aunt of their mother, Mrs. Kingsland, at
Fifth avenue and Twentieth street. Mrs
Aspinwall went to live at No. 115 East
Twenty-fifth street. She had a place at
Cedarhurst, but it was there that she had
spent her honeymoon. She never visited
1t after her separation.
There was no luck in life for Lloyd AS
pinwall after this. He went into Wall
street, but was unsuccessful. Not entirely
destitute, he managed to get along, but
dropped steadily out of sight of the
crowd that had admired him when he
was wealthy and willing to spend his
wealth. He became rather careless about
himself. and lived in boarding houses.
The Christmas holidays of 1896 were
gloomy and cold. Mrs. Lloyd AspinwaH
was much about the shops She caught
cold, and on Jan. 6, 1897, she died. Her
husband did not know Of it until he saw
the notices in the newspapers. Just eight
days after Beatrice, the eight-year-old
daught of Lloyd AspinWall, died = wife
and child gone in week.
After the lapse Of little more than
month Lloyd AspinWall, being pushed for
debts aggregattng about $1,000, made an
assignment for the benefit of his credi-
tors. He was not heard of for a few
months, and then appeared in a police
court as complainant against the land
lady of r boarding house at No. IS West
Twenty-fifth street, near which his wife
had resided.
He had lived in the boarding house, and
accused the landlady of holding papers
and letters belonging to him. Among the
letters were ninety from Lillian Russell
The landlady was not punished.
Then Lloyd Aspinwall was long eclipsed
to the public gaze. For two months past
he has been sinking at the Metropolitan
hotel

SAN FRANCISCO, July 1s.-Adyices rex
ceived by the transport Newport, dated
Manila, June IL, are as follows
The volunteers are greatly debilitated
in consequence of their hard campaigns

weather. Since the middle of May no
volunteer regiment has had sick list
of less than 20 per cent. Most of them
at the present date have % per cent Ill,
and few regiments have less than ONE
third OF their number on duty
The Nebraska regiment has suffered
the worst, 1t came in from San F'ernan-
do few days ago, with less than 200
men in the ranks. Some of It's companies
have only two sets of fours. The South
Dakota followed yesterday with 275 men
on duty. The Montana and Kansas regi-
ments, at San Fernando, have not more
than 2S0 men available each. The morn

''Twenty-four OF ths Nebraska officers

of the Kansas regiment is second to that

KEEP ALL IN SIGHT.
Novel Utterance OF a Bishop of the
Methodist Church.


Methodist Church.
CINCINNATI, o., July 13.-Bishop ].
M. Thoburn, of the Methodist Episcopal
church, who has spent forty years as a
missionary, mostly in India, is here with
his family, some of whom are in ILL
health. The bishop spent some time In
Manila in March last, and was an OBJ
server of events. He says there is no
doubt that the outbreak between the
Americans and Filipinos was intended by
Filipino leaders to include a general
massacre in the city of Manila.
Viewing the situation in the far East
from the standpoint OF a missionary of
forty years in that part of the world, the
bishop is impressed with the fact that it
is the duty of the United States forced
upon 1t by the circumstances of the Span
tsh war, to hold the Philippines, and to
preserve order and extend civilized gov
ernment in that vast region. Moreover,
in the interest of morality and Christian
ity, he hopes for the dissolution of the
Chinese empire, which he characterizes as
the most helpless government on the
earth. In that event Russia, he believes,
should have portion, giving it an avail
able Pacific port. England, though fav-
oring the integrity of the Chinese en-
pre- already has In mind the Valley of
the Yang Use Kiang as it's share The
United States, in Bishop Thoburn's view.
should have it's portion of the coast op-
posite the Philippines, Such division
OF China would bring untold blessings to
the people of that empire, and would ad-
vance the civilization of the whole world.
The bishop declines to discuss the sub
ject from the standpoint of American pol
itics, but he says he cannot imagine why
the United States should shrink from
giving up her exclusive policy, and hesi-
tate to take her place among the nations
when the duty is so rnanifestly thrust
upon her. If China falls to pieces, as
nearly all well informed people believe
she will, it woud be unwise, if not NOR
ally wrong, to concede that the European
nations have right to settle the destiny
of that great empire without any refer
ence to America. The United States, he
thinks, must inevitably. become the dom
mating naval power of the Pacific ocean,
and, if such future is In store for her,
she certainly ought, he believes, to hold
an important section of the coast line of
Eastern Asia.

general. They wanted Judge Pratt on
the ticket, and finally nominated him by
an overwhelming majority. Judge Pratt
was the favorite of the colored delegates
for governor
w. S. Taylor is 46 years of age. He was
a farmer boy and taught school before he
became county clerk, in 1882 While in
that office he studied law and afterward
was elected judge. He has been a mem
Der of the Republican state committee
since 1885, and was a delegate to the ma
tional Republican convention in Chicago
in 1888. He was elected attorney general
four years ago, when William o. Brad
ley was elected governor. The latter did
not attend the convention here this week.
NEGROES WILL BOLT.
Some of the negroes of Lexington are
dissatisfied with the nomination of Tay-
lor for governor, and an effort will be
made by them to defeat him. A number
of prominent negroes of this city held a
mass meeting this afternoon with sey-
eral members of the Hambrick deIega
ton, of Louisville, and decided to pIace
negro ticket in the field this fall. A
conference will be held in Louisville next
Friday afternoon and a ticket nominated
DR.. E. E. Underwood, of Frankfort. w
ii. Steward, of Louisville, and Editor r
Z. y. benjamin, of this city, are at the
head of the movement, and one of the
three will receive the nomination for gov
ernor. They have no idea of winning
but they claim that they will cause Tay-
lor to lose the colored vote.

Gen. Otis Asks for Twenty-Five
Hundred Horses.

WASHINGTON, July 13.-A dispatch
has been received from Gen. Otis request
ing that there be sent to the Philippines
$500 horses in order that a brigade Of
cavalry may be organized for use at the
end of the rainy season. Gen. Otis has
tried the horses of Manila and nearby
countries, but none of them seem to be
available for cavalry. It is the intention
of Secretary Alger to have the mounts
carefully selected. and he thinks that
animals from the Southern states, not
too heavy but tough and wiry, will be
the best.
