WAS HE becOveo TO DEATH?

'rouibmn that the Priest's Murder-
ers Lnred Him to His Doom.

Philadelphia, Nov. 12. —The fact that
detectives are'still busily investigating:
the death of the Rev. Henry J. Mc-

,, Rake, whose body was found early
Vi ednesday morning in an areaVVay 11-1

‘ St. Paul’s Academy, in Chiistian Stleei.
near Ninth. indicates that they a1e 13V
110 means ready to accept the Coronex’ s
physician’ s‘ opinion that death was due
to uraemia, following an attack of ty-
phoid fever.

Aside fItom the evidences of the
struggle ahd'1the wounded face which
first suggested murder, later inV estiga-
lion‘s tend to exclude any other theory.
The arrangement of the approaches to
the areaway are significant.

A wooden fence eight feet high sur-
1ounds the Vy'd. .All the gates are
fastened bV bolts and padlocks. The
fence in the 1ear could have been easily

.scaled by a man of ordinary-agility,
but it seems impossible that Father
McPake. weakened by disease, could
haVe done so. If he was murdered

, by two or more men it would have been
easy for one to climb over'the fence,
open the bolted gate and then aid in
carrying the body to the spot where it
was found.

Revenge may have been a motive as
well as robbery. Father Hannigan,
who was curate of St. Paul’s Church
four years ago, excoriated some Ital-
ians, who swore vengeance.

 

Philadelphia, Nov. 12.—According to
‘the Coroner and the police, all mystery
attending the discovery of the body of
the Rev. Henry J. Mc'Pake, the Roman
Catholic priest, in the yard of St.
I Paul’s parochial school has been
cleared up. Not only are the public
authorities convinced, but the spiritual
authorities of St. Paul’s parish are in-
”clined to accept the opinion of Mr. Cat-
tell,‘ the Coroner’s physician, that the
young clergyman died suddenly from
natural causes. A careful investiga-
flon shows that there is nothing upon
which to rest the assumption that he
was either robbed or'killed.

ENGLAND’S BIG STRIKE.

A Few Days-More and It Is Likely to
End in Defeat of the Strikers.

London, Nov. 12.—It is expected that

when the‘ conference is held between
the Employers’ Federation and the
Amalgamated Society of Engineers it
will be found that the combatants are
disposed to end. the dispute. The terms
underwhich the conference will be
held. amount to a defeat of the engi-
neers. They are to withdraw their
strike notices prior to the discussion,
while the lockout notices given by the
employers will not be withdrawu. It
is'probable that work will be resumed
-on,.Nov. 22.
.‘Theemployers are expected to give
theirconsent to a reduction of working
hours, if there is a corresponding re-
duction in wages. The union leaders
may accept these conditions, in order
to be able to say that they secured
something in return for the immense
~ -=expenditure offund-e by. the 'engineers'
society, but the'rank and file will prob—
ably prefer to return to work on the
old terms rather than to accept any
reduction in pay. An indication of the
weakness to which the Amalgamated
Society has been reduced is that it has
applied for admission into the Feder-
ated Trades.

A Change. in Hartford Life Insur-
ance Coin Altair-s Demanded.

Hartford, Ct., Nov. 12.—In the exam-
ination of the Hartford Life Insurance
Company, which Commissioner Betts
has been making, he has found that the
company has been making a practice
of paying Hartford policy holders 4 per
cent., while outsiders were only receiv-
ing 3 per cent., making a discrimina-
tion not authorized by the statutes rel-
ative to policy holders of the same
class.

.The Commissioner informed the di-
rectors that the discrimination could
not be tolerated. and directed that the
Hartford policy holders thereafter
should receive only 3 per cent. He
also.,(lirected that the policy holders
of the class in question living outside
of Hartford should receive additional
dividends until they have received the
same as the Hartford policy holders.
The Company is now engaged in even-
ing up the dividends.

Run on a Mas-achusetts Bank.

Springfield, Mass, Nov. 12.—The re-
cent closing of the Bay State Benefic-
iary .Association caused a run on
the Westfield Savings Bank yesterday
and about $12.000 was drawn out. W.
V. Crows 01,1 treasurer of the bank, was
also treasurer of the insurance asso-
ciation, and this started the run. The
excitement ceased by night. The bank

officials say they have sufficient money '

to meet every demand.

Avenged Her Brother.

Lexington, Ky., Nov. 12.—John Zeb-
ree and Henry
"politics yesterday in Leslie County and
Zebree shot Davis through the breast,
killing him instantly. '

Mollie Davis, sister of the dead man,
who was present, picked up her broth-
er’s pistol and fired on Zebree, fatally
wounding _h__im.

GOV. HASTINGS INSINUATES.

l‘elln Farmers to Drive Certain Per-
sons from Power.

Harrisburg, Nov. 12. —Gov. Ha st-
ings and others, in behalf of the city
and State, made addresses at the pub-
lic reception of 1.500 delegates to the
joint sessions of the National and State
Granges yesterday afternoon at the Op-
era House.

The Governor madoaome pointed re-
marks which indicate a purpose to
give Senator Quay and the present Re-
publican organization all the trouble
possible by arousing the farmers of the
State. He said:

"Public taxation is a. necessary inci-
dent to all governments, and the farm-
er will uncomplainingly contribute his
share where the burden rests fairly and
But his duty does
not end with the payment o-ftax. He
and his co-taxpayers are the disbursers
through their duly authorized agents in
the halls of legislation. The treasury
would be overflowing if your agents
would not let the money run out as
fast as it flows in. The watering trough
in the barnyard is hardly ever full
when the waste plug is knocked out.
If you do not want your share of the
public burden of taxation to be frit-
tered away in useless expenditure, ex-

 

. .orbitant appropriations or aimless ex-

pense of investigating committees,
whose purpose is to obscure or conceal
the truth, it is your fault if you do not
stop it.

“If your capitol building should be
destroyed by fire, and could be rebuilt
with the expenditure of half a million
dollars, you should not be taxed mill-
ions on millions to aid a subterfuge or
a delusion Which might only enrich
some favorite architect or building con:
tractor, and compel you to give a share
of your wheat and corn, your oats and
potatoes, to those who have no call
upon your bounty, your sympathy or
your patriotism. You had bettex iise
in your might and drive from place and
power those who misrepresent you and
your interests.”

DURANT NOT HANGED ro-oxw.

The,Sni1reme Court of California.
Grants 11 Stay of Execution.

San Francisco, Nov. 12.—The State
Supreme Court yesterday granted a
stay of execution in the case of Durant
because of the error of Superior Judge
Bahrs in sentencing Durant before the
papers in the United States Supreme
Court decision had arrived.

Judge Bahrs, on the strength of dis-
patches from the Attorney—General of
California, sentenced Durant to be
hanged to-d‘ay. The condemned man’s
counsd quiékly seized this point and
urged it before the Supreme Court,
which was forced to stay the execution.
This stay, however, will not last beyond
early next week, when the papers will
arrive from Washington.

All habeas corpus proceedings were
ruled out here by Judge De Haven, and
then Judge Morrow followed this by re-
fusing to permit another appeal to the
Federal Supreme Court. So, if the stay
of execution is dissolved next week,

nothing will save- -Durant from the gal-'

President's Callers Increase.

\Vashington, Nov..12.——The crowds at
the White House ,do. not show" any
signs of diminishing. On the con-
trary, as the session of Congress ap-
proaches the President’s. callers in-
crease inInumber. x Although Congress
does not assemble for three weeks,
Congressmen—both Senators and Rep-
resentatives—are coming to W'ashing-
ton in great numbersf Most of them
will remain in the city until Congress

meets, in order to look after the inter- ‘

ests of their constituents. A rumor
was afloat yesterday at the White
House that the President would with-
hold all appointments in which bond
is required until the assembling of the
Senate. The rumor naturally had a
depressing effect upon the office seek-
ers.

"Up to a late hour no appointments
had been announced from the White
House.

Railroad to the Klondike.

Toronto, Nov. 12.—A company is be-
ing organized here to build a railroad
to the Klondike. It is proposed to use
a system of motive power recently in-
vented here. The principle of the in-
vention is to apply the motive power
direct to every wheel of the cars, doing
away with a locomotive, making every
wheel of a train a driving~wheel, and
using gasoline as a. means of generat-
ing steam for power. A motor is to be
placed on every car, and the inventors
assert that their plan. besides enabling
them to dispe me with rails heavier
than sixty pounds, will enable trains to
climb grades much steeper than are
now covered by any railroad in the
world. There have been private trials
of the new invention here for the past
few days, which demonstrate the pro-
moter‘s claim that a train of cars so
equipped can mount a grade of one in
four.

Joseph Ladau Robbed of $700.

Chicago, Nov. 12.~:-’oseph Dadau, the
Klondike minim: magnate and founder
of Dawson City, was robbed last even-
ing either on board the Lake Shore
limited train or shortly after leaving
the cars. Laden; arrived at 4 o’clock
from New York and entered a carriage
to go to his rooms at the Newberry
apartment building. He placed his
hands in his overcoat pockets and dis-
covered i:he.i: he had been robbed of

Y on can tell just as well as a phV s1-
cian whether your kidneys are dis-
eased or healthy. ' The way to do is to
take a bottle 01 glass tumbler. and fill
it with urine. If there is a sediment—
a powderlike substance—at the bottom
after standing 3. day and night, there
is something wrong with the kidneys.
Another sure Sign of disease is a desit e
to urinate often, and still another sign
is pain in the back. If m ine stains
linen. there is no doubt that the kid-

'neys are affected.

Any and all diseases of the kidneys,
liver, bladder and of the urinary pa..-
sages and constipation 'of the bowels
are cured by Dr. David Kennedy’s
Favorite RemedV. There is no ques-

tion about its being the best and surest

medicine in the world for such troubles.
It quickly 1 elieves and cures inabilitV
to hold urine, and people, young or old.
who take it are not compelled to get.
up a number of times during the night.
For puttino an end to. that. scalding
pain experienced in passing urine,
nothing is so good as Dr. David Ken-
nedv' 5 Favorite Remedy. It corrects
the bad efi'ects of whiskey and beer; is
pleasant to the taste, and does not
seem to be medicine at all Diseases
of the kidneVs and bladder often re-
quire the use of instruments to push
back the sandy matter so the urine can
be avoided. In
