methods pursued by the commissioner
appointed by the three foreign powers,
the United Siates, England and Germany,
in the application of funds received lor
'axes. The complaint is made that the
tax fund is consumedin the payment of

his appointee?, and that tin y gel no re

this reason an ortl r will he sent by the

waters indefinitely. The Mohican and
tne Hunger will be kept iu readiness at
San Francisco for service in Honolulu the
moment it becomes apparent that the
Button requires reinforcements.
Woman's Awful Crime.
St. Peterrburo, Nov. 11 A horrible
story of cannibalism comes Irom iiess
arabia. A woman named Akkerman, a
giantess in st.ture and strength, applied
for sbeltet at the house ot a peasant
woman named xooreski sariera. lney
became friendly and the peasant went
out to get a Iresh supply ot vodka when
one lot gave out. In her absence A'vker-
nian killed the peasant's babv, sacked its
blood and devoured part of its body. As
the peasant reentered the hut, she saw
Akkerman trying to kill her 3 year old
girl. The mother tried to defend her off
spring, but tbe giantess thrust her aside
and killed the little girl with a bludgeon.
Tbe peasant, left a ravmg maniac, tried
to kill herself. Tbe neighbors, after a
desperate struggle, in which several were
severely hurt, managed, to overcome the
giantess, and tied her with ropes. On
tbe way to jail tbe populace tried to
lynch her, but she waa finally landed in
tbe lock np.
Mysteriuns Mower of Insects.
Oaudalajara, Mexico, Nov. 11 A
correspondent at Mazamitia says that tbe
inhabitants of a small place known as La
Puerta Zapatora, between Mazamitia and
Zapatlay, were thrown into tbe utmost
ODSternation recently by the appearance
of a heavy, lowering cloud, wbicb bung
over their lut e village. The terror in
creased when it burst, and amid torrents
ot rain there lei 1 myriads of little insects.
such as bad never been Eeen in tbat
country. Special religious services were
held in all the cburcbee, and all the in
babitants flocked together in what they
considered their only place of catetv. It
was after ward learned tbat tbe same phe
nomenon bad been repeated two days
later at the teame place and for a distance
of three leagues aronnd about, and that
the people were becoming accustomed to
tbe curious occurrence.
Ills Fifth Harder. -
Seattle, Wash., Nov. 11 Nicholas
Straeeoer, a blacksmith at Gilraan, died
to-day of a pistol shot wound inflicted by
John Brack le, about 4 o'clock Wednesday
morning. Strassner and two other men,
all drunk, were fighting with John Gib
son, also drank, when Bxackie came up
and fired at Strassner. Tbe bullet passed
right through ' the body from tbe ngbt
armDit to tbe left breast, and dropped
out into tbd coat, but strangely did not
touch tbe heart or any bone. Brackle
was arrested with the smoking revolver
ia his hand and brought to jail here.
Strassner lingered in great agony and
died of Internal hemorrhages. No cause
for the shooting is known except tbat
Brackle is a bad man and since the shoot
ing has boasted that this is the fifth man
he has shot.
. A Bloody Election Fight.
Johnson Citt, TennM Nov. 11 News
reaches here of the bloodiest election
fight on record . at tbe polls at Big Bock
creek, Mitchell county, N. C, between
Republican factions. George K. Pritcb
ard, Republican nominee for sheriff, was
opposed by Isaac McKenney, indepen
dent Republican, who was defeated for
tbe Domination by a small majority. The
canvass was very bitter. Tbe fight was
precipitated by ope of McEnney's ad-
hereota knocking down bis opponent.
Immediately tbe whole crowd of 50 took
sides, and a desperate battle ensued.
Stones, knives and pistols were used with
terrible e fleet : Twenty were wounded,
of whom four will die. The whole pop
ulation is in arms, and more bloodshed
is expected.
JHileh Cow Poisoned.
Spangle, Wash., Nov. 11 An attempt
to murder a family by poisoning tbe fam
ily milk cow' waB made here yesterday.
The cow was the property of W. 6. Rich
ardson, a jeweler ot Spangle, and but for
the fact tbat it was discovered to be sick
and poison ionnd in the feed before the
milk was used, tbe entire family would
have been poisoned. An examination of
the milk showed it to be sufficiently
drugged to do the deadly work. Mr.
Richardson thinks he bas a clue to tbe
perpetrators, and offers $100 reward for
their arrest.
Str-anc np Cblnaman.
Pobt Townsend, Wash., Nov. 11 At
4 o'clock this morning three desperadoes
committed a dastardly assault on a Chin
ese rancher about tjto miles from the
city. Tbey flogged the MongolifiD and
then strung him up to a beam inside the
barn. It appears the men are smugglers
and had buried some opium on tbe
Chinaman's ranch, wbicb was found and
stolen. Tbe men, returning for tbeir
opium and findiog it gone, set upon tbe
Chinaman, demanding information of its
whereabouts, and, being told be knew
nothing about it, they strung him up and
left bim for dead, but another Chinaman
cot him down. One ot the desperadoes J
nas Deen arresiea. ah are Known,
The People Accused.
Paris, Nov. 11 Louise Michel bas
been interviewed in London by tbe cor
respondent of tbe Eclair in regard to tbe
last explosion. She said tbat tbe police
sought to do evil only that thev might
get money, and if such retribution over
took tbem ottener tbey might tire of
bunting down honest men. The whole
affair was due to tbe stupidity of the po
lice, who thought tbey could get more
money 'it by putting up jobs witb bombs
tbey could frighten tbe cowardly bour
geoisie into believing tbat tbe police were
tbeir only saviors. Tbe Eclair states
that Michel has been engaged to address
tbe workingmen'd conference in Chicago.
Shoocins; In Allen.
TaCOMA, WashnNov. 11. At Allen, on
North bay, last Monday, John Vincent,
while under the influence of liquor, fired
three revolver shots into tbe street. One
struck a 6. A. R. veteran named Phillips
in the shoulder, ana came out at Dis
back. Another pierced Mrs. Puillips'
drees, not injuring her. Philips will
probably die. Vincent was not arrested,
though Constable Cole, of Alleu, is said
to have seen the whole affair. Vincent is
a hard character. -
The A'ext Conicrrss.
Washington, Nov. 13. The election
just held will also have an important
bearing on the control of the senate dur-
lDg tbe last two years of President elect
Cleveland's administration, for a number
of those elected last Tucsduv will hold
over to vote for senators two years hence
The terms of 27 senators expiie March 4
1895. They come from :
Alabamn, Arkansas, Colorado, Dela
ware, Georgia, Idaho. Illinois, Iowa, Keu-
tucKy, Louisiana, Aiaine, Massachusetts,
Michigan. Minnesota, Montana, Ne
braeka, New Hampshire, New Jersey,
North Caroling, Oregon, Rhode Island,
bouth (Jaro inn, South Dakota, Tenn
essee, Texas, West Virginia and Wjom'
mg
The Democrats appear also to have the
advantage as respects these vacancies.
As disclosed by last Tuesday's election.
the states of Colorado, Delaware, Illinois,
Montana, Nebraska and Wyoming are at
least doubllul, and any addition at this
time to tbe doubtful list would be of Ke
publican states All of tbe six states
named as doubtful are at present repre
sented by Republican senators, so that
all of them must be retained for the Re
publicans to remain as strong two years
hence as now, providing, ot course, the
whirligig of politics does not bring about
a change in their favor that will knock
to pieces all ordinary political calcula
tions. The senate Marcb 4 next will con
sist of 44 Democrats, 40 Republicans and
4 Populists.
An Inhuman Tramp.
Bradford, Pa., Nov. 13 John Leg-
gett, a 14 -year old boy, . died at bis
mother's home here to night from burns
that covered him from bead to foot.
This evening a tramp sought shelter in
an oia sued wuicd the boys used tor a
playhouse. Young Leggett expostulated
with the intruder, and the tramp seized
a bucket ot c ude petroleum standing by
and dashed it over the boy in such way
tbat what did not strike bim went into
an ODen lire blazing on tbo ground near
tbe shed. Tbe flames, leaving from tbe
nre to tbe little fellow's saturated cloth
ing, enveloped him in a moment. Tbe
tad screamed for belp, and a railroad em-
p'oye rushed to his relief, but in spite of
a gallant fight the clothing burned off
tne boy before tbe nre wis smothered.
ueunous, ana raving wildly witn pain,
the little chap was carried into bis
mother's home and died a few hours later.
Tbe tramp was afterward caught near tbe
railroad roundhouse. A crowd of angry
men were making active preparations to
lyncb bim wben tbe olucers arrived and
a struggle began for tbe possession of the
prisoner, f inally the conservative ele
ment prevailed, and tbe terror stricken
wretch was surrendered to tbe antborities.
Finally ttrasped by the French.
Pabis, Nov, 13. The French public is
just beginning to grasp the significance
of tbe result of the election in the United
States. Tbe financial columns of the
daily preps and financial organs declare
Democratic success will give a Dew im
petus to trade and will bring additional
capital into business throughout the
world, aod will add much fuel to the
smouldering agitation against McKinley
protection in France. One of tbe leading
papers warns Europe that it the Demo
crats lower tbe tariff in America, America
will become redoubtable, unless Europe
adopts tree trade. High duties on Amer
ican products, it says, will intensify the
evil and complete tbe ruin ot tbe coun-
ries of Europe.

Gaskell. charged with the shooting, will
be tried at tbe term ol court now in ses
sion. Threats of lynching were indulged
in at Milton before tbe departure of tbe
sheriff with the prisoners, and it is be
lieved tbat an attempt would have been
made to carry them into' execution, had
Petrie s death been learned ia time. An
inquest was held to day at tbe scene of
the murder. Doctors Plimelt and Hilt,
Deputy District Attorney Hailey and
Deputy Sheriff Ritcben were present. -

tents of 200 toDS of bay, by fire Wednes
day night. The barn was situated on a
bay ranch two miles north of town, and
no one occupied tbe place at tbe time.
Tbe loss is about 13000. The origin of
tbe fire is supposed to be tbe work of in

ical enemies. Mr. Myers was tbe suc
cessful independent candidate lor com
missioner. Five hundred dollars reward
bas been offered for tbe apprehension of
tbe offenders.
