THE TRIAL OF HOWARD.
The second of the GOebeI Murder
Trials I'm Progress Mt Frank
fort, Ky.

Frankfort, KY, Sept. 15.-The How
ard trial was resumed. Common
wealth's Attorney Franklin being ill,
Judge Williams was appointed prose-
cutor.
Engineer Woodson concluded his
testimony. DIR. w. f. Philips, of
Manchester, testified to a conversa-
ton he had with Howard regarding
the assassination of Goebel.
Lieut.. John Ricketts, testified that
after the shooting he saw a man
jump the rear fence near the execu-
tive building. The man, he thought,
had a gray mustache and he did not
believe Howard was the man.
Tailor Lackey, of Madison county,
said Howard called on him at Rich
mond and told him he had been at
Frankfort and had gone home, but
received message TO return. Howard
said:
"You may rest assured will never
go to the pen for the murder of
George Baker"
The theory of the prosecution is
that immunity from prosecution for
the Baker murder was promised How
ard as a reward for killing Geobel.
Lieut.. Ricketts, also incriminated
Youtsey again, the same as in the
Powers trial.
w. d. Weaver testified that when
Howard returned from Frankfort to
London to appear for trial for the
murder of George Baker, Judge j. H.
Tinsley met him and shook hands
with Howard saying:
Jim, heard, through my son.
what you did at Frankfort and i
want to congratulate YOU
Howard, he says, nodded and
smiled.

Stricken While Bapti1ing.

Rev. j. w. Pullen, while baptizing
converts in creek near Cave Springs,
Ca, was stricken with paralysis. Rev.
Pullen is well-known Baptist divine,
and has been conducting a spirited
revival meeting. He has been noted
for the number of converts that he
has baptized. The circumstances sur
rounding the attack were dramatic in
the extreme. lie had just lowered a
very pretty young girl under the wa
ter and was pronouncing the word of
service when, with the swiftness of
lightning, he fell back into the water
helpless. His face pale and limbs mo-
tionless, he was hastily rescued and
the crowd dispersed in a panic.

TIE CHINESE SITUATION.
State Department Notified of the
Appointment of YungL u
as an Envoy.
RUSSIA IS NOT EXPOSING HER HAND.
Same Course, and Both are Thus
Free to shape Their Actions AZ
shall be Suggested by Future
Developments.

Washington, Sept. 15.-Minister WI
was again an early caller at the state
department, and spent nearly an hour
in conference with Acting Secretary
Adee. He notified Mr.. Adee, verbal
ly, of the appointment of Yung Lu
as an envoy, but had no further infor-
nation to communicate. He was
rather in search of news himself, and
was much interested in a short dis
patch from Minister Conger, describ-
ing the conditions in Pekin. The
state department, while declining to
make this message public, authorizes
the statement that the dispatch indi-
Gated that no change had taken place
in political conditions in Peltin.
Russia Not Exposing Her Hand.
Russia has not yet officially noti-
fed our government of any change
in its programme as to the evacuation
of Peltin. In fact, nothing has been
heard from Russia on this point since
the United States reply was returned,
save one short note, explanatory of
some obscure points in the first Rus
sian communication. 1t is probable
that this absence of further commu-
nication on this subject is to be ex-
planned by the fact that the Russian
government does not confess to any
change in it's original programme. 1t
merely gives a different interpreta-
ton to the details of that programme
for the understanding that obtained
abroad.
Our Government Doing Likewise.
The United States government IL
following precisely the same course
as to it's own note and reply, so that
the effect of these diplomatic actions
is to leave the military commanders
of both the United States and Russia
at Pekin practically free to determine
for themselves the propriety of evac-
uation, according to the condition OF
the agreement.
Omcials Puzzled.
Since the first manifestation months
ago of a disposition on the part of
the naval commanders of some of the
powers at Taku to interfere with the
movements of Ii Hung Chang, our
has been advised of no
further opposition to his projected
trip to Pekin. Consequently, officials
here are puzzled by certain press dis
patches indicating that he may be
detained through international jeal-
ousies at the mouth of the Yang Use.
If this report should prove true, it
would only go to confirm the fears
of the administration as to the pos
sibility of an international conflict at
almost any moment.

FRESH MEANCE AT GALVESTON.
PestiIence Feared ON Account of I'M
sanitary Conditions.

Pestilence Feared ON Account of I'M
sanitary Conditions.
Dallas, Tex, Sept. ia special
from Galveston says:
There is no concealment to be made
of the fact that a pestilence is feared.
Efforts of the local and military au-
thorities are directed now to minimiz-
ing this new danger. They are send
ing the women and children to the in
terror as fast as possible. All the able
bodied men must remain for time at
least. There is work for thousands of
them, and work that must be done.
One of the Largest Duties.
The disposition of bodies continues
TO be one of the largest duties, and
besides this, there are yet in the city
and on the island thousands of car
casses which need attention. The
stagnant water in the streets, filed
with all manner of decomposing mat
ter, is a threat against the living
which makes man tremble. In say
ing that ten thousand barrels of lime
can be used to good advantage, no ex-
aggeration is made.
Who Will Render the servicef
The community that will donate q
trainload of lime at once and get it
there will render a greater service
than by giving twice the value in
money. Send an abundance of lime
and other disinfectants and help re-
move danger far more imminent
than starvation.

Must Have Assistance.

"The people need and must have
assistance. Need money to rebuild
their homes and buy stock and imple-
ments. They need food-flour, ba-
con, corn. They must have seeds for
their gardens so as to be able to do
something for themselves very soon.
Clothing is badly needed. Hundreds
of women and children are without a
change and are already suffering.
Some better idea may be had of the
distress when it is known that box
cars are being improvised as houses
and hay as bedding. Only IA houses
in the town of Alvin are standing on
their foundations and they are badly
damaged.
Suffering and Starvation Imminent.
"The necessities of the people must
be met or great suffering and starva-
ton will follow.
at is believed that a generous pub
lie will quickly respond when they
know the dire distress among this
people. While the great sympathetic
heart of this grand nation is respond
ing so generously for the stricken
city of Galveston, it should be re-
membered, also, that the smaller
towns-where the same conditions of
total wreck exists, though miracu-
lousy with smaller loss of life-need
immediate help from liberal peo-
pie"
The Country strewn with COrpses.
A bulletin from Hitchcock says:
Country districts are strewn with
corpses. The prairies around Hitch
cock are dotted with the bodies of
the dead. Scores are unburied, as the
bodies are too badly decomposed to
handle, and the water too deep to
admit of burial. A pestilence is
feared from the decomposing animal
matter lying everywhere. Disinfect-
ing material is badly needed.
