HEILPERN NOT SHORT.
Poor Health and Dependency
Caused His Suicide.

Leo HeilDern's suicide was not prompted
by fear Of arrest, as was at first supposed,
for his accounts with the insurance company
are all straight A letter to his landlady ex-
plains the rash act very fully, as the follow
ing extract will show: During the past few
months I have been every day troubled with
stomach cramps which / cannot endure any
longer. l am unable to attend to my duties
and earn what need, and, being abandoned
By family and friends have decided to quit
this world
Two small life insurance policies were found
among his effects, but both were inyalidated
by the suicide. Heilperns body was buried at
Woodlawn cemetery, Winona, yesterday,
Adolph Heilpern, his son, and ]. Kantrowitz,
of Minneapolis, being in attendance at the
ceremony.

WIND AND RAIN.
A Pennsylvania Town Also Visited
by the Tornado

NEWCASTLE, Pa, April 20.-The heaviest
wind storm that has ever visited this city
occurred this evening. The wind was &C
companied by sheets of rain, which for half
an hour fell in torrents. There were many
escapes from death. The front Of the Charles
Earle's store was blown in just as he was
at the transom endeavoring to close it, and
he had several teeth knocked out by flying
debris. The Central school building, one of
the largest in the city, was unroofed, and
much other damage done.
1t is believed that other and worse dam
age has been done in the country districts
in the wake of the storm.

having lost So killed and having IT'S wounded.
The gunboat Centenilla, while conveying a
schooner having on board soldiers and pro-
visions for the Spanish detachment at Zanja,
on the River Canto, was fired upon by the
insurgents, who were in strong force and
occupied advantageous positions. The sail
ors on board the gunboat and the soldiers on
board the schooner replied to the enemy's
fire, and eventually repulsed the enemy with
great loss. AS the ammunition supply on
beard both vessels was exhausted, the gun
boat steamed away and returned the next
day with fresh stock of cartridges. At the
entrance of the river the gunboat was again
fired upon, but she succeeded in beating off
the enemy and relieved the detachment at
Zanja.

ILLINOIS CONVENTION.
One Preliminary Victory Won by
the Anti-SiIver Men

the Anti-Silver Men.
CHICAGO, April 20.-The Democratic state
central committee Of Illinois today decided
to hold the Democratic state convention at
Peoria, Tuesday, June 20. The meeting was
comparatively tame, as the contending gold
and silver factions had their tilt before the
conference began. Secretary of State Hin
richsen, the official head Of the Democratic
machine, was there and had at his back many
of Gov. Altgeld's friends. Springfield made
plucky fight for the convention, but was
shy seven votes Of a majority. The only
crumb Of comfort the gold men got out of
the meeting was the apportionment of dele
gate representation on the Cleveland vote of
1892, which gives Cook county 1862 delegates
out of total Of 1,O67. This is what the anti
silver men earnestly desire, and the 16 to 1
men acceded to their request, stating that
the more delegates in the convention the bet
ter it would be for Altgeld and silver.

new method Of maintaining the gold
reserve:
NEW YORK, January G-Stsphen H. Emmons.
who Is President OF gold mining company At
Broadway, has sent an open letter 10 PreSi-
dent Cleveland Offering unique plan for
maintaining the gold reserve. He said In
part "If the Secretary OF the Treasury win
put himself in communication with the own
ers Of gold mines throughout the country he
can cause the entire gold production OF the
United States 60 be placed at the disposal Of
the government in exchange for silver coin.
so far, at any rate, as the mines which per-
sonally possess or direct, are concerned, am
willing to undertake that the output Of gold
"A very considerable amouns-shAll thus be
dealt with, and there cannot be any doubt OF
every other American gold mining corpora
tion being ready to do the same The assist
ance thus obtained by the government will
not involve any bond issue, and will not
saddle the nation with any interest charge or
syndicate remuneration. IL will add to tho
volume OF home currency at the same time
that Il win equally increase the amount OF in.
ternaionAl currency in the treasury"
It Ia safe to say that this plan will
not be adopted, for the reason that it
involves the coinage and circulation Of
silver, and the Demo Republican idea
of maintaining the parity of the two
metals" is to retire all the silver and
pay everything In gold.

LABOR LEGISLATION.
The knights of Labor and Kindred Organi-
cations Are at Work.

zatiOns Are at Work.
WASHINGTON, January II. - The
Labor committee of the House Of Rep.
resentstiVes has had no meeting as yet,
but Mr.. Phillips, the Chairman, ex.
poets to call it together very soon, and
hopes to secure some legislation by re-
porting his bills before the other COM
mittees of the House have loaded up
the calendar. One of the most impor
tsnt bills, and that which will receive
the early attention of the committee,
authorizes the appointment Of an in
dustrial com mission to be bipartisan
in its character, and composed of five
men representing labor, five men
representing capital, and FIVE men
representing the different branches
of agriculture, for the purpose Of max.
ing an investigation and reporting leg
islation that will improve the condition
of the agricultural and mechanical in
dustries for the benefit of both the en-
ployers and the employed. This bill
was introduced by Mr.. Phillips himself,
after consultation. with Col. Wright,
Commissioner of Labor; j. r. Sow
ereign, of the knights of Labor; Sam
uel Gompers, the head of the Fedora
tion of Labor, and other persons
interested.
Another bill, which comes from the
General Executive Board of the
Knights, is very much more compre.
hensive in its character, but aims at
the same idea. 1t proposes five COM
missions instead of one, who are to
make an investigation and report what
legislation is necessary to benefit all
classes. The first commission Is to be in
trusted with the interests Of the laboring
masses, and is to be composed of one
representative from each of the five
leading industries. The second is to
be composed of one banker, one mer-
chant, one manufacturer, one farmer
and one lsboring man, who are to re-
form our fiscal system, and report a
plan by which the credit of the govern
ment may be maintained and plenty OF
money furnished the people. The
third commission, likewise representa-
tive in character, is to suggest plan
for the disposition Of the remaining
public lands. The fourth is to inVes-
tigate the condition of agriculture and
organize some method Of relief for the
farmers of the country.
Another bill in which the Knights
take great interest provides for an
amendment to the constitution depriV-
ing the President of his present power
to appoint Judges Of the United States
courts, and arranging for their election
by direct vote of the people. This
measure is suggested by the interfer-
enee of the courts with the recent rail-
road strikes.
