There were seyeral people who remembered after the murder was made known sesing a stranger with & bag over his back running down the street. About 12:30 o’clock a Mr. Cheney was about his place when hesaw a strange man in a light overcoat and light felt hat yault the fence surrounding Dr. Hayes’ orchard on Prospect Hill. The stranger walked well into the orchard unil he ame to a pile of brusbh. At this point Cheney’s attention was diverted for a mo- ment, and when he again looked toward the brush heap the s ger had changed hats and then wore & dark-colored Derby. Then he saw him toss the bag behind the orchard wall, The stranger then left the orchard and started dows Linden str In a few minu.es he appeard driving a chesinut horse. He was with another man, and when he reached the orchard he left thecarriage. He went 10 the place where Cheney had seen him throw the bag. He had taken «ff his overcoat, and when he started for the car- yiage sgain he had the bag and endeav- ored to cover the bag with this garment. He jumped into the bugey and drove off at top speed. It was nearly 2 o’clock bafore there was picion that a crime had been com- any micted. At that hour oneof the local merchants, Frank Reed, went up the stairway leading to the bank, and found the plate glass in the doorway leading into the bank broken. He tried the door and it was locked. Hurrying out 1o the street he reported the matter, and the police were soon on the scene, Con Hardigan and Jjohn Briggs, local boxers, were arrested in Waitham, Mass., this afternoon on_suspicion. Both admit having been to Somersworth during the forenoon, but say they left there at 10 o'clock and arrivel in Boston at12. They claim to have remained one hour or two at Boston before coming to Waltham, On the other hand, a dispatch to the Waltham officers from the New Hampshire authori- e men were in Somersworth as 0.

Stickney had a son and two daugh- ters. He bad been employed in the bank twenty-five years and was 65. Five years ugO an attempt was made 10 rob the same bank. Stickney was gagged and tied up, but the robbers were not successful in ef- fecting an entrance to the vaulit. At a meeting of the directors of the bank to-night an offer of $1000 reward was offered for the arrest of the murderer. Anotner reward of $100) is offered for the return of the money. About $5000 of the city’s mouney, which was in Stickney’ keeping as City Treasurer, was also taken. This amount in bill: DEAD WOWEN I4 A BUGGY. Murdered From Ambush by a Jealous Husband While Dr.ving With a Gallant Soldier Boy. SYRACUSE, N. Y., April 16.—Early this morning the provrietors of one of the livery stables in Sacketts Harbor were borrified when one of their horses came trotting up to the door of the stable draw- ing a buggy containing the bodies of two deai women. There was no driver, the horse having made its way alone to the stable. The buggy had been hired the night be- fore by George Allen, 8 soldier stationed at Madison Barracks. There was nothing about the vebicle to tell what had become of him. An examination of the two bodies showed that the women had been mur- dered. They bad been shot and stabbed, and the bodies were badly mangled with a knife. They were identified as Mrs. William Crouch and Miss Mary Daly. As soon as possiole a search was made to ascertain the story of the crime. A party started out in the direction from which the borse bad come. It had gone but & short distance when Allen was met staggering along the road toward town. He haa been badiy huri, was dripping with water and seemed to be in a dazed condition. He was taken to the barracks, where he was sufficiently restored to be able to make a statement. According to the story told by Allen the murder was committied by the husband of Mrs. Crouch. He had long been insanely Jealous of her and had made her life so miserable that she had finally brought suit for d ce. Tiis had made Crouch extremely angry, and he bad, according to Allen, threatened to make her regret Ber action. While they were driving along the Waterlno road last ht near Sacketts Harbor Crouch sudderly arose from the s:de of the road, where he had evidently besn waiting, and opened fire on the party in the buggy. Allen knew little of what bad occurred, as he was struck and be- came senseless, but the two women must bave been killed at that time. Crouch evidently thinking Allen dead threw him into a nearby siream, where the cold water revived him. Hecrawled out of the’ water and suceeeded in making his way to town. Itis believed that he will die. g NOT GREATER THAN THE LAW. Citizens of Indianapolis Show the Street- car Companies That They Must Accep' 3-Cent Fares. INDIANAPOLIS, INp., April 16.—There has been iniense excitement all day over the action of the street-railroad company in defying the law for 3-cent fares. This morning the citizens banded together for the protection of passengers and defied the company’s employes to eject them. Early this morning companies of ten or twenty cilizens stood at the street corners and boarded the cars for the express pur- pose of ceeing that the company accept the legal fare. When the conductors asked one for a 5-cent fare and upon re- fusal to pay tried to eject him he found ten or adozen determined men ready to assist the passenger. In one case a man was kicked in the stomacn by the motor- man and & riot was averted only by turn- ing qp tbe current and taking the car away from the excited crowd. Many con- ductors, seeing that the citizens were de- termined, accepted the legal fare. The many contentions of the morning pro- duced so much feeling that Mayor Tag- gert called upon President Mason of the company, and he sgreed that 3 cents be accepted as fare till the case pending in the courts is decided. To-night the Grand Jury returned indictments against Presi- aent Mason and Superintendent Elliott for violating the law. Other indictments will pe returned against them. g h HOWARD V. SUTHERLAND'S satire and wit in to-day’s Star. ated in & buggy | ALARMED BY Tht JAPANESE INFLUX So Hawaiian Represen- tatives Renew Request for Annexation. Too Many Subjects of the Mikado Landing for Safety. 1t Is Said That McKinley and Sher- man Are in Favor of Annex- ing the Islands. WASHINGTON, D. C., April 16.—-One of the Hawaiians who is here urging an- nexation is representing to members of Congress and the State Department that be is seriously alarmed over the prospect that Japan may gain dominion over the islands unless this Government takes speedy action. He complains that the matter of annexation languishes in the oftice of the Secretary of State. It has also been pigeonholed in the office of jthe President. Some weeks ago came news that there was an unusual influx of Japanese into Honolulu. At the headquarters of the ex-Queen here this was understood to mean something more than the mere flocking of an unusual number of em. | grants to the isiand. It was colonization for a purpose. The movement of Japanese to the island in large numbers is, how- ever, not a thing of the past few months. The recent report made by the Depart- ment of Foreign Affairs of the Dole Gov- ernment, of which Mr. Sherman copy, shows that this colonization has been going on for four years. Recently, however, a whole boatioad of the Japanese of the more intelligent class went over to Honolulu, and this was the circumstance which opened the eyes of this Government. Among the latest arri- vals were many students from Japanese colleges. Thnese evidentiy dia not go there for the purpose of trying the new coffee boom or of working on the sugar plantations. Before this, however, the Japanese movement had been noted by the repre- sentatives of the Government who came to this country. Among them were Gen- eral Hartwell, who wrote about the abdi- cation which ex-Queen Lilioukalani signed and gave to Attorney-General | Smith of the Hawaiian republic. It was undenied that the object of their visit was to renew interest in the annexation scheme, which was in a fair way to ac- complishment when Mr. Cleveland with- drew the treaty fron. the Senate. The Hawaiian representatives were informed soon after the inauguration of President McKinley that the annexation plans would have to wait till ithe tariff matter was out of the way—that is to say, until it was disposed of by the House. Conferences which have evidently meant nothing have been held between Secretary Sherman and Mr. Hatch and the Attor- | ney-General, although it was stated that | these conferences were merely informal. They have been so informal that General Hartwell, the chief legal adviser of the Dole Government at its formation and who was here on the annexation business, bas left the city and gone to Boston. It was the intention of the Hawaiian repre- sentatives to have the old treaty sent to the Senate, or to ask for a commission, or to have the question of annexation, fail- | ing in botn of the other two plans, openea up in the House. All of these plans, it was siated to-night, have failed. President McKinley and Secretary Sher- man both favor annexation, however, It Mr. McKinley should send the old treaty | to the Senate and it should be disposed | of in short order, us is very likely, considering the temper of the Repub- lican Senators on the question to say | nothing of Democratic support, it would | have to o to the House and Mr. Reed | would have to appoint a committee to consider it. This, however, would run counter to the House programme which Mr. Reed is carrying out, not merely for himself, but for every interest expecting to be benefited by the new tariff bill, Mr. Reed and the House adjournments have cut off the hope of the presentation of the Hawaiian matter by any member of the House, and so the Dole Government | stands, or will stand as long as it can. If it fails, as it1ssaid it may, by reason of its increasing public debt, nothing can pre- | vert first a Japanese protectorate and then | Japanese occupation. | Secretary Sherman was asked to-night | if there was anything new in the sitna- tion. He said that there was nothing at all startling in the present condition of affai. He raid that the going to Hawaii of the Philadelphia was of no importance, orof any other American ships. “Why ships,” he said, ‘'go there every day. PEARY WON'T COME HERE. Friends Interfere to Prevent Clipping of His Wings and Removal to Mare Island Navr-Yard. WASHINGTON, D. C., April 16.—Owing to the intercession of friends of Lieutenant Peary, Secretary Lonz has revoked the order detaching Peary from the Brookiyn Navy-yard and ordering him to the navy-yard at Mare Island. The Arctic explorer's roul is wrapped up in another | expedition for the discovery of the pole. He is particalarly anxious to remain on duty at Brookiyn. The surprise of his friends was great when they read he had been detailed to the Pacific Siope. The investigation led them to beheve that the detail was made for the purpose of clipping Peary’s wings and prevent him geining additional prominence. Charles Moore, Peary’s friend, care to Washington yesterday for the purpose of getting Peary’s orders revoked. He se- cured the co-operation of Senator Hanna and Congressman Wilson. The three had a talk with President McKinley and also Secretary Long. The President said he would find out what could be done. The result was that Secretary Long to-day an- nounced that he bad decided to revoke Peary’s orders, and tnat the explorer will be permitted to remain in the Brooklyn Navy-yard. ——— Aew Officer for the Pacific Goast, WASHINGTON, D.

FRESH BREAKS IN THE LEVEES One Crevasse That Means an Increase of the Floods. It Will Louisiana Parishes and Cover Many Acres. Suffering and Destitution at Davis Island Is Intense and Many Will Perish. VICKSBURG, Miss.,, Aoril 16.—The office at midnight to-night reported that Biggs levee, in Madison Parish, broke at 10 o’clock, and that the break was 100 feet wide twenty minutes later. The breakis four and a half miles south ot Delta, La. The telegraph operator at Delta senta message of warning along the line of the railroad westward. The crevasse will play havoc with many fertile Louisiana par- ishes, covering hundreds of square miles. Deita is the capital of Madison Parich, and as the Biggs vreak is bat two miles south of town it is likely to be inundated by back water before tife immense volume from tbe Mississippi reaches the Macon and Tensas rivers. The Natchez mail steamer St. Josephk arrived to-aay with about 450 persons from Davis Island. Over 200 were rescued from .the flooded island in skiffs. The greater pariof last night was devoted to rescuing helpless colored people. The headquarters of the relief commit- tee has been filled ail day by distressed and hali-starved people begging for bread. The suffering and destitution at Davis Is. land is intense and there is a great pos: bility of a loss of life. The island is twenty-two miles long and many parts of it are not accessible except by small yawls or skiffs. Old river men say when the flood passes away many veople will be missed. OMAHA, NEpg., April 16,.—Daring the night the river rose twoinches, but it is stationary mow at Omaha and falling above. Work on the dykes during the night held back the flood, and this morn- ing it seems the gravest danger is passed. DAVENPORT, 10w, April 16. —A seven- inch rise has brought the waters of the Mississippi to within six inches of the danger line. The rising flood has invaded the cellars of many jobbingz-bouses and the levee is almost entirely under water. Muscatine Island, the great melon-rais- ing ground, is reported to be largely un- der water. Rain continues nearly every day and the situation daily becomes more serious. In the neighborhood of Barlington, Iowa, the river is six miles wide and covers a wide area of valuable bottom farm land in Illinois. The farmers there have given up hope of getting in their crops and much loss will result. The river is still rising. WASHINGTON, D. C., April 16.—Sec- retary Alger has refeived a telegram from one of his inspecting officers at Cairo, who has been working in the Yazoo district, which says: I have completed the in- spection of the upper portion of my dis- trict from Ashport to Cairo and find the conditions slightly improved. The most extensive crevasse below Caruthersville widened to 3200 feet. “The watersare stationary at Cairo, but are rising below there. About 200 rei- ugees from this seciion are collected at points on the high ground. I bave lo- cated and noted the approximate number of established relief stations and com- municated the necessary details to Cap- tain ‘Davis, who is forwarding supplies from Memphis.- This point is the natural center for general distribution by smail semi-weekly packets that know the land- ings and are'expected to be more satisfac- tory and economical than the chartered day by Becretary Gase.

On | the Arkansas side it is reported that there are 5000 destitute and 400 livestock in Phil- | lips and Monroe counties requiring assist- {ance. Thirty to forty davs is the estiv | mated period of time before the laborers | can go to work in the inundated area, but a3 this period will vary with the locality the inspector recommends that no sup- | plies be sent for a longer period than ten days. HANY SEE AN AIRSHIP. | R:putable Citizens of Several States Deciare That Aerial Navigation Is Solved. | BIRMINGHAM, Iowa, April 16.—Wil- | liam Walters, living near this city, is re- sponsible for the statement that he and several others saw an airship settle down | on the meadow a mile from this city this | morning. They ran toward it, but when | within one hundred yards, it rose grace- fully into the air. Two men were plainly | seen in the car. The machine was one | bundred feet long and twenty feet broad in the center, tapering to points. When it ose it made a whirring sound like a circular saw. CLARKSVILLE, Texx., April 16.—Two local warenouse men, tbree merchants | and four city officers saw an airship last | night. They say it was about a mile high and traveled from eastto the northwest. The citizens are waiching for it to-night. LOUISVILLE, Ky., April 16.—The citi- zens of Russelville, the county seat of Logan County, say they saw an airship THAT ALASKA BOUNDARY TREATY Discovery of a “Joker” That Will Delay Its Ratification. Peculiar Clause That Means the Abandonment of Much Territory. Senators Detect the Bait In, Ime to Prevent Some Interesting Complications. WASHINGTON, D. C., April 16.—Mr. Cleveiznd sent to tlie Senate on January 30 the Alaskan boundary convention ar- ranged between Pauncefote, British Min- ister, and Olney, which still remsins un- disposed of. At the opening of the present session Benator Davis, chairman of the Committee on Foreign Relations, ex- plained the treaty at length and urged its speedy ratificstion, stating that by its terms the country would gain a large ed- dition of valuable territory. Stewart ob- jected to the consideration of the treaty at that time. Davis has not since called it up and apparently for good reasons. 1t is now discovered that the third clause in the agreement, by which we were said to gain sbout fourteen square miles of territory through the liverality of the British Government, contained a blow {atal to our interests. Certain Senators, who have been investigating, feel assured that the wordinz of the third clause of the first article providing that notwith- standing the summit of Mount St. Elias is within the Canadian bounds the Cana- dian Government is willing to divide it with the Unrited States is really a bait to entice the United States into a complete abandonment of our *‘ten-marine-league” claim throughout the “‘thirty-mile strip” between the one hundred ana fo meridian, west longitude, and head of Portland Canal. In other words the Canadians propose to put the United States ou record as dividing with them the summit of a mountain that lies within our “thirty- mile strip. Using this point of false departure as a precedeat of our own mak- ing the Canadians would insist upon ap- plying the rule all the way down the coast of the islands and maintain it to the moutb of Portland Canal. The appli- cation of the rule would cost the United States practically all of the territory in that region worth baving and which this Government claims. The summit of Mount St. Elias lies wholly within the intersection of our “‘ten marine leagues’’ line within the one hundred and forty-first meridian. Fol- lowing the official acknowled ment of thst fact it may be found in the Canadian ‘“sessionai” papers and the joint report of the contmissioners appoint- ed under article I of the convention between the United States of America and the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland for the delimitation of the bound- ary line between the United BStates and the Dominion of Canada, dividing Alaska from British Columbia. The report shows | that the summit of Mount St. Elias is in, by best determination, latitude 60.17 35.10 and longitude 140.55 47.32, being 28.830 nautical miles from the line of tae coast | west of Yakatat Bay and 241 statute miles east of the oue hundred and forty-first meridian. The report 1s signed by W. W. Duffield, United States Commis- sioner, and W. F. King, her Majesty's Commissioner. TO SAVE Tht FUR SEALS.

Smedberg of California was to- day appointed on the Board of Visitors to the West Point Academy. Colonel W. R. Smedberg has been re- corder of the Loyal Legion, Commandery of California, since the order was organ- ized in this State. He is a past depart- ment commander of the Grand Army of the Republic.

BOSTON, Mass., April 16.—Adah Rich- mond is not the lawful widow of John Stetson Jr., because when he was married | to her in Providence in 1870 he was the legal husband of Maivina Woodsum. This is, in brief, the decision rendered by Judge Morton to-day. He says in part: “The first thing to be determined is bow far the appellant is bound to go in showing that she is the widow of the testator. I think that she is not bound to establish conclusively that there was a valid marriage subsisting at the death of Stetson, but that it should appear with at least a reasonable degree of certainty that | such was the case. I am not satistied that | it does so gppear. The marriage which is : alieged to have taken viace In Providence, R. L, in December, 1870, was invalid by reason of the fact that Stetson had a former wife then living and undivorced. In addition I am not satisfied that there wus any such ceremony. Neitheram 1 satisfied that the cohabitation in New York was of a matrimonial charaster. Her home has been for twenty years in New York. There is no evidence that during that time she made any claim that iv was with Stetson or that he was bound to furnish her one. The conduct of Stet- son also seems inconsistent with a belief that there was a valid marriage. If there was then his marriage to Kate Stokes was | willfully pigamous, which is hardly to ne; presumed even in his case.” i The case will be appealed on exceptions. | The estate is valued at $500,000, and goes by the decision to the §tokes family.

CHICAGO, IrL, April 16.—It is feared that several vessels were lost in a terrific | storm which raged on Lake Michigan to- day and that many persons have zone to the bottom. The steamer Frank Woods, which left St. Joseph Thursday morning for Milwaukee, has not been heard from since. Captain Britton and sixteen others were on board. Scores of steam and sail- ing vessels were caught in the tempest, and fears are entertained for their saicty. | last night. Mayor Andrews, City Clerk McCutchen, James McCatchen, the olaest and wealthiest merchant in the city, and Dr. Charles Forthand, men of unqu tioned standing, deciars they saw the strange aerial cruiser circle around the city for ten minutes before sailing off to the west. WATERLOO, Iowa, April 16,—This sec- tion 1s much excited oyer an airship or flving machine, which was first observed here at daybreak to-day. The stranger in charge says 1t is a flying machine and that he Janded here to make revairs. He will resume his voyage to-morrow. He keeps all the people at a distance of several hun- dred yards from the macnine, and there- fore many do not credit his story, but think it a fake designed to create a sensa- tion. Just what object the man has to gaID is & mystery, as he has not asked for money from the hundreds who have vis- ited the field o take a look &t the thing. It is about forty feet long and constructed like a giant cigar, with winglike attach- ments on the side and a steering apparatus in the rear. The whole is surmounted by a cupola or lookout chair on the roof. The queer craft appears to be built of canvas, subjected to a heavy coat of varnish. The pipe leading from the cone of the thing constantly emits a vapor, as if the motor po! were steam, The man in charge is astranger in this section and carriesa rifle to keep the people from too closely examining the machine. He secured per- mission from the farmer on whose land be is to keep his machine for a few days. The man says he is on a voyage around the world, but was forced to slight for re- pairs, and that if the people do not believe be can fly through the uir they can waita day or two and he will give them a very startling free exhibition. Late to-night the owner told 8 straight story of how, in company with a Mr. Stormont, he left San Francisco March 20, and gave every detail of the voyage up to the time of landing. It is said now the whole affair is a hoax and the machine was buii by a local wag for the purpose of creating a sensation. ST. LOUIS, Mo., April 16.—An airship ain last night.

The surface of the body being chilled, the pores are closed and clogged, and im- purities which might pass off in perspiration are forced back into the blood. Besides this, winter’s hearty food, fats and sweets, contribute more impurities. This briefly explains the existence of Spring Humors—those unsightly erup- tions, painful boils, annoying pimples and other affections, which make abso- lutely necessary the use of Hood’s Sar- saparilla at this season. But with some people impurities in the blood cause very different symptoms. The kidneys, liver and bowels are over- matched in their efforts to relieve the clogged system. ious attacks, failure of appetite, coated tongue, lame back, indigestion or that tired feeling are some of the results. From the same cause may also come scrofula, neuralgia, sciatica or rheuma- tism. All these troubles and more may properly be called “Spring Humors,” and just as there is one cause a cure is found in just one remedy, and that is Hood’s Sarsa- parilla, the great Spring Medicine. After the grip, diphtheria, scarlet fever and other prostrating and blood poisoning diseases Hood’s Sarsaparilla is of in- estimable value. It purifies, vitalizes and enriches the blood, creates an appe- tite, tones the stomach and builds up the whole system, For your Spring Medicine—to prevent or cure Spring Humors and build up your health, take died this morning at Ashville from pneu- monia, aged 84 Senator Hauna arrived to-d y the remains y and will accom pan; to Cleveland, where they will be interred.
