IT IS A PROBABLE MURDER,
MICHAEL MALONEY IS SUSP EOTED
 OF KILLING HIS HIFE.

She Was Found Face Downward in a Store Room With Blood Triclcling From Her
 Mouth and Nose-There Were Imprlnts
 of Fingers on Her ThrOat-Belief That She Was Strangled.
 South Norwalk April 15.-Although only superficial examination has been made of the remains of Mrs. Michael Maloney, whose dead body was found this morning on the first floor of her home in ten-family tenement in the Dublin district, Saugatuck, evidence ap- pears to be overwhelming that the wo- man was murdered and that her hus- band committed the crime.
 Maloney says he did not see his wife alive after she left their apartments at noon to attend an Easter celebration in an Italian familys rooms adjacent, and that he had not left his bed since yesterday owing to rheumatism, which had kept him indoors several days. Later Maloney stated that he took all his meals yesterday at the home of @ friend named Williams some distance away, and all other tenants in the build ing assert that Mrs. Maloney joined her husband as late last night as nine o'clock.
 The dead woman was found lying facc downward in a room used as store room, and blood was trickllng from her mouth and nose. There were bruises on the face and imprints of fingers on her throat. The medical examiner be- ieves that the woman was strangled, and hints that the dirt on her clothing indicates that after she was killed up- stairs she was dragged through the un carpeted and dirty rooms and halls to the apartments where her body was found
 Considerable mystery surrounds the affair and the authorities are setting to work to unravel 1t. Maloney is under police surveillance and will not be d. lowed to leave the house.

THERE IS NO DEAL.
Oil Win Continue High Unless the Pro
 ductiOn Increases.

Oil Will Continue High Unless the Pro- duction Increases.
 New York, April 15.-The great rise
 in petroleum has been accompanied by reports that it was engineered by the Standard Oil company in pursuance of a deal with the Russian producers and
 to crush out domestic competition. S. c. T. Dodd, counsel for the Standard company, said this afternoon:
 There is no deal with the Russian producers and there is no effort to crush out competition at home. The consumption is simply greater than the production. The demand is at least ten thousand barrels day in excess of the output. There used to be constantly outstanding pipe line certificates for 40, ,000 900 to 50,000,000 barrels of oil whereas there are now less than D. 00,000. The price at which certificates are selling on the exchanges practically fixes the field price. The high price of oil will stimulate development work There never was such activity in the Pennsylvania field. There is a differ ence of opinion as to whether that field is exhausted The largest production Is in West Virginia, which is spoken of as being in the Pennsylvania field. The best prospect of an increase in pro- duction is in West Virginia
 Pennsylvania has been pretty well bored. There is great deal of Ohio oil, but the crude yields only 33 per cent. of Illuminating fluid, while the Pennsylvania crude yields nearly 90 per cent In Europe there is an ob- jection to Ohio oil The Russian oil is very much like the Ohio oil. The Rus sian oil has almost absorbed the mar kets east of the Red Sea. It also com petes with the American oil in all the European markets.
 "Oll will continue high unless there is an increase in the production beyond what anybody at present looks for. Current prices are the highest since the Bradford field was struck. It was the striking of that field which originally reduced the price of oil. The Stan dard will make it's return under the income tax law, but it will probably contest the law It will hold that as oil is a direct product of the land it comes in the same category as rent"

THE WAGE QUESTION.
Cotton Manufacturers to Meet to Consider
 the Matter.


 Fall River, Mass, April 15.-Manu- facturers are noticed tonight of a meet ing of the Cotton Manufacturers asso- citation called for tomorrow afternoon to consider the wage question.

Nicaragua Ignores One of the Propositions
 of Great Britain.

 of Great Britain.
 Washington, April 15.-Particulars as to the contents of Nicaragua's recent reply to the British uitimatum have been received here Nicaragua, while definitely agreeing to none>of the speci- ho demands of Great Britain comedies the applicability of the principal of ar bitration to some of the acts com mitted in the Mosquito territory, and suggests in the most friendly tone poss- ible that an impartial commission of arbitrators be constituted for all the grounds of complaint
 Nicaragua points out that the decrees of exile against British subjects, which Great Britain remanded should be can celled internationally, had already been annulled before the formal request of Great Britain had been received. Nicaragua, although assuring Great Britain of cordial desire to give com plete satisfaction neither promises to pay the various sums demanded for in- 1uries inflicted on British subjects as stipulated by Lord Kimberly nor de- cllnes to do so, but agrees to fair and just settlement of claims that shall be recommended by an impartial arbitra- tion board
 Great Britain's proposition excluding from the arbitration "a citizen of any American republic" is ignored in Niea- ragua's reply.
 The communication is regarded in diplomatic circles as a skilful move on Nicaragua's part,
