C'httlra in Naples.
Lomh)x, July ill. Pegpite the denials
made as to the presence of cholera in
Naples and the information that ap
peared to susuiiu the denials, the Cen
tral News publishes the following figures
as to the number of cases of disease and
deaths in that city : From July 20th to
Julv 2Sth, there were 212 cholera cases
registered in the city, and 157 deaths.

St. Paul, July 21. Th" grain men
have long been considering how the
wheat crop is to be moved, in view of
the fact that their borrowing power is
exceedingly limited, owing to the finan
cial stringencv. Country banks will
not make loans. A plan whereby the
effects of the stringency may lie obvi
ated as much as possible is being adopt
ed in some parts of southern Minnesota
and will probably be generally adopted,
as it meets with much favor In business
circles. It is proposed that the grain
men issue checks for grain purchased of
the farmers, payable in 15 days, allow
ing tor the collection of drafts against
the consignments. At some points the
banks will not advance money on such
drafts, but will only enter them for col
lection. With this arrangement, the
wheat crop must move slowly, and
farmers who are obliged to sell may
find themselves much inconvenienced.
The above plan was successfully put in
practice in the northern part of the
state several years ago.
reallv accented Siam's submission to
the full demands of France's ultimatum.
The submission was onlv put on record
when received from Prince Yaldehana,
Siamese minister to France, and nothing
final will be done until M. lydere Av
Yillers, French plenipotentiary, now on
his way to Slam, has accomplished his
mission toliangkok. His instructions
are: Siam's submission to guarantees
against a renewal of Siam's attacks upon
the French, and to ask for special ad
vantages in behalf of the French, in
w hich the financial world is understood
to be interested.
The Siamese minister informed the
government today that Siam was pre
pared to give the supplementary guar
antee required for France for the fulfill
ment of the terms of the ultimatum
pending the final settlement of the
questions involved. The blockade Is
still in force.

to America. Of this amount J."hHI,H00 is
consigned to the First National bank,
Chicago; $500,000 to the Illinois Trust

Dank of Nova Scotia, Chicugo. It is es
timated the total shipment from Loiulnn
and the continent for the week will
reach nearly fS,000,000. A tour of the
leading trust companies developed the
fact that there were few defaulters of
importance in the payment of interest.

Senator Lane, of North Carolina
Ann Ilia Position.
Kalbioii, X. C, July 31. Senator
Lance last week wrote a letter to the
farmers' alliance in which, in reply to a
question as to his position on the silver
law, he said be was unalterably opposed
to the repeal of the Sherman act unless
some substitute was provided. He was
.severely criticised for the tone of his
letter and now replies in another letter.
He says: "The charge that a democrat
vis at variance with his party who refuses
to favor the unconditional repeal of the
-Sherman law, depends on the truth of
bat the party laid down in the plat
form at Chicago. If promises or pledges
amount to anything, the Chicago plat
form demands a repeal of the law as an
oostniction to the free coinage of silver.
'The obvious meaning is that if the law
-was out of the wav we could have free
- coinage. That is one of the things I
.propose to put in place of the Sherman
law, and I propose to vote against repeal
unless that be done. If my party is op
posed to that, then the utterances at
Chicago were intended to deceive. If it
was sincere, then I am trying to stand
on the platform. It pledges the party
to the use of both gold and silver with
out discrimination. If we cease to coin
one and refuse to tender it in payment
even of obligations which by contract
would be payable therein, we do dis
criminate against that metal. Men of
common sense who are loyal to the pur
poses they profess will not surrender the
advantages of their position. The law
now in existence can lie kept thus by a
nonconcurrence of either the bouse, sen
ate or president to its repeal, whereas,
the Sherman law once repealed, the
measures which are to take its place
would have to be passed by affirmative
legislation, requiring a concurrence of
all three branches of the lawmaking de
partment, and no sensible man ac
quainted with the situation can believe
these measures could pass under such
circumstances.
To Itaduca Mexico's Army.
Citt ok Mexico, July 31. It is ex
pected that President Diaz will soon
issue a decree outlining a plan for a
considerable reduction in the army by
the disbanding of 4,000 or 6,000 men.
This is part of the programme of econ
omy decided upon by the administra
tion, which is determined to make all
possible sacrifices, In order to pay in
terest on the foreign debt, which has
become so heavy a charge owing to the
enormous premium on gold. Auxiliary
forces will be created, which can be
utilized if required, but which will not

WILLED TO THE HOCTOKB.
A tterlous Charge.
Portland, Or., July 31. Harry Lam
bert was arrested yesterday morning on
the serious charge of attempting to out
rage Jennie Morgau. The story of the
woman is that she met Lambert on the
street late Saturday night, and he told
her he had a sealskin tacqtie in his room
for which he had no use and would give
to her if she would come with him. She
went, and shortly after midnight the in
mates of the lodging-house in which
Lambert lives were awakened by her
screams. Officer Hirsch was summoned
and took both Lambert and Mrs. Morgan
to the city jail, where they were locked
np. Mrs. Morgan has a very unsavory
reputation, and Lambert has been in
previous difficulties of a similar or more
glaring nature.
Hays the Monterey Is Unsafe.
San Fkaxcisco, July 31. The Ex
aminer will say that while the Monterey
was lying at 1'ortland bfty-six of her
men deserted. A number of these de
serters was interviewed here. Lamest
Uarrigan, one of the number, acting as
spokesman, said : "We left the Mon
terey because we considered her a dan
gerous craft, and because the quarters
for the men on board of her are unen
durable." The men admitted that the
Monterey was a splendid sea boat, but
said they were afraid of the boilers.
They tell the story that while the Ward
boilers were being tested the ship be
came filled with hot air below the decks
and was almost untenantable, and that
the iron superstructure of the ship be
came so hot it could not be touched
with the unprotected hand.
A Oermaa Wants Ilnmanlty to Profit bjr
111! Ileath.
Olympia, Wash., July 31. With the
curious request of contributing his body
to the dissecting table "for the benefit
of humanity," and after having kept
two pistols by his side for ten years
with which to avoid lingering illness, of
which he had a horror, Francisco Hoff
man, a wealthy German merchant of
Ulympia, died today three hours after
an operation. He left an estate valued
at nearly $200,000. When the final op
erntiorf came Hoffman warned bis
physicians that the time mast be 0
o'clock, not one minute sooner or later.
He was a model of exactness and pre
cision. Hoffman'! trouble was hernia,
FIGHT WITH OUTLAWS.
On Killed and One Wounded and
Captured.
Yinita, I. T., July 31. United States
Deputy Marshal Peck Bruner and posse
had a battle with four outlaws a few
miles west of this city last Saturday
evening, in which one of the outlaws
was killed and another severely
wounded and captured. The dead man
lived three hours after being shot and
aid he had participated in the Mount
ain Yalley bank robbery and belonged
to the Wooten gang of cow and horse
thieves that have been stealing and
plundering in the district west of this
place for more than a year. His name
is Ralph Holleck, alias lioxie, and his
home is at Udall, Kan. The body was
brought to this city, and if no one
claims it, it will be interred here. Sam
Rogers, the wounded man, was also
brought in and the doctors dressed his
wounds. It is thought he will recover.
Wooten, the leader of the gang, and an
other outlaw escaped.
Iteeeued f rom Drowning.
RitDDiNo, Cal., July 31. This after
noon three girls, named Olio Iiemis,
Stella Taylor and Annie Wright, went
down to the river to take a boat ride.
OlioBemis, the oldest, stepped into the
boat, when it broke loose from its
fastenings. Thw current being swift, it
floated into the middle of the river. She
became frightened and jumped over
board. Three boys about a quarter of a
mile distant heard her screaming.
When one of them arrived, he im
mediately stripped and swam to save
her, which he did, just as she was sink
ing for the last time, and brought her
safely to shore. The name of the res
cuer is AI Sebrlng, aged 17 years.
Much Vnsaslnrss at llangkoa.
Paris, Aug. 1. Advices received here
from Bangkok show that no understand
ing has been reached in regard to the
delimitation of the territory claimed by
the French, or at least that no know ledge
to that effect has reached the Siamese
capital. Neither is it known at Bangkok
that the blockade is to be at once raised.
On the contrary, dispatches from Bang
kok fully support the reports current
last night that much uneasiness as to
the final outcome of the trouble is felt in
Bangkok, and that the anxiety is in
creasing daily. It is feared an attack
will shortly lie made upon Bangkok, un
less the French government sends orders
to Yiee-Admiral Humann not to attack
the city.
The negotiations have become secret
absolutely and nothing can be learned
of them.
The Chicago Wheat Market.
Chicago, July SI. There was an
other panicky slump in the price of
wheat on the board of trade this morn
ing. September opened at 59Jgc,
against 61 '.jC at, the close Suturday,
quickly slid off to 677.C, and almost as
quickly rallied to 50' 4c; thereafter be
came quiet, comparatively steady, fluc
tuating within the extreme of 58Uc and
oO'aC. The same causes which pre
vailed for gome time controlled today a
gloom v financial outlook, inability of
the longs to get the money to carry
wheat, and inability to take advantage
of offers for cash wheat, because it was
impossible .to sell New York exchange.
It is understood one house, the senior
member of which was once a prominent
figure on '.the board, but who bus not
been doing a large business lately, noti
fied those having dealings with the firm
to lower their trades.
marked improvement.
Mora Opium Smuggling.
San Fuancisco, Aug. 1. A seizure of
opium valued at $,000 was made in
Chinatown this morning. The govern
ment has information that the opium
was sent down from Portland bylhinbar
and Blum, two of the 15 men recently
indicted there for wholesale snuggling.
Dunbar and Blum, it is said, sent the
opium here in the hope that it would lie
smuggled in, and expected to muke
enough money out o' it to pay their
attorneys. The opium came down in
nut oil lioxes and was seized as it was
about to he dumped into the cellar of a
Chinese establishment.
ImprUoned by a Madman.
BurrALo, July 31. Charles Koach, a
telegraph operator in the Lake Shore
deot at Yan Bureu, had an exciting
experience with a madman last night.
About midnight a message was flashed
into the dispatcher's office in this city
by Roach, in which he said a crazy man
had nailed up the office doors and win
dows, imprisoning him, and that he
was attempting to fire the building.
Chief Dispatcher Murray immediately
sent to a work train at Brockton to ruu to
Van Buren to rescue the operator.
When the train stopped in front of the
station, the crazy man had dug a grave
near the track, and when asked what he
intended to do he pointed to the im
prisoned oerator and said. "My
partner in there lost all his money in a
theatrical enterprise, and I am going to
bury him." He was coaxed on the
train and turned over to the authorities
at Dunkirk.
France Demand necurlty.
Lo NDojf, July 31. The Paris cor
respondent of the Central News bureau
ays that it has been learned from good
authority that France demands as se
curity from Siam that the terms of the
ultimatum becarried out, the temporary
custody of Chataboon,a town on the
coast of Siam ; also, that Siam shall es
tablish no military stations at certain
places near the frontier of Cambodia
nor within a certain distance of the Me
Kong river.

Kekels on Washington.
Washington, Aug. 1. Senator Squire
culled on Comptroller Eckels today to
leave papers sent him recommending
men for bank receiverships. Eckels was
asked if Squire said anything about his
reference to Washington's having been
over-boomed and replied : "Hecouldn't
do it. He knows that I was right, as
everybody does who knows anything
about the conditionsout there." F.ekels'
article iu the North American Review

where cities have been laid out far in

reasons, )erhaps owing to the dilatory
