Providence oil Dealer Kills a Des-
 perate Character Who Invades His
 Store.
 PRov1DENcE, June 14.-At 4:30 this after noon Albert H. Olney, member of the firm of Olney Bros, oil dealers of No. 2 South Water street, this city, and No. 40 Congress street, Boston, shot Martin Mullen just below the heart in the South Water street store. Null len died at the Rhode Island hospital in the early evening. Mullen was about 40 years old and ten years ago was we'll known to the police here as a desperate character. His wife was at one time employed ss a domestic in Albert H. Olney's family and tirin of the husbands dissipsted habits sought divorce. In this endeavor she was aided by her en- pIoyer, who thus drew upon himself the en- unity of the man. Mullen threatened him with all kinds of harm, but soon disappeared and was seen no more here until a week ago. Then he hung about Olney's office. He was well dressed, and the theory is that he had lately been discharged from penal institu- tion. He made frequent entries into the office and was ordered out and finally put out. Once he threatened to split a clerks head open if he was not given five dollars instantly. Again he was caught trying to take money from the safe. The police were asked to watch the store and keep the man out, and Patrolman Collins once removed him, but made no arrest. This afternoon he came in again. Albert Olney and his brother, John, were in the inner office and clerk named Little was in the back room. Albert told Woaid Wasn nos rhs go men 0u' were in the he outer room when Mullen, with an impreca- tion, made threat at Mir. Olney and started to assault him. The merchant considered his life endangered and drew pistol, pointed it at his assailant and fired. Mullen stag gered out to the street door and fell on the hagstones.
 Medical Examiner Palmer pronounced his wound mortal and he was taken to the hos pital cursing, but on his arrival sank into an unconscious condition and never rallied.
 He sank rapidly and died soon after o'clock. MT. Olney surrendered himself to policeman. He said he shot to save his own life. He yves held in $5, 1000 bail on charge of assault with intent to kill. Detective Parker says Providence never produced tougher citizen than Martin Mullen. He has been thief and villain for twenty five years and no one wes safe who offended him in any WAY

THE SAMOAN CONFERENCE.

Announcement That 1he Samoan
 Agreement Has ReeA RatiAed-It
 Will Not be Made PubIic Until Con-
 Armed by the Senate.
 WASHINGTON, D. O., June 14.-Secretary
 Blaine announced in the cabinet meeting to-
 day that the Samoan agreement had been
 ratified and it was pronounced eminently sat-
 isfaotory to our government in its final shape. Little additional information could be gleaned at the State department respecting the treaty. It is now understood that the agreement originally submitted to the State department was found to be satisfactory to the President, Secretary Blaine and the rest of the cabinet. State department officials are not yet certain whether or not the Sa- moan agreement should be made public be- fore the meeting of Congress. As g formal
 treaty pertaining to international questions,
 1t will have to be submitted to the Senate,
 but a simple agreement the eState depart
 ment has power to make public its provis-
 ions at its discretion,
 The agreement between England, Germany
 and the United States on Samoan affairs was signed at Berlin at two o'clock in the after
 noon. It will not be made public until con- irmed by the Senate. While it is called an agreement by officers of the state department w 6ikef blAlue sAlU uo LuOuSub lb Woulu uu- doubtedly require ratification by the Senate. If the instrument were one regulating the conduct of the two countries towards each other, as for instance between the United States and Samoa, it would properly be des- ignated as treaty, but where the instrument signed is to shape the conduct of three gov ernmsnts, the United States. England and Germany, 1t is held that 1t isn't proper mo- menclature. At the same time as it is 8 mat ter affecting the foreign policy of the United States it is said that 1t will need ratification by the Senate.
 The agreement was cordially approved by all members of the co onference and by the re- spective governments. The best feeling pre- vailed at the termination of the lsbors of the commission.
 BERLIN, June 14-America having aban- doned her principal objections to the agree ment previously arrived at, the plenipotenti- aries had only to make one essential modif- cation In the wording of the draft of the treaty. The draft guarantees an autonomous administration of the islands under the joint
 control of Germany and America, England acting as arbitrator in the event of differ ences arising. The Samoans are to elect
 their own king and viceroy and to | be represented in a senate composed of the principal chiefs and chambers elected by the | people. Samoa is to have the right of levy \ in duties of every kind. The treaty also | stipulates that the Germans shall receive the | money indemnity for their losses. A special | question. The Americans made their adhe- | sion conditional upon the ratification of the | treaty by the United States Senate. The | status quo will, therefore, obtain in Samoa until December. MT. Phelps will carry the | treaty to Washington.

 for a Fair Haven Resident-Personal Notes - Entertainments to Come General Notes of Local Import.
 Moses Jones, we'll known colored resi- dent of Fair Haven, has at last received pension. He was severely wounded in the war and sustained injuries that almost made him cripple. He has obtained living by doing all sorts of odd jobs for people in Fair Haven, but at last his pension has arrived and it is large enough to keep him comforta- bly, so as long as he lives. He has endeavor- ed to secure 8 pension for many years through various agents, but he met with no success. Last year he was visited by pen sion agent who pronounced him totally dis- abled, but the pension did not seem to come any faster on that account. At last Belva Lockwood interested herself in this claim and secured it's allowance. The amount al- lowed Is $S per month from Aug. 10, 1865, to June 6, 1866, and from that date to June 4, 1872, $15 per month, and from the latter date to Sept, IA, 1881, SIS per month, from and $30 month thereafter. This makes the amount due about $6, 900.

Sylvanus Butler she Well Known Civil Engineer Dead-A Sketch of
 His Life.
 Another oi New Haven's prominent and
 best known citizens passed away last even-
 ing. Sylvanus Butler, who has been ailing

 A. M.; Quinnipiac lodge, I. O. o. F.; Safety Sons of Temperance.
 MT. Butler was born in Harwinton, Conn.,, Jan. IS, 1s1s His parents were Sylvanus and Sophia Butler. He had three brothers, two of whom, B. W. Butler of Westville and Lewis Butler of Campville, Conn.,, survive him. Mir. Butler first started to learn the carpenter trade, but did not like the work and soon after went to teaching school in Bristol, Conn. He was but twenty years old at this time. After teaching city. After working for the New Haven Clock company short time he left to take a position as surveyor on the Canal road, on which work was then commencing. He was employed on this road as surveyor until the line was completed to the State line, when he went into the freight office of the road, where he remained one year. He secured position as civil engineer on the Shore Line railroad until that road reached compile tion. Then he secured the position of ticket agent at Saybrook, where he remained for two years. From Saybrook he returned to this city. The New York, New Haven and Hartford railroad was being con- structed at this time, and MT.

THE GROWN INVESTIGATION.

The Judge Renders His Decision after
 Reviewing the Evidence given Re-
 fore the CorOner's Jury.
 CHICAGO, June 14-The judge, after re- viewing at length the evidence given before the coroner's jury, said that while various witnesses had testified to the bitter animosity existing be- tween the men and to Cronin's frequently expressed belief that his life was in danger and that Sullivan would be glad to have him out of the way, they had failed to show
 that Sullivan was remotely connected with the events surrounding the murder. One witness had testified that 1t was his "impres- sion" that Sullivan had at one time expressed
 the belief that Cronin should be "removed,'
 but that was the only evidence given that
 or suggested that it should be taken.
 The evidence may be said to have
 shown that Cronin was murdered by personal
 enemies for reasons growing out ok his con-
 nection with the Clan-na- Gael, but there was no proof that Sullivan was even remotely associated with those enemies or the con- spiracy they formed. In concluding the judge says the ooroner's jury was evidently largely influenced by hearsay evidence. 'There can be no doubt from this testimony that suspicion points strongly towards the respondent, and strange to say one of the strongest evidences or ulS uAtI0u OI the Qe- ceased appears to have been furnished by Sullivan himself since the murder of Cronin.
 At the time of sullivan's trial in 1888 at Buffalo, Dr. Cronin was one of the jury or committee. Sullivan remonstrated or protested against his serving as such and when the committee met on the day of ! March to consider their report they receive ed 8 communication or protest from Sulli- van in which he charged not only ! that Crenin was sn enemy of his, but
 that he was a perjurer and sooundrei, and ! went into specific charges in detail. It seems almost impossible to think that if he was and knew that he was party to this
 conspiracy he could have promulgated the protest two weeks after Dr. Cronin was mur- | dered.n
 The judge says he does not believe that
 any impartial man could, however. con- vict Sullivan on simply the evi- dence given before the coroner's jury.
 The jury cannot either pronounce upon Sullivan's guilt. Other things may, and probably will, develop in connection with

The Suicide of Q Prominent Clan.na.

The Suicide of . Prominent Clan-na-
 Gael Man in Indianapolis.
 INDIANAPOLIS, June 14.-A sensation WAS made here last night by the announcement that Patrick A. Ward, president of the Irish American Republican club and the most conspicuous Clan-na-Gael man in the city, had committed suicide at the supper table ty taking poison. The news spread rapidly and large crowd gathered around the house. Beyond the fact that Ward had swallowed cyanide of potassium and had died instantly nothing could be learned. The intimate friends of the dead man say that he has been low-spirited ever since the murder of Dr. Cronin and that the murder has been con- stant subject of his conversation. When Harrison was nominated Ward organized a Republican club and was very active in the campaign, although he had always been an uncompromising Democrat. The local Re- publican managers promised that his services should be recognized, and for three months he has been looking for an appointment. When Cronins body was found and the later developments pointed so strongly to Clan- na-Gael conspiracy, Ward seemed to think that his prominence in the order would pre- vent the fulfllment of the promises that had been given him.
