STREET FIGHTING IN SLIGO. CARRIED AWAY 82,000,000. How an Indiana Family Tried to Escape the Assessors, Dexpnr, Ixp., March 27.—A little over @ year ago Abner H. Bowen died at his home in this city, leaving a fortune, mostly in personal property, of 5,000,000. He had scarcely been buried when the officials of this county moved on his estate to collect back taxes on property that had been hidden from theassessors, and the series of rows it raised would Zilla large book. ‘The elder Bowen, although possessed of mil- lions, listed for taxes only on a few thousands, but #0 great was his powcr that no man made a move during his lifetime to compel him to pay taxes on all the property he owned. The Bowen heirs failed to agree among themselves upon an administrator and the court appointed the county treasurer under the statute to act in that capacity. The heirs fought his appointment as being inimical to the interests of the estate and took the mat- ter to the supreme court, but the higher court decided against them. ‘THE HEIRS DEMORALIZED. z= heirs kept up the fight until Wednesday, ‘en the attorneys for the county filed a state- ment with the auditor asking that personal prop- erty to the value of over $2,000,000 be placed on the tax duplicate against the estate of Abner H. Bowen. This demoralized them. They se- eretly commenced to pack up their possessions. ‘Trunks, valises, satchels und boxes were brought into requisition and in them were stored notes, mortgages, bonds and stocks. With these in their possession the heirs de- parted on the midnight train and the widow is now in Urbana, Ill. ALL TARE TO FLIGHT. Edward Bowen is in Chicago and A. T. Bowen and Etta Bowen are on their way to Philadel- phia. All have given up their residence in Indiana except Nathaniel Bowen, who retains the real estate. It is estimated that the value of the property carried away isin theneighborhood of $2,000,000. When the announcement of the retreat of the heirs was made yesterday no one appeared more surprised than their attorneys, wito declared that they had not received « bint of the intended flight of their clients. REASONS FOR THE MOVE. Two reasons are given for the sensational move of the Bowen heirs. They desired to get their possessions out of the state before the assessor came around next month to list property under the new law, and they also figure on having the tax suits transferred to the United States court on the ‘ound that they are non-residents. The Eick in this city owned and operated bythe family, is in hands of an assistant cashier and is meeting all _obliga- tions, many depositors having withdrawn their'm It was anticipated that when the news was generally circulated in the country run would be made upon the institution, but there was no run on the bank today, and couti- dence in its ability to meet all obligations is unimpaired. a ITALY’S HEAVY BURDEN. Expenses Entatled by the Triple Alliance | q Affecting Financial Circles, ‘Special Cable Dispatch to The Evening Star. Leonor, March 27. Bank of Leghorn with liabilities of €10,000,000, the failure of two large houses here and the suicide at Rome of a leading financier who was in money dificulties have caused @ profound sensation throughout Italy. The long-continued strain originally im- osed by the entrance of Italy int> the Drei- und and the consequent increase of taxation to keep the army and navy up to the standard insisted upon by Prince Bis- marck is at last beginning to tell. Hitherto only the poorer classes have suffered from want of work and low prices, but now financial distress is beginning to be felt among the well-to-do. It wus this that drove Count Crispi into private life and it may event- ually compel his successor to recommend that his government retire from the alliance that, working in conjunction with other causes, bas brought Italy to its present embarrassing con- tion. es JUDGE HAMILTON'S ‘CASE, A Maine Oficial Charged Before the Legis- lature With Various Offenses. Avavsta, Mr., March 27.—The legislature as- sembled in jogt convention this forenoon to consider the utter of removing from office by an address to the governor Judge Charles 8. Hamilton of Biddeford. He is charged with intemperance, immorality, licentiousness while a judge, presiding over court while intoxicated, and illegally signing and issuing for officers’ nse blank legal docu- ments when no cases were pending to authorize their issuance. Hamilton's counsel denied the charges,claim- ing that they were not properly drawn, and that surficient notice had not been given to prepare a defense, and asked that the petitioners be ordered to furnish a bill of particulars, EDUCATIONAL QUALIFICATION FOR VOTERS.

Affairs Reaching a Cris! Be Shed. Loxpoy, March 27.--It is not often that Lord Salisbury interferes in Irish affairs, and the statement that he had a conference with Mr. Balfour yesterday relative to the Sligo emphasizes the danger of ‘This morning's advices state that affairs seem to be reaching a crisis when bloodshed will be unavoidable. Street fights are of daily occur- rence, and one side «pares no provocation likely to madden the other. The police are on the scene in large numbers and military are being hastened to reinforce them; but the po- lice are so exhausted with continuous service that it is feared they would not be efficient in the event of a gencral riot. ‘The Parnellites claim that the priests are oc- casioning most of the trouble, and the priests answer that they are doing no more than their duty. ‘The police have been strictly enjoined to take no side, but only to preserve the peace. Mr. Parnell’s friends in London and elsewhere have, it is said, earnestly requested him to keep away from Sligo, it being even hinted that there is an oath-bound organization that will not stop short of treating him as Cronin was treated in America. ‘To all advice, however, Parnell turns = deaf ear, going into the combat with an partakes of frenzy.

One of these was the shooting from ambush of Alec Handlin, thirty'miles west of Purell, I.

THE CHILIAN REBELLION. An Interesting Talk on the Situation by Dr. A. M. Soteldo. RELATIVE STRENGTH OF THE REBELS AND TEE OOVERNMENT—THE LATTER WILL SOON OBTAIN TRE MASTERY—FUTILE ATTEMPTS TO CAPTURE VALPARAISO BY THE IXSURGENTS. The interview with Dr. A. M. Soteldo, ex- minister from Venezula and one of the shrewd- est South American diplomats in Washington, recently published in Tux Stax, caused no small interest among those who are watching the progress of the Chilian rebellion. Some new facts were presented in that inter- view and a better understanding of the situa- tion was given by them than can be obtained by the regular press dispatches, which are alleged to be colored for party and finan- cial reasons. Dr. Soteldo is in constant correspondence with the leaders of the government in Chili and is always in receipt of the very latest reliable information in regard to the condition of affairs. Meeting him this morning a Stan reporter asked if he had received any additional news recently. Dr. Soteldo said: TO SUCCEED BALMACEDA. “Don Claudio Vicufia has been nominated by the electoral convention convened at Santiago, the Chilian capital; to succeed President Bal- maceda, whose term of office ex} on the 18th of next September, when the anniversary of the independence of the republic is to be celebrated, and in all probability Senor Vicufia’s inauguration as constitutional successor of the present incumbent will take P e. “Presidents Balmaceda feels anxious and promises to do his best to suppress the present armed rebellion against the government before the expiration of his constitutional term, so as not fo leave to his successor any of the fighting incumbrances of such a domestic trouble, 80 detrimental to the welfare and prosperity of the nation. “The government is in jon of every. thing necessary to accomplieh that end before the middle of next September. Let us sec.” THE BEBEL FORCES. “Do you know,” asked the reporter, “what the rebel forces amount “The faction against the government ap- pears to have had the control of the Tarapaca coast, with the ports off Pisagua and Iquque, and no foothold whatever in the adjacent terri tory. They have the powerful ironclads Blanco, Encalada and Cochrane, the cruiser Esme the monitor Huascar,the gun boats Magallas anc Abtao, one of iron’ and the other of wood. ‘Their speed is of ten knots, except the Esme- ralda, which, in her present condition, may make twelve an hour. About eight of the steamers of the South American errice, e property of an Ei company, under a govermment mail. contract, are" serving the Tebels as transports. “No matter how powerful such a fleet may be it isby no means adequate to control the extensive coast of the republic from Pisagua to the Straits of Magellan. ‘Their attempts at Caldera aud Coquimbo have met with partial success only at the start, but they have lost it all by repeated acts of violence, crucity and lawlessness. Their atteupte at Valparaiso and other places at the south have proved disastrous in every way.” THE GOVERNMENT RESOURCES. “What are the government forces and re- sources?” “Not only are the resources of the govern- ment abundant in cash and men and the good will of the people, especially the laboring and industrial but in ammunitions, war materials of every kind, and the powerful and more modern ironclads, which have been for the last two years in course of construction at the principal navy yards of Europe, as may be seen by the last reports of the secretary of the Chilian navy. “Large portions of the contract for rifles of the latest styles have been successfully de- livered already to the government in Chilian ports. ‘The landing of 7,000 rifles by the Ger- man steamer Bianca has been lately effected within Tange of the vessels kept by the rebels to intercept them, but so far without success. The arrival of the powerful and fastest iron- clads, built at Birkenhead by Laird Bros., has beeu reported at Montevideo, and thence by a cablegram of the 2ist instant on their way to Valparaiso through the Straits of Magellan. ‘THE CHILIAN Navy. “The new vessels—the Admiral Lynch and the Admiral Condell—are built according to the specifications and conditions reported lately by the secretary of the navy. They both attain a speed of twenty-one knots and possess all the modern improvements of artillery and everything else. “Besides the Lynch and Condell the govern- ment has the first-class and fast ironclads Presidente Errazuriz and the Presidente Pinto, both furnished with the more modern and powerful armament and of a tested s,e2d of twenty miles an hour in ordinary weather. The Chilian government bas ‘purchased besides two of the more formidable vessels ever built, which will join soon the above vessels with the necessary tenders sufficient to under- take the capture of the rebel men-of-war. government fleet, now about ready for action, is superior in every respect to that of the revels.” CAN'T GET VALPARAISO. “The rebels are striving to capture the forti- fied port of Valparaiso, are they not?” “The possession of Valparaiso has been the golden dream of the rebels. Their attempts to seize it failed when its fortifications were not by any means what they are now, after omer strategic point has been carefully furnish with the best armament known in modern war- fare. “Admiral Oscar Viele, who represented Chili recently at the international marine conference here, is the chief in command at Valpariaso, Besides the fortifications on shore there isa fieet of torpedo boats to protect the port against any mag, = on the locolo, artof the rebele, vis the re. : neapel, Geracolda, Segeralda, Ianaques, Gaule, Quidora, Rucamilla and Sar- gento Aldea, all of the white-head system, fur- nished by Fiume.” a RAIDED BY THE POLICE. A Disorderly Room on I Street Entered and Several Persons Arrested. House No. 1013 I street northeast is a two- story frame shanty and one room in it is oceu- pied by a forty-year-old colored woman named Jennie Day and her eighteen-year-old daughter Lillie. The furniture consists of a bed, a few charts, s bureau and a stove. Almost every night Jennie and her daughter have company and they “‘rush the 2 until some are so affected by the beer that they have difiiculty in finding their way home. The noise made by this mixed company has becn the subject of many complaints to the police and some weeks ago the place was raided. Judge Miller then imposed a fine of $50. Execution of sentence was sus- pended upon the woman's promise to break m the crowd of disorderly characters who frequented the place, but she failed to do this and last night Jennie and her denght arrested. ‘This morning the entire disorderly charged with being the keeper of « house. ly instalments, payments tobe made on | disc! NOT A VERY GOOD FRIDAY, KINCAID'S TRIAL, & Biustering Wind and « Snowstorm—The ‘Chances for Easter. Today is Good Friday, and it isn'te very Good Friday either. Indeed, it is beyond « doubt about the woret imposition in the shape of a day that has been foisted upon the help- less, unfortunate public of Washington for very many months. ‘Just why it should happen to be #0 unutter- ably bad on this day of all others, this day with eo fair a name, can but be conjectured.

WHERE IT STARTED. This particular storm started at Brook's Ranch, Utah, last Monday and traveled in a southeasterly direction until it reached the Texas line on the same day. when it began to curve more to the east. At Waco Tex., on Tuesday, the storm took an abrupt = turn to the northeast, but on entering the state of na it went sontheast again. It had almost reached Mobile yesterday morning when it made @ sharp change in ite course and went shooting off to the north. At Nashville last night it suffered a domestic @ificulty and from some unknown cause it split into two divisions, each taking an inde Pendent course.

TRE SIONAL OFFICE. The signal office this morning estimated that the storm would probably not take more than day to pass a given point, for predictions were issued of clearing weather in the Carolinas for in the pro- tomorrow. Hence, if there should be no sli im the storm should get out of our wat by morrow night, and thus there ix reason to believe that Easter morning will dawn brightly. Of course there is every chance for a slip in this arrangement and a prediction of @ fair Sunday might bea little risky, as these coust storms frequently hang fire at the mouth of Chesapeake bay for two and sometimes three daze ato time. ere was no change in the temperature here lost night, as the thermometers had fallen the night before sufficiently to allow this jon to, keep in style, This morning the record was 32 degrees or freezing, but this let up a little during the day. There was little rainfall during =the night—only 6-10 of an inch. The wind, however, blew upward of twenty-twoand twenty-five miles an hour this morning, thus increasing the discomfort of traveling. SPRING GETS A SET BACK. The appearance of things today beara truly wintry aspect, and the first signs of approach- ing spring and departing winter which became apparent some weeks ago in the budding of trees and tho greenness of the grass in the parl been di by a blustering ‘now storm which struck the city early this morning. accompanied by @ strong northeast wind. The suow fell thick and fast for awhile, but melted as soon as it touched the ground, owing to the mildness of the air, and now only a thin layer covers the earth and little or none pears on the asphalt streote. A Nasi¥, MoIsT sNow. Tt wasa nasty, moist snow, that turned into several inches of slush on the sidewalks, and the streets and stores were deserted of throng of girls and matrons who had during the ing days of the week joyfully ‘welcomed the bright sunshiny days as the time in which to do their spring shopping. This is exceedingly late in the season for snow to fall in Wash - ton, and it is altogether an unusual occurrence. gree DEATH OF GEN, EKIN. An Officer Who Was Well Known Here Dur- ing and Since the War. Rev. Dr. Butler, pastor of the Memorial Lutheran Church, today received » telegram from Louisvil'e, Ky., announcing the death there last night of Gen. James A. Ekin, United States army, retired. Gen. Ekin was born in Pittsburg in 1819, and at the beginning of the civil war entered the twelfth Pennsylvania in- fantry as first lieutenant and regimental quar- termaster and reached the grade of captain and assistant quartermaster in the volunteer army. In 1863 he was admitted to the regular army with similar rank and assigned to duty in Washington in Febraary, 1864. He was af- terward promoted to be lieutenant colonel and colonel in the quartermaster general's office, where he continued until 1870. After that he was made chief quartermaster in the department of ‘Texas and also acted in @ similar capacity in the department of the south. He was breveted a brigadier general in the volunteer army and a major gencral in the regular army for distinguished services in the war. In August, 1888, he was placed on the retired list of the army. Gen. Ekin was very well and favorably known in Washington, where he spent a num- ber of years of his life. He was of a cheery, bright disposition and made many friends, who will sincerely mourn his death. He was an earnest and devoted member of the church, belonging to the United Presby- terian faith. While he was stationed at Wash- ington there was no congregation of his fol- lowing — located here, 0 he worshipped with Dr. Butler ‘while he was in charge of St. Paul's English Lutheran Church and afterward with him at the Memo- rial Church. Since his retirement Gen. Ekin has resided in Louisville, but whenever he came east he always paid a visit to the Memo- rial Church. Dr. Butler feelingly referred t: his death at the services this morning and paid # loving tribute to his memory. ——— ‘THE CASE OF THE SAYWAED. ‘The Case in the Supreme Court May be Abandoned. I¢ ia stated that it is probable that the case of the Canadian sealer, Sayward, will not be called for trial in the United States Supreme Court as originally intended. This is said to be the result of a conference that recently took place in New York between Mr. Choate, the leading counsel for the Canadian government, anda member of the present administration, The subject was discussed at length, it is said, to make any overtures ‘except under certain contingencies, and in the mean- time he proposes to prepare for trial.
