THROW EGGS IN
Their DOTACE
New York Irishmen Break
Up Objectionable Theat-
rical Performance.

NEW YORK, March 27.-Two hun
dred Irishmen, whose feelings had been
outraged by the performance of NC
Fadden's Row of Flats" at the new
Star theater, rose in their seats in the
theater at a signal tonight and pelted
the performers with rotten eggs, de-
caying vegetables and fruit. The au-
dience of over 1000 was thrown into an
uproar and the actors were driven from
the stage
The affair was the elimination of a
series of attempts to bring the per-
Torrance Of this play to an end and
to stop forever the production of such
plays. The disturbing element was
scattered through-the orchestra, bal
cony and galleries of the theater, which
is one Of the largest in New York.
Some took the part of the players by
bowling their disdain at the original
disturbers. In the uproar a police
man, who was trying to preserve or
der, discovered and stamped out a
burning rag in one of the aisles.
The assertion was made tonight that
the allied Irish societies determined
to rout the actors burlesouing Irish
character and arranged the Star the
ater disturbance. Five arrests were
made.

HEARD PENNELL
THREATEN TO KILL
Burdick Inquest to Be Re-
opened to Receive Bar
tenders Testimony.

BUFFALO, March 27.-Before the
inquest into the death of Arthur r.
Pennell is begun next Monday. the in
quest into the Burdick case will be re-
opened by Judge Murphy. at the re-
quest Of District Attorney Coatsworth.
This will be done to introduce the tes-
timony of Alexander J. Quinn, former
ly bartender in the Roland house, in
New York, who says he heard Arthur
r. Pennell threaten to kill someone.
The remark was made by Quinn with
in the hearing of the cashier of the
place. The cashier also will be sub
poenaed to appear Monday.
After Quinn and the cashier have
testified, the Pennell inquest will begin.
1t has been stated that man saw Pen
nell walking about the Negres quarry
the day before the automobile took it's
fatal plunge, but the police deprecate
the value of evidence offered upon this
point.
The authorities are investigating a
story told by Della Leary a domestic
employed in a house near the Burdicl1
home. She says that about 10 o'clock
on the night preceding the murder she
saw a woman in the vacant lot ad-
Joining Burdick's. The woman was
dressed in black, Miss Leary claims,
and acted queerly.

WARNING SENT
TO THE CUBANS
Slightest Amendmentto Rec
iprocity Treaty Would
Defeat 1t.

WASHINGTON, D. c., March 27.-
Secretary Hay has sent warning to
Cuba that the slightest amendment of
the reciprocity treaty by the Cuban
congress, even that which proposes TO
make its ratification conditional on the
treaty going into effect during the cur
rent calendar year, certainly would de-
feat the convention itself, since any
amendment must be submitted to the
United States senate and before that
can be done the date fixed for the final
exchange of ratifications, March 81.
will have been passed.
1t is realized here that foreign influ-
ences in Havana which will be affect
ed injuriously by the treaty are work.
Ing upon Cuban pride to defeat rati-
dcation by attaching amendments to
the treaty. 1t is believed the effort
will prove unsuccessful.

Palma had a two-hour conference to-
nay with the entire foreign relations

TWO NEGROES STEAL
DIAMONDS UNDER
CLERKS EYE
They Take $1,000 Worth of
the Precious Stones Out of
s. Jacobs & Co.'s Jewelry
Store in Broad Daylight
- Theft Discovered an
Hour Later.

Diamonds to the value of $4,000 were
stolen from the iewelry store of S.
Jacobs & Co., SIG Nicollet avenue,
Minneapolis, yesterday morning, and
Chief Conroy and the members of the
detective department are bending their
energies to apprehend the thieves.
The police have a good description
of the two men, and as they are both
negroes, the chances are they will not
escape.
Thursday evening one Of the thieves
visited the store and said he wanted
TO purchase a stud and was willing to
pay from $3.50 to 5000 for it. He looked
over number of diamonds, but finally
said he would come in with his brother
In the morning and settle on which
stone to buy.
About o'clock yesterday morning
the fellow who had looked over the
diamonds Thursday afternoon put in
an appearance. accompanied by an
other negro. The color and size of the
several stones were discussed with the
clerk, but the twain decided they would
look around the other stores before
purchasing.
After they had been gone nearly an
hour the clerk discovered that three of
the paper packages, containing $4,000
worth of unset diamonds, were miss
ing
Chief Conroy declares that the clerk
must have been very careless in show
ing the stones, and that while one of
the negroes stalled" the clerk, the
other lifted" the three packages.

PASS TWO JUDICIAL BILLS.
Rider and oleson Win Out Against
Iona Odds,

hlder and Oieson win out Against
Long Odds.
The house yesterday passed the Rider
bill for an additional judge in the Sew
enth judicial district and the bill Great
ing the new Nineteenth judicial dis
trict.
The passage of the bills mark notable
victories. The Rider bill was passed
over one of the stiffest oppositions
brought against any bill during the
present session. Representative Frank
Minnette, of Stearns county, who mar
shaled and led the opposition, has
worked day and night for several
weeks and once had the bill down for
the count.
Minnette never tagged, but the tide
turned several days ago and yester-
day on a show down there were only
twelve negative votes.
The passage of the Nineteenth dis
trict bill can be charged directly to
the persuasive powers of Representa-
tive John Oleson, of Chisago county
The same bill was introduced two
years ago and defeated instanter. The
same result was expected and freely
predicted this year until OlesOn re-
turned from long confinement at the
hospital. He went to work at the
measure, which had been nursed along
on the ragged edge, and by sheer force
and no little adroit maneuvering, pulled
through a bill which three weeks ago
was not even selling platter,

LAND BILL MAY
Be WITHDRAWN
Irish Members Nearly Cause
Government Defeat OH Vote
in Commons.

LONDON, March 27.-In the lobbies
of parliament tonight the opinion re-
garding the Irish land bill was rather
less enthusiastic. 1t was recognized to
be a measure of such compleXity that
its only chance of existence lies in the
rather doubtful possibility of all par
ties cOnsenting to accept 1t in a gen.
erOus spirit, and that an active opposi-
tion from any quarter must inevitably
wreck it. The NatiOnalists already are
displaying restiVeneSs.
Latterly they have rather consist
emily supported the government in the
division lObbies, but tonight, on a pri-
Vate members bill Of little conse-
Quence. they voted against the gov
ernment, with the result that the min
listers escaped defeat only by the mar
row majority of thirteen. Had the
IriShmen been present in their full
strength the government would have
been defeated.
This uncertain attitude of John Red
mOnd's supporters is giving the gov
eTnment great anxiety, and 1t is be-
heved that If the Irishmen show
carping spirit toward the land bill
many Unionist supporters of the gov
eTnment will counsel it's withdrawal
on the ground of it's unpopularity
among the British electors, who are al.
ready smarting under the burdens Of a
heavy war taxation.
LONDON, March 27.-The text of
the Irish land purchase bill was given
out today. 1t reveals many important
features which were not mentioned in
Mr.. Wyndham'S speech, when the bill
was introduced. All arrears of rent
due at the time of the purchase OF
land are recoverable by the land COM
mission, and not the arrears for a year
only as previously cabled. The land
commissioners, however. are given
power, in special cases, to remit part
or all of the arrears.
The commissioners are not permit
ted TO purchase estate which are not
mainly agricultural or pastoral. In the
cases of untenanted estates purchased
by the commissioners, they are en-
powered to execute the necessary
work of improvement, which tremen-
dously enlargeS the scope Of the COM
missions expenditure. The commits
sion is empowered to declare sub.
tenants to be tenants of any holding oc-
cupied by them, which will vastly ben
eft hundreds.
Fishing, shooting and mineral rights
will be vested in the commissioners
When an estate is purchased, and can
be disposed of as the commissioners
decide The commissioners are also
empowered to determine boundary and
other disputes between the proprietors
of holdings under the bill.
The commission has the first CLAIM,
TO purchase bankrupt estates and can
resell them to tenants or use portions
OF them for the repatriation of evicted
tenants. The latter point is regarded
one of the most vital features of the
bill

condition regarding the limit of time
in which the reciprocity treaty is to be-
come effective. The minority, however,
persisted in its opposition.
Three separate reports on the treaty
were presented to the senate this after
noon by the foreign relations commit
tee. One, signed by the chairman,
SenOr Bustamente, the president of the
senate, SenOr Capote, and by Senator
Dolz, recommended the approval of all
the amendments adopted by the Unite1
States senate. Senator Zayas pre-
sented a report against ratification on
account of the action of the United
States senate in cOnfining the 90 per
cent reduction on the duty on Cuban
sugar TO the basis of the tariff rates
in the law of 1897. Senor Tamayo
submitted the third and adverse re-
port upon all the amendments. Both
the minority reports We're rejected by
the senate. The majority report will
be discussed tomorrow and it is eX-
pected that it will be approved by
small majority. It's provision requir-
ing the adoption of the treaty by the
United States congress before Dec. 1,
however, is generally believed to be
fatal to the treaty.

DECORATIONS WILL BE AMPLE.
Roosevelt Reception Committee viii
Not Be Hampered.


The house yesterday for half hour
played horse with proposition involv-
ing decoration of the chamber for the
reception of President Roosevelt and
then very sensibly eXpunged the whole
proceedings from the records.
The argument arose over the dues-
ton of spending 800 under the direc-
uon or the reception committee for dec
orauons. Some objection was raised
on the ground that the president would
not care for decorations. Others in
sisted that the flag must be shown
anyhow, and still others thought it 2
measy shame that the committee
should be restricted to 800 in a matter
OF so much consequence as the receD-
tlon of the president of the United
States
In the end 1t was a member of the
Democratic minority who called the
house to its senses. The Question came
to vote and was slowly but surely be-
Ing beaten. when Mr.. O'Laughlin.
Democrat, voted a ringing AYE" and
asked the Republicans if they did not
nave at least 800 worth of apprecia-
ton for the president. OF course the
thought of sighting the president by
their chickering's had never occurred to
one of the wranglers
1t was just one of the little Incl
dents which indicate the argumentative
disposition of the present house. The
attention Of the members called to the
situation, as it might be viewed from
the outside, the affirmative vote was
made unanimous and the records order
ed eXpunged. The committee win now
have carte blanche.

were accounted for. but which Johnson
held to be none of the states busi-

Nyquist's Boiler Inspection Bill Is UP
to the Governor.

The Nyquist boiler inspection bill
only awaits the signature of the gov
ernor to become law. The senate
amendments were yesterday concurred
in by the house and the bill passed.
The passage of the bill was not ac-
compl;shed, however, without a fight.
w. A. Nolan, Mower county, moved not
to concur In the senate amendments
and asked for a committee on confer
ence, as he wished the measure so
amended that it would not go into
effect until 1905. That depression gave
Nyquist another opportunity to roast
the present system and district inspec-
tors.
The house refused to grant con-
ference committee and afterward with
practical unanimity accepted the SEN
ate amendments which makes the to-
tai number of inspectors fifty three
instead of sixty-three, as originally
drawn. The change is made in Ram
sey, Hennepin and st. Louis counties,
where, instead of having an inspector
for each senatorial district, one inspec-
tor will have the entire county in each
case.
