Wagon Run over His Head.

ATcH1soN, April 10.--Johnny Manson.
the eighteen year-old son of John Man.
son of Lancaster, was instantly killed
yesterday. He was hauling manure in
his fathers orchard, and was standing in
the front end of the wagon. The team
coming to sudden stop, he was thrown
over the dash board. This frightened
the horses and they began to kick, and
lunging forward, drew the wagon over
Manson's head, fracturing the skull He
died few minutes afterwards.

DECIDES FOR MAGU|RE,
Secretary Smith Rules Against
the Claims Made by
Moore.
Not Entitled to Land as a Licensee of
the Southern Pacific Com.
pany.

WASHINGTON, D. c., Nov. 6-Secre-
tary Smith has rendered decision in the
case of Moore VS.. Mcguire, which came up
from San Francisco. He had formerly de-
cided that Moore was entitled to land as
licensee of the Southern Pacific Company,
Notwithstanding the fact that he had made
no application to purchase from the COM
pany prior to January 1, 1888. Maguire's
lawyers filed a motion to review this de-
cision, and on the arguments presented
by them the Secretary was obliged to re-
call his first decision and holds that Moore
cannot claim as licensee, for the reason
that he made no application to purchase
from the company until in 1889, and as he
was not an actual settler, with intention to
purchase from the company, the land is
awarded to Mcguire, who is homesteader
The land involved is within the tract
forfeited by the act OF Septem Der 20, $780,
and the decision is consequently OF consid-
cradle interest to others who claim land
under the forfeiture act and whose cases
are similar

DANGEROUS FOOTBALL

III III ana DemOraIizing to Studepts
an" Leads All Sports in Fatalities.
% iar as the brutality of football is con-
eeli'ed there can no longer be two sides tn
the question, writes Edward w. Box in
Tue y november Ladies' Home Journal. The
most uncompromising advocates of the
game nave conceded this fact. If one
game OF college football differs from an
other 1t IS purely and simply in its decree
OF brutality. How disastrous and fatal
were these displays last year will be brouobt
home more directly to people when bv care.

torty-slx deaths resulted last wear from col.
legiate games of football within a short
period OF tour months. No record has of
course. been kept of broken ears lost visions
and other disfgurements Asa matter of
TACT there is no sport practlced bv anv.
civilized nation which can equal a record
OF forty-slX deaths in four months.
When we regard the effects upon the
players we meet Il condition of things
equally serious. Leaving the physical in
juries entirely out of the question the game
of football as it is played to-day, is an
absolute detrlment to the mental develop
ment OF those who participate in it. l
have, during the past six months, been at
some pains to carefully inquire into the
class standing of the men who comprise
college football teams, and the results
were interesting. In two cases I found
that the majority OF the football PLAYERS
stood among the lowest in their classes,
while in the other two instances this same
fact was true of one-half of the members
of the teams. Furthermore, the
so-called fame" which is bestowed
upon these college football players is
directly injurious. Their lives are ex-
plotted. their portraits are printed, their
every movement is chronicled until the
subjects are made TO feel a prominence
which is at once preposterous and absurd.
Before boy is hardly out of his fitting
school he is spoiled by misplaced i'm
portance of himself and mistaken

with him through life. II Nor is the
effect on other students wholesome one.
1t requires strongly balanced mind, such
as is rarely given to growing boy, for a
young man to pursue craving for knowl-
edge when all around him he hears moth
ing but football talk and sees the men next
to him become'the talk of the country. IL

career, false note.

Authorities Learn When Too Late
of the Departure of the
Vessels.
CARRY ARMS AND AMMUNITION
Fast Schooners Purchased From Cana.
dian Agents Convey the
Supplies.

HALIFAX, n. S., Nov GA short time
ago, owing to the rumors that Cuban fill
clustering expeditions were leaving Cana
dian ports, the customs officers made ex-
traordinary preparations to prevent any
breach of the neutrality laws, but from in
formation which they have received to-day
it seems that their extreme efforts to pre-
vent such action being taken have been
frultless. While the inform alton came too
late for the authorities to interfere, it is
known that two expeditions have left for
the West Indies during the last three days,
and that the expeditions were fitted out in
Canadian ports.
That there were a number of Cuban
agents in Canada looking for every chance
to benefit the cause of the patriots was
known to the authorities, but, owing to
the strict watch which was kept on all the
coast ports, it was not thought possible
that any vessel could leave without the ma
ture of its cargo and its destination being
known.
To-day, however, one of the revenue
patrol vessels came in with the informa-
ton that yesterday it had sighted two
suspicious vessels leaving the harbor. 1t
signaled them to 'heave to-" which thew
did, and thinking that they were all right
it did not take the trouble of boarding
them for an inspection The authorities
learned later that the two vessels in ques.
ton, after leaving the harbor, had gone to
Swan Cove, little below Halifax, and
there had taken on large supply of men
and stores, including several cases of arms
and ammunition. These facts were learned
from one of the patrol of the coast guard,
who had been seized and held until the
sailing of the vessels.
The authorities at once star ted an in
vestigation, which led to their finding that
during the month several mysterious
strangers had been making efforts among
Halifax shipping agents to purchase two
fast schooners, and that early last week
they effected purchase. Inquiry from
the shipping agent, who, it is alleged, sold
the vessels, confirms the rumor.
The customs authorities have no direct
information, but from the facts at hand
the expedition is undoubtedly the largest
yet sent from the mainland to Cuba

DIVIDED AGAINST ITSELF.
Internal Strife Disintegrating the Party
of Cleveland.

OF Ctecetdnd.
OMAHA, NEBR., Nov. 6.-The World
Herald will say tomorrow editoriaIIy:
The Democratic party occupies the same
perllous position to-day that the Union
did IN 1S5S-it is house divided against
itself. There is an irrepressible conflict
raging within the party between mono
metalllsts and bimetallists, and the con-
fiict must continue until one side triumphs
completely. Not only is a surrender of
convictions improbable, bnt it is also i'm
polite. If the Democrats adopt a
straddling platform and nominate a
straddling candidate IN 1896 he will receive
less votes than straight goldbug or a
stralght-out advocate of free silver. He
will lose votes from all sources without
drawing votes from any source.
"The World-Herald suggests that the
Democratic national Committee be De-
tltoned to submit the silver question to
primary election. Let it be understood
that the National convention shall
adopt platform and nominate candi-
date in accordance with the views ex-
pressed at the primaries.
1t is not probable that the gold
standard Democrats will consent to a
primary election, because they dare not
submit the gold standard to the rank and
ME OF the Democratic party. But whether
the gold-standard members of the National
convention will consent to primary cleo
tion or not, the Democrats who believe in
the gold and silver coinage of theconsti-
tuition and desire the use of silver On equal
terms with gold should at once organize
and demand of the National organization

INDIANAPOLIS, IND, Nov. 6.-John
Z. New having made chance remark
Tuesday to the effect that if Colonel Brad
ley was elected it would make him the Re-
publican candidate for Vice President was
tonight pressed for an elucidation of his
remark and said, speaking for none but
him self:
The election of Colonel Bradley as Gov
ernor of Kentucky = the first practical
break of the Solid South-argues the fact
that sectional lines no longer, as between
North and South, divide the people upon
issues that are of National importance.
The Republican party. following the ex-
ample OF General Grant at Appomattox, is
deslrous of having united country for
the benefit OF the whole country.
at is anxious to oblterate sectional
lines. 1t will now recognize, 1 believe, in
the election of Colonel Bradley as Governor
of the State of Henry Clay the great ex-
ponent OF protection. that Republican
principles are peryading the whole coun-
try.
"lt would be an exceedingly fitting time
for the next Republican Convention to
nominate for Vice-President the first man
who has succeeded in successfully contest
ing race in Southern State on Repub-
lican principles. The logic of geography,
as well as recent events, points to the cleo
ton of Harrison as President and Bradley
as Vice-President."

ON THE EVE OF A CRISIS.
Decisive European Action Likely to
Be Taken Without Further
Delay.

LONDON, ENG, Nov. 6.-The Standard
tomorrow will print the following dis
patch from Constantinople under date of
November 5:
The ambassadors met again yesterday.
1t is rumored that we are on the eve Of de-
cisive European action.
A great Moslem demonstration had been
arranged for November |, but the Sultan,
fearing the consequences, sent notice TO
the Turkish newspapers OF his Intention to
proclaim a constitution. This becoming
known the affair was countermanded. An
other order was then issued which can
celed the previous order. The arrests
then began. The police last evening
raided the Turkish quarter of Sedik Pasha
and were resisted. Many lives were lost
in the conflict.
A fresh batch of revolutionary placards
were posted to-day, some of them at the
Porte.
1t is said that letter was found on the
Sultan's table urging him to abdicate
within ten days, and declaring that unless
be needed the warning he would be muir
dered.
Reports of wholesale massacres reach
WIZ vii odSolc0 ItOIH ok oAiCC9IOns. Lie
victims include Maronites and Greeks.
The opinion grows, even in diplomatic
circles, that the Sultan has oedered the
determination of the Armenians. The ex-
element is spreading to Syria, Bagdad
and Mossoul.
A Constantinople dispatch which the
Chronicle will print tomorrow says~it is
reported that battalion of regular troops
has surrendered to the Armenians at
Chikour Hissai, near Zeitoun.
The same dispatch says that an English
resident of Constantinople has learned
from his business agent that number OF
victims of the massacre in Anatolia must
be estimated at 1000.
The Standard tomorrow will print the
following dispatch from Vienna: The
Porte in replying to the demand of the
foreign ambassadors for restoration of
order throughout the Turkish empire, an
nounces that the reserves in the Trebizond
district had already joined the colors and
that others were joining elsewhere. More
over the members of the Reaif Tor Land
wehr) of the first class had been sum-
moned and were marching to join their
regiments.
