Molineux is Charged
With Murder.
COUNTS ARE FOUR.
The Prisoner viii Be Ar
raigned Today.

New York. March 1.-Roland B. Mo-
lineux was today indicted by the grand
jury for murder in the first degree in
causing the death of Mrs. Kate j.
Adams
Nothing was said in the Indictment
regarding the death of Henry c. Bar
net, the responsibility for whose death
has also been attributed to Molineux
by the district attorney.
The next development in the case is
likely to be the trial The Indictment
found today was secured despite the
strenuous efforts of counsel for Moli-
neux.
They made many attempts to have a
hearing Of the case before Coroner
Hart, the committing magistrate, but
were defeated at the instance of the
district attorneys Office. Had the
hearing before the coroner been held
prior to indictment, the state would
have been forced to disclose much Of
its evidence and to allow the defense
to introduce evidence in rebuttal. The
finding of the Indictment does away
with hearing before the coroner, and
there will be small chance for Moli-
neux's counsel to take any steps in his
behalf until the case actually comes to
trial
The district attorney is said to have
in his possession evidence that was not
offered at the inquest, but this is only
hearsay. The defense also has strong
evidence in rebuttal, and confidently
asserts that no conviction can be Sc
cured.
The Indictment contained four counts
first, that Roland p. Molineux sent
poison through the mails to kill, and
which did kill Mrs. Katherine J. Ad-
ans; second, that Molineux sent
through the mails poison for the pur-
pose of killing some unknown person.
Third-That Molineux sent through
the mails cyanide of mercury with in
tent to kill
Fourth-That Molineux sent an I'M
known poison to kill some unknown
person.
The case of Molineux was placed or
the calendar for pleading, and he will
be arraigned before Recorder Golf to-
morrow. He will then, probably, be re-
manded to the Tonbs without bail.

VESSEL WRECKED
Labrador Goes Ashore-No
Lives Lost.

Neville, March 1.-The British
steamer Labrador from st. John, Feb.
Is, by way of Halifax on Feb. 20, for
Liverpool, went ashore on Sberryvore
rock at o'clock this morning. The
place where the vessel went ashore is
off Tobermory, a town of Scotland, on
the northeast of the island of Hull.
The Labrador is a steel steamer Of
1896 tons net register, halls from L,v-
erpool and is owned by the Mississi .)pi
and Dominion Steamship Company,
limited. She was built at Belfast in
1891. She is 40 feet long.
Agoncillo, the representative of the
Filipino junta, who was a passenger,
was accompanied by a valet and pri-
vate secretary. They paid $146 only for
their passage, taking plain cabin ac-
commodations. They were located in
two staterooms near the saloon stair
case on the port side of the ship, not
on the upper deck. They would have no
difficulty in getting away. The I4abra-
dor was the commodore ship of the Do
minion line. The Labrador's fastest
time from Liverpool TO Halifax was
days 4 hours.

MRS. DlxoN's FRIENDS.
They Namate the story of Her Domestic
Troubles.

Boston, March 1.-The friends of Mrs.
Annie E. Dixon, wife of Rev. DR..
Joseph K. Dixon, in giving her side of
the controversy which has arisen in the
Warren avenue Baptist church because
of her domestic relations with her hus-
band, tell a different story from that
told by the pastors supporters.
Mrs. Dixon is SO years old, and mar
ried Dr. Dixon 10 years ago. Her trou-
BILE began during DIR. DiXon's passionate
in Scranton, Pa, several years ago.
There the wealthy widow of ex-Con-
gresham Lemuel Amerman, a member
of the congregation, became deeply in
terested in the Dixons and the church
The friendship between Dixon and
this lady has lasted ever since.
The Scranton church took action on
the matter, but eXonerated DR.. Dixon
Of charges of i'll doing. From Scranton
the Dixons went to Philadelphia, and
Mrs Dixon's friends say that Mrs.
Amerman went also. This was in 1885
There was an outburst there, but it
was smoothed over. Mrs. DiXon's
friends declare that she was neglected
and that while living in a hotel there
Mrs Amerman occupied a suite under
the same roof.
The Doctors next pastorate was in
Boston, and Mrs. Amerman took up her
residence in Worcester. She was a
woman of 40 and of prepossessing APP
pearance although nearly blind.
1t is not denied that she and the en-
tire Dixon family spent the next sum =
mer in house at East Hampton, L. l.,
leased by Rev. DIR. Dixon. There the
children had diphtheria and were quar-
antined with their mother upstairs. The
pastor and Mrs. Amerman kept house
pleasantly below, Mrs. Dixon's friends
declare.
Mrs. Dixon says that she received no
money and little attention from her
husband, and that Notwithstanding her
protest, her eldest boy Rollin was taken
from his mothers care and placed in
custody of Mrs. Amerman at Wor-
ceSter.
Her friends declare that he called her
insane, although an examination by eX-
perts showed her to be mentally sound,
and that he also circulated printed cop
les of letters, last Sunday, through the
pews, in which she was described as "a
she-devil and perfect termagent.,
| So she sues Mrs. Amerman for dam
ages. Efforts have been made to induce
| her to withdraw the suit but in vain.

THE SENATE.
Naval Appropriation Bill Passed After Five
Hours Debate.

Washington, March 1.-The Senate
is rapidly clearing its decks for final
adjournment. The naval appropriation
bill, which consumed the time of the
Senate for several days, was passed
this afternoon after more than five
hours of debate. In that time, how
ever, it was amended radically in one
respect. The price to be paid by the
government for armor plate was fixed
In the bill at $500 ton, reduction
of the amount fixed by the House of
$l45 ton. In addition, the secretary
of the navy was authorized in event
of the refusal of the armor plate COM
panies to supply armor at 5000 a ton
to proceed to the construction of an
armor factory to cost 81, 500 900, and
placing in the secretary's control 81, 000,-
900 with which to operate the govern
ment plant. The fight for these amend
ments was led by Mr.. Iillman, S. c.,
who made characteristically sensa-
tional speech in support of the prop
osition. The Senate adopted resolutions
of regret at the death Of Lord Hers
chell, and concluded the days session
by pronouncing eulogies upon the late
Representative Dingley Of Maine.
One of the first acts Of the Senate
was the consideration of the bill carry
ing $20,OO0,000 with which to pay Spain
for relinquishing the Philippines, in ac-
cordance with the treaty of Paris. The
measure was passed IN about minute.

PoPE's CONDITION.
Successful Operation Performed On His
Holiness.

Rome, March 1, p. m.-Drs. MAJ
zoni and Lapponi, who left the popes
apartments at o'clock, expressed
satisfaction at the condition of his holt
ness. They said his temperature was
99.5.
The stream of callers continues and
sincere sympathy is shown in all cir
cles, Italian as well as papal. There
is no sign of anything unusual at the
vatican. Cardinal Rampolla took his
customary drive this afternoon.
DR.. Lapponi will again sleep at the
vatican During the operation the
pope asked his private chaplain, FIR,
Angel. to say mass. After the sur
geons had completed their task he was
in excellent spirits and even joked with
them. His holiness slept two hours
during the day.
At o'clock Drs. Mazzoni and Lap
POM again visited him and found that
the pain caused by the operation had SO
far abated as to allow his holiness to
lie on his back At that hour his tenn
perature was lower and his general
condition satisfactory. The cyst re-
moved was about the size of an orange.
During DR.. Mazzoni's visit the pope
asked him how many female patients
were accommodated at the hospital of
st. John, of which DR.. Mazzoni is the
chief surgeon, and he inquired regard
ing the work done at the hospital by
the Sisters Of Mercy. He begged DIR.
Mazzoni to inform the sisters that he
blessed them, knowing that they were
praying for him and for his recovery.
Unless complications, of which there
is no apprehension, should set in, DIR.
Mazzoni will not return to the vatican
until tomorrow ms Nning.

When asked to explain himself, the
counsel for the manufacturers stated
that the object Of the investigation was
to determine what caused the strike.
This he claimed had been accomplished.
John H. Murray, John x. Tobin and
other strike leaders had said that the
so-called 'iron-clad" notice posted up
in the factories had been the direct
cause of the lockout.
The manufacturers did not care to
deny qhis. Neither, ne said, did they
care TO question single statement
made by the witnesses by the other
side. The witnesses were all truthful
men and their word could not be ques-
toned. He requested that the com
mittee report the causes OF the strike
to be just as the strikers themselves
had stated.
