to Publish It.

PHILADELPHIA, March 27.-Ef- forts are being made by several Phil adetphia and New York publishers to induce Murdered H. H. Holmes to make full confession and to tell the story of his life. One New York pub fisher began with an offer of LOGO for truthful and detailed story of his criminal career, and gradually in creased it ito s5,000 because of the in difference of the condemned man.
 While Holmes was considering this last proposition a rival New York newspaper offered him $7,50O fiat for the same thing. It is not known whether he has accepted the offer, but he has been doing a good deal of writ ing lately, the character of which he has concealed.

FIGHT WITH 4 BURGLAR.
Two Brave Women Are Seriously h.
 jured by a Rufian.

BEAVER FALLS, Pa., March 27.- This afternoon as Ella, the 12-year-old daughter of Charles w. Myers, man ager of the Myers Shovel works, went to her room she screamed at the sight of a man ransacking her bureau. The man grabbed her by her hair and, with a razor threatened to cut her throat. The child's screams attracted Mary Callahan, domestic, who rushed at the man, and desperate struggle ensued. The man and woman rolled over the floor upsetting the furniture. The brave woman received several gashes from the razor. One extended half the length of hr bare arm. She, however, knocked the weapon from her opponents hand. The maddened burglar then gave her blow that ren- dered her unconscious, and dragged her down stairs by the hair
 In the meantime the 12-year- old child summoned another domestic, and she, too, went al the burglar. Turn

Christiana Steffens Collides With the
 Helen Merriam.

SAN FRANCISCO, March 27.-The schooner Helen Merriam was run down and completely wrecked by the Christiana Steffens last Sunday morn ing twenty-two miles off Point Reyes. Captain Gruggel and three men who comprised the crew of the Merriam, were taken off by the Steffens.
 The Helen Merriam drifted along the ocean and is now perhaps at the bottom. Captain Gruggel lays all the blame of the accident on the Chris tiana Steffens. The latter, he says, had no lights out and could not be dis cerned until she was on top of his yes se.. He says the master of the Stef- fens refused to stand by him and as- sist in saving his vessel.

A New Order Added to
 Phoenix.
The Initiation Is Followed by a
 Banquet.
The Install ation HEM asiaged 6J the Worthy Bro: hsrs Of Pres
 colt Lcdge.

Last evening was added to the secret orders of Phoenix, Phoenix lodge No. 335 of the Order of Eiks.
 Initiation of a class of about forty young bucks was made at Monihon hall by Jake Marks, exalted ruler of Prescott lodge, acting district deputy, assisted by strong representation of Prescottites who before had known the weight of the antlers.
 The iniatory services of the Elks are rumored to be something to be men tioned in gasping whispers, but the goat was soon awelary with the burden of Phoenix brawn. The membership had been recruited from amobg the, very best, yet most ''blooded" of the local masculine population and it is doubtful if a heavier job was ever tackled by any self sacrificing qrladru- ped.
 Then came the installation, the fol- lowing named being seated as officers:
 Dr. J. M Ford, exalted high ruler; c. F. Morrell, esteemed leading knight; Sol Levi, esteemed loyal knight; Judge A. C. Baker, esteemed featuring knight; Mark H. Heissman, secretary; L. J. Wood, treasurer; Sehm Michel son, tyler.
 Following the dread ceremonials. the members by that time being in need of refreshment, the lodge mem bers and visitors formed column and marched to Shattuck's cafe, where the following elaborate menu was dis cussed:
 Eastern Oysters Raw, Queen Olives, sa1ted Almonds, Celery en Branch, Co1somme Clear, Claret, Lobster Salad a "a Mayonaise, Lamb Chops Francaise Aux Petit Pois, Rom ci1 Punch, Chicken Salad French pressing,. Sauterae, Young Turkey. F0mmes Princess, Ham, Tongue, Par ..isian,r Potato Salad. Vanil.a Ice Cream. Lady Fingers, Macaroons- Wine Cake, Edam Cheese, Water Crackers, Cafe Noir, Champagne, Cigars.
 With the cigars, of course, came or atory, and the fact that iBhe midnight now had long passed was far from damper on the wit and wisdom. The various toa5ts called for by Toast
 master J. M. Ford were: Prescott lodge No. 330, '.The Pioneer Elks," responded to by Jake Marks; Phoenix lodge No. 335, "Sprouting Artlers," by Dr. Scott Ha,m; Anticipation vs. Rea,ization,' by Judge A. c. Baker. Then followed melange of toasts and good stories and not tiil cock crow did the jewellers disperse.
 Those present from Prescott were: Henry M. Walters, W. M. Thomas, A. Brow, B. M Belcher, M. McCuMuch, J. Marks. R. B. Dawson. J. Rugby, Ed Roberts, F. Williams, B. H. Smith, B. Goldwater, c. J. Herndon and J. Elm mel.

STATION ROBBED.
The Robbers Use Effective Methods tc
 Get Doodle.

PINOLE, Cal, March 27.-The stage station was entered by three masked men at 1 o'clock Friday morning. The agent, Ed Thompson, was taken from his bedroom adjoining the office and was ordered ito open the safe. He told them he did not know the com mb.nation. Satisfied with this explanation the robbers immediately commenced bor- ing a hole in the safe. Thompson saw there was no use holding out any longer. He opened the safe for them. The robbers secured $50 of railroad and express money and $70 belonging to himself. Thompson was then taken to his room, gagged and tied to his bed. At 1:50 he broke loose and sent a message to Superintendent A. D. Wilder, advising him of what had oc- cured. There was very little light and Thompson is unable to give a very good description of the robbers The station is in an isolated spot and has been robbed six or seven times within the past few years.

THE MARSOVAN MASSACRE.
A Refugee Tells How the Horrible
 Butchering Occurred.

NEW YORK, March 27.-Mihram Dalmajian, an Armenian refugee, who recently escaped from. Turkey and re- gently arrived here, said last night The massacre in Masovan occurred on November 15 last.
 "The first thing on the morning of the massacre was to put a guard of Turkish soldiers around the American college. This was to protect the col lege from attack. Two or three houses in the town in which naturalized American citizens lived were also guarded, though these naturalized cit izens were Armenians by birth.
 "The Turkish soldiers began by killing in cold blood all the Armeni- ans whom they found Tn the market. They did this partly with guns, partly with bayonets, and partly with hatch cts. Then they murdered all the Ar menians whom thsy found in the streets. They did not, however, en- ter any Armenian houses except four, where sevral women were assaulted and killed.
 Meanwhile each of the five mosques in the town had Turk crying out every few minutes that the Armenians were sacking the mosques and killing the Turks. This added greatly to the public excitement and added the Turk ish popuiace to the soldiery.
 "Only 100 persons were killed in all the massacres in Marsovan. It was freely acknowledged by the soldiers that the Armenians were killed by di- rect orders from Constantinople. There are altogether 2,5OO,OOO under Turkish dominion, and if they remain under that rule for ten years longer they will be eNterminated or converted to Mohamme edanism.
 Between 30,OO0 and 10000 Armeni- ans have been massacred up to the present time. The governor of the district is now busy arresting all the young Armenian men whom his sol diers or police find in the streets. The result of this measure is that all the young men are keeping in the house and sending out the old men to buy food"

THE PASSOVER.
Tonight Will Begin the Jewish
 Feast.

Tonight at sunset begins the Jewish Easter of passover. The feast com memorates the going out of Israel from Egypt and the freeing of the He brew nation from bondage. It is eel ebrated on the 14th day of Nissan in the Hebrew calendar. Nissan is the spring months and corresponds to Abib, which is the biblical term as against Nissan" the term given by the Rabbis and the more popular one. The month has fourteen days. The feast of Passah lasts seven days, the first and seventh being holidays, the five intervening days half holidays.
 Services are held in the temples on the first and seventh days. These usually take the form of prayers cele- brating the idea of liberty. The feast of the Hebrew passover is the first au- thent:c record of ceremonials based on the principle of political and physical liberty. The Jewish pentecost fifty days later, which must not be con fused with the Christian pentecost, celebrates the formal declaration of spiritual liberty on Mt. Sinai.
 The seven days of the Jewish Passah are observed by a diet of unleavened bread. The first day usually sees family reunion in each Jewish home with possibly prayers in the evening.

INDIGNANT COMMUNITY. Chastity of Fresno Girls
 Assailed. Travelling Preachers Remarks
 From tho Pulpit.
A Committse Com peIs Him to Sign
 an Apology, Ther Orders Him to Leave Town.

FRESNO, March 27.-The people of Fresno were aroused to a state of warm indignation this morning by the publication in the Morning Republican of an article denouncing Rev. l. T. Johnson, the travelng Evangelist, who has been holding meetings in the Methodist church for some weeks for having repeated from the pulpit a statement which he claimed had been made to him that two-thirds of the girls of this city were ruined before they reached the age of IA years.
 The paper also contained an inter view with 5he preacher in which he admitted having repeated the state ment, but declined to give the source of his information.
 A citizens meeting was called this evening at which Johnson was made to appear. He at first made a general denial of the interview, but finally ad- mitted he had repeated the islander att tributed to him. Upon the demand of the committee he signed the followin g categorical admission and apology: Do you believe that the statements made by you regarding the chastity of the girls of this city which you claim was told you by a friend was un- true, and that you made a mistake when you repeated that statement? ?'' T do and that I will apologize to the community for having made the same.
 (Signed) T. T. JOHNSON"
 The foolish preacher was then or dered to- leave town, which he did.

REPUBLICAN CONVENTION Housing Party Meeting

Thos Bracket the Maine Statesman Presented as PreSiden-
 tiai Candidate.

BOSTON, March 27.-The Republi- can convention was called to order at 1O15 Long before the delegates be- gan to assemble those in the hall filled the time in cheering prominent mem- bers as they entered. The credentials committee reported 1851 delegates present out of 2002 Congressman Samuel w. Mccall of Winchester was chosen permanent chairman. His in- troduetion was the signal for a great ovation. '
 Chairman Mccall addressed him self first to the business situation. He attributed the prevailing business de- pression to the Democratic party. He said the first act of Cleveland was to put the treasury department in the hands of a gentleman with financial incapacity never before known in high office.
 He declared the sale of few bonds at first would have avoided all danger to the gold reserve so built up by Re- publican statesmen, but when the great strike for the preservation of sound currency was once broken tens of millions of bonds were almost use lessly thrown in the breech Review ing National finances since 1861 he said the Republican party had given the country prosperity which had been interrupted as the principle of protec- dion had been threatened. The obvi- ous remedy for the present financial condition is to call back the party that showed a capacity to manage the treasury which has always provided the needed reserve. You want a leader who will make not only a great candi- date, but a great president, whose ad- ministration will strengthen the party through the signal benefits it will con- fer on the country and then ask the Republicans of the Nation to join hands with you Ito put at the head of their column in the battle of 1896 that man of dauntless, courageous, un- stained honor; that great parliamen- tartan who beat down the obstruction that paralyzed the house of repre- sentatives; that broad minded and en- frightened statesman, Thos Bracket, of Maine

GAVE UP THE CASH
THE END OF THE DAVIDSON
BROWN AFFAIR.
There Was No Effort to Convict the Ola
Woman of Extortion, and the Jury
sends Her Away Smiling.

San Francisco, March 25.-Mrs. Mary
A. Davidson was acquitted after brief
trial to-day of the charge of having ex-
torted $500 from Dr. c. o. Brown. The
clergyman and the police detective who
testified merely to the arrest of Mrs.
Davidson were the only witnesses for
the prosecution and the defense pre-
sented no evidence. Brown repeated
the story of how Mrs. Davidson told
him he had been discovered in a liaison
with Miss Overman, and OF how, after
several interviews. he paid the old lady
$780, taking her receipt therefor. In
order to secure a conviction II was
necessary for Brown to admit that he
was induced to pay the money through
fear. This the minister refused to ac-
knowledge, although the question was
asked in half a dozen forms by his
counsel and by the court.
Browns attorney, who assisted the
district attorney in the prosecution, de-
clined to ask the jury to convict on
such testimony and the court had no
recourse but to instruct the jury to ac-
quit This they did without leaving
their seats.

Austin, Texas. March 25.-The repub-

m. Reed men are in charge of all three
committees. The convention immedi-
ately adjourned until 6 p. m. The Nc
Kinleyites have given up the fight.
Reed and Allison men are In control.
The convention did practically moth
ing in the matter of selecting dele
gates to the st. Louis convention at
the daylight session to-day. IL was
o'clock before the convention was call
ed to order. This delay was the result
of Quincy, the Allison temporary chair
man, dickering with the Reed men
about his committees. The Reed forces
demanded OF Quincy a full representa-
ton on committees for their support
in electing him temporary chairman.
They have every one of the committees
as a result. and the chairman of each
is a red-hot Reed man. AS soon as
the committees were announced the
convention adjourned until 6 p. m.
At a late hour tonight the conven-
ton had not been organized and was
awaiting the report OF the committee
on credentials. This committee, OF
which a strong Reed man is chairman,
has been in session since noon, and will
probably not conclude it's labors before
daylight. In the meantime the conven-
ton adjourned until tomorrow morn
