HORACE RUBLEE DEAD.
Editor of the Milwaukee Sentinel
Passes AWay-Had Been Ill
Two Years.

Milwaukee, Wis, Oct. 19.-Horace
Rublee, for sixteen years editor of the
Sentinel and the Republican News, which
absorbed the Sentinel, died at his resi-
dence, II Prospect avenue, at twenty
minutes to / o'clock this morning. The
end came peacefully and without pain,
and after several hours of unconscious
ness Mrs. Rublee and his two sons,
William A. Rublee and George Rublee,
were constantly with him during the last
days of his illness and when he passed
away. AS late as yesterday morning he
was able to see friends who called and
whom he met with the same cheerfulness
that he had shown during his long i'll
ness and which he maintained as long as
he retained consciousness.
Mr.. Rublee's illness has extended over
a period of two years. While in the best
of physical health in the summer of 1894
an enlargement of the glands of the
throat took place. At first it was not re-
garded as serious, but the growth later
became rapid and it was decided to be
tuberculosis. In the winter of 1894 an
operation was deemed advisable and the
growth was removed by DR.. Sem of Chi
cago. This operation, it was hoped,
would be effective i'll staying the progress
of the disease. Although much weak

went to California, returning in the early

for several months past he had been con-

taking leave of his associates, that he
would probably never be able to meet

THE INDIANA WAS IN PERIL.
Her Turrets Worked Loose During the
Recent Gale.


New York, Oct. 16.-The battleship
Indiana, which arrived, along with the
rest of Admiral Bunce's feet, was badly
used up by the storm which ragged so
violently at sea during the forepart of
the week, and came near the end of it's
career.
At 10 o'clock Monday night the In
diana set up signals to the flagship that
the S-inch turret in the after battery had
become loose. She was plunging about
under reduced steam, the officers bur
dened with the dread that the weight of
steel and iron might at any minute be
heaved over upon and destroy the ship.
Soon after the first signal was dis
played a second was set up that the 49,
inch turret in the fore part of the ship
had also been ripped from the clamps.
1t was spinning around and it's great gun
was swinging viciously back and forth
as the vessel plunged.
On Tuesday, after desperate fight
with the disarranged machinery, the tur-
rets were fastened with clamps and
hawsers. During all of Monday night
the squadron made only forty miles.
The full injury to the turrets has not
been ascertained.

WINNINGS IN WHEAT,
Milwaukee Traders Are Said to Hove
Made Large Sums on the Rise.

The advance Of cents in wheat since
interest and activity on change today,
and it was currently reported Oh the
floor at the close of trading that several
of the Milwaukee dealers had made $685.
600 to $4,000 since the close yesterday.
1t is also reported that one well-known
dealer in this city has cleared between
$4,000 and 100000 on wheat during the
past two or three weeks.
The announcement that two American
steamers sailed today for Calcutta, load
ed with wheat for India, was one of the
principal causes of the upward tendency
and the famine in India is taken as
clear indication that much more Ameri-
can wheat will go there and that the
prices will remain up and continue to rise
for some time to come. People are again
predicting 81 wheat before January 1.
