WHERE rs MR.. sCOVALL7

Trunk Belonging to ST. Paul Man
Found in Minneapolis Barn.
MINNEAPOLIS, Nov. 6.-What has be-
come of A. B. Scovall, formerly resid-
ing on College avenue, St. Paul? His
trunk was found in a barn in the rear Of
15 Fourth street south, in this city, by
H. A. Turner. It had evidently been
there for some time, but how it came
there is a mystery. It was opened and
found to contain a life insurance policy
for $4,000, FIVE certificates Of deposit in
New York city and California banks,
deeds for valuable property in California
and number of letters and kilograms
showing the possessor to have been a
man Of means and heavy business in
terests.
The kilograms and correspondence
were addressed to Mr.. Scovall at 80
College avenue, St. Paul, the more
recent being dated year ago, from the
Palmer House, Chicago, signed H. J.
Tarbox, and calling Scovall to Chicago
on business. The certificate of deposit
and other valuable papers have been
placed in safe keeping, and an effort
will be made to find the owner, or locate
his heirs if he is dead, as is presumed
more probable.

KENTUCKIANs WERE EXCITED.

Doubt About the Election Caused Great
Interest Among Bourbons.
LOUISVILLE, KY, Nov. 6.-Never be-
fore has there been such general inter
est in an election in this state, all due
to the fact that the result in many
minds is clothed in doubt. The Repub-
licans of the Fifth legislative district
We're thrown into CONSERVATION when
they discovered that their candidate
had secretly Withdrawn from the con-
test. This is Speaker Carrolls district
and many Republicans were hopeful Of
winning the seat, It seems that Car
rolls opponent, G. U. Shreve, notified
the county clerk on the 10th inst, be-
fore the ballots were printed, to leave
his name off them, but that he did not
notify the Republican committee Of his
withdrawal SO that they could substi-
tute another candidate, SO the speaker
Of the house had walk-over for repre-
sentative.

Short Cablegra,n That Means Much From
the African Explorer.
PHILADELPHIA, Nov. Ga cablegram
was received in this city from DR.. Don
aldson Smith, dated Alden, bearing the
word Successful This news estab-
fishes the safety of the plucky Philadel-
phian, who for the past year and a half
has been exploring the wilds of Eastern
Africa, and at the same time puts an
end to the doubt as to his safety, which
had been felt by those interested in the
expedition for the past few months. DR..
Smith entered Africa on the Eastern
coast a year ago last June, to push
across the country of the Galleas and
Massitos, two lakes which had recently
been discovered by another expedition;
thence ON to the two Nyanzas (Albert
and Victoria) his object being to carry
out and
Complete the Line of Exp Grafton
from the lakes to the east coast, dis.
tance of several hundred miles.
AS the region which DR.. Smith khas
traversed is at the present time repre-
sented by blank space on the map Of
Africa, the significance Of the explorer
brief message will be realized imme.
diately. He has undoubtedly made !;
great many discoveries of much value.

TANNERIEs ARE CLOSED DOWN

Thousands of Employees of the Leather
Trust Out of Work.
New YORK. Nov. 6.-The World says:
The United States Leather company,
known as the leather trust, has shut
down the 100 tanneries under its con
troll. Not another hide will be taken
from its watts for 60 days During the
80 days that the 100 tanneries are closed
more than $4,000 laborers, tanners,
clerks and employees generally will be
without work. The meeting at which
the lookup was decided upon was held a
few days ago at the Office Of the trust.
The concerns shut up represent 80 per
cent of the hemlock tanneries and 40 per
cent Of the union, the latter So called
because they use a combination of hem
lock and oak bark in tanning. Few of
the strictly oak tanneries are included,
as they are mostly out of the trust.

Deep Waterway Association Offic ais Ap-
prove Canal Commissioners.
TORONTO, Ont, Nov. 6.-The an
nouncement made in Washington that
President Cleveland had appointed three
commissioners to confer with a similar
number from Canada on the subject OF
deep waterways, has revived local inter-
est in the work Of the. Deep Waterway
association, which was originally
formed in this city in the summer
of 1894, and whose recent convention
in Cleveland did much to further
its objects. Mr.. Rowland, presi-
dent of the Deep Waterways associa-
ton, says the American commissioners
would prove admirably suited for this
work. He was especially pleased at the
nomination Of Cooley, who he said is an
engineer Of great ability. He said this
was the beginning of a most important
work. Nothing is SO far known as to
whom the Canadian government will
put upon the commission but it is ex-
pected that the gentlemen elected will
be Mr.. Rowland, one of the govern
ment's chief engineers, and some one
other whose name has not yet been men,
toned.

Latest Returns From Ohio Show tn
Biggest Majority Ever Given
for State Ticket.
THE LATEST.

ST. PAUL, Nov. 6.-Returns from yes
terday's election show republican sue.
cess in all states with the exception Of
Virginia, Mississippi and Missouri. All
of the states which were considered
doubtful have gone republican. The
republicans carry New York, New
Jersey, Ohio, Maryland, Kentucky,
Iowa, Utah, Massachusetts, and all
states except those three first named.
The Gorman.forces have been defeated
in Maryland, and the democrats have
lost Kentucky by 5000 to 10000. Ohio
is republican by a large majority, and
New York state is republican, although
in the city, the Tammany ticket was
elected.
The latest returns are that in New
York state the legislature is republican
by 68 on joint ballot. This insures re-
publican successor to Senator Hill.
In Kentucky, the state and legislative
tickets were elected by the republicans.
Bradley, republican candidate for COVER
nor, has a plurality of 5000 to 10000.
The legislature will be democratic on
joint ballot, because Of democratic hold
overs.
In Utah, the result is in doubt, al
though the outlook is favorable to re
publicans, who claim the state by 1,DO.
The democrats claim a majority of 300
to 500.
In Maryland, the republican majority
is about $4,000. The legislature is re-
publican by small majority.
In Ohio, the latest returns show that
the majority on the state ticket will be
the largest ever given in a general state
election. Young Garfield was elected
state senator in his fathers old district
by $4,000 majority.
IN GENERAL.
The results in all states is favorable
to the republicans. Full returns not
yet received, but the only question
is as to how many thousand majority
4 will be had by the republicans.

W1NNEBAGo City, Mimi, Nov. g.
Dr.V. A. Moore of the bureau of animal
industry of the department of agricul-
ture, Washington, in company with DIR.
Charles N. Hewitt of the Minnesota
state board Of health, have gone to Min
neapolis after very busy day in exam
lining into the nature of the disease now
working death in the herds of swine in
this vicinity. They took with them a
large number Of specimens Of diseased
parts, which they will take at once to
the laboratory Of the University Of Min
nesota for scientific examination.
1t Is n Contagious Pneumonia.
DR.. Moore confirms. the opinion held
here by many that the disease is not
cholera. He states that there are two
diseases that become contagious among
hogs-hog cholera, which is a typhoid
fever and is similar to typhoid fever in
the human system, and contagious
pneumonia, or in popular language,
swine plague, which is similar to pneu-
monia in the human system Accord
ing to the authority Of DR.. Moore, the
disease now prevailing here is conta-
gious pneumonia. If the doctor is right
the hope Of the farmers that the cold
weather would check the plague will
prove vain. The question with which
the farmers met DR.. Moore was, "What
can we do to save our hogs?" To that
he answered, Nothing for those al.
ready diseased For those not diseased
new pens in new field and immediate
isolation of any that show symptoms OF
disease In the last few weeks the
farmers in this county have met witt
losses from the plague estimated at $50,
| 900 or $4,000.

BALTIMORE, Nov. 6.-The heaviest
vote ever polled in Maryland was cast,
amid scenes of almost unparalleled ex-
citement, accompanied by occasional
acts OF lawlessness and disorder. The
first shooting affray of the day took
place at the First precinct of the Ninth
ward, before the polls opened, when
John Smith, Democratic watcher, was
shot in the left breast and slightly
wounded by Horace E. Van Tassell, a
Republican. The latter was arrested.
Two hours later, in the same precinct,
Charles G. Baldwin, one of the watch
ers for the Reform league, was severely
cut over the right eye in a fight that
occurred over an attempt to arrest a re-
peater. Several arrests were made.

! OF the meat-consuming civilized ma
lions Of the world the United States
heads the list with 12O pounds yearly
for each head Of population, or about
five ounces a day. Great Britain fol-
lows closely, with consumption Of 40
pounds yearly for each head Of popula-
ton. Germany exceeds this average,
and promises to lead in the near future
all the nations in it's consumption Of
meat. The people Of Berlin exceed all
other civilized nations in the quantity
which they consume per capita-twc
and one-half pounds daily. In addi-
ton to other flesh they absorb that Of
about 1000 horses annually. This elor-
nous consumption of meat is considered
the reason why Berlin people are 50
susceptible to blood poisoning. Paris

per capita per annum. The average Of
Portugal is lower than that OF any other
