Wholesale Poisoning

FRANKFORT, Ind, June G. The
graduating exercises Of the High School
were held Thursday and banquet was
given that night to the alumni, and
many of the men and women who gave
it attended with their children. When
the guests separated for the night no
one expressed himself as feeling ill.
Early yesterday morning summonses
came thick and fast to the local physi-
clans. Each found his patient deathly
i'll at the stomach, and attacked with
dizziness. Every graduate was affected
in the same way. The great majority
of the sufferers are now out of danger,
but in a few cases recovery is very
doubtful. 1t is not known whether the
poison was accidentally mixed with
something served at the banquet, but
there is suspicion that it was inten.
tional.

FALLS CHURCH BoNDs.-A special
meeting of the town council of Falls
Church was held Wednesday night.
The mayor stated the object of the
meeting to be to hear objections to the
election last Thursday on the question
of bonding the town for aid to the cleo
trio railroad. Messrs. ]. 8. Rilev, b..
L. Turner, ]. W. Brown and E. F.
Croker filed a protest and objections
to the election, alleging that sufficient
notice was not given; that no petition
had been presented the council asking
for the election; that the judges hold
ing said election had not been properly
appointed; that ballots were received
after shutdown, and that parties voted
who were not entitled, etc. The pro-
test was ordered entered on the records.
Councilman DePutron, who acted as
one of the judges, answered the objec-
tions, and denied in the main several
allegations as set forth in the protest.
He also offered resolution to the effect
that as the question received the votes
of two-thirds of the freeholders who
voted on the question it was the sense
of the council that the result was in the
affirmative. Action on the whole mat
ter was, however, deferred until next
Monday night, when the council will
meet in regular monthly session, and
Mr.. R. W. Moore, attorney for the cor
poratioD, will be present.

STATE PoLTTICs.-Chairman J. T.
Ellyson, of the democratic State CEN
trail committee, is back in Richmond
from the Staunton convention. Dis
cussing the work OF that body, Mr.. Ell.
Tyson Gays: 81 have full confidence
that the members of that convention,
however much they have differed in
Staunton, will be found in line in the
coming campaign working side by side
to secure the triumph of the democrat
ic party in the Old Dominion" In
the convention the question of electing
a chairman was, at the request of Mr..
Ellyson's friends, rslegated to the
State committee. The desire of Sena-
tor Daniel, Congressman Swanson and
other silver leaders was that Mr.. Ely
son should permit the convention to
re-elect him. That gentleman, how
ever, was not sure that his engage
ments would permit him to comply
with this desire. He will take time to
consider the matter. 1t is possible
that he may not conclude to take up
the work of the campaign.
For the first time since 1888 the
chairman of the State committee was
not this yesr chosen as member of
the national convention. This honor
was conferred upon Congressman Otey
by the Staunton convention.

GENERAL LEEIN HAvANA.-General
Fitzhugh Lee. the new consul general
for the United States, had long con-
ference with Captain General Weyler
yesterday.
General Lee has interested himself in
the case of the American artist, Thorn
as Dawley, confined in MORO Castle,
"incommunicado. When he called on
General Weyler with his predecessor
he explained to Weyler that the artist
had been sent to take pictures for news
papers in the United States. General
Weyler promised General Lee to recon-
mend that this case be attended to at
the earliest opportunity. He did not
authorize General Lee to see Dawley at
the fortress, as the law prohibits prison
ers being seen, and its provisions could
not be evaded without considerable
trouble. He declared, however, that
General Lee might see the prisoner to.
day at the palace.
Both parties to this interview declare
that the coming of General Lee to Cuba
is with the purpose of healing whatever
difficulties exist between the respective
governments.

If THE majority of the people OF this
country were intelligent and we'll To-.
formed, the already large number OF
them who are disguised with the man
ner in which national affairs are con-
Quoted would be greatly increased.
They are educated at the expense OF
Others, and are supplied with cheap
newspapers, but they are as gullible as
the tribes in Darkest Africa" The u.
S. Senate recently passed bill to pro-
hibit the issue and sale of any more
bonds without the assent of Congress.
Under existing circumstances that may
have been wrong, but, whether so or
not, it was done in good faith; but the
republican majority of the ways and
means committee of the republican U.
S. House of Representatives, only agreed
+, report it adversely, upon the assur-
..nce of the republican managers OF the
House that no attempt would be made
to adopt the report until after next falls
election, lest action upon it now might
affect that election. Understanding is
as lacking in the United States now as
it ever was.
