WH|SKEY OR POISON 2
James Sweeney of Carroll Found
Dead.
A Wal OF CARBOLlC ACID
Coroner's Jury Unable to Determine
Whether Death Was Due to the
Excessive Use Of Liquor or o
q Dose OF Poison.

James Sweeney OF Carroll Is dead. He
either committed suicide or died from
the effects OF excessive indulgence in
alcoholic stimulants. The opinion Is
that he died from the effects OF a dose
OF carbolic acid administered by his
own hand This theory Is based on the
fact that a via two-thirds full OF he
poison was found in his room at the
Flood house.
Sweeney had been on a spree for
about two understanding heavily.
About $3.50 yesterday morning a cham
bermaid at the Flood house. while at
work on the fool where Sweeney's
room was located. saw Sweeney come
staggering m Keeling out OF his room
n down the hall. He proceeded for a
short distance and then fell heavily to
the floor. The girl asked another lodger
to pick him up and place him in his
room again. This dodgers name is
Poynter. Mr.. Poynter found that he
was unable to comply with the girls
request unassisted, SC he called Mr..
picked Sweeney up n carried him
back to his room. Ten minutes later
he was found dead.
Coroner Hardenbrook was notified
and after viewing the body ordered II

yesterday morning the two gentlemen

hall and a half hour later he was noti-
fed that Sweeney vas dead. The wit
ness had seen a bottle of carbolic acid
in the room, also a number of whiskey
bottles and beer bottles. About one

out OF the bottle. He had never seen

getting drunk about once n month. on
payday. He was a quiet man n never
talked very much.
The jury returned a verdict that
death was due to unknown causes. The
jurymen were evidently in doubt
whether Sweeney died from the effects
of drink or from carbolic acid poison.
SO far as is know there are no symp-
toms that Sweeney took poison. II he
a taken some of the acid. 1t Is more
than likely that his throat and mouth
would have been burned. but no such
burns were discovered. The jury I'm the
case was composed Of the following
gentlemen: IL. Redmond. +. p. Win
chell, w. c. Haynes. James Smith.
Thomas Boland and II. ID. Crosswhite.
Sweeney was about IS years old and
had resided In Anaconda n Carroll
for sig or eight years. He was en-
ployed at the converters. Nothing
could be learned concerning any rela-
tives he might ave had.

FEMALES CUNNING or FENCE.

Chance That DueIs Between Women May
Re Revived I'm France.
Fencing has become such a fad
among Parisiennes hat no n need
be surprised IL one of these days We
hear Of a fair duelist having been pink
ed in the French capital. Indeed, a few
weeks ago two actresses arranged a
meeting, but were persuaded by mutual
friends to settle their quarrel without
the arbitrament Of the sword, much
to the regret Of sensation loving news
paper writer's. In the days of h re-
gency bona d duels between women
were by 10 means uncommon. and a
revival Of such encounters Is looked for
should the fencing fad be kept up.
Many French women are expert fenc-
ers and in London the fad has been
encouraged by the SWEETEST set. A
really swagger feminine duel would be
a new sensation in society. 1t would
be romantic and becoming. for moth
ing shows OF the figure to such advan-
tage al fencing. Then. the possibilities
in dueling costumes are most enticing.
The results need be no o serious
than in modern honorable encounters
between French deputies. and the af-
fairs would be chic and picturesque
in the extreme. But in the feminine
duel the audience must not be limited
to seconds and physicians. One should
make a social function OF 1t and re-
lieve the tedium Of afternoon teas and
receptions. There would be but one
objection to the new fad. Its advertising
possibilities are so superb that he

VIOLATION OF CONSTITUTION
In Louisiana By Excluding Negroes From
 Jury Duty.

Washington, Feb. 1.-The senate today received from the attorney general, a re- ply to a resolution requesting information as to whether the records of the depart ment show that in Louisiana there have been recent violations of the constitution of the United States by exclusion from service on juries in the United States courts of duly qualified citizens on ac- count of color, and if so, what action has been taken or is in contemplation.
 In response Attorney General Griggs sends copy of a protest of Louisiana citizens against violations of the consti- tuition by the acting circuit judge and the district attorney of the United States for the eastern district of Louisiana. The protest has been forwarded by the de- pertinent to the judge and attorney named but no reply has yet been received.

TWO BIG ROADS COMBINED Lake Shore Absorbs New York
 Central. VANDERBILTS IN MAJORITY They Own the Controlling interest of Stock New Company Authorizes Bond Is-
 sue of One Million Dollars.
VAN NDERBILTS IN MAJORITY

New York, Feb. 1.-The Lake Shore rail- road today became the property of the New York Central and Hudson River Rail- road company. The final arrangements for the transfer of the Lake Shore system to the control of the Central were concluded this morning when the directors of the Central met here to consider the proposi- tion made some time ago for a union of the two roads into one system to be operated hereafter as one road stretching from New York to Chicago.
 Chauncey M. Depew, the president of the Central, presided and represented the Van derbih interests in both the Lake Shore and the Central. Francis Lynde Stetson was there as a representative of the Nor gan interests. There was full and free discussion of the plan proposed to unite under one management the two roads, and the result was that the directors voted without dissent to take over the Lake Shore. In accordance with their plans the Central directors authorized an issue of $100000,O00 of 100 year 3h per cent collateral gold bonds. Each $10O bond is to be given in exchange for five shares of Lake Shore stock. The operation, which this an- nouncement brings on. involves the s49, 466,- 800 of Lake Shore stock outstanding. The Vanderbilt holdings constitute a considera- ble majority of the outstanding stock, so that their assent to take bonds for their shares essentially carried the operation with it.

WILL 60 FOR PEACEFUL PURSUITS

Minneapolis, Feb. IA special from Aber- deen, s. D., says: Jim Patterson of the Boston Block, Minneapolis, who is well- known throughout the northwest, has been in Aberdeen on a peculiar mission He is working quietly, but persistently upon a scheme to take 100000 men to Cuba and land them there on the 4th of July.
 He says he is backed by a syndicate of Americans, who have large landed inter- ests in the island, and claims these Ameri- cans are anxious to cut up their holdings and dispose of small plantations to able bodied men on long time and at a low rate of interest. They require no cash down and all the money the intended purchaser needs is enough to pay his expenses from here to Cuba. On account of the large number of people whom they intend to transport the travelling expenses will be nohinal MT. Patterson says excursion rares have already been arranged for and that there will be enough steamers at New Orleans on July to carry the 100000 ex- curionists to Havana and other ports on the island where they intend to land. The com- pany guarantees protection from Spanish interference from New Orleans to Cuba,

TIE ACQUISITION BUSINESS
Would Be a Poor One, Said Sen-
 ator White.
LABOR QUESTION HAULED IN
He Said Chinamen in Hawaii Received S5 Per Month Without Board-Sugar Trust Was
 Behind Annexation Movement.

Washington, Feb 4-Senator White con- to the annexation of Hawaii in the execu- tive session of the senate today. In the course of his addres he made some addi- tfonal points against the availability of Hawaii for defensive purposes, saying that is 500 miles from the outside islands of the group to other islands.
 This fact, he said, demonstrated that numerous points must be guarded from hostile assault and that a powerful navy would be required to accomplish this; that this immense expenditure will be without benefit to our defenses on the continent lie declared that as soon as Hawaii was acquired 1t would be contended that our domains could be extended to other islands and we womid finally embark upon the foreign acquisition business involving an outlay of hundreds of miltions of dollars.
 He then took up the question of labor contending that the Chinese and Japanese are receiving $5 per month without board. He ridiculed the pretensions that the An- glo-Saxon race could labor in Hawaiian sugar fields and demanded to know why if they could there was no such white labor on the islands now.
 He denied that there were any valuable agricultural probabilities to Justify annexa- tion, and declared again that the entire power behind the throne was the sugar combination of Hawaii, whose personal in- terests, he said, had always been consulted regardless of the effect upon the public.
 He criticised the action of President Dole in coming to Washington at such a time, and he asked what would have been the effect if the Prince of Wales had come here at the time the treaty of arbitration was under consideration for the purpose of in- fluencing our action.
 He reviewed at length the general poli- cies and theories of our government, de- clared that the question was above all politics and that it was a step which if taken could not add to our glory or in- crease our wealth, or be regarded as in accordance with our honesty.

FOLLOWING UP FRUIT DECREE

Penna Says It Is Time to Discover Bacillus in Wine, and the Sanitary Character of German Process of

Berlin, Feb 4.-Baron Won Hammedstein- Loxten, the minister of agriculture, at to- days session of the Prussian diet, declared that American horses developed influenza after importation. He added:
 If the importations increase we shall certainly be forced to adopt a suitable quarantine in order to protect ourselves. ,,
 Following It Up
 Washington, Feb. 4.-When the cable as to the prospective quarantine of American horses was shown to Chairman Hit, of the house foreign affairs committee, he said this move was clearly a part of the gem eral movement toward exclusion shown by the recent action against American fruit. His colleague on the foreign affairs com mfttee, MT.
