WILL BURKE sQUEAL?
His Attorneys Afraid He Will Try to
Save His Own Neck by Confession.

Early yesterday afternoon Attorney Forest
called on Coughlin at the Chicago Jail. one Of
the Cronin suspects, and from the ex-detective
he went directly to the boys department.
where he had talk with Burke that lasted
fully an hour and half. The subterfuge of
acting as Mr.. Kennedys assistant was no longer
in point, for the Wisconsin senator is in town
and able to look after his clients interest now
il he ever will be. Senator Kennedy and Mr..
Forest left the Jail together and the latter was
looking decidedly worried. As the coils tighten
around Burke the danger of his turning back on
his fellow conspirators to save his
own neck becomes Stronger. Senator
Kennedy, Burke's lawyer, went from the
Jail to the state attorneys Office and had half
an hours chat with Judge Longenecker. Mr..
Kennedy became very indignant when it was
suggested to him that he had made q PROPOSE
ton to have Burke turn states evidence He
said: I'VE have been having general CONVEX
sation and our only talk on the Cronin case was
when 1 asked the judge how long he thought
the case would last, how many weeks it would
take to get jury, &C." The state will have
bakers dozen witnesses at least to prove Burke's
frequent presence in the Carlson cottage.
young brick layer who lives in the vicinity
saw him there several times as he went home
from work and identified him in the Jail today.
All tine attorneys profess to be ready to 60 to
trial next Monday.

VENGEANCE IN A PRISON.
A Life Convict Tries to Kill q Man Who
Testified Against Him.

At Jackson, Mich, ten years ago Isaac Clark
and Dan Graham were sent to prison for life
for the murder Of Anthony Miller, an old
farmer, the principal witness against them be-
ing Enos II. Girard, who turned states evil
dence. A short time afterward Girard was sent
to prison for fifteen years for burglary COM
mitted at Pontiac. Isaac Clark declared, as
soon as he learned that Girard was in prison,
that he should never leave it alive. and Girard
has been in constant dread 30 much 30 that the
men were kept apart.
Several weeks ago Girard reported that Clark
was watching him and asked for protection.
Tuesday night as the men were marching to
their cells Clark dropped out of the ranks and
sprang upon GIrard with a shoe knife. He cut
Girard several times on the head and neck,
making ugly but not fatal wounds.
The men were dragged apart and Girard was
sent to the hospital, while Clark was placed in q
solitary CELL where he will be kept until Cir
ards term expires
1t is stated that Girard recently made an affi-
davit that his evidence, upon which Clark was
given a life sentence, was false from beginning
to end. Clark says he is innocent and that
Charles Platner and Girard plotted against him.
He says he is sorry that he did not Kill Girard,
and hopes to do so yet. Girard has fourteen
months vet to serve.

THE GREAT PROBLEM.
How All the Sciences are Fast Re-
solving Themselves Into One.

Father Barry in the Nineteenth Century.
am convinced that society must undergo
transformation or perish. And it is on this &C.
count that every thoughtful observer must wish
religion would take up the far-reaching prob
lens Of the distribution Of wealth; the relation
OF physical science to the property Of the
masses; the rights and wrongs Of prosperity;
the claims Of the individual to be trained for
his place in life and recompensed by a Sc
cure old age for the toll of his years Of
strength; in short, the whole question of ma
tional civilization on its human and social
side. I cannot say too emphatically that
it seems to me this thing has not been
done; is yet without place in our
books Of theology, to speak Of, and requires
doing in all manner Of ways. II anybody
thinks it an easy matter to be dealt with in q
few pages Of the treatise De Contractibus, or
healed by general remarks, however excellent,
on the good of poverty and the evil OF riches,
believe that man to be profoundly mistaken:
To find the solution will task the energy and
make severe demands on the good will Of our
best teachers; nor will they find it at all unless,
while keeping one eye on the books they keep
the other ON things as they are outside the
books
For all the sciences are now fast resolving
themselves into one-the social science. And
all the problems are resolving themselves even
faster into one-the social problem. Do you
tell me 1t is at the bottom religious? say go,
too. But the terms of its solution and the mat
ter about which it is concerned are primarily
not religious but of the present world and its
welfare. When our Lord said, Seek first the
kingdom of God and His justice, and all these
things shall be added to you He certainly did
not mean, and all these things shall be denied
to you, the workers that have produced them
by your own hard labor"

Lobenstein's Error of judgment.

From the Virginia City Enterprise
few days ago young man named Loben-
enstein fitted himself out to go ID the ice cream
business. He bought a wagon, freezers, &c,
but needed a horse. John Connerton, who
sells ice and ice cream occasionally, got wind
OF Lobenstein's venture, went to him and Of
fered him horse. you can have the horse
at your own price," said Mr.. Connerton, HE
is gentle and will do most anything"
Thereby hangs tale. The horse could do
most anything. 1t was a trick animal trained
by John Connerton.
Lobenstein took the horse. scorned to nav
less than $40 for him, and started out peddling.
His cheeks were aglow with business success.
and he had a large barrel of cream in his
wagon. Connerton followed him around at a
convenient distance and waited until the
young man got opposite Connexions residence.
on street, on the lower side of which place
there Is an empankment of about fifty feet.
Then John gave peculiar whistle from B
street opposite. The horse pricked up his ears,
kicked off the dashboard. and started down
the embankment, with driver, wagon, and all
rolling after him. The cream was all spilled
and opposition was swept from the face Of the
town. A crowd of children licked up the
cream from the rocks.
Later in the day Lobenstein leading his
horse, was hunting for Connerton, to whom he
disposed OF the animal for IS.

THE LATEST DODGE YET.
Riley Williams Novel Plan to Test the
Chicago Police.

From the Chicago Mail.
II see they've caught Tascott. Judge, Ell?
Good thing. like to see the law indicated.
Yes, sir, vindicated" said Riley Williams, a
grizzled old topper, who leaned Familiarity over
the Judicial bench at the armory this morning
and endeavored to be "chummy'' with his
honor.
What's that got to do with your being
drunk?" sternly replied the justice.
I'm one wsy it has nothing, but in another
it has everything. At FIRST l took no stock in
the efficiency Of the police, whether in Chi
cago or anywhere else. To test them az to
their aforesaid efficiency / got drunk and
wandered about looking for an officer, Just to
see If he would nail me. In two minutes was
nailed, thereby frightening my respect for the
sleuth-iike qualities OF the bluecoats. So you
see"
THAT will do, Riley. You seem inclined to
be bit funny this morning. You have tested
the efficiency of the police of this district so
often that they are actually tired Of arrestiug
you. I'll fine you"
well, well, but, your honor, how is it about
this Tascott business? Don't you think that
Texas sheriff is q little bit previous In claiming
to have Willie in the tolls? That $50, 900 re-
ward"
Ten dollars and costs. ought to make il
ESQ because Of your efforts TO throw the court
OF the track"
"Bnt I'll bet my character that the sheriff

as he shambled down stairs to await the COM

THE HAMERSLEY FORTUNE.
The Sex Of Baby Born Yesterday
Affects Millions of Dollars.

New York special to the Philadelphia
Press says that when Louis G. Hamersley died.
leaving son and e young widow, his for
tune of $4,000, 900 was left to her for life, and
if his son died without male issue the great
fortune was to rever. to specified charities.
A year ago the beautiful widow, Mrs. Hamers-
ley, married the duke OF Marlborough. The
charities named under the will we're unaffected
by her marriage, as any children born to her
and the duke of Marlborough would not inherit
the Hamersley fortune. But when J. Hooker
Hamersley married, soon after his young step
mother, the charities were interested as one
small baby of the masculine gender born to
young Mr.. Hamersley would divert millions
from New York charities. Yesterday afternoon
the news was flashed over the wire to this city
from College point OF Mrs. Hooker Hamersley q
confinement and that the issue to this Hamers-
ley line was male. A second report brought
a slight respite to the New York charities. II
was girl aud the millions of Louis Hamersley
still hung in the air. OF course the prospect ii
faint, but where 81. 000. 900 are in question the
smallest shred OF hope is worth nursing 1t is
barely possible that even in the event of long
line OF children born to j. Hooker Hamersley
they may all be girls.

A DELICATE LEGAL QUESTION.
A Cincinnati Precedent Which May
Throw Light on the Magic Case.

From the Cincinnati Enquirer.
The legal question now pending before the
circuit court Of the United States, sitting in
San Francisco, in the Field Terry-Nagle matter,
is one Of grave proportions-so grave and 90
strange to the books that Judge Sawyer re-
quested counsel to take . week for the prepare
ton of their arguments. Next Thursday was,
how ever, fixed for the hearing.
the case may be simply stated. It involves .
serious conflict between state and federal iuris-
diction. The state authorities claim that the
shooting Of Terry by Maggie was an onense
against the state laws and that only the Vate
courts can try it, Under this impression he was
arrested on . state warrant. The federal
authorities hold that Justice Field was passing,
In performance OF his jucicial duty, from one
federal court to another, accompanied by Maggie
as federal officer deputy United States mar
shall, and that the latter, in the performance
Of his duty, killed Terry-upon which basis
they claim that he is subject to inquiry for this
he was taken from the state authorities on
writ OF habeas corpus, and it 10 the legal pro-
priety Of that writ which will be considered ON
Thursday next.
The Enquirer has searched the adjudications
OF this country without finding a case exactly
In point; but there was . famous one which
occurred in this very city just before the war
which presents many analogous points. A
female slave had escaped, with her little child,
from Boone county, Ky., crossed the Ohio river
on the ice and took refuge in house in what is
now known as "Rat row." In moment OF frenzy,
fearing recapture, she cut the throat Of her
child with q rusty iron hoop. She was arrested
next day by officers from Kentucky under the
federal fugitve-slave law. she was arrested
by the Ohio state authorities for the murder of
the child. The federal law was given prefer
ence and the woman was taken back to Ken
lucky and thence speedily shipped to New Or.
leans. Ohio was unable to hold and try her for
the murder.
But, all the same, there is q prevailing i'm
preston throughout the land that California
should try the case and q perfect confidence
that she would handle it swiftly and properly.

Getting at His Name.
from the Chicago Tribune.


A Chicago man used the telegraph the other
day in an odd way. A visitor whom he had
met frequently in New York stepped into his
Office. 1t was business as well as inclination to
be exceedingly cordial to the New Yorker, but
for the life of him he could not recall his visi t.
ors's name. In the midst Of the conversation
the Chicago man was reminded Of a telegram
he had forgotten to send. Pulling out a blank
he sent the following to his New York house:
What's the name of Jenkins head man?
Can't recall it. He Is here
They chatted along for half an hour. when
the answer came. 1t read: ''Simpkins."
And now, Mr.. Simpkins, it is about time
for lunch" remarked the Chicago man.
