A SHAMELESS SCENE.
Pittsburg Toughs blob n Chinese Fun eral
and Rob the Grave.

PTrsBURG, Pa, March 29.-The China
men of Pittsburg, contrary to the
general belief in regard TO their
burials, do not send their dead to
China, but own neat lot in
Union Dale cemetery, in which they
are inferred. This afternoon one OF their
number, Jeu Seu, was buried with every
rite and observance attending Chinese
obsequies. Jeu Seu was a high Mason
and n long procession of Cclcstials fol-
lowed the remains to the grave.
Here a most disgraceiul scene ensued,
brought about by about 500 caucassiOns,
who had trampled over graves, torn down
shrubbery and jostlcd the timid mourners
in order to crafty their curiosity.
The chinese reverently placed burning
joss sticks periumed paper and prlnteg
prayers beside the grave only TO have
them almost snatched out OF their hands
by the excited mob. They also wrapped
small coins in paper and scattered
them on and in the grave
but boys and men snatched them up and
fought fiercely for possession OF the Curl
Gus mementos. Cat calls, jeers and howls
from the vulgar crowd added to q shame
less scene that Pittsburg heartily con-
demns, the excuse being that the riotious
crowd was only made up of the idle,
vulgar and lawless.

BERLIN, March 31.-The Cologne Gu
Eette, commenting upon the murder of NJ
Beltchef, the Bulgarian minister OF
finance, says today: 'The importance of
the Beltchef murder is enhanced by the
coincidence that the new agitation in Bull
garia has been traced to the Russians and
the fact that papers related to the French
foreign Office declare that the mandate
which the Constantinople conference
granted TO Prince Alexander, the deposed
ruler of Bulgaria, can't be continued to
Prince Ferdinand. the present ruler of the
country"
II is re Jorted that a note has been is
sued by NJ. De Giers. the Russian secretary
of state for foreign affairs, forerunning the
intention Of Russia TO intervene in the
Balkans.
This circumstance, says the Cologne
GGzctte, combined with the demonstrative
massing of Russian troops on the Austrian
frontier, is looked upon as a sign of the
approach of critical days in eastern Eu-
rope.
The Pesther Lloyd, discussing the same
situation Of affairs, says: "We stand at
the beginning of another great movement

A SENSATIONAL ARREST.
Bold Attempt Mt Jury I5ribing Exposed in
Chicago Court.

CnlcogO court.
CHICAGO, March 30-A bold attempt at
jury bribing in a $4,000 damage case
against the Yerkes cable street railway
was exposed in Judge McConneli's court
today. The accused jury fixers are J. j.
Hopper and NJ. c. Shannon, two real estate
brokers. Hopper admitted his guilt but
Shannon denied all knowledge of the
crime, though admitting acquaintance
with Hopper and having talked with the
latter since the trial began.
1t appeared from Hopper's confession
that after Shannon was selected Juror
Hopper went to the claim agent OF the
street railway company and offered to Sc
cure a verdict in favor of the company or
a disagreement for $500. The claim agent
pretended to accept and had Hopper
shadowed from the moment he lett the
company's office. The arrests were made
just when the jury was retiring 10 con-
slider verdict. peculiar signal was said
by Hopper to have been agreed upon 10

by the defendant corporation for a corrupt
verdict. II the money was on hand

and take drink at the water cooler and
slowly wipe off his chin.

Toledo Is Don Miguel Plya V. Rico, and
the preientious seals ere probably not
counterfeits, but extemp oraneous designs.
The last communication on the subject
which has reached the d, partment of state
is from an attorney at lsw in Nebraska.
He gives a notification OF the scheme
which was attempted in 1882. In this
case pretended catholic priest had learn
ed at the confessional that prisoner con-
demned for theft from TIE queen OF Spain
(there is always an insinuation OF the
manner in which the bogus treasure was
come by) had died leaving concealed in
America a large amount of money. of
which a considerable part he wished to
leave TO banker in Nebraska, ii the latter
would act as his executor. This particu-
lar banker showed the letter to the lawyer,
who investigated the matter and saved
the loss OF money.
The attempt was renewed last Novem-
Der upon another banker OF the same city.
The old story was again modified; the
names were changed and the place of
writing was Valencia instead of Balboa,
but the handwriting was the same as in
the first case. The documents consisted
of a forged exemplification Of the will, a
forged certificate OF the clerk OF the court
and other papers. These also fell into
the hands of the same attorney and he led
the parties along in correspondence,
while he in the meantime notified the
American minister in Spain and the chief
OF police OF Valencia, urging the authorl-
ties to act

PHENOMENAL FOX CHASE.
a Run that Lasted Twenty-Threo Hours
Consecutiyely.

Consecutively.
WHEELING, w. Va, March 30.-The
longest fox chase on record took place
Friday among the Cheat mountains.
Marshal Crow and party of friends with
seven hounds started fox at Mixers
Rocks, two miles below MOrgantown. at
o'clock Friday morning. The fox was
well grown and had good speed from the
start. He took a heading direct for
Cheat mountain, as the highest peak of
the range is known, and was followed
closely by the entire pack of hounds in
full cry. Three hours later the fox and
hounds passed the home of Reese Swind-
Ter, near Cheat river, about fourteen miles
from the starting point, the foremost dog
being about thirty yards behind.
Swindier is fox hunter and has large
pack OF hounds. He loosed four of them
and allowed them to join in the chase and
they being fresh were soon within a
hundred Yards of the fox. Reynard
doubled his track on them, however, and
was soon out OF sight.
Nothing more was seen of the fox and
hounds till the next morning at S o'clock,
when some timber men working on Cheat
river at Beaver Hole, more than sixty
miles from the point of starting heard the
pack coming mp the valley IN -fJIl. cry. In
q few minutes they were in sight. The
fox was leading only by few yards and
the foremost hound was coming up on
him. The other dogs were still close and
were fairly in the chase. The fox seemed
to be almost done out and
turned toward the lumbermen as if
to secure protection from his pursuers,
but just as he came within a stones
throw of the camp the foremost hound
caught him by the neck. and in minute
he was Dead. The other dogs came up in
time to assist in the killing. After the fox
was dead and the excitement that had
urged the dogs on in the chase had passed,
all the dogs lay down on the ground and
could not be induced to move, so COM
pletely exhausted we're they.
Three of the dogs that started in the
chase failed TO show up at the killing, and
have not been seen since. They are sup
posed to be in the forest somewhere worn
out and possibly dead.
The chase lasted about twenty-three
hours, and is the longest ever heard of
in West Virginia. The distance travelled
cannot, of course, be known, but it is said
by those acquainted with the passes in the
mountains and the direction the fox
would probably take that it must have
travelled at least $50 miles in the twenty
three hours.

CRY OF MEXICO March 29.-The foreign
Office has published a table showing the
number OF foreigners naturalized here
since 1928, and it will occasion some sur
prise that the total in sixty-three years
should not have exceeded 2,044. OF this
number !, ,147 were Spaniards. Other ma

The greatest number of persons natur-
allied in any one year was in 1874, when
237 took out papers. Very few French
men were naturalized during the period
of the empire. and no Austrians. Since
Gen. Diaz became president the average
number OF foreigners yearly becoming cit
izens has been higher than any previous
period in the history Of the republic.

A DANGEROUS COUNTERFEIT.
The New Two-DolIar Note One OF the Mos
Perfect Ever Known.

Inc NOW AWo-DOllHr y Ote One OF tno mOGs
Perfect Ever Known.
The secret service officers declare the
counterfeit wo-ae4lar--eertiRcate ansost
dangerous one. The vignette OF Hancock
is as fine as the original, and the lettering
and lathe work is an exact copy of the
treasury note. In fact. the only difference
is too minute to be visible to the naked
eye. In the upper left hand and lower
right hand corner of the genuine note is a
figure 2, and on its face is engraved in
characters so minute that they arc not
legible except under magnijying glass
the word two" repeated three times. In
the counterfeit the word two" is similarly
engraved the same number OF times, but
in two cases the counterfeiter has 1made
the letters read "owt." But as intimated.
this mistake is not visible without the use
of a glass.
The discovery of the counterfeit is not
a new thing. Attention WAS called to it
some time ago and has been ca led to it at
frequent intervals since it appeared. but
the unknown counterfeiters watch the Sc
cret service bulletins closely. When 4
discrepancy was discovered in n note
bearing the check letter a." and the
signature of c. n. Jordan, the counter
feiters changed the check letter to "B"
and the name to that OF Treasurer Hyatt.
In this case however, they left a mark
whereby the counterfeit is more easily
identified, for the lower half of the capi-
tai 81" in Jordon was so entwined with
the border of the note that it could not
be erased when the name was blotted out.
But even this line cannot be seen unless
attention is attracted TO it.
Altogether the counterfeit is fully as
dangerous as represented, and the entire
! circulation of the genuine issue may have
to be called in. Some years ago. n S. ma
tional bank note was so successfully
counterfeited that the genuine notes were
often refused when they should have
been accepted, and finally the entire issue
had to be called in.
