DIED AS A TRAMP.
The Husband of Anna Bishop Ends His
Life in New York Hospital.


NEW YORK, January ga morning
newspaper says that among the victims
of typhus fever at Riverside Hospital yes
terday was Martin Schultz, 70 years old,a
decrepit tramp. Fifteen years ago. he
was known as ''Baron" Schultz, the hus-
band of the famous cantatrice, Lady An
ma Bishop. The fortune Mrs. Bishop
left him on her death eight years ago he
had squandered. A brother urged him
to live with him on his farm, but he pre-.
ferred the lodging houses and the life of
city tramp.
Schultz had been in the produce bust
ness in this city, but caught the gold
fever in 40 and went to California. Sue
cess came first, then fail ure, and in 1856
he sailed for Australia to retrieve his
fortunes. On the ship he met Lazy An
ma Bishop, who was as well known then
as Patti is today. The singer was still
young, though six or seven years older
than Schultz. A year later Schultz be-
came the singers manager and travelled
with her in 1857 to South America They
then visited England and Sir Henry
Bishop, the husband of Lady Bishop,
having died, Schultz and Lady Bishop
were married. Schulz accompanied the
great singer on all her tours through the
United States and Mexico, riches being
showered upon the gifted artist. On
their way to Hong Kong in 1866 on the
ship Libelle they were wrecked in the
South Pacific Ocean and lived for % days
on a desert island. They then took
boats and after ten days of hardship
reached the Ladrone Islands, arriving
two months later in Hong Kong.

A BOLD FORGERY
OF Certified Check For Eighty Thou
sand Dollars.


New YORK, January ga young
man, claiming to be James Woodward of
Chicago, a guest at the Hotel Kenmore,
Albany, today asked the proprietor for
an advance of $4,000 ON a certified
check for $4,000, purporting to be
drawn by the Royal Fire Insurance of
Liverpool on the Merchants National
Bank of New York. A messenger was
sent to the Albany office of the Royal
Insurance Company with the check, re-
turned and stated the agents of the COM
pany said the check was all right. The
manager of the hotel communicated by
telephone with Manager E. F. Beddall,
of the Royal Fire Insurance Company of
this city. Beddall informed him the
check was forgery. The young man
who presented the check had meantime
disappeared, taking the forged check.
The young man as stated arrived at the
Kenmore house Tuesday night, asked
for the best rooms in the hotel, and
spent mouey freely. His baggage con-
sisted of small travelling bag which
was left at the hotel and contained only
few collars and cuffs. He did not pay
his nOCel OIL. Inc merchants
National bank has notified all
correspondents throughout the country
of the facts and directed
them to arrest the person who may pre-
sent the forged check. Manager Bed
dali said tonight: 1--WE know the young
man who presented the check and are on
his track. He was the dupe sof the man
who made out the check. The chief cul-
prit in the case was arrested at this office
today. He is a bookkeeper in the en-
ploy of the company with a salary Of
about 5000 year. We do not care to
give his name.'' The prisoners name is
James Woodward.

kansas Republican Protest.

TOPEKA, Kas., January 26.-The Re-
publicans met in joint session at noon to-
day and adopted without debate a reso-
luton providing for the appointment of
committee ''to prepare formal state
ment and an emphatic protest to the
Senate of the United States, signed by
members of this assembly protesting
against seating John Martin as senator
from this state" The protest is based
on the ground that the Republicans
yesterday were denied the right to vote
for senator, and that 10 Populists, ille-
gally seated on contested cases, voted
for Martin; therefore the election is rev.
olutionary and illegal.

afternoon the statement was made by
visitor, who had just come from the

clared that be would not give moment

that is general on this subject on the

opinion of one Senator, who declares ne

pass them, rather than permit he con-
firmation of supreme court justice

ROME, January 26.-The scandals in
connection with certain banks in this city
and Naples threaten to have far more Sc
rious consequences than were at first
deemed probable. It will be recalled
that the dispatches announced on Janua-
ry 10th the arrest of Signor Taulongo,
the governor, and Signor Lazzaroni, the
cashier of the Banca Romano of this
city. These arrests were made in conse-
quence of serious r1mors affecting the
standing ofithe bank, and they promise to
Leaf to grave scandal. The name of
Signor Crispi, the ex-prime minister, has
been mixed up in the matter, and the
public is on the qui vive for further de-
velopments. On January 22d,
Signor Cucinello, manager of
rested on the charge of embezzling
1000. 900 lire from that institution, and
on the next day the Guerrini Banking
Company closed it's doors. 1t was said,
however, that the assets of the latter in
stitution exceeded its liabilities by 1,600,-
900 lire. The suspension was alleged to
have been due to the lack Of confidence
engendered by the troubles in the Banca
Romano and the Bank of Naples.
A number of prominent men, includ-
ing ex-ministers, deputies and Journal
lists are openly charged with having re-
ceived money from the BaIca Romano
for years. It is said some newspapers
received subsidy of 10000 Ira annual
ly. A judicial inquiry is said to have
shown that the Banca Romano supplied
