grants From Italy

NEW YORK, May 6--Tae unusually
large immigration from italy this spring
Is responsible for q number Of smallpox
cases on board incoming steamships.
The resources Of the quarantine at this
port are being taxed to the utmost. There
were 500 detained passengers on Hoffman
Island last night This morning the quar-
antine boat is transferring so more from
the steamship Vera. which arrived yes
terday from Naples with three smallpox
patients. The Vincenzo Florio. which az
rived this morning from Naples. with SIS
steeraSe passengers, also brought 4 case
OF smallpox, and it IS impossible to say
how many viii be sent to quarantine on
Hoffman Island until the doctors find
time to make the usual examination. The
probability is that a greater part of the
passengers will be detained.
Almost every steamship which arrived
this month from Naples has brought
smallpox TO the port. and il Is said that
5000 Italian immigrants are booked to
sail for New York from Italy in the
month OF May However, DR. Doty hopes
to clear out a great many of the suspects
before the detention quarters are full
The disinfecting plant is working its fun
capacity and has thus far succeeded in
handling the work The regular board

ing out the suspects and vaccfnating the
exposed people on the infected vessels and
transferring the suspects To Hoffman Isl

KENNEDY'S FIGHT FOR LIFE.
Third Trial of the Accused Dentist
Begins in New York

NEW YORK. May 6--Samuel J. Ken
nedy, dentist, charged with the murder
of Emeline Reynolds at the Grand Hotel.
toaay began in the Court of General Ses-
sions the third fight foe his lie. HIS
prosecutor is James W. Osborne, assistant
district attorney, who convicted Roland
3. NoIineux, and who Is to represent the
State in the trial of Albert T. Patrick,
charged with the murder of William NJ.
Rice the Texas millionaire.
1t is understood that no new evidence
against kennedy has been found, but the
district attorney expects TO present
stronger case than Kennedy had TO COM
bat in February, believing that much evil
dence that was admitted by Justice Par
don g Williams on the first trial, but ex-
cluded by Justice Furspan on the second,
wiz be admitted by Judge Newburger
Important evidence bearing on the sub
ject Of motive, which Justice Fursmau
ruled out, related to Dolly Reynolds with
drawal Of money from her bank a day or
so before she was murdered. The most
essential testimony, however, Of which
the prosecution was deprived on the sec
ond trial was that of the handwriting
experts regarding the worthless check for
$4,000 bearing the endorsement of IS J.
Kennedy" which was found on the Rev
nolds womans body
Justice F'Ursman held that the testino-
ny Of experts was not admissible with re-
gard to the check, as it was not the sub
Ject-matter of the case on trial. The rlI-
ing was generally held to be revoIutiona-
~ and contrary to the practice of the
trial courts in this county but the point
had never been decided by the appellate
courts Considerable Interest attaches to
the present trial IN consequence of the
ruling. for It is believed that Judge New
burger Will follow established practice
md that viii bring the point before the
superior courts for deeison, as Kennedy's
counsel viii be sure to raise it on appeal
The defence, it Is said, has at least one
new witness, presumably to testify to
the alibi which DR.. Kennedy has tried
twice TO estaD4ish Justice Fursman in
his charge on the second trial, pointed
out many contradictions IN the aIibi. and
this line of defence Is difficult in view Of
the contradictory statements Which the
dentist is on record as having made re-
garding his movements in the night of
august Is and the morning of August 10
1858.
Not a few persons hold the most inter
estins feature Of the dentists fight for
life to be the loyalty of his Newdorp

tiCn found witnesses for him. Her atti-
tude has evoked much sympathy from
those who believe Kennedy guilty
When the prisoner was brought into
court Just before noon. his wife did not
go forward to sit beside him as she did at
the February trial. Kennedy appeared to
be in more robust health tnan before. The
selection Of the jury was begun and viii

AN Alleged Effort to stop the Penn
syIvania Miners March,

READING, Pa, May G.-It was learned
here this morning that the State military
might be used to stop the proposed march
Of the miners to Harrisburg. After the
teIephouing TO the mine officers, certain
officers from the State capital were hur-
ried over the Reading Railway yesterday
and today on special cars, to make the
necessary arrangements for getting out
the local troops in the coal regions and to
provide transportation
The claim IS made that the unarmed min
ers. headed by Mother Jones. were pre-
vented by the State troops from marching
into the Panther Creek Valley TO confer
with miners during the last strike. and
that the same thing is now TO be done
The labor element, it is thought, will be
aroused 10 the highest pitch of excitement
if any such military plan is TO be put into
effect. The miners say they mean no in
timidation, but merely want to send men
to Harrisburg to speak personally to the
members Of the Legislature On the impor-
tance Of passing certain bills.
