CROKER MAKES 4 STATEMENT.
Says That Frank Moss is Owned Body
and Soul.

New York, Sept 17.-In reply to the
charge made by Frank Moss before the
Mazet committee that Richard Croker
| had been offered and had refused an
| opportunity to denounce the 5000 000, 600
Ramapo corporation, Mr. Croker to-
| night made the following statement:
Nobody knows more about that Ram
apo deal than does Frank Moss MINI
self. and his associate counsel. j. Proc
tor Clark, who is helping Moss to make
a report of the MaZet committee doings
to Platt's law firm, Tracy, Boardman &
Platt. l will not make my report to
that firm | will make it to the people
instead. This man Moss is owned body
and soul by Platt and his law firm.
Everybody knows that
Tracy, Boardman e Platt put the
Ramapo bill through the legislature.
1T never could have passed the assem-
bly, and senate of 1895 had not Platt
ordered it passed. Very soon after the
bill became a law General Benjamin F.
Tracy, Platts candidate for mayor in
1897, became president of the Ramapo
company. I have repeatedly said since
returning from my vacation that |
I'll | came back to the city. / do not
stand for it, and the Tammany hall or
ganization does not stand for it.
IF Mr.. Moss is really sincere and
wants to aid legislation by making an
honest inquiry into the affairs of the
city of New York. let him put his
dummy Mazet on the stand and, under
OATH compel him to reveal who was be-
yond the Astoria Gas steal at the last
session. Let Moss also ask Mazet who
was behind the bill to refund city as
sessments last year, bill which was
passed in the assembly but was killed
in the senate and which, had it be-
come a law, would have cost the people
millions of dollars. / defy Mr.. Moss
to examine Mr.. Mazet on these points.
Also let Mr.. Moss ask whether the so-
called constabulary, but which demo-
Gratis defeated, was not introduced to
benefit a certain bond company and
compel list of state officers to pay
thousands of dollars to that company
to go on their bonds"

s.ToO Late.S

London, Sept. 1S.-All the dispatches
from South Africa this morning talk
of the imminence of hosulities and the
preparations for them. In Johannes
burg it seems to be taken for granted
that the Orange Free State has approv-
ed of President Krugers note and
promised active assistance in the event
Of war An official telegram posted at
Volksrust says that the Transvaal
with the assent of the Orange Free
State repudiated British suzerainty and
adhere to the seven years franchise.
AT Cape Town it is said that Mr. Mr.
Hoffmeyer, the Afrikander leader sent
q communication to President Steyne
of the Orange Free state entreatng
him to do his utmost to preserve peace,
but that he received in answer the
words 'Too late" All military men
agree that it Is out of the question to
begin hostile operations before the
middle of next month no rain having
fallen and the Veldt being still bare.

DREYFUS MISS MEETING.


London, Sept. 17--Although the
talked of demonstration in Hyde Park,
London, against the verdict of the
French court-martial condemning Cap
tain Dreyfus on the charge of treason
proved a spiritless affair, A few thou
sands collected around the seven plat
forms, but they were mainly boys, SER
wants and idlers. Very few Jews or
foreigners were in evidence. The police
had nothing to do as a demonstration
could not possibly be more orderly. The
speakers We're in no way influential.
Most of the interest centred around the
platform. where Mr.. Hatfield. rela
tive of Dreyfus. delivered an address.
The speakers deprecated boycotting
whole nation "for the sake of five
judges and a scoundrei." At the va
rious platforms resolutions were adopt
ed expressing sympathy with Nine.
Dreyfus and abhorrence for the gener-
ais who figured at the trial, rendering
congratulations to Zola, Colonel Poe
quart, NM. Labori and Demange and
others, and appealing to France to re-
lease and rehabilitate Dreyfus before
it should be too late These We're car
ried with the greatest enthusiasm. Va
rlous flags We're displayed, including the
Stars and Stripes and the tri-color of
France. A French lady was removed
for continually crying "Vive L'Armee"
and man was elected for shouting
"Vive MERCER"

CHICKEN THIEVES UGHT.
Three We're Raiding Hem Roost When
a POLICEMAN Appeared.


Dennis Dwyer, who lives on Wallace
street near State, has lost number of
chickens lately from the depredatfons
Of chicken thieves, and has complained
to the police about the raids on his hen
roost. Saturday morning about o'clock
Patrolman Michael Enright while pa
trolling his beat saw three men go to
the rear Of Dwyer's yard. Following
them stealthily he saw them enter the
hen roost and soon they returned, one
of them carrying chicken. Enright
started towards them and they, seeing
him, started to run. The policeman
gave chase and they separated. En-
right followed one of them and after
chasing him five blocks caught him on
State street and took him to the Grand
avenue police station, where he said his
name was Frank Dunn and that he
lived on Hamilton street. Yesterday at
ternoon Wardman Ward of the Grand
avenue precinct arrested William @.
Skelly, who lives at No. 1872 Hamilton
street and is believed to be one Of the
chcken-steal trio.

A BLOODY RIOT IN ILLINOIS
SIX NEGROES IRE INSTANTLY Y
KILLED At ARTERYILLE.
Whites and Blacks Governor Tanner
Immediately Orders Troops to the
PIace-Order to be Preserved Mt Any
Cost.

Carterville, ILL.,, Sept. 17-Carterville
was the scene of a bloody riot about
noon to-day in which six negroes were
instantly killed and one fatally wound
ed, while two others received slight
wounds. Trouble has been brewing
since the militia was recalled by Gov
ernor Tanner last Monday. The white
miners of this place have refused to al
| low the negro miners to come into town
always meeting them and ordering
them back. To-day, however, thirteen
negroes, all armed, marched into town
going to the Illinois Central depot,
where they exchanged a few words
with the white miners. Then the ne
sroes pulled their pistols and opened
fire on the white men, who at once re-
turned the fire. A running fire was
kept up. The negroes scattered some
being closely followed by the whites up
the main street, while the remainder
fled down the railroad track After the
fight was over six dead bodies were
picked up and another man was found
moltally wounded. The killed are: Rev.
T. j. Floyd, Huse Bradley, John Black,
jim Hayes, Henry Branum, one uni
Identified, The mortally wounded, Sim
Cummins.
Trouble has existed here off and on
for over year, but no fatalities occur
red until June 30 when a passenger
train on the Illinois Central road was
fired into and one negro woman killed.
These negroes were on their way to the
mines, having come from Pana. A short
time afterwards pitched battle ensued
between the union and non-union forces,
during which time the dwellings occu-
pied by the non-union negroes We're
burned. Several arrests were made and
the accused are in Jail at Marion await
ing trial on the charge of murder. Su-
perintendent Donnelly of the Brush
mines, where the negroes reside, reports
that the negroes are worked into a
frenzy, and that. while he is doing all
in his power to hold them In check, he
is afraid that he cannot do so much
longer. Company G, Fourth regiment,
/. n, c., arrived here tonight and will
endeavor to preserve order. Forty min
ers from the Herrin mines are reported
to have left that place for this city,
armed with -Jorgensen rifles, and
determined to assist the white miners
here.

TR1NST1AL'S NEXT MOVE.
Belief In London That She VIII Appeal
to the Powers

London, Sept. 1S.-It is supposed that
the next move contemplated by the
Transvaal is an appeal to the powers to
recommend arbitration on the lines of
the conference at The Hague. A des-
patch from Cape Town says the Wild
est rumors are current there and that
great alarm is felt owing to the unpro-
tected state of the town, especially as
Boer signalling is plainly visible on the
adjacent mountains. There was a Sc
rious disturbance in the Market Square
of Johannesburg on Saturday after
noon. A meeting called by labor agi
tator. named Balm, to condemn the
British policy and to enroll volunteers
to fight for the Beers led to serious
fights with the police, lasting a couple
of hours. Many persons were injured,
among them the recently notorious DR..
Matthews, who laid a charge against a
mounted policeman. An immense crowd
singing "Rule Britannia" accompanied
him to the police office.

4 FlLSE BURRGL4R ALARM,


The Sunday night quietude at police
headquarters was disturbed about $50
last evening by young man who came
in in a hurry and told Sergeant Cook
that some men were trying to break
into Cohen's saloon on Court street,
near Music hail. The young man said
that one man had entered the door
of the saloon while two others were
walking along in front and keeping
watch. Sergeant Cook at once put UP
red light police signals in the vicinity
of the saloon, the nearest lights being
at the corner of State and Chapel
streets and at the corner Of Church and
Chapel streets. Patrolman Coonan. T.
Doughan and Moore responded at once
to the red lights and answering over
the police signal telephone were told
of the alarm. They hastened over to
Court street and were on the scene of
the reported burglary within three
minutes after the alarm had been Civ
en- at police headquarters. They sur
rounded the place, two patrolmen in
the rear and one in front and on max
ing an investigation found that the
burglar was the proprietor of
the place, who had entered the saloon
to light gaslight to leave burning over
night so that the policemen could see
the interior of the place from the side
walk. While the alarm turned out to
be fake one, 1t demonstrated two in
terestng facts. One is that the police
signal system is good one and the
other is that the police service is
good. and members of the force at
tentive to duty and vigilant.

raising gave a national and patriotic
phase to this extensive undertaking.

view of the university grounds. A
special branch of the Franciscan Or

tire attention to the preservation and
protection of the tomb of the Savior,
the stables of Bethlehem and other sac
red relics of the life of Christ. AS
many Americans are joining the pill
grimmages to the Holy relics it has
been deemed advisable to establish in
this country a college which will pre-
pare those who will carry forward the
work Of preservation. To this end a
commissariat of the Holy Land for the
United States was located in New York
in 1880 and out of this has grown the
magnificent structure dedicated to-day,
with it's subterranean reproductions of
the stable at Bethlehem, the home of
the Holy family of Nazareth, the Holy
sepulchre and other monuments of
Palestine.
These have been executed under the

DenOunCes an Interview as False-Can-
not Believe In Chicago Platform.
London, Sept. 17.--Perry Belmont ar
rived in London this evening from Par
is, not having been in England since
July nor having seen reporter while in
Europe What purported to be an in
terview with him, sent from London to
the United States on September 8, was
the result Of an imposition on the part
of some one, who, from what appear to
have been interested motives, represent
ed himself to a reporter at Euston sta
ton, London, as being Mr.. Belmont and
expressed the views with regard to
American politics, as cabled. Mr.. Bel
mont this evening authorized the state
ment that he had no occasion to change
the views expressed to the Associated
Press on June II, on the eve of his sail
ing for Europe, and that he consistent
ly holds to his already published opin-
ions in regard to the financial doctrines
of w. j. Bryan and the Chicago plat.
form, which he will continue to oppose.
Mr. Bryan's views in regard to the cur
rency are such that Mr.. Belmont could
not support him. Mr.. and Mrs Bel
mont will sail for the United States
next Wednesday by the White Star line
steamer Teutonic.

COTERS NINE PAGES,
The Reply of the Iransvaal to the Las {
British Note.

London, Sept. 1S.-The reply of the
Transvaal government to Mr.. Chamber
lain's latest note is said to cover nine
pages. 1t is eminently of the mega
tive and inconclusive" character which
Mr.. Chamberlain declared would com
pei the imperial government to con-
slider the situation afresh. 1t practical
ly repudiates suzerainty, reverts to the
seven years franchise and declines to
give equality to the Dutch and Eng
lish languages in the Volksraad. In
short, it is politely negative and defiant.
The full text may not be available for
a day or two, but it will not change the
aspect of affairs The cabinet will
probably meet on Wednesday or Thurs
day to consider the next step.

LONDON P4PERS PESSI1IISTIC.
General Opinion That War With Trans
vaal Is Now Inevitable.

London, Sept. 1S.-The Morning Post
says: "The Beers mean to fight. That
is the plain English of it."
The Standard says THE Transvaal
note is unsatisfactory, and, indeed,
dangerous composition. 1t might be 60
ing too far to say that the last hope of
peace has vanished or that diplomacy
has said it's final word; but it is idle
to deny that the rulers Of the Transvaal
have brought their country very close
ia the brink Of q disaster which the
British government has done its best
to avert"
The Daily Mail says: President kru-
gers defiance has terminated a long
neriod of unrest and uncertainty in
South Africa for, whatever may be the
issue of the present situation, one thing
is certain-that "dualism in South Af-
rica will end forever"
The Daily Chronicle says: 1--WE re-
eret that the Beers, by rejecting a fair
offer made in fair language, have taken
q line giving fresh point to the argu-
ment of their enemies that President
Kruger is a shifty and impracticable
nolitician, fit only to be spoken to across
q line of bayonets." These extracts fair

| Springfield, ILL.,, Sept. 17.-Governor
| Tanner has ordered two companies of
the Fourth regiment under command
of Colonel Bennett, to Carterville. The
governor gave out the following state
! sage from captain Brush stating that
| the mob had attacked and killed the
| negro miners while waiting at the Illi-
nois Central depot for a train; that the
sheriff would be unable to control the
situation and was powerless to arrest
the parties asking me to order troops to
Carterville.
In response to this message, know
ing something of the condition of that
place and without waiting to hear from
the sheriff or others in authority, l Or
dered Lieutenant Lowden of Company
c of Carbondale to proceed at once to
Carterville, procuring a special train If
necessary, and when reaching Carter
vile to suppress the riot protect life
and property, but report to the sheriff
of Williamson county for orders in the
event that the sheriff was on the
ground.
II also ordered Captain Hersh of
Newton to proceed with his company
by the quickest route to Carterville. At
the same time I ordered Colonel Bennett
of the Fourth regiment, who lives at
Greenville, to proceed to Carterville at
once and take charge of the troops. +
