ESCAPED FRoMisPRINGSID Il.



Annie Parker and Marie Philbin, two
inmates of Springside home, escaped
from that institution sometime Tuesday
night. The Parker woman was COM
mitted to the home by the probate court
some time ago as dipsomaniac. The
two women escaped from the home
sometime about midnight Tuesday
night At that hour all the inmates are
locked in their rooms, but in some way
the women secured key and 1t is
thought that they watched the watch
man Tuesday night and that while he
departmed.
The Parker woman was captured
about 4 o'clock yesterday morning by
Patrolman Coonan as she was alighting
from car which had just come from
Westville. The Philbn woman was not
known to Coonan and she escaped. An
ME Parker said after she was caught
that she had intended to get out of the
city at once. She said that she had
money enough to get away with and she
thought that it was a shame that she
should be prevented from doing so. She
said that after they left Springside
Tuesday night they became lost and
wandered around, not knowing where
they were until they spied car and de-
cided to spend ten cents for a ride to
the city.

ADTICES FROM PRETORIA.


Pretoria, Tuesday, April 1.-THE lat
est official reports from the Orange
Free State are to the effect that Cen
eral De Wet is still surrounding Bra
bant's (Delgety's?) forces, though the
British are strongly entrenched in Boer
fashion, Indicating that they are Colo
mails Commandant Fronemann re-
ports that he chased four hundred
troops across the river in the direction
of Aliwal North, capturing several
prisoners 1t is said that Bethulie
bridge has been blown up.
AS soon as the Berne award in the
Delagoa bay railroad arbitration was
published the Transvaal government
offered to lend Portugal the amount
she was condemned to pay $4,000 ,000), /,
which, however, was courteously de-
clined, the statement being made that
the money was already provided.
The government is receiving many
memorials from burghers on the sub
ject of sending the Boer prisoners to
st. Helena and will formally protest to
Great Britain on the subject. Secre-
tary of State Reitz says the Transvaal
government is not taking any resolu-
ton regarding the destruction of the
mines.

popU11s1s DON'T wANr DEWEY.
Proposition That He Head Their Ticket
Recrlxed In Silemce.

Kansas City, Mo-, April 1S.-Carl
Brown of Coxey army fame was invited
to address the morning session of the
mass convention of Missouri middle-of-
the-road populists to-day and created
CONSERVATION among the adherents of
Wharton Barker of Pennsylvania when
he strongly advocated Admiral Dewey
as the head of the populist national
ticket. Barker" declared Brown in
his characteristic manner, lis up
against the iron wall of conditions, and
defeat for him is inevitable. The head
of the ticket should be the popular ideal
of the people, Admiral Dewey, with
Wharton Barker or Ignatius Donnelly
for vice president. With such ticket"
declared he, 1--WE will stand some show
of beating out both the ticket dominated
by the money power and headed by
President Mckinley and that headed by
William j. Bryan" Silence marked the
close of his address.
The convention also voted to adopt a
new name, the Progressive Peoples

and Ilnd Him Arreeted.

Thomas j. Owens and William Bar
rett, two telephone linemen, were ar
rested last night by Patrolmen Bright
and McQueeney on the charges Of
breach of the peace. 1t seems that the
two men are related by marriage and
that there has been a feud between
them for some time. Last night they
met in Owens brothers saloon on
Grand avenue and became involved In
a quarrel, which resulted in scrim-
mage in which Barrett was badly
bruised up. He went out and COM
planned to Bright and McQueeney. who
went to the saloon and arrested Owens.
Barrett accompanied them to the Grand

TROUBLE OYER SPRTNKLING CARTS
Some Recently Purchased by the City

| The street sprinlsling committee met
| last night to approve bills by the city.
1t seems that after some of the carts
were accepted by the city on condition
that they We're in good condition tor
use it was ascertained that three CT
them were totally unfit for use and
that some repairs would be nee essary
on eight more carts. These were re-
paired at the expense of the city, the
expense amounting to about $50 The
city accepted forty-f1ve carts from To-
cal ontractors, but deducting the
prices Of the three found unfit for use
the committee last night approved the
bills for forty-two carts with the pro-
viso that the money spent by the city
to place the eight carts In condition for
use be deducted from the amounts Of
the bills.
The carts were accepted by the city
on March /, after they had been in
spected by Master Mechanic Sherdman
of the fire department and pronounced
by him to be in good condition. Direc-
tor Troup was present at last nights
meeting and expressed the opinion that
not all the carts inspected by Mr..
Sherdman were turned over to the City,
but that some other carts not in good
condition We're substituted for some of
those inspected Tho three carts ra
jected We're among those purchased
from the New Haven Street Sprinkling

old ones which cost when new $1c5,

THE TROUBLE WITH TURKEY
SEIZURE or SMYRNA NOT SERIO U.s.
~ YENTERTAINED.
Europe-The Probable Course Will be
to Suggest in a Most Diguifed Manner
tho Indignation of This Government
Minister Straus' Opinion.

| Washington, April 1S.-The news o1
| the attitude assumed by the state de-
| partment toward the Turkish govern
ment in the prosecution of its claim for
| damages to American missionary prop
| erty caused something of a sensation In
| diplomatic circles to-day. AS a matter
of fact, based upon their own expert
ence with the Turkish government in
the effort to collect claims, the mem
bers of the diplomatic body here who
have watched the progress of the ne
gotiations between the United States
and Turkey for the past five years have
come to look with amusement upon the
alternating phases of hope and discour-
agement by which they have been char
acterized. Three successive American
ministers have pressed these claims,
each has received promise Of prompt
settlement and yet not a dollar has been
paid President Angel after trying his
hand at collection for two years recon-
mended that a United States warshp
be sent to seize Smyrna and collect
revenues at the custom house there suf-
ficient to meet our claims.
This suggestion was not seriously en-
tertained, nor Is 1t now. In the first
place, according to the state depart
ment officials, most of the most impor-
tant business interests in Smyrna are
in the hands of foreigners, not Turks,
and bombardment by a United States
fleet might result in a pretty bill for
damages against us. Then, as there is
still a remnant of Turkish navy the
United States would have to send a
squadron instead of single warship.
Such a movement would without doubt,
be resented by the remainder of Europe.
which could not contemplate with
equanimity an action by the United
States that would perhaps destroy the
fruits of many years. Therefore the
next step to be taken by our govern
ment will not be warlke, but will still
suggest in a most dignified manner the
indignation felt by the United States at
the betrayal of Turkish promises.
How this attitude will bear upon the
Turkish minister in Washington can
not be foretold at this moment. He Is
SO far absolutely unentangled in the
negotiations of these American claims,
but that fact might not save him from
being made the immediate victim of his
country's laches. The minister how
ever, is very popular personally in
Washington, and as his enforced de-
parture would be matter Of deep re-
gret to official society, it Is earnestly
hoped that by prompt action on its
part, the Turkish government may
avert i'll consequences to its own repre-
sentative.

This morning all the men who had
quit work when the striking laborers
went out reported to the timekeepers in
response to the request of the contrac-

Soon after the whistle blew the entire
works, extending along the valley, took
up their old time busy appearance. 1t
was only an appearance, however, as
the lack Of laboring men was very ap-
parent, the few that were on hand be-

tenth of the works in action. A confer

asked the employers to concede the de-

refused.
A Brooklyn priest and later General

would not go back until the wages were
