DECATUR, Ind, Oct. 20.-The wife Of
Shelby Henderson, a liveryman of this
city, became suddenly deranged this morn
ing and attempted to murder her child and
husband. She poured coal oil over q bed,
threw their two-year-old child on it and
then set fire to the bed clothing. The
father grabbed the child from the burning
bed and took it to another room, then re-
turned and extinguished the flames. Later
the mother again secured the child and
was in the act of throwing it in a cistern
when the father came to the rescue and
took the child to a neighbor's. She then
declared she would kill her husband, who
fed from the house. Thristing for a desire
to kill both child and husband she came
down street barefooted and lightly clad,
swearing and screaming. She rushed
through the streets, and when last seen
was running along the road east of town.
Domestic trouble is given as the cause
of the WOman'S actions.

WEYLER
Facts in Regard to the Attempt to
Search the Vigilancia.

WASHINGTON, Oct. Cot is stated by
officials that the reports coming from New
Orleans as to an exciting controversy at
Havana between Gen. Fitzhugh Lee, CONSUL
general, and General, Weyler over the at
tempted apprehension of a Mexican named
Fernandez on board the American ship
Vigilancia, give an unwarranred signiti-
canoe and Importance TO the event. The
facts as reported are substantially these:
General Weyler ordered the arrest OF Fer
nandez as a suspect, not knowing at the
time of the issuance of the order that he
was on board an American ship. Later,
General Lee notified the Spanish authorf-
ties that the Vigtlancia was an American
ship, which, under our treaty rights, had
an immunity from search and seizure for
suspects in transit to other pCrtS. General
Weyler promptly acceded to the position
taken by General Lee, and the affair ended.
No protests or claims were submitted to
Washington by either side. 1t is said pos
itively that reports that General Weyler
ever ~ntempla firing on the Vigilancia
or trained the guns on the ship are in
correct.
The doctrine maintained by the United
States in cases like that of Fernandez is
that any foreign ship not a national vessel
or man of war, entering a port subjects
herself to the local laws of the place. Con-
seQuently, if there should be on board a
fugitive from justice he can be reclaimed
by the local officers, providing it is done
strictly according to due process of law.
1t is in just this proviso that Fernandez
found safety, and in this his case is a
parallel to that of the American merchant.
Samuel Tolon, who was taken off an Amer
lean steamer at Havana, but afterwards
was released by the Spanish officials on
Consul-general Lees demand. In Tolon's
case the Spaniards failed to follow due
process of law, but arrested the man under
military process, and ii is opposed from
the press reports that this was
in F~ernandez's case. Captain General
Weyler has all along maintained that the
operations of civil law were entirely suS-
pended in Cuba during the progress of the
rebellion, and that martial law reigned SUI
preme. Under this construction he arrested
Tolon, and doubtless to arrest
Fernandez. But the United States has
taken the contrary position, and in this has
been sustained by the superior authorities
at Madrid, who beyond question foresaw
that if they supported Weyler's contention
it would amount to such an admission of
a state of actual war as would not permit
of the further delay of recognition by for
eign powers, and perhaps of even the
graver steps of formal recognition of the
independence of the insurgents. Therefore.
the only manner in which Fernandez could
have been held by Weyler would have been
under civil process, and it is ssumed that
either he had no opportunity to complete
the. necessary formalities or found him
self lacking in the proof that would be re-
CURED TO sustain his case before the civil
courts of Cuba.

Bryanite dollar is the silver dollar, doubled
in value. The crime of '73" demonetized
silver and destroyed half its value. The
mission of the Bryanites is to restore
this value and make silver worth S1@ per
ounce instead Of 63 cents. as at present.
1t has been only by the sharpest kim of

his two dollars in separate pockets, SO they
wouldn't interfere with each other, and his
success, so far. has been creditable TO his
dexterity, if not to his honesty. On Thurs
day last, however. in making his steenth
speech for the day in one of the little
Michigan towns. he apparently got con-
fused in his mind and mixed those two
dollars up in the most disastrous fashion.
He started with the gold dollar too dear
and the silver dollar too cheap, all right
enough. but before he got through he had
the silver dollar worth about two gold dol
lars and the gold dollar worth only 90
cents. His audience didn't find out where
he was at until the train moved off.

GOOD REPUBLICAN NEWS.
Bartholomew County VIII Give a Ma
iOrity for Mckinley.

Special to the Indianapolis Journal.
COLUMBUS, Ind, Oct. 20.-From present
indications this county, Bartholomew, will
go Republican at the coming election. The
Republican managers claim the county by
at least 200 majority, of which $50 will be
in this city and so in the outlying dis
tricts. Their claim is admitted by many
prominent Democrats as having good foun-
dation. One Democrat in particular, who
was once a candidate for Congress from
this district, said he believed the county
would give 300 majority for Mckinley. The
county has been Democratic for many
years. There are a great many boiling
Democrats in this city and county. M. T.
Reeves, S. c. Reeves and NJ. O. Reeves, of
the firms of Reeves & Co.. and the Reeves
Pulley Company, who have heretofore been
strong Democrats, will vote for Mckinley
and Sulzer. The firm of Reeves & Co.,
which SG m~anufactures farm implements,

Reeves Pulley Company, both state that
they viii shut down if Bryan is elected for
firm of Mooney e. Sons, proprietors Of the
largest tannery in the West, will vote the
Republican ticket for the first time. Many
money sentiment is strong in the southern
part of the county. B. f.. Kobbe, a former
Democratic Representative, is a leader in
Wayne township, and is strongly in favor
of sound money. His constituents will in
all probability vote for Mckinley.
Hon. John w. Linck, of Madison, made a
strong Republican speech at Azalia last
night. This place is a Quaker settlement
and there are but thirteen Democrats in
the township. 1t is the home of Washing
