10 a. m.
in Odeon Opera House, with Judge Ma
thaniel French, of Davenport, as temper
airy chairman, and promises to be very an.
imated. Judge w. 1. Babb of Mt. Pleas
ant, Is the most prominently mentioned
candidate for governor thus far.
The sensation of the day was the fight
by the free silver men to capture the con-
vention. They had several conferences,
and confidently asserted their ability to
command majority Of the votes in the
conven ton. This is vigorously disputed
by the "honest money" people, who say
they are able to defeat a IL to l plank by a
decided and overwhelming majority.

ON A BLOODY TRAIL
Chicago Police Find Real Evidence of
Murder In Holmes Case.

CHICAGO, Aug. 0-Human blood was
found yesterday in Holmes Castle" be-
spattered from one room to another.
Science aided the detectives where other
agencies had failed, and uncovered more
startling evidence against Holmes and
Pat Quinlan that had yet been found In
the Castle" The detectives and medical
expert found in the Castle" trail of
blood leading from the doorway of the
dining room of Mrs. Julia L. Conner to
the sink in the same room; from there
into the dark chamber where she and
Pearl formerly slept, and then to the in.
side door opening into the bath room,
whore the secret trap door was; on the
Dashboard of that room above the trap
door, and down the secret staircase which
led to the false elevator shaft, and thence
into the basement. The blood was human.
A cloth Of blood mixed with human hair
was also found.
In the debris in the dark chamber
found some child's underwear stained
with blood; pair of brown diagonal
trousers, stained at the bottom with
blood; the pocket of womans dress,
blood-soaked; a handkerchief which had
been used to wipe up the blood with, and
various cloths and parts OF undercloth.
ing spotted with blood. These articles
were examined microscopically at tina
time Of their discovery and the test made
showed that the stains were human
blood A rope was found in the dark
chamber. and in the knots blood was dis
covered.
In Pat Quinlan's private rooms were
found two trunks of theatrical type.
One was purchased from Meeks in Den
yer. On both trunks we're the initials
an II W." These initials were painted
over. The initials are those Of Minnie r.
Williams Quinlan stated, after being
taken into custody, that the trunks be-
longed to him. The detectives have now
the truth both trunks belonged to Min.
ME Williams. Quinlan will be confronted
with this evidence. He will also be faced
with books found in his possession, and
which belonged to Minnie Williams.
There are magazines bearing date as
late as April, 1894, demonstrating that
Minnie Williams was alive at that time.
The fact that one of her trunks was
bought in Denver is explained by the in.
formation that after she entered the EN-.
ploy of Holmes she entered the theatrical
business in Denver. Chief Badenoch also
secured, in addition to the above evi.
dence, positive proof that Benjamin f.
Pitzel was at Dwight as patient when
Emeline Cigrand was there as stenog.
rapher. He went under the name Of
Robert K. Phelps.
Under the name of Phelps he met EN-
lily Cigrand and wooed her. The girl did
not leave Dwight of her own free will,
but was discharged for inability to prop.
erly perform her duties. AS soon as she
left Dwight she came to Chicago and en-.
tered the employ of Holmes. There again
she met Pitzel under the name of Phelps.
The inference drawn by the officers from
the trail of blood is that the blood, being
human, came from some person killed in
the dark chamber, dragged from there to
the trap-door, thence down the secret
doorway to the basement beneath.
