Baltimore, Md , Sept. s. —The Manu facturers’ Reeurd says that the announce ment of new cotton mills projected in the South during the last three months ex ceed that of any similar peri d in the history of eotton-mili building in this section. There were reported seventy sevon mills, which will have an aggre gate of over 31)0,000 spindles, which, added to the 500,000 spindles to be put in mills that had been reported prior to May 31, makes a total of about 800,000 spindles to be added to the number now in operation in the South. If these mills are all built, as indications promise, the aggregate investment will represent something over $16,000,000. The rapid expansion of the interests of the South and the phenomenal activity prevailing in iron and coal matters, cou pled with an increasing demand for farm lands for settlement by Western people, is bringing about unusually healthy bus iness conditions throughout this entire section. With the continuation of high prices for cotton, the enormous grain crop which has been produced and these active conditions in industrial interests, the South bids fair to have the most prosperous season which it has enjoyed for many years. DECLARED FOR FREE COINAGE. Utah Democrats in Thir First Conven tion Heartliy Endorse the White Metal. Salt Lake, Utah, Sept. s.— The Dem ocratic Territorial Convention began at Ogden to day.

Rawlins, and Moses Thatcher for the United States Senate. Several county delegates have already so declared. Ogden, Sept. s.— The platform is brief and is devoted mostly to territorial affairs. On the money question it says: “We believe that the money of the con stitution is now the paramount issue be for the country and insist that both par ties shall plainly state their respective positions upon the question in order that the voters may intelligently express their preference. “We hereby declare ourselves in favor of immediate restoration of the free and unlimited coinage of silver and gold at the present legal ratio of 16 to 1, as such coinage existed prior to 1873, without waiting for the action or consent of any other nation, gold and silver coin to be a full legal teuder for all debts, public and private.” THE BIG YACHT RACE. Prospects for the Largest Crowd that Ever Gathered on the Water. New York, Sept. s.— The most inter esting topic of conversation among yachtsmen to-day, in fact the one that absorbed about all their attention, con cerned the measurements of the De fender and Valkyrie LI. There have been several estimates made on “guess” figure s, but they grant to the Defender a time allowance of anywhere from one minute to two. Indications point to the largest at tendance at a yacht race that the world ever saw. Every idle steamboat and tug about the harbor will be brought into requisition Saturday, and dozens of regular liners will be taken off their usual routes to carry people to see the great marine picture. Parties from Philadelphia, Boston, New Haven, New Bedford and other places will come on chartered boats. The Vizier Expels Turkish Boodlers, Constantinople, Sept. s.—The Grand Vizier has dismissed a number of officials of Moosh who have been found guilty of extorting taxes and treating Armenians with ruthless severity.

GEORGE WORRIES STftTEWENT. Describing the “Drowning” Incident, He says He Does not Believe it Pos sible that Fraker Could have Gotten Out Alive-« But Horrie is in the County Jail at Springer, Charged With Burglary—Fiaker’s Orphan Cousins are Left in Calilornia. Liberty, Mo., Sept. 5. — Astounding developments, it is rumored here, may be developed in the Dr. Fraker insur ance ease before another twenty-four hours. An official of one of the de frauded insurance companies, who is here working on the case, it is said on good authority, makes the statement that the much talked of prisoner is not the doctor. The name of the doubting official is not made public Judge J. H. San dusky, attorney for Judge J. B. Lincoln, executor of the Fraker estate, stated to day that they had not admitted yet that the prisoner is Fraker. All Judge Sandusky will say, however, is that it may and may not be Fraker. Richmond, Mo., Sept. 5.--Dr. Fraker, who is in jail here on the charge of at tempting to defraud insurance com panies, was recognized to-day by a score of people. The recognition was mutual, Dr. Fraker calling several by name and conversing with them. Raton, N. M , Sept. s.— George Hor rie, one of the principal witnesses in es tablishing the death of Dr. Fraker by drowning, and who is accused by the doctor with being his betrayer, is in the county jail at Springer, charged with burglary. He makes the following state ment: “On July 10, Dr. Fraker, James Trip lett, Alexander Manendez, a man named McMurray, the driver and myself went on a fishing trip. We did not reach the river near Oaraden until 7 o’clock that night. I saw Fraker drop into the river. It was about 9 o’clock in the evening. He sank out of sight, rose to the surface once and then disappeared. Ido not believe it possible for the man to have gotten out alive. Not one of us have ever seen the doctor since that night, and I will not believe that he is living until I see him face to face. Our party remained in the neighborhood that night and next day making every effort to find the body but without success.” Mrs. Ash, who is also in jail as an ac complice of Horrie, in the burglaries, states that Horrie several times received remittances from Attorney Lincoln, of Liberty, Mo.; that Horrie made several trips to Missouri the past two years and at one time met Lincoln at LaJunta, 001. Manitou, Col., Sept. s.—Judge James B. Lincoln, of Liberty, Mo , executor of the will of the insurance swindler Fra ker, has stopped in the city enroute to California and Washington, to take back to Missouri Fraker's four young orphan cousins, the principal beneficiaries of the will. He will not pursue the mission now, in consequence of the news of Fra ker’s capture. Judge Lincoln showed some little irritation that the insurance companies had thought it worth while to make attempts to enjoin him from pay ing over the money, as he expressed him self anxious to make full restitution, and says that there has been but a compara tively small amount of money paid to the beneficiaries. TRADES UNION CONGRESS. Samuel Gompers and P- J. Maguire Represent the United States. Cardiff, Bept. s.—Messrs. Samuel Gompers and P. J. Maguire, who repre sent the United States in the congress were given a hearty reception at this afternoon's session. President Jenkins in welcoming the American delegates said that although geographically divid ed, the workers of America, Great Bri tain and Ireland were united on all the important questions pertaining to the elevation of their class. Mr. Gompers, in replying to the ad dress of President Jenkins, spoke of the solidarity of feeling and sympathy that existed among the trades unions of the countries represented in this congress who, he said, were of one blood and had j a common heritage. He looked forward to the day when all workers speaking the English language would unite with the workers of all countries who are atrug gling onward for the attainment of that end for which the whole past has been a perpetual endeavor, with an intensity of purpose that would ensuro the aceora plishraent of great results. Mr. Gom pers said that he believed that the Bi it lsh Trades Union Congress and the American Federation of Labor would compare favorably with the British Par liament or with tbo American Congress. The Waller Court-Martial Record. Washington, D. 0., Sept. 5.- The State Department has been advised that the record in the Waller court martial, for which the French authorities found it necessary to send to Madagascar, is ex pected to reach Aden, on the Red Sea, about the 12th inst. After its arrival there some time will be required for its trans mission to Paris and still more before it can reach Wasnington, if it is decided to have it examined here, so it is expected to be at least a month be fore the department can be full posses sion of ail the facts iu tb„ case. In all probability, no further stop will be taken by the department iu this mat ter until this examination shall be made. NEBRASKA DEMOCRATS THE “SOUND MONEY” FACTION HOLDS ITS CONVENTION AT LINCOLN. OF COURSE ALL WAS “HARMONY” Cleveland and Carlisle Endorsed and this Single-Standard Convention De clared for a Single-Standard Finan cial Policy—Carlisle’s Name Loudly Applauded, though it was Appended to a Letter Saying that He was too Busy to Say Anythiug. Lincoln, Neb., Sept. 5. —When State Chairman Martin, of Omaha, called the second Nebraska Democratic State Con vention to order to day, 631 enthusiastic delegates greeted him with applause, en couraged by au enthusiastic crowd of vis ito s. It was considered quite signifi cant in the light of recent develop ments that 631 out of a total representa tion of 634 delegates should be present when the convention was convened, and it was early evident that while the party in the State is divided on financial lines, the so called hard-money element lose little in numbers or dignity as compared to the element of the party which held its convention last month under the auspices of the free silver leaders of the State at Omaha. The chair first announced that he had re ceived a telegram from Secretary of the Treasury Carlisle which he would read. The message wa.> a brief one, to the effect that it had been impossible for him to accept the cordial invitation to meet with the convention and that owing to the immense stress of business it was equally impossible for him to dictate an extended letter. The message, however, created a great deal of inter est and the signature of John G. Car lisle evoked another outburst. If there had previously been any question as to the feelings of the average delegate to the convention on financial matters, it was very quickly removed by the side remarks against free silver by different Democrats in making points of order or while occupying the floor temporarily, disposing of routine business. The chairman of the committee on ere dentiafc reported that there were no contests, and that every county in the State was represented. A temporary organization was made permanent. The report of the resolu tions committee was greeted with re peated applause. There was no minor ity reDort. The resolutions are: “The Democracy of Nebraska, in con vention assembled, congratulate the country upon the sure signs of returning prosperity. In spite of the evil predic tions alike of protectionists and silver in flationists, the country is steadily and surely gaining ground, thus justifying the wisdom of the reversal of the Repub lican policies of protective tariff, taxes and coinage of a redundant quan tity of token dollars. The fact that the wheels of industry so long silenced in consequence of these policies by a long and depressing panic, have resumed their wonted motion and that more than 300,000 laboreas are receiving the large increase in wages of twelve per cent proves this assertion. “We send hearty greetings and con gratulations to Grover Cleveland and his cabinet, not only for their wise and prudent course, which has aided so much in bringing about the better financial condition, but also for their firm and fearless adherence throughout the de pression to sound policies of economy, for their unswerving fidelity in uphold ing and protecting the honor and integ rity of the nation against organized mob violence. “We endo;se| the national Democratic pTatform of 1892 and the interpretation placed thereon by the President, and we declare ourselves unequivocally and un reservedly for that metallic money as the standard mintage, the bullion and mint value of which are approximately the same, the purchasing power of which, regardless ofgovernment mintage, is the least fluctuating in all the markets of the world. “We insist upon this policy as especially necessary for the protection of the farm ers, laborers and property owning debt ors, the most defenseless victims of un stable money and fluctuating currency. ] Free coinage of silver at 16 to 1 means a poorer money and less of it; it means less wages for the laboring man and less actual money for the business man; it means bankruptcy for all save the mine , owner.” r lhe following nominations were made: ( Supreme Judge, T. G. Mahoney; Re- , gents State University, W. H. Ashby . and John H. Ames. * j On this point Hon. W. J. Bryan, of . Nebraska, addressed the convention. i The convention instructed almost uuani- j mously to support J. L. Rawlins and Moses Thatcher for the United States Senate. B. H. Roberts, of Davis county, was the only name presented for mem ber of Congress. \ For the t hree members of the Supreme I Court the names of J. G. Sutherland, 1 S. R. Thunnau, Ogden Hiles, Thomas F. ] Maloney and R. W. Young were placed < in nomination. Thurman, Maloney and < Young were nominated on the first bal- . lot. 1 The convention then took a recess. Mission Biots at Voiincy, China. Lyons, Sept. s.—The newspaper Mis- t sions Catholiquea publishes a statement t to-day that at the beginning of July the I mission ami orphanage at Vouney, China, i were attacked by natives and burned. In t the riot several Christians were killed. 1 TO If LOW UP ROTHSCHILDS, A Parisian Anarchist Makes a Second Attempt on the Banker's Life. Paris, Sept. 5. —De Rothschild’s bank ing house in this city was the scene to day of another nihilistic attempt. At 3:20 o’clock a man entered the bank from the Rue Lofitte. In the vestibule a detective who was on guard, saw the stranger trying to light the fuse of a bomb which he carried, with a cigarette. The ashes of the cigarette prevented the ready ignition of the fuse, and the man, seeing that he was observed, threw the bomb upon the carpeted floor. The weapon did not explode and the man was arrested. At the police office the man openly professed anarchistic theories, declaring that he intended the bomb as an anar chist demonstration. The recent explo sion at De Rothschild’s bank, and which cost Rothschilds’ confidential clerk an eye, the man said was only a hoax, to day’s attempt being expected to have a salutary effect. The man told them he made the bomb himself. He expressed regret that he had not taken enough pre cautions to insure an explosion. The Czar Guarded irom Nihilists. Berlin, Sept. s.— The Lokal Anzei ger’s correspondent at St. Petersburg confirms the statement recently publish ed that in consequence of the ac tivity of the Nihilists, it has beeu found necessary to guard the Czar’s every step as completely as the move ments of his father, Alexander 111, were guarded by the police at the most peril ous time of his reign. The Czarina, whose accouchment is expected in Octo ber, is suffering from extreme nervous ness in consequence of the danger threat ening the Czar. “RALEIGH” IN THE SQUADRON. Drills Being Held on Board the Trim White Cruiser at Fisher’s Island. Boston, Mass., Sept. s. —The cruisers New York, Minneapolis and Raleigh the “White Squadron,” that have been in the harbor the past five days, weighed anchor at 11 o’clock this forenoon and started for Fisher’s Island, where drills will be held. The cruisers will be joined at Fisher’s Island by another section of four vessels, completing a squadron. The fleet under command of Admiral Bunce will have heavy gun practice and naval brigade drill on shore. Thousands have visited the cruisers while anchored iu the harbor here and the officers and men of the warships have enjoyed their stay here greatly. “GIL” CURRY FINED S3OO. The Driver ol Joe Patcheu Suffers for Alleged Crooked Work. Philadelphia, Pa., Sept. s,—“Gil” Curry, who drove Joe Patchen in yester day’s match race with John R. Gentry, at Belmont Park, has been fined SSOO by the judges for alleged crooked work in the race. There is considerable doubt as to whether the fine can be collected. Curry claims that the contract with the Belmont Driving Club simply called for a speed exhibition on the part of the two horses. Instead of a $4,000 purse Mc- Henry and Curry were to bo given a cer tain per centage of the gate receipts and the amount they did receive, it is said, was $450 each. To night Curry, and McHenry, who drove Gentry, left for the West. They W ant M. P.’s Paid Salaries. Cardiff, Sept. s.— At the session of the Trades Union Congress to-day, the parliamentary committee was instructed to urge upon Parliament the passage of a bill declaring for the principle of pay ment of salaries to members of the House of Commons. Mr. Saxton, a delegate from Liverpool, in seconding a motion for the adoption of a resolution in favor of the prohibition of the landing ot pau per aliens, said that he wished to include within the scope of the resolution royal paupers who arrived without visible means of support, but who soon found them. These, Mr. Saxton said, were the men who controlled the empire while the poor British tax payers had no rights at all. Boiler Explodes in Chicago Postoffice. Chicago, 111, Sept. s.—One of the boilers which run the big dynamos in the government building, exploded late last night, and for 15 minutes the post office building was in total darkness while the employes were huddled to gether in the corridors, scarcely daring to breath for fear the old structure was going to crumble aud fall on them. The explosion was heard lor several blocks and caused much excitement. There is but one exit that can be used at night and toward this all of the employes groped their way. No one was seriously injured. Cotton Statistics lor the Week.

BOGUS DRAFT SWINDLE PHILADELPHIA’S POLICE UN EARTH A GIGANTIC SCHEME TO DEFRAUD BANKS. ROBERT RILSON, THE PROJECTOR He Had Printed Bogus Checks on Eleven Different Ranks In Louisville, Boston, Milwaukee, Indianapolis, Chicago, and on Five liauks in New York— fiilsou Says He Represents a Punch Manufacturing Firm and Had the Checks Printed for the House. Philadelphia, Pa , Sept. s.— By the arrest of Kobt. Rilson, of this city, to day the police think they have unearth ed a gigantic system of swindling by bogus drafts printed in the names of eleven different national bauks and drawn to the correspondents of those banks in Louisville, Boston, Milwaukee, Indianapolis, Chicago, and on five banks in New York city. Last week Kilson called at the printing house of William son & Beecher, and representing himself as the agent of a cancelling punch for the use of banking houses, negotiated for the printing of several thousand National checks, which, he said, he meant to use in advertising his patent punch. He left an order for the printing and furnished the firm with a stereotyped sac simile of a cashier’s draft in which the name of the bank was mortised, and it is believed changed. In addition to the printing of the cheeks in black from the cut furnished, he ordered that the name of the banks, that were correspondents of the bank upon which the checks purported to be should bq printed in red ink. The checks as then produced would be an imitation of the originals used by the banks, the list of which he provided the printers. Rilson’s subsequent actions, his appar ent nervousness, and his haste to have the work finished, aroused the firm’s suspicions, and they notified Captain of Detectives Miller of the case. This offi cial scented an attempt at wholesale passing of fraudulent checks and at once detailed Detectives Tate and Whit comb, who went to the printers and awaited the arrival of Rilson for the checks, They did not have long to wait before their man arrived, and he was taken into custody. He insisted that he represented punch manufacturing firm. Questioning led him to admit that he had not been selling cancelling punches for over a year. He stated also that he had sold a punch to the Third National Bank, but as the cashier of the bank was in Capt. Miller’s room at the time the statement was made it was promptly branded as a falsehood. The police are of the opinion that Riison and others entered upon a scheme of wholesale forgery. The pris oner’s familiarity with the banking bus iness iu this city is apparent from tho fact that he selected the proper foreign correspondents for the banks in this city whose names were on the face of checks Rilson was held in bail to answer a charge of conspiracy with unknown per sons by means of bugus checks. THE GOLD RESERVE BROKEN. The Treasury Reports the Gold ou Hand as Less Than $100,000,000. New York, Sept. 5. —The treasury’s gold reserve as reported from Washing ton to-day, at $99,127,567, shows the first break below the $100,000,000 since June 25. Its lowest point was $4t,340,- 181 on February 13. It first exceeded the limit after the syndicate contract was made on June 2, when it touched SIOO,- 830,357. The reserve reached its high est point, $107,571,230, this year on July 10. Os course, the daily treasury state ment reflects conditions which prevailed two days ago, so actually the reserve owing to the week’s deposit of syndicate gold is now above the $100,000,000 limit, to-day’s figures really applying to tho statement of the treasury on Tuesday.
