Deficit in the Treasury. WasuiInGton, Oct. 29.--The problem of suflicient revenue from ordinary re- ceipts to carry on the operations of the government has not yet been soived at the treasury, in spite of the hopes which have been cherished that cus- toms and internal revenue payments would increase. There was a very marked inerease in the range of re- ceipts after the beginning of the new yesterday, adstrong. The ales { 20. N.

The aggregate receipts for these four months will be about $113,500,000, but this is about $6,500,000 less than the normal expenditures, and would indicate a deficit at the end of the fiscal ticket” in Wisconsin, and lays the blame to a local school issue, which beat the republicans in the state in 1890.

Wasutnaton, Oct. -Among the rumors current regarding the selection of chairmen of the house committees by Thomas L. Reed, as speaker, the greatest interest is felt here in the re- port which comes from New York city to the effect that Mr. Reed has finally decided to appoint Sereno E. Payne, of New York, chairman of the house com- mittee on ways and means in the next congress. It is asserted that at the conference last week between Mr. Reed and Mr. Payne the Maine statesman gave Mr. yne to understand that hicago Grain and Provisions. wh't—< Corn —€ Oats —-Oc Pork —-De Lari Ribs po | i Kansas City Grain. sault preferred against him by Letitia Omera, a girl of 15 years, who is em- ployed at a hotel in this city. The girl was in one of the upper rooms of the hotel washing the windows, when she alleges that Wilson came in, and, seizing her, stifled her cries and ac- complished his purpose, after which he locked her in the room, and, going down stairs, made his escape, abandon- ing all of his baggage. Officer Murderously Assaulted. JoserH, Mo., Oct. 29.—Police Of- ficer George Hayes was found lying un- conscious in a pool of blood on the pavement at the city hall last night, his head and face beaten so badly asto make him unrecognizable. He re- gained consciousness, and said that he had been assaulted by four men, un- known to him, who intended murder, but were frightened away by the city treasurer, who first found the officer. The reason for the assault isunknown, Killed a Burglar. Platte City, Mo., Oct. 27.—News has just reached here of the killing of a burglar at New Market yester- day morning at 3 o'clock. Dr. J. M. Hale of New Market was awakened by some one entering his room with a dark lantern in his hand. Hale reached for his shot gun and killed the man. The dead man is not known in this county. When the man fell his companions outside fired two shots at Hale, the bullets entering the bedstead. The burglar had a dark lantern and a loaded pistol, which he had not drawn. A posse is out after his accomplices. Young people will find much to for persons on the ground and famil- iar with the local situation to over- estimate the effect of the issue two years after its force culminated. Local issues seldom have much in- fluence in a presidential campaign, and it is probable that the force of this particular issue, which defeated the republicans in 1890, was pretty well spent before the ballots were cast in 1892. But local issues will not account for the 27,000, democratic plurality in Illinois in 1892 (althought that state had a school squabble, too, shortly before), for the drop to 1,000 in the republican plurality in Ohio in that year, and for the great contraction in the republican vote ings, particularly during the last months of those ISANSAS City, Oct. 29 —Wheat fair demand fora time this morn the close most buyers had pulled out.

TWO MEN IN THE DEATH CHAIR. New York Murderers Pay the Penalty in Clinton Prison. Dannemora, N. Y., Oct. 29.—To- day, for the second time in the his- tory of this state, two murderers paid the penalty of their crimes on the same day and before the same set of witnesses, George H. Smith, who murdered old Philip Rich- meyer at Albany, and Charles N. Davis, who aulted and killed 66-year-old) Maggie Shannon at Cohoes, g¢ killed in the electric chair at Clinton prison.

Atkinson, recently of Warrensburg, Mo., but now in charge of the Rush- ville public school, is under arrest on the charge of brutally beating with a hickory stick Miss Angie Van Hoozier, a pupil, 20 years of age. The young woman started to leave the school, when she was pursued and flogged in | the hallway. Child Fatally Burned. Sr. Lovts, Oct. 29.—Lily, the 2-year- old daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Alexan- der Sellman, at 1305 North Eighth street, was fatally burned yesterday morning by her clothes catching fire while she was playing about a gasoline stove. Mrs. Sellman, in trying to ex- tinguish the flames, was so badly burned that she will be bedfast for some time. Unrequited Love Causes Suicide. Vanpatia, Mo., Oct 29. — About three weeks ago Robert Lust, aged 23, residing 5 miles west of this place, ab- sented himself. A thorough search was made without avail until yester- day morning, when his lifeless form was discovered in a neighbor's pond. Pleasant Hours for Boys and Girls. There isa capital short story by Oliver Optic; an article giving some excellent hints for boys on buying and using a gun, by Wilf P. Pond; an interesting description of an in- cident of war, by J. Frederick Thorne; a valuable paper on “Chil- dren in Japan,” by A. B. de Guer- ville; an illustrated poem about an arithmetical puzzle, by Clifford Howard; a story for very little folks; a description of a new and exciting game fer boys; several illustrated jingles and a number of puzzles; while the two serial stories by Ed- ward S. Ellis and Jeannette H. Wal- worth contiaue with increasing interest. A unique feature of this magazine, which starts in the No- vember number, is the editor's talks about the new books for boys and girls, in which he points out what ia best in the late juvenile publications. The number is splendidly illustrated. The good roads movement has reached a decidedly practical stage in Massachusetts. Both parties favor it in their platforms, and the highway commission will ask the ocratic all over the country. Illinois was a republican state from the sec- ond national canyass of the party. It came over to the republicans in 60 and has been over ever since in pres- idential years, exceptin 1892. Ohio was a republican state from the be- ginning of the party's days, giving Fremont 17,000 plurality, and gave asafe margin to eyery republican candidate for president since except in 1892, when it shrunk 80 close to the vanquishing point that one dem- ocratic elector squeezed in. On the basis of 1892's vote the state which gave a 74,000 majority to the head of the republican state ticket in 1854 in the first year of the republican party's existence, could be put in the doubtful column. The same influence whieh gave Wisconsin and Illinois to the demo- crats in 1892 and which, with a transfer of 600 votes, would have put Ohio on the democratic side, oporated all the country, as the elec- tion figures from the different states show.

St. Lots, Oct. 29.—Mattie Warren, aged 10 years, and her brother Willie, 8 years old, colored, were greund to death by a Wabash engine in a tunnel at the entrance of Forest park. They were horribly mangled. At Nevada, Mo, George Rutherford, wife and daughter were thrown from their wagon by a runaway team and all three fatally injured. Charles Goff, a car repairer, was run over and killed in the Union Pacific yards at Kansas City, Mo towns in the state have filed petitions for their share of the work. The state will assume the improvement and maintenance of 2,000 miles of the 20,700 miles of roads outside of cities, which is about the proportion of state roads maintained in France. —Globe Democrat. Fire destroyed seventy buildings in the little of town of Gibsonburg, Ohio. Nearly every businees house in the town was burned. The loss is between $150,000 and $300,000. Of course the McKinley law was not as the democrats charged, but there was no necessity for its being bad stall. There was no urgent demand for a sweeping change in duties in 1890, but if the clange was made, reason dictated that it be made downward instead of upward. The men responsible for the law sinned against the light, and the party to which they belonged is not in any doubt as to what overthrew it in 1892.
