SENATOR ‘ MORSAN HOME.
The Behring Sea Arbitrator Thoroughly
Satisfied With the Decision of
the Paris Tribuiial.
NEW YORK, Aug. 28.—Hon. John T. Mor-
gan, United States senator and one of the
members of the board of arbitration on the
seal fisheries question, arrived here yester-
day on the steamship New York. A re-
porter asked the senator: “Do you view the
result of the arbitration as a victory for the
United States?” ' ’
“Most decidedly. The sole object of this
country was to protect the seals from
pelagic fishing. This has been accom-
plished. The other questions discussed
were of much less importance. In viewing
the work of the, court of arbitration it
must beborne in niind that this settlement
of the difficulty pij‘evented a great deal of
ill feeling between": this country and Eng-
land. _ This ill feeling was growing rapidly
in bitterness, and it might have resulted
eventually in embroiling the two nations
to such ,an extent that a bloodless adjust.
ment would have been extremely difficult
if not absolutely impossible. .
. “Our contention throughout all the ses-
sions of the court was that the seal must
be saved from extermination. This was
the constant cry of ourselves, of the Amer-
ican agent and the ’ American counsel.
This object was kept before the court un-
ccasingly until we made it assume in the
eyes of all the arbitrators the importance
it was entitled to.
“We gained our point, which all the ar-
bitrators finally ranked first when the de-
cision was reached on the 15th, inst. This
was the establishment of a protected zone
80 miles in extent around the Pribylofi is-
lands. The close season is to last from
May 1 to July 31, and even in the open sea-
son no person will be allowed to hunt for
seal with finiarms or with any sort of ex-
plosives.” ,
. Every member connected with the co
either as an arbitrator or consul agent, was
courteous and just. They seemed to real-
ize that if the seals were exterminated a
large industry would be wiped out, and
that the United States were simply striving
to protect the industry in the interest of all.
TEE SUI’I‘ AGAINST ARTHUR.
It Has Been Settled Out of Court and the
_ Terms Kept Secret.
TOLEDO, Aug. 28.—-Tlie famous personal
damage suit against Peter M. Arthur, chief
of the Brotherhood of _ Locomotive Engi-
ners, commenced last March immediately
after the strike of engineers on the Ann
Arbor road, has been. settled. What the
terms of the settlement are the public will
probably never know. The suit has simply.
been withdrawn, and the attorneys for both
sides as well as the officials of the railroad
company are silent as to the terms.
The suit was directed personally against
Mr. Arthur and F. P.‘ Sargent, the latter
the head of the Brotherhood of Locomotive
Firemen. At the June term of the federal
court the suit against Sargent was dropped.
Mr. Arthur was charged with conspiracy
in ordering a boycott of Ann Arbor freight
on that road and connecting lines, and the
court was asked to award plaintifis the
sum of $300,000. The settlement of the suit
does not do away with the possibility of a
final opinion on the important question as
to [Whether or not a brotherhood or union
is in itself a conspiracy against the law.
TO REDUCE SALARIES.
A Cut In New York and New England
. Railroad Men’s Wages.
BOSTON, Aug. 28.-—An order has been is-
sued to all employees by President McLeod
of the New England raierad announcing
that, owing to the unusual and extraordi-
nary financial conditions of the country,
which have caused a. decrease in the busi-
ness of this country, in common with other
railroad barriers, the management has de-
cided to make a reduction in the wages of
the officers, agents and employees, com-
mencing Sept. 1, of 10 percent.
It is not believed that the present partial
suspension of business will continue for a
very long period. However, as soon as a
change for the better takes place and the
receipts of the company warrant a return
to theschedule of wages paid heretofore, it
will give the management great pleasure
to order promptly a restoration to the old
rates in all departments.
This reduction includes all officers, agents
and other employees, the only exceptions
being those who are employed at a salary
of $30 per month or less.
Tortured and Murdered.
VANHORN, Tex, Aug. 28.—Twelve Mex.
ican outlaws took a White man and his
son, bound them, and tried to make them‘
tell where their money was hidden. They
cut off one arm of the' father, then the
other, then split his head open, with a
hatchet. The boy’s throat was cut. Rangers
have captured two of the brigands.

omelet;‘i...;;‘*:?s::i'.1.... but bloody
riot occurred on Wu'SIiington street in fronl .
of the city hall ”at 3 o’clock Saturday after-
noon. Policetofhcers and parading unem-
ployed men came together, and clubs and
stones Were used with serious efiect. The
injured: . '
, Policemen—Inspector Alex. Ross, severe-
ly on the head and bruised about the body,
Sergeant J. Swift, cut on forehead, left hip
badly bruised; Patrolman J ames‘ Larkin,
battered on the head from a blow with a
club. .-
Rioters—Michael Horoviez, cut on the
head; John Wenzel, cut on the head.
Before the parade started‘the idle work~
men held their daily meeting at the foot ol
the Coluiiibus statue on the lake front.
Some one raised a black flag, and under its
gloomy shadowseveral .-.orators talked to
the crowd. Then the black flag was taken
down, the stars and stripes raised, and the
parade to the city hall began. Preceded by
a brass bandthey'marched up Washington >
They were; '
" formed in platoons reaching across the:
_street from Michigan avenue.
street from curb to curb.
" 1 'iThe Bow Started.‘
This style: ~Of marching completely
stopped the progress of street cars and ve-
hicles, and at the corner of Washington
and Clark streets the leaders ordered the
men to march by. fours. In the OOnfusion
of assuming this term there was a'general
mix up. The result was a. halt, which fur.
ther complicated matters. A United States
mail wagon stood at the corner of VVash—
ington and Clark streets. The driver was
anxious to reach a railroad train, but he
could not get through the crowd.
Word was sent to Inspector Ross, who
was in his Office in the city balk The in—
spector walked over to the corner ,of Clark
street and calling a couple of policemen to
him ordered them to clear a passageway
for the mail wagon. This was done amid
angry shouts and threats from the crowd,
some members of which were decidedly
ugly. \
. Near the sidewalk stood the buggy of J.
H. Martindale, who had driven as close as
possible to the curb in order to allow the
parade to pass him. The marchers had
spread out again and were filling the street
from curb to curb. The crowd directed
Martindale “to get out Of the way,” to
which he replied, ”I only Wish I could.“
In an instant the crowd seized the buggy
and threw it upon the sidewalk with a
crash.
Foiled Like as Log.
Inspector Ross, followed by his three
men, rushed into the crowd and ordered it
to. move back. Horoviez picked‘ up and
hurled a piece of paving stone at Ross,
striking him on the head and felling him
like a log. The mob was wild by this time,
and those who had passed the place came
running back, made a rush for the officers,
and the fight began. Ross, who is a power.
ful man, knocked down several men in.
quick succession, and his men stood by him
pluckily.
The crowd was too strong for them, how-
ever, and when Sergeant Swift went down
with a broken head Inspector Ross drew
his revolver and by threatening the crowd
managed to hold them at bay for an instant.
Inspector Shea hurried from the cit-y hall
at the head of a dozen men and charged
upon the crOwd, and Chief Of Police Bren-
. nan, followed by his private secretary, came
running. from his office, where he had been
reading a legal opinion on the 'rights Of
crowds to parade the streets, and began
operations by knocking down two men.
The police by this time had got the bet-
ter of the mob and had forced it back after
a lively struggle, in which clubs, stones,
revolvers and knives were used on both
sides. A few minutes later and Inspector
Lewis came from the west side at the head
of 70 men, and getting his orders frOm Chief
Brennan bore down upon the crowd with
little ceremony. Patrol wagons laden with
officers came tearing up, and in 20 minutes
after the fight began 200 policemen were on
the ground. The crowd, which numbered
several thousand by this time, were dis-
persed without much trouble. '
Mayor Harrison Appears. _
At the time the trouble broke out MayOr
Harrison was in a barber shop near at hand
getting his gray locks clipped. The barber
had just put on thefinishing touches when
word came that there was a riot in front of
the city hall. The mayor was out of the
chair in an instant. The barber will wait
until another day for the price of a hair
out. His honor was on - the street in
another instant. He hurried to the city
hall, and meeting Chief Brennan, who was
just returning from the fight, he said: .
“Brennan, I Want no more parades.”
’ “Not at any time?” asked the chief.
“Not at any time. ' And watch these
meetings. Keep your oiiicers on the lake
front, and allow no disturbance. Break up
any meeting that may become disorderly.”
This, the mayor says, he will stand to,
and there will be no more paradesiof un-
employed workin‘gmen allowed.
The crowd included many toughs. and,
the police say, was composed of different
material from that which formed the pa-
rades of the preceding days, One man was
arrested by Ofiicer Mitchell. He gave his.
name as Joseph Wenzel and said he was
from Bridgeport. He was caught just as
he was whirling» a brick at Ofiicer ,Waggie.
- Vowed He \Vould nave _Blood. ‘
A few moments later another Pole, who
gave his name as Michael Horowitz, was
arrested at the south door of the hall. The
prisoner, it is said, threw the stone that
struck Inspector Ross. He was wild with
excitement and vowed he would have
blood. In his pocket was found a revolves
and a box of cartridges. As soon as Hero
witz was arrested a crowd of his friends
rushed to rescue him, but were beaten back
by the police. Several were knocked down,
but none were fatally hurt.
After the men had dispersed at the cit
hall they assembled again at the lake fron ,
Speechmaking was begun, but the words
.were drowned by the shouts of the mob.
Mayor Harrison pushed his way through
the crowd to the speaker’s stand He ad-

CHICAGO, Aug. 28.—In the bill for divorce
filed in the superior court by Mrs-Bellafl.
.. Hassett against William E. Hussett of this
i _city some most astonishing charges are,
made. It is.alleged,‘ and the allegations
are supported by written evidence, that
Hassett conspired with the. wife of a
wealthy; farmer named Stone, now living
' near Naéhua, In.’, to murder Stone, geta
divorce ,frppi his own wife and then marry
. the \vidowpf Stone, . who was niche than-
ready to put/her own husband out of the
Mrs. Hassettjslwell known ._in the better
circles of Cincinnati, where she .taught
school for several ' years.- .- Her maidenname
was Belle Cyntbisil’iicks.‘ Hassett oomes
from a wealthy family in J efierson, :Ia.‘
His father, prior to his death, a short time
ago, had accumulated a fortune, which Will ,
benefit Hassett to the extent of $75,000. He '
was married to Miss Hicks, who at that
time lived in Hamilton, July 1,1891.
. The Plot Discovered.‘
About one year ago, whilegliassett was
traveling through Iowa. he, became ao-
quainted with Mrs. Nellie Stone, who was
living with her husband, a wealthy farmer
in Nashua. The woman, the bill alleges,
became enamored of Hassett,~ and it is
charged made propositions to make away
with her husband, who was past middle age
and an invalid The alleged plot was. to
bring Stone to Chicago on a trip to the fair
and put a quantity of poison in the medi-
cine he was taking. , ., :
Mrs. Hassett became aware of the 80.
called intrigue through an accident; Not
long ago her husband came home in an in! .
toxicated condition, and aquarrel arose, re- -
sulting in the defendant telling his wife
that lie-had a woman living in Iowa who
loved him more than she, and if she did not
~ believe it she would find a number of let-'
tors in his trunk which would prove it.
Mrs. Hassett was quick to act on the in-
formation given her, and while her hus~
band was away from home she opened his.
trunk and found the letters. She was her-
rified at their contents and immediately
placed the ’mattcr in the hands of her at-'
torneys. The most important letters were-
read and attached to the bill. They are as
follows:
. Something Must Be Done.
. ' NAanA. J une a1.
MY OWN DEAR WILL—As I am alone today I
will try to write one letter without being fright-
ened out of my wits. I wish you were here to-
day. so we could talk things over. I am awful-
ly afraid of letters. but this seems to be the
. only way. \Ve will get in Chicago Sunday
morning at 6:30. Now. dear, I think we will
try between ourselves to have some accident
happen the night of the Fourth. Ido not know
what time we will go to the grounds Tuesday.
But you must be my shadow. we will stay on
the grounds in the evening to see the display.
Do not be too daring and get caught. but some-
»thing must be done. and I do not feel like do-
ing it alone. ,
I Want it to happen between? the let and the
6th. If it could only happen when I least ex-
pect it. I could be more shocked. You see. I
will have to put on a great deal; Now if we
succeed we will have. to be very Careful. He
has a son who would have to be sent for, and he
and I could settle everything better alone. You
see. I would have to keep my place as a widow
a proper length of time in order to be anybody
in the future, and you know you have to have
a divorce.
If there is no other way. something can be
given him, but I am afraid I should fail in the
attempt. \Vc must not let the chance slip. I
would have to take him on to New York. Then
I could see you asI came back, and we could
plan our future. If you get this in time, write
me tomorrow. \‘Vith love and kisses, I am yours
forever. Put on your goggles to come to the
depot. ahd be careful. He will not leave me
long. If he once suspects us. we might as well
give up. ‘ YOUR OWN NELLIE.
To Give Him 3 Dose.
FRIDAY. A. M. 8:30.
MY OWN DARLING Ber—The time of starting
has been changed. We will leave here Monday
morning, July 3. Now. babe, you can get some
p. acid and give it to me. also some morphine.
Do not attempt to say anything to me unless I
give you a signal. I could do something before
I go in, but he seems in perfect health to look _
at him and isfeeling the best he has for along
time, but if I have a shadow of a chance I will
see what can be done between this and Men-
day a. m. , _
I am just wild. I do not wish you to keep
one line that I have written since our marriage.
You do not need them. . You will have me when
the time comes. and ashes tell no tales. I shall
burn everyletter—ns bad as I hate to—before I
leave here. If I cannot do anything here, he
must get hurt in Chicago ‘accidentally. You
can manage that yourself. and I can give him
his medicine—with something in it. He is not
taking one bit of medicine now. so you see it
would be a deliberate act of mine, and oh. how
heartless it would seem! But, a woman will do
anything for love. '
If one of us gets into trouble. we must not
give the other away. We will never put one
word on paper again in regard to this business.
It is dangerous. So goodby until I see you in
Chicago. But do not let him get sight, of you
if you; intend to do anything. If it does not
happen there. it will happen pretty soon after
I got back here. or in Davenport, on our way
home. I can‘ give him a dose in Davenport,
and no one will ever know it. Goodby once
more. YOUR OWN Tnur: NELLIE. .
When Hassett became aware in his sober
moments that his wife had Obtained pos-
session of the letters, he made an attempt
to kill her, it is said, and was only pre-
vented fron'r doing so by the interference of
neighbors. ' ’
Whether the alleged plot to take the life
of Stone was frustrated or not could not
be ascertained. It is thought by the attor-
neys that Mr. and Mrs. Stone were in Chi~
