s SACRED ARTICLES COME HIGH Remarkable Dispute Growing Out of the McKinley Tariff. IMAGES OF CHRIST NOT IMPORTED FREE, Interesting Decision of a Chicago Jurist- Public Policy Opposed to All Combinations—Enor- mous Lake Trafe, Cutcano Orrice or Tue Bre, } Cicaco, July 23. ‘There was received at the office of Collector Clark today a decision of tho general board of appraisers at New York which is perhaps the most remarkable that ever grow out of a dispute over the McKinley tariff. The de cision is in short that imported images of the Sovior of mankind, made of cortain materials, must pay o tariff of 45 per cent. In January of this year Ole Munger of this city imported on the French steamer La Glascogne a number of images of Christ dy- ing on the cross, Appraiser Pierson put the tariff up to the highest notch, viz: 60 per cent. Mr. Munger objected and appealed to the board of general appraiscrs, but after con- sidering all the facts the bourd rendered a dectsion in this ooldblooded way: *The corpus or body of Christ is made of metal or nickel plated and 1s four and a half fnches in length. Above the head of the figure of our Savior is a metal scroll contain- ing the letters J. M. R. 1, and beueath tho foct of the samo is a skull und cross bones, while a thin band of metal containing tue i scription: ‘Remembrance of Jerusalem,’ is tacked to the lower edgo of tho base. The evidonce of the manufacturcrs and oxpert wituesses who appeared before us was to the effect that the metal constituted about 60 per cent of the complete article. We, there- fore, find tho articles in guestion one com- posed of wood and metal. metal being tho component material of chief value. The action of the collector In assessing the duty upon these goods at 45 per cont ad volorem under paragraph 215 of the new tarift is affirmed.” IMMENSE BUSINESS ASSURED. “Wo will be gotting 10 contsa bushel on wheat from Duluth by September 1, and 6 ceats from Chicago,” swmid the general manager of a leading lake and railroad line todap. “I have estimates of the amount of ‘wheat which is to go forward from Duluth and there are enough boats to carry it. The iron manufucturers are going to take all tho dron ore they can get for the balauce of tho season, and a big boom for lake vessels is at hand. The sentiment among vessol ownors is now decidedly bullish and immense business &t high rates is anticipated from August 1 to the close of navigation. OPPOSED TO COMBINATIONS. A clean cut decision on public policy was found among the opinions filed in the ap- llate court today. . Wilson Moore and J. .. Bennett were members of an organization known as the Chicago Law Stenographers’ association, which had adopted a schedule of rates. Moore entered into @ contract with the county of Cook to report the Cronin murder trial at the rate of $10 per day for at- tondance and tho regular rates for tran- scripts as established by the association. It is said that Bennott knew of the agree- ment, yet offered to do the work for § a day and charge less for transcripts. In this way Moore was compelied to do the job at Ben- new's figures, and after the trial he sued Bennett for 5,000, the difference between the contract prices, which he says he lost owing to Bennett's violation of the associa- tion agreement. The court below found in favor of Bennett. Moore took an appeal and Judgo Waterman today in a decision of som length held that the agreement on which Moore sought to recover was in restraint of trade and sustained the decision of the lower court.

It.hes been supposed that with the death of the great leader of tho Yaqui Iudians, Chief Cajome, the Indian war in Mexico had ceased. Such, according 10 the story told, is not the case.

Speaking of the mining interests in the Black Hills Dr. McG cuddy smd : “Wo are watching the new Deadwood with a great doal of intorest. [f the process of smeiting introduced in the Hills by this new smelter broves to be a success it wil bo the cause of opening up an immense amount of low grade smelting. This new smelter of which I speak is an immense affair and is to be operated by what is known as tho pyritic systom. If this is a practicable ml-Hml] of red ngores a vast amount of low grade ore, now utterly useless becauss it will not pay for shipment auy great distance, will bo w b profit. These ores will run from per ton, and where the smeltor is located near at hand a very profit- able businoss can be established in reducing them." *Will the establishment of these smelters 1n the Hills bo likel: to shipment of high grade I think not.” The high grade ores that run from &30 to 50 per ton and upward will still bo shipped very largely to the Omaha and Denver smelters.’” Lot Sy ELOPED WITH 4 smelter at pyritic affect the MBLER. A Wealthy Shamokin Girl Disappears with Handsome Harry Latimer. SuaMOKIN, Pa., July 23.—A sensation has been caused here by the clopement of “Hand- some Harry,” the king of Pennsylvania gamblers, and Miss Lizzie Johnson, daughter of Lawyer Johnson, who for forty-five years was register and recorder of Montour county, and who died nearly a year ago leav- ing $100,000. Miss Lizzic is a graduate of the Boston conservatory. She is a beautiful brunette, and her musical talent, together with the high stanaing of the Johnson family, made her a great favorite in society. H y Latimer has long been called the king of gamblers. He has won and lost thousauds of dollars, his most famous play having been made in Philadelphia some years ago, when helefta gambling house with §3,000. It is said that he a wife and several children n_Wilkesbarre, Several weeks ago he went to Danville and met Miss Johnson. She became infatuated with him. Her brother ordered him to stop his visits. A week ago last Saturday he went to tho Johnson mansion, where he was metat the door by the girl's brother, who ordered him not to enter. As “Handsome Harry' was about to leave, Miss Lizzie appeared and sat “If he loaves I leave.”” The following Monday morning the girl packed her trunk and left the mansion, saying she would earn her living for u year and then marry *Hand- some Harry.” Miss Johnson disappeared and from thav time her whereabouts have been shrouded in mystery. Latimer also vanished. The Joan- son estate has not been settled and it will be some months before Miss Lizzie will be able to secure her part of the fovtune. She has, however, about $15,000.

RPOOL, July 2 In an interview Cap- saunders of the new American steamer Charles W. Wetmore, which sailed from Duluth, Minn., onJune 11, arriving here Tuesday, says that during the fourteen days’ voyage between Cape Breton and Liverpool, the vessel averaged nine knots an hour. He states that she was much less susceptible to the action of winds and waves than a vessel of the ordinary type. She had experienced strone winds, sending waves over the port quarter, and this, verhaps, was the severast test to which she could have been subjected. ‘The fact that the steamer neither pitched nor roiled heavily, the motion being much less than that of an ordinary steamer, he thought was proof of the superior gowg qualities of whalebaoks. Since entering the Waterloo dock the Wet- more has been inspected by numerous ship owners and ship builders, many of whom have expressed the opinion that the new tvpe of vessel will revolutionize the freighting commerce of the ocean. Mr. Hastings, chief mate on the Wetmor 1y countered any quantity of beam seas and justified the expectations of her proigctors, scarcely rolling at all. The surveyors of the Wetmore cargo, which consists of 405,000 bushels of grain, have de- clared it to be in the finest of condition. It is reported that a designer has_ planned whaleback passenger steamer with two rows of decks supported by pillars, KILLID BY A VICIOUS HORSE. Horrible Death of George Ross at St. Louis. Sr.Louts, Mo., July 23.—Georgo Ross meta horrible death yesterday. His omployer sent him out to arive a stray horse from the yard adjoming tho residence. Whon Ross ap- proached tholiorse it rushed at him and bit him in the forehead and check. Ross started 10 run across the field and the horse pursuing him knocked him down and attempted to trample on him. Ross succeeded again in getting out of the way and jumping to his feet tried to escape. The horse, however, pursued him and bit his shoulder, tearing a large piece of flesh from it. Tho man screamod in agony and the attention of o negro who was passing was attracted by it. Ho instantly jumped the fence and picking up o pieco of rail started toward the mun and beaston & run. Beforo he could reach tho man the horso hau knocked Ross to tho ground and this time struck him on the head with his hoof, istantly killing bim. Just at this juncture the negro arrived on the spot, but ‘tripped over the rail and fell totho ground, striking his head on a stone and was rendered unconscious. Tho horse paid no attention to the negro, who, after the in- furiated beast had been shot, was brought to univjured. Ross' body was shockingly bruised and bis whole right cneek torn out, his shoulder gone, his Lead crusnhed in like an egg shell and the brains scattered about ou tho ground. Ho leaves a wifo and two children. Shot at the Ceiling. Cnicaco, July 23.—Henry Adkins created # decided sensation in tho board of trade by appearing in the great hall about 11 o'clock and firing t) ve0 shots from & large revolver toward the ceiling, He was quickly over- vowered and turned over to the police, Ho says ho has a claim against Thomas Wolls, manager for Kirkwood & Co., and has boen unablo to obtain satisfaction, = Ho had no in- tention of harming any one, but fired the shots to scare Wells and with'a view to get- ting his case into the courts, where he could tell’ his “story.

Hearts of the Ticket Brokers Made Happy by an Extended Mar- gin on Through Business. Cnicaco, July 23.—General Passenger Agent Charlton of the Alton wrote today to Chairman Finley of the Western Passenger ng it had been found necos- sary to change the Alton's position somewhat in regard to Grand Army rates. The Alton comes in direct competition with the Central Traflic association lines at points in 1linois and, the letter says, must therefore adopt the Central Trafic associations limit and form of tickets to Detroit and raturn. The letter adds : “What we do for veterans in 1llinois we cannot consistently decline to do for veterans in Missouri. We shall, tlerefore, adopt the same limits and fovm of ticket on all our lines in Lllinois and Missouri, We are unable to understand why your assoctation did not do this and why you aro less generous to the veterans than the Central Trafic associa- tion.” This action of the Alton will extend the limit on the Grand Army tickots which aro sold July 31, August t and 2 good going on or before August 3, and good for return passage t and including August 18, These tickets will bo sold from Kansas City to Chicago, St. Louis or Cincimnati and return, a round trip rate of 17 having been made to Cincinnati in connection with the Ohio & Mississippi. The rate to St. Louis and roturn will be .50 and to Chicago and return $10. After writing the above letter Goneral Passenger Agent Charlton lnarned that the Wabash had cut the rate from St. Louis to Detroit and return to §3. As the Wabash has consented to accept Alton tick- ets_this will enable the Alton to quote a rate of §14.50 from Kansas City to Detroit and re- turn by way of St. Louis, and Chairman F' ley was promptly advised that such a rate would be made. Mr. Finley has called a meeting of the interested lines for Saturday to consider the situation as affected by the attitude of the Alton and the Wabash and to decide what further action is necessary. TRICKS OF THE WABASIL It has been discovered that the Wabash road has filed with the interstate commerco commission a tariff in connection with the Missouri, Kansas & Texas road quoting & rate on _coal from Toledo to the Missouri river of 70 cents per ton lower than the es- tablished rate via Chicazo. The reduction has not been reported to the chairman of the Western Traflic association nor the Western Freight association, and apparently is just such a violation of the agreement as the ono that Central Trafic Manager Leeds of the Missouri Pacific took as his position. It also said that the Wabash, in connection with the Burlmgton and the Keokuk & Northwestern, is making a rate of 15 cents on nails from St. T.ouis to St. Paul. The rate on nails from Chicago to St. Paul is 20 cents, and that from St. Louis is supposed to be 21 cents, ABOUT THE NEW DEPOT.

A Document Detailing Grievances ‘Which Need Righting. CixersNary, O.,July 23, —Mr. Rovert Schil- ling presented the Associated press with a copy of the printed address by the national executive committee of the people’s party to the citizens of the United States. It occupies four closely printed small octavo pages, 1t sets out with a genoral statement of griev- ances, which occupies about one-fourth of the document. In this statement are such phrases as the following: “The declaration of inde- pendence from tl:e arrogance of British poli- ticlans must be supplemented by a declaru- tion of independence from the frightful pow- ers of conceutrated wealth;” ‘‘we considec violeuce in setuling disputes as unworthy of a civilized nation, and for this reason we have organized a party of the people to overthrow the tyrants who have and are continuing to rob us of that to which they have no moral right.” The document then goes on with a specification of evils in the matter of land, labor and money, and in conclusion suggests the remedy. Tho concluding paragraph ap- peals, in the namo of the liberty for which the fathers of the republic pledged their lives, for the aid of every honest man in this strugglo by joiniug the party of the people. B Claimants and Attorneys. Ivis important that claimants under the Tnawan depredations law should understand that all contracts made by them with attor- neys were cancelied and anoulled by that act. Section 9 of the law explicitiy says that “:all contracts heretotoro made for fees and allowauces to claimants’ attorneys are hereby aeclared void,” and the secretary of the treasury in issuing warrants for judg- ments 1s required to make them payablo only to claimants, their lawful b rs or other ropresentatives specified in the act, “except 80 much thereof as shall be allowea the claimants' attorneys by the court for prose- cuting said claim, which may be paid direct to such attorneys,” and the amount of the allowance which shall be mado is specified. The claim agents and attorneys are making a fight on the law upon;the ground that con- gress has no powerito annul private con- tracts, and hold that eontracts fnvolving a contingent fee areiprevocable, Claimants who are thus inforined,should pay no atten- tion to it. Their obvigusly wise ana proper course is to be_guided by the provisions of the law, which are-se” plain and explicit that no oune can esbias to the mean- g, and to pay''no regard to op- inions or repredentations of men whose interest it is t#defeat the intent of the law.

New Yonk, July 23.—Everybody on Long Tsland regards Mr. Austin Corbin as the in- dividual owner of the Long Tsland railroad, of three-quarters of tho island and of a blanket mortgage on the other quarter, As aresult he is constantly re ng letters making all kinds of complaints. He received aletter recently from a correspondent who complained that somo newly paiuted green benches had been placed in'the forry in the Bay Ridro; that he had seated himself on oué of these benches and the paint had ruined a pair of trousers worth $, for which he wanted pay. Mr. Corbm replied to the writer that the ‘Staton Island ferry company owned the ianding at Bay Ridge and the green-painted venches of whicl he com- plained were theirs, and that he had abso- lutely nothing to do with the ferry. But out of compassion for his correspondent, ho offered, 1f the ciothes were sent to his office, to have an attempt mado to clean them with benzine, failing in which, ho agreed to put a patch on them. At last accounts ho had not recelved the trousers. Esas sl SR U PERSONAL PARAGRAPHS. J. G. Tate of Hastings is at the Millard. John Barsby of Fairmont is at the Murray. J. 1.
