ELECTION REJOICINGS END IN STRIFE
The Gar Protests Devotion to
His Country.
GENERAL LATE KILOGRAMS

CHICAGO, November THE attempt by
q gang Of toughs to steal a ballot box at III
Oak street at 1915 this morning has resulted
in murder. Gus. Colleander, the Judge of
the election who was shot in the abdomen,
died some hours later. He was a saloon
keeper. The police think that they have one
of the party who did the shooting.
At the Emergency Hospital is a man with
two bullet wounds, one in the thigh and one
near the heart. He was brought In early
this morning and, as he was unable to give
an account of himself, he was Immediately
suspected. His name is withheld by the
police. j. F. Waters, who was shot In the
arm. is well enough to finish counting the
ballots Contrary to first reports, none OF
the men wore masks.

falling through the air from collapsed
balloon. Far below were the monument
and the Capitol. 1t was entitled "A Busted
Boom"
Cartoons I'm a Flash.
AS the news arrived 1t was illustrated by
a corps of Star artists, who made rough
and ready cartoons, hastily sketched on
gelatine films and flashed out upon the
screens almost as quickly as the news that
suggested them. Some of these cartoons
made at a moments notice are reproduced
in The Star today.
A Dense Crowd.
When this was tried on the crowd 1t
worked like a charm and was a spark to
the combustible material of their enthusi-
asm. Small boys danced a hornpipe or
double shuttle, If they had room, grown
men cheered until they were hoarse and
hats were tossed in the air.
In the crowd there was a noticeable num-
Der of women, and they were as much in
terested in the returns as were their hus-
bands, brothers, or other girls brothers, as
the case might be. Every once in a while
there would be feminine cheer. Take It
all in all 1t was a well-behaved crowd, and
the policemen who were present In large
numbers had-little to do beyond reading the
returns.
The crowd was so derse that 1t was all
the poor gripmen could do to get their cars
through at all. Men with signal lanterns
went ahead to clear the crowd away, and

American Passengers Taken From n
French Steamer.

YOKOHAMA, November THE Ameri-
can passengers who We're made prisoners
at Kobe by tho Japanese who seized the
French steamship Sydney, from Marseilles
for this port, on suspicion that she had
contraband of war on board, transhipped
from the British steamship Gaelic, from
San Francisco, are Messrs. HOWE and
Browne, and the Chinese passenger is
Cham Tam Moore 1t is stated that the
latter was recently interpreter to the Chi
nese legation at Washington.
The commander of the Sydney was in
formed that If he gave up his passengers
he might proceed. He refused to do SO, and
a strong force of armed japanese marines
was sent on board the steamship In spite
of the protest of the captain and the
French consul, the japanese seized the pas
sengers mentioned and conveyed them as
prisoners on board Japanese warship.

were feasting their eyes on the latest bule-
tins, which told which way the battle was
going.
And what crowd 1t was, to be sure!
There were thousands Of people packed into
one solid mass, which stretched from the
sidewalk In front of The Star Office clear
across to the fence that surrounds the en-
bryo post office. Two years ago it was es-
timated that as many as 5000 people took
advantage of The Stars bulletins to learn
the latest from the seat of war In the pres
idential election which swept Mr.. Cleveland
into the White House. There were easily
twice as many people on hand last night
and interest was at fever heat all the time
from the moment when the first bulletins
were spread on the canvas until the hour
came for shutting up, when there was
nothing more that was worth the telling
When the news of republican successes be-
gan to come in many a cheer went up, but
1t was not long before the people got tired
of shouting. EVeryth was coming their
way.
A Republican Crowd.
Their way? Yes; for to the careful OBJ
server It was evident that the crowd was
republican to the backbone There was
more than one way Of proving this to be
the case.
The Star reporter had been out scurrying
around town, and had had little chance to
observe the tastes and feelings of the null
titude that was assembled in front Of the
building. In the front room everything was
turned upside down for the time being to
make room for the stereopticons, the tel
egraph tickers and the penmen who were
busy bulletining the latest kilograms from
all parts Of the country as they came over
the wires.

car is showing great activity in answering
the many kilograms of coincidence and ex-
pressions of loyalty which he receives, and
the impression prevails that he is trying to
demonstrate the fact that he is courteous
and genial and that Russia is extremely
loyal. Replying to a message of sympathy
and loyalty from the mobiles of Moscow, the
car said:

The stars Service.
There were many words OF praise for the
satisfactory way in which The Star pre-
scented the news. And really no such elab-
crate arrange ments had ever before been
made in this city to give the public the
latest and fullest returns IN anything like
such completeness. Instead of one as here
tofore, there were two stere OF ticons at
work all the time, so that there was no de-
lay in getting the bulletins before the eyes
of the crowd. q
1t required two screens as well, but they
were so large and the bulletins so plainly
and legibly written, that they were easily
read at any distance, and everyone could
see what was going on no matter how far
he might be from the canvas. Up till 10
o'clock the crowd kept increasing steadily,
and the streets were crowded until a late
hour with cheering ard marching men. 1t
was night that will rot be soon forgotten
by those who were wise enough to come
down and take advantage of The Stars in
vitation to be on hand and learn how the
election was going.
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1894-11-07

II became evident that everything was going
one way. and all that kept the crowds was
q desire to hear fuller returns and to see
how big a majority the victors would be
able to run up. The two extras that The
Star issued went off like. hot cakes and
brought the tidngs of republican success
into every section of the city within a very
few minutes of the time the result was
known down town. 1t was long after 2
O'Clock when The Star stopped printing
bulletins, but there was still big crowd on
hand, and there would have been any num-
Der of people ready to stay on till daylight
II there had been anything more to learn.
In Front of The Star Office.
Last evening as a Star reporter boarded
an avenue car, headed for the republican
headquarters on Capitol Hill, and the car
began to push its way slowly through the

ested in all that was going on about him,

Nicholas Grants Amnesty TO Participants

By the united BreSS.
st. Petersburg, Nov. 27.-The czars
manifesto to the Russian people issued
yesterday contains these words: "Solic-
itous for the destinies of our new reign
we deemed it we'll not to delay the full
fillment of our hearts wish, the legacy
sacredly left by our father, now resting
with God, nor to defer the realization
of the joyful expectations of our whole
people that our marriage be hallowed
by the benediction of our parents and
that 1t be blessed by the sacrament
of the Holy church.
The manifesto contains important
points relating to improvements in the
condition of all connected with hus-
bandry. The mobiles and the peasants
interest on farmers loans from the
Imperial Agrarian bank are reduced
from Az to per cent, and various
facilities are conceded for the redemp-
tion of debts. To peasants, certain
! debts to the crown and arrears of taxa
ton are RENTED. The czar also wholly
RENTS all arrears of taxes and fines
and mitigates or shortens sentence OF
| Imprisonment, police supervision, and
deportation at hard labor. The prose
cution for treason of offenders who
have remained undiscovered for fifteen
years will be abandoned. The indul.
gences to political prisoners will be
decided on after report has been sub.
mitted to the czar by the minister of the
interior. Amnesty is granted to the
participants in the Polish rebellion OF
1863, and they will be permitted to re.
side anywhere in Russia. Their civi
rights, but not their property, will bC
restored.

Mrs. Harris skull Is Fractured by a
Vicious Animal.
Special to the Scranton Tribune.
Forest City, Nov. 27.-News was re-
ceived in this place today Of peculiar
and fatal accident that happened to
Mrs. Thomas Harris, of Clifford Mon
day. Mr.. Harris was away from home
and upon returning not finding his wife
home he made a search through the
house, and also at several of the neigh
bors, but nothing could be learned of
Mrs. Harris absence.
Going to q field with some of his
neighbors on search, Mr.. Harris and
the others were Mortified to find the
lifeless body of Mrs. Harris with her
skull fractured and some bones broken.
Rumors were soon afloat that foul
murder had been committed But the
real cause Of the death soon presented
itself.
A vicious old ram that Mr. Harris
owns was seen coming madly across the
field and made an attack on Mr.. Harris.
The animal was finally corralled and
blood was discovered on the creature S
head and horns From all appear
ances 1t was clearly evident that Mrs.
Harris had been trampled and butted
to death.

COACHER WOODRUFF ILL.,.
Captain Knipe win BE in Place Tomorrow

and Colbert viii Be Sent to Left
End.
By the United Press
Philadelphia, Nov, 27,-It was author
itively stated today that Captain
Knipe would certainly be in his regular
place at left half back in the game
against Harvard. This will send Gel
bert to left end, and thus make the line
up against Harvard exactly like that of
the Princeton game.
The only other man whose prime
physical condition is doubtful is right
end Rosengarten, who is suffering with
Il severely strained arm received in the
Cornell game,
No news was received from the eleven
at the Water Gap today excepting the
rather startling item that Coach George
Woodruff was very Ill with intermittent
fever Woodruffs illness serves to still
more strongly call attention to the i'm
mense physical and mental strain he
has been under this season. The sue
cess of the team is due in great meas
ure to his originating such a style of
both offensive and defensive play as
best suited the material offered for
players.
The trouble over officials still con-
tinues, neither the referee nor umpire
having been decided on for the Thanks
giving Day game. Originally AleXand-
er Moffat, of Princeton, and Paul Da-
shiel, Of Lehigh, were settled upon for
referee and umpire. Moffats decisions
in the Yale-Haward game were so dis
tasteful to the Harvard officials that
they have absolutely refused to allow
him to act. They have also objected to
Dashiel, though the latter is perfectly
acceptable to Pennsylvania. 1t is stat
ed on good authority that Laurie Bliss,
OF Yale, will referee the game.
The Pennsylvania team returns to-
morrow evening from the Water Gap.
The players will go Immediately to the
training house. No. visitors will be al
lowed to see the players, and the men
will be compelled to retire at once upon
their arrival home.

the Meeting Held Last Night.

the Meeting Held Last Night.
A meeting of the Board of Associated
Charities was held last evening, when
E j. Lynott presided. j. r. Cohen, on
behalf of the reception committee, re-
ported that everything was arranged
for DR.. Walks lecture at the Young
Mems Christian Association hall on Fri
day.
An important report was presented
by the committee on information, who
presented the tickets to be distributed
to residents of the city with a view to
decreasing the begging nuisance. The
board urges all citizens to send beg
gars and applicants for assistance to
the office of the society, at the same
time giving the applicant one of the
tickets, with their names written there
on.
Assistant Treasurer Phillips reported
a balance of $S76.46 in hand. Mrs. Dug
gan, the agent submitted a long re-
port dealing with thirty-nine eases,
several of which We're characterized as
unworthy of assistance.
Laekawanna Hospital Ovcrcrowdcd.
Mrs. Duggan reported a case where
application had been made for the ad-
mission of woman to the Lackawanna
hospital, but as it would involve a de-
tentiOn of three months, she could not
be received owing to the overcrowded
state of the women's wards. 1t was in
cidentally suggested that the Moses
Taylor hospital authorities should be
approached upon the admission of pa
tients, inasmuch as it had been in
formally announced that cases would be
| received outside the Delaware, Lacka-
wanna and Western and Lackawanna
Iron and Steel companies. Out of the
| thirty-nine cases reported by Mrs
Duggan, twenty-siX were worthy and
assisted. An application for the posi-
| tion Of assistant to the agent was re-
ceived and filed and will be considered
at the next meeting. A communication
from DR.. Walk who is to lecture for the
benefit of the Associated Charities Fri
day evening in the Young Mems Chris
tian Association building, stated that
the only expense attached to his visit
will be for travelling and other expenses.
A vote of thanks was rendered teach
ers and scholars of No. 80 school for a
donation of large quantity of provl-
sons which will be distributed among
the needy poor.
The matter of maintaining an employ
ment bureau in connection with the
regular work Of the association was re-
ferred to the secretary and agent with
instructions to report at the next meet
ing.
After rendering a vote of thanks to
the trustees of the Albright Librarian
building for the use of the library hall
for the recent annual meeting, the ses-
sion adjourned.

San Francisco, Nov. 27-Correspond-
ence of the United Press per steamer
Oceanic:
Honolulu, Nov. 20.-The Hawaiian
government possesses evidence to prove
that the new alleged conspiracy to re-
store the Queen Is a somewhat formid
able, but not enough to justify arrests.
No danger of any actual attempt is
now apprehended. 1t is not believed
possible that any hostile expedition can
or will be procured at San Francisco to
aid the royalists. Any such force from
abroad would no doubt be summarily
dealt with by an American warship in
port. What the British man-of-war
Hyacinth would do is not clear. 1t is
believed that she was detained from her
intended cruise to the South Pacific by
apprehension of trouble here.
The United States steamship York
town arrived yesterday in less than
eight days from San francisco. She is
expected to sail for Korea on Nov. %.
1t is hoped that the Bennington may
arrive soon to protect American inter-
ests should any trouble arise.
