st. Charles hotel to-day. O'Neill who is
apparently rs or 80, arrived last night.
He left letter saying that he had a. wife
living in New York city to whom he had
been devoted. Some time ago he came
south and located at Orange. There he
obtained employment on the Tribune and
fell desperately In love with young girl.
Very recently the young lady's father
forced him to agree to a marriage.
Without giving him an opportunity to say
that he already had wife, O'Neill's 8

immediate ceremony, which was per-
formed. T.. So /
After the marriage, the letter continues.
Il babe my new wife farewell and started
on a journey to New York to tell the
whole story to my original wife and as

to obtain money enough to carry me far

London, Oct. "a dispatch to the
Chronicle from Vienna quotes reservedly
9 report published In a; local paper at
Czarnovitz that massacre OF Jews was
perpretrated at Mohilev Podolsky near
Ktshinef, on Thursday. On Wednesday
the rabbi warned the Jews not to go to
the synagogue on the following day,
which was reconciliation day, as mob.
including the neighboring peasantry, in-
tended to assault the synagogue. He ad-
yised the Jews to arm themselves, which
they did. Bands entered the town on
Thursday and assailed the Jews, who re-
sisted. The massacre lasted all day.
Three hundred Jews and one hundred
Christians were killed.
The Berlin correspondent of the Daily
Express sends similar story. He says
that what was intended to be a massacre
became sanguinary fight, which was
waged with the greatest fury. The streets
were strewn with bodies.
