is little or no improvement in his
malady.

HOT POLITICAL POT
Two Speakers Assaulted in
Indianapolis.
0XE A DEMOCRAT, ONE A POPULIST
Ifarrlsnn to Speak in New York Nell
W ek--MeKinley There Now Con
gressman Yi'ilnoii'a Tour.
Indianapolis, Ind., Oct. 25. There
were two political riots in this city last
night, and feeling has not run so high
since the days of the great Garfield-Porter
campaign in Indiana. Milton Tur
ner, a colored orator who lias gained
notoriety in recent years in the Western
states with his democratic speeches,
was brought here to address the colored
people of Indianapolis at the Yellow
bridge over the canal. This ia a colored
republican locality, and in 1890 a couple
of democratic orators were mobbed and
nearly killed there. Turner was greeted
with an immense crowd of colored citi
zens. He began with a tirade against
ex-President Harrison, when the dis
pleasure of the audience burst forth and
a rush was made for the stand. Turner
was dragged down and pounded iu spite
of a squad of police present. Heads were
clubbed, but the mob could not be
driven off the man. Finally he was
dragged out under guard of the police.
In spite of this the enemies of Turner
chased him six blocks and came near
killing him. The other riot occurred at
Agnes and Morris streets, on the south
side, where Allen Jennings, a populist,
invaded a democratic community. Jen
nings heaped all the contumely he could
think of on Congressman Bynum, when
on a signal a shower of stones was
rained on him. He escaped from the
fury of his pursuers with little damage,
save to his clothing. A number of
heads were cracked by stones, and one
little girl near the speaker's stand was
badly cut over the eye.
An Ovation to Breckinridge.
Lexington, Ky., Oct. 25. Colonel
Breckinridge received an ovation at
Mount Sterling yesterday, and spoke to
a courthouse full of people, among whom
were about 30 of the best ladies of the
city. He was met at the depot by about
200 men, who cheered to the echo when
he came out of the coach. He was
driven to the hotel in a carriage with
Judge French, Henry Woodford and
Joseph Scott, all prominent citizens.
The carriage w as preceeded by a brass
band. The colonel's appearance at the
courthouse was greeted with loud ap
plause. He spoke for an hour and forty
minutes, urging all democrats to vote
for Judge Beckner and Joseph Kendall,
the short and the long-term candidates
fyr congress from the tenth district.
Colonel Breckinridge's speech contained
nothing sensational, but his delivery
was so impassioned and he treated the
dry political subjects in so eloquent a
manner that he was applauded almost
continuously toward she close. Were
he a candidate for congress from the
tenth district, democrats eay he would
have no opposition. The strength
Breckinridge has outside of his own
district is remarkable, and his fitness to
represent Kentucky in the senate is be
ing more and more discussed.
Once a Millionaire, Now a Burglar.

days in Massachusetts. He built Por
phyry hall, on Summer street, one of the
most beautiful residences in the country,
the building without furnishings costing
over $100,000. The structure was pur
chased by the Bavarian Brotherhood in

The Czar Improperly Treated.
London, Oct. 25. A St. Petersburg
dispatch this morning says there is a
general feeling of indignation against
Professor Zarscharin, whoe mistaken
diagnosis in the first place, it is claimed,
was rendered more Injuriom to the
patient by the professor's negligence
and lack 01 medical skill, professor
Zarscharin w ill be severely blamed ac
cording to these advices, by Professor
Leyderi, and it i asserted that should
the czar die it will lie because proper
treatment was not undertaken in time.
The dispatches add that since the crisis,
the czarina has been subject to continual
trembling and syncope. Yesterday the
condition of czar varied between drowsi
nees and comparative cheerfulness.
During one of the latter periods the czar
said he had been left alone with the
czarevitch an hour, and hud directed
the leaving of a usage of farewell to
Kussia, which will be iHsued upon his
death.

the Baiaena went on shore. They had

ghastly ring ot corpses, the remains of
Ksqniiuaiix who had evidently died of
starvation. Clean-picked bones and
partly devoured bodies revealed 11 story
of cannibalism. One corpse bad been
beheaded, and the head was -found 30
yards away from the trunk at 11 place
where some one had evidently made a
meal upon the Ib sh and brains. It is
supposed the wrty w hile traveling found
their progress choked by the setting in

stronger in the futile elforts to save their
own lives were driven to eat the others,
