HE HAD TWO -WIVES. And the Question Now la Whether His Death was Accidental. San Francisco, Aug. 20. July 24th last, Carl Shorr, a mining prospector from : Australia, was drowned while bathing in the ocean near the Cliff house,; in sight of his wife to whom he had been married but a week. It was thought Shorr left considerable property and his wife has been trying to find it. Today a woman who says she was Shorr's wife arrived here from Butte, Mont., and met Mrs. Shorr No. 2. On compar ing their stories, a singular story of the drowned man's duplicity was unfolded. Mrs. Shorr No. 1 says she was married to Shorr ten years ago, and they accu mulated a little property in Butte. Her husband went to Australia and last May wrote her to join hi m there. Instead of waiting' for her he took passage for ban Irancisco. With him came a Miss xay- lor, whom he married on reaching here. He expected by the time he reached San Francisco that his first wife would be on the way to Australia. Instead she missed the steamer and it is thought that Shorr. fearing prosecution for big amy, committed suicide. The second wile gave all her money to Khorr and is now left penniless. TUSKISH BRIGANDS. They are Capturing Men and Holding Them for Ransom. Constantinople, Aug. 20. Another outrage by a party of Turkish brigands is causing much uneasiness to the au thorities of this city. An Italian rail road inspector at work about seventy mites from Salonica was abducted by the brigands, and is supposed to be held a prisoner- pending the payment of a heavy ransom. The body of a murdered railroad man was found near the spot where the inspector was last seen. Sio news is received up to date 01 tlie Frenchmen Ruffier, who started about a week ago to ransom his employer, Kay mond, who was held a prisoner by the brigands. Switchmen on a Strike Peoria, 111., Aug. 20. A etrike is iu progress in this city by the switchmen employed by the Peoria & Pekin Union, a line which is the terminal for the- Big Four, the Jacksonville, Southeastern, the Lake Erie & Western, the Peoria, Decatur & Evansville, the Terre Haute & ErieaQid- the Peoria & Western roads, all of them being involved, or rather be ing discommoded by this strike. The grievance is the general yardmaster, Mr. Bell, who has lately advanced a man in preference to some of the extras who have been working for the road. Only mail trains were allowed to leave the city till noon today, when the passen ger service was restored. Freight busi ness is at a standstill, no trains being made up or going out of the yards. There is a great deal of perishable freight now on hand. The probabilities of a settlement are not good at present. Chicago's People's Party. Chicago, Aug. '20. At the Grand Pacific were taken the first practical steps towards the establishment in Chicago of a people's party. The conference was a secret one, held because of the presence in the city of W. F.

A. Destructive Bain. - Macon, M6., Aug. 21. The heavy rain the past few days caused the Chari ton river and the Muscle fork running through the western portion of Macon county to overflow. Hay, wheat, oats, stacks and shocks were washed away. Cornfields and fences were destroyed and a large amount of live stock drowned It is "feared railroad and wagon bridges will be washed out.

A big rate war was inaugurated here today to New York, caused by the Baltimore & Ohio making an excursion rate at $15.50 to Atlantic City, which is less than the rate one way. The Erie notified the Balti more & Ohio several days ago that if it did not withdraw the rate immediately, a rate of one fair would be made to New York. The Baltimore & Ohio declined to withdraw the rate, and the Erie an nnouced a one-fare round-trip rate to New York, effective August 25. The "Big Four," Chesapeake & Ohio, and Pennsylvania, met the rate today. The action of the Baltimore & Ohio, it is al leged, is a direct violation of the trunk line agreement. The demoralization of rates will probably extend to other points. . The Western lines, it is reported have demanded differential rates. llesnlt of Pure Cussedness. Bradford, Pa., Aug. 20. Anson L. Pratt, fireman of the Campbell Lumber road, was killed today, and John Galvin, engineer, and an unknown man fatally injured. Pratt and Galvin, in making up the train left one car at the top' of a steep grade, placing a block of wood un der the wheel to hold it, while they pulled another car from a siding. Two young men coming along, knocked the block from beneath the wheels jmd the car started down the grade. One of the young men was on the car which he had helped to start, but becoming frightened at the speed it attained, he jumped and was fatally injured. The car smashed into the engine and wrecked it, the car also being wrecked. ' No One Seriously Injured. - Swansea, Wales, Aug. 20.

The canvas-covered pavilion, in which the com petitions in Welsh minstrelsy were be ing held, collapsed, but, though a panic ensued in the audience of 10,000 and many were trampled under foot during the rush for shelter, no one was seriously injured. It is probable that the session of 1893 of this society will be held in Chicago. v. The Scaffolding Gave Way. Berlin, Aug. 20. A dispatch from Nordenham, Ogdenburg, says a scaffold collapsed today, killing ten men and ser iously injuring forty others. In .addi tion, fifty workmen were precipitated into the wUter, but most of them were saved through clinging to the planks and poles belonging to the fallen scaffold ing.

A dispatch from Treves says the public exhibition of the holy coat said to have been 'worn by the Savior was begun today. Tho exhib ition was inaugurated by a pontifical service conducted by the bishop, after which the people of the parish of St. Gangolphin, Treves, opened the series of pilgrims' procession. The coat was in a glass case on the high marble staircase behind the high altar. A largs cross, il luminated by gas, haa been erected over the place where the relic is shown and nve nags were hoisted on the root ot the cathedral. A great multitude was in at tendance to .see the holy coat, and phy sicians are overrun with applications for certificates on the part of the pil grims who wish to touch the garment with the hope of being cured of disease. Neither the diocesan authorities or the great and increasing throng of pilgrims apparently pay any attention to the charges affecting the authenticity of the holy coat. ACCiBESTALLY SHOT. For Want of Attention a Man Bleeds to Death. New YonK, Aug. 20. The last day of the Piatt Deutsche fest at Union Hill was marked by biooasneo. adoui o o'clok last evening several visitors to the fest were shooting at ranges. A crowd of boys was dangerously nepr the tar gets, and John Shurer, one of the spec ial policemen, was . sent to drive them away. While he was clearing the ground he was struck in the leg by a stray bullet. The blood gushed forth with the spurt that always accompanies a severed artery. A crowd gathered around the wounded man, but no one seemed to know enough to staunch the flow of blood. The only concern was to get Shurer to the Hoboken hospital. A brewery wagon was secured and Shurer was bundled into it. He was hurried to St. Mary's hospital, but just as he was placed on a cot he died. The physi cians say an artery was severed and that Shurer bled to oeatn. ne was an ex policeman of Union Hill, and leaves a family. It was not known who fired the ehot. An Express Train Held Up.
