 New York, July 4.-Another candi- date for fame met death to-day in jumping from the Brooklyn bridge He was Captain w. c. Keeble, who had a reputation of jumping from bridges and masts of vessels. The bridge police re- ceived a tip of the coming event on Saturday evening. Captain Ward at once ordered three patrolmen stationed at either end of the bridge while an of- ficer in citizens clothes was sent to watch at No. 196 Christie street, New
 York, where it was learned that Kee-
 ble lived. The officer remained there until o'clock this morning when he re- tired to the bridge office.
 Two hours later Keeble with three companions left the Christie street ad-
 dress in a coach and drove to the Cath crime ferry where they crossed over to Brooklyn and from there went to the bridge entrance. paid their fare and proceeded slowly to the center of the span in the north roadway, when the coach stopped and the party aiighted. Officer Thomas Grady, who was some distance away, saw Keeble climb tn the top of the rail and running toward

THE GULDENSUPPE MURDER.
No Specially New Developments Game to
 the Surface Yesterday.

New York, July 4.-Acting Inspector O'Brien said to-day that nothing new had developed in the Guldensuppe murder mystery. Sergeant McCauley said that the detectives in the bureau were still engaged In working on vari- ous phases of the case in order to strengthen the evidence in their hands against Mrs. Mack, the prisoner It IS the firm belief of the police that the man was murdered in Woodstock, L. l., from evidence gathered in that nelghberfpod, and considerable amount of the labor performed by the detectives to-day was expended in and about the Long Island village.
 Detectives OConnell and Krouch were sent by Inspector O'Brien In the morning to make a thorough examina- tion of the premises in which the mur- der is believed to have been committed.
 In the course of the afternoon a tel ephone message was received from Dis trict Attorney Young of Brooklyn in- auiring concerning the evidence the po- lice have of the murder having been committed in that jurisdiction Mir Young was referred to the district at- torney of the county

CARNEY THE WORLD,S CHA1PrON. The American Defeats the Celebrated Irish Handba1l Expert.

New York, July 4.-William Carney of
 Swineford. County Mayo. Ireland. who for the last few years has been 8 resi-
 dent of Chicago, met James Fitzgerald
 of Tralee, County Kerry Ireland. at
 Phil Casey's hand-ball court In Brook lyn this afternoon in the final half of the rubber of. 15 games which decided the worlds championship at hand ball. Three weeks ago to-day these men
 met-in Kennedys ball court in Chicago. when Carney won six of the seven
 games played. To-day Fitzgerald had
 a heavy handicap, as he had to win
 seven straight games in order to get
 the much coveted title of champion Of
 the world. Fitzgerald arrived in this country
 last winter and is at disadvantage I'm
 the American game because at the back
 of the Irish court there is an open space, while under the American rules there Is solid wall. He acquitted
 himself very creditably though and de- spite the fact that he was beaten the game that he put up was excellent. | The spectators were very impartial
 and applauded the men when either one made brilliant play Carney was 1 looked after by Matthew Foley and | William Really of Chicago, and Jim
 Hughes of Castlebar, Ireland, while Fitzgerald was handled by Phil Caseys l Landy and O'Leary.

SCREAMING OF THE EAG1E.
Many Bonfire Celebrations Last Evening
 One Heap of 800 Barrels.

B
 One Heap of 500 Barrels.
 It is well that this morning the cele- bration of the glorious Fourth begins as 1t is doubtful if the pent up enthusi- asm of the patriotic small boy and the fun loving big boy could be much long CT held in restraint. Even Saturday evening sporadic popping of fire crack CTS and the crash of an occasional can non cracker aroused the terror of timid old maids and the anger of irascible old men. Out Silver street way the young men and boys could not wait another day and so they heaped up a huge pile of boxes, barrels and every combusti- ble material on which they could lay hands and set the pile ablaze. Near by were three newly painted houses and the heat of the big bonfire scorehed these badly. For this the big and lit tie boys of Silver street and vicinity were not allowed by the police to have any bonfire last night.
 But if those of Silver street were barred from the joys of bonfire, the boys of other parts of the city were not. Big blazes were had at the following places: Corner of Locust and East streets. East and Greene streets on Broadway, corner of Oak and Broad, on Congress avenue just above Ere senius' brewery, and Morris street near Putnam.
 The pile at Locust and Cedar streets was not allowed to blaze out in celebra- tion of Independence Day, as there are several frame buildings near by and it was feared that these would catch fire. Near by, however, at East and Greene street was another huge heap and there the celebrating crowds of that section gathered. The heap on Morris street was said to contain 800 barrels and was a mammoth pile, probably the largest | in the city.
 l All the police tried to do while the | bonfres were burning was to protect property. The police will confiscate every pistol fired within the city limits to-day. The capture averages 20 pistols every Fourth.

YESTERDAY's LIQUOR RAIDS.
Only Two Made and Those in the Grand
 Avenue Precinct.

A close watch was kept by the ofIi- cers of the Grand avenue precinct yes- terday for violators of the Sunday liq uor law. Although the day was so warm and conducive to thirst the dis pensers of liquid refreshments seemed to have taken warning from the raids made on the previous Sunday and few attempts were made to sell. The vigi- lance of the officers was, however, re- warded in two instances during the day.
 At o'clock in the morning Sergeants Doherty and Hayes who were walking through East street. noticed men com ing out of the house at 137 Wallace street, where Thomas Burns and other tenants reside. The officers entered the building and having a warrant, search- ed the Burns quarters, where they have suspected for some time that liq- uor was being sold without license Mrs. Burns who was in the house at the time, protested that there was no however began a search. They had gone through tHG TOOillS Ullu lUuilu nothing until they began to search be- hind some clothing hung on the wall. There hung behind dress on clothes hook they found a quart bottle about two thirds full of whiskey, the Burns having apparently just began to sell out of the bottle. No arrest was made.
 The officers saw party of eight men coming out of the saloon of Dem his Cooley, at 266 East street in the forenoon, and thinking that all was not right there they entered the place. Everything appeared to be all right in the saloon and up stairs. but on enter ing the cellar, the officers found evi- dence that beer was being sold. Cooley was in the cellar. but no customers were present, the eight who had just gone out having evidently seen the off cers coming and vacated. A quantity of bottled beer was found in the cellar and none of the doors was locked. Cooley stated to the police that he nev- CT kept his cellar locked, but in view of the fact that there was quantity of beer there the officers did not believe his story. No arrest was made but will probably follow later.

briefly on account of the lateness of the hour. He quoted LongfelloWs Paul Revere's Ride" and added:
 "A hundred years ago were call ing together the men of the land for warfare. To-day England and America stand together and are marching for ward to conquer the world for Christ and His kingdom. We are now being called together to battle for the pre- dominance of the English speaking race, for the advancement of our com mon heritage, the kingdom of our com ing Saviour. Paul Reveres summons to arms is melting away into the sweeter harmony of peace.
 He then fitly complimented the boys on their scholarly fortitude and pa ,tience during the long and trying ser vice. The burglar sounded taps and the meeting was closed.

Address to Veterans,

Rev ,Dr. Chadwick preached a pat riotic sermon at the Grace M. E. church
 last evening. On invitation of Dr. Chad wick about seventy-five members of Admiral Foote post were present. and about twenty-five members of the Wo- mans Relief corps of the post. Dr. Chadwick traced briefly the courses leading up to the signing of the Declaration of Independence, and de- scribed graphically the scene as the old bell ringer in Philadelphia rang out
 the glad announcement that the decla-
 ration had been signed, Continuing the l speaker said, among other things: "The United States. I think, were
 born of necessity.

WILL PASS THE TARIFF THIS WEEK
That Is the Present Outlook in the Senat,
 What the House Will Do.

Washington, July 1.-The outlook for the week in the senate is quite uncer- the tariff bill will be passed, but whether early or late in the week is by no means certain. The various provi- sions for a stamp tax, for a beet sugar bounty and for the suppression of trusts threaten to develop considera- ble debate, and there is a prospect of general speeches by Senators Bate, Mills, Chiffon, Allen and others.
