The assailants escaped. i ST.

DEATH CALLS CONNECTICUT’S SENIOR SENATOR| WASHINGTON, Conn.,, April 21.— United States Senator Orville Hitch- cock Platt of Connecticut died at his summer home in Washington, his na- tive town, at 8:53 to-night.

He stood in the railway station at Hartford for | some time awaiting the arrival of the ! train on which General Hawley's body ' was brought from Washington. During the wait he complained of a slight chill, in consequence of which, after the ex- | ercises at the Capitol he returned di- rect to his country home in Washing- { ton. On Friday, March 31, the Senator was taken with the illness which proved fatal. The first attack was of bronchitis-pneumonia_of ,a cof ras tively slight nature. This jvas follwed on April 4 by a second infection which lasted for about a week. On April 11 he showed signs of improvement, so that hopes of his recovery were enter- tained, but soon after an abscess de- veloped and on April 18 he had a bad chill. The following day his physi- cians and nurses feared it would be the end, but he rallied from that attack. Other chills, however, followed at in- tervals, culminating in a partteular]; severe one this forenoon between 9 -.nz 11 o’clock. Although the sick man seemed to rally somewhat from this at- tack and became comfortable during the afternoon, it was evident that his life was ebbing away. His physician at 8:45 o’clock stated that the end would come with another chill and that the thread life would snap suddenly. This 'ved to be the case and a few minutés later Senator Platt’s life was ended. BTG e ‘Earl of Chichester Is Dead. LONDON, April 21.—The Harl of Chichester (Rev. Francls Godolphin Pelham), is dead.

It includes M. | Stichinsky, formerly chief adjutant of | the Russian Interior Department; M. von Plehwe, son of the late Interior Minister, and other adherents of the former Minister, giving it a decided re- actionary tone.

WARSAW, April 2.—Russian offi- cialdom’s latest victim is a girl of seventeen, Angele Zochowski, who has just died as the result’ of barbafous| saw prison. 3 It will be recalled that during the recent riots ‘in Warsaw many of the school 'children struck the only means they had of showing how passionately they sided with their parents in their struggles against the oppressor. With this juvenile protest, Angele Zochow- gki, who was a pupil of the Second Gymnasium, as it is called, was asso- ciated. She was promptly arrested and | placed in solitary confinement, after which the police officials set to work to terrify her into telling who were the ringleaders of the ‘“‘strike.” As Angele steadfastly refused, they | kept her short of food and water, and when, after a course of this treat- ment, she still held out, she was beaten several times a day. Her health gave, way under this brutal handling and now she is dead, but she breathed her last without telling her murderers what they wanted to know. Warsaw, already on the point of re- volt against Russian rule, has been in flamed almost to madness by the fate of this unfortunate child. To add to| the horror of the story, nineteen other girls of the same school are still in [§I0NS SPLIT ON SOCIALISY Special Dispateh to The Call. DENVER, April 21.—Denver is to be the scene of a great-struggle for su- premacy between rival labor organi- zations, one friendly to the cause of Socialism and the other opposed.to it. The organizations are the ‘American Federation of Labor and the American Labor Union. D. C. Coates, acting president ¢f the latter, is here now. President Gompers of the former .is coming in a few days. The Coates or- ganization controls the Colorado State federation and Gompers will endeavor to organize a rival State federationm; admitting only such unions as will re- nounce the American Labor Union. Back of the fight is a plan to secure control of the Chicago convention June 27, which s expected to unify all labor unions in the country. The two na- tional organizations are split on So- clalism. Coates, representing the West- ern cne, which is friendly to Social- ism, says Gompers will be defeated. The Western Federation of Miners is junder the charge of the United States Should this be true it might indicate that the Government is disposed to ac- cept the programme proposed by the National Progressive party at Moscow, of which Shipoff is the head.

Over a score of clerks and other employes of the packers told the Grand Jury what they knew of this branch of the pack- ing industry. Chief Jochn E. Wilkie of the United States Secret Service Bureau, who is in Chicago, en route to the Philippines, said to-day that he had learned that certain packers and their attorneys had questioned the right of the United States Secret Service Department to mdke an investigation in conjunction with the Federal Grand Jury. The packers, Chief Wilkie said, contended that the Secret Service Department is cember 11 have been sentenced to from three to four months' imprisonment.

She has also ad- dressed several letters to us, but I never thought she would dare to come to San Francisco and boldly register under my son's name at a hotel. If my husband were here I know he would take steps toward punishing the woman."” This was the declaration made yes- terday by Mrs. Henry E. Huntington, wife of the Los Angeles street railway magnate and vice president of the Harriman lines, when she was advised at her home on Jackson street that the woman who last week caused a sensation in San Bernardino by secur- ing a license to marry Howard E. Huntington, the millionaire’s son, had arrived at the Palace and registered under the name of “Mrs. Howard E. Huntington, Los Angeles.” The identity of the woman at the Palace has been established as that of Mrs. E. E. Crandall, divorced wife of one of Los Angeles’ wealthy mer- chants. Her recent action in San Ber- nardino, coupled with her previous movements, have convinced many that her mind is unbalanced. She is many years older than Howard E. Hunting- ton, who has emphatically stated that he can find no reason why she should have annoyed himself and family. When she arrived in San Bernardino last week she registered at the Hotel Stewart as “Mrs. H. E. Huntington,” and her Inquirfes regarding young Huntington gave rise to a rumor that she had been secretly married t& the millionaire’s son. The latter was at the time in this city and stoutly denied that he knew the woman. It {s suspected that Mrs. Crandall came to San Francisco belleving that young Huntington was still here, but it was learned yesterday that he had departed for Los Angeles. Mrs. Crandall, apparently possessed of ample funds and dressed in a man- ner that attracted general attention, flitted about the Palace yesterday, but when interviewers sought to get a statement from her she begged to be excused on the ground of “pressing en- gagements.” Young Huntington's engagement to Miss Graves, a belle of Lés Angeles, was announced a short time ago and seems to have caused some concern to Mrs. Crandall, who has since frequent- 1y made inquiries regarding the pair, much to the annoyance of the Hunt- ingtons. e e HELD FOR IDENTIFICATION.—Willtam Fisher, who was arrested in Sacramento on suspicion of being the man who robbed Miss Malaney Sperry. a domestic at 1527 ©O'Farrell streets, of $80 on March 6, is being held by the police pending further investigation.
