oUTcAsT DIES NEAR OLD HOME.
Once Prosperous Painter Found Dead
in the Street.

NEW YORK, March 11.-Under the win
dows Of the home where he had once lived
in comparative prosperity Matthias Tobin.
sixty-eight years old and for ten years an
outcast, with no permanent abode, fell ex-
hausted yesterday, clasping in his hand the
nrst dollar he had earned in month. Ten
minutes later he died in the rear room of a
saloon into which he had been carried. No
friends remain from the days Of Tobin's
prosperity, and his body now is at the city
morgue awaiting either burial in Potter's
neid or the knives of surgeons on q dis
secting table.
robin had been a character in the neigh
borhood of West 10th street and 9th ave
nue. since the death of his wife, ten years
ago; when ne gave up his work as a painter
and became an habitue of cheap saloons,
dependent for his living on odd Jobs on
Ice wagons. In livery stables and saloons
exposure had recently pressed heavily on
obtain work of any kind. After weeks Of
1dleness, during which he had made his
bed In livery stable stalls and found his
1ood at free lunch counters, he obtained
streets.
Without food. thinly clad and weak from
age, Tobin worked all day with younger
and stronger men. At night he lined up
with the others to cash his pay ticket. The
payhaster came late, the fine was long and
Tobin was near the rear end of the line
AS the men moved forward Tobin moved
up. While he was still long way from
the paymaster he apparently felt his
strength deserving him and told his neigh
bors In line that he could not stand much
longer. For 81 he sold his pay check that
called for 81 to Spectator and with the
coin clasped in his hand he staggered away.
At $50 West 18th street he fell from ex-
haustion. The house at 359 is a we'll kept
apartment building, where Tobin had lived
before his wife died and when he was
earning good wages as a painter
There he was found at 2 o'clock yes
terday morning. None of the occupants of
the building knew the gaunt and aged
man. He was carried into the rear room
OF saloon at 1863 West 18th street and an
ambulance was summoned. The ambulance
surgeon said Tobin had been dead for sew
eral minutes.

FOR WORLDS PEACE.
Prominent Men Organize to Wage Ag-
g1essive Campaign.

NEW YORK, March 11.-With the DUR
pose of waging as aggressive a campaign
in behalf of worldwide peace as un-
limited influence and money will afford,
and under the direct control of some of the
.wealthiest and most prominent men in the
United States, the Association for Inter-
national Cancellation, it is called. has
been formed in this city and will open Of
fees tomorrow at 81 44th street
Andrew Carnegie and Andrew ID. White
are the honorary presidents, and the active
officers Nicholas Murray Butler, presi-
dent of Columbia University, president;
Representative Richard Bartholdt, vice
president; Hayne Davis. secretary and
Robert A. Franks, assistant secretary,
while there is an executive committee COM
prised, in addition to these officers of DIR.
Lyman Abbott, James Speyer, Richard
Watson Glider. Stephen Henry Oln and
Seth Low.
Primarily the object of the organization
will be to cooperate on the most extensive
scale yet projected with parent body OF
the same kind now fiourishing in Europe.
Perhaps the most important feature. OF
the new organization will be its extension
of what is known abroad ,as the Interpar-
liamentary Union, composed exclusively OF
members of national parliaments. all en-
listed in the cause of peace and pledged to
use their influence for that cause In those
legislative bodies. Twenty-three of a total
of forty parlaments are already represent
ed, making a membership of more than
1900. Discussing this phase of the situa-
ton today Hayne Davis, secretary of the
association, said:
I'VE propose to see that the United
States is strongly represented in the con-
ferences of the Interparliamentary Union.
If the organization. can be established in
parliaments where it is now and can OBJ
tain a majority of members in each parlia-
ment, within decade two the executive
officers of governments throughout the
world will have to agree to a system of
law and order i'm international affairs in
place of the present system, where every
nation does as 1t pleases IL its army and
navy are large enough.
War cannot be abolished unless a bet
ter system is devised or giving to people
the things they fight for, and the associa-
ton for international Cancellation will work
to get the cooperation of the leading men
of the world in all walks of life, with the
leaders of all the pariaments. Then when
questions arise between nations they can
be referred to international judges, and we
can get together in the interim in Congress
and say what principles shall guide these
judges"

NEW STREET CLEANING IDEA.
New York Has Individual Incinerat-
ing Plants on Wheels.

NEW YORK, March 11.-Municipalities
looking to New York city for ideas can get
a brand-new and novel one just now for
use in their STRENGTHENING departments.
1t is nothing more or less than a travelling
one-man garbage crematory and is rugged
up at little or no cost. The new apparatus
was placed in use here about ten days ago
and has been pronounced success by each
department superintendent who has tried
1t. 1t is likely that in short time there
will be hundreds of them in use on the
streets throughout the city.
Nothing could be more simple than the
new incinerators, and nothing cheaper.
since they are merely WORKOUT street cans,
making furnace, one can superimpOSed,
bottom up, upon the other. The lower can
has crate above at a height-saff1cient to
form an ash pit. The sides of the lower
can are perforated for the admission of air
necessary for combustion, while the upper
can. inverted and fitting into the lower re-
ceptacle, forms dome, which prevents the
escape of burning material. In this upper
dome is door through which fuel or waste
is supplied to the lower can.
The furnace, placed on the ordinary can
carrier, is thus wheeled through the streets,
the cleaner feeding with waste as he pa
trolls his beat This continuous method of
garbage disposal goes on all day, and when
the work Is ended 1t but remains to deposit
the fine ashes in the pit into one of the
street cans.
Many advantages of the innovation must
suggest themselves even to the inexpert
municipal student. In the first place, rub
bish is disposed of that otherwise would
be mixed with sweepings and ashes. Litter
of the street surface, instead of being
gathered into pile and carried to Barren
Island, is consumed as soon as 1t Is picked
up.
The capacity of the furnace is about two
carloads Of rubbish day, and the ashes
resulting therefrom about a pailful. Eight
of these furnaces are being added each day,
and soon the city, from the Battery to Har-
lem, will be filled with them. The cost
of making is estimated at about 81 for a
furnace,

Shinnston, W. Va.

CUMBERLAND. Md, March 11.-Bur-
glars Saturday night robbed several places
In Weston and Shinnston, w. Va. They
broke into the Baltimore and Ohio railroad
station at Shinnston and secured about 5000
worth of express packages and other arti-
cles. They used heavy timber as a bat
tering ram, breaking down the door.
The burglars also broke into the Lucas
Touring mill at Shinnston, but secured
nothing at the MILL Bloodheunds from the
penitentiary at Moundsyille are being used
to trail them
At Weston burglars, thought to be men,
bers of the same gang, broke into the Bal
ti4nore and Ohio depot, blew open the safe
and secured $35 In money, besides other ar
ticles of value that were in the safe. The
Office of Samuel Hnkel was also entered
and his safe blown to pieces. They secured

of 1900 acres in the highlands. his an
cestral seat being known as Brochin Castle
Here he lives in the feudal style which
gave Andrew Carnegie his idea Of rehabili-
tation and maintenance of Skibo Castle.
Pittsburgers are wondering if the former
ironmaster will be willing to take second
place during the Founders day exercises,
as he should do if he is loyal follower of
his chief.
The completed plans for Founders day or
days include many brilliant and interesting
features. The afternoon of the second day
will be devoted to the discussion of world
topics, including universal disarmament,
the proceedings partaking OF the nature of
a worlds parliament On the evening of
the same day a concert will be given, when
one of Sir Edward Cigars works will be
produced, under the direction of this world
famous musician. The remainder of the
program will be under the leadership of
Emil Paur, conductor of the Pittsburg Or
chestra.
The banquet will be held on the evening
of the last of the three days, Friday, and
the guests of honor and speakers will be
prominent men from many parts of the

HEIRS OF EVANS MAY END SUITS
About $500, 900 Of Estate of Paris
Dentist Eaten Up by Liquidation.

PHILADELPHIA, Pa, March ia
pending compromise agreement between
the heirs-at-law and executors of the
Thomas w. Evans estate and the Thomas
w. Evans Museum and Institute Society
promises to end costly and intricate litiga-
ton which has been in court for nearly
ten years and involves about 100000
Unless some unforeseen complication
arises, the factions interested in the settle
ment believe that the compromise will be
effected within month. The general terms
have been determined, and only a few mi
nor considerations are said to stand in the
way of definite adjustment.
The heirs have agreed to accept $500 600
as their share of the estate, In lieu OF their
original claims of 81, 10000. The executors
and the society have agreed to pay the
smaller sum. 1t now remains for the execu-
tors and heirs to settle the method Of pay
ment.
Unless the compromise is effected, litiga-
lions over the estate promise to continue
indefinitely. One of many successive argu-
ments was made in the appellate division of
the supreme court Of New York Friday.
The decision Of the court Is expected within
a week, and upon this depends the attitude
of the factions negotiating.
The litigation over DR.. Evans estate has
been watched with interest by persons in
New York, Pennsylvania and France. He
died in Paris. in November. 1897, after a
successful career, leaving an estate valued
at that time at about four millions. Most
Of his property consisted Of improved real
estate in France. He left, however, about
100000 worth of property in Philadelphia,
and real estate in New York worth about
s., 100000.
In his will DIR. Evans left to sixteen heirs
an aggregate of about $270,000 consisting
of requests Of from 81. 600 to $4,000. About
100000 more was disposed of in gifts to
personal friends. One hundred thousand
dollars was left to erect a monument to his
memory in Philadelphia, his birthplace.
Also, he stipulated that his residuary estate
be used to found a museum here to contain
his art treasures, his letters from royal
personages, mementos etc.
