STRUCK BY A CAR.
Mrs. Mary Hurl-
but Seriously
Injured.
NEVER REALIZED HER DANGER.
Many Witnessed Accident
But Exact Cause Seems
to Be Unknown.
NEVER REALIZED HER DANGER.

Mrs. Mary Hurlbut, wife of Charles
E. Hurlbut. of 56 wellington street,
was struck by car 165 of the CONSOLE
dated street railway on Main street
near Hermon, yesterday afternoon at
$50 o'clock and is probably seriously
injured
She was taken to the city hospital in
the police ambulance and it was
thought last night that she suffered
from internal injuries, her condition not
warranting an examination.
The exact cause of the accident
seems to be unknown, although every
one who witnessed it thinks that Mrs.
Hurlbut must have for a moment got
excited and rushed IN front of the car
without noticing that another car was
coming from the opposite direction.
Previous to the accident Mrs Hurl-
but was standing in front of the Aetna
on Main street directly opposite Her
mon, and as car 165, in charge of Con-
ductor James Sullivan and Motorman
George Gilman left Jackson street,
where they stopped to allow a passen-
ger to get off, she walked out into the
street anu SlOppSQ q Lew 1CTA AlO4il liz
curb evidently to wait for the car to
come along, which she intended to
board.
AS the car drew near she stepped
upon the nearest track and tried to
cross in front of car 1875. Car 1856 bound
for New Worcester came along on the
other track, and as both motormen saw
the woman standing in between the
two tracks they tried to stop their cars
but failed to do so, and car 165 struck
the woman and threw ner against the
other car, which by this time had been
stopped All passengers on board shud-
dered and some feared to look expect
ing that the woman had been mangled
beneath the wheels. Conductor Sullivan
jumped to the ground and found the
woman lying beside the footboard on
car 1856 and he with the assistance of his
motorman and Conductor Brewer took
her to the janitor's office in the Ward
well. where the police team was called
and the woman taken to the city hos
pital.
1t seems to be a miracle to the rail-
road men that Mrs. Hurlbut was not
caught beneath the wheels and cut to
pieces. At the city hospital 1t was found
on examination that she had severe
scalp wound and in addition several
bruises on her body. She was conscious
last night but did not know anything
of the accident or how 1t happened. ana
from this the doctors are of the opinion
that she never for an instant realized
the danger until struck by the car

cubans viii Not Give Up Arms for Pay.
Havana. May 27.-seven Cubans
were paid $75 each as a result of the
first days distribution Of the money
allotted by the United States for the
payment of the Cuban soldiers. It is
too early to predict what will be done
in other cities and in the interior, but
the indications are that the money will
not be asked for to any extent. Arms

The anh-Gomez and anti-American
elements are cheerful tonight think

not regard today as settling the ques-

privates in this city and number Of
officers have had sufficient influence to
intimidate some who were otherwise
willing to accept the American terms,
but deterrent results are expected in
the country districts.

hoped they would not win as he wanted

good health and spirits. The race was

DREYFUs REVISION.
Believed Prisoner of DEVILS Isle wiIsGet New
COurt-martial.


cOurt-martiaI.
Paris, May 27.-Early this afternoon
it was rumored that the president of
the civil section of the court of cassa-
ton, M. Ballot de Beaupre, had report
ed to the president of the court of cas-
sation, NJ. Mazeau, in favor of a revi-
sion Of the Dreyfus trial, and resembling
the prisoner before a court-martial.
This later in the day was confirmed
by direct statement that the presi-
dent of the civil section had so report
ed to the president of the court of cas-
sation.
It is believed that the report is prac-
tically certain to be accepted by the
court of cessation and means that
Dreyfus will be brought back to France
and retired.
From the president of the court of
cessation the Dreyfus report win pass
into the hands of the procurer general,
NJ Mageau.
The proceedings in the case tomor-
row viii be public, although The great
er part of the court room has been re-
served for ticket holders. The proceed
ure will consist of the reading of the
report of M. Ballot de Beaupre, fol-
lowed by a speech by Maitre Mornard,
counsel for Madame Dreyflis, and tho

CANADA'S CLAIM,
Unreasonable De

bitration.
HISTORY OF THE CASE.
Wanted Pyramid Harbor
Wanted Pyramid Harbor
Irrespective of Tri-
bunars Decision.

Washington, May 27-To clear up
misunderstanding which apparently
exist in London, and to some degree
In this country as to the exact status
of the negotiations between the United
States and Great Britain respecting Ca
nadian-American issues, the following
statement Of the events that led up to
the rpresent conditions was secured
from the best of authority:
When the commission adjourned
some months ago, it was because it
had reached an apparently insurmount-
able obstacle in the shape Of the Alas
kan boundary question. After the ad-
Sournment the two governments took
up this particular question with view
to settling it, and thus removing it
from the path Of many other important
issues involved. There were numerous
delays owing to the need of exchanging
views between London, Washington
ana Ottawa, and the authorities here
became convinced that an adjustment
was hopeless, But the feeling in Lon
don was more hopeful, and when Sir
Julian Paunoefote reached London on
ference with Lord Salisbury which re-
suited in definite proposal for set
Ting the boundary issue, and removing
1t as an obstacle to the work of the
commission.
The main point of this proposal was
that a separate tribunal of arbitration
should pass on the boundary question.
1t was communicated to Ambassador
Choate, and by him to the state depart
ment,
When the plan was received the pres
ident was absent at Hot Springs, Va ,
and 1t was felt desirable to await his
return before giving a final answer.
There was little or no doubt that the
answer would have been favorable.
Just as the acceptance was about to
be given, the officials here were snr-
prised to have presented what they re-
garded as an extraordinary condition
which Canada imposed in connection
with the submission of the question to
arbitration. This condition was that,
In any event, Canada. should have Ply
ramid harbor and a strip Of territory
on the Lynn canal without reference
to the general conclusions reached by
the tribunal of arbitration.
This condition coming after the ar
bitration plan had been formally pro-
posed and was about to be accepted,
caused not only surprise but some de-
gree of Indignation among the off,
cials here. After canvassing the stu
alton, the view prevailed that Canada
wanted arbitration which would ensure
a favorable decision on her side, or else
if the decision was unfavorable would
give her rights in Pyramid harbor and
on the Lynn canal contrary to the gen
eral decision of the arbitration. 1t
was decided not to accept this condi-
of sa1 civ
en- to the proposition. There is every
reason to believe that there viii be no
yielding of the officials here to Cana
da's condition.

MAY TAKE TWO WEEKS.
Doubtful If the Legislature Will Adjourn Mex
Week.

Boston, May 27.-Both branches held
short sessions this morning, the House
meeting mainly in order to adjourn over
to Wednesday, while the Senate went
through it's calendar dutifully, but had
but little debate on any of the mea-
sures. The Cape Cod canal bill was pas
sed to be enacted, as was the bill ex
empting fraternal beneficiary organiza-
tions from certain of the state insur-
ance laws.
A bill for a 5 per cent tax upon all
legacies and SUGGESTIONS. the proceeds
to be used for the support of the public
schools. is now before the Senate ways
and means committee, the House hav-
ing passed it this week. 1t is understood
that the committee will ask to be dis
charged from further consideration OF
the matter and 1t will come before the
Senate without any recommendation
from the committee.
The impression prevails about the
state house that Gov. Wolcott will veto
the bill exempting the veterans OF the
Spanish war from the civil service reg
ulation. -,

dent Smith of the senate will be can

that case the chances of the several
senators named as his successor in the
presiding officers chair will be minus;
Senator Washburn Of Worcester had
as good an inside track on the posi-
ton as anyone and in fact his chances
were considered a little the best by
those who profess to know the inside
of the situation.
IT is among the possibilities that the
legislature viii be prorogued next
week. but it is by no means as strong
a probability as some of the Leaders
would like to have it. 1t is up to the
senate now and unless that august
body moves faster than it has this
week on public business, hope of an
adjournment next week Will be fruit
49, The house has about completed
its business and is now waiting upon
The pleasure of the upper branch. That
body is yet struggling with a fair sized
calendar and with no session until
Wednesday it is difficult to see how it
can close up before Saturday.

POLICE HAVE A cLEw.
Believe They Have Kidnapper of Little Marion
Clarke.

New York. May 81. = The police are
searching for Carrie Wilkinson. who was
discharged from the Mothers and Babies
Hospital with newborn baby on Aug
ust Is. 1897. It is believed that she is the
nurse girl who stole the child. Marion
Clarke. 1t is known that she took the
name of Carrie Jones after leaving the
hospital.
The baby died Sept. II following About
three months ago the mother went to the
Vanderbilt clinic for treatment where her
record was known. She had been brood
ing over the death of the child. and her
sanity was then doubted. Her descrip-
ton answers closely TO that of the Carrie
Jones for whom the police are searching.
The theory is that the loss of her own
child upset her reason. and she took the
Clarke baby. who was as old as her own
would have been had 1t lived.
