United States Steamer Bancroft
Shot at in Smyrna. '

Protests and Secures Prompt Rep-
aration for the Firing.
Constantinople, Turkey, Dec. 22.-——It
appears that when the United States
steamer Bancroft arrived at Smyrna,
during the nigh-t of Dec. 4, she was
greeted with a blank cannon shot and
rifle bullets from the fort of Yenlkale.
A boat from the war ship, sent shore—
wards to ask for explanations, was
fired upon and compelled to return.
Thereupon the American Admiral
lodged a protest with the United States
Minister here, Dr. James B. Angell,
who demanded the punishment of the
guilty parties and an apology from the
Turkish Government, which was given
on Sunday last. In addition two Turk-
ish officers were dismissed and sen-
fenced to a.week’s arrest.
The entry of ships into Smyrna at
night is prohibited, but on this occa—
sion the lamps in the outer lighthouses
were still burning, and the Bancroft
stopped when the requisite signals
were made.
Not Regarded of Great Importance.
W‘ashington, Dec. 22.—The Navy De-
partment has received news of the fir-
ing on the Bancroft from the State De-
partment, which had been informed
through Minister Angel], at Constanti-
nople of the outcome of the incident.
The matter' was not regarded as of
great importance. In fact, several in-
stances have occurred within the mem-
ory of naval officers stationed at the
department of just such arbitrary ef-
forts to enforce vexatious port regula-
'tions which are common to Oriental
seaports.
A similar rule is applied at Havana,
where the guns of Morro Castle do not
hesitate to fire at any vessel passing in
or out of the harbor after nightfall.
The Russians established a similar rule
(though more liberal in scope) at Vladi-
vostock, the great Pacific fortress, af-
ter the guards had awakened one fogg r
morning to find that a large British
squadron was lying under the guns of
the forts, having entered unseen in the
night.

WOMAN’S TALE OF MURDER.
“The ‘Vomun in Black" Makes 1!. Con-
fession in the Kaiser Case.
Norristown, Pa., Dec. 22.—The hear-
ing of James A. Clemmer and Eliza-
beth K. De Kalb, the two alleged ae-
complices of Charles 0. Kaiser, in the
murder of his wife, Emma P. Kaiser,
on Oct. 28, 1896, took place before Mag-
istrate Lenhardt yesterday. .
Mrs. Kaiser was shot while riding
with her husband on a lonely road
near here. The alleged motive for
the crime was the desire to secure
$10,000 insurance on her life. Kaiser
has been sentenced to death for the
murder.
District Attorney Strassburger re-
fused to permit Cler'nmer to waive a
hearing, and, after a few minor wit-
nesses had been examined, Miss De
Kalb, the “woman in black,” went *on
the stand and told the story of her life
and the plans of the conspiracy. Her
story was of a startling nature and
most damaging to Clemmer. The latter
listened with great attention to her
words, but remained calm and cool un-
der the trying ordeal.
She told of a plan which Clemmer
and Kaiser had agreed upon for get-
ting Mrs. Kaiser out of the way. This
was to chloroform the woman and set
fire to the bed. This plan, she said,
was not carried out,' because Kaiser
lost his nerve. Miss De Kalb told of
several carriage rides she had with
Mrs. Kaiser, the majority of which
were‘planned by Clemmer. On all of
these unforeseen circumstances hap-
pened which the commonwealth be-
lieved delayed the murder of Mrs. Kai-
ser. Her description of the drive which
ended in the murder was minute and
was attentively listened to.
For the testimony given it is believed
the commonwealth will allow her to en-
ter a plea of accessory after the fact.
It was thought to be impossible to con-
vict Clemmer without Miss De Kalb’s
evidence, hence the abandonment of
the original intention to prosecute both
as principals.
CUBAN WAR STATISTICS.

cerning Losses on Both Sides.
'Havana, Dec..22.-—It is announced

Bunk Clerk Arrested.
Newark, N. J., Dec. 22.—Julius A.
Brose, discount clerk in the State
Banking Company here, was arrested
yesterday afternoon on the charge ,of'
having embezzled $7,200. He is a single
man, 29 years of age. A short time ago
the banking officials noticed a defi-
ciency in the funds of the bank, and a
firm of New York experts traced the
thefts to Brose, and at the conclusion
of the investigations reported that he
was short $7,200.

Springfield, 111., Dec.‘ 22.—James
Mingle, recently convicted of having

her mother, Mary Briscoe, wants to die

told of this request, replied that the
county was not in the habit of deco-

An Ex-I’cnnsylvnnin Representative
Connnits Murder.
VVilkesbarre, Pa., Dec. 22.——James B.
Griner, err-Representative in the State
Legislature from this city and of late
proprietor of the Pullman H‘tmse at
Duryea, shot and killed his step-daugh—
ter yesterday. Griner had been in finan-
cial trouble, 'and yesterday morning
Attorney Eugene Ward went up from
. this city and closed his hotel on an exe-
cution amounting to $2,000.
After this had been done Griner took
a train for Scranton and bought a re-
volver there. Coming back to the hotel
he began abusing his wife and daugh—
ter. A family quarrel followed, [which
attracted the attention of the neigh—
bors.
Then came three shots, and the neigh—
bors rushed in to find Caroline Shifter,
the step-daughter, lying on the floor,
her mother bending over her and Gri-
ner standing near with a revolver in
his hand. Three shots had taken effect
in the body of the young woman.
Griner did not try to escape, but sub~
mitted to arrest, and was at once taken
to Pittston for a hearing before Squire
Loftus. Later he was brought to the
County Jail in this city. He would not
talk to the policeman.
Griner has been a well-known figure
in Luzerne County politics for years.
He ran against and defeated Daniel L.
Hart, the playwright, in the legislative
election in W'ilkesbarre in 1894.
SIXTY-TWO CARS WRECKED.

Altoona, Pa, Dec. 22.—As a result of
Monday night’s freight wreck, which
was caused by a runaway train on the

pital. The bodies of Numer and Cor-
bin were not recovered from the wreck—
age until yesterday morning. Numer
could be heard talking for four hours
after the wreck occurred, but could not
be reached until after the mass of de-
bris had crushed him to death. The
body of Corbin was found in a pile of
debris, thirty feet in the air. He lay
under the roof of a car and was proba-
bly instantly killed.
One locomotive was completely and
two others were partially destroyed.
Four passenger coaches and fifty-eight
loaded freight cars were completely
wrecked. Besides this lass the damage
to the merchandise with which the cars
were loaded is heavy. ,
AMAUD dome INSULT'ED?
Story that Vice-President Hobart
W'as Rude to Her.
“7ashington. Dec. 22.—A story is
going the r01: ids here which is calcu-
lated to do Vice-President Hobart
harm. It is in connection with the visit
paid to the Vice—President by Miss
Maud Gonne, the Irish lecturer.
The call on' the Vice—President was
not a lengthy one, and certain members
of the committee have since said that
Miss Gonne was brusquely treated by
Mr. Hobart. They say his manner was
bluff to the extent of rudeness. It is
said that he blufiiy demanded what she
was doing in this country, whether she
came for love, fame or fortune, if she
were single or married, and wound up
the conversation by telling Miss Gonne
to take a lot of her counrymen back to
Ireland with her.
Vice-President Hobart says:
“There must surely be some mistake.
I was charmed with the young lady.
Of course, the conversation was not a
serious One. I do not remember every-
thing that was said. I believe I did
joke about such a charming young
lady being single. But I can remember
nothing that might be construed as of—
fensive.”
Big Fire in Kansas City.
, Kansas City, Dec. 22.-——The Auditori-
um, the largest and finest playhouse
west of Chicago, and the Auditorium
_Hotel, one of the most fashionable fam-
ily hotels in the city, situated at
Holmes and Ninth streets, were gutted
by fire that started in the theatre
shortly after 1 o’clock yesterday morn-
ing.' The 1106 guests, many of them
children, escaped in safety. The loss on
the property, which is owned by Alex-
ander Frazer, a local business man,
will aggregate $450,000. The insurance
is $85,000. The Auditorium was built in
1886 by Col. George W. Warder at a
cost of $350,000. It was named the VVar-
der Grand Opera House and was
Opened by Booth and Barrett.
Revolt Against Civil Service.
Boise, Idaho, Dec. 22.—Surveyor—Gcn-
eral Joseph Perault is in revolt against
the Civil Service law and the Interior
Department. He has received notice
that Frank C. Whitthorne has been
transferred by the Interior Department
from the Surveyor-General’s office in
the Staté of Washington to the office
here under the civil-service rules. Mr.
Perault has written the department
that he will not permit Whitthorne‘ to
take a. place in his ofiice. He does not
propose, he says, to have any employee
sent to him under the civil—service
rules or any other rules.
Milk Trust Formed.
New York, Dec. 22.—The Milk Trust,
which proposes to sup-ply New York

tions which, it is alleged. will reduce
the cost to the consumer and'insuz-c a
better grade of the product, has be-
come an accomplished fact. Articlrs of
incorporation have been filed in Trun-
ton, N. J., and all that remains tn be
done is to arrange the details for the
conduct of the retail business. The
new corporation is to be known as
“The Farmers’ Dairy and Produce

BRITAIN MAY AID JAPAN
Russian Occupation of Port Arthur
Suid to Be Based on the Visit of
the British “'ur Ship Daphne—Deo-
ninl from St. I’etersburg.
Berlin, Germany, Dec. 21.—The Paris
:orrespondent of the Cologne Gazette,
says that it is stated on reliable au-
thority that the Russian occupation of
Port Arthur was connected with the
visit there of the British war ship
Daphne a week ago, when, in Spite of
the protests of the Chinese, the. Daphne
entered the inner harbor to ascertain,
is alleged, whether there .wei’e Russian
ships there.
China complained of the incident to
the representatives of the powers at
Pekin. '
The British Far Eastern squadron is
said to be at Talicmoan and is shortly
expected at Port Arthur.
The Cologne Gazette regards the oc-
cupation as merely a continuance of
the co-operation of Germany with Rus-
sia in Eastern Asia.
A Russian Statement.
St. Petersburg, Russia, Dec. 21.—The
Novost‘i declares the occupation of
Port Arthur has nothing political be-
hind it, adding:
“It must be a matter of indifference
to the pewers who are not planning
seizures of Chinese territory as to
which point the Russian squadron
; :hooses for its Winter station.”

ENGLAN D’S PROBABLE ATTITU DE.
Said that the British Squadron Will
Be Stationcd act “’ei-Hui-\Vei.
London, Dec. 21.——An unconfirmed re-
port is current here that part of the
British Far Eastern squadron will be
stationed at VVei-Hai-Wei this Winter.
If true, this indicates that Great Brit-
ain is working with Japan. The latter
still occupies VVei-Hai-Wei, pending
payment of the Chinese war indemnity.
The evening newapapers are much
disturbed over the situation. “What
do we get?" is the burden of their com-
plaint. They all insist upon the neces-
; sity for immediate action.
The Globe says: “Russia and Ger-
many now have the two most import-
ant strategetical positions in northern
China, and Great Britain, whose com-
mercial interests there are ten times
greater, must be content with the
crumbs from the St. Petersburg and

titude, and remarks: “Of course, the

tion by, any method of diplom .vy.
There are rumors that she is on
point of declaring hér conversion to zitr“
to come, will not be confined to Russia
and Germany. Every naval State in
the world is actively concerned in the
disturbance of the equilibrium in the
Far East, Great Britain, France and
especially. But the United
States cannot be treated as a quantity
to be ignored. Tame acquiescence with
these seizures is not worthy of our
past, and is fatal to Our future. We
may remark that we shall not be with-
out sympathizers, as the Japanese will
most joyfully back any scheme to re-
dress the bittér humiliation they have
suffered at the hands of Russia.”
Advices from Paris Show France is
awaiting Great Britain’s action. If
Great Britain follows the lead of Rus-
sia and Germany and occupies a sea—
port, France will forthwith follow suit.
GERMAN SHIPS NOT FOR SAMOA.
A Report Concerning a. Menace to
the United States Ridiculed.
Washington, Dec. 21.—The assertion
that the German fleet under Prince
Henry will go to Samoa and Hawaii,
thus creating a menacing situation for
the United States is ridiculed in all of-
ficial quarters here. When the reports
were called to the attention of the Ger-
man representatives they laughed
heartily at the idea of a German di-
version against Samoa or Hawaii.
Nothing of this kind has ever been
considered.
The German fleet will go to China
via the Suez Canal, and its destination
is Kiao Chou Bay. Germany, the Unit- "
ed States and Great Britain are parties
to a tripartite arrangement for the
government of Samoa, and although
the plan has not proved satisfactory,
there has been no recent friction, and,
at no time a con ition which would
call for a naval d monstration. Ger-
many has taken no interest in the an-
nexation of Hawaii to the United
States, and her only interests there are
those of the 1,400 German citizens there
who form a, considerable part of the
wealthy sugar planting colony.
No Doubt 0: McKenna-‘s Confirmation
Washington, Dec. 21.—There does not
seem to be any doubt of the confirma-
tion 'of Attorney-General McKenna as
Supreme Court Justice. The case will
be taken up by the committee shortly
after the holidays, and will be reported
to the Senate. There are nine members
on the Judiciary Committee of the Sen-
ate. and it does not appear probable
that more than one or two of the mema
bers will vote against confirmation.
Senator Teller, of Colorado, and Sen-
ator Clark, of Wyoming, bolting Re-
publicans, are on the committee. It is
not believed that the silver question
wilLenter into the question of con-
firmation to any great extent, but the
question of the Attorney General’s cons
nection with the sale of the Pacific
Railroad may influence two or three of
the members of the committee to vote
unfavorably on the nomination.

London, Dec. 22. — The British
squadron will‘make a demonstration at
Chefoo, on the northeast of the Shan-
tung Promontory, a Shanghai dispatch
reports, as a warning. It is supposed
that Great Britain intends to oppose
the division of China without consult-
ing her.
It is reported there that Russia has
offered China a. loan to pay off the in-
demnity of the war with Japan, and it
is believed, the dispatch says, that
Japan and England are acting in con-
cert to preserve China from disintegra-
tion, favoring the idea of a protecto-
rate over Central China, with a capital
at Nanking.
It is rumored also, the dispatch al-
leges, that a large Russian military
force is coming overland from Siberia.
A Germano-Chinese commission has
been arranged,-Shanghai hears, to set-
tle the boundaries of the occupied dis-
trist at Kiao Chou. It is evident, there—
fore, that the occupation will be per-
manept.
The British intend to occupy‘ Ta-lien-
wan, south of Port Arthur, in order to
guard the Gulf of Pe-chi-li.
FRENCH SHIP GOES TO CHINA.
The Cruiser Jenn Burt Ordered to

London, Dec. 22.——A special dispatch

Jean Bart has been ordered to proceed
Immediately to China.
Shanghai, Dec. 22.—-—The German ad-
miral commanding at Kiao Chou Bay
refuses to admit newspaper men with—
in the German lines. There have been
no further developments at Kiao Chou.
All is quiet here.
The Jean Bart, above referred to, is
rated as a second-class cruiser. She is
of over four thousand tons displace-
ment, is 346 feet long, has forty-three
feet beam and her estimated speed is '
nineteen knots. She has an armored
deck four inches in thickness, mounts
four 6.2—inch quick firing guns, six 5.5-
inch guns, fourteen 2.5-inch guns, and
has nine guns of smaller calibre. Her
crew numbers 332 men.
Japan’s Two New Cruisers.
Washington, Dec. 22.——The two new
cruisers which Japan is having built in
this country will be launched within a
short time. The cruiser at Cramp’s
ship yards at Philadelphia has been
christened the Kasagi-Kan, and the
launching has been set for Jan. 20.
The cruiser at the Union Iron Works,
at San Francisco, has been named the
Chitose. The launching will occur some
time in February. Both cruisers have
a tonnage of about flve‘thousand tons
each, and the contracts call for a speed
of twenty—two knots.
Berlin Paper Talks of Force.
Berlin, Dec. 22.—The Norddeutsche
Allegemeine Zeitung, in the course of
another article on the attitude of non-
European powers toward Germany, es-
pecially with reference to Hayti’s ac-
tion “under the mistaken idea she
would be supported by America," says:
“The case of Cuba shows how the'
Monroe doctrine should be met. Every-
thing depends upon whether the appli-
cation of the doctrine finds itself lim-
ited by the right of nations in the form
of a line or ironclads, with an arma-
ment of guns.”
FIRE THEIR WEAPON.
Indians Threaten to Burn the United
States Court. »
Wichita, Kan, Dec. 22.—-Information
has been received at the office of the
United States Marshal at South Mc-
Alester, I. T., to the effect that the law-
less element among the Indians has
formed a conspiracy to burn up the
United States Court House there and
all other United States Court buildings
in the Indian Territory.
The Indians are growing more restive
as the first of January approaches, as
upon that day all of their tribal courts
are abolished, and the Federal courts
have jurisdiction over all the litigation
affecting Indians. ’
Under'the Indian law one In'dian can-
not sue another for debt of any nature.
There are vast numbers of notes held
by shrewd Indians against their less
p‘roviden't brethren, now lcollectable,
which can be sued on and collected as
soon as the Indians come in under the
Federal law. It will ruin many thou-
sands of Indians who have heretofore
been considered wealthy.
\Vurship to Investigate. ,,
“’ashington, Dec. 21.—The cruiser
Detroit arrived at Port au Princ‘e yes-

blehead, which has been stationed

by cable that he would sail at once for
Key West. At that place he will coal
and proceed to Navassa Island to in-
vestigate charges of inhuman treat-
ment of the American laborers by, the
agents of the corporation controlling
the island.
Capt. McCalla would have proceed-
ed directly to Navassa from Port au
Prince, but was short of coal and
deemed it imprudent to chance fever
by coaling in the West Indies.
