Middletown, Conn, Sept. 5.-A dis
covery of what has the appearance OF
double murder, and may prove to pc a
triple assassination, has just. been made
at Birmingham, at the foot OF the
Shawangunk i mountains. The events
feeding up to the supposed murders date
little time back. Paul Holiday, q
widower, who resides near Birmingham,
recently married young woman who
had been working for him. Soon after
the marriage the house and barn We're
burned and his crippled son was burned
to death in the house. Mrs. Holiday
was arrested for arson and held IN the
Orange county Jail, where she showed
evidence of insanity. She was sent to
the state hospital, and, subsequently be-
ing released, returned home. The latter
part Of last week Holiday was missed
and the woman was arrested. In the
barn at Holiday place was found un-
der a lot of hay the bodies of two
women. One was that of feshy woman
about forty-fve years old, and the other
that of young girl aged about nineteen
years. In the body of the elder woman
there We're eight bullet wounds. Death
had evidently taken place in both cases
about four days before While the names
Of the. dead women arc unknown, it is
thought they were summer boarders from
New York city. Coroner Soesh of
Wurtsboro has summoned a jury and
local physicians are making a post
mortem examination. The inquest will
be held tomorrow afternoon. The search
for Holiday continues. 5@ ~.

SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. 6-"The City
of Peking sighted eighteen miles out"
was the news telephoned all over the
city this morning by the Merchants
Exchange. The news spread with in
credible rapidity and the exchange
rooms were soon crowded by friends
and relatives of those on board Of the
now long overdue steamer, as well rs
welfare, all anxious TO learn the de-
tails of the Peking's trouble. They
were disappointed when Informed she
would not get into port for several
hours, probably not until ! O'Clock.
It was nearly 8 O'Clock this morning
when the lookout at Point Laboes
sighted the Peking and little later it
was seen thai she was in tow of the
tugboat Vigilant. The Vigilant did
not go out in quest of the Peking, but
was stationed out near the Farallones
waiting for II tow. The fact that the
steamer San Juan, which started yes.
terday in search Of the Peking, missed
her and that the overdue vessel had
come near enough TO be picked up by
the Vigilant would indicate that the
delay had been caused by trouble with
the machinery aud that the versel had
proceeded slowly under sail. The ma
chinery broke down nineteen days

few weeks has been extremely disagree
able. He states that the tests of Fair
haven coke made by three large CON
Germs have been highly satisfactory In
each instance. The Union Iron Works
pronounced IL equal to the best Eng
lish coke, and will allow the same price
for 1t. AT present freights make 1t

Ing shipped, and charters are as low ~

WILKEsBARRE, Feb. 6--rhe people
of Upper Pittstown, a small place near
here, are excited over the poisoning Of
james Sullivan and Martin Kearns by
some Poles. A Polish wedding took
place yesterday and the men went to
the house where the festivities were
being held. When they went in the
Poles became excited aud wanted to
put them out, but finally allowed the
men TO stay and offered them some
beer. The visitors drank two or three
glasses and noticed "A peculiar taste
about il but did not suspect anything
wrong. They left the house shortly
after, Sullivan going one way and
Kearns another. Kearns became very
sick, but managed TO reach his hotel
and there fell into cOnvulsiOus. A
physician, after two hours hard work,
brought him around. Then he told
his story, and as Sullivan had not
turned up "A searching party was sent
after him. His dead body was found
"n the railroad track terribly mangled.
The police say that Pole whom they
have been after was Ia the vicinity Of
the wedding party, and his friends,
thinking Sullivan and Kearns were
detectives in search of him, poisoned
them 80 that the criminal could es-
cape. II Is believed that they followed
up Sullivan and murdered him and
then threw his body on the railroad
track, where IL was run over by the
train. An investigation Is being held.
