rled and settloJ down in Chicago , where the

IMvlnr l y n [ itmatlo.
NEW YOIIK , Nov. a-J.-As Dr. John Hall
pastor of the Fifth Avenue Presbyterian
church , was passing from ttioohurch to the
parsonage adjoining , Just after the close of
the morning service , today , it man named
John C ) . Kuth , a German , l.'i years old
stopped from behind n wagon on the opposite
sldo of the avenue nnd tired three stiois In
quick succession at the reverend gentleman
as ho was ascending the stops of his rest
denco. The llrst shot struck thu stone .tooi >
ot the doctor's house , the second perforated
one of the glass panels of thu front door , nnd
the third flattened Itself against the sldu of
tha bouse. /
Tho.shooter coolly put the pis tel , alive-cham
bered revolver of the pattern known as "The
toung America , " in his pocket , while Mr. A.
U. Dick , a ir.ombcr of Or. Hall's church , and
the sexton Jumped upon him and held htm
until the arrival ot uu olllcer. Ho made no
resistance ) whatever , nnd was led away
to thu station house and locked up.
Shortly afterward Dr. Hall wont to the
pollco .station and preferred n complaint
ngulust the urisouor.
Kuth Is a heavy , well built man , with
whiskers nnd mustache , well dressed and has
the appearance of u well-to-do business man.
He guvo his business us that of a real estate
dealer.
A great crowd was present when the shootIng -
Ing occurred and for u whllo the most In
tense excitement prevailed. About llfty
people followed the ofllccr to the station and
saw that the prisoner was safely lauded bo
ll lint thr. bars. It was an eminently respect
able crowd , composed mostly of cnurch-going
Jcople , many of whom were members of Dr.
lull's church ; bunco there waj no riot , at
tempt at rescue nor threats of lynching.
The urlsoner was evidently not In his right
mind. Ho muttered about a conspiracy
which ho Imagined existed auulUHt him
Papers found 0:1 : his person showed tlio
bias of his imniinngs. ! There were two
of those documents , ono in manu ctlu
and the other printed , but both wciosub-
stuntially the same. The printed paper wa
moro circumstantial In thu history of the
aliened conspiracy to drive the writer to
suicide or crime. It stated thai agents. In
tbo bunds of wealthy and influential people ,
were ooing nil in their power to prevent him
from rising in business ; wcro watching oil
his stops and making it impossible for him to
obtain Justice. Ills tormentors , too , bo said ,
mixed his food with obnoxlou. . stuff , thereby
causing him intense distress. The conspir
acy , the statement says , was inaugurated Iu
ISb'J , and has no equal In human history.
The statement goes on iu this sort of
style at great length , all of which
shows that the author was u
man of unbalanced mind. Thu document
Intimates thutDi. Hall , Dr. Potter nnd Judge
Hilton were the chief conspirators. Mrs. A.
T. Stewart was intimated us u good friend of
his. The prisoner stated after hU arrest
that Dr. Hall was chlof among those con-
snlring to do him bodily and mental harm.
ThU was given in explanation of his actions.
Inquiry at the address given discovered a
cheap restaurant and lodging house. An
drew Greener is the proprietor. It is located
In the tenement house quarter of the city ,
and is patronized by a transient class of very
poor people , mostly loreigners. The land
lord said that Hath hud occupied n
room there for about four months ; had
been In this county twenty years and
had acquired a fair knowledge of the English
language. Greener also said that Hath had
lately been employed In an Incubating estab
lishment in BrouKlyn. Ho had noticed cer
tain peculiarities in Hath's conduct which
seemed to indicate that ho was mentally
unbalanced. Ho often paced his roam at
night and talked Incoherently. Still ho had
not thought ho was a dangerous man.
Dr. Hull wns scon at his homo shortly
after the shooting. Ho manifested no appar
ent nervousness Iu consequence ot his
narrow escape , but ho declined posi
tively to converse upon the tome. Ilo
admitted that bo had known Hath for some
time and had received letters from bun , but
ho declined to say what was the nature of
the matter written to him , or whether It was
replied to. It Is not known whether any
throats have boon thus convoyed or not.
The prisoner was very reticent and though
outwardly calm seemed to be laboring under
suppressed excitement. Ho paced nervously
up and doivn his cell nnd paid little attention
to his surroundings. Tho'oollco declined to
permit the reporters to talk with the pris
oner. Ho will bo arraigned in the Yorkvillo
pollco court tomorrow morning.

OMAHA , Nov. 2' . To the E liter of Tin :
Biu : : In an editorial in Wednesday oven-
ing's BUK , you have graciously accorded
space in your column to "any : nomb3r of the
Board of Education to explain why ho is
anxious to place a $1,200 boating appiratiu
In a cheap four-room building , where only
half the room is icquirof ] , and where ho ox-
peels the plant will bo useless In three
years , on account of the building being too
small. "
As no member of tbo board bollovos that
to bo n statement of facts , there is nothing
to answer. However , If you will accord mo
thcspaco , I will say that tbo building re
ferred to Is not n temporary ono , but is m-
cndcd to bu as permanent ns any frame
building can bo made , and in ease the build
ing is too small in three years , an addition ol
two or tour rooms can uo Unlit that will not
detract from the symmetry of the building.
Why should not the board then plucu in
this building the host system of banting nnd
vuntilaton that can bo devised ( Too many
of our school buildings are without adequate
means of ventilation , nnd yet our Meatinp
apparatus has cost from $ -CO tu f 100 par
room
Evoy member of the Board of Education 1s
willing and anxious to accept whatever sys-
torn Is best for the welfare nnd health of llio
school. U'o do not claim that there Is any
perfect system of heating and ventilation ,
but the ovldonco of tbo experience uf
such cltlos as Toronto , Toledo , Columbus ,
Alloghauy , Kansas , City , Denver , and nuuy
others cannot bo Ignored , and thu mem
ber of the Board of Education , who after
careful Investigation fails to udvociito the
best system of heating and ventilating our
school buildings has not done his whole
duty. I would not for a moment nrguo with
an Intelligent man the problem of boating
permanent school buildlnm with stovos.
