WASHINGTON. April 1.-THE house
entered upon the consideration Of the
naval appropriation bill, with the pros
pect of a severe struggle over the ques-
ton of armor plate, building ships in
government yards. and the provision in
the bill for the coast and geodetic sur.
sey. The bill carries sl3, coo 900 mere
than any previous naval bill.
Mr.. Poss, the acting chairman, and
Mr.. Cummings, the ranking minority
member Of the committee, defended the
bill. The latter declared himself in
favor of paying S545 for Krupp armor at
least until all the ships authoized were
built and said that the committee had
information, the source Of which he was
not at liberty to reveal, showing that we
could obtain Krupp armor at price
lower than any other country in the
world.
Mr.. Kitchin IN. O., one of the mem.
bers who signed the minority report,
criticised what he termed the general
extravaganza OF the bill and advocated
the establishment Of government
armor plate factory to protect the gov
eminent against extortion.

BY ASSASSIN'S shot.
A Sergeant Killed at Croton
Landing, N. Y.
SOLDIERS FRANTIC WITH ANGER.
fhe Omcer Mysteriously Shot while
Changing the Guard. Near Place
Called Little Italy Men Fired III
Bushes but Hit No Person.

CEoToy LANDING, n. Y, April IL
The first bloodshed as the outcome Of
the strike at the Cornell dam was the
life's blood Of Sergeant Robert Doug
lass, Of the Eleventh separate company,
Of Mount Vernon, who was shot dead
by an unknown assassin while he was
relieving guard The widest excite
meft prevailed throughout the camp as
soon as the news Of the assassination
spread to the different tents. aud the
soldiers are frantic over the crime.
The point where the sergeant fell is
known as Post 10, which was ia charge
of Corporal Mcdowell 1t Is stu ted on
top of the hill near Little Italy, where
armed strikers were seen drilling on
marching about brandishing rifles and
shotguns. The spot is high over the
huge pile of masonry, and from it one
can command view of the country for
miles on each side up and down the Gro.
ton valley. Douglass was talking to
Corporal Mcdowell and the other mem
bers Of the guard when he suddenly
elasped his hands to his stomach and
said:

TO the ground. 1t was pitch dark at the
time. but Mcdowell and the others
fired volley into q clump of bushes

ITALIAN WELDED
WEAPONS FATALLY,
and Himself Probably Killed
by IA Train

JoHNsToWN, Pa, April Flour per-
sons are dead and two arc dangerously
wounded at the mining town of Wind
Der, near here, as the result Of a drunken
row in dlsorderly house there. One
Italian is charged with the wholesale
crime, but it is believed that he is
already beyond the reach Of the law, as
a man answering his description was
ground under a train at South Fork.
The row occurred at the home of a
French woman. known as Mrs. Stuck.
until couple of weeks ago, at which
time she married an Italian. The place
has been known as 'tspeakeasy. "
The dead are: John Halverson, a
Swede; Ed p. McCauley, an American;
Gust Griey back, Slav; Samuel Shives,
an American
Some Of these are victims of revol-
yer and some of the deadly stiletto, the
two wounded men, Thomas Kipling and
Jerk Buekwalter, both being wound
ed with the latter instrument. There
were dozen or more men in the house
when the ARRAY occurred, but none of
them can be found, and it is impossible
to learn even the name of the murderer
or any facts concerning him, beyond
that he wore SLOUGH hat, slightly
creased.
Mrs. Stuck and two other women, who
We're inmates of the house, are under
arrest, and the place is being guarded
by men with winchesters Various
stories are ahoat as to the cause of the
row, but the women refuse to talk.
One story is that Mrs. Stuck angered
the murderer by giving too much atten-
ton to other men, another that the fight
was over a game of cards, and a third
that 1t was the result of bad blood over
the strike at the Horatio mine.
Rough treatment will probably be ac-
corded the murderer if it proves that he
is still alive and he is caught.

HAVANA, April 17.-In consequence
of the recent action of the Havana mu-

breaking down the monopoly in the use
of the Slaughter house, held in trust for

who might wish to kill cattle there, and
informing the members of the cattle
trust that if they refused to supply cattle
they would not be allowed in future to
kill at the slaughter house.
Only one man refused to kill, and he
was informed that he would not be al
lowed to use the slaughter house again.
