YOUNG AMERICAN WOMAN KILLED.
De R~ydzenski Claims, Fired by
Accident.

Paris. November 20.-Helen Gore, said
70 be an American, was killed by 4 re-
volver yesterday in an apartment occu-
pied by Jean De R~ydzenski, a singer Of
the Imperial Theatre of ST. Petersburg.
De Rydzenski said at first Miss
Gore committed suicide, but subse-
quently he declared the revolver went
off accidentally. Consul General Cow
dy is personally investigating the death
of Miss Gore, who was completing her
musical education here and resided in
the fashionable quarter of Passy. When
found yesterday evening, the victim
was unconscious and had a bullet
wound over her right eye. Two doc
tors were summoned to attend her, but
she died without regaining conscious
ness. The police have accepted the
theory of the young Russian singer who
was in the room at the time hat the
shooting was the result of an accident
during a scuffle for possession of the
weapon. De RydZenski comes of a rich
and noble Russian family. He is the
son of a Russian general and he has
uncles who hold high positions in the
government service.
Miss Gore we'd in the avenue De La
Grande Arme, net far from the apart
ment Of the Pussian, where the tragedy
occurred. The affair has caused much
excitement in that locality, the police
there continuing their investigation and
De Rydzenski is kept under surveillance.
Consul General Gowdy's investiga-
lions have been established that Ellen
Gore registered at her boarding house
as Mrs. Ellen Gore, Of New York. She
dOes not appear to have had any rela-
tives residing in Paris, but among the
effects found in her room are several
typewriter letters of recent dates
bearing the heading, Attorney Edward
G.. Butler Gore, Court of Mexico"
These letters are strictly of a bust
ness nature, relating to property.
1t appears that NJ. De R~ydZenski re-
turned to his lodgings yesterday after
noon, accompanied by Miss Gore whom
he took to his room. Half an hour later
the report of a revolver shot was heard
and De RydZenski rushed into the hall
shouting for help.
The proprietor of the house n sew
eral persons entered the room and found
Miss Gore lying on the bed, While the
revolver was on the rug at the bed
side. De Rydzenski's version of the
affair is that while conversing with his
visitor he had occasion to pick up an
article from the table and he inadvert-
emily knocked off the revolver, the fall
of which to the loor aused it to dis
charge. The bullet struck Miss Tor
and h fell backwards On the bed in
an unconscious condition. The COM
missary of police who has charge of
the case, says the story seems improb-
oDle, but that it is impossible as yet
20 say whether the case is n of muir
der or accident.
According to a servant in the house,
Miss Gore paid frequent visits to the
Russian, who it is now reported, first
said that she a committed suicide,
but afterwards told the police that
while holding the revolver in his hand
it slipped from his grasp and went off

New Orleans, November 20.-The So
ciaIists came within four hundred votes
of securing the control of the conven-
ton of the American Federation of La
Dor today. The struggle lasted almost
the entire day and nan able speeches
were made on both sides, notably these
of D. a. Hayes, James Duncan and
President Gompers against the Social
lists and Victor Berger, Max Hayes and
w. b. Wilson, of the United Mine
Workers. in behalf of the resolution in
trOduced by Delegate Berger and
amended by Delegate Wilson in a man
ner acceptable to Berger. The resolu-
ton favored political action along So
cialistic lines. The debate lasted until
6 o'clock in the evening, when a roll
call showed 4,744 votes against the
amendment of Mr.. Wilson and 4,344 in
favor of it. The miners voted solidly
in favor of the amendment.
President Gompers was today COM
pIetely exonerated of the charges of IL
fidelity to the principles of trades union
ism said to lave been made by Theo-
dore J.. Shaffer, president of the Anal
gamated Association of Iron, Steel and
Tin Workers. The special committee
which conducted the investigation re-
ported that when Mr.. Shaffer appeared
before it he declared that he had not
any time, either in writing or otherwise
made any charges against Mr.. Gompers
ofSnfdelity to trades unionism nor did
he desire to before the committee.
2. J. Sheridan, who brought up in the
convention the resolution which result
ed in the investigation, was also res
ent at the hearing and was asked II 1t
was true that Mr.. Shaffer had made
any charges before the last convention
of the Iron, Steel, Inc Tin Workers
against Mr.. Gompers and he replied
that he had. Mr.. Shaffer denied it. MI.
Sheridan offered to read the mute OF
the meeting at which the charges were
said by him to have been made. Mr..
Shaffer objected to this. because the
minutes were those of a secret meeting
and if read by Mr.. Sheridan it would
involve him into trouble with hls own
organization for divulging the inner
workings of the convention
The convention decided that the ques-
ton of ~Vervacity between Mr.. Smarter
and Mr.. Sheridan was something with
which it had nothing to do n there
being no charges against MIR. Gompers,
there was nothing to do, but return a
finding to hat effect that MI. Gompers
was completely exonerated. This was
lone and the report was adopted by the
convention.
