ET T .E . - ‘ . - PLOTS AGAINST ENGLAND. g The War In India 15 Apparently" A; I suming Serious Proportions. ‘ London, Sept. 20.——The fact that no less than 10 batteries of horse and field artillery have been ordered to embark for India during the months of Septem- .ber and October is much commented upon in military circles. Under ordi- nary circumstances, the four batteries now in India would have been relieved this month. But these batteries have been ordered to remain in India, and, therefore, there will shortly be on the frontier 14 batteries of artillery, a full ‘complement for an army corps. As the British force now assembled on the frontier is of ample strength tc Wipe out all visible resistance, the only conclusion that can be reached in re- gard to this dispatch of re-enforcemente of artillery is that the authorities are possessed of information of a serious character. The intimation just convey- ed by the war office to the London com- mercial agent of the ameer of Afghanis; tan that no war material or machinery for the manufacture thereof will be al- lowed to cross the frontier during the present crisis, indicates that the Brit- ish government has by no means entire confidence in the ameer’s fidelity, and it is hinted the government has learned that, while professing friendliness tc Great Britain, the ameer has been se- cretly preparing for war. ”Well informed circles are also dis- cussing the story of secret correspond- ence between Russia and Afghanistan, which is saidvto have fallen into the hands of the British officials, and it is further intimated that a. Widespread plot, embracing the Beluchis and oth- ers, has been discovered. The truth 01 otherwise of these stories will develop hereafter, but the fact remains that the large increase in- the strength of the British artillery in India cannot-be in- tended for use against the Afridis. LEI: TO RETURN TO CUBA. President McKinley Induces Him to Again Act as Consul General. Washington, Sept. 20.—-General Fitz Hugh Lee, consul general to Cuba, had a long consultation yesterday with the president and Secretary Alger at the White House by special appointment General Lee carefully reviewed the sit- uation in Cuba and explained at length all points upon which either the presi- dent or Secretary Alger asked for in- formation. General Lee gave his own views very freely to the president, but after the interview was very reticent about the‘nature of the report he had made. He said the president had not given him an outline of his policy. It is evi- dent, however, that the president is deeply impressed with the critical char- acter of the situation in Cuba as de- scribed by General Lee, as it is under- stood that at the conference he strong- ly urged Consul General Lee, who was anxious to retire, to retain his office at least for the present and to return tc Havana at his earliest cOnvenience. As it has been strongly intimated for sev- eral months that ex-Congressman Al- drich would succeed General Lee at Ha? vana and that the latter probablywould not return, the president’s actiontaiscon strued. to mean that he thinks it inad- visable to make a change at this junc- ture. General Lee has left here for Coving ton, Va., but before his departure ad-, mitted that ‘he Would return to Cuba as soon as he had arranged his private affairs, 'pr'obably about the middle oi October. In private conversation with close personal friends. General Lee has expressed himself vigorously as to the situation in Cuba and has been very em- phatic in his condemnation of some 01 General Weyler’s methods. The Lynching of Arroyo. 'City of Mexico, Sept. 20.——Orders have been given to investigate the lynching of. Arroyo. President Diaz has decided that the inquiry shall be most rigorous and that the guilty parties shall be se- verely punished, as he feels that the act was a reproach to the nation, which has ’taken pride in the fact that lynch law has been unknown here. Twenty odd men arrested are still in custody, and formal papers are being drawn up in their cases. Made a Cripple For Life. Bellaire, 0., Sept. 20.—At Centerville, Belmont county, Nora, wife of Rev.

Judge Wallace Nominated For Chief Judge of the Court of Appeals. New York, Sept. 20.—The Republican state committee met at the Fifth Ave- nue hotel Saturday and by a unani- mous vote nominated William J. Wal- lace of Albany, now a. United States cir- cuit judge, as its candidate for chief justice of the court of appeals. The committee reaffirmed in hearty terms the principles of~the St. Louis platform. indorsei the administrations of Presi- dent McKinley and Governor Black and "told of the “beneficient results" of the Raines law. , As a final stroke the committee issued an address to the voters of the state calling 0n them to standby the party. In the address the Citizens’ union was roundly denounced for its refusal to join hands with the county' organiza- tion, and the county committee was en~ couraged t0 DUt a straight ticket in the field. Summed up, the deliberations of the committee were carried out with all the smoothness and precision of a well oiled machine. There were no surprises of any kind. Jacob Worth wasn’t read out Of the WWW, and as far as could be learned his name was not even men- tioned in open meeting. ‘ In fact, nothing occurred to mar what was; probably the most harmoni- ous gathering in the history of the committee. Senator Platt, Chauucey M. DeDeW: Edward Lauterbach and the other lead- ers were on hand before and during the meeting, as were most of the big' guns of the party in the state. In fact, the meeting brought out the largest at- tendance of any similar event in the last five years. Senator Platt, who sat through the meeting, seemed on the very best possible terms with his lieu- tenants, and his control of the commit- tee seemed undisputed. On motion of Committeeman Davis, who represents Cortland county in the committee, John W. Miller of Cortland was given the privileges of the floor Mr. Miller read a; resolution reciting the troubles of the rival factions in Cort- land and wound up by asking the com- mittee to declare Franklin B. Saunders the regular candidate of the party for assembly from that district. This was done without a dissenting vote. For an emblem the committee adopt- ed the eagle, and after electing Robert M. Johnson, a committeeman from the Sixth congressional district, in place of the late Henry C. Saffen, the meeting adjourned. Contrary to, expectation, General \Voodford’s resignation as a member of the committee was not ten- dered. ' Threaten to Bolt Parker. New York, Sept. 20.-—A newspaper of this City, having editorially charged that Judge Parker, the Democratic nominee for chief judge of the‘ court of appeals, did not vote for William J. Bryan at the last election~ Henry M. McDonald, president oftthc LoyalDem- ocratic league, announces that the league will withdraw its support from Judge Parker unless he issues a state- ment denying the charge. Mr. McDon- ald has so notified Judge Parker by wire. ‘ A Fatal Frolic. Cambridge, Mass, Sept. 20.——Tommy Mullahan was playing with some com- panions on Sixth street, when one of them dared him to climb an electric light pole and touch the wires. The lit- tle fellow accepted the challenge and climbed the pole. As he reached the cross bar he grasped a wire with one hand, and at the same moment his head came in contact with another wire. I;le was instantly enveloped in a sheet of flame and literally burned'to death be- fore the spectators fully realized what was happening. —Adverti_Se in the GAZETTE. Fi RES THAT LEAK. The Morgan & Wright single-tubs quick-repair tire must be regarded as a. distinct improvement in bicycle tire construction. It has the following ad- vantages: While punctures in it can be re- paired with plugs, or semi-liquid in' jections, as well as in any other single-tube tire, it can be permanent]; repaired by using the quick-repaii strip inside the tire. See out No. 1. No. 1. By injecting M. & W. quick-repaii cement through the puncture, and then pressing down on the tire with the thumb. as in out No. 2, the repair No. 3. No. 2. strip inside is picked up by the cement, thus closing the puncture, as in out No. 3. ’ . The Morgan 8: Wright single-tn quick-repair tire is guaranteed not porous. This is on account of the way in which it is made. Nearly every rider has heard of tires that “leak like a sieve.” - Many tires rot, because water gets into the fabric between the two layers of rubber. The Morgan & Wright fabric is proof against moisture. . Everybody knows how comfortable Morgan & Wright tires are, and yet how seldom they puncture. This is due to the fabric. Ask any bicycle dealer whether other tires last as long as Morgan & Wright tires. Ask, also, what the Morgan & Wright guarantee means. Morgan & Wright tires are repaired free of charge, at the factory in Chicago or at any of the Morgan & Wright free repair shops. located in the principal cities. N.
