EX-CONSUL WALLER HOPEFUL.
He Believes Oar Cotcrriiufn!; Will Right
the Wron I Him.
Cleveland, Oct. 14. Charles T. Max
well, a colored, medical student in this
city, has received a letter from ex-Consul
John L. Waller. The letter is dated
"Maison Centrale, du Clairvaux, France,
Sept. 8." After thanking Mr. Maxwell
for expressions of sympathy contained in
a letter he had written to the imprisoned
man, Mr. Waller says :
"It gives me great pleasure to know that
I have the sympathy and support of the
American people, who are using every hon
orable means and endeavor to secure me
my liberty. I am a victim of circum
stances, and-whethor I shall finally receive
justice at th9 hands of the French people
or perish in a foreign prison by virtue of a
hasty conviction rendered by a court mar
tial in the heat of excitement under these
circumstances rests with God and the
American people, in whose action and
righteous judgment I have the most im
plicit confidence.
, "That it is the desire or intention of the
Frepch as a government to do me an in
justice I do not for a moment believe. I
am also consoled in the knowledge of the
fact that the American people, true now
as always to their long established creed
and numerous precedents touching the
protection of American citizens abroad,
will not permit an injustice to be inflicted
upon one of their citizens by a foreign
nation, no matter how humble be that cit
izen." WILD SPANISH THREATS. ;
- i
They Will "Recapture Florida and De
mand Millions of Indemnity."
Havana, Oct. 14. The excitement and
bad feeling of the Spanish against the
American government and psople increases-
One frequently hears talk like
this:
"After we put down the Cuban insurrec
tion we will invade Florida - with 100,000
men, reconquer it and oblige the Ameri
cans to pay us $500,000,000 for allowing fili
bustering expeditions to be fitted out
against a peaceful and friendly nation like
Spain."
In case of rioting in this city, which is
not considered far off, the Americans
would be first attacked. The bull fighting
people are fearful in their frenzy. Silence
is preserved as regards the latest fighting
in Las "Vilas.
The people of the interior are afraid to
write truthful accounts of the war, as the
mails are not respected by the government.
Persons to whom such correspondence is
addressed are promptly imprisoned and all
'steps are taken to trace the writers.

THREE KILLED A1TD MANY IN JTJEED
Of a Party of Six Who Attempted to Cross
tlyj Patapsco River, in Maryland, Four
Were Drowned by the Upsetting of Their
Boat.
Pittsburg, Oct. 14. By an accident last
night on the Carnegie branch of the West
End Traction road three people were
killed and twelve or fourteen people badly
injured. The killed are: George Roth
man, furnitr "v dealer at Carnegie; Jacob
Heisel, glass dealer at Carnegie; Mrs.
Elizabeth Bishop, Pittsburg.
Injured MicliJiel Folet and wife, Pitts
burg, badly cut about head and body, both
dangerously hurt; Professor Alexander
Phillips, Pittsburg, head and neck cut,
serious; O. JV Baldin, YoungsvUle, Pa.,
skull fractured; Miss Emma Laughlin,
Pittsburg, scalp wound and both leg?
crushed; Mins Pearl Hoon, Beaver Falls,
scalp wound; unknown boy, bruised;
Robert "Willey, 10 years, badly bruised;
George Waddles, motorman, leg crushed
and head cut; Frank Mcluire, conductor,
badly bruised; Mrs. Lcetz and 6-year-old
son, both badly crushes 1, condition serious.
The names of others injured are not
known, as they left the scene without
being recognized. (
The accident happened to car No. 56 on
the lomr hill coining into tiiETvrost end on
its way to' Pittsburg Just 'as- the car
started down the heavy grade the brake
broke, and it was soon beyond th'3 control
of the motorman. -The speed became ter
rific, and when a sharp curve near the foot
of. the hill was reached the' car made a
wonderful le;'p, landing trucks uppermost
in McCarthy's run, six or eight feet below
the track grade.
The accident occurred at a lonely spot,
and it was quite a while before assistance
reached the sufferers, who were wedged
tightly in the wreck, which was most com
plete. When the conductor saw that the car
was beyond control he laid down on the
floor and advised the others to follow his
example. The killed were found wedged
under the roof of the, car, which,had been
smashed in upon them. The escape of any
of those on the car was miraculous.
DROWNED IN PATAPSCO KIVER.
Four of a Party of Six Meet a Watery
Grave.
BALTIMORE, Oct. 14. Four men were
drowned yesterday afternoon by the cap
sizing of a pleasure boat in the middle
branch of the Patapsco river. They were:
Harry Stiner, ferryman; Fred Yalkman,
bartender; Walliam A. Reynolds, baker,
and James Huston, occupation unknown.
All the men were residents of this city,
and, together with two companions, at
tempted to cross the river from Ferry Bar
to Meter's Pavillion, in Anne Arundel
county. A strong east wind made the
water very rough, and when about half
way across the boat began to fill. The men
became frightened, and in a moment the
frail craft went over, leaving the pleasure
seekers struggling in the water. A num
ber of rowboats went to the rescue, but be
fore they reached the capsized boat tne
men named had gone down for the last
time. Their companions were rescued
with difficulty, and taken to their homes.
None of the bodies have been recovered.
Opponents or a Third Term.
"Washington, Oct. 14. The Post prints
replies received from over a hundred mem
bers of congress to the inquiry as to
whether they would favor or oppose a
resolution should one be offered in the
next house stating that in the opinion of
the house" a presidential third term is
proper. Such a resolution was presented
by Representative William H. Springer,
of Illinois, upon Dec. 15, 1875, and adopted.
Seventeen congressmen announc for
various reasons that they wouldj vote
against a resolution similar to the one
presented by Mr. Springer. There is a
very decided sentiment in favor of a term
of six years, with the president ineligible
to re-election. Quite a number of con
ressmen would, limit a president to a
single term of four years.
Korea's King a Prisoner.
Paris, Oct. 14.- The Herald's, Sepul dis
patch reports that the Japanese troops
were at the gates of the palace during the
butchery incident upon the uprising of the
anti-foreigners, headed by Tai Ron Kin,
father of the king of Korea. There was
nothing to show that the Japanese minis
ter was aware of the plot. The king is
now a prisoner and his father has been
proclaimed dictator. A new cabinet has
been constituted of Japanese elements.
The queen's officials have fled. The Jap
anese, Soshi, has been arrested for the
murder of the queen.

New Haven, Oct. 11. While Dominick

The Ex-President Gave No Advice
ou the McKinlej Tariff Law.
S01IE MISLEADI1IG STATEMENTS
Corrected by the Cincinnati Commercial
Gazette, Whose Editor Was Close to Gen
eral Harrison During the L.atter'a Ad
ministration. Cincinnati, Oct. 14. The Commercial
Gazette, a strong McKinley paper, edited
by Perry S. Heath, who was close to Mr.
Harrison during his administration, says
in today's issue:
A great deal has recently appeared re
specting the attitude of President Harri
son toward the McKinley tariff at the time
of its adoption. It is contended that inthf
capacity of president General Harrison op
posed the adoption of schedules as high as
those in the McKinley bill, and that he
entered, a protest against them to those
who had the measure in charge. -
One prominent Republican newspaper
has stated recently that the McKinley tar
iff defeated Harrison's re-election and that
this fact is the cause of "Harrison's feel
ing toward McKinley." Another influen
tial Republican newspaper in the west an
nounced that during the consideration of
the McKinley bill President Harrison
summoned its author and Speaker Reed,
and possibly other party leaders, ar
warned them against the adoption of such'
high figures. , . .
The Commercial Gazette is in a position
to say that all such statements are untrue
and, misleading. -Ex-President Hr.r-ison
deserves neither censure nor praiso oa 'ac
count of the McKinley tariff law. He took
no part in drafting or thy consideration of
the measure. No feature of the law, so
far as those who compiled it are aware,
represented his particular views or met
with his specific disapproval.
Repeatedly President Harrison, when
asked by those drafting the bill, what he
thought of it, slated that the details should
be left to those in charge of the measure;
that they were responsible to the people,
and were most familiar with : the subjects
in hand. He offered no advice.
W'netf? e bill went to the White House
;rlor sigilature th& resident did not. so far.
I as is known, show any displeasure or offer.

ever held responsible for the defeat of 1892,
President Harrison should stand blame
less. South Carolina Constable Assassinated.
Columbia, S. C, Oct. 14. At Green
wood, S. C, J. J: Mosely, a liquor con
stable, was :-hot in the back of the head
yesterday and instantly killed. Mosely
had j list seized some liquor' coming in on
a late train. He was accompanied by a
trial justice's constabJe and had a' warrant.'
"While storing the whiskey in the depot a
negro seized a jug and ran. Mosely fired
two shots at him, and just then was shot
dead from behind. Four negroes have
been arrested, and are guarded in the
guardhouse. It is believed that there was
a conspiracy to assassinate the constable,
but so far there is no substantial evidence
against any one.
Famonn Trick Horse Killed In a Wreck.
Waterbtjry, Conn., Oct. 14. A serious
freight wreck occurred here last night,
when two parts of a broken train came
together.. Ten cars loaded with trotting
horses, live stock and other exhibits from
