A Speck of War in Europe—Attacked by Robbers—\ Talk With Cutting— The Crown Prince’s Malady—In a Masher’s Toils. A Curious Charge. Caicago, December 7.—A curious complaint against Harry L. Gilmer was made at the office of the Women’s Pro 1 fective Association today by Miss Lydia L. North, a bookkeeper. Gilmer is the grayhaired, lank, sixfooter who achieved considerable notoriety by giving startling, direct testimony against Spies and other defendants in the anarchist trial. Miss North is young, petite and has snapping black eyes. She claimed that Gilmer has been pestering her with his attentions until life has become a burden. He was continually forcing himself into her presence and endeavoring to create the impression that he and she were intimate or that she was under obligation to him. Miss North represented that she was without protection, having only recently come here from Tillsonburg, Ont., and has been ill much of the time since. Gilmer has of late been quartered in the same boarding house where she has made her home. The fact that he displays on the slightest provocation a derringer or knife h is made her cautious of offending him. Gilmer’s latest impudence, she said, was to force upon her the gift of a seal plush cloak, and before she had an opportunity to teturn it sent an officer to the house to replevy the garment. The boardinghouse mistress corroboiates Miss North.Gilmer, when seen this evening, denied the statements and claimed that the young lady had been trying to ‘‘play him.” A Talk With Cutting. St. Louis, December 7.—A. K. Cutting, whose case is again under discussion in Washington and Mexico, is at present employed here as a compositor on a weekly paper. He is an expert at his trade, and is in excellent standing with his employers. He was seen yesterday and said that he believed that Secretary Bayard’s action in the case was correct. He believed that influence had been brought to bear on the administration not to press his claim for $50, 000 indemnity. He desires to learn the position President Cleveland will take in the matter in his next message, and it it was not favorable to him he would then write a letter to Secretary Bayard reviewing all the facts in the case and giving free expression of his opinion ot the failure of the administration to support his demand. He said he knew positively that Minister Sedgwick, in his report' of the case to Secretary Bayard, h id fully endorsed the report that Consul J. H. Brigham had made to him, and that the reason why Mr. Bayard had failed to press the indemnity fund in the report made by Sedgwick was be 1 cause Wall stieet influence, which did not desire trouble with Mexico, was brought to bear on the administration. The Crown Prince’s Malady. Berlin, December 7.—The Freisinge Zeitung publishes what is alleged to be Prof. Virchow’s opinion of the Crown Prince’s malady. It is in effect that from all hitherto allowed to be known, it would be impossible for the most conscientious expert to form a decided opinion whether the growth is of a cancerous nature or not, or even whether the socalled new formation is at the old place operated upon last summer or not. The crown prince, in a letter written in a jocular spirit to an officer of the army, says he has received remedies enough to cure all his diseases. A special from San Remo says the prince was out driving yesterday and took a walk this morning. He looks strong and healthy. Candidates for Minister to Mexico. Washington, December 7.—On last Friday several of the Tennessee delegation waited upon the president and presented. to his consideration the name of Col. A. S. Colyar, the distinguished editor, lawyer and politician of Nashville, for the Mexican mission. The president stated that he would give Col. Colyar’s application full attention, but that as yet he had not taken up the question of filling the vacancy Justice Todd’s papers, signed by both the Louisiana senators and a number of lesser lights, ate on file at the state department. Attacked by Robbers. Piqua, Ohio, December 7.—A terrible tragedy occurred at a farm house two miles from this city on Monday night. Between 9 and 10 o’clock, while Mr. John H. Wolf was sitting at home with his two sisters, they were alarmed by the sound of heavy strokes on the front door . The door soon gave way and Mr. Wolf sprang to the door of the sitting room, locked it and braced himself against it just as it was again assailed in the same manner. One of his sisters ran for a loaded double barrelled shot gun and placed it in her brother’s hands just as the door yielded and revealed two masked men, the foremost ot whom leveled a revolver at Mr. Wolf The revolver and shot gun were discharged almost simultaneously. The robber’s aim missed and shattered a glass on the table. Mr. Wolf’s shot took effect and the remaining robber seized his wounded comrade and dragged him out. Mr. Wolf’s second barrel missed fire. He then bolted and barricaded the door, unable to call help and afraid to leave the house. After a terrible night, he went out.in the morning and found the dead man not twenty yards away. In the afternoon the coroner removed the mask and found a young man supposed to be a canal boatmap. A shaip butcher knife was in his possession. No clew is found to his companion. Murder and robbery were undoubtedly intended. Two Newspaper Views. Berlin, December 7.—The National Gazette, discussing the Vienna Freemdemblat’s article relative to the massing of troops on the Russian frontier, says: It is evident that the torce of Russian troops now in Poland is not sufficient to attack the two formidable military powers. The present massing of troops is too small for war and too large for peace. We must wait and see how Russia will reconcile the massing with the pacific assurances ot the Journal de St. Petersburg. The Moscow Gazette says the future policy of France will dfecide whe.her Germany will be compelled to watch one or both of her frontiers. The paper declares that Russia must always have a strong fleet in the Pacific ocean. A Speck of War. Vienna, December 7.—Prices on the bourse fell rapidly at the close last evening on continued rumors that Russian troops were being massed on the frontier. Later in the evening, Austrian and Hungarian rentes fell heavily and gold rose. The PestherLloyd says: “The situation is undeniably most serious; Russia’s attitude is so threatening that we cannot but think that war is inevitable. There is an unconfirmed rumor that Germany and Austria have sent a joint note to St. Petersburg asking Russia to explain the massing of troops on the frontiers. Regulators Killed. ■New Orleans, December 7.—A special from Lake City Miss., says: Last night a band of regulators went ta the house of the Williams brothrs, colored, it is supposed for the purpose of punishing them for misdemeanors. On arriviving at the house, they ordered the two negroes to open the door and on their refusal broke the door down, when the negroes fired upon them, killing two while men, named Ben Griffith and John McCarney. The negroes then escaped and are still at large. The World and the Message. New York, December 7.—A World editorial says: “The admirable message of the president has given to the democratic party what it h is long h eked, an issue and a leader. The issue is tariff reform; the leader is the president. It can hardly be that the president has not, at this juncture, influence enough to secure the union of the democrats in the house upon a measure of revenue reduction and tariff reform.” British Comment on the Message. London, December 7.—The Daily News says: “Seldom has an American president had a more important or comprehensive lesson to teach. The fact is that although President Cleveland makes a pretense of shutting his eyes to it, the policy of protection has been reduced to a practical and theoretical absurdity. The stone now set rolling will not stop till the idol of protection is broken to pieces. A Year From Now. Paris, December 7.—Presi ent Carnot has indicated that a general election will probably be held towards the end of 1888. New goods arriving by the car load. 50 varieties of canned fruits and vegetables. Preserves, jellies and jams in glass, wood and tin. Atmore’s Mince Meat in 5 and 18 lb. pails. New mackerel in 5 lb. tins. Fresh Imported Olive Oil and Olives. The largest stock of fine groceries ever offered in the state. Purchasing by the car load from first hands for cash and on short time enables us to offer superior inducements to parties wishing to purchase in quantity. Marshall & Heard
