DEATH STOPS THREE CLOCKS.
Peculiar Coincidence When Brother or
WenIOck Down was Killed.

MIDpLHBoRo, Mass, Jan. 2l.-Weniock
Down of this place to-day told story
that might interest the Psychical Research
Society little more than two weeks ago
a brother of Mr.. Down was killed in Prov
dence by falling from a freight train upon
which he was regularly employed. The
accident happened in the evening at exactly
three minutes past o'clock, and just at
that minute in the house of the brother
living here, three clocks and watch
stopped
Mr. Down declares there is no doubt
whatever about the circumstances of the
stopping Of the timepieces. and says that
he has no explanation for the fact
On the morning Of the day OF the fatality
MIR Down went into local clothing store
TO purchase pair OF gloves. a pair OF
black gloves were handed out by the clerk
He declined at first to consider this shade
and remarked 10 the salesman that IL he
should buy black gloves there would be
death in his family within week. He
finally bought the gloves, but says that
from that moment he had forbodlng oil
evil.
The next morning Mr.. Down received
word that his brother had been killed the
night before, and then there was serious
consideration given To the stopping Of the
clocks and watch This led to inquiries
as to the time hia brother was killed, and
as nearly az the railroad men could deter
mine. it was at exactly the same moment
that the timepieces stopped ticking.

EXPECT TO GET BISHOP IN.
Sample NJ the Ellis Island Process foP
nlsooy erlng Anarchisn.

In the case Of William Bishop. the Eng.
lish boilermaker, detained for deportation,
on the allegation that he IA a dangerous
person. under Section ~ of the lmmigra-
ton laws-to wit, an anarchist Of tho VIC.
lent kind.-the Socialist Labor party has
hired Lawyer Benjamin Patterson II lol
Broadway to make an appeal TO SECRETARY
Metcalf from the decision OF the Ellis Island
board of inquiry. Mr.. Patterson said
yesterday he would show, by Bishops own
testimony that there was no reason for tho
inspectors action.
Bishop" said Mr. Patterson, when
asked his political views, said that he be-
Neyed in socialism as represented 10y tho
movement in the United States, that he
WAS against force and against all the prin-
ciples of anarchism, and that he didn't
believe in mob rule, but always in majority
rule. A transcript OF the testimony shows
that some Of the questions were put in 70
bad grammar that any intelligent man
might have nisconstrued some of them, az
Bishop did. He was asked, for inst ance,
whether he would ever do a political act
for CONDENSATION. He answered that no
would not do political act for compenss-
tom that he would do such an act volun-
tarily. Then the question was made very
involved. and the word force was inserted
in some way. Bishop thought he was
being asked the same question and gave
the same answer. The inspectors at once
held him as an anarchist. al a person who
would voluntarily use force as political act,
despite all statements he had made before as
to his peaceable views. There rs no doubt in
the world that after reading the testimony.
which will be included in my brief, the Sec
rotary will decide that Bishop Is perfectly
entitled to enter this country
Bolton Hall has offered to give bonds
that Bishop will not become public charge.

The vigilance Committees"

The talk about organizing vigilance
committee" IN New York which is coming
from a few people of irreproachabIe
morals. perhaps, but of anarchlsuc I'M
pulses, certainly, suggests that the dan
gers in this town are not confined to the
criminals with whom the police are
accustomed to deal
These anarchists cry out that vice
and crime stalk unchallenged in the
streets of New York Where;
The truth is that vice and crime are
restricted and restrained III New YORK
TO a degree unsurpassed in any other
great city in the world. The streets are
safe by day and night, IA everybody
knows. The comparatively few dlsor-
DERBY resorts that exist are conducted
quietly and without annoyance to the
respectable elements in the population.
As TO drunkenness. in no ether great
city of the world is it so infrequent as IN
New York, not merely relatively but
actually.
The respectable" anarchists however,
do not look at facts. Their whole atten-
ton is occupied in the contemplation
of their own moral grandeur. They de-
nounce the community as immoral,
wicked indecent and criminal simply
because its conduct does not tit the
standard they have set up for it, II
not for themselves
New York is too great and strong to

any gang undertakes to upset its civil

and replace it's constituted authorities
for the preservation of law. the turbulent
band will be dealt with like other law

What does the gang propose to do? Is
it going TO hang people to whom 1t
objects, after the fashion of the famous
vigilance committed of San Francisco
half century ago, in the days when
that town was sort of turbulent mining
camp not yet brought under the infiu-
ences of civilization?
While the anarchists are plotting, this
town of New York goes on undisturbed.
for every reasonable citizen knows that
If they get up their vigilance commit
tee,' and even if they should talk them
selves into an hysteria which would
infuse into them the courage to make
violent demonstrations against the quiet
and sobriety of the second city in the
world in population and the first in its
moral order, the police could easily curb
their excitement and put them into
straitjackets if necessary.

We deem II highly probable that con-
elusive evidence OF Russia's violation
Of China's territory on and after Jan.
IL will be submitted by the Toxic Gov
eminent to the neutral Powers. The
second proof of bad faith on Russia's
part to which we refer ia furnished by
the news that comes to us from Central
Asia. We learn from Tientsin that Rus
sia has notified China that unless she
ceases to discriminate against Russian
contraband in favor of Japan, Russian
forces will invade Chinese Turkestan.
simultaneously we hear that the act OF
aggression was committed before the
threat was made, the Governor OF hash-
gar complaining that the Russians have
already entered the province OF Iii, and
have practically occupied also the adj
joining province of Kashgar Iii, it will
be remembered, was occupied provi-
sionally by Russia when YAKUB Khan
was ruler OF Kashgar, but after the
last named province was recovered by
u Chinese army Iii was surrendered TO
it's rightful owner.
We hope, and we are inclined to be-
lieve, that the shrewd and energetic
course pursued at this juncture by
Secretary HAY will cause the application
of so much moral pressure to Russia
no will lead her TO renounce her scheme
Of visiting upon China the losses and
humiliation to which she herself has
been subiected at the hands Of Japan.
