Stillman Con- fesses to the Theft . - of $40,000. Authorities Believe, However, That He Stole a Much P Larger Sum. NEW YORK, Oct. 2.—Claude L. Still- man, assistant secretary of the Murphy Varnish Company of Newark, and private secretary to Governor Mur- phy of New Jersey, has con- fessed to having stolen $40,000 from the company he served, but it is feared his opposition because none of the propositions | ecognize that.this i5 the case in our own body | | ject we have in view,” pilferings amount to a much larger sum. It is now charged that during June and the first two weeks of July of the pres- ent year Stillman succeeded in robbing his employers of $30,000. It is a singular coincidence that Mrs. Elka Gordon. the woman with whom Stillman was infatu- ated, late in July purchased the house in One Hundred and First street in which she is now living and paid $30,000 for it. The house was handsomely furnished -at a cost of about $6500. During the last two weels of July and the month of Septem- ber Stillman is sald te have stolen $5000 from the firm which empioyed him. There was much activity to-night at the home of Mrs. Elka Gordon. Just at dusk a big truck drove up in front of the house and took away about $3000 worth of beautiful furniture, Then a cab drove up and in it were placed scveral fine oil paintings. The cab drove away and re- turned to take another load of paintings. It is believed she anticipates legal pro- ceedings by the Murphy Varnish Com- pany to recover a part or Stillman’s loot. Colonel H. I Kowalsky wishes it un- derstood that he is not Stillman’s attor- ney. He met Stillman at a hotel in New York, considered him a good fellow and was friendly with him in a casual way.

Redmond Makes +Reply to :'E‘a.rnell’s Sister. Memorial to the Late Irish Leader Will Be Erected : in Dublin, NEW YORK, Oct. 27.—John E. Red- mond of the Irish Parliamentary partx made a statement to-day concerning the funds collected .to purchase the Parnell estate, and when that plan fell through to erect a Parnell monument. In a letter to the Irish Times, Mrs. Dickinson, a sis- ter of Charles Stewart Parnell, demanded an accounting from Redmond. A London dispatch on Saturday last said that Mrs. Dickinson had made public all the cor- | respondence she had with mond on the subject. Redmond's states t to-day follows: The funds collected by Lord Mayor Tallon and myself never at any time passed through my hands. They went to the Parnell momu- ment committee in Dublin and have been in- vested in Government stack for the treasurers of the committee by the most eminent stock broker in Dublin, James McCann. As far as T know, the only actual expenditure has been in the purchase of a bramze bust of Parnell, which was required by the sculptor who is making the monument, and in the purchase of the Avondale library. These funds col- | lected for the purpose of creating a orial to Parnell. This memdrial was to consist of a monument_in Dublin and if possible the ‘pur- s chase gg the mansion house of Avondale, to be held War the nation. At the sale of fthe. estate two years ' ago the committee bid for the house, but were, outbid by 4 Dublin butcher, who paid for the whole estate, including the house. It afterward transpired that he was acting in unison with John Parneil and thut he pald the latter §10,000 in addition to the $40,000 paid as the price of the estate. It being no longer possible’to purchase the hopse, the committee made a contract with Augustus St. Gaudens to bulld the monument. There has been some regrettable delay, but the model is now complete and St. Gaudens is coming here to-morrow to show it to me. hope the work will now proceed rapidly and that the monument will soon be in its place. The funds at hand are not enough to complets the payment for the monument, but there will appointed, who should analyzes the state- ment made by both sides to the contro- versy and verify the facts for the con- sideration of the commissiofi. . Baer promptly accepted this sugges- tion and Mitchell followed suit after a brief explanation on his part. He said that the plan was not entirely In accord with the wishes of the miners, who are anxious to avoid all controversy as to the interpretation of figures. President Gray then announced that the commissioh for the present would pro- ceed without appointing an expert, but that it would require that a statement should be prepared and then, he added, an accountant should be secured in case i it was found his services were needed. EXAMINATION OF MINES. The question of the examination by the commission into the conditions under which the mining of anthracite coal was conductéd was then entered on and Wat- kins of the comnfisston, suggested that a week or ten days’ time would be neces- sary in order to make an adequate ex- amination of the physical conditions of the mines. He appealed to Thomas for his opinion as to the time necessary and that gentleman replied: “You will certainly need that much time; I should, think that thirty days would be none too little. We've grown gray in our study of thal question.” Baer also fell in with the sibggestion, saying that it would be impossible to do Justice to the investigation without a complete inspection of the mines and the methods of operating them. Mitchell thougkt ihat not only should there be an inspection of the mines, but | also of the homes of the miners. He con- sidered this investigation necessary to a complete understanding of the suhject. After consulting the members of, the commission, President Gray announced that it would begin its inspection next Thursday, commencing its work in Dis- trict No. 1, in which the city of Scranton is located. While no conclusion was reached on the subject, the conversation among the members of the commission Indicated that it is their purpose to in- vestigate the mining operations in a num- ber of the mines. REFUSE A SPECTAL TRAIN. ‘While the subject was up, Baer said the mine operators would furnish all' facili- ties at their command to enable the com- mission to make its investigation thor- ough, adding that they would place a special train at the disposal of the com- mission, providing for the transportation of a representative of the miners. The meeting then came to a close and the members retired for the purpose of a private conversation. They first took up the subject of the question which had been raised by the proffer of a special train by Baer and decided not to accept the train. ‘The exchange of views which followed brought out the fact that the commisisoners expect personally to pay all of their expenses, accepting no favors and relying on the Government to reim- burse them if so disposed. Official stenographers to report the pro- ceedings of ‘the commission and also sec- retaries for the members of the commis- sion were appointed. An agreement was reached to leave the Hotel Jermyn in Scranton at 9 o'clock next Thursday morning for the first tour of inspectign. There was, however, Qo agreement as Yo what mines should be visited first, that point being left for future determination, COAL IS BEING MINED, WILKESBARRE, Pa., Oct. 27.—More coai was mined and more men were em- ployed in mining it to-day than any day since the mines in the anthracite region résumed work. The only districts that lag behind in the output are the Lehigh and Mahanoy. The individual operators and thelr employes in those districts are still at loggerheads. In the Wyoming and Lackawanna regions all the collieries are in operation, with the exception of a few which are still under water. The Dela- ware, Lackawanna and Western, the Dol- aware and Hudson, the Lehigh Valley, the Temple Coal and Iron Company, the Lehigh and Wilkesbarre, the Erie’ and Ontario and ‘Western all’ had large out- puts to-day, and heavy trains of coal were moving rapldly to seaboard points. | The miners afnd laborers who left ths' region during the strike are returning in large numberss There was no call for troops to-d: any of the mines. i —_— s Ticket Broker Machold Is Rejeased.

The -gun shop at the Washington navy yard during the past year turned out 234 guns, prepared sets of forgings for 146 more and has sixty-five in course of manufacture. The bureau is preparing a new type of three-inch gun, fifty caliber in length, of a semi-auto- matic character, to replace all guns of this size now in use in the navy. Admiral O'Neill says that for the first time in years the manufacture of armor has progressed in a satisfactory manner, 7612 tons ‘having been delivered at the various shipyards during the year, with prospects of largely increasing the deliveries. Guns, powder and projectiles have each made a decided advance, rendering it all the more | necessary thaty there should be an im- provement in the quality of the armor, but nene seems to be in sight at present. Recently the armor manufacturers yol- untarily made a reduction of 10 shillings per ton on the royalty for the Krupp process. ‘With the exception of ignition and shell powder no black or other than smokeless powder has been purchased or manufac- tured for .the navy since fhe Spanish- American war. So far as thé stability of the -smokeless powder is concerned the results of the year’s work have been of the most satisfactory character, and with few exceptions the ballistic qualities of the powder have remained unchanged. A novel experiment is now under way with the purpose of indicating any in- jurious change that may take place in smokeless powder by incorporating in it a fugitive coloring matter, such as rosa- nanine, NEW TYPE OF SHELL. The most interesting event during the year in connection with projectiles is the develonment of a new type of shell, com- bining the advantages of the armor piercing with the . common shell— that is, having the perforating power of the regular armor-piercing projectileswith e capacity for a large bursting charge. The requirements of these shells on test are that at a prescribed velocity they shall completely perforate, unbroken, a plate of hard-faced armor, a caliber dn thickness, and then be in a condition for effective bursting. A number of shells of this description have been ordered and the first three lots have successfully passed the requirements. These shells are fitted with soft caps. A novel device tried during the year was the ‘“tracer,” which renders a shell visible during the night to the gunner, but invisible to the persons_at the target, this being accomplished by the insertion of a burning composition in the base of the shell. &‘ The use of elecf¥ic power for handling guns and turrets is unqualifiedly indorsed ab better than any other system. ' Admiral O'Neill finds that the best way to illustrate the tremendous development | of artillery in late years is to cite two | cases, those of the six-inch gun and the twelve-inch gun. The former used to weigh only 4.8 tons, was only thirty cali- bers in length, with a muzzle energy of 2773-feet tons and a practicable rate of fire of two and a half aimed shots per minute. The new) type is fifty calibers in length, uses smokeless powder, welghs eight tons, can be fired eight times per minute and hag a muzzle energy of 5846- feet tons. In other words, it is 600 per cent more powerful than the old gun. The twelve-inch gun shows an increase in en- ergy over the 8ld gun of 35% per cent. Admiral O’Neill says that no such rate of increase is looked for in the near fu-| ture. RENOVATION OF BATTERIES. There is to be a general renovation of the batteries of the older ships, and it is said that new batteries will be placed on | the Baltimore, Newgrk and Albany. It is recommended that the Philadelphia be given a new battery of six-inch guns, which would make her fit for many years | more of service. The bureau Is consider- | ing the feasibility of replacing the pres- ent turrets of the Oregon, Indiana and | Massachusetts with new elliptical bal- anced turrets, adding materially to their efficiency. Admiral O'Neill has much to say re- specting speed versus armament. He ar- gues that a ship is naturally a compro- mise between various necessities, and says: All natfons are afflicted with the speed | craze at intervals, and this country s no | exception, and unless each batch of new vas- | sels can equal or beat the world's record th: are usually characterized as failures, and i deference to_public sentiment the teadency i to design vessels of the highest possible speed, | irrespective of the uses for which they are intended and it consequently secems more money has been expended by several countries | in producing large and fast vessels which have | but trifiing value for fighting purposes and | to-day it requires no little moral courage on ! the part of th® designers to subordinate th> | popular element of speed to other qualities, no matter how Important the latter may. be. It has always,been the policy of the United States to_ proville its vessels of all classes with great battery arms, that is, to arm them | %o they ,hall be superior to foreign vesseis | of equal class in that respect, and that senti- | ment still prevails; and while we have, in a few instances, subordinated all other ele- | ments to speed, it is not likely to occur again, and the consensus of opinion at the present time is in favor of applying large percentages of welght for armor and armament rather than to assigning it for the purposs of at- taining the last possible, fraction of a knot o 13 ; INSTRUCTIONS IN GUNNERY. bureau_is convinced that no mistake han etn made In the adjustment of speed, | armor and armament of these vessels. The | best vessel is not necessarily the cne that can most quickly get in or out of battle or Wceep out of battle, but is rather the one that can remain in battle the longest after she ze;: t1‘-’”;[& to say that any vessels of this class, of equal displacement, having a higher Speed, are deficlent in some of the other im- Portant qualities which these vessels possess. Of submarine boats the report .says no complete developments have taken place during the . past year, either here or abroad, though quite a number of those vessels have been built or are in course of construction. The seven boats ordered for the United States navy are nearly fnished and will soon have their official trials. 2 Admiral O'Neill went to Europe last summer and looked over the great naval ordnance works there. He says he was \leeply impressed with what he saw, but n.akes no comparisons between the differ- ent establishments, merely remarking that different methods, all equally good, are preferred in different countries with respect to gun construction. He declares, however, that while there are no such establishments in this country in point of size and capacity as many of the ord- nance factories of Europe, it is gratify- ing to know that such as we have 2 not suffer in comparison with any of them in regard to the character of the*work or method of performing it.

DENVER, Oct. 2.—The Times this evening says: The fight for control of the Colorado Fuel and Iron Company will be ‘rans- ferred to St. Louls next week, when an application will be made in the Circuit Court of Appeals for a writ of super- sedeas, which will have the effect, if it is granted, of staying all proceedings un- ti the case can be heard on its merits. The action will probably be brought in the name of George F. Bartlett, who in- tervened in the previous case aund pre- vented the holding'of the annual meeting. 1f the court grants the writ it will have the effect of preventing the holding of the annual meeting of the company fixed for December 10 by Judge Caldwell. The case will then be taken to the Court of Appeals and heard on its merits. It will probably be several months before it can te reached. In the meantime the present management will remain in undisturbed possession of the organization and will have that much more time in which to prepare for the fight when the meeting is finally held. At the local offices of the company it is still maintained that the officials of the company are taking no part in any effort to stop the annual meeting. They will appeal the case to the Circuit Court of Appeals, but beyond that they will take no action looking. to a stay of the order issued by Judge Caldwell. : PR S A PORTLAND, Ore..
