lNGERSOll'S CONVERSION

Made . Subject for Special Thanksgiving
Prayers.
CLEvEL AND, O., Nov. 2s.-Tne move
ment to offer prayer for Col Robert G..
Ingerson at noon on Thanksgiving day
met an enthusiastic response yester-
day. At the Mayou mission on Onta-
rio street the Christian Endeavor so
ciety had special meeting. The room
was filed with worshippers and for an
hour the most fervent appeals as
cended to the Throne of Mercy for the
conversion of the noted infidel. Some
of those who offered petitions had been
hardened sinners themselves, and had
been rescued from the slums by the
efforts of praying bands of city mis-
sionaries. Their faith in the efficacy
of prayer was founded on experience.
1t was genuine and simple.
In few other cases special meetings
for prayer were held, but in most
cases the members of the Christian
Endeavor societies offered their petit
tions in their homes, while the Thanks
giving turkey waited to be served.
At all of the city churches where serv-
ices were held the subject of prayer
was remembered. The Christian En-
deavorers were joined largely by Ep-
worth Leaguers and Christians gem
orally in the effort to secure Inger-
soils conversion, and many an old
mother in Israel" pleaded with tears
for the skeptic as if he were her own
son.

che Republican President Played 'Possum
with His Party.
John Sherman in his book says, in
telling why the silver law of 1S90 was
passed: The silence of the president
on the matter gave rise to an apprehen-
sion tina. if a free coinage bill should
pass both houses he would not feel at
liberty to veto it." Therefore. as the
alternatives seemed to be free silver or
the silver bullion deposit law. the re-
publicans took the latter and lesser evil.
This lets the republicans in congress
out, but where does it leave Harrison?
If the leaders of the purity in congress
lost faith in him in that crisis how
ought tho masses of the party feel to-
ward him? Most of the rank and file
of the republican party thought Harri-
son was, and still think he Is, sound on
the silver question, but the misgivings
of the party leaders, who ought to know
more about him than do the masses.
will shake their faith in him in this
particular. It is encouraging, how
ever, to know that nobody ever felt
or now teels any doubt as to what
Cleveland would have done or would
do with free silver bill even il every
member of his party in the country
shouted for it. and if it received a
unanimous vote of the party in both

Great Excitement Over Late Discoveries

SALT LAKE CITY, Utah, Nov. 3d.
Recent discoveries of vast gold fields
have been make at Mercur. about six
ty-five miles south of Salt Lake City
which give every indication of max
ing that place not only the largest and
richest gold mining camp in America,
but in the world. For about two wears
only one proper ~ has been operated,
the Mercur Cola Mining and Milling
Co.
Within a very short period district
of seven miles by three miles has been
almost entirely taken up and fully a
thousand miners and prospectors are
at work. Three new mills have been
started up and are now operating even
more profitably than the original one.
New discoveries are being made
daily and there is great excitement.
The extent of the surface in which the
ore is found appears to be practically
unlimited and the stock of numerous
companies which have been recently
incorporated is eagerly sought for at
from so cents to 81 a share.

It this inspection revealed any crevice

was abandoned until the threatening
overhang had been dislodged. This
extreme caution has prevented many
accidents
Yesterday afternoon about thirty
men were at work on the 4OO-foot level
breaking ore and loading the cars sent
down by the cable. About $50 o'clock
the entire northwest wall, apparently
containing over 100 tons of rock, fell
into the pit, killing not less than
eleven men. and inf1icting serious in
iuries upon nine others. William AS
pell and four others ran and escaped.
Five Italians also got out alive.
Aspell and his companions, as soon
as the powders stopped rolling down
the'slope, saw Patrick FL. Murtha strug-
CLING to get up. He was pinned fast
by rock. They assisted him up and
he was hoisted to the surface. where
he died soon after.
just as the rescuing car started on
the return trip more rock fell, and it
is reported that one of the three Ital-
lians mentioned above was killed.
The second downward trip brought
Pat Il. Kelley and James McGinn.
They organized the miners left in the
pit. secured tools and began to take
out the bodies. Rocks were thrown
off the bodies of Michael Cannon,
Thomas Dennis, John Pagan an Aus

Italians, Nos. $40 and 394. ALI were
dead and horribly mangled
Mark Critchley, who seemed to be
suffering from fracture of the spine,
probably fatally hurt, was taken home,
as was also Patrick Barns, who will
recover.
Supt. Tomkins and Foreman Lynch
received the bodies upon the surface,
and submitted them to the view of
Coroner Penny and jury. The I'M
dertakers cared for them as the rela-
tives and friends directed.
Darkness came on rapidly and the
falling of rocks continued to threaten
the rescuing party, when Mr.. Tom<ins
ordered all hands to the surface.
The work of taking out the bodies
was resumed at daylight this morning.
1t is believed that eight bodies remain
in the pit.
A great crowd focked to the scene
of the disaster. First came the rela-
tives of those who lived in the hamlet,
and then followed hundreds from
Brewster and Carmel
AS the car raised body after body to

PROCURED BY FRAUD.

An Indlana Husband De- rtu His wife,
Gets . Divorce and Fails n err to Large
fortune-Dlscovered by His Wife, Hs
WIN be Called TO Account for His Course
and Compelled TO Mako Restitusiou Tor
the Wrong Done.
TERRE HAUTE. Ind. Nov. IA suit
just filed here to annul divorce
granted in February. 1872, brings to
light a strange story of desertion of a
wife and the procurement of a divorce
by the husband whom the wife had
mourned as.dead for quarter of CEN
tury but who is just now found living
in wealth in New Hampshire.
According to the complaint of Mrs.
ried to Robert Ella in Quincy, ILL.,, Feb
ruary Is. 1871. They moved to Kansas
City and lived happily for six months,
when he said he was going to Leaven-
worth to seek better employment
She heard from him once or twice
and then never again directly until
few months ago when she was
astounded to learn that he was living
in Concord, N. H.. and had fallen heir
to fortune of 5000 Moreover he
disowned her and said he had been
divorced from her.
She employed Boston attorney to
protect her rights and he was here a
few days ago to examine the records
of the court in which the husband
said he had obtained the divorce. It
was found that the divorce was
granted February II, 1872, and that it
was on the ground of cruel and in
human treatment
Under the Indiana law at that time
Ella must have made oath that he had
been a resident of the state more than
a year. According to the wife's COM
plant they had lived for six months
of the preceding year in Kansas City.
The notice to her OF the suit for di-
vorce was by publication in the local
newspapers, which, of course, she
never saw. She says that she learned
indirectly about five years ago that
he had died in California and it was
when she had learned that she might
be the heir to property left by his
New England relatives and began in
vestigating the matter that she first
knew that he was alive and had OBJ
tanned divorce from her. Neither he
nor she had ever remarked. Personal
service of the new suit is to be served
on him in Concord in a few days

PROSPECTS OF THE DEMOCRACY

A Bulwark of Strength When Placed In
the Opposition.
Those democrats who for some weeks
have been hearing the triumphant as
surances of the republicans that the
campaign of 1896 Is virtually no longer
in doubt should not be too easily down.
cast. The late election unquestionably
makes the republican prospect rosy. A
snap Judgment of the situation at the
present time would be that the next
national administration will be under
the control of the republicans.
But if there is one thing certain in
American politics it is the element of
uncertainty. The quickness with which
the people withdraw their support from
one party in favor of another has been
shown in recent years with startling
clearness. They are remarkably sud-
den in administering rebuke. The re-
publican party has at present to con-
front the prospect of congressional
session in which it is practically power
less to do any signal benefit to the coun-
try, while it may undertake measures
which will make it unpopular. A single
blunder-the bungling of the tariff bill
-suffced to give the democracy crush
ing defeat a little more than a year ago.
The republicans are not likely to make
any such error this time. Should they
enact vicious legislation they would but
share the responsibility with the demo-
cratic president unless they chose to
take the extreme measure of passing it
over his veto. But the chances for tao
teal errors are numerous and ever pres
emit. Either the Cuban question or
finances, or even the tariff itself. might
easily be made the occasion for as un-
happy an exhibition as that attending
the consideration of the Wilson bill.
Poor though the democracy's present
prospects may look. the party will still
have in it's favor the advantage which
may come from the blundexs of OPP
1,onents. And the democratic party,
weak as it often is when in power. is
bulwark of strength when placed in the
observation-disclosures Record lind. ].

upon the London cablegrams that the

report from the special agent of
the department in England. and
since DIR. Salmon. chief of the
bureau of animal industry, has been
energetically but unsuccessfully en-
deavoring to devise some means of
treating the sheep exported to Great
Britain SO that a substantial guarantee
could be given that they were not
afflicted with the scab. While it is
the fact that certain American sheep
imported into England have been in
fected with scab. that this is given as
the reason for the issuance of the or
der quoted, a distinct impression pre-
walls that this is not the chief motive
upon which the British board of agri-
culture has acted.
THE principal difficulty, take it. |"
said DIR. Salmon. lis that American
sheep that have been fattened after
arrival in England develop into such
a superior quality of British mutton
that the native sheep had no chance
alongside of them, whereat the
British farmer naturally would COM
plain. Another thing is the tremendous
growth of the business. In the year
ended June 80, 1894, exports of sheep
to England numbered about $4,000;
last year they increased to $780,
600. Possibly if we were to
agree to restrict our shipments to say
5000 head, the British farmer and the
British government would take their
chances on the scab.
THE ORDER" continued DIR. Salmon,
places our sheep on the same basis as
our cattle, which must be slaughtered
at the port of entry. 1t is a police reg
ulation which every country may en-
force to protect the health of its in
habitants and the condition of its live
