POPE LEo's MODE OF LIFE.
Although Eighty-Two Years Old, His
Health Bellies All Rumors.

Health Bellies All Rumors.
The pope was eighty-two years of age
on March 2. Leo XIII. has now occu-
pied the chair of st. Peter for fourteen
years, and although there have been
many rumors of the unsatisfactory state
of his health lately there seems to be no
good reason why he should not occupy it
for a good many years longer, says the
Pail Mall Budget. His holiness mode
of life is of the simplest. He usually
rises at 6 o'clock in the morning, offers
the sacrifice of the mass and then be-
gins his working day.
For breakfast he has a single glass of
coffee, tea or milk, and after going
through his papers begins to receive
about nine. From that hour till one in
the afternoon the throng of visitors
W slackens. He then returns to his
papers and his books until three, when
he dimes.
The dinner of his holiness is of the
same frugal character as his breakfast
"a little soup, two courses of meat
with vegetables, and dessert Of fruit,
with one glass of wine. After dinner
he goes out for a drive or "a walk in the
gardens of the vatican. He afterward
resumes his papers. Between nine and
ten o'clock all the papal household as
semble for the rosary and then retire to
rest.
Although the pope wears spectacles
when reading his eyesight continues
very good. When he was a young man
he was very shortsighted, but as he
grew older his sight became better, and
at seventy it was better than
when he was twenty years of age. A
bon mot of his holiness at last Christ
mas reception may not have been for
gotten. 1t vas addressed to Cardinal
Parrocchi, who is believed in many
quarters to be heir-presumptive to the
chair of st. Peter. When the cardinal
had wished him a happy new year the
pope said, with a twinkle in his
eye: 'Thank you, thank you, your
e%minence; l hope to be still here on
the eve of next year to receive once
more your sincere congratulations"

The New Law Regarding Labor in Mani

featuring establishments.
ALBANY, May 19.-An important bill
just signed by the Governor is the
measure known as can act regulating
the employment of women and children
which is in fact a codihcation of all the
laws governing the department of the
State Factory Inspector. Under its pro
visions no person under IS years of G
or no woman under 81 shall be required,
permitted or suffered to work more than
go hours in one week.
No person under Is years of age and
no woman under 81 years of age shall he
allowed to run machinery. Not less
than 60 minutes shall be allowed for the
noon day meal except in cases where a
shorter period is allowed by the factory
inspector. The inspector is allowed TO
inspect all building and inquire into it's
workings, and in case the officials Of any
factory refuse to give information or
obstruct or prevent such inspection,
they shall be guilty of a misdemeanor,
punishable by fine.
1t strikes a fatal blow at the sweat
shop system, in that it allows families
to work at any particular occupation in
their own houses, but 1t forbids the en-
ployment of others. 1t deals directly
with the construction of the rooms in
factories and provides that not less than
250 cubic feet of air space shall be al
lowed for each person employed during
the day, nor less than 400 for any per-
son during the night.
1t increases the power of the factory
inspector in regard to the construction
of elevators, and allows them to use
their discretion in certain cases. 1t also
makes the foreman liable in case where
the law is violated in regard to minors.

Big shipment of Cattle from Boston.

Boston, May 10 The largest single
shipment of live cattle that ever left an
American port has just sailed from
Boston on board the steamer Ottoman, of
the Warren line. There were 1, 1863 head
of steers, averaging 1878 pounds each,
all shipped by n party and consigned
to one party. The cattle came from
Nebraska, and the rate of freight to
Boston was the same as it would have
been to New York. The rate from
Boston to Liverpool is understood to be
higher than the current rates from New
York, but that advantage is offset by
Boston's being one days sail nearer
Liverpool.

Maverick Bank Ahalrs.

Boston, May 19.-The statement from
Washington that the Maverick Bank
would probably pay 100 cents and inter
est is not generally believed here. The
claims to be proved amount to about
81, 700, 00O. The receiver yesterday de-
posted at the Sub-Treasury $50, 900 on
account of the creditors of the bank,
making the total amount deposited since
the bank failed So, 907, 1863. The amount
on balance after paying rs per cent. div
idends declared, is over 1855 200. This
is not quite sufficient to pay the next
dividend, which will probably be 8 per
cent

JACK THE SHOOTER NOW
A Fiend Kills Four Women al
Denison, Tex.
TWO OF THEM SOCIETY LEADERS

The Crimes Committed But a Few Hours
A~part--Armed Men Hunting for the
Observation-Disclosures Suspended and Ex-
element Intense.
DENIsoN, Tex, May 10.-The greatest
excitement prevails here over the horror
which took place early yesterday morn
ing, when an unknown assassin pre-
meditately shot and killed four women,
two of them the leading ladies of the
city, and two members of disreputable
houses.
The first victim was Mrs. Haynes, wife
of DR.. Henry Haynes, one of Denison's
most respected citizens, and a gentle
man prominent in his business and So
cial life. Mrs. Haynes, a young and at
t~ractive woman, was assassinated either
while alone in her home or else was for
chilly taken from the same and put to
death by her captor outside and near the
house. Mrs. Haynes was killed in the
absence of her husband at Elk Lodge,
and the murderer took her gold watch
and diamond ring.
He next went to Mrs. Hawley's house
and killed her daughter, Miss Teen, a
beautiful young girl. She was seated on
a bed with her mother when the bullet
crashed through the screen door. The
murderer had first entered the girls
bedroom, when she fed to her mothers
bedroom.
He next went to Mrs. Rivers bagnio and
fired through a window from the front
porch, killing Maude Kramer. He
then crossed the street to Lester's and
in similar manner shot and mortally
wounded Rose Stewart, the ball passing
clear through her body, entering under
the right arm.
All business is suspended here to-day,
and a thousand armed men are in pur
suit of the criminal. Dozens of arrests
have been made, but the real culprit il
believed to be still at large.

DEFINING WILL NOT BE REsPITED.
Victoria's Governor Refuses to Interfere
The Execution Next Monday.


MELBOURNE, May 19.-The Earl of
Hopetoun, Governor of Victoria, has re-
fused TO postpone the execution of the
murderer, Frederick Bailey Deeming,
which is set down for Monday next. The
news has not yet been communicated to
Deeming, who had entertained hopes
that his appeal for a respite, on the
ground Of not being responsible for his
actions, would be successful.
Deeming has told the prison officials
that his mothers spirit is now urging
him to kill Miss Rounsevell. de is be-
coming very quiet and downcast, but
eats heartily and is permitted to smoke.
He will continue writing constantly
his biography, and has dealt at great
length with the incidents at Rainhill.
The Governor of the jail, however,
describes Deeming's statements as very
incoherent, and, to a great extent, a
repetition Of his speech in court on the
concluding day Of the trial.
Deeming has declared his intention to
kill himself, if he gets a chance, and for
this reason he is closely watched.
Preparations are already being made
for the execution, which will be con-
Quoted as quietly as possible. The
authorities are considering whether it
will be best to take Deeming to the gal
lows in irons, as it is feared, owing to
the desperate and malignant character
of the man, that, if allowed any oppor-
tunity, he may try to injure someone
of the attendants at the execution,

Perry VIII Make a FIrht.

LYONS, N. Y, May 19.-Oliver Curtis
Perry has retained Charles Ray as his
counsel. This looks as If he means to
fight if indicted by the grand jury and

opportunities occur or flaws appear in

retain Edison Hamm, who was his attor-
ney in instituting proceedings against
the exhibitors who had him exhibited in
wax, is a mystery.

For once, Inspector Byrnes seems
to have done a good piece of legiti-
mate police work in the capture of
Dowd, the slasher. But, as usual, he
applied the Star Chamber process TO
extort a confession from the wretched
man. Byrnes, above all people, has
practised this outrageous abuse of
law and authority. In this case there
was no excuse for the proceeding. The
man was caught red-handsd in his
crime. The only purpose of the in
quisitorial proceeding was to enhance
the glory OF Byrnes. The Courts
should assert the true principles of
law and sit down on this exaggerated
police Snowman.
II IL merciful Providence would
take Byrnes along with Anthony
Comstock and Elbridge 4. Gerry to
their reward at an early day. it would
be great relief to a world which has
grown too small to accommodate their
heads.

The Facts About Dalton.

The sun had another inebriate story
about Dalton yesterday. The detec-
tive was so thoroughly drunk that he
had to be put in two asylums. This,
as will readily be seen, is almost a
physical impossibility. 1t might be
accomplished by putting a man into
one asylum and then building a
second structure about the first.
but even reckless and extrava-
giant California would hardly go
to that expense, even to keep so
valuable a man as Dalton. The Sun
has been ~misinformed. Dalton was
not put in two asylums at once, but
while in the first he was taken with q
chill and vibrated so vigorously tina t
he shook the asylum down. He was
then placed in the custody of Hyer
and his lawyer, and they held him un-
til a new asylum was built. These
are the facts of the case, and the Sun
is welcome to them.

A BLIND SUGAR POOL.
Brokers Smile at Mr.. Havemeyer's
Childlike Explanation.

Apropos to the issue of $25, 000, 600 oil
new Sugar Trust bonds. discussed at the
meeting held in this city last week, the
Philadelphia Press of today has the fol
lowing Dispatch
THE announcement that the Sugar
Trust. which is now legalizad as a cor
poration. has voted to increase its capital
stock by SOS, 000, 900 has set the broker $
to talking. Mr.. Henry HaveneYer in
the longest interview which he has
ever cared TO give to the press, asserts
that this little matter of millions is
issued so that the sugar people can get
control of the rs per cent. of the trade
which it lost when the trust was de-
clared illegal and the corporation was
organized. According TO this timat il
will cost 81 600. 600 for each l per cent. of
that lost trade which it expects to regain.
The brokers wear the smile of suspicion
as they discuss this explanation, and they
say that the sugar people are going to use
this stock SO that they may play with the
market. A broker who has some
knowledge of the diDlomacies of the
Stock Exchange said this morning that
there had never been an organization of
capital whose securities We're listed in
Wall street which had played so success
fully the magician's game, Il he added,
''of course, If anybody wants me to buy
or sell sugars for them FL do it, but
they'll have to put up a pretty stiff
margin, even il my customers should be

lard, and by Governor Cornell, but the
impression ON the street is that a bigger
mystery tina these ever were is this
sugar financial enterprise. No one ex-
cepting those on the ground floor has ever
had a hint of its secrets. Free Masonry
itself is net more hidden than has been
this concern in its internal operations. II
gives forth its reports. and it does declare

the money which pays the dividends

these speculations.
Yet people buy the securities and sell
them, knowing less of the concern thar
they do Of some of the operations of the
Paris Bourse. A good many of those who
have experimental in this way have dis
covered that while the ostensible object
of the corporation is the manufacturing
of sugar, it does not disdain reaching
out for the peoples money by means of
the Stock Exchange. Conservative
opinion is that the sugar people really in
tend by this increase of capital to absorb
or crush all rivalry. II the belief pre-
walls on Wall streea that before many
months Mr.. Spreckeis' Philadelphia re-
tiners will no longer be at odds with this
