Mrs. Susan Maxcy Hanged Herself In Great Novelist Passed Away Floating of Bonds Dispels Rockefeller's Big Offering All Right. an Outhouse at an Early Hour Hearing. This Morning. This Morning. Clouds. Mrs. Susan Maxey, aged about GO yearn, committed suicide early this morning by hanging herself in an outhouse in the rear o£ 1735 Madison .avenue, Dunmore. She was missed from her home about 5 o'clock this morning and a search was made, with the result that her dead body was found. She had tied a piece of rope to a beam and after fastening her neck In a noosa jumped from a chair. When the dead body'was found life had been extinct for several hours. It is thought that ill health and family troubles caused the rash act. Mrs. Maxcy underwent an operation about a month ago and as her health was not Improved by It she commenced to brood over her troubles. A possible indication of the emptor's attitude lies iu bis evident unwillingness to send Grand Duke Nicholas Nlcbolalevlteh to the theater of war to supersede General l.inevitch. It apparently Is felt that Llnevlteh since taking General Kuropatkin's place has not improved the Kussinn army's positlon sufficiently to warrant the czar in jeopardizing the military reputation of one of his kinsmen at the head of forces that may lie doomed to capture or hopeless rout. INDICTMENTS CERTAIN COMMITTEE DECIDES. DEATH WAS EXPECTED PEACE PARTY GAINS. The Famous Writer Had Reports From Front Discourage Further War. Packing Managers Before the Grand Jury. Reasons Stated for Ground Taken. Been in a State of Coma. Three public funeral services had been arranged. Five were necessat-y to begin to satisfy the public, and thousands had no opportunity to take an active part in the expressions of grief and sympathy. Chicago, March 24.—Wholesale and retail meat dealers from western cities contributed to the fund of information which the federal grand jury is acquiring in its investigation of the business methods of the packers' combine. Their testimony, according to a reliable source, related chiefly to matters concerning the regulation of prices of meats, and particularly to facts explanatory of the disparity between wholesale and retail prices. Amiens, March 24.—Jules Verne fell Into a state of coma early this morning and a few hours later passed quietly away. St. Petersburg, March 24.—The-successful conclusion of the internal loan of $100,000,Out) at the emission price of tlti comes as a gleam of sunshine in an otherwise clouded situation. Of this amount the government savings banks takes one-fourth and private banks and au underwriting syndicate the remainder.Boston, March 24.—In the face of the storm of protest that lias come from ministers of the Congregational and other churches of New England it is stated on good authority that the prudential committee of the American board of foreign missions, with headquarters in this city, will vote unanimously next Tuesday to accept the Rift of $100,000 from John D. Rockefeller. The money will be used for the benefit of the mission schools in the orient. The conviction that the emperor will send a tentative proposal to Paris for discussion between the French minister, M. Delcasse, and Japau's representative there, Dr. Montono, is gainiug ground. It even Is repeated that a hint of the mikado's views already bus been given to Russia and that when the provisional treaty or suggested skeleton thereof goes to the French capital and ultimately to France's representative iu Tokyo it will run along lines likely to be considered with promise of favor by the Japanese emperor. The day of sorrow opened with a solemn high mass of requiem in St. Patrick's Roman Catholic church for four members of the parish who are believed to have perished in the flames. Jules Verne was known over the whole civilized world through his books which have been translated into almost every tongue. He was more than a great romancer, although he used fiction as the method through which his wonderful Ideas were given to the world at large. In his writings he pictured affairs in a manner that only imagination of a highly constructive order could attain. With great foresight he saw the accomplishments of the future and his books pointed the way to science, although inventors have not been able to keep abreast of the novelist. In a recent interview, Mr. Verne predicted that all fictional findings would be realized.Foley & Co., Chicago, originated Honey and Tar as a throat and lung remedy, on account of the great merit and popularity of Foley's Honey and Tar many Imitations are offered for the genuine. Ask for Foley's Honey and Tar and refuse any substitute offered as no other preparation will give the same satisfaction. It is mildly laxative. It contains ho opiates, and is safest for children and delicate ersons. H. H. Tinker. The Original. In the afternoon public funeral services were held at the City theater, the Porter Congregational, St. Paul's 10 piscopal and First Congregational ebtirehes and at Canton hall. During the services militiamen, labor organizations and fraternal societies formed in line in readiness to escort the remains of the unidentified dead to the cemetery.The internal situation in Russia is a source of continued apprehension. Iu the south of Russia workingmen and peasants already are joining hands, and from the Caucasus, Poland and other quarters encounters between discontented workers and the police, with fatal consequences, are reported. Prominent representatives of tho packing concerns also went before the grand jury and are said to have given important testimony relating to tlie private car lines and their connections with the packers. They were reticent after their examination in (lie jury room and could scarcely lie persuaded to give their names and addresses and business connections. This action on the part of the prudential committee will follow the unanimous recommendation of a subcommittee of three that the gift be accepted. The recommendation will be made next week, according to a statement given out by one high in the councils of the board. The emperor's trend toward a pacific solution of the situation iu the far east is said to be growing steadily, and the rumor that his imperial majesty not only lias inclined markedly toward the peace party in his cabinet, but even has taken a specific step toward ascertaining Japan's disposition, is circulated freely. Peasant Slaughter Causes Excitement. Warsaw, March 24.—The shooting ot twenty-one peasants at Lamenta has aroused intense excitement in the whole district. The action of the authorities in shooting down unarmed peasants is angrily criticised, and a deputation of' residents of Kutno is proceeding to Warsaw to lay complaints before the governor general, it Is said that the chief of police refused to allow the wounded to be removed and that he finally ordered them to lie taken to Kutno, six hours' journeD in peasants' carts. The service at the City theater was the formal public manifestation. On the stage were clergymen representing practically every religious denomination in the city, the members of the city government and the members of the Joint Shoe council. Mayor Edward H. Keith presided, and near him sat Governor William L. Douglas. 'SQUIRE VIOLATED THE FACTORY LAWS The main issue of the criticism from the different ministers is that Rockefeller's money Is "tainted" because of the methods used in amassing it and that such donations should not be accepted for use in Christian organizations.Jules Verne was born at Nantes, Feb. 3, 1828. His father was a solicitor and barrister and expected to bring up his son in the same prefession. Tb boy, however, began to write at/the age of twelve, his first efforts being directed toward what he afterwards described as 'dreadful poetry." He became greatly intenested in geography and read all the books of travel he could lay his hands on. He was sent to Paris and continued his study in the Latin quarter. There he became acquainted with Alexander Dumas, the younger, and the two were chums, writing together. Victor Hugo was the vogue at that time and Verne fell under his influence. The witnesses who have testified are as follows: It. C. Howe, manager for the Armour packing plant at Omaha: John Nangle, manager of the C'udahy beef department at Kansas City: John L. Ileger, retail meat dealer. Kansas City: T. W- Kelly, wholesale meat dealer. Cedar Rapids, la.: Robert Hall, retail meat dealer. Kansas City: J. A. Meaghan, sales agent of the Armour company. Chicago. EilwarilwViile .lust Ice Was Given a Heavy Sentence for Permitting tt Minor to Work. Peace Party Gaining, Justice of the peace Edward Williams, of Edwardsville, was fined $50 and costs this morning before Alderman Brown, of Wilkesbarre, for a violation of the factory laws. The charge against the justice was that he had issued an affidavit that a girl named Annie Lewis could read and write when she was uuable to do either. The allegation was that the parents of the girl had made application for an affidavit of the nature required by the factory laws and that It had been issued by Justice Williams. Mr. Williams has not yet paid his fine. It is claimed that this is the second offense of this nature committed by him and the factory inspector decided to take action. The general feeling in favor of ending the war as rapidly as possible is on the increase, not only among the public, but In the more prudent official circles. It is admitted the war faction still has a strong grip 011 the more ambitious members of the imperial family and that most of the graud dukes are urging 011 the emperor what they call the sacred duty of upholding Russia's honor 011 the field of battle to the bitter end. but it is asserted with seeming confidence that wiser counsels will prevail, and the czar, while instructing General Linevltch to keep tip a show of resistance, will yield to the importunities of the rapidly growing peace party. It is the consensus of opinion, however. among the members of the prudential committee that the American board of foreign missions Is not an institution for reforming tlie private character of individuals who may give It money nor can It be within its jurisdiction to form a board of inquiry to investigate the business methods of such donors. BEST SPUING MEDICINE. Our Deading Druggist, II. II. Tinker, Out of Ills Vast Stock and Extensive Knowledge of Medicines Heeomnicnds Vinol as the Best. Japanese Flank Movements. Guitshu Pass., March 24.-J-General Linevltch, the new commander in chief of the army, received the members of his staff yesterday. Reports persist of Japanese turning movements on both flanks of tlie Russian army. Chinese state that the Japanese have recruited many Chinese bandits and that probably they are now able to count a superiority in cavalry as well as in infantry. The branch of the Russo-Cliinese bank has removed from Kirin to Harbin. Task Underestimated. A score of witnesses were ready to testify when the grand jury convened, but only six were called Into the jury room. It was easily apparent that the assistant district attorney, C. B. .Morrison. had missed in his calculations of the number of men who could lie examined each day and that the jury had fallen far behind its task set by that official. "At this season of the year," said Mr. H. H. Tinker the other evening. "there isn't a man, woman or child in fitisioit who does not need a medicine to purify and enrich the blood, to induce an appetite, to promote a digestion and create strength, and we are safe in saying we have never sold anything In our store equal to Vinol for this purpose." Money Wa« Solicited. Verne'e first successes were stories written for the Parisian newspapers. His first long successful story was written when he was 25. This was "Five Weeks In a Balloon." The money was solicited from Mr. Rockefeller, and, like gifts that have been presented since the organization of the society in 1810, this donation will be accepted and used according to the conditions agreed upon between Mr. Rockefeller and members of the committee. "Around the World in Eighty Days," "Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea." "The. Flight to France," "The Floating City" are among the best known of .his books. The Colonel's Waterloo, Among the men waiting to be given the opportunity to testify and depart for their homes are Michael Murphy of Omaha, general manager of the Cudahy packing plants at Kansas City. Omaha and Sioux City; H. F. W ilk Ins, manager of the beef department of the Cudahy plant at Omahn, and Thomas Creigh of Omaha, attorney for the Cudahy company. Their testimony Is expected to be the most important thus far given to the graud jury. This new way of administering the vital principles of cod liver oil has wrought a wonderful change in the field of medicine". There Is no need to take greasy oil, emulsions or poisonous drugs to purify and enrich the blood and 'create health and strength, for we guarantee that pure, simple and delicious preparation, Vinol, will do It, or your money will be returned. Colonel John M. Fuller, of Honey fJrove, Texas, nearly met his Waterloo from liver and kidney trouble. In a rocent letter, he says "I was nearly dead of these complaints, and, although I tried my family doctor, he did nle no gooci; so I got a 50c bottle of your great Electric Bitters, which cured me. I consider them the best medicine on earth, and thank Qod who gave you the knowledge to make them." Sold and guaranteed to cure dyspepsia, biliousness and kidney disease, by Wm. C. Price, Chas. Waters, Geo. D. Stroh, West Pittston, druggists, at 50c a bottle. Dispatches from the zone of activity, asserting that liflo.ooo men are needed by the new commander in chief to hold the enemy below Harbin and to protect his line of communication, played » strong part In the deliberations of the cabinet, it Is said, and influenced the emperor to listen more attentively to the arguments of M. Wltte and other peace advocates than he had done After the memorial against accepting the gift was presented to the prudential committee a few days ago a special committee consisting of Samuel B. Cahen, president of the entire board; the Rev. John H. Dennison of the Central Congregational church, and Professor Edward C. Moore of Harvard college was appointed to consider the matter and to report at the meeting am next Tuesday.

A large body of tho enemy in disorder is retreating toward the northeast along the line of the railway, A part of the enemy's cavalry has halted at a point within two miles north of Changtu." Mrs. Ruse ICavlgne, of Burlington. Vt., writes: "Vinol is the best spring medicine I have ever used; it creates an appetite, purities the blood and takes away nil feeling of lassitude. My work, which seemed a burden before taking Vinol, is now a pleasure." SPECIAL NOTICES. "There will be 110 whitewash of the packers, you can depend upon that." said one of the high federal officials concerned In the investigation. "This grand Jury will sift the charges against the packers to the bottom. If we make out a case against the packers with the tlrRt fifty or the first twenty witnesses indictments -will lie returned, and the grand jury work will be ended. The government has a strong case, I will say that. I think Indictments for criminal violation of federal statutes certainly will be returned." SPECIAL NOTICES By a person high in the councils of the mission work it is-positively declared that the members of this special committee were uuanimonsly in favor of accepting the Rockefeller douation, and their action would control that of the fourteen members of the prudential committee.
