the head near the ear The man lost his footing for a moment and Mrs. Pryor kicked him before he could regain his foothold. The thief fell on the steps and Mrs. Pryor seized the bludgeon which had been dropped and started to attack her assailant. He jumped up and ran down the stairway to the track below Between the tracks there is a small fence of netting about three feet high to pre- vent passengers from crossing and to save them from being run down by cars. The thief went oyer this in a bound and Mrs. Pryor also cleared it easily. When he came out of thetunnel at Park avenue she was less than five feet behind him.
 Murder, thievesJ robbers" she shrieked. The mai ran rapidly toward Third avenue, but Ne was soon caught by policeman. As soon as Mrs. Pryor saw that her assailant was arrested she tainted. She was revived in drug store and taken to her home in a cab.

CAGES REPORT
 ON SUBSIDIES Shows the Effect on Shipping by Passage of the
 Subsidy Bill

WashingtonS February 13.-The secre- tary of the treasury today made reply to the resolution of the Senate of the 11th inst concerning shipping of the country as affected by the ship subsidy bill by sending in report from the commission CT of navigation, The statement includes s complete list of the merchant vessels of the United States the total being placed at 1888. Of these 1880, aggregating 6 gross tonnage of S26,694 tons, are regis tsyed for the foreign train. while the ves- gels l.censed for the coasting trade num- ber s2, ,00s of 4.S3S,145 gross tons. Tho com missioner says there is no legal obstacle to any of thesc coastwlse vessels of more than thirty tons entering the foreign
 trade. but that the length of tho canal locks would prevent many of the larger of the vessels of the great lakes from passing to tic Gea. For this and other reasons he finds it iinpractioa5Ie to state the number of consting vessels l.kelY 10 be registered for the foreign Trade under tho shipping bill. The number of ea2sk kri- can vessels in the foreign trade .,sf fdbIe to subsidy under the bill is placed at 1881. of which Sis arc sailing vessels
 The commissioner says 1t is not prac- ticable to shy whether ak these vessels have complied with tho requirements that would cntitle them to subsidy,

Then he said for her to go to the spring, which was about POO yards down in a thick wood. She went and when she got there he was there. and, seizing her, took her, a short distance from the spring, choked her to keep her from crying, and there accomplished his beaStly purpose. Aft erwards he sent her into the school room with threats that she should not tell it. As soon as school was out she rushed home and told her sister, who was caring for her. and immediately crowd of citi- gems captured Hall, who is now on trial. The outraged girl Is in a fearful condi- ton from Halls mistreatment, as Hali is a large, rough man, weighing more than POO pounds.
 The citizens of the place are very much wrought up over the affair. as this is not the first time Hall has been charged with such crime. Pearl Is an orphan girl.
 Rumore are afioat that Hall will be lynched and that d mob Is headed in the direction of the Guntersvilie jail.

New York, February 1S. = Mrs. Louise A. Pryor, wife of Dr. w. R. Pryor, who is a son of ex-Judge Roger A. Pryor, was struck on the head by a piece of lead pipe and robbed today. Mrs. Pryor had several hundred dollars worth of dia- monds and some money in her purse when she was struck. She fought her assailant bravely and managed to escape with a cut on the head, where she was half stunned by the blow from the lead pipe. Patrick Hines has been arrested charged with the crime.
 Mrs. Pryor was a passenger on a Mad ison avenue electric 'car on her way from a shopping tour. These cars run through a channel from Forty-second street to Thirty-third street. At Thirty-eighth street there is a stairway to the street above. Mrs. Pryor left the car at this stairway and was followed by man who had been on the car.
 Mrs. Pryor got halfway up the flight of steps when she heard some one bound ing up the stairs after her. She tried to run but the man was too quick for her. In his hand he carried something like a piece of gas pipe wrapped in a cloth. and with this he hit her on the back of

WINFIELD HAS A
 GREAT SMASHING Enraged Crowd Swoops Down on Joint and Plays Gen.
 eraI Havoc

Winfield. Kan, February 13.-A mob of 200 men and women, armed with axes, re- volyers and shotguns, totally demolished Schmidt's saloon, the finest in the city, early today Some one fire half dozen shots with a shotgun through the front door, and that started general on- slaught with rocks and guns on the win dows and doors. Emma Denny received a pistol ball in her face and was slightly hurt. Although this was an incident, it served to enrage the mob, and sSe cru saders swarmed into the saloon ThcSe they found Charles and Henry Schmidt. After driving them from the building by way of the rear door the mob created havoc right and left. Cigar cases, mir TOTS and pictures were smashed, and those which could not be reached with axes were shot full of holes The ma hogany bar was hacked to pieces and all the bottles and barrels were smashed. This was the work of but a few minutes. The Schmidts ran to the front door and tried to defend their property minister prevented Charles Schmidt from entering the place by striking him with an ax. The blow was a glancing one and made only a scalp wound. As he fell to the ground Henry Schmidt made gun play in defense of his brother that nearly cost him his life. One of the crusaders, following up the preachers attack, had raised an ax to strike Henry Schmidt when a companion wrested the weapon from his hands.
 The greatest excitement followed the raid and for a time serious trouble seemed likely, and the Mayor called a special meeting of the Council to plan means of quelling the disturbance and providing against further outbreak. To- night the Council decided that all joints must close immediately. A mass meet ing is being held tonight and an attack on the other joints is expected before morning The jointists are defiant and bloodshed Is feared.
 Today's attack was decided upon at, a secret meeting held in the Baptist Church last night. The crusaders met at the church by prearrangement this morning and marched directly to Schmidt's place, beginning the assault without the least warning.

THE DEAL WILL
 SOON BE CLOSED
Indications Point to a Speedy Consummation of Steel
 and Iron Combine

New York, February 1S.-The Commer- cial-Advertiser says:
 Every indication points to a speedy consummation of the great deal whereby the large steel and iron interests are to be combined in a definite trade agree ment, bound by community of ownership and Wall street is momentarily expected to make public announcement of the details of the combination. In spite of rumors to the contrary, it was authori- tatively said today by John w. Gates that the negotiations were proceeding without hitch.
 Tt was said the American Steel and Wire Company had raised some ob- stacles. A special meeting of the direc- tors of the company was held today, and, although it could not be learned definitely what was the business of the meeting, 1t was pretty well understood that what ever hitch there may have been was smoothed over behind closed doors. Mir Gates said to reporter:
 "The rumors that a hitch in the ne- gotiations has arisen is untrue. There is no hitch; everything is going smoothly
 MT Clifford, a director of the com pany, said:
 "There Is deal on, but whether the American Steel and Wire and the Federal Steel Company will be merged by the purchase of the controlling interests of the American Steel and Wire by J. P. Morgan, I cannot say
 From another source it was reported that the meeting was held to determine inventory valuations which, 1t is said are to be made the basis of the arrange ment"

Cincinnati, February 13.-There is every indication that the proposed boxing con- test will not be pulled off at Saengerfest Hall next Friday night. There is now as much doubt about the time and place, and especially the time, as there is about the decision of Judge Hollister that is to be rendered tomorrow noon. Sporting ed itors from all over the country arrived today and beseiged the offices and quar- ters of Managers Brady, Madden Cook and others. who told them that they could not advise them as to anything until tomorrow afternoon. As soon as Judge Hollister renders his decision these managers will have a conference with the directors of the Saengerfest Athletic As sociation and decide upon their plans for the future.
 In the absence of definite information today the local and visiting sporting ed itors, together with the managers and promoters, held sort of mutual dis gust convention. This self constituted reform convention held that the pugilis- tic department in their line would be dropped from the papers unless some thing was done The discussion became general over the proposition for new name for such events. It was claimed that the terms ''glove contests" boxing contests" sparring matches" etc., were too lame to attract crowds. It was the universal opinion that the old name of "prize fights" must go if such events are to be pulled off at places where they can be made the most profitable. It is con- ceded that if Judge Hollister grants the applica ton for permanent injunction that the postponement would be for some weeks, so as to give time to carry tho
