COWARDICE And BRUTALITY
THE STORY OF M'AULlFFE'S MID
NIGHT ADVENTURE.

Attacking Manager Benton in His Hotel
Room the PrIzehghter, Like Crazy
Man, Bangs Him Around Like Toy.
NEW YORK, Dec 27.-R. H Benton,
sporting editor of the Boston Globe and
former backer of Jack McAuliffe, arrived
in this city last Saturday from England
accompanied by John Haggerty, an
English swimmer. Benton is now man
ager for Dick Burge, the English pug
list and came here to arrange a match
between him and MsAuliffe.
While Benton was fnancier for Nc.
Auliffe it appears they had some mis-
understanding. Benton looked about
for man to pit against Jack, and fell
across Burge. When McAuliffe learned
that his backer had thrown him over. he
became sore and at various times, it is
said, threatened to get even. His oppor-
tunity came last night. Benton and
Haggerty had retired about 80 and
We're chatting in bed for some time when
a hall boy raped at the door and handed
Benton a card which read: "Come down
stairs, l want to see you-Jack Nc
Auliffe.
Benton sent down word that he was in
bed but that he would be pleased to
receive the caller in his room. McAuliffe
at first refused to go upstairs but Ed
Stoddard, a man about town who accom-
panied McAuliffe urged him to accept the
invitation, whereupon they went up

bed. ready to welcome his old friend

Brutal and UncalIed For.
McAuliffe walked straight to where
Benton was, and, without warning,
struck him a severe blow over the left arm
with heavy cane he carried and then
began to bang him right and left Stod-
dard stood at the door and when Benton
made an outcry he locked the door. Nc.
Auliffe, encouraged, knocked Benton upon
the floor and began kicking him about
the head and body. The uproar caused
a commotion among the guests in the
hotel and they began to flock to the
room.
Thrown Out bv Policeman.
Policeman Fitzgibbons happened to be
passing the hotel at the time and was
called in. He gained an entrance to the
room and separated the fighter from his
toy. Benton refused to enter complaint
so the officer could do nothing but take
McAuliffe from the place. Haggerty
during all this time got at a good dis
tance from McAuliffe's reach. McAuliff'

CLOUDS OF SUSPICION.
Baron de Reinach Poisoned BY
Arch-Conspirators.
APOPLEXY DID NOT CAUSE DEATH

Another Distressing Revelation Connected
With the Panama scandal-Ihe De-
ceased's Family Hears the Post-aIortem
Result and Demands an Investigation.
PARIS, Dec. 27-In the greater excite
ment attending the proceedings in the
Chamber of Deputies and the revelations
compromising so many prominent men
in the Panama canal scandal, sight has
been lost, to certain extent. of the
autopsy of Baron de Reinach. whose
mysterious death has been attributed to
various causes-apoplexy, suicide and
murder. The government having charge
of the examination, it is consequently
slow and attended with great secrecy.
Figaro to-day states, however, that it
has information to the effect that the
doctor who had charge of the post
mortem examination has reported to the
government that apoplexy was not the
cause of the baron's death. His report,
the Figaro adds, says that the baron was
poisoned and that the poison was taken
into his stomach eight hours before
death. The Figaro further says that the
family of Baron de Reinach are aware Of
the contents of the report and have de-
manded that judicial INJURY be had to
prove that the baron did not commit
suicide
1t has been more than limited that
Baron de Reinach was put out of the way
by those who feared that his evidence
might iInplicate them in the scandal. If
it is true that the poison was in his stom-
ach eight hours before his death there
would be good reason to believe that this
terrible charge against certain men is
true, for on the night of the baron's
death he, together with M. Rouvier and
M. Clemenceau attempted to secure ces-
sation of the newspaper attacks that were
being made upon him.
1t is not at all probable that had Baron
de Reinach contemplated suicide he would
have gone to the table to attempt to stop
attacks that in few hours would have
been nothing to him and neither would
he have displayed such deep feeling as to
the result of the attack Horrible as it
may seem there is no denying the fact
that some of those implicated in the
scandal would have felt greatly relieved
If Baron de Reinach was dead and beyond
giving evidence that would besmirch
their heretofore good names. The fact
that the baron's death was linked to the
sudden and mysterious deaths
of Two other men who were
cognizant of the bribery of leg
islators gives added strength to the
demand of the baron's family that an
inquiry be held to place the RESPONSE
bility for his death where it belongs.
lie Gaulois has an interview to-day
with NJ. Andrieux, the former prefect Of
police, who in the course of the inter
view. associated the Baron de Reinach' S
death with an attempt made two years
ago to poison Dr. Cornelius Herr. These
articles have re awakened interest in the
matter and the official report of the
result Of the autopsy is eagerly awaited.

AMBITIOUS RUSSIANS.
The Fretting Warriors, Not Satisfied
with Nihlistie strife, Think the Gar
too Paoihc-They Want Blood.

With Nihilistic strife, Think the Czar
too Pacifc-They Want Blood.
ST. PETERSBURG, Dec. 27.-Numerous
arrests continue to be made at Kieif Of
persons suspected of Nihilism. Nine
more.otiicers are among those imprisoned
either under suspicion or direct charges
of connection with a conspiracy against
the Gar. The Russian authorities believe
that they have unearthed a widespread
plot in which a number not only of the
lower officials but also those Of higher
rank are involved and several officers
having positions of trust and confidence
near the person of the Car have been
put under surveillance, although not
under arrest, being granted leave Of
absence from duty until the suspicious
resting upon them are verified or disap
proved.
There is much discomfort in the army
with the prolonged period of peace and
many of the officers think that the
Gar is too pacific in his disposition
There is no longer an outlet for these
warlilSe spirits in subduing the tribes of
Central Asia, all these having been
brought thoroughly under Russian sub.
lection. The Russian empire was never
more peaceable, so far as external enemies
are concerned, the murmuring among the
army officers, ambitious for glory and
disappointed in their hopes of promotion
is correspondingly great II is no secret
that there was bitter disappointment in
military circles seven years ago, when
the Gar had to bring his ahtocratic
authority TO bear TO prevent his generals
from plunging into a war with Great
Britain and Afghanistan, and the spirit
Of impatience among the Russian officers
has been increasing since.
For these aud other reasons the
authorities at st. Petersburg are greatly
apprehensive as TO the extent of the
conspiracy developed at Kieh and much
excitement prevails both in official cir
cles and among the public. Meantime
the persecution of the Jews goes on
more earnestly than ever, the leading
official prosecutor being the Grand Duke
Sergius, brother of the Gar and hus.
baud of Queen Yictoria's granddaughter,
Elizabeth. AS governor Of Moscow he
seems determined 20 turn every jew out
of the city. The Jewish population of
Moscow has already been reduced from
about so, 000, when Sergius became gov
ernor, TO about 30,0l0 and the number
continues to decrease under the added
rigor of penal laws and the intolerable
severity Of their enforcement.

MILWAUKEE, Wis, Dec. 27.-The VIII

Brothers. located at the foot of Sherman
street, is burning and promise to be a
total loss. Already the plant Of
Conrad Brothers is completely wrapped
in flames, while nothing remains Of the
Becker tannery save the Office and ware

Like all the fires of late it was attended
with fatality. One fireman is dead

The plant of the William Becker Com

that of Conrad Brothers, as stated by the
senior member of the firm, at $400, 0O0
Both are partly insured
Two minutes before 8 o'clock Gustave
rrostel, of the Trostel tannery, adjoining
the burned buildings saw the flames
bursting from the second story of one of
the Becker tannery buildings and turned
in the alarm over his private wires.
When the companies arrived the
main building of the Becker plant
was enveloped in flames, and a general
alarm was turned in, and in a short time
all of the apparatus of the city was on
hand. Famed by a fresh southwest
wind, the fire burned briskly. The fire.
men were seriously handicapped by the
fire in the rear of the building from which
they were shut off by the river.
Firemen working Under Difficulties.
The fire tug Cataract had a difficult
time in blowing through the thick ice,

time the fire was reached the flames had

The latter building was filled with fire
men working on the Becker buildings So
quickly did the flames spread that those
at work in the upper story were cut off
from escape. Many of the firemen

Dr. McGlynn Can Choose Either BaIti-
more or st. Paul.
A New York despatch says DIR Ed
ward McGlynn, the celebrated New York
priest, who was last week restored to his
priestly functions by the papal ablegate,
Mgr Satolli, will, in all probability. be
under the jurisdiction of either Cardinal
Gibbons, in the Baltimore diocese or Of
Archbishop Ireland, of st. Pauls diocese.
There is little likelihood that the restored
priest will be ever stationed again IN this
diocese, and, according to a prominent
ecclesiastical friend of Dr. McGlynn, he
las the choice Of the above two dioceses
under consideration.
Dr. McGlynn yesterday morning abso-
lutely declined to discuss the prospec-
tive field in which he expects to resume
his priestly labors and, when spoken to
in relation TO any supposed apology
made as the condition of his restoration,
rather iouted the idea Of there having
been any conditions proposed or ac-
cepted Some concern has been ex-
pressed as to the fate Of those persons
who turned their backs upon the church
and followed DR.. McGlynn. Archbishop
Corrigan to-day said that such persons
would be given absolution if they ap-
piled for It, DR.. McGlynn's restoration
didn't affect their cases favorably or
otherwise. Burial in consecrated ground
has been refused some dead followers Of
the deposed priest, but it is believed that
all such objections may now be removed
by proper conduct on the part of the
surviving relations and friends.

of the Cunard steamer Umbria. which

II for Queen stown, sailing from
Queenstown for New York on

been out from Queenstown, about nine

Of what was expected. The great storms
on the Atlantic may, it is thought, have

delicacies adorned the tables at which
