LONDON, July 17.—A Berlin dispatch to fhe Daily News reports that the Vossische Zeitung says that the Stambuloff outrage was political. The Bulgarian government I8 pro- nounced @8 accessory to the crime and Prince Ferdinand I also accessory. With the death of Stambuloft the banner of Bulgarian inde- pendence sinks to the ground and the land be comes a Russian province. The National Zeitung says that July 15 was @ black day for Bulgaria, for not only Stam- buloff, but most probably independent Bul garla received ts deathblow. The Standard’s Carlsbad correspondent says: The Stambuloff vutrage caused a great sensa- tion here. Prince Ferdinand of Bulgaria Is staying in the English quarter incognito, sur rounded by detectives. He i rarely seen and sits at a corner table In the Posthof cafe out- #lde Carlsbad every morning with a large suite. He s almost invisible for the rest of the day. He now, as at the time of Major Panitza's execution, goes about in fear of his life, All the London newspapers have severe articles on the Stambuloff affair, condemning Prince Ferdinand and the Bulgarian govern ment M. Stambuloft was slightiy improved last evening. His heart was stronger and his in- tellect unimpaired. Numerous messages ex pressing Indignation have been recelved. Al though the attempt to murder was made on a busy street, no one came to his assistanc All seem to be convinced that the police were in the plot to assassinate the ex-premie five members of the police force who w near him when he was attacked made no & tempt to Interfere. Then again one of the Stambuloft servants chased one of the assas- sins, but the man was stopped by the police M. Stambulof’s coachman, who fired his re volver but missed hitting anybody when the ex premier's assaflants attacked the carriage 18 al=o believed to have been one of those who plotted against the statesman's life, as he made no attempt to whip up his horses when the attack was made The police and detachment of cavalry pa- trolled Sofia throughout last night, but seem to have found no trace of the assassing except some daggers which were found In the streets 1t developed during the day that M. Star bulofft has long been convinced that he wou fall a victim to the vengeance of the friends of Major Panitza, whom he caused to be exe cuted after he had been found guilty of treason in 1890 in conspiring against the lifc of Prince Ferdinand. Since the refusal of the government to give M. Stambuloff his pass- port to Carlsbad representatives of the diplo matie corps here have frequently called the attention of the government to the fact that they had become aware that an attempt on the ex-premier's life was Impending. It is gtrange to add that not a single member of the cabinet has called upon M. Stambuloff since the latter was wounded, SOFIA, July 17.—5 p. m.—The condition of ex-Premier Stambouloff has grown worse ani symptoms of cerebral affection have devel oped. His right eye is not gouged out like tho other, but he has lost the sight of it. The doctors in attendance upon the patient glve no hope of his recovery. Nevertheless the government organ, Mir, announces that he will be restored to health In a few weeks, A reward of 10,000 francs has been offered for the discovery of his assallants. ST. PETERSBURG, July 17.—The Nova Vremya, referring to the attempt to assassi- nate ex-Premier Stambouloff of Bulgaria, ex- presses the opinion that the government of Prince Ferdinand might have saved the life of M. Stambouloff by bringing him to trial. In any case, the Nova Vremya adds, it was a barbarous deed and revolts not only the friends but the foes of the ex-premier. The Novosti remarks: The removal of M Stambuloft was needed by those to whom the present circumstances were most ‘dangerous. The Sviet sees the hand of God in the coin- cidence thrg he was struck at the time when the Bulgarfan deputation was at St, Peters- burg “begging oblivion for the evil wrought by him."” MORE COMING THAN WERE EXPECTED Large Attendunce in Prospect for Congress of Religion and Edueition. TORONTO, Ont., July 17.—The Panameri- can Congress of Religion and Education opens fn this city tomorrow. For the evening ses- slon in Music hall Friday, which will be ad- dressed by Archbishop Ireland of St. Paul and Mr, Montague, secretary of state for Can- ada, more than 7,000 persons have already sked for tickets. As the hall affords ac- commodation for only 5,000 persons, the com- mittee is In a dilemma. The trustees of al- most every church fn the city have informed the secretary that the buildings will-be open for use by the sections Into which the con- gress will divide from time to time. The delegates have already begun to arrive, and when the first session s called to order in the horticultural pavilion at 8 o'clock Thursday afternoon, almost every section of North, Cen tral and South America will be represented The subjects to be discussed cover every phase of life on all the great social questions of the day. The program includes the names of men and women whose fame has spread beyond the country where they live. MAY REOPEN THE EASTERN QUESTION Turkey Regurds the Stambouloff lucident s Serlous. CONSTANTINOPLE, July 17.—The at- tempted assassination of ex-Premier Stam bouloff of Sofla, Bulgaria, caused a great sensation, and news from Bulgaria is looked forward to with much anxiety. In fact, it | Is predictel that the whole eastern question will be reopened. The Turks are actively constructing earth- works at Mustapha Pasba, in Roumella, and a mountain baitery has been dispatched to the Uskub district. Troops have been sent from Salonica to quell a reported insurrec- tlon near Strumitz e Kepublican League Committee Convened, CHIC , July 17.—General E. A.' Me- Alpine of New York, president of the N tlonal Republican league, has directed Acting Secretary Humphrey to call a meeting of the national executive committee of the league at the Great Northern hotel, Chicago, Au- gust 14, to consider: First.

BALTIMORE, July 17.—By train and boat delegates and delegations to the international convention of the Baptist Young People's Union of America are constantly arriving. They are coming thousands strong and are keeplug the reception comwmitiees busy at rf and depot. BEach delegate, as he rek- isters, I8 glven a souvenir program, map of Baltimore, advertising fan, booklet guide to | the city of Baltimore and a convention badge. A lodging vlace i3 also assigned each dele- Bate o seat against 8ir Herbert Naylor-Leyland, the liberal candidate. The two candidates, ac companied by their wives, are driving about rallying thei forces, and great squads of men and women cyclists, as well as horses and rigs, are to be seen on all sides wearing the favors of the rival politicians. All the bieyclists had their party colors streaming from their handle bars and the Curzon riders formed an escort for Mr. and Mrs, Curzon, while the Naylor-Leyland wheel- men formed then lves into a body guard for the purpose of cheering on their candi- date. The radicals are making the most of Sir Herbert Naylor-Leyland's belated denial that he purchased his baronetcy. While a body of about 170 liberal bicyclers were es- corting Sir Herbert and Lady Naylor-Ley- land, several drunken conservatives, wheel- ing ‘a_barrow painted with Curzon colors dashed among them and sent many of the riders sprawling right and left. A lively scrimmage followed, Sir Wiillam Vernon Harcourt, speaking at Abercairne today, said that he accepted the honor of contesting West Monmouth in the cause of temperance. He added that he was a firm liberal and would stick to the grand old man even if every one else de- serted him. There are also lively times today at Leeds, eclally in the west division, where Colonel the conservative candidate, is said to have good prospects of defeating the liberal candidate, Rt. Hon. Herbert J. Glad stone, son of Rt. Hon. W. E. Gladstone. Colonel North, with his family and half a dozen secretaries, a number of servants and ses galore, is occupying the principal hotel and is conducting a clever campalgn He points particularly to the humble cot tage where he was born.

The feature of the morning was the criticism of the com- pulsory manual system of instruction in vogue at the Agricultural college of Michigan, by Prof. Clute of Florida. His theory was that this should be done away with and a more useful system substituted. This aroused the Michigan delegates and they answered Prof. Clute's remarks with a vigorous defense of the system of thelr institution. Thie paper of Prof. A. C. True of the Wash- ington experiment station developed consider- able interest among the delegates, and his description of the method of work in use there was a great benefit, The resolution introduced at the convention held a year ago changing the name of the association was laid on the table and will probably not be considered until another year, This afterncon there was no general session There were well attended meetings of the sec- tions on agriculture and chemistry, mechan- ical arts and etymology.

Mrs, Howard has been busy all day getting ready for a trip to Philadelphia tonight in answer to a telegram from District Attor ney Graham. Mrs. Howard received the notice at noon today. When asked about her knowledge of the Pitzels she said Upon that subject I have nothing to say." She was told that it was reported she would swear that Howard was not in To- ronto at the time the Pitzel children were murdered She replied: “I decline to make any statement on that subject.” Mrs. Howard's mother here interposed with: “That report is certainly not true.’ Mrs. Howard said that she was at Indian- apolis part of last September and October when Howard and the Pitzel children were thers Asked it she knew the Pitzel girls and the Pitzel boy h disappeared, Mrs Howard said: “Why, I never Knew there was such a family in existence and how could T know what became of the boy? 1 \ever heard of the Pitzel family until my ushand was I “Did you ever see the father of th children?" “Yes. T knew him in Fort Worth, Tex vhere he worked on a business block which Mr. Howard was building, but he went under another name. 1 did not know he had a family." Mrs. Howard was asked what she knew ibout Howard having other wives, and re- plied that she knew nothing about it, but had heard it said that he had. Here Mrs. Yoke explained that there is no evidence that Howard ever married any ther woman than her daughter and said that her daughter and Howard were marricd in December and that the marriage certifi- cate was in her possession. Mrs. Howard also stated that she knew her husband had lived in Fort Worth from February to April, 1894, and after that al- most everywhere. Mrs. Howard gave evi- lence that she knew just where to stop talking. She appeared to be uneasy thut her mother would mething that ought 10t to be said. Nothing could be obtaine: from her that would indicate that she had iy knowledge of Howard's crookedness and crimes or that she is any other than a levoted wife HOLMES TACITLY CONFESSES. PHILADELPHIA, July 17.—H. H. Holmes alias Herman Mudgetts, has virtually con- fessed to the murder of the two children hose bodies were found in the cellar of a Toronto house. This much was learned at the office of the district attorney during the two hours' interview Holmes had yesterday with three members of the district at- torney's steff. “l suppose I'll swing for this,” is the only remark dropped from Holmes' lips which in any way tends to incriminate him and the district attorney aims this is a practical admission of guilt. otwithstanding Holmes' remark, his counsel ays he can prove an alibl in his client's ase. He says that Holmes was not in Toronto when the Pitzel children were murdered. This he says can be proven by Mrs. Howard, Holmes' third wife, who is at present living with her mother in Franklin, Ind. The authorities place but _litte credence in the alibi story and are satisfied Holmes is the murderer. TORONTO. July 17.—A further search of the premises where the bodies of the two Pitzel children were found will be made in hopes of finding the missing boy, Howard, aged 9, although the detectives are satisfied he was murdered and cremated at Detroit After the conclusion of the inquest, at which a verdict of murder will undoubtedly be re- turned against Holmes, Detective Geyer will g0 to Philadelphia with a warrant Isseud by the Canadian authorities and a demand for his extradition will be made, JURORS MAY EAT AND SLEEP Judge Caldwe'l Chinges the Rule of Administering (nt CHEYENNE, July 16.—(Special)—Judge Caldwell of the United States circuit court, who presided at the sitting of the federal court in this city last week, made a radical change in the methods of handling jurfes. At the conclusion of the charge to the jury in the case under trial the clerk was adminis- tering the usual oath to the baillff: “You do solemnly swear that you will to the utmost of your ability keep every person sworn in this jury together, in some private ard con- venient place, without meat or drink, except water,” when he was suddenly Interrupted by Judge Caldwell, who said: “Mr. Clerk, do not administer that oath.” And turning to the jury he continued: “Gentlemen, I killed a man once by having that oath carried out. You heard what the bailiff was to do with you; keep you without meat or drink, or any- thing else. I do not follow that practice, The duty_that jurors are called upon to perform in the administration of justice is as im- portant as that of the judges. They ought to be treated with that consideration and re- spect due to men engaged in discharging im portant officlal duties. The way to enable | jurors to discharge their duties intelligently is to afford them every facility for deliber- ating on the issues submitted to them under conditions of mind and body that will evoke their cool deliberation and best judgment Starving, freezing, deprivation of sleep and denial of all comforts is not the best mode of doing this. The old methods of treating jurors was cruel, barbarous and inhuman. It was degrading to them and to the administra- tion of justice. There is no reason why Jurors should not be treated as respectfully and rationally while determining the issues in a case as the judges. You may go to your room, and if you agree upon a verdict before supper time the court will receive it. If you are not able to agree upon a verdict before supper time you will adjourn and go to your supper. You can return after supper and deliberate as long or as short a time as | you like, and you may continue to adjourn | for your meals and for sleep until you have agreed upon a verdict or are discharged by the court. e ——— Sioux Falls Laborers Strike. SIOUX FALLS, 8. D., July 17.—(Special.) —The carpenters and day laborers, about fifty in number, at work on the big packing house struck yesterday morning for higher wages.

TORREY.” S tid DEBATE TURNS INTO A FREE-FOR-ALL Several Outsiders Lend the Only Exc te- ment in the Horr-Harvey Debute, CHICAGO, July 17.—The Harvey-Horr duel today developed into a general engagement representatives of Philadelphia, Kansas City, Cleveland and elsewhere pitched into the scrimmage after the two principals had hacked each other up to the limit. The outsiders who ventured into the fight In- cluded H. L. Bliss, 0. B. Gunn and E. B. Sarr. The hostilities of the day began by Mr. Horr remarking in a pointed manner that Mr. Harvey “read an essay here yes- terday upon the condition of the world during the Fifteenth century and particularly up to the discovery of America in 1492. He read the statement without its having been callea out at all by me, as I had not attacked that part of his book. But he made such an elaborate effort to show the condition of things n the world from 1400 to 1530 that I have taken a little jains to find out, if I could, whether there is any truth in the representa’ tions that he makes and I find that history leaves him in a bad condition in that regard as it does in regard to the bulk of the state ments in “Coin’s Financial School.” Continuing, Mr. Horr endeavored to show that the lot of the millions in Europe was sing before 1492, and that of the feudal aristocracy, with its tyranny was crumbling to a fall. 'He said: “Mr. Harvey and his free silver friends identify prosperity and the progress of man with the lot of the feudal nobility of Europe and not with that of the toilers. Later I shall show that in hi treatment of the present, as of the past, Mr. Harvey stands as the exponent of the rich and not of the tollers, whose welfare should be considered by the legislation of the state.” In reply Mr. Harvey said that fn his re- marks yesterday, to which Mr. Horr was now objecting, he volunteered to explain the pre- face of the “school” without waiting for it to be attacked. Mr. Harvey insisted that the allegations of fact which he made in his book, and yesterday, had been taken from the official report of the United States monetary commission of 1876. He showed this, not to enter into an argument on the poiitical economy of the Fifteznth century, but to show that those who had accused him of forgery were wrong. He said, furthermore, that Mr. Horr should not get him at any point of the debate to divert his mind from the regular argument and local arrangement of the debate. Mr. Horr then went back to yesterday's discussion of® what constitutes the unit of value. Therefore, Mr. Harvey took up the demonetization of silver, the act of 1873 The time until the close of the debate was aken up in the discussion of this legislation. Questions were then in order. H. L. Bliss questioned Mr., H. ey as to figures in his book relative to the coinage of silver previous to 1873. Mr. Harvey admitted that he did erroncously state the amount at $37,000,000 less than the amount of silver actually coinea before 1873, However, it had been in the interest of his argument to state the amount at all therefore it would stand 0. B. Gunn of Kansas City caused Mr. Harvey to explain at length the amount and denomination of the silver colnage previous to 1873. Questions by a_ score of others were asked and answered, but th> discussion was of a rambling nature, The debate will be resumed at 10 o'clock tomorrow morning. e Miners hnprisoned by a Cave I IRON MOUNTAIN, Mich., July 17.—Poor timbering caused a cavein on the first level of the Pewabac mine this afternoon. Nine men are imprisoned under forty feet of broken rock, ore and timber. The fall of rock came just ‘as the men were quitting work, and it is feared that some of the missing men were caught and crushed to death. A big rescue crowd is at work, but it will be ten hours before the men can be reaclied. It is known that some of the entombed men are alive, as communication with them has been estab lished by hammering on the pipe which sup- plies the level with air. The mine officials are confident that the men will be found unin- jured. Five of the men are Italians, two Cornishmen and two Scandinavians. Stephen Bowden, Fred Webb and John Johnson are the only names known Arrested for Burals ~ehool. ROCHESTER, N. Y.

Yznaga, who I8 here for a divorce, was very much astonished yesterday when & Yankton policeman arrested him for riding a bicycle on & sidewalk and hustled bim Into police court, where the presiding justice imposed a ! fine of $8 upon him, Under Command of the Sheriff the Army Will Surround and Capture All the Indian Folice and Arrest Unptain Beck. Repeating rifles are going to be at a pre- mium in Omaha today, and they are golng to meet with a very realy sale, if the states ments of W. E. Peebles and G. 8. Harris can be relied upon. These two men came down from Pender last night, and acting as the spokesman, Mr. Peebles told a tale that dripped with blood “We are in Omaba for the purpose of buye iIng 100 Winchester rifles and 10,000 car~ tridges,” sald Mr. Peebles, as a starter. Asked what he intended to do with all ot these munitions of war, Mr. Pecbles added: “Last Tuesday Judge Norris of Ponca issued an injunction restraining Indian Agent Beck from ejecting the settlers from the Winne- bago reservation. Mr. Beck has disregarded the terme of that injunction, and has been and is now putting the settlers oft the lands which they have leased from the Flournoy Land_company. We are not warlike people in Thurston county. but we propose to see that the law I8 obeyed,”™ continued Mr. Peebles. “After the fnjunction was issued and notice served upon Beck, instead of calling off his police he continued his evictions, arresting and hand= cuffing the men like convicts. The women anl children his Indian police loaded into ings were dumped in a heap. The crops and personal belongings of the settlers have been left without protection, to be destroyed by the herds of cattie that may range through them The business men of Pender have tired of this lawlessness upon the part of Mr. Beck and his Indian police, and now they propose to see that justice is meted out and that the orders of the courts of Nebraska are en- forced, even if it requires the shedding of blood. SIGNED A ROUND ROBIN, “Today the people of Pender were wrought up to the high: e, and after all of the iros and cons of the matter had been dis- cussed, a paper was prepared and circulated ameig the business men and best citizens of the town. When we left, between fifty and sixty signatures had been’ secured, each man pledging himself to the following: ‘We, the undersigned citizens and residents of Thurs- ton county agree to support the sheriff of the. sald Thurston county in executing the orders. of the state courts.’ ach subscriber, continued Mr. Pecbles, “has agreed to supply himself with a Win~ chester rifle and 100 cartridges, all to be. placed at the disposal of the sheriff of Thurs- ton county. “As soon as enough subscribers had at- tached their names to the agreement to cons he people that they were in for busi= Mr. Har-is and myself were appointed mmittee to come to Omaha and buy the rifles and the cartridges. We will visit the stores that deal in such goods, make our purs chases and ship them to Pender, where they will be received by the sheriff, who wiil make the distribution. Having made our purchases, we shall return to our homes and await re- sults, “Of course there will be more than 100 armel men. At this time there are 150 men in and about Pender who can arm them- selves at a moment's notice with either rifles, shotguns or revolvers, thus giving us a force. of 250 who will see that the order of Judge Norris is carried into effect. “Beck's forces are not as great as some. people lave supposed, having only about sixty police. Of course they are armed and might show fight, yet they would not be. able to cope with us, as the sherif's posse. would outnumber them 4 to 1. WILL GOBBLE 'EM UP. Asked what would happen if the Ind police showed fight, Mr. Peebles said: “‘Some. one will be hurt. The sheriff proposes to arrest every Indian who attempts to violate the court’s order. When an Indian ls ar- rested he will ba put in charge of a guard d held until a squad has been gathered to- gether, after which the red men will be marched down to Pendcr and locked in jail, After we have cleared the reservation of these policemen we will march to the agency, where we will beard the llon in his den, We will Invite Mr. Beck to come down off the perch and if he does not come, we will place him under cst, charging him with violating the order of the court.” Asked If the United States army might not take a hand, Mr. Peebles said that he thought not. “The Interior department might Issue some kind of an order,” he said, “but the War department will keep its hands off. Concerning the time for the warlike demon~ stration to begin, Mr. Peebles sald: “The time is not far distant. The people are rips for the fray and they do not propose to put up. with the outrages which have bsen perpe- trated upon them for months. We are united this time, and we will stand together as one man until equal justice is meted out to the wronged residents of Thurston county.
