Hov. Bradley Denies Pearl Bryan's Muir.
derer Ciemency and He win Hang on
March 20.
FRANKFORT, KY, March 13-Gov.
Bradley has refused to show mercy to
Scott Jackson, who must hang on
March 20 for Pearl Bryan's murder
The decision of the governor was
made pablo at 1:45 o'clock Friday af-
ternoon. The entire morning had
been spent by him in careful review
of the evidence in the case, of ATTORNEY
Crawford's appeal and of the law gov
erning executions in Kentucky.
The fact that no decision has vet
been made public in Wa1ling's appeal
has strengthened the belief here that
clemency may be shown Walling
This may be merely respite, in the
hope of confession upon the gallows
from the lips of Scott jackson; or it
may be communication of the death
penalty to imprisonment in the Frank
fort penitentiary for life
Col. Washington, of Newport, who
is here, is hopeful for his client.
The time of Gov. Bradley's decision
was surprise. Earlier in the morn
ing he said that he would not be able
to reach decision before nightfall.
NEWPORT. KY, March 13.-The body
of Scott Jackson, after the execution
March 20, will probably be turned
over to Undertaken Costigan, of the
firm of NJ. j. Costigan & Co., of New
port, who will prepare it for shipment
to Greencastle, Ind. Mr.. Costigan is
the former city clerk of Newport.
Attorney William Disney mailed to
Gov. Bradley Friday morning an ap.
peal for Jackson and Walling. Dis.
ney's communication is purely techni-
cal, and ne reviews the situation as a
lawyer.
He assumes an utter lack of proof OF
the location of the crime and he thinks
the charge of Judge Helm to the jury
was manifestly against the interests OF
the prisoners.
Gov. Bradley's refusal to interfere
with Jackson's case is as follows:
1.-THE verdict of the jury and the
Judgment of the circuit court were
carefully reviewed by the court of ap.
peals and the Judgment affirmed. On
petition for rehearing the opinion OF
the court was agreed to. Nothing has
transpired since that time which was
not considered. have carefully read
the record and see no reason which
would authorize my interference. The
pardon is therefore refused. d.-Wm. O.
Bradley, governor of Kentucky
1t was announced at the executive
Office that the Walling case would not
be passed upon until Saturday.

A DECREASE
In Immig ration During the Past Sevss
Months-Many Deportatisns and strict
Examinations the Cause.

Months-Many Deportatisns and strict
Examinations the Cause.
WASHINGTON, March 13 There haa
been a decrease in immigration during
the past seven months compared with
the same period last year of As, 525.
Commissioner Stump explains the de-
crease as follows:
The many deportations and strict
examinations of the immigrant to the
United States, has caused large in
crease of immigration from Europe to
Brazil, Argentine Republic and other
South American countries, where in
ducements are held out for their migra-
ton. Italian immigration will be SER
iously checked by the proclamation OF
the Marquis di Rudini, minister of the
interior for the kingdom, warning un-
deSira BILE classes from embarkatlon
and refusing passports.
WASHINGTON, March 13.-Hon Ben
ton f. McMillin of Tennessee, has
been appointed chairman OF the ex-
ecutive committee of the national as
sociation of democratic clubs of which
Hon. Chauncey Black, of Pennsylvania,
is president. The other members of
the committee will be announced in
few days and it is said only those who
were loyal to the Chicago platform
will be appointed.
WASHINGTON, March 13-The repub-
lican members of the ways and means
committee were working over the pot
tery and wooden schedules of the tariff
bill Friday and endeavoring to arrange
the reciprocity clauses so as to open
French and German markets to Amer
lean products and live stock. A good
deal OF trouble is being found in puT
ting the woolen and pottery schedules
in form satisfactory to all interests.
The committee are endeavoring to
agree upon specific duties instead
of ad valorem rates which formed
a part of the Mckinley law as we'll as
the present law. The wool growers
are vsry much dissatisfied with the
rates of the carpet wool and the COM
mittee is endeavoring to adopt gen.
eral scale of specific duties. The great
variety of articles in the pottery
schedule makes the specific system diff
fcult to arrange, but efforts in that di-
rection are being made. The Mckin-
icy SCHSuu1OS o1 ooCh C1CoO al OASACo al =
likely to be embodied in the bill to
be introduced in the house next week,
leaving changes to be made, if they
are found practicable, at later stage
in the consideration of the measure.
The resolution adopted for compelling
France and Germany to abolish their
restrictions upon American live stock
and meat products is the offer of slight
concessions in the duties upon mineral
waters, champagnes, gloves, silks,
chicol and argol.

Widow of the Man Alleged to Have Been
Murdered in n Cuban Prison, Calls on
Secretary Sherman.
WASHINGTON, March 13.-Secretary
Sherman had a call shortly before 10
O'Clock Friday by appointment from
Mrs. Ruiz, widow of the man who is
alleged to have been murdered in
the military prison of Guauabacoa.
Cuba, several weeks ago. Mrs Ruiz
was accompanied by her five children
and an interpreter, whose presence
was needed, as she is unable to speak
a word of English. The interview,
which lasted about five minutes, was
devoted to a pathetic recital of the
total destitution of the family and
their reliance upon the United
States to secure indemnity from
Spain on account OF the death of Ruiz,
who it is claimed was a naturalized
American citizen practicing dentistry
for the past Is years in Cuba. Secre-
tary Sherman, after hearing the COM
plant, suggested that it would be nee
essary to put the petition in writing,
when the department would give it
prompt consideration.

THE INSURGENTS
Make a Raid on the Suburbs of Havana
Spanish Soldiers and Officers Captured.

Make a Raid on the Suburbs of Havana
Spanish Soldiers and Onicers Captured.
New YORK, March 13.-A Press spe-
cial from Jacksonville, Fla, says:
Cuban Leader Acosta made raid on
the suburbs of Havana within half a
mile of two block houses Wednesday
night, capturing 35 Spanish soldiers
and two officers. The attack was
made on the turnpike or military road,
, as it is called, one of the best fortified
roadways on the island.
The point of attack was a little ham,
let where there were two large store
houses containing considerable ammu-
milton and also clothing for the Span
ish forces. The two block houses were
located within half mile of the place.
The Cubans dashed in, looted the store
houses and then set fire to them.
They then retreated rapidly to the
right and came up in the rear of Is
abella block house. The troops in
this, seeing the burning buildings,
rushed out leaving only small guard
behind. The insurgents perceiving
this, managed to break in the block
house door and in ten minutes were in
full possession. Knowing that they
could not retain them, they looted
the building of all equipments
that would be valuable to them,
consisting of two stands of arms
and considerable ammunition. They
spiked the small field piece
and setting fire to the house inside
dashed off rapidly. The Spanish pur-
sued them within a half an hour, but
came back two hours later and report
ed that the rebels could not be found.
The only report made in Havana re-
garding this engagement was that
force of rebels had been dispersed, but
the main facts are know aH over town.

MIR. BROOKS STATEMENT.

The following is a statement of Mr..
Brooks in regard to the Gaming of the
Hon. Charles Sumner in 1856:
In the Senate of the United States,
on the 10Th and Goth Of May, Mr..
Sumner, of Massachusetts,, delivered a
speech, in which he reflected injuri-
ously upon the State of South Carroll
ma, and wa particularly offensive to
Senator Butler, who is my relative.
I preferred to see the published
speech, and saw it for the first time on
Wednesday morning. The objection
able passages are to be found on the
fifth, twcnty-ninth and thirtieth pa
gcs Of Mr.. Summers speech, which |
have marked with a pen, and arc as
follows: But before entering upon the
argument, &c. AS soon as / read the
speech I felt it my duty to infict some
return for the insult to my State and
relative. On Wednesday | took seat
in the Capitol grounds, expecting Mr..
Sumner to pass. While going down
the lower steps of the Capitol I met
Mr.. Edmundson, of Virginia, who is
my personal friend, and asked him to
walk with me to the seat. 1 then in
formed him that it was my purpose to
see Mr.. Sumner, and that as he might
be accompanied by several Of his
friapds, I desired him to remain with
, Eitness, and for nothing else.

Bicycles and Liquor.

The bicycle is the enemy of the
liquor habit for two reasons 1t APP
propriatcs both for it's purchase and
for it's use the spare money Of the
young mai that formerly went largely
to the saloon keeper, and it makes
impossible ovcr-indulgencc in intoxi-
eating drinks, because 1T can be opc-
rated only to advantage by a strong
limbcd and clcar-headed rider. The
men who own bicycles to-day arc not
the m%illionaircs, but the wagc-earners
of the country, and their machines
were bought from the money that they
were enabled to save by %cconomizing
in some other direction. And what
is more reasonable than that this
economy should be first put in practice
by cutting off the luxury of drinking ?

What Clemson Trustees Propose to Do.

The Board of Trustees Of Clemson Col
lege are making every endeavor to have
the College open next month with the
usual attendance and no pains will be
spared to take all possible precautions
against q recurrence Of the recent epidem-
10 of fever at the College. Yesterday
Governor Ellerbe had considerable tosay;
about what the Board has been doing,
and he gives 1t as his opinion that parents
can well afford to send their boys to,
Clemson In September, resting; assured
that they will be in no danger whatever,
though the State Board of Health, In ac-
cordance with the law, asked the detail.
of an experienced government officer to;
go to Clemson and get at the cauBes Of
the recent epidemic and superil,tend
whatever work Is necessary to forever re-
move those causes. In speaking OF the
matter, he said:
"The Trustees of Clemson College are.
Clemson College buildings In good sani-
tary condition and to remove all causes of
the recent epidemic Of fever and to pre-.
vent q recurrence. All the recommends
atoms Of the State Board Of Health, which
made an inspection of Clemson College
after the fever, will be carried out.
"The Trustees instructed me, as Cover
nor, to request the State Board OF Health
to ask DR.. Wymsn, the surgeon general.
Of the marine hospital service, to enc an
expert sanitary engineer and .bacteriolo-
gist to Clemson to examine the buildings
and grounds with a view to assisting In.
the work Of putting them In a satisfactory
sanitary condition and prevent any re-
ourrence of fever In the future"
The return Of Prof. j.. s. Newman to,

ever had. He will again take charge OF

Scasick Women.

Arc women more subject to scasick-
ness than men?
An Atlantic captain replies: eyes,
but on the other hand, they stand it
better. A woman struggles up to the
point of despair against the-what |
might call the improperly of the thing.
She isn't so much tortured by the
pangs as she is worried by the pros
pcct of becoming dishcvelled, haggard
and draggled. She fights against it to
the last, and keeps up appearances as
long as she can hold up her head.
Then she becomes maudlin and pa
thctic. She takes to her room and in
variably asks three questions. First,
whether people die Of scasickness,
then, how many miles we are from
shore, and lastly, when shall We get
there. She also often asks how deep
the water is, and if I think it possible
for any one to go seven days without
food. The doctor is always talked
over I am asked time and again if !!
think he is capable and efficient, aud
if 1 have confidence in him. When
the patient gets so i'll that she loses
interest in the doctor she usually lies
on her side and cries by the hour.
But luckily, the more violent attacks
only last q short time
GLOW is it with men?'
ooh, men give in at once. They
make a great rumpus until they arc
compelled to take to their bcrths:
Then they grumble and groan until
they arc we'll enough to go on deck

aboard loaded with medicine for the
prevention of scasickncss. | never
