SUICIDE OF A CASHIER
WHO ROBBED HIS BANK
Alleged to Have Lost Between
$4,000 and $4,000 in Spec

PROTECTS BANK

NEW HAVEN. Conn.,, Dec. 15.-Asa c.
Bushnell, cashier of the Yale National
Bank, shot himself a short time before the
time for opening of the bank to-day and
died an hour and a half later. He had
used about $1,000 of the banks funds in
specializing. United States Bank Examiner
Barrows was at the bank for his regular
~semi-annual examination when the cashier
hot himself. Mr.. Bushnell had been con-
nected with the institution for twenty-one
years. !.
President f. S. Greeley Of the bank issued
the following statement: A. c. Bushnell.
our cashier. has taken his own life- II is
evident that Mr.. Bushnell has been spec
ulating in stocks TO a limited extent, and
was indebted to this bank for a small
amount, which is amply covered by surety
bonds. United States bank officials are now
engaged in making an examination"
From a reliable source it was learned
that the banks securities have been found
by Bank Examiner Barrows to be intact,
and that the books apparently show the
misappropriation of funds by the cashier
to be less than $4,000. probably about
Sl2,0 900.

PLOT TO ASSASS|NATE
MINISTER v. F. POWELL
Disclosure Concerning Inside Pol

Incumbent Official.
JIMINEZ ALSO TO DIE

NEW YORK, Dec. 15.-An alleged plot to
assassinate William F. Powell. United
States minister to Hayti, and charge d. af-
fairs at Port au Prince, Santo Domingo,
mas been disclosed in a communication
from an official of the present Dominican
government to a in this
city, who formerly was an official under
Wos y Gil, the recently deposed> president
of the republic.
The letter states hat the plot had been
SO arranged that ex-President Jiminez, I'M
der whose leadership Wos Y Gil was over
thrown, should be killed at about the same
time. The plot to aSsassinate Minister
Powell, IL was asserted, was conceived be-
cause of his opposition to plans of certain
officials. The plan, as reported, was to let
two or three men get into a fight on a
street along which Mr.. Powell was passing.
plotters should engage, and 1t would be an
easy matter TO kill the American by acci-
dent"
With regard to Jiminez, the writer as
serts, he was to be the victim of plain as
sassination, and that already two unsuc-
cessful attacks have been made on his per-
son. While the plot against Minister Pow
ell is said by the author of the letter to
have been abandoned because of a strong
stand taken by a member of the Cabinet,
it is said the American diplomat is being
carefully guarded whenever he goes out.

DAREDEVIL SON AND HEIR
Forces the Crown Prince to Stay in
His Room for Racing in a
S~teeplechase.
KAISER'S HEALTH GOOD

BERLIN, Dec. 15.-Crown Prince Fred
erick William was required by his father
TO remain in his room for three days, for
having raced a steeplechase, against the
Emperor's wish. The race took place near
Potsdam, three or four weeks ago. The
Crown Prince is a ventursome rider and
had been reprimanded by the Emperor for
riding up the steps of the Saus SQUEEZE pal
ace at the head of the second company of
the first regiment of the guards, of which
regiment he had recently been appointed
colonel a few days before, on which occa-
sion. it is reported, the Emperor said he
must not e~ndanger his life by steeple-
chasing. The Prince. while at Bonnie Uni
versity, was noted for driving tandem at
full speed to see how close he could cut
corners.
A statement published in the London
Daily News this morning that it had learned
from well-informed quarters that a second
operation had been performed on Emperor
Williams throat and that a third opera
ton may be necessary, is erroneous. Fur
Their matter taken from the wound was sub
mitted TO twenty-five of the greatest special
lists in internal growths, every one of
whom reported il to be benignant.

MOTHER AND BABE FOUND
STARVING IN COLD HOME
Salvation Army Helps Family
with No Food and No Money
to Buy Coal.
MERCURY RISES TO-DAY

With twin babies about a year old and
two other small children not more than
two or three years old, with no food and
no money to buy food, and a meager fire,
scarce adequate TO keep the family from
freezing in the bitter cold weather, Mrs.
Philips, 64 West Pearl street, was helped
by the Salvation Army yesterday after her
case had been reported to the police.
The husband and father is out of work,
and the prospects of the family were pitt
full until help came in the person OF the
men and women in the blue and red uni
forms of the Salvation Army, who brought
food, clothing and fuel.
Other calls are pouring into the army
headquarters in increasing numbers. one
of the most pitiful cases that was called TO
their attention yesterday was the case of
Mrs. Guinip, 10 North West street, an old
woman who is almost helpless with rheu-
matism, and had absolutely no fire and no
food. When the army officials called at her
home she was in a neighbours home, bor-
rowing warmth from her fire.
Other charity organizations report corre-
spending restitution coming to their atten-
ton. Relief from the extremity of the suf-
fering Is promised by the weather forecast
for Wednesday. which promises a rising
temperature.

EDITOR SPADON| SUES
HEAD OF THE JESU|TS
Saws Father Martin Promised Pay
for Opposing Americanizatlon
of Catholic Church.
BLACKMAIL IS ALLEGED

ROME, Dec. 15.-Editor Spadoni, of the
Roman Herald, caused a summons to be
issued to-day against Father Martin, gen.
eral of the Society of Jesus, for the
purpose of obtaining compensation, with
costs. alleged to be due the editor for work
done by agreement with Father Martin in
the propaganda against the Americanization
of the Catholic Church in the United
States.
The editor says that Father Martin prom
Used to obtain from Pope Leo an encyclical
condemning this Americanism and recalling
Archbishop Ireland to due obedience to the
Holy See, while at the same time Spadoni
was to arouse public opinion through the
paper which he then published. and which
was called the True Catholic American, is
sued in both English and Italian. Begin
ming in February, 1893. several thousand
copies of this paper were sent TO the United
States. Spadoni asserts that owing to his
writings and the influence of his paper
Americanism in the church had disappeared
to a considerable extent, and he called for
the alleged promised compensation, not re-
ceiving which he had recourse to- the law
courts. The case will be argued Dec. Is.
Father Martin says Editor Spadonis al
legation is false, and that the case is one
of blackmail. He said he would not appear
In court, but would leave the matter alto
gether in the hands of his lawyer.

ARRESTED ONCE BEFORE

81 am a Mason worked so well with Will
lam Hollis, who says he lives in Port HUI

which to touch the hearts of local Masons
for sympathy and their purses for the
wherewith to buy three good meals and a

found that. Hollis was not a Mason, and
that they had been worked, they set the
mills of justice to grinding, and Hollis was
arrested yesterday by Detectives Asch and
Manning on the charge of lettering.
Hollis. who is known as the prince or
Tramps," is alleged to have worked the
same old game in a number of places, and,
through the medium of a hard luck story,
some signs and passwords, to have secured
money, clothes and lodging for a time, when
he would pass on to greener fields and pas
lures new. 1t is stated that all of the larger

LABOR d ASK
PASSAGE OF MEASURES
Confer with Speaker Cannon, Mr..
Gardner and Senators Frye
and McComas.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 15.-The executive
council of the American Federation Of
Labor held conferences to-day with Speaker
Cannon and Mr.. Gardner, chairman of the
House committee on labor. discussing meas
ures in which the labor representatives are
interested. They requested consideration Of
the eight-hour bill and the prison labor
anti-injunction bills. A conference was also
held with President Pro Tenn. Frye and
Senator McComas, chairman of the Senate
committee on labor.
Speaker Cannon informed his visitors he
had no doubt they would be given a full
and free hearing on the bills in which they
are interested and said it would be his duty
as well as his pleasure to cooperate with
them to secure fair hearing and a full dis
cussion of all legislation they might sug-
gest. The speaker told his visitors that
they would find the House organized for the
full and free discussion of all questions
touching the interests of the American peo-
pie, without regard to class distinction, and
that the House could not afford to try to
secure legislation for one class to the det-
riment of another, or for one class to the
detriment of labor. Legislation, he said,
should be for the benefit of the whole peo-
pie. The speaker assured the members of
the executive council that he was not op-
posed to organized labor, but that on the
contrary he considered Ii his duty and
pleasure to cooperate and secure the full
est and freest consideration Of the legisla-
ton suggested.
