RABBIHARRIS’ SUDDEN DEATH IN A STATE OF SIEGE. ‘The Revolt in Chili Causes a General Inter- raption of Business. Burxos Avags, Jan. 24—A conference has taken place between President Balmaceda and the Chilian deputies, but the president did not take advantage of the occasion to submit his resignation. The meeting therefore proved Profitless. ‘The revolationists constantly gain in strength and confidence. In Valparaiso and its neigh- borhood the workmen in the factories are join- ing the revolutionary forces in considerable numbers and the sympathy of the pub- lic seems generally turn to the rebels. Railroad traffic is interrupted through- out Chili, the a having sonped the running of trains by the tearing ap tracks and the destruction of railroad embankments.

The Lockout of Chicago Stonecutters Ended— ‘Work to Be Resumed Monday. Cutcaco, Jan. 24.—The lockout of the stone- cutters by the cut-stone contractors has been settled. The two committecs, after a few hours’ conference, have reached an agreement. The main points wherein the bosses objected was the fining of contractors by the men. This has-been done away with and whenever any trouble takes place the matter must be settled by an arbitration committee of five from each association. Should they not then each committee will select an out- jer and two outsiders will select a third man. three will then decide all difiienlty. The bosses agree to hire only journeymen cutters, and the latter agree only to work for cut-stone tractors. The men will go to work again Aopen WHILE HIS WIFE LOOKED ON. ‘The Brutal Murder of Elbridge G. Reed of Salem, N. H. Bostox, Jan. 24.—A Haverhill, Mass., special to the Herald says. The mystery surrounding the death of Elbridge G. Reed, whose muti- lated body was found in his barn at Salem, N.H., yesterday, has been cleared up. There is little doubt that Den Murphy, alias “Smasher” and Frank Woods are the mur- derers. ‘The motive for the murder. say the police, lay with the wife of the murdered man, ‘who instigated the crimo because of an infatua- tion for Dan Murphy. From the police ié is learned that they have evidence that the two men were carried from this city in a wagon to the house of Mr. Reed about 9 o'clock Thursday evening; that Mrs. Reed came to the door and greeted them, giving Murphy the additional welcome of a kiss; that soon after they entered the house, whether for | from any real cause or for one made as a pre- text is not known, Mr. Reed and the two visit ors got into a quarrel, in which the former was choked and beaten and kicked until he was after which his body was dragged into the barn and left, where it was fonnd by Se- Jectmen Merrill’ and McLaughlin and Dr. ye ——_ FELL DEAD IN CHURCH.

Mr. Dingley said Owenby seemed to be willing to answer letters from others but not from the committee, and that they had been trying for some days to get him. THE COLARADO POOL. Mr. Stevens said, in answer to further ques- tions, that in a conversation with Owenby something was said about a firm which has charge of the “‘Colorado pool,” and at the re- juest of the chairman Mr. Stevens privately in- cated this firm. missioners thought this sum excessive and accordingly a new jury was sum- moned, but they increased the ‘amount about 8600. ‘As there was but §5,000 appropriated for the condemation of streets and avenues, the Commissioners decided this afternoon that they could not open T street this year. The Com- missioners all thought that while the improve- ment was very desirable the parties interested in the extension of the strects should have do- nated the land and not require the District to pay for it.

His opinion was that be- tween $8,000,(0) and #10,000,000 of silver was held in New York and practically none outside of that city.
