THE FIRST BLOODSHED.

All of Them Are Americans from Away Loudon Strikers Attack a Gang of Lascar* and are Fired Upon by the Police—One Man Wounded. She Introduced a Variety of Children Southampton at the Full Price lie- Back, but Two of Them May be Dis- to Induce Marriage—Mrs. Swlnton Con- maiided by the Strikers Is Rejected for mlssed*-Lathrop Did Not Answer the At midnight a large landslide occurred, bringing down with it the huts of the laborers who had built on its side, and covered many others and their inmates. The many laborers employed in the works commenced to hunt for the unfortunate creatures caught in the slide. They managed to take out several alive, but a woman, her daughter and an infant were not found until several days after. London, Sept. 4.—The hitbei to peaceful recojd of the J r sitt 1 ibor disturbance has been broken just the time when the of the men mc st Deeded to preserve a peaceable attitude ia order to win. Early this morning a gang of Lasc»rs were diacovered leading a number of vessels at the docks. Ttis so infuriated the onlookeis that, despite, the prot st of the mr re conservative rtrikera aud the open protest of their leaders, they made a lavage onslaught upon the offenoing laborers. The police it sUrnly rushed in. and, in ordar, it is believed, to frighten the strikers, fired off thC ir revolvers. One of the attacking party fell at the first discharge, and it was at onoe found that he had been fatally wounded. The men instantly dis'sted, but they *re in a very dangerous mood, and grave feara are entartDined that before nightfall more blood a ill be spilled. fesses Her Part In the Deception. Reasons Satisfactory to Burns. Chinamen of San Francisco had a big parade in honor of the god of charity. Clan-na-Gael Question Satisfactorily, New York, Sept. 4.—'Another chapter in the Hamilton-Donnelly tragic scandal at Atlantic City has been laid bare by the aid of Chief Inspector Byrnes. While Mrs. Hamilton, alias Evangeline Steele, etc., is languishing in her comfortably furnished c#l at May's Landing her co-conspirators, •Mother" P. J. Swinton and "Dotty" Joshua Mann, are pining behind the iron bare of separate cells at police headquarters in this city. They wore both arrested Monday at No. 385 West Twenty-ninth street. Mrs. Swinton said that during the illness of the first child she told the doctor to try and save its life, as a fortune of $100,000 for the mother depended on it. She also said that Eva afterward asked Hamilton to take and caress the babe to make him think he was the father. All that time and for four years prior, as well as after Eva's marriage to Hamilton, Mrs. Swinton said she believed Eva was married to her son Joshua. London, Sept. 4.—John Burns, the leader of the London strikers, has made himself as completely the master of the lives and fortunes of the men as any eastern despot over his subjects. For some days past the most unruly of his hungry followers were disposed to rebel against his pronounced purpose to preserve order at all hazards, and these, growing more numerous as food became scarcer, were a constant menace to his authority. This source of danger is now largely reduced, for Burns has succeeded in procuring sufficient funds to supply his relief depots fairly well, and as he keeps a sharp lookout on the purse strings and peremptorily forbids any relief being given to such as question his authority he is now everywhere implicitly A. S. Perry, who lived near Jacksonville, Fla.,. took a dose of strychnine in whisky and died. He also gave the poison to two of his children, one of whom, a boy of 9, will die. Chicago, Sept. 4.—The only progress made yesterday in selecting a jury to try the five men now on trial for the murder of Dr. Cronin was the loss of eleven more peremptory challenges, and the admission of a revised list of stereotyped questions to be asked of talesmen by the defense. Of the eleven peremptory challenges the defense used up nine, making thirteen for them al together, with eighty-seven more at their disposal. The state found it expedient to peremptorily challenge two jurors. Twentyseven jurors were excused for cause. When court adjourned the state was about to tender four promising looking jurors to the defense. Two of then had already been passed by the attorneys fcr the prisoners. One, and perhaps two, of this quartet, may be accepted by both sides. Warrants have been issued at Jackson, Miss., for a number of eastern men connected with the Sullivau-Kilrain fight. At 9 o'clock the same night another slide, fifty times as largo as the first, rushed down over the settlement, breaking down walls, filling doorways, covering gardens, crushing huts aud depositing immense rocks which the men cannot move. This fresh slide caused great terror to the miners and workers in the mills, who sought safety in flight. Nearly all of the huts, hundreds in number, were swept down into the valley and piled up one above the other. Houses at the base of the mountain were crushed, walls swept away and the devastation was gonerally most complete. For three or four days afterward searching was carried on in the slide and five bodies wore taken out. It ia believed that many others were buried in the ruins. At McCullough Crossing, Ind., some ono threw a stone at a passing train. John Noon, the engineer, had his hand smashed and several ribs broken. • In Murch, 188!), Eva gave Joshua $2,000, which had been drawn out of the Union Dimo Savings bank, and next day he deposited it there in his own name. April 15 following Joshua.irew out the money, and Eva, hearing of it, became angry, went to the bank, and declared tho money must be paid to her, as Joshua Mann, her husband, was demented and had run away. Hdw She Provided for "Josh." Adam Price (colored) was killed and three others injured by a railroad collision near Martinsville, Va. It has been claimed that prior to the alleged marriage of Hamilton to the woman the latter had become a mother in Elmira. The child was said to have been born Dec. IT, 1888. About that time Eva lived at Elmira, both at a hotel and a boarding house, with Mann as husband and wife. That the woman was sick there at various times is attested by Dr. Burnett Marsh, a physician of twenty-nine years' standing in the place, but he positively denies that sho was ever the mother of a child. At Warsaw, N. Y., Joseph Myers, an Erie conductor, was caught between cars and killed. obeyed. During August 2,810,999 pounds of leaf tobacco were sold at Danville, Va. A foiling of disgust is spreading among leading shippers at the obs;!nacy of tbe docking companies in holding out for bo small a difference. Many of these shippers will have heavy billa of damages to settle over tbe failure to make deliveries of goods as contracted. Tb's naturally strengthens tbe strikers. In feet, had it not been for the unfortunate shooting affray cf this morning, there are many who acsert that the compaDiea would have been compelled by the pressure brought to bear on them by their patrons to have yielded inside cf a few hours. The shooting affair has, however, temporarely upset all calculations. Until it has blown over, there is no p rospect of a decision bung reached one way or the other. Just before going to Elmira, Eva gave Joshua $500. Eva had repeatedly told Mrs. Swinton, after Hamilton had married her, how she had imposed on him, and that the child fraud was resorted to becauso by will all the family jewels and heirlooms, worth many thousands, belonging to Hamilton's mother, would go the benefit of his wife, and when she got the jewels she would have plenty of money and would make things hum. For the past two or three years Joshua and Eva have been living at various places as man and wife, and during that time she has given him over $3,000. 11 u I'll H Rejects the Proposal, The most promising one of the four is a clean-cut business man, Freeman Grass, a manufacturer of war panoramas. The other juror who may be accopted is T. P. Kellogg, tall, rugged farmer from Arlington Heights, who wears a flannel shirt and the emblems of three great secret societies. The othec two who were locked up for the night with Grass rfind Kellogg were B. J. Vancott and William P. Turner. It is possible, however, that these two men will be set free. After tho proposal of the shippers and vessel owners to engage their own help had been rejected by the dock managers the former applied to the strikers' committee to permit the men to load and unload at Southampton such vessels as could be sent there from London, offering to carry the men out and back and to pay them the sixpence per hour which they demand. John Daly is in jail at Springfield, Mass., for the killing of Constable Abbott. Mrs. Parnell is in very feeble health at Bordentown, N. J. Floods in the states of Hidalgo and Vera Cruz are causing much damage. The prices of food are rising all over owing to the heavy rains. Washouts have delayed travel on tho Mexican Central railroad. It is raining heavily all over the country. Serious floods also prevail in Tarapico and in the surrounding districts. The water is higher than during the floods last year. Many families up the river have taken refuge on the high ground, their houses being flooded. Telegraphic communication is generally interrupted.Yarmouth and Sandwich, Mass., are celebrating their 250th anniversaries. All these facts and others were learned there and telegraphed to New York by Detective McNaught, of Byrne's staff, and tho latter lost no time in apprising Mr. Hamilton of what had been gleaned. Mr. Hamilton came on from Atlantic City Friday night last and put up at the residence of Charles A. Peabody, No. 15 Park avenue. When he had heard all the facts Hamilton said: "Tho woman is my wife and as such I shall protect her, but if conspiracy was resorted to and a spurious child palmed off on me, then 1 am as anxious as any one to hunt down tho conspirators and have justice meted out to them." Mr. Hamilton Learn* the Secret. The Scripps League of American Workmen were entertained by Minnie Palmer, the actress, at Glasgow, Scotland. This proposition was rejected. He says that if once the pressure upon commerce which tho strike has brought about at so great a sacrifice is relieved without securing the concessions which the men demand, then it is good-by to all hopes for the success of tho strike. He will not only prevent tho London laborers from going to Southampton, but if the shippers should attempt to send vessels to that point to be loaded and discharged by men there he will follow the ships and organize a strike in Southampton,Malignant typhoid fever is reported at Connersville and Dundee, Ind. Kai Kura, a wealthy Japanese of New York, reported to the police that his daughter had oeen abducted by three of his countrymen.All Are Americans, Mann said briefly that he first met Eva several years ago in a house of ill repute on Thirty-first street and from there they went to a flat, where they lived a cat-and-dog life, He knew right along of the deception that had been practiced upon Hamilton. All four are Americans from away back, and have never formed an opinion as to the guilt or innocence of the acoused. The crowd in the court room in the morning was larger than at any'time since the trial began. Many women" were admitted inside the railing. The prisoners paid little attention to the legal sparring over the admission of the six questions which the court picked out of the eleven submitted by the defense. The six questions which the court ruled as admissible are these: There will be a reunion of old time Abolitionists at Boston, Sept. 23. Brown Is Not In Boston. DEMOCRATIC STATE CONVENTION.: Harvey aged 22, was found dead near Franklin Furnace, Pa. He had fallen from a tree while out hunting. Boston, Sept. 4.—Ex-Judge John Lowell, the acting counsel of Mrs. Gideon P. Brown, and who will ropresent her husband's interests in the settlement of the liabilities of the defunct firm of Brown, Steese & Clark, was seen at his office relative to the alleged presence in Boston of tho missing wool merchant. Mr. Lowell said: "I cannot say that I know positively Mr. Brown's present whereabouts, but I do know that ho is not in Boston and has not been seen since his departure from this city, Aug 0. I am satisfied that today Mr. Brown is neither in the state of Massachusetts nor the United States, and I am pretty certain that he will not return until a more complete understanding of the case is reached than at present exists." Information said to be reliable locates Mr. Brown in Montreal. A Cut and Dried Meeting at Harrlsburgr The prisoners were arraigned at the Tombs police court yesterday and were remanded. This Forenoon. The town of Barker, Mon., was destroyed by forest fires. Nine persons perished in the flames, H arrisburu, Pa., Sept. 4.—The Democratic State Convention to non inalc a candid te for State Treasurer assembled in lie opera house here this mc rning. Tbe gathering was without noteworthy feature Few of the prominent parly leaders were presett, ind the aciioa taken was mere ratificatory of tbe slate previously made out. Representative Samuel M Wherry, of Cumberland county, was made Temporary and Ex-Senator John Feriig, of Crawford county, Permanent Chairman. The same night, and, in fact, the same train that brought Mr. Hamilton to this city also brought "Mother" Swinton and her son Joshua, who registered at the St. Charles hotel, at Broadway and Bleecker street, as "Mr. and Mrs. J. W. Brown," and occupied the same room. Detectives Hickey and Crowley went to arrest the pair at the St. Charles Sunday night, but they had gone during the afternoon. At noon Monday she came back, remained at the house a few minutes and left, being followed by tho detectives. She went direct to No. 835 West Twenty-ninth street, where both she and Mann were stopping, and she was then arrested and taken to police headquartei-s. Eva Is Left Alone. The Strikers' Position Improved. Atlantic City, N. J., Sept. 4.—Robert Ray Hamilton has apparently abandoned his alleged wife. He has had no communication with her since Wednesday last, and she has concluded that she has been left to her fate. The authority for this is Mrs. Rupp, who visited the jail at 3 o'clock, carrying with her Mrs. Hamilton's babe. Little Beatrice was drtssed extravagantly. Indeed, her appearance attracted very general attention from every person in the train. On each of her tiny arms was clasped a bracelet of Etruscan gold. In the center of each golden band blazed a soltaire diamond. On the middle finger of the right hand the baby wore a gold ring which was attached to the bracelet by a finely wrought gold chain of delicate workmanship. Her baby robe was of the finest white silk. Tho refusal of the dock companies to permit the vessel owners to make such terms with the laborers as they see fit for unloading their own ships, very materially improves the strikers' position, as it places the entire responsibility for the existing trade deadlock U|Don the shoulders of the dock managers. This intensifies the feeling in the commercial community against them, and as a result sympathy for the strikers grows stronger aud contributions flow unceasingly into their coffers. The Norwalk (Conn.) Baseball club has disbanded. "Have you opinion as to whethor or not the allied murder of Dr. Cronin was in pursuance of the action or finding of a secret committee, or its officers or any of them, to try said Cronin for any supposed offense? Tile Admissible Qnestloiis, J. W. Judd, one of the judgos of the district court of Utalphas sent his resignation to President Harrison. Tlie HarWortl Bicycle Races. Hartford, Sept. 4.—About 2,000 people attended the bicycle races yesterday. Hendee lowered the one mile safety record from 2:40 to 2:41 The Barker brothers broke the tandem record of 2:39 for one mile, their time being 2:87. G M. Hendee, of Newton, Mass., won the one mile handicap in 2:41 Another handicap race, distance one mile, was won by G. M. Worden, of the Manhattan Athletic club, nir was given 200 yards start. Time, 2:84%. Th# one mile state L. A. W. championship safety was won by W. Harding, of Hartford, in 2:59 4-5. E. Daubby, of Westminster, won the Hartford Wheel club handicap, distance one mile, in 2:4s1./. The five mile race was won by F. F. Ives, of Meriden. Backus and Pickett won the one mile tandem safety handicap. The three mile L. A. W. championship was again declared off, the contestants failing to cover the distance within the limit of 9:15. ~'Hnve you formed any opinion as to whethor or not Dr. Cronin was killed in the Carlson cottage? The platform re-affirms tbe ttriff plank adopted in 1888; endorses Cleveland; denounces trusts and combination* to advance tbe price rt necessaries (f life; accepts the V(t) on constitutional prohibition as a declaration in favor of reasonable ns rictlon of tbe 1 quor traffic, favors a liberal bestowal of pensions on wounded soldiers and denounces the pensiar i g of any others. "Have you formed an opinion as to whether the tenant or tenants of the Carlson cottage had anything to do with said murder? The beliof is gaining ground that the groat strike will be settled no later than Thursday, when the directors of the dock companies are expected to concede the strikers' demands. Charles Morgan Norwood, the chairman of the directors, late last evening sent a telegram to the strikers' committee requesting an appointment for a conference. This action is believed to foreshadow an agreement between the companies and the "Have you formed an opinion as to whether Dr. Cronin was taken to the Carlson cottage by the horse and buggy engaged by Daniel Coughlan from Dhian, the liveryman? Didn't Need the MiK ry Mrs. Swlaton Confesses. Jackson, Miss.. Sept. 4.—The O- iital City Guards have returned from Leflore jounty. They say that the whites who flocked into Minter City at the report of trouble from th& negroes had dispersed tho armed blacks before the guards arrived there. Reports as to the killing of negroes wore conflicting. Some jxthous claimed to have seen a number of dead bodies, while others only knew of one negro having been killed, and that accidentally. Forty negroes were captured by tbe guards and turned vover to the sheriff. The guards then left. The sheriff said he did not need them further, They heard reports after leaving that one of the negro leaders had been hanged. Joshua did not make his appearance until 5 o'clock in the evening. He was beastly drunk and was at once taken into custody by Detective Hickey. Through the usual methods adopted by the Inspector he succeeded in unsealing the lips of his prisoners, and thus from Mrs. Swinton's own confession, drawn out, of course, by strategy on the part of the shrewd inspector, the story of treachery is unfolded. At tbis writing it looks as though Ex-Collector B'gler, of Cleat field couLty, would meet with comparatively no opposition. "Have you formed an opinion as to whether or not Martin Burke, one of the defendants, was the tenant of the Carlson cottage? HE PLUNGED *ND LOST. Musjjruve & Co. Fail lor 81300,000 aiul strikers.

The non-conformists will unite to defeat it, should the bill ever come before the House. New York, Sept. 4.—The members of the Stock Exchange were surprised yesterday afternoon at hearing that the old and well known house of Musgrave & Co. had failed. T. B. Musgrave, the head of the house, has been a member of the exchange sinco 1889. Away back when Henry Keep was one of the leaders of the street and startled the community with his bold operations in Northwest T. B. Musgrave was on deck and a prominent figure in Wall street circles. Indeed, he was one of the principal operators for Mr. Koep and carried large blocks of stock for him in his transactions. Berne, Sept. 4.—The representations to the Swiss authorities made by Mr. Washburn, the American minister, regarding the recent arrest and detention of two Americans by Swiss olliciats on a charge for which there whs uo foundation, have been met in a most mauly fashion. The Bundesrath announces its regret at the illegal arrests and adds that measures will be taken to effectually prevent the repetition of such an occurrence. I.atlu-op Has an Opinion, "Nov. 10, 1888," said "Mother" Swinton, "Eva came to me and said: 'I am going to Elmira and shall return Dee. 15. In the meantime I want you to get me a child's costume. Joshua and myself will be back about that time." The state offered no objection to these questions. State's Attorney Longenecker was disposed to be conservative in order to ex-ape errors. This set of questions was probably responsible for the overthrow of young Lathrop, who made such a favorable impression for two days. When "the questions of conspiracy and the culpability of tho Otnn-ua-Gael were fired at the keen looking juror, he answered that he had formed an opinion 011 these points in the case. Half an hour later he, together with Lillibridge, who had also withstood the Are for two days, was peremptorily challenged for the defense. The Nagle Case. San Francisco, Sept. 4.—The habeas corpus proceedings in the case of Deputy Marshal Nagle were begun yesterday. Testimony was taken showing that Terry had threatened to kill Justice Field. It was also testified that Mr, and Mrs. Terry were violent persons, and had threatened harm to Judge Sawyer as well as to Judge Field, and that Terry had toldMnrshal Frank that he would get even with Field for deciding against Eim, The facts of an assault upon Judgo Sawyer in a railroad car a year ago by Mrs. Terry were also given. The woman pulled the judge's hair, while Tgrry sat opposite, ready to take action if Sawyer should resent the insult. It was shown that Terry had boasted of always carrying a knife. A reporter testified that Mrs. Terry once told him she would probably kill Judge Field some day.  "What do you want it tori" asked Mrs. Swinton. North Adams, Mass., Sept. 4.—All the shoe factories in town are closed except H. T. Cady's, and 1,500 men aro out of work. Tho settlement of the wage question does not seem near. Fifteen Hundred Out of Work. "Oh, there is a friend of Ray's" meaning Mr. Hamilton—"who has just got a lady into troublo, and when the child is born I want to take it on Ray's account and place it away until such time as I can use it." Threatened with Inundation. The "Pensy" Gets » Hot Bo*. Vienna, Sept. 4.—The city of Szegedin, which suffered so greatly by the disastrous flood of 1870, is threatened with another inundation. It is reported that the protective quays built immediately after the flood ot that year, when the town was destroyed, are now crumbling. Floods are reported from all portions of the mountain districts about Szegedin and many lives have been loBt. Harru-duro, P».. Se|t., 4—The limited vesiibulo patsonger train on the Pennsylvania road, running between this place and Philadelphia, caught flra ltDti last night. The the trouble arose from the wearing off i f the rubber casing in the journals, bt the friction of which with the steel axle flame* were ignited. No serious damage was done. The last really big deal that he went into proved to be an unfortunate one. That was the Northern Pacific deal, engineered by Henry Villard, all of the movers in which came to grief in 1883-4 in one of the worst crashes Wall street has ever witnessed. From the time of that collapse until his failure Mr. Musgrave has not figured so extensively in financial circles as of yore. Weavers Accept a Iteductiou. Eva came back Dec, 25, Christmas day, and went to Mrs. Swinton's home at Fourth avenue and Thirty-fourth street, coming to the houBc at 9 o'clock in the morning. Only Three Postage Stamps Left. Wilmington, Del., Sept. 4.—The strike here of 150 weavers lias ended, the men ac cepting the 10 per cent, reduction. Work was resumed this morning, j Creston, la., Sept. 4.—The private bank of L. S. Erojks at Lennox has been closed by tho sheriff, owing it#depositors from 125,000 to $30,000, For some weeks the rumors of its unsound condition have been current, but the proprietor and his cashier have constantly denied these reports, and, it is stated, received $13,000 late Saturday afternoon, since which time tho doors have not been opened. Writs of attachment were sued out by RidgeD way & Worth, creditors of the bank, and when the sheriff went to make an inventory he found just three two-cent stamps in the vault. The town is excited oyer the event, as many of the depositors are poor people or tradesmen who cannot lose their deposits and continue their business. "Have you got those baby clothes?" was her first question. Hay Fever and Boae CoUl, "Yes, everything except a cloak and cap," replied Mrs. Swinton. Nothing doflnite about the failuro could be learned at the office. Mr. Musgrave could not be seen, but the head clerk said that there was nothing to give to the public and that it would be impossible to tell how they stood until after the books had been straightened out. Concerning the liabilities, this gentleman would not express any opinion, but the street had the amount all the way from $100,- 000 to about 8500,000, the generally accepted figure being about $300,000.

"Well, let's go and get them," and together they went to the Bowery, only stores on that thoroughfare being open on that day. They finally bought the cap in a second hand store, and Eva said, "You go back home and I'll go get the baby." Dublin, Sept. 4.—The Galway prison officials, where Mr. William O'Brien is oonfined, have telegraphed to the prison board that their prisoner is critically ill. Mr. O'Brien, on arriving at the Galway jail, requested the attendance of his own physician. This was refused and the prison doc tor was given charge of his case. Rochester, N.

The same day Mrs. Swinton secured board at No, 105 East Twenty-eighth street for "Mr. and Mrs. Mann and child," and in the evening Eva, Joshua and the baby came and stayed one week as "Mr. and Mrs. Mann." Says Parnell \V ill Not Support It. Eupepsy. Within the past throe or four months Mr. Musgrave has been plunging and the older and more substantial privilege brokers, such as Russell Sago, S. V. White, Harvey Kennedy, and even W. S. Williams, suffered se» verely by reason of tljis lively and unexpected competition. Musgrave's brokers sold the privileges at such figures that the older men in the business could not attempt to compete. All told, privileges representing about 65,000 shares are out with Musgrave's name on them. London, Sept. 4.—The Freeman's Journal, which claims to have thoroughly informed itself as to the position of the Irish party on the proposed Catholic university scheme, predicts that when that measure is actually brought into the house at the next session Pamell will not bo found among its support- Plundered by llobbers, This is what you ought to have, in fac, you must have it, to fully enjoy life.

Y,, Sept. 4.—News has been received that on Friday, while Mrs. Ralph Branduth and her children were passing over the "carry," en route from Raquett lake to their summer home in Hamilton county, the party encountered robbers, who went through the trunks and destroyed what they did not want to use. Diamonds, jewelry aud other articles amounting to $2,000 were stolen. The jewelry had been unintentionally left in a trunk. The thieves escaped. Then a fiat was rented and furnished at No. 208 East Fourteenth street, and the trio went ther-j to live. A week later the baby was taken sick, and, though Dr. Kemp, of No. 267 West Twenty-third street, was called, it died a few days later. This child was named "Alice Maun" and was 14 days old, and died from the want of mother's milk. The death certificate gave the parents' names as Qcorge and Alice Mann. Jewish Schoolmasters Inhibited.
