A SENSATIONAL ARREST.
Claude Hill Jailed on a Complaint
Robert q, BrfnkIev.

Claude Hill Jailed on a Complaint of
Robert q. Brink1ey.
Claude Hill was arrested by Detective
Bosqui yesterday on warrant charging
him with embezzlement. The warrant
was sworn to by Robert G. Brinkley,
who has an interest in the Tangled Up
company. Hill WAS arrested just as he
was about boarding the afternoon train
for San Francisco. He is charged with
embezzling $89 from Mr.. Brinkiey. Only
80 and q ticket TO Saa Francisco were
found on mis- peraon. He was taken to
the central police station.
Mr.. Hill came from Memphis TO this
city last February, and has snce that
time accepted the hospitality of Mr..
Brinkley's home,sat 1923 South Pearl
street, living there during the latter's
absence. Some time ago Brinkley sent
his supposed friend $500 to be paid to
furniture dealer, De Groot. The furni-
ture dealer states that he was paid only
500.
Brinkley took his false friend to task
for not paying over the entire amount,
and on being closely questioned Hill ad-
mitted that he had not paid the $500.
= AS'AOuo w uulb hOiulcciOl, AOWCNCl3
Brinkley had sent Hill $S9, requesting
him to pay that amount to Niles Pease,
the furniture dealer of South Spring
street. 1t was for the non pay yment of
this amount that the warrant was issued
yesterday, but perhaps another warrant
will be issued today in the former case.
Brinkley and Hill were former school
mates in Memphis, Tenn, and when the
Io LSoi~ M
Brinkley took him to his own house, in
troduced him into his family, and the
false friend has been making the place
his home for several months. They had
not met for four years previously.
1t ia asserted by friends OF Mr.. Brink
ley that the present developments are
only the beginning of what will prove to
be very sensational case before it is
completed.

LONDON, Nov. 2.-An express train
from Edinburgh for London crashed
into freight near Hirsk, Yorkshire,
THE morning; a frightful wreck ensue d
and the broken cars took fire. In all
20 persons were killed and large num-
Der injured. The work of rescuing the
injured and recovering of the dead was
rendered difficult on account OF the
flames. Many bodies were burned be-
yond recognition.
The latest news this evening from the
scene of the disaster is that more bodies
have been found in the wreckage. 1t is
certain that 13 persons were killed.
Among the dead is Capt, Duncan Nc
Leod of the Forty second Highlanders,
who was on his way to Australia. The
marquis of Tweedale and the marquis of
Huntley, who were in a Pullman car,
escaped with severe shaking up. 1t is
difficult to obtain definite news from the
scene of the wreck, but the marquis of
Tweedale, who came cut on special re-
lief train, says he understands the
eignal man was asleep.
The official reports place the number
OF killed at 10. Many persons received
slight injuries and. severe shaking up.
Heartrending scenes were witnessed
after the disaster. A rescuing party
found woman pipioned beneath an
engine. She was in great agony and
screaming for help. but they were pow
erless. The flames enveloped her and
she was burned to death. The distracted
husband of the poor victim piteously
appealed to those present to save his
wife. The fire burned freely until noon,
the flames then having devoured the en-
tire wreckage. The occupants of one
carriage suffered horrible agony of mind,
as they we're solidly imprisoned and saw
the flames steadily approach the car
riage. They were rescued just in the
nick of time.
LIVERPOOL, Nov. 2.-Last night the
people on the Birkenhead ferry were

persons were killed and 30 injured.

HILL is A HARD HITTER,
THE SENATOR DOING GOOD WORE
IN THE CAMPAIGN.
Every Blow He Strikes Drives Nail in
the Republican Coffin-The Dem
ocratic View OF Federal n.
Taxation.

>PoRT JARVIS, N. Y, Nov. 2.-Senator
Hill spoke in the opera house this after
noon. Representative Democrats were
present from the surrounding country.
Senator Hill spoke in part as follows:
~The question of federal taxation is
the dominant issue of the, campaign.
The power to levy taxes is despotic. but
necessary power in every well organ
lied government. The Democratic
party believes in a strict construction of
the federal constitution; the Republi-
can party is willing to confer every pos
sibie power upon the government. The
Democrats are for confning the govern
ment to strict constitutional limits the
Republicans say taxes should be levied
for the necessary expenses OF the gov
eminent. There we agree with them.
We believe in tariff for revenue, with
incidental protection.
''Tariffs which create unnecessary
revenue are unconstitutional. l admit
that the first congress enacted r revenue
bill with q protection preamble. Con-
gress was coerced into the passage of
the bill by the opportunities of selfish
Pennsylvania. Recognizing the danger
of the precedent, and to guard against
future violations of the constitution of
the same nature. congress enacted an
amendment providing that all powers
not expressly granted to the general
government are reserved to the states.
All the tariff bills passed since that time
were passed as revenue bills, without
the recital of protective intent. Let the
Republicans be candid and throw off all
disguise, and pass bill solely and ex-
pressly for protection.
.'The cry for protection is growing
evil. Until recently it was always
deemed temporary necessity to en-
courage our infant industries. Now is
the time for this to cease. In all my
travels have not found a man whose
wages have been increased by the Nc
Kinley bill. I challenge our Republi-
can friends to show single manufac-
'tured article on which duty enough is
not left by the Mills bill to represent
the difference between American and
foreign labor" sfe
The senator read the free list of the
Mckinley bill, and argued that the
placing on the free list of the articles
mentioned did not benefit the masses.
1.-THE tariff on farm products is q
mockery," continued Hill. "The Dem
'oerats propose not free trade, but mod
crate tariff revision"
Hill made only side allusion to the
focce bill.

Coney island and Crescent City Clubs
Bidding for Big Battles.

COney Island and Crescent City Clubs
Bidding for Big Battles.
New York, Nov. 2.-The contest be-
tween the Coney Island and Crescent
City athletic clubs for match between
Bob Fitzsimlnons and Jim Hall is wax
ing warm. Judge Newton of the Coney
Island organization bid so high that
President Noel asked for further
time before deciding to make an
other offer. Which club will eventu-
ally secure the contest is uncertain,
but the odds favor the Coney islanders,
whose offer is to give Hall $780, 600 to
meet Fiizsimmons and $1,000 for ex-
penses.
Noel of the Crescent City Athletic
club said today he had heard from
Mitchell accepting Noel's offer OF $25, 900
to fight Corbett before the Crescent City
club March let, and would post $4,000
Immediately, as an evidence of his sim
cerity.
Mitchell also stated in his cablegram
to Noel that Hall had agreed to fight
Fitxsimmons before the Crescent City
club for purse of $4,000.
Noel, being asked if articles of agree
ment were forwarded to Hall and
Mitchell, said he would attend to that
tomorrow; that Fitzsimmons had
already signed, aud Corbett he would
communicate with tomorrow, and was
confident he would sign, as Jim pre-
ferred TO fight Mitchell to any other
living man.
Judge Newton when seen later about
Noels remarks, said contract is not
made until it is signed, and then sent
the telegram before referred too, to Lon
don.
Jack McAuliffe has sent cablegram
to Dick Burgess manager, saying he &C.
cepts the challenge to fight, provided
the battle takes place in America, the
two men to meet at J3S pounds for the
lightweight championship and purse
of $25o3. Burge has already deposited
a forfeit, and McAuliffe's backer is anx-
ious to cover the amount, providing the
battle can be arranged to take place in
this country.

1.-THE key of the house. my dear, is above,
Go up and fetch it, now there is a love.
"Go look in the closet, just off from the stair,
1t lies in my grenadine pocket up there"
And so with step that was joyous and light,
He bounded up stairs in the gathering night.
And the door of the closet he opened quite
wide,
And he clutched with chuckle the old gren"
adne,
And he felt for the place where pocket he'd
seen.
Then he thought that the garment was inside
out,
So with teeth set together he turned it about.
And felt with feverish hand in vain
For slit, and he swore with his might and
main;
Then ne turned the thing up, and he turned it
down,
And jumped on the cursed old grenadine gown.
UNTIL as he lay with the dress on the floor,
His better half came up and opened the door.
And she took up the gown and she put in her
hand,
And she pulled out the key with smile that
was bland.
declare,
That is just like man. Why, the key was
right there!'
