CAPTURED SPANISH CANNON.
Gov. stone Ailots PennsyIyanfa's
share TO Five Cities

The War Department recently allotted
five captured Spanish cannon to the state
Of Pennsylvania and placed the distribution
in the hands of Gov Stone. These guns
were to go to municipal corporations or
Grand Army posts. On account of the as
sociation attached to the cannon and the
public interest in them he has decided to
grant the request of five cities. The govern
or has decided TO give one each TO Philadel-
phia, Allegheny, Wilkesbarre, Harrisburg
and Bradford. These guns are all six-inch
smooth-bore bronze, seventy-four inches
long and weigh 1900 pounds They are en-
graved and have the Spanish coat of arms
and Spanish inscriptions. All the expenses
of transporting the cannon from the Brook
lyn navy yard must be borne by the cities

DEMOCRATS WILL BOLT GoEBEL.
Republican Majority of 10000 Pre-.
dictcd I'm Louisville.

Advices from Kentucky indicate that a
genera! bolt from William Goebel, the DEM
oeratic nominee for governor. is imminent.
A special dispatch from Lexington printed
in today's Baltimore Sun says:
Leading newspapers which have been
loyal TO the democracy and its nominees
are today denouncing the nomination Of
Goebel as unfair, and advising democrats
TO refuse to support his candidacy.
1t is said that few of the friends of Gen.
p. Wat Hardin, the leading candidate In the
convention before Goebel made his trade
with Stone, will support the nominee.
Owen county, hitherto democratic by
1000. will. II is predicted by leading men
give republican majority. Democratic
politicians Of that city declare that Louis
vile will give the republicans 10000 MA

Pension Frauds,

Exploits of Daring InpOster-other
Pension Frauds.
John W. Hayes, colored, who has been
operating in Arkansas, Kentucky and Ten
nessee, representing himself to be a special
examiner of the pension bureau, and who
was incarcerated In the Jail at Carthage,
Tenn. escaped from the Jail Sunday night
April 16. by removing a large stone weigh
ing nearly a quarter of ton from under
the caves of the building. after having a
serious fight with fellow prisoner, during
which the back of his neck was cut with a
knife almost from ear to ear.
1t is alleged that this man not only repre-
Sented himself to be special examiner. but
also claimed to be an agent of the land
office and under such false representation
obtained considerable money.
After breaking Jail at Carthage he hid for
a few weeks and then went to Nashville
at which place he was under Indictment
but was unknown, and learning that Special
Examiner Harris of the pension bureau
who had caused his arrest had returned to
Washington, ard feeling satisfied that for
that reason there was no risk of his being
identified, he went into the district attor-
neyS office and in the absence of that Off
cial consulted his clerk TO the penalty
provided by law for the offense for which
he Is indicted, representing himself to be a
cousin of the culprit. Thence he made his
way into Shelby county. Alabama locating
at Helena under the alias of DIR. r. c. VIII

SION SO well tIlat ne succeeded In being aD-
pointed the physician of a mine located
near that town. He says that he never
prescribed anything that would kill and for
this reason seems to have done very well in
his new profession. He was located at
Helena, arrested and lodged in jail at Biz
mingham for the action of the federal au-
thorities at Nashville.
Matilda Stevens, alias Briggs; Elgin Coll
yer and Grace L. Davis of New York CITY
were arrested. charged with having de-
frauded the government in connection with
the pension claim of Matilda Briggs, who
claims to be. but is not, the widow of a
soldier
Sarah E. Davis of Greenpoint, N V, was
also arrested, charged with having COM
mitted perjury in connection with said
claim.
Robert Gilmore of Nashville, Tenn. was
arrested at that place, charged with having
committed perjury in connection with the
pension claim of Albert Field. This man
is an associate of Messrs. Kellogg Davis.

Rough for the Montgomery.

The cruiser Montgomery appears to have
had tempestuous voyage outside Monte
vfdeo, where she had recently put in, as
the Navy Department has received a report
that her sea cutter was partly smashed
and the machinery deranged. probably as
the result of heavy seas. The damage Is
inconsiderable, however, and IL is estimated
that 800 for the cutter and 500 for the
machinery viii restore everything and that
the repairs viii not cause any delay In the
vessels movements.

Told.

Told.
dispatch from Chicago last night saws
Dean c Worcester. member of the Philip-
pine commission, today cabled the Times
Herald denying reports that Filipino pris-
oner* were shot by order of American Of
hoers. This was in response to a cable in
quiry sent by IL. H. Kohlsaat. as follows:
Worcester Manila:
Charles Bremen. Minneapolis Kan.
writes home: Company I had four prison
ers and didn't know what to do with them
They asked Capt. Bishop what to do. He
said You know orders" And four ma
uves fell dead Cable the truth.
"NOHLSAAT."
Commissioner Worcester's answer fol-
lows:
MANILA. June -. 1897.
Editor the Times Herald, Chicago. III.
The original statement OF Bremen H. un-
true. Brenner's charge was promptly in
Ntstgated by the military authorities here.
NO facts Nc:e ascertained to support the
charge at the time OF first inquiry, but th,.
investigation has been renewed and IS he
ing prosecuted vigorously and extensively.
This investigation has not Vet been com
pleted. Brenners charge has some SEM
blance of truth. for the reason that II is
now believed that two prisoners were shot
in the heat of battle for refusing to pass
10 the rear when ordered to do so. This
matter is being probed to the bottom. II
is an isolated case. The inha bitants Of ih.
towns recently captured had been maltreat-
ed. robbed and left destitute by the insur-
gents The natives rejoice at the arrival Of
the American troops, who neither burn
their homes nor loot their property and
who feed the hungry.
The inhabitants are resuming their or
binary occupations and are ready to CO.
operate with us. The wounded insurgents
are brought to Manila, where they receive
the same care and attention as our own
wounded. WORCESTER

CHINESE COLONY EXCITED.
An Appeal in Behalf of the DepOsed
Emperor Kwang Hsu, and For
the Dethroning of An.

San Francisco, Oct. 4.-The Chinese
colony in this city is considerably ex-
cited over the fact that large placards
containing revolutionary proclama-
ton have been posted in Chinatown.
The document is an appeal in behalf
Of the Emperor Kwang Hsu, and a
call for aid to dethrone the dowager
empress. 1t is signed by Kwang Yu
Wei, one of the ex-emperor's confiden-
tial advisers and closest friends. He
is at present in the revolutionary head
quarters in Victoria, b. c. When the
emperor was dethroned by the dow
ager princess, Wei's four associates
were beheaded by her order, but he
managed to escape in disguise from
the empire, Wei asks Chinese who ia
vor the revolutionary movement to
communicate with himself or hi
agents, whose names are given.

SECOND DAY.
The Attending Throngs swelled tho Dollar
Dinner.

Dallas, Tex, Oct. 3.-Incoming
trains brought large delegations to
swell the throngs of democrats from
the west and southwest who have come
to attend the carnival. Democratic
doctrine was expounded from half a
dozen platforms, mornings, afternoon
and evening, Monday, but many of the
prominent party men who are here
from all parts of the country are yet
to be heard. The crowds are larger
and interest is heightened by the pro-
grammes of oratory prepared for their
entertainment. The state fair, usually
the event of the year in this section,
has been almost lost sight of in the
political demonstrations which were
arranged as an adjunct to the agricul-
tural exhibits. Prize. butter and blue
ribbon poultry have proven tame top

THE AMERICAS CUP RACES.
American Methods of BulIetin-
Ing Used-An Innovation.

London, Oct. 4.-While most of the
prominent yachtsmen are out of Lon.
don, the interest in the races for ths
Americans cup is manifest in many
quarters. The afternoon papers give
the event as much prominence as the
Transvaal situation, some of them
adopting American newspaper meth
DDS, and bulletining the position of the
yachts. This is an absolute innova-
ton in British journalism.
The generous attitude of the New
York Yacht club has done great
work in wiping out the last traces of
ill-feeling.
