EAT CROW WITH A RELISH
Leaders of the Defeated Cities View
the Situation Calmly.
Will do ALI in Their Power to Make
the Fair a Success.
Some Think Chicago Has Taken Too
Heavy a Burden.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 24.-The fight over
the world Is fair site is regarded as settled
by the action of the house today. New
York leading representatives accept the
defeat calmly and philosophically and con-
slider it final. They say New York. de-
spite many drawbacks, made a gallant
fight, and now they have been beaten they
bow gracefulls to the situation and
intend to do what they can to
make the fair success. Chicago, the
New York leaders think, has taken an i'm
mense. responsibility upon herself They
express the hope and belief that she will
succeed, but Depew, Grant, Flower and
the others say that Chicago is under-esti-
mating the cost.
Mr.. Depew said tonight: New York
went into this contest expecting to win
If the vote had been taken four weeks
ago, we are confident that we would have
won. We feel that we have lost by our
foolish quarrels. We accept the verdict
with equanimity and will do our best to
make the fair at Chicago the phenomenal
success of the century. Chicago has as
sumed the most frightful responsibility
that ever great municipality undertook.
The most marvellous exhibit of modern
times has just closed in Paris. What
ever Chicago does is to be compared
with that. If she equals it she has made
a success; if she surpasses it she has made
triumph if she falls below it she will be
held responsible by the whole American
people for having assumed what she
was not equal to. believe, however,
she will succeed.
Many st. Louis and Washington men
have already announced that they intend
to work for Chicago. 1t is not believed
that the strength of the opponents of the
fair will exceed sixty votes 1t is probable,
however, that large number of members
will be found in favor of postponing the
fair until 1898.
Tonight the Chicago people are over
flowing with gladness. Jollifcation meet
ings are being held. When the house
meets tomorrow a motion will be made
tC re-commlt the worlds fair bills to
the special committee. After this
has been done the committee will proceed
to amend the tri-city bill so as to make it
conform to the wishes of the Illinois mem
bers of the committee The amended bill
will then be reported back with Chicago
named as the site, and the bill will be put
upon its passage In the house.

THE MARTYRS now ON TRIAL.
Temperance Crusaders Find They
Oversteppsd the Mark.
They are Being Tried for DemoliShing
Missouri Saloon.
The Treatment They Received is Lu-
dicrOus i'm the Extreme.

trenton, Mo-, Feb. 21.-A train load
of Spickardsville temperance crusaders ant
their sympathisers arrived this morning
to attend the trial of the ladies arrested
for demolishing the saloon of Thomas
Brady. At the station a crowd of SEQ
Trenton crusaders were drawn up to re-
ceive the martyrs The Trenton crusaders
were headed by brass band and scattered
throughout the ranks were numerous
standard-be who carried aloft
banners and transparencieS bearing
notices with appropriate sentiments. A
procession was formed and with the six
teen Spickardsville crusaders in the place
of honor marched to the opera house,
where arrangements were made for a pub
lie meeting. Addresses were made by
Rev. J. P. Davis and Rev. B. Lockhardt,
of the Christian church; Rev. Mr.. Rob
bins, of the Methodist Episcopal church of
Spickardsville, and c. ]. Ringe, of this
city. Rev. Mr.. Cox announced that the
Trenton ladies had prepared collation.
for the visitors, and the meeting adj
iourned for lunch.
At 80 Justice Shanklin, before whom
the case was tried, called the court to
molishedssaloon, was the first witneSt. He
told how his building had been wrecked.
During the cross-examination the defense
questioned him with the purpose of show
ing the saloon to be public nuisance and
ought to have been abandoned. The
prosecution objected to that line of cross
examination, and pending the justice de-
cision on the point, the court adjourned.

Not riot,-

Notoriety.
PARIS, Feb. 2l.-Ihe announcement of
the intended production of pas ion play
IN this city in Easter week has scandalized
the religious party in Paris, and there is
a considerable outcry against it, 1t is not
unlikely that the censor of plays will forbid
it, Sarah Bernhardt seems to have set
her heart on it, and is in a great state of
mind over the indignation which her
purpose has aroused. She asks what
greater harm there can be in presenting a
passion play in Paris than presenting one
IN Oberammergau.
She contends that she belongs to the
same glorious Jewish race as the Virgin
Mary herself y and that in addition to
this, she has been baptized and has taken
the communion In Roman Catholic con-
vent. If she acts the part she says she
will not 60 to Munkacsy, tut to the pre-
Raphaelites for inspiration in the con-
ception and portrayal OF the character, and
will fall back upon her own youthful
imaginings when she was a boarder at the
Versailles convent.
The general opinion In religious circles
and the APPARENT sentiment of the govern
ment are sufficient indications of the
temper In which the audacious scheme of
Nine. Bernhard is received, and the whole
affair will probably amount to nothing
more than another exhibition of this pc
culiar womans eccentric nature and
hunger of notoriety and novelty. Anthing
further would be generally regarded will

MORE HORRIBLE DETAILS.
Further Information Regarding the Out
RACES That Led to the Suicides.

LONDON, Feb. 22-Further details of
the outrages at the political prison at Kara
to the Russian exiles reached London to-
day 1t appears the trouble originated in
the hunger strike" in August, when the
women political prisoners tried to starve
themselves to death to escape the brutali-
ties of their jailors. All the women inn
prisoned abstained from food for fourteen
days. At first the jailors jeered at the
women and then tempted them with food
and then finding this of no avail threaten
ed them. When several women were at
the point of death from voluntary abstin-
ence from food the prison officials
resorted to artificial means to compel
them to take nourishment. The methods
adopted, however, were violent and Geen-
tious and the women were compelled to
abandon the strike. Abominable out
RACES followed. This state of affairs led
Madame Sigida, whose death by hogging
was announced, to ask for an interview
with the direc-or of the prison in hope of
securing an ameliOratiOn of the condition
of the prisoners. The request was granted
but she found him so abusive, that In her
evaporation she called him villain and
slapped his face Madame Sigida was
then taken from the director Office and
conveyed to the prison in which common
offenders are kept. Three companions
from among the political prisoners were
permitted to join her. Some time later
Baron Korff sent special order directing
that Madame Sigida be punished accord
ing to the regulations and ordered it exc
cuted to the fullest extent. TIE punish
ment was so severe that death ensued from
a ruptured heart. Her three companions
committed suicide within an hour time
after hearing of her singular death.
Many hearing of the fogging and suicides
carried out their threats of suicide. They
met together and thirty of them shared

NOT THE MAN.
Strong Suspicion About Kelly the Suspect
Not Recognized.

CHICAGO, Feb. 20.-J B. Kelly, the
man arrested in st. Louis, on suspicion of
having been connected with the Cronin
murder, spent last night In comfortable
bed In the Detectives headquarters In the
Central station. He was not put II. a cell
owing to the belief ON the part of Chief
Marsh that a mistake had been made In
arresting him. Referring to the failure of
Mrs Conklin and Frank Scanlon to iden-
tify him, Kelly said: ''Why, to me, this
is all nonsense, because | know they can
not identify me In connection with any
thing concerning the killing of DR.. CronIn-
| am not worrying In the least.
Chief Marsh said this morning that he
was very much inclined to doubt whether
the latest Cronin suspect was either J. B.
Simonds or Smith, the man who drove DIR.
Cronin to his dea b. "Still, said he,
I'VE shall not let this man go because Mrs.
Conklin and Mr.. Scanlon failed to recog-
nize him last night. They declared he
looked very much like the fellow who drove
Dr. Cronin away, though he was somewhat
older and larger looking 1t all depends
upon what Hatfield and Throckmorton
say. If they fail to recognize him, guess
we shall have to let him go.
When Kelly was brought face to face
with Mrs. Conklin and Frank Scanlon
both declared that the voice and gestures
of the man were similar to those of the
man who drove Dr. Cronin to his death,
but NEITHER could positively identify him.
They said that he looked too old, but
admitted that riding twelve hours In a
railroad train in irons would be likely to
show in his personal appearance. Both
insisted that they had seen the man be-

ASHLAND. Wis, Feb. 24.-Local labor
circles are all torn up over the action of
the United Brotherhood of Laborers for

lied last October on the following very pc
culiar platform: "We, the citizen labor
ers of Ashland of all crafts and callings,
do bind ourselves together and demand,
first, that the hours of labor be reduced
that all who wish may find remunerative
employment; second, that all city
improvements shall be done by the
city under judicious supervision at
fair and equitable compensation, resi-
dents having a prior claim to such labor;
that no more contracts be let or fran
chises granted to either individuals or
corporations OF any thing pertaining to
the city" The order has grown rapidly
during the past winter and now
has a membership of several hun
bred voters Very recently it has
been secret political society
The obligation. after binding an appli-
can't for membership to secrecy and
obedience, closes: II further promise to
vote for no one at city or municipal
elections in this city for any Office of
trust or emolument unless a regular NOM

announcement of this obligation as part of
the brotherhood pledge come another to
the effect that the brotherhood proposes to
put an entire city ticket in the field and
make a determined effort to capture the
city government and put their ideas into
practical execution. As matters stand now
the brotherhood appears to have very good
chances of success
