AN IGNOMINIOUS
4 DEATH
Susan A. Trusty Taken III on
Delaware Avenue-Died in
the Drug Store in the
New Century Build
lg.

A mystery surrounds the death Of Susan
A. Trusty, middle-aged colored woman,
who died in the drug store of the New
Century building last evening about 0
O'Clock. The woman was walking along
Delaware avenue when she was taken sud-
denly Ill and carried into the drug store
and DIR. ]. ]. Jones summoned. The wo-
mans symptoms denoted that she had taken
poison of some kind, and although the ply
stefan went to work on her he was unable
to save her life.
The woman was conscious when the doc
tor arrived and answered the questions
put to her. She said that she had not been
drinking anything.
The woman was employed as domestic
in the family of Victor du Pont, and went
out early in the evening to make several
calls. About O'Clock she visited Richard
Fl. Weeks, who is employed by Henry
Grant at No. 1lO4 Pennsylvania avenue.
She had just left him when she was taken
sick. Weeks says that she did not have
anything to drink while In his house, but
complained of being sick when she came
in. She did not tarry long and had not
been gone more than five minutes when
he received word that she was sick.
DR.. Jones, the physician who attended
her. said that she acted very much like
woman who had swallowed some kind of a
poison. What it was he would not say.
Deputy Coroner Chandler will hold post
mortem on the body this morning. Police
man Gilling Is working on the case. The
body was removed to the womans late
home, Fourth and Lincoln streets. Her
friends do not think that she took poison
with suicidal intent, as she appeared to be
in good spirits. She was well known
among her race in this city

stood the shock. AS it was she was pulled
clear Of the rocks, and is now tied to the
big stone ice breakers at Marcus Hook,
and is thus protected from the heavy Ice
gorges In mid river.
The big vessel, however, Is seriously
damaged and it is impossible to say just
when she will be able to go into active
service. At present she is in no danger of
further damage, being fully protected in
the safe anchorage afforded by the Ice
breakers Just how the accident occurred
can only be established by court Of in
quiry, and this Captain Cook, ofrthe
Brooklyn, has already asked for.
What makes the accident even still
more deplorable is the fact that this was
the first time the ship has been handled
by the present officers and crew since
going into commission in the early part
Of December Since then she has been
lying at League Island navyyard, and cer-
tain small repairs had delayed her sail

A Band of Ignorant Marauders Led by a
Religious Fanatic.

hehgiOus fnnatic.
WASHINGTON, Feb brazilian Min
lister Medonca attaches no political i'm
portance to the operations of the fauatical
bands that are committing outrages in
the state of Bahia, and predicts that the
government will succeed in putting a
stop to their activity. Hesays those bands,
which, according to newspaper accounts
amount to about 5000 armed persons, are
under the leadership of one Antonio Con-
selheiro, u native Of the state of Ceara, in
the northern part of Brazil, who became
insane as result Of killing his mother in
an unintentional manner In rather
dramatic family episode.
Subsequently he became religious ia
natic considered himself the Messiah and
migrated to the state of Bahia, where he
enlisted number of persons who re-
garded themselves as reformers. They
committed many depredations in the
sparsoly settled portions of the interior of
the state, until tho government finally dis
patched soldiers, who succeeded in killing
anumber Of the outlaws. Conselheiro had
promised his followers that if they were
killed they would be resuscituted again in
sixty days, but as this did not result in
the cases of those shot by the troops the
fanatic for u time lost caste and prestige
with them.
Later, it appears, he again managed to
persuade number Of the people, who are
very ignorant and superstitious, to rally
to his standard, and their depredatng op-
erations were resumed. The minister has
no doubt the government will be ablo to
suppress the marauders

IN SENATE AND HOUSE.
The Nicaragua Canal Bill VIII be Dis
posed or This Week.

posed or This Week.
WASHINGTON, Feb 1.-The time Of the
house this week will be devoted almost
entirely DO the consideration Of appropria-
tion bills, of which the consular and dip.
lomatic and the District Of Columbia aie
on tho calendar. The fortifcations and
sundry civil also will be ready before the
end Of the week. The District Of Colum-
bia bill contains a large nnmber of items
of local Importance to the Nstrict which
will cause considerable debate, but there
Is little in the diplomatic bill to create
conflict. 1t can be, however, and usually
Is, productive of more or less debate on
our foreign relations 1t is possible that
an effort will be made In the house, as Ii
was in the committee to raise the salaries
of the consuls below $2, 500 to the latter
figure But the attempt, If made, will
probably fail.
The week in the senate opened with fur.
ther discussion Of the Nicaragua canal
bill. 1t is expected that this bill will be
disposed Of in some manner during the
first half of the week. II is thought now
that II Senator Morgan asks for night
session at all he will not do so until to.
morrow. 1t is admitted that majority
of the senate favor the bill and will vote
for it If 1t comes to VOTE but whether
they will voluntarily deprive themselves
of q nights rest to insure its passage re.
mains to be seen. Senators Villas and Tur.
pie will oppose the bill by oil the means
at their command, and will filibuster to
prevent It's passage. They will also have
assistance from other senator's. If the bill
does not reach vote by the middle of the
week there will be great pressure to get
up other measures Senator Lodge ex.
poets to secure consideration of the con.
ference report on the immigration bill
during tho week, The arbitration treaty
will be reported ut tho first executive ses.
sion, and an early day asked for its dis.
cussion.
