der Mystery to Probe

new YORK Police Have Another Muir
der Mystery to Probe.
New York. May 18.-Two men have
been arrested by orders of Coroner
GoldenkranZ in connection with the
death of Hirsch Ciesman, baker who
was at first supposed to have commit
ted suicide.
| Ciesman's body was found in cell
lar of building on First street used
as bake shop. Around the neck
was rope, which was attached to a
erect attitude, and the feet rested
squarely upon the floor His neck
was not broken, although there were
several scratches on it. A bandage
had been drawn tightly over the fore
head, crossed at the back of the neck
and then brought around under the
chin and securely knotted Over the
face was woman's veil of light grain
coYor, and about the head was a COW
ering of green mosquito netting. The
body was maltreated in such a way
as to indicate that some one took
upon it savage revenge.
Ciesman was employed by the owner
of the bakery. He had been second
man at the shop until two months
ago, when the first baker, Louis Ca
vera, was taken i'll and was obliged
to go to the hospital. Ciesman then
became first baker.
Gavera came back a few days ago
and tried to get his old position, but
he was unable to do so.
The corone%AShas been informed that
Gavara had made threats against Cies-
man.

NATIONAL ART THEATER.
Mr.. Joseph Jefferson Makes Address
at Meetnq.

New York, May 18.-A meeting in
furtherance Of the plan for the estab-
lishment of a national art theater was
held last night in the Garrick theater.
Joseph Jefferson made the principal
address, in the course Of which he said
that while he was in favor of an en-
dowed theater, there were many prob
lens to be solved.
Il believe" said Mr.. Jefferson, cit
is much better to call attention to the
stumbling blocks before the project
is under way than after. Forewarned
is forearmede The people who sub
sidizes the theater will be very exact
ing in their demands of the actors
and very critical. The authors will
be severely criticised. If theater
can be established with a saving of
rent and continued subsidiary, it is
sure to be a success. It will be able
to present more finely the drama. The
drama is better than ever today. Not
only commercially, but artistically,
and 1t is better acted. 1t is far bet
ter represented than ever"

Officials of the Confederate Veterans
Expect the Largest Gathering That
Has Ever Attended a Reunion of
Confederate Veterans.

The city has made every effort to

to do so in splendid fashion. The
large number of veterans, for whom
tents and quarters have been provid-
ed at the fair grounds has relieved the
downtown hotels of about 10000 Wis
itors and despite the great number of
those who will be present, the hotels
are not choked to death, although it
is now impossible for a newcomer to
obtain a room in any of them.
The reunion proper will commence
at 10 o'clock tomorrow, when memorial
services will be held in Christ church
in honor of jefferson Davis, by the
Confederate Southern Memorial asso-
ciation Two hours later the dele
gates will be called to order in the
convention auditorium at the fair
grounds.
1t is expected that the business ses-
sions of the convention will continue
until 8 o'clock in the evening, and at
midnight there will be concerts for the
visitors and displays of fireworks at
the fair grounds.

question in the house of commons to-

to the department of agriculture that
low grade American buffers were be-

Irish butter, and that other foreign
produce was being sold in England as
Irish. The complaints, however. were
of too general character to enable
