INTO THE RIVER.
Six Persons Are Drowned at q
White River Ferry Near WASH
instOn, Ind.

Washington, Ind, Aug. 1s.-Six per-
sons were drowned in White river, near
here, Thursday morning. They were
Mrs. Albert Heimsel, her four children,
Able, aged 16; Andy, aged IA; Thomas,
aged ten, and Nellie, aged one, and Miss
Amy Dillon, aged is. All the bodies
have been recovered except that of Miss
Dillon. A party composed of Mr.. and
Mrs. Albert Heimsel, their four chill
dren, Miss Dillon, Mrs. Potts and two
children went to cross the river on fer
ryboat. The party was in a wagon.
The horses We're driven on the boat and
the front wheels reached it; just then
the stake holding the boat broke loose.
The swift current started it down the
stream. AS it started the entire load
of human freight was dumped into the
water, the wagon overturning. The
horses soon drowned. All were thrown
under the wagon, but in some miracu-
lous manner Mrs. Potts and her two
children reached the shore in safety.
Mr.. Heimsel made a heroic effort to save
his family, but all drowned. He mar
rowly escaped himself. Fully 1000
people were at the scene all day.

WORK OF A MOB.
Paris the Scene OF Serious Riots In
8 Which Many Persons Are In
jured and Churches Wrecked.

Paris, Aug. 81. Serious riots oc-
Cured here yesterday afternoon. The
trouble originated in an attack made
by anarchists on anti-Semites.
a thousand anarchists under Sc
bastian Faure assembled in the Place
de la Republique and resisted the po-
lice who attempted to disperse them.
The latter fought bravely, but were
finally foyerpowered.
"A police fcommissary and an in
spector attempted to arrest some RI
oters who We're carrying a red flag,
but they were trampled upon and
beaten with bludgeons. A number of
shots were fired by the mob. The
inspector was MORALLY injured by the
clubs, and the commissary was hit
by a bullet, receiving a serious wound.
Four other policemen were stabbed.
Notwithstanding their defeat, the po-
lice made a number of arrests, among
their prisoners being Faure.
Subsequent to the rioting in the Place
de la Republique the mob marched to
the Rue ST. Maur, where they wrecked
the churches of St. Maur and st. 10
seph. A similar disgraceful scene was
enacted at St. Nicholas church. The
mob tried to burn the churches, but
in this dastardly attempt they failed.
The prefecture of police gives the
following statistics of the riots: In
jured, $50; taken to hospitals, 800; po-
lice agents wounded, 81; arrests, $780,;
detained in custody, so.

the arrest of Gen. Juan Isidro Jiminez,
the aspirant to the presidency of San
to Domingo, who was captured on
board a steamer at Cienfuegos Friday,
just as the steamer was about leaving
that port, was not caused by orders
from Havana, but was effected through
the orders of Gen. James M Wilson,
governor of the department of Matan-
zas and Santa Clara. Immediately upon
