FIRE SWEEPS
COMFY ISLAND
One Life Is Lost and Property Val
ued at a Million and Half
Destroyed.
Two Ex-waiters Are Arrested Ac.
cused Of Having Started the
Big Blaze.

New York, Nov. 2.-Fourteen solid
blocks of buildings in ruins, one life
lost, two score persons injured, 500
persons homeless and a financial loss
of $1,50O,0OO is the outcome of an al
legged drunken freak which resulted
In fire at Coney Island yesterday.
Franw Connolly, 81 years old, and
Peter Shelley, 38 years old, formerly
walters in the Albatross hotel, are
locked up charged with arson on the
strength of a statement made by Bar
ney Wolf, proprietor Of Raines law
hotel at the island. Wolf says that
on Friday night Connolly and Shelley
in the presence of aescrowd said that
things were getting%du1l on the island
and they believed they would Ifven
the place up with a fire.
Wolf says he saw them start fire,
which he put out. Again, yesterday,
he asserts, they started a second fire,
but he arrived just as the flames shot
as he had done on Friday, but gave
the alarm. When he saw his own
place go up like finder and heard his
brother-in- law, Albert Rubin, had his
skull fractured by leaping from a win
dow to save himself, he told the po-
lice of Connolly and Shelley.
The story Of the alleged incendiar-
ism was all over the lSland Wn1le the
flames were at their height, and feel
ing against Connolly and Shelley ran
high.
To-day there Is a great scarcity OF
food on the island and hundreds are
suffering for the ordinary necessities
Of life.
Shelley and Connolly, upon arraign-
,ment to-day, pleaded not guilty to a
charge of suspicion of arson and they
were remanded for examination on
Nov. 4.

A DOUGHNUT
KILLED HIM
It Lodges in Frank Hayden's Throat
and He Chokes to
Death.
Mutely Appealed for Help but the
Crowd Thought He Was
Crazy.
New York Sun Special Service.

Chicago. Nov. 2.-His wild gesticu-
lations mistaken for the frenzy Of a
maniac, Frank Hayden was allowed to
choke to death last night at Went
worth avenue and Sixty-third street.
A piece of doughnut lodged in his
throat, deprriving him of the power Of
speech, and when he struck himself
on the back and backoned passers-by
to aid him, no one ventured near.
When, with failing strength, he tried
to insert a silver tube in his throat,
some one shouted Look out he is
going to shoot" and spectators fed in
terror. The police arrived at length,
in reply to a summons to capture an
insane man, but Hayden was dead.
Hayden underwent tracheotomy
three years ago, and since then could
not eat with safety without silver
tube In his throat. Last night, how
ever, the tube was in his pocket when
he entered a restaurant and ordered
coffee and doughnuts.
Scarcely had he been served when
the other diners were startled to see
him spring to his feet and strike him
self repeatedly on the back. When he
clutched at his throat they fed,
shouting for the police.
Hayden staggered after them,
mutely appealing for help. but no
6ns unde rst%san his plight Whsre a
DioW DcIWc cell IuS
might have saved his life. no one
ventured near him.
Hayden, now black in the face, stag
gered into a cigar store near by, where
he drew from a coat pocket a portion
of the tube which had been placed in
his windptpe three years ago, and
attempted to force it into his throat.
This caused another stampede, and a
number of persons ran from the store.
One of them went into a drug store
at 1901 Wentworth avenue, where he
was followed by Hayden.
There were a number Of women in
the place, and they became frightened
when the man shouted that a maniac
was following him. A woman started
to leave by the front door as Hayden
rushed into the place with the tube
protruding from his mouth, but she
was brushed aside by Hayden, who fell
at her feet and died,

BATTLE WITH

"a Deputy and Three Of the Reds

Ready.

Stock of Settlers.

special to The Journal.
Cheyenne, Wyo., Nov. 1.--Adv1ces
were received here last night or a
bloody battle fought late Saturday at
ternoon so miles north of Lusk, Wyo.,
between q posse under Sheriff w. II.
Miller of Weston county and band
of twenty-five Grow Indians, under
Charlie Carries Elk.
The Indians had been slaughtering
game and killing the cattle and sheep
of settlers, and officers attempted to
arrest them. Several Indians We're
captured, their wagons, stock and
game conflscated and sent back to
Newcastle, but they got away and led
he officers a long chase thru two
ounties.
The posse came upon the Indians
Little Lightning creek, just as they
IRE going into camp. Sheriff Miller
IS fatally wounded and Deputy Fill
y-nburg killed. Three Indians were
4.silled and several wounded. Two or
three deputies were also wounded.
Soldiers May Be Sent.
Governor Chatterton has been ad-
vised of the trouble and will probably
send a company of soldiers to the
scene. The companies at New Castle
and Buffalo have been instructed to
hold themselves in readiness to take
the field. Ranchmen and others in
the vicinity of the battle are hurry
ing to the scene with all possible haste
and it does not seem possible that
the band Of murderous Indians can
get away.
They are headed for the Bad Lands
of western Nebraska, and, being IA
miliar with the country, they may be
able to reach the Pine Ridge agency
before being overtaken. Once inside
of the reservation they will be prac-
tically safe from pursuit and identifi-
cation.
Further Outbreak Feared.
A serious outbreak among the In
dams is feared. They charge that the
government does not supply them with
sufficient food and that they are COM
PEELED to hunt and slaughter the live
stock of ranchmen in order to live;
but this statement is not believed.
The facts are these: The Crows,
Arapahoes and Sioux go backward and
forward every fall during the game
season on visits to each other, and
during these annual pilgrimages they
want to slaughter all the game in sight
and incidentally kill steer or sheep,
and they are also charged with steal
ing horses from settlers.
Efforts have been made to put a
stop to the outlawry, but always with
put success. Recently the authorities
Of Weston county determined to stop
the unlawful practices, and Sheriff
Miller was instructed to arrest the In
dams. The latter became ugly and
refused either to desist or get out Of
the county.
A large party of special deputies
with provisions and medical supplies
and accompanied by surgeons, left
New Castle late last night on a special
train for the scene Of the battle. The
party will join in the chase and the
surgeons will care for the wounded.

shortly after reaching the institution.
Ehrenreich entered the house about

She replied that Mrs. Ehrenreich was
on the second floor at work. Ehren-

the girl that he was going to do some
thing great.

he said, "but could not. Now I am
going to make sure of it to-day. You
will soon know what it is.
Without further talk he made his
way to the second floor. An instant
later sounds. of a scuffle. loud voices
and five shots fired in quick succession
were heard. Before Miss Ernest had
recovered from her surprise, Ehren-
reich ran down the stairs and out the
back door. He was followed almost
Immediately by Miss Olga Nimmer,
another cham bermaid, who screamed
that Mrs. Ehrenreich had been shot
and was lying dead at the head Of the
stairs.
The two chambermaids, who were
alone in the house, ran screaming into
the street and crowd of neighbors
soon arrived. With GREATNESS haste
they made their way to- the head Of
the stairs where they found the dead
woman lying in a pool Of blood. Some
one went to the North Side police sta
ton, five blocks away, and an officer
was detailed while the coroner was
summoned.

street and fall almost directly in front

and detecting the odor of carbolic
acid, at once telephoned the police
that a man who had taken poison was
lying in front Of her door. The patrol
wagon was sent and Ehrenreich was
on his way to the hospital when the
police learned that he had murdered
his wife before taking the poison.
When Deputy Coroner Fl. G. Irvine
arrived on the scene he found Mrs.
Ehrenreich lying on her side with her
head at the entrance Of one Of the. sec
ond-foor bedrooms, while her feet
were near the head of the stairs. Zone
arm lay slightly over her head while
the blood oozed from a bullet wound
in the shoulder. Blood was also flow
ing freely from wounds in the back
of her head. An examination Of the
wounds showed that the one in her
shoulder had been fired from the side
and a little from the front. There were
three wounds in the back Of her head
and one in her right cheek. Unless
either the wound in the cheek or the
one in the shoulder was made first,

GREENE KNEW ABOUT 1T
He Also Tells the Story of That $500,
900 Offer.

New York, Nov. 2.-Police Commits
sioner Greene declared to-day that last
June an agent of a poolroom syndicate
made an offer to Deputy Commissioner
Piper of 100000 to allow the pool
rooms of the city to run quietly until
Jan. 1. The commissioner said that
not only had the offer been turned
aside with scorn and indignation, but
an effort had been made to have the
agen of the poolroom men indicted.
This effort, however, failed.
Commissioner Greene said that Some
person, who Is as yet unknown to him.
called on a friend of Captain Piper
and, representing himself to be an
agent Of the poolroom syndicate, said
that If Richard Roe would get Cap
tain Piper to consent to quiet run
ming of poolrooms until Jan. /, he
would pay to Captain Piper 100000
and would pay the handsome sum of
$4,000 to Richard Roe" for his serv-
ices.
Richard Roe" was very indignant,
said the commissioner, land ordered
the man out Of his office. He has
never seen him since"
Later the friend told Captain Piper
of the incident. The matter was laid
before District Attorney Jerome, who
said, as there we're no witnesses, an
indictment could not be obtained.

Mr.. Cannon's remarkable campaign
for the speakership caused all the
other aspirants to retire from the
field early in the contest. There
fore, the republican caucus will be
merely a ratification meeting, as Mr..
Cannon will be nominated by acclama-
ton, and, unless there is surprise in
store for the members, the officers Of
the last house will be reelected.
Cannon's Policy.
Since Mr.. Cannon became the choice
of his party for the speakership he has
studiously refrained from discussing
his policy, declaring when questioned
that he was but one humble member
of the house and the house would de-
eide it's own policy. Notwithstanding
these declarations of the next speaker
those who are close to him know that
there will be no attempt to enact any
financial or tariff legislation. He will
stand for economical expenditures for
maintaining the government and will
favor appropriations liberal enough to
run the machinery of the government
as 1T should be run properly. Only
such legislation as is necessary will he
enacted at the next session Of con-
gross.
AS to committees, Mr.. Cannon has
given this question consideration in a,
general way only. He desires to con-
suit his colleagues before making any
committee assignments so as to ascer-
tain their wishesand dfeer to them as
far as possible.
AS soon as Mr.. Cannon has taken
the oath as speaker he will announce
the personnel Of the ways and means

ways and means committee will be ap-
pointed so it can report a resolution

Chicago, Nov. 1.-Two severe cleo
trical disturbances, one following the
other SO closely that in some parts Of
the country they seemed as one, have
practically held UP telephone and tele-
graph business in the United States,
Canada and Mexico for more than
tthlrty-six hours, and experts declare
that similar disturbances may recur
at frequent intervals for a week.
The cause of the disturbance lies in
some law of nature not yet known to
scientists. It is definitely known that
the aurora borealiS and the aurora
australis are in some way connected
with the storm. and the fact that
scientists have found that the aurora
and sun spots are linked together by
another unknown law. is the basis of
the assertion that the sun spots are
the cause of the present disturbance.
Powerful currents during the last
twenty-four hours have swept in cir
cuiar waves from the north pole south
thru Canada, the United States and
Mexico. The fact that the greatest
disturbance was observed in Regina.
in the Northwest Territory; Helena,
Mont; Denver and Trinidad, Col. :
Las Vegas, N. M; Ell Paso, Texas, and
Guadalajara, Mexico, and that all of
these cities are within a. few miles Of
the one hundred and fifth meridian,
seems to indicate that the course of
the current was along that line. The
disturbance was not so severe in
Mexico as in Regina, where 1t reached
it's maximum.
Radiated East and West.
From the one hundred and fifth
meridian the current radiated east
and west and electrical machinery and
instruments In every part Of the coun-
try were more or less affected by it.
In Chicago telegraph and long dis
lance telephone lines were seriously
interfered with, and wireless teleg-
raphy was almost impossible.
From points in the north and west
sern parts Of the United States come
reports Of a brilliant display of the
northern lights, and even In Chicago
above the smoke of the city faint
red glow hung. in the northern sky.

SAYS HE REFUSED
A 100000 BRIDE
New York Pastor Tells His Congre-
cation Remarkable Story Of
Attempted Bribery.

New York, Nov. Rev. DR.. Rob
ert L. Paddock, rector of the church
Of the Holy Angels, has declared that
a nigh city official recently refused a
100000 bribe to permit gambling I'M
til Jan. /. In addressing his congre-
cation he said:
Il know that a high official Of the
present administration has within
three weeks refused an offer of $780,
600 If he would allow the gambling
syndicate quietly to resume business
until Jan. 1. The offer was deliber-
ately and openely made by a man who
has always been known as a repre-
sentative Of the syndicate. He assured
the official that nothing would be done
openfy." :
Afterward the minister declared he
was not at liberty to go further into
the details of the offer.
