JONES" A TRAITOR.
Chicago Irishmen Deny His Testimony
Given Ia London.

Chicago. Nov. l6.-Chicago Irishmep
place little reliance In the story told
In the Bow street police court. London.
by Thomas Meric Jones. informer. and
British spy. His alleged expose Of the
inner workings of the Clan-na-Gael
societies Is laughed at and ridiculed.
while statements relative TO meetings
and transact tions In this city are de-
nounced as false and groundless. Not
withstanding this view of the case,
the opinion prevails that Jones imag-
inings will be accepted as gospel truth
by the British government, and prove
instrumental in causing the conviction
of Edward j. Ivory. otherwise known
as Bell, on the charge of being a dyn-
amiter.
Dan Coughlin denied certain portions
of the sensational recital of the spy.
Jones. Particularly was this true in
regard to the claim that portion of
Ivory's alleged reasonably acts were
committed in this city in 1895.
Had Ivory been In Chicago at that
time would have known it," he said
Jones is simply hireling Of the Brit
ish police. who is doing his best to earn
his money by making out a case
against Ivory. His talk of secret meet
ings at McCoy's hotel is equally false
The meetings held 10y the Irish socie
ties that year were made public. II
should go to Europe today I would b'
placed in the same position as Ivory
and case would be trumped ul
against ME"
Another Irish leader was equally EN-
phatic as 10 Jones. and said his state
ment was simply nonsensical.

DETECTIVES USED RED INK.
Novel Method of Identification Employed
In Raiding n Pool Room.

New York, Nov. ia novel method
OF Identification was adopted by the
police in a raid on Aliens pool rooms
in West Broadway. The detectives
who gained an entrance TO the rooms
were provided with rubber bulbs. such
as are used by florists 10 spray flowers.
The bulbs were filled with red ink. and
at a signal five police outside were
ready TO break i'm the TWO detectives
inside sprayed the sheet writers ana
other workers In the room with the
ink. ..
When they were ali corralled at the
Mercer Street station no change OF
coats or hats served as a means OF al
lowing the employees TO escape, and all
those with red ink stains on them
were charged with keeping gambling
house. A customer with particularly
red nose was several times mistaken
for an employe and convinced the po-
lice that the color was his own ana
not artificial only by thorough rub
bing OF the rose-tinted organ with
wet handkerchief The police say the
ink worked like a charm, and that nc
guilty man escaped. Allen and his EN-
pioyes were held for examination and
the customers were released.

LYMAN, n. H., Nov. 16.-A terrible
double crime has been committed in
this little town. Herbert X. Ash.
well-to-do farmer. and one OF the best
known men in the community, shot
his wife and then hanged himself. The
f,rst intimation of the crime was when
the 9-year-old daughter of Mr.. and
Mrs Ash delivered a note to a brother
Of Ash. The note read as follows;
Dear Brother: When you read these
lines Ella and I will be numbered with
the dead
The body OF Ash was found hanging
nv q halter around his neck from
beam over the barn door. There was
a bullet wound i'm one arm that showed
he had attempted his own life with the
revolver which had been the means OF
his wife's death. There was evidence
~ a struggle between the husband
and wife No reason for the deed can
be assigned. as the marital relations
of Ash and his wife were supposed TO
be OF the happiest.
