FINDS A PETRIFIED CAT.
Puss a Victim of Inhuman Workmen
in Louisville.
Louisville, Ky.. April 19. A petrified cat
"was found imbeded in one of the cellar
walls of the Frank Fehr Brewing com
pany's plant. It was in that part of the
brewery that was formerly occupied by
the old Otto Brewing company, and as
the wall was built fifteen years ago the
cat had certainly been in its tomb for that
number of years.
The freak was found by Fred Stengel,
an employe of the brewery, who brought
it upstairs, where it was placed on exhi
bition in the office. The formation of the
cat is perfect and a few tufts of hair still
adhere to its back. The tail, which Is
curved over the back, is thoroughly petri
fied. The ears and hide are not quite as
hard as rock, but are harder than raw
hide. The freak is attracting a great deal
of attention and the proprietors of the
brewery will probably place it in some
museum.
The theory is that the cat was walled
up in the bricks while it was alive by
some hard-hearted workman.
FOR IDENTIFYING DEAD.
War Department Has a SystemWhich
is Thought Good.
"Washington, April 19. The war depart
ment will adopt a system of Identification
of those who fall in battle in Cuba. The
experience of the late war showed that
many men who were killed were subse
quently buried by men of other organiza
tions and that the means of identification
were oftentimes lacking.
The suggestion likely to be adopted is
the issue of an aluminum tag to each man
which will be suspended about the neck
under the "clothing. This tag will bear
the numeral of which each name on the
rolls will be assigned and will also bear
the company and regiment to which the
wearer belongs. This will make identifi
cation, a simple matter.
Ice Breaking Up in the Yukon.
Vancouver, April 19. Word was re
ceived by the steamer Pakshan, which
arrived here yesterday, that the ice in
the Pelly and Yukon rivers is breaking
up. The ice is out in many places, and
seems to be fast breaking up. From Ft.
"Wrangell comes the news that the Sti
kine river is free from ice for sixty
miles.
I Marie Van Zandt to Marry.
Paris, France, April 19. It is on dit
here that Miss Marie Van Zandt, the
opera singer, formerly of Cincinnati, is
about to marry a great Russian noble
man. If true, this report will realize
those traditions according to which lyr
ic stars cast their last rays on a mar
riage generally adorned with armorial
bearings.
Mottl to Succeed SeidL
New York, April 19. Felix Mottl of
Carlsruhe has been engaged by Maurice
Gram to take the place at Covent Gar
den left vacant by the death of Anton
Seidl. He has been for years one of the
leading German conductors, and has
several times directed at Bayreuth. He
is an Austrian and has met with great
success in Paris and London.

STIFF AND NICE
POPULISTS QUARREL.
Second District Shows a Disposition
to Oust Congressman Peters.
It seems that the Populists of the Second
congressional district have fallen heir to
the squabble which the Republicans have
been wrestling with for several years.
Charles McCambridge, Congressman
Peters" political manager, who claims to
be chairman of the congressional commit
tee, called a meeting of the committee
at Ottawa Sunday, but no one was pres
ent. R. J. Mackey. who was assistant
state auditor under Van Prather, called a
meeting of the committee, at the same
time and the members responded to
Mac-key's call. It was agreed that the
committee should meet at Ottawa April
9 and fix the date and place for holding
the Second district convention.
This is a direct blow at Congressman
Peters, as Mr. Mackey leads the opposi
tion to him in Wyandotte county.
EAT A POISOX ROOT.
Two Laborers Die From the Effects of
Strange Plant.
Decatur. Ind., April 19. Sixteen labor
ers have been engaged for some time in
constructing a large ditch in this county.
While working today they dug up a pe
culiar looking root, which resembled small
sweet potatoes. They thought it was
sweet annis root and partook freely.
As a result two of the men. William
McVoy and Adam Ritinous, died within
an hour and several of the others are in
a precarious condition. Some of the
roots have been sent to the state geolo
gist, who wishes to make an examination
of them.
The men are all farmers.

IV HAT! NOT FRAU D ?
Nothing of This Kind Could Happen
in Kansas City, Kan., Politics,
Could ItP
The fact that the Second congressional
district convention will be held at Ottawa
May 2 will probably interfere with the
plans of Wvandotte county Republicans.
who are striving to stir up a fight against
W. J. Buchan. The sole reason why a
fight will not be started will be the lack
of time in which to organize it.
The first effort in this direction was
made Saturday when it was discovered
that C. W. Trickett and a crowd of anti-
Buchan men who were defeated at the
primaries and in the convention intended
to prepare and file before the district con
vention an enormous urotest against Bu-
Chan's candidacy, charging fraud at the
primaries.
When the secret leaked out and Eu
chan's friends traced up its origin the au
thors of the scheme denied it and stated
that they were standing by the agreement
made some months ago. to the effect that
the entire county would abide by tne re
suit of the primaries.
J. K. Cubbison. who was defeated by
Mr. Buchan. is supporting Buchan loyally
and every effort Is being made to prevent
a recurrence of the fighting of two years

AT MADRID.
Action at Washington is Anx
iously Awaited.
The Result of the Proposition
of Armistice
IS ALSO REGARDED
With Much Anxiety and But
Little Hope
Is Felt That It Will Result
Favorably.
Madrid, April 19. Governmental and
diplomatic circles are anxiously ex
pecting developments at Washington.
The cabinet council is sitting to dis
cuss the text of the speech from the
throne, to elect a number of life sena
tors and to settle other parliamentary
details, for the coming session. The
town is tranquil.
El Correro, Ministerial, says: "It is
reported from Washington that in the
event of the senate's resolution prevail
ing President McKinley will avail him
self of his privilege of ten days ere giv
ing the resolution his approval, provid
ed ne does not employ the veto. Amid
much excitement the note of war with
Spain prevails at Washington: but
further delays will probably occur, ow
ing to parliamentary routine or Presi
dent McKinley's vacillation."
El Epoca, discussing the question of
privateering says:
"Spain cannot lawfully be prevented
by Europe from employing the right,
having reserved her liberty of action
at the time of the declaration of Paris,"
All circles are exercised intensely in
expectation of the result of the visit to
the insurgent camp of the commission
ers of the insular government. By
most people this commission is consid
ered a forlorn hope, and the general
public anticipates the worst.
El Heraldo, pointing to the position of
Senor Polo y Bernabe, at Washington,
says:
"Spain's minister is stopping his ears
and closing his eyes while the govern-1
ment to which he is accredited passes
a resolution, ignoring his country's pre
scriptive right."
It is asserted on good authority that
the mission to the insurgent camp is
limited to an offer to the insurgent
chief to recognize their present grades
In the future insular army, after the
withdrawal of the Spanish forces from
Cuba, "which will remain under the
protectorate of Spanish rule with a
governor preferentially a civilian."
It is said that the parliament about
to assemble will sanction this arrange
ment. The cabinet council, after reading the
last dispatch received by Senor Gullon,
the foreign minister. Admiral Bermajo,
minister of marine, and Lieutenant
General Corret, minister of war, ap
proved the speech from the throne as
drafted.
Much indignation has been caused In
English speaking circles in Madrid by
an "unwarrantable attack upon Gen
eral Stewart L. Woodford, appearing In
two issues of an American journal."
The American's courtesy is much ap
preciated by all in English speaking
circles, and especially by the newspa
per representatives.
While maintaining the high level of
America's diplomatic reputation, he has
done so without losing personally the
esteem of the people to whose court he
is credited.
PLACE KEPT OPEN.
For Employes of the Treasury Depart
ment Who Desire to Go to War.
Washington, April 19. Secretary
Gage has issued a circular in which he
states that in case any officer, clerk
or employe,, under the treasury depart
ment desires to leave the service tem
porarily to engage in the military ser
vice in the event of war, he may be re
instated at any time, within one year.
Temporary appointments will be made
to fill places so vacated with the under
standing that upon the return of the
employe the temporary olerk will be
removed so that the former occupant of
the place can be reinstated.
WE HAVE ALL WE CAN GET. 4
Mo More Battleships Likely to be
Bought by United States.
Washington, April 19. It was stated
at the navy department that the ef
forts to secure the Chilean battleship
O'Higgins has been practically aband
oned and that there is no longer any
prospect that the United States de
sires, or will be able to secure any more
warships, either belonging to foreign
nations, or being built in foreign ship
yards. Assistant Secretary Roosevelt
said this afternoon that it was more
than probable that the department
would donfine its efforts in this di
rection to the acquirement of yachts,
tugs and small craft generally for the
purpose of the auxiliary navy.
A PLACE FOE. SICABD.
He Will Have a Position in Secre
tary Long's Office.
1 Washington, April 19. Probably
with the view of availing himself of the
large experience of Rear Admiral Si
card, Secretary Long has revoked the
sick leave of that officer and ordered
him to duty in his own office at the na
vy department. The admiral is at his
home in New York state and is expect
ed to report at hte department within
the next 24 hours. Being familiar with
every detail of construction and
strength and weakness of the fleet of
Capt. Sampson's command as well as
those now lying at Hampton Roads un
der command of Commodore Schley,
the admiral is expected to be of great
assistance to the department in the ar
rangements of any plans of campaign.
SPANIARDS TO LEAVE.
They Prepare to Leave All American
Cities.
Washington, April 19. Acting under
instructions from the Spanish minister
here, the Spanish consuls in the vari
ous parts of the country are making ar
rangements for the departure of the
Spanish colonists in their several local
ities. Arrangements are now conclud
ed for the departure of the Spanish res
idents in Boston, about 30 in number.
Similar arrangements have been made
as to the Spanish colony in New York.
This general movement is not inspired
by any fear of indignity or fear, but is
due to the customary rule of proced
ure. WILL SHE EVER CROSS P

Falmouth, Eng., April 19. The United
States torpedo boat Somers,. purchased
for the American government in Ger-
many which has twice had to make
port while on her voyage to the United
States, collided yesterday afternoon
with the masonery at the entrance of
the dock, in which she? was being placed
for repairs, defects in her machinery
having made her leak in several places.
As a - result of this .accident the
stem of the . Somers was smashed,
which means that there will be further
delay in putting her in shape for anoth-
er start.
Kansas Troops' Transportation.
Chicago, April 19. The Illinois Cen

or Wednesday. There will be five trains
for the former, made up of 2 Pullmans,
16 coaches, 32 stock cars, 12 box cars
and 9 flat cars. The men from Fort
Leavenworth go in 1 Pullman and 7

15 stock cars, 5 box cars and 2 flat cars.
GOELET IS IN PERIL.
His Yacht May Be Seized and a Fine
Imposed.
JJew York, April 19. Collector of
Customs Bidwell today received instruc
tions from Assistant Secretary of State
Day to detain In this port Robert Goe
let's steam yacht Nahma upon its ar
rival and summon its owner to show
cause why he should not be fined $1,000
and imprisoned for six months.
The state department charges Mr.
Goelet with having abandoned five of
his sailors on March 3 last in Barba
does, leaving them without money or
means of returning home. The infor
mation upon which the charge is
brought is contained in a letter from
Samuel A. Macallister, United States
consul at Barbadoes, a copy of which
was obtained at the state department
in Washington. The letter reads as
follows:
"Barbadoes, March 3, 1898. The Sec
retary of State, Washington, D. C.,
Sir: I have the honor to report that the
American yacht Nahma, owned by
Robert Goelet, arrived at this place on
February 28, and cleared for Trinidad
with British bill of health at 7:30 a. m.
this day, leaving here five of its sea
men namely: William Bilney, Freder
ick James Cox, Alexander Frazier,
James Gleafield and Alexander Mcln
tyre. I inclose herewith a copy of the
statements under oath of the seamen.
"They are entirely destitute, and un
der the decision of the first controller,
as set forth in the department of state's
circular of September 29, 18S7, I have ta
ken charge of the men, will furnish
them with board and necessaries, and
will send them to New York at the first
opportunity.
"The seamen state that there is a con
siderable amount of money due them
from the yacht as wages. No notice
was given at this consulate of the in
tended departure of the yacht, or rela
tive to these men who reported to me on
my arrival at the consulate this morn
ing. Yours, etc.,
"SAMUEL A. MACALLISTER,
United States Consul."
The five seamen state in their affida
vit that they obtained "shore leave" on
the evening of March 2, from 8 to 10
o'clock. They returned to the dock,
where one of the yacht's boats was to
met, them, a few minutes late and
found no boat. They had no money
and harbor boatmen refused to take
them to the Nahma. The yacht sailed
the following morning, ignoring their
frantic signals.
Collector Bidwell today issued an or
der of detention against the Nahma and
her owner, but was informed the yacht
sailed from Newport today for Liver
pool. The United States officials are
particularly annoyed because the Nah
ma ignored the American consul at
Barbadoes.
Mr. Goelet is charged with violating
section 6,363 of the revised statutes,
which makes it an offense for a ship
owner or master to sail from a foreign
port leaving any of his crew, except
deserters, behind. In case of deserters
the ship's master Is required to notify
the American consul, and with him in
stitute a dilligent search for the men
before sailing.
DONATED BY O. H. PAYNE.
Source of the Gift to Cornell of a Med
ical College.
Ithaca, N. Y April 19. The philan
thropist who has made such a royal
gift to Cornell university in the form of
a medical college to be located in New
York is Col. Oliver H. Payne, a multi
millionaire of New York City.
This fact, while not given out by
President Schurman, was stated today
by one who learned it from an official
source. The new benefactor is the
third who has put Cornell on the road
to fame by money donations, and the
new department will be by no means
the least famous of the university's
numerous colleges. .

Columbus Man's Grief Over the Death
of His Canine.
Columbus, Ohio, April 19. A. J. Che
valier, a Frenchman, and resident of
Columbus, is grieving over the death of
a favorite dog, called Diana. Out of
respect for its decease he placed crepe
on his door and will give the canine a
first class funeral.
The body of Diana was placed in a
pretty white coffin, bearing a silver
plate suitably inscribed, and prepared
for burial. He wanted to lay the re
mains in his yards, but the health de
partment forbade it. Mr. Chevalier has
requested a local minister to deliver the
funeral oration, and has closed his bus
iness until after the interment. About
60 employes of the grief stricken man
will attend the funeral services.

MAINE VICTIM'S WIDOW
Loved by . a Man Who Raises a Row
Because She Won't Wed Him.
Jersey City, N. J., April 19. Mrs. Ber
tha Campbell, widow of David Campbell
one of the sailors of the Maine, was
complainant in the police court today
against Gustave Titus. After Camp
bell had enlisted Mrs. Campbell opened
a boarding house at No. 140 Eighth
street and Titus went to live there. Mrs.
Campbell told Justice Potts that he
showed her much attention, but did
not become offensive in his advances
until after the wreck of the Maine,
when he became profuse in his declara
tions of admiration and love and in
truded on the widow's sorrow to such
an extent as to make his presence pos
itively distasteful, and insisted that the
widow should marry "him. Then she
ordered him from the house.
Last night Titus appeared at the
house, it is alleged, in an intoxicated
condition and again demanded that the
widow should become his wife. He
became boisterous and proceeded to
wreck the house. Policeman Cox ar
rested Titus and Justice Potts held him
in $500 bail for trial on a charge of ma
licious mischief.
HIS SILVER JUBILEE.
Archbishop Corrigan to Be Honored
by Catholic Church, ...
New York, April 19. The approaching
celebration of the episcopal silver jubilee
of Archbishop Corrigan will be one of the
most notable events in the recent history
of .the Catholic church in this city.
The movements toward this end began
at a recent meeting of the foremost Cath

effect.
It was determined' that the first day of
the celebration. May 4, should be devoted

cathedral, at which, perhaps, the great
est representation of the clergy of the
archdiocese ever seen in this city will be
present. On Thursday evening. May 5,

ception to the archbishop in the Metro
