Ib I., July 24.—The screeching of shell that proved to come from the United States steamithlp Kearsargc, and Its explosion into frag ment* that broke a small piece of stono out of the new city hall building on Broadway and cut a limb from a tree near by, caused great consternation among Newport citizens shortly after 5 o'clock this evening. Half an hour later two officers camo ashore from the ICearsargc, traced the shell to the city hall and obtained Information aa to Its passage over the city. They examined some of the pieces and pronounced the shell a one-pounder from tho Kear- safge, after which they returned with out making any explanation. Front the flagship ll Wag learned that the crew was called to quarters at 5 o'clock. The gun crews took their posi tion. pointing the guns, and went through the work of firing. A Nord- enfolt,-Maxlm automatic gun 7n th* fighting top went off when the crank was turned. Immediately all on board were alive, and the officers were mak ing hurried Inquiries. The crews In the top declared that a shot had been fired, but that It lind struck In the water Just short of the wharves. The officers were thereupon dispatched to the shore. In order to assure Rear Admiral |lllKRlnson that such was the fact. I On the wharf a scared party of fish ermen were found, who declared that rnethlng hnd passed over their heads screaming loudly. How the shot hap- nI to bo fired has not been ex plained. The matter will be thorough ly Investigated. NEW YORK, July 24.—Late this af ternoon it was suddenly discovered that several of the suspension rods of the north cable of the Brooklyn bridge were broken. The damage was small, but it caused considerable of a furore for a time. Some excited person cir culated a report that the bridge was in a dangerous state and an order to suspend traffic upon the structure was issued through the office of Commis sioner of Bridges Shea. Police reserves were called out by headquarters,* and presently the crowd of Brooklynites and other residents of Long Island which dally throng the Manhattan end of the bridge at 6 o'clock, were thrown Into much excitement. The car service was stopped altogether, as was fhe driving of all vehicles. Persona were however, allowed to walk to the Brook lyn side along the promenade. The congestion on the Manhattan side was relieved by this permission, but the Brooklyn ferries carried thousands more than they usually do. When the bridge and Brooklyn Rapid Transit Company authorities learned, how greatly the damage had been ex aggerated .traffic was partially re sumed. By 8 o’clock the bridge cars were running once more. The chief engineer of the department of bridges said tonight that tomorrow all traffic would be resumed and that the broken rods would be replaced in two or three days time. The break age. he said, was due to expansion, presumably from the heat. WASHINGTON, July 24.—Scattered thunder showers .In the northern tier of states in the central ’west today gave some relief In that locality from the intense heat. These showers which generally were light In character oc curred, in the Dakotas, Southern Min nesota, Northwestern Iowa, the ex treme northern portion of Illinois, In Minnesota and In Michigan. More of these showers over a wider area are expected by the weather .bureau to-» morrow. Their efTect, however, will only be temporary, and warm weather 1b again predicted for Friday. In the great corn belt the Intense heat still continues, and there seems to be no immediate prospect of a gen eral rain, though the fact that.show ers are becoming more general than for some days is encouraging to th* officials here, who hope they may be the forerunner .of a general break up in the Heat and drought conditions, al- riTTSHUUa. l»a., July 24.—Two nov ea, It Is reported, wero mads by the KKnssiv* officials of the American licet Steel Company today toward the risking of tho strike.

MEMBER OF CONGRESS Cured of Catarrh of the Stomach by Pe=ru=na. qO—C-HO—0-0—O-O—O-O—Q-O—O—O I All over this country arc hundreds of * * people who are suffering from catarrh. | of the stomach who are wasting pre vious time, and enduring needless suf- ! fering. The remedies they try only O temporarily palliate the distress, but A J never effect a cure. Remedies for dys- ** ' pepsia have multiplied so rapidly that, they are becoming as numerous as tho leaves of the forest, and yet dyspepsia continues to flourish in spite of them all. This is due to the fact that tho cause of dyspepsia is not recognized as cataprh. If there is a remedy In the whole range of medicinal preparations that is In every particular adapted to dyspep sia, that remedy Is Peruna. This rem- e \ cdy Is well nigh'invincible in these j cases. j Dr. Hartman, President of the Hart- j man Sanitarium. Columbus. O.. says: I “In my large practice and cocvespon- j dencc I have yet to learn of a single ! case of Atonic dyspepsia which has not | either been greatly benefited or cured j by Peruna." No one suffering with catarrh of the stomach or dyspepsia, however slight, can be well or happy. It is the cause of so many distressing symptoms that it Is a most dreaded disease. Peruna acts immediately on the seat of the trouble, the inflamed mucous mem branes lining the stomach, and a last ing cure Is effected. if you do not derive prompt and sat isfactory results from the use of Pe runa, write at once to Dr. Hartman, giving a full statement of your case, and he will be pleased to give you his valuable advice gratis. Address Dr. Hartman, President of The Hartman Sanitarium, Columbus, Ohio. 1 CONGRESSMAN R. TV. WILCOX, y Delegate to Congress from Hawaii Hon. Robert W.

Del Barrio was Arrested upon two warrants, the charges in each being similar. The checks that caused,the arrest of tho young Cuban were made by,, him May 18 of this year and madeopaya- ble to Move J. Spyers. The .checks were taken.by Spyers to Cordele where ho used them to pay debts owed there by him and received money in ex change for the difference. The checks ware mode out for $75 .each. One was united by D. Ed Kennedy, a Jeweler of Cordele. whom Spyera owed $20. The other victim was R. E. Harris, a gen eral merchant, who was owed $2 by Bpycr*. In both cans a cash differ ence was paid and Spyers left Cordele the ramo .night of the transactions. There are also two warrants out tor his arrest and the officers of Cordele art trying to locate him. Del liurrto explains the matter by raying that he and a parly of friends, one of whom was 8py«rr, were In a room several weeks ago and Ithe con versation .turned to the time when he had considerable money in bank. He remarked that he still had some checks on the Fourth National bank, and se cured several of them from h!s trunk. He .ami his friends amused themselves by filling In the checks. He signed sveral of them, one being for $1,000, and finally they handed the checks to Hpyert. Nothing more was thought of the,matter until hia arrest last night. Spyers left Atlanta a few days after ward. When the young Cuban came to At lanta It la said he had.$20,000 to estab lish a cigar and tobacco factory. Friends of the young man have raised the $150. the amount of the checks, together .with the coata currcd in making tha arrest, and will endeavor In this manner to settle the case. Del Barrio Is particularly angry toward Spyers and declares that he will prosecute him to the full extern of the law If he can be found by the officers. KANSAS CITY’S WORST DAY. KANSAS CITY.
