procured an excellent likeness. Copies were mailed to Chicago police headquarters. Arrangement have wen made here toy Chief-justice Taylor to have Burke's rase argued before one of tho best judges on the bench. A magistrate has no jurisdiction in a case of extradition. So Burke must go before a Queen's Bench judge. He is in constant communication with hislaw.yer. and is preparing to fight the case and to resist extradition. It is likely that the best legal talent in the city will bo employed in the interest of the prisoner. It has been quietly intimated that money will bo furnished Bnrke. Bnrke himself has given out this intimation." ANOTTtEH SUSPECT.

The Police limiting for a Man Who Is Said to Be One of the Principal. CniCAGO, Juno 19. An entirely new Cronin suspect is being looked for to-night. His name is Michael Cooney, and he has an odd sobriquet "The Fox." Cooney and Bnrke are claimed to be the two men who actually killed Cronin. Both are Clan-na-Gacl men, members of camp No. 20. Cooney is a brick-layer ry trade, and, like Burke, camo here from Ireland only a few years ago. Burke's number in camp No. 20 was 103 and Cooney's 109. Each is described as an enthusiast on Irish matters, and particularly bitter regarding the British spy system, which, possibly, their personal experience had given them, as they considered, good cause to detest. According to the best information obtainable to-night, little hone was to be entertained of the arrest of Cooney immediately, if atalL There was a feeling, apparently, that he had been given too long a start, and was already in some safe retreat State's Attorney Longenecker allowed it to bo inferred that he has two witnesses who will swear that Cooney and Burke slept in the Carlson cottage several days prior to the tragedy, and even that the two suspects were seen leaving tho cottage the fatal night of May 4. at 11:30. Both are said to have proceeded to a saloon in tho vicinity and drank heavily. Cooney's sobriquet is not given to him because of any physical peculiarities. 'The Fox" is the name of a humorous ditty of interminable length which Cooney was wont to sing, and through which he become somewhat widely known. The information regarding him.it should be understood. is not official, but neither the chief of police nor the State's attorney, it is claimed, deny that the reports as given are correct. The CI i arch and the Clan-na-GaeL Baltimore, June 19. It is given out from a source that has always been regarded as very cloae to Archbishop Gibbons that the developments concerning the Clan-na-Gael that have been brought out by the murder of Dr. Cronin In Chicago will, without delay, receive the very serious consideration of the highest authority of the Catholic Church in the United States. To quote the words of the chancellor of one of the largest dioceses of the country, who stands close to the cardinal, and who was summoned to Baltimore within a few days: "The church will await the developments of the civil authorities in its investigation of the Cronin conspiracy before it will take any action. If it should oe developed that the Clan-na-Gacl is in any way responsible for this deplorable affair I have no doubt that such steps will be taken as will warrant the order being condemned by name by all the archbishops of the country. The duty of the church is very plain in the matter, and its line of action is clearly marked out by the decrees of the third plenary council." Thinks the London Times Is Interested. London, June 19. Mr. Laboucherc, writing in Truth about the charges against Alexander Sullivan, says that everything that the Times (which has an agent and banking account in Chicago) can do to prejudice the public against Mr. Sullivan will be effectively done; first, because Mr. Sullivan advised Patrick Egan respecting information sent to England regarding the Farneli forgeries; and, second, because ho selected Father Dornay to convey across the ocean the documents which smashed the Times's case. Mr. Labouchere says the assertion that Mr. Sullivan misapplied funds intrusted to him is known to be absolutely nntrue. He thinks it probable that these charges have been brought against Mr. Sullivan in order to compel tho production of the books of the American League, just as the forgeries were published, in order to obtain an inquiry into the Irish League's finances. THE CONSTELLATION SAFE. She Is Tailed from Her Sandy Bed and Towed Into Harbor No lives Lost. Norfolk, Va., June 19. The United States practice-ship Constellation, which, left Annapolis, Md., for her summer cruise, and stranded in Chesapeake bay, near Cape Henry, yesterday afternoon, arrived at the Norfolk navy -yard this evening at 7 o'clock. At daylight this morning the wrecking steamer Victoria J. Peed, which had gone from Norfolk to tho rescue of the Constellation, laid anchors and cables from the vessel, and made all necessary preparations for hauling when the tide served. The opportune moment arrived at 12:20 this afternoon, when, with a strong pull on her hawsers, the big ship was drawn from her sandy bed into deep water. She was at once taken in tow for Norfolk, and as she came up the harbor this afternoon she was greeted by waving of handerchiefs and cheers from the crowds who had gathered to welcome her. All on board are well. Vessels Given Up for Tost. Baltimore, June 19. 411 hope has been abandoned for the safety of the masters and crews of the Baltimore schooner Brooxxe Belle, Rockesand the Providence brig Rachel Coney. The Rockes sailed from Fcrnandina, Fla., for Baltimore April 2, with lumber. It is supposed she was run down by some largo vessel during the gale of April 7, while others think she and the brig Rachel Coney were in collision, as the latter must have been off tho roast on her way from Trinidad to Washington. The captain of the Brooxxe Bello was Captain Tall, of Baltimore, with Samuel C W. Wilsor, cook and steward, and seamen C. Andersen, of Sweden; A. Aileson and Andrew Olsen, of Norway; Charles Rosenthal, of Germany. The brig Rachel Coney was commanded by Capt Chan. Basham. of Baltimore: E. J. Telloe, of Baltimore, mate: Frank McNeil, of North Carolina, cook and steward: James Feuegan, boatswain. The, seamen were A. Petersen, of Sweden, and Harry Hood, of Germany.

Official and estimated returns from every county in the' State show that the prohibition amendment was defeated by 1S8.449 majority. Reports from all but twelve counties show a majority of 146.9W against the amendment providing for the repeal of the poll-tax rjnaliiication. The majority against it will be still further increased. Washington, Dec. 19. In speaking of the vote yesterday on the prohibition amendment in Pennsylvania. Postmastergeneral Wanamaker said, to-dav, that he was not surprised that the amendment had been defeatrd. He had expected tho result He was surprised, however, at the magnitude of the vote, and had not anticipated that the majority against the amendment would be so large. Presto! Change!

Important Capture of Membersofa Band of Horse-Thieves NearYincennes. A Sensitive Girl's Suicide Kesulta of Election Fighting The Northern Indiana Orphans' Home High ay Robbery. INDIANA. Capture of Alleged Horse-Thieves, Who Are fcald to Be Operating in Several States. Special to the Jmli&u&poUa Journal. Vincennes, June 19. The poliw have been working on a band of horse-thieves which have been operating in Indiana and Illinois lately, and have succeeded in landing William Campoo, tho supposed leader, in jaiL During the past week an aver age of one horse per night has been taken from farmers in this vicinity. One Henry Boggerly, arrested two days ago at McLeansboro, 111., on a charge of burglary, had in his possession a horse and buggy which he claimed to have bought of CamEoo. On being questioned by the authorities e said Comnoo and three others were doing the stealing around Vincennes, Ind.; that there were others of the band plying their vocation in Illinois. Last night officer McCarthy captured a horse from a strange young man who failed to give a proper account of himself. There are now three horses in charge of the police pending their identification by owners. Hydrophobia Troubles at Danville. EjeclAl to the ImllaniDolla Journal. Danville, June 19. The mad-dog sensation continues to occupy much public attion here. The death of the Adams child has aroused an uncompromising warfare npon the dogs. The town marshal's gun may be heard at any hour of the day, and of late he has carried his crusade far into the night, abducting dogs from their homes, at the instancoof owners who wish to spare the feelings of the children, and dispatching them surreptitiously. The officer, this morning, reported forty-six dogs shot, besides several poisoned by their owners. The interest in the Adams case has brought out more information and developed some cases of rabies and attacks upon children and animals not before made public. Obe Underwood, a farmer, living west of town, started, this morning, with his little daughter, to Terre Haute to test the virtues of the mad-stone. The family dog bit the child some time ago, and the parents say the dog acted strangely, though not apSarently under rabies symptoms: but they o not wish to take any chances. Three cats have been sacrificed in the last day or two, supposed to be rabid. A cow died lately with strong hydrophobic symptoms. Word comes from Brownsbnrg, in the north part of the county, that a few nights ago a mad dog ran amuck through the neighborhood, biting twenty-four hogs belonging to Thos. Corliss, several head belonging to Isaac Noah, and some cattle on tho farms of Henry Eaton and Alexander Arbuckle. At the latter place the dog was pursued and killed. The value of the stock oitten daring this raid is estimated at $1,000. George W. Blanton. of New Winchester, whose thumb was badly mangled by a mad dog last fall, has thus far escaped the hydrophobia, though it is said the thing has so preyed upon his mind that he has grown thin and haggard and at times shows mental weakness. He has lately returned from a trip to Illinois, with hi condition little improved. Tho phvsicians think he is in no real danger, unless his fears may bring on some f onn of the rabies. Alleged Spite Work. Bpecial to tho Indianapolis Journal Crawfordsville, June 19. Hon. H. M. LaFollette, State Superintendent of Public Schools, was arrested in this city yes terday on a charge of assault and battery, preferred by one Robert E. Patterson. The facts are reported to ns as follows: Pattereon has sued Charles T. Nicely, alleging that ho had induced his Patterson's wife to leave him. she being a sister of Nicely and a cousin of LaFollette's. Notice had been served to take the deposition of Mrs. Patterson at the residence of Rev. S. Plunkett to be used in the suit. Mr. La Follette, being in the city, went to the house of Plunkett about the hour for taking the deposition, and, at the request of Mrs. Patterson, accompanied her into the room where the deposition was to be taken. Patterson was in the room with his attorney, and stepped toward his wife, proffering her his hand. At the same time LaFollette said to him that he need not annoy his wife in that way, as she did not wish to speak to him. and at the same time reached his hand in the direction of Patterson to pick up a chair and sit down on. Upon these facts Patterson, so soon as the deposition was finished, went before Justice Ramsey and filed an affidavit against LaFollette for assault and battery. There were some seven or eight persons in tho room at the time, every one of whom, it is said, will testify that LaFollette did not touch Patterson, and made no attempt whatever to tonch him, and that what he said to him was said in the most pleasant manner. Mr. LaFollette gave bond for his appearance on Monday next, when the trial will take place. The filing of the affidavit, in all probability, will turn out to have been a piece of malignant spite work. Ousted for Failure to File Bond. Enecl&l to the Indianapolis JournaL Bloomfield, June 19. On the first Monday in June the township trustees of Greene county met and appointed William M. Moss, editor of the Bloomfield Democrat, county superintendent of public schools. The newly-elected officer failed to file the special bond under the new law, upon which failure the office, the law says, "shall become immediately vacant and the board of commissioners shall immediately appoint some competent and suitable person to till 6uch vacancy for tho unexpired term of his office." Pursuant to that Democratic law, the board of commissioners met to-day and appointed Harvey E. Cushman, a young Republican, to till the vacancy. Cushman is a young teacher, moral and upright, and fully qualified for the position to which he has been appointed. A lively time is anticipated before Moss is ousted and Cushman assumes full control. Northern Indiana Orphans Home.

GOV. BEAVER'S COMMISSION,

They Visit Johnstown and Provide for 500 Eeady-Made Houses Dissatisfied Workmen. Johnstown, June 19. The visit of Governor Beaver and the flood commission to this place to-day has borne practical fruit The visitors met the finance committee of the citizen's relief committee at Alma Hall and discussed the situation in all its details. The commission expressed itself as amazed at the extent and completeness of the devastation, and pledged itself to render the citizens of the place all. the aid in its power. The local committee presented most of their wants, and after canvassing the demands the commission authorized the immediate purchase, on their arrival, of 600 of the Chicago ready-made houses, on its account, and also the erection of all the store buildiugs that may be asked fat local merchants. The Governor and commission proceeded immediately to their special train upon the adjournment of the conference, and departed for Cresson. From that place they will start for a trip through the other devastated districts of the State. A big strike is imminent among tho laborers employed upon the pnblio works here. Trouble has been brewing for several days in consequence, not only of the scarcity of the food supply, but of the poor quality of the rations furnished, as well as dissatisfaction with the pay. This trouble culminated to-night at a meeting of the Booth and Flrnn men, who areespesially dissatisfied. They appointed a committee of five to wait upon Gen. Hastings and request his good offices on their behalf. The committee called upon the General and made a long statement of their grievances. They claim that they had had nothing to eat since morning, and that the food they do get is of an inferior quality. They also say that, although they engaged to do tho work at the rate of $1.50 per day, they are required to work on the drift at night without extra pay, when: they are entitled to an extra day's pay for the same. They also claim that they should have $1.75 per day, and requested General Hastings to intercede with their employers in their behalf, threatening to strike if their demands are not complied with. General Hastings promised to bring tho matter to the attention of the contractors, but told them that was all he could do. It is generally believed that the action taken presages a general strike unless the demand for $1.75 is conceded. The morgue reports to-day show twelve bodies recovered. They are badly decomposed and unidentified. Defending the Hungarians. Flttshurg Special. Joseph Stefanko, a well-educated Hungarian, who was employed at Johnstown before the flood, is in this city, having come from New York, where he is at present engaged in business. Mr. Stefanko goes to Johnstown to gather up data in refutation of the stories published concerning the alleged outrages committed by the Hungarians, and tho reported lynching. Mr. Stefanko was appointed at a public meeting of Hungarians held in New York, Juno 15. The meeting discussed tho stories published, and immediately set about doing all in their power to refute them, as they knew them to be false. On Mr. Stefanko's return a meeting will be held. This will bo next Friday, and citizens of al I countries will bo asked to make addresses. Steps will then be taken to h:ive the reports corrected and the wronged people set right in public opinion. Tiie Hungarian race, according to Mr. Stefanko. has .XX),000 representatives in this country. This immigration has taken place within ten years, and he snjs they leel very proud of the progress the people have made. There are among them about twelve churches :nd fifty societies of a benevolent nnil political character. Tho Huns aro not bad at heart and are not half so ferocious ns represented, tho gentleman says. It is because they do not know the law and languatre of the country that they aro considered barbarous. Ho prophesies a future for the race as American citizens when they com to nnderstanti the principles of the country in whieh they live. "We were once in much better repute with your native-born countrymen," said Mr. Stefanko to a reporter. ',:md it seems that instead of improving in popularity we are just iroing the other way. Kosciusko and his bold warriors did noble work for the infant American colonies, and tp better educated Hungarians hope to see tho day wiien .merira can iwpenu upon our iciiowcountryinen for a like service in case of emergency.''

Celestial Barbers Scraping: Skull and Cheeks Without Soap or Water. Boston Globe. The barber was a greasy-looking "Chink,n , clad in a dirty blue blouse, the customary wide Chinese trousers and straw slippers, lazily dozing on a bunk .at one side 01 the room. At the 6ight of customers he straightened np and rubbed his eye The first customer ' seated himself in ' a ordinary wooden , kitchen chair, whib " barber placed a cloth about his shtnl The razor was then sharpened and ' aaving began. The razor looked a t deal like those used by ordinary barbers, except that tho blade was very short and thick, and of a dull color, which would lead one to believe that it was made of iron instead of steel. Commencing at the top of the Celestial's head: near the queue, tho barber carefully scraped all around the skull, going over it several times, until the ton of the Chinaman's head shone like a billiard ball. Not a particle of water was used, and as the razor was forced along, cutting the hair, it was accompanied by a harsh, grating sound. After the head, the face was shaved all over, even to tho upper portion of tho : cheeks, where not a hair was visible, aud nnder the eyes. This portion of tho operation took over a hall hour, and tho most difficult part of tho shaving was yet to come. Laying aside tho razor used on the face and head, the barber produced an oddsnapeu 111110 Knno wuu a long uauutc. Then, tipping his customer's head back, he proceeded to shave inside his nostrils carefully, cutting one hair at a time. Then came the inside of tho ears, which wero treated in the same manner, except that a different razor was used. After finishing shaving the ears, both the nostrils and the inside of the ears wero carefully brushed out with a small camel's hair brush. What followed was by far the most delicate portion of the whole performance. Taking out another razor, which looked something like a doctor's lancet, tho barber proceeded to shave the eyes. The eyebrowa wero carefully gone over, then tho edges of the lids were scraped until not a vestige of tho tye-winkcrK'' remained. Finally tho barber took the lid between his thnmb and forelinger, twisted it over his linger so that the inside was exposed, then shave all over the inside surface of both the urperand under portions of the eyelids. After brushing out the eyes ho combed out, oiled aud braided the queue, took oil the cloth from his customers shoulder. Then ho looked around and said "Next." A Queer Decision. Philadelphia Press.
