WOES OF AN AGED LOVER.
Samuel Dutton, Aged 90 Years, Lies at
the Point of Death and tho Woman
Whom lie Loved Is III Jail.


Philadelphia, March 31.-Suffering
from fractured shoulder and internal
injuries that promise to end in his
death, Samuel Dutton, aged 81 years,
of Chester, occupies a cot in the Penn
sylvania hospital and Mrs Josephine
lbbetson, aged 45, is in cell of Moya-
mensing prison, charged with response
bility for his injuries.
Dutton came to the city from Chester
yesterday afternoon and called on Mrs
lbbetSon, who occupied a front room
on the third floor of 1921 Kater street
The pair spent the afternoon together
ing after quarrel.
The aged lover returned to the house
about 10 O'clock. He disappeared up
stairs and that was the last seen of him
by any of the inmates of the house ey-
cept Mrs. 1bbetSon's son until the po-
lceman aroused them and called their
attention to man on the pavement
in front of the house. An open window
in the room occupied by Mrs Ibbetson
Indicated that Dutton had fallen from
that point to the pavement. When he
recovered consciousness shortly after
his arrival at the. hospital he said he
had fallen from the window. He fol-
lowed this with n statement that he
knew nothing from the time he fell
asleep on a chair in the woman's room
until his arrival at the hospital. Mrs.
lbbetson was taken to the second dis
trict police station, where she was
given a hearing this morning and was
held to await the result of buttons
injuries.

ELEVATED ELECTRIC ROAD.
Proposed Freight Line Between New York
and Chicago.


Chicago, March 31.-The Inter-Ocean
Electric Railway company, incorporat-
ed at Springfield yesterday, purposes to
make some decided changes in the pres
ent method of freight transportation.
The company has a capital stock of two
hundred million dollars, the largest
ever incorporated in the west, and a
number of Chicago, New York and San
Francisco capitalists are interested in
the corporation. The intention is to
construct an elevated electric freight
railway between Chicago and New
York for the transportation of coal and
grain. The plans and specifications
have been drawn, and the company will
own number of patents by electrical
devices used by the road.
John w. King. one of the incorpora-
tors and the attorney for the new COM
pany, said yesterday: "The road is a
decided step in advance of the electri-
cal roads operated at present. Elec-
tricity Is cheaper as q motive power
than steam, and renders much higher
rate of speed possible. By elevating
our road we expect to do away with the
necessity of buying a right Of way, and
all delays incident to surface traffic will
be avoided. At present it takes six days
for freight to travel from Chicago to
New York. On the new road the trip
will take one. The road will have its
own telephone and telegraph lines, and
it is proposed in time to extend the line
to San Francisco"

Women of pittsburg Ask That the Unfor'

Pittsburg, March 3l.-Thirteen wo-
men representing the Women's Protec-
tive league called on the mayors OF
Pittsburg and Allegheny today and
asked them to close all houses of i'll
fame in the two cities. Mayor w. NJ.
Kennedy, of Allegheny, said all such
houses in his ballwick were closed. but
promised to close any the women could
find Mayor B. Mckenna, of Pittsburg,
told the committee he had no power
under the city charter to order the po-
lice to close resorts. He referred them
to Public Safety Director j. o. Brown.
Director Brown did not meet the wo-
men, but said tonight: II refuse to be
"A party to step that will throw on the
streets the 500 unfortunate Magdalenes
of this city. If the Women's Protec-
tive league will furnish the unfortu-
mates with homes i will close every

turn these women on the streets and
drive them to suicide, as Ada Hatha-
way was driven to death because she
could find no honorable employment
when she had repented Of her life of
shame"

GIVE THEM HORSE MEAT.
The United States Consul Recommends
That American Packers Ship Ancient
Steeds to Germany

Washington, March 31.--One of the
most striking novelties in recent con-
sular reports received at the state de-
partment is the deliberate recommen-
dation of United States consul that
American packers should turn their at
tention to shipping horse flesh to Ger
many.
In view of the prohibition Of Ger
man markets to American cattle there
is another direction toward which
American packers might we'll turn their
attention. That is the preparation and
sale of horse meat"
This is the opening paragraph of a
report just received from Consul Ed
ward w. S. Tlngle, at Brunswick, Ger
MANY. Mr.. Tingle adds:
while exact statistics as to the con-
sumption of horse meat are difficult to
obtain it seems it is almost as great as
that of beef or mutton in the large
cities of Germany
Horses" says Mr.. Tingle, "can be
raised in the United States much cheap
er than cattle. They can be slaughter
ed by any of the American packing
houses as easily as cattle, and can be
shipped alive across the sea much
more easily than cattle, and can be
sold either on the hoof or dressed at n
price certainly greater than seven cents
per pound. The meat Is consumed in
Germany in both a salted and smoked
state"

COLOR DOCTOR DEAD.
lie Hadn't Taken a Bath for Twenty-Five
Years

st. Louis, Mo, March 31.-Dr. Will
lam Hotchkiss, alleged to have reached
the age of 140 years, died here sudden
ly yesterday of heart disease. He has
always been known as the "color doc
tor" In his peculiar practice of medi-
cine he termed his patients members
Of his Circles" and claimed to treat
them by magnetic process. His Ma
sonic record has been traced back 100
years, showing conclusively that he
was at least 121 years old. A letter re-
ceived from his old home in Dinwiddie
county. Va, over a year ago, says he
was born there in 1855.
DIR. Hotchkiss had a natural aversion
to water, and is said to have not taken
bath for over twenty-five years, but
secured himself with dry sand.
He claimed to have discovered the
elixir vitae. At regular intervals he
stood over a smoking brazier and al
lowed the smoke to envelop his body.

MAY ASK RECOGNITION.
This Conntry-Thcir Cause Is Gaining
Ground

This Country-Thcir Cause Is Gaining
Ground.
Washington, March 31.--The sue
cesses which are attending the opera
tions of the insurgents in Cuba will,
If they are continued, soon lead to a de-
termined effort to secure recognition
from the United States. While no
communication, either formal or infor-
NAL, has yet been received at the state
department, its arrival is not unex-
pected.
1t has always been the policy of the
United States to recognize de facto gov
ernments. If, therefore, the Cuban in
surgents can create provisional gov
eminent they will have taken long
step forward in the direction of secur-
ing recognition as belligerents. This
country also demands, as a general
rule, that the new government shall is
sue currency and shall be in possession
of a considerable portion Of the terri
tory over which it assumes control. 1t
will be remembered that Admiral de
Cana, when he led the revolt in Brazil.
made the most strenuous efforts to Sc
cure recognition from the United
States. He even organized a provi-
sional government and issued some pa
per currency, in the hope that by COM
plying with the usual forms the much
desired recognition could not be denied
him. 1t so happened, however, that he
had fired upon one of our ships, and he
was also known to contemplate the
overthrow of the Brazilian republic and
the establishment of a monarchy. For
these reasons his claims were not favor
ably considered.
If the Cuban insurgents should re-
ceive recognition as belligerents their
government would be placed upon ex-
actly the same footing as Spain in all
relations with the United States. This,
in itself, is high stake worth playing
for, but in addition to this the ship
ment of arms to Cuba would be no
longer fllibustering, but would be legiti-
mate procedure. 1t can easily be seen,
therefore, that unless Spain speedily
crushes the Cuban rebellion the future
may have some interesting develop
ments in store.

his reorganization scheme. The fact is
that here has centered from the start
the opporition to Harrity. 1t has been
led by The Patriot of this city, which
has never desisted in the opposition to
him for four years past. Even when
Harrity was in the height of his politi-
cal glory that newpaper continually
pointed out his defects as a leader, and
his various weakness
Early in Harrity's career The Patiot
predicted that the vaporal chairman
would bring, in "a few years, the party
to precisely the position in which it is
now. Had it not been for the persistent
and able opposition of The Patriot, well
versed politicians in the state agree
that there would not now be even a
nucleus around which the opponents of
Harrity could cluster.
