TRAGEDY RESULT OF A FOOLISH JOKE
Yoath Wkt II1 the theotlnar Innc
ea.tomed to Handling Gnn Which
II Pointed at His
playmate.
Coroner Treynor nnd Sheriff Canning
went to Avoca yesterday to investigate
the shooting of a 12-year-old son of Henry
christian, living In Valley township about
ten miles south of Avoca, by a 14-year-old
boy named Flees.
Young Christian and Flees, with a com
panion about their own age, started on
Sunday afternoon to go swimming in a
creek nearby. The Flees boy was carrying
a shotgun, which, according to the story
told by the third boy, he pointed at the
Christian lad and threatened to Shoot him.
The Christian boy seised the gun by the
muixle and turned It away, but the Flees
lad pulled It and again pointed It at young'
Christian saying "I am going to shoot
you," and pulletl the trigger. The full
charge entered the lad's abdomen, making
a terrible wound.
The boy as soon as possible waa taken
to his home and medical assistance sum
moned. Young Christian died . about S
o'clock in the evening, four hours after
the shooting. Flees was arrested and
placed in th county Jail at Avoca. He
Insisted hat he was only Joking and had
no Intention to pull the trigger, which ho
did by accident.
The inquest resulted in the Jury bringing
in a verdict to the effect that young Chrls-
tiao cam to his death from a gunshot
wound Indicted by young Fleea and that
the shooting waa -probably accidental.
Young Flees waa accordingly released from
custody. x
It was shown at the inquest that the
gun carried by young Flees belonged to an
other boy and that the Flees lad had never
handled a gun before. The evidenoe as a
whole tended to show that young Flees
was only. Joking when . he threatened to
shoot the Christian boy.
Coroner Treynor and Sheriff Canning re
turned home last night.
Txnjsnn and hiu. held for trial
Court Ttefases Ball for Prisoners at
.1 Present.
The preliminary hearing of Bobert Tur
ner and Andy Hill, the negroes charged
with the murder of George Chilson, presi
de it of the Boilermakers', union, on a
motor car while returning from the Eagles'
carnival grounds, was completed yesterday
morning before Judge Bcott in police saurt.
Both prisoners were , held to await the
action of the district grand Jury, without
ball.
The defense- moved for the dismissal of
thecase against Hill; contending that the
stata had failed to produce any evidence
to show that he was in any manner re
sponsible for the Shooting, but that on the
other hand, he did . all in ihis power; to
prevent Ms 'companlan; turner.' front turffit
h8 revolver. Judge Bcott, however, over-
ruled -the motion.
The only witness called by the state yes
terday morning was Thomas Richardson,
who was -an eye witness of the shooting,
Richards testified that Hill told Turner
to "plug him," evidently meaning Chilson.
Hill, he said, made the remark Just before
the revolver, was handed to Turner and
the shot fired.
The defense did not introduce any evi
dence. Before being taken back - to the
county. Jail Turner and HIU held quite a
levee in the police court, a number of col
ored people being present, among them be
ing several women, including the sweet
hearts of the two prisoners.
Attorneys for the defendants mad a
strong ' plea for ball and before .leaving
the court Judge Scott announced he would
take this question under advisement for
a few days. In any case, even should
Judge Bcott decide to, admit the prisoners
to bail. It Is believed It will be placed at
such a-figure that neither of the defend
ants will be able to furnlah It. '

The signing of the contract with BIJtby &

plant In the Carnegie library building led
to a long- drawn out discussion as to
whether the general contractors, Winches
ter & Cullen, or the board should bear the
cost of placing the radiators In ths build
ing temporariry for heating the structure
during the course of construction. Mr.
Blxby contended that he should be allowed
U a radiator for the expense of setting
them up nnd then placing them back In
their proper positions after the plaster had
dried. Winchester A Cullen said they had
never before been asked to pay for such
accommodation and the matter was finally
referred toy the committee on buildings to
dispose of.

for the month of July showed that 8.7R8
volumes had been issued to patrons, of
whom 1.445 were sdults snd 1,818 children.

lation was J04 books, the smallest 78 and
the average 130.1 J.

well stocked for the present with such
rending matter.

A large open motor car, on which H. A.
Hough was motorman, collided with a
double-seated automobile on South Mnln
street near Seventh avenue yesterday after
noon, nnd, strange to say, the motor came
off second best in the encounter. The auto
was tipped almost over on its side by the
force of the collision, but in some way
righted itself, and the chauffer, after two
or three tantalizing hoots with his horn,
waved his hand at Hough and dashed west
on Seventh aventie without waiting to
present his card or disclose his Identity.
It Is thought the auto was from Omaha.
The fender on the motor car was so badly
bent that It had to be removed.

CLARKBVILLE, la.. Aug. 8. (Special.)
George Debolt created a sensation In the
Inquiry regarding the throwing of lyo into
the eyes of Mrs. Parnle Ramsey when
he swore that he spied through a window
and ' saw Wheeler, the man accused of
the attempt upon the woman's life, pour
lye from a can Into a milk bottle.
"That will fix her," are the words he
la said by Debolt to have spoken, as he
fastened the cork In the nenk of the bot
tle and set out.
Debct says that In his belief both
Wheeler and Jerome Brown were In the
room at the time, and the authorities are
now Inclined to believe more than ever
that both men had a hand in the plot to
ruin the woman's face, if not to take her
life. -

Dnbnqa Women Shy,
DUBUQUE, la,, Aug. (.-(Special.) That
Dubuqun girls are modest and do not care
to have, distinguished honors bestowed upon
them Is evidenced from the fact' that none
can be found who desires the honor of,
breaking a bottle of wine on the gunboat
Dubuque when that vessel is launched at
Morris Heights, N. Y., on August 15. In
other cities the young women would have
endless controversies over who should be
sponser, but not so la Dubuque. The young
women here are too modest to appear and
christen gunboats before the multitude; at
least that must be the opinion of Mayor
Berg, who has been searching the town
for a sponser for the Dubuque for the
past week, but has met with poor success.

forward the oblects of the club better than
a scheme for developing the facilities of
the tourist In Ireland-.
The chairman sat-hd ths Llstory o
tourist development Jn. Ireland. In the
pre-tourlst association days the hotel ac
commodation-wss bad; there wae no .dining
ft cars on the trains, cheap tourist tickets
could not be obtained except to Klllarney,
and the beauties of Irish scenery were not
properly advertised. In 18U5 a change came,
a certain numuer si men got together and
suggested that It would be a g-xid thing
to Induce tourists to go to lrolnnd and
give them better facilities. The movenien
progressed, and much has since been done
But there wus still room for Improvemrn
In the hotel accommodation, especially
the west. Some of the Inns in the country
towns were very bad. If Jhcy helped tsc
other their friends and 'neighbor on this
side of the channel would come forwar
ana help them with -their manufactures,
their smaller Industries snd tourist enter
prises, which would go a long war t
Solving one of th. country's grentert difT
cultlos namely, Low to keen Uslsud'g sous'
nd daughters from leaving her shores at.d
seeking employment In foreign lands.
Sir Horace Plunkett said that tho devel
opment of tourist facilities In Ireland had
mused two very opposite opinions In the
country. The best contribution which such
gathering as that could make waa to
try and reconcile these two opposite views.
Dealing with some of the points which had
been raised against the development of
tourist traffic, he waa of tht opinion that
large percentage of complaints made
against the Irish railways were not wMl
substantiated by fat. As to the complaint
that English tourists Angllclred Ireland and
Counteracted ths movement of juch bodies
as the Gaelic league, which were trying to
restore to Ireland a national life which the
country had not enjoyed for many cen
turies, It was a wrong attitude for the
Irish to take up. If the tourist trafllc were
properly understood and utlllxsd, It might
be of the utmost assistance to them In
doing the very thing that they i.11 wanted
to do.
HUNTING ITALIAN SWINDLER
Man Who Deceived Ennllsh fry (iansy
Story Is Wanted . la
Parts,
PARIS, Aug. 8. (Special Cablegram to
The Bee.) The French police are Just
now trying to discover the whereabouts
of an Italian nobleman named Count VII-
lamatina, who Is alleged to have swindled
various people In London .out of sums
mounting to about 80,000 on the strength
of an extraordinary story of a valuable
concession of the French government.
The count has been well known In Lon-
on society for some yeftrs pas, and last
year, while there, he gave out that he had
secured from M. Rouvler, tho French Min
ister of. Finance, a most valuable conces
sionno less than the right to Impose a
tax of a penny on every Stock exchange
transaction taking plnce onl the market,
as distant from the official market on the
Paris Bourse. . , (
Tho concession was alleged by the count
to have been given to him In consequence
of services he had rendered, and on con
dition that ho made a large cash deposit,
considerably over 100,000, and that he
paid' one-third of the proceeds of the con
cession to the French government.
In spite of the preposterous nature of
this story, he found people In London ready
to deposit with him large sums of money
on the strength of tho supposed conces
sion. He eVen succeeded In Inducing a
well-known firm of London solicitor to
act for him. The count produced various
official documents in French, purporting
to be sealed and signed by the French
Minister of Finance.
A gentleman well known Jn the aquatic
world was Induced to part with a sum of
10,000 end other victims .placed smaller
amounts with the count, whose undoing
was due to Mr. Frank Boyd May, a Lon
don stockbroker, whom he also approached
With a similar object In view.
Mr. May, having had, his i suspicions
aroused, wrote to the British consul In
Paris, and as a result of the inquiries
that were set on foot It was soon ascer-
alned that no such concessions were
granted by the French government to
Count Vlllamarlna or any one else.
Owing to the energetic action of Mr.
May, the gentleman who had paid over
10,000 was , fortunate enough to recover
the sum, but other victims have been less
successful. The count had a confederate
on this side In the person of a former
Junior official at the ministry of finance,
who seems to have got possession of min
isterial note paper and rubber stamps.
M. Andre, Judge d'lnstructlon, has the
case in hand and M. Hemerd, chief of the
Detective department, holds a warrant
for the count's arrest, the French govern
ment considering, that .a fraudulent use
has been" made of its name for. the purpose
of obtaining money.

appearance. . . .
In slmpls words he tells the story of the
famous, charge.
"We had not gone far," he said, "before
the men n the left division of my squndron
were nearly all mowed down, including a
sergeant, whose head was blown off, his
body remaining upright while his horse
galloped' thirty yards before it fell from
the saddle.
"Every shot from the enemy's guns came
with deadly effect. Within a few yards
ot the Russian guns my horse was shot
under me.
On foot I succeeded In cutting my
way through- the . Russian cavalry, end
when I got clear of my foes I assisted
several fallen comrades, after which I
mounted a stray horse and returned up the
valley, passing scores of dead men.
I found that out of 145 of the Seven
teenth Lancers Who Joined In the charge
only thirty-five lived to tell the tale. On
the morning of the battle -there were thir
teen of ua in one tent; in the evening I was
lone."

BALFOUR IS STANDING PAT
Declines to Admit Enstia Bad Right to
Sink Knight Commander.
RUSSIA INCLINED JO SETTLE MATTER
Lengthy statement In Honae of Com
mons Tends to theft lp the
Situation and Reasamre
British pabllc..
I ioNDON, Aug. 8. In the House of Com
mons today Premier Balfour, replying to a
question on the subject, said the British
government adhered to Its contention that
there was no adequate Justification for the
sinking of the British steamer Knight Com
mander by the Vladivostok squadron.
The premier made a general statement of
the government's views on the Malacca
and Knight Commander Incidents. He
pointed out that the government objec
tion to the selsure of the Malacca was
based entirely on the British contention
that ships Issuing from the Black sea un
der the commercial flag of Russia wers In
competent to transfer themselves Into
cruisers.
"W remonstrated, . therefore, very
strongly with the Russian government and
they showed a desire to meet us," contin
ued Mr. Balfour, "but sn Important thing
to remember la that It Is an entirely new
Issue. It Is the first time any such Incident
has occurred since the treaty of Tarls or
the treaty of London, on which our objec
tion Is based, have come Into existence. If
the Russian government was right In Its
contention the captors of the Malacca
would have had the right to take It to a
Russian port snd before a prise court. If
we were right there was no Justification
for Its selsure. Our object waa to prevent
this new Incident developing Into one which
would cause a great strain between the
two countries a condition of strain whloh
might very easily. In my opinion, have de
veloped further. I
Heanlta In Compromise.
"The actual arrangement was therefor In
the nature of a Compromise. The Russian
government gave up the Idea of taking, ths
Malacca to a' Russian port and examining
Its cargo, or trying It before a prise court.
We, cn the other hand, agreed that it
should be taken to a neutral port and After
a purely formnTexamlnatlon of Its cargo
to be then and there released. It was also
arranged that two volunteer fleet steam
ers, the St. Petersburg and Smolensk, were
no longer to act, as cruisers. The whole of
our contention was thus, I think, grarrted,
and I confess that I have not the smallest
feeling of regret that we did our best to
meet the Russian government, who on their
side made no Impracticable suggestions in
the matter. The government has not ad
mitted the right to capture by allowing an
examination - of the Malacca.
"Regarding the Knight Commander, It
was sunk on the ground that it was ex
tremely difficult to bring it into port and
because, In the opinion of the Russian of
ficers. It was carrying contraband of war.
To our opinion, these circumstances, true
cr not,' afford no Justification for sinking
a neutral ship. We have not abandoned
our position In the smallest degree."
FLAW , FOR LOJTDO! EAST END
Memebr of Parllment Objects to
- Living with Foreigners.
LONDON, Aug. 8.-(Spectal Cablegram to
The Bee.) "What the East End needs Is
a gentry class," said the Rev. E. C. Carter,
vicar of St Jude's, Whitechapel, this week
in explanatliin of a new plan he has pro
pounded for solving the East End problem. :
Mr, Carter; having the oourage of hla
oonvletlons, has been bringing his plan
forward at meetings in the East End lately,
and the other evening he suggested at a
meeting 'that at future elections of 'mem
bers of Parliament, county councillors, bor
ough councillors and guardians, one of the
tests for candidates should be the question:
"Are you prepared to live In the East
LndT".
His proposal ha been received with a
good deal of opposition, but he Intends
persevering until he brings the East End
around to hla way of thinking.
"Every one who works In the East End
lives out of It If he can," said the vicar.
We have .no middle class to back our
work. We are a sort of garrison, and we
are only marking time. .The mass of the
people remain untouched by religious in
fluences. We do not move them.
"It was this failure that killed Father
DalllDg. The methods by which he suc
ceeded among the people of Portsmouth
failed among the people of the East End,
and he died of a broken heart.
"The question of residence is at the root
of the matter. It ought to be the duty of
those who represent the people to live
among them at any rate, for part of the
year. The moral effect would bo tremend
ous, and the Improvement of the East End
would soon be brought about If all the pub
lic men and officials had to Jive there."
, Mr. Carter thinks that, to begin with,
tho East End might be mapped out, like
congested districts in Ireland, and for Of
ficial who had to live there, there should
be a liberal aystem of "Indian pay."
The residence of the better class ef peo
ple .would, he holds, affect the neighbor
hood so favorably that after a time the
"residence order could be rescinded.
"Qood, but unworkable," la the verdict
of Major Evan Gordon, M. P., for Step
ney, on th suggestion of the Rev. Mr.
Carter. -.. -
"It Is impracticable." he said, "for the
simple reason that there are no places In
the East End where people of refinement
eould live.
- "All the good houses are Inhabited by
foreigners of every, nationality under the
un.
"Take my own constituency, for example.
Here all the better class houses are occu
pied by foreigners. The aliens have driven
out the English.
"Formerly these houses were occupied by
pilots, shipmaster and people of that
class; but now all la alien land.
"Upder the circumstances can you ex
pect any. man to go and live there for
cholceT
"I live quite U weeks of the year in
Stepney, but the surroundings are such
that I should not care to take my wife
there, and I only reside in the East End
when she la away.
"I quite agree with Carter that It
would be a good thing If people with edu
cation and mean did live In the East End,
but Mr. Carter has to get rid of th for
eigner before he can possibly hope to
see hi proposals take a practical form."
