BODY DESTROYED IN BRUSH FIRE MOB SAID TO BE ORGANIZING WITH INTENTION OF LYNCH- ING THE PRISONER. Appleton, Wis., Oct. 9.—Wenzel E Kabat of Green Bay, according to Dis- trict Attorney Krugmeer, will shortly be charged with one of the worst crimes in the history of this sectien of Wisconsin—the murder of Michael McCarty, a Kaukauna farmer, to gain possession of the wealthy man’s big estate, and the burning of the body in a brush fire at a lonely spot on the McCarty farm to hide evidence of the alleged deed. The sheriff has received warning tbat farmers are organized at Kau- kauna to lynch Kabat when he comes to that tawn for a hearing or even be- tfore. McCarty disappeared about two weeks ago and later Kabat visited the farm, having an alleged bill of sale of McCarty’s farm. He was arrested pending an investigation and is still Leld. FURIOUS CLASS RUSH. 8everal Students Seriously Injured at Wisconsin University. Madison, Wis.,, Oct. 9.—More than 600 students were thrown into Lake Mendota, two were perhaps fatally in- Jjured in midair fighting for a class flag and upwards of forty minor cas- ualties were sustained in the annual freshman-sophomore class rush of the University of Wisconsin, the most furious in the history of the institu- tion. The sophomore class banner was bung from a telephone pole and a squad of the class leaders was set to guard it. The efforts of the freshmen were directéd to the captare of this irophy. Several of them climbed up two parallel guy wires to the cross- arms of the pole, where they met the defenders, and a fierce battle took place. North, a sophomore, was pulled from his place on the telephone pole and fell to the ground, a distance of twenty-five feet. Roy Stephenson, a sophomore, was struck on the head with an iron pole and has been delitious ever since. | Dr. Walter Sheldon says the prospects for his recovery are poor. The same doctor attended a student with a broken leg, but his friends have suc- ceeded in Kkeeping the name secret. TRIPLE MURDER REVEALED. Fourth Victim Unconscious and Not Expected to Recover. i Middlgtown, N. Y., Oct. 9.—A triple| murder was revealed here during the day when the bodies of Willis and Fred Olney were found in the wocds half a mile from their home, at which was found the murdered body of Alice Ingerick. Both brothers had been shot. Before night the crime is ex- vected to number one more victim, Mrs. Georgia Ingerick, mother of the girl Alice. The mother, who was found unconscious in the barn of the Olney brothers’ farm, has not re- gained consciousness and was said by physicians to be dying with three] fractures in her skull. As soon as daylight permitted a search to be made for Fred and Willis Olney, who were missing from their| home when Mrs. Ingerick was found unconscious and her daughter mur- dered, wagon tracks leading across two fields to a woods near the house were seen by the searchers. The| tracks were fresh. Just beyond them in the woods were found the bodies of Fred and Willis, each lying in the| same position on their backs with one arm across the breast. All the pockets in their clothing had been turned in- side out. Marks in the underbrush | showed that the bodies had been dragged from the wagon to the place | where they were found. RUSSIAN RAILWAY DISASTER. | Twenty-seven Killed and Thirty-five | Injured. | Rostoff-on-Don, Russia, Oct. 9.—A? mail train bound for Vladikavkaz left | the rails during the day and was| wrecked.

Tndianapolis, Oct. 9.—The. conven- | tion of the German-American National | alliance has adopted the report of the | committee on personal liberty which | protested against prohibitive legisla- tion against the liquor traffic. The re-establishment of the army canteef | was urged. o i the MAY SPREAD TO OTHER CITIES. Strike Movemernt at Moscow Causing Uneasiness. St. Petersburg, Oct. 9.—The strike movement at Moscow is'causing un- easiness among the authorities here not only on account of the threaten- ing nature of the demonstrations at Moscow but also owing to the proba- bility of their extending to St. Peters- burg and other cities and starting a wave of labor troubles similar to that which followed in the wake of the January disorders. The press dis- patches report that a gendarme, an officer and a policeman have been killed by the Moscow mob. There is a strong strike sentiment among the St. Petersburg printers and revolu- tionary proclamations are being dis- tributed among the workmen declar- ing that the Moscow events are the tocsin for another phase of the revolu: tion. Moscow, Oct. 9.—The strike here has spread to the bakers. There is only sufficient white bread to last twao days. The large crowds of strikers in the streets are assuming a threat ening attitude. The employes of the street railroads, who have joined the strike, have rendered many of the cars useless. Hughes May Decline Nomination. New York, Oct. 9.—Charles E. Hughes, principal counsel for the com- mittee of the legislature to investigate Insurance affairs, has been unanimous- ly nominated as the candidate for mayor of New York by the Republican city convention in Carnegie hall. Mr Hughes may decide not to accept the nomination. TWO BLOCKS SWEPT GLEAR NEW YORK CITY FIREMEN HAVE HARD STRUGGLE SUBDUING FIERCE BLAZE. New York, Oct. 9.—Two city blocks burned over, fifteen business estab- lishments destroyed, hundreds of tene- ment dwellers forced to flee for safety from their flame-threatened homes, one fireman injured, a watch- man burned, 250 fear-crazed horses roaming through crowded streets for more than an hour and a desperate three-hour struggle with the flames were the results of a fire which threat- ened destruction to a large portion of the upper East Side water front short- ly after midnight. The loss was $100,000. Starting in a ragpicker’s shop in One Hundred and Eighth street the flames gained momentum so quickly that within a few minutes it was nec- essary to turn in four alarms and Ltwenty-five engine companies, a fire- boat and half a dozen towboats were rushing to the scene to combat with flames, which were sweeping southward. The block between One Hundred and Eighth and One Hun- dred and Seventh streets, composed of small buildings, was swept within a few minutes and flying embers had ignited the big lumber yards of J. Reber’s Sons & Co. From the lumber vards the fire threatened the entire district. The coal yard of Mever Bros., which was in the path of the flames, was swept by them. In the rear of the vards was a stable where 250 horses were quartered... They were turned loose by the police and firemen and for more than an hour the frightened animals rushed through the crowded streets, : Throughout the fire the wind, veer- ing around to the north, carried great showers of sparks southward, seme as far as Ninetieth street. These fell on the roofs of the tenements in their course and kept the occupants thereof in alarm for hours. E It was three hours after the fire started when the firemen controlled it. The change in the wind enabled the firemen to save from damage the line of three, four and five-story build- ings on the east side of First avenue between One Hundred and Eighth and One Hundred. and Seventh streets. HUSBAND' AND WIFE Former Wounded and Latter Killed in Battle With Pistols. New York, Oct. 8.—Denton H.

He was arrested and charged with’ mur- der. ? 5 The wife’s name was Jessie S. Hop- kins. Miss Jennie Bruyn, Hopkins’ sister, who witnessed the duel, said that the conduct of the two indicated that they had agreed to shoot egfi-‘ other on sight. Hopkins afterwards declared that his wife fired the first hot. He said she was always nagging him about money and that he had re- fused to give her as much as she de- manded. s IN DUEL. LONG GONTEST ENDED GAYNOR. AND GREENE FINALLY LEAVE FOR UNITED STA+ES TO STAND TRIAL. | SPENT SEVERAL YEARS IN CANADA BITTERLY FOUGHT EVERY STEP TAKEN TO SECURE THEIR EXTRADITION. Montreal, Oct. 9.—The last chapter, as far as Canada is concerned, in the celebrated Gaynor. and ‘Greene . case, was closed during the day when the two men left the Bonaventure station of the Grand Trunk railway on a Dela- ware and Hudson train for the United States. A large crowd of people was present to see them off, but the most notable thing about the departure was the large number of United States secret service men who were around. They were in charge of W. J. Flynn, head of the secret service bureau of New York. On behalf of the Dominion govern- ment Silas H. Carpenter, chief of the Montreal detective force, who Kkid- napped the two men from Quebec, and Inspector McMahon went with the party as far as Rouses Point, N. Y., the boundary line being between Rouses Point and Lacolle, Can. ‘When asked if they had anything to say before leaving Colonel Gaynor re- plied that they were glad to go back at last and that-they would have noth- ing but the kindest remembrances of their treatment in Canada. Colonel Gaynor’s daughter-in-law was on board the train when the prisoners arrived and his son arrived at the station just before the train left. CHARGED WITH MURDER. Dr. Hart of Chicago Accused of Kill- ing Ten-Year-Old Girl. Chicago, Oct. 9.—Dr. Oliver B. Hart, millionaire’s son, would-be suicide and husband of a sixteen-year-old wife, "was formally charged during the day with the murder of ten-year-old Irene Klokow, a waif from an industrial school, whose father is a patient in an insane asylum and whose mother can- not be found. The doctor, who is said to be addicted to morphine and co- caine, gazed stupidly at the walls of the courtroom when arraigned and did not speak a word. He was represent- ed by a prominent lawyer, who agreed to a continuance of ten days asked for by the police. Before going into the courtroom Dr. Hart was ques- tioned by police officials, but adhered to his original story that the Klokow girl had swallowed morphine pills by mistake and that he had not attacked her. The prisoner’s father and father-in- law, residents of St. Louis, have both arrived in Chicago and are interesting themselves in developments. DEPOSITORS WILL BE PAID. First National Bank of Peoria, Closes Its Doors. Peoria, IIL, Oct. 9.—“We have sev- eral offers from banks who wished to take over our business, but our direc- tors, after carefully considering the matter, decided that the best thing to do would be to liquidate under the law. Every depositor will be paid in full and I am confident that the stock- kolders will receive a good return.” This is the statement of S. O. Spring, cashier of the Peoria National bank, which closed its doors as the result of the Dougherty investigation. Early in the day large numbers of depositors appeared at the bank, but the doors were closed and it was an- nounced that they would not befl opened again until a receiver had been ! appointed by the comptroller. The Dime Savings bank, in which j Dougherty is a large stockholder, ex- | perienced a small run, but paid all de- positors as they asked for their money.

BRIGHT'S DISEASE Many people who are neglecting symptoms of kidney trouble, L hoping “it will wear away,” are drifting towards Bright’s Disease, which is kidney trouble in one of its worst forms. FOLEY'S KIDNEY CURE stops irregularities, strengthens the urinary organs and builds u; the worn-out tissues of the kicfz neys so they will perform their functions properly. ~ Healthy kid- neys strain out the impurities from the blood as it passes thivugh them. Diseased kidneys do not, and the poisonous waste matter is carried by the circulation to every part of the body, causing dizziness, backache, stomach trouble, sluggish liver, irregular heart action, etc. If you have any signs of Kidney or Bladder trouble commence tak- ing FOLEY’S KIDNEY CURE at once, as it will cure a slight dis- order in a few days and prevent a fatal malady. Itis pleasant to take and benefits the whole system, How to Find Out. You can easily determine if your kid- neys are out of order by setting aside for 24 hours a bottle of the urine passed upon arising. If upon examination it is cloudy or milky or has a brick-dust sediment or small particles float about in _it, your kidneys are_diseased, and FOLEY'S KlDl:EY CURE should be taken at once. 6. B. Burhans Testitles After Four Years. ©. B. Barhans of Cariisle Cester, N. Y., writes: “About four years ago I wrote you stating thay I had been entirely cured of & severe kidney trouble by taking less than two bottles of Foley’s Kidney Cure. It entirely stopped the brick- dust sediment and pain and symptoms of kidney disease disappeared. I am glad to say that I have never had a return of any of those symp- toms during the four years that have elapsed, and I am evidently cured to stay cured, and heartily recommend Foley's Kidney Cure to any one suffering from kidney or bladder trouble."

Los Angeles, Oct. 9.—As the result { of a formal proposition submitted in writing to the city of Los Angeles there s a possibility that the “Gothen- burg saloon system” may be installed in this city, supplanting the present private ownership of the 200 saloons here. The proposition' came from twenty-five of the leading business men of the city, among the number being several possessing personal for- ! tunes of millions. It is proposed by these men as a company to pay to the city the sum of $10;000 per annum for the 200 saloon licenses now in opera- tion in the city and to reduce the to- tal number of saloons from 200 to 25. The company offers to acquire the fur- niture and fixtures and good will of the saloons of the,present proprietors at an appraised valuation. After the license tax has been paid the stock- holders of the company, under the proposed plan, will be entitled to 6 per cent dividends from the receipts of the business on the total amount of their investment, the remainder of the profits from the operation of the twenty-five saloons to revert to the city treasury. 9.—John Mitchell,| | ULTIMATUM FROM MISSOURI NEW YORK LIFE TO BE OUSTED UNLESS DEMANDS ARE COM- PLIED WITH. - g Jefferson City, Mo., Oct. 9.—State Superintendent of Insurance Vandiver has sent a communication to John A.
