KERRIGAN WILL KILL HARRISON

Peter Kerrigan promised this morning
that he would kill Detective s'Lucky" Harri-
son at precisely fifty minutes past four o'clock
this afternoon at the saloon, No. 251 Newark
street, Hcboken. Kerrigan has concluded
that he must rid the world of Harrison.
The recent disputes between the two, in
which shotguns have figured, have aggra-
waited the animosity existing between them.
'sLucky" says he will be on hand, ready to
be slaughtered. He does not doubt but Ker-
rigan will pull a.revolver on him.

NEWARK, Feb. II, 1s94.--Over 800 men as
sembled at Haeberle's Hall on Springfield
avenue last night, to see M. Apesha Fatima
in the 'tDanse Du Ventre." The affair was
under the direction of the Newark Entertain
ment Company organized for the purpose)
and tickets were sold only to friends of the
projectors; something very novel in the way
of dance being promised.
A programe of nine numbers had been
arranged. When the time came for Fatima
to appear her manager came upon the stage
and said the police had been instructed
through the police commissioners not to
allow the dance to take place.
The woman was ready to go on and he
introduced her. Fatima was in street cos
tune. She bowed off the stage amid storm
of protests. All attempts to conclude the
programme were failures. The performers
came out and were yelled and hooted at
until they were compelled to retire. The
audience waited long while and then went
home
At midnight private party was gotten
up After several attempts hall was en-
gagged Twenty nine men paid to see the
famous Turkish dancer perform. She wore
lace costume and diamond ornaments, and
went through the performance three times.

archist fugitives from the Continent saw two
suspicious characters, who were unable to
produce passports. They were placed under
arrest, and when they were searched it was
said that bombs were found in their posses

were not Anarchists. They had fled from
the Continent after committing forgeries,
and were seeking asylum in England. The

watch for them, and this led to their arrest

The reason that the men captured by the
police in the raid on the Autonomie Club last
night were subsequently released was that
the authorities could find nothing that would
support any charge against them.
