The most important warrant issued | to-day was for Joseph E. Valentine, nt of the Iron Molders’ Union of America, but as he is out of the city service upon h: could not be had. Valentine telegraphed from Cleveland that he would be here to-morrow. The headquarters of the Iron Molders’ | Union are in this city, and it ia claimed | that President Valentine has been di- recting the strike that has been in pro-| gress in Cincinmati, Covington' and| Newport for several months. During | that time there have been disturbances at different foundries and on the streets | of these cities. On October 7 Samuel | Weakley, a non-union molder, was killed and Frank Brown, who accom- panied Weakley, narrowly escaped from the strikers who assaulted them. In| the past few days the situation be- came more threatening around the foundries, and attempts were made last night to blow up two of them with dy- namite, one in this city and the other in Newport, Ky. No arrests have been made in Newport, although the situa- tion is more threatening there than in any other locality. The arrest of the Rauhausers, father and son, in this city, charged with dynamiting the Eureka foundry, and their alleged confessions implicating others, promise sensational develop- ments. It is alleged by detectives that a plot to poison non-union men at their board- ing-house was to have gone into e to-morrow night.

SAN BERNARDINO, Nov. 22.—Hi- ram J. Kohlstedt’s five-year-old daugh- ter was fatally burned while playing with matches in a corner of the yard to-day. The little one’s clothing caught fire. Her screams attracted her moth- er, who tried to extinguish the flames by rolling the little one in the dust, but the fire had gained too much headway to be smothered in this way. The mother picked the little one up in her arms and #n to the house for water, | tearing the clothes from the child's body as she ran. A physiclan hurriedly placed the little sufferer under the influence of opiates ‘and it was found that on one side she had been burned so deeply that one of the ribs was exposed. When the doctor turned to the swooning mother it was seen that she, too, had been most seriously burned about the breast, and her arms, from the hands to the shoulders, were seared by the flames she had fought to save her baby. .

MRS. MOODY IS CONTRADICTED o+ roponents have thus far met the contentions of contestant as follows: Watson, who witnessed the execution of the willy testified that Miss Dolbeer was sane at the time. Sutton saw Miss Dolbeer immediately after she signed the will and she appeared then to be in good spirits, conversing happily and being in normal frame of mind. Mrs. Sands W. Forman, who was an intimate friend, Douglas Sloane Watson and Arthur B. | Arthur did not notice *“anything strange or unusual in her manner or appearance during the last year of her life.” Mrs. Forman, who received a call from Miss Dolbeer the day after the making of the will, also contradicted the testimony of Mrs. J. L. Moody that the testatrix acted that day as if mentally deranged. | \BRSHP I\ HORSE 1N DISPUTE Kings of Finance May Strive in | Court, | Pierpont Morgan Threatens| to File Suit Against | a Vanderbilt.

WASHINGTON, Nov. ?2.—OCfficial announcement was made to-day that Governor Brady will be reappointed ' Governor of Alaska. Mrs. Sands W. Forman was the principal witness in the trial of the Dolbeer will contest yesterday. She had been on terms of close friendship with Bertha Dolbeer and frequently met her in society. Their Intimate relations continued till the time of Miss Dolbeer’s departure for Europe. Mrs. Forman's testimony was strong to the effect that there was absolutely no ground for the allegation that the | Her | testimony was in strong contradiction | of that of Mrs. J. L. Moody, the aunt | mind of the testatrix was failing. of Miss Dolbeer, who was a witness for contestant. Mrs. Forman was the first on the! stand of the women prominent in so- clety who have been subpenaed in the case. There is much among them all over the ordeal await- ing them in the witness chair, but Mrs. trepidation | the other witness to the instrument. The testimony of these two wit- nesses strongly combated that of the contestant’s. Hiram Johnson was at his best in the cross-examination of them, but despite his keen ability he could make no material headway in weakening the effect of what they told the jury. SOCIETY IN STRONGER FORCE. Society came in stronger numbers yesterday to listen to the proceedings. There were more charming women and two men were conspicuous in the courtroom.
