CORPSE in COURT.
Bitter Fight Between Two Under
takers in Denver.

Chicago, Nov ia special from Denver,
Colo. says: The death of John B. Nc Mullen,
Of Bristol, Conn.,, has caused bitter quar-
rel between undertakers Hall and Miller.
Hall has a contract with the county by
which he. buries paupers for about / cent
a corpse, taking chances on making money
in the event that relatives appear.
McMullen died in the county hospital and
Hall took the body. Then Attorney A. L.
Morris, who knew the dead mans relatives,
placed the funeral arrangements in the
hands of c. N. Miller, ne not being able To
reach an agreement with Hall as to ex.
penses. Hall refused to surrender the body
and the county commissioners gave Miller an
order for It.
Then Hallswore out an nattachment forthe
body and carted it ba OK to his place. Mil
Ter then obtained writ OF replevin, put
up a redelivery bond and took the corpse,
placing a guard over 1t.
Then Mrs. Mary Jane McGlade, OF Bristol,
Conn, authorized the embalming and ship
ping of the body and 800 for services was
guaranteed by anexpress company when the
body was delivered to 1t here.
| Hall will carry the case to the court Of
last resort.

HIT BY The WILSON BILL
Lccal Business Firm Suffers From
a Closed Factory.
Prospect That the Republican Ad-
ministration VIII Open Up This
With Other Lines of Trade.

The change in industrial conditions to
be brought about by the Mckinley admin
istration is Illustrated by communication
received in this city this morning by
Haller & Richards Wall Paper Co., 1880
Ii street north west, from Furst Bros, a
Baltimore firm.
II says: "will ship you some one and "a
hall-inch plain gilt rod on Friday. We
are having hard Time to get leaf; reason
OF delay, Wilson bill closed our American
factory, and the German workmen are on a
strike"
The man who VICE the above has him
SELF been Democrat for many years i'll the
First ward in Baltimore. But when the
Wilson tariff cut off his ability to do busi-
ness i'll some directions, and greatly cur
taieditinothers, and when this was followed
by the declaration for free silver and a
Bryan panic, he abandoned his old political
associates and came out for sound money
and a protective s.ariff. He now says
he is q straightout Republican.
The prospect of the passage Of the Ding
ley bill raises the hope that the closed fac
tory referred to will reopen. The tariff
under that bill will afford ample protec-
Von.
v,her instances of how business has been
ruined by cheap foreign competition are
found in the prices offered on wall papers.
The cheapest grade Of paper here is 4 12
cents n roll while a very good paper is Of
fered from Glasgow, Scotland, for 1 1-2
cents for roll twelve yards long and
twenty-five inches wide. Again, the high
er grade in American 75-cent paper is
duplicated from England with a .25-ccnt
offer
Few things show better advantage taken
of the Wilson tariff more clearly than the
handling of combination wall decoration
by English makers. They offer 65 per cent
off to jobbers, when the American jobbers
cannot do better than 20 per cent off
But the Englishman proceeds to make up
for his discount by manipulating the tariff.
lie had long been paying 30 per cent duty ON
his product as wood. But he found a chance
to rate it with us as paper at a tariff of
20 per cent. He got it reduced to this figure
and there it remains. The American manu-
facturer is the sufferer.
Mr.. Haller said the day after election the Y
received five large orders with the sta tement
that they would not have been given had
Pryau been President-elect.

BETTING ON FOOTBALL.
If Done by Students Faculties Must
Deal With the Matter.

Chicago, Nov. 13.-In a letter TO n II ON
ingy paper, Henry Wade Rogers, president
Of the Northwestern University, says. in
part.
The statement has been made in Ger
tain papers that it is customary for stu.
dents in Northwestern University to bet,
and sometimes heavily, on games OF foot
ball. Such a charge is serious REFLECTION
on the student body and on the faculty,
and is calculated to injurc the univerSity V
and the cause of athletic sports
Il deem 1T my duty, therefore, to take
notice or 1t. and To say the authorities
OF the university believe the charges above
referred to are without foundation, and
are wholly untrue. | make this denial

Il do not hesitate to say that il the

for betting on the part % the student hofv
it will be necessary for college faculties to
deal with the matter in an unuista kablc
way.
They must suppress il as they are sup

or else the game Will be in danger of being
itself suppressed because OF its demoraliz-
ing tendencies.

New York, Nov. 1 3s$ItHan re stated on
the best OF authority that. no matter If a
dual leagueis formed :ky Yale and Harvard,
Princeton VIII net be All rewn over by the
New Haven University
Within the past week certain Princeton
men. who took the trouble to find out. have
received assurances from the most influen-
ual Yale graduates that II tile blue signs a
TWO. three or five years agreement to play
Harvard. similar asTeecnent 10 play tne
Tigers will be drawnup.
A prominent Princeton graduate, who is
closely identified with thcinside workings
OF football at old Nassau, informed the
reporter today that ale had already de
ella red h erintention Of continuing the games
with the Tigers. and that the Information
had been received n an informal way from
New Haven only a few daysago.
THIS means that Yale Is opposed to the
scheme of arranging games between New
Haven and Cambridge, the winner to play
the winner of a Princeton-P Z pennsylvania
game, and that the Blue Will stick to the
Tigers and Harvard and continue to ignore
Pennsylvania. Yale, however, must issue
4 challenge to Harvard in order to re-estab-
ish the series between them.
1t is u fact that if Harvard had defeated
Princeton last Saturday the Crimson would
have Immediately sent challenge to Yale,
and negotiations would have been plain
sailing. But, as Harvard did not win, the
Cambridge men are anxious to hear from
New Haven.
1t is almost sure thing that Yale, win
or lose with Princeton, will lose no time
in reopening her relations with Harvard
but it is also a certainty that the New
Haven men will stipuiate that they can
reserve the right TO play Princeton, too.
Whether Harvard willrenew her agreement
with the Tigers is a question Just now, but
Princeton men do not seem TO worry
about it.

RACE WAR RAGING
White LabOrers I'm Arkansas Trying
to Prevent Colored From Working.

Chicago, Nov. ia special from Ell
Dorado, Ark, says: The White and col
ored laborers employed at the Hawthorne
Mills twelve miles south OF here. have been
waging n race war since last Monday. The
whiIes who are largely uUtnumbered by
the negroes declared that the culored men
should not be permitted to work in the mills
and warned them To leave. The negroes
did not go, and a number of white men
whipped a negro.
1ii.It night d ear and several tents in which
the negroes were sleeping were surrounded
by armed white men, and more than 100
shots were fired into he car and tents.
How many were hurt cannot be ascer-
tanned, but il is known that woman was
fatally wounded. The shooting is thought
to have been for the purpose of frighten-
ingthenegroes away. az enitcea sedthey
were again warned to leave under pain OF
death.
Yesterday there was further rioting, the
extent OF which has not been ascertaned,
but the sheriff has gone there with
posse OF deputies to restore order. The
mills were idle yesterday Y, neither whitesn nor
blacks being at work. report reached
here late last evening to the effc,:t that tine
wounded woman had died, and that serious
trouble was eminent as the negroes
threatened to aypuge her DEATH
The evening times., 1896-11-13

The silver members Of Congress are De
ginning TO talk out on the taIIir question:
Their views are clearing the situation
very considerably and the leaders are
beginning To see their way. o.
From the general DRIFT Of the tax %.
the silver men 1T looks very much as II
they were getting ready to desert their
cause. Most of the former Republicans
are talking IN such "a way as To arouse the
suspicion that they are sorry they boiteu
and are ready to promise that tney viii
not do ii again. If they once get DUCK
into the fold they VIII never leave IL
again.
BUSINESS PROSPERITY
The tremendous business revival all
over the country is having Its erect.
The silver men DOW say that III prosperity y
Ielurns they Will welcome 1T aud rejoice
with those who rejoice. They rathcr
think the present boom VIII be OF only u
few days duration, but they are affai'l
to say So. 1t has been such short tme
since their prophecies were discrediUeh
that they fear to venture predictions.
The most important admission yet made
is that of Representative Newlands, Of
Nevada. Next to Senator Stewart he was
one of the bitterest silver men in the last
session. He could see nothing ahead dur
ing the campaign except disaster, should
Mckinley be elected. Silver was the only
hope of u dying country. The mills and
factories starting up all over the country
in the past week have dealt him a stagger-
ing blow, and he is now explaining.
He says the people want protection. 1t
was not SO much a fight on silver as it was
on a tariff. So the result was not SO much
a defeat of silver as 1T was victory for
protection. He wants tariff legislation To
be taken up at once, and so far as he is
concerned will offer no obstacle to its pas
sage.
He is not in favor OF passing the Dfnglcy
bill He would have a comprehensive tar
iff measure passed, a measure that would
protect the natural products and raw ma
terials OF the South and West. He feels sure
that such legislation would pass.
SENATOR TELLER'S VIEWS.
Senator Teller has also spoken. While
lie is making no promises, the politicians
the Republican party He thinks IL would
be useless for the Republicans to think of
passing tariff measure during the coming
short session. If 1T should get through the
Senate, lie is sure President Cleveland
would veto it. What the silver men will do
lie does not care to say until caucus is
held after Congress meets.
From these two statements il is argued
that the new administration will not have
such hard time passing n tariff bill as
might be imagined. Mr. Ncwlands frank
ly says he Will offer no Instructions, and
Senator Teller does not say that ne Will.
Tie last is considered remarkable, because
Senator Teller is usually ready to tell what
he intends to do.
