Killed the Entire Family.

Meadville, Mo-, July 6.-S. A.
Fields, until recently editor of the
Post, at Polo, Mo-, cut the threats of
his wife and baby with razor today,
and then ended his own life in the
same manner.
Fields, his wife and little boy were
visiting his mother-in-law, Mrs, Will
lam Thomas, two miles northwest OF
this place. They went out in the pas
ture this morning, and the supposition
is Fields cut his little boys throat,
then his wifes and then his own. No
reason is given for the deed. A note
was found on Mrs Fields saying every
thing they had was to be left to her
mother, Mrs. Thomas. 1t seems that
Fields and his wife had planned the.
tragedy, for she went into the house
after they went out, and put on an old
dress and returned to the pasture.

But the Money Remains in "A san Fran

San Francisco, July 6.-Kate Welch,
an inmate of the insane asylum at
Reno, has $1O,291 deposited III the Hi
hernia bank in this city, which has re-
manned uncalled for for twenty One
years. In the early days of mining
excitement in Nevada, Kate Welch
was a noted woman among the mining
camps, and easily acquired the fortune
now awaiting its proper claimants.
But Kate Welchs were numerous in
those days, and the right one was hard
TO find. According to the discoveries
made, she left Lynn, Mass, in 1867 or
1868, settling in Nevada. She went
back to Lynn i'll 1880 in an endeavor
to become recOnciled to her husband.
She remained there three months,
though she failed in her mission
From Lynn she went to Boston, then
came to California. February 21, 1889,
she was adjudged insane under the
name of Kate WEIGH, alias Annie
Howard, and was committed TO an asy-
lum.
A possible heir has been found in a
man named John Buckley, of ST. Louis,
who claims to be her son. He lost
sight of his mother some twenty five
wears ago, when she left her home in
Massachusetts,, and had not heard of
her since. AS Kate WEIGH was her

SPAIN WILL TAKE PART.
Representatives to BE Sent to the Next
Monetary Convention.

Washington, July S.-Senor Du Puy
lie LONE, the Spanish minister, says
Spain will take part in the next inter-
national monetary conference, as she
is interested i'll the solution of the BIZ
metallic question. Spain uses both
gold and silver, the latter being coined
at a fixed ratio of gold, and there is
also an issue of paper currency. Only
two of the Spanish colonies, Porto Rico
and the Philippine islands, use silver
almost exclusively. For these reasons
SPANS policy is definitely favorable
towards the use of both metals, and her
interests, particularly in the colonies,
are toward an enlargement of the use
of silver The belief is expressed by
some of the best posted representatives
for foreign countries that an interna-
tional money conference agreement
should embody certain essential figures.
To assure its power it must secure the
adherence of the United States and at
least one of the three great money CEN
tiers of Europe, Great Britain, France
or Germany, and the adherence of as
many lesser countries as possible. 1t
should include that feature of the Latin
Union by which the amount OF silver
to be coined by each member of the
union will be definitely fixed in ad-
vance, in accordance with its needs.
The opinion is expressed that this fea-
ture will tend to make an international
agreement very effective and dominant
on the money conditions Of the world.

THE CHENC Flu RIOTS
Many Deaths Are Reported,
Mostly Native Catholics.
LOSS OF PROPERTY QUITE LARGE
Further Details Of the Recent Anti.
Missionary Outbreak Brought
by steamer to Victoria.

Vancouver, b. c., July 4. - The
steamer Empress of China arrived to-
day, with advices from Toxic, under
date of June 2l:
The anti-missionary riots in the Sc
Chuen province occupy the exclusive
attention of foreigners. Many deaths
are reported, chiefly among native
Roman Catholics The loss of property
is estimated at $4,000, 900 i'll the city

years ago, and claimed 30, 900 converts.
The four Protestant institutions We're

several ladies, are said to be in extreme
danger, though the authorities of Pc

career with crushing blow against
the objects of his hatred. Copies OF
documents signed by him, and calling
upon his subordinate officials to unite
in the work of eXtirpating the mission
aries, have been discovered and sent to
the diplomatic body at the capital.
The reassuring statements of the cen
trial government are, therefore, receiv'
ed with suspicion, especially as no com
munication with the possible victims
can be opened. kilograms sent tC

Last evening Miss Louise Bogart, put
a tramp to flight by firing a pistol shot
from 22-caliber rifle. DR.. and Mrs.

retreated into the house and fastened
the doors. Miss Louise then ordered
the hobo to move away, which he in
solently refused to do. She then Sc
cured rife and stood guard at the

Carl Browne Failed to show I'm.

Washington, July S.-Carl Browne,
of Massillon, Chicago, Washington,
Jail, Wall street and sundry other
places, has lost his reputation with the
people of Washington for accuracy.
He has failed to keep an important en-
gagement. He promised TO be married
on the Fourth of July to Mamie Coxey,
goddess of the Commonweal army, on
the steps of the capitol at 10 O'clock
Browne and his bride reached Wash
ington Wednesday night. At 10
o'clock Thursday there was no sign of
Browne. At II O'Clock the disap-
pointed people began 60 drift away.
At noon there We're no more than half
dozen loungers around the east front.
The great wedding ceremony had failed
to materialize. Browne made no effort
to go to the steps, and was not molest-
ed i'll any way. He and Mamie de-
cided that the marriage ceremony per-
formed at Massillon a few months ago
would hold them together for the pres
ent
