Workmen's Demands Granted and the Miners’ Strike Ends. STOCKS ACTIVE AND WEAK. THE LAST OF A DESPERADO. John Oscar Turlington Hanged at Boone- ville, Mo., for Marder. Boowrvittx, Mo., March 6.—John Oscar Tullington was hanged hore at 10 o'clock for the murder of Sheriff Cranger of Cooper county. His neck was broken. TURLINGTON AND HIB CRIME. John Oscar Turlington was a desperado of the worst kind. His life was one series of crimes, In appearance he was more like « farmer than a criminal. He was born in the backwoods of Kentucky, and although but a little over twenty-six Fears of age Le liad a! record that few criminals equaled, When young he went west and there began his carcer of wrongdoing. After numerous exploits in the Indian territory and Indiana he went to Kentueky. Getting into trouble in the latter state he started for the west. A year ago this month while going through Missouri he was ordered from a freight train. While jumping off the car he fired at the brakeman and then ran away. He was arrested and locked up in the Booneville jail to await trial for assault. Owing to his quiet behavior, which was as- sumed, Turlington's desperate character was not suspected and he was allowed considerab! liberty in the jail. HOT THE SHERIFF. When the time came to lock up the prisoners in their cells Turlington drew a revolver just as Cranmer inserted the key in the lock of hia cell door. The sheriff quickly drew his pistol and the men exchanged shots, Cranmer being wounded and dying the next day, Turlington afew miles from Booneville. At the trinl it was shown that a simple-minded Ind, cozfined in the jail for a minor offense, bad made his ro- lense and secretly passed a revolver to Turling- ton through a window of his cell. Turlington convicted of murder in the first degree and sentenced to be hanged on September 17. The case was taken on appeal to the supreme court. Rendered impatient by the delay incident to the appeal, the citizens of Cooper county began to talk of lynching, aud this coming to Turling- ton's knowledge’ he determined to escape rather than become a victim of the advocates of lynch law. A SECOND EscaPE. Finding that circumstances favored him in his design he. on the night of November 1, made his escape fromi the jail. As soon as it known that he was at large a posse was Organized and started after the fugitive, For a week a strict search was continued, but Turlington could not befound. On November 12 the welcome tidings were received at Boone- ville that the murderer had been caught in Kentucky. It was known that the man had many relatives and friends in that state and that officers of every small town had been noti- fied to be on the watch. ‘The rewards, amount- ing to over $1,300, were enough to put every man on his guard, and Turlington was placed behind the bars at Caseyville, Ky. The ville authorities could hardly believe their good fortune when first apprised of the arrest. A little later, however, came a telegram as follows: “A. "Hornbeck, sheriff, Booneville, Mo. Iam captured. Please have your deputy sheriffs and officers to have me protected the men. John Oscar Turlington.” RETURNED TO BOONEVILLE. Sheriff Hornbeck at once went to Jefferson City and obtained the proper requisition papers. He then went to Frankfort, Ky., to have the papers honored. His deputy, W. L. Spaher, started direct to Caxeyville to hold the risoner until Hornbeck’s arrival. It appears, ptors became owever, that “hier, pool s — jose the reward if they alarmed that they woul let their prisoner off their hands, aud, having obtained Turlington’s consent, started with the man to Booneville. At Evansville, Ind., they encountered Spaher, who demanded the pria- oner. He had no papers, however, and was refused. Spaher then came on with the Ken- tucky man to this state. ‘A THIRD ESCAPE. After being returned to jail Turlington onee more escaped but was captured when he got to Ottorville, only thirty-five miles from Boone- ville. On January 27 last the supreme court rendered its decision sustaining the «decision of ‘the trial court and fixing the date of the exe- cution for today. . ia ENTS A BANKER’S SUICIDE, Robert Lindsay Antrobus of London Found Dead in His Bed. Loxvox, March 6.—Mr. Robt. Lindsay Antro- bus, second son of Sir Edward Antrobus, baronet, and a junior partner in the well- known banking house of Coutts & Co., was found dead in his bed this morning with a pistol by his side. It is believed that Mr. An- trobus committed suicide. The deceased banker was born in 1857 and not married. ‘The cause of Mr. Antrobus’ suicide is not known. He is said to have had no business or social troubles. pte THE DEMANDS GRANTED. End of the Great Strike of Miners on the Monongahela River. Prrrspuro, Pa., March 6.—The great miners’ strike on the Monongahela river is ended. A settlement was effected this morning by the coal operators conceding the demands of their employes, and they will hereafter pay 3! cents per bushel for mining. Six thousand miners will resume work Monday next, after a strike lasting nine weeks and an estimated lone of over $1,000,000 in wages. Pressing demands for coal in the Mississippi river markets compelled the operators to come to the miners’ terms. jakarta Cseansads STOCKS ACTIVE AND WEAK. A Slight but General Decline of Prices in ‘Wall Street. New Yorx, March 6.—The stock market opened dull and with a firm tone this morning, the opening prices being generally from 3 to 36 per cent better than the finel figures of last evening, but the strength in the market oon proved to have reached its height and the courve of prices was quickly turned downward again. There was heavy selling for a short time of what looked like short stock in the grangers and those shares ‘were not only most active, but suffered most in the downward movement. When the downward movement was checked Northwestern and Hock Intend were down 1 por cent each, Burlington and Lackawanna cach }, Lake Shore %, Atchi- son % and others generally insignificant frac- tions. There was, however, the same dullness umual of late in the general list, only Louis d Nashville showing any animation outside of the stocks mentioned, even the intiustrials being comparatively reglected. “Dullness enme again with the cessation of the pressure to sell, but the market showed little or no recuperative and in the active stocks prices remained Pi tie neighborhood of the lowest figures, ‘The later dealings developed no feature whatever, and at 11 o'clock the market was dull and still rather heavy at or near the lowest prices 2d EDITION. ~ escaping Turlington was captured by a ponse | MMS8er, r P| y | | desire to talk further about LEONARD JEROME BURIED.

PARNELL CAMPAIGN FUND. ane a one & Contest for Home sale. Dvzrix, March 6.—In the appeal for money to form a Parnell campaign fund tho lord | mayor of Dublin, the Right Hon. Joseph M. Meade, J.P., and the high sheriff of Dublin, James Shanks, esq., are appointed treasurers of the fund. The appeal puts home rule to the front and it declares that the industrial development of Ireland and civil and religious liberty must be an ossential part of Irish self government. The appeal ulso says that there must be no re- ligious domination, av Ireland has had too much ascondancy to ever tolerate w Catholic or protestant government rule under her own la Mr. Parnell on Wednesday next gives evi dence before the royal mining commission ap- pointed to inquire into mining royalties. Next week Mr. Parnell will issue a’ manifesto to American Irishmen. He will nddress meetings in Ireland on several succeeding Sundays. Sir John Pope Hennessy hus written letters to riests and others in Ireland in which he claims hat he outbid Mr. Parnell in ex:ent of the | home-rule measures which were desired. He that he demands control of everything, including the customs and fiscal systems, with- out which, heads, the development of Ireland's resources would be hindered. seule arate AFTER RAILWAY OFFICIALS. Warrants for the Arrest of Chauncey M. De- Pew and Associate Directors, New York, March 6.—Coroner Levy issued warrants this morning for the officers and di- rectors of the Now York, New Haven and Hart- ford railroad, who have been held responsible by the coroner's jury for the deaths of the victims of the Harlem railroad tunnel diraster. Thero warrants are for the following officials: Officors—-Charlee P. Clark, New Haven, president; E, M. Reed, vice president, New Haven; Luctus Tuttle, general Kew Haven; Wn. D. Bishop, jr, fectotury, Bridgeport: “William 1. Squire, treasurer, New Haven; H. M. Kockerspeiger, cohtroller, New — Haven; Chas. T.

Rockefeller, New York: Leverett§Brainard, Hartford, and Nathaniel Wheeler, Bridgeport. From this it will be seen that the majority of the officials live outside of this state. Coroner Levy does not anticipate that he will have a trouble in securing their attendance in th city. They will probably come on here readily, for they would have nothing to gain by resist~ ing the coroner. eae TO AVERT DISASTER. Business of the Argentine Banks Suspended for Two Days. Bvrxos Avnes, March6.—The Argentine gov- ernment issued a decree yesterday which sus- pends business on the bourse, in the custom house and in the banks for two days—today and tomorrow. This decree was issued in view of the disturbed state of trade, the financial anx- iety prevailing and the general feeling of panic which exists in all circles. The decree announces that the two days mer- tioned are to be observed ak holidays, but the real reason for the suspension of business is to try tosave the Provincial Bank, about which so much has becn said recently, from financial disaster. There bas been arun on the bank for woveral days and it is believed that it did not dare to open its doors today. Asyndicate composed of 120 merchants has arranged a plan by which they will lend the Argentine government the sum of #20,000,000. Consequently the government has decided that no fresh issue of paper money will be made and that the tax of 2 per cent ‘recently levied on all deposits in private bunks will be abol- ed Senor Lopez, the minister of finance, has re- signed. He will probably be succeeded by Senor Wirbaurra. sdiestee” © sell SHORT OF AMMUNITION. Why the Chilfan Insurgents Do Not Attack the Capital. Loxpox, March 6.—A dispatch to the Ex- change Telegraph Company from Chili says that information received from offi- cial sources shows that the Chilian in- surgents are short of ammunition and they, therefore, refrained from making an at- tack upon the capital, Santiago de Chili, where the ti re well ‘armed and prepared to make a us defense. President Balmaccdas’ partisans are of the opinion that a vigorous effort upon the part a iced government troops will quell the re- ion. eee ee Rigid Passport Regulations Cause Trouble. ‘Special Cable Dispatch to The Evening Star. Panis, March 6.—The stringent enforcement of the custom ‘house regulations on the Alsace- Lorraine frontier is causing the greatest incon- venience to travelers. At Avricourt and Altun- merusterrol, two railway stations, many pas- tongers have been stopped and sent back across the French frontior. jerday the trains pro- ceeded into Germany almost empty. The passengers insisted that they had no knowledge of the new passport regulations and vainly en- deavored to induce the officials to allow them to proceed on their journey. Ria i ‘The Virginia Debt Settlement. Bpecial Dispatch to The Evening Star. Ricumoxp, Va., March 6.—Mr. W. L. Royall, counsel for the foreign bondholders, went to New York a few days ago and had an interview with ex-President Cleveland, a member of the advisory committee, on the debt settlement. Ho urged Mr. Cleveland to come to Virginia and talk with the people if he bud a real desire to uid in the debt settlement. The ex-President stated that the plan of settlement had already been agreed npon, when Mr. Royall rhowed a e debt. Mr. Clevelend declined to hear him and the inter- view ended very abruptly. Republicans Still;Vote for Oglesby. Srnixarieip, Iu.

There is some this claim because of the fact that a number of Quebec members elected to the last house of commons as nationalists and liberals were drawn over to the side of the government by the attraction of patronage and other advantages that accrue from being aseo- ciated with the partyin power. ‘The same may eecur again and in such an event the govern- t claim is not excessive.

This vote, of course, does not settle the ques- tion, but the Baltimore conference, the oldest im the country, was looked to with more than the ordinary amount of interest to see what ite decision was to be. ‘The question is to be sct- tled definitely at the general conference im 1892. It will take a heavy vote to make such radical change in the government of the church as the admission of women would be, and it Degins to look as though that vote would not materialize. To aceomplish this innovation it will be necesaary that three-quarters of all the Aggregate votes of the different annual confer- ohves and two-thirds of all the votes of the gen- eval conference be in favor of it. Out of 204 in the Baltimore conference who were entitled to vote on the question this morning 184 voted, and of this number 145 voted against the ad- mission of women. ‘The only other business of any particular importance transacted this morning was the almiasion of seven candidates to full member- ship aud deacons’ orders. SLOW IN GETTING TOORTHER. The sessions of the Methodist conference at Hamline Church began at 8:30 o'clock this morning with a religious service conducted by Rey. 8. A. Wilson of Baltimore. The members were slow in gathering, but there was a fair attendance when, at 9 o'clock, Bishop Joyce called upon the’ secretary to read the minutes of yesterday's meetings. ‘were approved. Later on in the day the attendance of min- isters was so large as to fill the church and in the galleries were a number of women, who re- mained as interested spectators of the proceed ings of the day. A number of reports and communications of more or lese impor! were read. The reportof the Methodist Preach- ers’ Aid Society places at the disposal of the conference #4,5 ‘The treasurer, Richard Cornelins, reports $8,702.50 as receipts and €3,944.80 ‘as a balance. The assets of the so- ciety are $120,141.61. ‘The gift of €10,000 to the ' society by Francis A. Crook, the president of the society, was acknowledged and a vote of thanks was passed to him. Certain changes i the charter of the society were author: The report of the book committee of general conference showed that the receipts from the sales in the east had emounted to. $1,035,358.72 and in the western states to $987,099.58. BISHOP JOYCE TO THE CANDIDATES. ‘Then Bishop Joyce began his remarks to the candidates for admission to the ministry. ‘These, seven in number, were seated in the front row and listened attentively to the bishop's address, which wasan able and clear exposition of the duties of a minister and the responsibilities resting upon him. His address was quite a lengthy one and was fall of good advice as to the best methods that should be adopted by ministers in winning over souls. e candidates stood up and were asked a series of questions, to all of which they geve satisfactory answers, whon they all agreed that they do not now and never will use tobaceo. Bishop Hurst made a stirring anti- fobaceo speech. Wm. Anthony, Robert W. Fleming, Edward Hayes, Wm. L. ‘Orem, Robt. M. Moore, Wm. C. Bryan, Millard F. Lowe. Harold M. Thurlow were reported upon, ad- mitted to full membership and elected to dea- cons’ orders. The repurt of the committee for canvassing the vote of the Inity on the question of admitting women to the general conference was read. Tt showed thnt in the entire Lalti- more district those who were against admission outnumbered those who favored the innovation by a total vote of 4,310 to 2,944. AGAINS? THE ADMISSION OF WOMEN. At 11 o'clock it was voted to continue with the regular order of the day—the vote of con- The vote ference on the admission of women. was by yeas and nays without debate. time ihe church was crowded with even the aisles were well filled with people standing, and the deepest interest was taken in the question. A motion was made to recon- sider the matter of the form of voting, but the motion was Inid on the table by a vote of 85 to 54. Ax the roll wascalled it became evident very soon tha; the sentiment was strongly against admission. One by one the votes were placed against the question, but whenever a vote for women was east there was considerable ap- plause from the gallery. Bishop Joyce w obliged to ask for silence that the vote might be tuken in a satisfactory manner. Of the ters regintered from the Washington dis- trict Rev. Messrs. Baker, Baldwin, Browning, Corey, Cornelius and Hawley voted in favor of woman's admission, while Rev. Messrs. Brown, Cook, Dashiell, Eiliott, Ferguson, Gibson, Laney, Markham, Mullen, Mytinger, Orem, Owen, Price, A. R. Reiley, J. McK. Reiley, Rice, C. H. Richardson, E. Richardson, Schuliz and Turner voted against it. While the vote was being counted A-S. Hunt of the American Bible Society made an address on bebaif of zaission wor! Dr. Berry, editor of the Epworth Herald, gave a brief talk on the methods and work of that Paper. AN UNSATISFIED AUDIEXcE. The total vote on the question of admission was 184. Of this number 39 were for and 145 against, a majority of 106 against the propo- sition. This crushing majority gave little sat- isfaetion to the audience, and the. galierien, which were» crowded almost entirely with romen, had a generally disappointed air about it. Still, when Bishop Joyce announced the total vote there was a suspicion of applause from the female contingent upstairs. ‘This was all. There were no speeches or remarks made _ Dinos 4 Went off in a most matter-of- Dr. Naylor made some announcements as to the members of conference who would conduct, services at the different local churches on Sun- ‘Thin evening at 7:30 the meeting at Hamline Church will be Pretided over by Bishop Hurst and Chaplain C.C.
