China Has Decided to Take Medicine.

PEkIN, Feb. 24.-The full text of tho
imperial cdict regarding punishmcnts
was sent last evening to the ministers
OF the powers. 1t is identical with the
unofficial report of tho contents of tho
edict cabied to the Associated Press.
The ministers say that there is little
confusion with reference to strangula-
tion and suicide, but that this is not
important.
LII Hung Chang received G bulletin
announcing the sentence which conld
be best carried into effect by tho board
Of punishment, and lie requested the
Japanese to deliver Ying Men and
Cha" Shu CiaO in order that the SEN
tcnccs IN their cases might he executed
today in conformity with the edict;
but the Japanese considered the notice
too short and have delayed the en-
forccment of the penalties until Tues
day in order that the ministers of the
powers might send representatives. as
they desire. 1t is also intended to
guard the men Mt the place of execn-
ton, so as to prevent suicide or escape.
When official confirmation, duly Ger
titled by high officials of state, of the
sentences of death upon tho others
shall have been received and these two
nave been executed, China will have
practically complied with the terms de-
manded by the powers, as she has al
ready agreed to issue edicts prepared
by the ministers of the powers for the
cessation OF examinations and regard
ing the responsibility of viceroys and
governors.
Prince Chun, the cmperor's brother,
will soon go to Berlin to express China's
regrets Tor the murder of Baron Won
ketteler. He says China has now ac-
cepted to the uttermost and also per-
formed! everything required by the
powers. except the payment of the in
IDENTITIES, tho amount of which has not
been decided upon. He thinks ar
rangements should be made for tho
evacuation of Pekin in order to enable
the court to return. He says he be-
Ilevcs no nation in history ever COM
piled with series of terms more quick
ly and completely.
N" official announcement has been
made of tho abandonment of the pro-
posed expedition into the interior but
tits not likely that any. further prepa-
ratlons will be made. The foreign en-
voys feel that tho proposal was mas
ter stroke and caused tho settlement
OF what might have been n protracted
affair.
The ministers of the powers regard
the punishment edict as satisfactory.
Chin Stu, former grand secretary, and
Hsu Cheng Yu, son of the notorious
Hsu Tung, win be publicly executed in
Pekln Tuesday.
An edict has been promulgated sus-
pending examinations at all points
which were the scenes of outrages
upon foreigners.

CITY WILL PAY EXPENSES.
Surviving Victims of Mad Dog te
Ra Sent 70 Pasteur Institute.

Mayor Hoos this morning sent COM
munication to Dr. McGill, President of the
Police Board, urging him to send to the
Pasteur Institute, at the city's expense,
seven year old Robert Kennedy, of No. 53
Newark avenue, and ten year old Dora
Broderick, OF No. 361 Second street, the
two known survivors of the five children
who were bitten by mad dog on July
25. 1t will cost the city $500 to do this.
The father of young Kennedy, John Ken
nedy, and Mrs. Broderick, mother of the
bitten girl Dora, called on Mayor Hoos
yesterday afternoon and beggeh him to
have their children sent to the Institute.
Two others of the five children bitten by
the dog died horrible deaths from hydro
phobia. Seven year old Fred Egbert OF
No. 215 Mercer street. died in Pasteur' $
Institute in the middle of August. Eight
year old Robert Kazan. Of No. 149 Morgan
street. died on Thursday last in the City
Hospital in terrible agony. A colored boy
who was bitten has been lost track of.
The Mayor declares that the city will
not kick over $500 devoted to a purpose
where the lives of two children are at
stake. Commissioner Mullins who was
present when the Mayor said this, was
only incensed over the fact that the re-
quest was so long delayed.

APPLICANTS DISAPPOINTED
Judge Blair Did Not See to Ex-
anime Would Be
Citizens. 4

The failure of Judge Blair to conduct
the examination of applicants for citizen
ship was cause for disappointment to a
number of willing g-to-be-cftizens who had
filed their petitions and presented them
selves at the Court House yesterday.
Friday was fixed by the court for these
examinations a year ago after the
News had called attention to the fact
that the infrequent sitting of the ntural-
ization mill had resulted in over 1000 in
tending citizens being denied the oppor-
tunity of proving their eligibility. BY
reason of the summer vacation there have
been no sessions of the naturalization
bureau recently and the failure of the
court to sit yesterday caused no little an
noyance.
Today will be the last on which applica-
tions for naturalization can be filed with
the County Clerk in time to enable the
applicant to be examined and receive his
certificate before next falls election.
Under the law names of applicants must
be posted in the city or town hall in
which they live for two weeks. Those
who have done this can be examined up
to October 5. 1t is announced that Judge
Blair will sit at the Court House next
Thursday and Friday for the purpose of
disposing of pending applications.
Candidates for citizenship whose first
papers mature within the thirty day pro-
hibitory period, or those who come OF age
during that period, can be examined up
to two weeks before election. Any others
who have neglected to file their applica-
tons cannot vote at the coming election

PETITION OF THIRD WARD PARENTS
Manuscript Rolled Round Broom
stick Uenounces No. 2 School.

script almost the size of an old fashioned
rolling pin, invaded the Mayors office at

Norton, of No. 230 Fifth street; Mrs. l..

the old site. Nine-tenths of the sigma
lures were those of women, the mothers
of children who hitherto attended No. 2
School. The long petition bearing the
signatures of 7S0 persons was rolled
around piece of a broomstick. 1t was
headed by "Isadore Cold Fourth and

A CORNER IN WIVES.
German Jailed Because He
Had Four on His
List

Joseph Seigler, thirty-two years old, a
German, was committed to the County
Jail in default of $500 bail by Justice MUIR
ply this morning to await examination
on a charge of bigamy. Seigler is charged
with having four wives. His arrest was
made upon complaint of Mrs. Jennie
Eckert, of No. LISA Summit avenue, who
claims to be wife No. g.
One of Seigler's alleged wives lives in
Newark, another in Paterson, and the
fourth, Miss Marguerite Zwoster. the
! eighteen-year-old niece of John Buchholz,
a we'll known saloon keeper of Greenville,
now resides in Elizabeth Seigler eloped
with Miss Zwoster two weeks ago. He
was located in Elizabeth by Detective
Frank Bennett of the Fifth Precinct yes
terday and brought to this city.
Mrs. Eckert, the complainant in the
case. says she was married to Seig1er by
Justice Fredericks of Union Hill in March
last. Seigler says he has no knowledge OF
the marriage. He admits, however, that
he stopped for several days at Mrs. Eek
ert's home and one morning she told him
that they had been married the previous
night. Seigler says he had a good time
on the night in question and he does not
remember what happened.
His other alleged wives have not been
notified of his arrest, but it is expected
that they will appear against him when
he is arraigned for further examination
next Wednesday.
Seigler was employed at the time of his
arrest as driver for the Rising Sun Brew
ing Company of Elizabeth. Detective
Bennett waited for him at the brewery
until he returned on his wagon. Seigler
tried to escape when he learned of Ben
nett's mission, but Bennett lost no time
in subduing him.
The former Miss Zwoster, now a bride
of two weeks, and fourth on Seigler's list
of wives, was left alone in her apart
ments in Elizabeth. She appeared sur
prised when Detective Bennett told her
that Seigler had three other wives. She
said she would not return to Greenvills
for fear that her uncle would reprimand
her.

"BALDY NOURNS.
Bridget Is Left Lamen

in Jail.

When Charles Middleton, known as
'Baldy Sours'' by everyone who has fre-
quented the neighborhood of the Court
House and Jail during the last quarter of
century, breathed his last in the County
Jail Thursday night, he left at least one
sorrowing friend. When 'sBaldy" was
first locked up in the old gray prison on
the hill, over thirty years ago, he met
Bridget Coogan, who had begun serving
short terms for intoxication many years
before. The fact that both were victims
of the same weakness may have been re-
aponsible for the friendship that sprung
up between them, but ever afterwards
they were staunch friends.

conveyed to Bridget in her cell in ward 2

For thirty years she has seen "Baldy''
leave at irregular intervals the place they
both regarded as home. She always knew

her. Usually his time for freedom would
