VICTIMS OF SMOKE.
Two Visitors and an Inmate Of an Evil
Resort SuffOcated.

JAMESTOWN, N. Y, Nov. 27. = At 4
O'Clock this morning a fire in the Atlantic
block, on First street, in this city, resulted
in the death of three persons-Walter L.
Sessions, of PanamaS August w. Jordan,
address unknown. but believed to be con-
nected in some capacity with the New York
Central Railroad, and Sadie Voss. of Buff
falo. The building was occupied for Illicit
purposes. The woman was one of the in
mates and the two men who lost their lives
were visitors. The origin of the fire is un-
known. The building was not badly dam
mayed, the fire having been confined to the
two rooms occupied by the three persons,
who perished. 1t is thought from the ap-
pearance of the bodies that death came
from su1focation. The burns on the bodies
were not deep, but the faces in each case
were blackened and bltstered almost be-
yond recognition.
The girl, Sadie Voss, Of Buffalo, or Sadie
Kenney, as she was also known, is said to
be we'll connected. Mr.. Sessions was son
of the late Walter L. Sessions, who repre-
sented this district in Congress many years
and was one of the worlds fair commis-
sioners of New York. Young Mr.. Sessions
was also connected with the commission in
a clerical capacity. He was member of
the Republican county committee of this
county and was announced as a candidate
for assembly for the convention to be held
next summer. A jury has been impaneled
to inquire into the fatality.

HAWAII AND JAPAN.
No Progress Made i'm Settling the Dis
pute Over Immigrants.

HONOLULU, Nov. 90, via San Francisco,
Nov. 27.-Advices received to-day from ia
pan state that no progress has been made
in the negotiations about the emig"ant af-
fair, owing to the fact that Hawaii sticks
invariably to the policy of procrastination
in the hope, it is claimed, of transferring
the responsibility of paying the compensa-
ton to the United States, if annexation is
effected At this juncture another difficulty
has sprung up. A certain emgrant COM
pany in Honolulu has unlawfully appro
priated the deposit money of the immi-
grants, and Minister Shimamura attempted
to bring the matter before the authorities.
The company, greatly astonished at the at
titude CO the minister, threatened to dis
close all the weak points of Japan in the
negotiations at issue should the minister
insist on carrying out his plan to the bitter
end. Under these circumstances the current
trouble is at present in state of suspense.
While matters stand in this way in Hawaii,
the relations of Japan with the United
States have become more friendly and the
latter is inclined to advise the Hawaiian
government to pay the indemnity at once
to Japan IL it really desires annexation cf
Hawaii to the United States. Before long
instructions will be dispatched to that effect
to Minister Sewall at this place. In fact,
the Hawaiian government may be induced
to accept the proposal of the United States
and pay the damages, as heavy expense
will be incurred in leaving the dispute to
arbitration. Should this turn out to be a
fact the Hawaiian affair will be settled
earlier than expected.
According to advices from Yokohama, the
Japanese government has forwarded to the
Hawaiian government claim for damages
in the emigrant affair. The amount claimed
is said to be about 100000 yen ($20O GOO,
which includes the loss incurred by the
emigrants and the expense of diSpatching
a man-of-war to Honolulu. The Yomui
state that President Dole of Hawaii wishes
to withdraw his proposal to submit the emf
grant affair to arbitration, and pay 100000
as compensation for damages. The reason
for this change of front is said to be that
he is now anxious to effect annexation cf
the islands to the United States and is of
the opinion that to attain this all obstacles
must be removed. 1t is also stated that the
United States minister in Hawaii has al
ready made an official report to that effect
to his home government.
The Indianapolis journal. [volume] (Indianapolis [Ind.]) 1867-1904, 1897-11-28
Hawaii Given No Advice.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 27.-The officials
here know nothing of any intention on the
part of our government to advise Hawaii
to pay Immediately to Japan, without wait
ing on an arbitration, the sum of money
claimed by Japan on account of the turn
ing back from Honolulu of Japanese la
borers last spring. On the contrary. the
Department of State, it is said, has care
fully refrained from interfering by sugges-
ton or otherwise between Japan and Ha-
waii in the settlement of the matter at is
sue and there Is no reason now to expect
a change of course. 1t is not understood
here that the naming by Japan of the sum
of $500 900 as the claimed indemnity binds
Hawaii to pay that much. 1t is merely
maximum limitation which the rules of ar
bitration require to be placed on claim
wherever possible. Touching the theory
that the settlement of, the claim is being
purposely delayed by Hawaii in order to
throw 1t upon the United States after an
nexation shall have become an accom-
pliShed fact, it is said that nothing could
be gained by such a course, since the pend
ing annexation treaty provides in terms
that the Urited States shall not assume
liability of exceeding $4000,O00 on account
of annexation, and it is understood that
there is already outstanding obligations to
nearly that amount.

GENERAL CLAY THREATENS.
His BrOther-in-Law Must Leave the
Country or Be Killed.

VALLEY VIEW, KY. Nov. N.-The sep
aration of Dora Richardson Clay from her
aged husband, General Cassius al. Clay.
took q sensational turn yesterday, when
the general sent William Richardson, his
wife's brother, word that he would give
him $500 to leave the county, and if he
would not accept the offer he would kill
him. He believes Richardson is trying to
prevent Dora from returning to Whitehall.
and he insinuateS that Richardson has as
sisted in robbing him of his wines and
other valuables. General Clay is furious at
his neighbor, Charles Haden, for building
Richardson cottage on his place. He
says Richardson has been installed in this
house so that he can keep watch over the
movements of Dora and ii possible prevent
her from living with him as his Wife When
Richardson arrived here he was in an ex-
cited condition. He went to his brother
Clells house and told him and Dora of the
generals threats. Dora Immediately wrote
her husband a letter stating that William
was in nowise responsible for her leaving
Whitehall. William says he will not leave,
and more trouble is feared.

MIR. BROPHY is OUT.
Terre Haute Letter Carrier Disznissedi
by POstOhice Authorities.

Special to the Indianapolis Journal.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 27. - Michael J..
Brophy, a letter carrier of Terre Haute,
Ind, was to-day finally and formally dis
missed from the service by order of the
time ago, it will be recalled, charges were
preferred against Brophy by the postmaster.
and following close on this were filed coun-
ter-charges against the postmaster by Bro
ply. The case caused endless trouble to
the postoffice officials, as well as to the
Civil-service Commission. After thorough
investigation the charges against the post
master were dismissed and those made
against Brophy were not deemed of suffi-
severe than a reprimand. When this
became known the postmaster at Terre
Haute wrote First Assistant Heath incIos-
ing long series of supplemental charges
against Brophy 1t was upon these supple
mental charges that Brophy was to-day dis
missed. The most serious charge, and the
one having the greatest weight with the
department, was one that alleges that Bro
ply had shown favoritism in that he failed
to aftix overdue stamps or collect upon
letters found not to have sufficient postage
placed on them by the SenderS. 1t is un-
derstood that the department annually loses
many thousands of dollars owing to the
carelessnes, or worse, on the part of car
riers who fail to collect on overweight mail
matter The department Is determined to
stop this little leak, if possible, and Brophy
being the first who has been caught play
ing favorites with the patrons of the office
make an example of him, and he was ac-
cOrdingly dismissed.

resented to him the dangerous temper of
Ine populace, saying that the people were
becoming more and more excited and that
something must be done if serious trouble
was to be avoided. After to-day's session
the maJority's parliamentary committee met
and resolved to defer planning it's course
until the government communicated its in
tentions to the House.
Throughout the evening the police were
Obliged repeatedly to diSperSe the political
crowds which gathered in the Reichstrasse
between the Parliament houses and the uni
versity buildings. In front of the former
crowd numbering two thousand, principally
composed of students, assembled and hooted
and groaned at the police, finally attacking
the officers with stones. Eventually the po-
lice were ordered TO clear the streets, which
they did with drawn swords
AT Gratz, the capital of Styria, band of
parade the streets. but were prevented by
the police from carrying out their intention
and compelled to disperse. Later in the
evening a riotous crowd of Workmen as
sembled in the business quarter of the town
and began to break windows and commit
other excesses. -Four companies of infan-
try and a squadron of cavalry were sum-
moned to the scene of the distur Dances.
Upon their arrival the infantry were as
sailed with shower of stones and were
compelled to fire upon the mob, killing one
and wounding five of the rioters. Of the
injured four are suffering from bayonet
thrusts. Several police officers also were
hurt. The disorder continued until shortly
before midnight, when the streets were
cleared and a military patrol of the town
was eStaDllSneu.
Later reports from Gratz say that two
civilians were killed and two others serious
ly wounded in an encounter between the
soldiers and the mob in which the infantry
charged the mob with fixed bayonets.
Emperor Francis Joseph arrived here to-
day and conferred with Count Badeni, the
premier, and Count GOluchowski, the Aus
tro-Hungarian minister for foreign affairs.
