decision of the commission favors the
Nicaragua project, the cost of which
is placed at about 75 per cent, of the

Gttnrd Wiildrnpo, Whom Kuraplntr Federal
Convlcti Shot, In Dead nt Fort
Leavenworth.
Leavenworth, Kan., Nov. 18. J. 13.
Wnldriipe, a guard at tho Port Leav
enworth military prison, who was
shot during the mutiny nt that insti
tution on November 7, died Saturday
of his wounds. Twenty-four surviving
mutineers now become 'liable to a
charge of murder, and If found guilty
all may receive a death sentence. Not
only this, but under tlio circum
stances, although tlio crime occurred
in the state of Kansas, it was on gov
ernment soil and therefore the mur
der is punishable by hanging nntl
trial will lie in a federal court. Had
tlio convicts shot and killed a guard
a mile went of tho stockade it would
have saved their necks, as tho crime
there would have been committed on
Kansas soil and punished under tho
laws of Kansas.
As each of the 21 of the revolting
convicts is equnlly guilty of tlte mur
der of Waldrupe, there is little ques
tion that all will bo tried and some
at least hanged, While the others can
scarcely expect less than a life sen
tence. Besides murder, tho captured
convicts are guilty of general conspir
acy, resisting arrest, assault with in
tent to kill, interfering with the Unit
ed States mails (and capturing a mail
cart), highway robbery, burglary, nil
grades of larceny, etc. It is generally
supposed that Prank Thompson, the
negro who led tho revolt, fired the
Bhot that caused Waldrupo'd death.
Thompson is one of -the 17 convicts
who have been captured since tho
outbreak.
Waldrupo was born in Greenback,
Tenn., in 1870. He served in Cuba
during the Spanish war in the United
States signal corps, later becoming a
guard at the prison. During tho
mutiny Waldrupe was stationed in a
tower on tho stockade. Tn a fight
that ensued he was shot in the hip.
He fell to the floor, but raised himself
and tired into the crowd, killing Quinn
Fort, one of the ringleaders. A mo
ment later Waldrupe, while in tho
act of firing again, was struck be
tween the eyes with a pistol bullet.
Then several convicts ran up the
tower to secure weapons. Waldrupe,
although mortally wouuded, clubbed
the first man down with his rifle, but
was too weak to further defend him
Bclf and was rescued by other guards.
KENTUCKY MINING TROUBLE.

1 mid GuardH and One Man Wiih Killed

Madisonville, Ky., Nov. 18. Mining
troubles in this district brought more

Geoi'go Crouch, another negro striker,

dence Coal company, 17 miles from
here, where an attack began at about
4:30 o'clock. The attacking party,
some 75 or 80 strong, first fired on
tho engine house and then in a few
minutes the company's stables wero
surrounded. A horse and a mulo
were killed and several other animals
disabled. By this time the guards
were becoming active and the attack
ers formed In a semi-circle over tho
brow of the hill, sending volley nfter
volley into the buildings of tho non
unionists, while the guards for their
part wero doing effective work. Tho
battle raged for almost an hour and
n half, when the assailants withdrew.
Owing to the day's riots and tho
Berious situation in tho mining field

RHEUMATISM AND THE EYES.
Chicago, 111., Nov. 18th. Mr. II. A.
Wade, the celebrated criminal lawyer
of this city, whose opinion on legal
matters is unquestioned, has recently
made public his unqualified opinion on
a matter of medicine. Mr. Wade says
that llheuniatism and Kidney Trouble
affect the eyesight, and further, that
there Is no case of the kind that can
not be cured by Dodd's Kidney Pills.
He has no fear of being set right by any
of his medical friends, for both state
ments have a living and indlsputahlo
proof in the person of the great law
yer himself, who, as a result of Rheu
matism aud Kidney Trouble, from
which he suffered for years, becamo
totally blind.
Physicians, the best in the country,
pronounced his case incurable and
hopeless, but Dodd's Kidney Pills cured
him, restored his sight, drove away
the Kidney Trouble and with it the
llheuniatism and made an allround
well man of him.
