GRANDMA M'KINLEY HURT.
Presidents Venerable Mother Hns a
bad Fall.

Canton, o., July 6.-President Nc
Kinley arose at an early hour Monday
morning and undertook to take stroll
through the yard before the sun was
high in the heavens. He found his aged
mother up and sitting on the front
porch. After a short walk with her he
went into his room to take n morning
shave He had no more than fairly be-
gun than Mother Mckinley met with a
serious accident, for one of her age.
In walking on the porch piece of stray
carpeting had slipped as she took step
and she fell to the floor striking her
forehead over the eyes on a doorstep.
Although SO years old she was not so
stunned but that she was able to arise
in few moments and walk to stand
where she washed away the blood that
flowed from the wound, but made light
of the occurrence to Miss Helen Nc
Kinley who happened in.
The presidents sister. however, in
stantly notified him that his mother
was hurt, and, finding a deep cash in
her head, he did not walt to summon
messenger, but started in haste to Sc
cure a doctor. Mother Mckinley con-
l4Hueu W lldhe LSnl Vi tue injury, anu
insisted a little court plaster could fix
it, Her courage was admirable when
the doctor found the cut so deep as to re-
quire sewing up. This she would have
done without taking an anesthetic. At
noon she did not seem to be suffering Sc
riously from the shock and was rest
ing easily. The string of callers at the
house did not begin until some time
after this accident, the news of which
did not reach the citizens for some
| hours.
A lawn picnic on the grounds of Miss
Bucllingham's private school just
across the street from the Mckinley
homestead was the programme for the
afternoon. Miss buckingham will ac-
company the McKinleys to Washington
as their guest at the white house.

Word Is Given Out of the "COmplete
Publication" of Santa Clara Province.
Havana, July Cen. Weyler, after
his arrival at Sancti Spiritus, province
of Santa Clara, issued proclamation
to the insurgents and pacificos, saying
that the approaching inauguration OF
the scheme of reforms for Cuba was
more important than the insurrection-
ary movements in the province OF
Santa Clara, adding: Therefore,
will pardon all who surrender with or
without arms. They may give them
selves up at any military station by
making signs with handkerchiefs, SO
that the troops may know their inten-
ton to surrender.
Official advices from Sancti Spiritus
say that the insurrection in that dis
trict has so completely collapsed that
the troops which have been on duty
there are being sent eastward.
In the district of Cienfuegos, the in
surgent bands under the leaders AL
fredo Rego, Camacho Pancho, Carrillo
Clavero, Pancho Perez and Quintin
Bandera united with view of protect
ing Gen. Gomez from the pursuit of the
Spanish column. The combined bands
then moved westward and so favored
the retreat of Gomez. Gen. Weyler
Immediately ordered active operations
to be undertaken, with the result that
the insurgent plan has been frustrated.

HAND OF THE LAW.

1t IL Invoked Against Striking Coal Miners
by Receivers of Railway Company-In'
junction Issued by United states Judg'
Taft.
Cincinnati, July IA very important
step was taken here Tuesday in con.
nection with the coal miners strike
which puts the power of the United
States against all violence or unlawful
acts in at least a portion of the terri
tory in Ohio. An order of the United
States circuit court was made by Judge
Taft, upon showing made by Myron
I. Herrick and Robert Blickensderfer,
receivers of the Wheeling & Lake Erie
Railway Co. and the Wheeling, Lake
Erie 81 Pittsburg Coal Co., whereby the
United States marshal is directed tc
protect their miners at work and to
prevent unlawful interference with the
operation of their railway.
The receivers state that they are en-
gagged in the operation of two coal
mines of the Wheeling, Lake Erie &
Tittsburg Coal Co., known as the Dill.
lonvale and Long Run coal mines; that
there is strike among the mine work
ers of Ohio and other states; that all
of the 500 miners at Dillonvale and
one-half of the 400 at the Long Run
mine are desirous of remaining at
work, but have refr aimed from so do
ing by reason of threats and warnings
from other miners who have Joined the
strike; that it is necessary for the
mines to continue in operation and
that the miners will continue at work
if protected from physical injury tc
themselves and their property.
The receivers also represented to the
court that they have been advised that
in their operation of the Wheeling s
Lake Erie railway they will not be
permitted to transport over the roaC
what is known as Virginia coal, re
ceived from connecting lines; that they
regard the situation as serious and are
placing watchmen to guard the wooder
bridges along their railway at night
and that large body of men are liable
to come upon the property at any time
to prevent their men from working
They therefore ask the protection Of
| the court.
Judge Taft gave an order to the
United States marshal to consult with
the receivers of this court and send tC
Jefferson county and to other parts o-
this district a sufficient number Of
United States marshals to protect the
mining and railroad property now be
ing operated by these receivers under
order of this court. The marshal anC
his deputies are directed to arrest any
persons destroying property or threat
ening or doing violence to any person:
in the employ of the receivers, for the
purpose of preventing them from con
tinuing in the employ of the receivers
until proper proceedings for contempt
of court can be instituted against tn,
offenders
The impression among both oper
ators and miners is that West Vir
ginia will be able to supply the de
mand for coal in the event of pro
longed strike.

LEAPED TO HIS DEATH.
Capt. Keeble Killed by n Jump from
the brooklyn Bridge.

the brooklyn Bridge.
New York, July 5.-Another candi-
date for fame met death Sunday in
jumping from the Brooklyn bridge.
He was Capt. w. C. Keeble, who had a
reputation for jumping from bridges
and masts of vessels. The bridge po-
lice received q tip of the coming
event on Saturday evening. Capt Ward
at once ordered three patrolmen sta
toned ut either end of the bridge. while
an officer in citizens clothes was sent
10 watch the house where it was learn ed
that Keeble lived. The officer remained
there until nine o'clock Sunday morn
ing, when he returned to the bridge of
flee. Two hours later Keeble, with
three companions, left the house in a
coach and drove to the Catherine street
ferry, where they crossed over to Brook
lyn and from there went to the bridge
entrance, paid their fare and proceeded
slowly to the center of the span on the
north roadway, when the coach stopped
and the party alighted.
Officer Thomas Grady. who was some
distance away saw Keeble climb to the
top of the rail, and, running toward
him, shouted to him to stop. Before
he could reach him the man had leaped
feet foremost. His body made two com
plete revolutions before it reached the
water. 140 feet below when it struck
the water with a splash, disappearing
and was not seen afterwards. The
police arrested the driver of the coach
and five others. Keeble, it was learned
was formerly a sergeant in CoNey's
army and up to four weeks ago Il waiter
in a restaurant. He left his employ
ment to make preparations for the
jump which he hoped would make him
famous as museum freak He was
an Englishman by birth, 30 years ole
and unmarried. His clothing had been
removed while within the coach and he
took the fatal leap in Il sweater with
the arms cur off. drawers reaching only
to the knees and Il pair of aigh-laced
shoes. Keeble was the 23d man to make
the foolhardy experiment of jumping
from the bridge
