The county attorney says he has reason to
believe that he is one OF the worst crimi-
mails in this section of the couatry and Will
prosecute him for all there is in the evi-
dence, which is quite strong.
The most peculiar thing about the Siegler
case. however is his efforts to make the
people believe that be is insape. A few
days ago DR.. St. John half way believed
that he was. The doctor was standing
in the rotary door. when the man
at the crank began to move the rotary
around and Ia order to escape being
squeezed between the bars he jumped into
Sieglers cell and could not get out. Sieg-
ler, playing insanity, jumped At st. John
like Il raving maniac and began TO claw
him in very dramatic manner. He then
pulled knife aud braudished it over the
doctors head aud seemed to be aiming at
his heart when the doctor took haad In
the fight and the scuffis between them
was long and exciting. Finally the doctor
tumbled to Sieglers racket and told him
to let up or be would Kill him ''Siegler,'
he said, you are trying 10 play insane
You can't cut it and you might as well
give up" Seglar being a little tired of
the scuffie himself yielded and after the
rotary had made the circui; the doctor
jumped out and was glad that ne had
parted company with Sieglar although lie
knew ne was not insane.

fallen the steamship. although we have
no definite information regarding her

for this port was a mistake. ! am OF the
opinion that she sailed from Havre for
Marseilles."

800 MEN LOCKED OUT
Appropriation for Navy-Yard
Work Is Exhausted.
Orders from Washington Cause a
Suspension Of Labor.
Unless Congress Acts Speedily 500
More Must Go.

One of the greatest cuts in the me-
chanical force of the Brooklyn Navy
Yard was made this morning. when over
500 men were locked out for lack of
funds.
The men were all employed under a
recent act Of Congress, which made an
appropriation known as the Increase
of the Navy" and which was devoted
to the construction of new battle-shlps
and cruisers. This appropriation has
reached its limit, and the men will be
out until Congress makes a new APP
preparation.

Before they left they were assured that
as soon as Congress made. a new APP
preparation, they would all be. taken
back. This was little consolation for
the locked-out employees. as 1t is not be-
lieved that another appropriation will
be made until the next session Of the
House.
There is considerable anxiety felt by
the remaining employees. for. unless
Congress takes special action within
thirty days. 500 more men will be laid
off. These employees have to depend
upon Congress making special provision
for them until the Naval Appropriation
bill Is passed.
The cessation Of work will materially
interfere with the new ships now In
