he not know of the knife that had parted the white neck of the wronged and innocent MaunP And even now, with the awful work of pain and death and remorse before him, with nature wreaking her vengeance upon this fallen breaker of her laws, his heart was swept with passionate pity. He had not learned it; God had made him so, and God in that one touch perhaps was at His best.
 With a sickening sense of the deadly ills that had flowed out from this mans one sin, and like a family of vampires had returned into his bosom and fastened upon his heart, sucking it's life-blood out, the young man loosened his hold. upon the feeble wrists and stood up. The other lay still and rigid, with head thrown back and eyes set, as if John Earrings gaze had gone through his delirium into his life and destroyed it. In a moment as the young man gazed, a tremor ran over the frail wreck, and the chief of police came striding in with the picturesque subordinate, who had just deserted the dying man, trotting after him.
 John Earling did not look up; his eyes were bent upon the race or ashes before him. The end had come; the millions and millions of seconds that had made up this mans life had dropped away from it misspent until now the last dark few were falling. No words could compass it. No wind ever breathed into the night sigh as sad, no raln-drop ever fell into the darkness with sound so mournful, as this thoughts flight into the mind. John Earrings chin sank upon his breast with it, the human ruin before him stitf'ened, twitched, relaxed, gasped with thirst-tormented mouth, and lay still. The chief, who with the first look had dispatched the nervous private for doctor. said quietly: "It's no use," and John Earling walked out into the night, weak and dizzy from the scene of death.

BIG MONEY FOR PEDDLERs.
They Must Pay just Twice the Old
Fee for Licenses,

The members of the council committee on
licenses were the boys who suffered yester-
day afternoon. For over two hours they
were pounded with oratory and legal YER
biage. Fully thirty spectators watched their
writings. They were subjected to a cross
fire from retail grocers and peddlers and
their legal representatives.
The retail grocers want the peddlers'
license increased. They came in with a petit
ton a little over fourteen yards long asking
that relief. The peddlers now pay licenses
as follows: Horse wagon. SIS; push carts.
that the license fee for peddlers be quadru-
pied They were represented by B. j. Nc
lntyre the attorney. He took the first turn
at the committee. His speech was full
who are trying to make an honest living" and
other somewhat shopYorn expressions. He
argued that the peddlers were cutting into
the trade of the grocers and should be
stopped. He also tried TO influence the
minds of the committee by sighting refer
ences to the peddlers as class most of them
being Jews. He also claimed that they sell
decayed fruit and vegetables, and that fire.
quently two Or three of them peddle on the
same license, one carrying the tag and the
other the license certificate. His chief point
was that the grOcers suffer from the competl-
ton OF the peddlers.
Frank Nye. representing the peddlers' as
ISOLATION, urged that the council has no right
argued that, under the charter, the council
has no right to impose licenses for revenue,
but for the regulation of business merely.
To raise the peddlers' license fec would be to
legisl tie i'll favor of a certain class to the det
riment of another class. Competition
was the only thing complained OF
by the, grocers, the only reason they
wanted the license fee raised. Then one of
the peddlers made speech, declaring that
If the license were raised it would deprive
over 500 families of their means of support.
Peddlers ply their vacation for but three or
four months in the year anyhow, and already
pay big price for ii.
The committee went into executive session
to consider, Alderman Flanders. grocer,
being chairman. OF course, the license was
raised. Alderman Mcclure was the only one
who fought it. He believed the present scale
too high. as it is higher than that OF nearly,
if not quite. every city i'll the country. The
committee will recommend that license fees
for peddlers be as follows: Horse and
wagon, $3.50; push cart. Sl00; foot peddier,
$50. This tariff is practically nrohibitive.
The circus license was reduced. The
whole scale for tent shows, menagerie,
circus, etc. was cut in half That will make
the circus license $500 per day.
The council will be asked to allow c. l..
Alden, blind man, to peddle with horse and
wagon without the payment of a license fee.

Master Plumbers UItimatum.

The prospects for compromise between the
jcurneymen and master plumbers are dim
The builders exchange yesterday took
such action on the matter as will be likely to
confirm the master plumbers in their former
position. The master plumbers referred the
question at Issue 10 the exchange for an opin-
ion. That body appointed a committee to
investigate. The journeymen demand:
That eight hours, from a. m, until > D, m .
constitute a days work TO be paid for at the
old scale; that Time from p. IN. until mid
night be counted one and a half time; that
time from midnight to a. IN, count double
time; that holidays count as double time;
that none but union men be employed by the
masters; that plumbers be not allowed to
work OH gastitting and vice-versa.
The exchanges investigating committee
OF which c. NJ. Carpenter was chairman, re-
ported Yesterday. 1t recommended that the
exchange do not interfere in disputes be-
tween employer and employe until all fair
means for compromise have been exhausted,
and ii presented resolutions. These resolu
lions declare that the exchange believes in
the Well-known principle that any man has a
right TO employ whomsoever he pleases, and
that the exchange will recognize no body of
men who do not recognize this principle.
They recommend That The question of hours
constituting working day be left to the en-
ployer and employed. and that all work in
the building trades be done by the hour
They close by pledging TO the master plumb
ers the moral support and aid of the builders
exchange. The resolutions were adopted.
These resolutions voice the sentiment Of
the master plumbers. They are willing to
cOncede all the demands of the jeurneymen
but two-that none but union men be en-
ployed, and that the old rate of wages be
paid for eight hours work. The masters will
employ whom they choose, union or nom
union. AS to wages. they will pay 40 cents
per hour for eight hours work. Other re-
quests, regarding overtime, etc., they will
grant. Now the journeymen must take action.

1T is A LOTTERY.
Such Is Jury's Verdict Concern
ing the Clothing "CIubs."


The formation of clubs, consisting of "a
certain number of persons who pay in a
specified assessment once week and then
decide by chance who shall have the entire
amount, to be expended in the purchase of
some article, has become quite popular, and
the plan has been Yariously applied 10 the
sale OF articles of jewelry, clothing and fur
nture. Some dealers have looked
with jealous eyes upon their rivals
ing the patronage of these clubs.
The claim that the scheme was simply O lot
terry, and therefore contrary to law. was put
TO test m the municipal court yesterday
John Moren, the tailor was under arrest for
this alleged violation of the lottery law. The
defense showed that " hen man Joined the
club he paid in s.. and 81 per week there
after until he had drawn a suit of clothes.
when he retired and his place was taken by
another member. If, however, he wished 10

amount he paid in. The drawings occurred
weekly. and it was determined by chance
who should receive a $40 suit of clothes.
II a man remained IN forty weeks he
was entitled to suit of clothes

was made that this was not a lottery, as
q man got his moneys worth in any event.
and ran no risk of losing, necessary ele.
ment of chance game, ana, further, could
quit the club at any time and get the value
OF his money paid in AS far as Moren was
concerned, ii was claimed he only made the
clothes, and had no interest in the club.
The state took the ground that the weekly
drawings by chance constituted a lottery,
and the jury agreed to this, as a verdict of
guilty was returned after three hours delib-

and the defense will appeal to the supreme
court. Robert JamisOn prosecuted the case.

men found two men in the lodging house
who were undergoing suffocation. Joseph
Tudor. an Englishman, sixty years old, was
one He has since died He is said TO have
been under the influence of liquor when he
went to bed. 1t was in his room that the nre
started. Other dodgers said they had carried
him out, but they either lied or carried some
other man. When found Tudor was still
alive. but all efforts TO resuscitate him were
futile. His body is now at Connolly morgue

comment and Deen criticised SO much, that

Otis f. Moore a laborer, was the other suf
ferer. He was unconscious when found, but
prompt treatment saved his life. The dam
age to the building will not exceed 5000 or
800.
Last January this house caught fire in
about the same place early in the night. No
body was injured, because it was before the
hour for retiring. The chief of the fire de-
partment and the building inspector then
called attention TO the char acter of The build
ing, and denounced ii as a fire trap of the
worst sort. An attempt was made 10 prevent
the burned portion being repaired but this
failed owing to a defect in the ordinance.

Will be prevented, the faulty ordinance hav-
ing been corrected, and this may result in the
