The "Rlpper'sy Victim.


SALEM, Mass, April 27-Jack the RipA
per's American victim is still remembered
In Salem. Her story is one Of the saddest
ever penned. She was born in Liverpool,
England, in 1892 As girl she was known
as Caroline Montgomery. She landed with
her parents at New York and settled with
them when still child Ia Brooklyn, N. ",
where she grew into a pretty girl There
she met Captain James Brown, OF this
city. He was but eighteen years old when
he married her. Her husband brought her
TO Salem
After happy married life Of five years D
little girl was born to them, and subse
quently a second child, also a girl, and
later a son.
Mrs. Brown had been married some ten
years when she began to manifest an un
fortunate desire for intoxicating liquor
In spite Of all that husband and frie.ds
could say or do her appetite Increase C
rapidly that her whole character ,sAs
changed and debased.
Captain Brown entered the navy and
served his country faithfully White IN
command of the brig Elizabeth or ne
Gold coast he was stricken down Nl4a
African fever and died BY his will lie
left his wife dollar and the balance OF his
estate to his two daughters.
Captain Brown had made complies
separation from his wife some years before.
Nearly fifteen years ago she came back r.
Salem and enteree the service of a retires
sea captain as a domestic. At that time
strong hopes were entertained Of her TO
demption from life Of sin. At one time
it was thought that she had rallied, bus
she suddenly fell. She went back TO New
York, and she was heard from at different
times as leading wild life Of dissipation.

PITTsBURe, April s7.-The agreement OF
the Hooking valley (O) miners TO work
this year at the present rates and nine
hours a day will break the back Of the
eight hour movement Of the miners this
year. 1t Is expected this settlement will
compel the remaining Ohio miners to &C
cept similar terms. All the officers Of the
United Mine Workers association, who
represent all the bituminous coal miners
in the Unite1 States, after careful sur.
vey Of the field, will busy themselves now
to secure a continuance Of work at present
rates and such hours as can be agreed
upon without a strike. This conclusion
was only arrived Ht after a careful survey
Of the whole field
A prominent miners official said today
''The gravity Of the situation requires the
best counsels Of our leaders The apathy
which the American Federation OF Labor
and the general executive board Of the
Knights of Labor have displayed toward
the strikers in the coke region Is causing
apprehension, A strike Of the magnitude
contemplated on May cannot be con
Quoted without enormous expense. With
all the talk it is questionable if the miners
would receive one dollar to the hundreds
promised them. An orderly retreat Is
much better than a disastrous defeat.

THE DEAD WARRIOR.
Thousands view the Face OF General vor
MnliLa-


Moltke.
BERLIN, April 27.-From noon until 5
Sunday the public were admitted to see the
body OF Count Won Moltke lying in state
in the ballroom Of the staff headquarters
building. Thousands viewed theremains
The body was covered to the breast with a
coyerlet of white silk, wrought with silver
designed by Moltke himself for the pur-
pose to which it was put DR.. Beuster
embalmed the remains. The kaiser has
ordered mourning in the army for eight
days and in Moltke's regiments for from
twelve TO fourteen days.
Prince Henry has cut short his hunting
expedition since the news Of the death Of
Moltke, and the count is displaying as
much evidence Of mourning as if the dead
general had been a member Of the imperial
family.
The kaiser proposes to give the great
commander funeral that will refute
Prince Bismarck's recent accusation OF
imperial ingratitude TO those who have
served the house of Hohenzollern. The
principal generals have already been grant
ed permission to absent themselves from
their commands during the funeral cele-
bration, and all the members of ruling
houses in Germany holding rank in the
army are expected to be present. Whether
Prince Bismarck will be invited is in
doubt. It is believed, however, that a
prominent place In the cortege will be re-
served for him in common with other ex-
ministers of Prussia and of the empire.
Moltke and Bismarck, it is known, were
not especially friendly, the ex-chancellor
having always regarded with some jeal-
ousy the influence Of the commander
Moltke was not a man of large wealth.
and is said TO have expended considerable
money in charities to poor army officers
whose misfortunes were brought to his at
tention, and TO whom he often leaned
without any expectation Of return.

Poison Was Sent to Her by Mail in a

DENVER, April a. The poisonous liquid
which caused the death of Mrs Barnaby,
of Providence, in this city Sunday, has
been found TO be simply water, colored
with some organic matter, and containing
two grains Of arsenic to the ounce, instead
Of whisky, as was at first suspected. On
the evening set for the shipment Of the
remains to her home in Providence a gen
tleman named DR. Thatcher Graves, Of
Providence, arrived in this city.
DIR. Graves has been the confidential ad-
wiser Of Mrs. Barnaby during her lifetime.
He had been interested in the manage
ment OF her affairs He alone knew the
condition Of them. 1t is rumored by some
that be viii benefit by her death, but this
is mere conjecture. She is said to have
made a will about six months ago, but
DR.. Graves denies all knowledge Of it, Ii
is probable that this will will throw new
light on the affair.
Mrs Barnaby came west for her health
some months ago, and while here became
acquainted with Mrs. +. S. Warner. The
two ladies later decided to make trip to
California. They returned from this trip
on April Q both much improved in health.
On her return Mrs. Barnaby found await
ing her package, which bore the Boston
postmark On opening the package she
found a small flask, with note reading,
with best wishes, accept this fine old
whisky from your friends in the woods y
She had no idea from whom the flask
came and it was put away with no thought
but that it was all right. Some days later,
after trip into the mountains, the two
ladies were much fatigued aud were chilled
through, so they decided to try some OF
the whisky They drank from the flask,
Mrs. Barnaby died in awful agony and

board Of the United Mine Workers is in
session considering the matter Of the de-
mand made by the miners for an eight
hour day on May l. BY arrangement the
presidents Of the local assemblies in Illi-
nois, Indiana, Ohio and Pennsylvania ap-
peared before the board and made reports
as 70 the attitude and feelingof the miners
they represent as to the matter. With the
exception of the Strnitsvtlle district OF
Ohio, where the miners have signed con
tracts 70 work for the year on the nine
hour SYSTEM the reports indicate tirmness
on the part Of the miners for the eight
hour day, even to general strike to en-
force Il.
II further reports continue as unani-
mously in favor o. the eight hour day and a
strike TO secure It, President Rea will Is.
sue an order TO that effect. The stlike, IL
IL occurs, will be stnpendous, stopping an
coal mining in the eastern part OF the
