FARLEY, STRIKE BREAKER Has Just Taken a Contract to Break the Strike Now on in San
 Francisco
800 MEN HAVE GONE WEST

New York, Aug 28.-James Far ley, the strike-breaker, has, says a morning paper, contracted to break the street railway strike in San Fran cisco.
 . Two special trains loaded with strike-breakers left Jersey City at 10:30 o'clock last night on the Le- high Valley road for San Francisco. It was estimated that there were 800 men on the two trains, which had ten cars each.
 On each car were four of Farley's detectives, armed with clubs like the night sticks carried by policemen.
 Precautions were taken to keep the thing as quiet as possible. The men were brought over to Jersey City in a special ferryboat from Twenty-third street. Many of the men went without a change of cloth ing and there were indications that there was great hurry in getting the men off.
 Some of the men, it is said, had not notified their families that they were off on long trip. Arrange ments have been made by Farley, it is understood, to start another batch for San Francisco early this morn ing.

INSURGENTS ARE
 READY TO QUIT Recruiting Among Them is to Cease and Some VIII Lay Down
 Their Arms PAY 0F SOLDIERS RAISED Leader of Insurgents Arrested Some Time Ago Brought to Havana
 To-Day.

Havana, Aug 28.-Investigation shows that the statement made by Senator Dolz, leader of the moder- ate party, at the conclusion of con- ference with President Palma at mid night, to the effect that practi- cally all the insurgent leaders of consequence. except Pino Guerra, had signified their. willingness to disband their men If all were positively guar anteed immunity for their insurrec- tionary acts, was an exaggeratIon but the impression is very general today that the insurgents, with the excep- tion of Pino Guerra, will shortly lay down their arms. In the meanwhile 1t Is asserted, all recruiting will cease.
 The pay of artllerymen and rural guards has been raised. the officers getting twenty per cent increase and the privates an increase of 90 per cent.
 Congressman Carlos Mendieta, leader of the insurgents in Santa Clara, and Col Aranda, who was ar rested with Mendieta, were brought to Havana to-day.

Enlistment Suspended.

Havana, Aug 2S.-The enlistment of volunteers by the government has been suspended until the effect of President Palma's offer of amnesty to the insurgents can be determined.
 At the palace confidence is felt that the great body of rebels who have been carried away with the idea that they were to have conspicuous part in the overthrow of the Palma administration will seize the present opportunity to return to lawful pur- suits rather than jeopardize their liberty by further supporting what the government characterizes as a hopeless case.
 Senator Dolz, the moderate leader. following his conference with Presi- dent Palma, declared early to-day that with the exception of Pino Guer- ra all the insurgent leaders were pre- pared to disband their men If as- sured of immunity. Guerra Is yet to be reckoned with. If seemingly re- liable reports can be credited he has with him a formidable body of men, but his recent inactivity leaves the impression that he desires rather to make display of force than to do any serious fighting. His earlier promises to capture Pinar del Rio and then to march upon Havana, fol lowed by period of inactivity. has apparently injured his prestige among insurgents and sympathizers, who had expected him to make a bod dash against the government forces.
 President Palma's peace expres- sions of yesterday have made a good impression particularly among busi- ness men whose interests are serious ly threatened by the disturbed con dition of affairs. President Palma's son is now in the army and his daughter has become an army nurse. These enlistments have also had good effect.

BROTHER IS
 UNDER ARREST Brutal Murder Committed in New York Woman Horribly Cut and
 SIashed JACK THE RIPPER' CASE Woman Was Probably Attacked While She Was Asleep-The
 Police Are Hustling.

New York, Aug 28-Annie Moore. 50 years old, was brutally murdered in little furnished room at 6 Second street, just off the Bowery, some time between II o'clock last night and 2 o'clock this morning. The woman was horribly slashed. There was a wound in the neck under the left ear, which had severed the jugular vein; another cut ran across the right side of her neck; the breast was slashed and there was a fearful wound in the stomach. The horrible wounds recalled at once to the minds of the officers and doctors, who were called, the Jack the Ripper" mur-. ders some years ago.
 James Moore, 3S years old. bricklayer, brother-in-law of the woman, but who has been living with her for seven years, is under arrest in connecticut with the murder as suspicious person. It was Moore who notified the police at a. m. that the woman had been killed and he led the police officers Ito the house. A hurried investigation by the police showed no signs of struggle and the police concluded that the woman had been attacked in her sleep. On pillow, which lay across her face, was the imprint of a bloody hand. The victims hands were clean so that the police believe the mark must have been left by the murderer. The po- lice believe that this clew will lead to the detection and identification of the murderer. No weapon was found on the premises.
 Moore maintains that he is inno- cent. He told the police that he left the house in Second street at o'clock last night and went to the London saloon at No 239 Bowery, where he remained until o'clock this morning. Police inquiries at the saloon developed the information that Moore had been there until just be- fore 10 o'clock when he left. Lodgers in the Second street house told the police that Moore returned home at about 10 o'clock and that ne did not go out again afterwards.
 The murdered woman, before her marriage to the prisoners brother, was Annie Fitch. Moore. the prison- CT, Is in an advanced state of con- sumption. He has wife and two children living hardly stones throw from the scene of the crime.
 Three life insurance policies were found in the room. They were issued by the Prudential Go on May 1, 1906. One of them, for $275, was on the life of the woman. and made payable to the prisoner. The others were on the life of Moore, made payable to the woman.
 James Moore's son Edward, aged IS years. was arrested and techi- cally held as a witness in the Moore murder case, after his father had been examined by the police. The youth is said to have suffered from epilepsy for several days.

CLoTHIER A WINNER.
He Defeated Karl H. Behr at New
 port This Afternoon.

Newport, R. l., Aug 28.-The final round in the all-comers' tournament of the National Lawn Tennis cham pionships at the Casino was played to-day between William J. Clothier of Philadelphia and Harvard grad uate, and Karl H. Behr of New York and of Yale university. The winner will meet Beals c. Wright of Boston, the title holder, in the challenge match tomorrow.
 Behr and Clothier met four weeks ago in the finals of the Lonkwood tournament and the former won In straight sets, only to be beaten the next day by Larned. In the Nahant tournament which followed in the same week, Larned put out Clothier and then defeated Behr in a hard matca. Last Wednesday Behr turn ed the tables on Larned in the sec ond round of the present tournament in straight set contest. In looking back over these three recent events, followers of the game before the match began to-day seemed to think that Behr's chances were slightly better than Clothier's.
 William J. Clothier of Philadel- phia defeGted Karl, H. Behr of New York in the finals of the tennis cham pionship by 3 sets to 0.

CAT AND CHICK SUIT.
Famous Town Plot Affair Started Be.
 fore Judge Burpee To-day.


 The suit of Joseph and Elizabeth Muttef. 109 James street, against their neighbor, James R. Walker, for $100 damages for the death of one gray cat and injury to another, a black and white cat, and Mir Walkers counter suit for $50 for the loss of forty-nine Plymouth Rock chicks, were begun before Judge Burpee in the city court this afternoon. The court room was full of women, all in terested in the story. Mrs Mutter stated that she saw Mir Walker shoot both cats on the night of May 21, and that if he had directed his gun toward rats he would have done a great deal better than shooting her cats. The cat that is living is all ready half dead. It never got over the shock of being shot. It just limps around the yard and has re- signed from the nocturnal symphony company in which it was once a prom inent member. It has lost it's voice, has no more appetite for spring chicken and is not at all the cat 1t was. Mrs Mutter said each cat was worth at least $30. Attorney Devine, counsel for Walker. objected to this evidence, as Mrs Mutter was not an expert on cats. but he ruled it in de- spite the objections of Attorney Lynch, counsel for the Mutters.
 Two young men said they heard Walker make threats that he would shoot every cat in the neighborhood to pieces unless they let up on his chickens. He built a wire house and put a wooden roof on it, but the cats. particularly Mrs Mutter's cats. ate their way through the wire and the boards. Nothing could stop them. One night he lost forty-nine chickens and altogether he calculated his loss to be s150 in eggs and chickens. He thought that was the last straw so he got a permit from Mayor Thoms to discharge firearms in the city. The first night he went on the war path he laid out Mrs Mutter's cats, not with revolver. however. as she had testified. but with a shotgun. He considered he had furnished free lunch long enough for Mrs Matters cats.
