meeting last night to take action upon the
passage of a resolution at the boards last
meeting awarding 500 to Phil Kirschner as
clerk to the board, and S25 to sCap'' Aldo
retta as Sergeant-at-Arms as a Christmas

the resolution was rescinded. The board
decided that if Soap" and sPhil" want

that the department has to specify where
every cent is expended, and gifts do not
come in the category of expenses.
Several s~torekeepeTs nave COM
planned to the board that
some iremen do not pay their bills promptly.
Section 8 of the manual provides that the
members of the department. must meet all
obligations strictly, and the members COM
planned of will be cited to appear at the next
regular meeting of the board.

REVENGE ON HER LOVER.
A Girls Expose Led to Rudolph
Mrva,s Assassination.
Ru CdhIs tn tbe TI11ife1 prsee

PRAGUE, Dec. 81, 1S93.-The assassination
of Rudolph Mrva, who, it is alleged by many
young Czechs, was a police spy or agent
proyacateur, and the arrests that have fol-
lowed, have caused great excitement, and
it is evident that the authorities
expect trouble. The police are confined in
the barracks, ready to be despatched in
stantly to the scene of any disturbance. The
houses of many members of the Omladina,
the secret society to which the assassins of
Mrya belonged, nave been searched, and
more arrests are impending.
1t is reported that young woman to whom
Mrva had paid his addresses knew for a long
time of his connection with the police, but
she did not reveal the fact to any one. Mrva
persuaded the young woman's brother to join
the Omladina, and shortly after he became
connected with the organization was arrest
ed. His sister, with her knowledge of Mrva's
real occupation, concluded that the latter had
caused the incarceration of her brother, and
she determined to have revenge on him. She
had in her possession a note book belonging
to Mrva, which, it is said, contains many
entries showing that its owner was an active
ally of the police, and that he had betrayed
many men into the hands of the authorities.
This notebook the young woman handed
over to Herr Herold, the member of the
Reichsrath who denounced Mrva in the
House during the recent debate of the coer-

BIZ Cable to the United Press.

BUDAPEST, Dec. 81, 1S93.-A captain be-
longing to a Honved regiment will shortly
start for Cairo, where he will assume the
command of an expedition to the Soudan.
The object of the expedition is
to liberate tine Austrians, Herr
Neufelder, a merchant, and Slatin Bey, who
nave long been held as slaves by the Nah
dists. Before the departure Of the expedition
from Cairo, its commander will have a con-
ference with Father Ohrwalder, the priest
who escaped from the Mahdists.
Father Ohrwalder and Sisters Catharine
Chinearini and Elizabeth Venturini, be-
longing to the Soudan Austrian Mission,
were captured by the Mahdists and held
in slavery for a long time. They effected
their escape during a fight between
the natives and Omdurman, and after
many privations crossed the desert to
Korosko. They reported that when they
left Omdurman there were still held captive
by the Mahdists at that place nineteen
Greeks, eight Syrians, eight Jews and two
Austrian missionaries. Slatin Bey was then
holding a high post under the Khalifa
Abdallah, but was closely watched. Herr
Neufelder was kept in chains and compelled
to make powder for his captors in the old
Austrian Mission church at Khartoum.
Some Of the Sisters who were captured by
the Mahdists were distributed among the
harems, where a number of them died.

Socialist Students Manifesto,
BIZ Gable to the United Press.

BERLIN, Dec. 81, 1898. The Socialist stu
dents attending the Universities at Berlin,
Freiburg, Marburg and Kiel, and the Cath
Ole Academy at Muenster have addressed a
manifesto to the Socialist Congress at Gen
eva.
The Vortoderts, the organ of the Socialists,
puts a damper on the manifesto of the stu
dents, by saying it does not believe that they
have any right to speak o. behalf of the intel
lectual proletariat, which the manifesto men
tions. The paper adds that the fact that a
person is or was a member of a university
does not prove his capacity for disseminating
Socialist, theories.
h VorWedrts seems to fear that the
students will damage the Socialist cause by
their extravagant utterances.
Two workingmen who were walking to-
gether in Muggelsee, near this city, today,
came upon a package lying in the street,
which they thought might contain
something of value. They sought
a quiet spot and then sat
down to examine their find. One of the men
unwrapped the package while the other
man stood over him, looking anxiously
to see what its contents were. Suddenly
there was a binding flash and a
loud report, and their package
disappeared. Several persons, attracted by
the report, ran to the scene, and found the
two men quite badly wounded about their
faces and hands. They were attended to,
and the police were informed OF the
occurrence. There is no doubt that the
package contained an internal machine that
was placed where it was found by some one,
presumably an Anarchist, for the purpose of
killing or injuring whoever might be tempt
ed to pick it up and examine it.

NEWARK, Dec. 81, 1S93.-Vice Chancellor
Green, in the Chancery Chambers here,
this morning, heard the-argument of caunsel
in the application of a receiver of
the Hoffman House of New York, which
was made by w. E. D. Stokes. This appli-
cation states thas the corporation, according
to affidavit made by Edward S. Stokes, is an
insolvent concern, and, being Incorporated
under the laws of New Jersey, a resident of
of this State should be placed in charge of
the company's affairs. The Vice Chancel-
Tor, after hearing argument, decided
that there was no further cause
for delay, although ex-senator Brinker-
hof claimed that he had not of the applica-
ton for a receiver until yesterday, and had
had no time to prepare affidavits. A. Keas-
hey, counsel for w. E. d. Stokes, stated that
he had just received word from New York
that, according to the order of the Court of
Chancery, application had been made
this morning for the books of the
Hoffman House, and the request
had been denied. An affidavit was then read
that had been made by j. w. Crayn, which
stated that he had been in the Chancary
Court at Jersey City on December -, and
that when leaving the room he had over
heard John Adams, counsel for Z. S. Stokes,

order had been granted allowing the books
to be seen, They may sign an order to
show the books of the Hoffman House, but l
will be damned if they will ever see them.n

TRIED TO sWINDLE THE BREWERY.
The Efforts of Won der Leith to Get
Rid of His saloon.

John }. Gerken, t~wenty-nine years of age,
of No. $50 Newark street, Hoboken, was ar
rested last night on complaint of William
Won der Leith of No. so Madison street,
charged with obtaining money under false
pretences. Won der Leith wanted to
sell his saloon at Newark and Madi-
son streets on the first of this
month. He urged Gerken to take the
shop, and instructed him to tell any inquis-
tive persons, who asked that he paid $500
down 1t was not necessary to pay Just
then, Won der Leith said, but it was best to
tell people that he had. The store was
valued at 81 1900, and Won der Leith repre-
sented that it was free from incumbrance.
Gerken was to settle the remaining
$1,000 by signing notes, due in three
months from date of issue, December.
Gerken said he had no security, but Won der
Leith said it didn't matter; that he could
sign the notes anyhow. Then Won der Leith
directed Gerken to go to a brewery
and get $500 to start up the
told that already there was a mortgage of
$275 on the place, and the money was re-
fused. Won. der Leith had told Gerken that
when he got the $500 from the
brewery he should turn it over to Won der
Leith and that money would be advanced
for Gerken to go to Europe to get money to
meet the notes. When Gerken found that
there was a mortgage on the place he was
determined to expose what he, styles, Won
der Leith's scheme to swindle the brewery
out of $500. But Won der Leith precluded
accomplishment of his purpose by swearing
out a warrant. This morning Gerken was
held by Recorder McDonough. He MAIN
tains his innocence, but the Recorder saws he
cannot allow him to go.

Globe-Democrot from Gvaymas, Sonora,s says
another crime is added to outrages being
committed by the band of renegade Yaqui
Indians, which are again terrorizing
the mountain regions of Northwestern
Mexico. Word comes from the Pueblo of
Santa Maria that three of the Indians at
tackled a wood camp near that place, killing
%wounding his two companions. They then
fed for the mountain Businesses and have
not been seen since. The number of
Yaquis making the present disturbance
is estimated to be about 100. The troops
of the Mexican army are constantly in pur-
suit, but on account of the remarkable
powers of endurance and knowledge of the
country possessed by the outlaw Indians are
able to do but little.

RELIGIOUS WAR IN UGANDA.
By Gable to the United Press.

BERLIN, Dec. 81, 1s93,-The Tageblatt
prints an article by Eugene Wolf, based IN
letters he has received from Uganda to July
Is. He says that the Mahommedans have
again been expelled from Uganda, and that
he believes their power in that country is
ended. He predicts, however, that a war
between the Christians and Mahommedans
is probable and that Unyoro will be the
scene of the conflict. He is also of the opin-
ion that peace between the Protestants and
Catholics is not likely to endure, as the
Protestants nave failed to carry out their
share of the agreement entered into with Sir
Gerald Portal, the British Commissioner to
Uganda, and since Sir Gerald's departure
they are demanding exclusive possession of
the country. Judging from all his informa-
ton at hand Herr Wolf concludes that the
situation in Uganda is serious.

EXCITEMENT IN A THEATRE
Rumor of Anarchists Scared the Au-
By cable 10 the United Press.


By Gable TO The United Press.
MADRID, Dec. q, 1s93.-A large audience
gatherep last night in the Royal Opera
Honse, and while waiting for the per-
Torrance to begin the people conversed
with each other in the manner ommon
at operatic performances. Suddenly a
rumor was circulated through the house that
Anarchists were present, and intended TO
commit a bomb outrage. With the
memory of the outrage at the Lyceum
Theatre at Barcelona fresh in their
minds the people did not for an instant
doubt that the rumor was true, and in less
time than it takes to tell of it the whole
audience was in a state of semi-panic. The
women hastily donped their wraps, men
grabbed their hats and overcoats and hdr-
riedly departed from the building. The
hasty egress of the audience attracted the
attention of passersby, who were soon
informed of the rumor that
had driven the people from the Opera
House. and these. in turn, further cir
culated the report, with such additions
as their imaginations suggested. In
some quarters it was reported that
a frightful explosion had occurred
and soon the streets in the vicinity of the
Opera House We're packed with excited
throngs of people clamoring for de-
tails of the affair. The population
of the whole city was intensely excited.
The news speedily reached the Governor
of Madrid, and close upon its heels followed
a denial: The Governor at once drove to
the opera house, where by this time the
people, among whom fingered many of those
who had been inside the building,
were demanding the instant arrest of the
would-be bomb throwers, though who they
were or where they were nc one could say.
When the Governor appeared and stated
fhof tho Tr1n1n~ wa q Rqnarh fha IpT0NVh
became treasured, and most of them
quietly departed. The great fear and
excitement caused by a mere rumor of an
Anarchist ploe is evidence of the state of the
people caused by the repeated Anarchist out
