INHUMAN ATROCITIES.
BLOODY SPANIARDS MET MORE
THAN HALF WAY.
PHILIPPINE Island Revolt Producing Grimes
Unparalleled in the Dark Ages
Of the Worlds History.

Chicago, Oct. pa San Francisco
special to a local paper says: The
Cuban atrocities are mild compared to
those taking place in the Philippine
Islands, where the Spaniards are try
ing to suppress revolt of the natives.
Some indication of the state of affairs
has been learned from Oriental pa
pers.
The most shocking incident of the
bloody reprisals was the treatment
of a Spanish lieutenant and his fami-
ly. The Spanish had captured a
number of prisoners and as an object
lesson to the natives disembowelled
two of them and hung their bleeding
bodies, one on each of the gates of
the town.
The Infatuated rebels, hungry for re-
venge, gathered a force and hurried
to the home of a Spanish lieutenant
on the outskirts of Manila. They
captured the officer, his wife and II
year old daughter, and then began a
bloody scene of torture. The most
savage instincts of the natives were
aroused. Before the eyes of his wife
aud daughter the lieutenants skin was
slit all over his body. Then the tor
turers crucified him, pinning him out
stretched to a tree with their long
knives. They then turned to the
woman and girl and gave the fullest
play to their animal instincts and
wreaking a disgusting vengeance be-
fore the eyes of the dying husband
and father.
The Spanish authorities are doing
their best to keep the news Of these
atrocities from leaving the island.
They particularly desired to keep I'M
known the death of thirty-eight pris-
oners in one night in the "Black
Hole"

BRAZIL ADVICES.

Her First Statesman Has A Plan For
A South American Union of
Republics.
New York, Oct. 21.-The Herald's
correspondent in Rio Janeiro, Brazil,
telegraphs that the Brazilian foreign
minister, Senior Cerequierra, strongly
opposes a proposition now before the
chamber of deputies to increase the
duties on all productions of the River
Platte republics.
The minister believes those repub-
lies would retaliate in kind. The
minister's plan is that a great South
American union should be formed
composing Brazil, Chile, Argentina,
Uruguay. The main features of the
union to be analogous to those of the
German zol-verein.
The Italian cruiser Piedmonte will
sail at once for Rio Grande.
The foreign minister declares that
Signor Brichanteaux, Italian consul
at San Paulo, must be removed. The
Italian government had promised to
recall him upon the termination of
negotiations in the Brazilian
question.
The commercial situation in Brazil
is gradually improving.

FILTHY CANALS.
MENACE TO PUBLIC HEALTH OF
NEW ORLEANS.
Extensive System of Drainage to be In
augurated by the Municipal Au-
thOrities For Remedy.

New Orleans, Oct. Plat a meeting
of the board of health. the filthy con-
ditiOn of the drainage canals Of the
city, and the necessity of cleansing
them, came up, and was extensively
discussed. The discussion, however,
gave no clear idea of the condition of
these important works. One must
visit, and see, and smell them, to re-
alize the horrible condition they are
in.
If there is any foundation in fact
for the theory that disease is genera
ted and propagated by filth, it must
be conceded that these filthy canals
are a constant menace to the ctiy's
health, and any civilized government
would take immediate steps to remedy
the evil.
These canals are to constitute part
of the far-reaching drainage system
that is projected, and money expended
on them would not be squandered, but
would only advance the work that is
to be done, and right here we may
express the hope that the drainage
commission being organized speedy
steps will be taken to inaugurate the
work. There is large fund on hand
for this work, and there seems to be
little doubt that ample money can
be raised to prosecute the scheme
adopted to a successful end. The
drainage of the city is just now the
most vitality important problem on
hand, and it is to be hoped that the
city authorities and the commission
will let no grass grow under their
feet, but will promptly cooperate to
make an early start with this work.
At any rate, the existing drainage
canals should be Immediately looked
to. There are great many improve
ments going on along the lines Of
some of these canals, and if they
were cleaned out the improvements
would be much more numerous, and
would add largely to the assessments
of the city,and, hence, to its revenues.

CIRCUS ACCIDENT.
Acrobat Durham Turns A Trifie Too
Much And Alights On His Head.

Acrobat Durham Turns A Trifle Too
Much And Alights On His Head.
Chicago, Oct. 21.-While the Dun
ham family was doing its aerial bar
act at Barnum's circus in the Colise-
um one of the members, John, met
with an accident which is likely to
prove fatal. Dropping from a bar
eighty feet to a net below, his body
turned too much and alighted almost
full on the head. The acrobat lay
where he had fallen and the atten-
dants being near by picked Durham
up, laid him on the sawdust and call
ed for a physician.
An examination showed the spine of
the acrobat had been severely injur-
ed. Although he retained conscious
ness he was unable to move and his
lower limbs seemed paralyZed. A
carriage was called and he was taken
to the Chicago hospital, where the
physicians regarded his hopes of re-
covery as small.
John Durham and the Durham FAM
lily have been well known to the pub
lie for many years. The aerial bar
act in which he was injured last night
has been regarded as one of great
risk but this is the first time in six
years that any accident has resulted.
The injured man is % years of age.

NEW SIN FIGHTERS.
OFFICERS OF THE NEW CHURCH
ARMY NAMED.
Description of the Uniforms to be Worn
They Will be in the Field Be-
fore the Snow Falls.

New York, Oct. 21.-The Herald to-
day says that before the snow flies
the United States church army will
have begun vigorous campaign
against sin.
This is the prediction of those in
terested in the new evangelical move
ment of the Protestant Episcopal
church and its realization is assured
from the fact that a complete plan
of organization and operation already
exists and well equipped expert
mental army is even now in the field,
having seen four months of active
service.
The resolutions passed by the exec
utive committee of the Parochial Mis-
sions society were the formal endorse
ment and acceptance of the scheme
by the church authorities.
1t has been definitely settled that
Col. Hadley will be appointed mill
tary director of the department of the
Atlantic under the supervision of a
clerical head and with headquarters
in this city. His staff officers will be
as follows: Chief of staff, Major
Samuel f. Jones, superintendent Of
Stephens Rescue mission, Boston;
aide-de-camp, Major Sarah Wray, the
song evangelist; chief adjutant, Maj.
James X. Blackwell, superintendent
Brotherhood Rescue mission, also
commanding officer of the regiment
U. S. G. A., Pittsburg, Pa; field mar
shall, Major Alexander III. Leo, Phila-
delphia; and musical director, Major
Brown, New York.
"Old Glory" has been chosen for the
flag of the army, with the stars left
out and in their place white cross
on a blue field. The dress coat for
staff officers will be long frock coat
of black broadcloth with brass but
tons, a band of gold braid around the
sleeves and gold epaulettes. The epau-
lettes are in the form Of cross, the
insignia of rank being the same as
those employed in the regular army.
A cross Of black braid ornaments the
cuff of the garment. Under the
coat the officers will wear tight Mt
ting high cut clerical vest of light
blue cloth with buttons at the side.
On the breast, outlined in silver
braid, is an escutcheon bearing the
letters U. s. A. above the monogram
G. A. A pair Of black trousers with
the gold stripe down the seams and a
SLOUGH campaign hat of light brown
with the monogram in front, completes
the officers dress uniform. The uni
form of the private will be similar
in style to that worn by the United
States soldiers. Dark green, gold or
light blue with silver trimmings will
be the colors according to the charac-
ter of the service to be performed.

HAVE TROUBLES ENOUGH.

Philadelphia, Oct. CIV. J. Nc
Cahan, Jr., the head of the Mexican
sugar refinery in this city, who is
classed as a manufacturer indepen-
dent of the sugar trust, denies that a
combination has been formed to COM
pete with the trust.
The story included the McCahan re-
finery as one of the plants in the al
legged combination. Mr.. McCahan
said:
There is no such combination that
l know of and as we are mentioned
as being in the deal, 1 should think
we ought to know. We have troubles
enough of our own with the imported
German sugar to prevent any fight of
this kind being started by the indie
pendent manufacturers. There is
nothing in it."

ABOUT GAS.
RECEIVERS APP0INTEDEFOR A BIG
CORPORATION.
The Officers Claim the Concern is Solvent
And Their Millions of Indebted
ness Is All Squared.

Wilmington, Del, Oct. 21.-Ex-Sen-
ator Higgins has applied to Judge
Wales in the United States court for
receivers for the Bay State Gas COM
pany of this city and Boston. The
application was granted and ]. A. Nc
Cauley, president of the Artisans
Saving bank, of this city, were named
as the receivers. Bonds in the sum
of $4,000 each were given. VIM.
Buchanan, of New York, is the COM
plainant.
Late in the afternoon Mr.. McCau-
ley, one of the temporary receivers,
acting upon advice of counsel for Blu
chanan, made a demand at the COM
pany's office here for the contents of
desk there ON the belief that certain
papers would be found. Clerk Chas.
II. Graft, who was in charge, declin-
ed to open the desk and a locksmith
was sent for and the desk forced open.
1t is reported that nothing was found
in it.
Up to O'clock at night notice of
lllt VI lllt NOull dppolhtlhes
receivers for the company had not
been served by Marshal Lannan upon
President J. Edward Addicks. Mr..
Addicks is said to be in New York.
New York, Oct. 21.-Wm. Buchan-
an. of New York, who petitioned in
Delaware for a receiver for the Bay
State Gas company, was cited to ap-
IN, n nnlion n
charge against him by Camille Wei
denfield, of the firm of Lawson &
Weidenfield, of Boston and New York.
The summons was issued by Judge
Wentworth, city magistrate, on depo-
sitions which set forth that ''the said
Buchanan had circulated false state
ments, rumors and intelligence con-
corning the Bay State Gas company,
of Delaware, by stating that it was
insolvent and bankrupt, and that the
president had diverted millions of dol
lars of its capital stock to his own
use, and the said Buchanan threat
ened that he would ruin the said pres
ident if he had to spend $150,OOO to
accomplish that end; that he had ar
ranged to bring suit against the COM
pany and secure a receiver for it IN
less he was paid $235,000 for his Sc
curities by IL o'clock, Friday, Oct. IS;
if this was paid him he would with
draw his suit and stop all operations
in the matter; that unless this pay
ment, was made the suit in Delaware
would be pushed and the whole mat
ter would be published in the evening
papers of the day.
With the deposition was filed an aft
davit by the treasurer of the Bay
State Gas company, setting forth, I'M
der oath, that the corporation was
not insolvent or bankrupt; that, on
the contrary, during the present year
he paid off all the indebtedness,a one
time amounting to over one million
dollars; that at the present time it
has only a small amount Of current
debt and cash on hand to a considera-
BILE amount. The treasurer further
alleges that the president has not stol-
en- any of it's capital stock and so far
as the new issue is concerned, he has
not received or owned a single share
of it.
