NO SETTLEMENT YET.

NEW YORK, April "a settlement
of the trouble between the Metropoli-
tan Street Railway company and its
5000 employees who threaten to strike
unless the discharged men are reinstat-
ed has not yet been reached. The en-
ployers are still persistent in their allie
cations that the ten men were dis
charged for their activity in organizing
the Metropolitan system as local
of the Amaigamated Association Of
Street Railway Employees of America.
AT the general offices of the company
a reporter was informed there was
nothing to add to or decract from Pres
idcnt Vreeland's statsnrrt that TIE
men were discharged for violating the
rules of the company which says that
no employee shall enter a saloon while
on duty. The executive committee of
the amalgamated association held an
informal meeting today at their head
quarters. General Organizer McCul-
lom said:
we are in the same position as yes

BRIEF TELEGRAMS.

A Berlin dispatch says Herr suder-
manns.. new play Happiness in the
Corner" was produced at the Leasing
theatre Saturday night and caused great
enthusiasm.
The Vienna correspondent of the
London Times says: The Vaterland
publishes letter from the superior of
a Catholic mission station at Orfa
declaring 5000 Armenians have been
massacred there.
The London Times prints, without COM
ments. long extracts from two publica-
tons with the imprint of Atlanta, Ga.
The first is entitled THE Official His
tory of the Discussion between Vene-
zuela and Great Britain on the Guiana
addressed to the Times containing Senior
Sofas article from the Caracas Diario.
The Times presumes that these publica-
tions represent the official Venezuela case
with regard to the disputes.
A dispatch to the London Times from
Athens says the premier, NJ del Yam
mis- and all of the ministers were pres
ent at the unwilling of the statue of
NJ Averoff. The Times has letter
from Athens describing the history of
the present movement for revival of
the Hellenic games which says: The
success of the festival is now assured.
1t has been wisely determined to avoid
all needless expenditures on temporary
decorations and not to attempt any
fetes on large scale for the amuse-
ment of visitors. The Grecian finances
are not in condition for a lavish dis
play. OF all the capitals of Europe
Athens least needs meretricious embel-
lishments which would only detract
from the advantages of her unique
charms.

COUNCIL BLUFFS, Ia, April s.
The federal authorities at this place
are taking steps which may place the
entire town of Lucas. Ia, under indict-
ment for boot-legging. Lucas is on
the Burlington, situated near the mid
die of the state.
Action is about to be taken on the
statements of one Frank Geggins, who
was arrested week ago on the charge
of Iboot-legging. He was brought to
Council Bluffs by Special Detective
Ravencamp of the Burlington route.
He has confessed, and furthermore re-
lated queer tale of the doings in the
little village
According to his story. boot-legging
is looked upon as a legally constituted
profession by the residents. He says
that everybody in the town is dispos-
ing of packages. He alleges that when
train stops at the station, every citi-
zen, from the station master down, is
on hand with the packages.

performers, but all escaped without
injury, many of the actors running
INTO the streets in their stage attire.
Probably the greatest excitement at
tending the fire was caused by an in
c1dent that happened on the third floor,
where the collection of huge snakes
was on exhibition. Among this collec-
ton was a boa constructor twenty feet
In length. A female snake charmer
had charge of the reptiles, and when
the fire broke out she attempted TO
place them in a box, calling for as
sistance A stranger climbed into the
cage and offered 10 help capture the
snakes He picked the largest one up
by the neck, and no sooner had he
done so than the snake, recognizing
it was in the hands of a stranger,
colled its huge form about the mans
arm. The snake charmer, realizing
the mans danger, told him to keep
firm grip on the snakes neck. A ter
rife struggle then ensued, but by the
combined efforts of the fair snake
charmer and the obliging stranger, the
boa constructor was finally damned
into a big box and secured The re-
mainder of the snakes were easily res
cued.
The blaze was a hot one while it
lasted, but the fire department soon
extinguished it with only nominal
damage. The origin of the fire is I'M
known.

engaged in prize fight last night, and
as a result the latter died at midnight.
The fight was to be friendly one, to
settle the title of which was the better
man. The men with about fifteen 9TH
ers left here for South Lawrence early
last night and went to Blair's barn
on South Broadway, where the fight
took place. A man named Mcintosh
was the second for Ingram and
friend named Donovan seconded Brad
ley, while James Gilligan, local sport
was time keeper and Thomas Gibney
referee. The knockout blow was land
ed in the vein under the right jaw,
after thirty minutes fighting. All eff
forts to restore Ingram to conscious
ness failed and he was carried to his
brothers house, where he died at mid
night. The police of Haverhill were
notified and arrested Arthur Bradley,
James Meserve, Thomas Gibney, Fred
Whitney and two men named McIn-
tosh and McRae. The police are
searching for the other spectators and
officials and number of arrests are
expected. The medical examiner will
hold an autopsy tomorrow.

PROTESTS TO THE PORTE.
They are Filed by the British AM
bnssador and the American
Charge d' Affairs.

CONSTANTINOPLE. April Sir
Philip Currie, the British ambassador
and Mr.. j. w Riddle, the United States
charge d. affaires on Saturday, re-
newed their protests to the porte
against the expulsion from Bitlis of the
American missionary, Rev G. F..
Knapp. Mr.. Knapp was accused by
the Turkish officials, some time since,
of taking part in the Armenian revo-
lutionary movement and was sum-
moned before the criminal court to
answer to a charge of conspiracy. Mr.
Hampson, the British consul at Bitlis
reported that the charges were absurd,
and that it was believed they were
brought for the purpose of compelling
Mr.. Knapp and his fellow missionary,
Rev. r. NJ. Cole, to leave the country
When he appealed to Mr. Terrell. the
United States minister, by telegraph.
that gentleman told him not to answer
the summons and if he were threatened
with arrest, to stay in his house.
Mr.. Terrell then informed the porte
that he would not consent to Mr..
Knapp being tried by the criminal
court, and that he must be brought
TO Constantinople to proceed before the
United States minister. Mr. Knapp
has complained that he has been
blockaded in Bitlis, his servants not
being allowed to go to the market and
the roads being so bad that he could
not leave for Constantinople

ARMENIAN TROUBLES.

NEW YORK. April 5.-The Ham
burg-American line steamship Fuerst
Bismarck arrived today from Naples
and Genoa. Among the passengers
was Mr.. A. w. Terrell, United States
minister to Turkey. Mr.. Terrell de-
clined to talk on the Armenian ques-
ton. He said he was anxious to reach
Washington and would leave on the
first train. He was feeling we'll. con-
sidering the very unpleasant and tenn
pestuous voyage. The Fuerst made
the passage from Gibraltar to the
Sandy Hook lightship in eight days,
four hours and fifty-seven minutes,
covering distance of $3.50 miles.
Throughout the passage head winds
and seas were experienced.

THE RAINES BILL.
New York SaIoonlSeepers Take No
Chances.

NEW YORK, April 1.-The Raines
liquor law was enforced in this city to-
day. 1t was apparent all over the city
that the saloon keepers had made up
their minds to take no chances under
the existing condition of affairs, for
there was no attempt to evade the pro-
visions of the law, and no violations
were reported. On every street the in
teriors of the drinking places were ex-
posed to full view, the blinds and cur
tains being so arranged as to give a
clear prospect of what was going on
inside. The saloons were in almost
every instance deserted, even by the
prcprietors and their bartenders. Re-
ports had it that the uptown hotels
were profiting largely by the changed
order of things, and that most of
them were doing a rushing, though
legitimate business. None of them sold
liquor over the bars. but the majority,
especially those which have bars in
their cafes. dispensed liquors with
lunches and meals.
Reports from all over the state in
dictate that the new law was quite gen.
orally enforced. Very few persons de-
fed the law. Those doing SO were
promptly arrested.

END OF A "TERR Or"
A Slayer of dad Men, Finally Meets
His Doom.

DOOM.
Ell PASO, Tex, April 5.-John Sell
man, the victor of not less than
twenty fatal shooting ARRAYS in Texas,
and exterminatoc of dad" men, and
the slayer of the notorious John Wes-
ley Hardin, is lying with a bullet hole
through his body. About two or three
months ago Selman and United States
Deputy Marshal George Scarborough
had a quarrel over a game of cards,
since which occurrence the relations
between them have not been very cor
dial. This morning at o'clock they
met in the Wigwam saloon and both
were drinking. Scarborough says Sell
man asked him to Come out here;
want to see you" and that the two
walked out into an alley behind the
saloon, and Selman, whose son is in
the Juarez (Mex) Jail on the charge
of abducting young lady from this
side for immoral purposes, said to
Scarborough, Il want you to go over
the river with me this morning; we
must get that boy out of jail"
Scarborough expressed willingness
to go with Selman, but stated no
breaks should be made in Juarez.
Scarborough said Selman then reached
for his pistol with the remark, II be-
lieve I'll kill you"
Scarborough pulled his gun and be-
gan shooting. At the second shot Sell
man fell and Scarborough fred two
more shots as Selman attempted to
rise. When Selman was searched no
pistol could be found on him, or any
where around him. He says he had
a pistol, but that it was taken from
him after he fell and before the police
reached him. He was hit by every
shot that Scarborough fired. Scarbor-
ough is about IS years old, was born
in Louisiana, but was raised in Texas
and was for several years sheriff Of
Jones county, Tex. He is now out of
Jail under bond. Selman was raised
on the Colorado river, Texas. He is
about IS years of age and has lived a
stormy life. When not drinking he
was gentle and as modest as a child,
but he did not know what fear was,
and has killed not less than twenty
outlaws. He was a dead shot and
quick as lightning with gun Last
August in this city the notorious John
Wesley Hardin challenged him to a
free fight in the Acme saloon, and
Selman killed that dangerous charac-
