CHOP EACH OTHER TO PIECES.
Two Men Take Each others Lives
with Axes.

LITTLE ROCK. Ark, June A horrible
double tragedy was enacted in the woods four
miles from Cabot, a small town in Pulaski
county, yesterday. the parties to the affair
being prominent citizens Of that locality. c.
C. Earrentine and John Brown fought to a
finish with axes and the fight lasted until
both men had received their death wounds.
Tne men had a difficulty over a settlement
and there was bad feeling between them. Yes.
teIday afternoon Barrentine went to the
woods where Brown was at work and started
the alteration. Barrentine struck Brown
with a maui, knocking him down. He then
seized an axe and began choppirg his antag
onist, cutting his legs and bod, in a feNiul
manner. In the melee Brown wrenched the
weapon 'front.' arrentine and literally dis
emboweled his assailant. The gsshes severed
the Liver and laid open his abdomen, but
even in this terrible condition Barrentine
walked a quarter OF a mile to his home.
where he died in great agony. He related the
story of the battle and when an investigation
was made Brown was found where he had
been struck down, and he cannot possibly
recover.
Brown is a school teacher and has always
borne a good reputation. Barrentine was a
middle aged man and leaves a wife and four
children. The two men had been neighbors
from boyhood and had always been friends
until the dispute over the settlement arose.

cedes running powers over the road to all
other railways, and the freight rates are at

ATHENS, June 4-The cabinet decided
this evening to sign a sea armlstice. with
the following conditions:
The Greek fleet will quit Ottoman
waters. Vessels under Turkish or neutral
flags. bound to or returning from Turkish
ports and vessels north OF the armistice
line. will not be examined. Vessels carry
ing troops and munitions for the Turkish
army will not be allowed to enter ports
north of the line. The Turkish fleet must
not leave the Dardanelles. The dispatch of
achievements to garrison towns in the
archipelago Is prohibited"
A requiem mass was celebrated in the
Catholic church here this morning for the
repcse of the souls Of the foreign volunteers
killed in the war with Turkey. A magnif-
cent catafalque, upon which was a sarco?h-
agus enveloped with palms and Greek
flags, occupied the center of the aisle near
the main altar. The sarcophagus was sur
mounted by the sword of the Italian, Santa
Rosa. who fought during the war for Greek
independence.
All of the cabinet ministers and members
of the diplomatic corps we're present, in
addition to an enormous gathering of Carl
baldians and other foreign volunteers, who
furnished a guard of honor for the occasion.
LONDON, June At Is officially stated
that Count Muravieff, the Russian foreign
minister, has expressed to the Greek minis
ter at st. Petersburg his personal sympathy
and his hope that Greece will be able to save
the harvest in Thessaly.
1t is also understood chat Germany now
advocates the Turkish evacuation of Thes-
sally, providing Greece gives a satisfactory
guaranty of paying the indemnity. But
there is every indication that Turkey in
tends TO remain in Thessaly.
The powers have advised Greece to accept
Turkeys demand aud raise the blockade.
Greece in turn insists upon some guaranty
that Turkey will keep her promise not to
land munitions Of war. 1t is therefore doubt
full whether the armistice difficulty will be
settled. 1t is reported from Constantinople
that the peace negotiations have been agreed
to, but this probably means that the am
bassadors have been invited to submit drafts
of details.

GLOW JOINTS" WANT A SECRETARY
Meet Monday to Agree Upon n Man
for the Place.


for the Place.
There will be a meeting Of the local pas
senger association on Monday to elect an
other secretary. w. A. Russell, who was
elected about ten days ago to that position,
left for Kansas City Thursday, where he
will act as temporary secretary Of the local
passenger association. The reason why the
low joints will have to take another
crack at the question OF a secretary is said
TO be because Of the refusal OF ole of the
Omaha lines to allow sufficient wages to be
paid to retain Mr.. Russell in this city.
Just who the new secretary will be Is a
matter of conjecture. All the candidates
who were after the place two weeks ago,
with the exception Of Martin ]. Bowling. are
in the field again. He withdrew from the
race this morning. The name of J. w. Mum
OF the Elkhorn, who made such an efficient
secretary for the local association prior to
its disruption, has been again brought for
ward, and a majority of the lines are known
to favor his election. 1t is necessary to
have a unanimous and not a mere majority
vote in order to elect 1t is barely pos
sible that the line that refuses to allow
the secretary more than 4 picayune COM
pensation will be prevailed upon to raise
fits limit, and In that case Mr.. Russell may
return. Many consider 1t likely that Chair
man Caldwell Of the Western Passenger as
ISOLATION will appoint a temporary secretary
TO serve here until the Tow joints are
able to harmonize matters.

ACCUSE IT OF BAD FAITH
Union Pacific officials So Charge the
Short Line Management
BITTER FEELING BETWEEN THE ROADS
Agreement with the rio Grnnde
Western Alleged to Have Been
Made while Yet Treating
with the Union Pacific.

The explanation OF the hostile feeling exist.
Ing betreen the officials Of the Union Pacific
aud Of the oregon Short Line, as stated in
yesterdays issue Of The Bee, lies In the fact
that the Short Line people proceeded to close
n trafic agreement with the Rio Grande
Western while negotiations with the Union
Pacific were stiIl pending. That this was
the cause of the rupture is acknowledged by
Union Pacific officials in this city. The mat
ter formed the principal subject OF CONVEX
sation throughout local railway circles yes
terday.
Railroad men generally support the action
OF the Union Pacific officials, when not speak
ing merely for their own line. but upon
the matter OF good faith and fair treatment
In making railroad negotiations. Although
the officials Of other lines hailed with delight
the opening OF the Ogden gateway because
OF the chance il gave them to get into the
northwest territory, they DO not hesitate to
condemn as an unprecedented act Of bad
faith the action OF the Short Line officials In
concluding negotiations with the Rio Grande
Western while they were still in conference
with the officials Of the Union Pacific re-
garding traffic arrangements.
Said a railroad official to a Bee reporter
yesterday: II guess the Short Line people
won't hnd their wool business, which forms
the chief traffic from that part OF the coun
try, quite so profitable now. Heretofore they
have been allowed payment OF l75 miles for
every 100 miles the business was actually
carried. Now they will receive payment on
the basis OF 100 miles for every 100 miles
of actual mileage, and no more. That will
make considerable difference in their earn
ings, | fancy. Besides. they cannot, by their
new connections. make as quick time with
their freight to the Omaha, Kansas City
or Chicago markets by from twenty-four to
thirty. six hours. as by the connection they
Just decided to ignore. The Short Line people
think they have made a deal that will
greatly swell their earnings, but they may
be disappointed when the first annual state
ment Is made up"
Said another railroader, whose position Is
such as to emphasize whatever he says:
"RailrOading, as well as politics. makes
strange bed fellows. Now here's the case
of w. II. Bancroft, the general manager OF
the Short Line. For years past there has
been a most hostile feeling between him and
General Manager Dodge OF the Rio Grande
Western. They wouldn't speak to each other,
and II one saw the other coming along on
the same side OF the street he would cross
TO the opposite side or go around the block.
There ceuld not have been any more bitter
feeling than there was there. Now, they
are thicker than two peas In a pod, and Mr..
Bancroft hardly notices the men of the Union
Pacific. who gave him every position he ever
held, and who went out OF their way to help
him into his present position"

Frank Hall, a Burlington railroad man.
and o. r. Moore of York have reported to
the police that a bold attempt was made
to hold them up in the vicinity Of the union

They succeeded in escaping from their assail-
ants, however, without losing a1y of their
property.
The attempt was made in the railroad
yards. The two men were approached by
four "hobos'' and were ordered to halt and
hand over whatever they had in their pos
session. The tramps displayed no weapons
and therefore Hall and Moore stood their
ground. The tramps shortly desisted from
their attempt at robbery and ran away. The
police have a good description Of the would

CHICAGO, June 4.-Charles r. Person, the
Belleplaine, Kan, ex-oanker. who took
poison in the Grand Central hotel yesterday
and died at midnight, seems TO have taken
his life to meet an obligation due a friend.
One Of the letters found in the mans room
was addressed to a man named Bowman,
who lives in st. Louis. This letter stated
in substance that Person was indebted TO
Bowman and that Bowman was the last OF
a number Of creditors. 1t seems, according
to the letter, that Bowman had been press
ing his claim for the money due him from
Person and that the latter had been unable
to raise It.. In the letter Person censures
Bowman severely, saying that had Bowman
wished he could have assisted Person in his
time OF troubles instead of pressing him
for the money he was unable to raise. In
concluding the letter Person states that
Bowman is his last al only creditor and
insinuating that the Money would be paid.
The letter hints at suicide, and the police
say Person took his own life in order that
Bowman might be paid out of his insurance

Declaration OF Principles.
MoHoNK LAKE. N. Y, June 5.-The Mo-
honk international arbitration conference to-
day adopted the following declaration OF
principles:
The Civilized world may we'll rejoice at the
unprecedented progress In the cause OF In
ternational arbitration during the past year.
We deplore the Temporary check to the
cause by the failure Of the senate to ratify
the proposed treaty with England, but we
recall the majority OF the senate. large,
though less than the necessary two-thsrds,
and we believe that while the small minority
honestly opposed IL, their reasons were not
such as to permanent suuaort.
The. overwhelming majority OF the court
should only be stimulated by this temporary
failure to more Jealous activity, urging our
executive to renew the treaty with such
modliieations, II any. as may be approved
IN the light OF the recent study of the sub
ject by the senate. our country should also
make a similar treaty with france. Ger
whose parliaments have taken action in
FAVOR OF a permanent system OF arbitration
between civilized nations, ana with all other
countries which may take similar action.
We look forward hopefully 10 the creation
tn some form OF an international court. al
ways open for the settlement of differences
which diplomacy may fail to adjust, to
which court any nation may resort.
The thanks of this conference are rendered
TO eN-lresident Cleveland, ex-SeCretary OIL
rey and Sir Julian pauncefote for their emf
nent services In the cause or International
arbitration, and to President Mckinley and
Secretary Sherman for their hearty support
OF the same great cause. The outburst OF
public approval of this treaty proves the
growing power of Christian conscience.

NEW YORK. June John K. cowan.
one Of the receivers OF the Baltimore & Ohio
road, who arrived here this evening, stated
In reply to questions that there had been no
forcing of the Baltimore g. Ohio to maintain
rates at the meeting OF last Tuesday. He
said that Mr.. Murray and himself had a
pleasant Interview with Presidents Thomas
and Depew and made two propositions based
on the principle that the Baltimore & Ohio
had nothing to gain by cutting rates and
everything to gam by maintaining them.
The first proposal was that the Baltimore
& Ohio would absolutely maintain rates and
agree to abide by any award for reparation
made by President VI. p. Thomas OF the Erie
in case Of a failure. provided other roads
would do the same. This offer was not ac-
cepted, and the second, to absolutely main
tain rates, provided other roads do the same,
and conine businos to a fixed percentage
Of New York traffic, as named in the propo-
sition. was accepted.
