times. The Newtown pitcher was
considerably ratified in the first inning
and gave three men bases on balls,
which enabled them, with few time

he held the Watertowns down in good
shape. The Watertown pitcher did
good work, too, and the Newtown boys

TRIED TO CUT 4 HAND OFF
A Yonug Thief Who Wanted to Get
at Lady's Ring Worth
$1,000.

New York, Jan. 1.-Henry Goodman, -
years old, was arrested just before mid
night charged with having attempted to
cut off a young woman's hand to obtain
the diamond rings displayed on her fing-
ers. The attack was made in the full
view of scores of merry makers, including
the woman's escort. Miss May Matthews
and Miss May Lewis started out with their
escorts for an automobile ride and later
went to supper. It was after II o'clock
when the start was made for home. Soon
something went wrong with the machine
and the two men got down to examine it.
Miss Lewis held a hand bag, which con-
tanned a small amount of money. On the
fingers Of Miss Matthews left hand gilt
tered diamonds worth, it is said, fully
$1,000. = -'~. H. ga. ~ +. --.~.,.., ~
Suddenly from the crowd sprang a
young man who held in one hand knife
with a, long and exceedingly keen blade
From Miss Lewis he grabbed the ba g
she was carrying and then Selling Miss
Matthews by the fingers he drew his knife
across her knuckles,. cutting deep cash.
The young woman shrieked with fright
and pain, and her assailant, without wait
ing to make another effort to sever her
hand, brandtshed his knife in the faces
Of those who sprang to the rescue, and
dashed west along Houston street. After
q long chase he was captured but did not
surrender until beaten into subsection by
a policeman.
The general impression was that an at
tempt had been made to murder the girl,
and had it not been for the policeman into
whose hands Goodman fell he would have
Jared badly. The officer had to fight off
the pursurers and at the same time pre-
vent his prisoner from stabbing him with
the knife which had been used on Miss
Matthews hand. With much difficulty
Goodman was taken to the station-house
where he said he intended to cut of the
girls hand for the rings she wore.

ed for the liquidation of China's indebt-
edness on the basis Of the then value in
gold of the Chinese tael, which was "A
cents and 2 mills. Since then the value
Of the tael has deprecated until it is
now worth 81 cents only. To liquidate in
gold, therefore, China would be obliged
to pay to the powers an additional 13 2-10
cents on every tael, which in the aggre-
gate would deplete her resources and
leave her bankrupt The United States
government has contended that payment
should be accepted by the powers In taels
without reference to the value of this
piece Of money in gold. The fact that
the other governments concerned will not
agree to this may produce very serious
situation and reopen the question which
at one time threatened to produce the ter
ritorial disruption of the Chinese empire.

Winnipeg yesterday on thir way west to
arrange for a series Of tests in the
Rocky Mountains. -. -.
It is expected by the inventor that the
diverse electrical currents in the rari-
fed atmosphere of the high attitudes may
interfere with the successful sending of
his messages, and it is to satisfy his
mind on this account that the tests are
made In the winter time when the condi-
tions would be naturally more unfavor
able. The proceedings are being carried
out with the utmost secrecy. -.
Winnipeg is to be the halfway house
Of the system. It is understood the sta
ton will be located at Stony mountain,
an eninence twelve miles from Winni-
peg It will receive eastern messages
from Mount Royal at Montreal, and it is
the work of these experts to locate the
next western station in the Rockies.
