and romantic spirit of the people; but
n was the executions and the errors OF
the military administration, which fell
with undiscriminating hand on the in
nocent and guilty alike, that have
changed the perspective and the his
torical significance Of the revolt IN the
minds Of the Irish people.

MORE MARINESGO
TO SAN DOMINGO
Men from Norfolk and
Hayti Hurried to the
Republic.

Washington, May 19.-Three hun
dred marines at Norfolk and between
400 and 500 in Hayti we're ordered to-
night TO Sarto Domingo to reinforce
the American force policing the little
republic.
The marines at Norfolk will go on
the cruiser Tennessee, now at New
York. The cruiser Salem, at Boston
also was ordered to Santo Domingo
and will take about twenty-five ma
rines from the Boston station.
The transfer of marines from Hayti
tc Santo Domingo was ordered by Rear
Admiral Caperton, commanding the
American forces in Dominican waters.
He gave no details of the develop
ments which prompted his action.
The task of the United States, under
treaty agreement, of upholding the
constitutional authorities in Ssnto Do
mingo, has been complicated by quar-
rel between President Jimenez and
Congress. which resulted in the Ex-
ecutive's impeachment almost simulta-
neously with the development of an
armed revolution under General Arias.
Rebels for a time last week were in
possession of the capital, but retired
Monday when five hundred marines
were landed by Admiral Caperton. This
American force occupied the city, and
no important disturbances have been
reported since.

In addition, so many companies IN

Thoughts of violent deeds were pass
ing through Thomas Wininsky's mental
machinery yesterday morning when he
dashed from his home, at 1873 North
Seventh Street, Williamsburg, after a
quarrel with his bride of three months.
Fate guided his footsteps before the
studio of S. Blumcnthal, where his eyes
fell upon the pictured face of his bride.
Mrs. Wininsky. in her bridal veil'
stood behind the chair of her husband,
who wearing an angelic smile, was
shown holding her gloved hand. About
them were grouped bridesmaids and
guests.
The enraged husband looked but
once at the picture. Then his rlght

sound of shattering glass, seized nm
