BIG GALE In BRITAIN.
MANY VESSELS DRIVEN ASHORE
AND WRECKED.
At Least a Hundred Lives Lost ON
the Sea and Lnnd-PeoDle Killed fn
a Railroad Wreck Caused by the
storm.

London, Dec. PA terrible storm
swept over Great Britain Saturday
and Sunday, and many lives have
been lost.
The Manchester express on the Lon
don 4 Northwestern was In collision
with baggage train at Chelford.
The carriages were badly smashed
and thrown In all directions by the
force Of the concussion. Nineteen per-
sons are dead already and over sixty
were injured, some OF them, 1t is
feared, fatally. Many heartrending
scenes are reported. The accident was
caused by the recent storm which
has wrought so much damage through
out England. The luggage train was
first derailed about o'clock In the af-
ternoon by the force Of the gale. Be-
fore notice Of the danger could be
cent to Crewe and neighboring sta
tlOns, the express struck the baggage
cars, causing great deal of damage
to both trains. Numerous casualties
are reported at sea and ashore. Chin
neys have been blown down every
where, and in some parts of England
the wind has been blowing sixty miles
an hour. The steamer Helen Mar
has been driven ashore on the north
coast of Ireland. A dispatch from
Holyhead says that bark has been
driven ashore on the breakwater
there and 1t Is feared that the crew,
numbering sixteen men, have been
drowned
Reports received from all parts OF
Great Britain show the immense
damage that has everywhere been
caused by the recent gales. The loss
will reach tens of thousands OF
pounds. Many buildings have been
blown down and telegraph wires have
suffered greatly. Traffic has been
completely suspended in many places
on account Of the floods. Many ships
have been driven ashore by the winds.
Eight persons while attempting to es-
cape from the bark driven ashore at
Holyhead were drowned. A chimney
was blown down and it. is reported
that five persons were killed and
many injured.
Details of the storm indicate that
over 100 persons lost their lives in
different sections. 1t is impossible to
estimate the damage, as reports from
different sections of the United King
dom swell the list Of accidents and
wrecks hourly. The gale is said to
be the worst that has occurred in
thirty years
The storm now prevails on the con-
tinent, but tits not as severe as it
was in England.

KILLRD AND ROBBED.
4 Coid-Blooded Murder at Topeka, Kan.
AaN.


Topeka, Kan, Dec. 22.-The body of
Mrs. A. ID. Matson, stiff and cold and
lying In pool of her own blood, was
discovered In her home at 1853 Monroe
street this afternoon at $3.50 O'clock.
To all appearances the woman had
been dead about ten days. 1t IL un-
doubtedly case OF -blooded MUIR
der, with robbery as the incentive.
Mrs. Matson lived alone, and 1t was
generally supposed she had consider
able money about the house. A Grim
inal assault had preceded the murder.
The only person who seems to know
anything about 1t Is deaf and dumb
colored man named George Knight,
who saw two men, probably on the
evening of the 18th, enter the window
of the murdered woman's house, and
afterward saw tn aln run away. No
intelligihle account can be arrived at
from Knigh. except through his broth
er, who is the only person who can
understand him. The two will be
brought together tomorrow at the
coroner's inquest.
The first inkling of the murder was
made known this afternoon by q milk
boy, who had noticed the can of milk
be left on Mrs. Matson's doorstep ten
days ago had been untouched. lie
Immediately made known his fears to
the police. and an investigation fol-
lowed. Officers were unable to gain
admittance, and by breaking In the
rear door soon learned the cause
thereof. In little back room, lying
on her back in pool of blood long
since dried, lay the murdered woman
Two sacks of potatoes had been rudely
thrown over her head, while bundle
of rags and old clothes half covered
her body. Investigation showed the
most brutal treatment had been dealt
the woman before her life had been
taken.
Mrs Matson was a member of <he
Topeka Equal Suffrage association
and a prominent suffragist worker.
For many years she was a member
of the city board of education, and
took an active interest in the city
schools. She was at one time a city
teacher, and was very well known
locally. She was generally supposed
to have considerable money, and she
also owned five or six houses on the
East side

A Report That Green Goods Mex
Have "Done" Him.
New York, Dec. 21. - George Appo
has disappeared. Since the Lexow
committee got through with him, he
had appeared, along with ex-Divekeep-
er Tom Gould, as star attraction In
stage representation called "In the
Tenderloin." The company is playing
this week at the Peoples theater in
the Bowery.
Apo took his part, as usual, Mon.
day night. Tuesday night he could
not be found. Manager Hamilton said
he was told yesterday that Apo had
been enticed away from his home af-
ter the performance Monday night by
two men in cab. He discredited this
story, but later Appo's wife had been
to the theater inquiring for him, say
ing he had left home late Monday
night. Mr.. Hamilton said Apo had
appeared to be in great fear Of his
former companions in the green goods
business. He never left the theater
alone, and always came around very
early. Another rumor is that Apo
had been attacked on the street In
Brooklyn.

Turkey Denies.

Washington, Dec. 25. To-day the
Turkish minister furnished to the
press dispatch from his government
contradicting several recently printed
stories. The dispatch is as follows:
ut has been published that the arch
bishop Of Marash was imprisoned at
Alep, that the bishop of Hadjin, the
archbishop of Zeiatoun and Father
Jarask of Marash were condemned to
death; that Sister Elizabeth and twen-
ty-five other prisoners were under ar
rest, and that fifteen leading men of
Alep We're sent to prison. All these
assertions are without the least foun-
dation in fact, nor was the church in
Beylan closed as has been falsely re-
ported"

BRAND THE CLAIM AS FALSE.

to an Award

worlds Fair oficials Expose Pretender
to an Award.
Chicago, ILL, Dec. 24.-One Of the
odd results of the Worlds Fair is the
claim now made to awards by some
who were not even exhibitors. Off,
cials Of the Exposition have not as yet
taken final action in the matter, be-
lieving the quick wit OF the people
will detect the spurious claims. But
to the case of Eew York baking
powder, that has been widely adver-
tising an award, the attention of the
Chief Of Awards of Agriculture, has
been directed. He brands the claim of
this pretender as false, declaring
"Neither the records Of this depart
ment, nor the official catalogue of the
Worlds Columbian Exposition, show
that this New York company was not
exhibitor; consequently 1t could not
have received an award at the Worlds
Fair"
Those who fairly won the honors at
the Fair seem disposed to treat this
fraud as any other fraud should be
treated. The Price Baking Powder
Company, of Chicago, having receiv-
ed the highest award, say they are
convinced their claims, and those of
all other holders Of rightful honors,
will be fully vindicated by the public.

ARE UNDER THE BAN
Some Secret Societies Condemned by tine

Church.
New York, Dec. %. = Archbishop
Corrigan denied himself to reporters
to-day who sought to obtain his views
regarding the ecclesiastical interdic-
ton Of secret societies promulgated by
Bishop Mcdonnell of Brooklyn to q
conference of priests of his diocese
this morning. Vicar General Farley
admitted the truth of the statement
that such an order had been promul-
gated.
"The Odd Fellows, the Sons of Tenn
perance and the knights Of Pythias
have been interdicted," he said. .sThe
decree of condemnation will at once
be promulgated throughout the church.
both from the pulpit and by the press.
AS to the reasons for this action, it Is
a delicate matter to take up, and it
is sufficient to say that they were CON
demned because the archbishops evil
IDENTITY held that they. were antagonis-
tic to the church.
The understanding is that the inter-
diction of secret societies was deter
mined upon by the council of the arch
bishops of the Roman Catholic church
Ah IAS OulICO SldlGS uGlu III SllCdSO
in September, 1893. That council
formulated recommendations which
were forwarded to the pope, who in
turn laid them before conference Of
cardinals, which indorsed them, the
pope thereupon affixing his seal to a
decree of condemnation. This decree
was in the form of letter to the
archbishops and bishops of the United
States, and it was communicated
through Mgr. Satolli. Bishop Melon
nell is the first to give the decree pub
Hcity, and his couIsl will be quickly
followed by other r, elstes throughout
the country. 1t was expected that
Archbishop Corrigan would announce
the Introduction at a meeting of the
trustees of his diocese to be held to-
day at the cathedral, but no declara-
ton of such action has yet been made
