The statement is made from a semiofficial source that there would be no execution to day, and that it would occur in all likelihood at daybreak to-morrow. Gladstone's Health Is Not Good. London, July 6. Notwithstand ing lavorable reports from Air. Gladstone, the leading liberals do not expect to see him oack in bis seat until July 31.

An Alabama Bank Vailed. Montgomery, Ala.,' July 6. Mosers Bros.' bank suspended pay ment this morning. They say their assets will amount to more than the liabilities. Neither figures can yet be approximately esti mated. The failure is due to a stringency of money. The liabili ties are said to be about 50J,000. They did a sayings-bank business and bad scores of depositors among the poorer people. There is a great throng of them around the doors of the bank this evening. A local bank last Saturday otTeied Mosers Bros. $100,000 to tide over the crisis, but they refused to take it.

OLD WORLD AFFAIRS RUSSIA AND IKY M!K 1:1---l'I.KASKI YI I IS i;.iI.AN!l. It Has Grown Out of the Cordiali ty of the British Reception to the Kaiser. London, July '. A Paris dis patch says that a profound impres sion has been created thpre by the enthusiasm aid cordiality of the British reception to the kaiser. It is universally regarded as proof that England will be found with the triple alliance in a European war, and France and Russia will have to calculate on the hostility of the British fleet. The public sen timet t is very Ftrong ayain.-t England, and almost no other Klitical matter is a topic of pub lic discussion. There is no con cealment of the feeling that the odils against France and Russia have been increased to a degree that arouses great apprehensions as to the ossible re-ult of a war and wnile this has with many a tendency to discourage war-like agitation, others urge an early quarrel lefore the dreibund be comes solidified, and while Eng land is not bound by formal agree ment to sustain the cause of the alliance. The answer of Russia to the renewal of the triple alli ance has been the aJdrion of t wo more regiments to the force in Volhynia near the Austrian frou- ier, and increased activity in the -instruction of ircn-clads. The .ussian government, says a Y'ienna dispatch, is not believed to be ready for a conflict at this time, or likely to be ready in the course of this year. All indica tions point to the strengthening of fleet and army for a dite bevond 1891. Union Pacific Railway Statement. Boston, July G.

A CYCLONE'S FURY. It Sweeps Away a Portion of Baton Rouge. MANY KILLED AND WOUNDED, The P.nitDDtUry Walls Blown Djwn Tha Pstb of the Dsadly Blast. Baton Roloe, La., July 6. A cyclone passed over the lower por tion of the town this morning, unroofit g houses, tearing up im mense trees and carrying pieces of the wreck through the air for many blocks. The boulevard is iitteied with trees that were torn up by the wind, and pieces of house tops and other timbers. The penitentiary walls were blown down. Ten persons were killed and thirty wounded. The factory building is demolished, and the hospital and penitentiary are a mass of ruins. The steam ship Smoky City was blown to pieces, there being nothing left nut the hull. Several of the crew were badly injured. THE KARMEK9 ALLIANCE, A Rupture In Minnesota Over Dis honest Leaders, Northkiei.d, July G. There is every evidence of a rupture in the ran-isofthe farmers alliance in Southern Minnesota owing, it is alleged, to the perpetration of an outrageous swindle by several of the leaders. For a year or two the members have been furnished, through the alliance, with farming implements, twine, etc., at a sup posed reduction in price. The greatest saving was on the twine. It is true that the twine has been supplied at a bi reduction, but an investigation mad by a suspicions alliance man has developed a startling anil nios bare-faced swindle. The alliance traders had liought a cheap article of sisal i wine and had it colored the color of pure manilla and sold for that ar ticle, giving the seller a very large margin. It is said that $15,000 had ben made out of the swindle thus worked upon the purchasers. The farmers are verv indignant, and there is a possibility that the whole fabric of the alliance will succumb in the storm that has been raised. GOING TO EUROPE. Thousands of Americans Crossing the Atlantic. New York, July 6. There is still no sign of thinninif in the ranks of the vast army of tourists and travelers of all sorts and con ditions that is steadily moving Eur jpeward. Every week new recruits swell the list of the big passenger fleet, and it is safe to -ay that at least 100,000 persons, big and little, have left this port on transatlantic steamships since May 1st. On live steamships sail ing to-day were 1051 saloon and cabin passengers, an increase of more than 300 over the number sailing one week ago. On the French steamship Le Bretagne, bound for Havre, were 298 saloon passengers. The Umbria carried 398, the Alter 215, the Spaarndam 1G5 for Rotterdam, the Alaska for Liverpool 300 and the City of Rome for Liverpool 416. Russian Officials Involved. London, July G. The inY'es'i gation into the kidnaping of Rus sian wemen near the Turkish Asiatic frontier has, it is sail, pointed clearly to complicity on the part of the Russian local authorities, who have been deriv ing a lucrative traffic in aiding Turkish slave traders to abduct females from Russia for sale to Turkish harems. As the inves tigations if pursued, would strike persons high in public favor and valued for their services in other respects, it is understood the in quiry will end in a warning to local officials that the kidnapping nni:,t be .discontinued under peril of future punishment. A flairs in Haytl. New York, July 6. The Atlas line steamer Alvena, which ar riYed here to-day from Jeramie and other West Indian ports, brings some interesting Havtian news.

THE CHINE.SE GOVERNMENT WILL NOT ACCEPT HIM. The Mongolians Still Object to Bis Attitude on the Chinese (Jaes tlon A Dilemma. Washington, July 6. Mr. Hen ry W. Blair has been again turned down by the Chinese government. Mr. Blair, it will be rememlered, was nominated to the Chinese mis sion during the closing days of the last session of congress. Simulta neously' with the president's ac tion the Chinese legation forward ed to Pekin a complete abstract of Mr. Blair's record on the Chinese question. After it had been read and considered, the imperial gov ernment decided that it wonld not receive Mr. Blair, and a cablegram to that effect was immediately for warded to its minister here. " A reply was sent to China in hope, presumably, that when Li Hung Chun; found how anxious the administration was about it ' lie might relent and consent to re ceive the New Hampshire states man. The Chinese premier's re ply react. ed Washington a few days ago. It was intended to keep it a clo-e secret, but its contents leaked out to-day. They entered a polite, but none the less a firm refusal to accept Mr. Blair as our diplomatic representative. What action the administration will take is problematical. Mr. Blair took" the oath of office on March 4, and since that time he has been draw- . ing the salary attached to that mit eion, $12,000 per annum.
