FIERCE DEBATES
IN THE RE|cHS TAG
Practices in the German
Army That Must
Cease.
Herr Lenzeman Declares That
the Government Should
Beware.
Revolution May Be Threatened by
the People if Reforms Are Not
Promptly Enacted.

BERLIN, GERMANY. Nov. 19.-The de-
bate on the Radical motion in regard to
the practice of dueling in the army and
the case of Lieutenant Baron von Bruse-
witz, who recently murdered Herr Sieb-
mann in a cafe in Carlsruhe. was resumed
in the Reichstag to-day. Herr Heller, a
Bavarian deputy and lawyer, defended
the procedure of the military courts,
which he admitted might be amended.
lie was not prejudiced in favor of it, but
the procedure gave every defendant fair
trial.
Herr Heller denied the statement made
on Tuesday by Herr Bebel that the Public
Prosecutor always presided over military
courts.
Herr Rickert said he was indisposed to
hold the army or the army system respon-
sible for the act of Lieutenant von Bruse-
witz.
Egen Reichlin-Meldegg, a Bavarian
army officer and deputy, protested against
the attempts of the Radicals to compare
the Bavarian military institutions with
those of Prussia, in order to make the
latter appear miserable. The German
army, he said, ought to be one, and 1t was
desirable that the same system of pro-
cedure should prevail everywhere.
Herr Lenzeman, Richterite Radical. said
that the German people had waited long
enough for reforms and they must now
press them without delay. He deplored
the fact that the debut of General Won
Gossler. Minister of War; had been such a
lamentable failure. Laughter.l He gave
an instance of the tendency of military
Cd tfoY, in, hao trlrxy -
who, upon being asked who were the in
ternal foes Of Germany, replied, "CiYil-
ians."
Herr Lenzeman concluded by saying
that the Government must beware. If re-
forms are longer withheld the nation
might have to resort to Volksmothwehe
"a peoples self-defense action).
Some one on the public benches called
out ''Revolution!' whereupon Herr Len
Zeman said: 81 want to avoid foreign
word, but if you like it 1 will call it 'revo-
luton. Tremendous cheering from the
members of the Left.1
General Won Gossler. Minister of War,
made a feeble reply, which was only
partly heard above the frequent interrupt
tions by jibes, laughter, etc., in which he
said: If you continue your attitude
against the army, beware. If the army is
now silent its irritation is increasing"
DIR. Schonstedt, Minister oil Justice, ad-
mitied that the army dueling code must
be reformed, but defended the Govern
ment as trying to do the best thing it
could under the circumstances.
Count Burbach followed, making a
fierce attack upon Herr Lenzeman for
having. as he alleged, gone beyond the
latitude of speakers in the House and
threatening the country with revolu-

On the local exchange Mr.. Arbuckle con-
trolled the Cripple Greek and Central City
Company, of which he was president,
the Delaware Chief mine in Gilpin County.
and he held large block of Medinah

ERIE, Pa, Nov. 19-Erie relatives and
friends of Frank P. Arbuckle received

United Press dispatch. The deceased was

News OF his death came as severe shock
to his father, w. s. Arbuckle, aged 50
years, and Mrs. Arbuckle, 80 years of age
The deceased was brother of ex- Collector
OF the Port Richard Arbuckle.

AGAINST DUAL MEMBERSHIP.
Knights of Labor Decide That Worki1ome1
Should Not Belong to More Than
One ORGANIZATION.

ROCHESTER,, n. X, Nov. 19.-The
delegates of the General Assembly of the
Knights OF Labor settled an i'm portant
question this morning, that of dual mem
bership. While it does not affect all
trades 1t affects that of the brewery work
ingmen. the mem bers of which generally
belong to both the Knights of Labor and
the American Federation OF Labor. A
year ago the Federation decided their
members could not belong to other labor
organizations, and to-day the Knights fol-
lowed suit so far as the brewers are con-
cerned and decided that they must with
draw from either one or the other
The Knights voted this afternoon not to
put the free coinage of silver plank in
their preamble. The idea of adopting this
plank originated with General Master
Workman Sovereign, but the Knights
thought by its being put into the pream BILE
it would bar from the organization all
who were not free silverites. The discus
sion occupied the greater part of two days.
plan Tor the adoption of a new canal
system was presented in behalf of District
Assembly No. 40 of New York. The idea
advanced is that the Government should
have control of all the canals between the
Atlantic and Pacific, the object being the
with the railroads. A strong declaration
against the National banking system was
presented and the Knights condemned the
system.
The com mittee on law reported on
propositions from various districts to re-
duce the executive board to three men,
bers. The proposition was lost, several of
the delegates having gone home, and it
was not possible to get the necessary two
thirds vote on the question
The section of the constitution that pre-
vents the formation of a compulsory bene-
nclai society within the Knights OF Labor
was struck out, leaving no rule against
such formation.
The question of settlement of general
and local assembly was raised by the in
sertion OF the following words: "Provin-
ciai rational trade associations are SOW
ereign In their own jurisdiction in trade
matters and no appeal can be taken in
their decisions in such disputes. Joint
district boards shall be formed in ali To-
callties where contiguous districts exist. -
The Cold Blast Feather Company of
Chicago was placed on the unfair list.

Counter Afidavits-
CHICAGO, Ill, Nov. 19.-Miss Emma
c. Cox and the Bishop family, which were
charged by affidavits in the Federal court
yesterday with exerting influences hyp-
motto and otherwise over the young woman
to effect her dismissal of suit against P.
c. S. Reed of Los Angeles for an account
ing OF her fathers estate, presented their
side of the case to-day in affidavit form to
the court. Miss Cox asserts that all
charges of influence are false, and that the
charge that she fed to Buffalo with
Charles Q. Bishop, a married man, is
maliciously false. She saws she is living
here apart from the Bishop family and
sticks TO her petition for dismissal of the
suit, which she declares would never have
been begun but for the false representa-
tions made by her mother and others
against DR.. Reed. Miss Cox's statements
are supported by Orris A. Bishop and his
son Charles, the elder explaining that he
acknowledged the signature of the girl to
her petition for dismissal at her request
and without giving her any advice.

JUMPED FROM A TRAIN.
Pursuit of Desperate Convict BY a Fool
ish Harden Ends in Both Being
Fatally Injured.

PITTSBURG, Pa, Nov. ia desper-
ate attempt for freedom, which resulted in
the loss OF two lives, was made this morn
ing near this city. A gang OF sixteen
convicts was being conveyed from Erie,
Pa, to the Western penitentiary at ALE.
ghany City, to which institution they had
been sentenced for various offepses. The
men were handcuffed and were in the care
OF Warden McCrea and Deputy Geibel.
All went well until point eleven miles
from this city was reached, when Patrick
Cronin, who was sitting near the door,
suddenly sprang up, dashed through the
doorway and jumped from the RAPIDLY
moving train. He had evidently been
working with his handouts until he had
succeeded in getting his hands free, for the
irons were found under the seat that he
had occupied.
His escape was so unexpected that the
officers could do nothing to prevent it.
They saw him leap from his seat and the
next moment they saw him huddled up on
the track, where he had fallen.
Another moment and without waiting
for the train to slow up Warden McCrea
jumped from the train in pursuit of
CropIn, and such was the speed of the
train that he, too, fell as he struck the
ground.
As soon as possible the train was stopped
and backed, and Deputy Geibel hurried to
the assistance of his chief. The two men
were found lying close together on the
track. Warden McCrea was unconscious
and blood was flowing freely from numer-
Gus cuts in his body and about his head.
Cronin, the prisoner, was conscious, but
was very badly hurt.
The two men were placed on the train
and were brought TO Allegheny City Am
balances were summoned. McCrea, who
was still unconscious, was taken to the
Jerome Hospital, but he died before
reaching that institution. Cronin was
taken to the Western penitentiary and
now lies in the hospital OF the prison.
The doctors say that there is no hope of
his recovery.
Cronin was a desperate man. He was
on his way to the penltentiary to serve
five years for trainrobbery.

and religious work in which he has been
so active and efficieit."
