DlTIoNAL MURDERS.
CREDITED WITH THIRTEEN WIVES
RELATIVES OF SIX EXPRESS BE.
LIEF THAI THEY DIED AS
RESULT OF POISON.

Chicago, Jan. 25.-Information Of
more alleged victims of the supposed
bluebeard, Johann Hoch, has been
given the police by John Frick. an EN-.
ploye of the. Nickel Plate railroad.
Frtck has reported to the police q
charge that his sister, Mrs. William
Schultz, married Hoch, who then called
himself Albert Muschburg, at Argos,
Ind, in 1900. Mrs. Schultz had child
named Nettie, then five years old.
Shortly after they arrived in Chi
cago letters ceased coming to me"
said Frick, "and am under the belief
that my sister and her little girl were
done away with. My sister had about
$500 at the time of the marriage"
Mrs. ]. H. Schwartzman of Milwau-
kee telegraphed the police that she
would arrive here during the day for
the purpose of trying to identify a pho.
tograph of Hoch as the man who mar.
ried her sister in 1899. The woman
died shortly after, leaving 1880 to her
husband.
Relatives of six of the thirteen wives
credited to Hoch have expressed be-
lief to Police Inspector Shippey that
the six women died from poison. The
list of dead and missing is as follows:
Mrs. Sarah Welker Hoch, died Jan. II,
1905; Mrs. Mary Steinbecker, died
1894; Mrs. Mary Becker, st. Louis,
died 1902; Mrs. Mary Schultz, Argos,
Ind, died 1900. child also disappeared;
Mrs. Lena Hoch, Milwaukee; Mrs.
Sophia Hoch. Milwaukee.
Acting on the theory that Hoch is
the missing janitor of the notorious H.
H. Holmes castle" the police are u.s.
ing the same methods to trace Hoch
as were used in seeking Holmes. The
officers believe Hoch to be pupil of
Holmes and that he will use the same
ruses that were employed by Holmes
to escape arrest.

All Universities and High Schools Throughout Russia Have Been Closed by Cxar's Minister

ST PETERSBURG, Nov. 11.-Mar tial law has been declared at Cron stadt. Vice Admiral Birileff, minister of marine, has left for the fortified town.
 It is announced that martial law will shortly be declared throughout Poland
 All the universities and high schools throughout Russia have been closed in- definitely by order of the minister of education.
 Representatives of all political par ties in Poland at a meeting held in the palace at Warsaw decided to send twenty leading citizens to St. Peters burg to request the emperor to grant Russian Poland full autonomy and it's own parliament. The deputation left today for the capital
 It is said that autonomy similar to that given to Finland will shortly be granted to Poland, thus settling the un- rest there.
 The dismissal of General Kaulbars, General Kleigers and other governors who permitted Hebrew batting is sig nificant and will have healthy effect on the rest.
 Stories are being industriously circu- lated that regular St. Bartholomew massacre of the Jews and Intellectuals has been planned by the Black Hun dred" of St. Petersburg tonight and Sunday.
 General Dedulin, prefect of police, has issued an order referring to the ru- mors of proposed attack on the Jews and the Intellectuals, reminding the po- lice that on them lies the responsibility for the maintenance of order and the safety of every inhabitant of the capi- tai without distinction of position, na- tionality or faith.
 By order of the cZar new force of troops has been hurried to Cronstadt, where the carnage by the mutinous crews of eleven warships, while stop ped, may be renewed at any time.
 He was informed that the mutiny had practically been suppressed and many of the mutineers arrested, but that the riotous gangs were still in a fighting mood and the situation ex- tremely critical.
 Advices received in this city are that the situation at Cronstadt is still men aclng, and the most rigid means will be adopted to keep the mobs in subjection.
 At Moscow alarming rumors are in circulation that anti-Jewish outbreaks will occur simultaneously there and at St Petersburg tomorrow. Foreign CTS and Jews have received threaten ing letters and have asked the authori- ties for protection, but thus far no step has been taken toward granting their request.

ELECTION FRAUDS.
New York Grand Jury Report Ten
 4 Indictments.

Indictments.
 NEW YORK, Nov. 11.--As the result of the evidence submitted by Attorney General Mayer the grand jury an. nounced to Recorder Goff that it would on Monday issue ten indictments against Tammany election inspectors for violation of>the inspection laws and two Indictments for assault at the polls.
 William K. Hearst in an interview stated that evidence had been collected against twelve Tammany district lead CTS. Two or three of them, MT. Hearst thought could not escape imprison. ment on the evidence obtained.
 It is said that William Randolph Hearst and many of his associates op the New York Municipal league city and county tickets are assured of cleo tion through an opinion delivered by Attorney General Julius Mayer.
 He holds that all ballots marked with cross within the circle under the scales must be counted for Hearst and his associates, except Shearn, even though on that ballot there is a cross within the circle under Jerome's em- blem-the black square.
 The attorney general contends that in obeying orders from C.. r. Murphy through Chairman Knox of the Tam many Hall law committee to throw out the ballots described election officers clearly violated the statute and that the courts will compel the votes to be counted for Hearst.
 So far as the inquiry of the Municipal league campaign. committee has pro gressed it has been discovered that at least 8,130 ballots marked as indicated were thus declared defective. ys
 Mir. Hearst has sent special mes- senger to Albany to ask the consent of Governor Higgins to have the ballot boxes placed in armories here.
