The Armenian Immigrant Problem.

New York, Oct. 27.-When the party of
$50 Armenians arrived on the Hamburg
liner California on Thursday night were
taken to Ellis island Sunday they were
found to possess an average of S. each.
They were sent to join their countrymen
in the detention room, and now DIR. Sem

serious problem. In order to legally land
the majority of these persons bonds will
be necessary. On the other hand If the
bonds are not forthcoming and the Ar
menians are sent back, DIR. Senner be-
lieves it will be almost equivalent to sign
ing their death warrant.

better Mr.. Crisp was the choice of the
Democrats of Georgia to succeed Senator
John b. Gordon in the United States sem
ate and would have been chosen to that
position by the Legislature at its approach
ing session had he lived.
Death Came with Intense Pain.
Mr.. Crisp had been in intense pain all
day. Every few minutes he would suffer
greatly. But no danger was feared at
such an early moment. His wife, to-
gether with u sanitarium nurse Miss
Sharp, was watching at his bedside. At
about /: 40 o'clock Mr.. Crisp was seized
with another attack and quite suddenly
he passed into the calm of death. The
watchers saw it and sent down stairs for
DIR. Holmes. Judge Crisps two daugh-
ters, Mrs. Fred Davenport and Miss
Bertha Crisp, and his two sons, Charles
+. Crisp, Jr., and Fred Crisp, were at the
Ballard House on Peach Tree street. They
were quickly summoned. When they en-
tered the room Judge Crisp was still con-
scious. He gave them the look of recog-
milton, breathed few times and died. He
could not speak.
Dread Messenger Comes Quietly.
So quickly had the dread messenger
come that the stricken family stood ap-
palled in the death chamber Mr.. Crisp's
death, while apparently thus sudden, was
not unexpected by the physicians who
had been watching him. He had been
declining for several years. His last ill
ness, however, was occasioned by an at
tack of malarial fever which he contracted
at his home in Americus a few weeks ago,
but which itself yielded to treatment when
he came to Atlanta He was considered
convalescent and only last Sunday had
ridden out. But when renewed health
seemed in view he was attacked by con-
gestion of the lungs which, added to the
weakness Of the lungs and heart caused by
two previous attacks Of pleuro pneumonia,
resulted in his death.
Affects the Political Situation.
His untimely death throws the polit-
cal situation into chaos. and makes the
choice of senator a matter of great un-
certainty. The legislature is almost
unanimously for free silver, however,
and whoever is named will be an advo-
cate of that policy. Crisp had been at
the Holmes sanitarium five weeks suf-
fering from malarial fever. The imme-
date cause Of his death was heart fail
ure.
He was born in Sheffield, England. In
1861 he entered the Confederate army as a
lieutenant. After the war he studied law
He accepted the Democratic nomination
for congress In 1882. He was elected
speaker of the house for the Fifty second
congress and reelected for the Fifty-third

Definite arrangements have not been
completed concerning the funeral, but 1t
is understood that his body will ultimate

honor him. Honors befitting the high
station Mr.. Crisp has occupied in the state
and the nation will undoubtedly be paid
his memory by the general assembly,

lessness while in q certain city that
the detectives began to suspect him.
He refused to say what city he referred
to. His treatment in the French pris-

They have proved in my case to be good
thing"
Nature has provided certain amount Of
work for every organ of the human body;
overtax them and disease eventually follows.
There is not one portion of our organism
that is so overworked as the kidneys; on
them is placed the important function Of
filtering the blood of the impurities which
naturally form in the regular action of life
and digestion. The kidneysare consequently
termed the sewerage of the system; clog up
this sewer, and the blood becomes tainted
with poisonous uric acid. which brings on
disease in many forms. The back is the first
to show this stoppage. From there comes
the warning note; it should Lc needed, and
the kidneys receive prompt attention.
Doan's Kidney Pills viii right the action of
the kidneys quickly, relieve the back of pains
and aches and cure all troubles of the kid
news and bladder.

dealers-price so cents. Mailed by Foster

The rise was magnifled by covering of
speculative sellers who imagined the adj
vance had gone too far, but was at the
bottom based on the extraordinary foreign
demand which has engaged grain vessels
from all Pacific as well as Atlantic ports
for months ahead. How great the short
age in ordinary European supplies may
be is the point of doubt and speculation.
But none now question that shipments
from the Pacific coast to India and the de-
crease in the Russian yield are important,
and the buying Of enormous quantities for
export, with engagements of freight room
at higher rates, express the belief of Euro
pean dealers. The most striking feature
of industrial returns Is the number OF
contracts conditioned upon the election.

BATTLE ROYAL WITH THE FLAMES.

twenty-five Fire Engines Fail to Save
S1,5OO,O0O Worth of Property.
Chicago, Oct. N.-Twenty-five fire en-
gines and two steam fire tugs fought a
battle royal with a big blaze on Goose
Island at noon yesterday. The Pacific ele-
vators, owned by the Chicago and Pacific
Elevator company, were found to be on
dre at Has o'clock. The two elevators
were destroyed, together with number of
small frame buildings in the immediate
vicinity. The loss Is estimated at 81 800,
900. The locality is as dangerous as could
be selected for big fire. The two Pacific
elevators, A and b, were well filed with
wheat and of themselves would furnish
material for goodly confagration. Di-
rectly to the north is the Armour elevator,
the largest in the world, stocked to the
roof with grain. N
To the northeast is the immense malt
ing house of Hale g. Curtis, while withir
gunshot lie the coal shed and dock of ths
Crescent Coal company, stocked with
thousands of tons of bituminous coal.
Lumber yards in the immediate vicinity
offer further material for the spread of q
blaze, in addition to which there are any
number of frame cottages scattered
around. The Pacific elevator was COM
posed Of three separate buildings, each six
stories in height, and the heat caused by
the burning buildings was 80 intense that
the fremen were unable to get within a
block of the blaze. p. j. Perry, the grain
superintendent of the elevator, said that
there was over 1000, 900 bushels of wheat
stored in two of the buildings, known as
elevators A and B. Superintendent Perry
also said the building was valued at $500,
900, and is fully covered by insurance.

out it the machinery would wrench itself
out of shape. 1t is the same way with the
machinery of the human body: it needs
to go on steadily and regularly to be in
good health-not by fits and starts. The
sudden wrenching medicines which peo-

strengthen the intestines to do their own
