l Charles Barry. an unmarried man | living at IA Warren place, attempted suicide last evening about o'clock by taking a large dose of carbolic acid. Barry lives with his mother and came
 home last evening under the influence of drink. He quarreled with his moth- CT. and after the quarrel he went to

 Keegans drug store on Grand avenue for the purpose of getting something to
 relieve the man. A nurse, Miss Bessie
 Radigan, was there at the time, and she went over to the station with some sweet oil magnesia and epson salts. The medicine was poured down the mans throat and relief seemed to come to him. About 7:30 o'clock Dr. Moore arrived and he ordered Barry sent to the hospital.

KENNEDY CASE " 1unY's HANDS.
LockedlUp Last Night Until 2 o'clock This Morning..

New York, Feb. 21.--The jury in the case of pr. Samuel J. Kennedy, accused of the murder of Dolly Reynolds, af- ter listening to the charge of Judge Fursman retired at thirtyfive minutes past three o'clock this afternoon to de- liberate on the verdict, and at 10 o'clock tonight Judge Fursman announced a recess until 10 o'clock tomorrow morn ing. The jury has been locked up for the night. Until the adjournment of the court the prisoner, his wife and his mother sat talking together in the pris- on pen in the criminal court building. At times they would be joined by Law yers Moore and Cantwell who sought to cheer the anxious trio by informing them of the rumors in circulation con cerning the jury. Some of these were to the effect that the jury stood nine for and three against Kennedy. There was no basis for the rumors, however, and they were really surmises of people who really knew nothing of what was going on in the jury room. When recess was announced Kennedy was taken back to his cell in the Tombs, and his wife and mother left for their homes on Staten Island. A large crowd remained await ing the verdict until the jury was locked up for the night.

German Correspondent Says War
 With Russia is Thought Likely.
 Berlin, Feb. 21.-The Vossische Zelt- ung published communication from special correspondent at Niu Chwang who says:
 T have just returned from trip through Manchuria, where the insecur- ity is general. The shops are closed md the annexation of Manchuria is considered complete. The Russian civil government has seized the maritime taxes and has introduced a head tax. The free harbor here is to remain, but commerce is ruined by incompetent ad- ministration and undiscipined soldiery. Plundering Russian soldiers attacked the hotel where I was staying February 10 and the British consulate the next day. They shot the watchman at the consulate dead. Japan is very bitter over the annexation of Manchuria. She still hopes for Germany's and England's 8 assistance, but if she does not obtain this, she intends to proceed independ- ently in Niu Chwang and along the coast. The belief is general that i'll the spring there will be new uprisings and a Japanese war is considered likely.''

Interest in the situation of the con- mon pleas judgship matter continues unabated, and conjectures and rumors concerning it are still flying about
 There is talk that if the contest over the common pleas court judgship con- tinues there is a, strong probability that other names than those proposed by the republican caucus will be proposed for the election of judges of the New Fla ven city court. It will be remembered that the resolutions for the election of Judge Bishop and Judge Dow to the city court positions were tabled in the Senate Wednesday, and still remain on the table, while the continued hearing on the resolutions for the election of Judge Cable and Judge Hubbard to the court of common pleas iudeeship will be held by the committee on judicial nom- nations next Tuesday afternoon. This rumor of the insertion of more candi- dates for the city court places adds most interesting phase to the situation.

 "Yes. I was asked to sign the peti- ton which went to Hartford. I refused, and I will state that I shall not, under any circumstances, allow my name to be used in conneeticn with the common pleas court judgeship.

PLAN TO DEFRAUD JEWELLERS.
A Man of Many Aliases Arrested in
 Boston.

Boston, Feb. 21.--According to the statement from police headquarters to-
 day, a plan to defraud the wholesale
 jewelry trade of Boston was checkmat-
 ed by the somewhat mysterious arrest last night of one John Forster, of New
 York. Chief Watts, of the criminal in vestigation bureau, says that Forster has as aliases Foster, Forester Smith and Faith, and Is better known in New York and Chicago than in this city, and that his right name is believed to be Emanuel Goldberg, once lawyer of 320 Broadway, New York city, and whose recent living place may have been at 730 East Ninety-siXth street. The se- crecy with which the arrest was made is said to be due to the fact that an agency had been Investigating Forsters s business acts, and that most of the in formation as to his past career is fur nished from that source.
 According to the meagre explanation Chief Watts offers for the arrests, two confederates of Forster's are wanted, q woman and man.
 Forster was taken into municipal court and charged with the larceny of forty-seven watches, the total number finally found in his possession and held in $1,000 until next Thursday. He ex- poets to get bail. Telegrams have been sent to several cities asking detectives to investigate certain clews, but the police will give out no information on this point It is not known what For ster says about himself except that he claims to have come from Denver and that his wife lives in Hoboken.
 New York Feb. 21.-Four men, Fred erick H. Roeder of this city, John F. Cavanagh of Pittsburg, Oscar Itchten- stadt and Leopold Oppenheimer of this city were arrested to-day charged with an attempt to secure $5.000 of ieWelrv on sWindle.

CUBAN CONSTITUTION SIGNED
I COPY SENT TO GOVERNOR GEN.
 ERAL WOOD.
Another Placed Among the Records of Conventton-Order In Which the Delegates Affi xed Their Names-Sen0r Cisneros Creates Sensation by First Refusing to SIgn.
Refusing to Sign.

| Havana, Feb. 21.--The Cuban consti-
 tuition, first submitted by the central
 committee to the convention at the pub
 lie session of January Fl, was signed to- | day. One copy was sent to Governor General Wood and the other was placed
 among the records of the convention. A | delay of two hours ensued before the 1 reading of the document At o'clock l the members affixed their signatures, l the president and vice presidents lead- | ing off and the delegates following in the order of their seats of the floor of
 the convention, the two secretaries sign ing last
 Senor Cisneros created sensation by refusing to sign. He said: Cuba is
 now independent and can see no req son for sending this constitution to the United States for acceptance. The Unit
 ed States government has no right to
 pass on it, for it Is a distinctly Cuban
 document and was drawn up by this
 convention, which has assumed the re-
 sponsibility of establishing the repub- 1ic."
 Several delegates crowded around him and endeavored to dissuade him from his course, but he was imrnovable. As the delegates retired Senor Tamayo re- marked: We are all Cubans, senor," and Senor Cisneros replied: Yes, when the time comes to fight the Americans we will fight them together"
 Then he turned toward the press ta- ble. and, shaking his fist at the Ameri- can newspaper men, he said: The Americans are like the monkey When the monkey closes its paw on thing it never wants to let go." Subsequently he said he would sign the copy of the constitution that had been filed with the records of the convention, but would wait until the other had been sent to Washington in order to prevent any possibility of his name being attached to that also.
 Senor Capote, president of the senate, delivered the document this evening to General Wood. The latter would not say whether he intended to forward it to Washington or wait un- til an agreement had been reached as to the future relati between Cuba and the United States. He sent per sonal letter to Senor Tamayo, chairman of the special committee on relations this evening outlining the suggestions sent by Secretary Root, but pointing out that these were only expressions of the federal executive and should not be taken as an official declaration of the United States it being necessary to re- fer the whole matter to congress.
 The special. committee on relations | has nottyet decided what report 1t will make. Another meeting has been call ed for tomorrow. Senor Tamayo con siders General Woods letter as pri- yate communication, which he is not at | liberty to lay before the convention.

MISS CATHERINE NORRIS, DEATH
She Took Poison While HI and Tempo
 rarily Deranged.

Miss Catharine N. Norris, daughter of MT. and Mrs. William c. Norris, of No. 143 Wallace street, and sister of City Clerk Henry c. Norris, who had been in i'll health for some time, died yesterday afternoon as the result of taking an overdose of medicine mixed with some insect poison which hap pened to be in the house. Miss Norris had been suffering from neuritis, a nervous affection, for some time, and 1t was while in temporarily deranged state due to that illness that she took the concoction which caused her death.
 She appeared to be feeling unusually well yesterday forenoon and ate din- ner with the family. It was soon after dinner, about 1:30,, that she mixed some alcohol and some insect poison known as Roach salts and drank the dose. A physician was called as soon as the family learned what she had done. All efforts of the physician were unavail- ing, however and she died about 4:30 yesterday afternoon. It is probable that if she had been in good health she would have recovered, but her system was in a weakened condition to her ill., ness and could not rally from the eff fects of the poison The friends of the family sympathize deeply with them in their sad affliction.

MORE HOUSE SENSATIONS.
A Charge That Employees Have to Divide
 Their Salaries.

Washington, Feb. 21. This was
 another field day in the House. Two distinct sensa tions occurred. Early in the day, during the consideration of an amendment to the deficiency approprla- tion bill to prevent hazing at the naval academy MT Hepburn. of Iowa, used exceedingly strong language while in- weighing against the practice of haz- ing. MT Cannon, of Illinois. and MT, Dayton, oe West Virginia, warmly de- tended the navy.
 The stir caused by MT. Hepburn's speech, however, was mild compared with the row which was kicked up lat CT over some items in the bill for extra compensation to employees of the House MT. Dinsmore, of Arkansas, exposed the fact that one of the employees of the House, while occupying one position was drawing salary for another, and that the difference between the salaries was to be made up in one of the items of the bill. This led to a general ven- tilation of the domestic affairs of the House which MT. Bailey, of Texas, de- clared that the situation was scandal upon the integrity of the House, and that some of the employees had to di- vide their salaries with outsiders.
 At the close of the session MT. Bailey offered resolution for the appoint ment of an Investigating committee, which was referred to the committee on rules upon the assurance of MT Payne, the, majority leader, that it would be reported at once. The gener- al deficiency appropriation bill-the last bill-was passed.

Appeals to Them to Fight Until Not n
 Man Is Left

Standerton, Feb. 21.-A deserter who has arrived here relates that Command ant General Louis Botha assembled his men February and addressed them from Cape cart He declared that they should never surrender so long as there were five hundred left, adding that he would always be ready to lead them. He reminded them that the American colonies fought for more than six years to secure independence and appealed to them to fight as long or even longer if necessary, until not a man was left. Some of the burghers re- piled that they did not see how they could fight much longer as the British were destroying all the crops and cap turing all the cattle and sheep, while the ammunition was nearly exhausted, save about six rounds. When this is gone" they said, 'where shall we get more?' General Botha replied that the Lord would provide them with the means of fighting.
