I'AMINB 'RIOTS IN POLAND.

The Mob Charged on and the Disturb‘
'ance Quelled—Queen Victoria to
visit Spain—A Rufiian Plot
That Failed.

LONDON, Sept. 18.—The Berlin corre-
fspondent of The Standard telegraphs that
Tt-he German foreign office has been receiv-
ing disquieting news from China, who is
unable to fulfill her promises to the pow-
ers to punish those implicated in the re-
cent outrages upon foreigners and to pro-
tect foreign residents.

The ”Tumors that France and Russia
would not take part in any joint action of
‘the combined fleets, should it be decided

that such a. step is necessary, are pro-.

nounced untrue. Germany will increase
the number of her warships in Chinese
waters, and ‘will be prepared to take
strong measures to protect German sub-
jects or their property, or to take an active
part in a naval demonstration

It is reported from Paris that the nego-
tiations for the new Russian loan have
reached a successful termination, the dif-
ficulty regarding the price at which the
.loan was to be taken by the French finan-
ciers having been satisfactorily settled.
The loan, it is said, will be issued on Oct.
10. The price finally agreed upon is from
78% to 79%.

Distress and Riots in Poland.

WARSAW, Sept. 18.—Seven commercial
firms in the manufacturing town of
Thomaszow, Poland, have become bank~
rupt, owing to the prevailing hard times
throughout the country. The distress in
various provinces is very great. Disturb-
ances on this account are frequent.

At Lawiereze yesterday 300 spinners and
weavers became riotous, demanding that
the authorities furnish them with an op-
portunity to obtain food. The disorder
culminated in an attack upon the bake-
shops, grocery stores, etc. A company of
troops were called out, and failing to dis-
;perse the crowd charged upon them with
‘bayonets. .

The scene was a fearful one,’many of
the people in the crowd receiving serious
injuries. The mob was finally dispersed.

The Plot Miscarrled.

LONDON, Sept. 18.—There is no doubt
:that the gathering of an immense Russian
force in Bessarabia was intended as part
.of .a plot to capture Constantinople by
means of the Russian fleet and army. This
plot has miscarried and matters go on
\with-the sublime porte much as ever, the
country being bankrupt and even the sul-
‘tan having to curtail his household ex-
ypenditures.

The mention of the Mitylene incident
was-the first intimation to Russia that an

.En lish fleet was near the Dardunelles'

an ’ prepared to act in case of necessity,
should Russia continue to send her vessels
of war .through the straits.

Balmaceda, at Mendoza.

PARIS, Sept. 18.—A dispatch received
there from Buenos Ayres announces that
ex~President Balmaceda, of Chili, has ar-
rivedat Mendoza, the capital of the Ar-
gentine :province of that name, and situ-
ated not far from the Argentine frontier.

The same dispatch says that yesterday
evening only fifty persons remained in
custody throughout Chili charged by the
Congressional party with crimes against
the state.

Victoria to Visit Spain.
MADRID, Sept. 18.—The queen regent was
desirous of personally visiting Consuegra,
but was dissuaded from so doing by her
ministers, Who represented that it would
beexceedingly difficult for her to reach
the ruined town without great discomfort.
The queen finally gave way, but an-
nounced her intention of going to Con-
snegra as soon as any communication
with that place is rte-established.

The Chiliau Silver Safe.

LONDON, Sept. 18.—The Chilian silver
brought from Montevideo by the steam-
ship Moscllc, consigned by ex-Prcsident
Balmaceda to various war material manu-
facturing firms, was delivered safely at
the Bank of England, where it will re-
main by order of the courts until the legal
questions which have. arisen in connection
with it have been decided.

Holy Coat Cures Reported.
TBEVES, Sept. 18.—The first party of
American pilgrims, numbering sixty per-
sons, under Missionary Braun, of Minna
sota, has arrived here. The newspapers
are beginning to publish reports of cures
through the touching of the holy garment.

ind She Proposes to Shake. Things Up
Pretty Lively in Chlcngo.

CINCINNATI, Sept. 18.—Miss Vera Ave. is
not the famous Dis Debar. This has been
proved, but her real name is still un-
known. Next Sunday she starts for Chi-
cago to speak to the people from the stage
of a museum, and make public the names
of the twenty-seven men who were in the

the list of the men who plotted the mur-
der.

“Chicago will be on fire next week,”
said she last evening. "My proof is con-
vincing, and after what has happened no
one will be spared. I will be blown to
pieces, but I will speak the truth, and no
one can refute it when I show twenty-
seven documents which I secured from a
foolish housemaid who had been intrusted
with them by a frightened suspect.

“O’Sullivan, the iceman, is innocent,
she continued. “The underlings sufiere
and the ringleaders escaped, but they wil
not escape now. It was known that I had
this terrible evidence. I was drugged,
boxed up and shipped'away to die on a
train. I did not die, and as if by a mir-
acle I recovered and escaped to the streets
almost naked, then was suddenly identi-
fied at long range as Mme. Dis Debar,
and aniattempt was made to smuggle me
away to Long View asylum, but. Judge
Ferris knew I was not crazy.”

Accidentally Killed His Friend.

CHICAGO, Sept. 18. —Folger A. Bigelow,
a.young artist, was instantly killed in his
father's residence by the accidental dis-
charge of a revolver in the hands of An-
thony L. Courtney, a companion. Mr.
Bigelow had bought a new revolver and
Mr. Courtney was examining it. He
"pointed it at the wall and snapped the
hammer several times, but the cartridges
failed to explode. Then he raised the
hammer again, intending to remove the
cylinder and see where the trouble was.
As Bigelow walked up in front of the
weapon Courtney’s thumb slipped from
the hammer, and in a minute his friend
was dead with a bullet in his heart.

General Grant’s ‘ 61110113,,
ORIGINAL $7 EDITION FOR 30 CENTS.

NO BOOK, excepting the Bible, has ever had such a sale in the United
States as General Grant’s Memoirs. 650,000 copies have already gone
into the homes of the rich, but the subscription price of $7 has placed it

 

. beyond the reach of people in moderate circumstances. If 650,000 people

have been willing to pay $7 for Grant’s Memoirs, there must be a couple of
million people in the United States who want them, and will jump at the-
opportunity to buy them at the low figure here ofi'ered.

We will send you General Grant’s Memoirs, publisher’s original
edition, best paper, green and gold binding, hitherto sold by subscription
at $7, for 30 cents—

1116130 Gents! Absolutely Only 30 Cents!

~‘>,;

 

and absolutely a proposition such as has never been made in the history of
book publishing. The two splendid volumes of Grant’s Memoirs, of which
650,000 copies have already been sold—not a cheap edition, but the best—
for 30 cents; provided you send your subscription to THE WEEKLY GAZETTE
for one year, and also a subscription of $3 for THE COSMOPOLITAN MAGAZINE,
the brightest and cheapest of the great illustrated monthlies, itself equal to
the best 84 magazine.

Tun COSMOPOLITAN is enabled to make this offer because of the purchase
of 600,000 volumes at a price which even publishers would deem impossible,
and with the idea of running up its circulation to half a million copies. By
contract with THE COSMOPOLITAN, THE WEEKLY GAZETTE is enabled to offer
our readers a share in the low price obtained through the largest purchase
of books ever made in the history of the world.

If, however, you have Grant’s books, Tun CosnoroLITAs’s offer will
permit you to take instead,

Gen. Sherman’s Memoirs, 2 vols, sold by subscription for $5.00
Gen. Sheridan’s Memoirs, 2 vols,, sold by subscription for $6.00
Gen. McGlellan’s Memoirs, sold by subscription for ~ $3.75

All of these are bound in cloth, green and gold, inuniform style with
Grant's Memoirs. ’

THE COSMOPOLITAN is sent postage prepaid, but the postage on the
books, at the etc of a cent per ounce, must be remitted with the order:
Gen. Grant’s Memoirs, 96 oz., 48 cents; Gen. Sheridan’s Memoirs, 92 oz.,
46 cents; Gen. Sherman’s Memoirs, 84 oz., 42 cents; Gen. McClellaa’s
Memoirs, 48 02?, 24 cents. .

WSend us at once $3.00 for year’s subscription to THE COSMOPOLITAN
$1.50 for year’s subscription to THE WEEKLY GAZETTE, and 30 cents for a
set of Memoirs—$4.80 in all—to which add postage on the particular set of
Memoirs selected. Address all orders: ’
