cRoNIN,s FEARS.
He Anticipated violent Death-Alex-
ander sullIvan's specuIations.


At the inquest in Chicago yesterday
Maurice Morris, retired metal manu-
facturer, knew Dr. Cronin very well and
the doctor had several times told him
that he expected to be asssssinated for
the cause he was trying to better and i'm
prove.
From whom did DR.. Cronin say he
expected dangerf'
From Alexander Sullivan.
Are you member Of the United
Brotherhood
yes; Camp No. 268.
did you ever hear any member of the
Brotherhood threaten DR.. Cronins lifer
''No-o-o. Well, heard John f. Finerty
say once: We must get rid Of these
damned doctors, meaning DR.. Cronin
and DIR. McCahey"
did you ever hear of Dr. Cronin
being threatened by any one else than
those mentioned
"Yes, | heard that this man McGeehan
said in McCoy's Hotel that these damned
doctors should be shot, meaning Drs.
Cronin and McCahey."
who told you this9'
Joseph 0'Byrne. l told the Doctor
of it" ae.. IS
Did DR.. Cronin tell you why he feared
McGeehan7'
Because McGeehan would be used by
Alexander Sullivan as a dupe to carry out
his plans. Dr. Cronin said once to me,
i believe this McGeehan came from Phila-
delphia to kill me.
why did he think Sullivan would be
the cause Of his death?9
'Dr. Cronin told me that he had de-.
voted his life to purifying Irish politics.
He also said that he had proof that would
convict Sullivan of embezzling a large
amount Of money belonging to the Irish
cause.
The doctor had told Mr. Morris that
Major Sampson had told him that he
had been hired to kill the doctor. Samp
son is the man who says Detective
Coughlin wanted him to ''do up" Cronin.
The real sensation Of the day was the
production of the books of the defunct
Traders Bank now in the hands of a re
ceiver, which showed Alexander Sulli
vans account there, opened in 1882. The
account originally $100,000 was drawn
upon by Sullivan by giving two checks
OF $50 600 each, one of $25, 900
and another of $4,000, all in
favor of the Board OF Trade firm of John
I, Lester & Co., with whom it is alleged
Sullivan speculated Immediately after he
got hold of the Clan-na Gael funds
These checks were made out in favor of
Lester h Co., by Sullivan and indorsed
by the firm when deposited in the bank
Testers books with Sullivans account
will be produced next and will be apt to
show every stock and grain transaction
made by Sullivan. Cronin always main
tanned that Sullivan threw away the
Clan a-Gael's money in speculation
instead of using it to send men to Eng
land to blow up buildings in that country.
that being the use for which it was
intended.
Alexander Sullivans attention was
called TO night to the testimony of Re.
ceiver Smith this afternoon at the in
quest Mr.. Sullivan said there was moth.
ing whatever in the Traders Bank ac-
count which could not and would not be
satisfactorily explained whenever any
proper judicial proceeding required it.
At any time during the past six years ne
could have obtained and destroyed the
checks IL he so desired but as there was
nothing to conceal anybody having any
right to an explanation could get it al
the proper time.

OTTAWA, June THE Behring sea dIfi-

oa soiuuon that has ever arisen between
-nng iand and the United States. The govern
ment at Washington have in every wav nos

eignty in Behring sea. Armed cruisers have
oeen ordered TO repair to Sitka, with instruc-
ions TO enforce the law Of tine United States.
and capture all foreign vessels caught fishing
an the disputed waters. On the other hand
~ne sealing heet at Victoria is pushing on its
preparations for a seasons fishing in Behrins
sea- The British war vessels stationed on
the Pacific coast are also preparing to ac
company the sealing fleet.
A private letter from the solicitor for the
seized British sealers, who is personally inter
ested in seal fishery matters, contains the
following:
You seem 10 have a war scare regarding
Behring sea. Wen, there will certainly be
serious trouble if the United States fleet at
ternpts the seizure of British vessels this year
without reference TO the British war ships
presence. The sealing captains win net If
hailed by United States cutters this year,
'round to, pull down the Union Jack, and
tamely surrender in mid ocean They win,
on the contrary, assert their rights, and force
must be used 10 capture them. That force
will be met by force almost certain, and then
real trouble will begin. As to the object of
the British war ships in entering the sea- ann
convinced their Instructions are the same as
last year's-prevent capture IL they can, and
in case Of capture protest, and II a release is
not granted rescue every captured ship flying
the British flag. There is a very strong feel.
1ng here that this year will see the end Of the
trouble or the beginning Of greater and more
serious complications That the United States
will persist IN the absurd claims seems incredi
BILE, and is in fact not seriously believed by
even their own people OF this coast, who are
almost unanimously in favor Of opening tn,
sea TO the world. Last year our vessels had
a walkoyer and realized splendid profit
This year they will boldly enter the sea ant
claim the rights that British seamen and ships
have on ocean waters everywhere else on th,
