NO INTERNATIONAL
COMPLICATION is FEARED
General Opinion Here, From Meager
News, Is That the Monroe Doctrine
Has Not Been Violated.

General opinion here, based on the
meager press dispatches, is that no
international complication will arise
from the sinking of the Haitian insur-
gent gunboat Crete Pierrot by the
German gunboat Panther for having
seized the German steamer Markoman-
mia, bound for Cape Haitien with arms
for the Haitian government.
The Monroe Doctrine has not been
violated. The Insurgents have no rights
as belligerenis, and Admiral Killick, the
insurgent commander OF the Crete a
Pierrot, was last month formally aoti-
fed by Commander McCrea. of the
United States gunboat Machias. that the
blockade he attempted was not recog-
nized and that any interference by the
insurgents with foreign commerce would
rot be tolerated.
The United States would have had
right under precedents existing 10 have
taken action similar to that pursued
by the German gunboat had United
States commerce been interfered with.
The German government has appar-
emily taken the ground that the in
surgent admiral's act is one of piracy.
The provisional government of Haiti,
which is the one recognized by the
diplomatic representatives at Port au
Prince. has declared Admiral Kiilick a
pirate.
The United States Government has as

GRIEF FOR WIFE CAUSES
A MERCHANTS SUICIDE
Young Richard Braunlich Takes MS
Life Despite Protests OF
Two Cousins.

NEW YORK. Sept. Since his Wite
died two months ago. Richard Brain
Itch. twenty-five years old. ciothiha
merchant who lived at POPS First Ave
nue had been morose and melancholy
and MANY times he hinted at suicide
because. he said. the death of his wiie
had left the world without attraction
for him.
Yesterday afternoon. while sitting in
the sitting room of the little HAT where
the wife had died, and in the presence
of two cousins who had been utterfns
consoling words, Braunlich placed the
muzzle of a revolver in his mouth and
fired. dying almost instantly.
"Goodby. boys. I'm going to join her.
we're the disheartened mans last words.
Braunlich had been married only four
wears. when, about two months ago, the
death of his wife occurred under cir
cumstances that made an unusually deep
impression upon him.
Without seconds warning Braun
Itch pulled the revolver from his
pocket and placed the muzzle, in his
mouth. The Precht brothers jumped
from their chairs and tried to seize
Braunlich's arm. but we're an instant
too late, and the shot rang out. Bruun-
Itch Imply slid from his seat to the
floor
The police were informed. and some
one telephoned to Harlem Hospital for
an ambulance. Dr. Donovan pronounced
Braunlich dead. He left no children.

arrived at Cape Haitien. and the revo-
lutionists gradually gathered under his
power. The provisional government was
established by the loyalists at Port au
Prince, and this was recognized by the
consular representatives of the powers.
The Firminists organized their govern
ment at Gonaives
Since May fighting has gone on, the
revolutionists being under General
Firmin on land and represented on the
sea by Admiral Killick with the gun
boat Crete a Pierrot. A battle was
fought at Limbe last week, in which the
provisional government troops, under
Gen. Aleais Nord, minister of war, were
defeated by the revolutionists.
Warned by McCrea.
Until the arrival of the Panther Com
mander McCrea, with the United States
gunboat Machias, had represented, in
addition to his own Government, the
British, Frer.h, German. Italian. Span
ish, Russian. and Cuban interests. He
took firm stand for the protection of
these interests, saying in warning note
to Admiral Killick:
You are informed that | am directed
TO prevent the bombardment of this city
tCape Haltien) without due notice: also
to prevent any interference with com
merce, either by the interruption of the
telegraph cables or the stoppage of
steamers engaged in innocent trade with
friendly powers. All Interference, ex-
cepting with Haitian interests, | shall
endeavor to prevent. Hoping there Will
be no necessity for extreme measures.
and also that a peaceful solution may
yet be arranged to save the republic
from ruin. am" etc
Attempted a Blockade.
Admiral K,iiick attempted block
ade OF the port. but when our Govern
ment refused to recognize it, he aban-
doned the plan. The German embassy
sent note of thanks to the State De-
partment for Commander McCrea's as
sistance.

The youthful trio stood behind the
bar at the First precinct station last
night and nonchalantly answered all of
the questions put to them by the police
with careless abandon that would have
done credit to many others older in

of business were broken into in the
neighborhood of the Tenth Street lunch
room yesterday afternoon and they are
of the opinion that all three places were

This action aroused public sentiment
in Germany. On Sunday morning the

ticle on the situation in Haiti, said that
the seizure of the munitions on the
Markomannia was piracy, and that when
the Panther arrived on the scene it
would be necessary to make short work
of the Haitians.
Another dispatch said the German
fcreign office agreed with the foreign
representatives at Port au Prince that
Admiral Killiok's act was piracy, in

as the representative of a belligerant
state.

On the way he passed the site for the

iished here
The President left his carriage at
Orchard Knob and walked up the hill to
the spot from which Grant had directed
the battle of Missionary Ridge. Then,
apparently scorning to re-enter the car
riage, he walked a quarter of a mile
back to the trolley line
The trolley took the party to the foot
of Lookout Mountain, whence it was
transferred to the summit by an incline
railroad. which rises at the rate Of sew
cnty-five feet ir every hundred over
most of its route. From the top of the
mountain the President had view OF
the whole field of the Chattanooga cam
paign, which was explained 10 him In
brief talk hy General Boynton.
An incident of the Presidents trip to
the battlefield today was the presenta-
tion to him by a committee of Georgfans
of cane cut from the battle grounds.
The Presidents mother was born in the
corner of Georgia where the battletie los
are. The President made a little speech
thanking them for making a gift which
would be very dear to him. The Presl-
dent found two former officers OF his
regiment serving as officers of the Sew
enth Cavalry-Lieutenants Cartwell and
Palmer. He sent for them and made
much of them.
While the President was driving along
Missionary Ridge this afternoon there
came a trolley ear down the side of the
mountain toward crossing which the
Presidents carriage had not reached.
1t was observed that the driver was
stopped by the Secret Service men and
the trolley car was respectfully allowed
to go its way before the carriage was
taken across the tracks.
