Steel Magnate.

Il
Chicago, Oct 22.-Armer with two
revolvers, s. I. Morris, contractor
| living at 2O6 LaSalle avenue, invaded
the Rookery building and to several
tenants of the big Office building an
nounced his intention of killing John
w. Gates, ex-president of the Ameri-
can Steel and Wire company. Mean
time Mr. Gates and w. G.. Crimson,
general manager of the Kansas City
& Southern railroad, whom Morris is
also said to have threatened, were
locked in the Offices of Pam, Calhoun
& Glennon, Mr.. Gates attorneys,
anxiously awaiting the arrival of de-
tectives from the central station. De-
tectives Mccarthy and Miskell, who
had been rushed to the scene by Capt.
Colleran on receipt of telephone mes
sage from the attorneys Office, found
Morris disputing angrily with the ele-
vator conductor, who refused to al
low him to ascend. After disarming
Morris the policemen took him to the
central station, where he was locked
up.
Morris had enticed Crimson to CHI
cago by telegram sent to Kansas
City, purporting to have been signsd
by Mr.. Gates. Mr. Crimson arrived at
the Grand Pacific hotel, the meeting
placed fixed in the telegram. Failing to
find Mr.. Gates, Crimson called on him
at his Office in the Rookery building
Hnrn n learned RI tic hot
Mr.. Gates had not telegraphed him.
They decided that Morris had origi-
mated the scheme, both having received
threatening letters from him. When
taken into Capt Colleran's Office Nor
ris at first could not give any intelli-
gent explanation, but finally acknow-
lodged that he intended to collect an
alleged debt aggregating $4,000 from
Gates and Crimson at the point of
his revolver.

spent September at the Kelley insti-
,tute in this city undergoing treatment
for the drink habit. Dr. John E.
Blaine, manager of the institute, said
that Morris talked great deal OF
large sums of money which he de-
clared Gates and Crimson owed him.
1t was Crimson who sent Morris to
st. Louis for treatment
Il wrote to Mr.. Crimson several
times while Mr.. Morris was here
said DR.. Blaine, telling him that |
thought Mr.. Morris was not altogeth-
er right in his mind.

PLOT TO KILL CAR.
Authorities Discover n Mine Beneath a
Railroad Tunnel.

hahrOau Iunnel.
Sebastopol, Oct. 22.-Authentic de-
tails have come to light of a deep-laid
plot to assassinate the car that was
prepared a month ago, and for COM
plicity in which several persons have
now been arrested. There is a series
of tunnels on the railway between Lo-
sova and Sebastopol, through which
the car and cZarina would have to
pass while journeying to Spala, in the
Crimea. The scene chosen for the
murder was the last tunnel, which is
1000 yards long. On the Sebastopol
side of the tunnel there is a cast-iron
pipe at the entrance, which is used to
carry off the surface water. Before
their majesties arrived and before de-
tachments of troops were posted to
guard the route, some people living in
the vicinity of the tunnel noticed a
student, who is now spoke of as *"
and who belongs to the University OF
Moscow, digging in the earth close to
the tunnel. They thought he was dig
ging worms for fishing, but colonel
of gendarmes suspected that he was
engaged in no innocent work. and hal
him watched. When the posse APP
preached him, *" who is the son of
a post captain of the Black sea feet,
threw aside his spade and fed. He
was chased and captured. 1t was then
found that a section of the water pipe
fiftysix inches long had been extracted
filed with explosives, and reburied.
The next day this mine was exploded
in field near Sebastopol with terrific
effect. in the presence of the police
Experts say that it would have de-
stroyed both the train and the Lunre'.

understanding of signals, crashed into
the rear carriage. Luckily both trains
were going slowly. Nevertheless. the
shock partially smashed the end of the
car, SCATTERING the windows of both
trains and extinguishing the electric
lights. There was great excitement,
the darkness in the tunnel adding to
the horror. Women screamed and

scene with lanterns and the passengers
proceeded on foot to the Place de la
Concorde station. The wounded were
promptly removed to hospital. Traf-
flee was interrupted for several hours.

l7,5OO,OO0 bushels. This loss to the
crop is estimated at about 100000

value of about 100000. The loss OF
rice is estimated at $4,000 barrels Of
four bushels each, representing a value
of about $4,000. OF pecans, there
is an estimated loss of 100000 pounds,
