the attempted assassination Of Privy
Councillor Pobiedonostzeff, chief pro-
curator of the holy synod, who was

Their Troubles in
Court.

Washington, April 1.-The order of
the Knights of Labor, through Simon
Burns general master workman, and
John w. Hayes, general secretary and
treasurer, today instituted proceedings
i'll equity for an accounting against
John N. Parsons, Emery E. Burley,
James j. Donnelly, John A. Conner,
A. J. O'Keefe and W. E. Carr, alleg-
ing that the defendants falsely repre-,

district assemblies, and payment of all
such to Secretary Treasurer Hayes.
The bill also asks the court to restrain
the defendants from publishing any

lating any such, except the journal
published by the complainants and to
prohibit the defendants from acting as
general executive board of the order
and to declare the complainants' the
only organ Of the Knights of Labor.
The trouble between the factions of
the knights of Labor dates back sew
e1al years and today's action is in the
form of an amended bill to former liti-
cation.

WAS NOT HAzED TO DEATH

Washington, April 1.-The findings
Of the military court of inquiry which
investigated the treatment alleged to
have been accorded to the late Oscar
L. Booze, a former cadet at West Point
military academy, have been made
public at the war department.. The
findings of the military court are
summed up in letter written by Sec
retary Root, which accompanies the
report.
This letter says: "The findings Of
this court of inquiry, which are sus-
tanned by the evidence, are that the
statements which led to the conven-
ing of this court, to the effect that
former Cadet Oscar Il. Booze came to
his death by reason Of injuries received
by hazing at the academy, were not
true. They show that, at the time
Cadet Booze was a member of the
academy, hazing as pre- valent there to
deplorable extent; that the present
officers of the academy have shown
commendable energy, zeal and eff
cheney in detecting and furnishing
offenses of this character and that
they have greatly decreased the prac-
tice and improved the public senti-
ment among the cadets upon the sub
ject.
"The testimony and findings Of the
court were placed in the hands of the
committee Of congress charged at
about the same time with the investi-
cation of the subject, and the very
efficient and beneficial action of that
committee, followed by the legisla-
tion upon this subject, contained in
the act Of March 2, 1901, renders fur
ther action by the department. unnec-
essary. -

if this course is persisted in there may
be an interruption of diplomatic rela-

an ultimatum that China must sign or

GOLDEN RULE JONES WINS

Cincinnati, April 1-Falr weather
prevailed in Ohio today for the muni
cipal and township elections. An
unusually large vote for April indicat-
ed more interest than usual IN these
local contests. This was due to the
fact that full state ticket is to be
elected next November, together with
members of the legislature, who will
choose successor to Senator Foraker.
In some localities legislative nomina-
ton were made by popular vote.
None show any opposition to Foraker,
among the republicans, and there was
not enough action of this kind to in
dictate any preference for John Nc
Lean, Tom L. johnson or anyone else
whom the democrats favored for the
senatorship.
There was no election in Cincinnati.
