ELECTIONS IN OHIO.
Mayor McKisson of Cleveland Defeated
lie Opposed Hanna

Cincinnati, O., April 3--Elections
and township officers While the local
issues usually control these spring
elections there was other influences in
some places to-day. At Cleveland, John
II. Farley, democrat, was elected may
or over Robert McKisson, republican,
the incumbent, to-day, by a plurality
of about $500. The remainder of the
republican ticket will have substantial
pluralities. The republicans will con-
troll the city council. McKisson's defeat
was due to the DETECTION of republicans
who voted against him because Of his
bolt from Senator Hanna and his party
during the contest before the legislature
a year ago last winter. The whole tick
ct suffered somewhat on account of the
opposition to McKisson, but not enough
to defeat any of the other candidates.
The election was orderly in most re-
spects The vote was very heavy.
At Toledo, Mayor s. NJ Jones' who
vino was candidate on an Independent
ticket with a platform of municipal
ownership of utilities, has been elected
by at least 5000 plurality and probably
majority over all. The contest was
marked by great spirit. The count is
slow, but returns seem to show that the
regular republican ticket, except for
mayor, has been elected by close vote.
At Columbus, a republican mayor
was elected for the first time in twelve
years, and at Cincinnati the republi-
cans have a plurality of 1000 The
present democratic mayor was elected
two years ago by almost as large a plu-
rality. At Dayton the democrats made 4,
gains, but the republicans |
gained in townships The western re-
serve maintains It's usual republican |
with some gains over those |
of former April elections. In the small !
er cities, as well as In rural districts,
the republicans claim some gains AS |

New York, April 3-At the Greenwood

Chicago in seven rounds. The men were
scheduled to box twenty-five rounds at
1876 pounds. When they weighed in in
the afternoon at o'clock Sullivan
turned the scales at the limit and the
other weighed 1856 pounds. The moment
the men stepped into the ring they got
together Kerwin let his arms fly with
out any attempt at science. This puz-
zled Spike a good deal, who tried to
bore into Kerwins body with both
hands and succeeded in landing several
times with good effect, while Kerwin
landed wild swings occasionally on the
head and neck. The pace told on Ker-
win in the following rounds, as he was
not in such good condition as Sullivan
Kerwin was almost knocked out in the
sixth round, the bell alone saving him.

Sullivan forced his opponent to the ropes

REASON FOR MANHA1TAN,s RISE.
A Traffic Agreement with Third Ave
System Officially Announced.

New York, April 3.-The reason for
the recent advances In Manhattan rail-
way stock was made clear to-day when
formal announcement was made or
traffic agreement between that road
and the Third Avenue railway SYSTEM
whereby both lines will in future carry
passengers up and down town on either
the surface or elevated systems and
give cross town transfers on all sur
face lines of the Third avenue COM
pany for the fare of eight cents. Ele-
waited passengers will in the future be
able to purchase tickets on the Second,
Third, Sixth and Ninth avenue elevat-
ed systems for eight cents which will
enttle them to ride to any street on
which the surface cars on the Third
avenue company cross town, after which
they can leave the elevated train and
ride in the surface cars without pay
ing another fare. The arrangement
means a reduction of two cents from
the old fare and transfer facilities on
the Huckleberry, One Hundred and
Twenty-ninth street, One Hundred and
IWenly-F olAly- olIeCI "
Ninth avenue and the Boulevard, For
ty-Second street and the East Broad
way lines.
President Gould of the Manhattan
company said: IT regard the agreement
made to-day as one that will add great
ly to the capacity Of the elevated sys-
tenn to serve the public and also large
ly increase our business. We do not
only practically extend the elevated
system to Yonkers and New Rochelle,
but by crosstown lines we secure direct
connection with the Pennsylvania rail-
road at Desbrosses and Courtland
streets as well as other important fer
ries on the east and west Sides This
is one of the changes that we intend to
work out by degrees In connection with
the change of motive power, and the
enlargement and Improvement of the
elevated roads. He are also at work on
the question of joint power houses and
even closer consolidation of the two

ing a venGers stand in the street. A
crusade has been started against the
street venders who make stands at the

follow
Grace Deviney whose husband COM
mitted suicide on Wallace street about
three weeks ago, was arrested yesterday
afternoon at Savin Rock by Patromen
Dunlap and Heenan on the charge of

stamford.

Stamford, Conn, April 3--The repub-
lican ticket was all elected with the ex-
ception of city clerk at the election held
here to-day. Republican councilmen
were elected also in three of the four
wards. Last year the entire democratic
ticket was elected with the exception
of the councilmen in one ward. A split
in the republican ranks caused the vote
for the mayoralty candidate to fall off
heavily and his election was due to the
fact that many Of the silver democrats
scratched the party's nominee as he
represented the gold wing of the party.
Edward j. Tupper, who was elected
mayor had but 45 majority over Rob-
ert A. Fosdick his democratic rival,
while the average republican majority
for the other officials was in the neigh
borhood of 300 There was a very
light vote polled owing to dissatisfac-
ton on both sides at the nominees. I'm
der an act amending the city charter,
signed by Governor Lounsbury last
week, the newly elected officials will
take office next Monday. This legis-
lates out of office members of the city
government who were elected last May
to serve one year, and the constitution
atty Of the act will be contested.

WOMdN HELD UP IN D4NBURY.
Wife of DR.. j. G. WhnIey Attacked by
Two Unknown Men

Danbury, April 3.-Mrs. J. c. Whaley,
wife of DR.. Whaley residing on Elm
street, was the victim of one of the
boldest attempts at highway robbery
that has occurred in this city for years.
The affair, however, proved unsuccess-
full. The would-be robbers managed to
escape arrest. The affair took place
about S:20 this evening as Mrs. Whaley
was returning from visit downtown
and she was about to enter her yard
when attacked. The scene Of the at
tempted robbery was scarcely more than
a stones throw from the business por-
tlon of the city. Mrs. Whaley was ap-
preached from behind by man she de-
scribes as having gray whiskers and ap-
parently about sixty years of age, who
threw his arms around her neck and
held her in that position while young
er companion attempted to rifle her
pockets. Her screams attracted the at
tention of some men and Walter Cox,
who was the first to reach the scene
tried to seize the older man, but he re-
ceived a blow in the face from the
young man which felled him. The
woud-be highwaymen then fed. The
men were strangers and it is believed
were tramps. The police have a good
description of them and it is expected
that they will be arrested.

LAST NIGHTS FIRE.
5000 Loss In DR.. f. j. Brothers, Dem
inl PnrIOrA.

The fire at $3.50 last night was in the
dental parlors of Dr. F. j. Brothers, at
701 Chapel street. 1t originated in a
very mysterious manner in the operat-
ing room, and before it was extinguish-
ed it had caused a loss of about 5000;
partially covered by insurance. The
doctor carried policy for $500. He
and two friends had been in the room
only very short time before the fire
was discovered by a woman who lives
on the floor above. The smoke quickly
filled the Railways Of the building and
caused several Of the occupants to be
very badly frightened The fire seemed
to originate alongside of roll-top desk
that occupied one corner of the operat-
ing room. This desk and contents were
entirely destroyed, as was also a re-
volving bookcase which stood quite
close. In this bookcase We're a full set
of the Encyclopaedia and several other
valuable books. An instrument case
fastened on the wall was badly burned,
but some of the instruments were saved
The operating chair was not damaged
except by smoke. The fire had followed
UP through lHe partitions ana was Hldh-
ing its way to the upper stories of the
building when the flremen arrived.
They made quick work if it and doubt
less prevented what might have been
very expensive fire. Fireman George
Barrows of Truck 1 had his left wrist
cut open, but the wound was not seri-
Gus. An immense crowd was attracted
to the scene. The alarm was turned in
from box 26.
The fire broke out again about one
clock this morning, having evidently
smoldered in the partition. Another
alarm was sent from box 26 and the Sec
ond blaze was extinguished before much
additional damage was done.

held in Utah for twenty-five years. He
is making his present trip, as chairman
of committee representing the Evan
gelical churches of Utah. who are try
ing to prevent the admission to the
next house of representatives Of Brig
ham Fl. Roberts. In the course of his
address DR.. Tiff said: "If Brigham H.
Roberts is permitted to sit in congress,
it will be interpreted in every Mormon
hamlet as the fulflment of Brigham
Young's prophecy and also as national
izing polygamy. l do not say you will
so interpret it, but the Mormons will,
and they will redouble their energies.
Already they may be said to hold the
balance of power in Idaho and Wyo-
ming, and they are very strong in Ne"
vada, Arizona and in southwestern Col
orado. The other day the wife of a
senator from a state adjoining Utah,
herself a Methodist, was asked to use
her influence on behalf of our crusade
She replied that she could not do any
thing about the matter. That shows
the Mormon influence in politics. We
ask that congress shall expel Roberts.
(Applause), We at first petitioned that
he be not received, but after comforting
with Senator Edmonds we think that
the proper procedure is to expel him.

TRIAL OF NANCY GUILFORD.
The Prosecution Offers an Important
Letter as Evidence.

marks the ninth day in the trial of "Dr."
Nancy A. Guilford for murder in the
second degree for the alleged murder Of
criminal treatment, likewise ushers in
the third week of the famous trial. 1t is
believed, however, that to-day's proceed
ings mark THE beginning of the end
as far as the prosecution is concerned
as there is little doubt but before court
adjourns tomorrow the state will have
presented all it's direct evidence. The
defense, however, promise to occupy all
Of this week and the one following in
presenting their side of the case, so that
the proceedings are to be assuredly long
drawn out
Walter l. Kingsley, an expert of Chi
Biography, and an inspector of forged
notes and signatures, who was a wit
ness in the famous Adams poisoning
case, was one of the witnesses to-day.
The purpose of the state was to show
by this witness that certain letter ad-
dressed to Emma Gill and received by
her without signature was written by
Mrs. Guilford. When this Is done to
the satisfaction Of the jury the letter

which he arrived at the conclusion that

the two bank deposit books. The wit
ness was also shown a telegram which
had previously been identified as one
sent by Mrs. Guilford to Harry Oxley,
while the latter was in Boston. Mr..

as that on the letter in question and the
two signatures on the bank books. Dur

timony to-day was in married. contrast
to the sensational features that have de-
veloped from day to day during the
trial.
The jury was excused at 4:45 and
State Attorney Fessenden then made a
brief address to the court He stated
that he had in his possession letter
that was delivered to the Bridgeport
police at Stratford on September 27. 1t
had been received in Stratford on Sep
tember and was addressed to Emma
Gill. This letter the state attorney said
he thought ought to be used in evidence
and he wanted the court to pass on
whether or not 1t would be admissible.
He said that he did not want the de-
fense to know its contents unless it was
necessary and suggested that
Judge Wheeler take 1t and read it if
such action would be within the law,
and decide if it was admissible as evil
dence. The defense objected strongly to
any such action and claimed the right
to see the letter. Judge Wheeler ruled
that he would not take the latter and
that the defense ought to have the priv-
ege of seeing 1t, The letter was then
turned over to the defense and the ques-
tion of its admissibilty will probably
be argued tomorrow morning.
