QUAY m WASHINGTON.

The Boss Urges the Claims of State
Senator Snylor.

Washington, Oct. 22.——Senators Quay
and Penrose were at the White House
yesterday morning. They saw the Pres-
ident, and, it is asserted, urged the
claims of State Senator Saylor for rec-
ognition. Both Senators refused to dis-
cuss the object of their visit or the re-
sult of their interview with the Presi-
dent, but it is understood, among other
matters which were talked over, the
appointment of Internal Revenue Col-
lectors came in for a share of the dis-
cussion.

Senator Quay while in the city is
Stopping at his private residence.
Wednesday night he received many
distinguished visitors from the Key-
stone State. Among his callers were
Senator Penrose, Congressman Wan-
ger, State Senators Saylor and Dur-
ham, James B. Holland and State
Chairman Elkins. The latter gentle-
man is still mentioned in connection
with a collectorship for the Western
district of the State.

Senators Quay and Penrose and most
of the party of Pennsylvanians with
him are expected to leave for home to-
night. Congressman Connell, of the
Scranton district, was also in the city
yesterday. He was at the different de-
partments looking after the interests of
his constituents. The Congressman is
prominently mentioned in connection
with the nomination for the Governor-
ship of Pennsylvania Connell is a
Quay man and is recognized as one of
his trusted lieutenants.

 

POLICE AFTER STUYVESANT.

“’omnn Says She Heard the Mnlatto
Threaten to Kill Wilson.

Philadelphia, Oct. 22.——Sarah Young,
a woman who has .been living with
Marlon Stuyvesant, the mulatto porter
who was charged with murdering his
employer, Maj. William C. Wilson, the
librarian, but who was discharged by
the Grand Jury, called at the office of
the Detective Bureau Wednesday and
declared that she had lied to get Stuy-
vesant out of prison, and that she had
once heard him threaten to kill Wilson.

The chief of the bureau was in the
office when the woman called, and she
made her declaration to the bystand-
ers.

When Director Ritter and Supt. Lin-
den were told what the young woman
had said, she was not to be found.

Detectives were sent to look for her
and Stuyvesant, and it was found that
the rooms where they had lived were
deserted and that they had both disap-
peared. .

The woman returned early yesterday
morning, and the detectives stood
guard over her. She was afterward
taken to the City Hall to be ques—
tioned. The police are still looking for
Stuyvesant.

GEN. BLANCO'S PLANS. "“i"
Goes to Cuba Full of Confidence in
the New Programme.
Madrid, Oct. 22.-—-A dispatch from Co-
runnasays that Marshall Blanco, prior
to embarking for Havana to assume
his new responsibility as Captain—Gen-

era] of Cuba, made the following state-.

ment:

“I go to Cuba with full confidence in
the'lefiiciency of the new programme to
insure immediate and certan‘r success.
My military and political actions I
shall develop simultaneously.

."So as to have more time for politi-
cal affairs, I wished to be accompanied
by generals like Gen. Parrado, who, as
second in command, will be at the front
of the military action, and Gen. Pmdo.
who will direct the campaign at the
head of the army.

f‘I cannot fix a date for the termina-
tion of the war. One of my generals
has expressed himself as confident of
returning victorious in seven months.
Matters might take a turn to confirm
this surmise, but, if all ends well, it
will make no difference even if we do
take a little longer to reach peace.”

 

BAD FOOD CAUSES RIOT.

Nine Hundred Laborers on a Darn
Near New York Strike.

Croton Landing, .N. Y., Oct. 22.——A
riot and strike of 900 men were precipi-
tated by the workmen on the New
Cornell dam yesterday because of the
quality of the food supplied by the con-
tractors’ boarding house.

When the whistle blew in the morn;
ing about three hundred men employed
in the quarry hoisted a red flag, threw
down their tools, and, armed with clubs
and stones, started over the works.

They first visited the sand pit, where
about eightymen are employed. The
eighty at once joined with the quarry
gang.

The reinforced strikers then proceed-
ed to the main works, where about five.
hundred men were working. They or-
dered the men to stop work, and, upon
refusal, began throwing large stones
down on the mason work among the
men.

In ten minutes there was not one man
working on the new Cornell dam out of
the 900 employed there.

Street Railway Convention.

Niagara Falls, N. Y., Oct. 22.—-Mem-
bers of the American Street Railway
Association yesterday briefly discussed
the compensation paid by the Govern-
ment for carrying mail on trolley cars,
and it was made clear that there is a
lack of uniformity, which the associa-
tion will endeavor to adjust. The most
interesting paper of the day was by H.
N. Heft, of Meriden, Ct., who dwelt at
length on the application of electricity
to roads now operated by steam
through the third-rail system.

New Steamer Line to St. Michael’s.

Victoria, B. C., Oct. 22.—Victoria is to
be headquarters for one of the largest
organizations that has yet entered the
Klondike business. H. R. Ward is here
arranging for the Union Steamship
Company and the Shaw-Savill Steam-
ship Company, of Great Britain, for a
line of first-class steamers to run be-
tween Victoria and St. Michael’s, to
connect with the Yukon boats.

The first of these steamers will leave
London next month, and others. will
leave at intervals, all bringing passen-
gers.

IVIGR. sci-Incense RESIGNS.

Victory for the Liberals in (In

Catholic University.

Washington, Oct. 22.——The Board 01
Control issued a statement late yester-
day afternoon to the effect that the
Schroeder case has been “amicably set-
tled.”

This is taken to mean that the board
has backed down from its original plar.
of first discharging Schroeder and then
letting the case go to Rome on briefs
It will now let the offending professor
remain undisturbed until the Pope has
passed on the evidence.

Washington. Oct. 22.'—The Board
of Directors of the Catholic University
yesterday held fast to their contention
that for the peace of the university
and of the Catholic Church in this
country, Mgr. Schroeder, the professor
of dogmatic theology, -.must leave the
institution. So firm were the opponents
to Schroeder in their demands for his
removal, and so strong were the in-

fluences brought to bear, that when
the final vote was taken only
one vote was cast in favor

of Mgr. 'Schroeder’s retention. This
is the most notable victory which
the liberal element of the Church has
obtained. It is remarkable for the dis-
play of backbone by the directors. As
told in these dispatches yesterday, they
had determined to regard the cable-
gram signed with the name of Cardinal
Rampolla, the Papal Secretary of
State, and the Steinhu-be letter as un-
official, both of which represented that
the Pope did not want Mgr. Schroeder
remov'ed, and in the face of these docu-
ments they proceeded to exercise their
rights and prerogatives as the admin-
istrative head of the university, and
demanded the resignation of the Ger-
man professor.

 

TO BENEFIT AGRICULTURE.

Proposal in Germany to Terminatq
Treaty with Us.

(Cable Dispatch to the New York Sun.)

Munich, Oct. 22,—The Lower House
of the Bavarian Diet yesterday dis-
cussed proposals made by Herr Ratz-
inger designed to benefit agriculture.
The proposal included a denunciation
of the ”most favored nation” treaty
with the United States, and, if possi-
ble, the similar treaties with other
transatlantic nations, especially Ar-
gentina. I-Ierr Ratzrnger urged that
new treaties should ,be negotiated, and
an increase be made in the corn and
timber duties.

Baron von Grailsheim, the Prime
Minister, contended that the interests
affected by the treaty with the United
States were not so great as was fre-
qeuntly represented. The whole cir-
cumstances, he said, would be exhaus-
tively considered by the proper author-
ities at Berlin. The treaty with the
United States might possibly be de-
nounced, but he was unable to say any-
thing definite. The Chamber might
safely rely upon the Imperial Govern-
ment to protect German interests.

 

SHOT A NEGRO HIGHWAYMAN.

He and Two Companions Held U1.

Seven Men in One Night.

Altoona, Pa., Oct. 22.—James Lee, one
of the three negro highwaymen, was
shot mortally on Main street, Tyrone,
about noon yesterday. by Policeman
Slmler. of Phillipoburg. Wednesday
night Lee and two companions held up
and robbed seven men on the road be-
tween Phillipsburg and Tyrone. One
of their victims, David Bailey, was shot
when he attempted to resist robbery.

A posse of citizens, headed by Simler,
of Phillipsburg, and James Watchman,
of Houtzdale, overtook the highway-
men in Tyrone. The negroes drew re-
volvers to shoot, but Lee was shot by
Simler as he was drawing his pistol.
The injured man was brought to this
city. He is at the hospital in a. dying
condition.

Dispute Over Increased “Hagen.

Pittsburg, Oct. 22.-—-A wage confer—
ence between window-glass workers
and manufacturers adjourned last
night without agreement. The manu-
facturers were ‘willing to restore the
wages paid under the McKinley tariff,
but the four trades represented in the
workers’ association could not agree
on the proportion of the increase each
trade was to get. There will probably
be a window-glass “famine” this Win-
ter.

Old Constitution’s Birthday.

Boston, Oct. 22.-—The one—hundredth
anniversary of the launching of the
frigate Constitution ("Old Ironsides”)
was observed in Boston yesterday by
memorial services at the Old South
Church and a parade in which the of-
ficers and men of the North Atlantic
Squadron participated. The day was
given up to the celebration, stores clos-
ing and the school children having a
half holiday.

Distinguished Guests in Washington

\Vashington, Oct. 22.—Princess Kiua-
lani, accompanied by her father, Mr.
Cleghorn, arrived in Washington from
New York last night en route to Ha.-
waii. They registered at the Ebbiti
House, where ex-Queen Liliuokalani is
stopping. Evangelina Cossio y Cis-
neros also reached here last evening in
company with Mrs. J. Ellen Foster.

A Singular Death.

Myerstown, Pa, Oct. 22.——Prof
Samuel Miles Hemperly, a well-known
instructor at the Palatinate College,
met with a singular death yesterday.
While pruning vines from the roof of a
shed, he slipped and fell to the ground.
One of the blades of the shears pierced
his neck, severing the jugular vein. He
died in a few minutes.

“Cyclist's Eye.”

Paris, Oct. 22,—The Little Review or
Practical Knowledge asserts that
opthalmia is increasingly frequent
among bicyclists, and contends that ii
is engendered by the dust and impuri-
ties raised by the wheel. It designates
the affliction as "cyclist’s eye,” and rec-
ommends washing the eyes with a solu-
tion of boric acid and warm water be-
fore and after riding.

Hawaiians to Fight Annexation.

Honolulu, by way of San Fran-
cisco, ~Oct. 22.-——Hawaiians opposing an-
nexation have decided to send a com-
mission of five men to Washington to
fight the ratification of the treaty.

At least three Hawaiian societies
support the movement. It is understood
that J. 0. Carter, 8. white man, will
lead the commission.
