Very Suspicious,

This morning young man named
Richard Young went to Guerguin's
pawn shop and wanted to pledge four
fine billiard balls. He could give no
satisfactory account of possession and

stranger, had been in the city two or
three days, and that stranger had
given him the balls. He was then
put in the bat cave as a suspicious
character.

FAILED AGAIN.
John T. Hambleton is Declared
the choice of the Sixth

JOhn u. famDletOn IS declared
the choice of the Sixth
Ward.
Last night q meeting of the voters
of the sixth ward was held in the col
ored church, corner of Chestnut and
Dawson street. A youthful Cal
laghanite stuck up as a figure head,
called the meeting to order and claim
ed to be chairman, and would allow
no other to be elected. He called for
nominations of the choice for alderman
of the ward. John II. Hambleton,
F.N. Rodgers, and F. LANCE were NOM
mated. The administration "heelers"
and ward "fiXers" from all the wards
were present and raised big noise,
but it was evident that the majority
of the peopl, wanted a man who
would do his duty, and not be the
craven subject of any autocrat. The
administration men, finding that they
could do no good for the party, bolted
the meeting and John II. Hambleton
was nominated by reclamation.
Mr.. Hambleton is by far the most
popular man in his ward, his honesty
and capability are admitted, and
though the administration will work
to defeat him he will be elected by a
big majority.

A Secret Friendship.

LONDON, January 31.-A Paris dis
patch says: Outside the Austrian
embassy news of the death of the
Austrian crown prince produced the
greatest commotion in the office of La
justice. Crown Prince Rudolf was
very intimate with NJ. Clemenceau,
but at RudOlf's desire the intimacy
was kept secret because Rudolf said
if tF fact became known at Berlin
he should never reign Clemenceau
held Rudolf in high esteem, as re-
markably able and cultivated man.
Everyone expressed surprise that one
SO 1.-the and active should be sliced
with apoplexy, though the family is
subject to epilepsy, and all thought
Rudolf escaped that malady. Gle
menceau says Rudolf's fear of Bis
marck would have been amusing had
there not been such terrible Sc
robustness. in his expression of it.

Last Days Of the Prince.

VIENNA, Jan. 31.-A dispatch to
the Fremden-B latter, from Meyerling,
says: Crown Prince Rudolf left Vien-
ma on Monday, in carriage for Brien-
tenfurth, where cab was in waiting
to convey him to Meyerling. The
prince, however, preferred to walk.
and did not use the cab. During the
walk he converseC cheerfully with
the guests, who accompanied him.
Tuesday, the prince and his
friends went out on a hunting
expedition. Upon the return of the
party, the Crown Prince complained
of headache, and retired to his room.
He sent telegram to the palace at
Vienna, stating no would be unable
to attend the Imperial dinner, which
was to be given that evening, and
wrote several letters in his own room.
Wednesday morning he awOke before
7 o'clock, summoned his old servant,
Johann, to whom he gave an order to
have breakfast served at $50. At the
appointed time his valet carried
his breakfast to his room, and
was Mortified to find the Crown
Prince dead in bed, the valet
rushed into the court yard and in
formed Count Hoyes and Prince Phil
lip, of Coburg. who hurried to the
chamber of the prince. Prince Phil
lip, who was overpowered by grief,
remained in the chamber while Count
Hoyes drove to Vienna to impart the
sad information to the imperial fami-
ly. The press says Hoyes, still at
tired in shooting costume, arrived at
Hofburg at 11:30 yesterday morning.
He was Immediately ushered into
the private study of the emperor, with
whom he was closeted a quarter
of an hour. The emperor then
fastened to the empress and informed
her of death of the crown prince. The
empress was greatly shocked, but at
ter few moments controlled her
grief and accompanied the emperor to
the rooms of the crown princess
StephanIe. The emperor and empress
had great difficulty in dissuading the
crown princess from driving instantly
to Meyerling. The emperor then re-
turned to his private apartments,
where he remained alone until p. m.
when he directed the remains of the
crown prince to be conveyed to
Vienna.

The Oklohoma Invasion.

WICHITA, Kan, January 31.-Maj-
or Lille, who went to Arkansas City
Tuesday to look up the Oklohoma
situation there, returned last night.
He says while the boomers are there
ready to make the invasion, the SOL
diers are also there to prevent it,.
The territory cannot be entered from
Arkansas City, the boomers may
make a quiet move to some other
point where the invasion can be made
with less danger of interference, per-
haps Caldwell or Hunnewell, the
present concent ration of troops would
make the plan possibly successful.
The organization has succeeded in
getting into Oklohoma, about eight
hundred men, who are now at work
there upon their claims. This
change of plan will not, it is claimed,
in any way stop the intended inva-
sion on Saturday.

The strikers--situat the Same

The Situation the Same
New YORK, January 31.-The third
day of the strike opens much the same
as yesterday. The situation of affairs
is unchanged. The two days stop
page of cars has cost the strikers S20,-
900, and stock holders of the roads
about $50, 900. Today the Belt line, and
the Broadway line have made ar
engagements to run cars, and most of
the other lines will attempt to do
some thing. Quietness reigned at the
east and west side stables during the
night, but each stablewas guarded by
police, in case of any trouble. There
were many applicants for work at the
Sixth Avenue stable this morning,
nearly all free hands. but few Of the
strikers have applied so far. 1t is
feared there will be trouble at the
Belt line.
On account of the rumor that an
attack was being arranged by strik-
ers for the purpose of securing arms
from the state arsenal at Seventh
avenue and Thirty-fifth streets, a
squad of twenty men from the Sec
ond battery have been detailed under
Lieutenant Pasco, to watch the ar
senal until the strike is ended. A
detail of ten men is also placed in
charge of the armOry of the second
battery, to protect the Gattling guns
kept there. Same reserve of force is
kept at police headquarters, as yes
terday, and the same general police
precautions are main tanned. The
Third avenue cars are now running,
and only one policeman is kept on
each car; the 23rd street line is run
ming regular number of cars at 10
O'clock.
