FEARS OF A RtSlNB IN INDIA.
Voiced in an Alarmist Article in
the London Spectator,
Next Thursday Is the Anniversary of
the Mcmorublc Mutiny.
(Djr Altoclltf J rrtu)
LONDON, May 5. The Spectator to-day
publishes an Alarmist article In regard
to India, and the possibility ot serious
trouble In that country.
The Spectator refers to the despatch
from Calcutta, published In The Times
on April 17, announcing that much ex
citement prevailed In North Behar owing
to the fact that nil the mango trees In
several districts had bee'1 found smeared
with a mixture of mud and of the hairs
of some animal.
The ofllclnli wcr perplexed, some con
sidering that the smearing of the trees
was a secret sign connected with the cow
protection movemnt, nnd this and other
movements going on In North Debar
disturbed and puzzled the Government
olllclals.
In Irs reference to the Times despatch,
the Spectator recalls that next Thurs
day Is the anniversary of the Indian
Mutiny, and that this anniversary has
been preceded by a distribution of cnk'es
throughout Rehar and the Northwest
According to The Spectnor there Is
something stirring among the Nepaulese
priests, and It Is feared that It portends
another serious rUIng In India.
The rising, It It takes place, according
to The Spectator, will be due to the
disaffection which exists on account of
the rulings of the Opium Commission, in
creased taxes, the cow question and other
matters which have caused deep mutter
Ings among the populace.
MARSHAL-SHOOTS MINER.
Atlncte from n Molt J'Vared nt
Mountain Iron, Minn.
(Dy AwocllltiJ PreM )
DULUTH, Minn., May G.-Marshnl A,
L. Free tried to suppress a slight dis
turbance among some miners at Moun
tain Iron last evening, when Mat Alson
threatened him with, a revolver. Free
promptly shot him In the abdomen and
he will probably die. Word was sent to the
strikers and a mob of 1D0 started for
Mountain Iron with the avowed inten
tion of lynching Free. Sheriff Showey
ordered nut the militia, and they took
charge of Free and removed him from
the town. The strikers are very Indig
nant over his escape.
The latest advices received here from
Mesaba Range were to the effect that
the additional force of mllltla reached
Mountain Iron ahead of the mob. Up to
midnight last night no trouble had oc
curred. The strikers retired and camped
In the woods half n mile from Mountain
Iron.
The citizens have been terrorized by
shooting near the mobs' camp, and
fear an attack.
BABE'S BODY FOUND.

Tenrniut-!Ione.
The body of a newly born female
Infant, which the police believe wns

picion as to what the bundle contained
until 7.30 this morning, when he opened

One of the heaviest fogs of the season
overhung this city and vlnclnlty for
several hours this morning, nnd wub a
serluus hindrance to ferry tratllc and
outgoing ocean steamers.
At the Long Island City ferry only one
boat, the South Hiimpton, had arrived
at this side up to 11 SO o'clock, She left
her dock on the other side at 7 o'clock,
but by the time the middle of the river
was reached, the fog was so dense that
the engines were stopped and the boat
allowed to drift.
She drifted down uder the bridge and
the passengers say objects could not be
Been twenty-live feet away, The boat
finally reached her slip and anchored
across the bow of the Garden City,
where she was at 9 o'clock.
The Roosevelt Ferry suspended t radio
entirely between 7 and S o'clock, but
after the latter hour the boats ran with
reajonable regularity.
The Wall street ferry boats ran with
out mishap of any sort, but the precau
tion was tnken not to start a boat until
tho Incoming boat wns plainly sighted.
The Fulton ferry fared better than the
others, and ran all Its regular boats ex
cept one.
The steamboat Richard Peck, of the
.New Haven line, which was due at G
o'clock, had not arrived at 9.30 o'clock.
The a Uourgogne, which was advertised
to sail at 2 o clock this morning, did not
start until 6 o'clock, and was compeller
to anchor Jut below Iberty Statue for
two hours and did not really get under
way until after 8 o'clock.
The Luranla, which was to sail for Liv
erpool at G 30 o'clock this morning, did
not sail until 10.30 o'clock.
At Sandy Hook and (Quarantine noth
ing could be made out a few feet from
the shore. No ocean steamers passed
either point, and it Is expected that
quite a number of them are off th bar
waiting for the fog to lift.
The Persian Monarch, which was float
ed Inst evening, Is no doubt among the
number.
The American liner New York wus
due to arrive at an early hour this

the Hnbana from Havana, the Olympla,
Wleland and Kdwln from Mediterranean
Sorts, the Greece from London, the
ersey City from Swansea and the
Umbrla from Liverpool.
Weather Forecaster Dunn said this
morning:
"The fpg extends all over the Middle
Atlantic und Now England coasts. It
will probably disappear during the day.
"There was rain during the night In
Central Mississippi and Ohio Valley
States, and In the eWstern Lake re

The Fitzgerald contingent of Coxey'n

At the lust moment Bunt, Ryrnes
granted the "army" a permit 1o march.
When Fitzgerald announced to the as
sembled crowd nt the Labor Lyceum, t
East Fourth street, that they would ho
allowed to parade, with colors flying,
the men received It with a shout of Joy.
"Three cheers nnd a ger for Capt,
llyrnes!" Bang out "Ofd'Sport" Adams,
the Iron-moulder.
The permit called for only sixty men
nnd limited the route from 64 Eust
Fourth street to Second avenue, to
Twenty-second street, thence to the
North River and tho ferry In Twenty
third street.
There were only fifty-one men In line.
Morrison I. Swift, Fitzgerald's lieuten
ant, was not among them. He always
travels by rail. Wnen he rejoins the
army in Newark, it Is stated on good
authority, he will deliver a speech which
he has prepnred, which will begin with
the words:
"Wo aro travel-stained nnd weary toll
er." The other missing men we're said to be
lnld up for repairs, having collided with
too many schooners, it Is believed, while
cruising along the Rowery last night.
"Tho army never drinks," said "Old
Sport," apologetically, "but we are al
lowed to take snifter Individually,"
Hy way of proof, he forthwith raised a
collection among tho newspaper men
present,, nnd gave a practical Illustration
of the difference between the army not
drinking collectively and yet drinking In
dividually. Ueforc meeting nt the Labor Lyceum,
In East Fourth street, the "army" gath
ered In front of a platform at the Peo
ple's party headquarters, SO East Tenth

"I propose"thiinho thanks be voted

"And to Miller especially," shouted
another voice. "
All except "Old Sport" voted affirm
atively. He shook his head thron tell
ingly, stamped his foot and waved his
arms, as he exclaimed
"I'm for collectivity, now and for nil
time. I bear no grudgo against Miller,
but I believe In solidarity."
He was told to shut up, but did so
only after Miller Invited him to take a
drink to show he harbored no resent
ment. Policemen Iangmuth and Mayer, of the
EaBt Fifth street station, marched In
advance of the "army." However, there
were sixteen detectives from headquar

for action In case of an emergency.
Fitzgerald and Rernard Gannon were
at the head of the column. Immediately
behind them was "Old 8port," and be

There were only two amusing Inci
dents along the way. One was when the
" Black Maria" drove up abreast with
tho head of the army. The driver kept
up a running fire of comments on the
Coxeyltes. who retorted by telling him:
" Get Inside, where you belong."
The other Incident was when a henrse

MnS.DEWDLFWfirJTS DIVORCE
Her Husband Installed Mrs. Grace
Qottbold in Her Flaoe.
Tnppun RcHJdrnts Thrjyten.tjvltlio
lawyer with Tnr nhil Feathers.
As a result of last Sunday night's dis
closures in the De Wolf residence at
Tappan, N. V., Mrs. Pcer De Wolf will
next week Institute divorce proceedings
In the New eJrsoy Chancery Court
against her husband, Peter De Wolf, a
lnwyer In the Uennett Rulldlng, 90 Nas
sau street, this city, and In the New
York courts a suit against Mrs. Grace
Gotthold to recover damages for the
alienation of her husband's affections.
According to Lawyer William L. Mel
bok, of 35 Broadway, De Wolf has for
the past three years been Infatuated
with Mrs. Gotthold, who Is the wife of
Eugene Gotthold, a travelling agent for
M. Grossman & Sons, of 1S3 Canal street.
He says they have occupied different
residences together In this city, and
nre now living under the names of
Mr. and Mrs. Peter Conklln, on the
second-story flat of 10G Eighth avenue.
Under some pretext De Wolf Induces
his wife to leave Mr. Tappner"s residence
last Sunday and Installed Mrs. Gott
hold there. Mrs. De Wolf returned sud
denly to find her place usurped.
The notoriety of De Wolfs relations
with Mrs. Gotthold Induced th resl
dents of Tappan to form a vigilance
committee, who last Friday warned
De Wolf to leave the place In five hours
under penalty of being tar and feath
ered. De Wolf and his companion laughed
at the Committee, buj. when prepara
tions were begun for the tarring pro
cess, De Wolf's brother John smuggled
Peter nnd Grace out on nn early train.
Hefore they left, however, the village
constable, Mrs. De Wolf nnd some of
her friends, Interviewed De Wolf and
Grace. Mrs. Gotthold flourished one re
volver and De Wolf two, and Invited tho
constable and party to come on. The
Invitation wns not accepted.
Lawyer Mel brook snl.l to-day to an
"Evening World" reporter:
"ll the divorce proceedings we shall
ni,me six co-respondents, two of whom
arc coubrettes In local theatrical com
panies. We could name thirty co-respondent.
If necessary
" De Wolf Is simply Infatuated with
this Mrs. Gotthold, uhn has n peculiar
hold on him. Personally De Wolf Is a
good man, nnd If he were flee from Ihe
woman would return to his wife. Do
Wolf Is thirty-seven years of uge nnd
has an Income of nlMtit JO.fun a year. For
tho past three years Mrs. Gotthold has
had most of this.
"Mrs. Gotthold li still married to her
husband. Eugene Gotthold. but they live
apart. Gotthold allows her $21 a week
and she makes a Joint purse of It with

S'x families, comprising about thirty ' -JH
people, hac for some days been living , cH
virtually In the shadow of death In the 1H
condemned four-story tenement-house . 'iH
at ion Greenwich street. 51
Strange to suy, although they fully Vat!
renllred their danger, they have, con- m
tinned to llie In a death-trap and even ''mu
now, when a tnnly warning has been "VH
given them by the Department of Build? llH
Ing Inspection, they nre grumbling nt' 'I'jH
the prospeot of having to leave the tot- SiH
tvrlng pile. H
The building Is owned by the estate 1H
of Oda Duffy, who for years kept a little
clothing store on the ground floor. It Agassi
Is fully eighty years old, nnd fifteen .vttH
years ago began lo show signs of weak- 'tH
ness. i(H
Numerous complaints have been en- ''(ibbbb!
teretl by tho tennnts In the neighbor- f
hodd, and several half-hearted av.empta AH
have been made to prop up the lam- vVH
shackle affair. The building Is what Is y7M
known as u "fulse. front," that Is the vjafM
front wall Is of brick, while the sides iH
nml rear are of wood. :ssssl
To-day the north half of the front H
wall bulges outward fully ten Inches at . ':
JJie top. and every train that passes on !
the Ninth Avenue Elevated road sends 'VaSBBSi
a tremoi through the shaky pile end .?9H
threatens lo send the- whole mas-ot VH
brick and mortar pitching forward on . 'mm
the hends of passers-by and the Ele- 'tssssi
voted struciiir..-:,.,, mM
.Inside the bulIuTng the state, of affairs ,
1 still more nlurmlng. OnlngMo the oM
bulging of the front wall the endis of the v ai
floor beun.s or. the upjier floors have' Assssi
been pulled partly out of their resting fmUM
places, and the warped wnlls and crooked ''Jlasai
ceilings show how the building has been 4-.sbbbI
racked by the settling of the founda- i 'aaasl
tlons nnd swavlng of the walls. "Msbbb
This state of nffalrs might have con-
tlnued nldeflnltely If Shoemaker Henry 'ssssl
Merten. who has a shop In thp-base- .H
ment, had not been served with a dls- fH
possess wnrrnnt yesterday. -bsssai
Merten's Ire was nrnused and he sent ,H
wool to the Inspector of Hulldlhcs that , VaB
they would see something Interesting If &MW
they come to 105 Greenwich street. -, -ftl
An Inspector came around late yes- ' sssl
terday afternoon. It look but n glance 'H
to tell him that many lives were In dan- tjMUm
Kr.
He hurried nround to the Church street tS
station and nuked that the police notify a.-'sbbi
the tenants that the house might come Haass!
tumbling about their ears at any mo- w
ment i'il
A policeman was sent to apprise the C'sssi
tenftntri of their danger and was ordered sbbbI
to stand watch until a more careful ex- 'joB
amlnatlon could be made by the Build- lB
Ing Department. .- tWM
M. F. Cussack. of 20C President street, 2jM
Urookljn. executor of the Oda Duffy es- mt
tate. was notified of the condition of ,"H
things. Mr. Cussack got over from , MWU
llrooklyn about 0 o'clock this morning .'1WM
and took u look around. He laughed VH
when nn "Evening World" reporter Vaossl
naked him why the building had been afl
allowed to stand so long. rtdsssa
"Whv. there Isn't any great danger. I "isssai
guess," said he. "That bulge In the TM
front wall has been there several years, WI
and the props between the south wall ','
and No. 10.1 have been there for fifteen 2saaai
years at least." 'MM
Sam of the neighboring tenants de- -fsssl
claic that wUhln the last few days the vH
front wall has started outward another -ftsssi
Inch at lean. They luve been In mortal sH
fear, they say, ot passing In front of the -sssl
house .vl
Mt. Cusonck ald to-diy that he sup- 'ufaB
lused If the building Inspectors ordered -'HI
the tenams tu get out they would have ilmM
to go. Merten, the shoemaker, will have S
to leave anyway, . jHI
Police Capt O'Connor sent word to the -iMW
Rulldlng Department to send another In- fll
rpectur to look ut the building and settle y'H
the matter at once. ?!MMt
The Elevated Railroad people have JH
ordered a gang of men to, hold them- 'a?H
selves In readiness" to clenr the. tracks ?SB
of the debris, should the front wall AATJ
drop out to-duy. ?
At noon a crowd of women, who live '"iU
In the house, congregated In front of Vji
the door bewailing their fate nt having -il
