 of Police.

Boston, September 4.-In a sudden fit of insanity today Mrs. Minnie Mc- Kenzie tried to kill her husband at her home in East Boston, then shot and fa- tally wounded Patrolman Aldridge M. StWrdiyant, and finally barricaded her self in the front room of her tenement, where she remained for more than five hours. standing off squad of ten po- licemen. She was finally captured by the use of a germicide injected through holes In the baFricaded door.
 When overcome by the fumes she was found to be armed with two large revolvers and had a large amount of ammunition. During the barricade. she fired more than fifty shots, many going into A crowd of five thousand, which had gathered about the house.
 Mrs. Mckenzie Is thirty-four years old. and of powerful frame. She be- came violently insane after the dinner hour and seized a revolver of heavy calibre. shooting at her husband, but none of the shots took effect. Mir.

 A hurry call was sent to the scere with orders to capture the woman without inturing her. The police made repeated attempts to dislodge her, but every sound of a voice or footstep in the hall was the signal for a fusilade of shots from the front room, the bull lets passing through the barricade in the door. A bullet struck Patrolman John Burke, but the wound is not se- rious.
 At intervals the woman threw open a street window and fired into the crowd on the street, but so far as known none of the onlookers was in jured.
 At nine o'clock tonight a quantity of germicide was forced into the room and a few minutes later the frenzied woman succumbed to the fumes.

 HONOR.

The interior of the building was a veritable forest, surrounding the main audience space. canopted with white cloth and arched with large electrical crosses and other emblems of the or der.
 The Knights who arrived after dark tonight received the impression that the city was afiame. The warships in the harbor were strung with lights and the white beams of their search lights crossed the sky. The Ferry building, with its tower pictured out in green ince ndescents and resplendent with a S, crowned the entrance of an electric highway which extended up Market Street for a distance of two miles, and which was formed of colonnades, col umns and arches of glowing bulbs. All along the line Masonic emblems and American flags hung from the build ing. The Masonic Temple was ablaze with lights and Templar insignia and emblems illuminated its walls.

AXE AIDS THE MASS
PITTsBURG PRIEST HEws HIS WAY
 INTO CHURCH.
Rev. Father Beknyac's Parishioners Attempt to Mob Him, But He Is Protected by Fifty
 Policemen.

Pittsburg, Pa.. Sept 4.--After hewing his way into the church with an axe. the Rev. Father Bekavac of St. Nich- olas Crotian Roman Catholic Church, Allegheny, held early mass today while a large number of his former congre- gation awaited him outside and made frantic efforts to assault him at the conclusion of the ceremony. He was saved from violence only by the pro- lection of fifty policemen.
 When Father BekaFac reached the church. he found all the doors locked and nailed fast. Returning to his resi- dence, he secured an axe and applied 1t to the doors while the police aided him to force 1t down under the weight of their bodies.
 Excitement by this time had reached a high pitch, and a mob of probably 800 men and women had gathered to prevent services being held.
 About fifty of Father Bekavac's ad- herents attended the mass. At the con clusion of the ceremony, the police awaited Father Bekavac to escort him to the parish house. At this stage the mob became bOlder, and spurred on by one or two women leaders, ascended the stone steps to the church door, and as the priest appeared. shouted threats of vengeance, while women and men alike called upon their followers to attack him.
 The police surrounded the priest and with their clubs, fought back the crowd, finally landing their charge safely in the parish house. Eight nf the mob leaders. three of whom are women. were taken to the central sta- tion in a patrol wagon.
 St. Nicholas Church has been the scene of factional disturbances for several months and the dissenters ds. manded the removal of Father Bekavac, charging misappropriation of funds. Bishop Phelan upheld the priest and ordered him to hold services today in spite of the protests.

COMBS SPEAKS AT AUxERRE.
Not His Purpose to Rehabilitate the
 Destroyed COncOrdat.

Auxerre. France, Sept. 4.-Premier Combs made an important speech here today. In retracing the policy of the government during the last two years, he claimed that the municipal and de- partmental elections had given full evidence that 1t was approved by the country.
 Regarding the future, the premier said that he would continue to carry out his policy for national sovereignty. The religious power has openly torn up the concordat and 1t Is not his in tention to try to amend 1t.
 The risk of France losing her posi- ton as the protector of Eastern Cath olics, the premier said. was a wholly insignificant motive for foregoing the separation of church and state which circumstances had obliged him to in- scribe on his program alongside the re- duction of military service. the income tax and workmen's pensions.
 The premier was heartily applauded.

GREAT LOSS
 IS INFLICTED Japanese Fall On the Rus
 sian Rear. MOVEMENTS CONCEALED Kur0ki'S Men Hide in the Chi
 neSe Corn. Tactics Employed With Terrible Re- suits Against General Orlon's Mixed Command--Onc Regi-
 ment Loses I,500 Men.

St. Petersburg. Sept. 4.--General Ku- ropatkin. in a report dated Saturday, September 3, p. m., says that the greater part of his army. including General Stakelberg's force, which suc- ceeded in rejoining the main force, Is now south of Yentai mines, about ten miles from Liaoyang.
 The troops which were left at Liao- yang and the surrounding positions to cover the retreat crossed the Taitse River Saturday and occupied the right bank of the river.
 The report says that after the decis- i've engagement between the armies of General Kuropatkin and General Ku- roki, large numbers of Japanese. per- fectly concealed in the Chinese corn and grass. stealthily crept up to the rear of the Russians and inflicted heavy losses.
 These same tactics have previously been adopted with terrible results against Major General Orloff's mixed detachment. which was assailed in the midst of the grass with a completely unexpected fire. A panic ensued and one regiment alone lost 1,5o0 men, half of its total strength.

 Sir Thomas said that difficulty had arisen owing to the fact that MT. Wat son was unable to undertake the jour ney to the United States. He said he told the designer that he would be satisfied with any deputy he would nominate to accompany the boat, but Mir. Watson said he would design no boat unless he was able to accompany 1t himself.

WEATHER.

t,rninr movement against the Russian Jeff nothing further concerning the ha file of Liayoang has reached Tokio today. Neither the number of Rus slams who succeeded in escaping north nor the number encompassed by Gen era1 Kurokrs turning movement Is known here.
 The severity of the Russian defeat hinges largely on Kuroki's movement. If successful, the number of Russian prisoners will be large. The meagre reports received indicate that the sol. diers of both armies went to the limit of human endurance. and the suffer ing was terrible. It was impossible constantly to supply them with food and water, and the men have fought for days past starving and parched with thirst
 Although the details are lacking, the duration of the fighting, the numbers engaged and the losses so far reported indicate that Liaoyang will prove to be one of the greatest battles of his. tory.
 The dispatch received from Field Marshal oyama announcing the fall ot Liaoyang had the effect of cheering all the subjects of the Mikado. Throughout the rejoieings here following the ear- Her successes of Japanese arms at Liaoyang. the more thoughtful persons feared the results of the exposure to which the right wing of General Kuro- kis army was subjected, and 1t was held possible that the strength of the Liaoyang Notifications would permit the withdrawal of the bulk of the Russian forces there.
 Even now there Is doubt concerning the number of Russians who have es- capped, but there is no doubt about the character of the victory at Liaoyang.
 Tokio is brilliantly illuminated to- night and joyful crowds are parading the streets cheering the exploits of Marshal oyama and Generals Oku and Nodzu.
