THEY CONCEAL A CRIME.
Blunders of Hospital Doctors
in a Case of Wife
Poisoning.
A Plain Case of Murder by Paris
Green Dignosed at the Autopsy
as alcoholism"

NEW YORK, n. Y, April pa sup
posed wrong diagnosis of the illness OF
Mary Kane by the doctors at Bellevue
the part of the pathologist of the same
hospital, came very near hiding what is
believed to be a case of murder. The vic
tim died of paris green poisoning, which
was diagnosed as alcoholism, but whether
she died by her own hand or was poisoned
by some one else will be determined by the
police and the District Attorney.
The doctor explained that when he gave
the information upon which the certifi-
cate of death was given his autopsy had
been imperfect, inasmuch as he had not
examined the stomach of the woman.
When, however, he returned to finish his
work, he found that there was quantity
of paris green in the stomach.
The woman came to the hospital suffer
ing so much from the effects of drink that
she staggered. She was dazed and could
not speak. She was put to bed in the
female ward, but died three hours later
without having regained consciousness.
The woman, who was only 26 years old,
lived with her husband, John Kane, a
pT6SSI1dn, VINO Is ABOUT OO years Olu. Dy
the people living in the house the couple
were regarded as excessive drinkers. Dur
ing the last week their quarrels annoyed
their neighbors more than usual.
The woman was helplessly intoxicated
Saturday night, and during the night and
morning means in her room led some
people living on the same floor to inquire
what allied her. She said that her coffee
at supper had upset her. Later she went
out, saying she was 50 i'll that she would
go to the hospital. Her husband did not
return to the house until Monday night.
He made inquiries about the health of his
wife of the housekeeper. He told her that
Mrs. Kane had taken the keys OF the room
to him in saloon. He then asked the
housekeeper to allow him to stay in the
house without paying his rent, as his wife
was insured. She consented and he went
up to his room alone and removed some
packages of powder which had been Sc
creted under the cover of the bureau
These he took away with him and he has
not been seen since.

APPEALED TO THE POLICE.
An Aged Miss WoMtd Take Her Lorer

An Aoed Miss Womld Take Her Louer
by Force.
NEW YORK, N. Y, April 24.-Chief of
Police Donovan of Hoboken was appealed
to in a singular manner last night. Miss
Helena Rauch, who is so years of age, and
whose home is in Chicago, wanted the
Chief to compel young man, Richard
Elso, to accompany her to Chicago. Miss
Rauch is. said to be rich. Last November
she went to Leipsic to spend the winter.
While at hotel there she fell in love with
Elso, young man who was the book
keeper of the establishment. Despite the
disparity of their ages she and Elso ar
ranged to return to Chicago together and
be married. When they arrived in Hobo
ken Elso said he liked the town and re-
fused to go to Chicago. He was still Will
ing to marry Miss Rauch, he said, but she
would not consent to the ceremony unless
he would accompany her to Chicago as ne
had agreed. Donovan told the lady that
there was no law to compel Mr.. Elso to go
to Chicago against his will. The couple
are still at the hotel, with little proba-
bility of reaching an agreement.

Unrequfted Lore Causes an austrian to

CHICAGO, ILL, April A.-Jilted by the
girl he loved and respondent because he
was without money or friends in America,
Ludwig Grossman, an ex-lieutenant in

WILLARD AGAIN IN CONTROL.
Once More to Guide the Destiny of tn,
Northern Pacific Railroad.

ST. PAUL, MINI, April PA dispatch
this afternoon will say: Henry Willard
has again secured control of the Northern
Pacific, and will come to this country for
the purpose of making arrangements to
wind up the receivership and assume the
direction of the property. This, it is said,
has been accomplished through the efforts
of the Deutsche Bank of Berlin, Willard s
hacker ever since his connection with the
Northern Pacific began.
Twice Willard had control of the road,
once at its beginning and once later, and
each time it seems he has had the Ameri-
can stockholders to contend with in his
efforts to look after the interests of the
bondholders who are represented by the
Deutsche Bank. The stockholders have
invariably carried the day, and Willard has
been ousted. The last time, however, the
busting was followed in no great length by
the receivership, so that the stockholders
did not gain very great benefit from the
process.

PROTECT PUBLIC MORALS,
AinsWorth Explains the Object
of His Anti-Nudity
Bill.
But the New York Assembly De-
Cides to Materially Prune the
Measure.

ALBANY, n. Y, April 24.-What was
designed to be very tame, business-like
session of the Assembly last night started
in a contrary manner by the launching Of
the Ainsworth anti-nudity bill, and a
consequent discussion. No sooner had
the clerk announced the bill than there
was an amendment offered by Mr.. Friday
exempting from the bills provisions all
entertainments where historical costum-
ing, ballets or operate performances were
concerned.
Mr.. Ainsworth said he hoped that
no such amendments would prevail. The
bill was designed to protect The morals OF
the community and hinder any display
that was in any way indecent. No man
would stand up and justify such exhibit
tions as have caused the introduction of the
bill. The bill was demanded by every de-
cent citizen in the State, and no man was
lover of the land and the people who
would oppose it or amend it.
Mr.. Foley moved to strike out the en-
acting clause, and said the measure was
entirely too drastic.
DR.. Bush hoped no such motion would
prevail.
Mr.. Ainsworth-Why, Mr.. Speaker, these
destroyers of morals and all that is decent
have even sent their pernicious literature
into the female academies and schools of
the land. There is nothing in this bill
that will stop decent exhibitions, and no
theatrical manager has protested against it.
Mr.. Foley Il don't believe that art
views of the female form are so very detri-
mental to anybody's morals. 1t is rather
the acting and conversation in indecent
lines.
Mr.. Armstrong; am in favor of the
principle of the bill, but 1 am also for the
amendment, for 1 believe that the line
should be drawn in the bill and not left SO
ambiguous that art sales exhibitions, etc.,
shall be prohibited.
Mr. Ainsworth-I contend that there
are great differences in productions, and
that no one shall say that representation
of the Greek Slave or Cleopatra is indie
cent, but that fully clothed figure doing
q Cairo street dance is decent.
Mr.. Stanchfield contended that the law
was so broad that any production de-
nounced by crowd could be adiudged in
decent, and he believed that the line
should be drawn.
Mr.. Ainsworth-This bill is not destined
to say how people shall be clothed, but to
say that that they shall not be unclothed.
Mr.. Fridays amendment was adopted
by a decisive vote and the bill was
amended and ordered printed for passage.

SEATTLE RATES RESTORED
War Between the Steamship
Companies Comes to an
Amicable Ending.
Owners Say the FaralIon Has Not
Been Making Money So They
Decided to Quit.

SEATTLE, WASH, April 24.-The rate
war between the Pacific Coast Steamship
Company and the steamer Farallon, run
ming between Seattle and San Francisco,
which has been in progress for some
months, has been ended by the withdrawal
of the Farallon. Both parties deny that
any inducement was given the Farallon to
withdraw, and the owners say they simply
gave up because they were making no
money, although the boat was crowded
every trip.
1t is believed the transcontinental rail-
road had something to do with her with
drawal as the low rates were affecting over
land business on all lines.
The Farallon has been chartered for one
year by the Yaquina Steamship Company,
which is controlled by the Oregon Pacific
Railroad, and will run between Yaquina
Bay and San Francisco. She left here
on her last trip to-day crowded with pas,
sengers and freight.
