NEWARK, N. j., Jan. 1O.-While some
laborers were at work on one OF tho
furnaces in the Newark Zinc Works
yesterday they detected the smell OF
burning flesh and wSEhAhohi6edAt to, see
blood trickling down some pipes over
head. One Of the men went to the roof
OF shed and crawled in on a platform
over the nest OF pipes. Beneath the
platform on the pipes the workman
saw the body Of o. IMAM. The clothing
had been burned from the body. 1t
took several workmen overrRn. hour to
dislodge the body.
There is nothing TO lead to the mans
identity. Noneof the workmen are miss.
ing, and it is believed the victim is a
tramp who crawled on the platform to
sleep and was overcome by gas from the
furnaces. Il il supposed that, feeling
the effects Of The gas heihad attempted
to reach the shed, but in his struggle
rolled from the platform TO the nest Of
pipes, which formed q grldion on which
he was slowly roasted alive.

1t Believes That the Next Pope Should
Have a Different Policy.

LONDON. April ia dispatch received here
from Rome, emanating from high authority.
states that the Italian government intends
upon the occasion of the holding of
the great papal conclave to is
sue brochure entitled II Papa
Deye Essere I;aliano.' declaring thatsthe next
pope ought 20 overthrow the democratic policy
established by the present pope and become
recOEciled with the Quirinal. The work i. is
said. will also declare that Pope Leo successor
should favor tine alliance between Germany,
Austria and Italy.
The dispatch adds that in official circles it is
greatly feared that Pope Leo's successor will be
a foreigner. The liberals especially dread the
election of Cardinal Gibbons of Baltimore.
The officials at the Vatican laugh at the idea
of the proposed brochure having any effect.
They smile also al the other attempts that the
Italian government has made or NAV attempt to
make TO change the pope spoicy. The ecciesiast-
ica authorizes believe thai the democratic
policy of the pope has obtained sucn firm
hold upon the minds Of the people that it will
become traditional and other popes will live
up to it.

facturers Appear Confident.
NV York, April 1.-The locked out cloth
ing cutters appeared as cheerful and deter
mined as ever this morning. Neither side will
yield point and there is but little prospect of
an amicable settlement Of the difficulty.
An air of mystery surrounded the move
ments of the officers of the United Garment
Workers of America at their headquarters and
Secretaries White and Reichers declared that
startling events NAV transform the entire as
pect OF the lockout before the day is ended.
The manufacturers continue conn lacent and
express the same feeling of confidence that
they will win the fight Mr.. Nendelsohn. vice
president of the Clothing Manufac-
turers Association, says that the lead
ers OF the garment workers are hold
ing the men together by promises to
have the manufacturers arrested and secure the
cutters SIS. 900 each damages but AS soon "a the
illusion is dispelled the men will all flock back
TO work.
President Hornthal saws the manufacturers
are undisturbed about the threats of arrest and
are in no way inconyenienced by the lockout
Secretary Harry White OF the garment cut
tiers SAID this morning that there was a big
movement Oh foo: on the part Of the Brotherhood
OF Tailors. the contracting tailors and the
locked out enters which would lead to retalis-
tory measures against the manufacturers.
There will be a conference looking to this
end held some day this week by the three or
CARNATIONS for the purpose OF taking advan-
tage OF the present lockout. and demanding at
the same time a higher scale OF wages. shorter
hours and the complete abolition OF the sweat

Judge Osborne Refuses to Order That ALI

New YORK, April 11.-Judge Osborne Of the
city court, BROOKLYN, today denied the applica-
ton of Cora Tanner 10 compel Col
VIM. E. Sim of the Park Theater to
pay her alimony pending the trial of
his action to have the marriage annulled.
but ordered the veteran theatrical manager to
pay her $50 counsel fee. Col. Sim bases his
sult on the ground that the defendant was
never legally divorced from her first husband
Dr. G. Fred Farin OF Rochester
In disposing OF the application for alimony
and counsel fees Judge Osborne said:
1T appears from affidavit of the plain
tiT that the trial of his action was actu-
ally commenced on February last and
was suspended by mutual consent, to be re-
sumed on two days notice. Noreason is shown
why the trial Of this action might not be re-
sumed and completed at an early day.
ut is admitted that the defendant has some
$4,000 on deposit and is possessed Of valuable
property SO that she has ample means to sup
port herself for time at least.
Under these circumstances l denv the de-
PENDANTS application for aimony, with leave.
however, to her to renew the same in case the
trial of this action is delayed beyond the
month Of June on plaintiffs application or re-
quest.
Il am of the opinion that the preparation
for and the trial of the cause involves consider
able labor and expense which ought not to be
borne by defendant. /, therefore, allow her
counsel fee Of $780,"

PREHISTORIC RELICS TURNED UP.

What is Being Found in Excavating the
Famous Mound at Martins Ferry, Ohio.
NEW YORK. April 1.-THE Times Toledo,
Ohio, special saws:
Widespread interest is felt in the demolition
of the famous mound in Walnut Grove near
Mar tin s Ferry. this state The work of re-
moyal has been in progress two weeks and at
least two more will be required.
The earth is used for street
filling. Human skeletons, skulls, bones,
elk antlers. paleolithic engravinss and imple-
ments, arrowheGds, spear heads. pale gray
fints. cup stones. agricultural implements,
granite hammer stones. sinkers, perforated
stones, &c, have been found Some of the
relics are noticeably different from any
recorded in history. Most of them are found
near the bottom. Some of the skulls are twice
the size OF the ordinary skulls OF the present
day. Under one skull were thirty-two darts, all
fine specimens and pointing in one direction.
The further into the mound the worknen dig
the more interesting the relics become 1t is
believed that hidden treasures will yet be
found. The major part OF the stones
found are different from any in the
Ohio valley. Some are really beautiful
specimens. There are different sizes. from the
large salutrion points. OF the sape of the laurel
leaf. down to very small specimens. Several Of
the implements are beautifully clipped. Sew
eral skin scrapers were found and q number of
monster iron points. The elk antlers found
measure IL feet across and s.. inches In diam
eter az the base.
Some of the human bones are in a good state
Of preservation. while others crumbled into dust
when removed.
The mound is 80 feet high and III feet in
diameter. Few mounds are larger. Nine-
teU,hs Of the mound is made Of yellow clay.
The other tenth Is OF dark earth and stones.
The CLAW Is entirely different from
any in this neighbornooi. From the top to
the bottom there at least thirty strata of
earth. The tGmuus is more symmetrical and
shapely than many others The earth is in diff
ferent strata. not in horizontal lines, but un-
conformity with the surface of the mound.
Over two skeletons found was a thin stratum
OF red clay looking as IL it had been burned and
carefully cemented over the dirt to keep off the
water.
The articles of personal use must have been
exposed to an int tnse heat. Only clay or stone
could resist 1t. III it were not for this we might
know OF the habits and customs of the people
and the advance they made in arts. They GER
tainiy had developed civilization Of a vigorous
and original growth
The dead ard buried culture of the ancient
people to whose memory they erected such
monuments is especially noteworthy in that
it differs from all of their extinct civilization.
The people must have been numerous. Their
work stands distinctiyely original from any for
eign influence.
This mound is supposed to De over one thou
sand years old.

An odd sight greeted visitors at the woman
building today. GIN entering tine door could be
seen pile Of peculiar looking boxes and cases
with heavy set. broad shouldered man walking
around them. An inspection of the boxes and
n reading of the red seals revealed the fact
that they contained the laces sent here by
Queen Margherita of Italy in an italian war
ship and brought to this CITY under martial
escort, with an officer to keep continuous
watch upon the precious fabrics.
Quite a crowd had assembled around the
boxes when carriage pulled up to the great
door and handsome lady of noble bearing was
helped out, and at once entered the building
Making her way to the boxes. she spoke some
words in Italian to the officer who guarded
them.
This lady was Countess Dibrazza. who was
sent here by the Queen of Italy to give her su-
pervision to the opening of the priceless
laces.
After assuring herself that everything
right and with parting admonition to the
sturdy watcher the countess ran noby up
stairs to the board of lady managers. but found
none of them on hand and returning to her car
riage she drove away for a survey Of the
grounds.
Before leaving the countess said in reply to
an inquiry why the iaces were so zealously
guarded: "Tha: exhibit is of priceless value to
the italian crown. The boxes contain weaves
from every lace factory in Italy, and all
Of it is the handiwork OF women. Our
lace products are most beautiful. Our queen
has sent an exhibit of the crown laces. and we
wish to show the women Of the world what
Italian women can do"
