Governor Russell on yesterday took
charge of the Railroad Commissioners to
the extent that he writes Malor J. W.

(Democrat) and to Commissioner 8. U.
Wilson (Populist) calling them to show
cause in writing, before September 1,
why they should not be removed from
office. The letter states that he (Russell)
has the power to remove from office any
Railroad Commissioner who shall be the
holder of "any stock or bond of any rail
road company, or be the agent or em
ployee of any such company, or in case
any one of them shall be disqualified to
act." The Governor then gives out the
same old story of the joint ownership of
Col. A.B. Andrews and Major Wilson of
Round Knob Hotel, and of Mr. S. Otho
Wilson as manager.
Senator" Butler says of this matter
that the Governor has done exactly
right That these two commissioners
use free passes and ask for passes for
their families. lie ends 'his comments
by Euying that his editorial is one of the
most painful duties he ever had to per
form. Both Maj. Wilson and Mr. Otho
Wilson are out "of the city so that

Death. - . '
Montevideo, August 25. During a
National fete which was held here to
day, President J. Idiarte Borda was shot
and killed by an assassin. :
The assassination of the President oc
curred aa he was leaving the Cathedral,
where the Te Deum had been sung.
President Borda died almost Immediate
ly after he was shot. The assassin.
a youth named Arredonda was ar
rested. 1
Senor Cuestos, President of the Senate,
has assumed the Presidency of tte Re
public, ad interim.' . .
Senor Idiarte Borda was elected Pres
ident of Uruguay, for the term extend
ing from March, 1894, to 18B8. The fete
at which he was assassinated was being
held in celebration of the independence!
of Uruguay, which was achieved on Au
gust 25, 1825.
At the time of Senor Borda's election
he belonged to the official party, and
was elected by a very narrow majority.
The people, it was said, were sadly dis
appointed at the result, but order and
quiet was maintained. The leading pa
pers of Uruguay deplored the election of
Senor Borda and declared that it marked
a reaction in the country's progress.
The murdered President was probably
50 years of age; he was married and had
a family, and also had a brother who is
an officer in the Uruguay army.
He was a candidate of several parties,
but so far as known hu was not identi
fied with any party of the people, and
his election was said to be distasteful to
the more advanced element of the peo
ple.
'It would not be surprising," said one
diplomat speaking of the affair tonight,
If the murderer belonged to the So
cialists or Anarchists. There are a num
ber of societies of Socialists in Uruguay.
Many of these classes are sent out of
their native countries and come to Uru
guay, where they continue the propa
ganda of their ideas."

OVR COAST DBFENSB.
The Artillery Will Have la ke Cenald
erabljr Increased.
Washington, D. 0., August 25. The
appointment of the Special Artillery
Board by the War Department Is a step
of greater importance than has been ap
preciated, for it means that the extensive
system of coast defences is now ap
proaching a stage when the artillery will
have to be very considerably increased in
order to provide proper garrisons for the
preservation and employment of the sea
coast armament and material.
The Board's work will be to determine
just how many truops will be required at
the new fortifications, the extent of the
barrack accommodations, what barracks
are now available at some of the posts,
but not occupied ; the water transporta
tion needed in maintaining proper com
munication between the detached bat
teries, and the quantity of land required
for the erection of entirely new garri
sons. Armenlnaa Tortured.
Pabis, Aug. 25. The Petite Reimb-
lique today publishes a dispatch from
Constantinople which ssys: "The pris
ons are crowded with Armenians and
Turkish liberals who have been arrested
on suspicion. On Sunday Inst eighty of
these prisoners were placed in the sub
terranean dungeons of Calatu.
'The Armenian who exploded a bomb
in the Turkish government offices has
been tortured aDd whipped until he was
covered with blood and the soles of his
feet have been burned. Yet he refused
to confess.
POWERS STILL DIFFER.

aaa Greece.
Constantinople, August 25 The ques
tion of the peace settlement between
Greece and Turkey has now passed out
of the hands of the ambassadors of the
powers and has become the subject of
negotiations direct between the European
cabinets. Germany objects to the Marquis
of Salisbury's proposal that Grecece
should be asked to state precisely what
means she possesses for paying the in
demnity and insists upon the signature
of the peace preliminaries is already
framed. Austria partly shares Germany's
Views and Italy will adhere to Germany's
policy if the powers agree upon it.
Russia and France are inclined to support
the Marquis of Salisbury.
Tewfik Pasha, the Turk lull minister
for foreign affairs, called at the foreign
embassies yesterday in order to urge the
necessity of hastening the settlement of
the conditions of peace.
