Deaths.
Death OF Frank McGilI.

Mr.. Fran MetIill, son of the late
Daniel NcCill, whose sad death was
recorded about two weeks ago, died
1T his home, on North Qneen street
shortly before noon. on last Saturda,
of consumption, in his 3Ist year.
Like his honored father, who in bis
early life was sailor, Frank a
passion for the sea ard went into the
United States navy where as fisI
ass machinist, he served with III
gallant Capt McCalls, on the Mar
blehead" one OF the vessels Of A.
miral Schley's feet. Young McGi,I
participated in all the brilliant
achievements in the destruction OF
Ceyera's fleet, and proved bn-
self a hero. In the discharge q.
bis duties, he was severely woundtc q
at the battle of Santiago. and -
sent to hospital at Chelsea "a Va
sachus.etts. After his recovery ht
worked ia the navy yard at Wishing
ton where he remained until la
July, when he came home in failiny
health. Everything possible was son
to eradicate the seeds of his fell dis.
ease, but to no avail. His death. II l.
thought, was FASTENED by the terri
BILE shock occasioned by his fathers
tragic end, and his efforts to reach the
hospital while he was yet alive.
His widowed mother, two young
sons. Robert aged four. and Frank
two years, three brothers and three
sisters are left to NOUN his untim--
y end.
His funeral took place at 9 .. m.

HE'S FOR PEACE.
Bryan Offers Resolution in
Interparliamentary Congress.
Lord WeardaIe Has Trouble to
Quiet Delegates.
AMERICAN is CHEERED.
Offers Amendment to Govern
Nations at Variance.
Must Submit Their Differences
to Hague Tribunal.
AMERICAN is CHEERED.

London. July 23.-Lord Weardale,
who was elected president of the inter
parliamentary congress, had some diff
ficulty in getting the excited delegates
uuieted after the departure Of the
Russian delegates, but ultimately at
tention became absorbed in the dis
cussion Of the reports of the com
missions on the American proposals
for an international congress and
model arbitration treaty to be sub
nitted to the next conference at The
Hague.
Mr. Bartholdt expressed particular
qualification at the solution suggested
by the committee appointed at Brus-
sells Of this most perplexing problem
The scheme to convert the next Hague
conference into a permanent body
which would meet at stated PERIODS
and to create a council for the codi-
fication and development of interna-
tfonal law, he considered so thorough
w practicable and timely that no we'll
disposed government could object 70
it. In conclusion Mr.. Bartholdt SAID;
WHAT We want is a world organl-
zation and a system of law, in order
to replace arbitrary power in interna-
tionaI relations"
The former Austrian minister of
commerce. Won Plener. presented the
report of the Brussels commission Civ
ing the proposed model treaty OF arbl-
tration. He said that while it was i'm
possible TO recommend the American
proposal in its entirety. some or the
features were good. notably the means
by which it proposed to decrease the
cost of arbitration. Herr van Plener
moved the adoption of the mode'
treaty as amended by the commission
together with a recommendation urg-
ing on the powers that when arbitra-
ton is impossible to have recourse.
singly or jointly to the mediation
of a third power before declaring war.
At this juncture William J. Bryan
rose. his appearance being heartily
cheered.
Il can not see" he said, that people
have any justification in killing each
other before investigating the question
involved There is no question OF the
sufficient Importance of this 1 want
to move an amendment to Herr Won
Plener's recommendation to be ap-
pended to the commission s report. It
goes further than his without going too
far This is my resolution:
eff a disagreement should occur
between contracting parties which. in
the terms of the proposed arbitration
treaty. need not be submitted to arbi-
tratfon. they shall before declaring war
or engaging in any hostiiues Whatever.
submit the question to The Hague
court or some other impartial interna-
tfopaI tribunal

LEFT HIS REVOLVER IN CAMP
Joe J. Carron Went Back for 1t and
Is Arrested.

Joe J. Carron. a member Of the
Twenty-nfnth battery, was locked up
in the county Jail for a few hours to-
day just because two or three mem
bers of his company became drunk
Sunday and deserted while the battery
was camped in North Topeka A lit
tie carelessness on his part entered
somewhat into the cause of the pre-
dicament as he left his gun on the
camp grounds when camp was struck
this morning and he did not miss it
until the company was we'll on its way
to Maple Hi, where they will camp
this evening.
The loss of revolver by a soldier
places him in bad standing with his
superior officers, as when one of them
turns up with a story about losing his
weapon the officer Immediately

of an evenings amusement and the
accompanying drinks.
The lieutenant of McCarron's com
pany, contrary to the usual CUSTOM
gave him an opportunity to return to
the camp of the previous night and
make a search for his weapon, which
he found in the custody of a small
youth who had discovered it where
it had been left by the soldier.
The fact that the police had the de-
scriptiou of two or three deserters re-
suited in his being picked up as soon
as he showed himself on the beat of
one of them and carted off to the city
Jail. protesting at every step that he
was not deserter and not wanted
His protests were of no avail. as ne
looked like a $50 reward to the officer
who had him in charge, and while he

is being held at the city jail until
Sergeant Voiles can verify his story
when he will be released and per
mitted to join his company as soon as
he can overtake them.

MAN WHO FLooRED Bryan.

Congress Again.

Pottsville. Pa. July 3.-Indications
now are that the veteran James B. Reil-
ly. who served his first term in con-
gress from this district in 1874, viii be
returned at the next session. As an ora
tor and debater Mr.. Reilly has few
equals. and purely on account of mis-
proved ability and integrity his nomi-
nation viii be made by the Democrats.
Mr. Reilly. during previous terms in
congress, served with Mckinley and
Bryan on the floor of the house and
is a close personal friend of both.
Reilly's ability as an orator was first
displayed in a colloquy with Bryan in
congress. in which the boy orator of
the Platte" was completely hoored and
acknowledge his defeat.
The proposed nomination of Reilly is
to be very satisfactory to
the Independent voters of this district.
