DYNAMITERS F0ILED.
A PLOT TO DESTROY BURLINGTON
ROAD PROPERTY.

Three of the ConspiratOrs Arrested, with
Dynamite Cartridges in Their Possession,
on the Day Fixed for the Preparation
of the Crime.
CHICAGO, July 6.-Thomas Broderick and
j. Bowles, members of the Brotherhood of
Locomotive Engineers, and another man
named Wilson, were arrested on a Chicago,
Burlington and Quincy train yesterday after
noon, brought to Chicago and lodged in the
county Jail under bonds of $4,000 each, charged
with conspiring to destroy the railroad COM
panys property. They had a considerable
quantity of dynamite in their possession when
arrested.
1t is stated that the Burlington company
has had a large force of detectives engaged
for long time in watching the movements of
the stlickers
The officials of the 20" assert that positive
information was received that yesterday was
the day choseQ for grand attack upon the
company's property. They say that, besides
definite plan to blow up trains upon the
tracks by means of dynamite cartridges, the
plot included the possibility of an attack upon
the depot property and magnificent Office
building here. They say that if the danger
had not been SO imminent they would have
allowed the conspirators to go and further
criminate themselves, but the plot had reached
a stage where it was necessary to take decisive
steps to prevent great destruction of property,
not to say loss of human lives.
CLEVELAND, July 11.-Chief Arthur of
the locomotive brotherhood, when informed
Of the arrest of Hoge and Murphy at Chi
cago, said he was sorry to hear of their ar
rest, but said that II any of the members
have been breaking the laws they must take
the consequences, for the brotherhood would
never approve of such action. He declined
to discuss the secret circular said to have
been issued by Chairman Hoge and the state
ment that should he himself be arrested
every wheel in the country would stop.
Inspector Bonfield stated that John j.
Kelly and John McGilvery, Hoge's clerks,
had been taken into custody and had made
full confession of all they knew regarding
the secret circular, alleged to have been issued
by the grievance committee, urging the use
of sal soda and emery for damaging the en-
gines of the Burlington company They iden-
tify "Sowers" with Hoge, and state that the
latter received the letters addressed to the
former name at the National hotel

Outraged, Thrown Into Pond and Held
Under Water Until Dead.
DANvILEE, Me-, July 9-The mysterious
death of Mary, the 20-year-old daughter of
Rev. DR.. Powell, whose body was found in a
mill pond here Wednesday, has not yet been
cleared up. It has been ascertained that on
the night the crime was committed man liv
ing near the pond heard womans screams,
and going to ascertain the cause, heard some
one run from the bushes The next day
Marys hand satchel was found by the side of
the pond and her body was subsequently re-
covered.
The coroner's jury has made an investiga-
tion. The deductions from the evidence are
that Mary was assaulted and outraged by an
unknown man, who, fearing he would be re-
cognized, threw her body in the water and
held her under until she was dead
Mary's father says be knows who killed
Mary, and he proposes to kill him. He is
armed and trouble is expected

JESUITS SUSPENDED.


Bishop Lafleche FOrbids Them from Per-
forming Clerical Functions.
O. OTTAWA, July 6.-Bishop Lafeche of Three
Rivers, Quebec, has signed an order suspending
the Jesuits from religious minstrations in his
diocese. The members of the order own sew
eral colleges there and direct several churches.
The order prevents them from performing
their sacerdotal functions in the diocese but
they can still hold property. The step, it is
stated, was undertaken after an investigation
which went to show that Catholics were in
fluenced on their deathbeds to change their
wills in favor Of the Jesuits. Thirty families,
it is stated, refused to attend mass because of
their experiences with the fathers.

that the bill to be proposed by the Republi-
cans in the senate as substitute for the Mills
bill, will make a greater net reduction of
revenues than the Mills bill, though it will be
framed on protective principles. Almost
every article on the chemical list will suffer
some reduction The duty on carpet woods
will probably be removed, and the objection
able classification as to worsted will be
remedied, but the woolen schedule as whole
is not likely to be greatly changed. The
committee is inclined to abolish all duties on
sugar. and substitute bounties therefor. AS
to the metal schedules no decision has yet
been reached. The internal revenue tax on
tobacco will be abandoned and that on spirits
reduced one half The total reduction of
revenue is estimated at nearly $100,O0O0O0.
