RUSHING GRAIN TO CHICAGO.
Result of tn. Speculative Price Last Wee,

hh0Hutt VI "eeAs
Chicago, Dec. 13.-The wheat bulls
began to feel to-day the effect of the
prices which they permitted last week.
The inspection sheet showed there had
been rush of grain In this direction
from every quarter, as much, probably,
as 100000 bushels contract grain In the
forty-eight hours. A little inquiry
showed that the inspection sheet did
not begin to show all the arrivals. One
elevator concern had cargoes aggregat-
ing 100000 bushels In the river, not n
bushel OF which had been Inspected
Armour and Weare had cargoes in,
and the ear lots showed a jump. The
majority of this grain was to fill short
sales made months ago. Some Of II had
evidently been brought. however. to
get the benefit of the Chicago Decem-
Der price. There was scattered De-
cember selling. largely by elevator peo-
pie, against new receipts OF this sort.
Armour was credited with more of II
than any other interest.
The December bulls themselves sold

cause the market would not take much.
and because Armour was selling
enough TO make the price weak. but
they finally helped TO break the price.
Everybody Is still astonished that the

MICHAEL sPANoLER DEAD.
Could Not Survive the Effects of n Terrible
Accident.

Denver, Dec. 13.-Michael Spangler,
who was injured while ascending the
shaft of the Crown Point and Virginia
mine at Central City last Tuesday,
died at st. Joseph's hospital yesterday
afternoon fifteen minutes after 3
o'clock. exactly five days. within few
minutes. from the time OF the acci-
dent.
With that wonderful endurance
which he has displayed since he re-
ceived the injury that resulted in his
death, Mr.. Spangler began the last
days battle for life, and although
weak almost to the point OF prostra-
tion, he recognized his wife and child
rem as they gathered at his bedsiGe yes
terday morning. The surgeons who
have been attending the injured man
were on hand and to them It was plain
ly seen that the end was fas; approach
ing. II was only the robust physique
and the strong will power Of the suf-
fercr that has KEEP, the spark Of life In
his body during these five days and
while every hope was held out that he
might rally sufficiently to give his in
jury chance to repair, nothing could
stay the gradual failing OF strength that
brought an end to his pain.

FAIR TRIAL BY A MOB.
Miss'ssippl Negroes Tired by Judge Lynch
and Acquitted.

dnzelhurst, Miss, Dec. 12.-In IN
open field. without house In sight, on
Il high hillside. with Il crowd of eager
men waiting to avenge the terrible
murder that has taken place In Law
renee county In case n conviction was
reached by the impromptu court. the
scene lighted by fiaring plne-knot
torches, held aloft In the hands OF the
waiting mob, the three negroes. Giles
Berry, VIII Powell and Tom Wallen,
were standing trial for their life last
night at Bankstone Ferry. According
to reports received mt this place from
the scene about 1 o'clock this after
noon the quickly constituted court did
not arrive at n conclusion last night.
The negroes We're arrested with
Lewis, who was lynched Friday Mt the
time of the original crime. but were
released on their promising TO appear
next morning ns witnesses. They did
not put In an appearance when the
trial was ready to begin, and search
was made for them by the mob. The
search was successful and the negroes
when caught were brought back. Then
the suspicion that they We're impli-
Gated with Lewis In the original crime
arose. According to their own story
they were with Lewis the night before.
The three men testified that they slept
In a cotton house about mile and a
half from the Smith house. where the
horrible butchery took place, and that
Lewis was with them all night, mt
least he was there when they went to
sleep and was there when they awoke
the next morning.
There are about 200 men In the mob,
constituting u committee of the whole
for the trial. Reliable reports received
here to-day from messenger who left
the scene OF the trial state that the
mob is very moderate IN its action and
has cooled down considerably. The
negroes, though badly scared maintain
their denial Of amy completely In the
crime. A telephone message from
Hon. Walter Catchings OF Georgetown
states That two other negroes have
been arrested on suspicion.

CHRISTIANS IN TURKEY.
Report Of tho American Board Gives Late
Facts,

Boston, Mass, Dec. 14.--The Ameri-
can Board of Foreign Mission made
public to-day its elghty-seventh annual
report.
The receipts from the New England
states amounted to n total of $780,
49,. ~. The total receipts from all
sources were $642,7S1.O7.
The report deals at length with Turk
ish massacres and says that while
many Christians We're killed or fled,
the number of professed Christians ex
ceeds that previous to the outrages.
The wounded left by massacres and
robbery have been slowly healing, al-
though in some places the suffering has
been quite as great as in the previous
year. Generous gifts that have come
well nigh from every European state
for the sufferers by massacre and for
the care of orphans are gratefully ne
knowledged and have revealed the es-
sentiaf unity of the civilized world in n
most impressive way.
The demand for indemnity for losses
incurred at HarpOOt and Mnnasch,
amounting In all to 100000, was
pressed as yet without result. The
changed conditions at ConstantinOple
and the arrival of DIR. Angel, the new
United States minister to the porte.

The massacres In which Mt least
5000 Armenians were slaughtered In
Constantlnople were the result Osten-

MRS. M'KINLEY DEAD.
PASSED AWAY SUNDAY MORN
ING.
Tho President still Present-Funcral to BE
Held Tuesday Afternoon In the Metho-
dist Church at Canton.

Canton, O., Dec. 13.-Mrs. Mckinley
passed from life at few minutes past
2 o'clock yesterday morning, with all
her children and other immediate rel
/ atives at her bedside. She did not suf-
fer any in her last hours, but gradu-
ally passed from the deep, palsied
sleep in which she has rested almost
constantly for the past ten days, Into
the sleep of death.
No word could be secured from the
house for some hours before the dis
solution. Knocks Of reporters, as
well us those of telegraph messengers,
were unanswered. At 2:35 an under
taker was summoned and the first
publicity given to the public of the
death.
At the dawn of day 1t was felt that
the end was Mt hand, for about that
time she experienced one of the sink
ing spells common to the illness and
for long time seemed so nearly in
animate that it appeared no rally was
possible. But the rally came, and
with 1t condition In which she was
able to take small amount of liquid
nourishment, the first she has taken
since last Monday. This wns followed
by such a peaceful repose as to revive
the hope, which was realized, that she
would live through the day. In the
afternoon another period of anxiety
was experienced by the watchers.
Another sinking spell came, and for
time 1t seemed us though 1t would be
the last.
The doctor called at $50 o'clock and
reported that he found material
change for the worse, such as he re-
garded as certain to bring about final
dissolution during the night. He had
not even faint hope that she could
live until morning.
Funeral services over the remains OF
Mrs. Mckinley will be held in the
First NJ. +. Church of this city at /
O'Clock Tuesday afternoon. Interment
VIII follow In Westlawn cemetery
Just west of the city, and Tuesday
evening President Mckinley and wife
and officials from Washington who at
tend the funeral will leave for the
capital. reaching there about noon

STRIKE OF PRINTERS
NETWORK JOB MEN wlLLoo OUT
A Determined Effort to Cut the Day to
Nine Hours International Union Will
Back Thcm.

New York, Dec. lit is probable
that within forty-eight hours the 1000
printers employed In the lG2 book and
job printing offices Of this city Will be
idle-the result of strike.
Typographical Union No. has
taken the first step. The union men,
in special session, have decided to give
the boss" printers until Tuesday
night to accede to the demand for II
nine-hour day. If by that time the de-
mand remains unrecognized, the print
ers will strike, and the union has
agreed to levy 4 per cent. campaign
tax upon every dollar earned by the
total union membership of 10000, to
be used as fund to support the strike.
A month ago the Typographical
Union No. O requested the proprietors
of book and job offices to meet the
wishes OF their employees and fix up
nine hours as working day. Prior
to this the printers Of this country and
Canada had by n two-thirds vote de-
clared for the same principle and had
authorized the International Union to
force the issue. The employers We're
duly notified, but they seemingly ig-
nOred the matter. Then the TypOth-
etae held a meeting, and. according to
the report given out by one of its
members resolution was passed de-
clining to make nine hours a working
day and subscribing $4,000 as n de
fense fund" with which to fight any
attempt to enforce the demand.
All the union book and job printers
of the United States and Canada are
watching the struggle. If the New
York printers win, their brethren else
where will probably insist on the new
time schedule, to the fight for which
they are already committed by the ac-
tion of the International Union.

WORK FOR CONGRESS-.
In the House Fight viii BE Made UpoI
the Civil Service Law,

In the House Fight Will Be Made Upon
the Civil Service Law,
Washington, Dec. 13.-If the present
program is carried out Congress will
adjourn for the holiday recess next
Saturday.
The week In the House promises to
be made memorable by the formal in
auguration Of the war against the civil
service law. The legislative, execu-
tive and judicial appropriation bill,
which will be taken up Tuesday, con-
tains the regular appropriations for
the civil service commission, and
whether or not all the members who
favor the repeal or modification Of the
law unite to strike down the provi-
sion for Its maintenance as the quick
est and most direct method Of Grip
pling its operation, undoubtedly some
will advocate this course and the
whole civil service question will be
dragged into the arena Of debate.
How long the debate will last it is i'm
possible to predict, but as this is the
only item in the bill which will at
tract much Of n contest, Chairman
Cannon hopes and believes the bill
can be passed before Saturday. This
Inter day, under an order made on
Thursday, has been set aside for pay
ing tribute to the memory of the late
Representative Cooke of Illinois.
Chairman Hit of the foreign af-
fairs committee will again seek to &C.
cure the passage of the bill to pro-
hibit pelaglc sealing by citizens of the
United States. There is some very
strong opposition to the passage of
this measure In its present form and
the whole question of the Bering sea
negotiations may be precipitated
when it is called up. Mr.. Hopkins Of
Illinois and other members favor
Limitation Of the period of the opera
tion of the act, If 1t is to be passed,
so that in case Great Britain refuses
to restrict similarly her citizens our
citizens may not be placed Mt disad-
vantage. Others like Mr.. johnson of
North Dakota think the extinguish-
ment Of the seal herds in the near fu-
ture is certain and are not disposed
to favor any legislation looking to
their preservation.
The work of the Senate, so far as It
has been mapped out for the week.
includes the consideration of the i'm
migration bill, which stands on the
calendar as the unfinished business,
the probable debate OF the census bill
and the pronouncing of culogics upon
the late Representative Holman OF In.
diana. The general opinion among
friends of the measure Is that there
will be no very strenuous opposition
to the immigration bill, and that It
may be passed after brief debate.

New York, Dec. 1T. Estrada Pal
ma, representative of the Cuban pro-
visional government, has received from
General MaXimo Gomez a copy of a
proclamation he has recently issued.
rejecting autonomy. The document,
which is addressed to the army of lib
GRAFTON. reads:
General Blanco, the substitute for
the blood-thirsty Wcyler, who despises
and threatens us. comes TO establish
new features in this war. He says so
in his proclamation to the country and
to the army. but we do not desire to
make any changes. and the war Will
be carried on by us just the same as
we commenced II, since all my cir
culars are In accordance with civilized
warfare. Everything that helps the
enemy must he destroyed and every
thing that seems to harass him must
be accomplished. This is our right.
"Our purposes have been well de-
fined and sufficiently proclaimed TO the
world. We aim at the independence of
our country. Cuba for the Cubans /,
America for the Americans.
"To attain these high and honorable
results. we rely on our pledged honor,
the possession Of the island and the
lapse Of time. Resources TO carry on
the struggle will spring forth from our
resistance. The hopes OF Spain to sub
due us are already blasted. General
Blanco represents her last and final
resort"
