ST. LOUIS CARNIVAL
SPECIAL ATTRACTIONS FOR
‘THE ENTERTAINMENT OF
THE CROWDS.
Ilia Exposition Hoi.Hu* • Uniquely
Rucceeaful Klntli ('on..entire Season—
Traveling Men to Cauveno Octo
ber 1.
St. Louis, Sept. 15.—The attendance
In St. Louis to-dav 1* remarkably large,
the immense number of people having
come in from all directions to witness
the fifth of the series of twelve grand
illuminations which are making the
city fumous this fall throughout the
entire continent. Owing to the enor
mous work in getting the 75,000 electric
and gas lights into proper condition
for a perfect illumination, to-night is
really the first night in which it has
been possible to light tip each one of
the 75,000, and successful as the earlier
illuminations were, the effect to-night
far exceeds them.
The carnival is now at its height
and the Exposition is proving a won
derful success, the attendance during
the first week showing an increase of
over 25 per cent. Gilmore with his
strengthened band of 100 pieces is do
ing magnificent work, and so popular
n re his concerts that many who obtain
■od seats to hear them remain seated
•icing the hours of intermission in
order to retain their scats for the next
concert. The Exposition generally is
very fine, and the scenes in the aisles
and galleries call forth expressions of
admiration from visitors from all parts
of America. A large number of spe
cial nights at the Exposition are an
nounced, and on Oct. 1st the Travelers’
Protective Association will take charge
of the program. Special trains will be
run from ihicago, Terre Haute,
Peoria, Kansas City, Memphis
and other points, and a number
of the visiting delegations will be
accompanied by strong local bands. It !
is estimated that about 3,000 traveling j
men will arrive in St. Louis on the I
morning of the 1st and they will at '
once be taken charge of by the presi- I
dent of the National association, who '
resides in St. Louis, aided by a strong
local committee. Carriages will be
provided for the delegates, who will be
hospitably entertained until the even
ing, when they will give a unique en
tertainment at the Exposition building.
The oration of the day will be deliv
ered by Mr. W. C. P. lJreckinridge of
Arkansas, with speeches by the gov
ernors of Missouri, Illinois, Indiana
and other States.
The day promises to be one of the
most interesting of the entire forty
days of the festivities, and during the
afternoon the Veiled Prophet will ar
rive in the city by boat. He will be
received by the National Guards of
Missouri, who will tender him a mili
tary reception, and who will subse
quently head the parade of the travel
ing men.
The Veiled Prophet’s parade and ball
will take place on Tuesday, October
4, on the evening of which day there
will be a grand street' illumination
with all the electrical panorama in full
work. On Thursday, October 6, the
great day of the St Louis Fair there
will be another illumination, and these
two days promise to be the most suc
cessful and brilliant of the carnival.
The Fair lusts the entire week, open
ing October 3 and closing October 8,
and the program includes a large num
ber qf very important and very inter
esting novelties. The concluding j
illuminations will be on October 13 to
October 20.
ItKWAltU FUR TRAIN ROBBERS.
Bcoraa of Man Start for tha Monntalus
to Avenge tha Slala Detectives.
San Francisco, Cal., Sept. 16.—The
110,000 reward lor Train Robbers Evans
and Sontag has been doubled and the
Governor was asked to declare them
outlaws. The coroner of Fresno county
held an inquest over the bodies of
Wilson and McQinness. Two hundred
pieces of shot were found in Wilson's
body and half that number in the
corpse of the other detective. Sheriff
Kay and Deputy Sheriff Gillam have
not been heard from and another posse
has left for the mountains. Many
special detectives employed by the
Southern Pacific are also on the trail
of the men. “Vic” Wilson, who was
killed, was one of the best known
detectives in the company’s erqploy
and the men say the murderers had
far better commit suicide than be
caught. Senator Wilson was the mur
dered man’s brother.
W orking on tbe Hennepin Canal.
Davenport, la., Sep*. 14—Last
Friday the first preparatory stone
work for the guard lock of the Hen

foundation being finished the corner
stone of the first concrete monolith of
that lock, three miles above the mouth,
was laid. Captain Wheeler, engineer
in charge officiated, the event being
very quiet. The government force
numbers over 100 men. They are
quarrying stone for the locks and em
bankments and doing other prelimi
nary work. A. J. Whitney has a
dredge boat at work at the mouth •!
the canal, where he is working on the
Mississippi guard lock. The contrac

the excavation of the main prism of
the canal for three miles, and the con
struction of embankments where the
level of the land is low. Work will

near the work. It is now expected
that the right-of-way acros* th<
Rock [lipnd and Peoria track* will b<
arranged. No other contest of thii
kind i* pending and the work hence

OVER FIFTY INJURED.
Strange Accidents Happen In Columbu
O.. During n Celebration.
Columbus, Ohio, Sept. 17.—Over BO,
080 people attended the fair yesterday
and last night the city was overrui
and the streets crowded in every direc
j tioh for squares about the capitol t<
I witness the display of fireworks whirl
I had been provided by the citizens
| Several people were more or less seri
ously injured by falling piece:
! of rockets and taken to their home:
| before their names or extent of thei:
| injuries could be learned. Immediate
I ly after the close of the fireworks i
j great crowd was congregated on Iligl
| street near the capijol. In front o:
| the Neil house a miniature freal
named James Leach of Fairfieli
county was giving vocal imitations o:
| various animals and a crowd wedgec
about him. A section of pavement gav<
> way and over fifty persons were pre
: cipitated in the excavation below, t
( distance of about ten feet. It created
a panic, so that the work of removing
the injured was slowly accomplished.
They were sent to their homes and tc
the hospitals as fast as rescued. It had
not been discovered at 10 o'clock that
any one had received fatal injuries.
Leach, the freak, who attracted the
crowds, is probably the worst injured
of any who were precipitated into the
cellar way. His limbs are broken and
it is thought he cannot recover.
WASHINGTON IN GOOD CONDITION.
Ho Fear of Cholera During the Grand
Army Kncmnpmcut.
Washington, Sept. 17.—The fact
that Washington will have within its
borders next week more than 100,000
strangers from nil parts of the country
has caused some fear that if the cholera
gets into Washington from New York
they might carry it away with them.
The Treasury department is seriously
considering the question of imposing
restrictions upon rialroad traffic
into Washington by way oof New
York city should there be any
further cases of cholera reported in
Gotham. The authorities appreciate
the danger that if by any lack of
caution on their part a case of cholera
should be introduced here during the
encampment it might perhaps be
widely distributed from this city to
other parts of the United States. There
were several rumors flying about the
city to the effect that two cases of
cholera had been discovered in the
city. At the health office Dr. Ham
mond said he had received no reports
of such cases and he hardly believed
they were correct.
ARMY OF THE CUMBERLAND.
Veterans Neglect the Society Meeting

Chickamauga, Tenn., Sept. 17.—The

o’clock. Gen. Rosccrans presided at
the first meeting of the society. Only
a small number of veterans of the
500 in attendance were at the
meeting, a majority having gone out to
the battlefield. The meeting was quiet,
the work being almost wholly routine
Reports from the work on the National
park were presented and approved.
Out on the battlefields the veter
ans looked up the locations of
their various commands, all sorts of
wagons and hacks being employed to
convey the throng to the national park
and grounds. In point of numbers the
reunion has not been a success, but the
affair seems to be thoroughly enjoyed
by all who are here.

NEARING THE GRAVE
SEKIOU* ILLMISsn OF THE WIFE
OF THE PIIEMDEXT.
OT*r Condition Kilremflf Critical—A
Complication of Pltcurt Ibat Defy
•Medical »ktll.
Loon Lakk House. X. Y. Sept 15.—
Dr*. Gardner of Washing-ton. Dough
1 erty of New York and Trudean of Sa
ranac had a consultation at the presi
deni's cottage yesterday morning in
regard to Mrs. Harrison, ana at its
close issued the following statement:
The primary disease is pulmonary
tuberculosis of the right side, associ
ated with nervous prostration. The
recent complication is sub-acute pieu
isy, with a rapid effusion of water in
the right chest. necessitating two tap
pings, with some relief. The present
condition is critical on account of a
tendency to a reproductiou of iluid.
Removal to Washington is impossible.
Prognostication as to the immediate
future is uncertain.
Lieutenant Parker said this morn
ing: ••The presidentwiii remain with
Mrs. Harrison till she gets better.
He has no other plans whatever.”
it is therefore apparent that the
president's stay here is indefinite. The
physicians, it is said, have quietly in
timated to the president that there is
a strong probability of a fatal result.
The president rarely leaves Mrs. Har
rison's bod-side. In fact, he really
shares the nursing of the invalid with
a professional attendant. Russeli Har
rison and Mrs. .McKee, the president's
son and daughter, are also in con
stant attendance. It is understood
that another operation will be per
formed this afternoon.
WASHINGTON. D. C., Sept. lo.—
News from Loon Lake was awaited
with the deepest concern in Washing
ton after the pubiication this morning
of the disquieting statement of Mrs.
Harrison’s condition, contained in the
Associated press dispatches from
there, but few persons were prepared
for the alarming news in the physi
cians’ bulletin made public this after
noon. On every side were to be beard
expressions of the deepest sympathy
with the afflicted lady ana a gloomy
feeling was manifested throughout
the official circles.
Mrs Harrison has endeared herself
to the people of Washington through
her many loveable traits, so that they
are more than ordinarily interested in
her welfare.
The best that can be said of Mrs.
Harrison’s condition at this hour is
that it is no worse than it was this
morning when the bulletin was issued.
She rested quietly during the day and
had several short naps, which failed,
however, to refresh her to any notice
able extent. She seems to suffer
principally from exhaustion. Her
physicians see to it that she has as
much relief as possible from physi
cal pain and employ every known
method to cheer he up. It is gratify
ing that no more unfavorable symp
toms manifest themselves to-day.
All the patient's friends now realize
that any complication is attended with
the greatest danger. Mrs. Harrison’s
vitality is at a very low ebb and can
not successfully resist further inroads.
She has been confined to her bed since
last Wednesday, and has gradually de
clined in strength. This condition is
partly due to the two operations ren
dered necessary by the accumulation
of fluid in the chest cavity. The first
operation took place on Friday last
and the second on Monday of this
week. It is feared that still another
will be necessary in a day or two.
These operations, however, afford only
temporary relief. They are usually
followed by a sense of exhaustion and
depression. Mrs. Harrison has stood
them both very well, and this has
been one of the few favorable features
of the case during the past week.
To Fight the Cholera.
Washington, Sept. 16.— Surgeon
General Hamilton’s office was crowd*
id yesterday afternoon with noted
lanitarians from various parts of the
sountry who had come at his invita
tion to discuss measures of compre
hensive sanitation throughout the
country in case the cholera should
get a start. Among them were Dr.
J. M. McCormick. health officer
of Kentucky; Dr. Henry B. Baker,
secretary of the Michigan Board of
Health; Dr. Irving H. Watson of the
New Hampshire Health department
and Dr. Peter H. Boyce of Toroto, one
of the health officials of Canada, These
gentlemen and others present coming I
here are appointed as a Quarantine
commission at the national conference
of state boards of Health. The meet- !
ing with the surgeon general will last
for a day or two.
Today the situation at New York
and along the northern border was
discussed and an examination of the
federal and stale laws bearing on san
itation wasmade. The assembled doc
tors are agreed that there is no occa
sion for alarm or a scare as the cases
in New York are sporadic. One of
the doctors who desired his name with
held said he thought the cholera cases
in New York were due to careless
handling the refuse and pursings from
the post-ships. 1 his had been thrown
overboard iustcad of burned, and the
tide had carried it in and deposited it
at the New York wharves. He cited
the fact that McAvoy and others who
had died from cholera lived near these
wharves. •
Condition of .Sirs. Harrison.
Loon Lake, N. Y. Sept. 16.—Con
trary to expectation. Dr. Doughty, the
New York specialist, made another
call on Mrs. Harrison yesterday after
noon. He arrived at the Loon Lake
railway station, three miles from the
village, about 5 o'clock on his way to
New York and was joined by Dr. Gard
ner, the attending physician. J
latter informed him that there J
nothing in Mr*. Harrison's coodij
that necessitated any delay in his J
turn to his professional duties, ft,
of course, if he could spare the u,
the family would appro re of vi*t
from him. Thereupon he did deci,
to call on Mra Harrison and to ^
the train in the morning. The t,
doctors then drove to the president
cottage and made an examination ,
Mrs. Harrison. Dr. Dougherty agr*
entirely with Dr. Gardner's diaenos
of the case, and subsequently inform,
the family that he saw no appreciate
difference in Mrs. Harrisan's coni
tion since bis former observatio.
There was no further accumulation,
fluid on the chest, and the quantii
there Vas not sufficient to requii
withdrawal. He said she was as cog
fortable as she could be made, i,
| that it was encouraging to Know tin
the disease had made no progress wiij
in the last iwenty-fou-r hours. T„
