THE CHICAGO BARN MURDERS.
James Redmond. . Former Kansas City
Man, Suspected OF Being Implicated
In the Affair,

Chicago, Sept. S.-James Redmond,
alias O'Neil, and Arthur Tibbetts have
been arrested on a charge of COM
plicity in the murders committed in
the barns of the Chicago City Railway
company week ago. The evidence
against Redmond is entirely circum-
stantial, the chief part of it being his
heavy expenditure of money during the
last week.
Redmond formerly lived in Kansas
City, and was tried there in 1900 for
the murder of girl named Shu-
macher. He was acquitted of the
charge, however Tibbetts was ar
rested because Redmond was living in
his house.
Without word of warning two men
were killed and two others wounded
by hold-up men at the barns of the Chi
cago City Railway company, Sixty-first
and State streets, at an early hour
Sunday morning, August 80. The
shooting was done by three men, who
escaped after securing $4,000.

PARTIAL TO UNITED STATES.
British Minister at Havana Says Cuba's
Trade Is Gradually Drifting to
This Country.

London, Sept. 6.-The report of the
British minister at Havana, Mr.. Car
den, on the trade of Cuba for 1902,
was issued to-day. He says: '"The
prospect of the reciprocity convention
between Cuba and the United States
being eventually sanctioned by con-
gress has not failed to affect British
trade by lettering Cuban merchants
from accepting proposals to open up
business relations with British manu-
tacturers. There can be no doubt that
with or without the reciprocity con-
vention, British merchants have to be-
stir themselves if they wish to retain
their present share of Cuban trade.
Combination alone is likely to prove
effective in maintaining our CONNER
cial position in this part Of the con-
tinent."
Reviewing Cuban trade, Mr. Garden
says: cit is encouraging to note the
steady increase in vegetables for ex-
port and the development of Cuba's re-
sources, other than tobacco and sugar"

Francisco have arrived here.
The Powers Landing Marines.
Washington, Sept. 5.-Minister
Leishman has informed the state de-
partment that some of the European
powers have landed marines in Con-
stantinople. If the lives of Americans
there become endangered, the United
States government will also send de-
tachment of marines to Constantine
pie.
In case a necessity develops 1t is
probable that the Turkish government
will be requested to allow the United
States to send detachment of marines
from the squadron at Beirut. Minister
Leishman has not made such a request
of this government The United States
has no authority to send warship
through the Dardanelles, and would
have to have the consent of Turkey and
that Of other European powers to do
so.
Russia and Austria Concerned.
London, Sept. 5.-No British marines
have been landed at Constantinople
so far as the foreign Office is informed,
but it is said that if the British EN-.
bassy requires protection the ambas-
sador is authorized to call upon the
commander of the British guardship
for guards. The foreign Office consid-
ers it probable that Russia and Aus
tria have landed marines to protect
their embassies as result of the
porte's note to the ambassadors warn
ing them that the Bulgarian agitators
were projecting outrages against the
embassies, legations and public build
ings at Constantinople.
France Fears q Crisis.
Paris, Sept. Sit is authoritative
ly stated that in view of the growing

determination follows the receipt of
report from the French ambassador at
Constantinople that it was desirable to
have warships in readings for ali
eventualities. Simil/ preparations
have been made by Italy. Austria,
Russia and Great Britain. The Off
Gals here expect the fleets will act to-
gether in case Of a crisis.

danger for the legations in Constanti-
nople. Minister Leishman has not
asked for marines nor has he given any
indication that they will be needed.
