THE WAR AT AN END
HER LAST ACE.
Brazillian Fanatics Have
Been Crushed.
NO POSSIBILITY OF A RALLY
Xbe OoTermeot Victory at Cauadoi was
Decisive. News of Consellhelro's
JBeath lias Been Confirmed.
Sew York, Oct. 13. A dispatch to
the Herald from Buenos Ayres says :
Advice from the Herald's correspond
ent at Bio Janerio eaya that details of
the last big battle at Canndos have
reached that city. There is no longer
any doubt of the death of Antonio Con
eeilheiro, the fanatic leader. He was
killed early in the battle, but the fact of
his death did not become generally
known until the fighting had been going
on several hours. When they learned
of it, the fanatics, who up to that time
had been fighting savagely, lost heart
and were slaughtered by the hundred.
Conseilheiro's body was found in a
street of Canados. Around him were
the bodies of about one hundred of his
personal guards, who had died in tbe
last desperate fight to save their chief.
The bodies were fearfully hacked and
mutilated. BeBide the body of Conseil
heiro lay an imperial Bag, a red cross on
the white background.
The capture of the city was accomp
lished by the government troops with
the aid of torch and dynamite.
When the fanatics saw certain defeat
they applied the torch to many houses,
and scores of them rushed in and were
burned to death, preferring death to sur
render. The government troops burned
the remaining houBes.
Three thousand of the rebels who es
caped the awtul slauhgter at Ganudos
have been taken prisoners, and now the
rebellion may be said to be over.
A Herald dispatch from Valparaiso
says the senate immediately after meet
ing began tbe consideration of the
budget. When the work is finished the
senate will take up a bill which has been
introduced providing for a retaliatory
tariff against the United States. The
bill provides for increased duty on im
ports, and a great number of articles
will be affected if the bill becomes a
law.
The frauds said to have been discover
ed by the government in building the
drydock at Talcahuano will amount, ac
cording to the radical press, 1,000,000
pesos. Representatives of the govern
ment are investigating the matter.
Large discoveries of sulphur, sulphate
and copper have been reported from the
vicinity of Guatacoatteo, in the provinco
of Tarapaca.

JUSTICE FIELD ABOUT TO RETIRE.
His Resignation Is Likely to be Pre
sented Soon.
Washington, Oct. 13. Justice Ste
phen Field, of the eup-eme court, it is
believed by his many friends, will an
nounce his resignation from the su
preme court bench some time during the

nothing about the matter for publication
today.

ent position and has been eligible for re
tirement on full pay for nearly eleven
years.
He has been in feeble health for sev
eral years. - Since be passed Chief Jus
tice Marshall's record he has had retir
ment under serious consideration.
Attorney-General McKenna is regard
ed as being almost certain to succeed
Justice Field. Both men are native.
Californians.
An Associated Preess correspondent
called at Justice Field's residence today,
but the Justice excused himself by say
ing that he was not feeling well. Mrs.
Field would neither confirm nor deny
the report of her husband's impending
retirement, though giving the impres
sion that it was at least under serious
consideration.

"O, Myrtilla, I am just so glad you
came in. 1 nave so mucn to tell you.
What do you think? You'd never
guess. Reggie called last night."
"Who?"
"Reggie Reggie Highflier. Why,
he's been calling on me for a long time
now.
"Why, how funny. So he has on
me."
"Yes, yes; he told me all about that.
Well, as I was just going to say, Reg
gie called last night, and along about
12 o clock, after v. s had sat looking at
one another for about a - couple of
hours without-saying a word, what
does he do but fall plump upon
his knees just as it is described in
novels, you know and proposed to
me. O, Myrtilia, it was just heavenly!
I do wish somebody else could have
been around so as to see it.
"He put his hand upon his heart and
vowed that if I banished him from my
presence life hereafter would be to him
one loner, dreary dream, and all that
kind of thing, you know. And he eaid
he laid his whole future career at my
feet and and that he worshiped the
very ground upon which I trod. I
never imagined that he was capable of
such flights of eloquence before. He
just worked upon" my feelings so that I
had to accept him. It would have been
just barbarous to refuse such a wooer."
"Gwendolin Jane Green! You don't
mean to tell me that you positively ac
cepted Reginald Highflier last night.
Why, he proposed to me the very night
before, and I rejected him.
"O, yes, he told me all about it, dear.
HewasOnlypracticing with you before
hand, you see, so as to run no danger
of forgetting Anything when it came to
my turn. The darling boy confessed to
me that he was horribly frightened for
fear -that you would accept him. And
I think he was running a risk myself."

A Spirit Kiss.
Certain spiritual performances, to
which the narrator could testify, were
being related by an enthusiastic be
liever to a skeptic. Among other
things, he said that on one occasion the
spirit of his wife, who had been dead
several years, returned to him, and.
seating herself upon his knee, put hef
arms around him and kissed him, much
to his gratification, as she used "to do
when living.
"You do not mean to say," remarkea
the skeptic, "that the spirit of your
wife really embraced you and kissed
you !"
o, not exactlv that," ve-j,livL ene

sion of the female medium the future

A Phenomenal Freak
St. Louis, Oct 13. A local commis
sion merchant has brought to light a
phenomenon which is attracting the at
tention of scientists here. While one of
the employes of the house was dressing
a turkey he was dumbfounded to find
in its interior a live, well-formed young
turkey, as large as a full-grown pigeon.
ii is perfect in every way, excepting the
head, which was attached to tbe mother,
and is a fatty growth. The little turkey
died as soon as it was severed from its
dead mother. It was preserved in alco
hol and is now in the collection of tha
Missouri medical college, where it is at
tracting the attention of the medical
fraternity. 1
Something to Depend On.
Mr, James Jones, of the drug firm of
Jones & Son, Cowden, 111., in speaking
of Dr. King's New Discovery, says that
last winter his wife was attacked with
LaGrippe, and her case grew so serious
that physicians at Cowden and Pana
could do nothing for her. It seemed to
develop into Hasty Consumption. Hav
ing Dr. King's New Discovery in store,
and selling lots of it, he took a bottle
borne, and to the surprise of all she be
gan to get better from the first dose, and
half dozen dollar bottles cured her sound
and well. Dr. King's New Discovery
for Consumption, Coughs and Colds is
guaranteed to do this good work. Try

With the close of the Presidential Campaign THE TRIBUNE recognizes the
fact that the American people are now anxious to give their attention to home and
business interests. To meet this condition, politics will have far less epace and
prominence, until another State or National occasion demands a renewal of the
fight for the principles for which THE TRIBUNE has labored from its inception
to the present dav. and won its greatest victories.
Every possible effort will be put forth, and money freely spent, to make THE
