hesd with something like slung-shot, in
hicting several ugly and painful wounds,
besides choking her. 1t is Beloved he intended

home in very critical condition. The news

foot hurried to the scene in search OF the
fiend. The woods round about the scene have
been searched, but the culprit had not been
captured up to 5 o'clock yesterday evening.

A War Cloud.

LONDON, Nov. ia dispatch from
the representative of the United Press
in Constantinople, under the date OF
Nov. 18th, says it was announced that
the commission appointed to put into
force the reforms adopted for the adj
ministration of affairs in Asia Minor
would begin its sitting to-day. 1t
is asserted that the terms of the con-
vention signed by the six powers
agreeing upon joint action in the
matter Of compelling the immediate
application of reform in Armenia and
the other disturbed districts have been
kept strictly secret in order to avoid an
uprising of the Mohammedan populace.
1t is asserted that the reserves recently
called out by the Turkish government
ostensibly for the purpose Of restoring
order in Asia Minor are really being
prepared for participation in the Eu-
ropean war which the Sultan and his
ministers believe to be inevitable.

Grain Blockade.

BUFFALO, N. Y. Nov. 15.-The
grain blockade here is increasing and
the situation is becoming serious. All
the elevators are full and the railroad
cannot meet the demand for cars. A
score of vessels are tied up to the
docks all along the creek awaiting their
turn to get to certain elevators.
The fleet yesterday delivered over
800, 900 bushels of grain and there is a
large quantity on the way down. The
railroads will practically have to
handle it all after Saturday, because
the various insurance companies have
decided not to take any more risks on
canal boats after midnight Saturday.
The low water of this division of the
Erie canal has delayed traffic to con-
siderable extent and has helped to aid
the blockade. Vessel owners are COM
planning bitterly about the delay in un-
loading, which means serious loss to
them
