NEW YORK. Nav 3.-The steamer Per-
sian Monarch of the Wilson line has been
aground off Eastport since $50 last night.
To the life-sa wing crew Captain Bristow
said he did not consider the vessel in i'm
medats danger. She lies we'll in shore
and it is question il she can be fosted
even at high water. She sailed from Lon
don April II for this port. Captain Bris-
tow has telegra he'd to New York for tugs
to assist III floating the steamer. The
weather was clear and the sea calm when
the vessel struck. The captain says the
vessel went ash ore because the rndder was
broken. A fireman, however, says the
rudder did OF break until after the
steamer struck.
There are probably not more than thirty
passengers on board and very little cargo.

Given Against DIR. Never.

New YORK. May Sin the Meyer trial
to-day Attorney O'Sullivan for the defense
cross-examined Miss Gruenter. He handed
her an affidavit and asked if she recog-
nized the signature. She did as her own.
The affidavit set forth that to the best of
the signer's knowledge Dr. Meyer was a
reputable physician and stood we'll in the
community.
Joseph Kruger, who was a fellow-pas-
senger with DR.. and Mrs. Meyer on the
steamer Maasdam, which sailed September
5. 1891, from Hoboken. said DR.. Meyer and
Mrs. Meyer offered him 100 marks if he
would go with them to Baum's parents
and corroborate what he (Meyer) would
say. The witness refused.
Herman Holstein of Chicago testified that
he roomed with Brandt in 1891. He said

times. He Identified the photograph of

10 RENEWAL OF TROUBLE,
Although the Authorities Were
Kept on the Alert.
MEN NOT ALLOWED TO GATHER.
Probability That Cleveland Has Not
Yet Seen the End of
Her Woes.

CLEVELAND. May 3.-Nine hundred
men slept in the armories last night with
sentries on duty watching and ready to
arouse them. There was no renewal OF
the rioting. The authorities feared an
outbreak to-day, and three of the largest
m otor-cars were placed under the orders
of the Director of the Police. AT 1880
squad OF police under Captain Gates was
sent to Newberg, where the large iron
mills are located and where disorder was
threatened. The Poles of that district
met last night and determined to raid the
wire mills to-day. The military were In
readiness to go to the aid of the police
should the police force be inadequate TO
handle the mob The foreigners who
compose the dsorderly element live In
Newberg principally. The socialist agl-
tators have during the winter secured
large number of converts among them.
Long before the earliest rscrs started
downtown to-day The police had taken
possession of the public square. No one
was allowed to stand in one place Tor any
length of time. Little knots of yesterdays
rioters gathered here and there. but we're
dispersed by the police.
The first trouble was at the CleVeiahu
Spring Bed Company. where the gang at
3empted to drive out workmen. a patrol
wagon full of officers was dispatched TO
the scene, but the crowd had already dis
persed.
While Superintendent Allen of the
Standard Foundry and friends were driv-
ing to the works volley OF stones were
thrown at the carriage. which was badly
battered. a shot was fred from Casey
Bridge The crowd assembled about the
works was composed of striking molders
and sympathiZers.
AS the day wore on. il became evident
there would be no general rioting. The
military will be kept under arms for sew
eral days.
Four hundred men struck at the III. P.
Nail Works to-day because one man was
discharged.
At noon on the Cleveland and Pittsburg
ore docks the rioters tried TO drive the
workmen away, but the police dispersed
the mob.

plauded and hurled back the epitbets ap-
piled to Mr. Coudert by his opponents
from the body of the hall. An old man
jumped up, shook his fist at Mr.. Coudert
and shouted:
1--WE we're paying the taxes while you
people were robbing US.
At this point there was a tumult. A
chorus of Put him out" burst out and
everyone jumped uD. Half a dozsn police
men rushed up and seized the man, carry
ing him to the rear of the hall. Confusion
reigned for few moments. Finally Mr..
Coudert put everyone in good humor by
saving that bad as the income tax was be
was willing to swallow it for the sake of
the tariff reduction.
The meeting had been called by repre-
sentatives of forty-two business houses of
this city. Ex-Secretary of the Treasury
Charles S. Fairchild called the meeting to
order and denounced the Senators respon-
sible for the delay. He thought the in
come tax unwise, but Their were many
things worse than it. one of which was to
have no income at all. which was what the
present delay would lead to.
James Carter delivered the principal
speech of the evening. He defended the
income tax as the most just and equitable
form of taxation. Mr.. Carter denounced
Senators Hill aud Murphy for their atti-
tude toward the Wilson BILL This seemed
to please the large audience hugely. Reso-
lutions in substance as follows were
passed:
THAT we should prefer a more consistent
and courageous measure OF tariff reform than
is now pending, but we urge that 1t be passed
10 final vote so that we may be relieved from
the extortions and expressions of the NJ cKin-
ley tariff.
THAT while we are opposed TO the income
tax provisions we are more opposed to the ex-
istIng system of the tariff taxation which casts
on The working classes nine-tenths Of The bur
den Of taxation and an enormous tribute for
the benefit Of the few.
That while we desire the income-tax clause
10 be stricken out, We deem the income tax no
excuse for the vote OF any Democrat against
the bill as whole, and demand that every
Democratic Senator and Representative vote
for he repeal OF the Mckinley law.
THAT the defeat Of the bill by Democratic
votes would be disaster 10 the nation and an
act Of treason 10 the Democratic party"

Death from Temblors.

ATHENS, May 3-There was another
severe shock of earthquake last night. It
lasted 16 seconds and was felt in nearly all
of the districts which had previously suf

There was no loss of life, as most of the
people who previously occupied the houses
were camping in the open country. There
nave been numerous curious results of the
earthquakes. In Aidpao fully 100 fresh
hot springs nave been opened, the water
coming from them ranging from 115 to $50

Suicide of an Examiner in the De-
partment of Justice.

CARSON, May 3-Shortly before II
O'Clock last night a pistol shot startled
people IN front of the Arlington Hotel. On
the porch was the body of W. L. Hazen,
an examiner of the United States Depart
ment of Justice, with smoking pistol in
his hand and bleeding from hole in the
right temple. He died in few minutes.
The Coroner was Immediately summoned
and found papers and letters left by the
suicide on the bed. One letter was ad-
dressed to a hotel man, one To son
and one to United States Marshal Humph-
reys. asking for job for his son Harry.
There were also found several poems. all

The letter to the hotel-keeper also inti-
mates this, but that he was dissuaded by

cation: "W. E. HaZeD, born Clev Gland,
n. Y. 1853. has held many positions OF
responsibility and trust. In 1883 accepted

Hazen was of respondent nature. but
was genial and apparently happy. He
had some literary talent and leaves wide
circle of friends by an acquaintance in
forty different States. His record with the
Department of Justice is above reDroacb,
and he and J. W. Nightingale were the
only ones not removed at the change of

could have remained in the position he
occupied manv years had he not chosen to
resign his position with the world.

bitches. Mr.. Dilman has two associates,
j. NJ. Buckley of Spokane and ii. Ii.

on 10000 acres of Northern Pacific Rail-

pose that the chambers of commerce of

policy of Italy. he emphaticaly denied
that the liberty Of Italy was In any way

eve have nothing to conceal in regard
to our obligations toward our allies. We
solely propose defensive action 10 case of
provocation, and can say that an out
break of war is more improbable than
ever, because no European sovereign de-
sires war. Moreover. public opinion
throughout the world is opposed to war"
He declared Italy ought to be friendly to
France and Russia, and ia conclusion
said: Italy relies upon her allies not for
defense, but for mutual protection of their

Smith of New Jersey and his remarks were
received with great deal of satisfaction,
for While lie said he was not satisfied with
the bill and " as unalterably opposed to the
income tax. he was ready to support the
measure with the amendments which bad
been agreed upon, though he claimed that
what were called concessions bv the South
ern and Western men were but small CON-
pared with the concessions which Eastern
Senators made in supporting the bill with
the income tax provision.
Senator Jones said that the sugar sehed-
ule bad been changed so as to provide for
an ad-valoyem duty of 40 per cent and an
additional duty of an eighth of a cent on
refined sugar, with a penalty of tenth
of cent on sugar imported from cOun-
tries paying a bounty on sugar under the
present law, with the bounty to stand
until the 1st Of January next. BE said
that the ad-valorem tax was not m materially
different from the sugar provision in the
pending bill. He also stated that large
number OF other amendments had been
made, but did not mention them in detail,
except to say that in go case had duties
been fixed so high as in the Mckinley
law. He said that many concessions had
been made to the Eastern and Northern
Democrats by changes from ad vaIOrem
to specific duties, and that il was hoped
that when the new bill should be presented
it would command the solid Democratic
vote in the Senate.
Senator Hill was not placated. He
spoke only short time. but it was long
enough for him TO convince the caucus
that his vote would not be for the bill if
the income tax remained in it. He said
his position was we'll known; he had
made his statement before the country
and there was nothing to add to what he
had said. Whatever the so-called con-
cessions might be they could bot compen-
safe for a rider in the bill which neither
the needs of the country nor the party
demanded. Without saying so in direct
terms there was none who listened to him
who believed he would support the BILL
The vote showed what those who had
called the caucus expected. The confer
ences that have been going on among the
Democratic Senators for two weeks have
given the leaders the information as to
how the different Senators stood, but they
wanted official caucus action upon what
had been agreed on in the conference
room. The roll was called in order TO
place all on record. and 81 Senators voted
in favor of the resolution and 1, Senator
Hill, against it. The vote was received
with genuine qualification. as many of the
Senators believed it signifed that the
tariff bill would pass.
