EMMA WOODS GUILTY.
The Woman Who Shot Lew Brown Found
Guilty of Granddaughter.


NEWARK, n. J., Oct. 20.-The jury in the
case of Emma Woods, charged with the
murder of Lew Brown, brought in a YER
dict of guilty of manslaughter.
An exhaustive charge had been delivered
by Judge Depue, which was very unfavora-
BILE to the woman. As Prosecutor Crane
finished his address to the jury the prison
er tainted. The strain had been too great
for her. Her old father was not in sourt at
all. The woman wept during the three
hours and more of the prosecutors speech,
and her little boy wept with her.
After the jury went out the crowd about
the courthouse became very large and in
cluded many women and children, who
waited to hear the verdict. Emma Woods
was conducted to a small room to await the
deliberations of the jury.
She sat there trembling, awaiting the
word which would settle her fate AS the
afternoon deepened into evening the crowd
about the courthouse assumed such proper
tions that traffic was almost completely
stopped on the streets on either side of the
courthouse. Constables were sent out to
clear away the crowd, but they made but
little impression upon the anxious mob.
When the jury came in, the judge told
the prisoner to stand up. As the foreman
of the jury pronounced the words, Guilty
of manslaughter," Emma Woods fell TO
the floor sobbing violently. She was car.
ried into the juryroom. The crime foI
which Emma Woods was tried and found
guilty WAS the killing of Lewis Brown on
june last. She was Browns mistress
and was jealous of him. Brown kept q
saloon known as Tammany Hall, and he
was well known politician.

New YORK, Oct. 20.-NIayor Body of
Brooklyn and Sheriff Courtney of that city
both announced that the authorities of
Kings county had decided not to allow the
Mitchell-Curbett fight to take place.
When Pugilist James J. Corbett received
word at Asbury Park that the Kings coun-
ty officials at a special meeting had de
cided to stop the fight, he said that he pro
posed going on with his daily training as
heretofore, and if the fight did not come off
1t would be no fault of his. Corbett re
fused to say whether he would sign tC
fight before any other club.
\ dispatch from New Orleans says that
Governor Foster of Louisiana had said in
regard to the proposed fight;
That fight will not take place in the
state of Louisiana. l do not think there is
much likelihood of the principals coming
here, but ii they do l shall certainly take
steps to prevent it"
PITTsBCRG, Oct. eo-Charley Mitchell
received official notice that the sheriff OF
Kings county, y. Y, where the Coney
Island club is situated, had decided not to
allow the fight between Corbett and him
self to come off in Kings county on Dec. Is.
Mitchell said he was asked to state what
purse he would take TO bring the affair of
in New Orleans or San Francisco, but, in
his opinion, if it were illegal to fight in
one state it was also in another. He had
come to America for the sole purpose OF
striving for the championship. II the bat
tie could not be brought off here, he said.
it could be elsewhere, and suggested Mex
ico.or Havana as the place. At either Of
these places he would meet Corbett, not
under his pet Marquis of Queensberry
rules, but under London prize ring rules,
on the turf, with bare knuckles and all the
other conditions which had surrounded the
battle for the worlds championship in
former times. Corbett could make the
stake whatever he saw fit, and he would
come forth with his side Of it, whatever the

MURDERED BY MosLEMs.



NEW YORK, Oct S0-Much uneasiness Is
felt by the missionary societies in this city
on account of reports Of continued persecu-
ton of Christians which are being received
from their representatives in foreign lands.

American Bible society. received a letter
from the Rev. w. l.. Whipple agent of
that society in Persia, containing graphic
Christian in Oroomiah short time before.
Mr.. Whipple writes:
There has been a grave state of affairs
in Oroomiah since wrote you last-an up
rising of the Moslems against the Chris
tians. There was a mob of Moslems led
by the theological students of the Null
labs against an American merchant,
a member of the Protestant church.
They circulated a false report about
him and inaamed the rabble until
finally he was dragged from his shop and
hurried OFF to the large mosque near by.
He was severely beaten on the way. When
they reached the mosque, some wanted to
kill him at once; others tried to save him.
He was given the opportunity of becom-
ing a Mussulman, but this he said he could
not do. He asked five minutes in which to
pray and prepare for death. While he was
praying, some say, one MoSlem stabbed
him in the back with a hanjar, the long
Persian poniard. Then others stsbbed him
until he died. /; is said that there were
more than 10 stab wounds on his body.
They then put a rope around his neck and
dragged his body to the outer wall of the
city and threw it into the ditch of stagnant
water, a very foul place. They killed dog
and threw it by his side
