BURNING OF THs NEW YORK HOS
PlTAL FOR CHILDREN.

Little May Wilson,, an Eleven-Year OIS
Patient, Confesses to the Incendiary
Act, but Is Unable to Explain Why 1t
Was Done.
NEW YORK, Feb. 3.-The incendiary
| who set fire to the hospital for ruptured
and crippled children, last Sunday night,
has been discovered in the person of an
eleven-year-old girl, named May Wilson.
She had been in the hospital nearly three
years, suffering from wry-neck, and was
about to be SEN to her home as cured
day afternoon DR.. Gibbs found a box of
matches on the register in his room, and
the next day another o was found in
exactly the same place. In both cases
the cover of a table near by was arranged
30 that If one of the fuses was ignited
the room would be in a blaze in a few
minutes. Mays queer actions aroused
suspicion, and, after close questioning,
she confessed. She does not know why
she did 1t. May will be brought to the
district attorneys office, but it is doubt
full II q charge of arson can be made
against so young a child.
In addition to the attempts to set fire
to the building, as above described, there
were two attempts Thursday, one just
before the girl was induced to confess,
and one while she was being questioned.
She admitted causing them. In both
these cases the woodwork was actually
ignited. The first caused almost a repe-
tition of the Sunday panic, and a still
alarm was sent out bringing the flremen
to the scene. The building was filled
with smoke, but only 500 damage was
dona.

Master Workman Butterworth, of the

beers generally of the shoe organization
of this city blame equally the executive
committee of the district assembly and
the manufacturers, for the present un-
fortunate situation. The district execu-
tive committee saw fit to sign the agree
ment presented by the manufacturers
without consulting the rank and file of
shoemakers. No adjustment of the pres
emit difficulty will be brought about in
the same manner, thar is certain. We
want no further rules that have been
gotten up by the moguls of either side,

tion of wages involved; it is simply as to
whether the assembly can at will break
break its promises to us, and still pre-
sumo to hold us strictly to account for
any alleged similar breach of faith"

LONDON, Feb. 3.--The attempt made to
swindfe the Bank Of England by means
OF forged bonds of the Hamilton & North

a complicated case. 1t appears that one
of the swindlers some time ago purchased
one of the bonds Of the road for q price
above its real value, and 1t is supposed
that this single bondwas obtained for the
purpose Of forging others. When the POI
lice yesterday arrested FIVE of the gang,

CONWAY, Ark, Feb. Sin the trial in
the circuit court of DR.. John Driver, as
accessory to the murder of Squire j.
C. Flake, the prosecution secured a con-
tinuance. About fifty witnesses were
present. The case will be tried at the
autumn term OF court.
In 1886 DR.. Driver attended the wife of
Squire Flake through an illness that
proved fatal. Subsequently Flake de-
nounced DR.. Driver as an incapable ply
stefan, whose ignorance had caused his
wife's death. DR.. Driver sought Flake
and beat him. Feb. Is, 1886, while DR..
Driver was out hunting with John
George, they met Flake, and the old
enemies opened fire on each other. AT
the first fire Driver received a slight
wound, but missed Flake, who quickly
covered the doctor with his gun and was
about to fire, when George shot him dead.
The two men fled to Texas, but were fol-
lowed. Driver was captured while riding
alone, and George, who had been sleeping
in his tent, showed fight when he found
himself surrounded, and was killed by a
volley from the officers.
