Chicago, Dec. 19—Three of the largeHt. financial institutions in the west— the Chicago National bank, the Home Savings bank and the Equitable Trust company—all of them controlled by .John It. Walsh of Chicago and in great measure owned by him, suspended operations. Their affairs will be liquidated as rapidly as possible, and they will go out of business. Washington, Dec. 19.—Advices received at the state department from Shanghai state that more than thirty foreigners and Chinese have been killed and wounded in riots there. The rioting was organized by the leaders of the antlforeign boycott. Washington, Dec. 19.—Washington yesterday celebrated the centennial of the establishment of the public schools of the District of Columbia. President Roosevelt gave an informal reception In the east room at the White House I in the afternoon to the district commissioners, members of the board of education, school officials, officers of the board of trade and others. In ad.dressing them the President said: POLICE OFFICERS THINK THEY HAVE A STRONG CIRCUMSTANTIAL CASE Testimony in the two grievances was taken before the board's last meeting held in Wilkesbarre, but no decision was reached at the time. These are the only grievances from District No. 1 that remain unsettled at the present time, and should a decision be rendered Friday this district will be cleared of all pending trouble. The Oerman consul was stoned by the rioters, and the American vice consul was injured. The foreign warships are landing men, and the volunteers have been called out, Chinese shops have been closed. While the Prisoner Was Absent From Home Yesterday Afternoon, a Blood-stained Pair of Trousers Belonging to Him Was Found in an Mr. Walsh, who was the president of the Chicago National bank and of the Equitable Trust company, and all the other officers and all the directors of the Chicago National bank have resigned. National Bank Examiner C. K. Bosworth has succeeded Mr. Walsh at the head of the Chicago National bank, and the places of the directors have been filled by men appointed by the Chicago clearing house. Two or three grievances will be presented from Districts 7 and 9 . "It has been my good fortune that | all of my children have received or are receiving, a portion of their education In the public schools of this district, In this city, and I feel that the advantage of them Is Incalculable. I certainly do not underrate the importance of the higher education,. It would be the greatest misfortune if we ever permitted such a warped and twisted view of democracy to obtain as would be implied In a denial of the advantage that comes to the whole naj tlon from the high education of the few who are able to take advantage of opportunity to obtain it. But while fully admitting this, It remains true that most Important of ail Is the education of the common school. The public schools are not merely the education centers for the mass of our people, but they are the factories of American citizenship. Incidentally to Its other work the public school does more than any other Institution of any kind, sort or description to Americanize the chlfd of foreign born parents who comes here when young, or is born here. Nothing else counts for as much In welding together Into one compact mass of citizenship the different race stocks which here are be,ing fused into a new nationality." The English warships in the river have landed * marines, who, together with volunteers from the foreign colonies, are guarding the streets and protecting property. The police station and a number of other buildings have been burned. The Delaware and Hudson miners of No. 5 colliery, Plymouth, have complained to the district office of the United Mine Workers that the decision of Umpire Charles P. Neill has not been carried out, but that the management has directed the local office of the company to coi\tinue payments for bottom bone in the same manner as they were doing at the time the complaint was presented to the conciliation board. Outhouse Vault. GAVE LIFE FOR A DOG r s. Charged with having murdered John Schlalkus, who was killed in Inkerman last Saturday night. Anthony Kernozlcky, aged 21 years, who boarded at the Schlalkus home, was committed to the county jail without ball this morning to await action by the grand jury. The commitment was made out by Alderman Barrett, before whom the warrant was sworn out, after a hearing held this morning In the city hall. Throughout the hearing, the prisoner stoutly maintained that he is innocent. Beyond this he would say nothing, in spite of a number of inquisitors who endeavored to secure a story from him. for clothing was carried on and the trousers and handkerchief were found. At this time the body of Schlalkus was still In the house. As soon as the articles were found and Identified the arrest was determined on, but the officers were given much worriment because Kernozlcky did not return. Finally Detective Jones and Chief Loftus started for this city to search for him, leaving Mr. Uffalussy on guard. About 5 o'clock Kernozlcky' returned and was placed under arrest on a warrant charging him with murder. He was taken to this city and placed in the jftll. Charles Barilla Burned to The American consul general, James L. ltodgers, at Shanghai telegraphed to the commander of the cruiser Baltimore, which was at Chingkiang, about 11 day from Shanghai up the Yangtse river, to proceed to Shanghai at once. The gunboat is with the Baltimore.Back of the new management stand the allied banks of Chicago, which have pledged their resources that every depositor shall be'paid to the last cent and that no customer of any one of the three institutions shall lose anything by reason of the suspension. This ilctton prevented a disastrous financial panic. Death Last Night. President Nichols says that he will take the matter up with Chairman Connell of the conciliation board at an early date. Fatal Fire Near Scene1 of the Confla- Presidents William Dettrey and John Fahy of Districts 7 and 9, United Mine Workers, and their stenographers, arrived In this city yesterday afternoon, and held a conference with District President Nichols. Just what the nature of the conference was, was not given out for publication, other than the fact that the officials were here to attend the argument in the Shea miners' certificate case, which will be argued on Thursday before Judges Edwards, Kelly and Newcomb. gration That Caused Death of Four Burke Children—Two .... Brothers Injured Willie Kscaplng From the Flames. City Undar Martial Law. Cause of the Collapse. The consul's latest message reports that Shanghai has been put under martial law and that all the foreigners are arming. The Immediate cause of the collapse of the Institutions controlled by Walsh Is said to be the large amount of money which tbey have lent to various private enterprises of his, notably the Routhem Indiana railway and the Bedford Quarries company of ludlana. Mr. Walsh says that if he could have had a little more time and been left untrammeled In his operations be could have saved his banks and made enormous profits for himself and his associates. At the hearing* this morning the prisoner would not answer some of the questions put to him and was very cautious about his replies. He said he did not commit the murder and knew nothing about it. His case will be given to the next grand jury. The attack on the foreigners grew out of a strike organized by the Boxer leaders and of a conflict of authority between the International mixed court and the muuitipal authorities of Shanghai.The authorities have what they consider a strong circumstantial case against Kernozicky. The strongest bit of evidence Is a pair of blood-stained trousers which the prisoner Is known to have worn last Saturday and which were found in the sump- of a closet by County Detective Jones and Special Officer Ed. Uffalessy yesterday afternoon. They also found a blood-stained handkerchief. The prisoner admitted that he wore the trousers on Saturday, but would offer no explanation of how they became stained with blood or how they got where they were found. Charles Barilla, a 12-year-old Lithuanian youth, was burned to death in a Are that destroyed the Barilla home, on Main street, 3ebastopol. It is believed that the boy's death was due to his efforts to save a pet dog from the flames, as he was at a point from which he might have escaped from the building when he turned back and met death. The evidence against Kernozlcky is not yet complete, but the authorities will make an endeavor to get the missing links as soon as possible. These are the chief facts they have at present: On Saturday last Kernozlcky was at his boarding place and had several whispered conversations with Schlalkus. He also asked him several times in the hearing of others, to go out with him. Towards evening Kernozicky left the house. Some time between 9 o'clock and 10—the murder Is supposed to have been committed about 9 o'clock—Kernozicky hurriedly entered his boarding' place and rushed to his room. He seemed excited and gave a small boy 50 cents to hurry for some whisky for him. Kernozlcky was quite composed when arrested last night, but this morning he seemed much excited. Looking ahead, it is this fact which causes anxiety here. State department ofllclals are certain the Chinese government will make prompt amends for the violence done to foreigners. 'Hie government is not responsible for the disorder. The natives have got beyond its control. This is the worst feature of the rioting, which, it Is feared, will spread to the interior provinces and then become general. SCHOOL PROGRAMME. Public exercises were held last night. Secretary Taft was present as m. reresentative of the general government and the Rev. Dr. Edward Ever. ett Hale, chaplain of the Senate, delivered the principal address. The liabilities of- the three institutions are estimated in the aggregate at $20,000,0(10. Against this amount the banks and the trust company have resources that are on a conservative estimate worth $16,000,000. The bonds of tlie Southern Indiana Railroad company are estimated by Mr. Walsh at $16,- 000,000. They are considered by the comptroller, the state auditor and the clearing house committee to be worth a little more than half that sum. Their value is a matter to be determined in the future, and the presidents of the local banks admit that if the estimate of Mr. Walsh is found to be correct the two banks and the trust comiwiuy will not only pay all of their debts, hut leave a surplus besides. The (ire broke out shortly after 9 o'clock. Mr. and Mrs. Barilla had left earlier in the evening to go to the corpse house of John Schlalkus, who was murdered Saturday night. They left at home three sons—Anthony Radzvin, son of Mrs. Barilla, and Michael and Charles Barilla, aged 15, 13 and 12 years, respectively. The three went to bed and were sound asleep, when Charles was aroused by the smell of smoke. He quickly aroused his brothers and the three rushed for a nearby window, which was about 12 feet from the ground. Anthony made an effort to open It, but could not, so he got a piece of furniture and smashed the frame and glass. He climbed quickly out and dropped to the ground. In landing he sprained one of his ankles. Michael next stepped to the window and followed his brother. The result of his drop was even worse than in the case of Anthony, for Michael dislocated one ankle and fractured the same leg a short distance above the ankle. Both boys looked up and saw their brother at the window, apparently ready to follow them. Suddenly, without the slightest hesitation, he stepped back from the window and disappeared.

Schlaikus Funeral Was Very Shanghai, Middle China, Dee. 10.- The riot has been suppressed by the police, marines from the British warships and foreigners who armed themselves. Twenty Chinese roughs were killed and a few foreigners were wounded, but no foreigner was killed. Largely Attended. The belief that Kernozlcky was Infatuated with Mrs. Schlalkus, who Is a young and pretty woman, was takiDn as a motive for the crime. The Idea of the authorities is that Kernozlcky, believing that he could win the woman for himself if Schlalkus was out of the way, planned to kill him and then did so. The funerals of the two Polanders who were murdered last Saturday night took place this morning. The funeral of Martin Alacks was from the home of his brother-in-law In Inkerman. The body was taken to St. Kazimir's church, where a mass of requiem was sung. The remains were interred in the Lithuanian cemetery. The murder of Schlalkus was a brutal one.' His body was found near the Inkerman Laurel Line station, with his head and body terribly lacerated. At first it was thought that he was shot but an examination showed that he had been beaten in a terrible manner with a hammer. The hammer has not been found. Assaulted and Robbed In Gotham. Private Property Turned Over. The director* of tlie two banks as well ns Mr. Walsh, who has turned over all his private property as well as that standing in the name of Mrs. Walsh, have pledged real estate and securities valued at $5,000,000, making tt total in assets of $20,000,000, estimating the railroad bonds at $8,000,000, against the $20,000,000 liabilities. New York, Deo. 19—With three ribs aud his collarbone broken, Charles Fass, fifty-four years old, a wealthy brewer, lies In his home unconscious from the effects of a holdup by three men at Eighth avenue and One Hundred and Thirteenth street, within a block of his home. Mr. Fass was robbed of $5,000 worth of valuables which were on his person. His condition is critical. During the investigation following the murder It was learned that Kernozlcky was still at the Schlalkus home. While he was temporarily absent. yesterday afternoon, the search The funeral of John Schl&lkus, who was murdered In Inkerman, was a very large one and the attendants included members of societies to which he belonged. Schlalkus was a much respected man among his fellowcountrymen. The Mass In St. Kazimlr's was by Rev. Mclhale Szedvldls and burial was made In the Lithuanian cemetery. I ANNIVERSARY CELEBRATION OFFICERS CHOSEN BY THE BARBERS For some time there has been n difference of opinion between the officers of the Chicago National bank and Comptroller Ridgley regarding the method of conducting the affairs of the bank. The comptroller took exception to the large loans made by the bank to private enterprises of Mr. Walsh and declared that a portion of them must be called in. Assurances were given, the comptroller declares, that this would be done, but the promises were not kept. Only one reason can be given for his act. It is the opinion of his brothers and others that he heard the whining of a small dog, a family pet, which had been left in a downstairs room, and turned back in an endeavor to save the animal's life. A few seconds after he had left, the place where he had stood broke into flames. Mrs. Mary A. Davis Wtas Visited by a Local Union Held an Election Last Bernhardt Acts For Charity.

Chicago, Dec. 19—Three of the largeHt. financial institutions in the west— the Chicago National bank, the Home Savings bank and the Equitable Trust company—all of them controlled by .John It. Walsh of Chicago and in great measure owned by him, suspended operations. Their affairs will be liquidated as rapidly as possible, and they will go out of business. Washington, Dec. 19.—Advices received at the state department from Shanghai state that more than thirty foreigners and Chinese have been killed and wounded in riots there. The rioting was organized by the leaders of the antlforeign boycott. Washington, Dec. 19.—Washington yesterday celebrated the centennial of the establishment of the public schools of the District of Columbia. President Roosevelt gave an informal reception In the east room at the White House I in the afternoon to the district commissioners, members of the board of education, school officials, officers of the board of trade and others. In ad.dressing them the President said: POLICE OFFICERS THINK THEY HAVE A STRONG CIRCUMSTANTIAL CASE Testimony in the two grievances was taken before the board's last meeting held in Wilkesbarre, but no decision was reached at the time. These are the only grievances from District No. 1 that remain unsettled at the present time, and should a decision be rendered Friday this district will be cleared of all pending trouble. The Oerman consul was stoned by the rioters, and the American vice consul was injured. The foreign warships are landing men, and the volunteers have been called out, Chinese shops have been closed. While the Prisoner Was Absent From Home Yesterday Afternoon, a Blood-stained Pair of Trousers Belonging to Him Was Found in an Mr. Walsh, who was the president of the Chicago National bank and of the Equitable Trust company, and all the other officers and all the directors of the Chicago National bank have resigned. National Bank Examiner C. K. Bosworth has succeeded Mr. Walsh at the head of the Chicago National bank, and the places of the directors have been filled by men appointed by the Chicago clearing house. Two or three grievances will be presented from Districts 7 and 9 . "It has been my good fortune that | all of my children have received or are receiving, a portion of their education In the public schools of this district, In this city, and I feel that the advantage of them Is Incalculable. I certainly do not underrate the importance of the higher education,. It would be the greatest misfortune if we ever permitted such a warped and twisted view of democracy to obtain as would be implied In a denial of the advantage that comes to the whole naj tlon from the high education of the few who are able to take advantage of opportunity to obtain it. But while fully admitting this, It remains true that most Important of ail Is the education of the common school. The public schools are not merely the education centers for the mass of our people, but they are the factories of American citizenship. Incidentally to Its other work the public school does more than any other Institution of any kind, sort or description to Americanize the chlfd of foreign born parents who comes here when young, or is born here. Nothing else counts for as much In welding together Into one compact mass of citizenship the different race stocks which here are be,ing fused into a new nationality." The English warships in the river have landed * marines, who, together with volunteers from the foreign colonies, are guarding the streets and protecting property. The police station and a number of other buildings have been burned. The Delaware and Hudson miners of No. 5 colliery, Plymouth, have complained to the district office of the United Mine Workers that the decision of Umpire Charles P. Neill has not been carried out, but that the management has directed the local office of the company to coi\tinue payments for bottom bone in the same manner as they were doing at the time the complaint was presented to the conciliation board. Outhouse Vault. GAVE LIFE FOR A DOG r s. Charged with having murdered John Schlalkus, who was killed in Inkerman last Saturday night. Anthony Kernozlcky, aged 21 years, who boarded at the Schlalkus home, was committed to the county jail without ball this morning to await action by the grand jury. The commitment was made out by Alderman Barrett, before whom the warrant was sworn out, after a hearing held this morning In the city hall. Throughout the hearing, the prisoner stoutly maintained that he is innocent. Beyond this he would say nothing, in spite of a number of inquisitors who endeavored to secure a story from him. for clothing was carried on and the trousers and handkerchief were found. At this time the body of Schlalkus was still In the house. As soon as the articles were found and Identified the arrest was determined on, but the officers were given much worriment because Kernozlcky did not return. Finally Detective Jones and Chief Loftus started for this city to search for him, leaving Mr. Uffalussy on guard. About 5 o'clock Kernozlcky' returned and was placed under arrest on a warrant charging him with murder. He was taken to this city and placed in the jftll. Charles Barilla Burned to The American consul general, James L. ltodgers, at Shanghai telegraphed to the commander of the cruiser Baltimore, which was at Chingkiang, about 11 day from Shanghai up the Yangtse river, to proceed to Shanghai at once. The gunboat is with the Baltimore.Back of the new management stand the allied banks of Chicago, which have pledged their resources that every depositor shall be'paid to the last cent and that no customer of any one of the three institutions shall lose anything by reason of the suspension. This ilctton prevented a disastrous financial panic. Death Last Night. President Nichols says that he will take the matter up with Chairman Connell of the conciliation board at an early date. Fatal Fire Near Scene1 of the Confla- Presidents William Dettrey and John Fahy of Districts 7 and 9, United Mine Workers, and their stenographers, arrived In this city yesterday afternoon, and held a conference with District President Nichols. Just what the nature of the conference was, was not given out for publication, other than the fact that the officials were here to attend the argument in the Shea miners' certificate case, which will be argued on Thursday before Judges Edwards, Kelly and Newcomb. gration That Caused Death of Four Burke Children—Two .... Brothers Injured Willie Kscaplng From the Flames. City Undar Martial Law. Cause of the Collapse. The consul's latest message reports that Shanghai has been put under martial law and that all the foreigners are arming. The Immediate cause of the collapse of the Institutions controlled by Walsh Is said to be the large amount of money which tbey have lent to various private enterprises of his, notably the Routhem Indiana railway and the Bedford Quarries company of ludlana. Mr. Walsh says that if he could have had a little more time and been left untrammeled In his operations be could have saved his banks and made enormous profits for himself and his associates. At the hearing* this morning the prisoner would not answer some of the questions put to him and was very cautious about his replies. He said he did not commit the murder and knew nothing about it. His case will be given to the next grand jury. The attack on the foreigners grew out of a strike organized by the Boxer leaders and of a conflict of authority between the International mixed court and the muuitipal authorities of Shanghai.The authorities have what they consider a strong circumstantial case against Kernozicky. The strongest bit of evidence Is a pair of blood-stained trousers which the prisoner Is known to have worn last Saturday and which were found in the sump- of a closet by County Detective Jones and Special Officer Ed. Uffalessy yesterday afternoon. They also found a blood-stained handkerchief. The prisoner admitted that he wore the trousers on Saturday, but would offer no explanation of how they became stained with blood or how they got where they were found. Charles Barilla, a 12-year-old Lithuanian youth, was burned to death in a Are that destroyed the Barilla home, on Main street, 3ebastopol. It is believed that the boy's death was due to his efforts to save a pet dog from the flames, as he was at a point from which he might have escaped from the building when he turned back and met death. The evidence against Kernozlcky is not yet complete, but the authorities will make an endeavor to get the missing links as soon as possible. These are the chief facts they have at present: On Saturday last Kernozlcky was at his boarding place and had several whispered conversations with Schlalkus. He also asked him several times in the hearing of others, to go out with him. Towards evening Kernozicky left the house. Some time between 9 o'clock and 10—the murder Is supposed to have been committed about 9 o'clock—Kernozicky hurriedly entered his boarding' place and rushed to his room. He seemed excited and gave a small boy 50 cents to hurry for some whisky for him. Kernozlcky was quite composed when arrested last night, but this morning he seemed much excited. Looking ahead, it is this fact which causes anxiety here. State department ofllclals are certain the Chinese government will make prompt amends for the violence done to foreigners. 'Hie government is not responsible for the disorder. The natives have got beyond its control. This is the worst feature of the rioting, which, it Is feared, will spread to the interior provinces and then become general. SCHOOL PROGRAMME. Public exercises were held last night. Secretary Taft was present as m. reresentative of the general government and the Rev. Dr. Edward Ever. ett Hale, chaplain of the Senate, delivered the principal address. The liabilities of- the three institutions are estimated in the aggregate at $20,000,0(10. Against this amount the banks and the trust company have resources that are on a conservative estimate worth $16,000,000. The bonds of tlie Southern Indiana Railroad company are estimated by Mr. Walsh at $16,- 000,000. They are considered by the comptroller, the state auditor and the clearing house committee to be worth a little more than half that sum. Their value is a matter to be determined in the future, and the presidents of the local banks admit that if the estimate of Mr. Walsh is found to be correct the two banks and the trust comiwiuy will not only pay all of their debts, hut leave a surplus besides. The (ire broke out shortly after 9 o'clock. Mr. and Mrs. Barilla had left earlier in the evening to go to the corpse house of John Schlalkus, who was murdered Saturday night. They left at home three sons—Anthony Radzvin, son of Mrs. Barilla, and Michael and Charles Barilla, aged 15, 13 and 12 years, respectively. The three went to bed and were sound asleep, when Charles was aroused by the smell of smoke. He quickly aroused his brothers and the three rushed for a nearby window, which was about 12 feet from the ground. Anthony made an effort to open It, but could not, so he got a piece of furniture and smashed the frame and glass. He climbed quickly out and dropped to the ground. In landing he sprained one of his ankles. Michael next stepped to the window and followed his brother. The result of his drop was even worse than in the case of Anthony, for Michael dislocated one ankle and fractured the same leg a short distance above the ankle. Both boys looked up and saw their brother at the window, apparently ready to follow them. Suddenly, without the slightest hesitation, he stepped back from the window and disappeared.

Schlaikus Funeral Was Very Shanghai, Middle China, Dee. 10.- The riot has been suppressed by the police, marines from the British warships and foreigners who armed themselves. Twenty Chinese roughs were killed and a few foreigners were wounded, but no foreigner was killed. Largely Attended. The belief that Kernozlcky was Infatuated with Mrs. Schlalkus, who Is a young and pretty woman, was takiDn as a motive for the crime. The Idea of the authorities is that Kernozlcky, believing that he could win the woman for himself if Schlalkus was out of the way, planned to kill him and then did so. The funerals of the two Polanders who were murdered last Saturday night took place this morning. The funeral of Martin Alacks was from the home of his brother-in-law In Inkerman. The body was taken to St. Kazimir's church, where a mass of requiem was sung. The remains were interred in the Lithuanian cemetery. The murder of Schlalkus was a brutal one.' His body was found near the Inkerman Laurel Line station, with his head and body terribly lacerated. At first it was thought that he was shot but an examination showed that he had been beaten in a terrible manner with a hammer. The hammer has not been found. Assaulted and Robbed In Gotham. Private Property Turned Over. The director* of tlie two banks as well ns Mr. Walsh, who has turned over all his private property as well as that standing in the name of Mrs. Walsh, have pledged real estate and securities valued at $5,000,000, making tt total in assets of $20,000,000, estimating the railroad bonds at $8,000,000, against the $20,000,000 liabilities. New York, Deo. 19—With three ribs aud his collarbone broken, Charles Fass, fifty-four years old, a wealthy brewer, lies In his home unconscious from the effects of a holdup by three men at Eighth avenue and One Hundred and Thirteenth street, within a block of his home. Mr. Fass was robbed of $5,000 worth of valuables which were on his person. His condition is critical. During the investigation following the murder It was learned that Kernozlcky was still at the Schlalkus home. While he was temporarily absent. yesterday afternoon, the search The funeral of John Schl&lkus, who was murdered In Inkerman, was a very large one and the attendants included members of societies to which he belonged. Schlalkus was a much respected man among his fellowcountrymen. The Mass In St. Kazimlr's was by Rev. Mclhale Szedvldls and burial was made In the Lithuanian cemetery. I ANNIVERSARY CELEBRATION OFFICERS CHOSEN BY THE BARBERS For some time there has been n difference of opinion between the officers of the Chicago National bank and Comptroller Ridgley regarding the method of conducting the affairs of the bank. The comptroller took exception to the large loans made by the bank to private enterprises of Mr. Walsh and declared that a portion of them must be called in. Assurances were given, the comptroller declares, that this would be done, but the promises were not kept. Only one reason can be given for his act. It is the opinion of his brothers and others that he heard the whining of a small dog, a family pet, which had been left in a downstairs room, and turned back in an endeavor to save the animal's life. A few seconds after he had left, the place where he had stood broke into flames. Mrs. Mary A. Davis Wtas Visited by a Local Union Held an Election Last Bernhardt Acts For Charity.
