NEW YORK, June 15.-The World
this morning says: "There have
been 40S typhoid fever cases in
Stamford, Conn, since April 81.
These figures are the official ones,
but there is every reason to believe
that at least thirty deaths out Of
AS cases would be correct. Town
Clerk Waterbury, Of Stamford, has
tweuty-four death certificates in
which typhoid is given as the
cause. A boy from Litchfield, ten
years old who was In the city for
day, drank glass of milk at a
Stamford bakery and died three
weeks later at his home. A young

lar nature are reported.

OKLAHOMA GOLD FIELD.
Excitement Grows, Farms Are De-
serted and the Usual Scenes
Occur

GUTHRIE, Ok, June 15.-The ex-
element over the gold find in &C."
and Washita counties increases da-
lily and 5000 people are digging in
the new field. An assay shows
that the gold will run $2S to the
ton. All the ore found 80 far has
come from the surface gullies, but
three mining companies have al
ready been organized to put In
plants and mine for the yellow
metal. The appearance of the min.
ing camps resemble scenes in the
Colorado mineral regions in early
California days. Saloons, restau-
rants, and dance halls are flourish
ing at all the new settlements and
money appears to be plenty. All
the farmers in the three counties
surrounding "G." county have de-
serted their farms and joined in
the mad rush for new riches.
Among the Indians at the camp is
the famous Chief Parker, who de-
clares the land Is full Of gold. The
towns of Arapahoe and Cloud Chief
are absolutely depopulated, and
everybody has joined the rush.
Specimens of the ore have been
sent to Washington.

JOHN BULL ON MEADE.
His Unfriendliness to British Au-
thority the Real Cause of
His Removal.

New YORK, June 15.-The case
OF Admiral Meade, which ceased to
attract much attention in naval
circles here, being generally con-
sidered a closed incident, has begun
to receive comment among naval
officers abroad. In the June issue
of the Broad Arrow, the naval and
military gazette Of Great Britain,
which has just reached the navy
yard at Brooklyn, the leading edi.
torial is devoted to the subject, and
says:
The American government has
shown its good will to England, not
only by Its amicable attitude over
the Nicaraguan difficulty but also
by it's suppression Of Rear Admiral
Meade in command Of the Ameri-
can squadron which was present on
the Nicaraguan coast.
Admiral Meade with an indis-
erection which is as painful to Eng.
lishmen as it is foolish, expressed
his regret that his government had
not allowed him to act with vigor
against us. He was anxious to
support the Nicaraguans in their
farcial resistance to our just de-
mands and for this he has been
punished. We cannot but deplore
the unfriendly attitude which GER
tain American naval officers occa-
sionally assume toward US.
We have in our mind Admiral
Belknap's procurement that the
Japanese could easily whip the
Britishers, as the British was quite
an inefficient force. Such talk does
harm when the two branches Of
our race are drawing closer togeth-
er. Captain Mahan and Admiral
Erben did not think or speak in
this way and on this side Of At.
lantic there is nothing but the
friendliest interest in the new
American navy. We do not grudge
our cousins their greatness we do
not interfere with their foreign
policy, and we look forward with
hope to future possibility Of an
alliance which would be the only
really popular alliance in Eng
land.
The Spectator makes a happy
suggestion which might be acted
upon by our government. The
United States has shown its friend
illness by removing Admiral Meade,
let us do an equally gracious act by
asking that he may be reinstated
to his command. 1t would certain
ly promote a kindlier feeling to-
wards US among the officers Of the
American navy, and might even
make Admiral Meade himself
think that the Britishers are not
such terrible villains after all"

BLACKBURN is LOADED.
He Fires Off His Blunderbus Against
Carlisle, Cleveland and all
Who Represent Them.

FRANKFORT, KY, June 15.-Sen-
ator Blackburn addressed a large
audience here last night. He had
hoped it would not be necessary
for him to speak to his neighbors
as he had defended himself against
lies and slanderers elsewhere.
Every newspaper wearing the col
lar Of its master every gauger and
storekeeper had combined with the
administration and money power
to cause his defeat. Senator Lind
say told them that he (Blackburn)
was preaching heresy. Carlisle
had been sent here and he thought
he would be more civil II the Presi-
dent would make the combine COM
plete and lock the doors of the
White House and come himself.
Carlisle was taken to task for say
ing he never favored free and I'M
limited coinage. He sat by his
side and thought he heard him
vote for the Bland and silver bill
on Nov. 5, 1878, and vote and speak
for the acts of 1890 and he would
give the best member of his body
II Carlisle had not been the ablest
advocate of free and unlimited
coinage Of silver.
But Brutus tells you he had not,
and surely Brutus is an honorable
man.
Carlisle said in his three speeches
there was but 100000 silver dol
lars coined between 1872 and 1873,
while the truth is there was $780,
100000 of silver money coined. Car
Isle was accused of misrepresent-
by $S2,000,000 the amount Of gold
in circulation. The greater portion
Of the speech was devoted to the
severe criticism Of Cleveland Car
Isle and Lindsay and the press.

WHISKY TRUST MATTERS.
Reorganization Committee Offer the
Court a Lump Sum on
Conditions.


CHICAGO, June 15.-The reorgan-
ization committee offers to pur-
chase the plant of the whisky trust
for $9,SOO,OOO, providing the court
orders the receiver to allow as a
consideration such proportion Of
the sum as would be divided
among the 347, 0S7 shares of stock
held by the reorganization COM
mittee. This offer is made in the
petition for judicial sale Of trusts
effects, which was filed in the
United States Circuit courts Office
this evening. The petitioners set
forth as the reason for immediate
sale that the business under a re-.
ownership does not tend to any
permanence and the retention Of a
regular trade in the face of sharp
competition is impossible and fur
Their control by the receiver tends
to the ultimate injury Of the stock
holders OF the company. The petit
TONERS pray the court to order the
sale of the property and the trans
fer to the purchasers to be made as
fast as the cattle feeding contracts
at the various plants come to an
end. The lump sum Of $9,SOO,OOO
is offered for the plants, condi-
toned on the acceptance of the
stock. The receiver, or his success
sor, under the terms OF the sale are
to be empowered to continue the
suits against Greenhut, Morris and
others on the alleged fraudulent
bond issue. A statement was SUBJ
mitted with the petition showing
that the trust has an excess Of
assets over all liabilities of $1,046,-
331. The petition will be called for
before Judge Showalter within the
coming week and will be attacked
by all Of the opposing interests.

sumcd-Shcrifrs Posse Still on the
Ground and Ready for Emcr gen cics
Practically. the street car strike in
Carbondale is at an end. The company
is able with the men SO far secured
to run all but . few of the cars, and in
less than a week the officials expect to
have the service up to the old stand
ard. There are only eleven cars operat-
ing on the Carbondale Traction COM
pany's lines In any event, so that 1t is
not so difficult to procure enough of
rev men to run them. The number of
the conductors and motormen that
went on strike is but So.
While there is much ill-feeling ram
pant among the strikers and their SYM
pathizers. there has not been any fur
ther attempt at trouble made since
Sunday, when the switches and cross
ings near the Wild West show grounds
were spiked and distractions thrown
on the tracks. The general impression
is that the pre- sence of the Buffalo Bill
show was responsible for the work of
Sunday. Large crowds congregated
and some OF the hotheads and the mis-
chievous boys that We're there are
charged with sp'kjng the switches and
pilinS the ties on the track. The
strikers had nothing to do with it.
Patrick Mesnan. of Mayfield, sus-
pected OF being guilty of part in the
affair of Sunday, was taken before
Alderman Baker. Of Carbondale, yes
terday, on y warrant that had been
sworn cut for his arrest. He thought
that it was joke. but found out the
seriousness of his position when the al
deriuan bound him ever in the sum of
81 900 hail to appear at court.
Deputy Sheriff Frank f. Ryan re-
turned to this city yesterday and left
the posse in charge of Deputy Sheriff
l.. C. Bortree of Moscow. Mr.. Ryan
states that from the first he saw no
sign among the strikers that would in
dicate that they intended violence. He
says they discountenanced 1t. Here
and there the new employees are re-
ceived with taunts and jeers. The pub
lie is not patronizing the cars, more.
perhaps, on account of the fear that
regular trips cannot be made.
The strikers held meeting last night
and are confident that they will win
while, on the other hand, the company
expects to have it's lines running the
same as usual by the end of the week.
