Circumstances Which indicate That a
Crisis Is at Hand.
TAYLOR IS NONGOMMITTAL.
Dissident Conservatives Dema’nd the Be-
call of Weyler as the Price of Co-
operation VVith the Government.
Spain Needs Money.
London, Sept. 22.—Mr. Hannis Taylor,
the former United States minister to
Spain, arrived here andfircalled at the
United States embassy today. In an
interview Mr. Taylor said:
“The grave negotiations now pending
between the United States and Spain
as to the war in Cuba are now entirely
in the hands of General Woodford, who
has had fruitful experience both in
peace and war, and will be equal to the
occasion, whatever it may be.”
Mr. Taylor was questioned in regard
to the accuracy of the statements con-
tained in the dispatch from San Sebas-
tian to Le Temps of Paris purporting
to give the substance of the interview
which took place on Sunday last be-
tween General Stewart L. ‘Woodford,
the United States minister to Spain,
and thewDuke of Tetuan, the Spanish
minister for foreign affairs, in which
General Woodford is said to have in-
sisted courteously but firmly upon the
necessity of terminating the war in
Cuba and to have declared that if it
is not terminated by the end of October,
the United States will feel justified in
taking measures to secureathe inde-
pendence of Cuba. In reply the former
minister said:
“My lips are sealed until after my
arrival at Washington.”
But while Mr. Taylor refused to dis-
cussthis matter, his manner tended to
confirm the story told by the cor-re-
spondent of the Paris Temps.
Regarding the general feeling
Spain, Mr. Taylor remarked:
”I,,m.ust in justice say that I have
never received any personal discourtesy
from any one, but for the past year my
residence was guarded by soldiers.” ,
Mr. Taylor will pay a visit to Pro-
fessor Freeman at Oxford, will com-
plete his book and sail for home on
Oct. 2.
Weyler's' Recall Demanded.
Madrid, Sept. 22.—Senor Silvela, the
leader of the dissident Conservatives,
declares that the dissidents will not co-
operate with the government unless
Captain General Weyler is recalled from
Cuba. The situation in Spain is of the
gravest character, he says, and the mod-
ification of the cabinet by the retirement
of the Duke of Tetuan and other min-
isters would not create a government
that would be capable of coping with
the difficulties of the position. Senor
Silvela further says that he and his
followers, together with the Liberals,
will join in supporting the rejection of
the new demands made by the United
States, if such have been made.

Beverter’s Excommunication.
Madrid, Sept. 22.—El Imparcial says
that the belief is growing that the coun-
cil of the congregation, of which the
pope is president. considers Senor Re-
verter, minister of finance, who was re-
cently excommunicated by a decree is-
sued by the bishop of Palma, a proper
subject for excommunication. The ac-
tion of the bishop of Palma was taken
upon the ground that Senor Reverter
had converted church lands to the use
of the government.
One Friend For America.
Brussels, Sept. 22.—~L’Independence
Beige, in an article commenting upon
the reported representations made by
General Woodford, United States minis-
ter to Spain, recognizes the right of the

insist that Spain shall hasten the paci-
fication of the island of Cuba and adds,
”They cannot consent that the struggle
shall be prolonged indefinitely through
the blind infatuation of Spanish states-
men.”
Spain Tries For a New Loan.
London, Sept. 22.—The Spanish gov--
ernment is attempting to negotiate a

moms QUEER CONDUCT.
[t Frightened Officials and Hereafter a
Safety Razor \Vill Shave Him.
Long Island City, N. Y., Sept. 22.—A
safety razor will be employed to shave
Martin Thorn hereafter.
The authorities at the Queens County
jail believe that Thorn contemplated
suicide as a last resort while a trusty
keeper was shaving 'him with a plain
Iazor. This belief arose from a.
strange, creepy gesture Thorn made.
Patrick Hogan shaves Thorn. Today
he was shaving Thorn, who was very
nervous. He had so much difficulty in
keeping still that he narrowly escape-d
being cut several times.
Hogan was wiping the razor when
Thorn, after a second's deep thought,
sprang to his feet. He drew his finger
around his throat from ear to ear and
made a strange sound—half whistle,
half croak—the noise of a dying man
with throat cut from ear to ear. His
eyes said plainly:
“That’s the way to get out of this
trouble.”
The authorities feared that Thorn
might snatch the razor from Hogan and
attempt to kill himself.
“ SECTION 22:"
The Attorney 'General Holds That the
Discriminating Clause Does
Not Discriminate.
Washington, Sept. 22.—Attorney Gen-
eral McKenna today announced his
opinion in the matter of section 22 of
the new tariff law. He holds in effect
that goods coming directly into the
United States from foreign countries
through Canadian ports are not subject
to the discriminating» duty of 10 per
cent. He also holds that foreign goods
shipped from countries other than Brit-
ish possessions in British vessels are
not subject to the discriminating duty.
Two questions were asked the attor-
ney general, the first of which was, in
effect, whether the discriminating duty
of 10 per cent provided for in section 22
should be assessed against an invoice
of tea from China which had arrived
at Vancouver in British vessels and was
thence shipped through Canada to Chi-
cago. The second question was wheth-
er the discriminating duty should be
assessed against a cargo of manganese
ore from Chile which recently arrived
in a British ship at Philadelphia. Both
these questions the attorney general
answers in the negative.

MISS HARMON ACCUSED
She Is the Sister of Cleveland’s Last
Attorney General.
CHARGE IS GRAND LARCEN Y.
In Opal and Diamond Ring the Cause
of the Trouble—Persons Who Know
Say Surgical Operations Have Un-
balanced the Woman's Mind.
New York, Sept. 22.—It was admitted
today that the woman who was held
in the Jefferson Market police court
yesterday for the alleged theft of an
apal and diamond ring from Oliver M.
Farrand, a jeweler at 3 Maiden lane, is
Miss Florence 'B. Harmon. whose
brother, Judson Harmon of Cincinnati,
was attorney general in President
Cleveland’s cabinet.
That was not the name she gave at
the police court. There she said she
was Miss Fannie Harrison of 143 West
Sixty-ninth street, but no 'one of that
name lives there.
The circumstances leading up to her
arrest were as follows: The woman
visited Mr. Farrand’s store on Friday
last and asked to see some opal and
diamond rings. When a trayful was
placed before her she picked it up and
walked to the door in .order, as she said,
to get a better ‘light on the rings. Aft-
er examining them she handed the
tray back to Mr. Farrand, remarking
as she did that none of the rings pleas-
ed her.
On examining the tray Mr. Farrand
noticed that one of the rings was miss-
ing and sent a salesman out to follow
the woman, who boarded a Broadway
car and rode to Twenty—fifth street.
The salesman followed her and saw her
enter 38 West Twenty—fifth street.
How She Was Trapped.
The police were. notified of the theft,
and Detective Sergeants Vallely and
Cain were put on the case. The follow-
ing morning they saw the woman leave
the house and visit a number of jewelry
stores, among others that of Hamrick
& 00., near Eighteenth street. Here
she gave her name as Miss Florence B.
Harmon and her residence as 38 West
Twenty—fifth street. She desired; to have
the opal in a ring which she carried
changed. Mr. Hamrick advised her not
to have the stone taken out, and she
left the store.
Later, acting under the orders of the
police, Mr. Hamrick wrote to MisS Har-
mon asking her to call at his store, as
he had received some Opals which might
please her. The woman called, produced
the opal diamond ring, which one of Mr.
Farrand‘s salesmen identified as the
one stolen from his establishment.
Thereupon she was arrested.
Miss Harmon, according to the city
directory, is interested in the publica-
tion of a magazine at 3 Union square.
Her brother. Eugene M. Harmon, owns
$2,500 stock of the magazine.
Miss Harmon passed a quiet night at
the Jefferson 'Market prison. In re—
sponse to a letter which She had sent
to her boarding mistress, Mrs. Frances
N. Bundy, the latter called at the prison
today. When she came out from seeing
the prisoner, she said she was indeed
Miss Harmon. She believed Miss Har-
mon had taken the ring while mentally
unbalanced.
Operations Unbalanced Her Mind.
She said that the prisoner had under-
gone several operations during the past
year, which had unbalanced her mind.
She did not think the Woman responsi-
ble for what she did.
Later sin the forenoon John S. Sey-
mour of the firm of Harmon & Sey—
mour, lawyers._ of 29 Pine street, ap-
peared as the bondsman at Jefferson
Market police court to secure Miss
taken in the judge’s private room and
none of the reporters was allowed to
see the papers in the case.
The bond was furnished by a woman,
who said she was an old friend of Miss
Harmon, but refused to tell her own
name to the newspaper men. She stated
that she owned property at 1144 Park
avenue. Upon this statement the mag-
istrate issued the bonds.
Mr. Seymour admitted that his client
was a sister of former Attorney General
Harmon under Cleveland’s administra-
tion. .
As the result of the four operations
which had been performed upon her, he
said, Miss Harmon’s mind had been af-
fected and at times she was not re-
sponsible for her acts. .
Herr Andree’s Balloon Voyage.
London, Sept. 22.—A dispatch from
St. Petersburg says: "The reports that
Professor Andree‘s balloon has been
sighted in the interior of Siberia are
not believed here. Captain Kovanko,
the leading aeronautic expert in Bus-
sia, entirely discredits them; He as-
serts that if Andree ever returns it will
certainly not be in midair, as the bal-
loon could not have kept up beyond 12
days.

AGrowing Belief That the Demented Ar:
royo Was \Killed by Officers.
Mexico City, Sept. 22.—Public interest.
in the lynching of Arroyo continues to
Increase, stimulated by rumors and dis-
:iosures in the press. It is strongly as-
serted that Arroyo was not killed by a
mob, but by some member or members
of the police force. The government is
scting with firmness and energy in
pushing the investigation, and Inspector
Villa Vincencio of the Second district,
who was arrested on suspicion of being
Implicatedin the plot, is now in Belem
prison in solitary confinement. All the
supposed lynchers, mostly street ped-'
dlers, loafers, etc., have been released,
as there is no longer the slightest
ground for holding them.
Imparcial says that the arrest of offi-
cials presumed to be responsible for the
crime, which, it declares, was simply
murder, strengthens that newspaper
and the public in the belief that the
police officials now in the hands of jus-
tice are themselves responsible for the
crime. Gendarme Milanes, who was
guarding Arroyo on the night of the
crime, is reported to have told a mem-
ber of his family on returning home
that among the mob who entered the
municipal building were men whom he
recognized. He is in custody awaiting
the legal statement.
There is no truth in the report that
the minister or the governor of the fed-
WEEKLY NORWL’AK’ - G‘A'iznér'ruf
eral district has resigned. These men .
are above suspicion and have been un-
remitting‘in their endeavor to. punish
the true authors of the murder. The
body of Arroyo has been buried, after
being delivered to his family.
TESTY FRANCIS JOSEPH.
Severe Criticism by the Austrian Emperor
of a General.
Budapest, Sept. 22.—Among the inci—
dents m connection with the arrival
here yesterday of Emperor William of
Germany are the following:
On his way to the railroad station to
meet the German emperor Emperor
Francis Joseph passed a Bosnian divi-
sion, commanded by a general. The em-
peror rose in his carriage and cried in a.
loud voice:
“Is that how you drill your men, gen-
eral? Look at them! They are a dis-
grace!”
i
To the Bosnian colonel the emperor
said:
“Teach your soldiers the rules, colo-
nel, before you let them march out of
barracks!”
At three points along the route Em—~
peror Francis Joseph stopped his car-
riage and angrily remarked upon the
conduct. of the public, who persisted in
trespassing within the lines of troops.
When the procession, headed by the
two emperors, was returning from the
failroad station, the horse of the cen-
sured general became restive, and the
general, sheathing his sword, ordered
the Bosnians to open their line, and be
fore the imperial party arrived he rode
out of sight, evidently fearing- the em-
peror would again censure him.

lo Additional Cases. Reported—A Phy-
sician Scores the Board of Health.
Precautions Adopted Elsewhere.
Prospect of Belief.
New Orleans, Sept. 22.—Notwithstand-
ing the appearance of 18 new cases yes-
terday, it is believed that the yellow
fever situation here is improved today
by the materially lower temperature,
the thermometer at 6 being 62. Incu-
nation of yellow fever germs requires a
sustained temperature of 70 degrees F.,
and if the present cool weather con-
:inues conditions promise to grow stead-
ily better. Of the cases reported yester-
day at least nine were properly to be
accredited to Friday, Saturday and
Sunday, and only one of these cases
was of anything but a mild type, the
exception being an unacclimated stran-
ger. There have been no new cases re-
ported today.
Dr. Touat‘i‘e, an eminent and experi-
enced yellow fever physician and a
member of the board of experts, says
in an interview that the records since
1853 show that yellow fever has never
been declared epidemic in any year after
its appearance here inside of two or
three months. That was the case in
[853, 1858, 1867 and 1878. The history of
the epidemics of the last half century
prove that all epidemics waned with
the first cold of October, disappearing
almost, entirely in November. If a
month and a half more is added to the
period of incubation the end of October
is reached. To have an epidemic at
that late date is out of the question.
Dr. Touatre recalls a number of in—
stances where fever broke out in Au-
gust, September and October, only to be
quickly stamped out by the frost before
. it had assumed the proportions of an
epidemic.
Dr. Holt Is Angry.
The principal topic of interest today is
the letter of Dr. Holt, replying to the
criticism that he had not promptly re—
ported his nine cases to the board of
health and his fierce criticism'of the ac-
tion of “the board of health in failing to
quarantine Ocean Springs early enough
to have prevented the arrival here of'a
large number of people with their bag-
gage from the infected points on the
coast, causing the introduction of the
fever in this city. The next session of
the board of health, when Dr. Holt will
be arraigned, together with two other
physicians, who are alleged to have vio-
lated’the city and board of health laws,
promises to be among the most spicy
, sessions ever held by that body. The

Chicago Not Alarmed.
Chicago, Sept. 22. — The report that
two cases of yellow fever have been dis-
covered at Cairo‘, 1115., has not alarmed
the Chicago health officers. Health
Commissioner Reynolds doubts that the
cases are yellow fever and believes they
are malaria or breakbone feven. In dis-
cussing the situation Dr. Reynolds said
today: ”There is absolutely no cause for
alarm in Chicago, and we should wel-
come refugees from the infected dis-
trict. Even if the disease should be im-
ported into Chicago it could not spread.
Our climate would act as a barrier.
against the contagion, and it would dis-
appear as quickly as it came. Two phy-
; sicians who saw the patients at Cairo
‘ pronounce the disease malaria. Anoth-
er physician diagnosed -the disease as
yellow fever. I am inclined to believe
the disease is not genuine yellow fever.”
Geperai Superintendent Sullivan of
the Illinois Central railroad said the
prevalence of yellow fever in the south
necessitated no change in through serv-
ice except so far as compliance with
quarantine and Illinois board of health
requirements. For the protection of the
state Dr. J. A. Eagan, the board's ex-
ecutive officer, has issued orders that
no passengers or railroad employees
from the .infected states shall be per-
mitted to leave trains at any point in
Illinois south of the line made by the
Baltimore and Ohio Southwestern rail-
road from Vincennes, Ind., to East St.
Louis. North of the barrier passengers
with clean bills of health signed by the
proper authorities may be admitted.
Freight Taken Subject to Delay.
Kansas City, Sept. 22.—Kansas City
railroads having outlets at gulf ports
are notifying shippers that freight for
gulf points will be accepted subject to
delay only. This is due to the yellow
fever quarantine which is now being
rigidly enforced, freight as well as pas-
senger trains being subject to the rule.
There is every indication that thp big
grain crop of the southwest, which had
begun to move in large quantities to
the gulf ports, will be driven back to
the Atlantic ports, from which it had
been largely diverted by the activity
of the gulf lines.
Health Certificates For Conductors.
New York, Sept. 22.-In compliance
with the request of the Pennsylvania
Railroad company, Health Inspector
Benjamin of Jersey City today fur-
nished health certificates to conductors
of trains that are to pass through the
state of Alabama. The railroad is re-
quired by Alabama to have all con-
ductors examined and certified before
they leave the north in order to pass
through that state. The theory of the
Alabama authorities is that conductors
may catch the yellow fever in Missis-
sippi and Louisiana and bring it into
Alabama on their return trips.
When the trains cross the boundary
line from Mississippi into Alabama, men
with shotguns are stationed on the
platform of every passenger coach“ and
Pullman car. Nobody is allowed to
leave the cars or step off the platform
without the consent of the health
authorities at the station. ..
Precautions at Spanish Ports.
Madrid, Sept. 22.—The queen regent
