believe Seorctary Bayard says that he does not
that any international com plica
tions could result from the conviction
of Cinlo Rouble by the Cuban authorities,
Rouble was a Cuban who returned to
hat island immediately after obtaining
ns naturalization papers, and was tlT*
rested for insurrectionary conduct during
ic administration of I resident Arthur.
His case had been diligently watched
under the direction of tho Department
of Slate by the United States Consul
General to Cuba, he had excellent eoun

was to see that he obtained justice under

REVENUE COLLECTIONS.
Collections from internal revenue dur¬
ing July and August, aggregated $20,
030,030, an increase of $1,007,280 as
compared with the first two months of
the last fiscal year. Receipts in detail
were: From spirits, $10,271,312, increase
$108,034; tobacco, $3,739,138, increase
$041,818; increase fermented liquors, $4,812,693,
$400,390; oleomargarine, $83,-
880, and miscellaneous $23,004, decrease
$17,475. The only sources of revenue
taxation showing a decrease were special
taxes on rectifiers, wholesale and retail
liquor dealers, manufacturers of cigars,
retail dealers in leaf tobacco, brewers’
special tax, stamps for distilled spirits
lor export and penalties. That cigarette
smoking by is not on the wane is evidenced
the fact that the tax »Tf fifty cents per
thousand collected on these articles dur
ing the months $109,144,‘an ol July and August
amounted to increase of
$39,259 as compared with the tax col
tected in the same months of 1880.

was forfeited by reason of his flight. Re¬
cently he was located in Mill Bank,Dak.,

THREATENED REVOLUTION.
Amtrchista Thrrntcn Heath to nil Con¬
cerned in Tlicir Comrn(It's’ Conviction.
The Cooper Union, in New York City, j
wits packed with such a crowd of anarch- !
ists at d socialists as the famous meeting
room i e.’er before contained. The audi¬
ence numbered fully 3,300, and assem¬
bled to protest against the hanging of the
condemned Chicago Anarchists. Tho
ushers, wearing red ribbons on their j
breasts, handed every person who eu
tered the hall a copy of a proclamation, I
of which following are extracts: “Amcr
ican workers: to be flung Will in you face? suffer Will this out- j j
rage your you
remain silent and allow that so-called
justice shall ho defiled in so bloody a
manner—a dastardly deed, alleged to be
sanctioned by the will of the, people?
It must never be. Arise iu your impos¬
ing might and let your righteous wrath
fab •leads in an u*. ’’■.takaob. interpr(k«>8 f» ’ st upon the
of these of the law,
who have basely betrayed their trusts.
The workingmen of America must show
that their lovo of justice and their hatred
• f tyranny iu this shameless form has
iiot been destroyed. If you wish to do
so, you can prevent the consummation, on
November 11th, of this horrible deed to
which the deeds of cannibals are as
nothing. is The judgment of blood
not yet executed. Let every man
do his best and it never will be.”
The anarchist gathering had brought out
;t detachment of police. There were fifty
scattered about the hall to watch the
crowd, and the wild notes of the “Mur—i
seiliaise” were struck up by the band and
prolonged wild cheers followed. Pic¬
tures of the doomed martyrs of the red
Ihtg looked down from the front of the
platform. They were draped with red
and black and wreathed with smilax. A
black and red banner stood in the rear of
the stages. On the platform were Herr
Most, Walter Vroannn, Col. Richardson
Pinton, of the Leader, Mrs. Black, Mrs.
Biandisch and two hundred others. Herr
Most was the chief speaker. During his
speech he said: “Do they think
we allow are going to remain quiet and
our friends to die an ig¬
nominious death? You cannot allow that
hanging to take place. Arm yourselves,
and for every drop of blood that is shed
from our friends, let it costa human life.
I am not alone an anarchist, but also a
revolutionist. Capitalists shall be the
first to suffer. No one shall escape his
just dues. The twelve jurors, the judges
and detective spies will not sleep very
soundly at present. Let them beware.”
[Wild yells and cheers from the crowd.]
Anarchists, we have no respect for these
laws by which our brothers die. As revo¬
lutionists, we arc fearless. The time is
approaching when we will be forced to
use firearms. After Most had concluded
his speech Editor Shevich, of the Leader,
made an address,and then Airs. ® Brandese.t
and Col. Hinton followed.
SENSATIONAL ARREST.
An Escaped Negro Convict ( hargeil Willi
tlie Murder of The Woolfolk Family.
Jack Debose, a negro of suspicious looks
and demeanor, had been arrested bv AV.
A. Kitchen, the sheriff of Cherokee
county, Ga., and was held as an escaped
convict, who, it is claimed, is the mur¬
derer of the AVoolfolk family, and for
which Tom Woolfolk is in jail at Atlanta,
Gft. A\ r hile confined in jail the negro
said enough to warrant the sheriff in noti¬
fying Air. AValker that he was of the
opinion that the tragedy, negro was concerned in
the AVoolfolk and Mr. AValker
came up and had a talk with the negro,
and now expresses himself as feeling pc r
fectly satisfied, almost beyond a doubt,
that the negro arrested and in jait j.s the
real murderer of the AY’oolfolk family, or
rather that he is concerned in the whole¬
sale killing. Since Air. AValker took hold
of the case he has, by consultation with
many aud visiting the scene of the mur¬
der, and remaining in the ncighbothood
as a tramp painter, learned that four ne¬
groes did the killing, or rather that one
did the killing and the other three were
accessories, and robbed the house while
the killing was being done. The names
of these negroes be also obtained in con¬
versation with the negro confined in jail.
The negro admitted knowing who did it.
and would promised to tell Air. AValker if he
promise succeeded to help him outright, but
finally in inducing the negro
to tell him who the three others were
that w’ere associated with him in
the killing. These names agree per
feetly withthose previously lcurn
ed hy Walker from other sources, and
while in the vicinity of the killing. (Vi
onel Walker is satisfied and fe« Is ver»
confident that the negro is the party who
held the ax, nnd did the killing, and ex
peefs to prove these facts beyond any
doubt whatever. He is greatly rejoiced
over what he has heard thus far and will
have another talk with the negro
when he hopes to learn much
moreofdirect interest and especial im¬
portance to himself and client. Certain
it is that this negro knows enough to im¬
plicate others besides Tom AVoolfolk as
the murderer of the AVoolfolk family,
whether he implicates himself or clears
Tom Woolfolk of it or not; at least
this is Air. Walker's honest opinion.
CHINESE WICKEDNESS.
The Chinese consulate at San Francisco,
Cal., has found good evidence that a Chi¬
nese syndicate existed iu Chinatown foi
furnishing straw bondsman to get women
into this country. An unusual number
of women have been admitted lately at
that port on bonds, and over a score are
now waiting to get through in the same
manner. These women are young and
good looking, and are sold to wealthy
