NOTTINGHAM, England, March 11. —A militant suffragette “arson squad” during the night set fire to and de- atroyed all the bulldings belonging Had in the Club to the Poor. Charles F. Murphy did not appear to-day to be very much shocked by the fact that he and several other men Prominent in Tammany Hall had been @ropped last night from the roll of the Democratic Club for being behind in the payment of dues. Mayor Mitchel wasn't wildly excited over the incident. He didn’t seem to consider it a great political coup. “It I were after a man I'd find o better cause for firing members of a club than those given by the men who ousted Murphy and his friends. And it strikes me they had better cause,” wald the Mayor. Charles F, Murphy, leader of Tam. | many Hall, emiled broadly when he was asked to-day how he felt after being dropped from the Democratic Club, He replied: “Quite well and healthy, thanks.” To this he added: “I've been a member of the club for aixteen or eighteun years, and this ia the firat time I have failed to re- ceive a notice of dues, I've always paid promptly, too, as the books of the club will show.” “Do you contemplate any action looking to forcing the club to rescind what it has done?" he was asked. “This is the time of economy,” he replied. “I'll take that $50, I guess, and buy two acres down at Good Ground.” It was pointed out to Mr. Murphy that he might have an equity of perhaps $2,000 in the club, and to this he said: “Let those who want it take it. As for my interest, I'd give it to the poor.” “Do you contemplate starting a Democratic Club of your own?” “There's one right here,” he an- swered, patting his desk. “The act of the club will not inter- with your uplift Work, will it?” “Oh, no.

Vogelbach hurried down- ataire and reached the door just in time to hear the report of the shot by which Price sent a bullet into his right temple, killing himself in- stantly. Wellington Morse said that his mother had turned Price out three weeks ago because his attentions to her had become eo marked as to be unpleasant. Price took a room down stairs and seemed to have accepted Morse's refusal to see him again. He worked for Armour & Company at Eleventh avenue and Thirty-sixth street and got back from work about 1,80 o'clock each afternoon. To-day he rang the Morse's bel] and to Mrs. Morse, who opened the door, he said: “Why don't you give a fellow a square deal?” “What do you mean, give you a square deal?” she asked in surprise. “I'll show you," he said, and drew) @ revolver, The report of the firat shot which struck Mrs...

The bullet entered her cheek. Young Morse close behind Price threw himself on the man before he could fire again and fighting and struggling they worked their way out into the hall. There Price broke away and darted downstairs while Welling- ton ran to the window and called for help. Dr, Delamater took Mra. Morse to the Knickerbocker Hospital. He said he thought she would recover though her wounds were serious. Mrs, Morse is about forty years old, Price was several years her junior.
