Glasgow, Jan. 29.—Serious rioting
oa the 1> ‘ft of tl,e railroad strikers oc
curred yesterday. A band of masked
strikers, armed with sticks and stones,
attacked and severely maltreated a
number of men who were at woik in

The " The -mldor” Riot.
Palis, Jan. 29.—After the second
performance of Sardou’s “Thermidor’
lu-t night there was a riot in the streets
near the theater, caused by the disor
derly conduct of the extreme partisans
of the revolution, who were ejected
from me theater. They his-ed the audi-

A Resolution Against Mr. Bradlaugh
Ordered Expunged From the Rec
ords.
Loncon, Jan. 28.—In the House of
Commons today Sir James Fergusson,
the Foreign office, said that he believed
that the report that Germany was try •
ing to obtain a port in the territory of
Siam was unfounded.
Mr. Henry Caplin, president of the
Board of Agriculture, replying to ques
tions on the subject, declined to state
what regulations would be enforced in
connection with the carriage of live
cattle across the Atlantic from the
United States until the committee ap
pointed to inquire into the matter bad
made its report.
Sir William Guyer Hunter, member
for Hackney, moved that the resolution
of the House of June, 1880, forbidding
Mr Charles Bradlaugh to take the oath
or to affirm be oxpugned from the
records as subversive of the rights of
electors.
The Solicitor General, Sir Edward
Clarke, Q. C., opposed the motion, say
ing that it was not in accordance with
the traditions of the House. Tne
record, he said, was historical, and
could not be effaced in this manner.
Mr. Gladstone supported the motion
to expunge the resolution from the re
cords, claiming that it was an excess of
jurisdiction in an assembly like the
House, holding almost unmeasurable
power without appeal. Excess of juris
diction, said Mr. Gladstone, was the
greatest fault such and assembly could
commit, leaving on record an error
w hich might be turned to evil account
in evil limes. To see that the House
did not trespass over the limits of its
l unctions was one of the highest and
most sacred duties. ( 'heers.) Air.
Gladstone, continuing, suggested that
the morion would be acceptable to
everybody by omitting the words “sub
versive of the rights of electors.”
The Hon. Sir Stafford Northcotc,
member for Exeter, advocated the ac
ceptance ot the suggestion made by Mr.
Gladstone.
The Hon. William nenry Smith,
First Lord of the Treasury, expressed
i he general sorrow which was telt at
the illness of Mr. Bradlaugh, and the
■notion as amended was passed. The re
sult was greeted with hearty cheers.

SECRETARY W1NDOM DEAD-
While Delivering a Speech He Drops
Dead.
New York, Jan. 29.—[Special.]—
Secretary of the Treasury Windom,
w bile delivering a speech in the chant -
bor of commerce of New York city, at
a brilliant banquet, fell to the floor and
died in Hve minutes afterward. Be

Serious Charges Made Against Sena
tor Cameron by His Enemies.
Special l>y News Telegram association.
Washing ton, Jan 29.—It looks as if
Don Cameron is going to be smirched
by the evidence given before the silver
pool inveslingconnnittee. There seems
to be no question about Don’s specula
tion in silver pending the consideration
of the free coinage bill by the senate,
and it app-ars very much like be was
shielded from the exposure until after
his re-election as senator.
Who shielded him, and for what pur
pose are open questions. His enemies
here and in Pennsylvania charge that it
was a deal between the democrats and
Don, by which his vote was secuied foi
the benefit of the closure rule. . hr
committee this morning, through Chair
man Diugley, brought in an order
ruling J. ti. vjwcuby, a much-sought
after witness, for contempt in r.ot ap
pearing to testify. This Owenby gave
the information which led up to the
pool investigation, and he is now in
Chicago, hiding. He is well known
there, and lias an unsavory reputation,
so no member of congress has been
caught in the drag net but Cameron.
The impression is that the committee of
coinage, weights and measures will not
report the senate silver bill as it comes
to them, but tbat a substitute bill will
lie reported, one that will cover the pur
chase of the silver output of the whole
continent and establish a unit of value
ar 'Ag the trial the crowds of friends

l'vas rendered there was a sound of

WINOM IS DEAD.
The Secretary of the Treasury
Drops Dead at Delmouico’s.
He Had Just Responded to the
First Toast of the Evening.
£SDAY MORNING, FEBRUARY 3, 1891.
At the Hoard of Trade Banquet He Ap-
peared In Perfect Health, but Was No-
ticed to Hurry with His Speech—Tbe
News or HU Death lu Washington—A
Brief Sketch of HU Political Life.
New York, Jan. 8a—The sudden
death of Secretary Windom at the board
of trade banquet at Delmonico’s is the
sole topic of discussion this morning. He
bad just finished responding to the “first
toast of the eve
ning, and had
sat down, when
his face became
deathly pallid,his
muse les contract
ed, his eyes were
o’erspread with
an unearthly film
and to the horror
of the festive
banquettera he
dropped oh the
floor dead. The
wiluam wmixm. ^ supposed
to have been heart disease. People
from all parts of tho banquet hall
rushed to his assistance, but his body
was already cold and the spark of life
extinct.
The banqnetters dispersed to their
homes immediately, and soon Delmon-
ico s banquet hall, which was to have
been a scene of gayety and revelry uutil
the early hours of the morning, was dark
and deserted.
Secretary Windom appeared to have
been in the best of spirits. He chatted
gaily with his friends, and the pleasant
greeting between himself and ex-Secre-
tary of State Bayard was a subject of
comment.
During the progress of the secretary’s
speech it was noted that he wi4 hurry
ing through it, and at the end he asked
that there be no applause.
A few moments later he was dead.
The news was quickly telegraphed to
President Harrison, who had to break
the news to the members of the secre
tary’s family.
The News Telegraphed to Washington.
Washington, Jan. 30.—The news of
the untimely taking off of Secretary
Windom was made known on the streets
here before 10.D0 o’clock at night
It has cast a gloom over the entire
capital.
The dead secretary was personally
popular with both Democrats and Re
publicans, and was unusually well liked
in Washington’s social firmament.
He was a progressive, public spirited
citizen, and contributed largely to all
charitable institutions.
Tho universal sentiment is sorrow,and
men of opposite political opinions are
prompt in expressions and praise for the
man’s sterling worth and ability, and of
sympathy for his bereaved family-
The bereavement in the familes of
Secretaries Blaine and Tracy are recalled,
and the remark is general that more
than the usual share of usefulness has
fallen upon the nearest friends of Presi
dent Harrison.
The senate and house both adjourned
a few moments after meeting, as a mark
of respect to the late secretary of the
treasury.
The remains of the secretary will be
brought from New York to Washington.
No definite arrangements have yet bean
made, but the funeral will take place on
Monday or Tuesday,
President and Mrs. Harrison were sit
ting quietly in their private apartments
talking of their family affairs, far from
anticipating the sad calamity. The ring
ing of the telephone ^ bell, customary as
it is, did not concern the president until
the door keeper asked him to answer it.
This unusual summous at once caused
apprehension, and the president stepped
to the instrument with a certain feeling
of anticipated trouble. As the sad tid
ings came to him over the wire, his face
suddenly lo6t all color and he dropped
the instrument, shocked beyond expres •
sion, and with a voice full of anguish he
summoned his carriage and directed the
coachman to drive with all haste to Sec
retary Wanamaker’s, where he was
aware Mrs. Windom was present at a re
ception.
The arrival of the executive at Mr.
Wanamaker’s occasioned great surprise.
The seductive music, however, quickly
turned the company’s attention, and the
gay, brilliant throng for the time being
remained in ignorance of the sad mess
age the president carried.
A moment afterward the music ceased,
the news was gently whispered about,
the merry laughter becoming hushed,
and the scene changed to one of
mourning.
The speculations as to Mr. Windom’s
successor are various. McKinley is a
probability, and Spooner, who has just
been supplanted by Col. Vilas. Another
name is mentioned. It has been known
that Harrison has been anxious to adi
vance Secretary Tracy. He may place
the New York man in Windom’s pia»e
and make Spooner secretary of the navy.
All the flags'in the citv are half-mast
ury, wa*>, of course, gratifying to a ma
jority of the citizens of Minnesota, and
especially Washingtonians, where ho lias
lived so long.
Since Mr. Windom’s acceptance of the
treasury portfolio in Harrison’s cabinet,
lie has of course lived in Washington.
His financial policy lias not been entirely
acceptable to the people of the countrv,
but his reputation as a man of ability
and financial integrity has oeen un
sullied.
The secretary leaves a wife and several
children.
Mr. Windom is popularly supposed to
have been wealthy, but those in a posi
tion to know say that a quarter of a
million would be a liberal estimate of his
possessions.
Fines at Half Bloat.
Washington, Jan. 30.—The president,
through the secretary of state, lias di
rected that all the exeoutive depart
ments be closed on the day of Secretary
Windom’s funeral, and that flags on all
public buildings throughout the country
be placed at half mast on that day.
Cause of HI* Death.
New York, Jan. 80.—Physicians and
the coroner now say that Secretary
Windom died of valvular disease of the
heart, and not apoplexy, ai was at first
supposed.

Lung Troubles, Rheumatism, Etc.
Frequently a person is supposed to
have consuintion when it is some other
disease altogether that is reducing his
flesh and makiug him look pale and
thin.
J. W, Yates, Tullahoma, TennT,
writes: ‘It does me good to praise
Botanic Blood Balm, It cured n.e of
an abscess on the lungs and asthma tbat
troubled me two years and tbat other
remedies failed to benefit.”
So you see it is sometimes well to try
con.-titutional treatment. No remedy
is so good as B. B. B. (Botanic Blood
Balm) for rebuilding wasted tissue, and
giving health to every portion of the
system reached by that great circulat
ing stream of life, the human blond.
Again, it is often supposed that colds
and evposure are the only causes of sci
atica, rheumatism, etc. Such is npr al
ways the case. It is frequently caused
by impurities m the blood.
Wm. Priee. I-uttsville, Mo., writes:
“1 was aillicted with sciatica and had
lost the use of one arm and oue leg for
nine years. I went to liot Springs and
also tried different doctors, but found
no cure until 1 tried Botanic Blood
Balm. It made me sound and well. I
am well known in this vicinity.”
Observe even when the renowned
Hot Springs failed B. B. B. brought re
lief. Remember,, no matter what blood
remedy you have tried or intend to try,
B. B. B. is the only one that will give
you complete satisfaction.
A Brief Life Sketch.

A Petition for Uniformity of Freight
Rates—The C. & M. Again—The Con
stitutlon Gets the City Printing.
Atlanta, Jan. 27.—[Special],—The
petition of the Sumter Alliance asking
for Americus the same rates on fertil
izers between that point and Savannah
and Albany has, was considered by the
Railroad Commission to-day.
It was claimed by petitioners that the
Savapuah, Americus aud Montgomery
railroad, or the Savannah and Western
road, constituted the shortest line be
tween those points.
The commission said that if the two
roads will agree upon a rate it would be
approved by the commission, but they
would not force them to make a rate.
Mr. D. C. U. Buckhalter represented
the Sumter Couuty Alliance, aud Gen-
-eral Freight Agent E. S. Goodman ap
peared for the Savannah, Americus and
Montgomery. The representatives of
the Savannah and Western—part of the
Central lallroad system—could not be

ed the East Tennessee road to build a

The commission urged the East Ten
nessee road the necessity of remodeling
the depot at Cochran. The present de
pot is inadequate to the demands of the

had been convicted of the murder of a

didn’t please some of the people of
Thomaston and a mob was formed for
the purpose of putting Jenkins ontof
the way. Jones and the sheriff learn

negro away to the woods. It was a
case of lie out all night with them, they
keeping their prisoner in an old cotton
gin until morning. Then they sent
word to the engineer where to stop for
them and finally got to Atlanta safely.
It was a lively time for them, though,
and the negro bad a close call for bis

The notification that they would not
be forthcoming this year was, therefore,
like the proverbial bolt of thunder in a
clear sky.
The meeting of the society is to
be held ' in Savannah on the
12th. It is too late to
change the place of meeting and too
late to make a change in the delegates,
to many of whom the payment of fare
would be a very heavy burden. It looks
as if the Central authorities were sim
ply trying to make a good thing of the
fact that the convention is to be held in
Savannah, and the officers of the so
ciety are in no pleasant frame of mind
over it. They are waiting now to hear
whether the other terminal' roads are
going to treat them in the same way be
fore determining finally what they will
do.

Over in the Capitol they are laughing
at a joke on General Phil Cook. One
day not long ago General Cook and
Livingston were discussing the Kansas
situation. Cook was confident that
Ingalls would be elected—so confident
that he said to Col. Livings.on “If
Ingalls is beaten I’ll apply for member,
ship in the Alliance.” Now he wants
to know if Livingston is going to hold
him to his bargain, “if he does,” says
the general, “i’ll apply, even if I’ui
blackballed.”
