inSSTARTLINGCHARGE Priest’s Statement Concerning an Assault on a Woman. ' GREAT CRIME BACK OF IT. She Win the Principal Witness to Plots ' Against the Life of a Deposed Catholic Pastor of Cleveland, He Claims -Riot In a Pennsylvania Polish Church—Several Persons Shot. Cl-EVELAND. May 28.—Late Saturday night a Polish woman named Mrs. Eliza-1 beth Janicki was found wandering in the streets in the southern part of the city suffering from a bad wound in the head. She said she had been assaulted by a man. but before she could give the particulars she became unconscious and was removed to the hospital. She has not yet recovered consciousness. Rev. A. F.'Kolaszewski, the deposed pastor of St. Stanislaus Catholic church, makes a startling charge in connection with the assault. He declares that Mrs. Janicki was the principal witness in possession of information about a plot to blow him up with dyfiamite. When the row at St. Stanislaus was in progress, he says, Stanislaus Koscinski was deputized to place a dynamite bomb in his buggy. After his deposition Rev. Kolaszewski went to Syracuse, N. Y., and he declares that Koscinski followed him to that city and with a crucifix in his hand confessed the part he was to take in the plot. A short time thereafter a Polish printing offiee in this city was destroyed by fire. In the ruins of the building the derfd body of Koscinski was found, with a knife wound in the abdomen. Rev. Kolaszewski says that Koscinski was murdered and his body burned to conceal the crime by persons who knew of his confessing, and that an attempt has been made to put Mrs, Janicki out of the way, because of her knowledge of the plot. The other faction of St. Stanislaus congregation laugh at the priest’s story, but the police are investigating the assault. RIOT IN A CHURCH. Poles aii<! Police Do Lively Shooting In a Pennsylvania Town. Hazleton, Pa.. May 28.—During a riot yesterday at St, Casimir’s Polish church at Freeland Victor Tipnoky and Peter Yosmoski wer f e fatally shot, James Travinski and Joseph Dutch were less seriously injured by the weapons of the police, and Chief of Police James Gallagher and Officer Jones of the police force were cut and injured by stones thrown by the crowd. A factional fight has been waged for more than a year in the church, and the enemies of the pastor, Father Mazotos, attempted to prevent the men from firing in the church. His police escort was attacked by the mob and the officers fired on them. KENTUCKY DIVERSION. Men Killed In a Fusillade of Bullets at a Country Store. Hopinsville, Ky.. May 28.—A fatal shooting affray took place Saturday night at a country store near Pilot Rock, nine miles east of here, when Neel Edwards shot and instantly killed Samuel Martin, with whom he had trouble.

LOVE LAUGHS AT LOCKSMITHS. It Ako Gives a Preacher an Exciting and Ineffectual Experience. Buffalo, May 28.—The northern part of the city, known as Kensington, is all agog with the story of the elopement of pretty Nellie Shriveley and the exciting pursuit made by her brother, Rev. William Shriveley, pastor of the Kensington M. E. church. Miss Shriveley lived with her brother until Saturday. She was in love with a young carpenter named Bert Sayles, but her brother disapproved of the match and put a close watch on Nellie. Saturday night he looked out of his study’ window and saw the couple making their way rapidly up the street in the raiu. The parson was only partly attired. He opened the window and shouted to his suffer to come back. Instead, Nellie and Bert started across fields, through the deep grass, the preacher after them, without hat or coat or vest. He over-' took the couple half a mile from the house. Young* Sayles grappled with him, threw him down, sat on him, and cried: “Run, Nellie, run.” Nellie did run, and took refuge in the house of J. J. Warren. Then Sayles released the preacher and ran. He and Nellie went into the garret of the Warren house, but when Rev. Shriveley arrived Mr. Warren ordered them out. Sayles refused to go, but was forced to do so by two policemen, leaving Nellie behind. Then Mr. Shriveley took his sister by force and put her into Warren’s buggy and made a dash for home. Sayles ran along behind the carriage and, as the roads were muddy, managed to keep up with the horses. When the buggy drove up iu front of the house Nellie jumped out and ran into the i house and slammed and locked the door, I barring out her brother. Then she ran | to the rear door and passed out into the j stable. Her brother did not discover ; her escape until he had searched the | whole house. In the meantime Sayles i had joined the girl and they ran all the j way to his brother's house on Hill street, I where they’ were married at 11 o'clock. . BANISHED TO SIBERIA. ■enaas.

St. Petersburg, May 28.—A sensa- ; tional will case, in which Count Sollogoub | and four other persons have been con- j victed and sentenced to. banishment in ; Siberia, is made doubly sensational by ’ the suicide of the count’s young son, who shot himself when he heard of the sen- j tence imposed on ,his father. It was i proven that Sollogoub an‘d two lawyer- ■ forged a will purporting to be that of ■ Vladimir Gribanow, in which the sum ! of 1,000,000 rublps were to be divided be- I tween himself mid the widow. Contracts Converted Into Notes. May 28. — Hugh Rogers, : secretary and treasurer of the Commer- : cial Information company, has been ar- i rested for forgery. The company’ publishes business directories and it is al- ■ leged that by cutting away a small part ' of advertising contracts they were converted into promissory notes and money was twice collected. The scheme yielded thousands of dollars. Farewell Service to Miss Willard. London, May 28. —A farewell service was held at St. James hall yesterday in connection with the departure from England of Miss Frances Willard, the well known American temperance’advocate. Lady Somerset, who is prominent in the temperance movement in Great Britain, and of whom Miss Willard has been a guest, made a brief address. r J — Senator Gormsui’st Baltimore, May 28.—Senator Gorman. who has been quite pick at his home, is much better and his physicians say that a few days rest will now restore him.

FIFTY-TON ROCK ON THE TRACK. It Was Run Into by a B. and O. Train and Three Men Killed. Pittsburg, May 28.—Yesterday a Bal timore and Ohio express train was wrecked on the sharp curve at Pine Grove by a 50-ton rock which had rolled on the track. The train was running at full speed to make up lost time and the I obstruction could not be seen until the I engine was upon it. The engine and tender were completely demolished and the three derailed baggage cars were afterward burned. Miraculously the passengers escaped, none being seriously ’ hurt. The train crew, however, was less fortunate. Engineer Nicholson was so badly crushed and burned that the re ■ mains found were placed in a basket. Fireman Rhinehart was burned and scalded to death and Express Messenger Stahl will die from his injuries. tax law valid. Indiana'? System Sustained by the Highest Tribunal of the Land. Washington, May 28.—The Indiana tax law is valid. That is the decision.of the United States supreme court, the opinion having been rendered by Judge Brewer. Justices Harlan and Brown, however, dissented in oral opinions. The decision means much to Indiana, which by it profits to the extent of several millions of dollars in taxes against railroad corporations which since 1891 have been fighting the enactment. It means equally as much to several other states which nave enacted similar laws. The I questions at issue were, increased assess- ; merits and the methods of making them i by the state board of tax commissioners, ; and the holding good of the law and its I manner of its enforcement requires that I railroads pay into county treasuries vast ] sums for the period covered. Some have : paid the tax willingly, others under proi test and some have refused to pay at all. Now all are on the same tooting, engineer and Fireman Crushed. Acquilla, Tex., May 28.—The engine ‘ ' and six cars of a freight train on the i ! Texas Central railway jumped the track I i here and Engineer John Elliott an 1 ! Brakeman Arthur Woodall were crushed ■ to death beueatli the debris.
