TOO MUCH ;scORcHING.
Two Connecticut Cyclists Die of Ap-
 pendicitis.

. ANSONIA, Conn.,, July 14-James Hoar, 16 years old, died soon after an operation for appendicitis had been performed on him at his fathers home in this city last night. Dr. Carmalt of New Haven, the operating physi- elan, said the boys death was due to excessive bicycle riding.
 Young Hoar last Decoration Day rode to West Haven, then to New Haven, Cheshire, Waterbury and back to Ansonia, and that evening he be- came i'll. He recovered sufficiently from the attack to be around, but was not really we'll, and last Saturday morning he was prostrated again. The family physician treated him, but, remedies proving unavailing, the op- eration was performed yesterday after noon.
 The incision showed the intestines to be so knotted together that it was inn possible to straighten them.
 A young man named Hoyt, of Derby, died after similar operation a short time ago. He was also a bicyclist and had used his wheel excessively, riding long distances. He became ill, ap- parently recovered and was stricken with appendicitis. The operation re- vealed a condition of the intestines similar to that found in Hoar.

It Has Lately Been Very
 Successful.
American lnSurgent Captain
 Captured by Spanish.
A Belief that Antonio Maceo Was Killed Through Deep
 Treachery.

WASHINGTON. July 14.-H re- quires seventy-one printed pages in the volume of foreign relations to set out the correspondence which has passed between the United States and Spain during the year 1895.
 The chapter on Spain begins with the celebrated Moro case, which hay ing been settled satisfactorily by the payment of an idemnity by Spain of a million and half dollars, is now a closed incident. Next in order comes the Allianca incident. The Spanish government showed it's entire readi- ness to do everything that interna- tional law requires to smooth away the bad impression made by the incident
 A short letter from United States Minister Taylor to Secretary Gresham in February, 1895, tells a story of dip lomatic victory that from it's business value deserves a prominent place in the volume. This was the final con- cession by the Spanish government to United States citizens of the right to pay minimum import duties on goods sent to Cuba.
 A premonition of claims to be pre- ferred against Spain appears in several letters of Atkins & Co. of Boston to Secretary Olney, giving notice of the destruction of the valuable Soledad sugar estates by insurgents. Incl dentally they note that the insurgents are mainly negroes.

She was <held fast on the rocks and could not be moved in spite of all the efforts of her skipper. To add to the alarm it was soon found that one com- partment was filling with water.
 Signals of distress attracted the at tention of the keeper of the Pigeon Point lighthouse, who in turn notified the authorities of this village.
 A number of ranchers and seamen went as soon as possible to the remote point where the Colombia is wedged in the rocks, but those on shore could do nothing to relieve the ship or her pas sengers.
 The tugs Active and Reliance were ordered by wire from San Francisco and word has been received that they have started for this port.
 SANTA CRUZ, Cal, July 14.-The steamer Eureka arrived tonight from San Francisco. Her captain reported he spoke the steamer Colombia this afternoon and went to her assistance, but the captain declined aid. She lies among rocks and is in dangerous po- sition. The passengers were safely landed this afternoon.

TELLER FOR BRYAN.
He Will Not Be a Candidate at St.
 Louis.

DENVER, July 14.-Senator Teller has returned to Denver from Manitou, where he has been in conference with Senator Dubois of Idaho and Congress- man Hartman of Montana as to the course silver Republicans shall pur- sue in the approaching campaign. They have postponed their conference until other silver senators can arrive They will probably then issue state ment of their position.
 Senator Teller makes no conceal ment of his intention to support MT. Bryan for the presidency. He says he is satisfied that MT Bryan will make the financial question paramount to all others in the campaign and that if elected he will devote himself with great singleness of purpose to securing return to National bimetallism.
 Teller will not permit the use of his name at the St. Louis Populist or silver conventions.

Illinois Goldbugs Want

The Populists Are Rallying to
 Bryan.
The Presidential Candidate Has AL ready Begun Ills Campaign
 In Illinois.

CHICAGO, July 14.-The executive committee of the gold standard Demo- crats of Illinois met in a protracted session today and prepared an ad- dress to the Democracy of the other states in the Union.
 It was the unanimous opinion Of the committee that second National con- vention should be called to nominate candidates for president and vice president.
 The address says in part: "The sound money Democrats owe it to the country to make it certain at once that their revolt against free silver is determined and will be organized. It is unfair to oblge the credit of the na- tion and the business and industrial interests of the people to merely guess what sound money Democrats will do in November and to wait until .Novem- Der to find out

The Deed ofa Desperate
 FrenChman.
He Only Wanted to Have a
 Hearing.
The President Escapes Unhurt and the Miscreant Is Taken Into
 Custody.

PARIS. July 14.-An attempt was made on the life of President Faure to- day.
 The president, however. escaped un- harmed.
 President Faure went to the Champs today to review the troops. He had no sooner reached the field when a man in the field stepped forward and fired at him. The shot did not take effect.
 The would4be assassin was arrested. He declared that he only fired blank cartridge.
 When it became known in the crowd that the president had not been hurt by the pistol shot cheer was sent up.
 The name of the miscreant is given as Francois. It appears that some time ago in order to draw attention to supposed grievance he fired revolv- CT in the hall of the chamber of depu- ties. Francois declares he had no de- sire to harm the president, and the sole purpose of his act was to secure hearing by the president of his griev- ance.

LEGISLATURE TO CONVENE.
Governor of Wisconsin May Act to
 Relieve Distress.

MADISON, Wis, July 14.-A special session of the Wisconsin legislature is probable to relieve the distress caused by the recent supreme coure decision, holding invalid the village corporation law.
 A delegation from the village of Wauwatosa, a suburb of Milwaukee, has appeared before Governor Upham and asked him to call a special ses- sion. Wauwatosa has been enjoined by Court Commissioner Krez of the Milwaukee circuit court, from exercis- ing any of its functions as village.
 The action was brought by a sa- loon keeper, who was refused license. The governor gave the delegation to understand that if it could be shown that villages were wiped out and that there was no other remedy, he would call special session ofthe legislature

BLAND FOR GOVERNOR.
Stephens Will Step Down in Favor of
 ''Silver Dick"

SEDALIA, Mo-, July 1.-The Demo- crats of Sedalia are very much disap- pointed over Bland's failure to get the presidential nomination. It was here in Woods opera house during the Democratic state convention last spring that Silver Dicks presidential boom was launched Bland was the idol of the free silver Democrats of Pettis county, and when it was an nounced that Bryan had been nomi- mated, a meeting of prominent Demo- crats was held and 1t was decided to boom the Lebanon man for governor. Lon V. Stephens, who has already practically secured the nomination for governor, will be asked to step aside and keep the promise he has made that in the event of Bland's failure to se- cure the presidential nomination he would turn his delegates over to Silver Dick and work for his nomination for governor.

0. R. T. TROUBLE SETTLED.
The Wabash Railroad Forswears Dis
 crimination.

PEORIA, H., July 14.-The difficulty between the Wabash railroad and the Order of Railway Photographers has been adjusted and the boycott exist ing since May 1, has been declared off. It was proclaimed because the Wa bash, it was charged, discriminated against members of the order in en- ploying telegraphers and making pro motions. Superintendent Ginsman of Decatur, after lengthy interview with Grand Chief Powell yesterday, agreed that members of the order shall be employed and promoted without discrimination. It is stated by one of the grand officers of the order of te- legraphers that the form of application used by the Wabash contains the question: Are you a member of any labor organization?"

ON THE ROCKS.
A Pacific Mail Steamer Goes Ashore in
 Fog.

PESCADHRO. Cal. July 1.-The Pacific Mail steamship Colombia from Acapulco to San Francisco, went ashore at o'clock this morning on the rocks near Pigeon Point, a rocky prom ontory, about five miles from Pesca- dero, jutting into Monterey bay.
 There was heavy fog last night and this morning along the coast and it was impossible to see twenty yards ahead. The Colombia was nearer the shore than her skipper realized and before her course could be altered those on board could hear the rocks scraping her keel.
 In an instant, all was confusion on board the Colombia. Sixty passengers came up from Acapulco and they were just turning out when the steamer ran on the rocks.
 The captain and officers managed to quiet the passengers and started to work the steamer from her position.

TAKES IT BACK.
The Silver Knight Apologies to In-
 gals.

KANSAS CITY, July 14.--The edit orial that will appear in tIis weeks issue of the Silver Knight National Watchman of Washington, D. C., con- cerning the publication of the alleged Ingalls, letter, reads as follows:
 ''Prior to the Republican National convention it was announced by the New York Journal that ex-Senator h. gals would act as it's special corres- pendent. He did so Amongst the special double-leaded telegrams from the convention which appeared in the New York Journal was one which we reprinted i'll the Silver Knight Watch man of June 25. AS MT. Ingalls, was the special correspondent of The Jour nal, and as the description of the sil- yer secession was written in what ap- peared to be his inimitable style, and as it was an article of which MT. h. gals might well be proud, we gave him credit for it's authorship. We regret to learn from MT. Ingalls, that he does not claim the honor of being the author; in fact, he expressly disclaims it. AS the mere idea that he could have written such battle blast for silver has aroused rancor amongst the gold-benighted Republicans of Kansas, we wish it distinctly understood that the article was not signed by MT. h. gals, and we had no reasons for be- lieving him the author other than those Stated.''

VICTORY FOR SILVER.
Says the Democrats May Carry New
 York

NEW YORK, July 14-Frederick R. Coudert gives up the battle and prac- tically admits the free silver victory in November He makes the announce ment in the following telegram to the Commercial Advertiser: ''It is a nice question whether the losses on the Democratic ticket by reason of the sil- yer plank will not be offset by defec- tions from the Republican ranks.
 Quite a number of Democrats will vote with the Republicans and other Democrats will not vote at all next Mo- vember. On the other hand. the Re- publicans will lose many votes by vir- tue of their gold plank. Let me say in conclusion that the silver people, by means of the prestige of the great Democratic party, as well as it's grand organization, may carry New York state after all. Stranger things than that have happened"
