ASSAULTED BY A MOB.
There are some strikers manfully bat
Ting against lawless tendencies of their
comrades. One such came to the surface

two blocks away. His face
was cut, his hat was lost,
and his clothing was torn so as to disclose
the fact that in his restitution he had
wrapped his body in newspapers to serve
the purpose of shirt, which he clearly
could not afford. An officer rescued the
victim from the mob and was assisted by
a brawny bearded driver, who was him
self a striker
About o'clock this afternoon mob of
men gathered at Ninety-fifth street and
Second avenue and after long discussion
started to Third avenue under the leader

one of the Third avenue "scab" cars came
along the order was given, ''go

Sergeant Cotrell singled out Maher as the
leader of the mob and placed him under
arrest at the point Of revolver. The mob
made several Intellectual attempts
to rescue their leaders. Meanwhile
two patrol wagons filled with police

scene and secured peace by the use Of the

Car No. 107 of the Fourth avenue line on
its way up town at Seventy-second street
was attacked by crowd or about fifty
strikers who had been hid behind brick

though two passengers who were aboard
were uninjured. The two policemen who
were with the car drew their clubs and re-

TEE VICTIM OF APOPLEXY.
Crown Prince Rudolph Dies Suddenly at
Vienna.

VIENNA, Jan. 30.-Crown Prince Ru-
dolph died at Mierling, near Baden, today
| of apoplexy.
The crown prince on Monday went on a
| shooting excursion to Meyerling, accom-
| panied by several guests, including Philip
| of Coburg and Count Hovos. He felt
somewhat indisposed yesterday and
| therefore excused himself from at
tending the family party at Hofburg.
When the shooting guests assembled
| this morning, the crown prince did not
appear. Immediate inquiries were made
| and the guests were overcome by the ter
rible news that the crown prince was dead
from a stroke of apoplexy. The shock of
the calamity struck the Hofburg like
tightening at Gas a. m. the official an
nouncement that apopleXy was the cause
of death modified the alarm of the police
arising from rumors that the prince had
been killed while shooting. Large crowds
traYersed the main streets and assem- bled
in groups discussing the event.
The bourse first learned the news
through the bourse commissary general,
Carstern. A paralysis of business ensued.
Members rushed to the streets and be-
sieged the telegraph Offices. The bourse
was Immediately closed and the committee
decided to keep it closed until Friday. The
reichsrath also adjourned amid great ex-
citement The court theaters and all the
private theaters and places of amusement
give no performance tonight.
BERLIN, Jan. 30.-Emperor William was
agitated by the news of the death of the
Austrian crown prince. He drove to the
residence of Count Szecheney, the Aus
TRAN ambassador, and remained there
half an hour.
BRUSSELS, Jan. 30-The queen wept on
hearing the news OF the death of Crown
Prince Rudolph, and sent telegram of
coincidence to her daughter. The court
festivities have been postponed.
VIENNA, Jan. 30.-The crown prince has
suffered during the last few years of his
life from rheumatism of his joints. Yes
terday evening he had a severe sniyering
fit. The Vienna papers do not refer to SEN
sational reports regarding the cause of the
crown princes death: One rumor was
that he had been accidentally shot, while
another has it that he had been murdered
by peasant. The body will be brought
to Vienna at midnight.
Many persons here still refuse to believe
that death resulted from apopleXy All
kinds of rumors of shooting by accident
or desi On are current.
The crown prince always slept with his
bed room door ajar, but on the morning of
his death the door was found locked.
This fact is the subject of much comment.
Arch Duke Charles Louis, the emperor's
brother, is now heir presumptive to the
throne He has three sons, Francis, Ohio
and Ferdinand.
1t is stated that official private tele-
grams from Vienna affirm that the death
of the crown prince was due to a wound
inflicted with a rifle.

MRS. RAWSON.ACQUITTED.


CHICAGO, jan 30-Mrs Rawson. wife OF
shot his lawyer nearly to death. was &C
Quilted in short order this afternoon.
Mrs Rawson's motive for attempting
the killing was the activity of Whitney

Only two ballots were taken. the jury
finding in favor of the defendant on the
ground that she had been rendered tempo
rarily insane at the time the deed was
committed. Only one juror voted
against Mrs. Rawson on the
first ballot, and he readily succumbed
to the arguments of the others Few spec
tators were present when the verdict was
rendered, though the crowd during the
day was the largest ever assembled in the
criminal court, except during the anarch-
ist trial. Nearly everybody expected much
less promptitude on the part of the jurors
Mrs Rawson was at once formally dis
charged, and after kissing her daughter
Little Dot" she received the congratula-
ton of her sister, Mrs. Dawson, of St.
Louis, and half dozen ladies from the
Women's Protective association.
When the jurors were thanked, and each
treated to warm shake of the hand, all
this had taken scarcely a minute and
everybody seemed happy when suddenly
Mrs. Rawson's eye lit on States Attorney
Elliott. All her fire was up in minute.
How much did Rawson pay you," she
Kissed at the man who had prosecuted her
so holly. The states attorney laughed and
said nothing"
"pll find out about this" said Mrs.
Rawson fercely, you've treated me
shamefully during this trial and I'll hold
you responsible" Friends led Mrs.
Rawson away.

AN EXCITING WOLF HUNT.

NORTONvILLE. Kan, Jan. 30.-The wolf
drive which occurred here today was one
of the most exciting and successful ever
known in this section. The day was
bright and beautiful and the air just
bracipg enough to make walking COM
Portable Business men and others took
advantage of the occasion for a days recre-
alton and sport, and it is estimated that
from 500 to 1000 persons partici-
pated in the. drive. In the terri
tory covered, whcha was fourteen miles
square, the bowling coyotes were very
plentiful, but their numbers are consider
ably diminished as a result of today's
hunt. The march for the roundup was
begun at 10 O'Clock, and several of the
pestiferous little animals met death while
attempting to break the lines before the
Enclosure was reached When the men
came in sight of the field where the final
battle was to be fought, half
dozen wolves could be seen scamper-
ing back and forth over the prairie,
looking for the most available place to
break through the lines, and in the excite
ment the ranks became demoraIized and
all but one succeeded in slipping through.
Four of them were recaptured, however,
after An exciting chase by the hounds.
The ranks having been closed up, the re-
naming one was forced into a small in
closure and dog pitted against him.
The wolf carried several buckshot in
his body and labored at a great disadvan-
tage, but he fought bravely to the last,
and only gave up when compelled to do SO
from sheer exhaustion. Everybody is en-
thusiaStic over the success of today's drive,
and arrangements are being made for an
other next Tuesday, which will be on a
larger scale than any heretofore under

GENUINE MAIDSTONE,

SAN ANTONIO, Tex, Jan. 30.-Mr. NJ. G..
Lee, of Kerrville, sixty miles north of
here, is the proud possessor of genuine
maidstone, which he is exhibiting and for
which he claims marvellous properties.
1t came into his possession some months
ago, and was discovered in rather
singular manner Its original finder
was John Hill. of the far west,
who is ranch owner. and
spends great deal of his time in hunting.
Upon one of his expeditions he trailed and
killed upon the head waters of Devils
river snow white deer, something of a
rarity in any country and more especially
in Texas. 1t was a very large animal, a
doe, was in good condition, and its pelt
was particularly heavy and valuable.
In cleaning his quarry Hill found
the stone in its paunch, and pre-
served it on account of the curious place
in which it was hidden. Not that he had
any idea CT its occult properties He
dropped it one day upon the ground and
falling upon rock, small piece was
split out of it. Noticing that this wound
seemed TO be gradually healing up,
he thought that possibly it pos
seSsed other virtues than self
cure and gave it to Mr.. Lee to be tested.
saying that up in his thiniy settled
country there were not enough people TO
go mad. Since Lee took charge OF it it
has been tried on many occasions, and has
proved unfailiag' His first opportunity to
use it came while blowing in the field His
mare was bitten upon the leg by mad
prairie dog, which he had disturbed. The
limb swelled rapidly and he applied the

leg swelled again in the night and be

since applied it TO several animals bitten
By wild coyotes, and it has proven effica-

WEST VIRGINIA LEGISLATURE.
CHARLESTON, w. Va, Jan. 30.-The
lines between the caucus and the anti
| caucus Democrats were drawn sharp in
the voting today. All the influence that
Kenna could muster was brought to bear
on the recalcitrants, but to no avail. The
most he could muster on any bal
lot was 80, with A necessary to
choice. Golf received 40 votes; A
X. Barber, Decentralization man, receiv-
ed 8. and four Democrats received vote
each. The Democrats had clear major
lty OF two in the joint assembly owing to
the sickness of one OF the Republican
| members, but they were unable to take ad-
vantage of their opportunity. Senators
Flournoy and Van PeIt, and Delegates
Horr, Merrill and Dorr were the kickers.
There is possibility that Flournoy may
support Kenna, as he is understood to be
favorable to him.
There was an exciting scene today in the
hall of the house, between Dorr and mes
senger Kenna had sent to interview him.
Dorr was informed that his people were
about to hold a meeting denouncing him
for his course. He replied that if every
man in his home county were around him
threatening him if he did not vote for
kenna, he would not do so.
Tell kenna,' he said, that he will
never be elected to the senate by my vote.
This seems to be conclusive. The three
other kickers are equally as bitter as Dorr,
and unless every one OF them supports
Kenna he cannot be elected. There is a
rumor here that the Kenna men rely on
votes of one or two Republican members.
but it can not be verified.
The relations between Kenna and Cam
den have become very STRAINED. kenna
has letters in his pocket in which Camden
says that nothing could induce him to be
a candidate against him. Yet there are
other Democrats who have also letters
from Camden, authorizing them to an
nounce him as q candidate whenever in
their judgement it may be tit. The Cam
den boom is being worked against Kenna
for all it is worth, and has had consider
able effect.
The Democratic contest cases in the
house have become SO entangled in the
senatorial muddle that there is now no
hope that they will succeed. Both of the
contestants are Kenna men. The attor-
neys managing the curse are anti-Kenna,
and the result is that not step has been
taken or will be taken for some time. In
the meantime, it is highly probable that
the Republicans will unseat three Demo-
Gratis in the senate, and thus wipe out the
slender Democratic majority.
