eggs, but this seemed Improbable as the

foot black snake, i'm whose stomach was

organization Of Chicago, last night re-
pudiated the monetary planks of the
democratic national platform Of 1892.

of the declarations by a number of
members of the club that those voting
against the monetary planks Of the con-
ventfons were voting themselves out Of
the party. This action was taken at

Bordentown, N. j., April 25.-It now
seems but question of a few hours
until Mrs. Della Stewart Parnell will
pass away. Since she was attacked by
the first convulsion yesterday she has
rapidly grown worse and is growing
weaker every minute. DR.. Ships, the
attending physician, has given up all
hope of saving the aged woman's life
and as she is too weak to undergo an
operation all that can be done is to
wait for the fast approaching end. DR..
Ships believes that if his patient were
strong enough to stand an operation
that the clot of blood at the base of
the brain, which, in his opinion. is the
cause of the convulsions could be sue
cessfully removed, and while it might
not result in her ultimate recovery. life
could be prolonged. Friends of the pa
tient are at her bedside, but she does
not seem to recognize any one

Montreal, Que, April 25.-There is
great excitement in Chinese colony Ee-
cause the scheme Of gang Of SNUG
glers who brought about fifty China
men into the United States by means of
collins and women's clothes, has been
exposed. Sam Keei the head of the col
ony, and archsmuggler of human and
other forbidden articles Of import,
smiled as he denied any personal
knowledge of the affair, but there is no
doubt many Of the men passed
through here. The customs officials
have traced the gang and it is expected
important arrests will be made soon.
Though the collector here refuses to
talk it is we'll known that several "spe-
Gals have gone to st. John, N. B.
There is another gang, however,
which the officials appear to be after
and which operated by a more direct
route. Their specialties are the SNUG
Cling OF phenacetinc, which has taken
the place of opium, because opium now
gives an exceedingly small profit.
