111111013 WARNING. He ThinksWe Meiy Twist thepLion’s I Tail Too Hard Some Day. THEN THERE’D BE TROUBLE. Lord Chelmsford on His Way to Inspect the Canadian Frontier Defenses. Little Danger, He Thinks, That Russia Will Invade India. New York, Aug. 24.—Lord Chelmsford. the British general who gained fame fighting the Zulus, the Kaffirs and the Abyssinians, is at the Grand Hotel, and will remain a month in America. He is more than seventy years old, and has been long since retired from the army. This is his first visit to this country, and it will be one of more than or- dinary interest to the Canadian officials, because he intends to inspect the line of defense between the United States and Canada. It is, however, an un— ofl‘lcial inspection, and is for the pur-_ pose of gratifying his soldierly curiosity. For one of his years, Lord Chelmsford is active and walks with the buoyancy of youth. “Do you expect a. war between this country and Canada?" he was asked. “Oh, no," he replied, smiling. “I have a. curiosity to inspect Canada’s line of defense along the great lakes, and for that purpose I will make the trip through the lakes to Duluth. There is no reason why the United States should go to war with Canada, even if it does pull the British lion’s tail frequently. I think this republic has territory enough and does not wish any more. Of course, we know that politics has much to do with pulling the British lion’s tail, and re- ceive the pull accordingly. But the trouble is that it may go too far some timeand arouse the British people. Serious Result Possible. “The politicians follow the people, and the end might be serious. But Lord Salisbury would not be deceived and would do nothing precipitate. He has a level head and is not carried away by clamor. The intemperate letter written by Secretary Sherman is calculated to arouse the English people. I do not an- ticipate any trouble, however, between the two countries. The Anglo-Saxon race in America, I was informed coming over on the steamship, took no'part in the clamor against England on several past occasions. “Will you inspect the army in this country?” “I do not know where to find the army.” He laughed and added that. the United States did not need an army, and it should be thankful for it. In re- gard to the situation in India and the frontier trouble, he declared that Great Britain had made a. mistake in pushing the army outposts to the extreme fron- tier. “There is no danger of Russia invad- ing India," he added, “and yet that bug- bear is used to send soldiers to those bleak and lonely frontiers. We have too few soldiers there if we intend to remain, and if we pushed on through Afghanistan and met with disaster, the Afghans would in turn attack us. If Russia should come that way, we could meet her without going so far. In these lonely frontier posts we are too far from our base of supplies, and besides the native troops do not like the duty there. When war comes the English officers stand the brunt.” The Treacherons Amecr. "Is not Afghanistan threatening to rise?” “The ameer is not a. friend of Eng- land and cannot be trusted. But I do not believe there will be a holy war de- clared by the Mohammedans. The Eng- lish will move up re-enforcements and defeat the tribes attacking Chitral and other frontier points.” He praised the Turkish soldiers and spoke of their good fighting qualities when he was with them in the Crimean war. A “All this sympathy for the Armenians is wasted,” he remarked. "They are called Christians, but they are only so nominally. Lord Salisbury has wisely paid no attention to the clamor raised in England in behalf of these people. If the truth were known it would be found that the Armenian revolutionary societies in New York, London and Paris started or instigated the trouble, and they are responsible for the massa- cres. On the other hand, the Turks are sober, steady and most tractable. If they had good rulers or a good govern- ment they would succeed and no doubt rise. As it is they have accomplished wonders." Lord Chelmsford left today for Al- bany and Niagara Falls. He does not expect to visit Washington. but will re-l turn home from Canada. New Beet Sugar Factories. San Francisco, Aug. 24.-—The plant of the Union stockyards at Rodeo, which originally cost $1, 000, 000, but which has been idle for five years, is to be con- verted into a beet sugar factory by the same company which is preparing to erect a factory at Crockett, in Contra Costa county. Senator Perkins is among the promoters. ’ Girls Accused of Forgery.

DBAGON’S INSANITY. i’hysicians Report No Change—Lost Chap- - ter of a Sensational Story. Boston, Aug. 24.—-—The physicians say that there is no change today in tne condition of Edward Parker Deacon, who was brought into public notice by " his killing of M. Abeille in his wife’s apartments in Cannes, and who yester— day afternoon was committed to Mc- Lean hospital, in Waverly, violently in- sane. Mr. Deacon came to this city from Narragansett pier on Thursday, accom- panied by his nurse and valet, E. L. Peck. They registered at the Hotel Bellevue, where Mr. Deacon is in the habit of stopping. Mr. Deacon was acting very strangely, but as he is ec— centric his demeanor was attributed to this. Early Friday morning he grew vio- lent, and W. P. Blake, who has charge of Mr. Deacon’s property in this city, MR. AND MRS. E. P. DEACON. was called in. He at once summoned physicians, and they declared that Mr. Deacon was insane, and unless he was taken to a sanitarium at once he would permanently lose his reason. Before this could be done he had se- cured a revolver and driven his nurses and attendants from the rooms. He was finally removed to the Massachu- setts General hospital, but declared that the nurses were spies hired to take his life. where he has improved slightly. Aside from his mental trouble Mr. Deacon looks physically ill. The com- manding and dignified air that once dis- tinguished him has gone and he looks haggard and worn. Mr. Deacon is a grandson of Mrs. Harrison Gray Otis, and was well known in New York‘ so- ciety when he married the daughter of the late Rear Admiral Baldwin. They lived much in Washington, and there first met M. Abeille, an attache of the French legation. In 1892, while in Europe, Mr. Deacon found Abeille in Mrs. Deacon’s room and shot and killed him. Mr. Deacon was sentenced to one year’s imprison- THE._EVE1V1NG GAZETTE Then he was sent to therly, _ ment, but was pardoned by President, Carnot. vorce from his wife. Since then he has been living quietly, but showing great eccentricity. His ex- pulsion from a fashionable Newport club for'taking ice from the drinking water pitcher to put on his head is fresh in the public'mind. " ‘Revenue Seashell Desert. Seattle, Aug. 24.—'—The gold fever has seized the members of the revenue ma— rine service. Three of the crew of the cutter Perry, which met the gold laden steamship Portland at Dutch'Harbor. deserted and started for St. Michael’s. They 'stole a boat from the North American Commercial company, robbed the storeroom of the Perry and boldly went out on the open sea for the 100 mile journey to St. Michael’s. Mormon Elders Whipped.
