A BRUTAL OUTRAGE.

Young Married Woman Separated from
Her Husband and Frightfuliy Maltrested.
Cincinnati, O., October 7-An angry
crowd gathered about the court house
and Jail in Newport, KY, to-day upon
the announcement of most shocking
assault by eleven men upon the young
wife Of switchman, recently married.
The sheriff was obliged to clear the
corridors, and threats of vengeance
were made. Thomas Gleason and his
wife started out the Alexandria pike
to visit friend last night, when two
men, with revolvers, and representing
themselves to be officers, separated
husband and wife and dragged the
shrieking woman into a field, where
eleven men assaulted her. The penal
ty for this crime in Kentucky is death.
To-day Mrs. Gleason has positively
identified six of the men, who were ar
rested from her description. Judge
Helm will call a special grand jury to
consider the case
Eleven Of the gang of ruffians were
brought to preliminary trial before
Judge Bennett, who upon the testimony
held them to answer to the grand jury
without bail, the offense being a capital
one. The idea of a special grand jury
was abandoned, as the regular Jury
will meet on October 10. Meantime,
owing to the excited state of feeling,
and the insecurity of the Newport Jail,
the men were ordered to be taken to
Maysville this afternoon for safe keep
ing.
When the time came for the re-
moval of the prisoners Zone being still
held for further identification), to the
Chesapeake & Ohio depot to take the
train for Maysville, there was such a
1nenacing crowd about the Jail that
the sheriff called out the entire police
iofce, day and night, to preserve or
Ger. II -was WITH difficulty that the
men were taken to the two wagons
which conveyed them to the depot,
and the crowd followed closely after.
At the depot and before the train ar
rived, the situation grew more threat
ening. The crowd jeered the prisoners
and shouts of Don't let them get on
the train" wee heard. The police
force finally had to charge the yell
ing crowd to prevent a rush at the
prisoners. Fortunately the train soon
came and the men were safely en-
harked. The prisoners are aged 10 to
80, mostly without employment. Two
or three are street peddlers, and are
known to the police as gang going
together and often found drunk and
disorderly. Their names are Dad"
Meiner, George Greer. Huber Miller,
Edward Hending, Frank Bushmiller,
Harry Bushmiller John Shannon,
Matt Meiner, John Duhfoss and VIM.
Schorle.
The one last arrested, and who IS
still in jail awaiting Identification. is
William Croxton. He will be brought
before Mrs Gleason tonight. The
ether ten were promptly recognized
by Mrs. Gleason in tee crowded court
room. The men exhibited the most
reckless bravado, one or two being
drunk while in the court room. They
used vile language and displayed total
indifference and unconcern.

Drought and Forest Fires Working Havoc
in Arkansas-Sixty Days Dry Spell
Little Rock, Ark, October T.
Drought and forest fires are playing
considerable havoc in Arkansas and
the situation grows worse every day.
Thousands Of dollars worth of valu-
able timber and other property has
been destroyed by fire, and stock in
nearly all sections of the State is suf-
fering from the scarcity Of water, while
in some places there is not enough OBJ
tainable TO supply the people with
drinking water. No general rain has
fallen for over sixty days and in some
localities the drought is of even longer
duration. The forests being dry as
finder, the ground covered with dry
leaves and decaying vegetation, have
furnished splendid material for fires,
and from all sections reports of dis
astrous forest CONGREGATIONS are being
received. Miles of fences have been
destroyed, saw mills burned, cabins
Quilted. and in some instances the
flames have been communicated 10
large fields Of open cotton, which were
destroyed. In hundreds of localities
wells and springs have entirely dried
up and residents are hauling water in
barrels from the nearest streams, while
some sections are twenty miles dis
tant. Nearly all late vegetables have
been parched in the fields. The peo-
pie in many localities are holding
meetings and praying for rain.

SENIOR MORET.

Member of the New Spanish Cabinet
Seems Pretty Decent Fellow.
Washington, October THE friends
OF reciprocity are encouraged to believe
that the selection of Senior Moret as
minister of the colonies in the new
Spanish cabinet will lead to an i'm
provement Of the commercial relations
between the United States and Cuba.
Moret is the recognized exponent of
reciprocity in Spain, and he first came
into public notice by embracing the
views of Bastiat and urging complete
free trade. When James G. Blaine was
effecting reciprocity treaties with South
American countries his attention was
directed to speech by Moret, in which
1.-THE Spanish statesman took the same
position as Mr.. Blaine. The Spanish
tariff law, then as now, contained two
columns. one of them giving reduced
duties to countries entering into reci-
procity arrangements with Spain. Moret
advocated still third column, making
retaliatory rates against countries not
entering into the reciprocity and de-
signed to make reciprocity matter of
commercial necessity. These views are
said to indicate that the new minister
will advocate colonial policy giving
Cuba the largest possible measure of
reciprocity with the United States I'M
der the Dingley law.
Another position taken by Moret
will, it is believed, have a favorable eff
feet on the Cuban instruction. This
is his authorship of the law emancipat-
ing the negro slaves in Cuba. which IS
known as the Moret law. When he pre-
sented the law he was personally at
tackled by CASTELAR,, who claimed that
emancipation was not speedy enough,
and who asked if Moret wished his
daughters to read Cuban newspapers
advertising the slaves Of negro women
along with the sale of mares and cows.
Yes" answered Moret, II will make
my daughters read these papers and
when the sale of women, along with
mares and COWS shocks their tender
sensibilities, 1 will tell them Your
father was the first to call these beings
to liberty"
The "Moret law" has greatly en-
deared it's author to the negroes of
Cuba who are A ruling mower in the
present conflict.

Winnipeg, October THE forest
fires that have been raging in Manitoba,
close to the boundary line. for the past
| ten days, have broken out more furious
ly than ever Ten or twelve persons are
reported to have been burned to death
and the fire is rapidly spreading over
the boundary line into Dakota.
Firemen have been fighting the flames
night and day, trying to keep them
getting into the more thickly populated
districts. Hundreds of thousands of dol
lars worth Of timber has been destroyed
and considerable grain, as well as some
farm buildings
Up to this time the fire has been con-
fined to the Canadian side of the boun-
dairy, but the swarth line between the
United States and Manitoba have been
obliterated, and great fears are enter
tanned that the fires will get beyond
the control of the settlers
The flames are driving hundreds of
wolves and coyotes out into the open
country and large flocks of geese and
ducks have been seen flying over the
burning forests.
Near Whitemouth, H. Laundry, a
trapper, was burned to death A Ger
man woman living near where the fire
was the most furious yesterday, is re-
ported to have been burned to death,
and her children are missing.
A dispatch from White Mouth says
the fire is spreading rapidly. East of
White Mouth the situation is very
critical. The section foreman at OAR
win, and his wife and men, were pick
ed up by a freight train and brought
into White Mouth. Roadmaster Hor-
ner, on a handcar. attempted to run
from Darwin, with his men, but near
ly succumbed through suffocation and
was compelled to take refuge in a
passing freight.
All the telegraph poles for several
miles east of the town are down and
trains are tied up.
Ar Broken Head, Manitoba, t1rc coun-
try is on fire. On both sides of the
Broken Head River enormous damage
is being done. The smoke is so thick
that it is impossible to see twenty yards
in any direction
Mr. and Mrs. Young. living south of
Broken Head about eight miles, lost
everything and only saved their lives
by staying in the river for twelve hours
At Beauzjour, Manitoba, seven per-
sons have been burned to death. Mrs.
o. W. Thomas, her young son and
daughter, had a race with the flames
for several miles They had a team of
horses which they kept on the run.
Sparks from the burning timber were
blown into the dry grass of a prairie
which they were compelled to cross,
and soon they were surrounded by the
flames. The frightened horses started
to run straight ahead into the burning
timber Before they had gone far the
carriage overturned and they were
thrown down an embankment into a
small creek. This probably saved their
lives. They were badly burned.
A report from Morris, Manitoba, saws
a prairie fire has been raging there
and that one family of four persons is
known to have persisted The fire is
supposed to have originated from the
sparks of an engine
