A DANGEROUS PACKAGE.
what is Thought to Have Been an Internal
Machine Discovered Ina
Mail Sack.

Chicago, Nov. 26.-According to in.
formation received here to-day a dan.
gerous looking package resembling an
internal machine was discovered in
mail sack in one of the postal cars

lust left Chicago for the west. Search
was made, and thick smoke was dis.
covered curling from Utah mail sack.
The contents were emptied, and a

parcel was about ten inches long, four
inches wide and four inches thick. Ten

found in the covering of excelsior and
cotton, and from these a sitting odor

MAYS CLAIM ALLOWED.
The Guatemalan Government will
Have TO Settle With the
American Manager.

Washington, Nov. 27.-It is unoffi-
cially, but reliably, reported TO the
department of state that Mr.. Jenner,
the British umpire in the arbitration
in the case of Robert II. May, an
American citizen, against the govern
ment of Guatemala, has rendered a
Judgment in favor of the claimant to
the amount of $4,000 American gold.
May entered into a contract with
the Guatemalan government to oper-
ate and improve railway for which
he was to receive a monthly subyen-
ton of $4,000, keep the revenues of
the road and be paid for certain eX-
ira work. He began his work in April,
1898, but in October of the same year
was dispossessed by military force.
The subventions due at that time has
been only partially paid, and Mays
claim was for the payment of those
subventions, for money expended in
extra work and compensation for his
general losses. The basic claim was
for 1927 900, and there was to be an
allowance for profits over and above
this sum.

QUARRELED OYER A WOMAN.
The Outcome Was the stabbIng 10 Death
of Young Millionaire OF
Minneapolis

Minneapolis, Mimi, Nov. 26.-Rrank
II. Hamilton, a newspaper man, is q
prisoner at the Central police station
charged with murder rs the result
of the stabbing to death of Leonard
Day, a young millionaire society man
of the city, at the West hotel, early
yesterday morning. Hamilton, who
had been in the custody of detectives
since the tragedy, was not formally
placed under arrest until late yester-
day afternoon, when the coroners
jury returned a verdict holding him
responsible for the death of young
Day.
The tragedy took place in the bill
lard room of the hotel at two o'clock
in the morning, after a quarrel over
woman, participated in by Hamil-
ton, Day and number of other
prominent men. During the fight
Fred George, a society leader, was
badly cut in the right hand.
George and Day were, in company
with c. S. Force, another society no-
table, playing pool, when Hamilton
and Day began quarreling. An effort
was made To separate them by several
bystanders, and for a few moments
quiet was restored. Then the trouble
broke out anew and ended only when
Day lay dying on the floor. Hamilton,
with whom ne had been fighting, was
the first to bend over him ana offer
aid, but it was too late, for in five
minutes the injured man was dead.
The men who had taken any hand in
the affray at once left the place, but
were later found oy the police, who
took charge of the case.
Coroner Nelson, 1T the request of
friends of the prisoner and of the
dead man, held an inquest yesterday
afternoon, when all of the witnesses
of the tragedy testified. None saw
the fatal blow struck, but all agreed
that Hamilton was the only man with
whom Day had been fighting. He was
well known in society circles.
Frank II. Hamilton came to this city
last spring, and has since been en-
ployed as sporting reporter on one OF
the local papers. He has wealthy
uncle in New York.
