ROW In A VARIETY THEATER.


COLUMBUS, o.. May 24.-The recent order
of Mayor Karb closing low variety theaters
with bar attachments where women were
admitted came near resulting in a tragedy
at an early hour this morning. s. /. Nor
ris, the proprietor of q theater of this class.
was taking a benefit last night. and the po-
lice had reason to believe he was vio-
latiDg the order, and an officer pro-
ceeded to inspect the wine-roOms and
private boxes. He entered the private
apartments of Mrs. Morris on the same
floor, and she made an attack on the officer
ordering him out. She was joined by Morris
q moment later, and the two, with some
female friends. retired to the private
apartments and Morris barricaded the
doors, defying the police. While the officers
were making al effort to batter down the
doors Morris fired two shots, which passed
through the panels. but nc one was injured.
He refused to be taken alive, and held the
officers at bay for two hours with the
threat that he would kill the first who en-
tered.
A great crowd gathered, and the excite
ment was such that the situation became
critical until Chief of Police Murphy or
dered the crowd to dispense. Two hours
surrounded the house he would surrender
if they would not arrest the women. This
stipulation was agreed to. but Mrs. Morris
made such q vicious attack on the officers
when they entered the room she was also
locked up in the city jail. Morris is charged
with shooting to kill and his wife with in
terfering with the officers.

BARDSLEY'S L
What Has Become Of the Money Is q Question
Philadelphians Would Like Answered.

PHILADELPHIA, May 24-Nothing new
was developed to-day that would serve to
throw light on what has become of the mill
ion of money that City Treasurer Bardsley
says he deposited in the Key tone Bank and
which Examiner Drew and Receiver Yard
ley say there is no record of on the banks
books. The two questions that excited the
greatest interest to-day were: Will Bards-
ley be well enough to appear at the hear
ing of his case tomorrow and what
has become of the fugitive Marshf
There is no doubt but that Mr..
Bardsley is a very sick man. the terrible
strain which he has been under having left
him completely FRUSTRATED. The SIS, 1000
which Mr.. Bardsley is accused of misappro-
priating, it seems, does not belong to the
city at all. 1t is said that the money
was that retained by Mr.. Bardsley
from warrants of highway con-
tractors as q guarantee OF the
faithful fultillment of their work. If,
when the case is given q hearing, Mr..
Bardsley can prove, which from present iu-
dIcations he can. that be paid over the
money to the contractors, the city authori-
ties will be placed in the embarrassing
position of having hauled into court on
q criminal charge q man whom, as yet,
they have no evidence against to warrant
such . charge.
