- London, Oct. 6. Newspapers at St.

merchants and members of the nobility
for seeking profit from their stores of
corn while poor peasants are starving.
They make a strong appeal to the gov

the export of rye and substitute there
for a heavy tax on the exportation of all
cereals. Reports come from Boku dis
tricts and elsewhere to the effect that
thousands of persons are dying from
starvation. .. .

Affairs In JhlH.
new York, Oct. 5. Advices to the
Herald from Valparaiso, Chili, 'state
that as the date of election day draws
near, rumors about candidates for the
office of president increase in number.
Among those prominently mentioned is
Senor Irarazavel. It is understood,
however, that a majority of leaders are
in favor of tendering the honor to Ad
miral Jorge Montt, who, with Waldo
Silva and Ramon Barros Luco form the
widely-celebrated junta de gobirono. In
fact, it is reported that he has already
been urged to allow his name to be used
aa a candidate. No one could be selec
ted who could satisfy all the factions as
Admiral Montt would. Word has
reached here of the arrival of the flag
ship San Francisco at Payta, Peru, of
her orders from the American govern
ment to return to Valparaiso, and of her
putting into Callao harbor on her return
to this city. The news has not been re
ceived pleasantly here1. The Chilians
regard her return with undisguised dis
favor. Natural Gas for Stockton.
Stockton, Cal., Oct. 4. The Stockton
Gas company has bought the gas flow of
John Jackson's big natural well, and is
running the pipe to the company's
works. It is said when the connections
are made the old company will stop the
manufacture of gas and furnish the nat
ural product to the people at $1 per 1000
feet. The Jackson gas well has a daily
flow of about 1,000,000 feet, which is
more than this city consumes. The old
gas company has expended $28,000 in
boring a gas well, but met trouble in
dropping a big tool in the well. They
have been drilling out the lost tool for
seven months past, and expect to soon
have it removed. . The city is pretty
well lighted-with natural gas.

A Defaulting Cashier Wanted in a

Pakkersbukq, W. Va., Oct. 5. A
tramp named William Downey was ar
rested last night for the murder of Mrs.
Henry Cosert and her son Jopling, the
burning of the bodies and of the victims'
home, and the robbery of $1000 in gold.
The scene of the tragedy was in Raleigh
county. The family was a thrifty one
and lived in a solitary place. Mrs. Cos
ert had a great liking for gold, and
turned all she saved into it. For years
she had beon hoarding all her savings at
her home, and had accumulated about
$1000. The charred remains of herself
and son were found by a passer-by, who,
on Saturday morning, saw the smoking
timbers of what was once, their home.
The community is much excited and
would lynch the tramp if the evidence
against him were stronger.
SECRETARY OF WAR.
A Possibility of the Selection of ex Gov
ernor Chiney, of cw Hampshire.
New Yokk, Oct. . 5. The Herald's
Washington correspondent telegraphs us
follows : If ex-Governor Chiney, of New
Hampshire, is not selected to succeed
Secretary Proctor, there will be a great
surprise among a number of officials at
the war department.- Just where these.,
gentlemen got their information from is
not known, but several of them having
close relationship with Mr. Proctor ex
press themselves as , very certain of
Governor Chiney's appointment. A
noteworthy circumstance is the persist-
wasmngton, Crovernor uniney was one
of the first possibilities spoken of among
the army people, but as General Lew
Wallace and others loomed up the gossip
about the former subsided. Within the
last few days, however, his name has
come to the front again, and, as prev
iously intimated, the army people' have
practically accepted his appointment as
a foregone conclusion. . ,
THE MISSING CASHIER.
An Effort Will Be Made to Bring; Back
a Pennsylvania Defaulter.
Habkisbubg, Pa., Oct. 5. The story
that William Livsey, the missing ex
cashier of the state treasury, whose evi
dence is wanted by the legislative in
vestigating committee, is in Canada, is
generally credited here. Mr. Livsey rs
father lives in Canada, and it is thought
he went there when he was discovered
in Milwaukee. It is understood that.
the state authorities want him badly,
and, and as a consequence, little sur
prise was expressed when it became
known that Pattison - and other state
officials are arranging to secure his ex
tradition. Governor Pattison was asked
on .what charge Livsey would be arrssted
id Canada in order to secure his extra
dition, but declined to eay anything on
the subject and said he preferred not to
be quoted. The governor remarked
casually that Livsey was wanted, and "
his manner betokened that at the proper
time there would be brought out evi
dence strong enough to secure his extra
dition. It is said that the matter is in '
the hands of the attorney-general. "

Rome, Oct. 5. The streets were .filled .
today by people 'shouting, for ihe king,
mingled with cries against the pilgrims
and the pope. The day passed off, how-
ever, without any violence. In Naples
similar scenes were enacted. In Milan
the people threatened violence to some
foreigners who refused to join in the ex-
fression of loyalty, and in Florence the
rench residents thought it prudent to
remain indoors ' Everywhere the great
est devotion was expressed for the royal
family and the cause of Italian unity. .
