Kemmler Goes to Court to Be Sentenced Again. STUDYING THE TWIN CITY CENSUS. a ae KEMMLER IN COURT. To be Sentenced Over Again in Buffalo Toda; Avcpvey, N.Y., July 3.—William Kemmler, the Buffalo murderer, left here at 7 a.m. in company with Warden Durston and Keeper McNaughton for Buffalo, where the sentence of death by electrocution will again be pro- mounced. The murderer's appearance has not ehanged noticeably since his last trip to Buf- falo and he was apparently less concerned than hiv guards. He will return to the prison to- night. —— CHARGES DROPPED. The Minneapolis Enumerators Will Not Be Prosecuted. Mixyearoris, Mixy., July 3.—The charges against the Minneapolis census enumerators are to be dropped, the evidence against them, in the opinion of George N. Baxter, special couu- sel for the government, not warranting a prose- sution. Within a few aays Mr. Baxter will for- ward to the Attorney General at Washington bis recommendation that the cases be aban- doved. He has not completed his examination of the evidence against the enumerators, but has proceeded far enough to feci reasonably ware that there would be no conviction. LATER. Mrsyeapours, Mrxy., July 3.—The report that Special Counsel Baxter had, upon examina- tion of the evidence, recommended the dismis- sal of the census cases is premature and un- contirmed. Mr. Baxter received his commis- sion ouly yesterday and is busy examining the evidence. ee A PRIVATE CENSUS. Denver Volunteer Enumerators Corrall 8,000 Unlisted Names, Dexver, Col.. July 3.—The unofficial report of Census Supervisor Sopers that the popu! tiou of Denver would not exceed 115,000 has ereated no little indignation among the citi- zens of this city. Hundreds of letters have been sent to the city officials giving the names of those who had been missed by the enumer- ators. On the strength of the reports the Rocky Mountain News made a proposition to make a recanvass of the city at their own ex- pense and turn the result over to the super- visor. The citizens’ committee having this matter in charge called a meeting for the pur- e of considering Col. Arkins’ proposition. Eek Arkins stated that the expense would be in the neighborhood of $5,000 and he would begin work immediately,providing consent was given. After some discussion it was agreed to raise the money by subscription, there being a difference only between the Nevws and the com- mittee as to the mode of doing the work. The money was secured in an hoar and men were sent out vesterday morning all over the city. ‘The result of the day's work was neariy 8,000 names that had never been taken. It is esti- Mated that it will take seven days to complete the work. oe ee CLOAK MAKERS’ RIOT. The Situation Becomes Desperate With the Locked Out Workers. New York, July 3.—A crowd of about two hundred striking cloak makers gathered on Broadway between Leonard and White streets this morning at the hour when the hands in Meyer & Jonassens’ shops at 354 and the Mer- cantile Cloak Company's place at 394 Broadway were going to work. These firms are two of the largest in the trade and are battling in the frout row of the Les agg Association against the strikers’ demands. When their employes tried to enter the shops they were surrounded by the strikers, who forbade them, with vehe- ment gesticulations, to enter. Some were frightened away by the crowd and escaped, while those who persisted in the effort to enter the shops were seized aud hustled away by force. In a few minutes Broadway fortwo blocks was the scene of a dozen running fights. For a short time the strikers bad it all their own way, but soon the assailed men pluckily fought back. As a consequence damaged heads among the strikers were plentiful. The working cloak makers, however, generally got the worst of it. Around Meyer & Jonassens’ shops the battle Faged most fiercely. THE FIFTH OF JULY. Some of the Good Things to Appear in Saturday’s SixteenePage Star. The Fourth of July will be followed by the Fifth, which is quite a day in many respects, It will be celebrated this year by excellent Saturday Sra of sixteen pages, for which all the journalistic resources of a brilliant and versatile staff have been liberaily drawn upon.

Pattison as the democratic candidate for governor of Penn- sylvania hae caused considerable talk among the democrats. It would be putting it too strong, perhaps, to say that they ex- pect that Pattison will defeat Delamater, but they believe that the democrats will poll a very much larger vote than usual and they are not without hope. The Wallace men are dis- appointed, of course, as are also the democrats who do not like Cleveland. Some of these say that Pattison will lose some democratic votes, but the general idea seems to be that his nomination was a good one and that he will get not only all the democratic votes, but also many votes of republicans who do not like the idea of the nomination of Delamater by Quay influence, PATTISON AND CLEVELAND. ‘The nomination of Pattison is regarded as an indication of the strength of Mr. Cleveland in Pennsylvania, and as such it is received with pleasure by the tariff reformers, who expect to see Cleveland running as their next candidate, with tariff as the issue. A dozen strikers caught Charles Butler, a stock clerk, dragged bim backward off the teps and maltreated him. Joseph Lerburger, ayer for the house, wus beaten. An old ope- Fator named Quiucy was set upon and so badiy beaten that he had to be removed to his home im acab. liam Wisner, another operator, received severe scalp wounds. He was taken to Chambers’ Street Hospital for treatment. Neither pistols nor knives were used in the melee, the ouly weapons used being fists and ciubbed umbrellas. When the police arrived in force they had no difficulty in dispersing the mob. They ased their clubs freely. Mr. Moorcroft, of the cloak firm, said he had no idea that violence would be used: he had supplied the places of the strikers, he said, aod work was progressing as usual. oo A QUEER RELEASE. There is No Law in Colorado Against Murder. Dexver, Cor., July 3.—James Medley and James Savage. the latter colored, and both of them cold-blooded murderers. were set free Yesterday. After they had been convicted, sentenced and the scaffold erected for their execution it was discovered that, through a blunder of the last legisiature, there was at the time the crimes were committed no law in Colorado against murder. The state's attor- ney argued that inasmuch as this was true the prisoners had never been in jeopardy of their ives and could be tried again. Judge Rising failed wo take this view and the prisoners were released. Upon the advice of their lawyers both started for the state line, — Chicago’s Dock Strike. Curcao, July 3.—The dock laborers’ strike is still ow and the strikers are having rather the better of it. From « hundred men who struck four nights ago on one line—the Lehigh Valley—the strik® has spread until one thou- sand men and five transportation lines are now involved. The odd feature of the strike is the fact that the strikers are entirely unorganized. ‘They bave no union, but are simply pulling to- gether from sheer force of a common interest. ‘Their work is so arduous that men unaccus- tomed to the work would be soon disabied by it, and heuce the improbability of replacing the strikers by new men at the prices offered is very slim. +. Fire in Concord, N.H. Coxconp, N.H., July 3—The three-story brick biock in the rear of North Main street, owned by Samuel H. Dow and occupied by P. Bianchard’s Sons. churn manufacturers, and N. P. steven The Indians Refused. Kiexaroo Aocexcy, Oxta., July 3.— The Cherokee commission met the Kickepoo tribe yesterday and submitted a proposition as fol- lows: That the United States would allow each member of the tribe to select 80 acres of land, those aged over eighteen to select their own; parents to select for children aud the agent for Orphaus under eighteen; sections 16 to 36 to be reserved for school lauds; 80 acres to be re- served for a hospital, school or church pur- The conditions surrounding the campaign are very different from those which secured Mr. Pattison’s election in the year of the tidal wave of 1882. There were then two republican candidates in the field. Now the only thing the democrats have to give them hope of suc- cess is that there willbe a popular protest | against Quay’s control of Pennsylvania politics, MR. VAUX'S OPINION. Mr. Vaux said to @ Stax reporter today that | he regarded the nomination of Mr. Pattison | asan admirable one. He would not say that he expected the democrats to elect their candi- date, but he thought they had a good fighting chance. The convention was harmonious; everything | wasdone in just the right way, and Pattison, | he thonght, besides getting the demo- cratic vote, would draw more from the | other party than could any one else. | Pattison, he said, was an able and a good | man and had hardened and developed since | his term as governor. When elected before he | wasa young men of ability, but had had no broad experience in politics, but he has got broad and full-chested since then. Applicants Under the New Pension Bill. Assistant Secretary Bussey has decided that | the act of June 27, 1890, known as the disabil- | ity pension act does not require that an appli- | cation or declaration for pension be executed | after June 27 in order to be good in 1, He holds that the limitation of time fixed in the statute relates exclusively to the date of filing the application or declaration in the Pension Office after the passage of the act and not to the date of execution, This ruling reverses the practice of the Pension Office under the rules recently adopted governing the filing of claims under this act. A number of applica- tions were executed some months ago in antic- upation of the passage of the act and these the Commissioner of Pensions declined to receive on the ground that they were executed prior to the passage of the act. Such cases will, how- ever. now be received. The Penny Postage Jubilee. ‘The jubilee of the establishment of the uni- form penny postage system in England was celebrated last evening at South Kensington Museum. London. A cable dispatch was sent | by Pos master General Wanamaker yesterday, in wiiel: Le says beg to send fraternal greetings and congratulations that the postal | service is steadily improving throughout the world, We join in the celebration of the jubi- lee of penny postage, having for many years enjoyed the equivalent rate of letter postage, and we now look forward to an early reduction to one-cent letter postage. A New Star on the Flag Tomorrow. In signing the bill admitting Idaho to the terhood of states this morning the Presi- dent has dissppointed a number of people in that state who had hoped that the new state should take up her posi- tion in line on the Fourth of July. The reason for his action was an interesting one. The President. it seems. found that the law ordained that a new star should be placed upon the American flag for each new state on the Fourth of July succeeding its admission to the Union, The President left it to Mr. DuBois, the Delegate from Idaho, to decide whether to have the bill si it poses. The government .ffered to pay $64,650 to the nation. After three hours’ deliberation the Iudians refused the proposition, abruptly broke off all negotiations with the commission and left for their homes. ——_— Louisiana Lottery Law Passed.

Mariam. HE QUIRTED HIS WIFE. A-Domestic Quarrel that May Have a Fatal Result. A JEALOUS WOMAN FOLLOWS HER HUSBAXD AND HA® NER SKULL FRACTURED—GLICE’S ALLEY THE SCENE OF A PROBABLE MURDER—TEHE AS SAILANT UNDER ARREST. Glick’s alley, which isa narrow concreted thoroughfare running north and south through the square between 6th and 7th and Band 8 streets northwest, has a number of colored residents who require the constant attention of the police, and seldom a week passes that sev- eral atrosts are not made there. Last night the usual fight occurred in the alley and it is likely that one of those engaged in it will die. CRIES OF “MURDER.” It was shortly after 11 o'clock when the resi- dents of the alley were awakened by screams of “murder,” and several persons who rushed out to ascertain the trouble found a colored woman named Martha Washington lying on the concrete pavement in a pool of blood. The apparently dying woman was picked up and taken to her home in the alley, which is house No. 27. Several policemen responded to her crics of “murder” and they had her conveyed to Freedman’s Hospital, where it was found that her skull had been fractured. The assault was committed by her husband, William Washingion, but he was not to be found last night. WASHINGTON ARRESTED. The police were given a description of him and about noon today he was arrested by the officers of the eighth precinct and locked up to await the result of his wife’s injuries. Inquiry developed the fact that the fight was the resuit of jealousy on the part of the wife. Her maiden name was Martha Banks, and ayear ago she married Washington. never lived happily together, for the wife ai- ways caused trouble by accusing William of be- ing too attentive to other females, RENEWING THE OLD QUARREL, Early last evening she renewed the accusa- tion and several times they quarreled, Mrs. Banks, mother of the injured woman, took a hand in the domestic troubles of her son-in- law and daughter and the former gave her a parting kick before leaving the house, Martha followed her husband from the house and de- clared her intention of remaining with him all night to prevent him from visiting one of her rivals, She told him that she intended to fol- low him until either of them dropped, and she fulfilled her promise. FIGUTING AS THEY WENT. William struck her several times while going through the alley and over a vacant lot. He turned up 7th street and she still followed him, When he reached the corner of S street he turned back toward the ailey, and just ashe made another turn toward his house there was a new outbreak and he threw # brick at Martha, ‘The brick struck her on the forehead just over the eye and inflicted the wound, which will probably prove fatal. THE WOMAN'S CONDITION. Today the injured woman was no better. The fracture is nota severe one, but toward noon she began vomiting, which, the doctors say, is a sign of congestion of the brain. AGREEMENT WITH MEXICO. Reetprocal Crossing of the Boundary | Line in Pursuit of Hostile Indians. By direction of the Secretary of War an agreement providing for the reciprocal crosa- ing of the international boundary line by the troops of the United States and the republic of Mexico in pursuit of hostile Indians has been published for the information and government of all concerned. It is agreed that tne regular federal troops of the two republics may reciprocally cross the boundary line of the two countries, when they are inclose pursuit of a band of hostile say- age Indians, upon certain conditions, it is un- derstood for the purpose of the agreement that no Indian scouts of the government of the United States of America shall be allowed to cross the boundary line, unless they go as guides and trailers, unarmed, and not exceed- ing in any case two scouts for each company or each separate command. ‘The reciprocal crossing agreed upon shall only occur in the unpopulated or desert parts of said boundary line. For the purpose of this agreement the unpopulated or desert parts are defined to be all those points which are at least ten kilometers distant from any encamp- ment or town of either country. ‘The only innovation over the existing agree- ment is that concerning the crossing of the United States Indian scouts. The agreement is @ provisional one, but it will remain in force until both governments negotiate a definite one. It may be terminated by either govern- ment upon four months’ notice to the other to that effect, but in no case shall it remain in force for more than a year from its date, July 2, 1890. THE SILVER BILL HANGS. Another Fruitless Conference—Failure to Agree on the Redemption Clause. Another unavailing conference over the silver bill was held this morning, lasting an hourandahalf. One of the members says the time was spent as it was yesterday, in general discussion of the financial situation; that no proposition was presented and pressed with any particular force. An adjournment was taken at noon until Saturday morning. It is said that previous to that time, probably this afternoon or evening, the republican mem- bers of the conference will hold a meeting, with a view to agreeing upon some basis of action. One of the questions upon which the conferees are divided is said to be whether only the certificates to be issued in accordance shall be made legal tender or ali the certificates ontstanding previous tothe approval of the bill as well. Mr. Walker, one of the House conferees, is credited with having suggested that the bill requires customs duties to be peid in gold aione, but that was ruled out on the ground that its consideration would open up 9 discussion upon a matter not properly inc!uded within the scope of the bill before the conference. Mr, Bland of the House conferees is quoted na saying that the only serious differeuce between the House and Sen- ate conferees relates to the bullion redemption clause. THE CRUISER PHILADELPHIA. Offictal Report of the Trial Board—The Vessel Complete and Satisfactory. The Secretary of the Navy today received the official report of the board appointed to try the cruiser Philadelphia, It says that the aver- age speed during a run of four hours was 19,678 knots per hour, and that during the trial. the engines and boilers worked in a most satisfactory manner, the necessary steam pressure being maintaine 1 throughout the course. The board estimates that the ship while under forced draft rau a distance of about 100 miles. At the end of the trial the machinery and boilers were in good condition, no defects having been discovered aud only one slight accident having occurred, and that in the arrangements for oiling the machinery. ‘The board reports that the vessel is sufficiently strong to carry its proposed armament, equipments, coal, stores and machinery, and that the machinery, including engines, boilers and appurtenances, is strong and weil built, The board says that the vessel is in all respecta complete and ready for delivery in accordance with the requirements of the contract. with certain slight modifications, In conclusion the report says that the vibration of the hull during the trial was atnotime more than would be expected in a vessel of thie type, and the sea being smooth there was hardly any perceptible roll or pitch, Idaho Bill and Other Bills Approved. ‘The President this morning approved the bill providing for the admission of the state of Idaho into the Union. He has also approved the jolut resolution providing for the unex- pended balance of $99,439.07 for discharging claims of letter carriers for extra compensa- tion under the eight-hour law und appro- priated for the fiscal year ending Jane 30, 1888; the act authorizing J.
