- Abandoned the Ship If e. Went
Wrong.
Indianapolis, Nov. 18. The longer
the allance remains in session, the far
ther apart grow the various factions, ap
pears to be the situation this morning.
It seems to be impossible to settle the
various -organizations down to anv de
finite expression or any united policy.
The third party fight is ia earnest and
every one has a more or less direct reference-.
to this issue. A split on the
sub-treasury and land loan principles
seems inevitable. The open meeting of
the alliance this morning was a complete
fizzle, and lasted but a few minrftes,
when the executive session ' opened
and trouble oyer the sub-treasury began
A communication was received from the
executive committee ' and sub-treasury
alliance asking for a hearing for pro
test prepored by delegates from Missouri,
under instruction from the St. Louis
convention of last September. The
motion to appoint a committee of five to
read the protest and report to the alli
ance ; was : carried. The sub-treasury
committee, it is said, will refuse to let
the,, protest , be read except before the
full alliance. . - -:

have originated ia the packing room on
the fourth floor. .
, ..The Plate Works Shut Down.
London-, Nov.' 18. The tin plate in
dustry in South Wales is in an exceed
ingly depressed condition' since Monday

Excitement In Finland.
- Hei.sixgfobs, Nov. 17. Much exite-
ment has been caused in Finland by the
announcement of the imperial ukaee ex
tending to- Finland, now prevailing in
Russia, in reference to the export of ceN
eals, excepting wheat. The ukase- en
tirely ignores the Finnish diet, and in so
far abrogates the conetitutiou of Finland
which Alexander . I and his successors
swore to support. From the temper -of
the Finns, there is but little doubt, that
in the event of a war between Germany
and Russia they would be .found largely
on the side of Germany. .".
." Won't Want Brazil's Trade.
London-, Nov. 17. British merchants
are receiving many Brazilian orders for
machinery, apparatus, etc., for develop
ing Brazilian industries, but they de
cline all of them at present, fearing a
further fall in the rate of exchange, al
though Brazilians offer to deposit in the
Bank of England an ample amount of
paper currency as security. ; .

Mehced, Cal., Nov. 17. The jury in
the case of James Sullivan, charged with
the murder of Michtel Shelley; has re

medical testimony sustained the plea.
The murder itself was not denied, as it
was clearly proved.
Ciave Bread to the Poor. -
St. Petersburg, Nov. 17. Soldiers of
the Odessa garrison have voluntarily
asked that the daily bread ration issued

benefit of the starving people in the

the starving is general among all classes,
and often takes novel forms.

. The papers are all commenting now
on the unfortunate condition of affairs
in which the decline of the alliance
party was as marked as the consump
tion of timbers in a burning barn. The
reason is hot "hard to. find. : No great
party advocating special - privilege to a
certain class can live long. ' Opposition
to the sub-treasury scheme began early ,
and the heat gradually became a con
suming fire. The alliance was a thun
derous protest against politiral villinny,
and as such it has done considerable
good. It has proved that the greatest
class in the nation can band together in
a common cause, and this fact, hanging
in ierrrorem over the calculations of un
principled politicians, is suited to pro
mote more or less discipline. Klamath

Neibart, Mont., Nov. 17. Jake Har
ris, the ijrreat Jt alls gambler, who snot
and probably fatally wounded Marshal
Treat and Joseph Lessard, of that city,
on the depot platform at Niehart, whs
taken from jail yesterday by a crowd of
indignant citizens and hanged. The
shooting was entirely unjustifiable, and
when the surgeons announced that both
men were nearly dead, a crowd of de
termined men . gathered quietly and
quickly. At 5 o'clock the crowd went to
the jail and seized Harris, and a rope
was adjusted to his neck. . There was no
time wasted. The murderer was asked
if he had anything to say, and answering .
in the negative the rope was thrown
over the limb of a tree and in a second.
the body was dangling in midair. . After
the lynching the crowd quietly dispersed.
Jake Harris was conspicuous in many
bloody fights, and. it is no surprise to
see him go by the lynch route, although
his friends maintain that he was crazy.
CMnese to be Driven Out of Butte. -
Butte, Nov. 17. A. well organized
movement has been, inaugurated here to
rid ; the ;-town.--of. tb. Chinese-elementv-The
subject was taken up about a week '
ago. the Workingmen'tf Union; which
has a large membership. . The matter
was called, to the attention of the Mln-
era' Union and other labor organizations'
which sent delegates to a .meeting .held i
last night, at which it was decided to be- ;
gin the effort .three weeks from date. It
is a question whether or not the move
ment will succeed. No violence is to be '
resorted to, but every effort will be . put
forth to discourage, the employment of :
Chinese i n-any capacity, and ,a system
atic boycott- against Chinese laundries.
andTestaurants will be started.,; From a.
census of Chinese taken by the labor or
ganizations, it is ascertained that they '
have a population-of 1600 in Butte.
The Guarantee Still Holds Good.
. .- .... -
San Francisco, Nov. 17. When a dis- -patch
was received from St. Louis yes
terday announcing the transcontinental '
association has refused to indorse the .
$50. rate guaranteed by the Southern,'
Pacific to delegates to the national con- -ventions
if held in San Francisco, Vice- r
President Stubbs said : "Our guarantee
of a $50 rate holds good. The St. Louies
dispatch means that the members of the
association voted against the rate as
telegraphed from here, without consider- "
ing the full proposition. Much can be
done between the time of the announce- .
ment and the time of holding, the con
vention, and the 'guarantiees of. the
Southern and. Union Pacific roads are
sufficient for present purposes."
Another Fool Faster Gives up.
" ;New York, Nov. 17. George Stratton,
who has ben fasting for more than forty
days at Hubber's museum, exhibited
every symptom of heart failure yester
day and alarmed the physicians to such
an extent that they ordered the fast off.
Stratton was with difficulty persuaded
to take a few teaspoonfuls of cocoa. His
record is 37 days, 1 hour and 2 minutes
on water alone, without stimulants of
any kind, something never attempted
before, and 41 days, 18 hours and 30
minutes without food. During the in
tervening four days he drank smaH
quantities of champagne with crushed
ice. He was the last of several contest
ants who undertook to break Succi's
record of 45 days.
To Exhibit at the World's Fair.
JLondon Nov. 17. In an interview,
McCormick, the world's fair commis
sioner, said : ' "The: interest in Great
Britain in the exposition is. increasing
daily and permeating throughout the
provinces.- This is evidenced by the
number ofinquirieswhichlam receiving
from manufacturing towns, both direct
and through consular officers of the.
United States. The colonies of Ceylon
and New South Wales, have indicated
their intention of taking a prominent
part in the Kngliph section of the expo
sition, but the South Australian, and
Straits settlements have declined tho
invitation to participate." .
