Inauguration.

This lay witnesses the Inaugural
ton "a William Mckinley as Presi-
del.t of the United States, the
impressive ceremony taking place
in the presence of a large concourse
of people coming together from all
parts of the country. Preparations
for this important event have been
in progress during the past three
months, and are the most elaborate
of anything yet attempted in the
way of an inaugural blowout.
Many special trains were required
10 carry to Washington people of
greater or less distinction, who pur-
pose joining in the festivities
incident to the occasion, and the
affair will be just "swell" enough to
Danish for the time being all thoughts
of that Republican simplicity which
was the proud boast of the founders
of this great Republic, and is of a
type illustrating the tendency of
the people of the country as the
Nation becomes older and stronger.

The Chicago Tribune wants what
it calls the oflice-seeking hogs driven
away from President-elect McKin-
ley. VIII the Tribune tell us how
this is to be done? Is the United
States army large enough to accom-
plish this stupendous feat? Will
the state forces be equal to the task?
Can a Chinese wall be built high
enough to keep them out? The
Tribune clearly does not compre-
bend the patience, persistence, ten
acity, indefatigability and fertility
of resource of the average office
seeker. Death on any kind of a
horse would not scare man who is
afflicted with the oflice-seeking dis
ease.

The Texas antitrust law, that for
bids any company to combine in
partnership and "increaSe or reduce
the price of merchandise, produce or
commodities" has been declared by
the United States courts unconsti-
tutional. Another populistic feature
of this antitrust law exempted those
engaged in agriculture and stock
raising from its provisions, and also
provided for the exemption of labor
organizations from combining to in
crease wages. This law exempted
so per cent. of the people from its
application. This is an instance of
legislating for the benefit of one
class to the detriment of another.
To avoid such exhibitions of knnacy
the legislators should consult the
moon and determine by a commit
tee of investigation when the signs
are right.

New York. June "a dispatch to the
Press from Boston says: Colonel Shep-
ard Young, well known local military
man, in an interview, divulged the de-
tails of a secret Cuban expedition.
which left Boston on May %, and picked
up several recruits in New York. To-
day he received a cipher telegram from
Jacksonville conveying the news that
they had just sailed from that city on
a fast, light draft steamer, lis strong,
armed with rifles of the latest pattern
All have seen service in the militia A
movement has been started to organize
a sanitary commission to supply stores.
Colonel Young says: II conducted the
drills in hall in Boston, put them
through in fancy tactics, cavlary tao
tics and artillery tactics. Every man
could load and fire a cannon, no mat
ter what the size, and swing a sabre
or use a bayonet. Not a soldier left
Boston until he was drilled sufficiently
to take charge of a regiment. The tao
tics were taught in this city mostly at
night We got word from new York
that spy had been sent to Boston.
We did not see him. The troops prac-
ticed with the machete also. That is
used mostly from a front cut. The
is heavier than a sabre, and
the wilding of one is hard work, but
the men soon learned to use it with
skill"

URBANA'S HORROR.
Sheriff McLain Gives His Version of
the Affair

Columbus, o., June "a special to
the Dispatch from Urbana gives Sher-
if McLain's version of what occurred
between, himself at Urbana and Gov
ernor Bushnell at Wooster the night
the negro was lynched. The sheriff
saws:
Thursday evening l telegraphed the
governor requesting him to send addi-
tional troops here. About II o'clock the
governor called me up by telephone. l
told him just how matters stood, and
he said: / don't think you have ex-
hausted all the resources at your COM
mand and until you have L can do
nothing for YOU
After the shooting 1 Immediately
telegraphed Governor Bushnell and he
replied that he had ordered company
A of Springfield to come here. This
company is colored and l Immediately
communicated with Captain Bradbury
OF Springfield not to come, as its pres
ence might precipitate a race war.
Neither Captain Bradbury nor myself
were imposed on by any one imperson-
ating me in the talk with the governor
so far as l have been able to learn.
Had proper military force been sent
here as requested, 1 believe the unfor-
tunate happenings of the awful morn
ing would not have occurred"

ALL RESTS WITH TURKEY.
She Has the Power to Say Whether
Peace Shall Be Concluded Peace
ably or Not.

Constantinople. June at is ex-
pected that strong pressure will be
needed to overcome the resistance of
the Turkish government to the retro
cession of Thessaly. Reports that
Great Britain is opposing on religious
grounds Turkeys retention of Thessaly
are being circulated here with the view
of exciting Mussulman fanaticism.
The powers contend that as they
guarantee the integrity of Turkey, the
latter must respect the integrity of
others.
In a memorandum submitted to the
Turkish government the powers pro-
pose that the crests of the mountains
on the Greek frontier be occupied by
Turkish instead of Greek troops. and
also that the indemnity be in propor-
ton to the resources of Greece. 1t is
further proposed to modify the capitu-
lations. or special privileges, enjoyed
by Greek successes in Turkey. with
the view of abolishing certain abuses
which have been the subject of COM
plant upon the part of the Turks.
The two latter questions will be en-
trusted TO commission of experts and

Victoria, B. c., June 9.-Very meager
particulars were brought by the En-
press of Japan, of a disaster which be-
fell the fishermen of Chusan Archipel-
ago. off the coast of China. On May
6. when all, or at least most. of the
fishing boats were out on the fishing
banks, a terrible gale sprung up. OF
the several hundred boats which were
out at the time. very few returned,
and il is estimated that some 500 men
lost their lives.
The storm was one of those sudden
ones for which the coast of China is
noted and the fishermen had no chance
TO seek shelter. Their light boats were
smashed 70 atoms and they were left
TO fight hopeless battle with the mer-
CHESS waves. Those who escaped did
so by good luck.
The storm swept over the entire
Archipelago, which extends across the
mouth Of Hang Chow bay, on the east
ern coast of China. Several large
Junks were lost, in which scores per-
iShed

A FRENCH DUEL. .
In This, However, One of the Partic-
ipants is Actually Injured.


Paris. June 9.-All Paris is talking to-
night of a duel with swords fought this
afternoon between two members of the
old nobility. Count Robert de Mon
tesquoin and Herr de Regnier. at Neuilly
lie Naiiols, growing out of remark made
/ by Mile. Heredia, the sister-in-laW of
Regnier, of a few days ago in the salon
of the Baroness Alphonse de Rothschild.
Mile. Heredia, who was with her sister,
Nine: Regnier, turned the conversation
to handsome cane carried by the Count
de Montesquoin. who stood near her. and
remarked that it was Just the sort of
cane that might have been used at the
charity bazaar fire to beat the ladies'
The count. who overheard the remark
interpreted 1t as an insinuation of cow
ardly conduct on his part toward women
at the fire. Immediately withdrawing
from the salon. he sent a challenge to M
De ReSnier, who was escorting his wife
ana slster-in-law, and at midnight his
seconds were appointed and preliminary
for the duel arranged. On consideration.
the seconds of De Regnier submitted to
the COUNTS seconds that the remark was
one or mere banter, upon which the count
ought not to place so serious construc-
ton, and urged that the matter be arbi-
trated- The Count de Montesquoin there
upon twitted De Regnier with being
afraid to meet him and branded him
through the newspapers as coward.
This resulted in challenge from De Reg
nler. after three days spent in the dis
cussion of conflicting statements as to the
precise words used by Mile. Heredia and
Nine. De Regnier. who has echoed her
sisters remarks. The combatants at
tackled each other with the greatest
yigor, and for ten minutes fought to kill
In the third encounter. the Count De
Montesquoin was severely wounded in the
back of the right hand. The surgeons
then interfered and refused TO allow the
combat to proceed.
The combatants, withdrawing declined
even to bow to each other. The affair
has made tremendous talk and il NAV
prove the first incident in a general bow
colt socially OF a number of men who are
persistently accused in certain quarters
of having displayed the rankest cowa rdfce
at the charity bazaar fire.

Cox Doesn't Want It.

Cincinnati, O.. June "A CONNER
cial-Tribune reporter saw General ia
cob D. Cox tonight and asked him:
Are you going to accept the offer of
appointment as minister from the
United States to Spain?"
General Cox answered promptly: Il
am not"
He then stated that he had received
no official notice of this offer, but had
been semi officially informed that the
offer would be made if he desired the
place Through this intermediary, he
thanked President Mckinley for the
compliment and gave his reasons for
declining. His principal reasons are
that he has for several years been en-
gagged in literary work that it will
take some years to complete and he
cannot afford to abandon it.
Furthermore. the position offered i'm
poses great responsibility and labor at
this time. But this is minor reason.
General Cox has been offered a profess
sorsnip in the law department of Gin
cinnati university. which he will de-
cline for the same chief reasons.

for Matanzas daily at am. was dyna-
mited this morning about II miles from

cording to the official account. the OBJ

The officials had ordered the pasSen-
ger train to go ahead and a pilot en-
CINE to follow. AT bend in the line. a
terrible explosion completely wrecked
