HIS HencOop Strnddlcs the Line BE-
tween Arizona and Mexico.
There is Il funny case Of international
honesty down in Arizona, just on the
line between that territory and Mexico,
says the Washington Times. A Yam

in Mexico and chickens bring fine prices

Amasa is a Yankee, and he is so hon

Mr.. Barrow saves about so per cent,

any smuggling done it is done by the
innocent and irresponsible biddies.

AN IMPROBABLE YEAR.

Due to Southern Competition.

MANCHESTER, N. H., Oct. 6.-The stocShold-
ers of the Amoskeag Manufacturing Company
held their annual meeting to-day. Jefferson
Coolidge, the treasurer, said that the Amoskeag
mills had experienced an Improbable year. On
the whole the last year had been the poorest OF
all. They manufactured 95.3OS 1O1 yards Of cloth
during the year The earnings for the first six
months were $50. 32.33 and for the second six
months they lost SSs14Ss, making total gain
Of s766ls. AS a 5 per cent. dividend Of 5000. O0O
was paid the corporation lost Sl2S,3S2. The pros
poets he considered brighter, but he pointed out
the fact that the consumption of raw cotton in
the South was rapidly increasing, while in the
North il was falling off.
The annual meeting of the Star cotton mills
was also held here to-day. Two semi-annual
dividends of per cent were declared and paid on
capital stock. The matter of building a new mill
in the Southern States was indefinitely postponed.
At the annual meeting OF the Amory corporation
two seml-annual dividends of per cent were
declared. earned and paid on the capital stock
for the year lust ended. There was more cloth
on hand unsold than before reported in the
history Of the generation at any annual meeting.

CHICAGO'S MAYOR WROTH.
VIII Use His Army of Police to stop
Pollution of Lake Michigan.

CHICAGO. Oct. 6.-Mayor Harrison to-
day ordered stopped the dumping of dredg-
ings from the river along the lake shore
between Sixteenth and Thirty-second
streets The order applies both to the IL
linois Central Railway Company, which, it
is reported, is filling in land near Sixteenth
street on a permit from the secretary of
war, and to the contractors who have a
contract from the federal government for
dredging the river. Both the dredging COM
panies and the Illinois Central Railway
claim the right to dump the river dredg-
ings along the lake shore under the permit
of the secretary OF war and a clash be-
tween the local authorities and the repre-
sentaLiVeS of the federal government may
result. The mayor claims the city has
jurisdiction over the lake for a distance
of eight miles from the shore line for SAM
tary purposes. The dredgings, il is claimed.
are being washed out to the intake pipes
and polluting the city's water supply. The
mayor declares fatty that the Illinois Cen
trail Railway will not be permitted TO
further till in the lake with the. dredgings
ment to enforce his order.
WASHINGTON, Oct. ct was stated at
the War Department that the secretary
granted the permit for filing in the portion
of the lake front where the dumping was
being done The engineers found no obJec-
ton to the proposed filling. 1t is matter
with which the government has no further
concern, and is a question between the con-
tractors and the city of Chicago.

No Danger at Nashville.

NASHVILLE, Tenn, Oct. Cdr. George
N. Sternberg, surgeon general, U. S. A. and
president of the American Medical Associa-
ton, is here as member of the exposition
jury of awards. When asked to-day for his
opinion on the yellow fever situation in the
South, he said: 1.-THE season is now so far
advanced that do not believe there will be
any extension of the disease beyond the
localities where it is now prevailing"
AS to Nashville's danger of fever coming
here, he expressed the opinion that there is
no danger, saying that "rhere has not been
a case of yellow fever in the State of Ten
nesSee, and in the great epidemic of 1873
when the disease was widely spread
throughout the South, Nashville escaped en-
tirely. Indeed this city has never suffered
from an epidemic fever and this time there
is not the least cause for apprehension.

OPPOSED TO HOME RULE.
Passages from Queen Victoria's Let
ters to Lord Tennyson.


NEW YORK, Oct. ga copyrighted
cablegram from London to the Evening
Post says: mo little talk has been aroused
in political circles to-day over passages in
Lord Tennyson's biography which nearly
all the reviewers purposely or accidentally
overlook. Those passages in letters be-
tween Lord Tennyson and the Queen fur
nish the first direct evidence of the Queens
bitter and active hostility to the home-rule
policy of her then constitutional advisors
and quite upset the notion that the Queen
has become the mere echo of her ministers
views 1t is a well-known fact that the let
ters are now published by the deliberate
wish of her Majesty This lends peculiar
interest and Importance to the disclosure
suggesting either her belief that Irish home
rule is dead beyond recall, though Mr. John
Morley had this week nailed the home rule
colors to the Liberal mast, else her fixed
determination to withhold her acceptance
of such constitutional change.
Mr.. Gladstone was the Queens prime
minister In June, 1885. and by the Constitu-
ton the recipient of her political conf
dences, yet she was at this time writing to
Lord Tennyson on political topics in a let
ter which lis withheld, but which, as Lord
Tennysons reply suggests, was in opposi-
ton to Mr.. Gladstone's views. Again in
April 1886, two days after Mr.. Gladstone
again, as the Queens first minister intro
duced the home rule bill in the Commons
lIe queen writes. cannot IN tnlS letter
allude to politics, but l know what your
feelings must be- which Lord Tennyson
accepts in his reply as a reference to the
disastrous policy of the day. and declares
that he would die rather than see the
rebellious loyalsts of Ulster depressed.
This evidence Of the Queens stepping out
side of her constitutional advisers to con-
denim the Irish cause, and possibly embar-
rass her ministers will only cause
much pain in Ireland, If it does not create
political troubles. Even the Times ques-
tons whether it is discreet to publish the
letters

STRIKE CAUSED BY A KISS.
Other Men Quit Because the OscuIa,
tory Offender WAS Dismissed.

NEW CASTLE, Pa, Oct. 6.-Because he
kissed or attempted to kiss one of the fair
English lassies employed in the busting de-
partment of the New Castle tin plate works
Richard Kissinger was discharged. He is a
member CT the Patent Machine Timers
Union, which is affiliated with the Fedora
ton of Labor. Stealing kiss was not suffi-
cient excuse for discharging workman, the
officials of the union said. and they de-
manded Kissingers reinstatement. This was
refused and a strike was ordered yesterday.
About 200 men and boys are out. The COM
pany does not claim the girl objected to the
kissing, but Kissinger says the superin-
tendent of the mill wanted to get rid of him
and took this means of doing it. The girl
says he did not kiss her, but even if he did
the otfense was not serious enough to cause
suspension of work The strikers say they
viii not return until Kissinger is reinstated.
If new men are hired there viii lie trouble,

CAPTURE OF CANUDOS.
Brazilian Fanatics Defeated and
Their Leader a Prisoner.

RIO DE JANEIRO, Oct. 6-Canudos, the
stronghold of the fanatics, Under Antonio
Conselheiro, has fallen. 1t has been cap
tured by the government troops after des-
perate engagement with the revolutionists.
Antonio Conselheiro has been taken prison
err.
This is the third announcement from Rio
Janeiro since April last of the capture of
CanudoS by the government troops. But it
is the first time that Antonio COnselheiro,
the leader of the fanatics. has been re-
ported among the prisoners. If this extra
ordinary individual, a strange combination
fallen into the hands of the government
troops, the cause of the fanatics has suf-
fered the most damaging blow it has yet
received. Antonio, the counsellor as he is
called by his followers, has been from the
outset the backbone of the insurrection in
Bahia, and without his presence and direc-
ton it is likely to collapse.

WAS HE sANDBAGGED.
Edward Langtry Suffering from Con-
cusSfon of the Rrnin

cusStoR of the Brain.
LONDON, Oct. 6-The physicians at the
Chester asylum, IN which Edward Langtry.
the former husband of Mrs Langtry, is
confined, believe he is suffering from con-
cussion of the brain. AS stated in previous
dispatches, it is supposed from the incoher-
ent utterances of the demented man that
he fell down companion ladder on
steamer while crossing the Irish channel.
His appearance, however, when taken
into custody by the police, indicated that he
had been very roughly handled
OF course, here in London, where it is
known that Mrs. Langtry is anxious to wed
Gen. Prince Louis of Esterhazy there are
many unpleasant rumors current to the eff
feet that her unfortunate husband has been
the victim of foul play These rumors, how
ever, are unworthy of much attention, for
they are based on the superstition that the
California divorce which Mrs. Langtry has
secured at San Francisco is as invalid as
American divorces usually are in cases
where the husband is an Englishman and
has his legal domieile in England. and that
Mr.. LangJry is, therefore, an insurInount-
aole opStacle to any new marriage on the
part of the Jersey Lily. The fact is that
Mrs: LangtryS divorce is perfectly legal
IN the eyes OF the English court. for the
circumstance lnat she was married TO Mr.
Iangtry, not In England, but on the Island
of Jersey. has been entirely lost sight of by
everybody. except by her lawyers. Jersey,
like the other channel islands, has a code
of laws entirely distinct from those of Eng
land in certain places. According to these
laws. it is open to Mrs. Langtry to obtain
a divorce wherever she may choose to es-
tablish her own legal domicile and she is
exempt from the disadvantages to which
she would be subjected had she been a
full-fedged English woman and married ac-
cording to the laws of England and i'm
England, instead of in the channel islands
This is sufficient 10 point out that, from
nothing to obtain from the death of the
husband whom she deserted so long ago.

principal members of the oldest arstocracy

One Hundred Cases to Date.

MOBILE, Ala, Oct 6.-The total cases of
yellow fever here reached the hundred mark
to-day The actual total to date at noon
was ninety-nine; total deaths to date, six
teen. There were no deaths reported to-
day and only four new cases, namely:
Charles Eastburn.
Sister Generosa, City Hospital.
Mar Mcdonald, Marine street, corner
Palmetto
Willie W. X. Smith, Warren street, near
Savannah.
All the cases are in the old infected dis
trict The relief work proceeded to-day
with commendable rapidity. Many in desti-
tuition were helped. In some instances there
were found families who by reason of sick
ness of members or by having their bread
winner out of work were without the least
bit of food in the house. Some very touch
ing appeals have reached the committee
from people who are usually in good circum-
stances but are now compelled to ask for
assistance.
