TRIAL OF M. B. CURTIS, It is Claimed That the Police Department Couspired Against Him. Sax Fraxcrsco, Jan. 11.—The trial of M. B. Curtis, the actor, charged with the murder of Policeman Alex. Grant, will Be begun in the superior court this week. A startling rumor was afloat yesterday that Curtis was not only innocent of the crime with which he ischarged, -] but is the victim of a police conspiracy. George A. Knight, counsel for Curtis, said: “The cavo of Mr. Curtis is simply one of con- spiracy and persecutions by the police depart- ment. Curtis is an innocent man, and we will have no difiiculty in securing for him a triumphant acquittal. We will prove at the trial that there were two men with Policeman Grant on the night of the crime. Both men were under arrest and a Policeman bad the nippers an the wrists of oth. One of them was M. B. Curtis. The other unknown prisoner was the man who fired the shot that killed Grant. “We will prove that Capt. Lees of the de- tective force was in full possession of these facts early the next morning. Our witnesses for the defense will not only prove that, but will also prove that they notified the’ po- lice of the facts and the police fated to act upon the information —_re- ceived. Curtis maintained from the first that he never shot Grant. For a long time we thought we would maintam for the defense that Curtis did the shooting, as he might make a stronger defense for the reason that Grant was not in uniform, did not have a police- man’s star and wat in a locality where foot pads were numerous. Butwe have since discovered the evidence I speak of and now have a clear case of conspiracy against th lice. The police aliowed the guilty man to ¢ cape, and having a dead man on their hands thought they could fix this terrible crime on poor Curtis and that the facts would never come out, e ————.—-— WHAT KILLED THE KHEDIVE? It is Generally Acknowledged That He Died From an Overdose of Morphine. Carmo, Jan. 11--The correspondent who cabled on Saturday to the United States in re- gard to the report of Dr. Comanos, which showed that the khedive's death was indirectly brought about by an overdose of morphine ad- ministered bya native physician, Dr. Selim, has been told that his story has been ofassed as afabrication. ‘This is a ‘deliberate misstate- ment. The statements cabled regarding the Khedive's death were all substantially correct and have since been confirmed in nearly every particular. Loxpos, Jan. 11.—The greatest excitement revailed at Cairo when the report that the Enedive bad been poisoned gained circulation and much excitement is still manifested there among the native population. Dr. Selim is re- perted to have been sued three years ago for allowing a patient to die through his igrorance of the disease from which he was suffering. The khedive, according to the story, paid the $20,000 damages which the relatives of the dead man asked for. The Cairo correspondent of the Daily News, asanexample of the view taken of the affair by unprejudiced people, telegraphs that much indignation is expressed in Cairo at the native doctor's treatment of the khedive’s case, a ding that there is a general belief that the khedive's life might have been saved if proper medical skill had been applied for earlier. It is not probable that it will be shown that Dr. Selim Pasha maliciously administered the overdose of morphine to the khedive; it has never been claimed that such was the case; but it was but natural that the excited natives when they heard that the kiedive died from an overdose of morphine and that the physician who had administered it had disappeared should imagine that the khedive hi n | serge at the instigation of their hated iritish rulers. The Times, Daily News, Standard and Chron- icle and other leading newspapers this — all confirm the report that the khedive di trom the effects of an overdose of morphine administered to him by a native physician. a DR.

New Yonx, Jan. 11.—The stock market this morning opened with great activity in Reading, Atchison, New England, Louisville and Nashville and St. Paul, but the general list was compara- tively quiet, and the first prices, while generally slightly lower than Saturday's, were fairly stendy. The subsequent dealings devel- oped a firmer tone. New Englund was the Hrongest stock, advancing %{ per cent to 51%. The improvement in others was very slight. “Whisky trust was erpecially weak, dropping 1 per cent in the last half of the hour. In the hour to noon there was a marked falling off in the amount of business done and prices again declined wntil near noon, when there was another rally.
