The Health Protective Association Meeja at Jacksonville. Key Wes’?, Fla., June 28.—There have been three new cases of fever since yester day, but no deaths. THE HEALTH PROTECTIVE ASSOCIATION. Jacksonville, Fla., June2B.—The Flor ida Health Protective Association, a body of delegates representing the counties of the State, assembled here to-day and formed a permanent organization. Its object is to es tablish a rigid coast quarantine, and when this has been accomplished, to raise all in terior quarantines. Dr. Wylly. of ( 'range eounty, President of the Association, will leave here at once for points of danger along the Atlantic and Gulf coasts, and will personally superintend the establish ment at such jiomtu of quarantine sta tions. The expenses will bo borne by the counties represented in the associa tion. Delegates from Hillsborough county, in which Tampa is situat'd, wars present, to-day, but refused to take part in the de liberations of the meeting. The association is a representative body, and it* action will go far to re-establish confidence and revive business. Birmingham’s Boom. Birmingham, Ala., June 28.—The tax "Bessmei.t just completed for this county show* an increase of values for 1857 over 1580 of more than 300 per cent* JHofnintj COLQUITT FOR SECRETARY. Many Senators Sure that Lamar Will be Made Judge. Washington, June 28. -The Southern Senators now in town having satisfied them selves that Secretary Lamar is to be placed on the Supreme bench, are now trying to ascertain who will succeed Secretary Lamar in that event. The opinion held by a ma jority Oi them is that the President will, in the event that he puts Secretary Lamar on the bench, tender the Seere taryship of the Interior to Senator Colquitt. Whether Mr. Colquitt would accept is a doubtful question with them One of them went so far as to ask Mr. Col quitt to-day whether he would accept if the portfolio was tendered to him. Mr. Colquitt l eplied that he thought that it was rather premature to discuss that question. Asa matter of fact the President had not made known his intentions in regard to the Supreme Court vacancy, and, of course, has not said anything about the Secretaryship of the Interior to anyone. MR. HAMMOND NOT TO GET IT, One thing seems certain and that is that ex-Lepresentative Hammond, of Georgia, will not be appointed to the Supreme Bench, u is stated in the local newspapers that the Georgians, realizing this, and knowing that Secretary Lamar is going to get this place, are preparing to urge Mr. Hammond for Secretary of the Interior. There is nothing in this. The Georgians have urged Mr. Hammond for a place on the Interstate Commission, for a place on the Pacific Rail way Commission and for a place on the Supreme Bench. The President has been unwilling to anpoint him to any of these places, so the Georgians will try no farther. TYING UP A DIVIDEND. Richmond and Danville Stockholders Make Trouble. New York, June 28.—Deborah, Albert E. and Nathaniel D. Powers obtained an injunction from Judge Lawrence to-day re straining the Richmond and Danville Rail road Company and Central Trust Company from paying a dividend of 3 per cent, on its stock, ordered by the directors of the company on June 9, payable on and after July 1 at. the Central Trust Company’s office, or from paj’ing any money to any person or stockholder from the assets or in come of the company on account of the dividend. President Alfred Sully, of the Rich mond and West Point” Terminal Com pany, said to-day in regard to the Rich mond and Danville induction: “The motion for an injunction against paving a dividend on the Richmond and Danville stock comes up for a hearing to-morrow. It is brought by a man holding 813,000 worth of stock, and his interest in the matter amounts to only 8900. If the injunction is granted the company will file a bond and go ahead paying the dividend.” EXPLODING POWDER. No Trace Found of One of the Three Men Killed. Wayne, N. J..

Alpena dispatches report that Sheriff Lynch, of Alpena, was badly wounded and that the desperadoes fought hard against arrest. MANHATTAN’S OWNERSHIP. Gould Said to Have Absorbod the Shares of Field. . New York, June 28.—There was much talk on “the street” this afternoon to the ef fect that Jay Gould had absorbed Cyrus IV. Field's holdings of Manhattan Elevated Railroad stock. , The reports varied widely, and the only facts obtainable were that 50,- 000 shares had been transferred and that a check for $4,500,000 for Mr. Gould’s account had been given on the Fourth National Rank. The bank officials refused to make any statement regarding the matter An operator who claims to know said that the transfer was simply the dissolution of the pool of 150,000 shares, equitably divided between Messrs. Sage. Gould and Field. Killed by a Crazy Man.

A SAD SCENE IN THE FIRE-SWEPT TOWN OF MARSHFIELD. Moat of the 2,000 Homeless Inhabi tants Spend the Night Under Impro vised Coverings Near the Sites of Their Smoking Homes The Loss Over $1,000,000. Milwaukee, June 28.—The latest ac counts of the Marshfield fire come from neighboring towns whose hospitality has been thrown open to the 2,000 homeless in habitants. But few availed themselves of it howover,mostof the people being housed for the night in wagons, rudely constructed sheds, blankets and such household furni ture piled up as was saved. The scenes last night were pitiable. A Year led men and de pressed women spent the night watching the remnants of their homes and possess ions promiscuously scattered round in the surrounding woods, which were lit up by the glow that camo from the still burning mass that covered acres and represented a thriv ing village. So rapid was the spread of the fire that little could be saved. Frantic men and women used vehicles of every descrip tion to save goods when the fire reached the residence part of the town. Messages have been recei zed t hat the people are but scantily provided with provision*, and there will be suffering until aid is dispatched. THE LOSS OVER A MILLION. A special to the Evening Wisconsin from Marshfield says: “It is impossible to get at the exact figures of the losses and insurance by yesterday’s fire. The loss will exceed $1,000,000, and the total insurance will reach 8300,000. “The burned district embraces eight blocks, bounded as follows: A street on the north, Fourth street on the south, Maple street on the east, and Chestnut street on the west. “The Upham Manufacturing Company lost their saw mill, lumber yard, flour mill, elevator, 15,000 bushels of grain, 1,000 bar rels of flour, planing mill and furniture factory. Their loss is 8:250,000. “Sauger, Rockwell & Cos., of Milwaukee, are heavy losers, having an entire season’s cut of fine lumber destroyed. “Aid in the shape of provisions and cloth ing is being received at Marshfield. There are not enough roofs left standing to shelter the homeless, and the people are camping in the fields and woods.” THE LOSS OVER $3,000,000. Milwaukee, June 28, 11 p. m. —lt is now estimated that the loss resulting from the destruction of the city of Marshfield will not be less than $8,000,000 and may be $8,500,- 000. The heaviest loser is the Upham Manu facturing Company, whose loss is approxi mated at SBOO,OOO. Sauger, Rockwell & Cos., of Milwaukee, lose $45,000, representing a whole season's cut of timber. The Tremont Hotel Company lose $28,000. Mayor A. J. Upham loses on his store and stock $50,000. The Marshfield Bank loses SI,OOO. There are about 1,000 losers, the amounts varying from SSOO to SIO,OOO. Twelve solid blocks of stores were de stroyed. A dispatch to-night says that that the fire burned until an early hour this morning and that but one house remains unscathed. THE PEOPLE SUFFERING. Half the population is still there, but is suffering for want of clothing. Supplies were sent from neighboring towns that answered the purpose temporarily, but Mayor Upham telegraphs that more pro visions must be sent at once or the people will suffer. It appears that when the fire started there was a nigh wind and the flames were car ried with remarkable rapidity, seeming almost to leap from house to house. Twelve buildings were blown up with dynamite in a vain effort to check the flames. Conductor Grayson, who brought the through sleeper from St. Paul on tne Cen tral line this morning, said that the only thing to be seen at Marshfield from where the depot used to stand was one house and an expanse of blackened ruins, with here and there the remnants of smoke stacks and some warped and twisted machinery to show where a mill had stood. the people leaving. Ho describes the sceno as one of awful desolation, hardly relieved by the presence of human beings, as everybody had left, or was leaving as last as possible. Yesterday afternoon most of the well-to do people left for Chippewa Falls, and this morning two carloads of homeless working people were brought as far as Stevens’ Point, the railway company carrying them free. Conductor Grayson described them as a sorry-looking crowd, with nothing but the clothes they happened to ha ve on at the time of the fire. Some of them had no hate. There was hardly a woman who had any kind of wrap or shawl, they being merely clothed in their ordinary dresses and sun bonnets, while the children were even worse off, being barefooted, bareheaded and hun gry. Tho Central road has repaired its track so that trains can run right through again. Last night a special train had to be sent up and passengers from above walked around the burned town to come through. HEAVY LOSSES AT HURLEY. A special from Hurley says: Fire broke out in one end of Silver street, the principal thoroughfare of the city, about 10 o’clock this morning, and at noon four or five blocks of business buildings had been swept away. The Burton House escaped. The loss is estimated at $700,000. an opera house burned. Jacksonville, 111., June 28.—A de structive fire oocunvd here last night, origi nating in Wright’s furniture store, next to Htrawn’s Opera House, involving a loss of $125,000.

Th i“**\oreß under neath were also deHtroyedjff7®y were Mc- Donnell’s wall paiier storjßr!*tock valued at S7,IKK): Jackson’s miq^Sstore, and Van Welch’s drug store.J j The insurance is not otjfiMKle. STARTED BY A CIGARETTE. Washington, June 28.—The brick ware house of William Galt & Cos. was burned to-day with 600 tons of hay and 1,200 haiTels of flour. The loss in between $20,000 and $35,000. and it is fully covered by in surance. A boy with a lighted cigarette is credited with starting the fire. Killed in a Mine. Chicago, June 28.—Four Englishmen, named William Kellow, William Pengilly, .lames Vanderslyus and Paul Ilastaing, were instantly killed in a mine at Norway, Midi., this morning. They were coming out of the mine in a cage. Home men above allowed the train car to get away, and as it went thundering down the ahaft it struck the cage. Kellow is a single man, aged I*. The others leave widows and large families. Norfolk and Western’# Earnings. Philadelphia, June 28.— Tho statement of the Norfolk and Western Railroad Com pany for May shows net earnings of $117,- ,30, an Increase of $29,386 compared vviih the same month last year. For the five months ot 1887. the net earning* were $606,407, an increase of $125,716 as compared with the corrcspendinz period of last year. ROWAN COUNTY’S ROWDIES. Another Outbreak by the Tollivers Apparently Inevitable. Louisville, Ky., June 28.—1 tis reported from Catlettsburgh that the Tolliver faction of Rowan county are reorganizing, and the people in that section of the State are ex pecting another outbreak at Morehead. Two cousins of Craig Tolliver passed through Catlettsburgjyesterday. They said they were from Lawrence county ana were going to Morehead, but would not say what they purposed to do there. It is supposed by some that these two men wore Calvin Tolliver and Andrew Tolliver, who were with Craig Tolliver when Sheriff Hoggs’ posse attacked them, but mode their escape. marshaling their forces. A citizens meeting, it is reported, will be held at Morehead Wednesdny and the Tolli ver gang, who are recovering from the shock of Craig’s death, will try to get con trol of it.

They are expect®, with friends from Montgomery and Menifee countios, to meet the Mannins at Morehead Wednesday. If this programme is carried out there will be more bloodshed. A WOMAN FREES CONVICTS. Entering Jail She Gives Her Husband a Revolver and Helps Him Escape. St. Paul, June 28.—The Pioneer Presa has news from Black Fork, Idaho, of a jail delivery there last night. Henry Nickerson, in for horse stealing, was-fnrnished with a revolver by his wife who has boon visiting him daily. With the revolver Nickerson held up the guard, who had accompanied his wife to the cell. The pair disarmed the guard and locked him in a cell. They then liberated Aleck Woods, a negro wife mur derer, and one Williams, also convicted of murder, both sentence 1 to hang July 12, and another horse thief, and lock ing up the rest of the watchmen, the en tire party escaped to the outside, where horses were awaiting them. Woods, weigh ing 250 pounds, would not trust to this course, and took to the brush on foot The others fled on horseback. The Sheriff, re turning an hour later, organize! a posse and soon recaptured Woods, hut was still in pur suit of the others at last accounts. As the criminals are armed a desperate fight is likely. CHICAGO’S ANARCHISTS. Rumors that the Supreme Court Has Decided to Grant ft New Trial. Chicago, June 28.—The Daily Ncivs says: “A rumor that the Supreme Court has decided to give the condemned An archists anew trial was put into circulation to-day. The intelligence was to the effect that a majority of the judges sitting on the Supreme bench had decided in favor of the points submitted by Capt. Black and Leon ard Swett, why the sentence pro nounced by Judge Gary on the Hay market assassin should not be executed at least before another hearing was allowed the condemned. The origin of the rumor, so far rs it could be traced, ap peared to be in tho civil courts in the county building, and early this afternoon the rumor that the Anarchists were indeed to have anew trial was common talk among lawyers. From these it was learned that the report stated that the Supreme Court Judges had already dictated their opinion, and tftat the deelara tion that this opinion was favorable to the Anarchists came from court official* who had access to the document*. The story as it circulated this afternoon occasioned a sensation in and about the county building.” A CYCLONE IN LOUISIANA. Eight Lives Known to Have Been Lost in the Blow. Long View, La., June 28.—One of the most destructive storms ever known, occur red last night twenty miles below here, and carried death and destruction in its eourso. At Now Prospect, a neighboring town twenty miles south of here, five were killed outright. At Fair Play, a small hamlet, one woman and two children were killed, having taken shelter in an old hotfse, on which a very long tree fell, crushing them. In the track of this tornado nothing was left. The county is thinly settled, which accounts for the few lives lost. As there is no telegraphic commnmcation, hut, little can lie learno® at this time. A heavy wind and rain storm is raging now. r Richmond’s Monument to Lee. Richmond, Va., June 28.—The Monument Board, of which the Governor is rhairmnn, to-day awarded a contract for tiie erection of ah equestrian statue of Gen. Robert E. Leo to the eminent sculptor. M.

June 28. —An excava tion for a pile for the South Hhore railroad bridge, three miles from here, caved in this morning, crushing six men to death- LABOR'S CONSTITUTION. THE KNIGHTS VOTE IN FAVOR OF THE NEW RULES. Three-Quarters of tho Vote Polled in Favor of the Change—Half of the Negative Vote Cast by Gormans Who Opposed the Anti-Liquor Clause. Philadelphia, June 28.—8 y returns made to the general headquarters of the Knights of Labor this morning the new constitution of the order, embodying many important changes, has been adopted by at least a throe-fourths vote. The clause pro viding for tho formation of national trade assemblies, sent out separately from the constitution and voted upon by the local as semblies throughout the order, has also boon adopted by Dearly the same vote. The new constitution will be promulgated by the General Executive Board in a very few days and will go into effect immediately after its promulgation. THE PROHIBITION CLAUSE. An analysis of the vote shows that, nearly one-half of the local assemblies that opposed the adoption of the new constitution did so oil account of section 325, which roads: "No local or other assembly or member shall di rectly or indirectly give, sell or have any ale, beer or intoxicating liquors of any kind at any meeting, party, sociable, ball, picnic or entertainment whatever appertaining to the order. Any member found guilty of violating this law shall be suspended for not loss than six months or expelled. No flue shall he im posed for this offense. Any local or other assembly so offending shall be suspended during the plwpuire of the General Execu tive Board, or shall have its charter revoked by said board.” Nearly every assembly composed solely of Germans, voted against this clause and therefore against the whole. A CO-OPERATION FUND. The article on co-operation was adapted unanimously. It is quite lengthy and pro vides for ttie creation and disbursement of a fund to aid co-operative enterprises. Each local assembly is required to collect and de posit a sum of not leas than 2c. per month for every member in good standing. The money is to tie invested by the co-operative board and the profits are to be divided equally between the general assembly, co operative fund and the workmen who create the profit. The new constitution gives tho General Executive Board full power to settle all strikes and disputes, whether sanctioned by the board or not, and it increases the powers of the general board in many other par ticulars. the basis of represf.ntation. Hereafter each district, State, national or unattached local assembly shall lie entitled to one delegate to each '3,000 memtiers or majority fraction thereof. The term of office, over which there has liean no much controversy, has been fixed at two years. Compensation hereafter w ill be fixed by the General Assembly when an officer is elected. The national trade assemblies clause is probably the most important of the changes. It provides that “any particular trade or calling may form a national trade assembly by giving at least three months notice to each local assembly—the entire member ship of which is composed of such trade — to attend a convention for the purpose of forming a national trade assembly.” At least two-thirds of the local assemblies must vote in favor of tho trade assembly, and not less than ten assemblies, if there lie tliat number iu the order, may receive a charter. Section 3 of the article is not very strong, however, as it will leave the matter in the hands of the general executive lioard, which, if the law ha* lieen complied with, may instruct the General Secretary to issue a charter. The votes will lie received until July 15, and recorded, although the new constitution will be in effect some time be fore that, probably about July 1. Rochester’s Strike. Rochester, N. Y., June 88. —Many rioters are now under arrest. They art' all Meckienbergors, Bohemians and Italians. The strike is confined wholly to laborers of these nationalities. All is quiet today. There has been no interference with the men who desire to work. The police are vigilant and trustworthy. The wounded officers are doing well. The wounded strikers are receiving medical aid, but one is likely to die. The contractors say they can get plenty of non-union laborers. Strikers Evicted.

Woonsocket, R. 1., June 28.—Three large cotton mills at Manville have shut down indefinitely on account of the weavers' strike, and the, mill officials have notified all their former employe* to quit the company’s tenements.

New York, June 38.— Thirty-two day* of a trial such as Jacob Sharp has under gone in tho very heat of the summer at hit time of life is an ordeal that cannot be safely passed. Yet has this old man with all his manifold physical ailments borne up bravely under it. He was no weaker than usual when he caine into conrt this morning, nor did he appear to be any bet tor than usual, though he said to a reporter that the effect of Dr. Ijoomis’ prescription of yesterday was to niAkehim sleop better than he had at any time since his committment to jail. Dr. Dayton, of the Senate clerical force was ready to testify with reference to tho general surface railroad bill of 1883. A BID FOR THE FRANCHISE. John M. Scribner, of the law firm of Rob inson, Scribner & Bright, Sharp’s legal ad visers, was placed upon the stand, but his testimony presented no strong point. Abraham M.

At the beginning of the trial it was Sharp's expressed determination to take the stand in his own defense. He explained to his counsel how ho would answer and ex plain all seeming deficiencies in his exami nation liefore tho Senate committee. He went so far as to avow he would rather be convicted than permit the statements of the witnesses! for tue prosecution to go uncon tradicted by him. WRITING HIS RTATKMENT. Everything was arranged that Sharp should testify. From the Beginning of the trial until the night that Judge Barrett or dered his committal to Ludlow street jail Hliarp spent several hours every day alter the adjournment of court in perfecting the statement which he would make to the jury. From the time he was confined in jail he has failed, and yesterday afternoon when his counsel told hint to prepare to take the stand they found to their horror that Hharp was a physical wreck, and that even mentally lie was not in fit condition to be a witness. It U the opinion of Hharp’s physi cians that ho cannot live longer than ten days or two weeks. Tho slightest excite ment will cause death, owing to the condi tion of his heart. In the next few days hit business affairs will he wound up. •TRYING TO STOP THE TRIAL. A scheme is under consideration by those interested in Sharp’s case which, if carried out successfully, will take tho case out of tho jurisdiction of the jury to-morrow liefore tho lawyers liave a eliance to display their powers of oratory in Humming up. It has lieon suggested that certificate* from Hitch eminent physicians as Prof, l/xmiis and his associates that Hharp would in all probability drop dead in the court room when the jury brought in their ver dict if the case should he given them, no matter whether the verdict lie guilty or not guilty, would result in Judge Barrett’* stopping the trial just where it is. In any event, his advocates are sincerely of the opinion, after listening to the advice of the doctors, that Hliarp will never live to go to Hing Hing. Hheriff Grant was so fearful this afternoon that Hharp would die in Lud low street jail that he kept him in his pri vate office for two hours after the court had adjourned. . SPEED AT BHEEPSHEAD.
