In regard to,the beef question, Dr. Sal- mon has reported to the Secretary. of Agri- culture that there is an undoubted diminu- tien of the class of cattle from which the beef supply is drawn. Taking the figures of the statistioal division, which he believes to be approximately correct, and excluding Gairy cows, there were in 1892 37,651,239 head of cattle in the United States, or 576 to each 1,000 of population. In 1895 there are only 34,364.216 of such cattle, or 493 to each 1,000 of population. great diminution in the beef cattle of the country, and also that the increased prices of such cattle in the stock yards is legiti- mate. Under such circumstances, however, the market should be strong and the cattle be readily disposed of at advanced figures instead of being weak and depressed, as it is constantly reported to be. The price of beef in the eastern cities has gone higher than is justified by the price of live cattle, and the reported break in the market for cattle on account of alleged decreased consumption has come in ad- vance of any lowering on beef. In each case the effect has shown itself in advance of the cause. ———-e-____ South Dakota’s Land Claim. J. J. Lockhart, state commissioner of education of South Dakota, with J. H. King, counsel for the state, called at the Interior Department yesterday in connec- tion with the ciaim of Scuth Dakota to 50,000 acres of indemnity school lands in the Yankton Indian reservation. A bill passed in 1894, authorizing the opening of the reservation to settlement, provides that the lands shali-be sold to bona fide settlers only. The Indian appropriation bill for 1895 provides that indemnity school lands may be retained by a state in any reserva- tion opened to settlement. A conffict has arisen over this point between the state and the Indians, ond the President has withheld his proclamation opening the res- ervation until it can be settled. The case will be ‘heard by Secretary Smith either Thursday or Saturday. Ex-Commissioner Stockslager and Mr. Heard represent the Indians. ——___-o+_______ Declined the Office.

Clareuce Ghilds, second baseman of the Cleveland Club, revolted and refused to accompary his team to St. Louts yesterday. He has not signed a contract yet, and re- fuses to do so until he is granted a $300 increase in salary over that of last year. This was refused him. When President Robison of the Cleveland base bail club was shown a dispatch from Cincinnati, saying that Second Baseman Childs had guit the team, he said he had received no information of the kind. “He made a demand for more salary, but L re- fused to give it to him,” the president said. “If he has quit he will stay out until 1 get ready to take him back at my terms.” Childs arrived at Cleveland from Cincin- nati last night and will see President Robi- son today. THE FREEDMAN CUP. Yale and Brown Tied in Their Games Against the New Yorks. The following telegram has been sent*to the managers of the Yale and Brown Uni- versity base ball teams by Andrew Freed- ran, president of the New York base ball club: “Cup comimittée decides Yale’s games and Brown’s games a tie, and desires that they should be played off. 1 wish you to understand me in this matter as haying absolutely no interests im the decision in any way. If your team are desirous of playing this game off at the Polo grounds, New York, well and good. If not, will it be satisfactory to you to have decision ren- dered on the first game your two clubs play, place of game to be wherever you desire?. The New York team will be away from the Polo grounds during the entire month of May.”” = President MaKee of the Yale Base Ball Association said last night that Yale had declined to accept the suggestion of the Freedman cup committee to arrange a game with Brown in New York. Owing to the schedule being full, and the impracti- cability of it, as far as Yale is concerned, the authorities have let the matter drap, but they are willing to let the commuiztee make their decision on the series of games already arranged with Mrown, beginning April 27, at Providence May 4 and May 30. What Brown Men Say. A telegram from Providence says that the students of Brown University are very much aroused over the decision of the judges to award the loving cup offered by the New York League team this year for the college club that should make the best showing against the leagve nine, in which Yale and Brown are tied for the prize, and that a deciding game should be played be- tween the college nines. The students un- hesitatingly denounce the action a3 favor- able to Yale. S. C. Packard, manager of the Brown nine, last night said that he had not been officially notified that Erown will be obliged to play off with Yale before an award can be made, and until then will Rot discuss the matter. Captain Bustard of the Brown nine, however, was quite willing to talk, and’ he stated that while.| he was of the opinion that the Brown club will have much difficulty in getting the cup, as the judges did not want t» give it to Brown, the latter will fight for it to the best of its ability. The sympathy of the judges,” he said, is with Yale. 1 will take my best players to New York, if necessary, and give Yale the hardest fight it ever had, Then, if Brown is able to win, in spite of official cp- position, the victory will be a much greater honor. If they fail, they will fave tne sympathy of every fair-minded person who has read the story of the games between New York and the college teams.” THE MAKE-UP UNCERTAIN. Only Two Men Sure of Seats in the Cornell Bont. In an Interview last evening with refer- ence to Cornell navy matters, Trainer Courtney said: “I do not know who will compose the crew that is to go abroad the work is transferred from the gym- am to Cayuga Lake. It was thought that a majority of the seats would be oc- cupied by the heavier men, who pulled in last year’s ‘varsity, but they have been beaten in every trial race by the lighter crew, and everything is in doubt. It is not at all probable that several old men will be among the crew, but there are some "06 men who are doing excellent work. We feel severely the loss of Ohl and Dillingham, who left the university, and I fear we can- not fill the latter’s place. A lst of twen- ty-three men has been sent to the Henley rowing authorities and this Ust includes the names of six freshmen. I am sorry to announce that Troy and Tatum, who are doing excellent work, cannot find places in the Henley shell because they are dis- qualified by the clause which prohibits from rowing ‘any one who has worked at manual labor.’ I am too busy to consider what the boys may do when we compete with the Englishmen, and as to who will represent Cornell, I'am morally certain of only two candidates, whose names I must not disclose.” BOTH SEEM EAGER TO FIGHT. Corbett Willing to Meet Fits in Any State of the Union. Referring to the hitch with the Florida Athletic Club, Champion James J. Corbett, who is at Cincinnati, says: “I will meet Bob Fitzsimmons in any state in the Union. Joe Vendig has my permission to transfer the scene of operations to Texas, Colorado, Louisiana or any other state. I will meet Fitzsimmons before any club in the country, but it must be for a purse. I will not go out of America to take Fitz- simmons on, and if it is not possible for us to get together here, I will go to Eng- land and fight Peter Jackson. He has first call for a meeting on foreign soil. I once refused to go to London to settle with Jackson, and if I took Fitzsimmons there he would have the dead wood on me, and say: ‘He wes afraid of me. He would not meet me in London.’ It is any place in A New Discovery by the Shakers. For more than a hundred years the Mount Leba- non Shakers have studied the cultivation of medici- nal plants and sought to extract from them thelr healing essences. Their labor has not been spent in vain, They have made a discovery that will prove a blessing to mankind. It consists of a cor- ial that causes immediate relief in cases of indi- gestion. ‘The importance of this discove::” will be apparent when we realize that nearly n‘:ze-tenths of all our sufferings are caused by dyspepsia or in- digestion. Nearly every person you mect has; this digestive trouble in some of its varied forms— sick headache, distress after eating, pain and full- ness in the chest after eating, palpitation pf the heart, ete., are but symptoms of indigestion, To relieve these sufferings has been-the study of the Shakers, and they have succeeded. The reason the Shaker Digestive Cordial has such an immediate and salutary effect is that it causes the focd eaten to be digested, for it is undigested food that causes the distress. The cordial causes the food to be digested before there is time for it to ferment and sour on the stomach. When the food is so digested it gives strength and vigor to the feeble body, makes one feel bright and cheerful, and makes one gain in flesh. ‘The Digestive Cordial is so prompt in its action that the very first dose will have a perceptibly favorable result. It gives immeiiate relief. Jn order to prove this statement, small trial bottles placed in the druggists’ -hands can be ob- tained for 10 cents each. This trial bottle will have a decided bencticial effect and will satisfy any one that the Cordial is adapted to his case. After a trial give praise to the Shakers of Mount Lebanon, N.Y. Local Physicians Puzzled. SOUTH PETERSBURG, N. ¥.—For two months Melvin Chu of this town was confined to his Ly i vith lumbago, rheumatism and kid- n piaint. ‘The regular treatment was pro- scribed by his, physicians without benefit. Dr. David Kennedy's Favorite Remedy was then used, with the most satisfactory results In spcaking about bis ease, Mr. Church said: “After taking about two-thirds of a bottle I began and when I had taken three bottles I av Favorite Remedy will build up a person suffering from debility quicker and better than any preparation known. For dyspepsia, bilfousness, Hyer complaint, neuralgia and rheu- riatism, it has again and again succeeded where everything else has failed. America for Fitzsimmons, and any place in the world for Jackson. That's my plat- ferm.

Florida Atbleti ing the fact that the €lub was willing to forfeit $1,600 apiece himself and Corbett was sufficient indic&tion of that fact. He said the club had falled"to put up the $5,000 for- feit, and he believed he and Corbett could compel them to pay it. Fitzsimmons said He believed the battle would come off in New Orleans, as that was the only piace;they could fight without interference. Heé'sys he wants a fight to the finish, and will-meet Corbett in private for $10,600 a side.\He also suggests that the fight could come off in the bull ring in the City of Mexico. PROMISES TO BE INTEREST: NG. The Special Race Arranged for Thurs- day at Memphis.

In winning the Arlington stakes at the St. Asaph track yesterday, Mr. Belmont’s black filly, Floretta, ran the half mile in -48 3-4, within one-quarter of a second of the track record, made by High Point Belle last fall. The filly won pulled up, and had she been pushed could easily have run the distance in .48 flat or even less. The first furlong is said to have been run in .10 3-4, and the first quarter in .22 1-2, a pace which quickly disposed of Apple- gate and Lambent, the other starters. The attendance was very large, and the track was in fine shape. More than a score of bookmakers weighed in, and as four fa- vorites won, they quit losers. The winners were: Montezuma, 6 to 1; Captain T., 10 to 1; Buckrene, 4 to 5; Floretta, 2 to 5; Nick, 8 to 5; and McKee, 3 to 5.

Eurt von Bardeleben, the well-known Ger- man chess player, has left Leipsic for Lon- don, where he is matched to play against J. H. Blackburne. Yesterday was the date originally fixed for the beginning of the match, but circumstances prevented the departure of von Bardeleben until yester- day afternoon, and the match will therefore not begin until Thursday. The secretary of the Coney Island Jockey Club says that the entries for the suburban handicap and all the other stake events are up to the average to date in number, and there are many more to come by ‘mail. The official list, however, will not be ready until Thursday’ or Friday. Savcy, P. J. Dwyer’s promising brown [colt, by Salvator-Cachuca, who injured himself badly last week’ at Gravesend track, has been shot.

News has been received that a large mob of negroes Saturday night attempted to take possession of the town of Bath, N. C. They are employes at saw mills near there, and were ‘angry because some of them had been’“arrested by town officers for disorderly; cgnduct. They entered stores and bar rooms, helped themselves, and threatened people with death. They wounded four deputy sheriffs, and so ter- rorized the people that they locked them- selves, in thelr hquses to save their lives. A telegram wag,sent to Washington, six- teen miles away, for aid, and a company of troops was puf at the disposal of the sheriff.. Sunday..morning the people of Bata started out.to arrest the leading riot- ers. They captuged five. One named Lan- ier resisted and fired at the posse, and was shot twice and mortally wounded. The other prisoners; were taken to Washington in a boat. x An attempt by. gegroes to release them by a boat attack was foiled by the arrival of the militia on a steamer. All was quiet at Bath yesterday. The ringleader of the mob, Thomas EBonrer, is still at large. Se ee Wherenbouts of Maceo. The whereabcuts of Gen. Maceo, the Cu- ban insurgent leader, of whom so much was expected, are ,unknown. According to one story his bedy was found in putri- fied condition, rear Palmarita, proyince of Santiago de Cuba, where the members of his expedition were beaten by the Span- ish troops. Rumers are also current that Maceo committed suicide in consequence of the failure of his movement and be- cause he had been sick ever since land- ing in Cuba. Maceo’s party is said to be disorganized, fourteen members of the ex- pedition having been captured and all but four of the’ remainder being killed. Marshal Martinez de Campos, the captain general of Cuba, is on board of a steamer which is now off Santiago de Cuba, return- ing from his visit to Manzanillo. ALEXANDRIA AFFAIRS. — Some Sad Events From Down the River. The funeral 9f Mr. W. S. Robey, wha died Saturday morning ‘last, took place ypster- terday evening from Grace Episcopal Church, in this elty, at 3 o'clock. The fu+ neral services were conducted by the Rev. Clarence E. Ball, rector of Grace Church, and was attended by a large throng of friends of the deceased. Belle Haven Lodge, Jr. O. U. A. M.,.of which Mr. Robey was a member, attended the funeral in a body. The pallbearers were members of the coun- cil and the interment was in Bethel cem- etery. The funeral of Mr. Weberle also took place yesterday, frem St. Mary’s Church. Rev. Father Cutler, pastor of the church, conducted the funeral services, which were attended by many friends of the deceased. The interment was in St. Mary’s cemetery, the body being carried to the grave by the fellow-workmen of the deceased. Corporation Court. In the corporation court yesterday morn- ing, in the suit of Quincy A. Wheat against Anne S. Frazier and others, Judge Norton entered decrees confirming the report of Capt. K. Kemper, special commissioner, correcting mistakes in advertisement of sale, and appointing Col. F. H. Smith and Capt. K. Kemper commissioners to trans- fer the property. Alarm of Fire. An alarm of fire was started late yester- day evening, which was caused by the slight burning of some curtains in the house of Mr. Robinson, 1307 Prince street. During the excitement of the fire a woman had a fit, which still increased the intense excitement. The fire department responded promptly, but had very little work to do. Mission School Organized. The Baptist Mission Sunday School So- ciety was organized last Sunday at the home of Mr. Fletcher in the northwest sec- tion of the city. The following officers were elected: H. Hunter, superintendent; J. Fletcher, assistant superintendent; Mr. Pitts, secretary; Mrs. Elsom, treasurer, and Miss A. Minor, librarian. Notes. . Dr. Wm. R. Purvis left Sunday evening on a trip of some months to Alabama and cther.southern states for the benefit of his health. Mr. R. M. Green, who has been ill with the grip for some days, is reported very much better. Judge Norton and Messrs. Thomas Cock- rell and Harry Yohe have returned from a visit to the judge’s farm in Fairfax county. Mrs. E. Glorious is very ill at her home on Cameron street. Mrs. R. S. Windsor, who has been so ex- tremely ill for the past few weeks, died this morning at the residence of her moth- er-in-law, Mrs. D. A. Windsor, on Cameron street. Mrs. Windsor was Miss Nannie Cocker of Portsmouth, Va., and a sweet and lovely woman. Her death will be re- gretted by a large circle of friends she has made in this, her adopted home. — Cause of Mr. Huntington’s Arrest. Cc. P. Huntington is mistaken as to the cause of iis arrest. It is not Frank M. Stone who is after him, but the American Rail- way Union. During the long and bitter trial of the A. R. U. strikers at San Fran- cisco for violations of interstate law, Frank M. Stone, a politician and lawyer, was called as a witness for the prosecution. He had been a passenger on a train stop- ped by strikers, and his testimony was wanted by the government to convict them. Attorney Menteith, who defended the strikers, cross-examined Stone, and during the cross-examination elicited the fact that Stone traveled on a pass. The pass is an interstate one, but Stone said he had never used it outside of California. After this testimony Menteith applied for a warrant for the arrest of Huntington, but it was refused by the acting district attorney. Finally the federal grand jury indicted Huntington, and after government officials had waited in vain for the rail- road magnate to go west and be arrested, the warrant was sent on to New York to be served. % —___+e+—_____ Terrible Accident to a Butcher. John Tiewool, a butcher of 308 Penn street, Baltimore, yesterday morning climb- ed up oh the frame work to hang the pieces of meat on the large hooks placed there for that purpose. After he had finished he attempted to spring to the ground. He did not notice that he was so near one of the long sharp hooks. It caught his eye, enter- ing in above the eyeball and under the bone of the forehead. The whole weight of his body hung on the hook through the eye socket. He gave a terrible cry of pain as the hook entered his head. His body was convulsed. The skull bone seemed likely to break. In his struggles he threw his head back far enough for it to slip off the point of the hook. He fell heavily to the ground, fifteen feet, striking on his head in a pain- ful manner. It is feared he may have fractured his skull. The eyeball was ter- ribly gouged, protruding from_the soeket and hanging down on the cheek, revealing a hole of torn flesh. ——e+_____ Perils of the Church. é Bishop Vincent (Methodist Episcopal), in an address at Baltimore, names the “perils of the church” to be: The unlimited power of the higher officials of the church; the ability of the presiding: elders to remove men for their opinion; the power of rich men in influencing appointments, and the mistake of admitting unprepared men to the ministry. —___ ++ —___ Suicide of an Old Turfman. George Scattergood,aged forty-nine years, who has been identified with the trotting turf for a number of years, and who is known by nearly every turfman from Maine to California, committed suicide early yesterday morning in the club house at the Old Point Breeze race track at Philadelphia, by shooting himself. Mr. Scattergood had been in ill health for some time, and it is believed he took his life while temporarily insane. —+e-+—___. Suicide of a Sensitive Boy. Sam Nolan, a boy nine years old, -was teased by his mother at Fort Worth, Tex., Sunday afternoon. He told his playmates good-bye, saying he would never meet them again,got his father’s double-barreied shot- gun and blew out his brains. oo Columbia, Pa., Bankers Indicted.
