Two Tragic Deaths. 8 Policeman Shot and
Race Riot Inside Of Half an Hour. ]
BIRMINGHAM, Ala, March Is Two
tragic deaths, q policemen shot and q
small race riot in which q dozen per-
sons were more or less hurt, constitute
the net results of what occurred inside
of 80 minutes on the South Side during
the afternoon. A burglary was COM
mitted by Will Huntev, notorious
negro. Policeman William Perdue
was detailed on the case and he found
Hunter and arrested him. Hunter
drew his pistol and fired, striking Per.
due in the jaw, inflicting dangerous
wound. The officer returned the fire,
wounding Hunter fatally in the back.
It developed afterwards that one of
Perdue's shots killed Myrtle Boland, a
5:year-old girl, who was playing in an
alley two blocks away.
When the police finally took Hunter
in charge a mob of negroes followed,
threatening to rescue the wounded
prisoner. A number of white men soon
appeared on the scene and general
free fight ensued in which fully dozen
persons were more or less hurt.

MULDOON VISITS FlTZ.

Not at All Pleased With the Australians
Condition.
CARSON, New, March 16-The sen.
sation Of the day was the declaration
made during the afternoon by William
Muldoon, the famous wrestler, regard
ing Fitzsimmons. Muldoon is an &C.
knowledged authority among sporting
men on matters pertaining to training
and physical culture, and his opinion
carries great weight with them. He
visited Cooks ranch and had long
talk with Fitzsimmons. He looked
him over carefully in order to obtain
as close an estimate as possible of Fitz-
simmons physical condition, and his
opinion expressed after leaving Fitz-
simmons training quarters was not as
favorable as it might have been.
II did not like the looks of his eye, ="
said Muldoon to party of friends. Il
took walk with him, and we had a
long conversation. We discussed the
fight and the prospects of both men,
and Fltzsimmons to me did not seem
to be at all over confident regarding
the result

At Sans Souci, small town imme-

that the waves from the steamers
wheels would break over the levee
The captain, however, attempted to
land, when the boat was met by a
wholesale fusilade of bullets from the
shore, but fortunately no one was hurt

Unknown Disease Kills Forty Persons
Near Prairietown, Ills.
EDwARDsv1LLE, Ills, March 16.-In
the vicinity of Prairietown, a German
settlement IL miles north, a peculiar
disease has been raging during the last
five weeks which has baffled the skill
Of the medical profession. It is singu-
larly fatal, some 40 persons having
died.
DR.. J. M. Armstrong of this city, who
was waiting upon some of the sick,
contracted the ma!ady several days ago
and has since died. Nearly all who

monia, and it is suppos ed to be a form
of acute lobar pneumonia, known in
Europe as the May epidemic. Dr.

Sensational Ending to the Trial of the
Minneapolis Ex-City Clerk.
MINNEAPOLIS, March 16.-The trial
of City Clerk Charles F. Haney for
offering bride of $500 to Alderman
Drew to came a sudden and sensational
termination, the court directing a ver-
dict of acquittal. Alderman Drew,
whose testimony was depended on by
the state for conviction, refused on the
stand to connect Mr.. Haney with the
matter, directly contrary to his testi-
mony before the grand jury.
Judge Smith, in ordering the verdict,
scored Alderman Drew severely, de.
claring that he believed the $500 given
the alderman was a bride. It must
have been that or larceny. He ordered
him held in $4,000 bonds to answer to
the charge Of perjury or larceny before
the next grand jury.

LONG BACKWARD STRIDE

Losdon Times Opinion of the New Tariff
LONDON, March 16.-The Times prints
nearly page of what purports to be
the new tariff schedules, and, COM
menting editorially upon them, says:
"a cursory perusal is enoughtoshow
that q long backward stride is being
made in the direction of the Mckinley
tariff. In whatever way the matter
may be settled, it will involve serious
annoyance and arrangement of bust
ness for British exporters, as we'll as. a
corresponding loss for Americans them
selves.''
Proceeding to comment on Mr..
Smalley's interviews, The Times COM
pares the ~'earnestness Of Mr.. McKin.
ley with the nebulosity Of Mr.. Sher-
man." and says that it cannot under.
stand McKinley's anxiety on the cur.
rency question, because if he looks
around on Russia, Japan and other
countries, he will see that every ma
ton goes it's own way in it's own time
on currency matters, and that the ae-
ton of Russia and Japan raises fornid,
able obs tacles to the realization Of hi.
metalists' dreams.

THE ARBITRATION 4 REATH
Some Of tho Amendments Likely TO He
Reported.

Some 81 the Amendments Likely TO he
Reported.
WASHINGTON, March l6. The
amendments to the arbitration treaty
which probably will be reported to the
senate this week BY the committee on
foreign relations, and which have been
practically ag1 5ee to, will be somewhat
different from those previously sub
mitted by the committee. The Turpie
amendment, Which is Of general scope,
will be adhered to, and others will be
added which will somewhat harmonic
the entire document with this change.
The Turpie provision is added to the
first article Of the treaty, and it recog.
nizes in words the senate as part of
the treaty making power Of the United
States, requires the president to submit
to the senate his formulation of any
claim that he may desire to submit to
arbitration under the treaty.
Another important amendment which
also looks to the recognition Of the sen.
ate's prerogatives which almost beyond
doubt will be 50 omitted to the senate
will eliminate the members of the
members of the United States supreme
court as fixed tribunal of arbitration.
The provisions for members of the
court to act as arbitrator will be Sc
modified as to require the president to
appoint and the senate to confirr, the
members of the tri bunal.
The portion Of the treaty providing
for the appointment of. the king OF
Sweden and Norway as umpire will be
eliminated, the majority of the com.
mittee considering that no umpire will
be necessary.
