THE CHARITY BAZAAR TRAGEDY.
The Paris Horror Recalled BY a Trial In
That City.

Paris, August 19.-Baron Mackau, one
of the chief promoters of the Charity
Bazaar of the Rue Jean Doujon, which
was destroyed on May 4th last with a loss
of over 100 lives, including that of the
Duchess D'Alencon, sister Of the Empress
of Austria, and Bailac and Begrachow,
two employees of the Cinematographe es-
tablishment in the bazaar, the section
where the fire broke out, were placed on
trial here today, charged with homicide
through their imprudence upon that occa-
sion. The Baron was not only one of
the chief promoters Of the fair, but he
presented the imfammable properties re-
presenting old Paris for the use of the
fair and also gave the use of the ground
upon which it was erected. The Baroness
Mackau was another victim of the con-
fagration.
The Judge who examined Baron Mackau
today praised his honorable character, but
reproached him for lack of precaution.
The trial will last three days. There are
33 witnesses to be examined.

Horses of Waterford Stage Break From
Driver and Give Passengers Scare.
ESPECIAL TO THE PREss.I

Norway, August 19.-The horses at
tached to the Waterford stage ran away
today, giving the passengers wild ride
of about two miles and narrow escape
from death. The driver, Wyman Nevers,
alighted at Norway lake to change the
mail and help off passenger. One of the
horses got his bride under the yoke and
tore it from his head. This with the
rustling of the mail bag frightened the
animal into a run, the other horse &C
companying him.
Mrs Annie Whitney of Rochester, N.
H., one of the passegers, pluckily took
the ruins, but could not control the
frightened horses. They ranEat full speed
about two miles to the village with the
women and children in the rocking coach
waving their hands and crying for help.
When the runaway horses reached Main
street they plunged against large elm,
horse dropping to the ground on each
side of the tree.
The passengers were: Mrs. Lorenzo
D. Hobbs, aged IA, of Norway; Mrs. S.
N. Dunton, her three-year-old deughter
Annie, of Gardiner, and Mrs. Annie
Whitney of Rochester, N. III. None were
injured.

Augusta, August 19.-Joseph Ellis, a
laborer and truckman with David Knox,
his cousin, and Albert Erskine, went to
Togus Wednesday and on their way home,

Carson place.
Ellis says the veterans demanded a
treat and he refused, that they were angry
and he and his companions retreated to
the yard; that the veterans followed and
one who had knife, rushed forward
and said he would cut the throat of
Ellis's horse. A fight followed and
Ellis received a bad cut on his left arm,
which exposed the bone, slash over the
left ear and knife wounds on his left
shoulder extending to the back,a cut on
his shin, several bruises from club on
his head and a dozen or more minor cuts
and bruises about his body and head.
Three women joined in the attack. Ellis

and drove the assailant into the house.
No medical attendance was called until
this morning and he is in critical con-
dition. Knox received one knife wound
on his arm. &c.

In A FRIENDLY vein.
Secretary shsrman's Reply to
Japanese Government.
SAYS JAPAN's RIGHTS WILL BE
SAFE GUA2DED.

The Policies Expressed Changed in No
Way From Those Previously Laid Down
-Japanese Legation Pleased With the
Friendly Spirit Displayed.
Washington, August 19.-Secretary
Sherman has substituted to the Japanese
government an answer to Japan's last
note relative to the annexation of Hawaii
to the United States. The answer was
delivered to Mr.. Hoshi, the Japanese
minister, last Saturday. 1t is in reply to
Japan's note of July 10 which up to that
time had not been acknowledged.
Mr.. Sherman's answer was marked by
its friendly expressions towards Japan,
which gives especial satisfaction in view
of the somewhat strained relations result
ing from the previous correspondence.
Two features are brought out by the an
swer: 1t reiterates the position hereto
fore taken by the secretary of state as to
the right and propriety of annexing
Hawaii to the United States. With this,
however, Is coupled an assurance that
the interests of Japan in Hawaii will be
fully safeguarded. 1t also expressed sat-
isfaction at the plan of arbitration be-
tween Japan and Hawaii. on the question
Japanese immigration to Hawaii. The
answer is largely an elaboration Of MIR.
Sherman's former letter. and the policies
expressed in no way differ from those
previously laid down by him.
Minister Hoshi has cabled the substance
of the answer to the Toxic government
and the full text of the answer has been
forwarded. 1t will not reach Japan until
September and no action may be taken
until the text is before the Japanese
foreign Office. The Japanese legation is
reticent over the despatch although there
is no effort to conceal the satisfaction felt
over the friendly spirit displayed through
out Mr.. Sherman's 8 answer. The atten-
tion # the Toxic government has been
particularly directed toward these ex-
pressions of good will.

QUESTION MINISTER WGODFORD
IS TRYING TO SOLVE.

Has Received No encouragement From
France or England-Minister White
Tries to Stop the Game Etc.-Rather a
Fishy Story From London Source.
London, August 2o.-The Daily Graph
ic publishes the following despatch from
Berlin: %G
General Stewart 4. Woodford, the
newly appointed minister to Spain from
the United States, has been instructed by
President Mckinley to ascertain the
limit of neutrality of the European pow
ers in the event that the United States
should deci de on an offensive policy
munication with the various American
ambassadors on the subject.
"Col. John Hay, the American am
bassador of Great Britain has received o
encouragement from Lord Salisbury.
Nj. Hanotaux, the French foreign mi n
lister, has emphatically refused to discuss
the matter with General Horace Po rter,
the American ambassador to France,
and for some days avoided granting an
audience to Gen. Woodford.
GAS last resource Gen. Woodford and
Gen. Porter telegraphed for, Mr.. White,
who has joined them. Mr.. White, W ho
is the cleverest American diplomat in
Europe, knows better than anyone in
President McKinley's S cabinet the futility
of the step now being taken. He has
avoided even mentioning it to the Ger
solved to do all in his power to dissuade
Gen. Woodford and Gen. Porter from any
course but one of moderation towards
Spain. !"

Pittsburg, August 19.-The coal opera
tors held a secret conference today. Inc
meeting was well attended. 1t was oe-
cided ito form an organization for the
special purpose of breaking the strike.
Peter NJ. Hitchcock, president of the Moon
run coal company, was made president.
The aggregate output represented at the
meeting was 5000, 600 tons year.
An agreement was drawn up which
provides that the signers shall pay assess
ments based on the producing capacity Of
their mines to fund to be raised for the
purpose of paying the expenses of break
ing the strike. Many Pittsburg operators
sent word that they would sign, even
though not present at the meeting. A
committee was appointed to carry on the
campaign.
. Col. Rend, after the meeting said: 'We
propose to operate our mines and if our
own men will not work then others will
take their Places
The striking campers at Plum Creek
and Turtle Creek marched again today.
The deputies formed line across the
road and warned them back as fast as
each pair came up. The strikers returned
to camp, but few of them later escaped

doing considerable missionary work.

THE BOOM IN WHEAT.
Price Took Another Jump Upwards Yes
terday.

New York, August 19.-Wheat gained
1-2 cents in price at one time today,
establishing another record figure for the
year. Conservative traders, however,
felt that news from Europe did not war
rant such sensational jumps as the ma r.
ket experienced today and withheld their
support. The result was an irregular list
of values all day, covering wide range
of prices.
By putting forth all their efforts the
bulls ran September to IS 3-4, or Is
cents above yesterdays highest point,
and 1-2 cents higher than last night 8
close.
The quotation for No. northern fob
afoat in this market at one time today,
on the nominal basis of six cents over
September was 1.01 3-4, and for No.
red SO 3-4 to 81 fob afloat.
In the late afternoon prices gave away
suddenly, losing 3-4 cents on Septem-
Der and 3 IA cents on December from the
highest point under heavy and excited
selling by scalpers, foreign houses and 9TH
ers. The close was very nervous on the
basis of 81 cents for September and 80 IA
cents for December. STILL later on the
curb September rallied to 81 is cents.
One of the DAYS features was the abund-
ance of foreign selling orders represent
ing profit taking on recent purchases, new
short account sales, etc. Late private
| cables asked for offers, but the actual ex-
port transactions were dlsappolntlngly
small, about 10, 100 bushels. Total flu
ture sales for the session were $685. 600
bushels
