"OLD AXSC" WAS I1IGUT. A Ball Droppi'd From the Top of Wasti-itif-ton -Monuiiieiit us Caught Washington, Aug. 27. Hilly Schriver, the "star" catcher of the Chicago base ball club ha caught a. ball thrown from the top of the Washington monument, thus performing a feat which ha never before been accomplished. Nearly all of the prominent bail pi tyera who have visited Washington since the shaft was erected have tried to do what Schriver did It was generally supposed it was be yond any man' power to eidcli a bail thrown Irom such a height. Year after year, as regularly as the buys would come from the Garden City to 1 up the local cluti, a controversy would arise be tween "Pap" Anson an 1 II. I. Burney, chief clerk of the Arlington. Burney wiis wont to iifSrm that no basfcballiet oa earth ever had or ever could catch h reg ulation ball that was toiled from one of the window of the Washington i-iauu-ment. Had not Paul Hines. Charley Suider, Buck Ilwing, IJaru.e Richardson and other tried it in days of yore with dire failure? It was not in mortal man, de clared Clerk Burney, to ht li fast to a ball that dropped five hundred feet in sheer apace. In the Urst place tte height was too great to see tiie descending fcphere and even if the eye "ijiinj psed" it coming through the ether the tremendous force with which it would strike the out stretched hands would break every bone in the lingers and relegate the rash catcher who essayed the feat froui the ball tield forever. Anson ever stoutly maintained the contrary. lie vowed the thing could be done. The years went by an 1 the argument was renewed each season, but no trial was ever made until yesterd .y. Schriver was consulted on the subject aud ex pressed his willingness to undertake the task. A littbi party was made up aud proceeded to the monument. The whole crowd would have tiot two to o ie on hi failing aud Schriver became rather faint hearted. Af.er Griffith and Ilu'chinson had got to the top ami the formt r had tossed the ball from tiie north window, t?cnriver' nerve fors ok him and be m tde uo effort to catch it. But instead of boring a hole teu feet deepi in mother earth as some said it would d j, tie leather glotn bounded up it bout as hijju as it would from an average hard s'rike, but no higher. This encouraged chrver won derfully, and he resolved ihdt the catch was no .irreat shakes alter all. The signal was given from ubovo and again the ball was j itched forth, Schri ver catehintr it fair and .-"..jiiure atn.d ;iie api luuse of the st fc a'ots. lie did not get a chance to repeat the uc, for by t his tiiii e the nioti-unen; "cu-V got onto the iiaa.a, at: 1 was his; lily iu Jiiruuut tli.it anv such iui'air h-d o' curred lie talked of Hi'i-.t. but was lin.iliy cajole 1 into a mote nrtiubh- ten. per at-.d the party came up town joyou.-ly wi;U Bihy tr :'irtver.

Forest Fire Cause Luke Mlc-hignu to lie Enveloped In Fog. Chicago, Au. 27. Lake Michigan has been completely enveloped by a thick cloud of smoke, caused by forest fires in Wisconsin and northern Michi gan for the past three days, that limited the range of vision to a quarter of a mile in any direction. Through thi the sun shone like a ball of lire, aud the tooting of the fog signal out on the exterior breakwater sounded monotonously at short intervals. Navigation on the lake wa attended with considerable danger, a captain of Bteamers could not see other boat half a dozen leuglhs ahead, and had to run slowly and sound the fog signal constantly. All boats in arriving were several hours late, aud tonight there were many inquiries for steamers which were due but stiil groping around on the lake. L ike captains after comparing note came to the conclusion that this was the thickest smoke ou thi end of the lake from forest tires that they had known for several year. THE STATE'S INSANE CHILD Are No leu-turei to ltt Taktin tu Prevtiut 1'urtlj.er Scandal The friend of Dr. J. 11. McCasey who is still iu charge of the state insane asy lum, a superintendent, sny there have been other infant burn in the institution and the birth announced ou Saturday is not the first event of the kind at the asvlum. It is true hat other infant have been, bora in the asylum, but their mother had lioen in tne institution but a few month each and this is the tirst child born in a stale institution which i in re ality a child of the state. With incompetent olUcials in chtirge of a yiate institution of this kind it. may often happen that the sexes are allowed to got. together. What n prospect for the people all over the state wuo have female relatives incarcerated in the iu tsaue iisyiutn. At the I ud. una state insane asylum, tt Indianapolis, which is considered one of the best insti u'lons for the insane in the -unify, the gene are kept apart. 'ihe asj lutn L d.w.'ed into two depart ments, oiie for the men and the other for tiiei women, and the buiiduiirs are a quar ter o a mile apart, Kithouih they are both under the s..me management, in thit asylum irf nits are never born to the inmate to become au additional charge upon t he slate. If Kansas cannot get rid of the Doctor McCaseys and the Doctor Pdchers in her state institutions, the state board of char ities should ut least adopt seme measure to prevent further scandal of thi kind. Kansas cow has two large, fully equip ped asylums for the insane, the one here and asuiher at Osa u atomie. The state board of charitie might change the present system of handling the insane patients, and send all the men to one and all the women to the other institution.

The strike com missioners devoted a large share cf their session today to the examination of Man ager II F. Bryant of the bank at Pull man. Mr. Bryant appeared with a yrd or two of typewritten statistic, but si tbs requestof Commissioner Keruau laid tii statement aside and answered questions. Ha was particular to state ttint he was not an' -employe of the Pullman company, a th brink was owned by the Pullman Southern Cr company, but later admitted that tha lat ter company is controlled by th Palaco Car company Mr. Bryaut said that th capital stock of the bank is f 100,000, and that la July, 1893. the deposits amounted to about $058, 00, 2,4.3 of the depositor at that time were Pullman employes, their ac counts averaging 24j. In July, 1 the deposits amounted to $45J.uoo, wim only 1,414 employes' accuuuU which averaged .$270. The wiluess said that the Pullinau workmen were paid in checks. That ench month they were given two checks if they rented company dwellings, one representing the amount of rvnt du aud the other the balance Irt wages earned. Mr. Bryant was questioned sharply re garding this system of payiug but em phatically stated that there was nothing compulsory about the men payiug the.r reut. "The checks are only made for the con venience of the men and they may or may not indorse tha reut check back to the company a they choose." "It is just a sort of gentle reminder that the rent is duet" suggested Com missioner Kernan. "It is simply for the men's conven ience," persisted the witness. The bauk manager was then rigidly examined as to the method of the com pany for collecting back rent. Mr. Bryant was asked about the cm of Jennie Curtis, a Pullman employe, who had claimed that she had bewn Com pelled to pay back rent due. Th wit ness said ihe company had not compelled Miss Curtis to pay the rent, but admitted that she had done so. Rev. C. H. Eaton of the church of the Paternity of New York, surprised tho spectators by his testimony. lie asserted that II. reports of suffering at Pullman had beeu grossly exaggerated. He had vlsitad fortv houses, he said, and found no des titution aud no distress. 'I he men had told him that thty hal no real grievances, he declared, uud had no real cause for striking. Dr. Eaton d.d uot believe that compuisory arbitra tion would prevent strikes, and gave as his reason that mi side of such coutrovrsien, the laboring men. were not resoonsibl and thiit nv agreement that might Le reached would be liable to violation. The clergyman stud that th propr method to prevent trikos was io build up aud improve the character of tb working man. lie had found Pullman, lie said, a very satisfactory plat In that regard, as men's characters there wen under good influence.

ALTERNATE PAGE FOLLOWS STATE JOTJRXAL. MONDAY EVENING. AUGUST 27. 1891. PLAYED TWO ROLES. TlieCriminal Career of a Chicago an Named GarJon. An Insurance Adjuster in Day Time a Thief at Nisrht. LIKED THE MYSTERY. Ho Enjoyed the Excitement of a Criminal's Life. Chicago. Aug-. 27. Tins man giving his name as Gordon who participated In the Detrfield holdup aod subse quent stirring- events last Friday Pig-lit and Saturday mo-nin and who was identified as Billy Williams, a well kngwn character on the Pad 2a coast, was ajaia identified yesterday by responsible parties as II. J Gris wold, a well-to-do loct.1 inspector of the Manchester Assurt.dee company. Griswold's father is sail to be a trav eling inspector of the Home Fire In surance compiay of New York, and resides in that city. The people making- the identification are officials of the Manchester Assurance company and they maintain they are not mis taken. It appears to be a case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde. Griswold had no need to steal or thoot his fellow men, tut he did it ap parently because he loved the mys tery and the excitement of such a life. Crime has apparently become a pas time with him, and he is supposed to have found an apt pupil in Lake, a poor, unemployed laborer. During1 the daytime Griswold filled the im portant position of lre risk inspector, which he used as a clcak for his ma rauding excursions during the night. About five years ago Griswold mar ried a country girl and she became Mrs. Gordon, not Gr.swold. Since then they have lived in various parts of Chicag-o, their last residence being at 13 Curtis street. To-day the timid frightened wife called at the police station and grave her mrae as Gordon, faying- she nover knew her husband by any other. It is believed that the police depart ment, with the help of the railroad companies, are running- to earth in this dual arrest a long train of depre dations of which Griswold is the cen ter. The story of Griswold's life so far as known is unique. Born almost tvventy-eig-ht years a?o, hi father tried to g-ive him a fair education, but the boy's instincts were wild and law less, lie eventually disappeared from home, and was next heard of in the AVest as a cowboy and ranchman. After several years of adventurous life in California. Oregon and Idaho, he came to Illinois and secured employment as brakjaian at Rock Island, 111. While thoro he mavried and the influence of his wife caused him to lead a: quieter life. His father noting- the improvement in his be havoir. used his induence to secure the son a position with the local oGice of the Manchester Assurance Insurance company. Young- Griswold grew proficient in his new position, and s ion drew a handsome salary. It appears, however, the reforma tion was not complete, but just when Griswold be3an his double career while in the employment of the as surance company is net known. Fur ther disclosures are expected at the inquest over the remains of Detective Owens, which has bet n postponed for a week to. permit the police to make a full investigation of Griswold's and Lake's careers. William Lake, who was desperately wounded in the raid, was feeling bet ter. It is said he comas of a good fam ily and that his father is William Lake of Oswego, N. Y., a traveling man for a new York paper. Lake is a casket trimmer and had been out of work for months and he and his wife tiad been on the verg-e of starvation when, in company with Griswold, they made the sensational raid. MARCHING TO PING YENG. C3n. Teh Effects a J auction With the Mala Ifody of Chinese Troops. London, Aug. Z7. The Times pub lishes a dispatch from Tien Tsin, dated August 23, stat.nj- that General Yeh, -with 4,000 men, has effected a Junction with the Chinese main body at Ping Yeng-. The remainder of the force under General Nieh, is expected to arrive at Ping Yeng to-morrow, The dispatch adds that the retreat from Asa a was brilliantly carried out. The troops marched through a dicHeult country, although they were harassed by the enemy along the whole route. They suc ceeded in breakicg through the Japanese lines at Chuugwa. Tne heat in Corea since July his been intense. China is about to address a note to the powers protesting against the king of Corea declaring his independ ence. The dispatch adds several of the powers are likely to recognize the justice of tha protest because they are certain the. declaration was under Japinese compulsion after the king was captured and that it was ante dated to make it appear voluntary.

The purchase of something like 4,000 acres in and around Gettys burg is embraced in the plan. The g-overnment already owns several hundred acres at the scene of the de cisive battle of the war, and General Sickles proposes to acquire about 2,500 acres more. His plan contemplates the establishment of a military post at Gettj'sburg, a soldiers' horae and an Indian school and perhaps a Q. A. R. museum. Many J-eorde Homeless. Santa Rosa, CaL, Aug. 27.

Every Craft in the Storm's Path Went Down. OYER 1,000 PERISHED. Towns and Villages SweptAway by the Storm. St. Petekj&bubu, Aug-. 27. A wind of death swept across the Sea of Azov yesterday. It will be impossible for days yet to compute the damage done, but it is almost certain that 1,000 have perished, some by drowning, others by being- crushed under the falling- houses and trees, i The excitement is great among- the American colony in this city, for it is feared that at least two parties of American tourists were on the Sea of Azov at the time the wind did its deadly work. All the afternoon there has been a string1 of sailors at the office of American minister asking-, almost begging-, for news from Odessa, whence thej tourists were to have started on the regulation sight-seeing trip across the Crimea, visiting Sabastopol, Balaklava and the other famous battle scenes. At a late hour there was only a g-eneral report of the disaster to base sur mises of the Americans' safety. The report recounts wide havoc The wind was first felt at Nogaisk. No-g-aUk is peopled mostly by fishermen who were out on the water. When the hurricane had swept out to the north a terrible scene was pre sented. The village was razed over turned as if an immense plow had been pushed through it. Lying everywhere were women and chil dren, dead or in their last agonies. The shallow waters of the sea of Azov were lashed to such a height that it was plain that every fishing- boat must have been sunk. The cyclone swept on to the north east after wrecking- Nogaisk. Its path seems to have been unusually wide, for at Marinople it devastated the country to a point eleven miles in land and had its outer edge far upon the sea, Marinople was practically blotted out of existence. Not three houses in a hundred are left standing-. It is estimated that 300 persons per ished in this place alone. North of here the cyclone made a sudden turn to the east over Dolga points, its left edg-e inflicting slight damage to the town of Berdimsk. Houses were un roofed and a dozen persons killed by falling timber. Once at sea the storm made its full fury felt. Of the steamers that touch at the port of Berdimsk not one had come in at the hour of the latest re port. Grave fears are expressed that every craft on the sea had g-one to the bottom, and that every passenger is drowned. When the wind swept over the northern end of Azov it took a new course, going southerly along to coast of the land of the Black Cos sacks. In turn Eisk and Acheuv were ravaged, each town being- almost to tally destro3red. Telegraph commun ication with this district is suspended, and it is impossible to learn the ex tent of the destruction, but at least 1,000 persons have died on the two shores. The storm as nearly as can now be learned, seemed to suddenly lose its force near Temerink, and passed off with comparative quiet southerly over the Black sea. LOVE DID NOT RUN SMOOTH The Resnlt Was a Traj-edy In "Which One Person -Was Killed. Joplin. Mo.. Aug. 27. At Wadding ton, near Siloam Springs, Dr. Ott, a practicing physician, shot Miss Lizzie Craig in the back and then killed him self. Ott is a married man and has two children. He has long- been in love with the girl, and she had g-iven such encouragement to his suit that scandalous gossip started, and one of the results was an estrangement between Dr. Ott and his wife, who left him and went to Texas. Ott urg-ed the girl more vig-orously than before to elopa with him, but her regard was not de veloped to so lawless a pitch, and she declined the invitation. The doctor threatened to kill the g-irl and him self if she fiuaily rejected his suit.but she remained firm to keep within the law. Last Thursday his family returned from Texas unexpectedly. He called immediately upon the young lady and had a talk with her. When she started to leave the room Ott caught her and shot her in the back. Then he put a ball throug-h his heart and fell dead. Letters found on Ott inti mated that Miss Craig- had promised to marry him and he had resolved if she did not to kill her and himself. There was a pair of g-old bracelets in hi3 pocket, and his letter stated that they were to be placed on the arms of Miss Craigr and that she was to be buried with them. Ott was an intelli gent man and enjoyed a g-ood practice in his neighborhood. It is thought the girl will recover. STRUCK IN THE FACE. Colonel Crofton Slapped by Itrst I lea tenant Welch.

Washington, Aug-. 27. A report on the production of lead in the United States during- the first six months of the year was submitted to the United States g-eologlical survey by Special Agent C. Kierchoff. It shows a heavy falling- off in the quantity of lead irawn from domestic sources, and ihows the decline in the price of lead and the prostration of the silver mining- industry have very seriously af fected the leading- industry of the Rocky Mountain states and terri tories. The production of the desilvered lead amounted to S6, 772 net tons, ag-ainst 95,921 for the first six months of 1893, and of soft lead, 15,010 net tons, against 16,305 for the corres ponding period of last year. The to tal production of refined lead was 103, S82 net tons against 111.926 in the first half of 1S93, the refined in bond amounting-to 21, 392 net tons, against 12.230 for the first half of last year. The lead available for home market aggregated 80,990, including- 9,780 tons representing- the contents cf Mexican and Canadian ores. From American sources the lead production netted 71, 04 tons, against 83,830 net tons during- the first half and 80,056 in the second half of 1893. The stocks of lead in refiners hands amounted to 2,655 tons on July 1, as compared with 2,463 tons on January 1. The stock of soft lead was 2,060 tons in the beginning- of the year, ag-ainst 1,880 on July 1. SILTER IN EUROPE. Senator TTolcott Returns and Discusses the Monetary (lucsllon. New York, Aug. 27. Senator Wol cott of Colorado, accompanied by his wife and stepson, were passengers on the La Normandie which arrived yes terday. Senator Wolcott said that during- his trip abroad he had spent much of his time in England, France and Germany, the three countries most interested in the silver question. In Germany the feeling- was almost in favor of bimetallism, but that country would make no move until England took the initiative. In Eng land, Balfour and Chamberlain fa vored bimetallism and thought the system adopted in India was not sat isfactory. Gladstone was opposed to bimetallism and Lord Roseberry would express no opinion on the ques tion. The senator thought the time was not far distant when there would be an international agreement on the subject. PULLMAN MECHANICS. Report That They May Move to Ilia- ratha, Kan., to Work. Chicago, Aug-. 27. A meeting- of about forty Pullman mechanics was held yesterday afternoon to consider the project of moving in a body to Kansas, where it is claimed work has been offered them. It was stated again at the meeting- the men be lieved they would be given employ ment in car works to be built es pecially for them by a capitalist at Hiawatha, Kan. The leaders an nounced to the men the only step necessary for ex-employes of the Pull man company wanting work was to secure recommendations from the foremen of tfeir respective depart ments. A committee was appointed to see that such recommendations were properly made out. It was also determined to send the committee to Hiawatha to carefully look into th scheme. RAIN FOR THE PYTHIAT S. Knights of Pythias In Washington Greeted With a Fierce Storm. Washington, Aug. 27. An unwel come house warming was given the Knights of Pythias, eneampjd in the white city of tents around the Wash ington monument yesterday after noon. It came in the form of a fierce thunder shower which swept over the city almost without warning and then settled into a steady rain until sun set. Several tents were dismantled by the sheet of rain, which beat against them and the lightning was unpleasantly sharp. All of the discomforts incidental to the storm were accepted in hilarious mood by the knights, however, and they made fun under the canvas as well as outside after' the first drench ing rain had passed over.

PUTBto, CoL, Aug. 27. Hon. John C Bell of Montrose, Populist member of congress from the Seconl congres sional district, publishes a statement in a People's party an 1 Waite organ in which he says that he is not a can didate for governor and will not allow the use of his name at the state con vention here September 4. He dis claims having cast any slurs on Gov ernor Waite. Mr. Bell has been much talked of as a possible Damocratic Populist candidate. His statement practically leaves the way clear for Waite's renomination, as no other man has been prominently urged in opposition to the incumbent. Killed by an OOlcer. Pukckll, Ind. Ter., Aug. 27. Dep uty Marshal Ben Goode attempted to arrest a negro, Ed. Green. On de manding Green's surrender, the negro drew a pistol and pulled down on Goode, exclaiming: "We got you now, you." Goode was too quick for him and fired his revolver, the bullet striking the negro in the left breast, passing entirely through the body, killing him almost instantly. ODD FELLOWS." Fronbto la KmmaOth the Orphans IT am. Lolg;e Jottings. The Orphans' home difficulty in Kansas la proving disastrous to the order. Dur ing the past few weeks the grand master baa found it necessary to suspend 13 sub ordinate lodges for insubordination in re sisting the payment of the 1.60 per capita tax for the support and maintenance of the De Boi6sicre Orphans' homo. The membership of these lodges aggregates over 8,000 members, and they aru cut oft from all rights and privileges of the order not only in the subordinate lodges, but in the encampment, canton and Kebekah lodges as well. Ohio has 62,000 members and has but 78 representatives In iGs grand lodge. A member is due to bo charged with dues from the timo of his initiation. The grand tiro has honored Illinois by placing our distinguished brother, J. O. Humphrey of Sprlngfleld, as a member of the committee on appeals for tho S. G. L. An exchange truly says that the noble grand should be one of the best poted par liamentarians in the lodge room. To Odd Fellows' wives it may bo urged that they see that their husbands' dues to j the lodge are kept paid. The startling statement is made that 24 i past grand representatives have died since Memorial day. Such excessive mortality is unusual. Texas has 105 lodges, with 7,478 mem- bers. The receipts for 1893 amounted to I $102,749.75. j Concordia Rebekah lodge of New York reports its assets as aggregating $3,827.57. Odd Fellowship, drawing its inspira tion from holy writ, rejoices in tho fact that of all historio friendships none sur passes that of Chrisc The grand lodge of Oregon has appro priated $500 to enable tho grand master to make official visits to the lodges. A member of a lodge may not vote on any question relating to tho fiscal affairs of his lodge in which he has a direct per sonal interest. It is not lawful to allow the regalia of the order to be used in public in the per formance of a drama on tho stage, even though tho drama shall bo intended to il lustrate the principles of Odd Fellowship. The grand lodge of Arkansas voted $300 to the president of the Rebekah etato con vention for railroad fare for one year. Every brother Is an Odd Fellow for what he is, and not what he has.

NO C0XEY1SM TO LOOK INTO Tlia Congressional Committee Complains of Nothing to Do. Wasbisstos, Auj. 27. The sslect committee "ou tho prevailing dUtrsts," which was appointed by the senate dur iug1 the Coxey movement, soon found it self without business. It never he.d but two meetings, aud heard only two co:u plaints. One of these c.rne from Alorri son I. S win of the Boslou contingent, in dustrial army, aud the other came from one of the leader of the Galvin com pany, named Ward. Speaking of the committee today. Sen ator Vilas, its chairman, said that whn it was called into existence there was a general feeling about the senate that, owing to the general pressure of the times and the persistence of the indus trials, It would become necessary to for mulate some measure that would in some way meet the conditions which seemed to exist. "The conditions changed so quickly, however." he said, "that It soon became evident that the committee would not be called upon to do much. The Chicago strike came on, and with that climax the pressure of the industrials' appeared to diminish rapidly until it had died out en tirely. We heard no more of them. While there existed more or less opposi tion concerning their approach, they have come aud gone. There was no voice to protest when the governor of Maryland had those quartered in that tale arrested, or when the governor of Virginia had the crowd on the Virginia side of the Potomac put out of the state by the militia. "'there seema. added Senator Vilas, "to hare been a mistaken idea aa to the duties of the committee. It was not au thorized to 'investigate' lhe public dis tress at all, but merely to receive memor ials aud petitions on the subject aud to consider the question of legislation. Air. Swift presented a written document and Air. Wara made a lengthy speech to us, while President Fisk of the Bi-Metallic league sent us a long letter. Beyond these we have received nothing what ever. "Some people obtained the impression that the committee would attempt to right the private wrongs of individuals arising from whatever cause. One woman residing in Philadelphia spent her last cent to como to Washington to lay the facts of her eviction from a rent ed house by her landlord, who, she said, was a wealthy alien, before the commit tee, and to ask for redress for the wrong done her. She was, of course, told that lhe committee could take cognizance of no such case, and she appeared greatly surprised that it could not." The committee wiil continue in exist ence during the present congress, if no longer, and it may possibly be made one of the permanent committees of the senate. ONLY FOUND ONE BOTTLE.

London, Aug. 27. The Westminster Gazette today fairly voices the govern ment opinion when it says that the dem onstration in Hyde Park yesterday after noon of the national league for the abol ition of the house of lordi, was a '"damned political squabble." The Gazette adds: The feeling against the lords, in all parte of Liberalism is as strong as ever; but the moment Is Inop portune. "The Conservatives are delighted with the feebleness of the Radical first gun and are making much of the fact that some of the banners carried in the pro cession bore obscene mottos. "The speech of Air. O'Brien was as much an attack upon the government as upon tke house of lords." Dr. Charles D. K. Tanner, member of parliament for the middle division of Cork, anti-Parn-llite, emphasized his re marks by waving a shillalah which he had brought with him. While flourish ing this stick above his head. Air. Tanner asserted that the lords composed "a house of bastards. Not all of them," he explained, "and to those who are not bastards, I apologize."
