The Boston Globe from Boston, Massachusetts • 5

THE BosTroN DAILY GLOBE TUESDAY, JULY 31, 1894. 5 FOUND ON THE the Globe TYR cJTRAII Matthews, Sampson and Chadwick, to enter at Once into the consideration of the possibility of transforming the dynamite gun cruiser Vesuvius into a torpedo cruiser of the first class. The board will determine whether it will add to the efficiency of the vessel for naval purposes, and report upon the advisability and cost of making the necessary changes. The Vesuvius was commissioned June 7, 1890. and although every effort has been made to utilize her pneumatic guns during the past four years she has not been a success.

The possible practicability of these guns has yet to be demonstrated, even on land, but on a floating gun carriage, which is what the Vesuvius amounts to these weapons are, to all intents and purposes, useless. The Vesuvius has a speed of 22 knots per hour and cost $350.000. blazes. it eis believed, were of incendiary origin. Every member of the fire department was employed for 11 hours continuously.

The tire losses for the month of July aggregated $1,230,300. THOSE $1,000,000 THISTLES. Conference Report on Agricultural Appropriation Bill Shows Agreement on All Items Except One.

SELECT MAN OUTSIDE OF TAMMANY. Decision of Leaders in Planning Mayoralty Fight This Fall if Such Course Becomes Necessary. NEW YORK, July 31There now appears to be little doubt that the Tammany leaders are prepared to go Outside of the organization for a candidate for mayor this fall, if they find this course necessary. Mayor Gilroy said as much today. "1 am Out of the race," he said, "and Tammany is not bound to select a man from within the organization.

We may nominate a man who is not a member of Tammany hall, if it is thought that the interests of the democratic party require it. "The fight this year is but the skirmish. before 1896. If the republicans win in this city and state this fall there is not the slightest doubt but they will carry the country in 1896. They will also elect the next congress and leave the president without the support of the legislative branch of the government during the two years of his term.

"In view of these conditions, it is the duty of every democrat and every democratic organization to Join in an effort to save the democratic party. Personal sacrifices must be made, personal ambitions must be cast aside, and every democrat must go to work to defeat the common enemy." "What are the prospects of democratic harmony this year?" asked the reporter. "I think the prospects are good," the mayor replied. "From the tone of the talk I have heard I believe there is a general disposition among democrats to work together this year. All democrats who are familiar with the situation see that it would be suicidal to keep up party fights at this thne.

The republicans are going to make a supreme effort to get control of the city and state governments, and, a I have eald. if they succeed, it Is goodby to the democratic ascendency in the city, state and nation for some time to come."

Turner of the Brighton av Baptist church has started on his annual vacation trip through New HampShire, Maine and Canada. An itinerant pedler of jewelry who visited Brighton last evening fared rather hardly at the hands of a crowd on Market st, which evidently failed to appreciate the advantages to be derived from the purchase of cheap jewelry. He had hardly set his stand before a crowd of young men and boys commenced a fusllade of vegetables and tin cans, and finally demolished his stand. Sales were not large, and the Jeweler was a sadder and a wiser man by the experience when he took the electric for Boston. NORTH ABINGTON.

Important Land Sale at East Dedham. Market Generally Dull and but Few Transactions Noted. Hot Weather Drives Broken Away for a Vacation. There is not much going on in real estate circles. Both news and sales are becoming scarce, and the next two weeks will witness quite a difference in the real estate market from a financial point of view.

Notwithstanding the amount of business transacted, last week mn ahead in the number of transfers recorded over the corresponding period for the years 1893 and 1892, the actual amount of money Involved was considerably smaller. The whole number of transfers recorded at the Suffolk registry of deeds last week was 374, as against 332 for 1893 and 315 for 1892. The whole number of mortgages recorded was 163. In 1893 the number recorded for the corresponding week was 195, and in 1892 the number recorded was 131 showingkw gain of 28 over 189Z and a gain of 32 over those recorded for the same period in 1892. As as stated in these columns a few days ago, the hot weather has a tendancy to delay business to quite an extent, the amount of mortgages recorded last week being $443,062 against for the same period in 1893, and $463,323 in 1892.

As will be seen from the aboye the amount of mortgages ran behind that of 1893 $74,192, and $20,261 in 1892. The files of the Real Estate exchange show the following entries of record at the Suffolk registry of deeds for the week ending July 28, 1894: 1894. 1893. 1892. No.

of transfers 374 332 313 No. of mortgages 163 135 131 Amount of mortgages $443.062 517.254 463.323 This record, as compared with that of the previous week, is shown in the following entries: 1894 1893 1892 No. of transfers 452 350 381 No. of mortgages 186 148 165 Amt of mortgages 575.856 633.597 As will be seen from the two tables give. above, the entries of record for the week ending July 28, ran considerably behind that of the previous week and the corresponding period of 1893 and 1892.

An Important land sale was consummated in Dedham late Monday afternoon. About 10 acres of land at East Dedham, located between High St and the Readvilie branch of the Ft was sold for 36500 by its owners, John Crowley. Charles H. Riley, Patfick O'Sullivan and James Devlin, to the Chelsea pottery company. The sale is Important from the fact that the purchasers intend to remove their manufacturing plant from Chelsea to Dedham, just as soon as proper buildings can be erected and other necessary work done.

The land is especially well adapted for manufacturing purposes, being high and dry. and yet near to an abundant water supply. The railroad accommodations are of the best, and there is ample room for the building of a spur track to the buildings. Pres Arthur A. Carey of the pottery company is reported as saying that the work of removing the plant from Chelsea to Dedham will be begun Immediately.

The Introduction of the plant into the town will prove of the greatest benefit to the people. as it will furnish employment for a large number oil men and women. James Stevenson has sold the property 24 to 28 Lancaster st to Frederick C. Bowditch. The property was formerly owned by Loring W.

One Church Demolished by Chinese Mob Two Women Attacked. SAN FRANCISCO, July 31Advices from Hongkong say that it appears that the recent murderous attack upon two women missionaries at Honam was but the prelude of far more serious disturbances throughout south China. Ill teeling engendered over the treatment of plague patients in Hongkong MRS 00Z0 TATER Wife of Japanese minister at Washington. has been taken advantage of by anti foreign agitators to incite the ignorant classes of Chinese against all Europeans. Unless strong measures are adopted by foreign ministers at Pekin it is not unlikely that many lives will be lost, and the progress of foreigzx trade with China seriously interfered with.

A correspondent of the Chinese Mall writes from Tung Kun that on Wednesday, June 20, the American Presbyterian church at Sheklung was demolished by a mob, and one person killed. The Roman Catholic church there was well guarded by Chinese authorities, who had two disturbers arrested and sent to the magistrate for trial. The church at Tung Chung was reported in danger. BRITISH BLOOD IS UP. London Press Talks elf Demanding Satisfaction of Japan.

LONDON, July 81The Daily Chronicle says: If the account of the sinking of the Kow Shung be true. the proper place for the Japanese officers would not be the quarter deck, but the yardarm. England will have another demand to make for her slaughtered countrymen. Japans victory, if correctly reported, is likely to cost her very dear. There will be no ground for surprise if she hears tomorrow of decisive British.

or even European intervention. The Daily News says: The British flag story rests on Chinese authority. If it proves true it may have exceedingly awkward consequences for Japan. Doubtless China has received a very serious blow. The Japanese seem inclined to regard a declaration of war as a pure formality.

on a par with the suzerainty of Corea. The Daily Graphic says: Inasmuch as war has not been declared. it is impossible to doubt that the sinking of the Kow Shung is an outrage. for which the promptest and fullest reparation must be exacted by the earl of Kimberly. China was acting entirely within her rights.

and the owners of the Kow Shung were equally Justified in carrying troops. The Japanese seem to have acted with perfectly fiendish brutality. The British flag has been insulted and British blood spilled. Japan will have to forsake her Corean venture until she has given full satisfaction for this gratuitous outrage. The Morning Post says: We must content ourselves for the present with Sir Edward Grey's qualified statement, until the conflicting evidence be cleared by unimpeachable details.

The existing of the Kow Shung affair is of the flimsiest character, and certainly does not supply any justification of Japanese action. If it is true that the British flag was deliberately tired on before war was declared awkward complications may easily arise. INcENTrirE FOR ATTACK. Kow Shunt a Fast Vessel and Gen Von Henneken wats on Board. LONDON July 31It was stated at the office of Hugh Mathiesen Co, the owners of the Chinese troopship Kow Shung, that no telegrams have been received which absolutely confirm the report that the Kow Shung was flying the British flag when she was fired upon by the Japanese warship.

They believe it probable, however, since she was an English vessel, commanded by an English officer. War had not been declared at the time she was fired upon, and there was no reason why she should have flown the Chinese flag. If war had been declare', the contract between the owners of the vessel and the Chinese government would have ceased. The Kow Shung was the fastest vessel in eastern waters, and the Japanese were glad of the chance of depriving China of her services. The presence on board of Gen von Hanneken would also add an incentive to an attack upon the ship, as that officer was supposed to be on his way to take command of the Chinese army in Corea.

tittAY BOOM NEW ENGLAND. War Means Business for Manufacturers of Arms and Ammunition. NEW YORK, July 31Merchants in this city engaged in the China trade are undecided as to how it will be affected by the war. The principal Imports from China are teas and silks, and if the ports are closed by a blockade Importations will cease and prices will advance rapidly. There has thus far been no advances in the price of anything bectipse of the war, which tends to show that everybody believes the commerce with America will not be affected.

In the arms and ammunition trade which hails the outbreak of hostilitis anywhere, as a good thing, it is hoped that large orders for guns and cartridges may soon be placed. Most of the modern equipment of the Chinese army was made in New England, and guns and cartridges can be landed in China or Japan more quickly from New York than from any country in Europe.

One. two. three, four crisp dollar bills pay for a wbold week's tiresome work behind counters. or in some factory. Imagine it your own daughter.

It shocks one to think that lace and ribbons come so dear and human life so cheap. Trying to earn a living at this rate soon brings out all the working girl's womanly resources to keep neatly dressed, pleasant-faced and well. Few days can be spared for sickness and strength must not flag till past closing time. The best friend the working girl has ever had is Paine's celery compound. It keeps her well and full of strength and courage.

It restores vitality to tired nerves; it feeds every tissue of the body when unusual waste has reduced the weight and strength of the body. as is frequently the case in the heated season. It gives new appetite, and keeps every part of the body, nerves and blood. so well nourished that the nervous, exhausted. tired.

"run down" feeling from worry and hard work soon disappears. In headaches, the head is not alone thee offending part. The brain is the center of the great nervous system, and there is a continual communication from every part of the body to it. Hence a derangement of the stomach. liver or kidneys produces headaches, though the head be in a healthy condition.

Nervous headache. neuralgia, rheumatism and heart troubles are due to blood insufficient in quantity and lacking in richness. Worry and long hours of uninterrupted work, especially in the summer, exhaust the nervous substance as surely as walking exhausts the muscles. Toquickly furnish, a fresh and abundant supply of nutriment for every tissue of the body is the purpose for which Paine's celery compound was first prepared. This rapid production of fresh nervous energy and pure blood was the one endeavor of Prof.

Edward E. Phelps' long study of the causes of nervous exhaustion. The result of his life work was Paine's celery compound. that remarkable remedy that permanently and speedily cures diseases of the liver, kidneys and stomach. It is the greatest nerve regulator and blood purifier of this present century.

a UNDER THE ROSE. Col Thomas Porterhouse Ochiltree, having torn himself away from Saratoga for a day or two, conferred upon the hotel Waldorf the distinction of his urbane presence last evening, says a paragrapher in the New York Recorder. Over a small table and a large drink the eminent Texan discoursed upon the comparative longevity of Englishmen and Americans apropos of an article in a recent English magazine concerning the number of nonagenarians on Britain's civil and military pension lists. "We haven't yet learned how to live in this country," quoth the colonel. "In England a man gets to his business at 10, takes two or three hours for luncheon, and goes home at 4, and he leaves town almost every week of the year on Friday and doesn't get back to his oMce until Tuesday.

In America a man works 12 or 14 hours a day or seven days in the week, and thinks he's doing very well if he takes a month's vacation in summer. "And what is the result" concluded the colonel. "In America a man dies of old age at O. In England he runs away with his friend's wife at 90!" A supposed lunatic fought six No supposed about it.

I was pleased to see that the house of representatives recognized the merit of Gen Corse, the hero of Allatoona, by granting a pension to his widow. There was not a vote in opposition, and while a potent factor was the heroic story of Allatoona, equally potent was the systematic work of Congressman Michael J. McEttrick of Boston in behalf of the rr ensure.

Mr McEttrick personally urged the members to vote for the bill, explaining to each doubtful one the merits of the measure. He had prepared an eloquent speech, I am told. and sacrificed it on account of the heat and that he might get a prompt vote without debate. It is safe to say that few speakers In Congress would have sacrificed such an opportunity of delivering a carefully prepared speech when many weary hours had been devoted to the perfecting of a measure, particularly as such a speech would read well in the Congressional Record. It may truthfully be said that not everybody knows when and where to cpeak, but Mr MeEttrick does, for his intuitiveness is born of long legislative experience.

At New Castle the men were told to take their tools from the mine, as the pumps were to be taken out and the mine shut down indefinitely.

At Glenwood the managers yesterday offered the men the same conditions under which they worked at the time of the strike. A majority of the miners desired to accept the offer, but were intimidated by the agitators, and the offer was rejected. As a result the pumps will be tnken out and the mines closed down indefinitely. also elegant all-wool suits which werfl $20.00 are to be sold for $6.98. Shirt waists at 350 which ought to bring $1.25.

Mier Miller's Employes Hold Account Becks for Libor, but He Has Not Been Seen by Acquaintances Since Thursday. Mier Miller, who for some weeks baS been manufacturing clothing under contract for one of the largest firms of this city, is aUeged to have left town. and 20 or more people who have worked for him claim that he owes them sums ranging from $1 to $50.

His place of business was at 11 John ot, corner of Fulton, and for the past 21 hours those who claim they are victimS have crowded the entrance and stairway, vowing vengeance on their former employer. while on the inside the work. shop with the doors barred is Deputy' Sheriff Kelly keeping watch on the goods. The employes have threatened to take the goods for their pay, but there seems to be no danger of their doing so just at the present time. Yesterday the firm which let out the contract to Miller applied to the court for a writ of replevin.

and after the goods have been appraised this afternoon they will be taken away. It appears from the story told by the officers in charge that Miller has been backward in his payment of those whom he employed, and at the present time the greater part of the number are four or more weeks behind. As soon as one lot of goods had been finished it appears that Miller collected his pay from the firm, and, it is alleged, that instead of paying his help, he put them off, saying that he had not received payment for the work. He said that the last time he saw Miller was Thursday afternoon. At that time he was about to leave the shop when he stepped up to him and asked him to pay the bill which he had for work.

Miller responded that he had no money then, but on the following morning he would have plenty, and would then pay off the entire force. All of the men and women at work at the time came forward with the books in which they kept their accounts, and Miller placed his name at the bottom, after the total had been figured up. This was a way he had of approving the accounts. The next morning 20 or more of the employes were at the shop bright and early. The foreman came and opened his book, on which was an account for 253.

The time came when Miller should be there, but he did not put in an appearance. Noon came and he was still absent. Night also, and no Miller, but a deputy sheriff, who told the crowd his errand. It was then that the men and women realized that all they had to show for their work was their account books. Miller has not been seen by any of his acquaintances since Thursday.

"DAMON AND PYTHIAS." Two Bar Harbor Newsdealers skip Tow2 but Are Caught. BAR HARBOR, July 21For several years two young fellows locally known as "Damon and Pythias," Damon being the real name of the senior, have bad a news stand on the wharf. They were hustlers, and worked all sorts of schemes to increase business and to get Sunday papers ahead of the dealers. A. W.

Bee at length succeeded in arranging a deal with them to give up the stand to him, and he put in a man at the wharf stand. Everything was now serene, for all rivalry was between Bee and his own man. This spring Damon reappeared, bringing a new "Pythias," G. F. Sawyer, and set up business in a new stand.

Bee had him arrested for breach of contract, but Damon claimed to be an employe of Sawyer. The judge ruled that Damon could sell books, which he has continued to do. On Sunday he got Boston papers here 15 minutes ahead of Bee by sending men on bicycles to meet the paper train at Ellsworth. This morning the stand did not open. Investigation proved Damon and Pythias had skipped, leaving unpaid bills in every direction.

Sawyer hired a team at a stable, overtook Damon on the road and drove to' Ellsworth, where they were arrested this noon by sheriff Hooper, who was put on their track by the police of Bar Harbor.

Fears That He Went in Bathing and Lost His Life. MARBLEHEAD, July 31This morning as Mr O. B. Perkins and two friends were walking on the rocks back of Fort Sewall park they discovered a suit of clothes, straw hat, slices and stockings, evidently belonging to a person who had gone In bathing. From the appearance of the articles it was evident that they had been there all night.

They were taken to the police station, where an investigation proved that they were the property of Gerard Hughes of Milton, Mass. The coat was of light steel-colored alpaca, the trousers a light striped steel color and the shoes of the low Oxford tie variety. A white straw hat contained the name Hughes. Milt 3n, Mass," written in pencil in the inside of the crown. The pockets contained a silver, open-faced watch, two letters, a $1 bill and a mileage ticket from Milton to Boston.

It is thought that the owner of the clothing went in bathing last evening and was drowned.

Bad Odors from Charles River Wafted to Waltham and Newton Citizens. The mud banks of the Charles river extending from Riverside in Newton to Waltham are daily becoming a greater menace to the health of the residents along the shores ec ihe river.

Odors from weeds grow daily in volume and are wafted for miles inland. It is a common sight to see cows standing knee deep in the center of the stream. The boating of the river which at the first of the season was of such magnitude, is now of the past. No canoes or water craft of any kind venture along certain portions of the river. It is understood that if the drouth continues that the board of health, both of Newton and Waltham, will attempt to remedy the matter in some manner.

SCREENS MUST GO. Charlestown Liquor Dealers Were Visited Today by Capt White. The liquor dealers of Charlestown tad to get up and hustle this morning as a result of a visit of Capt White and liquor officer Green of division 15. Capt White goes away on a vacation the latter part of this week, and as the promulgation of the recent order from headquarters regarding the screen law necessitated some investigation into the manner in which local dealers were or were not living up to the law, he made a tour of various places located within his precinct. At nearly all of them he found it necessary to make some changes in the manner in which the windows and doors were arranged.

At Roughan's store, on the corner of Bunker Hill and Chelsea sts, several large Japanese vases, nearly four feet in bight, and a large quantity of champagne bottles piled in pyramid fashion, with several large pictures. were found to obstruct the view into the interior. These were immediately ordered out of the window. Across the way, at Doherty Bros' place, the principal obstructions were bottles of all description in the windows. These, with some rattan screen doors, were removed at once.

Mrs Moore's store, on the corner of Corey and Medford sts, was next visited, and a large office was found to obstruct the vision of those passing the windows. A similar office was found at McNamara's store, near the corner of Tremont and Chelsea sts. Both were torn down shortly after the officer's departure. Other places visited were Lavelle's, corner of Joiner and Chelsea eta: Mrs Bennett's, on Henley st, and Murphy's, corner of Water St and Charles River ay. At all of them something had to be removed.

It is probable that other stores will receive a call tomorrow, although the police have a good idea now of the arrangement of these stores, and if any changes are made they will be very slight. Those made today were the more important ones, and mean a waste of some dollars to the proprietors of the stores. The rattan doors seem to be in general use about the district, and as viany places the storekeepers have laid themselves out in an effort to make them as artistic as possible. These will all have to go. SOUTH BOSTON.

Assistant Engineer Cleaver Suspended from Bank and Duty for a Year. WASHINGTON, July 31The court martial which tried past assistant engineer Henry T. Cleave of the Raleigh.

for leaving the ship without permission, and staying away nine days sentenced him, upon his plea of guilty to be suspended for one year on furlough pay. to retain his present number during such suspension, with the conflicting provision that he should not lose more than four numbers. Acting Sec McAdoo returned the finding to the court, suggesting in effect that the court would have to specify whether the suspension be by the neck or whether only his rank and duty be suspended. He also declined to approve the finding while it contained the inconsistency regarding the numbers to be lost, and called attention to the fact that the punishment was extremely mild compared with what was inflicted upon enlisted men for similar offenses. The court modifies the sentence to suspension from rank and duty for a year on furlough pay, which is half that of waiting orders, and provided that engineer Cleaver should retain his present number for a year, in which time at least eight men will pass him by promotions.

Babies Die from Want of Proper Food Parents' Neglect Keeps up the Fearful Infant Death Rate in JulyUse Lactated Food.

I. Parents do not tin- 1 derstand how corn- pletely the lives of ia- their babies are in their own hands these hot days. Starving the babies use ilinarssh speaking of cee the loving care of I 1 i lathers and mothers. But this is what ex-BABY RUTH. act scientific men call it.

Parents must use their utmost intelligence it baby is to get safely through the summer. Cholera infantum never attacks properly nourished children. no matter how heated the season. Only the weak. drooping babies succumb to summer complaints.

At the first indication of faulty nourishment, indigestion or diarrhea the prudent mother will look at baby's diet. If she is trying to nurse baby herself through the hot Rummer she will make sure that her mi1k is capable of fully nourishing the little one. But if she finds that baby is not thriving. lactated food should be given either as an additional nutriment or for a complete diet. No less an authority than Dr Guernsey.

the senior editor of the New York Medical 'limes, says that be uses lactated food with children. He says it is pleasant to taste and easily digested and assimilated. The famous Dr Agnew. as is well-known among physicans. was on of the first to publicly recommend the food.

Dr J. Lewis Smith. perhaps the greatest authority in tee country on the diseases of children. professor in Bellevue hospital college. Nene York.

also commends its use. There are 1 hundreds of physicians in New England, gays the Boston Journal. who prescritie lactated food invariably as the nearest apvroach to healthy mother's milk. and as a rich baby food that builds up the strength and bodies of young children and invalids. Lactated food is an ideal infant nutriment.

Babies like it. They grow fat and ruddy when fed on it as an exclusive diet. It mikes the impoverished blood of puny children grow rich and capable of infixing growing bone and flesh. All fear of cholera infantum may be dismissed after baby is put on a diet of lactated food: for the essential elements of this dread compaint impurity and lackof nourishing qualities I in the foodare absolutely removed. Mothers may sleep peacefully without fear of being awaked by a feverish cry by night that may tell of some grave intestinal disorder.

Babies fed on lactated food gain steadily In weight and escape summer sickness. Mr and Mrs Charles Soutar. who li ve on Campbell at, Sandusky, O. owe their happiness to lactated food. They write: "When our baby.

Ruth. was sick there was nothing that would stay on her stomach. The doctor advised the use of lactated food. and very thankful we are. for in a short time it worked wonders.

She is now a large. healthy child. Her age is 1 year 4 months. We are convinced that if it had not been for the timely use of lactated food our baby would have died. We now have another little one that we are raising on lactated food.

we have such faith In It. and we also recommed it to All our friends." es POLICE HAVE HI8 PICTURE. Dalton Claimed by Them to be an Old. Time Pickpocket. Austin W.

Last evening, while a German band was discoursing the latest airs at the corner of Pleasant ani Washington sts, Charles E. Green of Medway came along and stopped to listen to the music.
