DARING ROBBERY.

 

Brutal Assault on a. New - England
Merchant.

BROCKTON, Mass, Oct. 12.—-—One of the
most daring highway robberies ever known
in this section was committed Tuesday
light on the road to. \Vhitman, near the
\Vhitman and Brocktou line.

James Hayes, awell-known resident of
this city, formerly in the liquor business,
and George W. Simmons, who resides in
Whitman road, were returning from arido
to Whitman, when four men suddenly
stepped from the woods, one catching the
horse by the bridle, another striking both
men in the wagon with a heavy branch of
a tree.

Hayes was dragged from the carriage,
brutally assaulted and robbed by the ruf-
finns, then placed in the carriage and his
companion told to drive home.

Hayes is in a. terrible condition. His
face is crushed to a jelly, his body is badly
bruised, and he is in a precarious concil-
tion. He could not identify his assailants.
Simmons, his companion, stated that he
caught the reins as Hayes was dragged
out, and held the horse during the assault,
which took place in the middle of the
wood. It was so dark he could not see
either of the men, but heard the blows and
kicks.

Hayes was placed in the carriage by the
men, and Simmons was told to drive on
quick or they would use him in the same
way.

HONOR TO GIBBONS.

 

Preparing to Celebrate the Cardinal’s
Jubilee.

BALTIMORE, Oct. 12.—Arrangements
are rapidly approaching completion for the
celebration in this city on the 18th and 19th
inst of the jubilee service to mark the end-
ing by Cardinal Gibbons of 25 years in the
episcopate. The cardinal had determined
at first to have only the simplest kind of a.
religious ceremony to note the event, but
he was induced to yield to the wishes of
the priests of the province and to consent
to an observance befitting the occasion and
worthy the interest taken in it by the holy
father.

Archbishop Satolli, the apostolic dele-
gate, and the archbishop of New Zealaud,
Most Rev. Dr. Redmond, will be present.

lonsignor Nugent, of Liverpool, will
represent Cardinal Vaughn and the Catho-
lic Church in Great Britain. Mgr. Nugent
is now in New York.

Rev. Dr. Kooker, vice-president of the
American college in Rome, and the bearer
of a special letter and present from the
Holy Father to Cardinal Gibbons, will
oscupy a. prominent place. This gentle-
man is at the Catholic university in Wash-
i ngton. He will come to Baltimore on
Monday or Tuesday next.

Two Years for a Riotcr.

NEW YORK, Oct. 12.—Abraham Bloom,
alias Max Goldstein, one of the ringlead-
ers in the riot at Walhalla hall. last Aug-
ust, and who was found guilty in the court
of generel sessions, has been sentenced to
two years imprisonment at hard labor in
state prison. Recorder Smyth in passing
sentence said that Bloom’s conduct was
disgraceful and not to be tolerated in this
city. He also said: “This country gives
the right of free speech, but will crush
riotous proceedings. The sooner these
people understand this, the better.”

Astor’s Yacht in Collision.

NEW YORK, Oct. 12.~—John Jacob Ass
tor’s yacht Nourmahal, while on her way
down the North river about 9 a. m. en
route for the yacht race, was in collision
with a Pennsylvania railroad ferryboat ope
posite Hoboken. The Nourmahal’s bow-
sprit was carried away, and a. portion of
her joiner work was stove in. The ferry-
boat’s rail was carried away and her
joiner work injured. After the collision
the Nourmahal turned and proceeded up
the North river.

Mafia Again.

NEW ORLEANS, Oct. 12.——The Mafia has
again broken out in this city. Officer
'l‘ooie, who had his throat out several
weeks ago by an Italian named Perricano,
was yesterday dangerously assaulted by
unknown persons. It is believed that this
is the result of a Mafia plot, as Toole is an
important witness against Perricano, whose

’ trial has been set for hearing very soon in

the criminal court.

Reception to the Russian Fleet—blar-
slial .Mclllahon Still Critically Ill.
DeLesseps Said to Have Recovered
From His Recent Sickness. 7

Copyright, 1893, by the United Press.

PARIS, Oct. 12. —-The reception of the
Russian fleet at Toulou is but two days off
and the Russian feeling grows hourly in
intensity. The newspapers now give daily
long lists of Russian officials and dignita-
ries who have come to Paris to witness the
fetes. Russian decorations are seen every-
where in such variety and beauty as would
not be possible in any other continental
capital. Even while thus preoccupied,
the French editors have not missed a very
small chance to halt John Bull. They
have found in the attack of the Moors on
the Spaniards at Melilla only another evi—
dence of English perfidy. They have
roused French prejudice against the Briton
by declaring that English emissaries were
behind the outbreak and that England is
only waiting for an opportunity to inter-
fere between Spain and Morocco. There
is little doubt that both France and Eng-
land are anxious for a chance to present to
Sultan Muley-Hassan treaties similar to
the ones he recently refused to sign for
them. Neither the French nor the British
government would be unwilling probably
to use the sultan’s present trouble with
Spain to secure such an end. This rivalry
to obtain the benefits of the Melilla. affair
is one source of French jealously.

hIcMahon Still Low.

Marshal McMahon, whose illness has
caused his friends much alarm in the last
week, is resting well, but his condition is
still critical. There is no prospect of his
attending the banquet to the Russians.
His invitation was carried to him by the
secretary of the municipal council, who
went to Chateau La Forest so as to show
full honors to the veteran“ Marshal Can-
robert also has declined his invitation, as
he is weakened by age and many ailments.

De Lesseps “'ell Again.

Last evening it was reported that Count
Ferdinand de Lesseps had recovered fully
from his recent acute illness. He was
suffering merely from derangement of the
stomach. '

BLAZERS DISMISSED.

 

Severe Punishment Meted Out by
Princeton.

PRINCETON, N. J., Oct. 12.——The faculty
took final action at last night’s meeting in
the case of the sophomores convicted of
hazing. One of the sophomores was dis
missed with a recommendation of severe
punishment by the authorities outside of
the college, two others were dismissed, two
were suspended until March 1, one until
Thanksgiving day, and one until Nov. 1.
The punishment is regarded as extremely
severe. The faculty positively refuse to
give the names of the disciplined students
with reference to the degree of punishment.
It could not be learned last night whether
any of the three football men is the mem‘
ber dismissed, and thus barred from a. re-
turn to college.

Big Strike.

PITTSBURO, Pa., Oct. 12. -In compli-
ance with the order issued by President
Smith of the flint glass workers union to
the effect that all members of that organi-
zation should at once cease work in the
factories controlled by the United States
glass company, all of the mold makers
stopped work and went out on a strike.
This order of President Smith affects the
empioyes in 16 factories in which about
2,000 men are employed. .

Thanks from Brunswick.

QUARANTINE, S. 1., Oct. 12.——Hea1th
Officer Jenkins yesterday notified by tele-
graph the mayor of Brunswick, Ga., that
seven car loads of provisions had been
shipped to his city. The following was

received in reply:

“BRUNSWICK, Ga.., Oct. 11.~—Situation is
growing worse, 209 cases under treatment.
We are short in meats. Many thanks for
your liberal contributions.”

Brazilian Situation.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 12.——Both state and
navy departments decline to make public
the information in their possession as to
the latest phases of the complicated situ—
ation at Rio. It is known that instruc-
tions of an important character have been
cabled to Minister Thompson by personal
direction of President Cleveland, but the
contents of the dispatch are carefully
guarded. ‘

Too Slow to Suit.

HONESDALE, Pa, Oct. 1°.—-The boat-
men of the Delaware & Hudson canal
company have appointed a committee to
confer with the company ofl‘icials at Albany
concerning the slow movement of boats
between Honesdale and the Hudson river.
Idle boats line the canal from one end to
the other and the boatmen say it is the
worst season they ever experienced.

HARTFORD, Conn, Oct. 12.—“Jack”
Cronin who murdered Albert J. Skinner
last Friday, has been bound over without
bonds to the December termof the super-
ior court. Mrs. Skinner, the wife of Cro-
nin’s victim, is showing signs of returning
reason. .

Decide About Silver
in the Senate.

SENATOR ALLEN
TALKS ALL NIGHT

Dubois Plausibly Sets FOrth the Posi-
tion of the Silver Dion and V0015
hoes Makes an Earnest Appeal for
Majority Rule—Good Nature Mixed
With Dogged Determination Shown

‘ by Both Sides.

'WASHINGTON, Oct. 12.-—Thel. debate in
the senate yesterday on the silver purchase
repeal bill had many interesting features.
Among other tnings it showed the staying
qualiti'esof Mr. Cockrell (dem., Mo.) as a
speechmaker. Having argued against. the
bill for five hours on Monday and, five
hours on Tuesday he held the floor yester-
day another fOur hours. Within that
time he took. a short rest, while brief
speeches were made Mr. Smith (dem., N.
J.) and Mr. Irby (lain, S. 0.). As a. sen~
atorial debutant Mr. Smith made a decided
success. His speech in support of the bill
was able, sarcastic, sententious,"and it was
delivered in clear, strong tones, and with
a remarkable absence of - nervousness
natural to first stage appearances. he
was favored with considerable applause as
he took his seat, as was Mr. Irby' .(demq
8.0.), Who argued against the @ill, ‘and

company with the democratic party i
persisted in its anti-silver policy.
The Battle Begins.

At 6:05 p..m. Mr. Dubois (rep, Idaho).
rose and, said that it was past the
hour when the -_senator from Indi-
ana, Mr. Voorhees, usually made a motion
to adjourn. He asked the senator
whether he desired to submit that motion
now.

Voorhees, “not to make the motion this
evening, on the contrary, to ask the sen-
ate tos’rt in continuous session until the
pending measure is disposed of.”

During this proceeding the seats of ' the
senators werebeing filled by accessions
from the committee rooms and cloak
room, even Mr. Colquitt (dem., Ga.) be:
ing wheeled to his seat on his invalid
chair.

After Mr. Voorhees’ response to the chal-
lenge of the senator from Idaho, Mr. Du-
bois rose and said:

“This announcement means that the
senate is to be held in continuous session
until a vote is reached on the pending bill,
or until it is demonstrated that a vote can-
not be reached.

' “You cannot charge the opponents of
the pending measure with having resorted
to obstructive methods. It is true, they
have debated and discussed the question.
You cannot and will not charge them with
having willfully wasted time for the pur-
pose of delay. I have been at some pains
to examine the records, and find that while
32 opponents of repeal have spoken, 32 of
its champions have also spoken. I refer
to carefully prepared set speeches. There
have been as many, if not more, interrup-
tions and colloquy “brought on by the
friends than by the opponents of repeal.
The friends of the pending bill have con-
sumed about one-third of the time of the
senate in discussing this measure. With
this record, all must admit that if there
has been any delay it cannot be laid at our
doors alone. '

“Another fact which is important must
be patent to senators. The country has
been steadily drifting to the other side.
While the daily papers in the larger cities
and the bankers are abusive and insolent
and clamoring ior repeal, the people are
>making their wishes known to senators
through public meetings, private commu-
nications and country papers in such a
manner as to make their influence felt.
New York city has been most anxious for
repeal, to judge from its press and the
activity of its monied interests; yet the re-
publican state convention in its platform
adopted last week says'not one word on the

metallism. They have no word of condem-
nation of our-course and none of praise for
yours. I have gone thus somewhatfinto
detail, showing; the conditions that-'exist
in the senate and outside of it, to i make

unfairness of resorting to the methods
which you have apparently inaugurated.”
Voorhces Vehcment. . ; .

Mr. Voorhees asked if the opponents of
the repeal bill would set a time, or an
approximate time, for-a vote. ” Mr. Dubois
replied that several I; senators had not
spoken yet. and the subject should be fully
discussed. Mr. Voorhecs continued: “The
senator from Idaho says that what is pro-
posed is unjust and inhuman. Well, I am
not inhuman in my nature. I am not dis-
posed to hurt anybody. I would let a fly
out of the window, as Uncle Toby did.
But I am here charged with a great duty
legislation. I should have been glad to
have disposed of it at an earlier period
than now,‘but we have no rules under
whichI could do so. And now we have
to present the spectacle here (whether we
are young men‘ or old men) of testing our
physical endurance. This episode in our
. history will result in reforming the rules
of this body. I am ready at the proper
time (not in a heated struggle like the
present) to vote for some measure by which
" a determination can be reached. Other-
wise this body will lose its proper influ-
ence before the American people and‘ the
world. ‘

“I believe that this body should have
mics by which to conclude discussion and

. reach a. vote—rules more reasonable, more
sensible and more decent than the rule on.
which we are entering now. I stand here
masking the Opponents of this bill whether

declared that he and his people would pfrt ‘
' it

“I feel it my highest duty,” said Mr.-

subject, but, on the contrary, it favors bi-'

plain the lack of cause, uselessness and

they will name any day. fog a vote, and
they will not. They resort thus to -dila-
tory measures to prevent-any action. being
taken at all. When is-this to quit? When

is it to stop? I‘would rather be carried _
from this desk, feet foremost, and laid to

sleep forever in my home in Terre Hautc' .

than yield the right of majority to govern.
We started in here some weeks ago to dis;
cuss a measure of financial legislation. I
have nothing to say on that question now,
for we have reached a higher question
now than that. We have reached the ques-
tion of free government. We have
reached the question of cOnstitutional
government. We have reached the ques-
tion whether we have got a government
that can administer itself or not.

“I would not injure the minority. But
(passionately) shall the minority govern!
Answer me. Shall the minority govern?
Somebody has to rule. Somebody has to
control. Shall it be the minority or shall
it be'the majority! If the senator from
Idaho will suggest a possible day when the
minority will say it is ready to vote, I will
submit to it, gladly, willingly. The ques-
tion comes whether we have got a. govern-
ment at all or not. The question comes
whether that vicious principle (the most
vicious known in human history) that the
few shall govern the many, shall» prevail.
I have stood throughout my life, which
has been in some parts stormy, and has
not been very short, for the rule of the
majority. Whatever the majority pro-
nounces, under form of law, that should
be gracefully submitted to, I stand for
that simply to-night. I stand not here
talking of compromise. A good deal has
been talked about compromise during the
Week. Ihave not bad part in it. The
best has been done that. the rules permit,
so far as I know; and now, in default of
any answer as to when a vote can be
reached, I invoke the spirit of wisdom, and
fairness, and patience, and manhood, on
both sides; and We will proceed.”

Speech-making then began, the discus-
'slon being enlivened by many a sharp per-
sonal tilt.

Night Scenes. .

Late at night Senator Allen, who began
at 5:30 p. m., was still talking. Before
him was an array of books from which be
frequently quoted. Senators Voorhees and
Cullom were engaged in a pleasant conver-
. cation which evidently did not refer to the
pending question. Senators Dolph, Mc-
Pherson and Allison had their heads close
together. Senator Dubois, smiling, and
Senator Teller, frowning, were holding a
private consultation. Senators Mills and
Gray were engaged in a conversation with
Auditor Mansur of Missouri. Senator
Daniels attended to his private business
and without paying the slightest attention
to ,thc'speech, answered his correspondence.
Senator Peft‘er, leaning back in his chair
and with a beam of satisfaction on his
