CAPTURE THE RIPPER.
Berlin Police Seize Man in Act of Stab.
bling a Woman.

Berlin, Feb. 27<--A man, who has not
yet been identified, was arrested By tho
Berlin police yesterday as the notorious
ripper VINO has been attacking women
and girls on the streets Of the city fer
a fortnight past. When the man was
arrested he was fleeing after attempting
to stab Q woman in Friedrich strnese.
The w0maRs screams frightened him
away before he could injure her, although
her dress was slashed by his knife.
A policeman who happened to be m
the vicinity pursued the stranger and
came up with him at the entrance Of =
house in neighboring street. The man
made no resistance.
The attacks upon young girls and
women Of which yesterdays Is said to
have been the thirty sixth have been as
numerous as three a day, and have caused
so much alarm through their persistency
that many women have been afraid TO
venture out Of their houses. The attacks
seldom were dangerous, except in the
nervous shock they produced ON the VIC
tim. Though the criminal struck with
q knife, the wounds he inflicted we're in
general slight. Physieians and the po-
lice were OF the opinion that the attacks
were the work Of deranged person.
Until yesterday there had been no clue
to the identity Of the criminal and, be-
cause Of the audiences of HE attacks,
no adequate description Of him.

STEEL WAR A TARIFF MOVE.
Feeling in Washington That Cut in
Prices Will Prevent Reduction.

IAiScS WAL EAcFSut NSuuCllOn.
Washington, Feb. 27.-Gossip con-
corning the ways and means committee
is that the Republicans thereon are
making progress in the phrascology Of
the bill and that it viii be perfected
in time for the opening of tho special
session. IL Is said in we'll informed
quarters today that the majority has
given up the plan, of which much has
been said, Of trying to fix valuations on
the basis of the cost of gfoods in this
country. This has been abandoned for
the reason that It is realized that
combination of manufacturers here
could easily agree on home price which
would make duties prohibitive.
It Ia also said the Republican members
of the COMMITTEES are framing strict
customs administrative features Of the
bill, and that undervaluations will be
more stringently dealt with than now.
Some members of the committee are
anxious to fix an ad valorern duty on
wool, but wool men say this will not be-
done, as 1t is practically impossible.
The opinion prevails In many quar-
terra that the action of the United
States Steel corporation in cutting steel
prices is going to increase the difficulty
Of cutting the steel schedules. One an-
thority yesterday pointed cut it would
not be strange If the steel war brought
about cutting Of wages and strikes, in
which case Congress would find it AL
most impossible TO lower the duties on
steel.

Millionaires Form a Company
to Aid the Work Of the
FAMOUS PLANT WIZARD
Capitalized in the MiIlions--First Result
Of the New Scheme Will Be the Full
sr Development Of the Spine
.,---- less Cactus. .

San Francisco, Feb 27.---In order that
his discoveries may be more generally
distributed and incidentally that his work
may not be hampersd by his business
worries, the brains and genius OF Luther
Burbank, the plant wizard, have been
capitalized for several million dollars.
The men who have secured the right
to distribute TO the world the plant dis
coveries Of the Santa Rosa naturalist
are Hartland Law and bis brother, Her
bert B. Law, the well known millionaires
Of this city, and Oscar u. Dinner, q
wealthy Eastern capitalist.
There Is no limit TO the rights which
the men have secured, except one or
two small contracts which Burbank Is
fulfilling. Working alone, Burbank has
not had time To give the results Of all
OF his experiments to the public, but now
a systematic effort will be made to dis
tribute both his past and future products
10 the world.
