HOUSE WRECKED
BY MURDERERS
Man and Wife Killed and
Two Others
Injured.

.JOHNSTOWN, Pa, Feb. 9.-An at
tempt to hide robbery and murder re-
sulted IN the wrecking by dynamite of
an Italian boarding house at Portage,
TINS county, early today. Two persons
are dead, two are injured and a score
OF others narrowly escaped death. The
dead are:
TONY GRILLO, aged forty-four.
MRS. TONY GRILLO, aged forty.
Ralph Tellilido and George Destavo
were seriously injured. The scene of
house occupied by Grillo, his wife,
three daughters and twenty five
boarders.
When the explosion occurred the in
mates We're hurled in all directions,
but most of them escaped serious in
jury. The bodies of Grille and his wife
were found buried beneath the ruins
OF the building, which was completely
demolished I'D
The boarders 1were all employed
about the railroadt at Portage. They
had no occasion to use dynamite, and
none of the explosive was known to
be in the house, yet persons familiar
with its use say that at least twenty
nVe pounds must have been put off UNI
der the room where. Grillo and his three
little girls slept It was stated that
Grillo had between $500 and $500 and
his wife 5000 more in the house, but
none OF the money has yet been found,
and the theory is that it was stolen by
someone who killed the couple and
then exploded the dynamite to cover
the crime ,i.f
The coroner's examination diselos-
ed the fact that Grillo's head and ribs
were crushed by some heavy instru-
ment. fn 81

TRYING TO DO A BIT
OF TRADING IN
DELAWARE
Efforts of Democrats and
Regular Republicans to
Get Together and Defeat
Addicksism - The Result
Problematic.

DOVER, Del, Feb. 9-Another day
has passed and the senatorial situa-
ton is apparently no nearer a selu-
ton than it was when the legislature
met, but the day was replete with
interesting incidents and rumors. The
first thing sprung today was the DEM
ocratic ultimatum. Then came the
Democratic caucus, which was parti-
cipated in by all the Democratic mem
bers, and later the regular Republic
an caucus, which was attended by all
of the members of that faction.
The Democratic ultimatum was a
proposition to be submitted to the reg
ular Republicans In which the former
agreed to support Congressman Ball
for the long term senatorship, and
eventually to support some other
equally stanch Regular Republicans for
the short term. But for some unac-
countable reason the ultimatum failed
of it's purpose. The regulars held
caucus late in the day and decided
to notify the Union Republicans that
in case the regulars reached an agree
ment of any kind with the Democrats
they would proceed with their propo-
sition without a moments notice to
the union Republicans. 1t was further
decided not to enter a caucus with the
Addicks men on the Addicks with
drawal proposition, which would vir-
ITALY give Addicks the power to
name two United States senators, and
lastly, the regulars decided to con-
tinue voting for Ball and Dupont.
1t is an open question whether the
Democratic leaders can turn enough
votes over to the regulars to elect
Ball or any other man that should be
elected.

guest table We're Joseph w Folk. dis
trlct attorney of st. Louis: w. u. Hen
SCI, former attorney general of Penn
SyfVan1a; Charles S. Hamlin. of Ros-
ton, assistant secretary of the treas
ufy under President Cleveland. and
attorney General John Cunneen, of
new York. The three speakers were
Messrs. Hamlin, Folk and Shepard. Mr..
Hamiln, in his address, said:
Hitherto we have, as a nation. re-
garded the Monroe doctrine as having
relation solely to the attempt of a
european nation to force it's political
institutions upon the South American
republics taking territory for that pur-
pose, and our action has been guided
Dy the instinct of self preservation.
1he present administration, however,
mas extended this doctrine Sc far that
" mas practically made our ministers
Jueges or referees in bankruptcy for
dll SOuth American republics. who are
cheer1uIly encouraged by this means to
eVade the payment of any specific obIi-
gauon Which their citizens have in
CURED by putting forward SO MANY
otner obligations incurred to the citi-
zens or other nations that the result
would be that the individual nations
concerned could recover no dividend
whatsoever"
speaking of regulation of trusts, Mr..
Hamlin said ~
believe the first step should be
RADICALLY to review our system of tar
III taxation to the end that foreign
competition may come in to take the
pldce Oh mat domestic competition that
IS pelng destroyed. Then, by exam

we ShaH soon find what additional leg
islatlon is needed to control monopo-
hes. Meanwhile the federal govern
ment should enforce existing laws and
provide new legislation to secure m
formation as to what these combina-
tons are doing.
We should certainly strive not to
1all into the error, from the Democratic
standpoint, of using the taxing mower
0! the national government as an en-
glhe OF destruction of state property.
as mas been proposed in numerous
DIS Nor can I view with much en-
thus1asm the theory advanced that all
trust-controlled products should be
paced upon the free list. I believe in
the long run it will be better calmly to
lay down certain broad general prin-
clples In accordance with which radi-
cal lowering of taxation NAV take
place.
Mr.. Folk discussed the question of
ofhc1al corruption and declared that if
Samuel j. Tilden We're now alive he
would find a situation vastly worse
than that he contended against in the
days of the Tweed ring. At that time.
ne SAID, 1T was only the city of New
York which was affected hu+ cinno
then corruption had spread like a can
cerous growth to all the great cities Of
the country, and ST. Louis and Min

would prove to be if the real state of
affairs were known.

WILL SECURE FUNDS
TO HELP FAMINE
SUFFERERS
Meeting to Be Held at Com
mercial Club This After
noon to Perfect Arrange
ments for Aiding a Quarter
of a Million People Who
Are In Dire Need of Food.

Today at o'clock a meeting will
be held at the Commercial club to
systematically organize committees
for the purpose of raising funds for
the relief of the famine stricked peo-
pie in Norway Sweden and Finland.
The members of the state committee
appointed by Gov. Van SAINT will at
tend. The representatives of the
Swedish Brothers Benevolent society
will also be present, and cordial in
vitation has been extended to all citi-
zens who are interested in the move
ment.
According to the arrangements which
have been made for. tlfSS meeting, d
full statement of the causes of the
famine, the effect of it, and the form
and amount of relief needed, will be
made by those familiar with the coun-
try, and who have received officially
and otherwise necessary data to en-
able them to speak with authority. 1t
will afford an opportunity for all those
who are concerned for the suffering
to obtain the latest and most accurate
information with respect to the exist
ing conditions.
100000 People in Want.
There are estimated to be in the
neighborhood of 200,0 900 people in actu-
al want, many of them by reason of
infancy or age to help themselves in
any way. 1t is imperatively necessary
in the cause of humanity that a very
large sum of money be subscribed to
assist these sufferers in their dire ex-
tremity, and the people of st. Paul are
expected to do their share willingly
and freely, as they always do.
Already steps have been taken to
obtain contributions from Illinois,
Wisconsin, Montana, the Dakotas and
even from the more Western states,
Washington, Oregon and California
where there are not nearly so many
compatriOts as in the state of Mime
sofa. Last week meetings were held
in Seattle and Tacoma when commit
tees were organized and a handsome
sum promised. The call comes with
especial force to this state on account
of so many residents being Scandina-
VANS by birth or nationality, a consid-
cradle number having migrated from
the very districts where the famine is
now at its worst.
Phe relief funds as raised, are being
sent to the national committee in
Stockholm, appointed by the king of
Sweden. Food supplies such as are
described as "the bare necessities of
life are purchased by this committee
and distributed in the famine districts
Every care is taken that the people
shall not be pauperized through char
ity, but the distress is most terrible
in its extremity, and extends over so
vast a territory that no fund, however,
large, will be sufficient to cover the
case, and for this reason it is felt that
no effort should be spared to swell the
receipts to the top notch.
The meeting will be called to order
promptly at o'clock, and there should
be full attendance.

Union held last night, SIS was donated
