TANNER DEFENDS HIS COURSE


Madison, ILL.,, Oct 49, In an address
delivered here last night devoted large
ly to defense OF his course in the
mine riots at Virden, Gov. Tanner ut
tered this warning:
Ireiterate that will not tolerate this whole
sale importation Of foreigners into Illinois
and II hear that mob Is to be BROUGHT into
this state such as was taken into Virden, l
care not on what railroad 1t comes or for whom
Twill meet 1t at the state line and shoot 1t to
pieces with Calling guns
The governor reviewed at great
length the causes leading up TO the
rioting. He held the operators to be
at fault in their dealings with the
strikers, and then, revertlng to his
acts when the crisis came, said:
When the United States government found IL
necessary and deemed 1t Just to forbid the i'm.
portation Of foreign labor into this country,
felt that was fully justified In the course I
took at virden That trouble never would
have occurred II the negroes had not been
brought here to take the places Of white men.
The lmportations were representatives Of con-
victs and worthless characters generally and
do not propose to allow the operators to bring
these people here and took what considered
and still consider the proper means to pre-
vent 1t

Awful Pounding Of the Chicago Lake Front
BY Waves During the Gale Affected
the Tai Buildings.

Chicago, Oct. 2S-Chicago's lake
front is battered in spots from the In.
diana state line to Evanston and
beyond, as the result of the storm
which found a center here during the
last two days. While no lives have
been reported lost, the severity Of the
wind was the greatest since the gale
Of 1894, when the shore was strewn
with wrecks and when many sailors
persisted. The total damage is esti.
mated at SS.,50O The objects that
suffered most were the lake shore
promenades and walls, where huge
rocks and flags were battered down
and tossed about like chips BY the
waves. The Lincoln park board has
suffered most in this respect 1t will
require S35, 900 to replace Its wrecked
ways. An indication OF the fury Of
the storm is shown by the fact that
the official clock in the photographic
office in the Masonic temple was
stopped by the vibration Of the big
building. Lieut. Wilson says all clocks
on the upper floors of high office build
ings were similarly affected.

A MAN
LOST.

Lost No man understands the full
meaning Of that word like the man who
has been lost. He will tell you: ~ was
in the woods going ahead steadily when
! realized I'd missed the trail. With
cry Of Lost!' l broke into run heed
less Or ignorant Of the direction was
going"
The first impulse Of a man lost in the
woods is to run. The only safe thing is
to sit right down and reason out the
position.
Sometimes business man gets up at the
usual hour, breakfasts, kisses his wife and
starts for the Office. He has for some-
time seen signs that he was off the trail
Of health. To-day the signs multiply.
His brain is dull and dizzy, his heart
does not beat right, his breathing is diff
fcult, his limbs feel tremulous. He is
scared. He realizes that he's far away
from the trail Of health, and suddenly
like panther from tree, the thought
leaps on him, "You are lost man."
The first impulse is to run for help,
though the way Is honey-combed with
pitfalls Of quackery. But the rational
man faces the facts, sits down and
thinks over the position and its proba-
bilities.
That is the man we want to talk to.
Disease in almost any form is gen.
orally accompanied by the failure Of the
organs Of digestion and nutrition. Re-
establish these organs in healthy action,
the blood is at once enriched, the BODY
nourisled and the general health re-
stored. This result is invariably &C.
complisied by DR.. Pierce's Golden Med
ical Discovery. II is a stomach-strength-
ening, merchandising, matchmaking,
blood-purifying medicine. II has cured
thousands who thought their health
entirely lost. The Discovery" is not
stimulant and contains no alcohol or
whisky. Sold at all medicine stores.

War.hlua Wanted.

Havana, Oct 2S.-The American evac.
uation commission continues to advise
sending warships here, but can get no
reply from Washington. The reason
may be that Admiral Sampson has re.
fused to join Gen. Wade and Gen. But
Ter in recent requests. A joint session
Of the two commissions will be held
soon. Gen. Parade sent communica-
ton to Gen. Wade asking if the Amer.
leans would consent to another joint
session. Gen. Wade had previously
given notice that he and his associates
were tired Of meeting without re.
salt, and would not again confer with
the Spanish in formal session unless
there was some probability Of agree.
ment on the date of evacuation. A
frank talk Gen. Butler had with Gen.
Parade few days ago resulted in this
request for a joint session TO which
the Americans yesterday assented,
saying they would select date later
From an American commissioner 1t is
learned that this session will almost
certainly result in making arrange.
ments for evacuation. As predicted
in these dispatches few days ago,
Spain will agree to withdraw her
troops by January and relinquish SOW.
ereignty by December
In the meantime the work of prepar-
ing for the landing Of American troops
is progressing as rapidly as possible.
Col. Hecker predicts that the American
camps in Havana province will be
taken as models by the armies of the
world for years to come. None Of the
abuses Of last summer will be per.
mitted. The soldiers health will be
protected in every possible way.
Those quartered in the city must sure
ly suffer many losses from disease, but
the country camps will, it Is believed,
De kept free from fevers
Gen. Butler warned Secretary Alger
that some show OF strength must be
made soon or America would lose all
prestige with the Cubans. To this
warning there has been given emphasis
by the reported return 10 the hills Of
band Of insurgents who had been en-
camped near Sagua. II Is believed
this move was counseled by several
fiery leaders. Only 80 men are said to
have gone out, but others are likely to
follow any day. According to Gen.
Gomez, it would require 10000 men to
capture 80 insurgents fighting as guer.
rillas in the mountains. The insur.
gents in the neighborhood Of Havana
are quiet but far from satisfied.
