Bier Appropriations.
Special to the Globe.
Washington-, May G. — The river and
harbor bill passed the house this afternoon
by forty-one majority, after a struggle
through several weeks. The contest has
been earnest and persistent from the be
ginning, in respect to certain features of
the bill, and the leading men among the
Democrats deprecated the extravagant no
tions of the committee. It was hoped it
might be possible to cut down the aggre
gate 52,000,000, or at least reduce it to
$10,000,000, but the appropriations had been
distributed judiciously for the purpose of
giving the committee ample support and the
combination was safely led to the end by
Mr. Willis of Kentucky, the liberal-minded
gentleman, wiio is the ardent champion
of the $77,000,000 education bill. The
aggregate of appropriations recommended
by the river and harbor committees was
not materially increased, but it is expected
that the senate will add from $3,000,000
to 85,000.000 in which eveut a veto is not
improbable if any reliance is to be placed
in the predictions of certain Democratic
leaders or the president
MAY APPROVE TIIE BILK.
and order the expenditure of only such
parts of the amonnt as he may deem neces
sary. Among the important points of at
tack on the bill were the items relating to
the control of the appropriations for the
Mississippi and Missouri rivers and the ap
plication to be made of the money appro
priated for the improvement of the Missis
sippi, between Cairo and the head of the
passes. Holman of Indiana, Hepburn
of lowa and others insisted, as
they have done in former
congresses, that as the work on the lower
Mississippi is experimental, the money
should be used to try the experiment at two
points only, namely: Piumb Point and
Lake Providence beach, instead of dredging
and levee building for hundreds of miles
along the course of the river. To-day the
decisive vote resulted in the adoption of the
policy of concentration of the effort at
improvement of that wayward steam as
proposed by Mr. Holman. Mr. Hepburn
was also successful in
SECURING A MAJORITY
in favor of taking the control of the im
provement of the Mississippi aud Missouri
out of tiie hands of the respective commis
sions appointed for that purpose, aud
placing the works under the immediate
direction of the war department. The
representatives from the lower Mississippi
valley console themselves with the belief
that the senate will restore the two
commissions and disagree to the
Holman amendment. The affirmation
vote on the passage of the bill consisted ot
fifty-five from liepublicans and eighty-eight
from Democrats. The negative vote was
east by forty-four Democrats and fifty-eight
.Republicans. The river and harbor bill as
it passed appropriates about $15,000,000.
The changes made iv the house since tiie
bill came from the committee, in items of
appropriation, are but slight, probably not
amounting to one hundred thousand dollars
either way.
ROUTINE REPORT.
Washington, May 6. — It the house to
day Mr. Tucker, Ya., reported adversely
a joint resolution proposing a constitutional
amendment providing for female suffrage.
Reports were also submitted appropriating
530, 000 for the survey of a water route to
connect the waters of the Detroit river with
Lake Michigan; authorizing the Kansas
City, Fort Scott & Gulf Railroad company
to operate a railroad through the Indian
Territory: adversely to equalize the right
;of fishing in the navigable waters of the
. United States. An attempt was then made
to call up the bill to create the department
of agriculture and labor, but it was unsuc
cessful owing to dilatory motions, and the
morning hour having expired the house
went into committee of the whole on the
river and harbor bill. Mr. Everhart of
Pennsylvania and Mr. Stone of Missouri
opposed the bill. The com
mittee then rose and reported the
bill to the house. The only amendment
reported from the committee upon which a
separate vote was demanded was that di
recting the secretary of war to negotiate
for the purchase of the works of the Mon
ongahela Navigation company. It was
agreed to, 124 to 42. Under the arrange
ment made in the committee Mr. Holman
of Indiana offered an amendment providing
that the money appropriated for the im
provement of the lower Mississippi, except
such as is required to protect the
WORKS ALREADY IN PROGRESS,
shall be expended in the continuance and
completion of the works on Plum Point
and Lake Providence reaches. Agreed to,
yeas 132, nays 113. Mr. Hepburn of lowa
moved to strike out the appropriation for
Galveston harbor. Lost. Mr. Hepburn
moved to amend by providing that the ap
propriation for the lower Mississippi shall
be expended under the direction of the sec
j retary of war, without the intervention of
i the Mississippi river commission. Agreed
t to, yeas 126, nays 107. Mr. Hepburn also
i offered an amendment providing that the
Improvement of the Mississippi river, from
! Us mouth to Sioux City, shall be conducted
I without the intervention of the Mississippi
\ river convention. Agreed to. 76 to 71. Mr.
[ Spooner of Rhode Island moved to recommit
L the bill with instructions to the committee
: on rivers and harbors to report back a bill
appropriating §10,000.000; to be expended
under the direction of the secretary of war
on such public .works as he may deem
- proper; lost. Mr. Holman, of Indiana,
moved to recommit the bill with instruc
tions to the committee on rivers and har
bors to report back a measure appropriating
JS. 000, 000 for the improvement of rivers
and harbors, to be, expended by the secre
tary of war, subject to the approval of the
president; rejected; yeas, 85; nays, 157.

WOMAN SUFFRAGE.
Report of the Minority of the Judi
ciary Committee.
Washington, May 6. — The minority of
the house judiciary committee, in reporting
adversely upon the proposed woman suff
rage amendment to the constitution, sub
mits but a formal report recommending
that the proposition lie upon the table. The
minority report, which is signed by Messrs.
Eb Ta.vlor, Hepburn, Caswell and Itanney,
comments upon this fact, but says:
The importance of the question of woman
suffrage is forcing its full discussion every
where, and the silence of the committee will
have no tendency to withdraw it from public
attention. "In a government by the people,"
continues the minority, "the ballot is at once
a badge of sovereignty, and the means of ex
ercising power. Women are people, and we
submit that they are neither morally or in
tellectually incapable, and that no necessity
for their disfranehisoment can be suggested.
On the contrary, wo believe t hat they are en
titled to immediate and absolute enfranchise
ment:
First— Because their own good demands it.
Give woman the ballot and she will have ad
ditional means and inducements for a broader
and better education, including a knowledge
of affairs, which she will not fail to avail her
self of to the uttermost, and which will add
to her means of protection for her person and
estate. The history of woman is for the most
part a history of wrong and outrage. Created
the equal companion of man, she early be
came his slave, and still is in many parts of
the world. In many so-called Christian por
tions of Europe she is to-day
YOKED WITH BKASTS
and is doing the labor of beasts, while her son
and husband are serving 1 in the army, pro
tecting: the divine right of kings and men to
slay and destroy. Man has not been con
sciously unjust to woman in the past, nor is
he now, but he believes that she is in
her true sphere, not realizing that
he has fixed her sphere and not
God, as he imagines. If the unspeakable Turk
should be solicited to open the doors of his
harem and let the inmates become free and
human, ho would be indignant doubtless and
would swear by the beard of the prophet that
he never would so degrade lovely woman,
who in her sphere was intended as the solace
of glorious, superior men. Yet as man ad
vances, woman is elevatad and her elevation
iv turn advances him. No Liberty ever {riven
her has been lost or abused or regretted.
Where most has been given her, she has be
come best. Liberty never degrades, slavery
always does.
Second — Woman's vote is necessary for the
g-ood of others. She is the enemy of foreign
war or domestic turmoil. She is the friend of
peace and home. Her influence for good in
many directions would bo multiplied if she
possessed the ballot. She desires the homes
of the land to be pure and sober. With her
help they may become so; without her, what
is the prospect in this regard'/ Under the
wise and sole administration of man, well may
the cry go out: "Watchman, tell us of the
night — what it 3 signs of promise are." We
do not invite woman to the dirty pool of poli
tics, nor does she intend to enter that pool.
Politics is not necessarily uncleau. If it is
unclean she is not chargeable
WXXH THE GREAT CRIME,
for crime it is. Politics must be purified or
we are lost. To govern this great nation
wisely and well is not degrading- service. To
do it, all the wisdom, ability aud patriotism
of all people is required. No great moral
force should be unemployed. But it is some
times said that women do not desire the bal
lot. Some may not — nay, many do not, per
haps a majority, but such indifference can
not affect the right of those who are not ju
difl'erent. The conservative woman, who
feels that her present duties are as burden
some as she can boar, when she realizes what
she can accomplish for her country and for
mankind by the ballot, will as reverently
thank God for the opportunity and will as
zealously discharge her new obligations as
will her more radical sister, who has long and
wearily labored and fervently prayed for the
coming of the day of equal rights, duties and
hopes.
INTERSTATE COMMERCE.
The Bill Under Consideration j n
the Senate.
Washington, May 6.— After the trans
action of some routine business in the sen
ate this morning, Mr. Cullora called up ihe
interstate commerce bill, winch it had
been agreed should be considered during
the morning hour. During the debate
which followed a great number of amend
ments were submitted and ordered to be
printed, among them the following:
Providing that whenever any common car
rier shall violate, or refuse to obey, any re
quirement of the railroad commission to
apply to the United States circuit court for
a hearing on short notice in the matter com
plained of, without the formal pleading and
pleadings necessary in ordinary equity suits.
The amendment further authorized the
court if it find the company guilty of dis
obedience to cause it to forfeit a stun not to
exceed SSOO a day after a day to be named
by the court. Mr. Edmunds explained the
object of his amendment to be to make it
impossible for railroad companies to tie up
complaints against them by legal proceed
ings and delays. This amendment is now
the pending amendment. An amendment
submitted by Mr. Morgan relates to con
spiracy. It provides that if two or more
persons with intent to prevent the
MOVEMENT OF ANY LOCOMOTIVE,
car, or train used or about to be used for
carrying passengers from one state to
another, or to or from any territory, or to
or from a foreign country, or to or from
any Indian tribe shall conspire together,
or agree together, or unite with a
common intent unlawfully to obstruct
or prevent the movement of such
locomotive, car or train, or the loading or
unloading of any such car etc.. or to put in
peril the personal security of any officer or
employe of any railroad company, shall be
guilty of conspiracy, and on convictiou shall
be punished by imprisonment for not more
than six months or by a fine of not more
than $500, or both, as the court shall direct.
Mr. Miller from the committee on educa
tion and labor, reported favorably a bill
applying to letter carriers, the provision of
section 3738 of the revised statutes, making
eight hours a days work. It was unanim
ously agreed that a vote should be taken on
the state commerce bill before adjourn
ment on Tuesday next. The senate then
went into executive sesssion and w hen
the doors were reopened, adjourned
until Monday.

Special to the Globe.
Chicago, May 6,— The anarchists Spies,
Fielden, and Schwab, who have been held
to the grand jury for murder, were loaded
into a patrol wagon about ten o'clock this
morning and taken to the armory with a
strong guard of police. They were taken
upstairs where they were photographed
and were then loaded into the wagon again
and taken to the central station. August
Spies was born in Hesse, Germany, in 1850,
and came out when 38 years of age, start
ing a Socialist paper six years later. H8
is the editor and presumptive proprietor of
the Arbelter-Zeitung, or labor journal, as
the anarchist handbill is misnamed. The
discovery of dynamite in the office ap
peared to surprise Spies, who denied any
knowledge of it, and pretended to think
that the police put it there themselves. He
also deprecated, while in his cell, charged
with murder, the throwing of the bomb, as
"ill-timed and outrageous." The speech
which he bad delivered
JUST BEFOUE TUE FIEXDISII ACT
he declared to have been the most temper
ate he made. When Spies first came to
this city in 1877 or '78, he obtained em
ployment with H. Sanders, an umbrella
maker, at 98 per week. Mr. Sanders says
he worked faithfully at the trade; was in
his employ live years, and was finally paid
§15 per week. By this time Spies became
dissatislied and determined to start out for
himself. As he was smart and energetic
he managed to get control of the paper,
with which his name has since
been connected. His former employer
says that, although the man while
with him was faithful and competent, he
had a mania for notoriety, and always
wanted to have his name mentioned in con
nection with any matter of neighborhood
interest. The field the anarchist has been
cultivating has evidently produced more of
the notoriety harvest than he dreamed of
when sowing the seed. Sam Fielden. the
English member of the trio, is three years
older than Spies. He was
HORN IN LANCASHIRE
and is a mill hand by occupation when he
consents to work with his hands. He
claims to have preached Mrthodism and to
have been converted to materialism and so
cialism . five years since. His connection
with every organization to which he has
belonged has been a "prominent" one, to
credit him. " Another of the anarchists un
der arrest is Michael Schwab is a German
bookbinder. who caino to Chicago
from Milwaukee six years ago,
and got a job in the
Arbeiter Zeittrag office. He held the posi
tion of telegraph translator, and in addi
tion wrote an occasional editorial on some
minor subject. A. R. Parsons, the uncap
tured American riot inciter, is the son of
the ; famous Confederate general, W. H.
Parsons. He is well kuown in Pittsburg
and Houston. In the former city he is
quoted as saying last January, when asked
by a reporter if it was true that a quantity
of bombs had been discovered in the office
of the Alarm in Chicago:
': Certainly it is time. Wo do not pretend
to make a secret of the manufacture of these
bombs to be employed by anarchists every
where, upon emergency. I have two flue
specimens with me in the inside pocket of
my coat. These bombs are largely manufac
tured right here in Pittsburg and nearly
every Sunday when the weather permits
platoons of the local anarchists go out into
the surrounding country and practice the
throwing of these bombs."
SWITCHMEN WALK OUT.
Freight Business Abandoned on
Several Chicago Itoads.
Chicago, May 9.— Just as the officials
of all the railroads coming in over the Chi
cago & Western Indiana tracks which in
clude the Wabash, the Grand Trunk, the
Chicago & Atlantic and the Chicago &
Eastern Illinois, had concluded that they
would try and open up freight traffic in
the regular way, they were confronted
with a strike that makes them all hesitate
about receiving any freight whatever. The
switch tenders for the Western Indiana
road at Forty-first street and at Grand
Cressing quit work this afternoon and vir
tually blocked traffic on all these roads.
Passenger trains and especially mail
trains were allowed to pass but freights
stood no show. The men at Forty-first
street number about eighteen. They say
they receive but $45 per . month for twelve
hours' work per day. On Monday they
asked that wages be raised to §55 per
month, and their demands being refused
to-day, they struck and refused to let en
gines out on the road or get into the round
house, or to pull out any cars. A North
western engine with four cars waited on
the north arm of the stock yards "V" for
hours in a vain hope that somebody would
throw a switch, but nobody did so and the
engine was compelled to back into the
yards. The big switch gates at Fortieth
street were thrown
ACROSS THE MAIN TRACKS
at noon and kept closed for hours, but were
finally opened to let a suburban train pass
through. Then the gates were unhinged
and thrown on the ground by order of the
officials. The train, however, met with a
"Wabash engine on thertracks at Forty-first
street coming in an opposite direction. No
body could throw the switch, and the
Wabash engineer declined for a considera
ble time to back down to Forty-ninth
street. A crowd of several hundred stood
by and cheered. Later in the afternoon the
Wabash road sent out eight special police
men; and they went south with an engine
to liberate one of their locomotives. The
strikers did not molest them, and General
Manager Lyford of the Chicago & Eastern
Illinois threw several switches personally
in an attempt to eet out a freight train that
had been ; abandoned. The engineers and
firemen seemed to be in sympathy with the
strikers and refused to pull trains until well
satisfied that the persons throwing switches
for them - understood their business. The
town of Lake police were repre
sented by three or four officers, who,
however, took no action of any kind.
GOTHAM ANARCHISTS.
The Ruffians Drilled in the I so of
■ "• ■ Y;-,Y- ,vV; -'i Dynamite.
New York, May 6.— Among the labor
ing' men in the city there appears to be but
one opinion as to the rioting and bloodshed
in Chicago, and that is emphatic condemna
tion of the action of the anarchist leaders.
The anarchists are not strong in the vicinity
of New York. There are about eight
groups of them in this neighborhood and
altogether they number but few more than
1,000. ., Six of the groups are in New York
city, one on Jersey City heights and one
in Newark. They have a rifle corps, con
sisting of three companies, which meets for
drill about once a week, The anarchists
are not united now, John Most and Justus
Schwab leading the two factions. These
factions now hate each other worse than
they do the common enemy. With these
people the honest workmen
HAVE NO SYMPATHY.
The police know their places of meeting,
and keep a sharp watch on them. An an
archist who is a member of - C^xoup No. 2,
said: "I don't know that the public has
any right to know what our real strength
is. We are stronger and better organized
than people have any idea of. We have a
college in New Jersey, where the members
are taught how to use dynamite and Greek
fire. We have rifle corps organized, not to
provoke a tight, but to be able to cope suc
cessfully with the police and malitia when
the struggle, which is bound to come, is on.
us. The Chicago tight is simply the first
gun of tha revolution. Our brothers there
did nobly, but they were not as well pre
pared as they might have been, or more of
the blue-coats would have got their last
dose. Our motto is 'Neither God nor Mas
ter,' and our doctrines may be simply stated
as 'Down with church, state, capital.
Knights of Labor, and other kindred vil
lainies.'"
TIIS-: SITUATION ELSEWHERE.
Some Detroit Strikers Return to
Work While Other Men Quit.
Detroit, Mich., May 6.— The strikers
in this city are still quiet, but determined.
Several factories where the nieu had no
grievance resumed work during the absence
of the over-awing htrikers. Two hundred
employes at Murphy's chair factory, 100 at
the Detroit Carriage Woodwork company's
shops, and eighty coopers resumed work.
On the other hand, between 400 and 500
painters struck this morning for nine hours'
work a day and ten hours' pay. Only 100
of the 675 employes of the Pullman" car
works returned to work this morning, and
they worked only a few minutes, the com
pany sending them home. The men strongly
favor nine hours. It was reported that a
Gatling gun had been sent from Lansing,
but the report is denied.
FOKCED TO SHUT DOWX.
Muskegox, Mich., May 6. — The Mus
kegon Shingle & Lumber company's mill,
the largest on the lake, shut down this
morning owing to the blockade by the Chi
cago strike. The mill has been running
day and night, employing ISO men and cut
ting 1,000,000 shingles a day, and has
0,000,000 piled on the dock. There have
been no shipments for a week, and the mill
will not start until the strike ends.
UEFUSED TUE TEHMS.
New York, May 6.— The situation in the
strike of the Third avenue railroad em
ployes is unchanged. The strikers did not
return to work tins morning, because they
were not satisfied with the terms proposed
by the company. Everything is quiet
around the depot, and the cars are stili
guarded by the police.
FREIGHT HA.NDLF.KS GO BACK.
Cincinnati. May G, — The strike of the
freight handlers is at an end. The men
went to work this morning in the Cincin
nati Southern, the Cincinnati, Indianapolis,
St. Louis &, Chicago, Ohio & Mississippi
and Cincinnati, Washington & Baltimore
freight yards, and the others resumed this
afternoon. The exact terms are not made
known, but it is generally understood that
the men have an advance of from 15 to 25
cents per day. This is recognized as
banishing all danger of disorder, and peace
ful settlements with the other strikers are
expected to follow soon.
COAL MINERS QUIET.
Pittsburg, Pa., May 6.— One thousand
coal miners employed in mines along the
Panhandle railroad struck this morning.
The strikers want the Columbus scale and
semi-monthly pay days. They also refuse
to load coal for the Eastern markets until
the strike in the Third district is settled.
At liend's mines 400 men are out for an
advance. Mr. liend refuses to concede the
increase because all differences were re
cently settled by arbitration. Seventy-five
negroes are still working, and others will
be imported if the old men do not return to
work. The strikers threaten to mob the
negroes if they take viieir places.
DECIDED NOT TO STRIKE.
Cleveland. May 6. — Delegates repre
senting 1,200 coal miners of the Mahoning
valley met at Youngstown, Ohio, to-day to
consider the refusal of the operators to grant
their demand for an increase of 10 cents per
ton in the price of mining. The convention
decided not to strike for the present, and it
is probable the differences will be sub
mitted to arbitration. j
A WOUNDED SOCIALIST.
Capture of a Russian Shot Through
the Leer.
Chicago, May 6. — Capt. O'Donnell of
the Twelfth street station, was informed
to-day in a quiet way that a wounded so
cialist was concealed at No. 10 Fisk street.
The captain and a patrol wasron loaded
with officers were driven to the place to
make an investigation, and Joseph Michal
ski was found. He was in bed when ar
rested, and had an ugly wound in the
right lee below the knee, the buillet having
passed through from the left side of the leg.
The wound was in a rather unhealthy
condition, and was undoubtedly made by a
38-calibre ball. The man was sleeping
with a revolver under his head. He said
he was a Russian Pole and had been in
America since September. Tuesday even
ing he went with a friend to the meeting
on Desplaines street and received the
wound in the fracas that occurred. The
object of his going to the meeting, he
claimed, was to learn the English language.
After being shot, he was driven to his
boarding house in a carriage. When asked
who employed the carriage, he said that be
did not know the man's name. They were
both badly wounded, a ball having entered
his companion's face close to the nose
and passing out below the ear, Michalski
when in the old country was a telegraph
operator. He says he came to this country
because he could get better wages. His
alleged reason for having the revolver un
der his pillow was that he had been told
that America was a very dangerous coun
try. He was taken to the Cook county
hospital.
ANOTHER OFFICER DEAD.
Officer George Miller, wounded during
the hay-market encounter between the an
archists and the police, died at 10:50 p. m.
to-night in the county hospital. This is
the third death among the police, Deagan
and Barrett, the latter of whom died at
11:30 this forenoon, being the other two.
CAPITAL. COMBINES.
Chicago ITletal Manufacturers Form
an Organization.
Chicago, May 6.— The metal manufac
turers of the city to the number of 100 held
a meeting to-day and perfected an organi
zation. About every manufacturer in the
city signed the constitution, pledging him
self to stand by his brethren whatever be
falls capital or labor employed in the
foundry and machinery business. The ex
ecutive committee is not as yet announced,

Special to the Globe.
Bratnerd, May — The second game
between the Duluth and Brainerd baseball
clubs was more satisfactory all around than
yesterday's game. Bendy of Brainerd um
pired. Some desirable changes had been
made in both clubs, which resulted in an
interesting and exciting game. The first
few innings were close, and the Brainerd
boys were at one time 4 ahead. The tide
turned, however, and Duluth rapidly gained
until the close, when the score stood 12 to
8 iii their favor. Both clubs played well,
considering that neither had had any prac
tice. The Brainerd nine had never played
together until yesterday.
Against the liecord.
Since the recent fifty-mile bicycle race at
Washington rink between Prince and
Woodside, in which Prince was defeated, it
has been repeatedly stated by several that
Prince could not beat the world's record for
fifty miles, which is 2 hours,
44 minutes and 37 seconds. Last even
ing, while the matter was being discussed
Henry Seeley offered to bet $100 to $50
that Prince could not do it. Prince, who
was pressed, promptly covered the money,
and this evening the race against time will
take place at the Washington rink.
The condition of Prince is good, and he
says he will beat the record if it is a possible
thing. The pacemakers are T. W. Eck,
Fred Shaw and Mr. Dingley.
Taken Easily by him so.

run on each. Bennett made the only run
scored by the Detroits, but it was a home
, run made off a strike over the left-field
fence. The Chicagos earned . four out of

Chicago, May 6. — The coroner held an
inquest this afternoon on the body of
Charles Kister, who was killed in Tuesday

Special to the Globe.
Buffalo, N. T., May — The morn
ing Times has received the follow Wash*
ington special:
Reports of President Cleveland's marrlags
have thus far not been confirmed by anyon*
in the White House, but the Times' corres*
pondent was able to obtain, yesterday, a prac
tical admission from the president that th«
reports were true. Mr. Cleveland said, "I da
not concede the right of newspapers to inquira
into my private airs.and before this I would,
have requested them to cease printing
all the gossip had it not been for the fact
that such a request would have been con
sidered merely in tho negative. The news
papers, as a rule, have not treated me fairly,
and I believe that the mere mention of a
desire on my part to have nothing:
SAID ABOUT MISS FOLSOJI
would only incite the reporters to outdo their
previous efforts."
"Then you are going to be married?"
"I will not make any statement about that/*
In the course of further conversation th«
president refused to deny the reports of hi*
marriage, and practically admitted that the
reports were true. He said in effect that an
arrangement had been made by which nothing
would be said about the engagement until a
time which had been decided upon by the par*
ties directly interested. 4The impression given
was that the president would like to confirm
the report, but that through feelings of deli,
cacy he did not feel that he was at liberty ta
talk about it. Buffalo men who are in- Wash
ington are unanimous in saying that the pres*
ident's wedding will take place in June, and
most of them believe that the wedding will
TAKE PLACE IN BUFFALO.
It is conceded that Miss Folsom wants to ba
married in the White house, but Mr. Cleve
land's wishes will be consulted, and he if
known to be averse to display of any kind oa
such an occasion. He regards a marriage al
a matter which concerns only the contract*
ing parties, and something that the publiO
generally should not bother about. In talk"
ing about the marriage of friends of his, h«
always deprecated the display and has re«
quently said that, if he got married, whic*
then was considered an improbability, h<
would prefer to have the ceremony pep*
formed quietly.

Mrs. Kason- Suspected of Kflliny
Several Persons.
Special to the Globe.
Rutland, Yt., May — During the ex
amination yesterday of Mrs. Harriet E.
Nason, charged with poisoning her son-in
law, Dan C. Parker, in order to obtain his
life insurance, it was developed that tha
district attorney had caused the body of a
young son of Mrs. Nason's sister to be also
exhumed. Mrs. Nason is also suspected of
having poisoned him. Young Nason died
at Gorham, N. H., about six months ago.
Mrs. Nason was visiting her sister at the
time. The terrible suffering of tha
child and his peculiar symptoms caused tha
physicians to think he had been poisoned,
but there was no reason for attaching sus
picion to any one. It is now believed that
Mrs. Nason also poisoned her late husband,
and that she did some of her crimes simply
from love of poisoning. The remains of
Mrs. C. S. Debritton, who died very sud
denly some months ago in Rutland, were
exhumed to-day, and will be submitted to a
careful expert analysis. The circumstances
of her death were very peculiar. Mrs.
Nason was her most intimate friend, and
frequently dined and supped with her.
Many times after eating with Mrs. Nasou
she was taken very ill, and unaccountably
sick headache and pains In the back ana
legs. Mrs. Nason is suspected of othei
poisoning cases.
