John Hook Believed by the
Police to Have Murdered
Ten Women and to Have
Been Married Many Times
NOW BEING SOUGHT
BY THE OFFICERS
Authorities Also Hold the
Opinion That He Was Jan
it0r of 'H0lmes Castle"
of Tragic Recollection
Special Dispatch to The cali.

CHICAGO, Jan. 22..That John Hook,
accused by Mrs. Emelie Fischer Hook
of poisoning her sister two days before
marrying herself, was janitor of the
old Holmes Castle" in which so many
women were murdered, and that he has
profited so well by the training of his
employer, H. H. Holmes, who was
hanged in Philadelphia, that he has
already murdered ten women, is the
belief of the police after to-day's de-
velopments.
The last link in the chain Of evil
dence. that is being welded, is state
ment from Mrs. Anna Hendrickson of
Englewood, that she believes she was
married to Hook year ago. Mrs.
Hendrickson told the police to-day that
a man answering Hooks description
married her in Hammond, Ind, and
five weeks later deserted her, taking
with him $500. belonging to her.
The story told by Mrs. Hendrickson
seemed so important to the police that
to-day two detectives accompanied her
to the cottage where Mrs. Marie
Walcker Hook died. Here a shoe of
peculiar formation, worn by Hook ow-
ing, it is said, to large bunion on his
foot, was found. THE man who mar
ried me under the name of Hendrick-
son used to wear just such a shoe"
said Mrs. Hendrickson.
The police refuse to reveal the wom-
ans address, but she is being kept in
hiding until her story is thoroughly in
vestigated.
Captain Madden of the Englewood
station has detailed Lieutenant Storen
on the case, and it is believed that
Hook will be captured in a few hours,
as the police are fairly sure of his
hiding place.
Late to-day another woman ap-
peared and told the police of having
been married to Hook. She is Mrs.
Schmidt, who claims to have been mar
ried in 1904, and deserted by her hus-
band three weeks later. Lieutenant
sStoren said tonight that he believed
Hook to- be the former associate of the
notorious Holmes.
Il believe it possible that this man
Hook was the janitor of Holmes
Castle said Lieutenant Storen. He
answers the description Of the janitor
who disappeared after testifying in be-
half of Holmes. Another thing that
makes me believe as do is that Hook
was seen to-day in a barber shop at
70S Sixty third street. This is the old
Holmes Castle in which so many
women were said to have been mur-
dered by Holmes
Police Inspector Shippy said to-day
that he is in possession of evidence,
which causes him to believe that Hook
had murdered at least ten women.

EUROPE BELIEVES REVOLUTIONARY
MOVEMENT HAS BUT BEGUN.
GOVERNMENT NOW REALIZES
TEMPER OF THE POPIHACE

LONDON, Jan. 23.-Such phrases as
these, extracted from editorial articles
in the London morning newspapers, in
dicate the opinion held here of yester-
days events at st. Petersburg:
Revolt has been quelled, but revolu-
ton begun
THE bureaucracy has declared its
policy; 1t is the policy of Blagovest-
chenk-massacre."
THE inevitable reaction has begun,
and with 1t a new chapter in Russia 8
history and probably also in the his
tory of Europe and Asia"
The revolutionary movement in
Russia has received it's baptism of
blood, its crown of martyrdom."
is there Mirabeau or even a Dan
ton in Russia to-day?"
"A very grave responsibility lies to-
day at the door of the Car, who failed
to grasp his unique opportunity"
The Little Father has become the
murderer of his people, and it remains
with him to save the country from dis
aSter. Even at the eleventh hour he
may do SO. but only by recognizing
that autocracy has gone forever
1t is pointed out that the fate of Rus
sia does not depend upon the people of
ST. Petersburg alone, but on the masses
y,
sidered that the events @of recent
months connected with the agitation
for constitutional reform sufficiently
attest the peoples temper.
Some of the special dispatches from
st. Petersburg this morning comment
upon the unexpectedly determined at
titude displayed by the Russian work
men yesterday as revealing a new
phase in the character of the patient
masses.
Many special correspondents give ex-
travagant reports. For instance, the
correspondent Of the Daily Mail says
that 10000 people from Kolpino were
met at the Moscow arch, on the con-
fines of st. Petersburg, with six vol
leys and that 1000 fell dead and 1900
wounded. Other correspondents state
that the workmen have proclaimed
their intention to attack private prop
erty and that Minister of the Interior
Sviatopolk- Mirsky has consented to
receive a deputation OF workmen to-
day. While many estimate the casual
ties at anywhere near 1000 killed and
wounded, there is everywhere conclu-
sive evidence of the impossibility Of
yet estimating with any degree of ex-
actitude.

DRUNKEN BRAWL
ENDS IN DEATH
Giuseppe Brgardo Is Shot
Down on Powell Street by
Mob of Enraged Pursuers

A drunken brawl in the barber shop
of Pietro Rails, Francisco and Mason
streets, shortly after midnight this
morning, ended only after Giuseppe
Brogardo, an Italian fisherman, was
shot to death by the bullets from sew
eral of the men who were mixed up in
the free fight. Wentz Brossini, Antoni
Lapoli and the proprietor of the shop
were arrested by the police and held
pending an investigation.
Brogardo, in company with a large
party of friends, had been in the barber
shop drinking heavily all day. A row
started at midnight and the party re-
paired to the street to fight it out. Sew
eral attacked Brogardo, according to
the stories of eye-witnesses, and he
drew a revolver to protect himself,
firing two shots.
At the same time several others of
the party also drew weapons and
opened fire on the fisherman. He fed
down Powell street, but at the corner
of Vandewater street fell. His pur-
suers kept on, firing as they ran, and
the wounded man picked himself up
and ran along Vandewater street to
Mason, turning into the latter street.
BY this time his pursuers were close
upon him and he had gone but few
yards when ne feil dead, pierced In the
back by two more bullets. His pur-
suers Immediately fed. Policeman
F'ennell, attracted by the shooting,
hastened to the scene and soon after
arrested Brossini. The latter threw
away a revolver containing five empty
chambers.
The proprietor of the shop and La
poll were caught soon after by Fennell.
They say they know nothing about the
shooting, but the police think they are
aware of who fired the fatal shots. and
will be held till the mystery has been
solved.
The dead man was known as Joe the
Fisherman" and was a prominent fig
ure for years; along the water front.
Lapoli is wrestler of some note and
popular in the Italian colony. Detec-
tives Braig and Thomas Gibson have
been detailed on the case and several
arrests will follow to-day.

Claims to United States
Special Dispatch to Tn. cali.

CALL BUREAU, POST BUILDING
WASHINGTON, Jan. 22.-Revolutions
are expected to become things of the
past in Santo Domingo, now that the
United States has arranged to take
control of the administration Of the
customs service of the black republic.
The plan is simply to put Santo Domin-
go on a frugal allowance for its rum
ming expenses and to turn the rest OF
the revenues to the payment of it's for
eign debt.
European powers are now expected to
present their complaints to the United
States before they attempt to chastise
American republics which prove dere-
lict in their obligations. Expeditions
of warships by European powers for
the purpose of soaring these weak re-
publics into Immediately paying ex-
tortionate indemnities for real or slight
wrongs will probably no longer be
tolerated. Germany has twice tried
the patience of the United States by
such tactics in Santo Domingo and
Bayti. The latter's finances are not
in good shape, but they have not
reached the tangle Santo Domingo
finds itself in to-day.
The State Department to-day,
through Assistant Secretary Eoomis.
issued a memorandum concerning the
action taken in Santo Domingo Loomis
is really the engineer of this bit Of
diplomacy. He visited Santo Domingo
over a year ago to devise some way Of
curing the worst sore spot in the west
ern hemisphere, which, in state bor-
dering on anarchy. has been q stand
ing menace to the Monroe Doctrine be-
cause Of the constant irritation pro-
vided for the European powers.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 22.--News of the

CALL BUREAU, POST BUILDING,
WASHINGTON, Jan. 22.-"This COM
mission will beyond any doubt report
to the Attorney General next week that
the Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe Rail-
road has been guilty of what appears
to be a willful violation of the Elkins
law. This report will be accompanied
by draft of the evidence taken by the
commission and in view of this action,
/ do not see how the Department of
Justice can refrain from instituting
prosecutions against the railroad"
This statement was made to-day by
member of the Interstate Commerce
Commission. The prosecution of the
Santa Fe Railroad by the Government
will be most embarrassing to Secretary
of the Navy Morton, who was executive
officer of that corporation during the
time when the alleged rebates were
given.
THE commission has ended its in
vestigation of this matter" said the
commissioner, "and is now engaged in
preparing a statement for the Attorney
General. This will be ready for trans
initial next week. Our last hearing
was on December 49, but President
Ripley of the Santa Fe asked for
subsequent hearing, and the case was
held open until January 16. A few
days before that date he Cancelled his
request.
THE fact that a member of the Cabi-
net may become involved makes no
difference to the commission. While
1 have not talked with the President,
1 feel sure that he would not care to
interfere one way or the other. The
punishment cannot be less than a fine
of $1,000 nor more than $4,000 for each
offense. If each shipment in which
rebate was allowed constitutes a sep
arate offense, the total fine to which
the Santa Fe is liable will run up into
hundreds of thousands of dollars"
Attorney General Moody may differ

Commerce Commission regarding the
findings after a review of the testi-
