Julia NeIligan Meets Death Under
Strange circumstances.
EVIDENCE OF A DRUNKEN ROW.
The Body of the Woman Found at IA
Lime street Last Night Bears Marks
of vioIence-The Companions Locked
Up for Drunkenness.

About SEQ o'clock last night n woman
named Julia Nelligan was found dead in
the basement Of the house, IA Lime street
The woman had been drinking hard for
some time, and the theory was advanced
that she had died from natural causes,
superinduced by overdrinking. When
found the woman was surrounded by
four other women, all under the influ-
ence of liquor.
They were unable TO give n good ac-
count of the causes surrounding the
death, and were brought TO the Central
Station, where they were incarcerated.
Medical Examiner Palmer was notified,
and was soon on the scene. He ordered
the body conveyed TO the morgue, and
will hold an autopsy later.
When found the woman lay on the hoor
with her shoulders against partition and
her head hanging down on her breast. A
large bruise was found over the eye and
there were discolorations on the throat
made probably by fingers. The body was
cold, life having been extinct about five
hours.
The basement in which the woman was
found was occupied by a man named Hen
messy and woman named Munroe. The
latter woman was discovered in her bed,
and was covered with blood. Both her
eyes were horribly blackened. She claimed
that Hennesey had beaten her, but this he
emphatically denied.
The following are the women who were
found in the room: Mary Munroe, aged 33
years; Sarah Smith, 30 years of age
Annie Brown, 81 years, and Lizzie Burns,
"a years old. They were each fined 81 and
costs in the police court this morning for
drunkenness.
Hennesey discovered that the woman
was dead and notified Officer Merrill,
who instantly telephoned TO the Central
Station. Lieut.. Rankin and three Off
GERS responded and made the investiga-
tiOu

ALMY WILL Be HANGED.
Christie Warden's Murderer to Die
in December Next Year.
VAIN PLEA OF HIS COUNSEL,
Trying to Show that the Crime Was Only
Murder i'm the Second Degree - The
Verdict of the Court Received With
Cheers From "a Great Crowd.

PLYMOUTH, Nov. 19--The same morbidly
curious crowds pressed about the court
house this morning, and when the doors
were opened the people almost climbed
upon each others heads to get inside the
room where Frank G. Almy.s trial is
going on. Once all were seated, however,
the solemn stiffness seemed awful, for all
appeared to realize fully the fact that be-
fore they left the court room they might
hear the doom of the prisoner announced
by the Court.
A fire burned all night in Almy's room,
three officers being with him constantly,
while two patrolled the corridor outside.
The prisoner was restless during the
first part of the night, but after midnight
he slept soundly. However he may have
felt, when he was brought into the court
room at y O'Clock this morning he showed
no external sign of emotion.
The court room was nearly as cold as it
was yesterday, every one, including JUS
tices Doe and Allen, wearing his overcoat.
AT 9:04 o'clock the deputy raped for or
der and the argument was opened on the
question of premeditated murder. When
Justice Burleigh arose to say the last
words in behalf of the prisoner the drop
ping of pin could be heard across the
TOOUl. Il cfOMu IUdJ WAS
in the little space behind the rails, men
and women included, listened with bated
breath to every word.
Almy remained calm and impassive
most of the time, only changing his posi-
tion or twisting his mustache occasion
ally.
Burleigh's plea consisted mainly in the
citation of the statutes and in bringing up
illustrative cases tending to prove that
premeditation did not enter into the pres
ent case.
The attorney then spoke of the en-
lightened civilization which tries crimi-
nails more humanely than in the middle
ages, and statutes providing for the death
penalty were intended only for extreme
cases OF extreme cold bloodedness. Again
and again Attorney Burleigh asserted
that the meaning of murder in the second
degree was killing under a strong, passion
ate impulse, which might even be con-
pected with intent to kill but without
deliberation.
The statement that Almy was in too
low condition of mind to deliberate on
the night of the murder was the strongest
portion of the speech. Almy kept his
eyes fixed upon his counsel, eagerly drink
ing in every word that passed his lips, as
drowning man clutches ut "A straw.

GONE TO SPAIN
To Aid in Negotiating a Reel
prOcity Treaty
To Open Up the Markets of
Cuba and Porto Rico.

Ex-Minister Foster Sent Abroad with a
Mission Belief that He WIN He Sue
cessful, and That Another Important
Market VIII Soon BE Opened to ou
Farmers and Manufacturers.
WASHINGTON, March i6-It is almost
certain that when congress, meets next
winter Secretary Blaine will have ready
to submit to the senate for its action
treaty of the utmost Importance between
the United States and Spain. The prime
object Of this treaty will be to open up
the markets of Cuba and Porto Rico for
American farm products and machinery,
as well as many other articles made by
American labor The lines of the treaty
will he similar in many respects to those
of the convention negotiated by Minister
Foster during President Arthur's ad-
ministration.
Mr. Foster himself, who has for
number of gears past been q sort of a
general counselor for number of the
legations, and whose advice has been
constantly sought by Secretary Blaine,
sailed for Europe on Wednesday in COM
pany with James G. Blaine, Jr., who is
the clerk of the house committee on for
eign affairs. While the department Of
ticials are reticent concerning this mis-
sion and profess to have no knowledge
whatever of Mr.. Fosters movements, it
is very well known that Mr.. Foster
bears with him authority TO assist the
present minister to Spain in bringing
about treaty which will result in Wild
eniug the market for American products
in the Antilles. The enactment Of the
Mckinley law made this a comparative
ly easy matter as Spain has more to
gain from American concessions now
than she ever had before
Unless something is done to give the
United States more advantage than she
has hitherto enjoyed in Cuban markets.
Cuba will find the ports Of the United
States closed against her sugar, as in the
reciprocity clause of the tariff act it will
be possible for the president to declare
an import duty upon sugar coming
from Cuba while that from Brazil and
other South American countries, with
which treaties are now being negotiated
may come in free. That the Cuban
tobacco pays more duty than it ever did
before under the operations of this ad-
ditional tax is keenly felt by every
planter on the island, as we'll as the
sugar manufacturers themselves.
An Associated Eress dispatch, in an
nouncing the departure of Mr. Foster
and the nature of his mission, says:
The sugar question with Cuba is be
coming of vital importance. The enor-
nous produationof Of beetsugar in Euroce
has so seriously affected the cane sugar
production of Cuba that. with the ex-
cer:ion of the Spanish peninsula Cuba
is completely shut out OF the European
sugar market. Hence the island is now
practically dependent on the market of
the United States Cuba is bound up in
this trade; all her interests, such ~
plantations, railroads and hundreds OF
minor industries in the agricultural and
mechanical trades depend upon it, and
hence her great desire for this treaty
Mr. Blaine has been very busy on It.
and the departure of Mr.. Foster me ms
that the negotiations are nearly com
pleted. "

of a cross between a nuisance and

stood that Secretary Noble was only too
glad of an opportunity to get rid of
them. The Indians were, of course,
glad to do anything to get out of prison.
