KATE FIELD BRAD.
The Brilliant Woman Journalist and Leo-
turer Passes Away In Honolulu.
CHICAGO, June 1.-—H. H. Kohlsaat,
proprietor of the Chicago TimesHerald,
received a cable message dated Yokohama
and signed by Lorrin A. Thurston, ex-
minister to the United States from the
Sandwich Islands, which said. “Kate
Field died at Honolulu May 19, of pneu-
monia.”
Miss Field was in the Sandwich Islands
as special ctfirespondent of The Times-
Herald. and the last heard from her was
KATE FIELD.
a letter dated May 4 in which she informed
Mr. Kohlsaat that she had been doing a
great deal of horseback riding and that
exercise in the open air had completely
restored her health, which before she went
to the islands had been badly shattered.
Kate Field was bbrn in St. Louis in
1840. She was the daughter of Joseph
M. Field, an actor, who‘dparents, ‘Irish
exiles, brought him to 1...e United States
when he was a boy. ' The Field family,
according to the earliest historical rec-
ords, came originally from Warwickshire,
England. Kate was educated in semina-
ries in Massachusetts. Her father con-
tributed humorous sketches to his brother
Matthew’s paper, the New Orleans (Pica-
yune, and Kate wrote her first article for
the paper _‘when she who‘s years old. She
was fond or music and the stage and want-
ed to become an opera singer. She was
taken to Italy by an English lady when
she was a littlc‘girl. Walter Savage Lan-
dor took a fancy to her, gave her lessons
in Latin and bequeathed her an album of
ancient drawings. She wrote reminis-
cences of Landor for The Atlantic Month-
1y.
In 1874 Miss Field made her debut as
an. actress at Booth’s theater in “Peg
Wcfiingtcn. " She had an attack of stage
fright, from which she did not recover un-
til the last act. While on another visit to
England she brought out a one act coma
edy entitled “Extremes Meet,” which ran
three months. She contributed an article
on the telephone to The Times and sang
through the then novel invention to Queen
Victoria. From 1882 to 1888 she was the
head of a women’s “Co-operative Dress
association” in New York which turned
out a failure.
Miss Field published in Washington for
several years that bright periodical known
as Kate Field’s Washington and it was
upon the suspension of this publication a
few months ago that she left the Unitcd
States in search of health in the South sea
isles, where she met her death.
Released and Rearrestcd.
"LONDON, June 1. —- Edmund Dalton
Hind who surrendered himself on May 23
at Scotland Yard, claiming that be forged
a check for $300 on the First National
bank of Chicago, using the name of H. C.
Decamp, his employer, was discharged on
the’grouud that his extradition had not
been asked for by the United States an-
thorities. Hind, whose father, Charles W.
Hind, resides in Chicago, was then rear-
rested on the charge of being a doserter
from the East Kent regiment. He is only
about 20 years of age and it appears that
the forgery, committed in November last,
was not discovered until after a notice of
Hind’s surrender had been sent to the
Fillst National bank of Chicago.
The Trouble In Crete.
WASHINGTON, June 1,—The Turkish
logation has received the following from
the sublime ports; “Certain European
neWspapers published recently some imag-
inary and malevolent news about the sit-
uation in the island of Crete. All the
trouble grew out of a simple incident pro-
voked by the guard of the Russian con-
sul. This guard killed without any ap-
parent motive a. certain Emin Ellendi,
while the latter was seated in front of a
shop. During the affray which followed
six Mussulmans and ten Christians were
killed or wounded. Thanks to the meas-
ures taken by the imperial authorities or-
der was restored and no ,new incidcnt has
occurred since.” -
Marriage of Princess Maud.
LONDON, June 1.--The queen is dis-
pleased owing to the public manner in
which certain members of the royal fam-
ily are acting during the period of mourn-
ing for Prince Henry of Battenberg. She
has forbidden the usual royal procession
at the opening of the Ascot race meeting
and has ordered the royal stand to be
closed. For the same reason she has or-
dered that the mhrriage of Princess Maud
and Prince Charles shall be a small cere—
monial, which is contrary to the wishes
of the Prince and Princess of Wales.

PURSUED roa SEVEN YEARS.
Implicated In 1:. Shooting Aflray In Brook-
lyn—Wanted In Boston on 3 Charge
of Murder, Which, He Says, Has
Been Trumped Up by the Order.
BROOKLYN, J une 1.—The excitement
saused by the killing of Salvador-e Serrio,
the Hamilton avenue barber, by agents of
the Mafia has not abated in the neighbor-
hood in which the murder occurred.
So far the murderers have managed to
keep their hiding place from the knowl-
edge of the police, but the latter are posi-
tive that they will have the men before
many days.
Gioacohlno Coohiaro, who was to have
been the victim and who escaped with a
bullet wound in the right arm, is sure
that he is a marked man. Night and day
for the past seven years. he says- the
avengers have been on his trail. Three
times they have tried to take his life, and
left him for dead. The vendetta was pro-
nounced against Cochiaro on the ground
that he was an informer.
Even within the massive walls of Ray-
mond street jail, where he is confined.
Cochiaro does not feel safe. He fears that
some of his secret enemieswill manage
through some pretext or other to gain ad-
mission to the jail and deal him a death
blow. So much in fear is he of this that
he refuses to see any visitors unless in the
presence of Warden Shanley, who has
taken an interest in the unfortunate man.
At the mention of the Mafia Cochiaro’s
face assumes a deathlike pallor and he
looks about him with fear, as if Some foes
were hidden within the walls of his cell,
ready to spring at him.
“I fully believe,” said Cochiaro, “that
I am to be murdered. Ihave been follow-
ed from place to place for the past seven
years by men whose only thought seemed
to be the taking of my life. They will
never rest until they have accomplished
their purpose. It was not the life of Sor-
rio, Who was my friend, that Prestiginu-
no and the others sought. It was mine.
Serrio was killed in defending me, with-
out being able to make any effort at de-
fending himself. My coming to Brooklyn
was in the hope that I could elude my
pursucrs. Again I was mistaken.
“I was compelled to take a hurried de-
parture from Boston, where I had a wall
paying barber shop". .
Wanted In Boston.
The case took a now turn yesterday.
Superintendent Moliaivey of the Brooklyn
police received a message from Superin-
tendent Eldredge of the Boston police
stating that Cochiaro was wanted there
for the shooting of an Italian named An-
tonio Caro Armblisas on J une 21, 1890.
Cochiaro was arrested at the time and was
held in $2,000 ball. A year later he jump-
ed his bail.
On being asked for an [explanation of
this chair Cochiaro said: “I never shot
Armbimas. It was the Work of my one-
mies. My shop was fired into, and Arm-
blisas, who was in my employ, was wound-
ed. T1168 the cry went up that it was I
who did the shooting. I am willing to go
back to Boston and stand trial on that
charge, believing that I will be acquitted,
as I will be of the charge on which I am
now held. The blood of Serrio is not on
my hands."
The police believe the story told by
Cochiaro. They also think that Barber
Serrio was deliberately shot down to pre-
vent his giving evidence in the affair in
Cantanjara's saloon should Cochiaro’s life
also be brought to an end.
The police are endeavoring to learn
what became of the revolver with which
Cochiarc defended himself. It wasof Ital-
ian make and nearly 12 inches in length
and Wes given to the man by Serrio, who
armed himself with a revolver of Ameri-
can make before leaving the Hamilton
avenue barber shop. It is not. among the
collection in the possession of the police
and was undoubtedly carried off by one of
the Mafia agents.
It is feared that the dead man’s friends
in the Italian colony in South Brooklyn
will seek revenge for his death.
Francis L. Cnrrao, who is defending
Cochiaro, declares his client to be a victim
of Mafia persecution.
Coohiaro looks anything but a desper-
ado and seems to be a man of peaceful
disposition. He has a wife in Boston.
EXHIBITION RAILROAD CRASH.
Twenty Thousand Persons See Two Rail-
road Trains Collide by Prearrangement.
Commons; 0., June 1.-—The first pre«
arranged railWay collision for exhibition
purposes ever known took place at Buck-
of this city, on the Columbus, Booking
was between two freight trains, each com-
posed of a 40 ton engine. three gondola
cars and a caboose, running at 50 miles
an hour, when they met in view of 20,000
persons. The trains were started 6, 300
feet apart on the main line and then were
switched to a 1,000 foot siding for the col.
lision.
To make the collision more realistic, a
dummy brakeman was pefohed on each
caboose. Tho trains were started by means
of telephonic communication with the
starting point, and when the engineers
had pulled the throttle and jumped, the
engines sped onward with increasing ve
locity until, at the point of collision, they
met, mounted each other and became lock-
ed nearly upright. The three gondola cars
in each tale-coped into one. The cabooses
remained intact.
Then from the wreckage there arose a
cloud of dust, smoke and steam. The
crowd burst into deafening cheers.
The collision was planned by A, L,
Streetcar, for years a conductor on the Chi-
cago, Milwaukee and St. Paul road, who
secured the cooperation of W. H. Fisher,
general passenger agent of the Hocking
Valley railroad. Excursions ware run
from. various parts of Ohio, and the exhi-
bition was such a success that Streeter at
once made arrangements to give a similar
collision during the coming summer in
various cities. ,
The only accident was an injury to '1‘,
C. Peck, chief clerk of the passenger de-
partment of the railroad. who was hit by
a‘ flying bolt and sustained a. compound
fracture of the right leg.

Marvelous Results.
From a letter written by Rev. j. Gun-
derman of Dimondale, Mich., ,we are
permitted to make’this extract. “I have
no hesitation in recommending Dr. King’s
New Discovery as the results were almost
marvelous in the case of my wife. While
I was pastor of the Baptist Church at
Rives Junction she was brought down
w1th_ pheumonia, succeding La Grippe.
Terrible paroxysms of coughing would
last hours with little interruption and it
seemed as if she could not survive them.
A friend recommended Dr. King’s New
Discovery; it was quick in its work and
highly satisfactory in its results.”
