A CRISIS IMPENDING
In the italian Parliament Over a
Royal Decree.

Rome, June 28.-Great interest is be-
ing taken in today's session of the
chamber of deputies. There are appre-
tensions that it may lead to a minis
terial crisis over the royal decree en-
towering the government to prohibit
public meetings, and to punish strikers
and those who infringe the press laws.
The extreme leftists are resolved to
resort to every means to postpone
vote approving the measure, so that
they may subsequently be able to con-
test it's legality in the courts on the
ground of it's being unconstitutional as
well as not sactioned by parliament.
The debate on the navy estimates
ought to have been resumed today, but
Immediately after the sitting was open
ed, Signor Bonacir, minister of justice
moved it's suspension on the ground
that the chamber should first pro-
nounce an opinion on the royal decree.

Which Specifies 4O3 Articles as Un-
lawfully Detained.

Margaret Ball has filed a replevin
suit in the district court against Nancy
j. McGrath, in which she names 403
articles which she wishes to replevin.

property of so little value was ever
mixed up in law suit in Shawnee coun-
ty. The list starts off with Il dresser
with mirror, worth So and is followed
by chairs and other furniture. Among
the articles enumerated are wash tub,
L set of quilt frames, night gowns, 1
hoe, 1 lawn sprinkler, various kitchen
utensils, hammock, some harness, a
lot of cord wood, So worth of lumber,
some hay, lard can containing honey,
lumber wagon, 1 potato maSher, 125
bushels Of corn, some dishes, a sack of
flour, some bedding, a sugar bucket full
of sugar, SO cans of fruit, 1 shotgun, l
revolver, and lot of crockery. The
aggregate value of the entire lot is
$685.
The plaintiff claims to own the pro-
perty, but she says it is in the possess
sion of the defendant, and she asks that
the court to turn it over to her.

Goodman at Gray Gables Has Mar
row Escape From Bolt of
Lightning.

Buzzard's Bay, Mass, June 2S.-Dur-
ing a tempest yesterday afternoon light
ming struck ex-President Cleveland's
barn at Gray Gables and the coachman
who was in the building, had a very
narrow escape from being killed The

were not allayed until they learned that
the coachman was not seriously injured
and the storm passed. Two summer cot
tages near by were also struck by light
ming, but neither was much damaged.

came upon the negroes Unexpectedly
Ed Ellis, the ring leader, armed with
q Winchester and a Colts revolver, fell

work There was another volley and

selves to prevent his capture Both

arrival of a sherif's posse prevented an
outbreak. The negro miners held

keep rifles and ammunition on hand at
all times. They gathered in Glasgow
Hollow, although with what intention
Is not known.
Influential citizens say that the ring
leaders are out of the way and they
hope to manage the other negroes
Shortly after the riot, Sheriff O'Brien
left here with a hundred armed men,
He now has the situation in hand for
the time being. although late reports
say the situation is extremely critical
and that the negroes are talking of
avenging the death of their leaders.
