Several Lives Lost as the Result OF

ST. Louis, Mo-, Oct. ga special
to the Republic from Houston, Tex,
says: The electric and wind storm
which swept over Texas last night was
very severe in South Texas. Damage
to cotton is enormous. At Deer Park,
20 miles from Houston, the residence
of g. F. Adams was demolished.
Adams, his wife and baby sustained
minor injuries, while A. j. Cook was
crushed to death.
At Pasadena, the residence of John
Stout was turned over and completely
wrecked. Six occupants were injured.
The wind was so high at Missouri
City, 80 miles west of Houston, that it

Since Letter failed the outsider has
not beer interested in Chicago prices.
The disastrous outcome to the man
with SO many millions was terrifying
lesson to the small bull. Explanations
did not count Whether Letter made
egregious errors or not was of little
consequence. The defeat, after a years
campaign, of the bull leader who for
so long seemed the greatest who had
ever arisen, took the heart from every
one who had believed in his cause. 1t
was only last June that the disaster
took place; about four months ago. 1t
seems long interval, but it is really
short one, and it would be remarkable
If it were not still in everyone's mind.
What new bull leader would now invite
the comparisons which would inevitably
be made; what banking concern would
hazard the criticism which would fol-
low any favors toward buying cam
paign in grain9 Have, the losses of last
summers collapse been forgotten yeti
There must be good deal imaginative
about any bull deal. Not one advance
in twenty is a mere matter of consump-
tive demand or of actual scarcity.
There must be great deal of theory
with advancing prices; people must
forget prudence, become venturesome,
permit more or less exhilirstion,
Would it not be like holding picnic
at the close OF funeral to permit much
bull spirit within four months of the
Letter failure?
The present movement Of wheat to
market is the heaviest ever known-11,-
900, 900 bushels received at primary
points last week. There was never any
such total as that in six days before.
Is not the speoulator doing pretty we'll
in taking care of that property and in
also maintaining pricesP Is not the fact
that such a volume of grain is financed
and the price sustained evidence that
the volume Of speculation Is larger than
the very narrow fluctuations would
indicate?

A CHINESE EXECUTION.
The Event Turned Into HideOus
Festival.

Festival.
Vancouver, B. c., Oct. 22.-Accord-
ing to the latest mail advces from
China eight subordinate leaders of the
Kwangski rebellion have been beheaded
at WI Chow. They were carried in
baskets through the principal streets
as a warning spectacle, amidst the
laughter and jeers of men, women and
children.
Ten thousand people witnessed the
decapitation, and made it gala day.
Little children copied their parents,
who joked the dying rebels a second
before the ak fell. When all was over
the children played among the head
less, bleeding corpses and made sport
with the black disfgured heads.
Mandarins and headsmen improvised
sort of Maypole, and the heads of the
rebels were placed OH top in tiers, the
children dancing around them. The
governor advised the mandarins to
make the beheading as festive as possi-
BILE, so as to inspire disgust for the
rebels in the hearts of the people. A
banquet was afterward spread.
The Japan Mail says petition has
been sent to the government by foreign
consuls requesting that beheading be
discontinued

George w. Clark Paid the Death PEN

San Quentin, Cal, Oct. 24.-George
W. Clark, the st. Helena fratricide,
died coolly on the gallows today.
The crime for which Clark was exc
cuted was the murder of his brother
at st. Helena, Napa county. He lay
in wait for his victim and shot him
dead. after taking deliberate aim. A
few days before the tragedy, he endeav-
ored to kill his brother by poisoning
his coffee.
The crime was the outgrowth of an
intimacy that had existed for g years
before the murder between Clark and
his brothers. wife. Two days after the
killing Clark made full confession.
He then changed his mind and fought
hard in the courts to set aside the con-
fession. He was convicted and ap-
pealed to the supreme court. The de-
cision of the lower court was sustained
and Clark was sentenced by Judge Ham
to be hanged today. Recently he made
a statement exonerating his brothers.

Preparations for War Continue in
France-Naval Reserves in Readiness.
Paris, Oct. 22.-The alleged war pre-
parations of France are the absorbing
topic of discussion here. According to
French papers there were important
naval experiments at Toulon last even
ing. A fotilla of torpedo-boats was
detailed to make an endeavor to force
the entrance of the harbor and the
whole garrison was called to arms and
forts and batteries were manned ready
for instant action. The result of the
experiments has not been made public.
Vice-Admiral Barrea presided yes
terday at secret council of war at
Brest, i'll which the chiefs of the mari
time forces took part. Confidential
orders were subsequently issued to the
garrison.
Aurore asserts that five vessels of
the naval reserves around Brest have
been ordered to hold themselves in
readiness for active service.
M. Del Case, minister of foreign
affairs, has ordered that the report of
Major MaIchand, as to the situation at
Fashoda, which is expected at Cairo
tonight, be telegraphed textually. Ow-
ing to its probable length it is expected
that at least 48 hours will be required
to reduce it 70 the French cipher code
at Cairo and to translate it in Paris.

AN ABSURD REPORT.
Minister WI Says Ii and the Empress
Were Not Married.


Chicago, Oct. 24.-Wu Tingfang,
Chinese minister to the United States,
before his departure for Washington
said that the report of marriage be-
tween Lii Hung Chang and the dowager
empress was absurd. The steamer
which arrived at Vancouver on We'd
nesday brought papers from Hong
Kong and Yokohama, publishing the
statement that the dowager empress
had become the wife of Ii Hung Chang.
"This is the most absurd of all ru-
mors." said WI Tingfang. 1T is i'm
possible. No reliance is to be placed
in kilograms from southern cities about
what goes on in Peking. 1t is not
there like it is here. Your president
goes about shaking hands with the peo-
pie. We have different ways. This
news could not come from Peking. 1t
was made at Hong Kong. The report
is untrue"

Deafness Cannot be cured

by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deafness,
and that is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an inf1amed con-
dition OF the mucous lining of the Eus-
tachian Tube. When this tube is in
famed you have rumbling sound or
imperfect hearing, and when it is en-
tirely closed, Deafness is the result, and
unless the Inflammation can be taken
out and this tube restored to its normal
condition, hearing will be destroyed for
ever; nine cases out of ten are caused
by catarrh, which is nothing but an in
famed condition of the mucous sur
faces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for

Luzon as the City of Manila, and all
the Philippines if he takes Luzou."
This is correct. But as we already
have Manila in our hands and are
committed to its retention, and as
the entire Island of Luzon is virtually
in our possession and will not be
given up, the case looks simple. All
the Philippines which is worth any
thing IS now practically American
territory, and neither the anti expan-
sionists nor Spain ought to grumble
if we take the rest of the islands in
order to relieve Spain of her embar-
rassment. The work of the peace
commissioner, so far as regards the
Philippine matter, is likely to be
light.

SICK OR WELL, A RUSH
NIGHT AND DAY.
The Packers at the Battle of Santiago de
Cuba Were sll RerOes-Their Heroic
Efforts in Getting Ammunition and
RatIons to the Front Saved the Day.

P. E. Butler, of pack-train No. 3,
writing from Sandiago, De Cuba, on
July 23d, says: ''We all had diarrhoea
in more or less violent form, and when
we landed we had no time to see
doctor, for it was case of rush and rush
night and day to keep the troops sup
piled with ammunition and rations, but
thanks to Chamber in's Collie, Cholera
and Diarrhoea Remedy, we were able to
keep at work and keep our health in
fact, I sincerely believe that at one
critical time this medicine was the in
direct saviour of our army, for if the
packers had been unable to work there
would have been no way of getting sup
plies to the front. There were no roads
that a wagon train could uee. My COM
rad and myself had the good fortune to
lay in supply of this medicine for oul
pack-train before we left Tampa, and L
know in four cases it absolutely saved
life."

BLsMARCK'S INGENUITY.

A writer in the Times says that
Bismarck, in his younger days at
least, did not scorn 20 attain his ends
by devices that owed more to-well,
call it ingenuity, than to the dignifed
exercise of resistless strength. For
instance, while he was Prussia's rep
resentative in the Federal Diet at
Frankfurt be was irritated by the
discovery that some of the very
pompous and equally conscience less
diplomatists in the Bundestag were
in the habit of lntercepting and read
ing his reports to the king of Prussia.
Instead of denouncing this custom
openly and thereby causing scenes
and scandals, as he would have done
without hesitation in the days of his
greatest power, the prince held his
peace, ard set his wits to work on the
problem OF getting the better of his
antagonists. An old story now re-
Vived tells how he met the difficulty.
One day when he had a most import
ant letter which he was absolutely
Obliged to confde to the post he put
the document in his pocket, took one
of his colleagues with him for walk,
and led into back street of the city.
There he selected a small grocer's
shop, opened the door, entered and
asked for soap. After making his
purchase he put the parcel IN his
pocket, asking: Have you any letter
covers?" Some envelopes OF the
commonest kind were brought to
him. He pulled out his documen
and prepared it for the post, where
upon he begged the man to give him
pen and ink. Not having taken off
his gloves, the prince pretended that
he could not write properly, and
asked the shopman to address the
letter, which he did. Putting the
letter first to his nose and then into
his pocket, Bismarck remarked to his
friend: "Now, we'll see if they will
sniff my report under this address
and under this perfume, composed OF
soap, herring, tallow and cheese"
