Thinks lie lia. Him.

New York. Dec. 30.-The World saws:
Captain George McClusky. chief of the
detective bureau. firmly believes that
he has solved the mystery surrounding
the attempt to. kill Harry Cornish. ply
sical instructor OF the Knickerbocker
Athletic club. by sending him poison
through the mails At y o'clock last
night Captain McClusky stated that
he would have the culprit in custody
within ~ hours. The name OF the gus
pected murderer IL withheld from pub
lication, lest its announcement should
defeat the ends OF justice. The man
under surveillance was formerly a men,
Der OF the knickerbocker Athletic club.
He was at one time a man OF high So
cial and financial standing in this city
but I'm late years through evil habits
and evil associations. his descent was
rapid.
From being unpopular in the athletic
club he latterly developed into a per-
son with whom the members OF the club
thought they could not associate
Things finally reached such a pass that
special meeting OF the club was call
ed To act upon his case and he was ig-
ANONYMOUSLY expelled. IL IL well known
that he from the first associated Mr..
Cornish with the revelation of facts
which led To this action. All who knew
the person I'm question find but one
word with which to characterize him
ne ls spoken OF by them as one Of the
worst type Of hopeless and malicious
degenerates. II Is said that he took the
action Of the club in expelling him with
bitter resentment. IL Is also said that
ne had concentrated this feeling upon
certain members OF the club. and con-
spicuous among them was Mr.. Cornish
With these general facts To guide them,
the police set out to find evidence that
would connect this person with the
deadly parcel which was delivered to
MIR. Cornish by the postman at the
knickerbocker Athletic club on Satur-
day. The first definite clue was the
tracing OF the little silver toothpick
holder which came with the parcel OF
poison from the manufacturer to a re-
tail dealer. This dealer. the police visit
ed, and from him obtained a minute
and detailed description OF the man
who purchased the silver article in
question. This description tailed with
almost Photographic exactness with the
appearance. clothing and general man.
nerisms of the man under suspicion by
Captain McClusky and his detectives
The chain of evidence is now said to be
almost complete and the arrest may be
made at any moment.

ADAMS POISONING CASE.
A Theory That Her Death Was an TN
fortunate Accident.

New York. Dec. 30.-There is hope the
silver-plated trinket received through
the mails by Harry Cornish may fur
nish clue TO the poisoners Of Mrs.
Kate l. Adams. IL has been learned the
article Is not a bottle holder, as sup
posed, but a toothpick holder. IL was
made by a firm at Newark. n. j.. and
not more than so similar articles were
placed on the market. There Is a num-
Der on the holder. IL being "si4." and
II was stated at the detective bureau
that the store where Il was sold had
been discovered. Beyond this the de-
tectives refused TO talk
Mr.. Mcintyre has received a letter to
which he attaches a certain amount Of
Importance. 1t suggests that the poison
that Killed Mrs. Adams must have de-
veloped from bromo seltzer i'm the pro-
cess Of decomposition.
This letter may shed light on this
mysterious affair" said he. 1T may
prove that Mrs. Adams death was an
unfortunate accident and that there Is
no crime back OF It,"
The letter In question was sent to Mr.
Mcintyre by ;. j. Russell. "A druggist
OF Jersey City. While reading the ac-
count of the Adams poisoning case
in the newspapers MIR. Russelrs atten-
tion was arrested by the statement
that the bottle containing the supposed
bromo seltzer bore a label Of a drug
company in Baltimore. Md. This re-
called to his mind an invoice Of bromo
seitzer which he had received from that
company. but which he had sent back
as unft for sale. He then received from
the company a letter saying the COM
pany had tried granulating bromo
seltzer but found that IL did not keep
well In that form and decided to aban-
don IL. The question raised by this let
ter Is whether the decomposition Of the
granulated bromo seltzer that was man
ufactured by the Baltimore company Is
likely To produce poisonous substance.
and III so. whether that substance is the
same poison which killed Mrs. Adams.

provisional ausgleich between Austria and
Hungary expires. an imperial decree

chamber OF the Hungarian diet to-day.
The national. peoples and independent
parties protested against the unconstitu-
tional conditions which they alleged
would prevail by reason OF the fact that
the provisional ausgleich will lapse to-
morrow.
Baron Banffy. the premier. attempted
TO speak. but the tumult was so deafen-
ing that he could not be heard and IL
was necessary to suspend the sitting
When business was resumed the members
OF the opposition gathered In the center
OF the floor and kept up an incessant up
roar After repeated vain efforts the
premier finally succeeded In speaking. and
he concluded his statements by declaring
that all responsibility for the situation
rested upon those who had persistenty
