POOR ECONOMY.
WHY THE ALTHEIMER RAPIsT
WAS NOT PLACED IN JAIL.
He was Carried to the County
Farm without the Knowlege
of the Sheriff.

An account OF the Altheimer raping
was given in Yesterdays GRAPHIC
Inquiry at the Sherff's office disclos-
ed the fact that no official informa-
ton had been received there although
the prisoner had been committed in
default of $4,000 bail. As an excuse
for not returning the man to Jail, as
the commitment directed, the officers
stated that as he was an escape and
convicted it would save the county
an additional expense by turning
the prisoner over to the proper
authorities at the farm.
True it would have cost heeounty
few dollars more to have brought
the culprit here bat it seems like
poor policy to take chances on

Cuba and Crete .

The King of the Hellenes has man
Tested a more indnlgent disposition
toward the Cretans who are lighting
against Turkey than the President
of the ULited tates has manifested
toward the Cubans who are battling
for liberty. George |. has permitted
the deportation OF arms from
Greece to Crete. When Turkey
called upon him last month TO stop
I it, he issued an order TO his Minister
of War, who, Il seems, did not pos
sess the means OF putting a stop to
it. Then "the powers urged him
to4at40pt more thorough measures
fsr preventing il, and his reply was
that he was precluded from doing So
by the strength Of Greek sympathy
with the Cretans. Finally we have
learned that some of the powers are
DESTROYS of establishing a iointnaval
blockade OF the island OF Crete.
1t is probable that George |. will
perform his duty in executing the
public law which prohibits the ex-
ports of military munitions tOinsnr-
gents; but it is evident that he is not
anxious to go beyond the require
ments of law in the case of Crete.
On the other hand, the President
of the United States has been over
anxious to assist Spain as against
Cuba. His Administration has been
extraordinarily yigiIanr in prevent.
ing the shipment OF any kind of sup
plies to the Cnhans. For this pur-
pose it has used force and arms for
over a year. It has watched the
snspects,all along the seaboard, and
has accepted the help OF Spanish
spys. 1t has invoked the terrors OF
the law against offenders, and has
striven to secure their punishment.
The terms OF Mr.. Gleyeland's recent
proclamation are as strong as Secre-
tary Olney could devise. All agen-
cies have been brought to bear in
favor of tyranical Spain as against
free Cuba. No heed whatever has
been given to the universal sympathy
of the American people with the
Cubans battling for liberty.
In this case Mr. Cleveland has per-
formed works OF superogation, to
the advantage OF a government that
is both cruel and perfidious.-New

WASHINGTON, Aug. 2l.-The execu-
tive committee of the Populist party
has adjourned subject to the call of the
chairman. II has accomplished all that
could be done at the present time in ar
ranging for headquarters here and
branch headquarters at Chicago. 1t was
decided that J. r. Sovereign should be
assigned to the Chicago headquarters,
which will be under the management of
Mr.. Washburn of Massachusetts,. Chair
man Butler, of course, will be in charge
here, and will give his whole attention
to the campaign Mr. Butler will be
assisted by Secretary Edgerton. who
will be mere during most of the cam
paign. O. H. Piertle, chief of the sem
ate document room, will be in charge of
sending out documents Mr. Butler
said that what class of literature will
be sent out had not yet been decided
upon. As far as possible documents
which can be franked will be sent.
These include speeches by Populists in
congress, and some speeches by Tom
Watson will be among the number Sc.
leeted Some literature is being sent
out by the Democratic committee and
also by the Silver committee to be dis
tributed.
Chairman Butler said the committee
was embarrassed for want of funds and
Secretary Edgerton said the committee
must rely upon voluntary subscriptions
as much as possible.
1--WE have Clipped in, said Chair
man Butler, to pay our expenses thus
far. We have no rich men to rake
large contributions. l expect we will
have to make the campaign like others
we have made in the south, with very
little money
Chairman Butler will enter into cor
respondence with Populist leaders and
free silver leaders in the various parts OF
the country at once and endeavor to eff
feet an adjustment of all existing differ
ences which will bring the supporters
of silver and Bryan into harmonious ac-
ton.
The silver party and tine Popuiist
party have moved into headquarters
with the Democratic party in the
Wormley building.
Vice Chairman Stevens of the silver
party said that the silver branch head
quarters in Chicago would be every bit
as important as the headquarters in
Washington and would have charge Of
the campaign in the western states.

TRIALS OF A LOUISVILLE MAN
WHILE LAYING A SLATE
ROOF.
How It Feels to Be SO Hot that the
Mercury Stands at 100 De-
grees

Like sitting down on a red-hot
stove is the way Thomas Tanning
speaks in the Louisville Post of a
recent terrible experience he had.
For five hours he was exposed to the
burning rays of the sun with the
mercury standing standing at
nearly 100 degrees.
He was literally cooked alive, and
the skin peeled off his face, hands
and body in little rolls. There is
not an inch of his person that was
not seorched, and for three days he
suffered the most evcruciating
agony.
Mr.. Tanning is a slate roof CON
tractor, doing business in Louis
vile, and residing at the Strauss
Hotel in Jacksonville. This morn
ing he was sufficiently recovered to
cross over 10 Louisville and look
after his business, but he is still
far from well, and his flesh would
put the reddest, red, red rose to
TO the blush. To q reporter for
the Evening Post he described his
awful experience, and told how he
felt while undergoing the torture.
He said he had the contract for
putting a slate roof on large house
out on Oak street, near First, in
this city, and on last Thursday he
came over to see ;that his men got
well started with the work. AS
everybody remembers, old Sol was
doing his level best on that day to
make things unpleasant for swelter-
ing humanity. Down in the shade
on the street the mercury stood at
99.5, but on the top of that roof it
was 1850. Mr.. Tanning worked
with his men all morning, and paus-
ed now and then to assist in carry
ing a Frustrated unfortunate to the
ground. He perspired freely he
says, and drank ice water whenever
he felt thirsty. About noon he
notice. that the backs of his hands
were beginning to blister, and when
he tried to wash his face the skin
peeled off. The flesh on his body
was affected, too, and wherever his
clothing touched him the flesh was
raw
why" he said at was so not up
there that when I touched the slate
with my bare hands it burned them.

HE FALL IN SILVER.
West Minister Gazette Tells How II
Was Done.

Was Done.
LONDON, Aug. sl.--The West Minister
Gazette this afternoon in financial
article attributes the fall in silver to the
inability of spectators in the United
States to carry silver purchased with
borrowed money and to the scarcity OF
buyers 1t says;
THE quantity of silver lying idle IN
the banks of China is large, there being
much less demand for it owing to the
setback to trade in both China aud
Japan due to smallness of purchases of
silk by America and Europe. What the
people are anxious to know is the
amount of silver still carried by speeu-
lato 8 in the United States. The price
is now declining and figures may induce
more active speculation both in London
and India. y
