The Authorities Are Having More than
They Can Do. ~s.-
A serious riot occurred at Monarch,
Pa. Though the riot resulted in the
probable fatal wounding of one man and
the serious injury of a woman, the
Sheriff OF Fayette County, with his dep
uties, has been defed and the Sheriff
himself assaulted-shot in the hand and
beaten and cut with an ak in the hands
of an Infatuated Hungarian woman.
Since the ugly Norwood affair the
women have taken the principal part in
defying deputies, the men either prefer
ring to obey the orders Of their leaders
and remain inactive or thinking the
Sheriff and troops would not be so severe
where women led the attacks Sheriff
Mccormick and his deputies went to
evict ten families Of striking Slavs, and
they had q bloody battle with an
Infatuated mob of men and women.
In order to reach the houses
the Sheriff and his deputies had
to march several hundred yards up
steep road, at which point he ordered
the militia which came up with him from
Trotter, to remain until they were
needed 1t was about II o'clock when
the sheriff and his deputies reached
house No. 105, occupied by Thomas
Tarr A crowd of three or four hun
dred men and women had collected in
front of the premises Tarr, with an
oath, declined to evacuate, and, Selling
an ak, stood in the doorway and defed
the sheriff to enter. Then the troubles
commenced. Men and women, in broken
English, yelled defiance and berated the
sheriff and his deputies in the strongest
language they could command. The sheriff
tried to reason with them, but without
avail Their blood was up, and nothing but
a frst-ciass battle would satisfy them
Andy Biashko wife, spying the sheriff,
made dive for him, pistol in hand
just as she was about to fire he struck
the pistol downward blow and at the
same time fired. The two pistols went
off simultaneously. The sheriff had
shot the woman in the flesh part Of the
left thigh, and she had shot him
in the left ankle. BY this time
the sheriff's blood was up, and with
a cooked revolver. 44-caliber, in either
hand, stood with his back against the
end of the house, and informed the mob
that the first one who made move
toward him he would shoot, and shoot to
kill Martin Scroupka left the crowd
and rushed at the Sheriff with huge
club uplifted. The Sheriff waited until
Scroupka got within five feet of him and
then fired The shot took effect, the
bullet striking Scroupka in the mouth,
knocking out two of his teeth and lodg-
ing somewhere in the back Of his mouth.
The wounded Slav wheeled and started
to run and the Sheriff followed him.
Some one shouted to the Sheriff to look
out, and turning he saw Tarr, the man
on whom he had served the writ. COM
ing toward him with an ak The Sheriff
pointed both his revolVers at him and
Tarr retreated. By this time Capt.
Frasher, of Company G, hearing the
shots and the uproar, had brought the
soldiers up the road on double quick,
and their presence at once quelled the
rioters. Tarr is now in jail.

A remarkable fact in regard to the water
is that during single bath person can
drink from six to nine pints without any
unpleasant effect The failure of the
water to act as an emetic when taken in
such quantities and at such high tenn

quantity of free carbonic acid with

Won M0LTKE IS DEAD
After Seventy Years of Active
Military Life.
GERilhHY'S GREATEST GENIUS
Ihe warrior Comes to His End Without
Warning-All Germany Shows Deep
Regret to His Memory-In Telegram
of Coincidence the Emperor Says That
in the Death of Won MOltke Germany
Lost More than an Entire Armv

BERLIN, April 27.-The announcement
Of Gen. Won Moltke's death came like a
shock on the German people. He had
attended the reichstag in the afternoon
but returned home in his usual health.
At 9:45 as lie was about to retire, he
was attacked with heart disease and
lived but few minutes.
Won Moltke was born Oct. 2, 1900,
and his 90th birthday was the occasion
Of a great celebration. Count Won
MoltEe entered first into the Danish SER
vice, Icing Of Danish descent, but
shortly aiterward, in 1922, passed into
the frussian army. In 1856 he made a
voyage to the East, where at the re-
quest Of the sultan he undertook i'm
portant military reforms in the Turkish
service. Returning to Prussia, he was
appointed chief of staff in 1856 and aide
de camp to Prince Frederick William.
He devised the campaign Of 1866 against
Austria, and is credited with having
laid out the plans of operations for the
Franco-Prussian war, and he was the
chief military director on the German
side in that great struggle. He has
since been the chief military figure in
Europe, keeping up his activities even
until his death. He attended the reich
stag in the afternoon and died suddenly
at 9:45 in the evening of heart disease.

WASHINGTON, April 27.-Senor Man
uel de Calvan has arrived in this city
from San Domingo and has notified Sec
retary Blaine that he has been given
power to negotiate a reciprocity with
the United States. In an interview
Senor Calvan said: San Domingo is
very anxious to negotiate this treaty.
and as an earnest of its desire it pro-
poses to cut down its customs receipts,
which are the sole revenue of the coun-
try, by admitting American goods either
free Of duty or with very low tariff
The United States has been quietly ne
gotiating for long time to secure a
coaling station in the West Indies, and
efforts have been made to locate the
station in Mole St. Nicholas in Hayti.
San Domingo is now about to offer
Samana bay for this purpose. This is a
harbor large enough to float a navy
many times the size of that of the
United States.

NOLTKE AT 90 all OF the general
official class. In many instances private
meetings for social enjoyment were
broken up as soon as the news reached
the participants, and the guests in the
decorus German way thus testified their
Love for the Departed Hero.
1t was not long after the death of the
field marshal that kilograms of sym
pathy began to pour in upon Capt.
Won Moltke and his wife. the nephew
and niece of Count Won Moltke, who
presided over the field marshals domes-
tic establishment. First among these
messages of coincidence was one from
Emperor William. at Wartburg, in the
Thurgian forest, where he is at present.
The emperor is, however, now mOmen-
tarily expected in Berlin. A steady
stream of sympathetic messages then
poured in from all the German princes:
and from men famous in all the walks
of life, not only in Germany, but In
every country on the continent. The
late field marshal in his will desires that
his body shall be buried at Creisau, by
the side of his wife, who died on Christ
mas eve, 1878. The will also directs that
the funeral shall be strictly private, and
| of the most unostentatiOus character.
It is thought possible, however, that the
emperor will override the latter provi.
sion and crafty the universal desire OF
the German people that state funeral
shall testify to their feeling of pride
love and gratitude for the dead field
marshal.
Preparations for a Magnificent Funeral
The funeral will take place Thursday
There will be a magnificent military
and civic procession to the railway sta
ton, whence special train will convey
the body to Creisau. where, in accord
with the wish of the deceased, it will b.
quietly inferred by the side Of his wife
and child. In his telegram of condol
ence the emperor says that in Moltkt
Germany has lost more than an entire
army. Lessing has taken a cast Of thu
face of the deceased. In the Prussial
diet, the president, after announcing
Won Moltke's death, said that German.
was in mourning, and he proposed al
adjournment, which was taken. In tn
upper house Won Moltke's seat wa
adorned with flowers and black ant
white ribbons. The house also ad
iourned at the announcement of the
generals death.

sailed for Norfolk, and it is announced
that the Haytien government has re-

lease for the proposed coaling station at
Mole St. Nicholas. Admiral Gherardi

was believed that the arrival of Admiral
Walkers command, in addition to Cher

that the United States intended to back
up the demand with sufficient show of
force to insure the consent Of Hayti. If
such was the intention the result has
