Dastardly Attempt to Murder the
President 'of France.
WOULD BE ASSASSIN TAKEN.
The Shot Was Fired During the Progress
of a Review and the Miser-cant
Now Declares Be Used Only
a Blank Cartridge.
PARIS, July 15..—An attempt was made
to assassinate President Faure today.
The president had gone to Longchamps
toreview the troops. He had no sooner en-
tered the field than a man in the crowd
stepped forward and fired a revolver at
him. The shot did not-take sheet. The
would be assassin was at once arrested.
He declared that he had only fired a blank
‘cartridge and that he had no intention of
killing the president.
When it became known in the crowd at
Longchamps that the president had not
been hurt by the pistol, the greatest
enthusiasm was manifested. Cheer after
cheer was sent up, and the people could
scarcely be restrained by the guards from
crowding aboutthe place where the presi-
dent and his suit were standing.
This was a historical day in Paris, being
the anniversary of the fall of the Bastille.
Some Other Plots.

PRESIDENT FAURE.
the French republic there have been three
more or less defined plots concocted for his
assassination.
In the first of these the principal was
said to be an anarchist, known as Petite
Bordeaux, a deserts: from the French
army, whose plan, as alleged at the time,
was to kill the president during the fates
at Havre in April, 1895.
The authorities being
nothing came of this afiair.
In J one of last year a commercial. trav-
eler named Hillairand was locked up by
the police of Perigneux upon information
that he had threatened to fire upon Presi-
dent Faure while the latter was visiting
the town in order to draw attention to cer-
tain real or fancied grievances.
It was this same Hillairand who in 1887
forewarned,
attempted to assassinate Marshal Bazaine ,
at Madrid.
‘ Hiliairand was not punished for his ut-
terances regarding M. Faure.
On March 1 of this year three Spaniards
and an Italian were arrested on board a
railway train at valence, having no tick.
ets. -
They said they were going to Lyons to
see M. Faure, and as they were armed
with daggers or razors the newspapers
came to the conclusion that they had
formed a conspiracy against the life of
M. Faure.
These men were subsequently liberated.
Honors to Ll Bung Chang.
PARIS, July 15.—L‘i Hung Chang, the
Chinese statesman, was given a state re-
ception, with military honors, here today.
President Fours, members of the ministry

expressing his ho e that there would be a
growth of the fr endly relations existing
between France and China, and President
Faure responded in a similar strain.
HAMMOND WILL GET EVEN.
It Is His Purpose to Try to Divert Eng-
lish Capital to This Country.
LONDON, July 15.—Mr. John Hays Ham-
mond, the American mining engineer
whose connection with the Johannesburg
reform committee brought upon him sen-
tence of death. but who was pardoned by
President Kruger, is in this city and has
been interviewed by a London newspaper
correspondent.
Mr. Hammond says that he will not re-
turn to Johannesburg. It is his present
intention to remain in London for about
six Weeks and than to visit America with
his wife. .
He will return to England and settle in
London to take charge of the Goldfields
company’s business. “I, shall try,” said
Mr. Hammond, “to divert English capital
to the United States. .
“I shall not testify at ' the trial of Dr.
Jameson, ” said Mr. Hammond, ”unless
Jameson should make the statement that
it was the’ wish of the people of J ohannes-
burg that he should come to rescue them.
We of the reform committee repeatedly
told Dr. Jameson not to make the experi-
ment, as the reform movement did not
wantrhim. I desire to thank my friend'sa
in the United States for their kindness
during my imprisonment. ”
Mr. Hammond says that his health has
been fully restored by the sea voyage from
Cape Town to London.

LONDON, J uly 15.—Dispatches received
here from Canon, island of Crete, report
that all of the Christian and Muuulman
members of the assembly have arrived
there. The resolutions demanding modi-
fication of the Halepa convention will, it
is added, he admitted by the Christians
for the consideration of the assembly with-
out delay-
The Mussulmans are bitterly Opposed
during the progress of negotiations to
permitting the insurgents to remain
armed. It is believed that if the ports
refuses to make the concessions demanded
hostilities will be resumed.
The Turks are arming the native Mus-
sulmans.
Lord Salisbury has written to the Cre-
tan relief committee stating that owing to
the objections of the powers he has been
compelled to order the English consul in
Crete to abstain from distributing its
funds. The committee has now invited the
chaplain of the British embassy at Athens.
to undertake the relief of the Cretans.
Turkey Prepares For War.
SALONICA, July 15.—Twenty battalions
of Bedlfs have been called out and ordered
to, join the Third army corps. Six battal-
ions, it is stated, will proceed at once to

Macedonian frontier. The Redifs in the
other provinces of, Turkey have been’ or-
dered to be in readiness for mobilization.
CHAMBERLAIN'B HAND APPABENT.
00m Paul‘s Pupil In Diplomacy Is Now
. “Forcing” the Ministry.
LONDON, July 15.-—Th.e political situa-
tion has been only partially relieved by
the yielding of Balfour, chief secretary for
Ireland, to the pressure directed by T. W.
Russell, member of parliament for the
south division of Tyrone, and Joseph
Chamberlain, for modification of the
amendments to the Irishfimd bill.
There was acontlnuance today of the
demands of Mr. Russell and others for
further modification of the measure, while
the press and peOplc generally are giving
expression to sentiments of extreme dis-
gust at the feebleness displayed by the
‘ government.
Many conservatives admit that if it
were not for the hopeless divisions that
exist between the Liberals and Radicals
the government would be in a serious
plight, as the land bill is the second gov-
ernment measure of supreme importance
introduced at this session of parliament
which is now being wrecked on lines laid
down by the government.
A few more bills like the education bill
and the Irish land bill, if wrecked by
pressure within the party, will be sure to
bring the conservative party to such a
difi‘icult pass as will necessitate the recon-
struction of the ministry, an end to which
Mr. Chamberlain, who supplies the real
force of the present pressure, would not
object.

trations occurred. Many towns in Iowa.
Illinois, Wisconsin, Michigan and Ohio

ALBANY, July 15.—The state printing

An Allegation That He Brought About
Bryan’s Nomination.
scones GIVEN Er “HOLLAND”
The New York Correspondent of a Repub-
lican Paper Declares That the Ex-
Spealrer Long Ago Decided That ‘
Bryan Must Be Named. -
NEW YORK, July 15.—-Holland, the
well known correspondent, sends the fol-
lowing to his paper, the Philadelphia [Press
(REF): _ .V '
1'. Whitney is reported today as of the
opinion that the nomination of Bryan was
due to no sudden emotion And was not
the tribute of a convention to the charm
and influence of eloquence. Mr. Whitney
has reason to think that the nomination
of Bryan is a triumph of politics, quite as
skillfully employed as any of which he has
had knowledge in all his experience. Sen-
atorfiill goes even farther than Mr. Whit-
ney if the reports which are in circulation
here today have truth in them, for the
senator believ s thatvthe nomination of
Bryan was in large part due ‘ to the cun-
ning and to the influence of the car-speaker
of the house, Mr. Crisp. It is true that
Mr. Crisp did not appear personally at the
convention and had, in fact, so timed his
departure for Europe as to be upon the
water when the convention was in session.
But his plans, which had in view the
nomination of Bryan, were made last
winter, and they had been. carried out
with the smoothness and periection of ac-
tion of an admirable machine.
Both Mr. Whitney and Se or Hill, it
is reported, Were satisfied after being a day
or two in Chicago that the copvention, in-
stead of being without a leaner, had one.
But they could not put their finger upon
him. The steady, persistent influence,
working mysteriously, but always surely,
was there, but the person who exerted it
was not to be discovered. The active men
there had all the mannerisms of lieuten-
ants or of those who were carrying out a
well conceived plan, and it was not until
after the platform had been adopted that
something caused Senator Hill, with his
quick intuition, to point to the absent
leader, the real directing, though admira-
bly concealed power, Charles F. Crisp.
It is inferred from some things we have
heard today that some word, perhaps in-
cautiously uttered, or some not of Mr.
Lewis, the delegate from Georgia who
placed Bryan in nomination, caused Sen-
ator Hill to turn with quick wit to the
leader and master of the Georgia Democ-
racy, Mr. Crisp, as the real director of that
convention. The senator is to be fortified
in his opinion by information which will
be taken to him while he is in this city
this week.
Hill’s View Apparently Confirmed.
A gentleman who has large business in-
terests in eastern Tennessee, not far from
the Georgia line. and w o is there much
of the time, although home is in this
city, was thrown in a business way into
association with some of the leading Dem-
ocrats from Georgia last winter. This man
is a Democrat and is brought into close
relations with Democrats of influence in
Georgia by reason of his marriage to a
Georgia woman. It happened last winter
that he had a long conversation with Mr.
Lewis—in fact, several of them—in which
the silver question was discussed and the
programme of the silver Democracy, as
laid out by the Georgia leaders,'was re-
vealed to him. Then it was, six months
ago, that Mr. Lewis said tO'hlm: “The
nominee of the Democratic national con-
vention will be Bryan of Nebraska. He
will be “not only supported by Georgia,
but his nomination has been suggested as
an ideal one by Mr. Crisp.”
Mr. Lewis went on to say, as reported
by this man. that Bryan, in the first place,
was peculiarly'available, because he lives
in Nebraska; in the second place, because
he is a young man and has no record or
associations to embarrass him or those
‘who will direct the campaign. In the
third place, Mr. Crisp regarded him as
perhaps the most effective speaker for the
stump, at least in a campaign such as
would follow his nomination in the Dem-
ocratic party. And there were other rea-
sons given, perhaps more specifically polit-
ical and personal, why Mr. Crisp saw in
Bryan the candidate for the free silver
Democracy.
It was then pointed out also that, ac-
cording to Mr. Crisp’s view, Bryan should
not be prominently mentioned in associa-
tion with the nomination, but that he
should be kept well in the background
until at the proper moment he could be
brought before the convention and in
such dramatic and sensational manner as
Would persuade it.
These things were told to this business
man last winter, and the history of the
convention shows that the purposes then
entered into have been carried out with
almost amazing exactness.
To those who know what the relations
between Mr. Crisp and Mr. Bryan have
been ever since Bryan entered congress it
will seem entirely reasonable that Mr.
Crisp, being entirely ineligible for the
presidency and certainly not available
even though he had not been born abroad,
should have chosen Bryan as a man after
his own heart. Those who will study the
course of the Georgia delegation will see
how reasonable it is to infer that those
man went to Chicago having .Bryan in
mind as the candidate. The impression of
this business man is that if Bryan be
elected Mr. Crisp will be the real powor
in his administration and will piobably
be named as secretary of the treasury. ‘
The Matabele Rebels.
BULAWAYO, July 15.—-Grave news has
reached this place from the Mangwc and
Tatl districts. It is to the efiect that a
rebel regiment «has taken up a position
about 25 miles southwest of Bulawayo.
Fake, one of the most noted of the native
chiefs, has joined the rebels with re-enforco-
ments and ordered the construction of
forts on the Tati road. The Makaiakas
are already in great force. Fighting is
expected soon. “
Two Women Burned to Death.
BALTIMORE, July 15.—Mrs. Thomas
Woolford, aged 64, and her sister, Mrs.
Elizabeth Slemaker, aged 65, were burned
to death by the explosion of a lamp at
their home. The women were ascending
the steps, one of them carrying the lamp,
when it exploded, throwing the burning
oil all over them. ,
Alleged Conspiracy In Peru.
LONDON, July 15.-—A dispatch to The
Times from Lima, Peru, says that a con-
spiracy organized by General Caceres
against the government has been discov-
ered and that many officers and civilians
have been arrested. : -
A happy man is
_, a healthy man, and
a healthy man is
’ generally happy.
You never saw a
happy‘man in your
life who had Indi—
gestion. If a man
gets up in the
morning with a
. foul taste and
fouler breath; if
he feels listless and
sin 'sh' if he is
f diz an blind the
' minute he steps
out of bed; if his breakfast doesn‘t taste
good; if he feels utterly inca able of work, .
it is a pretty sure sign that h s digestion is
out of order-that his principal trouble is
constipation. If he lets this condition run
on, there is no'telling where it Will stop.
Nine-tenths of all human sickness comes
from constipation: The first thing that
every doctor asks when he is called to see a
patient is whether the bowels are in good
order. It is nonsense to call a doctor fol
such asimple thing. It is nonsense to let
such aSimple thing ow into such a serious
thing, as it always _
Pierce’s Pleasant Pellets cure constipation.
They not only afi’ord immediate and'pleas-
ant relief from all the distressing symp-
toms, but they cure permanently and posi-
tively. There are 10,000 medicines that can
be taken, to give temporary relief. The
“ Pleasant Pellets ” are the only things that
really cure. - -
There are plenty of. druggists who will
try to sell you something else; You know
.just as well as we do that an honest
druggist wouldn’t do such a thing—
that an honest druggist would give you
what you ask for. You. know that when a
druggist insists on givrng you something
else, there must be a reason for It. We
know what that reason is—he makes a big-
ger profit on the other thing. Any drug-
gist in America will supply the “Pellets "
if you insist on it.
