AN ACID THR0WER CAUGHT.
Miss Cavanagh's Dress Bespat-
tered in Washington Square.
Lateste, the ThrOwer, Remauded
Until To- Morrow.

The police OF the Mercer street sta
ton had an acid-thrower in jefferson
Market Court this morning.
He is an Italian named Antonio La
teste, twenty-five years old who lives at
% Sullivan street. His victim is
Ellen Cavanagh, of 400 East Twelfth
street, over whose dress ne is said to
have deliberately thrown some of the
destructive nnid last evening as she was
passing through Washington Square.
Miss Cavanagh did not appear in court
this morning to press the complaint
against l.ateste. but. on the statement OF
prisoner, he was held until tomorrow.
According to officer Brennan's story,
Miss Cavanagh said she was walking
along Washington place last evening
man following her. She had seen him
walking behind her for several blocks
When she entered the park she felt
something sprinkle her neck and, turn
ing quickly, she saw Lateste standing
about four feet from her with a bottle
in his hand. The back Of her gown was
Lrenched with some dark, ill-smelling
fluid.
she uttered shrek, which brought
Policeman Brennan to the spot. He
save chase 70 Lateste and caught him,
and took him 10 the stat'on-house,
where he was searched. Two more bot
ties of the dark fluid were found in his
pockets.
I.ateste explained to Justice Voorhis
that he had sore on his neck and used
the kerosene to rub on H.
How about the other bottles?" asked
the Justice.
- drink him" said Lateste with a
grin
Well, suppose YOU drink the con-
tents Of both bottles right here - sug-
gested Justice Noorhs
All right said the Italian, seizing
the acid bottle.
The park policeman grabbed Lateste
just in time.

Threatened WITH DYNAMITE
Military Warned Of Plot 10 blow
IN Pullman Hotel.

CHICAGO. July II Col Turner
commanding the militia stationed at
Pullman, received an anonymous let
ter this morning, warning him that the
strikers would blow M the Hotel Flor
ence at Pullman with dynamite at 3
o'clock this afternoon.
While affecting to make light Of the
threat. the military authorities arc tax
Ing every precaution to prevent its being
carried out.
That the strikers al Pullman have
planned to use dynamite, is almost
certain.
The Palace Car Company used the en-
plosive for testing burglar-proof safes,
and q large amount OF 1t was stored in
one Of the buildings OF the plant. The
workmen knew where 1t was. and last
night made an attempt io get at IT by
stealth. Failing to pass the guard. some
of them applied at the company's office
for the keys. pretending that they
wished to get out some of their per
sonal property. The request was
promptly refused, and the dynamite was
moved to another building.
1t IL feared that the strikers have
secured small quantity Of the eN-
plosive from another source.

Lacking ont for Dynamite.
In consequence of the dynamite eXplo-
sion under a guard train on the Bait
more and Ohio last night, this side OF
South Chicago, 1t has been determined
to send out two lieutenants instead OF
one with the guard train hereafter, and
in case Of a repetition OF last evenings
work, to stop the train, Immediately de-
ploy q skirmish line, and capture any
one who may be near. Two mysterious
explosions, one following closely after
the other, were heard in the vicinity Of
street about midnight. Of'icers were de-
tailed to make an investigation, but
their 1abnrs resulted In no clue. As far
as could be learned, no damage was
done
The locality from which the explosions
seemed TO come is the centre of the
anarchistic settlement ut the stock
yards. and the stock-yards police are of
the opinion that the explosions were the
results Of experiments in the use Of ex-
plosives by r rabid Anarchist.
