THE IXDIANAPOLTS JOURNAL, SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 19, 1892.

me Q9 at the Bonnng tetslon. Mr. Towderlj in his annual report recommended that National Trade Assembly No. 1S5 (minera) be instructed to withdraw from tbe United Mine-workers of America. A proposition was made to Instruct all Knights cow connected with the federation of Labor to withdraw therefrom. Three years ago tne National Trades Assembly and the Miners' I'roirressiYo Union united and formed tne United Mine-workers of America, and since then it is claimed that tho officers of the united body have treacheronsly used their position to destroy the Knights of Labor part of the joint organization for the advantage of the other part. When the union was formed the Kniahts of Labor part was one and a half times as numerous as the union part. By the manipulation of the oflicers this has been changed, and now the union men largely outnumber the Knights. The General Assembly took up this portion of Mr. Powderly'a report this morning, and it was then proposed to instruct all Kniahts connected with the Federation of Labor to withdraw, borne pretty strong speeches were made in support of this proposition, the general sentiment being that a policy or conciliation had been tried long enough. In the case of the minera it was shown that while the National Trades Assembly had been almost obliterated the union was nothing bnt a skeleton organization on caper. For the purpose of simplifying farther discussion the proposition to compel members to withdraw from the Federation was withdrawn for the present and the discussion was confined to the miners' question. The matter -waa finally referred to the . general eieontire board, with instructions to see that the Interests of the order were considered. The proposition to compel members of the order who also belonjr to unions in the federation to choose between the two was then taken up. The discussion was long and animated, taking up nearly the whole afternoon, nearly every member speaking at leat once. A very strong feeling was shown against the sondnot of the Federation leaders, but the feeling that there was no cause for difference between the rank and file of the two organizations prevailed, and the proposition was voted down by, a Tote of eighty-two to thirty. Representative Bishop, of Massachusetts, obtained consent to introduce a plan of organizing jnnlor assemblies of the order, .and it was unanimously agreed to. The session then adjourned. It is thought that the election of officers will be reached tomorrow. 1I1EQAEET WILL SETTLE DOWN.

Col cn el Patst, the Hcch-T&lked-of Husband , Eajs The j Will Live at Tcrre Haute. Special to the Indianapolis Journal. Terre Haute, Ind Nov.18. Col. Gustavo Pabst, son of the Milwaukee brewer, who waaseoretly married to Margaret Mather , last July, is here and Mr. and Mrs. Mather will make their borne here. Mr. Pabst Las become interested in the firm ofBeggs& llulman, who recently succeeded to the wholesale liquor and rectifying house of II. Hnlman. The business is to be enlarged and the three young men, II. llulman, jr., and Edward Beggs, son of JohnBeggs, the wellknown Indiana distiller, together with Pabst, start in business with big capital behind them. Mr. Pabst says his wife willquitthe stage for good and will soon come here to their home, lie has not bepn home to Milwaokoe to receive his father's blessing since he recently paid a visit to Lis wife in California, where the fact of the rnarriagn became public. Margaret Mather is not yet thirty. As a child she is said to have been a wandering street waif in Detroit, selling trinkets for her livelihood and her mother's. Withal, bers is a romantio story. From Detroit she drifted with the tide that carries so many to the metropolis, and it was while yet a girl of tender years that J. M. Hill, then almost at the height of his managerial glory, was taken with the girl's handsome figure and expressive face. Seeing with the critical eye great possibilities in the obscure child. Hill took her under his wing. Then followed a course of study and thorough dramatictraining that was to prepare her for the wonderful future. It was well along in the eighties when Miss Mather made her debut at Indianapolis. Soon after the whole dramatic world was astounded at the marvel of dramatic ability and remarkable originality displayed by 4he precociousyoung woman who ou fruitlessly interpreted the Juliet of Shakspearrs immortal love story. She was the dramatic sensation of the season. ' From coast to coast, from the border to the gulf, the starring tour of Margaret Mather was without parallel as a financial success. Miss Mather; was versatile. Her accomplishments were not confined to the title role of "Koraeo and Juliet." She essayed with a marked degree of brilliancy all the roles of the Shakespearian category for which her natural talent fitted her. Her Knsalind. in "As You Like It." was pronounced almost as positively a' hit as her Juliet. But success dazzled the lovely and talented young woman. Having tasted the sweets sh grew to forget her benefactor. A quarrel with Mr. Hill fire or six years ago resulted in the termination of their relations. Miss Mather's tlomestio career has been a sad one. Her first husband. Mr. Habercorn. an orchestra leader, she lived with bnt a short time. After a long separation she was divorced from him last June in Chicago. Th bill was tiled by herself, alleging cruelty and desertion. The day after ber divorce she woot to Lakeside. Wis.. and lived for several weeks in almost total eduction in her cottage at the fashionable summer resort, when Ber secret marriaco With Colonel Pabst occurred. RESTLESS RED-SKINS. Over 3,000 Chejennes and Arapahrcs Threaten to Go on ths War-rath. Kansas Citt. Nov. 19. A serioa9 outbreak among the Cheyenne and Arapahoe tribes in the Indian Territory is threattned. and men lamihar with their ways declare that unless prompt action is taken some 3.360 redskins will be on the war-path by Jan. 1. Since July 1 the government has been giving the Indians only half rations, for the reason that they were expected to aid in their own support by cnltivatina their lands. The attempts of the red men in this direction have been miserable failures on account of their ignorance of husbandry, and hundreds of them are in actual distress. The ghost-danco hat been In progress sinoo the appearance of bitting Bull, a distant relative of the jrreat chief killed during the Piue Kidge troubles. C. C. Painter, of Great Barnngton. Mass.. general agent of the Indian nights' Association, an organization ot Eastern men, which takes a philanthropic interest in the welfare of the red men, reached Kansas City to-day ffrora the Cheyenne and Arapahoe country, where he went to investigate the stories of prospective trouble. "The Indians are cross and restless," said Mr. Painter, "ami they are sure to pat on warpaint unless the government gives them food. They are really in a bad plight and have already s uttered from hunger. Besides this, they believe that they were swindled by unscrupulous white men in the sale of their landsv and their feeling toward the government is ouo of intense hatred." Tllden Will Contest Compromised. Special to the Intsaspolla JoarnaL New York, Nov. 18. The trustees of the estate of Samuel J. Tilden report that a settlement between them and -the relatives concerning the dead statesman's will has been arrived at, aud that the original idea of establishing a library and readingroom in this eity for tbeeducation of young men. to be known as the "Tilden Trust," is new actually in bight, and needs only official indorsement The trustees accepted the compromise, and proooe to nse tho interest in the manner contemplated by tho will The flmlth Heresy Case. fpeclal to the Indianapolis JoarnaL Cincinnati, O..Nov. 18.

GLADSTONE'S BILL DOOMED

His Present Dome-Rale Scheme Would Prove Too Costly to Englishmen. Additional Taxes Wtuli Be Necessary to Meet the Great Outlay in Ireland Harcourt Worrying with a Deficit. GLADSTONE'S FLAN TOO COSTLY. His Home Itnle "Would Entail Increased Taxation A Deficit in the Iladget. Copyright. 1902, by the Associate Press. 1 London, Nov. 18. The complacency with which the Cabinet passed the clauses of the bome-rule bill dealing with political, changes in Ireland has broken down on facing tbe iinanoial question. Mr. GladStone displayed his accustomed tact by withholding the fiscal proposals tmtil this week. The lirst the members of the Cabinet heard of them was on Tuesday, wben probably a majority of the Ministers for the lirst time realized that the financial problem was likely to prove a crccial difficulty. Mr. Gladstone himself bas not ventured to present a definite or detailed solution of the question, postponing, with the assent of nis colleagues, tbe clauses relating to finance until the Cabiuct resumes its sittings in January. In the meantime the Minister most perplexed over the question is Sir William Vernon Harcourt, Chancellor of the Exchequer. Under Mr. Gladstone's scheme the cost of administration in Ireland is estimated at an amount which inched nearly the whole of the present revenue of about 7,000,000. Of this sum 4.5U9.000 are now expended locally, while $2,600,000 is the amount of Ireland's contribution for imperial purposes. In preparing the coming budget, Kir William Vernon Harcourt has to encounter a notable deficit in the imperial revenue. If to this deficit the loss of the Irish contributions be made it must involve a recourse to increased burdens upon the liritish tax-payers. The prospect causes dismay among the ministerialists, who know tbe situation aud fear a decisive revolt in their own ranks if they are forced to propose further taxation in order to to lieve tbe new Irish administration. Sir William Vernon Harcourt has been in consultation with Mr. Welby, permanent chief of the treasury, on the dilemma. An official authority says that a revised calculation presented to the Chancellor of tbe Exchequer showed that tbe total loss to the imperial exchequer on the Irish contributions under home-rule would amount to 1.500.000. Even this amount, combined with tbe decreasing revenue in the United Kingdom, will greatly weaken the chances of Liberal acceptance of Mr. Gladstone's project. Free and unlimited drinks and free smoking concerts, at which some sixty electors were each credited with swallowing seven pints of beer at the expense of Mr. Frank James, the Conservative candidate at the recent general election, bavo lost the seat for Walsall to the opposition. The probably grateful residents of Walsall will again return a Conservative, but the success of the Liberal petition against seating Mr. James has taken the gloss off their defeat in attacking Mr. Balfour. Tbe Liberal leaders share in the disgrace of the fiasco resulting from the petition against seating Air. Balfour as the representative of East Manchester. The leaders permitted the case to proceed without a semblance of proof. In accusing the Conservative lendsr of Hoatinginto Parliament on a tide of free beer the Liberals challenged comparison with the courteous con-, duct of the Conservative opponents of Mr. GUdstono and the other Ministers, who refrained from' renewing the electoral cootest upon the Minister taking office. Nothing justified the Manchester petition. The Conservatives seem right in accusing the Liberal xocutiva either with supreme stupidity or malignity. SENATOR JONES TALKS SILVXRlie Says the Free-Coinage Question Had an Important Influence on tho Election. London Nov. 18. The Financial News to-day published an interview with Senator Jones, one of the American delegates to the monetary conference. Senator Jones says that the people in tho United States appreciate the vital importance of tho currency question, while in England many people are ignorant of the rudiments of the matter. There is hardly an American elector who has not formed an intelligent opinion on this subject. It had a most important influence on the last election. In answer to a question as to whether the Democrats would introduce s free-coinage bill in Cod press Senator Jones said: "Yes, they are bound to. Tbe Times affirms that a majority of the new House of Kepresentatives are opposed to free coinage. I feel sure that this is erroneous. On the contrary, there is a two-thirds majority in its favor. It was among the Democrats Of the last House that the supporters of free coinage were found. If you trace theao men to their constituencies you will find that they bave been re-elected. Whether a free-coinage bill is introduced by the Democrats a,nd whether it passes or not are different matters. Mr. Cleveland himself is against freo coinage. It is too soon to say bow far the Democrats will feel the influence of his personality. A great mass of tbe people are benton free cuiuage. Wbv should free coinage tend to depreciate the silver currency? We hear from Indian ot'iiciais much about the depreciation of silver in India, but the Indian gets as much for a rupee in commodities as he ever got. It is not silver that depreciates. It is gold that appreciates. We hear about (treat stocks of 6ilver. Where are they? When yon talk of grain or petroleum you can substantiate your statements. I want the same none in tbo case of silver." The liritish delegates to the international monetary conference will leave tbe Charing Cross station on Sunday evening for Brussels. The delegation is composed of Sir Charles Freeman tie. Sir Charles Rivers Wilsno, Sir William Hounefourth, Betrain Carry and Alford de liothschild , with Sir John Strachey and sir Mulford Molesworth, for India.

Family That Went to the Bad Tbe Cultured Miss Gwyneth. Copyright, 1890. by the Associated Press. London, Nov. IS. A press representative has been enabled in an interview with Mr. H. H. Myers, the solicitor defending Gwyneth Maude, to obtaining a glimpse Into tbe private history of the Maude fanuly.which deepens the romantic interest attaching to the case of Gwyneth and ber mother. Mrs. Maude, who was a cousin of the Maharajah of Mysore, was the only daughter ot an English physician, Dr. Campbell, who was long an attache of the English residency in Mysore, and afterward figured in an importaut official position in Afghanistan. Dr. Campbell married a Mysore princess, who had an immense fortune, which fell, on bis death, to bis daughter. The .daughter msrrird Colonel Maude and camo to England, and her subsequent history is one of continual misfortune, due to reckless living. She squandered enormous sums in continental gambling hells and on the English turf. It appears that she early separated from ber husband, who, bavin retired from the army in an impoverished condition, now conducts, under an assumed name, tho business of a ladies' tailor at the West Eud. Eelated as Mrs. Maude was to a numbtt of noble families, her father beiug a scion of the Argyll Campbells, she managed for years after she had consumed her fortune to lead a fashionable existence on borrowings and credit. Accumulating debts led her to resort to a wholesale system of obtaiuing money by pawning valuables, aud when the crisis finally came there were over forty charges pending against her. in which the hapless daughter was involved. A sheriff's writ of arrest for contempt of court was isaued against Mrs. Maude a few days ago.

Finding her friends no longer responses to her appeals for help, she sought refuse in death. Strong and high influences are now brought to bear to stop the prosecution of Gwyneth, and the eflorte are likely to be successful. Though brought up in doubtful environments. Gwyneth is a highly-cultured girl, of refined manners and extreme susceptibility. Vletory fur Premier Lou bet. Paris, Nov. 18. After a long and exciting debate the Chamber to-day, by a vote of 31 U to 228, decided to discuss the articles of the government bill for the suppression of Anarchist newspapers. The victory of the government is attributed chiefly to Premier Loubet's personal efforts, his firm neps and sincerity. A feature of the division was the fnct that a large number of Kadicals and members of the Left voted for the government, though at tbe outset their attitude was clearly hostile. The majority will probably dwindleduring the discussion of the clauses, but it is expected that the bill will be linally passed. The opposition is directed cbietly against the clause authorizing "preventive'' arrests and con liacation. M a , ( Gladstone' Rarely Escapes Injury. London", Nov. 18. Mr. Gladstone seems to be peculiarly unfortunate in meeting with accidents, but he is equally as fortunate in escaping serious conseanences. As he was crossing Piccadilly last evening be stepped directly nnder tbe heads of a team of borsea attached to an omnibus that waa swinging around a corner. Tbe driver pulled tbe horses back upon their hannchet. Mr. Gladstone was walking rapidly, and to this is due the fact that he escaped injury. The horses or the pole struck him a slight blow on the shoulder. He staggered a short distance, then recovered himself andescaped to the pavement uninjured. Qaeen Victoria In Good Ilealth. London, Nov. 18. The Queen arrived at Windsor Castle from Balmoral, at a quarter past 7 o'clock this morning.

The people of Windsor, who are accustomed to s?eing her, agreo that she looked to be in the best of health. She walked erectly through the station to her carriage. Princess Beatrice accompanied her. Denied by the Vatican. Home, Nov. 18. Word reached here today that it is reported in tbe United States that it is the intention of the Pope, shortly after Mr. Cleveland is inaugurated, to open negotiations for the establishment1 of a papal legation at Washington.

Highest of all in Leavening Power. Latest U. S. Gov't Report

HIS LIFE PERILED BY MAFIA Story Told to the New York Tolice by MarzioGicdice, an Intelligent Italian. Ilotmded by A cents of the Sicilian Band of Assassins, Who Have Poisoned II is Wife, and Want the Life of Himself and Son. New York, Nov. 13. When Antonio Flaecomio was mysteriously 'murdered, in front of the Cooper Union, a few years ago, Superintendent Byrnes, then inspector in charge of the detective bureau, made the discovery that a foreign assassination society known as the Mafia had agents in this country, and that the order was flourishing in several of the cities of the United States. The assassination of Flaecomio was laid at tbe door of the Mafia, bnt the members of that order are so secretly banded together that the murderers have never been arrested. Several arrests were made, hat the arrested parties bad to be lal go. It was Inspector Byrnes who first learned that the Mafia existed here. Now it is known that branches of the secret order are very strong in New York, Boston, Providence. Chicago, St Louis and other cities. It is also known by th authorities that the Mafia was responsible for a number of mysterious murders that hve been committed in this country in recent years. A marked victim of the Mafia has asked for protection at the police headquarters from the agents of the order,' who are sworn to kill him. The man is Marzio Gindioe, an intelligent Italian. He has been to. police headquarters and told hit st!bry of being hounded, and threatened, and warned to detectives Formiso and A 1 once. The former is one of Inspector MoLaughlin's Italian detectives. Gindice asserts that his wife, who died a year and a hail ago, was poisoned by agents of tbe Mafia, robbed and ber body stolen from tbe grave where be bad the remains interred, and buried elsewhere, so that he could not bud it. His wife left property in Italy, he says, and in order to sain possession of this the Mafia ie seeking his life and that of bn eleven-year-old eon. This is not the only reason he gives, however, for tbe Mafia's desire to murder him. The story he told to detective Formiso begins thirty years ago. when he waa a small boy in Italy. His father, be said, ia an Italian nobleman. In 1800 a murder was committed in tbe parish where bis parents lived. His father was a wealthy man. against whom the lower and criminal classes had a great hatred. To cover tip the real murder, his father was arrested aud thrown into' prison, where be was kept for three years, notwithstanding that he was innocent. At the end of threeyears he was let go upon his paying a large -sum of money. Several Italians who were identified with tbe Mafia bore a grudge against tbe elder Gindice, which has been transferred to the son. Marzio came to this country in 1876. He studied pharmacy for three years, and gave op bis studies and never graduated, lie went into business here, making balloons and selling flowers. He traveled all over the country attending fairs, where he eold the articles he manufactured. He says that be bas been bounded now. for several years, aud threatened with death. He bas gone from one place to another to escape assassiuation. Since the death of his wife the agents sworn to kill him have been on his track-mor persistently than ever. Francisco Mortello. a bandit, who is now in Italy, sent three men here to kill him, he says, a few years ago. Tho men. be says, are Augnstrio Mortello. Francisco's brother; Kigo Gindice, Marzio's own step-brother, and another man who is unknown. Mortellio is at the head of tbe Brooklyn Mafia. Marzio formerly lived in Brooklyn. It was there that bis wife died last year. She bad been sick fifteen days. Tbe Mafia, he said, tried to palm oil one of their members as a doctor, but he discovered the fraud. Shortly before bis wife died an Italian priest came to the house and ordered every one out of the room. The priest sent him out for medicine. . While be was gone be alleges that the-priest induoed the dying woman to give him $500. which he said be would send to ber brother Antonio Buone, who is a soldier in tbe Italian array. When . his wife died her body turned a reddish hue, but the attending physician gave a certificate of death from pneumonia. She was buried In the Holy Cross Cemetery, Brooklyn. Later, he says, tho body was taken from the grave without bis Knowledge and removed to another part of the cemetery, where he has never been able to find it. He sajs that his enemies bad the body exhumed. Tbe money which his wife gave to the priest was never sent to her brother. Gindice save that he anew Dotbing of tbe money affair until a few months ago. when' be received a letter from friends in Italy telling him of the confession made oy Luiga Guntrino, an Italian who was living in Brooklyn at the time of bis wife's death and went back to Italy, where he died. Before he died he confessed that Gindiee's wife had been poisoned by agents of the Mafia in order to get her money and property in Italy. He gave the name of the priest who got tbe money, and confessed that it waa not sent to the dead woman's brother. He also confessed that the same persons who canted the death of Mrs. Gindice were sworn to kill ber husband. Gindice told detective Formiso that be went to see th Italian priest, who. be said, was connected with a cbnrch in Brooklyn. He accused him. of keeping the money. The priest, he said, threatened to bave him killed if he said anything more about the matter. He had been warned a number of times siuce that he would be killed if be did not keep quiet. Two years ago, previous to his wife's death, while be was walking along Court street. Brooklyn, he was shot at. tie says that it was an attempt to assassinate him. About a year ago bis eleven-year-old son Michael was slashed across the faoe by some noknown parties, and by some means poison was injected into the wound. The lad recovered, however. He bas the scar on bis face. Gindice says his letters are intercepted, and be is being bounded night and day. Detective Form; no told bim the police would do everything iu their power to protect bim. The case is being investigated by the detectives. Movement of StMmen. New York. Nor. lSw Arrived: Germanic, from Liverpool; Belgenland, from Antwerp; France, from London. Kin1 ale. Nov. 18.
