SUNDAY OPENING
Still Furnishes Points For Argument Between
Legal luminaSlea


CHICAGO. July l7.-By an almost unani-
nous vote large majority Of the Worlds
fair directors decided last Friday that
here after she gates of the fair shall be
closed to the public on Sunday. But this
decision, It appears, does not finally settle
the question. A temporary Injunction OBJ
tained several weeks ago by Charles w.
Clingman, one Of the stockholders In the
exposition company and q taxpayer of
Chicago, compelling the gates to be kept
open, st&@l stands In the way.
Judge Stein, of the superior court OF
Cook county, who granted the decree, said:
''The injunction is still In force; there is
no doubt about that. II the courts at
tention Is officially called to any violation
of the order it will, after due considera-
tion, take such action as may appear
proper"
William e. Mason. solicitor for the
petitioner, said: 1.-THE gates will not be
closed next Sunday unless my client de-
sires to back down"
Edwin Walker, who has been the chief
legal spirit In all the litigation ON the side
side Of the exposition company, said "The
gates will be closed. Unless Mr. Cling
man consents to an amicable adjustment
of the matter relative to the injunction
we will simply go into court and have IL
set aside"
The last open Sunday Of the exposition
did not show any improvement upon
other Sundays In point of attendance, but,
as nearly all pass holders paid the entrance
fee of so cents, the, fund for the Benefit of
the sufferers from the cold storage fire
was increased In substantial way.

TRAGEDY IN Maine.
John Edwards Beaten to
Death at Danforth.
Bella MOVES IS SUSPECTED.
He Runs Away But Is Captured by
Citizens After Q Long Chase.

BANGOR, Me-, July 1.-THE little lum-
ber town of Dlnforth was the scene Satur-
day evening OF cold blooded murder.
About p. m. people who had heard
sounds OF quarrel emanating from the
stable of the Foss House, the village hotel
started to investigate. and, on entering, a
horrible sight met their gaze.
Lying upon the floor at the rear OF the
stable was John Edwards, 85 years of age.
with his
Skull Crushed and Brain Exposed.
His lips were swollen to three times
their natural size, the result Of blow,
and his face was pounded so that it was
unrecognizable.
Suspicion was directed to Bella Noyes,
the hostler, as it was known to many that
hard feeling existed between the two men.
The selectmen on reaching the sceue or
dered his arrest, but the stable aud hotel
premises were searched without success
A large crowd had gathered In the mean
time, and man who had come from the
outskirts of the village reported having
seen Noyes running across the fields toward
the woods. Fifty men strrted on the run
IN the direction which the fugitive had
taken.
Scarcely an Hour Elapsed
before Noyes was surrounded In the woods
and taken. He made no resistance, and
was removed to the hotel and placed under
a strong guard, as the village has nc
lookup. Noyes protested his innocence oi
the murder.
Edwards came from New Brunswick,
was boastful Of his muscular powers and
had issued challenge to all comers to try
conclusions With him.
Noyes is a brawny oountryman and had
been rather annoyed by Edwards, and his
friends had been
Urging Him 20 Whip Him.
Whether either man had been drinking
IL not known, but II Is certain that neither
was Intoxicated.
The supposition Is that Edwards went
into the stable, and, finding Noyes there,
an alteration followed. IL is believed the
murder was committed with bar of iron.
Coroner Lincoln OF Dennysville IL ex.
pected to conduct an investigation.

ASTRONOMERS PUZZLED
BY an Unexpected Move on the Part OF the
New Comet

WASHINGTON, July 17.-At 1890 o'clock
Saturday night the comet, which Is now
the object of so much search and sp -cu-
lation. suddenly developed an enormous
tail, which. TO the Impractical eye, was
taken to be a display Of the aurora
borealis, At that hour Professor Frisbie
of the naval observatory was studying the
comet through the nire-inch glass. He
noticed long streak Of greenish-white
light shoot out from the comet aud extend
itself almost to the zenith.
At first, the nucleus of the comet being
at the moment hidden by feecy cloud,
II was thought that the aurora borealis
had sent out an advance notice OF a brill
liant engagement, but as there was no
Pickering. and as the light came steadily
from where the comet had last been seen,
the professor concluded that he was see-
ing comet in process Of development
The tail OF the comet was 10 degrees in
length and distance about 90 times as long
a. the moon is wide, and extended from
10 degrees'abo the horizon almost to the
zenith. II was plainly visible TO the
naked eye, aud was watched for some
time by the corps Of observers at the insti-
tuition.
Professor Frisbie saidi "There is no way
to explain the sudden freak Of the comet
They are erratio bodies at best, and the
only thing to say Is that this one had
reached stage where IL was ready to
throw the long streak Of luminous gan,
which we call q tail. II was not q bushy
tail, but was a long ribbon OF light"
