TARIFF RATES ON COAL.
Reciprocity Agreement with Canada
Not Probable.


Washington, June 2s.-There was a largo
gathering of republican senators at the
meeting of the Senate finance committee
at the Arlington hotel tonight Most Of
the time was spent in discussing the rates
TO be imposed on coal, and the proposition
to fix them so that a reciprocal a%ange-
ment may be arrived at with the Dominion
of Canada. No formal conclusion was
reached, the committee deferring final ao-
tion untii the meeting tomorrow morning.
Strong arguments were advanced by
some of those present in favor Of rate
OF 40 cents per ton on coal, the statement
being made that the western coal fields
should find a market in Canada for an
additional 100000 tons per year. this state
ment being based on reports that the new
liberal ministry of the dominion would re-
duce the duty on imports of American
coal TO similar amount, and enter into
reciprocal Arrangement with the United
States.
After the meeting one member of the
committee advanced the opinion that the
rate TO be finally fixed would be 67i6 cents
per ton. but that there would be no pro-
vision for reciprocal agreement.
The rate on pineapples were increased
IN packages from TO cents peE cubic
foot; I'm bulk from Sc to 81 per 1860
The general subject of reciprocity also
came up for discussion by the republican
members of the committee after tho Wis
itors had departed.

CHASTITY FIND OF GOTHAM.
The Identity of the MutiIated Corpse
Not Yet Discovered.


New York. June 2S-The mutilated body
found in two sections, one in East river
on Saturday, the other in the northern
part Of this city on Sunday. has not been
identified.
A number of persons have visited the
morgue to-day. thinking they might rec
ognize the body as that OF a missing friend
or relative, but none could identify the
body.
one evening paper has offered $1,000 and
another 500 for a solution of the mys-
terry.
Coroner's Physician O'Hanlon made an
other examination of the body this after
noon. Afterward he said that whoever
had cut up the body, while he might not
have been surgeon, must have known
something of the human anatomy, as ne
had cut the body in parts where saw and
knife would meet with the least resist
ance. In the case of the legs. the cuts
had been made slanted instead Of directly
across. This was the easiest way to make
the cuts But the physician admitted that
the cutter may have struck the easiest
and simplest way 10 do his horrible work
by mere accident. Sull, he did not think
that was possible, and thought that even
a butcher accustomed to the killing and
cutting up of animals could not have done
the work so well as II has been done.
II was said by physician to-day that
the parts OF the body had been boiled.
This, Or. O'Hanlon does not believe. The
peculiar appearance OF the fragments
found In the upper part of the city was
due 10 It's lying In the sun before being
wrapped, he thinks.

Gen. Podbiedelsky will shortly be gazet-

Frnce Hohenlohe, who has always siren
uously opposed placing such offices as the
postal department in the hands of men of
military training.
Altogether Germany appears to be in
the throes of a far-reaching crisis, of
which it is impossible to see the outcome
beyond the fact that the emperor is more
than ever taking the reins into his own

Badly Injured.
New York, June 2S.-Short Stop Jennings
of Baltimore, who was hit on the head by
a ball thrown by Pitcher Rusie, in the
base ball game to-day, is said to be suf-
feriug from conclusion of the brain. Boyle
of Baltimore was at first base, and
was playing off the base. Rusie made a
motion as though to throw the ball to
Clarke, New York's first baseman. Turn
ing quickly, however, he faced the bats
man, Jennings, and delivered a swift in
shoot, which struck the Baltimorean
above the left ear. Jennings turned COM
pletely around, then sank to his knees.
Players from both sides rushed to his
aid, and after awhile he recovered suffi-
ciently to take his base. He succeeded in
tallying a run. In the next inning he
went to his place at short stop and played
through the inning. Then he was taken
with nausea, a physician was called from
the grand stand and advised him to leave
the field. He wanted TO continue to play,
but was forced to leave and went to the
club house crying bitterly.

YEATES ALMOST SURE TO Go.

Mistake at Nashville.
Atlanta, Ga, June 28-Indications
strongly point to the fact that Geo,ogist
Yeates will have to go. There is no use
IN discussing the very strong indications
TO that effect. All the biologists, the last
three at least, had to go, but the important
question is will the department have to
go as 1t once did. 1t has before been clear
ly indicated in these dispatches that both
the governor and the attorney general were
outspoken in their opposition to the whole
business. The governor in an interview
secured from him in Nashville showed
more distinctly than heretofore the drift
of his mind. While admitting that the
Yeates exhibit is a good one, he expressed
then and to-day great indignati ton that
specimens from Georgia should have been
marked as though they were from Ala
bama. This may or may not have been
due to the carelessness of the geologist.
but Gov. Atkinson appears to attach more
than usual Importance to what NAV have
been a mere accident. But the big question
Is not whether Prof. Yeates has neglected
to stick on the right labels or not. but
whether the survey of the state. now lust
beginning to be largely useful. shall be
abandoned at his critical period.

BOLD RAID MADE IN A BANK.
-FOUR MASKED MEN HOLD-UP ALL
HANDS AND DECAMP,

The Cashier Giving Evidence of an
ders They Shoot on One of His Ears
The Safe and Counters Relieved of
Their Cash-The Robbers Escape
With a Posse in Pursuit and One of
Them Surrenders.
Omaha, Neb., June ga special to the
Bee from Deadwood, s. D.. says: -Four
masked men this morning made a desper-
ate attempt to rob the Butte county bank
at Belle Fourche Entering the bank with
revolvers drawn, they ordered the Gus
toners present and bank officials to hold
up their hands. A little hesitation on the
part of Cashier Marble drew shot from
che gun of one of the robbers which
&pped off a large portion of the cashiers
right ear and forced compliance with the
command.
''The safe and counters were relieved of
the cash they contained and the robbers
mounted their horses, which had been
conveniently stationed, and rode away.
An alarm was Immediately given and in
a few minutes we'll mounted and armed
posse was in pursuit of the robbers. With
in few miles from town the posse came
up with the fugitives and a running fight
ensued, which resulted in one of the
robbers throwing up his hands and sur
rendering.
THE others being better mounted con-
tinued their flight, but are being closely
pursued and have very few chances for
escape. The day was favorable for a raid
on the bank, as the weather was such
that it kept the townspeople off the street.
The robbers had little opposition and had
quite start before the alarm could be
given"
Omaha, Neb., June %, 10. p. MAS the
party started away after the assault on
the bank, an unusual display of firearms
on their part attracted the attention of
A. Giles, a merchant, who surmised that
something was wrong and gave an alarm.
Giles was made the target for q volley
from the robbers pistols, but escaped un-
injured.
The pursuit was prompt, the bandits
having barely time to unhitch their horses
and mount before being surrounded. In
the fight that followed, Walter Gay, of
Gay & Sons, was shot through the cheek,
receiving a painful wound. The outlaws
fired right and left while riding out of
the town, but no one else was wounded.
Thomas Day, the captured robber, was
overhauled half a mile from town, and
is now in Jail at Deadwood. He is a
stranger in the vicinity. The rest of the
gang are now at bay at the Three V
ranch few miles from Belle Fourche,
where they will likely be captured or
killed.
1t transpires that less than SIS was
taken from the bank, Cashier Marble
having slammed shut and locked the
doors of the vault at the entrance of the
robbers He was fired at three times,
only one shot taking effect. He tried
20 return the fire, but his pistol failed him
