INFANTICIDE Charged Against Miss Pearl Seavy of Machiasport. Dead Body of Her Infant Child Was Found on July 6. Arrested Yesterday and Held for the October Court lor Murder. Mathias, Me., Aug. 2.-Miss Pearl :-onv.v of Machiasport, was placed un der arrest, today, charged with causing the death of her infant child, the body of which was found upon the beaeh, July fi. On June 2.'., while a domestic in tin- family of \V. J. Cooper. Mis* Seavy gave birth to a child, without medical assistance and refused to give any information as to what disposition had been made of the infant. The 'own authorities took up the case, and, July the body was found on the ln an the night of June 2.'>, she com plained of a toothache ami upon Mrs. o-oopev’s advice went to bed early. During the night she was heard mov ing about down stairs, and when Mrs. Cooper inquired what she was after, the girl made replies that apparently satisfied the former. In the morning. Mrs. Cooper’s sus picions were aroused, but when ques tioned Miss Seavy denied that she had giv-n birth to a child, although.’when a physic ian was summoned and further denial was useless, she acknowledged the fact. Th infant was nowhere to be found. A butcher knife, having hi- o-l stains upon it, \vas found in th" basement by Mrs. Cooper, and the girl's room was found in a disordered condi tion. Later in the day. Miss Seavy told the physician that she wrapped the child in her apron and buried it under a tree, digging its grave with an earthern plate. A search was made for the body in the place designated by the girl, without success, and it was not until 11 days later than it was discovered up on the beaeh.

IT IS INLY A STEP TO WAR. _ 1 Emphatic Language Used by Sec. Hay in His Ulti matum to China. SHE MOST AGREE TO ALL OUR TERMS. Then United States Will Use Good Offices in Stopping Advance of Allied Forces. OUR COURSE SEULEO. Washington, Aug. 2.—Secretary Hay's reply to Li Hung Chans: has closed the negotiations with China un less the old vicer y is able to secure the full acceptance of our terms rela tive to the foreign ministers, and that at once. No orders, therefore, looking to a relaxation of the preparati ins for the advance on Pekin have gone out from Washington, for, as the situation is described by one of the leading of ficials here, there will be no bargain ing on our part in advance of the con cession by the Chinese authorities or full and free communication with the foreign ministers." There is, moreover, a note ominously cl >se to actual declaration of war in Secretary Hay's assertion that the Chi nese government is "unfriendly.” This kind of language is extreme diplomacy and it is only a narrow step between it and formal war. The impression prevails here that the Chinese government, if it is not absolutely bereft of powers t act in defiance of the Uoxers, will accept our terms, and some such action is l.wked for very soon. Possibly a battle, not more, it is believed than at the most, will be required to bring the imperial government to the point of acceptance, though in that case it is questionable whether the original conditions would be regarded as still open to acceptance. If the Chinese government now ac cepts, however, the United States gov ernment will be face to face with one of the most delicate and momentous diplomatic tasks ever undertaken. It must attempt to resume its promise to use its good odices in favor of China, and in the present temper of some of the European powers the greatest dif ficulties may be expected to arise in (lie prosecution of the attempt. It is the confident expectation of the oflleials here, however, that if the Chi nese government, actually and in good i faith, meets all of the four conditions laid down by the President in his re ply to the Chinese Emperor's appeal for aid, that a least a majority of the powers now represented in China will j accept that as a proper base upon whp h to cease present hostilities and open negotiations for a settlement. The decision of the majority in such ease without doubt would receive the- acqui- j eseenre of the minority, else an inter- minable entanglement might arise. Sectetary Hoot said, this afternoon, there had been no developments which w mid necessitate any changes in the instructions to Hen. Chaffee or which would change the intentions of the government in the least. A cipher cable message was sent to! i o-n. Chaffee by Secretary Root, today, j which contained additional inf omation and facts which have developed since the last message was sent him at Nagasaki. The message contained no additional instructions, but merely in formation which he may use as a guide to his actions. It is not believed at the war depart ment that an advance has been made as yet from Tien Tsin. It Is explained j that the last dispatches indicated a great deal of delay in uni lading the transports and before any advance can be made the troops must have all their equipments and transportation. The fact that no reports were receiv ed from Gen. Chaffee during the day was not surprising to the war depart ment oflleials, who .said that the gen eral was busy preparing f i the cam paign and moreover communication be tween Taku and Che Foo is uncertain. Secretary Hay, tonight, said there was nothing new in the Chinese situa tion. Several dispatches from the East wore received by the navy department1 (Continued on page 2 Accidents come with distressing frs juency on the farm. Cut«. bruises, stings, qiratns.

M.—No word comes, this morning, regarding the for tunes of the comparatively small body of troops believed to be forging their way toward IVkin. The silence is prob ably due to diligent censorship rather than to any lack of developments. A Shanghai special anonunces the re ceipt of an official telegram from Tsung Li Yamen asserting that the ministers were all well. July 30, and that vegetables, fruits and other sup plies had been sent to the legations on several 'occasions. “Friendly inter course,” the official telegram says, “is now being carried on between the niin isters and the imperial government.” According to the Daily Kxpress, how ever. cablegrams from Che Foo an nounce that the imperial troops, ad vancing to oppose the relief force, have completely wiped out a Christian town near I'ekin, killing live priests and 10, 000 native Christians. Gen. Oaselee, so -ays this correspondent, was strongly opposed to an immediate advance, but lie was overruled by the other com manders and iniluenced by Washing ton's order to Gen. Chaffee to "pro ceed without an instant's delay.” Ambassador Choate called at the for eign office, today. He dl l not see Lord Salisbury, but it is understood he left a memorandum to the effect that the I'nited States purposed to pay no lieed to Li Hung Chang's remonstrance against an advance n l'ekin nor to as surances that communication with Minister Conger would he established some time in the future. From Shanghai, the Daily Express has received confirmation of the report ed murder of 50 missionaries in the province of Shan Si, with the addition al information that eight English wo men were dragged out of the mission building by a Chinese mob who be headed them in the streets of Chu Chou. French troops are reported to have occupied Meng Tsze, in the province of Yuti Xan. The Tien Tsin correspondent of the Standard says: "A heartrending let ter has been received from the Japan ese legation, dated July 22. stating that the casualties number SO per cent., that only 23 cartridges per man are left, with rations sufficient for five days, and that it is feared the legation will succumb within a week.” Mr. Broderick's statement in the House of Commons, yesterday, placing Great Britain on record as unalterably opposed to the partition of China is well received by all the morning pa pers, which for lack of ottv-r news, chiefly devote their comments on Dr. Morrison's remarkable message to the Times cabled, yesterday, to the I’nited States. The Berlin correspondent of the Daily Chronicle, who reports Emperor William's extraordinary sermon of Monday on board the Hohenzollern, says that some of the most striking sentences attributed to the Kaiser are the following: “Once again has the heathern spirit of the Amalekites been raised in dis tant Asia, with great power and much cunning. With destruction and mur- der it will dispute the way to Euro pean trade anil European culture. It will dispute the victorious march of Christian customs and Christian faith. “And again is heard God's command: •Choose us out men and go out to light, with Amalek.’ A hot and sanguinary struggle has begun. Already a number of our brethren are over there under lire. Many more are travelling along h -tile coasts. “You have seen them, the thousands who t the call for volunteers to the front who will guard the empire, have assembled themselves to battle with victorious banners. \Ve who remain at home are bound by other sacred duties.

Would-Be Murderer Arrested—A Stranger— Shah Shows Great Courage. Paris. Aug. 2.—MuiafTer-Ed-DIn, Shah of Persia, who has boon a visitor to the Exposition since Saturday, as the guest of France, narrowly escaped an i-uissin’s bullet, this morning. It has been arranged tliat he should, to day. visit Sevres and see the national l> ittery works, going afterwards to Versailles, and it was Just after he had left the sovereign’s palace and on his way to tiie Seine to go on board a yacht, placed at his disposal for the trip, that the attempt on his life was made. Only five minutes before the pistol was presented at his breast he was the leeipient of a letter which warned him lhat his life was in danger. No serious thought, however, was given to Its con tents. so numerous had been former warnings of the same character. As ho was seated in the landau before leaving the court of the palace, his sec retary brought him a letter dated Naples, hut posted in Paris, last night, signed with a name hearing an Italian termination. It said: "Today, you shall meet the same fate as Hum bert.” In no wise disconcerted the Shah handed the letter to the ofllcer on guard and gave orders for the car riage t j start. The gates of the palace were thrown open and as the monarch emerged a large crowd of curious on lookers broke into cries of “Vive le Shah" and "Vive la Perse.” Hardly had these acclamations died away when a man dressed in the ordinary clothing of a Paris workman, darted from between two automobiles where he was hidden and rushed toward the imperial carriage, overthrowing a bi cycle policeman, who rolled under the feet of the horses. In an instant he was on the carriage step. Holding the door with his left hand, with his right he pushed a re volver toward the breast of the Shah. He seemed to hesitate for a moment, as though undecided fhere to aim. This hesitation saved the Shah's life, for before the would-be assassin could pul! tiie trigger a strong hand grasped his wrist and wrenched It so that the weapon dropped harmlessly to the bot tom of the landau. "I'd like to have a. photograph of that man,” nonchalantly exclaimed the Shah. Then addressing a few words in his native t ngue to his companion in the carriage he told the coachman to drive on. Seated in the landau with the Shah at the time the assault was made were tiie grand vizier, the personal physi cian of the monarch, and (Jen. Parent, his personal aide. Hen. Parent, in the course of an interview subse quently said: “It was the court physician who met the first criminal advance. It waa he who seized the individual by the wrist sind arrested the movement of aggres sion f >r a sufficient time to allow the pistol t i lie knocked from the assail ant’s hand. 1 am inclined to the belief that the man is an Italian.” A crowd of 500 people who witnessed the attempted assassination made a rush towards the would-be murderer and tried to attack him, but there were many police in the neighborhood acting as guards of the Shah, and these pre vented the mob from doing violence to the miscreant. The prisoner was taken to the police station. This afternoon, the Shah carried out his program for a trip down the Seine to Versailles. The would-be assassin declines abso lutely to give his name or nationality. He speaks but little and that with a southern accent. The police believe him to lie an Italian. He is about 26 years of age. The prisoner has chestnut-colored hair, a large moustache, and blue-gray eyes. Ho was dressed in a blouse and wide trousers, the usual clothes of a eatpenter. In his pocket were found an ugly knife and a handkerchief marked ”12Sth llegiment Infantry.” When this was discovered the man said: Later in the day. to some officials of the Pham who tried to interrogate him. the prisoner said: "Your master will do well to resign: otherwise we will kill him.” The pistol carried by the would-be murderer was of the bulldog type load ed with five cartridges. When the po lice seized the man he tried to break (Continued on page 3.) Waitt Bond’s Blackstone CIGAR The Leading 10-Cent Londre in the World. Known Everywhere QUALITY COUNTS

Cairn* QMtlion Thoroughly Discussed and Washington’* Position Fully Oecided. Washington, Aug. 2.—President Mc Kinley, accompanied by Secretary Cor telyou, reached Washington, at ?.r,o this morning. They travelled in a special car attached to the regular Pennsyl vania train which left Canton, yester day afternoon. At all the stations through Ohio and Pennsylvania, while daylight lasted, crowds congregated. While the President appeared on the rear platform several times in response to the greetings of the people, the stops were brief and he made no attempt to speak. At Eeonomy. Pa.. Mr. Abner McKinley, the President’s brother, boarded the train and rode with the President as far as Pittsburg. The President was met at the train by Secretary Root. General Corbin and Executive Clerk Pruden. who accom panied him to the White House. There is no particular significance in the President's trip to Washington at this time. When he returned to Can ton, two weeks ago, he arranged to come to Washington every fortnight to dispose of such official business as had accumulated in the meantime and to go personally over the Chinese situa tion with his cabinet advisers. In this way, the necessity of sending many bulky papers to Canton for his exam ination and signature would be avoid ed and the President would have an opportunity periodically of consulting with the members of the cabinet. The cabinet meeting lasted about 2>,j hours. Ttiere were present besides the President. Secretary Hay, Secretary Root, Secretary Gage and Postmaster General Smith. The discussion was confined almost exclusively to the Chi nese situation All the details of the situation since the President went to Canton were carefully gone over and a general exchange of views was had. The definite information of the safety of the legationers at Pekin and the hape for their final rescue were consid ered the best features of the situation. The administration desires an imme diate movement on Pekin if it can be inaugurated without too much danger, and while no news has come from Gen eral Chaffee that the forward march has begun, such news is hourly ex pected. Tile failure of the allies thus fur to agree upon a commander is dis appointing. but no new instructions have been or will be sent to General Chaffee. He is on the ground and the administration has the greatest con fidence in his ability and discretion and there is no purpose here to handicap him with instructions. No change in the present policy of the government resulted from the meeting, today. The action of Secre tary Hay in notifying the powers that he had informed Li Hung Chang that we insisted upon being placed in com munication with our minister was unanimously endorsed and commended as a step which must impress upon l.i and the Chinese government the fact that we are not to be trifled with. The administration is not prepared to accept at th s time the statement of Dr. Morrison, the Lond Times correspond ent In Pekin, that imperial edicts en couraged the Boxer movement in the earlier stages of the trouble. MR. WU FEELS AGGRIEVED At the False Position He Is thrust Into ly the Morrison Dispatch. Washington. Aug. 2.—The Chinese minister hail just read the dispatch of Dr. Morrison front Pekin to the Lon don Times when he was seen by a rep resentative of The Associated Press, this morning. Mr. Wu, who all along has maintained an optimistic tone as to the trend of events in China, seemed more distressed by yesterday's events than at any time since the Chinese trouble began. He said: "Of course. I do not know this corre spondent and i cannot tell w hat his sources of information are. They cer tainly are not official utterances. He evidently has been under siege in the British legation for a month and is nat urally irritated, so that his utterances probably are biased and he is inclined to believe the worst of the imperial auth iritles. "I see that he makes the first state ment that I have telegraphed my gov ernment that the United States would •gladly assist the Chinese authorities." This is untrue and it is unfair to me. 1 have telegraphed nothing direct to my government beyond forwarding the President's reply to the request of the Chinese government for mediation. Everyone knows what that is. •‘The statement that I have led my government to expect help from the United States is most unfair to me. It looks as though 1 had not been deal ing candidly. As a matter of fact I have been doing my utmost to deal honestly with both sides and as a loyal subject I have tried to point out the best course to my home government. 'In my communications with the viceroys and high officials with whom 1 have been in correspondence. I have urged that the ministers be put in free communication with their govern ments. I have had only two direct communications from my government since the first trouble occurred, which shows that direct communication is not easy.” It may be stated on good authority that the state department, whatevei may be its opinion of the imperial gov ernment of China, has hail no reasor to change its opinion as to the sin cerity and good intentions of the Chi nese minister here ami the department is continuing to deal with him in entirt Medical Book FREE ••Know Thvself," a book for meu only sent free, postpaid, sealed, to any mat reader mentioning this paper; (Jr. fo postage.

RUSSO-AMERICAN ALLIANCE Is Favorably Looked Upon by at Least One Russian Newspaper. Now York. Auk. 2.—An alliance be tween Russia and the United States for the settlement of the Chinese crisis is urged in a lengthy article In the i Novoe Vremya. The Journal points out that just as the Franeo-Hussian alliance neutralized the warlike men ace of the triple alliance, so would a rapprochement between the northern empire and the United States consoli date the peace of Eastern Asia. It adds: ••As in the case of the Franoo-Rus sian alliance, our rapprochement with the United States has, in fact, been long prepared by the mutual and long standing sympathies between the two nations, and it remains for diplomacy to give shape and form to these sym pathies.” The Novoe Vremya points out that the attitude taken by the United States in Chinese questions meets with the tullest approval of Russian society. Neither country seeks vengeance, but desires substantial and lasting pacifi cation of China and the Far East. "Both nations.” the journal says, •'are sufferers by the competition of Chinese cheap labor, but do not seek retaliatory measures. Russia in the old world and the United States in the new world are, by the force of circum stances, the first to enter into the his toric struggle with the yellow race, but just as in American we look upon this trouble not so much as a rivalry be tween races as between civilization and the yellow danger. In short, it af fects Russians and Americans most, and this naturally creates like interests in the same question and impels them to view events in Eastern Asia from the same matter of fact, historical and humantarian standpoint.” CHINESE FORTRESS TAKEN.

A Token correspondent of the Japan Herald, in a lengthy article, says: "In spite of exultant articles in the foreign press, exhorting Japan to heroic en deavors. she does not enter the China campaign with pride. The nation at large condemns it. Japan, it is alleged, has been dragged into it. The corres pondent prophesies war with Russia over settling up accounts in China and says China would throw in its lot with Japan against Russia. Illinois torn crop Badly Damaged.

Sores and Ulcers never become chronic unless the blood is in poor condition is sluggish, weak and unable to throw off the poisons that accumulate in it.

Tuc injunction was asked on the ground that the United States has expressly dis claimed sovereignty over Cuba and Gov. Glen. Wood has not. therefore, the power to promulgate the new code. Judge Thomas set Aug. IS* tor a further hearing. He said he would sign a tem porary order restraining Gov. Gen.

futtS Kennebec 3ottmai> THE POWERS TRIAL TM InpprtaRl Rulings by ths judgt. Mb AgnUst tbs Dstsndant. Oeorgotown, Ky„ Aug. 2.-Much of the time of today’s session in the trial of Former Secretary of State Powers charged with complicity in the Goehei shooting. was taken up by the wran gling of the attorneys for both sides, the Jury begin sent out a dozen times while points were argued. The feature of the day was the pre senting by Col. Mengel of the 1st Ken tucky National Guard, of an autograph letter from Gov. Taylor, dated Jan. 18. two weeks before the shooting of Gov. Goebel, in which Metigel was instruct ed to obey "all orders and signals" given to him by Adjutant General Col riel. Col. Mengel offered to explain the cipher message, "all right" sent out by Gen. Collier Immediately after the shooting. On two important points the defence was overruled. Judge Cantrell refused to allow one witness to relate a con versation he claimed to have had with Wharton Golden relative to receiving pay for testimony and refused to allow another witness to read to the Jury the resolution adopted by the mountain petitioners and which they attempted to present to the Legislature. The de fence expected to show by these reso lutions that the assemblage of the pe titioners was not for an unlawful pur P°Se‘ _____ Kev. John Stamper, brother-in-law of Wharton Golden, was recalled, to day. in the trial of Caleb Powers, charged with complicity in the Goebel shooting. Colonel Hendricks of the prosecution, questioned him as to the part he took in getting Republicans from Scott county to go to the state capital. Jan. 25. He said that he se cured quite a number. On re-direct ex amination Stamper said his conversa tions with Golden regarding the money he tGolden) was to receive for convic tions was confidential, but that he made them public because a man's life was in jeopardy. "The witness should not make stump speeches in the court house," said Judge Cantrill sharply. Stamper declared he hail never been authorized by any one to offer money to Golden to leave the state before the trial. His memory had been refreshed since adjournment of court, yesterday, and he desired to correct the statement made then that his offer of $5000 to Golden was after the talking with Caleb Powers, the defendant. He said he had the conversation with Golden before talking with Powers. The defence called R. 1,. McClure of Lexington, a newspaper man. Attor ney Owens asked him if Witness Gold en had not said to him that Youtsey was a fool for talking too much and would not get a cent, but that he. (Golden) had fixed it before he told his story to the prosecution. The prosecu tion objected and was sustained by the court. An exception was taken. Col. C. C. Mengel of the 1st Ken tucky Regiment, N. G„ produced two telegrams received at Louisville on the day of the shooting, at 2 P. M., con taining only the words "All right” and signed D. R. Collier, adjutant general. Also a letter from Collier explaining the words “ail right" meant for the witness to come to Frankfort and bring regiment and Gattling gun. On cross examination the prosecution read this letter to show that Collier had sent the telegram before and not after noon. Col. Mengel produced orders signed by Gov. Taylor for the movement of the regiment to Frankfort. Taylor direct ed him to obey "all orders and signals” given him by Adjutant General Collier. Stephen C. Sharp of Lexington, chair man of the mountaineers’ meeting held on the steps of the Capitol, Jan. 2S, produced the minutes and resolutions of tiiat meeting. Before the afternoon session. Attor ney Brown of the defence, presented the copy of tiie resolutions adopted at the meeting of mountain nten and asked that they be read to the jury. The judge ruled: "The paper offered as evidence is clearly incompetent. You might as well read to the Judy Pope's "Essay on Man." Sharpe again took the stand. He said he told Gov. Taylor and Gen. Col lier before Jan. 30. that he had been warned by a Democratic friend to stay away from Frankfort, as the parties pushing the gubernatorial contest had 20,000 rifles there and were ready to use them. Frank C. Carpenter of Louisville, the last witness of the day. who was in Frankfort, Jan. 30. was called by the defence to show the state of feeling on the streets of the city immediately after the shooting of Goebel. He re peated threats that he heard made against the occupants of the executive building. MICHAEL FAILS TO APPEAR. Nelson Takes Race by Forfeit and Michael Is Suspended. Bridgeport. Conn.. Aug. 2.—Because of Jimmy Michael’s failure to appear, the second in the series of races between Mi chael anti Johnny Nelson, to determine the middle distance championship of the World, which was to have taken place at Pleasure Beach, this afternoon, was post poned. Michael, in consequence, has been suspended by the executive board of the National Cycling Association. His sus pension covers every track in the United States and Europe. Several hundred per sons who intended to witness the race And who came here from Boston and New York for the purpose were disappointed. Michael’s whereabouts is not known here. None of his property nor that of his pacers have appeared nor any word of him been received. Nelson went to the track, this afternoon.and rode around several times. He then claimed the race, which was awarded him by the judges. He now claims the middle distance cham pionship. Michael III, Not Mad. New York. Aug. 2.—Manager Kennedy, tonight, gave out the following state ment: Jimmy Michael is suffering from a severe cold contracted in Philadelphia in one of the races with McFarland and will rest for a few' weeks. He went to Boston and raced Nelson against the ad vice of his physician, Tuesday night, and since that time has had a relapse.

•HAH OF PEMIA (Continued from page 1.) away and cried: ‘.’Vlvee, Children. People.” An officer tried to stop him, but he shouted: “To my assistance, friends.” Then he quieted down and permitted himself to be taken off. When the knife was found on his person, an ofllcer remarked: “You al so had a knife, to which the man re plied: “Yes, 1 took some precaution.” “Why did you attempt to assassinate the Shah?” the officer asked. "Because," was the reply, "it pleas ed me. That does not concern you.” T all other questions the prisoner re mained dumb. An eye-witness of the affair said: “When the gate of the palace opened the first carriage to appear contained the Shah. He sat at the right hand side of the carriage, with the doctor at his side. Opposite was the grand vizier, and at his side Gen. Parent, the personal aide of the Shah. They were on their way to the Pont Alexander III where they were to take the boat for Sevres, to visit the pottery works there. "The landau turned to the left towards the Avenue Bois de Boulogne. It had not gone far when a man dressed as a carpenter rushed towards the carriage and put his right foot on the step, rest ing his left hand on the door to assist him to mount. Then drawing his right hand from his pocket he pushed it to wards the breast of the Shah. This hand carried a revolver. "The Shah was surprised, but did not really pay much attention to the man until he perceived the weapon. Then he bounded aside, and, standing up in the landau, lifted a cane, a second later bringing it down upon the head of his assailant. "Atthesame moment, the grand vizier jumped to his feet and seized the man by the arm and twisted his wrist, act ually raising him from the ground. "The grand vizier is a veritable giant and without apparent effort he held the aggressor suspended in the air. "Then a policeman following on a bi cycle jumped from his machine and, grasping the man. drew him back. Other police arrived and the man was overpowered and led away.” I'p to 6 o’clock this evening, the in vestigations of the police had not re sulted in any developments tending to establish the identity of the would-be assassin or associating any other per son with his attempt. When the of ficials interrogated the prisoner, this afternoon, he maintained absolute silence. Nothing could induce him to say a word. He struggled desperately to avoid a picture being taken and had to be bound hand and foot and his head held between the knees of the photog rapher's assistant. The impression is gaining ground that he is an Italian. He certainly is a native of a southern country. THE ASSAILANT UNIDENTIFIED. Police Mystified -Extra Precautions to Pro tect Shah and President.

The peculiarity of his accent, although he speaks perfect French, mystifies the officials, it having been asserted by one of these that his accent was English, a man speaking English, was permitted to enter his cell. The visitor addressed him but he gave the appearance of absolute inability to understand and the visitor came away convinced that he was not acquainted with that language. The impression left was that he is from Southern France, or possibly is a border Span iard. While the popular belief is that he had an accomplice, there is no actual evidence to prove this. The police are thoroughly mystified and disconcerted. Although the man has been seen by most of the secret service officials, not one of them has been able to recognize him. Paris has received the news of the attempt with but one sentiment, that of indignation. All join to con demn this outrage upon the guest of the nation. As a result of it, the Shah will hereafter be surrounded by a guard wherever he goes. Extra pre cautions will also be taken to protect President Loubet. Evidence ol An Accomplice. Paris. Aug. 3.—4.30 A. M.—It now ap pears that the police have secured a piece of evidence going to support the popular belief that the Shah's assailant had an accomplice. M. Massy, an ar tist, says that a quarter of an hour be fore the outrage he saw the criminal in company with a well-dressed man impatiently awaiting the appearanle of the royal visitor. The criminal stamped his feet and exclaimed: "Lord, what a time he is.” At this his companion pulled a fine watch from his pocket, saying: "It is five past nine, and it won't be long now.” Shah Will Net Visit England. London, Aug. 3.—The Shah's visit to England has been virtually abandoned according to the Times, on account of the attempt to assassinate him in Paris.

Marozzi. and seven Anarchists have been arrested at Prato. .Vitale Pus Kauzini, who was arrested at Ancona, ad wits travelling with Bressl from Milan to Monza. Bressl has been removed from Monza to Milan. According to the declarations made to the Milan police by persons who wit nessed the assassination of King Hum bert. and especially the King's footmen four or live persons, wearing around their necks black handkerchiefs such as Bressl wore, were seen around the royal car riage at the time of the crime. After it was committed they began shouting, evi dently to Increase the confusion and to help Bressl escape. 11 Corrlere Della Italia says the police have discovered that a huge plot was formed in America to murder King Hum bert and that his assassination was to op followed by similar crimes throughout Kuroite. Another discovery Is that Bressl, last Sunday, entered the royal chapel of the villa during mass, evidently with the in tention ot assassinating Humbert If he were there. A man suspected of being an accom plice of Bressl was arrested, yesterday, at a railway station here. He had re cently arrived from the I'nited States and will be sent to Monza for Inspection. Notwithstanding the most thorough search, the will of King Humbert has not been found. Count Brambilla lias arrived In Rome to continue the search, which is retarding the arrangements for the funeral. ANARCHIST MEETING At Patter.on. N. I., at Which the Italian Situ ation Is Discussed. Now York, Aug. 2.—Several hundred Anarchists held a meeting in Paterson, N. J., today, for the purpose of discus sing the situation in Italy. There were Frenchmen. Spaniards and a few Aus trians in. the assemblage, which con sisted mainly of Italians. Pedro Esteve, the Spanish leader and editor of a Paterson Anrehist publica tion discussed the situation in Italy from his own standpoint, averring that the Italian government was bad to the core and that Italy's only hope is in the Anarchists. They had no secrets, he said, and took no part in plots. Bressi had not been sent to kill the King; he did the act of his own free will. Esteve ended his speech with the exclamation: "I am not sure what you people think of the death of the King, but for me I don't care that." snapping his finger as he said so. Other people disclaimed the existence of any plot to kill the King. New York Italians Are Loyal.

The "Bed Shirt” Viet ary. The Democratic victory in Nortli Carolina, yesterday, had been carefully arranged in advance by the “red .shirt’’ campaigners. The intimidation was highly successful as is shown by thf returns. The whole affair was a trav esty.on a free and fair ballot. The election of state officers was over shad wed by the proposed constitu tional amendment whose avowed ob ject is to eliminate entirely the negro as a factor in North Carolina politics, the application of an educa tional qualification to the negroes anil not to the wtiites Is an indefensible trick that is worthy of the party which resorted to Goebelism in Kentucky. In North Carolina'the Democrats have not the usual southern excufse that white supremacy is endan ger^!, for the whites outnumber the ltlkk in the ratio of two to one. The disenfranchisement of the blacks is simply for the purpose of getting polit ical control when the votes are lacking. The Republican and Populist vote among the whites has been getting so large that with the aid of the colored vote, it promised to overthrow com pletely and permanently the old Dem ocratic regime in that state. Such a thing could never be allowed for an in stant and so the plan of “legally” dis enfranchising the blacks was evolved. In lt>98 the Democrats conducted a similar red shirt campaign of intimida tion, which, culminated in the Wilming ton race riot of November 10. when a number of persons were killed and wounded and a large part of the negro population sought refuge in the swamps. The Legislature immediately set about the task of disfranchising the negroes, and the franchise clause, which was submitted to the people for ratification ns an amendment to the State Constitution, is the result. So thoroughgoing was their work that they changed the state election from November to August, in order that na tional politics should not he brought into play and the federal authorities should have no hand in the contest. Armed bands of 1000 or 2000 men, accompanied with cannon and ma chine guns, have been parading about the eastern part of the state prevent ing meetings by the opposition, stilling till discussion and threatening death to all who dare to vote against the amendment. n i uiu> was wiin int* Kim iuus i'rm ocratic victory in North Carolina. Ami the party which resorts to such barbaric and Roxer-liko methods dares to talk about "government without the consent of the governed” in the Philippines! There's Nothing the Matter With Kansas. A gentleman who has just returned from an extended tour of Kansas, writes to the Boston Transcript that the paramount Issue in that State is neither 18 to 1. imperialism nor trusts. It is the probable price that the farm ers of the Sunflower State will receive for their wheat crop of from Sr.,non,00n to 100.000,000 bushels. In spite of fusion w ith the Democrats, which the Kansas Populists have made as com plete as possible, the rank and lile of the Kansas voters ate too busy with their crops to spend much time talking politics, and the Transcript’s informant thinks that when election day comes, they will vote to continue the admin istration under which they have en joyed their largest measure of pros perity. Nobody attributes the enor mous crops to the Republican admin istration. but there are many Kansas farmers who remember the time under a Democratic administration when the corn cr p was a tremendous one, and prices were so low that instead of harvesting the crop, the hogs Were turned into.,the cornfields. Today the wheat crop is not only large., anil the recent ralnS have given the corn a' start which promises a crop of 200,000, 000 bushels, but the prices of cereals are so high that the crop not only pays for harvesting but leaves the farmer enough to pay off, the mortgage or place a handsome sum in the bank. And here is where the Republican ad ministration comes in. Kansas gave a majority for Bryan in IXOfi .f 12.000 votes. Since then there lias been something of a change, grow ing stronger each year with the swell ing tide of prosperity. Within the last four years the Republicans of Kansas have elected ‘goveyn’fir htul seven «*jt of eight congressmen, and fni* tendency is still toward a return of the state to the Republican column. But over all the issues' of the campaign, and the personal popularity of candidates, the interests of the Kansas farmer are in bis crops. When his prices for these are better under a Republican admin istration than under Democratic rule, tie cannot licip feeling that in self-in terest ho might to do what he can to maintain such conditions oS prosperity, (lovernor Roosevelt is very popular in Kansas, and undoubtedly adds to the strength of the ticket in that state. The Democrats seem to be making their great stress on campaign oratory in Kansas. “Jerry” Simpson is a can didate for the Senate and is making an active canvass in his own behalf. But tin- independent voters, who will de termine tile result, will probably he in fluenced far more by conditions which affect themselves titan any amount of 1 smpaign oratory, ami the ,ndepeudeht voter cannot help noticing tin connec tion between Republican' success and prosperity. When a Chi imnaa Decomet ft criminal the law punishes his par ents and even the grand parents. This is only the extreme logical ap plication of the doctrine of hered ity. In this coun try, we leave nat ural law to ileal with its own offenses, and many a mother is punished through the physical weak ness and peev ish temper of puny offspring. Women mainly err through ignorance. They enter the marriage state already disordered by irregularity of the periods. The delicate and sensitive organs, pecu liarly feminine, are in no condition for the shock which is consequent on the great change. Drains that are offensive and debilitating are set up, inflammation and ulceration with femule trouble are added in time, and when motherhood comes the strength of liody is inadequate, and the condition of mind unfit, for the responsibility. The natural result is a child that is unhealthy and unhappy. Happy wifehood, healthy motherhood, beautiful children,all follow the use of I)r. Pierce’s Favorite Prescription.

It was to ho expected that the New York Sun would take kindly to the "shirtwaist man” as they call the coatless and vestless individual who keeps cool when his brother man swel ters. In a recent issue the Sun editor breaks out thus: "Hail to the shirt waist: But why all these tremors about plcturesi|ueness and fit? Why not recall and adapt to maturer age the shirtwaist of our boyhood, but toned to the breeches? No suspenders, no belt, no discomfort about the waist, no crawling. Sew buttons on the shirt and button to a double flap on the breeches, the outside band of which might slightly overlap the inner, con cealing the buttons, and be fitted to the figure by a short strap and buckle in front. Nothing could be simpler or more hygienic. What about it?” Take a Day Ofl. Put by the tiresome tusk for i while, Take a day off. Go where the hills in their happiness smile. Take a day off.

What would become of IJassaohu setts if ail the Maine-born people there should comc to Maine, next week? It takes Editor Boardman of the Commercial to get into those writers w.ho decry Maine as an agricultural state. Thcn> arc times when a tramp can hustle, as was shown when one was overtaken by a train on a Waterville railroad bridge. The Democratic faithful at the Al fred meeting solemnly swallowed M. P. Frank's solemn declaration that the I,ord established the 1C to 1 ratio by putting just 16 times as much silver as gold int i the earth. In Hancock county the Democrats put a Sarah Ware murder case into their platform, hoping it would work better than the 16 to 1 racket.,' It was evidcntally an oversight of the York Democrats that they failed to make the Fannie Sprague murder an "issue." No wonder Gen. Lynch declined to speak when nominated for Congress in the first district.Somebody might have asked him if he had changed the views of Bryan and Bryanism which lie had in ism; H.-ing an honest man he would have had to answer "No!" Lewist .n Journal; The Bangor Com mercial relents sufficiently to describe how (-'utidldate Bryan spend Sunday. Hut any \yu*d us to the principles that Candidate' Bryan's platform enunci ates? Alas, never a word! Ten sturdy young men "'ho have passed the severe physical examination requisite for admission to the life sav ing service, have recently none from South Lubec to stations at various points along the New England coast. South I.ubev is. famous for her bold and hardy tlshermert who make the best men in the world for the arduous duties of the life saving service. The Portland Sunday Telegram holds its breath a moment and then gushes that the Portland girl at Old Orchard can he easily distinguished fr mi her sisters from other New England cities. Then the Telegram tells us how we may know her when we see her. She has plenty of dash, is sure to be ex tremely pretty, always is becomingly dressed, “and carries herself with an air of dignity that only Portland girls are callable of assuming.” A Biddeford hypnotist,—we hope it wasn't one of Ideut. Jefferies pupils,— tried, this week, to hypnotize a lady of that city so that he might cut off her hair which is of unusual length and luxuriance. It was a bold game but the would-be thief was frightened and fled. Calais claims a star swimmer in young Will H. Smith of that city. He recently swam four ami one-half miles across the bay In just one hour, and wanted to swim back but his friends would not allow it. It is stated that chicken thieves have been operating in Oakland and Smlih lield. One farmer set a gun at his hennery arranged to go off if the door should be opened. Close to the hour of midnight the family were awakened by the discharge of the gun. The farmer reached the open air just in time to see two men climb into a team and drive rapidly away. One of the men was using language untit to print, but under the circumstances it is not so difficult to forgive him. The Bath Times has mixed the literary members of the Smith family. Selia Smith the Buekfleld-born and Bowdoin-educated author was a bril liant and versatile writer of the first half of the century, the leading Amer ican humorist of his times, hut he never laid claim to the noble anthem "America.” That was written by Samuel Francis SiniUi, l»orn in Boston, educated at Harvard; and afterward a preacher in Maine. The sweet singer of Bridgton thus bursts forth:—“Now maiden guest her straight hair frizzles; her hostess o'er the hot stove sizzles. Hark! hark! the dogs do bark, the big-hugs come to town, each summer' guest s richly dressed, in fancy coat or gown. And j like their garb, my verse is loose, though patterned after Mother Goose. Dogs, to the right of us, dogs to the left of us. dogs front and rear of us. spoil peace and slumbers, Bridgton's in dogmatic spell: citizens with anger swell, wish the dogs in-Hallowell, regardless of numbers.” THE AUGUST MAGAZINES.

Exsilda Cretien of Lewiston Arrested Here for Stealing $10 in Lewiston. Thorp was a little flutter of excite ment among the inhabitants of the corporation tenement house on Sand hill, known as block 66, No. 5, Thurs day morning, occasioned by a visit from Deputy Marshal Grover, accom panied by Detective Maxime Beaulieu of Lewiston. The latter officer was looking for Miss Exsilda Cretien, a young woman from Lewiston who was wanted in that city for the larceny of *10 from Annie Michaud, an employe ol the Bates mill, last Friday. Detective Beaulieu came to Augusta on the morning train in response to information received that the girl had come to Augusta, Wednesday, with an other girl, and securing the assistance of the deputy marshal, a search was instituted on the hill. As the officers approached the tenement house the girl was seen sitting at a window, ami her capture was a thing of but little effort. The deputy marshal made the arrest, and turned her over to Mr. Beaulieu, and she was taken to the po lice station to await the arrival of the forenoon express. The girl is IS years of age and of bright appearance, and the detective stated that she belonged to a respect aide family. She agreed to go back to Lewiston with the officer and seemed in good spirits as the deputy marshal escorted her to the train. Law Court at Portland.

Trj Jell-O, a delicious and healthful dessert Prepared in two minutes. No boiling! n ui ii.iriuic auu dislocation of bones hardly need descrip tion: yet if a person sustains either of these Injuries the by-standers oft'on be come confused, and without stopping to render assistance, rush off pell-mell for half a dozen different doctors. While it is desirable that early attention and cor rection be given, it Is not so important, unless they be complicated by other in juries; but that an Intelligent layman may give immediate and practical aid that will minimize the. pain until the ser vices of a surgeon can be secured. If a fracture, place the limb in its natural position when at rest, and secure it by some light appliance with anything that will hold it firmly, such as handkerchiefs, or any bandage that can be procured. If a dislocation, try and hold the limb steadily In that position that gives the least discomfort by such devices as the ingenuity of those giving assistance can invent. A pillow or a folded coat or other soft articles put under the arm in a dis located shoulder will add materially t-j one's comfort while they are being moved. A general rule applicable to all injuries of bony or soft structures is to secure all possible immotility at any time whether in transit or not, as pain promotes nerve irritation acting disastrously upon the whole system. In contused, lacerated or Incised wounds, secure quickly, If possi ble, elean boiled water, and having re moved all forms of dirt or any substance liable to infect It, wash oft and bath* thoroughly, not only the wound itself, but all the parts surrounding, and covet with absolutely clean cloths if any ar* obtainable. This will reduce the danget of infection to the minimum and save blood-poisoning. Ilesides, hot, moist ap plications produce comfort, reduce swell Ing, and are in themselves antiseptic. It hardly nec*d bo said that the hands of any one who attempts to dress open wounds should be scrupulously clean before tht lingers come in contact with them, as dirty hands are often a medium of In fection. Not infrequently blood vessels of con slderable size are wounded from whiel serious hemorrhage may follow. If the occluded by the hand, or an Impro vised tourniquet, such as a knotted h Mi l kerchief or any substance that will ar. the blood flov case It be the foot, supply rte near the centre of t! hollow bent alb the knee, and pressing U upward against the bone completely closes the vessels and stops all arterial bleeding be> 1 u point Tf ae "tes, w -eh are quite numcrou. h/ of the hand, are severed, the. e- is apt to be a troublesome hemorrhage, unless one is familiar with the means for its control. A pretty nrm led! of n\ v b'■ mac i .a may be p! ed close I- lii.d the oid and secured as to :-i I an tt-t. pressure, which is generally uffi cient. but should the bleeding continue despite this precaution, the artery can bo compressed in front of the arm just above and a little outside the middle of the bond of the elbow. Force thus ap plied will control bleeding of any arteries injured in the forearm nr hand. Burns or scalds arc dangerous in pro portion to their area and depth, though extent, even if superficial, reason of extreme shock produced uper. the nervou system, is more apt to In- disastrous than deep burns over a small surface. If a scald, the same principle applies, but nearly always those of any extent are greatly increased in severity ty the clothing, which becomes saturated ih the scalding liquid, pro’- -tng heat and contact. The clothing s be removed as qu l:lv and careft s possible, always lemembering to c l off the gar ments next to tile body so to avoid as much as possible the tearing of the blis ters and exposing a raw surface. Blisters should be opened cautiously' at their lowest point, permitting the fluid contents to drain away, and then the whole of the burned or scalded surface covered as thoroughly as possible from the air. An excellent dressing for these in juries is clean vaseline, mixed with a little soda carbonate (common saleratusj spread thickly over the burns or scalds; a soft cloth over all, then a layer of cot ton. ami held by a bandage. Great depres sion is almost sure to follow such in juries. The pain needs to be controlled by opiates, and frequently stimulants are necessary. The person often feels very cold and suffers from chills, due to the nervous shock. Meet these by the same means as already given. Laudanum is often easily obtained. To an adult give 15 to 20 drops in little water and re peat safely in an hour If patient still suff. "v pain and is restless. To a child 2 t drops, according to age, that is fron. one to live years old. Infants are ver .ntolerant of opiates and no one but a •'‘•vsi'dan should give them. 1 1 have given a mere outline of th“ nlttlns to be rationally adopted in the ei gentles of accidents, presupposing that they are to be used for the safety and comfort of the unfortunate before medical aid can arrive. Realizing brevity make them Imperfect, yet they are tho first essentials, and my hope is that It will stimulate some to realize the full im-'ortance and import of even such lltn i -•'d knowledge us I have tried to eom ess into this epitome of that which every layman should know.

Bast Ball Notes. Frank Killen, the National league pitcher, has been signed by Toronto. (»lobe: Manager Selee has wagered a .suit of tailor-made clothes that his team will win more games on this trip than it won on the two first trips West. If it doesn’t tnc Boston public will get op a petition to sell the outfit for a hand painting of Li Hung Chang done in yel low ochre, and then auction off the pic ture for the benefit of the working boys* home. Treasurer Kerr of the Pittsburg club, doql&res that Leever made a record on Saturday at Boston. He has been with the Pittsburg team since' 18K8, but on Saturday ho made ids first bom* run ami stole his first base. He played three games in 1898 without getting a hit or stealing a base, in 1S99 1m played 51 games, getting singles, six doubles and four triples, but not a homer. Hooroo for the fence! The league political pot is boiling, says the St. Louis Republic. John T. Brush has been swinging around the league cir cuit. and it’s good betting that he is not making a the trip for the benefit of his health. If it wasn't for that 10-year agreement things would have been made decidedly pleasant for Abell of Brooklyn, at the last meeting of the league, and it wouldn’t be surprising if the kibosh was administered to Brooklyn this year any how. agreement of no agreement. Globe: Prof. Ted Lewis has a grievance against the Boston club. It seems that Teddy was loaned to some independent team near Worcester to pitch a Saturday game and the club received $f»o for his services. Teddy maintains that the money should go to him. while the management contends that Lewis has only pitched one full game for three weeks ami is entitled to no extra money for working overtime, and then you are. Perhaps the new Players* Association will make a note of the Lewis case. There is considerable bad blood be tween the officials of the Pittsburg and Brooklyn clubs, according to Joe Vila of the New York Sun. Hanlon charges Dreyfuss with circulating false rumors about, him and the club. On the first visit of the Brooklyns to Pittsburg. Dreyfuss and Hanlon had a run-in be cause the Pittsburg president threatened to bar the Brooklyn manager from the grounds for standing up for Umpire Hurst. Hanlon dared Dreyfuss to make such n move, and the latter took water. Pittsburg is said to be making more money than any other club in the league, and Hanlon says Dreyfuss is suffering from “big head.’* Globe: The Bostons left by boat, last flight, for Brooklyn, where they will play one game, and then go West, opening m (Mncinnati, next Saturday. Fred Tenney will remain at home, as he is threatened with serious illness if he doesn’t take a good rest at the present time. Hugh Dully will have full charge of the team whether he plays or not on the trip, and may get into the game if Barry fails to make good at first base, something he has failed to do here against Cincinnati. Clements will go to Philadelphia, his home, where he will practice daily and be ready for a call. His wotk has been satisfactory and the club will hang on to him. Bill Clarke and Vic \Yillte will join the team at Brooklyn. STATE NEWS KENNEBEC. CHINA. Miss Florence E. Stover of Chicopee.
