ACCUSED OF DEFRAIIDING.

II
Duluth, Sept. - An order was re-
ceiyed by the police last night to ar
rest Frederick Kreyenbuhl Of this city,
who is charged with being the proinci-
pal in a most daring attempt to defraud
several life insurance companies.
s. On July p, the story became current
that John Clark and w. B. Clegg had
been capsized while out sailing and that
Gregg had been drowned Clark told a
story of remarkable endurance, how, af-
ter the boat had capsized he chung to the
overturned craft from 10 one morning UNI
! til 5 O'Clock the next, when the boat
drifted to the north shore about eighteen
! miles from Duluth. He righted the
boat and rOwed back to this city, and
going to Krayenbuhl's house, tainted fl
the doorway. There were some very
suspicious circumstances connected with
the case. Some weeks later it developed
that Gregg's life was insured shortly be
fore the time of his disappearance for
$4,000, and that the policies were made
in favor Of Krayenbuhl
About the middle of August demand
was made for the insurance money and
the company began an investigation. Sew
eral special agents were sent here, and
very early it was decided that there
had been fraud. It was found that dur
ing til whole time Clark said he had
been drifting on the north shore the wind
was blowing in an entirely opposite d-
rection. 1t was found, too, from the
testimony of yesselmen that no one
could live i'll Lake Superior for the length
OF time Clark said he had been drifting.
The matter resolved itself into a ques-
ton whether Gregg was a party to the
fraud or whether he had been murdered
From vesselman it was finally learned
that Gregg had been seen at La Pointe.
small place on the Wisconsin shore,
some days subsequent to the drowning
episode, and from there he was traced
East. The same dispatch which ordered
the arrest of Krayenbuhl stated that
Gregg and Clark had been arrested to-
gether in Philadelphia Clark is 4
brother of one Of Duluths prominent
merchants, and all parties implicated are
people of good standing.

I IRISH FIGHT GLADSTONE.
THE AMERICAN NATIONAL LEAGUE:
AGAINST THE HOME RULE BILL.
A Manifesto Issued Declaring That
Measure a Fraud nnd Predicting
Defeat for Gladstone Mt the Polls.


Measure Fraud nnd Predicting
Defeat for Gladstone MT the Polls.
New York, Sept 1T Considerable dis
satisfaction has been evinced by the
leading members of the Irish National
league in America as to the provisions of
Gladstone's home rule bill, which was re-
jected on Friday by the house of lords
by the immense majority Of 419 to II.
The members of the opposition say
that the bill does not present the ele-.
ments of fnality, and places the Irish,
nation in a worse position than at pres
ent. The executive of the Irish National
league complains that the eyicted tenants
have been left uncared for, while the
disfranchisement~ Of twenty three Irish
seats under the bill, while the lard and
police questions 1elnain in the hands Of
the government, would seriously influence
the power of the Irish members in the
house of commons. Immediately upon
the rejection Of the home rule bill by the
house of lords the executive Of the Irish
National league decided upon issuing Il
manifesto to the Irish people in America
setting forth their views Upon the pro-
visions Of the rejected bill and their ideas
as TO the course which the National
league should adopt in the present crisis.
The manifesto says, among other things:y
'The bill submitted to the house Of
commons was practically worthless. The
imposition Oh our country Of the multi
ated skeleton which was just elected by
the house of lords would be an outrage,
and the serfs who would accept it with
thanks would merit the scorn of the ma
ton. We have no hesitation in declar-
ing that no more pcrnicious influence
has been at work than the influence of
Mr.. Gladstone in recent years, The
spirit of Irish nationality was being stead
lily destroyed by this influence fostered by
a designing agency which prefers West
Briton to an Irishman. Mr. Gladstone,
whether he appeals to the country this
year or not, WILL in the opinion of those
thoroughly acquainted with the situation,
be defeated at the polls. A great con-
vention of Irishmen from all countries
we think should be called and plan for
united action formulated and adopted
At such a convention the example of the
American patriots might be emulated and
declaration of Ireland's independence
given to the world
