KILLS SELF AND BABE.
Mrs. William Greenfield Fulfills
Threat to Suicide.

Des Moines, March 19.-Mrs. Will
liam Greenfield, 637 West Tenth
street, killed her 1-year-old girl and
committed suicide yesterday morning
by turning on the gas in her home,
closing tight the doors and windows,
and deliberately allowing herself and
child to pass into fatal sleep.
The husband, who made the terrible
discovery, is almost frantic and his
friends feared that he would commit
suicide last night.
When the husband. who is a shoe
maker, left home at 7 o'clock in the
morning, there rung in his ears the
wife's declaration that when he re-
armed he would find her dead, but he
thought it an idle threat. At 10 o'clock
she took her three daughters, aged 9,
and 5 years, to the home of neigh
Dor, saying that she wished to make
a trip down town. With her babe in
her arms she returned home, and
made the interior of the house as
nearly alright as possible. Upon the
floor in the kitchen she made soft
pallet and placed her babe on it. Then
she turned open the gas jet used to
light the room, opened wide the jets
of the gas range, and lay down at the
side of her babe.
The husband found them side by
side, stiff and cold in death when he
returned from work at 6 o'clock in the
evening The husband says his wife
might have been needlessly jealous OF

RUSSIAN SHIPS ARE GONE.

Toxic. March 16.-It is strongly be-
lieyed here that the Russian heet
|. abandoned Port Arthur after the
fourth attack was made upon it by the
Japanese fleet and is endeavoring to
reach Valdivostok.
Confirmation of this movement is
not obtainable from any reliable
source, but recent scouting in the vi
cinity of Port Arthur has failed TO re-
veal the presence of any Russian war
ships. 1t seems logical enough that
the Russians should attempt dash
for Vladivostok, where it is possible
to dock larger ships, effect a junction
with their armored cruiser squadron
and secure a base for operations, whine
possessing adequate land defenses.
The hopelessness of continuing at
Port Arthur Is manifest, while a dash
for Vladivostok might succeed. con-
trary to the opinion previously ex-
pressed.
Vice Admiral Togo is unwilling to
run the risk of dividing his battleship
squadron and continues to operate the
six battleships together. II the Rus
slams should make an attempt to reach

try a dash through the Corean straits

Washington, March by the &C.

RUSSIAN LOSS WAS HEAVY.
Many Men Killed and Vessels Injured
at Port Arthur.

Shanghai, March 1S.-Three Nor
wegian steamers-the Brand, Argo
and Sierstate, released a few days
ago by the authorities at Port Arthur,
have arrived. The captains, who
were put under oath by the Rus
slams to reveal nothing they saw, re-
fuse to speak of affairs at Port Ar
thur, but the correspondent asserts
that the members of the crew willing
ly told what they knew. During the
last bombardment, last Sunday, the
Argo lay alongside the battleship Ret
visan in the harbOr and one OF the
Norwegians confirmed previous re-
ports to the effect that Japanese shell
fell on the Retyisan's dock, where 1T
exploded, killing fourteen officers and
men. Many inhabitants attempted to
construct rude bomb-proof shelters In
the new part of the town. One she'll
fell among a crowd of sight seers, who
gathered at a point Of vantage and
were gazing out t. sea at the attack
ing fleet. The shell killed twenty
five. Three government clerks were
killed while hurrying from the admir-
ais office. A cruiser lying at anchor,
d .
probably the Diana, was struck on the
water line and set on fire. The sailors
declare that eighty persons on board
persisted. The supply of food in Port
Arthur is still sufficient for the needs
of the garrison, but it is entirely under
the control of the military authorities
who issue daily rations. The Nor
wegians insist that when they left the
Russian fleet had sailed with the view
of making a dash for Vladivostok. 1t
is possible, however, that the vessels
had merely gone on another scouting
expedition. There remained In the
harbor beside the disabled warships,
only the volunteer fleet steamer ka-
san, four smaller Russian merchant
men, one whaler and the Russian hos
pital ship Mongolia, which had been
struck by shells, killing half dozen
men

COTTON KING SUSPENDS.
Could Not Keep Up the Price Any
Longer.

New York, March 19.-The suspen.
sion of Daniel J. Sully & Co., the sen.
ior member of which is Daniel J. Sully
the operator whose dealings in and
manipulation of the cotton market
have been the sensation of the specu
lative world for several years, was
announced on the cotton exchange
yesterday. This announcement came
at the close of long decline in the
price of future contracts. Some weeks
ago on heavy buying, believed to have
been more of a manipulative than
OF an investment character, the price
for future delivery of the staple was
pushed above the 17-cent mark, and
predictions were made by those in
charge of the bull campaign that the
twenty cent mark would be reached
and passed. Those predictions, how
ever were never realized and when the
bull pool tried to realize some of its
paper profits, it found that the bears
had taken the market" and in one
afternoon there was a rapid dror
in prices of more than a cent a pound,
1t was at this time that Sully gave out
a statement that he was going south
for rest and would retire from &C
tive market trading for time. He
changed his mind, however, when
the trend of prices turned and remain
ed in New York, presumably in order
to stem the tide if he could. He was
unable to do so, however, and yester
day the end came.

THE ANTI.PAss BILL.

Des Moines, March Ex-senator
Hughes anti-pass bill, which has
been disturbing the rest Of the legis-
lators, was acted upon by the judic-
larry committee yesterday, and 1t was
decided to report the same out for

The bill has received some import
ant amendments, however. An amend

to include almost everybody.

GOVERNMENT DEFEATED.
BaIfour's Party Defeated in House of
Commons.

London, March 16.-Premier Bal
four's government yesterday was de-
feated in the house of commons by
the combined liberal and nationalist
vote. This reverse was due to the
prohibition by Mr.. Wyndham, chief
secretary for Ireland, on the teaching
of Gaelic in the junior grades of the
Irish nationalist school. Mr.. Balfour
though defeated by a majority of
eleven on this question, does not re-
gard the vote as one of want of conf
dence and he will not resign on this
account. His determination not to re-
sign was strengthened by the fact
that shortly after the foregoing defeat
he was able to secure majority OF
twenty-five.
The failure of the government to
carry the house with it on a question
of purely administrative policy in it's
Irish department, is generally admit
ted to greatly weaken it's already
waning prestige with the country, al

He gives an entirely different version
