Offenses Against the Law Made Simply Misdemeanors Several Important Modifications Proposed. Conference Report on the Sundry Civil Bill Made The Hous Agrees With the Senate Except as to Irriga tionThe General Deficiency Bill in the House Capi tal Motes. "WAsniXGTox, August 7. Under the res olution of the senate authoring sittings during the session of the senate, the com mittee on privileges and elections began a special meeting at noon today to consider the election bill. There was a full attend ance of the members. The bill is still held in confidence, but one of the minoritj- says tlmt save in matter of change of expres sion, chiefly in the way of reducing its length, the bill as it passed the house is the one proposed by the majority. The principle of the bill and its practical work ings are not disturbed. The committee voted by a strict party division to report the bill to the senate. The substitute for the Lodge bill is seventeen pages shorter than the bill which passed the house. Among the changes which the senate committee made are the following: All reference to the section of the re vised statute, which, it was claimed, pro vides for the presence of troops at the polls was stricken out, so that there is no change from the presnt law in that re spect. The house to house canvass pro vided for in the house bill was stricken out. The provisions for drawing juries by commissioners was omitted, leaving the law as it is at present on the books. The penal offenses were sim plified, and were made misdemeanors in stead of felouies. The punishments were modified, the highest punishment imposed being three years imprisonment and a fine of slOOO as against imprisonment for five j ears and a line of $1,000 in the house bill. The judge of thecircuit court before whom application is made for the appointment ot .supervisors, is authorized to appoint as supervisors any persons he may see fit, not being confined in his selection to the lists furni-hed by the chief supervisor. In cases where ballots arc cast in the wrong box. they are not to be counted, uidess the tally sheet shows that, the votes for con gressmen do not equal the number of names on the poll list. Then enough of the votes so wrongfully cast shall be added to the tally sheet to make the total equal to the w hole number of votes shown to be cast. Where the election officers re fuse to administer the oath to voters ap plying therefor, it is provided in the bill that the supervisors shall administer the oath ami keep a record thereof, but no Ufort shall be made to have the vote thus ret used cast, the object being merely to 1 reserve the testimony of the application und refusal. SUNDRY CIVIL BILL. The Conference Beport Presented and Ex plained to the Senate. "Washington', August 7. The senate met at 10 a. in., and the call showed that that there were only thirty-two senators, and less than a quorum in attendance. After a short waiting a quorum was ob tainedand the journal of yesterday's pro ceedings was read. After some preliminary morning busi ness, the taritr bill was taken up, the pending question being on Mr. Vance's amendment to reduce the duty on pig iron (paragraph V2A pasje 25) irom of a cent per pound to cs) per ton. i ne question was taken and Mr. Vance's amendment was rejected yeas 17, nays 27. There were no deviations f i om party lines on this vote. The next paragraph taxes bar iron, flats and square iron from 8-10 of a cent to 1 cent per pound (according to classifica tion.) Mr. McPherson moved to amend by Ftriking out the rates per pound and in serting a uniform rate of 50 per cent ad va lorem. Mr. McPherson's amendment was re jected yeas IS, nays 28, another strict party vote. The next paragraph taxes round iron in roils or rods (of certain shapes and sizes) 1 1-10 cent per pound with the provision that ail charcoal iron shall be subject to a duty of not less than $22 per ton. Mr. McPherson moved to reduce the var ious rates in the paragraph. Kejected. Mr. Vance moved to leduce the rate in paragraph 131. beams, girders and other structural sleepers of iron or steel from 9-10 to (M0 of 1 cent per pound. Mr. Paddock appealed to Mr. Aldrich in the interest of agriculture to agree to at liast 1-10 cent "per pound reduction on .structural iron. Mr Aldrich hearkened to the appeal and on Ins motion the rare was reduced to S-10 ivnts per pound, Mr. Vance's amendment to make it 0-10 having been rejected. The next paragraph (131) applies to boiler iron or steel and imposes duties varying according to classification from 1 cent per pound to 3o4 cents per pouud. The duty on the highest class to 45 per cent ad v.dorein. Mr. Vest, after an argument controvert ing the protectionist claim that low prices are the result of tarill legislation' moved to reduce the various specific rates in the paragraphs to 50 per cent ad valorem, Re jected Vea& 20, nays 20, a strict party rote. Xo change was made in paragraph 133. The next paragraph (184; applies to hoop or band or scroll or other iron or steel, t-ixing it according to sizes: with a pro mso that cotton ties shall pay 2-10 cent per pouud additional. Mr. Coke moved to make the duty on cotton ties 35 per cent ad valorem (the present rate) and addressed the senate in support of that amendment. Mr. Jones, of Arkansas, yielded to Mr. Allison, who presented the conference re port on the sundry civil bill and asked that the senate should act upon it. Mr. Cockrell preferred to wait until the loport wa. printed. li Allison said that he would give a fieneral explanation of the report. The all. ho said, as it passed the house, had earned -JsOOO.OoO and had been increased by the senate about $5,000,000. The net re ductions agreed to in the conference com mittee amounted to $3,70(5.000, so that the bill earned under the conference report $29.S5-000 The changes made in confer ence related first to public buildings. The appropriation tor that at Alexandria. La., had been reduced $5,000; for Beuver Falls, Pa., $5,000, and Salinn, Kan., $5,000. The appropriation for repairs to the Chicago c ustom house had been cut down from $100,000 to $45,000. The amend ment as to the Latin-American memorial library had been struck out; also the provision for the expenses of two addi tional laud offices. The appropriation of $150,000 for military posts has been reduced to $40,000, and the provision for the acqui sition of additional ground in the Crown Hill cemetery at Indianapolis had been struck out. All the senate amendments relating to the national soldier's home, in cluding that appointing managers, had been also struck out. The matter will now go to the military committees of both houses. The provision in relation to irri gation surveys had been postponed for further conference. The conference report was ordered print ed and went over till tomorrow without action. Mr. Hoar from the committee on privi leges and elections reported a substitute for the election bill and it was placed on the calendar. The minority of the com mittee, he said, dissented from the report. Mr. Frye gave notice that he would not ask the senate to take up the river and harbor bill until Friday of next week. Mr. Aldrich said he was in hopes that the consideration of the tariff bill would be practically finished within the next week. Mr. Mitchell expressed his regret at the postponement of the river and harbor bill, important works were now stopped in Oregon and he would give preference to the river and harbor bill rather than to the tariff bill. Mr. Edmunds would not consent to any arrangement that would displace the tariff bill until it was ended for good or evil. The conference on the fortification bill was presented but went over without ac tion and after an executive session the senate adjourned. INDEBTEDNESS SEDUCTION. A Great Decrease for the State in Ten Years. 'Washington', August 7. Superintend ent Porter issued a bulletin containing a preliminary report relative to state indeot ness. The superintendent states in regard to the statistics: "It is impossible in dealing with state and local finances to give all the returns as of June 1, 1890, and the act for taking the eleventh and subsequent censuses, ap proved March 1, 1890, providesthat returns shall be of and for the fiscal year having its termination nearest to the 1st of June, 1890. As this plan was substantially adopted ten years ago the comparison of the total debt of 1880 with the total debt at the present time is both fair and accurate. From the returns it be seen that the de cade ending in 1SU0 state indebt edness has decreased, in round numbers, about $58,000,000. Mr. J. K. Upton, who is in charge of this work, in speaking of the decrease iu state indebtedness, states that in most ot the states reducing their indebtedness during the decade the reduc tion has been accomplished by applying to the extinguishment of their obligations the revenues not needed for current ex penses. In a few states, however, the ap parent decrease of the debt has arisen from the enforced reducing of the old debt into a new one, a discount varying from 25 to 50 per cent, taking from the amount of decrease in all the states the amount thus arising from the discount in refunding, and there is left as paid by cash $29,497, 700.19, and the geographical section, which includes the states named, instead of having a decrease of debt of $27. 593,587.36, as shown by tho statement, will have an increase of $929,577.S9. An examination of the statistics by states shows the treasuries of the west are in fully as good condition as those of other sections of the country. Kans.is luis cash and funds on hand to the amount of $57,225.77, more than double the amount on hand in 18S0. Missouri has $4,017,250 on hand, an in crease of more than a 1, 000,000 in the ten years. The bonded indebtedness of Mis souri is $S. 783,000 only about one-half of what it was in 18S0, and iu the ten years the bonded debt of Kansas has been re duced nearly $1,000,000, being now only $S0 1.000. Kansas has no floating debt, but Missouri's floating debt has increased about $50,000, being now $3 (574,000. Mis souri's net debt is. therefore, $8,430,749 and Kansas shows an excess of assets over debt of $4,921,572. THE DEFICIENCY BILL. The House Gets it all Ready for Final Action. Washington, August 7. In the house this morning a resolution was adopted calling on the postmaster general for copies of the agreement or transportation I of mail between the United States and j foreign countries, the conditions upon I which awards are made and tho rules of j of payment of the service. The house then went into committee of the whole (Mr. Payson of Illinois in the chair) on the gt neral deficiency bill. Mr. Hogers, of Arkansas, moved to strike out the clause appropriating $0,1500 to pay George A. Matthews in full for the unex pired term of the Fifty-first congress to which he was elected as a delegate from the territory of Dakota. Lost 03 to (54. Mr. Cluiiie, of California, offered an amendment granting an extra month's paj- to the employes of the senate and house. Agreed to 71 to 43. The bill "having been disposed of in the committee, all the amendments were agreed to save that granting an extra month's salary to senate and house em ployes, when the bill went over until to morrow. On motion of Mr. Dunnell, of Minnesota, a bill was passed applying the inter state commerce law to unincorporated ex press companies. The house then adjourned. PENSIONS FOR KANSANS.

Washington, August 7 At the request of the managers of the tariff bill, the Re publican members of the senate committee on commerce have agreed thit the con sideration of the river and harbor bill which was to have displaced the tariff bill tomorrow will be postponed until a fu'ure date, probably Friday of next week. The reason for this change of program is a belief that it will tend to hasten'the pro gress of the debate on the tariff bill, the Republicans arguing that the Democrats desire action on the" river and harbor bill earnestly enough to hurry the tariff bill out of the way. ALL BUT IRRIGATION AGREED TO. Washington, August 7. An agreement has been reached by the conference on the sundry civil appropriation bill upon every item of difference except that relating to the appropriation of $7"J0.O0O for continu ing the irrigation survey tinder the direc tion of the geological survey, which the senate struck out of the bill, and a further conference will be uecessary on this point. TvVO KANSAS POSTMASTERS. Washington, August 7. Two postmas ters were appointed for Kansas a follows. Essex. Garfield county, J. A. Durham, vice C. E. Dresser, resigned. Saffordville.Cha.se county, J. Moffitt7 vice Cynthia M. Bayles. resigned. m w OUTBREAK IX A MASSACHUSETTS STATE PRISON. Fifty Inmates 3Iake a Determined Break to Scale the Walls. Their Intentions Only Frustrated Prompt Action on the Part of the Sentrie3. by The Disturbance Quelled Without Loss of Life A Notorious Jail-bird the In stigatorA London Expert Pro nounces Electrocizing a Fail ure Dr. Southwick Says it is all Eight Crime News. Boston, Mass., August 7. For some time past trouble has been brewing at the Charleston state prison, having its origin in the objection of the inmates to submit to the eulorcement of the Berrillon system of measurements. The recent escape of Prisoner Moore and the unsucessful at tempt to escape of "Chicken" Walsh, a notorious convict, has served to keep matters unsettled, but for several days there has been no decided outbreak. This afternoon at 3 o'clock, however, the convicts in the shoe shop refused to obey the orders of their keeper and as if by some pre-arranged signal, all at once set up a terrific yell and missiles of every description were sent flying in all direc tions, the windows on the north and west side being fairly demolished. They made a rush for the door. A large express wag on standing in the inclosure outside was pushed toward the wall by a mob of over fifty infuriated convicts but in the excite ment it was capsized. This means of as sistance being gone, the crowd rushed for the various walls. Instantly the sentries began firing, at first to frighten the convicts, but later to kill. Other officers of the institution were quickly at hand and with drawn revolvers soon massed the gang in groups after a hard fight in which clubs were freely used and many of the convicts' heads were badly crushed. Word was quickly sent to police head quarters and in a short about 200 police officers detailed from the various stations reached the prison in patrol wagons. Upon their entering the yard they were met'With a cry of derision from the cou victs. who were firmly locked up in their cells. It is not thought that any of the prison ers were seriously wounded by the guards, but as the excitement has not yet fully subsided it is impossible to say what the result of the shooting was. The guards on the walls have been trebled and a large number of police are inns-cl in the yards and corridors, while fifty or more officers guard the streets leading to the prison. The outbreak today is said to have been instigated by "Chicken" Walsh. MURDER WILL OUT. Paul Hilter Makes a Confession in the Ish am Murder Case. Leavenworth, Kan August 7. Paul Hilter, the colored boy confined in the county j.ul, on the charge of murdering James Isham, at the Brighton coal mine, last Friday night, made a confession last night to Sheriff' Flora, in which he alleges the crime was committed by Mr. and Mrs. McBroou, the lather and mother of the mur.iere t man's deceased wife.? He claims that McBroon and his wife came to tho house and told of their intentions, threat ening to kill him if he disclosed anv of the facts. Hilter claims that after McBroon struck Isham with the ax and killed him he ordered Hilter to arouse the neighbor hood and tell that three masked men had committed the deed. McBroon was arrested yesterday and placed in jail, and his wife was arrested to day. McBroon is about o0 jears of age, and his wife slightly younger. As Hilter has already told two or three different stories about the crime, little laith is put in his last statement. Sheriff Flora is of the opinion that Hilter struck the fatal blow witli the ax, and was hired to do so by McBroon and wife. The murdered man's money, $050. was all found upon his person, and no explan ation can be obtained from Hilter as to the motive that prompted the brutal attack. A VERY LOW VOLTAGE. Auburn, X. Y August 7 Warden Durston stated this afternoon that tho re mains of Kemmler are still in the room in the prison where the autopsy was held yesterday. He has not decided where the iemains will be finally buried. The sub ject which continues to excite the greatest interest in connection with the execution is the record of the voltage of the shock which killed him- It has betn generalh supposed that the first shock was 1,.'J00 volts and the second between 1.500 and 2,0 0. Electrician Barnes, who was in the dynamo room, said to one of the physicians in attendance vesterday that at no time was the voltage more than 1,100 and that it frequently tell to b V Dr Daniels, of Buffalo, who performed the delicate work of removing the brain and spinal cord of the dead man at the autopsy, has gone home, taking with him parts of the spinal cord and other speci mens for experiment, MUCH SENSATIONAL TALK. Buffalo, X. Y August 7 Dr. A. P. Southwick, father of the electric execution law. said today in an interview "I feel just as I have "always felt on this matter. There is nothing against the system at all, and the fact is there has been a great deal of senseless sensational talk about the ex ecution. For instance, the big story in re gard to the sickening spectacle of froth, saliva, etc coming from Kemmler "s mouth is ridiculous. It was a perfectly natural thing, and was caused by the muscular contraction of the stomach. It was noth ing unusual at all. In fact, a party of ladies could sit in a room where an execu tion of this kind was going on and not see anything repulsive whatever. If the mis take of ordering off the current so quickly had not !xeu made thtre would have been none of this talk." REGARDED ASA FAILURE. London, August 7 Mr. Preece, chief electrician of the postofliee. in an interview today recalled his denouncing electricity as a means of execution before the British association in lssyf aj experience proving the difficulty and uncertainty of killing even a rabbit with the most powerful in duction coil ever made. Asked whether the most powerful Leyden battery would be effective to kill, he said he "did not think it would and the American plan was as good as any that could be nwde. a current system transmitting a large qtmn titv of electricity together with great in tensity. The great difficulty lay in the ab sence of accurate knowledge its to what amount of electricity would be certain to produce death without torture. From a scientific point of view, the Kenunter ex ecution was a failure oeyoad doubt; he suffered intense torture. SOLD LIQUOR TO 1NDIA.NS. Topeka. Kan., August 7 Charles Rob rer, Jacob Leon ami Fred Babooeker were arrested today upon varraats issued by .Commissioner Wazcner. charcixi2 them. each with having sold sold spirituous liquors to Indians of the Pottawatomie reservation. They were taken before Com missioner Wagener at his office and their bond for appearance placed at $500 each. Leon and Rolmn-,. furnished the bond. Babcocker fias'siot yet given bond, but has notified his superiors in Kansas City and he expects relief from that source. The penalty for selling liquor to wards of the United States is $300 fine and two years in the penitentiary. Several package houses closed voluntar ily today because of the passage of the Wilson bill. MURDERED BY ROBBERS. Cuchara, Col., August 7. Two robbers came in here last night and after looking around for an hour held up Harry Foster, a railroad man, at the point of the revolver and robbed him of his watch. They then fired at him but fortunately missed the mark. They then went to where M. Sieroud, another railroad man, was and working at his engine and secured his watch "and $20. They then shot him through the stomach and escaped to the foothills. Sieroud died half an hour later. Officers are in pursuit and if the men are arrested they will be lynched. AN UNDER SHERIFF ARRESTED. Topeka, Kan., August 7. Thomas T. Taylor was brought up from Guthrie yes terday by Deputy United States Marshal DeBostand taken before Judge Foster upon a charge of assault with intent to kill. Taylor is under sheriff of Guthrie county. He was tried upon the charge two sears ago, at the Wichita term, and con victed He applied for a new trial and a second trial was ordered, but he jumped his bond. Judge Foster has fixed his bond at $2,000 and he will be tried at the November term. TWO MEN BREAK JAIL. Marysville, Kan., August 7. Two men broke jail tonight. Ike Sims, colored, 5 feet, 10 inches high, about IS years of age, charged with housebreaking; William Nicely, 5teet, 8 inches high, light com plexion, about 18 years old, charged with grand larceny. NOT GEARY COUNTY ALTER ALL. Topeka, Kan., August 7. The people of Geary (Davis) county find themselves in a peculiar predicament, owing to the fact that their new name of Geary is not their name at all. It appears that the proposi tion was made in house bill 078, last ses sion of the legislature, to change the name of Davis county to Harrison county. The bill was amended so as to insert Geary in place of Harrison, and the bill so amended was sent to the senate. The senate amended the title of the bill so as to make it conform to the body, and sent the bill back for concurrence. Through soma oversight the house failed to concur, but sent the bill directly to the enrolling com mittee where it received the signature of the proper officers and was published with the laws. The question will be raised that the law is no law at all and inoperative. LEFT OUT IN THE COLD. Colorado Democrats Lose Their Political Organ. Denver, Col., August 7. The rumors regarding the sale of the Rocky Mountain News have come to an end. The News has changed hands. Colonel John Arkins, the nresident and manager of the company, received $300,000 in good American money, and with the $110,000 already paid this will make the $500,000 for which the adminis tration secures a weapon that will be used with crushing effect upon its enemies within and without the party. The syndicate which has purchased the News is composed of Senators Teller and Wolcott, with a number of their Colorado million aire friends ami of seveial widely known Washington men. prominent among whom is Assistant Postmaster Clarkson. Mr. Clarkson is to have absolute control of the paper and is expected to be in Denver in about a month. The syndicate has also purchased the Denver Times, the only evening paper in the city. It has cost $2!0,0u0 and will be used as an adjunct to its big morning brother. To the Democrats the loss is a heavy one. They have had a hard enough row to hoe in this part of the world for many years, but since Harrison took his seat they have begun to feel more hopeful. Tiie News h.-is been the only mouthpiece of the Democrats in a territory as large as all that part of the United State- east of the Mississippi river. They can not possibly replace it, and the outlook for them is most delight fully gloomy so far as can bo discovered from the outside. Senator Toller's time expires 0on and his successor will be chosen by the legisla ture which will be elected this fall. Sena tor Wolcott hates Hill most heartily. Hill is undoubtedly a candidate for the office. It was then quite natural that Teller and Wolcott should combine their torces to defeat the man who has always been a stumbling block in the way of the party and through whose agency the Democrats have gained tho few political victories that have fallen to their share in Colorado. At the same time they have the opportu nity that offered to establish a great Repub lican paperj directly at the center of the west, which is growing so last that its votes will soon have a powt rftil influence upon presidential campaigns. At this juncture the move is especially important. The establishment of a Republican organ with a national figure at its head, will be ucceptedjas evidence that this part of the countrv will receive especial attention. Clarkson at the seat of war will be m posi tion to handle the Republican forces to much greater advantage than ever before. The partv managers have keenly observed the tread'of affairsand have wisely decided to intrench themselves so that no efforts of the enemy will ever be able to dislodge them. So much for the national aspect of the deal. To ex-Senator Hill and his par tisans the change practically means polit ical extinction. ILLINOIS CROPS VERY POOR. Springfield, III., August 7. This bulletin is posted on the data returned by the press correspondents of the Illinois board of agriculture: The past month has been one of unusual drouth and high temperature and much damage is being done to growing crops of every description.

The special purpose of the meeting was to bring the knights iuto closer and more harmonious relations with the Farmers' Alliance, and to strengthen the political status of the two organizations. Part of the proceed ings were conducted secretly and part openly. At tho open meeting addresses were made by prominent labor champions, wiio criticisea botn Senators Ingalls and Plumb for their lack of interest in matters affecting the laboring classes. The speakers devoted their atten tion principally to the matter of organized labor, and illustrating the condition of the people who are oppiessed by the money power. They attributed to present state of affairs to needed legislation in regard to he control of monopolies and urg-d the audience to use the ballot in securing the desired reform. The gentlemen suggested better banking laws and favored govern mental control of railroads. The investment of foreign capital and alien laud lordism in this country were denounced as being the cause of a great deal of the suffering among laboriug men. Other events were also mentioned as affecting the condition of the oppressed people, and organization and judicious voting were advanced as the only relief. The Knights of Labor will support what is called the People's ticket in this state. ALL DEMOCRATS ELECTED. CiiATANOOGA, Tenu., August 7. The greatest excitement prevails here tonight on account of the result of the elec tion of county officers today. This coun ty, which gives ordinarily about 1,000 Republican majority, has today elected the entire Democratic ticket by majorities reaching as high as .7K). The change was brought about by the new registration law and the Australian system of ballots. Quite 50 per cent of the negro vote was lost by the Republicans in consequence of these "laws.

August ".The Northwestern Miller says as to the crop situation: "The spring wheat crop is now about all made. There is very little to fear from the future, except the possible frost in some northern sections, where the gram is not ripened. In nearly all parts, even of North Dakota, some fields are being harvested, while others in the vicinity mny uot be fit to cut jet for ten days. The grain not already matured geuerally promises well, as the weather for a few davs has been excellent for it. '"To get an estimate of the total yield, calculations have to be based on very different grounds from thoe of last year, and until the llnal result is made through actual tests of the spring, estimates will be necessarily very wide apart, even from the same localities. Elevator men. who are unusually well posted as to probabili ties along their several hues, generally ex pect to handle more wheat than a year ago. A few only talk of anything less than last year." If results wero to Iks figured on their expectations, there would be more wheat in the northwest than a year ago, though the grade will unques tionably be lower. In the southern part of Minnesota and Dakota very fair results are shown in all but a few counties of each. "Tho railroad management of all the principal linos running north through those parts estimate more wheat to be hauled by their lines thnn lat year. And they hauled more last year than in any preceding year of .several. A grent deal of damage has been done by heat in all parts of the northwest and the prospective yield of six weeks ago has been cut down a very large per cent. There is very great differ ence in estimates, owing to the different methods of calculating. Where the pros pect has thus been cut down according to reports from some locality, say 50 per cent, some people will call the remainder half an average crop, and others half of what had been previously expected, mak ing very different results." THE FLOUR OUTPUf. The flour output for the lat week fell somewhat short of the figures sot for it on Wwlnesdny. Total flour production for the week ending Saturday was loG,470 bar rels, averaging ."(5,075 Iwirrels daily, against lliViOO barrels the week before and 11!),050 barrels for the corresponding time in 18S9, and 15(5 400 barrels in lSSS Low water with its manifold trials and tribulations is agams upon the mills and steam is being once more put into use. There were seventeen mills running yes terday, producing at the rate of probably 21,500 barrelspurtwciity-fourhours. While some firms have experienced a fair demand for patents during the past week, tho ad vance in prices necessitated by the upward course of wheat has checked business. The majontv of the mills have found it wctM snrv to" add 20 to ."50 cents to their quota tions. Some domestic sales of bakers are reported at H.20ti,f-l.'S per barrel hre. The export market is quiet and low. MORE RECORDS SMASHED. Two-Year-Old Pacing and Barnhart Time Lowered. Independence. la., August 7.

Receipts of Live Stock at the Union Stock Yards during the past 24 hours-675 cattle, 38 calves, 2,210 hogs. Ship ments 575 cattle. The receipts -were composed largely of through cattle which were fed and watered here but none of them changed hands. There was about 100 head of native cattle on the market and all good grades found ready sales at prices fully 10 to 15 cents higher than Tuesday. There is no im provement in thin stuff which is very slow sale. Kansas City is getting rid of much of the stale stock they had on hand and there seems to be a better demand and higher prices on all the markets for good to fat cattle. The supply of hogs was again liberal. The market opened 5 to 1 cents lower than yesterday. The buyers didn't take hold very strong which caused the market to drag all day. The buyers tried to ham mer prices all day, but salesmen wouldn't stand too much of it. The most of the hogs were run very uneven. A great many rough sows included, but they were cut out and arc a drug on the market. One of the speculators offered 1 cents for a bunch of them. Very little demand for pigs and singers and S3 00 was top on best grades today. Several car loads carried over. WIOHITA LIVE STOCK MARKET. Wichita, Kan.. Atizust7. CATTLE.

Louis Quinlan is a jolly little fellow only 10 mouths old, who has just made tho voy nge from Belfast to New York to meet his mother. A year ago little Louis' father died, and last September his mother came to America to aid her two eldest daughters in building up a home. They worried about LOUIS QUINLAN. the little one so far away, and rejoiced when a chance camo for his making the journey that should place him once more under maternal care. He sailed in charge of a good naturcd female unmigrant, who gave him every attention. While waiting his mother's arrival at the Barge office in Now York city Louis got to be on oxcellen terms with the employes, and thoy expend ed a neat sum in "togging"' him out with a new lace slip, a lace cap and a pair of tan colored 6hocs. "When thebaby's sisters and mother took him away the immigrants gathered on the Bactery lawn and gave their tiny fellow traveler a rousing cheer of farewell, and wished him good luck in half a dozen languages.

It contains 5.000 apricot tre. 37,000 peach trees, 3,000 plum trees, 5.000 miscellaneous fruit trees and 35,000 grape vines Seven thousand persons have been em ployed in getting out Mr. Stanley's new book and more than 600 tons of pi.per have already been nsed in England. The En glish edition alone required 240 tons of paper. The day of paper car wheels for railroad cars is passing. The chief reason is alleged to be that the iron wheels not only last longer than the paper ones, bat are cheaper as well, costing about one-sixth as much as the paper wheels. A system of steno-telegrapby has been shown to the chamber of deputies by which shorthand report of speeches can be sent any distance as they come from the sten ographer. The speed of this instrument is also said to be unparalleled. There is a large farm in Mississippi in which there is only one whip, and that is not used.

Galleries of Grinning Monks in Serried Banks standing or Leaning- Against Each Other A 3Ian Locked in the Place. "Corpse worship" takes a very strange form in thecemerery of the Capjracini 3t Palermo. It ha& been found that tho earth of this cemetery--powdered tuff rock of some sort has the power to hasten the process ,of decomposition, so that in a year orless nothing remains of bodies buried there but skin and bone, some of tho articular attachments, and often the hair. Atthix stage they are some what like rSimmies. To be buriod in the Cappncjni is accounted a privilege, as Is also the subsequent exhumation and station in the "galloies." The mum mies, being disinterred, are clothed by the "piety" of their families; and so long as a yearly sum is paid for the honor they are .placed" among the ghastKest com pany by which I ever found myself sur rounded. A monk from the adjoining convent leads the way, and the visitor descends a broad flight of stairs into well lit corridors cut out of the solid rock. Goethe saw these galleries long ago, and said the live tuff had been hewn out with fine architect ural effect." The dead in those days reposed in"niches,ias they did in the ancient Greek tombs found in Sicily or the Roman co lumbarii. Perhaps in modern times there was no more room for thus "pigeon hol ing" the dead. Perhaps it was felt to be better that they should hold their leveo standing right and left of the passage for so they are posed today. (Yanr sleeve brushes their costumes aimost inevitably as you move along.) To these grim corri dors cooae the sorrowing survivors, moved by the strangest form of the cult of the corpse! And what do they see? TIERS OF DEAD MONKS. "These," said my guide, "are the monks all these in both these corridors," and wo crossed the Capuchins' quarter into that of the goneral public. "These," he said again, "are tho men." (Great heaven! what men!) "Mostly people choose to have our monks' habit for the bodies after they are exhumed." In serried ranks all down the galleries, standing or leaning against each other, are these parodies of humanity. They lie tier above tier, too, as if in tho berths of "The Phantom Ship." They stand in groups aloft on brackets, or sin gly hung against the upper parts of tho wall. Some keep their coffins, but a glaz ed or wired side or lid shows you another version of the same grim spectacle. Few of the men are clothed in nnything but tho monks' uniform. Bt by and by you feel that finery adds another element of grim irony to the show. "This is the quarter of the priests," said my monk. "That is a Greek priest with all the gold on his vest ments, and the strange cap a Catholic Greek. And the red ones belonged to the cathedral. Yes, the purple cassock is a canon." He smiled and added, "Tho priests here don't look better than the rest of us." He was pleased. I wondered that pleasure could visit tho human mind in such surroundings. Tho biretti of tho priests are sometimes tilted tipsily over the noseless faces, sometimes jauntily over tho eyeless orbits. Somo bodies have been regularly embalmed. My monk said: "See, his lips are red. Tho color is bright in his cheeks. Ah, I cannot tell you if those are glass eyes." These poor shades aro ticketed, like tho blind beggars who parade the streots of London, and their names and death dates figure on their placards. You are invited to admire Signor Giuseppi Cuccio's fine head of hair; the half of a beard still adhering to this other defunct Palermitan; an eyebrow here, a fragment of a mustache there as you move along. A Frenchman said those corpses looked to him as if they were writhing in fierce pain; would presently jabber at him or ahriek; that they huddled together for fear or helplessness! They struck me diffcrentr ly. The unsparing display of teeth, tho wide open mouths made for a weak, wild hilarity. They were far from being nil alike. One hollow cheeked figure, with gray flowing locks, was exactly like an ab ject church door beggar still above ground and whining in Palermo. GHASTLY FEMALE BODIES. Undoubtedly the ugliest of the sights Is the ladies' gallery. Corpse worship hero has prompted freaks of burlesque milli nery, such as the trimming of the vacant skulls with deep frills of lace. One poor shade lay in purple silk. A young lady's mummy was adorned with u silver crown, fantastic shoes, open work stockings and white kid gloves! A princess among tho most recent of the interments lay in her coffin, which bore many artificial garlands and yards of much mottoed funereal rib bon, and I know not what other offerings besides. On All Souls' day the dead in the Cappucini may be said to bold- grewsome sort of reception, but the richer class, whose "dear departed" stand there, "fre quent" tho cemetery at all seasons. Imagine coming to pay your devoirs to the ladies with whom you used to dance; to your hostesses of former years, to tho members of your family, to the wife of your bosom; and being received by these phantoms oi grizzly bone! TImso bedizened skeletons! These rag and bone things, aping humanity! It is too boxriblo! Yet there ore Palermitans who find a melan choly pleasure, some a certain consolation, a fow a terrible fascination, in the rehes of their dead preserved in this cemetcryl But not all the inhabitanta approve of tbia mode of sepulture. The edict has gone forth that there are to be no more ratcr menta at tho CappucinL "Wc, ourselves, must go row," said my monk guide rue fully, "up there, to the Canrpo Santo!" On certain fete days these "catacombs" arc open to nil corners. A man once strayed in hero and full asleep. At night the por ter locked up without noticing the nicepcr. Awaicaing sober, with tho early light, tie horror of his sumiundiagj seized upon the man. He ran about trifily among th dead. He shrieked, but ncraae, even those in the convent, couH hear htm. The earli est passers by found hfcn rrmgrnr; conrnl rfvcly to the bxxtt of the entrance gste. They could hardly loose his hold. He wa ESaxk ms-dV-Cor. Pall Mall Gazette. STRAY 5ITS.

There are two stores on East Douglas that want to mark their clothing down but know from past experience that it won't pay. No. 1 put a suit in the window marked live off. No. 2 the next day has the same suit marked ton off. No one buys either day, waiting for the lowest i tit, and like a great many who wait for the lowest rate to go cast, wait until the rates are restored and do not get to go at all. A CHILD IS BORN. Late last evening Dr. Minnick reported that Mrs. Ed Hedger had presented her husband with a beautiful baby girl. The little one at once assumed the most im portant place in the household and occu pies it with the utmost grace. The varying beauties of pink and white are in rivalry; one instant the little stranger assumes the dignity of snowy whiteness and the next is suffused with the loving blushes of the morning. Those matchless blue eyes open on a strange world and laughingly gaze on all it con tains. How much is learned in that little time, she tires and baby sleeps. Happy child, all her wants are satisfied for she only waP to b- 1 ,VN77jT?jffi. UN-v NT'JVy For the Eagle. THEV THINK. They think because they see me smile That I have never wept; That sorrow's dark and bitter tide Ne'er o'er my heart has swept But, ah! they cannot lift the veil And read the untold woe That's hidden In this heart of mine From mortals here below. They think when I am light and gay. And smiles are on my lips. That from the cup of human life I naught but joy have sipped. They think not that its bitterest dregs By mo have o'er been drained. Or that upon my weary way So few bright ray have beamed. They think when they hear my merry laugh It comes from a merry heart; That the joyous songs I sometimes sing From a happy fount must start. But, ah! they do not see the tear That's welling up the while. Or the pain that shoots athwart the face 'TIs covered with a smile. Ah! could we read each heart we meet In the busy throng of life. With how many different colorings Would tho picture soon be rife. A lesson by It we would learn, And this would be a part: That a smiling face is not always A true Index of the heart. Wichita, Kan., Aug. 5. Cortland bell. K. P. FERRIS' CIKCUXiATOR, Mr. R. P. Ferris of South Washington avenue has applied for a patent on his cir culator, which promises to create some ex citement in the engineering world. Its purpose is to keep the water in a horizon tal boiler in motion, and thus far is the only mechanical contrivance that has ever been invented that would successfally ac complish this work. Various devices have been tried in the way of steam jets, but they were all failures because only a par tial movement was kept up. One of the great difficulties with a hori zontal boiler is the frequency with which it must be washed out in order to make it last. A sediment of lime settles on the SECTION OF BOILER SHOWING CIRCULATOR, bottom forming a cake, thus keeping the water from actual contact with the iron. As a natural consequence the fire soon burns tho iron and in a very shorttime the boiler is ruined. By Mr. Ferris' invention a horizontal stationary boiler need never be cleaned if ordinarily clean water is used. The only cleaning that will ever be necessary is the removal of the mud drum The circulator as shown in the illustration runs along the bottom of the boiler under neath the Hues. It is a spiral screw similar to a conveyor screw used in elevators and sugar houses but naturally very light not being subjected to any great strain. As it revolves the water is forced to the far end of the boiler when it must go to the surface creating a current in the opposite direction on the top of the boiler which in its natural course descends again and cornea within the influence of the circulator. This continuous current in the bottom of the boiler prevents any sediment or lime from sticking to the boiler and naturally settles on the mud drum which is situated at the far end and nun 1ia nilv rlp.nnpil Sp.vnral evnerts have seen it work and assure Mr. Ferris that lie has a good thing. One of the circulators is at present in operation at the power house of the Wichita Electric Street Railway company at Davidson's park and is giving excellent satisfaction. The shaft of the circulator runs through the end of the boiler and is packed the same as a piston rod might be. On the end of it is a pully or sprokct and a chain belt attached to the engine revolves it at any desired speed. A very slow and uniform motion is all that is necessary to do the work but tho rapidity cuts no important figure. Mr. Ferris does not propose to sell his patent but will introduce it first into the boilers of his own manufacture. "WHAT'S IN A NAME. A peculiar question in names was brought out in Justiee Keenan's court the other day. A Mr. Albert, who was born in France, lost his father twhilo quite young His mother afterwards married a Mr. Au bin and according to French usage his name was legally changed by circum stances to Mr. Albert-Aubin. He came to America bearing that name and enlisted in the army. They havo no time to spare there and called him simply Aubin. This name followed him after the war and he simply accepted it and did business tinder it. He was married at this time and a son born who of course was Christened Aubin. Later on in order to protect a legacy in France it was necessary for Mr. Aubin to establish his identy and for that purpose took legal proceedings in St. Louis to prove that ho was really Mr. Albert and of course in order not to appear to be going under an alias had to adopt the name for all purposes. After this another son was born and of course Christened Albert. One of the attorneys in the case has not got the matter straight in his mind yet. THE ROCK ISLAND OFFICIAL The Woman's Relief Corps of the G. A. R. leaves Wichita this morning for the en campment, arriving iu Boston on Monday morning via Chicago and Niagara.

A Called Session to Levy the Tax for General Purposes for the Ensnlns Fiscal Year, and Other Business. The city council met last night at eight o'clock in special called session. Mayor Clement was in the chair and Messrs. Brown. Johnson, Martin, Burkeridge, Schitzler, McKee, Mossbacker, Carson, Williams, Caswell and Glaze were present. The mayor first read the call, it being for the purpose of issuing the tax levy for general purposes for the fiscal year, and considering the levying of a special tax to meet the first installment due on the Market street and First street pavement, together with the interest. Ordinance 911 was then repealed and on motion an ordi nance providing for the issuing of internal improvement bonds was placed upon its passage, and adopted. On mtion an ordinance providing for the levy of a tax to retire the first install ment of bonds due on the Market street pavement and First street pavement was placed upon its passage and adopted; the first installment being ten per cent of the cost. The ordinance provides for the fol lowing levy on each lot irrespective of im provements based upon the special assess ment for paving purposes: English to William, Prin. .0059 English to William, Int... .004?2 Total .01052 William to Douglas 00272 William to Douglas 0021TG Total .004S96 Douglas to First 00214 Douglas to First 031712 Total .003S52 Second to Third 00S69 Second to Third 00G932 Total .012823 Third to Central 00977 Third to Central 006932 Total .016722 Central to Elm 00973 Central to Elm 0077S4 Total .017514 First to Second 005G5 First to Second 004132 Total .009297 First St., Main to Market. .00100S First St., Main to Market. .00S064 Total .009072 The tax levy for general purposes being in order, the ordinance providing for a levy of 14.4 mills was placed upon its pas sage. Mr. Buckeridge. with his char acteristic earnestness, spoke a length upon the subject and recommended reducing expenses, but was still willing to favor a levy of 14 mills. During his address he quoted from a memorandum a list of the principal expenses aud suggested some re ductions. The clerk then read an estimate upon which the finance committee based the re quirements of the coming year. The es timate included the general expenses of the city with a very conservative allow ance for incidentals. On roll call the or dinance passed with a vote of 11 in affirm ative. The levy is as follows: General revenue 6 mills General improvement 5 Interest coupons 1 4-10 Hydrait rentals 2 Total 14 4-10 The following rough estimate served as a guide for the finance committee to base a levy upon. These amounts as a matter of course will vary and it is hoped that they are all well on the safe side: Advertising 5 1,000 Elections 3,000 Salaries, etc 10,000 Fire 20,000 Water 19,000 Franchise and license 500 Health 4,000 Lighting 20,000 Parks, etc 4.500 Police and prisons 20,000 Public buildings and scales 3,000 Public improvements 20,0'JO Total $125,000 No further business coming within the scone of the call the meeting adjourned. THE NORMAL INSTITUTE. Yesterday was an unusually busy day at the institute and a great amount of work was put behind the classes, but only open ed up a more extensive field to the view which must be waded into at once. Miss Bryson's class spent the greater part of the day in mastering the sound of IT. The task seems quite simple until one learns how much there is in it. Numerous examples were given to illustrate the vari ous points and the dictionary introduced to substantiate the lesson. The lecture of yesterday by Dr. W. A. Minick on the subject of the heart was listened to with interest by over one hun dred persons. Being disappointed in se curing the actual heart, the lecturer pro ceeded to show from charts and manikin the size, shape, structure, divisions, valves and action of the heart. He also spoke in cidentally of its circulation. In reply to questions the doctor stated how circula tion is maintained previous to birth, how the substance of the heart and lungs re ceive nourishment, why different walls of the heart are of unequal thickness, etc. A young man who asked if there was such a thing as change of heart was ad vised to ask a young lady. The psychology "A" recitation was con ducted yesterday by Miss Xason. The topic of the lesson was judgment and the recitation was opened by Mr. Culter giv ing a definition of judgment. After some discussion it was decided that there was no well defined lined between a judgment and a conclusion. Quality and quantity were discussed, but in the midst of the in teresting recitation the bell rang, calling the teachers elsewhere. The subject of water power was the one considered by tho natural philosophy class. Prof. Xaylor gave a very nice illustration of the two kinds of power by referring to the Johnstown flood of 'S9. This morning the book-keeping class took a brief reviewof their work for the purpose of making out a first trial balance. If the law of gravitation could extend far enough to cover the value of the debit and credit columns how rapidly one ide would have gone down. However, the errors were confined to the ledger and were the result of too rapid work, so they said. The main feature of the day was the lec ture in the evening by Prof. Bloss, of To peka.who took for his subject "Our civiliz ation dependent npon Christianity and science." The speaker made his points in a concise way and every conclusion drawn was of some practical way. The lecture was calculated to be practical and yet was delivered in a pleasing and eloquent man ner. All present found that the evening had been pleasingly and profitably spent. NOTES. Yesterday's lecture on the heart opened up a field for some very bad jokes. Xo one has been killed yet. Mr. Snmmers had charge of the gram mar class for ten minutes subject, pro nouns, definitions and classics. Remainder of time devoted to general discussion. Very satisfactory drill on stress of voice was the reading exercise. It is said the classes in grammar aad reading are too large. The last day of the course will be devoted to criticising the newspapers. Mrs. Charles Bitting entertained last evening in honor of Mis Clara Y. Cleaver, of Ashland, Penn. Refreshment and r variety of summer pastimes constituted the program of a most enjoyable evening. THE RUNAWAYS TAKEN BACK HOME. The two young boys, Weldon Kintzly and Rodda Cloud, who Tan away from Herrington on Wednesday were taken back home yesterday morning. Mr. Kintzly, the father of the younger one, came for them. In an interview he said he could not account for the queer freak the boys had taken and nothing more un expected could have happened. He fancied their minds must have been fired by sensa tional reading matter, although they had shown no symptoms of wanting to become famous scouts before. With regard to the money he said he believed the boy looked upon that as his own, but he certainly did not feel at liberty to take it and use it for any purpose without consulting him. REPUBLICAN PRIMARIES. A Quiet Day and Little Disposition Shown to Contest. The day at the polls was unusually quiet, and no disposition was shown to make any contest. A compromise settled with ease all differences, and business was scarcely interfered with.

Im portant business. The delegation of the Sixth ward are re quested to meet at the Richey house this, Friday evening, at 8 o'clock. Mr. G. Minturn Worden. representing the Lozier Yost bicycle manufacturing company of Toledo, Ohio, arrived in tho city last evening. Mr. Worden has ridden upwards of 6,000 miles and his journey is only began. From here he goes to tho territory and thence to Niagara. The denartment brought out the Ahrens steamer yesterday to test two thousand feet of new hose. It would not begin to stand the test and will all be returned to the manufacturer to be substituted by a better quality. The test was as good as a rain for one block of Market street. THE SILK COLONY. Miss Palmer, the prime moverin the silk colony, returned to the city yesterday from Medicine Lodge to answer the charge of embezzling the funds of the colony. She gave a bond of ?300 for her appearance to day. It is likely the case will be continued over until next week iu order to learn the feeling and secure the evidence of all the important members of the colony. In an interview Miss Palmer said she could say but little for the reason that she did not know exactly what she was accused of. She expected that many of members were dissatisfied with the way things had been managed, but it was all unavoidable and would be fully explained in good time. So far as embezzlement was concerned she said that was all nonsense and did not give her a moment's care but she was sorry the colony had not avoided many of the dnh cnlties that had from time to time beset them. In the end the matter will all bo satisfactorily arranged, she said, and "I will be vindicated." She will be arraigned before Squire Mos ley this morning but, as before stated, the prosecution will likely ask for a continu ance. JIUSICAL. LITERARY. SOCIAL, ETC On Wednesday evening of next week the South Emporia avenue M. E. church in tends to give a lawn sociaL The program has been prepared well in advance and it is predicted that it will be a banner occa sion. There will be no scarcity of seats this time and ample provision will be made to accommodate 2,000 persons. The main feature of the program will be the literary half, and a rare treat is promised. The second feature will be the musical quarter, and the best musicians in the city will be on hand assisted by two performers of con siderable note from the east. Lastly, bat not to be overlooked, will be the social fea ture, including ice cream aad other re freshments, which will oonstitnte the re maining quarter of the program. Under the head of social severs very great sur prises have been arrariged, and although everybody thinks they know all about it some one" will be very much swrprfced, so it is said. Everybody is invitwi to be pres ent and participate in the pleasure of the occasion. CARELESS DRIVING. Scarcely a day passes that there is not a narrow escape from careless driving, and the police intend to make examples of some of the worst cases. If parties who think they own the street because they are in a buggy would look up the law on the subject they would probably bo more care ful than they are. A well known physi cian on Tuesday came within and ace of running over a baby in its carriage at the corner of Main aud Douglas. The nurse was trying to cross and teams and differ ent obstructions confused her, but that would have been no excuse for killing that child. It is customary to come as near running over pedestrians as passible, especially ladies who cannot protect themselves, and then if the mud or dust from the vehicle happens to soil their dress it is a subject for amusement. The main complaint is not against boys or roughs but against men that one would snppose would be above such things. No reference seems to be made to the hack drivers, for although they are reckless enough one can depend somewhat upon their skill, but buggies that are driven by men having less sense than the animals they drive. This is about tho way matters are dished up two or three times of an evening by people who are the victims of recklessness which manifests itself in a hundred different ways. It was only a few evenings ago that a young lady on horseback came very near being thrown. She had stopped ou the corner to speak with a friend and a buggy turned so close as to strike the hind quarters of her horse, and the result can be easily imagined. THE COURTS. DISTRICT COURT. McKinley, Handley et al vs. M. B. Car vin, judgment for plaintiff vs Car'iu for $590.25. BelviaM. Smith sues her hus band, Charles Smith, for a legal separ ation, setting forth as causes of action, neglect, failure to provide, drunkenness, cruelty, abuse, assault, threatening to kill and a few other little things. The peti tioner further asks for $50 per month dur ing the suit and $500 alimony as a part of her plea. Tho district court will ba iu session again today for the purpose of winding up the term's work. FROBATE COURT. Administrator to the estate of Wm.

The case of Algaier pending in Justice Keenan's court, charged with em bezzlement, was continued until today ou account of political ex citement. Before Squire Moseley tho case of John Doe, alias Dick Pike, charged with the theft of 5, was transferred to Judge Museller. The case of Maggie J. Palmer will be called today in this court. In the meantime the defendant gave $300 bonds for her appearance. Justice Barrett was occupied with his usual round of civil work yesterda y. POLICE COURT. Tho usual serenity of tho police court was disturbed yesterday by more than tho usual number of arrests as shown by the docket. Richard Pike was arrested on a state warrant charged with stealing a $5 bill; not being able to furnish a ?250 bond he was committed. R. Snodgrass paid $50 on a vagrancy charge. John Jones paid the same amount on the same charge, tak ing a receipt on tho assumed names. Frank James was fined $1 for leaving team un hitched. Jim Thomson, an all round vag and generally N. G., was arrested aud held for further consideration. Two young men arrested on the charge of petty lar ceny, were discharged by the court, no one appearing to prosecute. Col. Sincli for ob vious reasons was a dead drunk and dead broke. His fine was assessed at $7.50 and he was doomed to the cooler until such time as outraged law was fully appeased. He said no one could get the best of him and thus far no one has been found who is willing to take issue with him on that question. dAUuriTLRS OF EVE Marie Bashkirtsefr once said that a girl should not wear-jewelry becnusoBbe should hare no rivals to her eyes.
