ALTON OFFICIALS GREATLY ENRAGED CHICAGO, Oct. 14—Complications | hich threaten to assume greater pro- | portions than the clash between Fed- | eral and State authority during the railway strike under Altgeld’s admin- istration promise to grow out of Gov- | ernor Tanner's seizure of the Alton railroad at Virden. General Solicitor Brown of the Chicago and Alton left for | Springfield to-day as the result of a conference between the officials of the road. Solicitor Brown, will- assume | tuation at Virden so far the Alton is concerned. Steps will be taken likewise by the Alton to secure legal redress for Governor Tanner’s ac- W | tion in refusing to allow the Alton road to unload negro miners at Virden. The officials of the Alton make no attempt to conceal their anger and cast blame upon the Governor for interfering with | a .common carrier which has authority | to operate as such under State laws. The officials of the Alton claim that one of the most sacred prerogatives of | a common carrier was outraged, and | they express their determination to find | out if the Governor of the State can | “exercise lawless force,” as they term | it, without being called to account. | Vice President and General Manager | Chappell of the Alton road called the | general solicitor and other officers to | a conference to-day. The conference | lasted only a few minutes, and at its his correspondence and departed for | Springfield. “Lawless force covers the entire sit- | uation,” said Mr. Brown. “The Gov- ernor has absolutely no right to pre- vent this road taking its pas: where-they are ticketed. It is heard of thing, and nothing can found in the laws of tne State to jus- | tify the conduct of the Governor. We can take passengers, whether colored from any other State and carry them to any des- tination upon our line. It does not mat- ter if they came under guard. We do | not recognize the ruards as such, but | as passengers. Even if they did carry | guns, we have nothing to do but to take them to where they are destined so lgng as they keep their guns out of | sight. Our course in this matter fis| plain.” “Will the road institute legal pro- ceedings at once?”’ “We will not take legal steps now,” he answered. “I shall not talk for pub- | lication about my mission to Spring- field. Next week there will be some- thing to tell. I cannot say any more now.” e IMPORTED NEGROES SENT TO ST. LOUIS| SPRINGFIELD, II., Oct. 14—The | tmported negro miners in this city were quietly escorted by Company F. Sons of Veterans, of Macomb, and Cavalry Troop B of - Bloomington, to Central Union station this afternoon the funeral of the men Kkilled at Vir- den. The negroes were gent out on the bluff line special to St. Luls. AN ANT’S BITE CAUSES INSANITY AND DEATH Alma Singer, a Pretty School Teach- | er, Perishes From Hydrophobia After Being Nipped. WICHITA, Kans., Oct. 14.—Alma Seger, | | a pretty schoolteacher, was bitten by an ant on the face to-day. She went insane ' | in a few houre and dfed of hydrophobia. | Miss Seger was attempting to open a win- | | dow, when the ant ran out of a hole and | painting.

BUT HE IS GROWING WEARY CONTINUOUS OVATION SFROM OMAHA TO THE MISSOURL Everywhere tne People Receive the Chief Executive of the Nation With Loving Demon-.- strations. Special Dispatch to The Call. ST. LOUIS, Oct. 14.—The Presidential train came into St. Louis soon after 9 o'clock this morning. About an hour before, just as the flyer was speeding across the Miss_uri River, the President breakfasted. At Spanish Lake, about fifteen miles from here, a reception committee of thirty citizens of St. Louis boarded the train to welcome the President. Among them were Governor Stephens, ex-Gov- ernor Francls and Mayor Ziegenheim. Mr. McKinley walked through the car where the members of the —ommittee were seated, and gave to each one a warm personal greeting. The President looks very tire after the trying o: “-al of the last four days. He said to General Shafter at Gales- burg, when the general inquired about his healt] “Well, general, I am wear- ing myself out by this continued out- door speaking, but I am standing it very well under the circumstances, I think.” At Union Station, when the Presiden- tial train backed in at 9:20 a. m., there was a terrific jam, every bit of avail- able space in the immense midway be- ing filled with an enthusiastic crowd of people anxious to see the chief execu- tive. The membérs of the general recep- tion committee, who had preceded the | Presidential train on a Burlington spe-, clal, lined up, and when President Mec- Kinley stepped from his car he was immediately escorted by them to the Twentieth-street entrance of the Union Depot and placed in a carriage. The Twelfth United States Infantry was drawn up on the north side of Market street, facing the station and extending along its enti:. length. When the President's carriage wheeled into Market street the veter- an§ of Santiago presented arms and the immense - throng that lined both sides of that thoroughfare broke into cheers. Hats and handkerchiefs were waved, and the President was kept busy re- sponding to the noisy welcome. Car- riages containing other members of the Presidential party and the reception committee fell in behind that of Mr. McKinley. The parade then moved east on Market street, passing - east over the principal streets of the city to the Southern 'Hotsl. After the review the. President met the members of the various committees in the hotel parlors. This over the doors were thrown open and the gen- eral public was given an opportunity to pass before the chief executive. At noon the President spoka to 15,000 people in the hall -~ the Merchants’ Exchange, the room in which Samuel J. Tilden was nominated for President in 1876, e Lis Five full. minutes of applause fol- lowed the President’s address, mingled with cries of “Hurrah for Mac,” and “Three cheérs for McKinley.” From the Merchants’ Exchange the President returned to the Southern Ho- tel, where he had luncheon. This after- noon the Presidential party took a drive through the western section of the city. The carriages were occupied as in the morning parade, but they were only ac- companied by a squad of mounted po- 2 S You can bury me wherever you want, lice.

Probably twenty thousand people were | inside the building when the address | was delivered, and twice as many more | were unable to get anywhere within | the sound of his voice. The President | was escorted to thc Coliseum by the | president and directors of the exposi- | tion. Mr. McKinley walked to the big | stage in the center of the building while the people filled the air with ter- rific applause and Sousa’s band played “Hall to the Chief.” After a short address of welcome by | President Sampson President McKinley | was presented. The address of the President was re- | ceived by his 20,000 auditors with the | wildest cheers, and at its conclusion the demonstration was simply inde- | scribable. For a short time the Presi- | dent then viewed the sights of the St. Louis Exposition, after which he left for the train. The departure from the city was mace at 11 o'clock over the Vandalia road.

SUICIDE WHO HAD "NO KICK COMING" Remarkable Letter Left by Joseph Fleis. THOUGHT HIMSELF “NO GOOD” WANTED NO FUNERAL AND NO GRAVESTONE. Bequeathed What Little Money He Had to a Santa Cruz Church and His Effects to His Landlord. Special Dispatch to The Call. SANTA CRUZ, Oct. 14—A remarka- ble letter is that left by Joseph Fleis, a suicide who was buried to-day from a local undertaking establishment. Rev. R. L. McHatton, pastor of the First Christian Church, conducted the fu- neral services, and interment was made at the Evergreen Cemetery. Fleis farewell letter, which was found in his trunk, is as follows: All to whom it may col it don’'t concern y 1 don’t suppose I am good to myseif or anybody else, and therefore might as well get off the face of the earth.

SEMI-MONTHLY DOG TRAIN MAIL AND EXPRESS TO BE CAR- RIED OVER THE ICE. An Enormous Fortune Realized by Men Who Drove Beef Cattle Into the Klondike Country. Special Dispatch to The Call. TACOMA, Wash., Oct. 14—The Arctic Express Company has completed ar- rangements for maintaining a semi- monthly dog train mail and express service to Dawson over the ice, com- mencing November & A few weeks ago | a large scow loaded with lumber and eighteen carpenters started down the Yukon. It has left a trail of substan- tial winter cabins behind it. Every fif- ty miles the scow would tie up to the bank and in two days its carpenters would construct a cabin 16x24 feet, even to floor and chinking. Following the carpenters’ scow others loaded with provisions were sent down. Each cabin was given a supply of food of every kind. During the winter these supplies will be sold to parties coming out over the ice. The last scows took the ~mployes, many of whom had their wives with them. Several relays of dog teams will be kept at each station. The list of stations and the distance between from Bennett to Dawson fol- lows: Tagish Post, 55 miles; White Horse, £0 miles; foot Lake Lebarge, 58 miles; Big Salmon, 66 miles; Little Sal- mon, 36 miles; Five Finger, 60 miles; Fort Selkirk, 60 miles; Stewart, 60 miles; Dawson, 60 miles. President Rattenbury of the Arctic Express Company made these details public to-day. Arthur Spiess has returned from Dawson, where he went as manager of Pat Galvin’s cattle expedition, which drove a thousand head of beef in over the Dalton trail. They were driven leisurely, with the result that the cattie fattened during the trip. Only six died before reaching Fort Selkirk, where the herd was slaughtered and thence rafted to Dawson. Four butcher shops were opened there, beef selling at $1 25 per pound retail and 55 cents wholesale, netting a fortune for Galvin and Spiess. Henry Blackwood of Oregen drove in | 265 cattle over the Dalton trail and also | made a good stake. He says that the | net profits on the first fifteen butchered | and retailed amounted to $3000. Word came to-day that George Gais- | ford of Dawson lost several hundred | hogs which he drove over White Pass | and was taking down the Yukon. They \ were loaded on scows which were be- | ing towed by a small steamer. The scows grounded on an invisible bar and the entire lot of swine was lost over- board. CHURCH UNITY THE AB3ORBING THEME Deputies and Bishops of the Episco- | palian Conference Discuss In- teresting Topics. WASHINGTON, Oct. 14.—Church unity was again the absorbing topic before the house of deputies of the Episcopalian conference to-day, the discussion of yes- terday being continued on Rev. Dr.Hunt- | ington’s proposition to broaden the scope | of the church by permitting Bishops to | take under spiritual guidance outside | congregations not conforming strictly to the Episcopal liturgy. The final disposition of the question | went over until Monday. The house of Bishops adopted a propo- sition extending the offenses for which Bishops may be tried to include *‘conduct unbecoming a_ Bishop.” Another hmend- ment adopted extends the provision against aifenating church property. he Bishops discussed and passed arti- cles 1V, VII and VIII of the amendments to the constitution, already passed by the house. Article VII covers the ‘‘pro- vincial system.” Nominations_were made for the vacant bishoprics in North Dakota, Sacramento and Boise, but the names were withheld until final action is taken. At 2:30 both houses adjourned in order to permit the Bishops and deputies, some 400 in number, to start on the pllerimage to Jamestown Island, near Richmond, Va., where 300 years ago the church was ye: first eslnblishes in America. —_—— Calvin Fairbanks Dead.
