War AGAINST THE BROKERS
LONDON POLICE TRYING TO KEEP
THROCKMORTON STREET
CLEAR
LIVELY RUMPUS CAUSED BY At
TEMPTING TO CHECK CURB
STONE OPERATIONS.

LONDON, March 21.-For three even
ings past Throckmorton street in the bust
ness portion of London, a thoroughfare
where, after hours, curbstone market is
held, has been a scene OF great disorder.
Throckmorton street being quite narrow,
the assemblage of brokers almost com
pletely blocked it from P. NJ. to $50 P. NJ.
On Tuesday and Wednesday evenings
there was no serious trouble although the
police were vigorously chaffed.
This evening, however, when the brokers
gathered in Throckmorton street, the no
lice diverted vehicles unnecessarily into
that thoroughfare with the view of dis
persing the crowd. Mr.. Paxton, a promi-
nent member of the Stock Exchange, ex-
postulated with police inspector and
this caused renewal of the disorder. re-
sulting in the arrest of Paxton. The ar
rest caused great excitement and a
crowd of brokers attempted to
rescue the prisoner, who had to be taken
to the police station through by street,
The brokers seemed pleased that a promi-
nent man of the Stock Exchange was ar
rested, declaring that the question whether
Throckmorton street can be used after
hours as a market will now be settled. The
general opinion expressed is that the
police will be worsted, as a market has
been held in that street without interior
ence for years, the street dealings being
chiefly in American and South American
securities.

CLIPPED OUT ALL THE GOLD.
SYSTEMATIC STEALING CARRIED ON
BY THE MCCLOSKEY
BROTHERS.
THEY CLEANED UP A LITTLE For
TUNE AT Pixies PEAK BEFORE
DISCOVERED.

COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo, March
21.-Solon McCloskey and fremont Nc
Closkey, arrested at Cripple Creek on the
charge of stealing ore from the Union
Gold Mining Company, were brought to
this city and released after furnishing $4,000
bail each. The complaint alleges that sys-
tematic stealing was carried on for about
one year and aggregates sum of between
$50, 900 and 100000
The McCloskey brothers had lease on
the main workings of the Pixies Peak
lode, which they secured from the Union
Company. Some time ago the royalty on
ore from the lease decreased to very low
figure.
The company began an investigation
which ended in the arrest of the brothers.
1t is claimed that their method was to
chip off gold-bearing rock from the quartz
they mined and subject it to a process of
their own in order to get the gold out of it.
The ore they had subjected to this test was
then, it is charged, mixed with common
rock on the dump and shipped to the
smelters. Consequently the smelter re-
turns were not half what they would have
been had they not the greater part of the
gold been Clipped out of the quartz, the
retorts thus secured being kept by the
miners, who did not have to share the
profits

PROMISE SUIT.

BOSTON, March 21.-The Adams House
suicide was this noon positively identified
as Ada Hathaway by three women
residents of this city who called at the
undertakers rooms. One of the women
stated that she had met the dead girl two
years ago and that she knew she was in
love with "Dick" Laird and she believed
unrequited affection and financial troubles
caused the suicide.
PITTSBURG, March 21.-The Identified
ton Of the woman who committed suicide

| which first came to the surface in
this city on August last. On the evening

& Ray and had a long conv -rsation with
Richard Laird, one of the partners. What
passed between them is not known but
Laird was seen to push her through the
door, when she tried to force her way back
again, and the police took her in charge
On the way to the police station she
placed to her mouth handkerchief satu-
rated with chloroform, but it was taken
away from her before any harm was done.
On the morning after her arrest she
promised to leave town, and was escorted
by an officer to the hotel where she had
been stopping. Upon reaching her room
she placed revolver to her breast and
threatened to kill herself if any one APP
preached her. Finally after much persua-
sion she was provided with a ticket and
$40 by Laird and took train for Boston,
but on arriving at Philadelphia she took
the first train back to Pittsburg The fol
lowing day she retained an attorney and
entered suit against Laird for the part he
took in forcing her to leave the city, and

CAUCUS NOMINEE.

DOVER. Del, March 21.-There was an.
other sensation at the State House to-day
when the two branches of the Legislature
met in joint session to nominate Senator.
All of the Democrats deserted Chancellor
Walcott, the caucus nominee, and cast their
votes for Edward Ridgely of Dover.
When the last ballot was taken yester-
day, six of Higgins supporters, who had
temporarily deserted his cause for E. G..
Bradford, returned to their first choice and
the ex-senator received seven votes at the
close. To-day there were two ballots and
Mr.. Higgins was only given one vote, a
new man, Benjamin Fields of Wilmingto
receiving seven of the Republican votes.
Addick's lines remain unbroken, his origi-
nal supporters sticking to him. The hall
was crowded and the injection of new
names into the fight provided much food
for gossip and speculation.
