Philadelphia, Nov. 21.-Five of the
fourteen ice dealers who were placed
on trial in the criminal court here
yesterday on a charge of conspiracy
to raise the price of ice, today plead
ed non vult contendre, and threw
themselves upon the mercy of the
court. A plea of this character is
virtually an admission OF guilt, bu,
carries with 1t an excuse of no inten,
to break the law. They were fined
SIS and costs.
Before entering the plea, counsel
for the ice men announced to the
court that the Philadelphia Ice Ex-
change through which it was alleged
the price of ice was fixed, had been
dissolved.
Following the entering Of pleas,
District Attorney Bell asked the court
to direct a verdict of not guilty In the
cases of seven other defendants.
Henry W. Bahrenberg, president of
the Mountain Ice company, and Wal
ter Lee, local agent Of the. American
Ice company of New York. refused to
enter n nlea Of non vnlf and decided

War Department Gives Out
Note on Dismissal of Soldiers
at Ft. Reno.

Associated rreAs Ia The Evening Times.
Washington, Nov. 2l.-The war de-
partment issued the following state
ment today concerning the negro
troops ordered dismissed at Fort
Reno: In the matter of the order
discharging the enlisted men of three
companies of the Twenty infan-
try. issued by the president. appli-
cation was presented to the secretary
Of war by number of persons of
standing asking for rehearing by
the president of the ground on which
the action was taken. The secretary
telegraphed the president OF the appli-
cation and delayed the proceedings
Of discharge until the president could
indicate his wishes. The secretary
was in the mean time called out Of
town. No answer was received from
the president. The secretary on hls
return did not feel justified in further
delaying execution of the order OF dis
charge, especially in view of the fact
that the secretary then learned that
the president had fully and exhaus-
lively considered the argument against
the order. of persons who now ap-
piled for rehearing. Accordingly.
the secretary directed yesterday
Tuesday, that proceedings for dis
charge be continued, without delay"

conducted with great pomp and cere-
mony. In addition with the large re-
tinue that the Ameer brings with
with him he will have the imposing
escort of British and Indian soldiery.
Nothing will be left undone to i'm
press the young ruler with the
strength and power of Great Britain.
The young Ameer will be the more
easily impressed as he never before
has journeyed outside of his own do
main. Such was not the case with
his father. the late Abdurrahman
Khan. The latter, who died five years
ago. was a consumate politician and
for years he flirted with both Russia
and England to his own material ad-
vantage. To the day of his death he
received subsidy of more than a
half million dollars a year from the
British Indian government, with large
gifts Of artillery, rifles and ammuni-
tion to improve his military force
He spent many years of exile-before
coming to the throne-in Russian Ash
attic territory and had also visited
various parts of Europe.

ACCOUNT Of WORK
Accomplished by Bernier in
the Far North Has Been
Received.

New York, Nov. 21.--Herbert l..
Bridgman of Brooklyn, secretary of
the Peary Arctic Club, today re-
ceived from Dundee, Scotland, an &C.
count Of the work of Capt. Joseph f.
Bernier, commanding the Canadian
government steamer Arctic during
the past summer among the arctic
islands over which Canada has lately
claimed jurisdiction. The report was
taken to Dundee by Capt. Milne of
the Eclipse, the only Dundee whaler
to cross Melville bay this year, who
sent the information to Mr.. Bridg-
man.
Capt Bernier sailed from Chateau
bay, Labrador, August 3rd, sighted
Greenland August 10, entered 1.ancas-
ter sound August 10, and reached
Port Leopold, Bellot island, August
%, where to the two tons Of provisions
from Amundson's steamer Gjoa, he ad-
ded three tons from the Arctic. On
August Is, in sight of Bathurst is
land, he was beset by ice, only three
hundred yards from clear water.
drifting westard twelve miles a day.
and on August 2S he found on point
Cockburn the relics and the record
of McClintock. placed there In 1851,
which he took on board ship.
Pushing westward the Arctic en-
tered Peel sound, August 81, finding
1t impossible to land on account of
ice, though the return side of the
strait was perfectly clear. Capt Ber-
nier said: THE Northwest passage,
it seems to me. might be easily done
with a ship of this kind provisioned
for two years in case of being shipped.
II had had provisions from the de-
partment It could. in my belief, have
been accomplished"
Landing was made September 2 at
Erebus bay, where Sir John Frank
Inns monument, in bad condition, was
repaired and repainted, the Arctic de-
parting with her flag at half mast. On

Mrs. Green's chief purpose In coming
to Boston at the present time Is to
secure a tenant for a house opposite
the boarding house where she now is,
and which has long been vacant. The
house has been on the renting lists
of first one real estate dealer and then
another for two years or longer, but
1t was not rented. Mrs. Green decided
that it was time to do something. So
she turned up in Rowland street un-
announced one Sunday morning and
tore the agents notices from the doors
and windows. In their place she post
ell notice directing prospective ten
ans to call upon her across the street.
In addition to securing a tenant for
her vacant house Mrs. Green is occu-
pied with several lawsuits in Boston
But lawsuits never worry her. When
they have been disposed of she prob
ably will 60 to Texas to spend the re-
mainder of the winter. She has vast
interests in Texas, and moreover, her
son, p. H. r. Green, lives there, and

GREWSOME STORY
Girl Tells How Father Coolly
Cut Mothers Throat While
She's in Bed.

Associated Press to The Esening TimeA
Louisville, KY, Nov. 2L-The Etley
murder mystery, which has puzzled
the police of Louisville for over a
week has. 1t is thought, been cleared
by the confession of 15-year-old Anna
Etley, whose statement has resulted
in the arrest of her father, John D.
Etley, on q charge of wife murder.
David j.. Etley Of Pittsburg, brother
of the deceased. declares his faith
In Etley's innocence and maintains
that some influence has been brought
to bear on the daughter to compel
her to swear falsely against her faith
er.
Mrs. Etley was found murdered in
her bed a little over week ago.
There was no clue to the assassin,
and nothing was found which would
aid the police except bloody ak,
which was discovered In a street
about two blocks distant from the
Eley home.
Today, however. Anna Etley, the
daughter, told her story. She says
she saw her father strike her mother
with some sort of an instrument and
then, cody grasping the coil of hair
on her head. bent back her head and
cut her throat from ear to ear. The
chifd's confession, simply told. is in
part as follows:
Il was lying in my couch with the
cover almost up to my eyes. l
wasn't asleep, and saw papa come
through the room and go to the kitch-
en-. He came back and went to moth
er's bed. He looked like he was go
ing to love mother. He took hold by
the knot of mothers hair and struck
her twice. The first time he struck
mother she closed her eyes, oh. so
hard. He then took the knife In his
left hand and drew it across her
throat.
Papa then went back into the
kitchen, and guess he wiped the
knife off on one of mammals aprons.
When papa came through the room
again he said that If l said anything
about what happened he would 10 ME
In the same way.
MY mother was gasping and my
little brother was on the floor crying.
SO jumped up. took the baby from
under mother and went out to the
kitchen to wipe the blood from its
face. I put the apron father had
used In the water bucket. 1t came
out bloody and think there was
blood in the bucket before l used it,"
The motive Is not made clear.
