~M01‘i‘EVTRoUBLE FOR FIELD.
l‘wo New Indictments Returned Against
. Him for Grand Larceny.
NEW YORK, Dec. 2:3.—Two more indict-
ments have been returned against Edward
M. Field, of the defunct firm of Field, Lind-
ley, Wiechers & CO., by the grand jury.
Both indictments specify grand larceny in
. _ the first degree, and are based on the com-
plaint made by Frank J: Sprague, ,who
charges Field with the larceny of 350 shares
of Edison Electric Light stock, which he gave
as collateral for borrowed money.
No change is reported in the condition of
E. M. Field, the alleged insane banker. The
prison officials persist in saying that he is
determined to starve himself to death. Ac-
cording to them this is the eighth day of his
fast. His only drink is ice water, which he
takes in small quantities at frequent inter-
vals.
Dr. Crosby, the jail physician, and Dr.
Douglass, of Bellevue hospital, visit him
daily and are giving him medicine. The
prisoner spends most of his time lying on
the cot in his cell. Prisoners in Ludlow
street jail are never'confined in their cells
during the day, but Field has never mingled
with the other prisoners in the halls and
corridors, and does not speak to any of
them. He prefers to remain in his cell alone.
Cyrus W. Field has rallied again, and his
condition is not considered so critical as it
was on Saturday.
HOEY IIIAKES A SETTLEDIEN’I‘. ”A
He Turns Over to the Adams Express
Company About $400,000.
NEW YORK, Dec. 22.—The confirmation of
-‘ the announcement that a final settlement of
the diil’erences between John Hoey and the
Adams Express company had been reached
is an absorbing theme of conversation in
down town business circles. It is under-
stood that Mr. Hoey, in addition to trans-
ferring real estate and securities to the com-
pany, paid over a large sum in cash—the
total being somewhere in the neighborhood
of $400,000, or about $300,0001ess than the
claim against him and his associates in the
deal whereby two' minor companies were
purchased by the Adams Express corpora-
tion when he was president.
If the terms of the settlement are carried
out, all the suits against Mr. Hoey will be
withdrawn. Mr. Leopold VVallack, of coun-
sel for the Adams Express people, has au-
thorized the publication of a statement as
follows: “The settlement is an accomplished
fact, and the conveyance of the property in
the transaction is recorded in the county
register’s office. I am not at liberty to re-
veal the terms in detail at present.”
Ex-Judge Dittenhoefer, counsel for Mr.
Hoey, admitted that the settlement was an
accomplished fact.
Clever Escape from Jail.
COLUMBUS, 0., Dec. 22.——J. G. Shaw, a
notorious burglar, serving a double term of
ten years from Cuyahoga and Franklin
counties, escaped from the state prison last
night by cutting his way through the” roof
and lowering himself to the ground outside
the walls with a rope. He had placed a
dummy in the cell cot and was couuted “in”
while he was hiding in the attic.
Drowned “’hile Skating.
DANIELSONVILLE, Conn, Dec. 22.—Two
brothers named Joseph and Alphonso Ta.-
vois, aged seventeen and fourteen respec
tively, broke through the ice while skating
on Quinebaug river and were drowned.

The stock market was very active this morn.

o‘clock. Prices opened a fraction higher, but
there were heavyi realizing sales during the
early dealings, which caused an unsettled feel-
ing. Toledo, Ann Arbor and North Michigan
was the special feature of the early trading. It
advanced suddenly from 20% to 21%, while the
only important movement among the usually
active stocks was an advance of l per cent. in
Missouri Pacific to 59%; and a loss of 534 in Lack-
awanna. Besides the stocks mentioned, St.
Paul, Northern Pacific preferred, Atchison,
Burlington, Rock Island, and Richmond and
West Point were all specially active. Toward
the end of the hour the market strengthened,
and at 11 o‘clock prices were generally slightly
higher than Saturday‘s. In the second hour
Erie, St. Paul, Kansas and Texas preferred and
Missouri Pacific were all very strong, and un-
der their lead prices advanced to best figures
of the morning. At noon the improvement
ranged from lé to 1% per cent. At the close

Uncle Sam Apparently Anticipates
Some Trou‘le with Chili.
ADMIRAL BROWN IS READY.
lie Has Made Some Very Suggestive
Preparations on the Pacific Coast,
and Has Received Orders
to Sail for Valparaiso.
'SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. 22. ——From informa-
tion gained here it looks as though the re-
ports sent out from Washington of prepara-
tions for war with Chili were true. Admiral
Brown has secured an option on the new
and powerful tug Fearless, just finished at
the Union Iron works. She has a speed of
sixteen knots per hour for fifty days. If
purchased by the government she will be
supplied with two 5-inch guns and a second—
ary battery of four 6-pounders and four tor-
pedo tubes. She is swifter than any Chilian
torpedo cruiser and far more powerful.
Admiral 'Brown also secured options on
four of Spreckel’s big steamers, the Zea-
Iandia, Australia, Mariposa and Alameda, to
be used for transport service. The Zea-
landia can be ready at ten hours’ notice and
all the others inside of three weeks. The
coast defense vessel Monterey can be made
ready in three days after her armor plate
is received.
Admiral Brown received orders yester-
day and the cruiser San Francisco will get
down from Marc island at once and will
probably sail on Wednesday for Valparaiso.
Our Legation Not in Danger.
CHICAGO, Dec. 2-2.——A special to The Trib-
one from Washington, says: “There is no
truth in the report that the cipher dispatch
recently received by the state department
from Minister Egan showed the legation in
Santiago to be in immediate danger from a
Chilian mob. The cable was received Dec.
17. It related to the refugees who are shel-
tered in the legation, but there was no ap-
prehension of personal violence. The refu-
gees will not be delivered to the Chiliau
authorities unless their safety is assured.
These have been the instructions from the
state department to Minister Egan from the
beginning, and there will be no change of
policy.”
A Valparaiso dispatch says that it now
appears that the greater number of the let-
ters which have been appearing in the Lon-
don Times, displaying so bitter a tone to-
ward the United States government audits
representatives, were written by a woman
and not by the boastful Thompson. The
real author, it seems, was Lady Jordan, the
Wife of Deputy Jordan, at Santiago.
One Effect of the Inquiry.
LONDON, Dec. 22.—A Santiago correspond-
ent says that in consequence of the delay in
the trial of the persons concerned in the
Baltimore sailor riot, the Chilian congress
proposes to abolish the antiquated secret
Spanish procedure for a system of Open
trials. The delay causes irritation here.
1111‘s. Lederer Will Fight.
NEW YORK, Dec. 22,—Justice Ingraham,
of the supreme cOurt, has appointed George
W. Lederer guardian ad litem of his Wife,
Ida Florence Lederer, twenty years old, in
'order to bring an action for the partition of
the estate of her father, Richard S. New-
comb. The will of Mr. Newcomb, which
disinherited her, was admitted to probate a
few days ago. She then decided to bring an
action for a shape of her father’s real estate
as if he had left no will. Mrs. Lederer
claims her father’s Will is invalid through
mental incapacity and undue influence.
IMayor and Ex-lIIayor Indicted.
PITTSBURG, Dec. 22.——The grand jury has
indicted Mayor VVyman, of Allegheny City,
for embezzlement of city funds, two counts,
and with extortion in the matter of witness
- fees, two counts.
Ex-Mayor Pearson, of Allegheny City was
also indicted for embezzlement Of city
funds on two counts. Market Clerk Hast-
ings, of Allegheny City, was also indicted
for embezzlement of city funds on one count.
Broke Several Ribs. ‘
’7 PEEKSKILL, N. Y., Dec. 22.——While walk-
ing between the tracks of the New York
Central and Hudson River railroad yester-
day afternoon about 3 o’clock, George De-
pew, a well known Peekskiller, was struck
by a freight train and knocked down. The
injured man was removed to Hudson Ave.
nue hospital, where Dr. George H. Peters
found several ribs broken and other injuries.
Depew may recover.
Turned on the Gas and Died.
NEW YORK, Dec. 22.—Mrs. Mary Frank
Howell, at one time an actress of note, was
found dead in her bed at her home in East
Thirty-second street. The gas was turned
on and she evidently committed suicide.
She had been despondent and gloomy for
some time.
Truckee Swept by Flames.
TRUCKEE, Cal, Dec. 22.—Fire which
started yesterday was got under control at
12:30 last night, after making a clean sweep
from the Star skating rink to the Stevens
block. This includes nearly all the eastern
half of the town. The loss is $50,000.
Horses and Cattle Burned.
NYACK, N. Y., Dec. 22.—The large live
stock buildings of James Murphy, near
Congers, were destroyed by fire. Twelve
valuable horses and many choice cattle
were burned to death. The loss is about
$15,000. '
BRIEF MENTION.
Judge James H. Reed, of the United
States district court, at_ Pittsburg, will re—
sign about Jan 1.
The grip is raging in all the large cities of
south Jersey.
The Rev. John Hargreaves, of New Al-
bany, Ind, was waylaid by White Caps,
and, after being stripped of his clothing,
was horsewhipped by a large gang until he
became unconscious. After cutting a letter
“Y” on his shoulders they went away, leav-
ing no trace, and the. unfortunate man was
shortly afterward found by his brother. An
intended marriage of the clergyman is
thought to be the cause of the outrage.
The Trenton Wo-z‘lien company will proba-
bly shortly close their miils, owing tofinan-
cial troubles.’ They owe their employees
$5,000.
A painter named Tesson was arrested at
Cherbourg on the'charge of swindling his
patrons by selling them pictures of his own
which he represented to be the work of
Millet. The fraud appears to have been
perpetrated for a number of years.
Carl Edgar Johnson, of Chicago, leaped
out of the tenth story of the Manhattan
building, N w York city, to commit suicide.
He only lived a few moments after striking
the pavement below. '
