NEW YORK, Nov. Some time ago the
Tribune published dispatch from File, t.
wood, Berks county, Pa, which charged a
wealthy and prominent physician of that
town named William B. Dswees with having
murdered his father by administering to him
fatal dose of medicine. The Tribune
correspondent wrote the story in sensation
al style, and said the body of tho deceased
was to be exhumed and an autopsy held.
After the publication of this dispatch the
body was disinterred and an autopsy held
which failed to reveal the slightest trace OF
poison or in any way to implicate the son in
his fathers death. Mr.. Devices there
upon engaged the services of William D.
Seltzer lawyer who has his Office in the
Morse building on Nassau street, this city,
and began suit for $50, 900 damages against

ternoon. The defendants have twenty days
IN which to make their answer before the
Supreme Court of New York. The article on
which the suit is based was published on
April 81 last. The plaintiff holds that by
means of the publication in his reputation his
good name and credit as a physician and in
his practice such he has sustained dam.
ages to the extent of $4,000.
Dr. Devices has also sued the Ege,ainyN eac,
and Chronicle Herald of Philadelphia fol-
1925, 600. The Tribune makes the tenth paper
sued for publishing dispatches containing the
charge that he poisoned his father. Most OF
them have compromised.

Warlike Preparations Making by Rus

Warltke Preparations Making by RUS
VIENNA, Nov. 1.-The insurgents again
becoming troublesome in Herzegovina Sew
eral isolated posts of gendarmerie and small
patrols of highways of the province have been
attacked. The Polish papers report that the
Russians have concentrated over 100, 900 men
near Kisheneff in Bessarabia 1t is further
stated that Russian army contractors have
been buying large quantities of wheat and
oats in Galatz and that the Russian authori-
ties on the frontier have received strict Or
ders to enforce the prohibition of the
portation of horses from the empire. This
news, viewed in connection with the dispute
respecting the mouths of the Danube, is
causing alarm in the southwest of En-
rope, but there is no reason to suppose that
it has any other foundation than the fears
widely entertained respecting Russia's inten-
tions in that quarter

Fatal End of q Family Quarrel

PARIS, Nov. Burt Scully, the well
known horse trainer, was shot and instantly
killed last evening by Hooker Stivers in this
city The parties lived on adjoining farms
and the women of the two families quarrelled
about some turkeys. Sherman Stivers, aged
seventeen years, brother of Hooker, shot
the turkeys which were claimed by Scully's
housekeeper. Yesterday Scully returned
from the Memphis races and hearing of the
case and meeting young Stivers in spring
wagon he took him out and boxed his ears.
When Hooker Stivers heard of this he placed
shotgun in his buggy and drove to town to
meet Scully. Upon seeing Scully he called
out to him, and Scully started toward him,
but when he got within few feet of Stivers
the latter deliberately shot him dead. Scully,
according to the testimony of his nephew,
was unarmed. Stivers was arrested.

The Prohibitory Amendment.
DAVENPORT, Nov. In the District Court
this morning Judge Hayes decided that the
recent prohibitory amendment had not been
legally made part of the State constitution
because the journals of the Legislature have
not printed the act in full, and because the
same act was not passed by both houses of
the Legislature. AS passed by the House the
amendment merely prohibited liquor as a
beverage as passed by the Senate it was in
terms prohibitory of the of liquor for all
purposes, even sacramental and medical.

New YORK, Nov 1.-The inquiry in the
case of Mrs. Seguin, wife of DIR. Seguin,
who committed suicide after numbering her
three children yesterday, held this after
noon at the residence, Al West Twentieth
street, before jury composed of physicians
DR.. Rufus o. Mason testified to being called
to the house just after the tragedy had been
discovered and finding all dead. Two SER
wants, Joannah Fitzgibbon and Dikla Klu-
gen, testified to having been sent out of the
house by the deceased on trifing errands just
before the tragedy. DIR. Amidon, brother of
the dect ased testified to finding the bodice
and giving it as his opinion that his sister
was insane After fifteen minutes consulta-
ton the jury rendered a verdict that Mrs.
Seguin killed herself and children while la
boring under mental alteration. DIR. Ssguin
was not called witness. He is still pros
trated by the shock and fears are entertained
for his reason. The funerals will take place
next Friday.
In the Supreme Court to. day the case of
Henry Cooper, fashionable tailor, who is
said to be insane, was sent to Referee Beale
to take testimony. One of the physicians
who two weeks ago certified to his insanity is
DIR. Seguin. 1t is remarked as a singular
coincidence that he should certify to Cooper s
insanity while unable to notice it in his own
| family.
