MnNY TINY SNAKES
LOOSE IN NEW YORK
Theu Are Part Of Shipment for
Geological Park and Wriggled
to FreedOm.

NEW YORK, Sept. 22.-The Bronx
region woke up this morning with a
bad case of snakes" that would dis
courage any temperance society in the
curing.
Curator Dittmar, of the New York
Geological Park, was the innocent
cause, and the effect is likely to be
lasting, as the reptiles are genuine,
and not creatures Of the imagination.
Several days ago two friends of the
curator wrote him that they had cap
tured 375 snakes -rattlers, blacks, ring
necks, garters, ribbons, pug-noses,
milk, green, water and others.
The curator received them, Grated
in two big boxes with air holes, at
the Mott Haven station last night, and
putting them on q wagon, started for
the park But night overlook him,
and he left the wagon in livery sta
BILE at One Hundred and Sixty-eighth
street and Forest avenue. This morn
ing he was awakened by loud cries
from the milk man, a total abstainer.
|! He rushed to the barn. He found
thu. during the night some of the 375
REPTILES had Matched hundreds of little
Icne. These had clawled through Tue
air holes, and the barn floor was fairly
alive. He had a shovel and broom
and filled gunny sack with them
and then started off. Before he had
gone far he saw that dozens more
were wiggling out of the box, leaving
black trail. Hundreds Of the dan
gerous little reptiles escaped and scat
tered about the neghbOrhood. The
people are thoroughly alarmed.

BLOOD ATONE EMENT
Put Forward as a Theoru bu the
Police Officials Who Are Truln0
to UnrdVel the MYSTERIES
Surrounding the
Case.

NEW YORK, Sept. 22.-When the
trunk of William Hooper Young, for
whom the police Of the whole country
are looking in connection with the
murder of Mrs. Anna Pulitzer, was
opened today at police headquarters,
there was found In it sWord-shaped
stiIleto, with blade eight inches long
and an ivory handle; half a dozen
cakes which the woman left her apart
ments to buy, her skirts and under
clothing, the missing bed clothes from
Young's apartments and various arti-
cles Of his clothing and wonlan's wear
ing apparel.
The blade of the stilleto and the
woman's clothing were saturated with
blood, as was the mans trousers and
shirt.
Young is grandson of the late
Brigham Young, the Mormon prophet,
and the belief that the murder had
some connection with "blood atone
ment' finds credence in police circles.
A Salt Lake City dispatch says:
Hooper Young, who is suspected by
the police as the murderer of Mrs.
Pulitzer in New York, is a son OF John
w. Young. son of Brigham Young, who
is a we'll known railroad contractor,
having become wealthy from contracts
In the construction Of THE Utah &
Northern and Utah Central railways.
At the time of Brigham Young
death in 1877 John w. Young was one
of the formers counselors He was
tried under the Edmunds law, charged
with polygamy. but was acquitted on
a technicality. Hooper Young is well
known In Salt Lake, having up to
few years ago resided here.
DERBY, Conn, Sep 22.-Detective
Finley of the New York police arrived
here today with Gustave Ernest of
Brooklyn, who knows William Hooper
Young. Ernest identified suspect
held here as Young, the man wanted
for the murder of Mrs. Pulitzer.
