ing different lines owned by the. same peo-

KILLED BY A BOMB.
The Deadly Deed is Believed to be the
Work of Anarchists.


New York Oct. Hamilton J. An.
drus, president of the Arlington Chemical
Company, of Yonkers, was killed to-day
by the explosion of bomb in his office
He was alone when the tragedy occurred
Who placed the bomb in the office or
whom it was intended to kill is not
known. John Andrus, Il brother of the
victim, was generally the first to enter
the Office and as the dead man was very
we'll liked, it is conjectured that the
brother was the one whose life was de-
sired. Mr.. Andrus' head was literally
blown to pieces. There is another theory
that during the night there was an ut
tempt to burglarize the safe and that the
thieves succeeded in introducing some
high explosive in the door, which was
discharged when Mr. Andrus opened it
to day.
1t is now known positively that the ex.
plosion of bomb made of iron pipe was
what killed Mr.. Andrus His body was
terribly mangled and the Office wrecked.
So far no motive has been disclosed for
the murder. Mr.. And,us was popular
with all the Yonkers and was essentially
Il home man.
Information of startling character
was received by the police which may aid
i'll the solution of the mystery. 1t was
TO the effect that the bomb WAS intended
for John f. Andrus, brother of the dead
man, several times II millionaire.
On learning of the explosion and the
death of his brother he hurried to the
police station and communicated with
Capt. Mangin. TO the captain he said
that the explosion of the bomb. might
have been the work of anarchists and
offered an explanation for his belief.
About three weeks ago he said he was
walking along Wall street, New York,
when he was accosted by rather seedy
looking individual. who took him by the
arm and said: 'Mr. Andrus you are IL
very wealthy man. You have too much
money and | am one of the people who
thing that you ought to distribute at
least one-third of what you have among
the poor. You will either do this or
there will be way found compelling you
| to do it.''
Andrus, according to his story, paid
little attention to the man at the time.
Up to the present time no arrests have
been made

THE COMPETITOR PRISONERS.
The Two Americans Will Enjoy the Priv
ileges of the Cushing Protocol.


ileges of the Cushing Protocol
Washington, Oct. 21.-Athough the
State Department officials declined to
make public any information respecting
advices received relative to the procedure
in the trial of the Competitor prisoners
at Havana, now in progress, it can be
stated that so far as the two American
prisoners, Laborde and Melton, are con-
cerned they will enjoy all the privileges
accorded by the Gushing protocol. This
means that they will be allowed to name
attorneys and advocates, who shall have
access to them at suitable times: that
they shall be furnished in due season cop
les of the accusations and II list of wit
nesses for the prosecution, which latter
shall be examined before the supposed
criminal. his attorneys and advocates;
that they shall have the right to compel
the attendance of witnesses in their be-
half or to use dispositions; that they may
present such evidence rs they deem essen.
tial TO their case, and that they shall be
permitted to be present and to make
their defense in public trial orally or in
writing by themselves or by means of
their counsel.
Whether or not they will be tried be.
fore the civil courts or courtmartal
NSpShNS tpph VI uOt eileI were
captured with''arms in hand; in the latter
case the protocol permits a courtmartial
trial, but even in this case the proceed
ings will be vastly different from those
under which the prisoners were so sum
marily convicted and sentenced to death
by the first naval courtmartial, without
opportunity to choose their own counsel
or even altogether understand the evil
deuce given against them in Spanish.

citizens here are helping him get up
a true biographical sketch of his
fathers life. We can say one thing
about his father, and that is, he
led a true Christian life while here,
and nothing that he ever did, can
bring a blush to the cheek of the
son, who has crossed the sea to
know more of the father whom he
became separated from.
