SITUATION IN ITALY.
Disturbances So Grave Martial Law
Has Been Proclaimed.

ROME, May 1.-THE general situation here
is regarded as being distinctly grave. 1t
now seems to be clearly demonstrated that
politics are mixed up in the disturbances
which have occurred in various parts of
the kingdom, owing to the high price of
bread, and the clerical party is believed to
be fomenting the disorder. A royal decree,
issued to-day, proclaimed martial law
throughout Tuscany, one of the most fer
tile and best cultivated parts of Italy.
There was a renewal Of serious rioting at
Florence, the capital of Tuscany, last night
and there were further disturbances at
Leghorn, capital of the province of that
name, situated on the Mediterranean,
about fifty miles from Florence. At both
places a number of rioters We're killed or
wounded by the troops detailed TO maintain
order.
There were serious bread riots at Milan
to-day, resulting in the proclamation of
martial law. Thousands of workmen bar
ricaded the streets with overturned horse
cars and furniture from pillaged houses en-
deavoring to prevent the departure of the
reserves who have been called out for ac-
tive duty owing to the many recent dis
turbances. There were several encounters
between the military and the rioters Three
citizens were kllleQ ana several were
wounded. AS this dispatch was sent from
Milan the troops were in possession of the
main streets of the city.
Later dispatches from Milan report that
this mornings rioting was more serious at
the Palazio Saporiu. in the Corso Venezia,
and that several houses in the Porta Ven
izia were sacked. Barricades were con-
structed in the Via Torno and elsewhere.
A number of rioters were killed or wound
ed All workmen in the city struck. The
editors of the Republican journal, Italia
del Populaja, have been arrested. having
published in that paper an infiammatory
article. The riots had all the appearance
of a general rising. The troops destroyed
all the barricades. Several soldiers were
wounded severely. The report that num-
Der of rioters were killed or wounded is
confirmed. Strong reinforcements of troops
have been summoned. fs%
The news from Milan made a deep i'm
preston here. Rioting is reported tonight
from Florence, where the troops had to
charge and disperse the mob Disturbances
have occurred in Fermo, a city of central
Italy. in the Marches.

Cable Company sent out the following no.

South Bend Much Excited by Wild
Story.


The incorrect report published in an after
noon paper to the effect that Col. George NJ
Studebaker, of the Third Regiment, had
bene rejected by the medical examiner
caused for a time considerable speculation
on all Sides In the excitement of the mo-
ment a friend Of the colonels family tele-
graphed to his relatives in South Bend the
story which. at that time, was not doubted
BY the time the true story of the colonef $
triumphant passage of his examination was
known the whole town of South Bend was
apparently stirred up, and kilograms began
to pour in on Captain May asking for con-
firmation of the story.
One from Colonel Studebakers father was
answered at once, stating that the story OF
the rejection was totally without founda-
ton, and that the colonel was with his regi-
ment as usual. In fact 1t was lucky day
all around for the regimental officers; not
a one from majors upward was rejected.
1t was explained in this connection that the
physical requirements in the case of col
onel were much less than in the case of
private who would be more or less subject
to severe physical strains in the line of
duty. Only chronic complaints OF charac-
ter that would prevent man riding or SUB
jecting himself to great excitement would
bar him from service as regimental oflcer.

Brigade surgeon in Illinois.

Information was received at General Nc
KEGS headquarters yesterday to the effect
that precedent had been established in the
matter of mastering brigade surgeon by
the selection of one Thursday to act in that
capacity for the Illinois volunteers. This is
taken as an indication here that the regular
army regulations in regard to this officer
will not be drawn closely with any of the
volunteer organizations. While there has
been no direct intimetion that Col. Wright
Will be mustered in in this capacity there
are none of the United States officers here
who will state that it may not be done.

Loss of SiO, O,000--- Quick Judgment of Engineer
 Childs Prevented Greater Damage.

Specail Dispatch to The Age-Herald.
 Springville June 3.-The wreck on the Alabama Great Southern on yeSferday morning was a serious one though no deaths or personal injuries resulted. A train of 42 cars loaded with pig iron, lum- Der, cotton, and hard rosin, was being drawn by two powerful engines. Fourteen cars were entirely demolished. There was slight damage to the contents of the cars. The train was on time and running slowly when the wreck occurred. Engineer Childs by quick judgment and action saved the
 train from greater damage. The, loss to the road will be near $10,00O No cause has as yet been discovered.
 Engineer Childs saw the first car, the second one from the engine, when it be- gan jumping. At once he pulled wide the valve, throwing all steam on, thereby breaking loose the engine from the wreck, otherwise more damage would have been sustained.

Prof. A. c. Moore, prlnclpI Il of the B:r" rningham high school has rendered his res- ignation to the board Of education and will sever his connection with the l3irning- nam public schools. The resignation of Prof Moore will cause deep regret to his mary friends in this city, especially to the hundreds of students and graduates of the high school, all of whom hold him in the highest esteem.
 @Prof. Moore has been principal of the high school for the past eight years and it is largely to his ability ss T teacher and through his efficient work that this school has attained such wide reputation for thoroughness throughout tho state.
