LONDON. December 30.-The par
liamentary correspondent Of the Lon
don Times says the cabinet spent
more than two hours Wednesday in
considering all phases of the Irish
question.
While it is regarded that from a
narrowly military standpoint the out
look undeniably has improved in the
last few months. the correspondent
adds. there is no inclination on the
part of the cabinet members to mini
mize the desirability of pushing for
peace. 1t is thought probable in yell
informed circles, says the writer, that
the first opportunity will be taken
to pursue explorations" Of avenues
to a possible settlement with the
representatives of the Irish people.

He played with the doctor when he

DR.. Brewer and Mr.. Morgan chased
the assassin and caught him. Mr.. Nor
gan said he did not see exactly how
the shooting occurred. He heard three
shots and saw the man running. ne
and Dr.. Brewer followed him across

When we seized him the weapon was
IN one of the breast pockets of his

Littleton Will Allege Re-
venge of Two Detectives
as Motive in the Case

Colonel Augustus Drum Porter, for
mcrly Third Deputy Police Commits
sioner, will offer an alibi as his defense
when he goes to trial to-day in Judge
James 7. Malone's court on an indict-
ment charging him with neglect Of
duty.
The alibi will be based on the sworn
statement of Mrs. Porter, who will tell,
according to reliable information, how
she and the colonel visited a theater
and afterward went directly home and
to bed on the night he is alleged to
have been in the apartment of Adele
Goodall in West Ninety sixth Street.
Colonel Porter will be defended by
Martin w. Littleton. The case will be

Murder OF Friend Shock
To George w. WicEershny,

George w. Wickersham, formerly At
torney General of the United States
and vcstryman at st. Georges
Church, was told of the murder Of DR.
Markoe by a Tribune reporter yester-
day afternoon after he had arrived in
New York from a trip out of the city.
This is shocking!" he said. 1T is
a terrible thing! DR.. Markoe was a
warm friend of mine and a fellow
vestryman."
Lawrence w. Atterbury, an attorney
and one of the ushers at st. Georges
declared the shooting of DR.. Markoc
only emphasized the necessity for
legislation OF enforcement of present
laws that would do away with the pos
sibility of the criminal element to OBJ
tanning and carrying weapons about
the streets of New York
"There should be a more careful in
vestigation of suspicious characters in
public places" he said.
r. Fulton Cutting, who was near by
when the shooting took place, said it
was miraculous that Others in the con-
gregation were not struck by the bull
let's from the maniacs revolver. The
first bullet, which passed through a
window, he said grazed the hats of
several women.
