crush them out of existence. It is impossi-
Ne*to learnof the position and movements
of the insurgent army, though naturally
there are many rumors afloat in connection
'with them. There was to -day a report to
the effect that they had made a demonstra-
tion ag.ainet Santiago and that he capitol
had fallen into their hands. This is not
true ; however, the report that they he
.. •v'
the hills above the race course
-at Mina Del Mar is ranch more probable.
It is not improbable, also, that they had re-
ceived some accession of strength since they
fought their way down the coast from Quin-
teroBay, as there is no question the revolu-
tion has many sympathizers in the Province
of Valparaiso.
It is not regarded as within the range of
possibilities that the .insurgents will make
an attack on the Government forces for a
while yet, at all events. While the move-
ments of the rebele is a good deal a matter
of conjecture, there is no doubt
that President Balmaceda has lost
no time in strengthening' his position.
Reinforcements have been constantly arriv-
ing until now he has within reach fu fly
20,000 men. He has established a long
line of defence, reaching from Vina Del Mar
to Placilla, and which it would be almost
impossible for the forces at the command of
G•en. Canto to break through. Confidence is
gradually returning in Valparaiso in conse-
quence of the strength and disposition of • the
Government forces, and some of thebusiness
houses were opened to -day for the first time
since the appearance of the invading army.
The Government army is much better
equipped than- the enemy, so far as cavalry
is concerned, and Balmaceda is kept pretty
well informed of the movements of the
solids by the cavalry corps, which is almost
Constantly on the move. The stories that
the troops in Balmaceda's army are disloyal
and mutinous are, so far as I can ascertain,
without foundation. •'

vent any demonstration on the part of the
insurgent cruisers. In this they have so far
been successful
From the condition of affairs here and the•
movements of troops it generally believed
to -day tliat President Balmaceda has alriiost
prepared himself for a decisive move, and
that possibly to•morrow, and almost cer-
tainly within two days, he will attack the
revolutionist army in force and endeavor to
end the war, so far as it can be done, by a
victory or defeat in front of Valparaiso.

FAMILY WIPED OUT:
4. Now York Lunatic Rills His Wife, Two
Cltlldrea and Himself.
A New York despatch says : Tenants in
the four-story tenement house, No. 321 East
106th'street, last night heard pistol shots in
• the apartments occupied by a family named
Baxter, on the third floor. - No one, how-
ever, sought • to learn what' the shooting
• meant until 10 o'clock this morning, when
it was noticed that none of the Baxters had
been Peen. Neighbors knocked at their
• door, but there was no answer, and Police-
man Lawlor forced in the door, and there
found John Baxter, a painter, 35 years old,
his wife Mary, aged 28 years, and their
children, Katie, 6 yearsand John, 4 years'
old, all lying dead -with bullet holes in
their heads: Beside the body of . the hus-
band and father lay a bulldog 32 -calibre
revolver, with four cartridges discharged.
It is supposed he killed his wife and chil-
dren and then shot himself. On a table was
a letter written by him to his mother, in
which he told of his intention to kill his
-family and himself. '
Baxter was probably insane. No other
motive for the horrible crime is known.

RUSSIA'S" RYE UKASE
eirinti to Enrich a Few
Dealers.
A Moscow cable says : The Moscow Town
Council is debating a proposal to compel
all employers to supply their workmen with
rye bread at the normal price or about one-
half of the present price. • Men experienced
in the grain trade beleive.the rye ukaee,will
only serve to enrich a few dealers who are
holding grain•inorder to sell it at famine
prices. . •
• A St. Petersburg cable says : Indications
of distress among the peasants, are becoming
numerous. The German colonists along the
Volga, who have hitherto been prosperous
farmers, are now in great distress. 'Riots
among the people to prevent the exportation
of rye are reported at Vitebesk, Dunaborg
and other places. .
' Proved of His Beard.
A Berlin cable says : The Emperor has
ordered dealers in photographs not to sell
portraits representing him as he appeared
without a beard. All the lithographers,
copper -plate and steel engravers are busy
issuing new platen to show the Emperor as
he now appears, with a beard, and the
painters on glass and porcelain and the
workers in leather and wood imagery are
overrun with orders for 'representations of
the Kaisel' in the - new style.
The railroads of the United States em-
ploy 700,000 men. Each year they lose
2,000 of their number in killed, and 20,000
of them are injured annually. It is esti-

A New York despatch says : The village
of Lomas do Zamora, near Banfield Station,
in Colombia, is the scene of a startling
series of crimes. It consists in the dis-
covery of a series of murders, beginning in

"salting in the death of ten sons and daugh-
ters and three grandchildren. The author
of these 'crimes is Murciano Medina, and his
wife, Pauling Benavides, and his daughter,
Remigia, have been the . accessories, if not
the accomplices, in several of the murders.
Since 1871 Murciano Medina has lived on
a ranch'near Lomas de Zamora. He has a
family consisting of a wife, six sons and one
years old. Medina is employed among
the corrals of Lomas, and is ceonsidered a
good worker among the men of his class at
election times,
THE DISCOVERY.
The discovery of the crimes of this man
was due indirectly to the action of Remigia
in leaving her father's home to elope with
her lover. On. July 18th Medina called upon
the police commissary' of de Zamora, or
Valdo Guerl, and requested that his run-
away daughter be apprehended. At the
very moment of this • conference a police
agent, Pedro Mirandi, called the commis-
sary aside, and said that he had just come
from a ranch near Lomas'de Zamor, where
in the course, ot comments which had been
made upon the elopementof Remigia, it had
been charged thatRemigiahad killedseveral
of her children and buried them on their
ranch. After hearing' this the commissary
returned to Medina- and, • without arous-
ing. his suspicion, dismissed him with the
promise that everything possible would be
done to secure the arrest of his daughter.
The commissioner next visited the ranch,
where the story of the Medina crimes were
told to him. "On the following day Remigia
was fond hiding on a ranch near the
village, and was brought before the _police
authorities of Lomas de Zamora. She
declaredthat she had left her home on
account of fearful treatment at the hands
of her parents. Under close questioning,
Remigiar admitted that her father had mur-
dered several of her children. She said that
some of the bodies Of those who had been
killed shortly after birth were butted in the
house,."_while_some..•-were-buried-iir-a-n aid
barn in an outlaying part bf the ranch. On
the evidence Medina and his wife were
arrested. They at first denied the charges,
and then made a partial confession, entang-
ling themselves in a maze of falsehoods, and

ng eight years Medina seems to have
oned his murderous actions, and .five

whom are still living.
GItANDCIIILDREN MURDERED.
Two' others born after these, however,
were killed by Medina. • Twins born to'the
couple died under su'spiciou9 circumstances,

their bodies three days after death to the -
public cemetery in cart, not being able to
go to the expense a public funeral, and
that the sexton buried the children. The
commissary, however, has, been unable to
find any mention of such an interment in the
recortls of the cemetery, and it is suspected
that the twins were also foully dealt with.
The list of'Medina's crimes was not re-
stricted to his offspring, but included the
murder of three sons of his unmarried
daughter, Remigia. The first, born
in 1889, and the second, born' in
the year 1890, were beaten to
death by their grandfather. They were
buried on a . In Deeember, 1890,
Remigia gave birth hto a second son. When
it was two days old Medina one evening
ordered Remigia ,down tothe kitchen.
While she was absent he killed the baby.
Remigia and her mother helped Medina to
bury the child under the kitchen.
The discovery of hese crimes has caused thirds
intense excitement in Lomas de Zamora and th
the adjacent towns. Excavations made ogn

A. STRANGE DUEL.
Teamsters Lash Each Other Terribly with
Long Bull Whips.
A Chillicothe, 0., despatch says : A
teamster for a saw mill company, which
operates. in the bottom lancla„.near -here,
brings a report of a queer duel. For some
time there has been bad blood between
James Stevens and William Graham. The
trouble originally arose , over the relative
Merits of • the two men as oxen drivers or
`c bull punchers,,'. each claiming to be the
best in the section. The matter was kept
within the bounds of a wordy war until last
Sunday, when it was decided to settle the
matter by a fight with bull whips. The
are dangerous weapons in the hands
expert. They have a total length of
15 feet, -and when well handled the wielder
can take a strip of hide. from the flank of a
bullo3k at every pop. The preliminaries
were all arranged, . and the men were
given plenty of room in which to circu-
late. There were noseconds, and the
understanding was that the men ;should
fight until one cried " enough." The
empley_Qe_anf the mill-ranged-theneselvei ui"
a circle about 100 feet in diameter, and the
men were told to go in and fight. ' They
approached to within fifteen feet of each
other and then halted. Then both began •
circling the long whips over their heads,
waiting' for an opportunity to. -give -a cut.
Grahain was first to try, but his blow was.
dodged by Stevens, who also sent his lash
wide of its mark. This was repeated several
times, when Stevens sent his lash directly
at the handle of Graham's whip, and by a
quick twist tore it from his grasp. Graham
quickly recovered 'his weapon, but not
before Stevens gave him two fearful lashes,
one drawing the blood from his back and
the other tearing a strip out of his' trousers
leg. The pain so enraged Graham 'that he -
made a savage onslaught on Stevens,
cutting .him twice, once across the face.
Stevens, kept his temper ,• and again caught
Graham's whip, but before the latter could
recover it he was whipped about the head
and face until he was completely blinded
and at the mercy of his antagonist, wlio
lashed him almost into insensibility before
he cried for mercy.

A St. Peterslurg despatch says Details
of the rioting at Vitekesk, capital of, the

dence that a general revolt of the peasantry
had been planned.. The peasants attacked
the railroad officialsdemanding no more
rye should leave Vitekesk,, and severely
beat the Jewish grain dealers, who are
blamed for the whole trouble. The peas-
antry also plundered the residences of these
grain dealers, and finally attacked the rail-
road station. The miliary -was then sum-
