say my wife is delighted with the effects
of the Electropoise, and has improved
very much from the treatment. The

reduced, and the swelling. in the limbs
disappeared. She had no faith whatever
in the Electropoise when she began, but
is now fully convinced Of its beneficial
powers; and eventually looks for per-

CABLE OPEN TO HAYTI.

New York, Dec. 2.-The submarine
cable between New York and Haytl
is completed and was opened to the
public at midnight for the trasmis-
sion of messages to Hayti and other
places in the West Indies. The ca
BILE approaches New York by way of
Coney Island and Brooklyn. A cir
cular issued this afternoon states that
the main office of the company is at
No 1 Broad street, where the Com
mercial Cable company has its Office
and that messages will also be accept
ed at all Postal telegraph offices
throughout the country.
Peculiar interest attaches to the
completion of the United States and
Hayti Telegraph and Cable company's
lines. The attorney general applied
to the United States court for an in
junction to prevent the company from
prosecuting it's project it being al
legged that under this name the COM
pany was mere cloak for the opera
ton Of foreign company. The al
legation was denied, however, and
statement made that the company was
bona fide American one and that its
object was to establish competing
service.

PRICES FOR FLOUR TO GO UP.

st. Louis, Dec. by the first of
the year -four mills in st. Louis will
be running full blast. This is the be-
lief on change. Many of the st.
Louis mills are now shut down and
others are only running half time.
The flour jobbers confidently expect
that the price Of flour will go up by
the first of the year. The millers
claim that with wheat advancing as
it is they cannot make flour with
profit.
President Spencer of the Merchants
Exchange said: ''To me there appears
no prospect Of wheat declining much
in prices; all reports are bullish. 1t
looks that sooner or later the mills
will have to grind wheat at high pri-
ces and charge more for flour.

Paris, Dec. 1.-The attempt to eX-

ed. When the chamber Of deputies
assembled at 8 o'clock yesterday morn
ing few members were present and
the radicals protested against any at
tempt to proceed with business in the
absence of a quorum. The sitting
was therefore suspended until 1

sitting it was decided to abandon the
experiment of morning sitting.

Vienna, has arrived in Paris.

its roof was lifted in the air and four
walls blown down, all escaped with
slight injuries. Mrs. Weaver, her
six months old baby and five year
old son were blown from second
story window into the yard, with no

A LIVELY FIGHT.

Council Bluffs, Iowa, Dec 1.-Two
families in Crescent township met in
battle array yesterday, the second en-
counter within week. The results
are thus chronicled:
Elijah Mcclure, stabbed five times:
Dave Mcclure, three fingers chewed
into mince meat; Orville Mcclure,
nose broken; James Shadden, stabbed
twice, one wound several inches in
length; Grin Shadden, cut in the face,
badly; Arthur Shadden, cut about
head. and a portion of his lower lip
bitten out.
The fight was between the families
Of James Shadden and Elijah Nc
Clure, both old settlers and peighbors
for a generation. The trouble origi-
mated last summer between the sons
of the neighbors and grew out of an
insulting remark by one Of the Nc
Clure boys about a young woman to
whom Arthur Shadden was paying
his addresses.

OLD GLORY.

To The Contrary False.

Is Respected In Turkey, All Reports
To The Contrary False.
Washington, ID. c., Dec. 2.-The
state department authorizes the state
ment that the assertion made by DR..
Cyrus Hamilton, that American wom-
en- in Haskeui fed from massacre,
not finding protection under the Amer
lean flag, is an entire mistake; that
the flag was neither furled nor insult
ed at that point and that not one
American man, woman or child was
at Haskeui during the massacre.
Equally unfounded is the statement
recently made in Chickering Hall by
Miss Dr. Grace Kimball that only the
English flag is respected in Turkey.
During the massacre at Constantine
pie she hurried past other flags and
found protection under her own flag
and the escort of the American consul
general.
She passed throngh the streets
where men were being killed by mobs,
and went safely, under our flag, up
the Bosphorous.- Through scenes of
mob violence all over Turkey our flag
and missionaries have been protected
by Turkish troops. We have lost by
incendiary fires at but two places,
both far in the interior, the value be-
ing much less than the claims of Eng
land, France and of Italy, for monks
and priests killed, churches burned,
or houses pillaged and for which no
indemnity has been paid. Every
peaceful American arrested or de-
tanned has been released on demand
of the American minister. The dem
onstrations of revolutionists in Tur-
key are now the chief danger so far
as our missionaries are concerned.

GhU Fro GAME.
HE WILL STARTLE THE COUNTRY
RIGHT SOON
By Intervening in Cuban Affairs Unless
Weyler Brings Things to an End in
His Present Advance Upon MaCeo

Chicago, Dec. "A dispatch to the
Tribune from Washington, says: A
crisis in Cuban affairs is rapidly ap-
preaching, and there is reason to be-
lieve that President Cleveland has al
ready decided on a course that will
startle the country, almost as much
as his famous message on the Vene-
zuelan question, although the exact
time will depend on future occur
rences. 1t is believed that the presi-
dent will not change his policy in res
gard to Spain in any respects, but
will simply carry it out I'd its logical
conclusion, which is diredt and open
threat to intervene on the part of the
United States to secure peace in the
island whether by the independence
of the patriots or by, voluntary action
on the part of Spain.
From three different sources, the
policy partially agreed upon between
Secretary Olney and President Cleve-
land, was learned and the reports in
each case tailed with surprising I'M
animity.
y definite ana somewhat startling
announcement on the Cuban question
will be made to congress, either in the
annual message or in a special supple
mentary communication, as was the
case in dealing with the Venezuelan
question.
Minister Dupuy de LONE, of the
Spanish legation, has been fully adj
vised of the impending announcement
and he accepts what is in effect anul-
tomatum, believing that Spain will be
able to prevent action on the part of
the United States by the issue of
Weylers operations in Cuba. The
policy adopted is scarcely a matter of
| doubt any longer and unless there
should be some sudden change in af-
! fairs of the island through the success
of Weyler's campaign. the issue will
soon be sharply drawn between this
country and Spain.

San Francisco, Dec. 2.-Superior
Judge Murphy has decided that the
answer and cross complaint filed by
Mrs. Nat. Goodwin to her husbands
suit for divorce must be stricken from
the records of the case, as having been
filed after the case had been dismiss
ed by Goodwin himself At the same
time his honor held that Goodwin was
not in contempt of court for having
failed to answer the subpoaena serv,
ed on him Sunday night last, for the
reason that the cation having been
dismissed the court had no jurisdic-
ton to issue any process of law there
in. So the Goodwin divorce case is
for the present at an end.

His Message All Ready Except His Elk
preston on the Cuban Question.
Washington, d. c., Dec. 2.-As there
will be only one more regular meet
ing Of the cabinet before the assem-
bling of congress all members were
present at today's meeting to discuss
those portions of the forthcoming
message of the president that relates
to the business of their respective de-
partments. With one exception the
message is practically complete and
awaiting only a few finishing touches.
This exception is the most important,
for it concerns the treatment of the
Cuban question. In the natural or
der Of things this subject, coming up
under the head of foreign relations,
would occupy the most prominent
place in the way of the beginning of
the message and so might be expected
to receive early treatment at the
hands Of the president. There is still
a gap i'm that part of the message, how
ever, notwithstanding several efforts
have been made to close it up for the
varying phases of the campaign now
in progress i'm Cuba has made it nee
eSSary to change considerably the
views the president and Secretary Oh
ney desire to lay before congress in
that connection, and probably it will
not be until the end of this week and
at the very latest moment. that the
missing paragraphs will be supplied
Any expression of opinion as to the
nature Of the presidents views re-
speeding Cuba are only speculative
at present, but so far there has been
found no warrant for the assumption
that he has determined upon any de-
cided change in the policy to be pur-
sued by the administration in this
