General Simon Within Days
 Walk of Port au Prince.

Port au Prince. Haiti, Nov 30.-The revolutionists, under command of Gen. eral Antoine simon. following up their victory over the government forces at Anse a Veau, are pushing on to Port au Prince
 They have driven back the govern ment troops many miles and have seiz- ed the towns of Miragoane and Petit Goave
 President Nord Alexis has energetic ally rejected the suggestion which has been made to him that he give up the struggle. and the government is now actively engaged in organizing it's forces for strong resistance. Three divisions of we'll disciplined troops un- der General Andre occupy com manding position about six miles out side of the city.
 The revolutionists are likely to reach this city within twenty-four hours. The engagement will be serious.

JENKINS TRUST CO.'S
 SUCCESSOR CLOSES,
Lafayette Trust Company Calls
 h Bank Superintendent.

New York, Nov. SO.-The Lafayette Trust company of Brooklyn, successor to the Jenkins Trust company, which failed in the recent panic and whose former president, John c. Jenkins, IT,, is now on trial for forgery, did not open its doors today.
 Harold A. Davidson, president of the Lafayette, issued the following state. ment:
 '"rhe proposed increase of the capital stock of the Lafayette Trust company, to meet the requirements of the new law for the operation of existing branches, has proved unsuccessful. Three branches have already been closed, and for the lack of additional capital two more must now be aban- doned.
 "A continuation of business under these circumstances is impossible. The advice of number of presidents of Brooklyn trust companies was sought, and it was the consensus of opinion that liquidation must come, and that this could be accomplished more ex- pediently and more economically by the banking department under the re- cent statutes than otherwise.
 'The superintendent of banks has been consulted and will take posses sion for the purpose of effecting such liquidation"
 The deposits are $1,5OO,0OO.

Mrs. Ward Denies Some Alleged Ben
 efits of Vivisection.
 Boston. Nov. 30. Mrs. Elizabeth Stuart Phelps Ward, the author and antivivisectionist, comments on the ar ticle by John D. Rockefeller as fol- lows:
 do not deny that there may be ex- tremely rare cases in which the results of vivisection have seemed to help hu- man being, but we who have studied this subject for many years know that such instances, if they exist at all, are too few to have any bearing upon tremendous moral question like this. Ten thousand things learned. if this were possible, from vivisection would not justify the intolera- ble and unpardonable torture to which animals have been subjected by this bru- tai practice.

SHOOTS WIFE
DEAD; CALMLY
GOES TO SLEEP
Treasury Clerk Says That He
Dreamed of Burglars-Had
PraCtised with Revolver.

WASHINGTON. March s1S.-Hugh
Hollis, a treasury department clerk,
who came here from Louisville. KY.
and served for a time as private secre-
tary to the commissioner of Internal
revenue, shot and killed his wife at
their home early today.
Hollis procured a revolver a day or
two ago and took leave from his Office
yesterday to practise with the weapon.
About 3 o'clock this morning his wife
arose to attend to their child. and as
h returned to the bedside Hollis
awakened, pulled the revolver from be-
meath his pillow and fred, instantly
killing the woman. Immediately he
went to sleep again and says he knew
nothing of the shooting until he was
afterward awakened. He has always
borne an excellent reputation and he
declares he was dreaming of burglars.
