The Lords Warned.
Edinburgh, Sept. 27.-The Right Hon. W.
E. Gladstone arrived here at 4.30 p. m. ana
was met at the railway station by a recep-
tion committee. Mr. Gladstone looked well
and strong and bowed right and left to the
people, who cheered him until the windows
shook. After exchanging a few words or
greeting with the reception committee lie
was escorted to Albert halli wheie he e
llvered a home rule speech.
When Mr. Gladstone had been introduced
to the representatives of Midlothian ana
was able to commence his speech he began
In a low, firm voice. Such was the respect
shown the aged premier that no sooner
was it evident that he had commenced
speaking than a deathlike stillness fell
over the audience. Those who expected to
hear the great liberal leader open up with
an onslaught upon the house of lords were
considerably disappointed. in the ear >
part of the speech he gave no induction
that It was his intention to make tin.
long expected attack upon the 0PP°r
He began bv saying that he n°Pe<'
some Scotch legislation before the end of
the year which would be of benefit _
Scotland at large and the poor crofters In
particular. The Irish questlon. contimied
Mr Gladstone, barred progress in that
direction and it was only Jnsttosay the
lords were responsible for the fac.l of this
barrier still remaining. Continuing, Mr.
Gladstone said the question of home rule
for Ireland was rapidly coming upon them,
and he hoped that should at any .time .an
occasion arise for soliciting thtir
thev would be given In a -way not to undo
or dishonor the commanding strength of
the liberals in Midlothian. He then rea/i
nn extract from a speech by tne K.ir-<ni
Hon. 'Joseph Chamberlain nine years ago
denouncing the house of '.ords„f ?h~„nr>er
said Chamberlains description of the UPP^^
house, although greatly exaggerated, was
'"He'spoke an hour and a half and at the
conclusion of his remarks said. If tne
house of lords were ever the means of
forcing a dissolution of parliament It fnlfcht
depend upon it the Irish question would not
be the only question considered, but their
own Independent and Irrespons ble resist-

point, and garrisoned the fort with a por-
tion of her crew. Cliantlbul Is 011 the river

from Bangkok.
SITUATION AGAIN STRAINED.
London, Sept. 27.—The Times has a dis-
patch from Bangkok saying that the situ-
ation there Is again strained, owing to the
dictatorial attitude of M. de Villlers, the
special envoy of France at the capital of
Slam The Times' dispatch adds that
De Villlers is evidently determined to force
oth'-r concessions from Slam, which coun-
try, by supreme efforts, has fulfilled the
principal conditions Imposed upon It by
the French.
VIENNA ANARCHISTS.
Vienna, Sept. 27.-A number of anarch-
ists' pamphlets printed In the Czech lang-
uage and entitled "Vengeance Cries
Aloud," were found In the streets to-

MURDER IN THE EXCHANGE
A I'USILADE TIRED INTO THE CHI-
CAGO WHEAT PIT.
No Figure of Spaeoh in the Matter, but a
Reckless Taking of Human Life by
a Man Evidently Insane.
Chicago, 111., Sept. 27.-A fusilade of bul-
lets was fired into the wheat pit on the
board of trade to-day. Instantly activeness
was brought to a standstill and the wild-
est excitement ensued.
A. M. Bannett, broker, received a fright-
ful and fatal wound in the neclc.
Charles Hose well, a telegraph operator,
was shot in the chin. Little hppes are given
for his recovery.
The man who did the shooting was evi-
dently a lunatic, a stout man, of middle
age, poorly dressed, and for a time refused
to give any name but "Chicago." Subse-
quently he gave the name Casslus Belaen,
of .%5 La Salle avenue, Chicago.
Business was completely suspended and
everything was consternation. Belden
gained access to the gallery a few minutes
before noon, lie fired at random into the
throng of spectators. A. M. Bannett is
secretary of the Board of Trade Mutual
Benefit association. Bannett was shot In
the neck, the bullet ranging downward,
while Rosewell received a ball In the chin,
shattering his whole face.
The man who did the shooting lired Ave
times, twice at the wall and then pointing
the weapon downward toward the floor,
he fired three more times.
Thomas Barrett, member of the board
of trade, captured the man and handed
him over to the police. The latter took the
a confeasion, now refuses to sign the
same. He gained time by the confession
and secured a continuance of the case ana
all the witnesses returned to Texaa.

DETROIT PEOPLE KILLED.
Detroit, Mich., SepT"27.-A telegram re-
ceived this morning from Bellevuo, Mich.,
announces the killing of Mr. and Mrs.
Henry Land of this city and bad injuring
of Howard Meredith and wife, also of De-
troit, in a wreck on the Grand Trunk rail-
road at that place this morning. Grand
Trunk train No. 5 was run into by the
Lake Erie express bound to Chicago. The
cook and porter of the private car and one
other passenger, name not known, were
also seriously injured.
MISSISSIPPI COTTON REPORT.
Memphis, Tenn., Sept. 27.-The past week
has been a favorable one in every respect,
says the Mississippi crop bulletin Issued
at Vicksburg. Worms are still plentiful in
cotton and doing sonv- damage, but aside
fiom this the crop is doing well.
Warmth and sunshine have opened the
bolls rapidly and there Is apparently no
scarcity of field hands, as farmers keep
right up with picking, and most of the hill
crop is reported harvested.

On the first platform, somewhere about
150 feet in the air, will be a concert hall
with 110,000 feet square of floor space and
capable of accommodating an audience of
2000 or 2000 people. At a height of about
•100 or 500 feet there will be another plat-
form of smaller dimensions, and here will
be another hall. On both levels there will
be ample accommodations for "refresh-
ments.'' , ,
There will be restaurants and in one
way or another room will be found for 150
or 200 shops and stalls, and In addition to
these there will be various kinds of- "side
p'le swarmed through the building.
Belden, who did the shooting, Is a brother
of T. A. Belden, a board speculator. Do-
mestic trouble unseated his mind five years
ago, and lie was only a few months ago
released from the Kankakee insane asy-
lum. He acted to-day under the belief that
his brother was being robbed by other
traders on 'change.
BRAINS SHOT OUT.
Pleasanton, Tex., Sept. 27.-Saturday
night Pad Grlffln, an industrious farmer
living near Lytle In the northwestern part
of this county, was assassinated In his
house. A pistol ball was shot through his
head, but he was not found until Sunday
He added that ihe nation had given the
liberals authority and that with the help
of the Almighty they would find means
to reach the goal. [Tremendous applause.]
DEFEAT OF THE TORPEDOROS.
Buenos Ayres, Sept. 27.-The battle yes-
terday between rebel torpedo boats and the
government men of war was a most excit-
ing skirmish. The rebels hoped to catch
the government fleet unawares tind blow-
several of them out of the water. The
rebels had been for some time laying plans
for the onslaught. They originally intended
to make the attack at night, but the care-
ful guard kept by the war vessels by the
use of search lights and patrol boats, kept
them at a distance. Still they would proba-
bly have made1 the attack at night, but
thev were spurred to desperation by the
news of the government's success at Tu-
cumen, and In tact they received Informa-
tion that their plans were discovered.
The boats of the rebels, unaware of the
measures taken to give them a warm re-
Ception, steamed out of their places of con-
cealment at the appointed time, circled
around a little and then at a given signal
made a dash for'the men of war, expect-
ing to find the crews totally unprepared
for battle. To their surprise, however,
hardly had they gotten within range when
the warships opened fire upon them in the
most lively manner possible. Nothing
daunted, the rebel boats returned the fire
in a most determined manner and continued
to press onward beneath the hall of rapid
firing bullets which fell upon the boats,
wounding and killing many officers and
men. The rebel fire was also effective, as
there was loss of life among the officers
and crews of the warships attacked. But
the result of the battle was not long in
doubt. The torpedo boats came to a stand-
still. Then was hoisted by the flagship the
Blgnal to "lower boats and attack, ' and
the boats of the warships were lowered in
pursuit of the enemy. Then began des
perate fighting between the crews.
The rebels eventually made for land in
the hope of escaping with their lives. Some
reached the shore in safety but the ma-
jority were captured.
ESPINA TO BE SHOT.
Buenos Ayres, Sept. 27.—Generals Ravalle
and Arribondo are marching with strong
forces against the rebels in the provinces
of Cordoba, San Luis and Tucumen. The
national guards distributed from Entre Rios
to Buenos Ayres have been ordered to con-
centrate in Rosario.
General Espina has been condemned to
be shot.
The insurgent forces in Santa Fe have
been routed and the leaders made prisoner*.
Argentine vessels in this harbor remain
loyal.
The state of siege at Rio de Janeiro ha»
been prolonged for a fortnight. A session
of congress has been closed.
The federalists in Rio Grande do Sul have
taken Quarahy.
SEIZED AN OLD SHIP.
Buenos Ayres, Sept. 27.—Another sensa-
tion was caused here to-day in naval cir-
cles. Some of the rebel sailors concerned
directly or indirectly in the torpedo boat
attack upon the government warships
have seized the old Ironclad Andes which
was lying discharged and out of commls-
«lon, and getting up steam unobserved,
steamed away to Rosario before the gov-
ernment vessels could intercept the old
ahip. The government sent two torpedo
boats In pursuit of the Andes and it Is
believed the rebels will be captured and
brought back.
THE CHARLESTON AT RTO.
Washington, Sept. 27.—The United States
cruiser Charleston arrived at Rio de Ja-
neiro last evening. A dispatch to this ef-
fect was received at the state department
this morning. The message contained
nothing regarding the bombardment of the
city, nor did it give any information as to
the situation.
THE DAMAGE AT RIO.
London, Sept. %J—A private telegram re-
ceived here by an important bank from Rio
de Janeiro says the bombardment of that
city by the rebel fleet was so serious that
the banks of Rio, after consulting to-
gether, have decided that they will proba-
bly close altogether until the fate of the
capital of Brazil is settled.
This determination was brought about
by the fact that a clerk In the London and
Brazilian bank at Rio was killed yester-
day by a shell which fell through the
bank building.
Fort Santa Cruz at entrance to the bay
is still said to be holding out.
THE COW IN INDIA.
Calcutta, Sept. 26.—A religious riot which
may have serious consequences occurred
here to-day. A number of Hindoos espied
a cow on Clive street being led to the
butcher's, and this being offensive to their
religious ideas the Hindoos siezed upon
the cow in spite of the protests of the man
leading It, and a lively row followed. The
Europeans took the part of the cow and
Its leader, and the offended Hindoos were
reinforced by many sympathizers. Finally
when a desperate riot was becoming inevi-
table, a Mohammedan gentleman and the
Hindoo zemindar succeeded in pacifying the
crowd, and eventually a fund was raised
by Hindoo spectators for the purchase of
the animal, which was led away by the
Hindoo.
Englishmen here regard the apparently
trivial incident as most significant and
likely to hav« grave results.
PAKNAM, SI AM, CAPTURED.
Paris. Sept. 27.—A dispatch from Chanti-
J)Ul. Slam, dat«d September 15, via Singa-
pore, to-day, says the French cruiser Alou-
shows " A third platform will he reached ! morning. A friend called to see him and

60,000 visitors a day. The tower will be a
light looking and graceful structure of
open steel work, rising trom a base or
about 300 feet square, the ground beneath

in an ornamental garden. Sir Lenjamln

FOUR DOLLARS A MONTH, <
The Sort Of Wages Out of Which Chinese
Clothe and Feed Themselves.
To estimate the pay of working people
at GO cents or $1 per month and board
would doubtless be misleading to many
who are not familiar with economies in
China, says- Langhorne Leitch, late mis-
sionary to China, in a letter to the Kansas
City Star, though if a nearly approximate
figure tould be arrived at the discrepancy
would, after all, appear to us a small mat-
ter The whole of a high estimate would
seem to most westerners little more than a
1oke but small differences are so important
to Chinamen there that I beg leave to make
a somewhat fuller statement of the matter
A RAPIST DROWNED.
St. Louis, Mo., Sept. 27.—An attempt at
criminal assault was made at Ivory, south
of here, yesterday, resulting In the death
of the assailant. The story did not reach
town until to-day. Mrs. Alice Hagedicas,
while walking on the Iron Mountain track,
was assaulted by an unknown negro. Her
screams brought aid before the negro had
done her harm, and before the approach-
ing men the negro lied toward the Missis-
sippi river, and plunging in, attempted to
swim It. He could not and was drowned.
THE GIN BURNERS.
New Orleans, La., Sept. 27.—A morning
paper special from Water Valley, Miss.,
says: Many owners of gins throughout this
section have been threatened by unknown
outlaws and vicious characters with the
destruction of their gins by fire if they
attempted to gin cotton before It should
reach 10 cents per pound. These threats
have been made by posting notices on
their gins. Every effort will be made by
the better class to crush out this species
of lawlessness.
SHOT THROUGH A WINDOW.
Shreveport, La., Sept. 27.—Last night be-
tween 11 and 12 o'clock, Captain Thomas
Lyle, postmaster at Midway, about five
miles east of this place, while at work on
his books, was shot and mortally wounded
than I could do in "a sermon—Illustrations j by an assassin. The assassin fired eight
I only wish that I had on hand. The fig- ] times at him through the window, six
ures here given are, perhaps, very nearly
correct for the section of China In which
I lived, near Shanghai, where wages are
doubtless higher than in most other parts
of China. I would not attempt to say what
the smallest wages are. I have known per;
sonally of wage-earners getting about 2o
cents per month and very poor food. Ap-
prentices work long terms, much of the
time doing skilled work, at a total cost to
the employer of less than J1 50 per month.
Slxtv cents or $1 per month and board
would include uncounted thousunds of
boatmen, clerks and household servants,
and perhaps overstate the facts considera-
bly Many of the blacksmiths, coolies or
burden bearers, basket and bamboo work-
ers and others would almost likely fall into
the same category. Carpenters working by
the day get about 15 cents per day and
clothe and feed themselves, but take the
risk, of course, of lost time. Other "jour-
neymen" work, so far as I know, does not
vary much from this figure—carpenters,
masons, bricklayers, etc., being about the
same. Almost any of these, however,
would doubtless be glad to get work at $4
per month gross.
But the difference In wanes does not
give a correct Idea of the difference In the
cost of doing work. The Chinaman goes
at a leisurely gait. Carpenters will Come
late in the morning, perhaps 9 o'clock, and
as a prelude to work take a long smoke,
and at 5 or 8 o'clock they bundle up their

caped. There Is no hope of Lyle's recovery,
but he is still alive.

TRAIN ROBBERS CONFESS.
Marquette, Mich., Sept. 27.—George La
Liberty has made a full confession of the
Mineral Range train robbery at Houghton
to-day on preliminary examination. He
swore that King, Butler and himself
stopped the train and he ran the engine
while King and Butler robbed the express
car. The money was taken to La Liberty's
boarding house at Houghton, placed in a
trunk and the trunk checked to Marquette.
La Liberty came down on the same train
and gave the trunk check to Ed Hogan.
The trunk was delivered to the house o.*
Liberty's father, and next morning was
found broken open and all but $1000 ab-
wlll jump at the opportunity.

HEMPSTEAD COTTON.
A Shortage of 5000 Bales In Waller County
Looked For.
Hempstead, Tex., Sept. 27.—The total
amount of cotton shipped from this sta-
tion from September 1 to this date at sun-
set Is 1511 bales. The agent states that this
Is a small Increase over last year during
the same time. It Is estimated that there
will be about 4000 bales shipped this year
from this station, and that the total yield
of the county will be about 7000 bales.
Last year the total yield of the county
was about 12,000 bales, a large amount of
It in the lower part of the county being
hauled by the farmers to Houston.
The criminal docket of the county court,
which convenes on Monday morning next,
is the largest ever known In the history
of the county. The last grand jury was
Instrumental Id placing about seventy-five
cases there, mostly for pistol carrying,
assaults, etc., and the county officers as-
sert that If juries of citizens will only do
their duty there will be no miscarriage of
justice.
The county commissioners' court will
shortly meet for the purpose of perfecting
arrangements to Issue the courthouse bonds
authorized by law to build the new court-
house. The walls are up nearly to the first
story and the Iron sleepers for the floors
are In position. The workmen are now
waiting for additional Iron necessary to
push the work.
The root on the Farmers' national bank
now nearly completed, and the brick-
masons are giving the building its finishing
touches. It will be ready to occupy about
October 15.
The artesian well now being bored at
Prairie View colored normal school, six
miles east of Hempstead, is down 284 feet
and a bed of quicksand has been encoun-
tered. The water in the well Is now 175
feet deep and of good quality, and the
contractor believes that he will strike a
vein of water less than 50 feet deeper
strong enough to complete the well.
VERY MUCH PLEASED.
Katy Excursionists Loud in Their Praise
of Their Trip to Galveston.
Belton, Tex., Sept. 27.—The Baptist church
has elected the following delegates to the
Baptist state convention which meets In
Gainesville next Thursday: Rev. W. C.
Lattlmore and Messrs. Tom Ilerron, A. J.
Harris, P. H. Eager and H. B. Hlllyer.
It Is probable that all of them will at-
tend.
The city board of school trustees has
elected Miss Ora Osterhout aB an additional
teacher for the white schools, and Miss
Libbie Carpenter for the colored schools.
Most of t||e Belton excursionists have
returned from Galveston. They complain
of the crowd and Jam both going and
coming as well as while in Galveston;
but, upon the whole, are .oud In their
praise of the Katy and the people of Gal-
veston. How such a crowd was managed
by the Missouri, Kansas and Texas and
the Galvestonlans with so little friction
and such few accidents seisms to be a
mystery to all. So far us The Nuws cor-
respondent haa heard, all of the Belton
crowd secured board and lodgings in Gal-
veston without much difficulty, The Katy
has made many lasting friends among
these people by this uxourslon, and It Is be-
lieved that it will open up new unci re-
store old avenues of trade to Galveston.
Cotton has been coming in right biis-kiy
this week, but the decline In Ihe price
has made the farmers slow about selling.
The merchants are expecting settlements
this week and If the farmers setUe ibey
will have to sell cotton.

Government Ownership of Eailroads Not
Considered at the Gulf Transpor-
tation Convention.
San Antonio, Tex., Sept. 27.—Ex-Governor
John Ireland In an Interview to-day dtrded
the report that he had bolted the Gulf
transportation convention it Chicago for
the alleged reason that It had taken action
favoring the government ownership 06
railroads. The convention declined to con-
sider that character of questions, and the
report of the alleged bolt probably origi-
nated In his merely leaving the hall tem-
porarily.
"What are your views on the present
democratic situation In Texas?" asked the
reporter.
"I think there is entirely too much fuss
being made by would-be leaders of the
so-called Clark and Hogg factions of the
party. I have no suggestions to make as
to how a union of the two factions should
be brought about, and none are neces-
sary from anyone. They will both go into
the primaries, and while there may.be a
struggle between them, there will be no
bolting or a separate party created. The
members of both factions who are now
talking of organizing their respective
forces are in lact enemies of the demo-
cratic party I regard both factions as
democrats, und believe they will come to-
gether like patriots when the proper time
comes."
"What do you think of the national
democratic situation?"
I believe that unless the democratic
party fulfills Its pledges, now that It has
control of the three branches of the gen-
eral government, that the roBult will be
disastrous to the party. These pledges are
contained in the national platform. Un-
less they are carried out, the leaders of
the democratic party will have no answer
to make for their failure when the people
call upon them for an explanation."
"How do you regard the business out-
look of the country?"
"1 don't believe there will be any ma-
terial Improvement in business until con-
gress quits talking about the money ques-
tion. As it is now the depression la
caused by the unsettled state of affairs.
There will be a noticeable Improvement In
business as soon as congress takes soma
definite action, no matter If that action la
for or against the free coinage of sllvet.
or a postponement of the question.
Stability is what we need—It Is not per-
fection, as that is impossible with all
government. When we have stability
the country will adapt Itself to the con-
dlt'ons. It is not more money that la
needed. There 1s plenty of <noney in this
country."
"What are your views on the sliver
question?"
"I do not care to expreiv myself on that
nyhject."
"ft Is reported, governor, that you will
be a Candida'. i for the congressional nom-
li ation in your distrlc'.."
"I am not a candldaU, nor do I wish to
go to congiess."
JACK KERR FREE.
Pete Thurman Gets Four Years In the Pen.
A Wedding.
Bryan, Tex., Sept. 27.—In the district court
here yesterday the Jury in the Jack Kerr
murder case returned a verdict of not guil-
ty. The trial consumed nearly an entire
week.

WHAT MAY CHANGE COLORADO.
New York Sun.
It Is possible that Colorado and othsr
states will grow richer by the proper de-
velopment of the gold-bearing regions than
they have grown by operating the silver
mines; If they do, we shall expect to see
them change their opinion about the coin-
age of silver at the ratio of sixteen to one.

INDIANA DAY AT THE FAIR.
World's Fair Grounds, Sept. 27.—In point
of enthusiasm, Indiana lays claim to the
most successful state day at the fair. It
was an Ideal autumn day. When Governor
Claude Matthews and staff, ex-Prealdent
Harrison, James Whitcomb Riley and others
were escorted to the Indiana building at 11
o'clock by Commissioners Havens, Stude-
baker and others, the guards were com-
pelled to force back a great mass of hu-
manity which was packed together In front
of the state building. After the musical
programme Governor Matthews made the
opening address. Then General Harrison
delivered an address. James Whitcomb
Riley recited one of his poems, "When the
Frost is on the Pumpkin," and it was
warmly received. To-night there was a
display of fireworks.
