MURDERED MIS “SON BY An Extraordinary Story That Reaches England From Galicia, Vienna Dispatch to the London Dally News. An extraordinary story is reported from Tarnopol, in Galicia. A peasant named Adam Gawrydo, whose property is in a small village near Zbaraz, in Galicia, cut his own son's throat with a kitchen knife by mistake. Some weeks ago a Jewish merchant, Solomon Barb, bought old Gaw- rydo’s stock of honey, and paid 50 florins in advance, to make the bargain valid. When the time for delivering the honey came the peasant declared that he could not keep his word, and was prepared to pay any damages to the merchant that the rabbi might decide. Yesterday they both went to the rabbi, who said the peasant must pay the mer- chant 10 florins damages, This he did most willingly, and both went away together. On the way hoine they stopped at a way- side Inn, and did not leave it till night. It began to rain, and the peasant asked the merchant to pass the night in his house. The merchant accepted, and they went home together. The peasant prepared a bed of straw in the barn, and when the merchant had laid down went to his own room, after carefully locking the barn door. This frightened the merchant so much that he got up, felt his way about until he found a second door, which was bolted from the inside, left the batn, and started to walk back to the inn, Ir the meantime the son of the p2asant réturned home half drunk, and, finding#thd barn door open, walked in and dropped op the bed of straw prepared for the stranger. He was soon fast asleep. The merchant on his way to the inn met a gendarme, who asked him where he was going so Igte. Barb told him all that had happened, and the gendarme, thinking he hed a gangerous man before him who was lying to avoid suspicion, asked him to go a him to the peasant’s house. There they foul Gawrydo in the act of washing hig hands, which were stained with blood. Whén he saw them he exclaimed: “Surely #icited you an instant ago!” The gendarme sqarched the house, and in the barn found the son of the peas- ant dead with his thtoaf cut. The peasant was immediately arrestel. 90 Sea Knots and Mile: From Cassier's Magazine. One of the things which it seems diMcult for the public mind to grasp is that there is a decided difference between the knot and the mile. It is certainly about time to have it thoroughly understood that the two are not the same thing. It seems easy jenough to remember that a mile is only about 87 per cent of a knot, the latter being approximately 6,082 feet in length, while the statute mile measures 5,250 feet. Three and one-half miles equal, within a small fraction, to three knots. The result | of this difference, of course, {s that the speed of a vessel in miles per hour 1s al- ways considerably larger than when stated | in knots, and the confusion of the terms | sometimes gives rise to rather remarkable claims of speed performances, When a 20- knot ship, for instance, ig ligitly mentioned it should be remembered that this reall: means over twenty-three miles; similarly, {with hisher figures, which are often glibly terms {s worth bearing in mind. It will help to guard against the forming of ri- diculous estimates of a vessel's capabili- ues, | wise obtain. THE POLITICAL WORLD The Platform of the Georgia Democrats Indorses the Administration. Nominations for Congress and Action at Political Gatherings in Various Parts of the Country. The state democratic convention of Georgia at Atlanta yesterday nominated the following ticket: Governor, W. G. Atkin- son; secretury of state, Allen D, Chandler; controller general, W, A. Wright; treasurer, R. U. Hardeman; attorney general, J. M. ‘Terrell, ‘The platform was presented as the unani- mous report of the committee. It reaffirms the national and state platforms of id5¥2,and on the currency question says: “We de- mand the immediate passage of such Tegis- lation as will restore silver to its constitu- tional position as a money metal, and will secure at once the free and unlimited coin- age of gold and silver on a parity, and give to every dollar in circulation, whether coin or paper, the same debt-paying and pur- chasing power.” The platform further demands a just and equitable tax on incomes and of the 10 per cent state bank tax repeal. On the tariff the platform says: “We congratulate the entire country upon the repeal by this Congress of the federal elec- tion laws, and now urge upon that honor- able body the necessity for the speedy en- actment of the pending tariff bill in such form as wiil insure for it the united syp- port of all democrats in both branches of Congress and its approval by a democratic executive. We especially ‘commend the President and the House of Representatives and our Georgia Senators for their patriotic endeavors to have enacted as near as pos- sible a tariff for revenue only.” The platform opposes government owner- ship of railreads, but favors enforcement of laws providing for right and just control. Mob violence and lynch law are con- demned. A resolution reported by the com- mittee and unanimously adopted by the convention tenders thanks to the President for the appointment of an eminent Georgian to the cabinet, and commends — Hoke Smith's valuable services in the conduct of the Department of the Interior. The same resolution has the following about the President: ‘We have an abiding faith in the courage, wisdom, honesty and patriotism of President Cleveland, and ap- preciate the difficulties confronting his ad- ministration in its efforts to remedy the evil effects of republican misrule and extrava- j¢ Protest in Minnesota. Secretary P. K. Smalley of the Minnesota democratic state central committee and of the State Democratic Association tendered his resignation to Chairman Cutcheon yesterday because the committee at a meet- ing yesterday refused to indorse President Cleveland's letter to Congressman Wilson on _the tariff, Chairman Cutcheon of the democratic state committee has also resigned, having sent a letter to Vice Chairman Marick, in which he states his humiliation over the ac- tion in refusing to indorse President Cleve- land's tariff letter is too great for him to continue longer at the head of the commit- tee. Pennrylvanians Approve Clevelana. The Dauphin county (Pa.) democratic com- mittee yesterday adopted resolutions indors- ing President Cleveland's tariff letter to Chairman Wilson, urging Congress to agree Promptly “upon a tariff bill on the lines of the democratic platform of 1802” and de- manding “in the name of the democratic party a speedy and complete fulfillment of the pledges of the democratic national plat- form of 1S92. Mr. Breckinridge’s Opponents. A special to the Louisville Post from Lex- ington, Ky., says: “Politicians here are dis- cussing @ proposition of Mr. W. C. Owens to Mr. Settle to have a poll of their strength made in the Ashland district by impartial methods and the weaker man to withdraw from the race. Mr. Settle declined the offer, saying that he owed it to his friends to stay in the race regardless of Breckinridge’s can- didacy. Idaho Populists. The populist convention yesterday at Boise, Idaho, made the following nomina- tions: For Congress, James Gunn of Boise; for governor, K. J. W. Ballentine of Bell- vue. The convention declared against fusion with the democrats by a unanimous vote. The resolutions declare in favor of woman suffrage, Wyoming Republicans. The republican’ state convention met at Casper, Wyo., yesterday and nominated Frank W. Mondell for governor. Nominated for Congress. The following nominations for Co were made yesterday: Fourth distric prth Carolina, W Strand, populist; fourth district, H. D. Meney, demo- crat; fil West Virginia, B. B. Dovener, republican; eighth district, Texas, C. K. Bell, democrat; fourth district, New Jersey, W. C. Barrick, populist. Disappointing to Mr. Wise’s Friends. Col. Tazewell Ellett received a vote at the democratic primary held yesterday in Rich- mond, Va., to nominate a congressional re resentative from that district, which en- titles him to fifty-six delegates, while Geo. D. Wise received eighteen, ‘Col. Hilett claims that this result will assure him the nomination, While disappointing to Wise, his friends will not concede this. Fusion in North Carolina. The republicans who assembled in Raleigh, N. C., this week in such large numbers to arrang? for fusion with the populists yester- day issued an address to their party, in which they say the populists are ready to co-operate with republicans in every honor- able way so as to cement into solid opposi- tion to democracy all opposing elements. Co-operation, the address says, can be had so as to present but one candidate for each office to be voted for against democratic nominees. ‘We urge republicans,” the ad- dress continues, “not to make nominations for any office until after action of the re- publican state convention, August 30, being satisfled the state can be easily wrested from the democrats by the union of the re- publican and people's parties. We earnestly urge republicans who favor co-operation for this purpose to use every effort to have county conventions and elect delegates to the state convention who firmly favor this Ine of policy for this campaign.” They Are Federal Otiicers, W. L. Barker of Osceola, nominated for railroad commissioner, and John Whitfield of Stuart, nominated for state auditor by the democratic convention at Des Moine: Iowa, Wednesday, will be compelled to d cline, as they are postmasters. The state ccmmittee will fill their Senator Smith an nix. Senator Smith of New Jersey has written a reply to Englewood constituents who crit- icised his course in opposing the Wilson bill and standing by the Senate bill. says: “I desire only to say that I opposed and still oppose the Wilson bill, first, because it con- tained each and every one of the most odious, inquisitorial features of income tax- in ation ever devised, and second, becaus: my judgment, it would have made it imp sible for at least 50 per cent of the manu- factories within the borders of our state to continue or resume opezations. “The Senate bill, cn the other hand, elimi- nates the most objectionable features of the income tax proposition, and, while making reductions in duties greater than would en- sue from a simple repeal of the McKinley law and greater than were provided by the Millis bill, would not, in my opinion, prevent the prompt resumption of work in a single factory nor deprive a solitary workingm of the employtaent which he might other- He adds that while he would like to grati- fy his constituents In wood, which h speaks of as a residential town, where h can readily understand that “there m have developed a sentiment in longer step toward ad that he ‘ his constituents in the more populot more typical New Jer: cities of Newark, Jersey City, New Brunswick, Trenton and Paterson, And I may add that, while Ij have. received from those who earn their liveli i, as well as idents in other towns, scores of appeals to oppose the Wil- son bill, yours is the first and only remon- strance, bearing more than a single signa- ture, I have yet seen.” In conclusion he says: “I have given to your communication the calm consideration which you ask, despite the siudied imperti- nence of your language, and regret that I cannot see my way clear to change my course to conform with yonr desires,” | more handy SAM WAH’S LAUNDKHY. The Sign Reing Three Inches ‘Teo Low Causes Sam’s Arrest. “Sam Wah, Chinese Laundry This sign hangs in front of house 1024 Oth street. It is far above the sidewalk and at the same time projects about forty- five inches from the house. But even at such a distance Sam fs liable for a violation of the “building regulations. Police Sergt. Kaucher of the second precinct objected to the location of the sign and on several oc- casions he notified the almond-eyed celes- tial of his liability. But Sam told him that the sign had been put up by a carpenter and it was more than a year ago when he put it up. That made it all right, so he thought, and he objected to paying a car- penter another bill. Then, too, if he raised the sign three inchés to make it comply with the law, pedestrians could not see his name from the sidewalk, and he had ro reason to be ashamed of his name. “Sam Wah,” he thought, was a good drawing card, and if the name was removed busi- ness would decrease. And so he preferred to let the matter go into court. This was done this morning and the clothes-washing celestial was represented by airs. V. D. Collins, who, for a number of years, had been a missionary in the flowery kingdom. She was able to talk the language of the man who has not returned to ught for his country, and as an interpreter she was much more of a success than the average Chinaman who undertakes to act in a simi- lar capacity. The police sergeant told his tale of woe and described to the court how the sign is three inches lower than the law al- lows and how it projects fifteea inches too far over the sidewalk. Through the interpreter Sam made his planation, saying he thought the carpen- ter had complied with the law. He also told the judge that the sign had been up more than a year and he thought the poticeman was late in arresting him, Sergt. Kaucher said he had been unable to persuade the Chinaman to make the change. “Then the court will have to do it,” Judge Taylor remarked. ‘The judge said he would suspend sentence and return the Chinaman’s collateral when he made the change in the position cf the sign, and Mrs. Collins asked that he. be given the money now, saying she would have him fix the sign. But Judge Taylor thought it would be time to return the money when Sam com- plied with the law. Sam was not the only one in court charg- ed with violating one of the minor regula- uons, for Policeman Carson, who is under Sergt. Kaucher, had charges against Mrs. Belle May and Albert Fincher. The latter's wife appeared to represent him. The cherge brought against them was hanging clothes on a fence in the front yard to dry. Henry Schneider, who lives at 1607 New Jersey avenue, has complained to the po- lice, so the latter say, and it was because of his complaints that the cases were brought. Mrs. Fincher said she was guilty of the charge, and she also said that some of ther neighbors did the same thing some time ago when they did their own washing. “And,” she added, “I would not do a mean thing for spite.” When Mr. Schneider was called he said he wanted to drop the case against Mrs. May, and said he had not complained of Mr. Fincher. In consideration of statements made the cases were nolle prossed. > CENTRAL AM ICAN HAILSTONES. A Sort of Prize Package in Which Yeu Find Queer Things. From the Atlanta Constitution, A gentleman connected with the Museo National (National Museum) at San Jose, Costa Rica, in a private letter, tells a graphic story of the wonderful hailstorm which recently visited the southwest coast of that Central American republic. His letter, in part, is as follows: “The cloud caine almost directly from the west, and was blacker than the proverbial yptian darkness.’ We are now well used to tropical storms, with thelr accompant- ments of real thunder and lightning—some- thing grander than the fclks in old Missouri have ever seen or heard—but in this case it seemed a thousand squalls, hurricanes and cyclones combined in one. All of a sudden there was a terrible roaring and splashing in the bay near the camp. I have since thought thac the only thing it could be compared with would be a shower of bricks and cobblestones falling Into the ocean. We had hardly time to take shelter in an immense hollow guave when that portion of the cloud which was dumping its im- mense load of ice into the salty water veer- ed to the northeast and crossed to the tree- less tract of mountains lying over toward Hanfeta. “It was not a hailstorm in the grand, true sense of the word, it was simply an awful precipitation of thousands of tons of ice from the clouds. Some of these jumps were not larger than one’s fists, but the majority of them w larger n full-sized bulid- ing bricks and one wh buried itself in and near our camp kettle on the beach jagged, three-cornered mass of ice hing twenty-three pounds an hour a a half after the storm cloud had passe As one of the boys afterward remarked, ‘It seemed as if the cloud had been fro: solid to a depth of about six or elght inc! and then suddeniy knocked to pieces and thrown to the earth.” But few of the ice chunks bore the least resemblance to ordi- nary hailstones; all were of jag@ed and ir- regular form, the majority of the pieces containing some foreign substance, such as a ball of earth, wads of rotten leaves, sand, fish, and frog spawn, ete. The head of a dead sunfish was found in one piece and a half dozen or a dozen of the ice slabs gathered up and put into our water jar yielded two live and one dead frog, a mass of kelp or sea weed, three small pebbles, a@ sea shell and some queer black seeds about the size of buckshot.” oo IF SOLDIERS WERE BULLET-PRUUF. How War Will Be Carried on When Soldiers Cannot Be Shot. From the Spectator. If there is not some latent but fatal defect in Herr Dowe’s system of makng a soldier bullet-proof the result of warfare will be a very remarkable one. Since the object of war is to kill, “to place hors de combat” is only a less crude way of putting the fact that new ways of killing infantry and cav- alry will have to be devised. The chances of hitting men in the face at long distances with rifle fire will not be good enough. But the only ways of killing effectively that will remain open will be artillery fire, close com- bat with the bayonet and clubbed rifle, pref- erably the latter, as the culrass will make the bayonet difficult to use with effect, and ridiag men down by cavalry charg The first of these—artillery fire—has hitherto been regarded as of comparatively little im- portance in the matter of killing. it is often declared, indeed, that the chief effect produced by the guns is the moral effect. Though not many are killed, men do not like to be within range of artillery, Possibly, however, the effect of artillery fire could be increased. In any case, and since everything is relative, the fact of the falling off of efficiency in rifle fire must in- crease the importance of artillery fire. It is obvious, however, that the chief effect of bullet-proof soldiers on the circumstances of a battle would be to increase enormousiy the amount of hand-to-hand fighting. But hand-to-hand fighting means an advantage to the strongest and most athletic force. Now, it will be seen from the bare enumera- tion of the changes which seem likely to follow bullet-proof soldiers that a great ad- vantage will be given to E nd. Bullet-proof cuirasses will give an aa- vantage to the nation which can only bring a small number of troops into the field. But that nation is England. It will increase the importance of artillery. But this should be in favor of England, for, though we have not the conscription, and so cannot get men in large quantities, we can manufacture as man: of close combat ought to be tn for Englishmen ure certainly b roug’ tumbl fig their neis ntry are guns as we choose.

It was admitted by the Secretary of State last evening that he had been oificiatly in- formed that a state of war existed between China and Japan, thereby confirming the statement in yesterday's Star. The information, he said, came in a @is- patch from Mr. Charles Denby, the charge d'affaires at Pekin. Mr. Denby'’s dispatch does not say, however, which country made the declaration, Mr. Denby also stated in his dispatch that the Japanese had with- drawn their charge ffaires at Pekin and that the American legation was exerting its Sood offices to protect the subjects of Japan in China. The Japanese minister to China is also minister to Corea and at this time is in the latter country, leaving the legation at Pekin in the care of the charge. “The Japanese government having ex- hausted every honorable means to bring about a just and lasting settlement of the differences exiting between Japan and China, and those efforts having proved wholly unavailing, the undersigned has the honor, in fulfillment of the duty devolving upon him, to announce to you that a state of war exists between Japan and China. ‘This is the text of the note addressed by the minister for foreign affairs at Tokio, July 31, to the foreign representatives in Japan, Including the United States minister, ‘The report or Chinese triumphs over Jap- anese troops at Yashan, in Corea, is re- ceived with incredulity at the Japanese le- gation here.

For some reason not ascertainable the Pei Yang squadron returned to Chee Foo yesterday afternoon. Affidavits of Capt. Galesworthy and Chief Officer Tamplin of the transport Kow Shung, which was sunk by the Japanese cruiser Nariwa, have been laid before the Japanese authorities. They agree in the main with the previous accounts of the af- fair, but give these additional detafis: When the Naniwa began firing on the Kow Shung Capt. Galesworthy and several lowered a boat, which picked up Messrs. Gaiesworthy and Tamplin. These were treated with every kindness Japanese. Previously, when Capt. worthy had attempted to follow the Nan- 1wa or leave the ship, the Chinese generals had threatened to kill him. The Japanese boarded the Kow Shung the second time to transfer the Europeans to the Naniwa, the Chinese prevented this. E Japanese minister for foreign affairs ad- dressed to the representatives of all the foreign powers in Tokio. The text of this important declaration is as follows: The Japanese government having ex- hausted every honorable means to bring about a just and lasting settlement of the cifferences existing between Japan and China, and those efforts having proved wholly unavailing, the undersigned has the honor, in fulfillment of the duty devolving upon him, to announce to you that a state cnoce nana eeresmea A.
