BOEnb-Ehe Case OF Linxc.

CHICAGO, May 1T.-Ofiicer Thomas Redden
died at the County hospital this morning at =
O'Clock, making the sixth death among the
police wounded in the Haymarket riot. Blood
poisoning was the immediate cause OF death.
Redden had his left leg fractured by the
dynamite bomb, received a bullet wound in his
left cheek and a wound in his right lie leaves
a wife and two children.
THE EVIDENCE AGAINST ANARCHIST LISGG.
No new developments have been divulged by
the police In the case OF the anarchist lncg, but
II is understood that they are bent on capturing
ms partner, Il man named Schneider. Whether
LinSg can be identired as.the omb-thrower or
not, the fact that some OF tie cyewilnesses OF
the episode are almost positive Oh his identity.
and the facts already known about his secret
movements since then, make out a strong cir
cuinStantfal case against him. IL is asserted
that the fact that he made the bomb which was
used can be proved beyond all doubt. The
police are i'll possession OF IL number of bonn bS,
some of them found at b3ggs old boarding
house and some found in a trunk belonging To
him which WAS secreted elsewhere. The make
and the material used in these all the same.
ALLEGED PLANS OF THE ANARCHISTS.

alter the Mccormick rio.s. There is now every
reason TO believe that these threats were not
idle ones, and that Ii was part OF we'll
organized plot that when the first bomb was
thrown on the night Of May Atm, the police
should be repeatedly fired upon and compelled
TO retreat, and that the mob should then pro-
coed 10 clean out every station-hous in the

0ver-Ofher labor NatterS

CHICAGO, May 1.-THE workmen in the
| yards in the lumber district have taken action
| to renew the strike. At meetings held yester-
day prominent members of the Labor Workers
Union addressed the crowds, urging the men
strongly to continue the strike. The support OF
| the stock yards and of the workmen in the
building trades was promised, as the late OF the
eight-hour movement, it was said, depended
| upon its adoption in the lumber yards. At least
5000 men attended the several meetings, and
united action WAS taken. 1t was resolved to
continue the strike. When the yards closed
Saturday il. was thought the strike was at an
end. Nearly half the men were at work again,
and it was thought that nearly all would go
back to-day.
A restless spirit prevailed in the southwest
lumber region this morning. At O'Clock I'D
and the intersecting streets were lined with a
great crowd OF men and boys. Several firms
started up with small gangs and no trouble oc-
CURED during the first working hours oi the
day. The Adams and West Lake Manufacture
ing company and the Union Brass Manufacture
ing company resumed operations this morning
About one-half OF the regular force, the super
intendents said, applied Tor work, and were
told to go TO their benches. A tour of the yards
revealed the TACT that not to exceed one-third
OF the men who were III work saturday, APP
peared at the yards this morning.
THE CLOTHING MAKERS LOCKOUT ENDED.
The talors and tailoresses employed by the
wholesale clothing houses, and i'm fact the
persons engaged in the making OF ready made

turned 10 work this morning the basis OF .

tail establishments have anticipated the de-

The Case of Nar(lellO.

THE CONDEMNED MANS STATEMENT TO BE
SENT TO THE DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE.
On Saturday afternoon Count Alberta de
Foresta, secretary of the Italian legation, and
ex-District Attorney CorKhill, held a consulua-
ton with District Attorney Worthington on the
case of Antonio Nardello, alias Frank Ross,
who is under sentence of death for the murder
of Carmine RoUunno july 29th last to be ex-
ecuted on the 2Sth inst. Nardello was brought
up from jail, and was present at the inter-
view with Interpreters, and stenographer
took his statement. 1t is stated that he re-
peated his first statement that the two Pas
qualls and himself were present when Rotunno
was killed; that he held the legs of Rotunno
while the deed was done and received $50 of
the money taken from the dead man. He also
furnished the names of some witnesses by
whom he claims he can show that he was not
the principal. The district attorney will incloSe
his recommendations to the Attorney General,
and he will probably recommend that the law
take its course.
The position in which the body of the muir
dered man was found serves to discredit Mar
dellOs statement. 1t was lying on the left side
with the hand under the head and the legs
slightly drawn, in just such a position as would
be taken in sleep. In fact there were no evil
denceS of struggle. 1t looked just as if the
rapid stroke OF u razor across the throat had
killed the sleeping man outright. The blood
on NardeliO'S pants is accounted for by the de-
body when taking the money from the pockets
of the dead man. The two men, Pasquale Ges-
simente and PaSQuale Albodonte, named by
NardellO as his companions, it was reported
lett before the trial for Italy, but it has been
ascertained that they went from here to Chi.
cagO, and that some months ago AlbOdante
died at or near Peoria, Ill.
NardellO was again brought no this afternoon

Manager Marean Declines to Furnish
Certain Teles rams-Nr. Van Benthuy
sen Demands to be Heard.

When the telephone investigating committee
met to-day Manager Marean, of the Western
Union Telegraph company, was placed upon
the stand and requested to produce certain tele-
grams sent and received by Mr.. Young and
other gentlemen connected with the Pan Elec-
trio and National companies. The witness
declined to comply with the demand for the
reason that the subpoena was in the nature of
drag-net or search warrant; that it did not
specifically describe any particular messages,
but sought to discover whether any messages
had been sent or received by certain parties.
MIR. VAN BENTHUYSEN CUT OFF.
The committee requested the witness TO pro-
duce the rules of his company and the instruc-
tions he had received from his superior officers
and during his temporary absence, Mr.. Van
BenthuySen rose and stated that he had
noticed that testimony had been given to show
that ne e. mad engaged IN tonspiracy He pro
given by individuals unworthy of belief, and
he was about TO name the persons he had REFER
ence to when he was cut off by Mr.. Moffats oh
lection. The witness returning at this juncture
Mr.. Van Benthuysen was requested TO defer
his statement, and the examination of MIR.
Marean was resumed.
The witness produced and read the rule of his
company forbdding the delivery of messages
except under certain conditions, and the COM
mittee discussed the question as to whether the
subpoena served on the witness fell within the
inhibition of the rule.
Finally it was resolved to consider the sub
ject in secret session, and the witness eX-
cused pending decision on the question as to
whether the committee should insist on its de-
mand for the kilograms.
MIR. VAN BENTHUYsEN AGAIN.
Mr.. Van Benthuysen was then requested to
state why he desired to be allowed to testify
further. He said he wanted to contradict the
testimony given by Messrs. Sypher HILL
Clarke, Crawford, Dana, Reed and Pulitzer and
to show that some of them were unworthy of
credence. He also wished TO show that the
Bell company had been engaged in a conspi-
racy. Mr.. Van Benthuysen held in his hand a
written statement bearing on these points
which he made Intellectual attempts to read.
Finally, the committee adjourned until to-
morrow without reaching a decision in the
matter.

The Pension Investigation.
LIKELY TO DRAG ALONG UNTIL THE CLOSE

LIKELY TO DRAG ALONG UNTIL THE CLOSE OF
THE SESSION.
The investigation of Pension Commissioner
Black, which has been going on for some time
bids fair to last until the end OF the session I'M
less the committee on public expenditures of
the Senate give more time to it. They have
been meeting once week from about ten
O'Clock to noon. OF the cases submitted by Gen.
Black as tending, in his opinion, to show that
political considerations swayed his predecessor,
Col Dudley, there are seven yet remaining to
be examined into. The inquiry so far has been
conducted chiefly by the republicans, and
when the seven remained cases shall have been
gone through with
THE DEMOCRATS WILL HAVE THEIR INNINGS.
They Will probably take up each case separate
ly and, as Gen. Black has repeatedly stated that
he had a good deal of testimony outside the re-
cord, the progress may be even slower than it
has been hitherto. The republicans have con-
fined the Commissioner to the record of each
missioner has said that his testimony includes
both o1al and documentary proof and hence it is
likely to require considerable time. II is under
stood that some of the officials and employees of
the Pension bureau who have been in its service
for years will be called upon to state whether or
lions to influence decision in pension cases.
MISSING DOCUMENTS
It is also understood that there will be some
cords that there were letters and written en-
dorsments going to show that cases had been
decided tor political effect, but that they disap-
peared. 1t is said that the employee who made
way with them will testify that he simply
Obeyed orders from u superior.

WHAT REV. DIR. CHApELLE SAYS,

The major portion Of the million dollars
to be collected for the cost and endowment OF
the Catholic university is in hand, and more is
still coming, but ground will not be broken fOrthe
erection of the building until next spring. The
new institution is to be university, and will
not interfere In any way with the existing col.
leges. At first instruction will be confined to
three branches OF learning-philosophy theol-
Ogy and phtiology, and afterwards include law
and medicine. DIR. Chapelie says that lone OF
the principal reasons that Washington was
chosen as the site OF the university was because
the students could here mix with the superior
minds of this and other cOuntries, and OF the
many valuable scientific collections, the
libraries and the courses Of scientific lectures,
etc., which are 20 be found here" A rector was
elected at the last meeting of the committee.
