A PATIENT HUSBAND.
Margaret Mather That Was, Mrs.
Pabst That II, Horsewhips
Her Husband,

MINIATURES, WIS.,, Oct. 3.-Mrs.
Gustave Pabst, formerly Margaret
Mather, the actress, created sem
sation near their home, at Twenty
ninth and Cedar streets, yesterday
afternoon by striking her husband,
a son Of the. wealthy brewer, sew
eral times with a horsewhip. What
the cause of the trouble was, no one
seems to know, but numerous resi-
dents in the vicinity were eye-wit-
nesses to the alteration which be-
gan in buggy in which the couple
were riding and was ended at the
corner of Twenty-fourth and State
streets, where Mr.. Pabst wrenched
the whip from his wife's hand as
the latter struck him blow full
in the face.
Mr.. and Mrs Pabst were driving
along 9th street about noon
when suddenly, just as they were
about to turn into Cedar street to-
ward their home, Mrs. Pabst
grabbed the whip from the socket
and doubling 1t struck Mr.. Pabst
full in the face. Mr.. Pabst jumped
out Of the buggy and started down
the street. The lady drove the
horse to a post, hitched it and fol-
lowing her husband, overlook
him block away where she struck
him four times I'm the face. Young
Pabst then wrenched the whip
from her hand and threw it away.
But the one-sided battle was by
no means ended, for she then
clinched her fist and planted blow
from the shoulder square on his
nose. Then Mr.. Pabst moved on
at a rapid pace, the lady following.
The affair took place in fashion,
able part OF the city and was wit
messed by a large number of peo-
pie.
Gustave Pabst and Margaret
Mather were married in Kenosha,
Wis.,, in November, 1892, but the
wedding was kept secret for several
months, creating great sensation
when 1t finally became known.
The bride soon after left the
stage, and has lived quietly with
her.husband in this city. At mid
night last night Capt. Fred. Psbst
and his son Gustave, called at all
of the newspaper offices, and denied
emphatically that there was any
truth in the horsewhipping story.
Col. Gustave Pabst said: "My wife
did not strike me. There was no
alteration, and there is absolutely
no truth in the story"

ARMENIAN MASSACRES.
MORE BLOODY WORK OF THE TURKS.
Earthquakes Add Horror to the
Deplorable Condition of the Per-
secuted Christians.

CONsrANTINoPLE, Oct. 3.-Five
hundred arrests have been made in
connection with the recent rioting
Of Armenians here. The govern.
ment is greatly alarmed, and the
garrison is kept under arms.
CoNsTANTINoPLE, Oct. 3.-To
add to the state OF terror prevail
ing here slight earthquake shock
was experienced here, yesterday.
This, with rioting and bloodshed
and the Imprisonment OF about 500
Armenians, the killing Of prison
ers in cold blood, and the presence
of troops under arms at all points,
is well calculated to excite even
the most phlegmatic Turk.
The riots and blood shedding
which began Monday was renewed
Tuesday evening in spite Of all
precautions. Tuesday the principal
rioting was the work OF NOLAN.
medan theological students, who
chased and beat with bludgeons
every Armenian they met.
During Tuesday . mob of Softas
and Turks attacked the house of an
Armenian, Kassim Pasha, storming
the building and threatening its
distinctions and killing several
persons. This mob also sacked a
cafe. frequented by Armenians and
twenty Of these unfortunate peo-
pie were beaten to death with
bludgeons. Not single policeman
appeared on the scene aud no at
tempt was made to save the lives
of the Armenians.
Naturally Armenians in Con,
stantinople and its vicinity are
terror stricken and put no faith in
the assurances OF protection from
further violence at the hands OF
Turkish mobs. Many OF them
sought refuge in churches where
they were earnestly addressed by
their clergy who enjoined them to
be calm and to give the Turks no
further pretexts for attackin &
them.
The authorities have stationed
troops and police at every threat
ened point and asserted this morn
ing that there is no danger of any
further disturbances. This how,
ever, is not generally believed.
The German gunbost Lorely is
held at the disposal of the German
embassy. Five Armenian prison.
ers were killed. At least 200 were
killed in the riots.

The Territory for the Fight.

ARDMoRE, L. T., Oct. 3.-The
Chickasaw tribal authorities are
understood to be favorable to
allowing the Corbett-F itzsimmons
mill to take place in this nation,
for satisfactory pecuniary con-
sideration. Kilgore, the Federal
judge at Ardmore, claims there
are no legal impediments so far as
his Jurisdiction is concerned.
There is no tribal law which pro-
hibits prize fighting. Colbert's
ferry, another prospective point, is
on the Red river, this side Of the
Texas border, and is only eight
or ten miles from Denison, Tex.

coRBETT AND BRADY TALK.
Won't GO to Mexico Without Cast
iron Guarantee - May Try
the Territory.


ATLANTA, Ca, Oct. 3.-When
Champion James ]. Corbett was
shown the dispatch announcing
that both houses of the Texas Leg
islature had passed the anti-prize
fight bill, he said: "In the absence
of definite information as to the
exact text of the bill which the
Texas Legislature passed, / cannot
very well give an answer beyond
this: "We are under contract with
Dan Stewart and the Florida Ath-
letic club, and propose to live up to
our part OF the contract. We are
going to Texas under the terms of
our contract, and am going there
to fight. / expect to live up to my
part of the agreement. l am anx-
ious to fight, and will go anywhere
to pull it of, providing the purse
is all right.
at seems very funny that the
Legislature of Texas and the gov
ernor should 60 so far out Of their
way to make a fight on sparring
contest, of which the chances are
the majority of the legislators
know nothing whatever" Said
Manager Brady: $50 far as there
being any brutality in such con-
test between skilled pugilists who
are in good condition, there is
nothing of the sort. The state of
Texas is put to heavy expense for
a special act against sparring con-
tests, which do not do nearly so
much harm, and in which there Is
not nearly 30 much danger as in
football, baseball and other con-
tests in which men are killed. Ger
tainly, the Texas Legislators are
making a mountain out Of mole
hill in this case, but it is their
business. We will go on, Of course,
and govern ourselves by the facts
as they present themselves to US.
"Well, that does seem to cook
u.s." when he saw the text Of the
bill /; he continued, "The next move
will be to try Laredo, but one thing
is certain, we are not going to Mex
leo unless we have iron-clad guar
antee that we would not be troub-
led. We know how to take care OF
ourselves in this country, but are
not going to take any chances with
foreign governments. We are will
ing, however, to go to the Indian
Territory if Stuart wants to take
us there, for i believe the fight
could be pulled off there. We will
go at once to Texas, and Corbett
will continue his training. He is
fit to go into the ring right now"

CHICAGO SPORTS HOWL.
The Decisive Action Of the Texas
Legislature Knocks Them Silly.

ASSisidbuio huOChs 1nem SHY
CHICAGO, Oct. 3.-When the
news of the action OF the Texas
legislature on the prize fighting
question, at Austin yesterday,
reached the sports around town,
they were knocked silly. Governor
Culberson and every body that had
any connection with the passage
OF the bill were denounced in
strongest language. Those that
had been in communication with
President Dan Stuart Of the Flori-
da Athletic club for the last month
doubted the press dispatches and
still retained faith in his ability to
pull the fight off as advertised. j.
III. McLain, one of Stuart's business
partners, said that, with the excep-
tion Of a brief telegram which he
received early in the day, and
which had no bearing on the do
ings OF the legislature, he had not
heard from Stuart. Regarding the
prospects Of the Florida Athletic
club holding the fight elsewhere
he said that everything looked so
rosy to have it take place as
advertised he was not prepared
to make any statement as to the
future doings OF the club. He was
thunder struck when informed Of
the action of the legislature, and
could not understand how the
passage of the bill was accom-
plished. When asked il the fight
would be declared of for good, he
said he thought not; that Stuart
was determined man and having
gone thus far would see the thing
through. Arrangements, he said,
have in minor way been perfect
ed to transfer the fights to the In
dian Territory or TO Mexico. He
thought Stuart would much
prefer the former place but II the
Indian Territ DRY should be barred
against them, he would undoubted-
ly bring the men together on the
other side of the Rio Grande.
About a month ago McLain, at
Stuarts suggestion, took look
over the ground in Mexico for
place to pull Off the contests should
circumstances prevent their TAX
ing place in Dallas or any other
part of Texas. What success Nc
Lain met with on that trip could
not be ascertained as he would
not discuss the question. McLain,
upon his return to the states
reported to Stuart and as Mexico,
time and again, has been talked
OF as likely place for the
fighters to settle their differ
ences, the probabilities are the
fighting scene will be shifted from
Texas to Mexican soil. All the
parties that had made arrange
ments to run special trains, while
surprised, did not appear to be
flurried over the news. They said
they had received no word from
President Stuart notifying them to
stop selling tickets for the special
and therefore would continue book
ing passengers as heretofore.

AUSTIN, Tex, Oct. ESPECIAL
The senate this morning received
and concurred in the house amend
ments to its anti-prize fight bill

tach ed section" act, and
That it amend the law so as to
enable the board of education to 60

gestion of the governor, and the

The Fight In the Territory
Mexico is Neutral.
WASHINGTON, Oct. 3.-The act
ion yesterday of the Legislature OF
Texas having rendered it practi-
cally impossible for the Corbett-
Fitzsimmons prize fight to take
place in that state the question has
again arisen whether there is any
statutory or territorial law against
prize fighting in the adjacent In
dian Territory. Attorney General
Harmon was questioned today on
the subject, but he thought it
would be manifestly improper and
injudicious to discuss what meas
ure the government would take to
prevent the fight IL attempted in
any Of the territories, though he
left no doubt as to the govern
ment's Intentions to avail itself to
the very fullest extent of any
authority 1t has in the Indian
Territory to prevent the fight and
he believed enough law could be
found to stop 1t.
Senior Romero, Mexican minis
ter, was seen this morning and
asked about the prospects of the
Corbett. Fitzsimmons fight taking
place across the border on the Mex
lean side. personally" said minis
ter Romero, 81 have no knowledge
of the matter. The safes of the
Mexican Republic are like those of
the United States, sovereign with
in their limitations. do not know
whether Tamaulipas has a law
against prize fighting, but am in
clined to think it has not.
"Do you think President Diaz
would interfere in behalf o: the
central government"
81 do not know" replied the min.
lister. Minister Romero would ex-
press no opinion as to whether the
fight would be pulled off on Mex
lean territory.

CHICAGO, Oct. 3.-Bruised, bat
tered and bleeding, the contending
city and county factions in yester-
days Republican primaries re-
turned from the field of conflict to
take brief rest, preparatory to
fighting the battle to finish in
today's convention. Both factions
claimed victory. Broken heads,
black eyes in more than score of
primary precincts attested the
fierceness of the battle waged be-
tween the city and county factions
for control of the convention and
for supremacy in the local party
organization. Never before, it is
said, in the history of Cook county,
were such scenes enacted as were
witnessed at many of the polling
places in the First, Second, Third,
Fifth, Sixth, Seventh, Ninth,
Tenth, Twelfth and Thirteenth
wards. The disreputable element,
irrespective Of party politics, was
attracted to the polls by the bitter
partisan surroundings, and thug
gerry, bulldozing, rioting, rif1ing of
ballot boxes, wrecking of polling
booths and terroriZing in general
were the result. The results of the
riots at many of the polling places
will be made manifest in the con-
vention. There will be contesting
delegates from the wards men,
toned and the bitterness caused
by the events of today will serious
ly interfere with the prospects of
harmony. sIn the first ward gangs
of toughs kept the ward in reign
of terror from the time the polls
opened until they closed. Nearly
every place in the ward was raided
by the gang which was working
for the city faction. Barricades
erected by the county faction held
possession during the remainder
of the day. In other wards SINH
lar disgraceful scenes were wit
messed. In the first precinct of
the Ninth ward the county faction
gang raided the polls, threw the
judges and clerks out and took
possession of the ballot box. The
judges and clerks who were thrown
out opened another polling place
next door. In the fourth precinct
of the Twelfth ward the city gang
raided the polling place and threw
the judges and clerks, who be-
longed to the county faction, into
the street. The evicted judges
went across the street and opened
another polling place, but the gang
followed them up and breaking
the ballot box into splinters drove
the judges away from the vicinity.
The Sixth ward was also the scene
of disorder and fighting. Several
bloody fights characterized the
primaries in this ward. So far as
can be learned nobody was killed
at the primaries, but scores of per-
sons were more or less injured. In
the tough districts decent citizens
remained away from the prim-
aries, not caring to imperil their
lives by attempting to vote.
At late hour last night the re-
turns indicated that the county
faction would have a majority of
about 60 in today's convention.
The prospect is good for a hot ses-
sion today.
