certain that the cause of Mrs Stan
ford's death was the result of strych-

Eyes, we are prepared to act" was
the reply. AS to who was to be placed
in prison the official would not say.
Police officers said detectives working
on the case are beginning now TO eX-
pressed doubts that Mrs Stanford was
really poisoned. It is believed that a
private detective agency of this city
will continue to shadow all suspects un-
til the results Of the work at Honolulu
clearly demonstrate that no crime was
committed.
Chinese Not Suspected.
Harry n. Morse, who has taken per-
SOndl charge of the investigation by
the private detectives since Captain
CallUndan's departure to Honolulu, de-
MED that any of the Chinese servants
in the Stanford mansion was under
surveillance. There has never been any
strong suspicion pointing to any Of the
/ Chinese who were in the house at the
time of the poisoning

meant for Miss BerneT, and that the

pending upon the result of the fighting

the Japanese have staked all in a cast
against Mukden. The imminence of the
peril on the west wing has withdrawn
attention from the operations on the
center and left, where the fighting has
been extremely heavy. and on the left.
especially where the Japanese gains
are sufficiently great to cause appre-
hension. Military critics here point out
that the japanese have put themselves
in a critical position by the extreme
extension of their lines, laying them
selves open, as they did at Lao Yang.

DISORDER IN CHICAGO.

After conference held In his office
late yestsr lay afternoon with representa-
tiyes Of the Teamsters' Onion, Mayor
Dunno, of Chicago, announced that he
had about given up hope of settling the
Montgomery Ward & Co. strike
al will hold conference Tuesday, :"
said the Mayor, "with representatives of
both sides, but | have no idea at the
present time that anything will result
from the meetings. Both sides to the
controversy seem deter mined to hold
Their ground, and there is nothing more
that can do. This settling OF a big
strike is a larger undertaking than |
thought it would prove"
The conference late Yesterday after
noon developed nothing new.
There we're numerous disturbances
Yesterday in the streets and around
freight houses. Several non-union men
on their way home we're followed and
beaten by strike sympathizers. Henry
Auten was beaten so severely with brass
knuckles that he may die.
The most serious disturbances OF the
day occurred late in the afternoon at the
intersection of State and Madison
streets. A mob numbering 1000 per-
sons gathered about State street cable
car 10 which James Jackson and Moses
Flood, colored, who had driven a wagon
to Montgomery Ward Il Co.'S store, were
riding. The two men, under guard OF
the police, had delivered load OF
cheese to Montgomery Ward & Co.. and
after returning to the place from which
they started, had boarded the car to re
turn to their homes. They had ridden
three squares when crowd gathered
around the car, and several strikers
boarded it and attacked the negroes.
Stones and sticks were hurled at the car,
and in a twinkling every window in 1t
was smashed. Two policemen rushed
into the car, and in order to protect the
colored men from the crowd, arrested
them. A riot call was sent to the
Central Police station, and it took 20
officers 80 minutes to drive away the
crowd and open the streets again to
traffic.
