WALTER EARLE'S INSANITY.
His Friends Think 1t Was Due to the Kee-
ley Cure.

NEW YORK, February 9.-Walter B.
Earle died at the Poughkeepsie insane
asylum on Friday afternoon. The burial
took place yesterday. About four years
ago Mr.. Earle took to drink. In Decem-
Der last he entered the Kelley Institute
at White Plains for treatment. About
the end of January he was discharged,
apparently cured of his habit. Ten davs
ago Earle became insane suddenly,
though up to that time he was perfectly
rational, and had not touched a drop of
liquor since his discharge from the insti-
tute.
His parents wrote to the doctor at
White Plains of his sudden change, and
they replied that he hadnot been in the
institution two weeks before he devel-
oped symptoms of mental disorder, and
that they had given him extra treatment.
His parents never knew that he had ex-
hibited any signs of mental disorder in
the institute, or before he went there,
and they say that the neglect on the part
of the institute people to notify them of
the symptoms shown by their patient
will probably form basis for suit for
damages against them.

TO ROB SENATOR HALE.
Charge Against Two Men Now Under Ar
rest in Washington.
Especial to the Press.1


WASHINGTON, February 9.-Two well
dressed men, giving their names as Geo.
Henderson and John Murphy, were ar
rested by the police today on suspicion
of contemplating burglary on Senator
Hale's house. The men came here
week ago and rented couple of rooms
in respectable boarding house on 10th
street. For the past two days, the po-
lice have had the men under surveillance
and this morning the detectives placed
them under arrest. When the men first
engaged their rooms, they made en-
uuiries as to the residence of prominent
persons and particularly as to Senator
Hale's. One of them pretended to be
acquainted with Mrs. Hale and told his
landlady that he had called on that lady.
When the officers went to arrest them to-
day, they refused to open the door of
their room and it had to be forced. They,
had but little money and less baggage,
but among their effects were found a
a chisel, hammer, wire cutter and other
instruments necessary for burglar to
ply his business successfully.

A TRAMP's REVENGE.
He Fired a House Whose Sick Occupants
Were Saved by Young Girl.

CALAIS, February 9.-Late yesterday
afternoon, tramp called at the farm
house of John Pulk, at Oak Bay, N. B.,
and demanded food. Pulk and his wife
were sick abed up stairs. A fifteen year
old daughter told the tramp that no food
was cooked and refused to admit him.
The tramp used threatening language
and disappeared. Shortly afterwards,
the girl discovered that the house and
barn were afire. She dragged her father
and mother out of doors on mattresses,
covered them and went for help mile
distant. Returning, she found the build
ings and their contents, including
horse, two cows, hay, ETC., entirely CON
sumed. The parents were badly chilled.
The loss is not known. There is no in
surance. The tramp was traced to st.
Stephen. He probably crossed into
Maine.

BLUsHINe BRIDE OF 90.
She Is Only About Sixty Years Her Hus-
bands Senior.

NEW York, February "a wedding
which, although it was not altogether
secret was very unobtrusixe, took. place
in this city a few months ago, and the
news of it has just got out. The con
tracting parties were Eliza A. Clark, a
wealthy maiden lady whose house is at
10S East Thirty-sixth street, and DR..
Marvin D. Hubbell, who was graduated
from the College of Physicians and Sur
geons four, years ago.
The age of the bride is a matter of
some uncertainty. 1t seems an ungra-
cious speculation, but the figures are un-
usual. A physician who has treated her
for number of years said last night
that she appears to be about 70. A sec
ond cousin was of the opinion that Miss
Clark had passed her S0th year at the
time of her marriage. A despatch from
Danbury, Conn, where Miss Clark was
born, gives her age as 81 years. Accord
ing to the same despatch the groom's
age is 20. Acquaintance of DIR. Hub
BELLS in this city, however. judging from
his appearance, put his age at from ~ to
35 years.
Mrs. Hubbell, that now is, is said to be
possessed of a very considerable fortune,
which is variously estimated at from
$500, 900 to $780, 000.s Sheis the owner of
a handsome house at 10Ss East Thirty
sixth street, where she and her young
husband are now living, and of other
real estate in and out of this city.
The attachment between the parties is
said to have grown up during the last
four years, during which Dr..
Hubbell has been Miss Clark's physi-
clan.

VIENNA, February additional par
ticulars of the railway disaster on the
line from Bucharest to Brakilov, Rol-
mania, show it to have been a scene OF
unexampled horror. Twenty people, be-
longing to the better class of the comlmu-
nifty, were locked in a first class carriage
in the express train. The interior of the
carriage took fire while the train was
speeding along, and before the cries and
screams of the imprisoned passengers at

THE CRY OF THE ALLIANCE.
Congressman Hear Its Appeal for Free
Silver.

oOAAe5 OSS>-~S~-
Silver.
WASHINGTON, February 8. At the
hearing before the House committee on
coinage, weights and measures, Leonard
Rhone of Pennsylvania, representing the
legislative committee of the National
Grange, said that the American farmer
was asking that silver be restored to the
position it occupied prior to 1876. An
increased volume of money, he said,
meant enhancement of prices. The
farmers had no silver or stocks to sell,
but did have farm products, which were
affected not only by our policy, but by
the policy of other countries. When the
American farmer went with his wheat
into the Liverpool market, he obtained
possibly $1.10 bushel for it. The Indi-
an and Russian farmer realizeds$l.3 l.30 in
silver for wheat, thus placing the Ameri-
can farmer in disadvantageous position
in foreign markets. He read the resolu
tions of the National Grange in favor of
free coinage.
Discussion arose between members of
the committee over the statement made
by Mr.. Taylor of Illinois that Director
Leech had said silver certificates were
redeemed in gold and in this way gold
would flow out Mr.. Bland asked if any
Secretary of the Treasury would dare to
pay out gold for silver certificates. Mr..
Taylor replied that the secretary dared
not do anything else.''
Mr.. Bland-"Then he violates the law
every time he does it, and is liable to inn
peachment, for the act distinctly says
they are redeemable in silver dollars and
nothing else.
Messrs. Taylor and Williams of Mas
sachusetts insisted that the practice of
the government was to pay out gold for
any Of it's obligations whenever demand
cd.
Mr.. Williams of Illinois and others in
sisted that the silver law, by its terms,
made certificates redeemable in silver.

Pension BiIls--Uncle Sam Paying
Bath Iron Works-Eastport's New
Building.
WASHINGTON. February 9.-The House
today went into committee of the whole
on the military academy appropriation
bill. Mr.. Wheeler of Alabama, in charge
of the bill, said it appropriated $467, 795,
which was $50, ,525 less than the estimates
of the department. While it carried a
larger appropriation than the bill of last
year, it was $114,247 less than the aver
age amount of increase over the expen-
ditures of the present fiscal year. There
was also necessity for certain permanent
improvements. Mr.. Wheeler said the
people demanded economy, but did not
demand, and would not tolerate, cheese
pairing in appropriations for the support
of the great military academy.
Mr.. Dockery of Missouri said that
every man on the Democratic side joined
in the chorus of denunciation of the ap-
preparations made by the 1SBillion Dol
lar'' Congress. He did not believe a
Democrat on the floor endorsed the
mighty aggregate of the appropriations
of the last Congress, yet the first appro-
priation bill to come from Democratic
committee carried S64,0O0 more than the
similar bill passed by the 51st Congress.
The question for Democrats was whether
they intended to keep their pledge of
economy or would approve this bill,

NEW YORK, February 9.-The list OF
missing guests of the burned Hotel Roy
al is still increasing, and hundreds OF
persons called at the morgue today to in
quire for friends. In the basement, just
back of the Office, the valuable diamonds
of Mrs. Hattie Van Norden were found
in silver, gold-lined casket. These
jewels were identified by Henry Van Nor
den, as the property of his missing wife.
W. L. Lewis, of Mount Vernon, N. y,
reported as missing, is alive and well.
Fire Marshal Mitchell continued today
his investigation into the origin of the
fire. Richard Meares, the proprietor of
the hotel, Herbert Harding, the engi-
neer, and Jean Nectux, the chef, testi-
fed. The engineer stated there was no
fire in the kitchen. Chef Nectux was
not in the building when the fire started.
When he left. the kitchen fires were
banked and pots of grease were on the
back of the>range. Fire Marshal Mitch
ell thinks the fire originated in the eleva-
tor as the result of a careless use OF
matches. He says the rubber tube leading
to the elevator, ON being twisted, would
cut the gas supply. Every time the car
made a trip past certain point, the con-
ductor would have to relight the jet.
The engineer also made an investigation
with lamp to see if there was a leak.
He may hove left spark to shoulder in
some crevice. According to Mr.. Meares,
at the time the fire broke out, there were
five men in the basement of the building.
In all II bodies have been recovered.
Decomposition has set in and they must
soon be buried.
