PITrsBuRG, PA, February 2l.-The bail
of Master Workman Dempsey, who was
recently convicted OF the Homestead
poisonings, was increased this morning
from 8. 800 to $4,000. Since his trial he
has been out on 81, 500 bail, but the court
did not consider the amount adequate, and
last evening he was arrested and spent tho
night in Jail. This morning he furnished
the rebuired $4,000 bond and was again re-

for new trial will probably be handed
down on Saturday.

TIRE Republican authorities Of Col
umbian County, Ohio, are resorting to
some very startling methods in their
war on the East Liverpool Crisis the
only Democratic paper in the COM
munity, Of whose keen and fearless
criticism they have a wholesome dread.
A suit for lioel has been brought at the
instance Of its ofice-holding enemies,
although reparation satisfactory TO the
parties directly interested had been
made and the case dropped by them.
Moreover, and far worse than this,
it is proposed 10 give the Crisis no
time to prepare a defense, to bring the
case to trial without indictment by the
grand jury, and In the Probate Court
before a hostile Judge, instead OF in the
court Of common pleas. It remains to
be seen il this shameful scheme
OF persecution will be carried out.
The honest people of COlumbiana
county OF all parties should protest
against so high-handed q proceeding
aud demand at least fair play before the
law for the Crisis at the hands Of its
numerous enemies in place and power.

The springfieid Armory About to Start
Big Contract.
WASHINGTON, June 3.-The ordnance
department of the army is making prep
arations for beginning the manufacture
OF new rifle at the Springfield armory
Immediately after the beginning OF the
new fiscal year. The rifle is of very
small calibre. intended to use smokeless
powder and is magazine arm. 1t is
estimated that within one year from
July the total output of the armory will
be about 1900 rifles, which is made
possible by the use of the most modern
labor'saving machinery. This number
OF rifles will probably suffice to arm the
entire infantry and artillery branches.
The carbine for cavalry use has not vet
been designed, but will be pushed for
ward as rapidly as possible. It is ex-
pected at the ordnance department that
there will be many calls for the new arm
from state MALTA organizations. These
demands will be met as fast as the army
equipment is complete, and the charge
for the guns will be not made against
the special appropriation of $40O, 900 for
the supply of the army but against the
regular MALTA appropriations.

marks said to have been used by Mckay

wounds, pronouncing the one in the
right breast serious, if not fatal. Satar-
day morning DR.. Deuel. summoned DR..

Five Persons Burned to Death in New
York City.
New York, June 3.-Four persons
were burned to death at fire at mid
night in ive-story fat house at 1873
East Forty-third street. They were
William Bente, 90 years DID, Louise
Bente, his 2l-year-old wife Bessie
Bente, aged 25, his sister; Helen Wet
more Blef. his niece.
Later-Another body has been found
in the same fat. 1t has been identified
as that of man named Pugsley, who
was boarder with the Bente family,
who occupied the top fiat. The fire
started in the third fiat, which was un-
tensnted, and ran up the air shaft,
bursting into and spreading over
the top floor. Every inmate of
ths house was wrapped in slum-
ber, from which they were aroused
by sitting smoke and threatening
flames, which by this time had gained
considerable headway. The terror
stricken occupants rushed hither and
thither through the halls, clad only in
their night clothing, seeking escape from
the threatening death. Many had hair
breadth escapes.
The firemen tried to get upstairs, but
found the passage blocked by wall of
smoke and flames. Atthe same time
pereons appeared at the windows OF the
fourth floor. The floor was occupied by
Mr.. Bjorkell, Dane, and family, and
their shrieks for help and frenzied
gesticulations served to increase the
horror of the situation. Scaling lad
ders were hastily run up against the
blazing building, and in trice nimble
fremen were at the work of rescue and
the whole family were borne in safety to
the street.
With sponges saturated with water in
their mouths to shut out the sitting
smoke, fremen pushed their way
through to the front room of the top
fiat. There in a heap, as if they had
huddled together in despair, were found
four bodies burned to a crisp. They
were those of the Bente family and
Pugsley. The pecuniary loss is not
known tonight.

PAN-sLAv1sT AGITATION.
Hungarian Statesmen Disturbed by Oc-
curances In Amarica

Hungarian Statesmen Disturbed by Oc-
curances In America.
vienna, June 3.--In the delegations
taday Count Apponya, leader of the
Hungarian opposition, asked Count
Kalnoky. minister of foreign affairs,
whether or not the government had in
formation of attempts of Rdssians in
the United States to convert Hungarian
immigrants to Pan-Slavists. at the
same time he demanded that Hungarian
consuls be sent to America to look after
the interests of Hungarian residents.
Count Kolnoky, in reply, said an inquiry
as to the Pan-Salvist agitation would be
made by the government which thus far
bad no knowledge of it's existence. Un-
doubtedly the subject might be of inn
portance, as in 1892 more than 80 900
emigrated from the empire to the United
States. Deputy Cznestory opposed the
investigation suggested by Count APP
ponye. The great distance of the United
States from central Europe, he said, pre-
cluded the possibility that the agitation.
supposing it existed, could result in sny
action within the empire.
