NEW YORK, Nov. 10.--New York
City today is trying in a municipal

by police.
The 2,400 strikers are using the
strike breaking methods of the city

are rallying to their support. Not

er Edwards is making a determined
effort to smash the strike and remove
the garbage which Is threatening tc

ton, farmer living near Callao, was
shot and killed by his wife who says
that she acted in self-defense. The
two quarreled about their child, who
had left home. Mrs FELTON, said she
tried TO leave the mousse but that her
husband caught her and brought her
back. She said FELTON, threatened to
kill her and as evidence of carrying
out his intention placed pistol un-
der his pillow when he retired later.
That was about IL o'clock, but
neither slept. According to Mrs. Eel
ton, at o'clock FELTON, arose and left
the room.
When he returned FELTON, stood by
the wife's bedside and said: You
know what l told you | was going to
do last night"
Mrs. FELTON, says those were the
first words he had spoken since they
retired for the night, and feeling con
fident he was going to kill her she
pulled the revolver from under the
pillow and fired.
The bullet struck FELTON, in the
head and he died almost instantly.

CHICAGO, Nov. 10. In an at
tempt to force another link in their
chain Of circumstantial evidence
against Mrs John NJ Quinn, the po-
lice today decided to exhume the body
of the woman's first husband, John
Mcdonald. who died September %,
1901, at Jackson, Mich.
Mrs. Quinn's second and third hus-
bands We're both shot as they lay
asleep in bed, the wife's explanation
in both cases being that burglars did
the shooting. She was the only wit
ness.
If the police find poison in the Wis
cera of Mcdonald their suspicion that
she had something to do with the sud-
den death of her husband will be con-
firmed. Mcdonald died supposedly of
alcoholism.
Charles Thorp, son of Mrs. Quinn's
second husband, declared at the in
! quest that he had always expected
his step-mother of killing John Thorp.
1 Mrs. Quinn sticks to her story OF
4 the burglar assassin.
! Deputy Coroner Hermann today
submitted to the coroner his report
in the Quinn case, setting forth why
he was led to suspect Mrs. Quinn OF
crime. Boarders at the Quinn home
told him he said, that about week
/ before Quinn was murdered, a board
er named Miller could not find his
4 revolver. Mrs. Quinn displayed good
knowledge of the style of the pisto
j, which was an old style weapon. Sc
, far the police have not sufficient evl
dence to issue warrant charging
Mrs. Quinn with the crime. 1t is ex
pected this evidence will be uncovered
lin a short time and that Mrs. Quinn
like Mrs. Vermilya, will be charged
with the murder of several husbands

plant That the Enemy is vlo-
lating Articles Of
War.
CITES SOME INSTANCES
In Battles Of November 9Th and 7th,
Turks Fired on Ambulances
and Beheaded the
Wounded.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 10.-San Gui-
liano, the Italian minister of war, for
warded to the Italian embassy mes
sage from Gen Caneva relating to
battles November 6 and Z, in which
the italian general declared there was
'indisputable evidence Of violation of
the articles of war" on the part OF
the Arabs. Gen. Caneva's message
was as follows:
"Our scouts on the field, when the
encounters of the 9th and 7th took
place between the Ninety-third Regi-
ment of Italian infantry and Turks
and Arabs, have ascertained that acts
Of cruelty have been committed upon
our own fallen. The dead were
found barbarously decapitated. No
doubt subsists that in this encounter
the Turks were present, and for this
reason they are directly responsible.
Rumors, whose foundation was not
possible to ascertain, were heard re
garding barbarous killing OF Italians
fallen on the fields while they were
still alive and prisoners.
1T was ascertained that the Arab
directed the fire and the attack
against the ambulances and trans
ports of wounded, but it was still un
certain If only the Arabs were
blame for it, or If the Turks shoul
also have been declared outlawed 10
violations of war regulations.
Now the doubt does not exist an
more, because it has been ascertain
ed in most absolute way that on tn
battle field Of Ain Ear, the Turks
command, in violation Of article 30
the last convention, ordered and ha
hanged. without trial, our informant
and some Arabs who were suspecte
of spying. There is indisputable ev
dence of violations Of the articles
! war on the part OF the Arabs, WI
= were controlled by Turkish officia
j. against the Italians
