Chicago, June "a special to the
Chronicle from Arthur, Ills, says:
One boy drowned, a little girl fatally
injured beneath the hoofs of a horse,
two women and a man brought to
Deaths door by the shocks of the acct
dents, all incidents accompanying the
funeral of a man who met sudden
death, made Sunday a remarkable one
in this city.
The strange chain of disaster began
when the local Grand Army post buried
T. p. Wells, who was asphyXiated by
gas at hotel in Chicago last Wednes-
day night. While the ceremony was in
progress at the cemetery, news reached
Gus Baker that his 13-year-old son had
just been drowned while swimming.
The shock Frustrated Mr.. Baker, and
he had to be taken home in a carriage.
When the news was broken to his wife,
she went frantic and became uncon-
scious. Both are in a precarious con-
dition.
While the funeral procession was re-
turning from the cemetery, one of the
carriages ran over Mrs. William Sui
livan's little 2-year-old daughter,
mangling her in horrible condition.
Miss Ola Clark, a witness to the lat
ter accident, tainted and was carried
to the nearest house, where she lay for
four hours before recovering sufficiently

ONE GUN FOR EACH STATE.
How Captured Spanish Cannon Will
Be Disposed Of.

Washington, June 5.-The war de-
partment has solved the question as to
the disposition of the artillery cap
tured Prom Spain in Cuba and Porto
Rico by turning the whole matter over
to the governors of the states.
Very many applications have been
received at the department for the gift
or loan of these guns and the pres
sure has been renewed since the navy
department made known the fact that
all of its guns had been disposed of.
The law under which these guns can
be distributed provides that they may
go only to the soldiers monument as
sociations, Grand Army posts and mu-
nicipal corporations. One gun will be
allotted to each state and the governor
is asked to decide what disposition
shall be made of the gun for his state.

ms supporters moved the order of the
day approving the governments action.
An order OF the day was accepted by
the government stigmatizing the &C.
currence at Auteleuil and approving the
declarations of the government 1t was
carried without division after the first
part had been adopted by a vote of
BIB 90 81, and the second part had been
voted by 326 to 123
Prior to the vote being taken, II.
Denys Cochin, Conservative, asked that
the letter Of the government demand
ing the prosecution Of General Mercier
should be communicated to the house
Prosecution of Mercier.
The premier replied that it sad
dened to take the steps deemed neces-
sary, and explained that the trial OF
M de Roulede was not conducted in
seeming manner, inStancing the 1act
that NJ. de Roulede was permitted to
pronounce a long diatribe against Pres
ident Loubet in regard to the verdict
of the court of cessation, which showed
that some persons had incurred respon-
Sibility which must be explained.
First there was the case of Du Patty
du Clam, and then the communication
of the secret documents OF the court
martial having been attributed TO Cen
eral MERCER, and the government be-
Der to say if the prosecution should be
undertaken (Great excitement and ap-
plause from Leftists0
The vote was then taken. a heated
discussion afterwards occurred over the
prosecution of General MERCER, in the
midst of which NJ. Lasces suggested
the Impeachment of the premier and
violently criticized those who We're
prosecuting" General MERCER, which
the deputy declared was a maneuvre
made to influence the courtmartial at
Rennes.
Finally the chamber voted to adjourn
the appointment of the commission of
inquiry into the conduct of General
MERCER until after the courtmartial at
Rennes.
The Dreyfus Affair.
The Leftists made demands that the
verdict of the court of cessation be
placarded everywhere in France, and
NJ Jourde, socialist, rose and admitted
he had been mistaken about the Drey-
fus affair and had PREPARATION to make.
He added that he was surprised that
N. Cavaignaic had not preceded him to
he tribune, which caused the latter to
say:
Il have already made reparation by
discovering and making known the err
ror committed" NJ. Brisson said:
"The cabinet 1 presided over was
unfortunate enough to cause to be pla-
carded a speech containing misstate-
ments. 1 ask the chamber to vote the
placarding of the verdict Of the court
of CESSATION
The premier did not oppose the pla-
carding of the verdict. which was
adopted by a vote of 81 to 212.
The house then adjourned.
The socialist and radical deputies in
the Hobbies of the chamber eagerly dis
cussed the measures adopted by the
cabinet and criticized them as made
quate. They demand the closing of all
royalist clubs. The division with refer
ence to General MERCER caused great
surprise.
The Republican deputies of all shades
of opinion have sent President Loubet
an address assuring him of their re-
spectful esteem and of their devotion
TO republican institutions.

UNION PACIFIC PLANS.
Big Increase In Equipment Causes
Much Speculation.

The immense amount of equipment
recently ordered by the Union Pacific,
together with the activity of the OF
ficers of that road, have set railroad
men to guessing concerning the 1usure
intentions of the company. The com
pany has just received 200 heavy bal
last cars. 1000 freight cars and 500 nat
cars, and an order has been given Tor
forty-eight new locomotives of the lat
est type Some claim that this equip
ment is not for the present needs OF the
company, but that it is to be used on
extensions to the line now in contem-
plation; others say that the increase IN
business iustifies the large order. Inc
San Francisco Examiner states that the
company will soon build across Nevada
from the terminus of the Utah q "a
cific TO Manuel in California, where the
extension will be met by a twenty-five
mile connection of the Santa Fe & Pa
cific. This branch will be gobbled up,
says the Examiner, and the Union Pa
cific will have short line TO California
points.
The Vanderbilts have reputation
for doing what they set out 10 do, and
railroad men all over the country are
now watching the Union Pacific with
great deal of interest.
