10. Carl Strabl made a confession to the officers who took him from here last night, the purport of which is, that ho first 6hot and killed Henry Goetz, some distance -from his home, then went to the house and killed Mrs. Goetz. Took Goetz's mules and wagons, robbed the houses and premises of everything of any value, and eta rted for St. Louis.

When this was made known this morning about 100 citizens determined to lynch the fiend. They compelled him to show where had secreted the body of Goetz, then they took him to the woods and suspended him to a tree. Robbery seems to have been the murderer's motive. Latest from EI Paae The Lerdelst Bnay la' Intrigue and Censplraclea They Even A be and In Diaz's Army Treable Imminent at El Paae The War Rampant la Texas Distribution ef U. S.

Treeps en the Frontier St. Louis, Nov. 11. Late advices from El Paso say: It is now believed there were a number of emissaries of Lerdo in the band of Mexicans which crossed the Rio Grande two weeks ago and had a fight with Indians on Texas soil, while ostensibly following Indians. There seems doubts that the real object of these Lerdoists is to stir up a new revolution if possible, and overthrow Diaz.

This band of Mexicans have not left yet, and are intriguing and doing everything in their power to precipitate war between the United States and the Diaz Government, in the hope of overthrowing the latter, and again obtaining power for themselves. It is said Lerdo's agents are very active all along the Rio Grande, and are also plotting within the army of Diaz. Gen. Hibbard, of Texas, returned to Ans-tin yesterday to consult Gen. Ord and Gen.

Bteel, of the State forces, regarding the vresent state of affairs on the frontier. Major Jones, of the Texas Battalion at El Paso, telegraphs the Governor that immediate trouble is apprehended, and the Governor has been solicited by a number of persons, especially militia officers, to precipitate the conflict if the Federal Government will not. The United States troops on the Rio Grande are distributed as follows: Fort Brown, 700; Ringgold, five companies Fort Mcintosh, one company; Fort Ducan, four companies; Fort Clark, near Eagle Pass, five companies 2000 Texas militia, under Brig. Gen. Jas.

Noiv. 10. On Thursday the miners employed at Keet's mine under Contractor Coulee took forcible possession of the mine, on account of con-payment of wages by contractors. Miners are still in possession of the mine, having resisted the Sheriff successfully and refused a com promise oi any emu, except a mil and complete settlement of their claims. They are securely fortified, well armed and provisioned to stand a month's seige.

The citizens of Central City, near which the mine is located, are in sympthy with the miners. It is feared blood will be shed before settlement. At 6 o'clock to-night the miners issued a printed circular invoking public sympathy in their behalf, and explaining their position, which is briefly that the contractor pw es them 2500 for labor which he will not pay them for, and they hold the mine for the same.

New York, Nov. 11. Arrived: Gen. Letter from Chicago. The Chicago Phlleaophleal Society and Its Members The Noble Charity Be qaeathed te the City by Allen C.

Lewis. Chicago, Nov. 1877. Dear Pie. Chicago believes in many things.

In fact it is sublimely Orthodox in its laith in the unseen, as' for instance it3 own future growth, greatness and glory. It is a part of it3 business and social creed that it will continue to double it3 trade, commerce, wealth and population that it.i capacity lor dealing in lumber, grain and pork is unlimited, and but we never speak of it its possibilities, under existing laws, of Bending savings banks into space is infinite. Yet right in the midst of all of this simple, unquestioning childlike faith which pervade3 the very air we breathe, and builds us up, blood and bone, there is a society, the Alpha and Omega, of whose creed is I dont believe." It makes but little difference upon what they are called to exercise their belief. They always have it handy; they don't believe on feneral principles. It is enough for them to now that a post is said to be painted white, and they will immediately undertake to prove, first, that it is not painted white second, that it is not painted at all, and third, that there is no post any way.

Yet this society, that delights to pierce soap bubbles to see their pretty painted sides vanish merely to prove that there is nothing within, consists of wise and amiable people. It is known as the Chicago Philosophical Society, and numbers among its members, names that are eminent in professional and business circles. On Saturday evenings I usually attend their meetings in a mild endeavor to find out what they are trying to do. The efforts does not always meet with the success its honesty merits, but then it leaves the mind in that negative condition which is favorable to almost any positive influence. I must confess that I am always very delightfully entertained, although I am sometimes reminded of the man who was bo wonderous wise he lumped into a bramble bush and scratched out both his eyes," and how he regained these useTul organs in "another bush." It Is rather a singular fact that- this society of philosophers is the outgrowth of a church literary society, and that its founder is an eminent Methodist preacher.

Happening to be in the office of Dr. N. W. Abbott, one of the eminent members of the society, the other day, he told me how it happened. About four years ago the Rev.

Dr. H. W. Thomas called at this same office to discuss a ehurch literary society of broader and more scholarly views than are usually entertained by organizations of that ilk. Here it was suggested that the society should be modeled after the London Philosophical, which has been in existence for over two hundred years.

After much discussion the plan was decided feasible and came before the church full Hedged. Of course, the brothers and sisters did not receive it without protest, and serious disturbances were threatened, but the Rev. Doctor stood firm and maintained his position both in the church and in the society, having ardent adherents in both parties, and to-day isperhaps the most influential man in the Chicago pulpit. The Rev. Joseph Haven, author of a Mental Philosophy and of several other equally well known works, was the first president.

Dr. H. W.Thomas succeeded him. Then Judge Henry Booth occupied the position for two years and at fTt Gen' B- Buford, of Kentucky, holds the place. The General is a very courteous gentleman, and under his discipline the philosophers agree to disagree in a most manner.

Gen, J. N. Stiles and Sir. W. Lla are distinguished members.

Looking about the room, on Saturday evening. I saw that a large proportion of the assembly were gray headed men, yet there were many exceptions, perhaps the most notable was that of C. M. Hertig. This young lawyer is an efficient worker and his large and varied reading makes him something of an oracle One of the features of the society is the place it assigns to women, according them all its privileges, both as lecturers and as critics.

Mrs. Helen 8. Shedd is one of its earliest and most valued members, and to her energy, sound sense and perseverance much of its success is due. Mrs. E.

R. Sunderland is a practical talker on subjects of education. Mrs. Celia P. Wooley is a bright little lady, a well known correspondent of a Boston literary journal but there are too many to go through the roll call, in short, when we speak of a philosopher in Chicago, we are quite as apt to refer to a person in petticoats as to one in pants.

Last year the star lecture of the season was by Mrs. Amahe John Hathaway. Altogether, the Chicago Philosophical is a society to be proud of, in regards to its management, its members, and the work that it carries on. But while the world thinks it knows its great men, some quiet man, who has moved about among his fellows unostentatiously dies and becomes famous. A little more than a week ago the name of Allen C.

Lewis was unknown except to a circle of personal friends and acquaintances. Now it is a name that we all delight to honor. He was a man of considerable wealth, the estimated value of his propertv being considerably more than half a million of dollars. But what of that We have had our andcrbilts, Stewarts and Astors, who brought nothing int Ithis world, but who gained Immense eFiJtes and who died without any apparent ihoWt of voov, neglected, suflenng hu-maiity. But Mr.

Jwis did not belong to that class of rich men. He left about to various asylums for widows and orphans, he also left several thousand to frieaidsand relatives, but the bulk of his fortune was left in trust to establish and maintain a thorough Polytechnic Sohoc-Th property held fer this purpose now amounts to about it is to be held until it accumulates to 800,000. The school is to be free and open to both sexes, and it is the special wish of the testator that it shall le so conducted that girls shaJl be taught the means of gaining an in-depe tident livelihood. A man who leaves to the world such a noble legacy as this has built his own most enduring monument. To who know the need there is that new avqqnes of paid labor should be opened to tins benefaction seems peculiarly grand and significant.

I have myself seen so many women who looked upon the world in hopeless despair that I cannot wonder that (many of them have alien into degrade tion und vice. It is not merely that such an avenue as this school proposes to onen will enable women to be sell-supporting, but it will leo deeper down and teach her what not one woman in a thousand seeuis to know, how to le self-reliant. Then? is one feature of tliiswill which is peculiarly worthy of notif and that is that it will probably not le contested. Our papers are so tilled with accounts of great estates in litigatiou that we have grown to expect that any one who has any tie of kindred to a rich man will put in a claim to his property. I therefore considered it rather the key to the simplicity of the family character when I chanced to hear Mr.

II. F. Lewis, the only remaining brother, say that he was perfectly satisfied with the will, he had euongh, and was glad his brother bad made such a charitable disposition of his property, I could not wonder that a man who knew he had enough should have a pleasant, fresh face, almost boyish, in spite of his gray hairs. Mr. Allen Lewis had lived at the Tremont House for several years; for two years he had been con dued to his room, yet he made many warm personal friends, and when he passed away and out of the portals of that great caravansary there were many who missed him, even among the crowd of guests, and for several days his name was oitencst upon the lips even of transient comers.

Drift. How the Silver Bill Passed. Cincinnati Gazette. Washington, Nov. 7 The curious, or rather disgraceful, discovery has been made that the silver bill, as passed, was brought before the House by a trick, and passed under false pretenses.

But for the fraud, perpetrated, it could not have been brought before the House at all. The facts are these Mr. Bland had the floor for his own bill, which was "quite different the oue the Committee on Banking had agreed upon, in that it did not contain the committee's provision for free coinage. Mr. Blaud, having the floor for his own bill, after conference with silver men who were opposed to his bill, agreed to quietly substitute their bill for his own and force it through.

Theu Sir. Bland took the floor and played this trick. Several asked whether the bill he was presenting provided for freo coinage. Kelley ana others, who were in the secret, protested vehemently against debate, thus preventing the answering of any questions. So this bill was forced on the House by stealth, and was passed under suspension of the rules.

Speaker Randall did not ascertain how the privileges of the floor had been abused till his return from Pennsylvania. Had Mr. Buckner, chairman of the Banking and Currency Committee, been present to-day Sir. Raudall would have called attention to the matter. It is quite probable that he may go so far as to claim that the House should recall the bill from the Senate, rescind its action, and leave Bland where he was, with his own bill in order before the House on next Monday.

As the casenow stands the journal ot the House does not show that any such bill as that actually voted on was either before the House or passed. The men who were parties to this trick to remonetize silver have been prominent in circulating the false charge that it was demonetized by a trick in 1873. Recent Events in the Samoan Islands. Acsresaive Policy of, the German and BritUh Cenaals The Ialandera Deal reas ef American Pretectlen The Oat-rage en the United States Cenanl. San Francisco, Nov.

8. The schooner Isabel, from Apia, Navigator's Island, brought among her SIcCloub Maniet, Secretary of State of Samoa, en route for Washington, to arrange a treaty whereby the 8a moan may be placed under the protection of the United States Government. It represented by the passengers of the Isabel German and British Consuls, residents on the who have been administering affairs with so high a hand that the natives can no longer staud the oppression. One of -the passengers has in his possession a copy of a proclamation of the British Consul levying $30,009 on the natives. Since this proclamation was issued other fines amounting to more have been levied, equal to a tax of $5 on each male adult.

It is represented that the sentiment of the natives is almost unanimously in favor of some connection with the United States. The Bulletin this evening publishes the following editorially concerning recent events in Samoa: On the 21st of September an armed band of, men headed by an Englishman named Hunt, made a forcible entrance into the American consulate at Apia leader Of the band ordered Mr. Griffith, American Consul, to vacate the premises, and on his refusing, placed a revolver to his head and caused him to be thrust Into the street. Hunt gave the archives of the con suite into thp custody of Capt. Wright, an American.

The life of the Consul was threatened by Hunt if the former raised the consular flag. Three or foar days after this occurred a French gunboat arrived. Consul Griffith appealed to Capt. Dubar, of the Signelay, for protection of both the French and American and an armed escort was sent on shore to arrest the assailants, but the parties had not been found at the latest advices. The United States Consul remained on board the French Bhip until the day before her sailing for this port.

Ai request was then sent to the native authorities for protection to the American flag, and a favorable answer having been received, with the promise of an armed guard for his protection, Sir. Griffith went ashore with the American and French flags unfurled. No further indignities were offered, but it was understood that the Consul would change his residence for greater protection to the native capital. Store particular accounts of these proceedings have been forwarded to Washington." Reports from Pittsburg announce an almost unprecedented increase in the freight traffic passing that point. So great is the volume of freights that the roads find difficulty in moving it, and all of them are compelled to borrow cars to meet the demands made upon them.

This is especially true of the Pennsylvania, Pittsburg ana Fort W'ayne and Chicago, and Pan Handle Railroads, and the Pittsburg division of the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad. iA distressing accident occurred at Pickering, tNodaway county. whereby John Florea, son of George Florea, aged twenty-five years, lost his life. It appears that he took down a gun that had not been used for some time, and put the muzzle to his mouth and, placing his foot on the hammer, blew iifto ft to ascertain whether it was loaded, when his foot slipped off the hammer an a the gun was discharged, the ball passing through his head. I The wedding dress of Maria de las Mercedes, future Queen of Spain, has already been ordered, and the feminine portion of the world will doubtless call it beautiful.

It it to be of white satin, entirely covered with Alencon point lace, on which will he worked the arms of all the realms into-which Spain was formerly divided. This recalls the dress of Queen Adelaide, of England, which was a pretty piece of imagination it was embroidered with flowers, the initials of which formed her name. A remarkable relic, resembling the ancient Sphynx, in miniature, has been dug up at Canajobarie, N. and is on exhibition at Utica. The image is described as being a peculiar piece of stone, evidently cut or fashioned many hundreds of years ago.
