Arrested at Monaco for Mnraer,

MONACO. March ga man and woman
have been arrested here charged with the
murder of physician named Lindemann.
of Manchester, whose body was found at
the time in ravine near San Reno At
first it was thought to be suicide, but in
vestigation brought out the fact that it
was murder. It now appears the police
allowed the suicide or accident theoryto get
abroad in order to better enable them to
follow QUIT he real theory-that Of murder.
1t was thought likely the murderer or
murderers upon hearing that the authori-
ties Of San Reno had arrived at the con-
clusion that the English physicians death
was caused by accident or suicide, would
relax their vigilance and thus fall more
readily into the hands of justice
From the moment the DOCTORS body was
found the authorities of San Reno never
ceased their investigation, and gradually
wove a net of evidence around the sus-
pected ones, which resulted yesterday in
the arrest here of the man and woman who
are charged with the crime. The woman,
it appears, lured the doctor to the lodgings
she occupied at San Reno. They CON

the man and woman in custody may have
other similar crimes charged against them.

THE CAR is DEAD.
A Scene Of. Wild Excitement
Follows
The Announcement of the Adjournment OF
Congress in the New York Stock Exchange
Better Times Anticipated.

Especial to THE HERALD-Examiner Dispatch
NEW YORK, March 5.-There was a
strange scene on the floor of the New York
stock exchange yesterday when the final
adjournment of the Fifty first Congress
was announced. At noon crowd had
gathered about the chairman,s rostrum
and waited with suppressed excitement for
the announcement to be made. Chairman
Mitchell saw that something unusual was
about to take place, so he quietly stepped
on the rostrum, T. B. Williams thereupon
went upon the platform carrying his watch
in his hand. The crowd waited with
patience until Mr.. Williams raised his
hand and said: Congress has adjourned"
A scene of wild excitement followed.
One long yell rang through the vaulted
chamber. Men danced, shook hands, slap
ped each other on the back and shouted for
delight. The cry went up and was caught
by hundreds of lips: 1.-THE car is d ,ad :;
the car is dead" The outcry was heard
out on Wall street and on Broad street.
ana brokers' not already present went
trooplng into the stock exchange to take
part IN the publication. 1t was some time
before the demonstration was ended.
There was no mistaking the utter salts
faction of those members of the exchange
who took part in the noisy and altogether
unique demonstration. IL was not alone
the adjournment of Congress that pleased
the brokers, but the deposition of Speaker
Reed created the liveliest joy
1t is we'll known there has been no love
lost between the last Congress and Wall
street. Ever since that legislative body has
been IN session, Wall street has groaned. 1t
has regarded the Congress just closed, with
It's tariff tlnkering, its silver bills, and it's
financial measures, as menace and stand
ing threat to the financial interests of the
country. For weeks past the dull, drag
g1ng market has been attributed to the un.
certainty regarding Congress- action on
hnanclal as well as political measures, and
the belief was expressed that matters would
not mend until final adjournment was ac-
complished. The demonstration on the ex-
change was an expression of the feeling
that SO largely prevailed on the street A
prominent broker said that while he did not
regard the exhibition on the floor of the ex-
change as in the best taste, it was, never
theless, an expression of feeling very
largely shared in by Wall street people.
This Congress-" he continued, "seems to
have been peculiarly unfortunate in array
ing capital against it. 1t has provoked dis
trust. The force bill would have created
discord between the north and south and
would in measure at least have checked
the financial interests of the two sections

Radical Argentine Revenue Laws.

WAsHlNGToN, March 5.-The bureau of
American republics is informed that the
president of the Argentine republic has
recommended to congress several radical
revenue laws which have created bitter en-
nifty against the administration in COM
mercial circles. The president in his mes
sage, holds that such measures are abso
lutely necessary to maintain the credit of
the government and asks their endorsement
by congress, but congress has not yet rati
fed the suggestion. He proposes first to
impose an export duty Of per cent. ad
valorem upon animal oil, horns, ierked beef,
bone ash, horse hair, hides and skins,
bones, wool, tallow and ostrich feathers,
which constitute the great bulk of the ex-
ports of the Argentine republic 1t is also
proposed to materially increase the import
tariff and impose license on vessels under
foreign flag in the coast
trade. Another decree recommends
license tax of $4,000 on foreign
insurance companies and requires the de-
post of 800, 600 as q guarantee before they
may be allowed to continue business, II

Knocked Off a Railroad Track.

BELLEVUE, Idaho, March Especial
telegram to The HERALD. The seven
year-old SON Of County Commissioner
Davis was tossed off the track of the rail
road this evening by Union Pacific loco
motive pulling plough from Ketchum.
The city ordinance forbids trains to run
faster than six miles an hour as the track
passes through the center of Second street.
The locomotive was running at least
twenty five miles an hour and the boy was
seriously hurt. Action will probably be
taken to impress the railroad company with
the necessity of paying some little atten-
ton to the ordinance governing the speed
of trains within the city limits.
