Police Lnte Last Mgrht The
Slob Barricades the
Streets.
BRUSSELS. April 10. Repeated charges
of police and mounted gendarmes with
drawn sabers resulted In the dispersal of
the rioting mobs here early this morning.
During the rioting one policeman was shot
through the body and face. His comrades,
having exhausted their ammunition, fled,
and the wounded man was overwhelmed,
kicked and stoned. Another pollcdtean
sought refuge in the attic of a cafe,
whereupon the royalists sacked the estab
lishment, exploded a lamp, which set fire
to the building, and completed its ruin.
The flames forced the rioters to retire.
Another mob proceeded to the Northern
Railway station, where It collided with the
police. Revolver shots were exchanged,
and the rioters seized a policeman, beat
him untlllie was unconscious and left him
bleeding on the ground. After many
rioters had been wounded, the mob dis
persed. The civic guards of Schearbek and Saint
Josso Ten Ncode, near here, were
ordered on duty thle evening, and
the burgomasters of those two communi
ties have prohibited assemblages In the
streets of more than five people. Lancers
and chasseurs have been dispatched from
3tfons to Charlerol, where trouble Is an
ticipated. The civic guards of La Loue
vler, where buildings were dynamited last
night, have been reinforced by mounted
chasseurs.
A dynamite outrage has been commit
ted at Houdeng Almerlas, in the Province
of Helnaut. Cartridge were exploded
outside the Catholic church, which was
partially wrecked. The Burgomaster of
Liege has made a requisition for artillery
and has called out the civic guards there.
All the troops at Liege are confined to
their barracks.
The Council General of the labor party,
in session here, has decided to issue a
manifesto recommending a general strike
for April 14. A warrant Is about to be
Issued for the arrest of 1L Volkaert, pres
ident of the Society of the Young Social
ist Guard, whose memoers were' promi
nent during the riots of yesterday even
ing, who Is charged with being largely re
sponsible for the disturbances.
Midnight At a Socialist meeting held
In front of the Malson du Peuple this even,
lng the Socialist Deputies Defnt and Del
bastee advised the workmen present to be
prepared for a general strike next Tues
day. After the meeting the Socialists pa
raded the streets of the city, smashing the
-windows of churches and cafes, firing re
volvers and singing revolutionary songs.
There were several collisions with the po
lice and the civic guards, who were forced
to use their bayonets and the butts of
their rifles on the rioters. Several of the
latter were injured and" others were ar
rested, but. on the whole, the riots today
were milder than those of yesterday.
Every window In the residence of Sena
tor Count Demorrode has been smashed.
Rioting has also occurred at Ghent and
I4ege. where meetings In favor of a gen
eral strike have been held.

du Peuple. The first encounter took place
in the Rue des .Mlnlmes, where the mob
pelted the police with cobblestones. The
police then charged with fixed bayonets,
and. as a result three men were severely
and several others slightly wounded. The
mob then proceeded to the Rue Stevens, in
front of the Malson du Peuple, where a
6tlll more serious conflict occurred. Over
100 shots were fired from both sides. The
women and children were wounded here,
and they, together with the men injured,
were taken Into the Malson du Peuple.
Toward midnight this district of Brussels
had the appearance of a city In revolt.
The rioters had torn up the street-car
rails and erected a sort of barricade to
fortify their position at the Malson. By
strenuous efforts the police managed to
clear the Rue Stevens, but the Malson du
Peuple was left In possession of the riot
ers. Army Sympathises "With Socialists.

RELATIONS ARE SEVERED.
Italy and Switzerland in a Row Over
an Anarchist "Publication.
BERNE. Switzerland, April 10. Diplo
matic relations between Switzerland and
Italy have been ruptured. This action
arises from the refusal of Switzerland to
give satisfaction regarding an article
published in Geneva, insulting the memory
of the murdered King Humbert. The
Bundesrath has sent the following com
munication to Parliament:
"Regrettable misunderstandings have
occurred 'between us and Slgnor Silves
trelll, the Italian Minister. We have felt
constrained to request the Italian Govern
ment, In the interests of the good rela
tions of the two countries, to recall Slgnor
Sllvestrelll. The Italian Government hav
ing refused to do so, we broke off rela
tions with Slgnor Sllvestrelll. whereupon
the Italian Government, on its part, has
broken off relations with our Minister
at Rome. We shall publish the documents
relating to this conflict."
The article which led to the references
appeared in an anarchist sheet, published
in Geneva. Slgnor Sllvestrelll demanded
that the authorities prosecute the paper,
but the Swiss Government replied It could
not act without a complaint being form
ally lodged by the Italian Government.
Italy declined to adopt this course and
the correspondence following finally led
to the rupture of diplomatic relations.
Suppression of Irish League.
BELFAST, ' Ireland, April 10. The
Evening Telegraph, of this city, says it
believes Lord Londonderry, the Paymaster-General
and a member of the British
Cabinet, at a meeting of the Conservative
Association of Belfast tomorrow will an

policy In Ireland, including the suppres
sion of the United Irish League.

JUDGE KIELY RESIGNS.
Vacancy- on the International Court
at Cairo.
"WASHINGTON, April 10. Anthony M.
Klely, who for the past 16 years has rep
resented the United States on the Inter
national tribunal In Egypt, has resigned
that office. His resignation is designated
to the Khedive of Egypt, who makes the
appointments to the tribunal upon the
nomination of the powers party to the
agreement of 1S78, and It has not yet been
communicated officially to the United
States Government. A number of appli
cations for the vacancy have been made.
Members must have a knowledge of
French, Italian or Arabic, must be skilled
lawyers,- and a knowledge of the code
Napoleon Is desired, the proceedings of
the tribunal being conducted under that
legal system.
George S. Bacheller, -who is now a mem
ber of the court of first Instance of Cairo,
Is strongly urged for the position on the
court of appeals Just vacated by Judge
Klely. Judge Bacheller was appointed a
member of the court by President McKln
ley in 1S97, having previously been one of
the assistant secretaries of the treasury.
The resignation of Justice Klely is un
derstood here to have been due to the
death of his wife. Since her death the
scenes which were associated with so
large a part of their happy married
life have become depressing to Klely,
and he determined to seek relief in
travel. He will go shortly to London,
where he is a' member of a number of
clubs and has many friends.
Judge Klely came into National promi
nence ' through his nomination, by Presi
dent Cleveland In 1685 as Envoy Extraor
dinary and Minister Plenipotentiary to
Italy. He Is a native of New Jersey,
but at the time of his appointment he
had been for many years a resident of
Virginia. His appointment as Minister
to Italy was cancelled on account of the
objections' of the Italian Government.
He was then accredited by President
Cleveland as Minister to Vienna. The
Austrian Government also declared him
persona non grata.
Secretary Bayard addressed a note to
the Austrian Government, in which he
commented on the unreasonableness of
race and religious distinctions. To relieve
the Administration of President Cleve
land of further embaraesment, Mr. Klely
resigned.
He was later appointed by President
Cleveland to the International court at
Cairo, and has served In that court con
tinuously since that time.

THE DETROIT MURDER
MUSIC TEACHER SUSPECTED
, KILLING CARRIE JENNETT.
OF
Bloodstains Found on Ills Clothes
and a Bloody Hatchet DIscov
, ered in His Home.
DETROIT, April 10. What tho police
consider to be a strong link in the chain
of clrcums'tantlal evidence that they are
weaving about Professor Joseph M. Mil
ler, aged 47, a music teacher and a mar
ried man with a family, who Is under ar
rest on suspicion of brutally murdering
Miss Carrie M. Jennett, on Thirteenth
street. Just before midnight last night,
was discovered. It was a blood-stained
hatchet, which was found In the drawer '
of a table In Miller's kitchen. Professor
Miller was the girl's music teacher, and
had paid her such marked attentions tnat
her father had asked him to keep away
from the house. When be was examined
at the police station this jnornlng, what
are believed to be bloodstains were
found on his shirt sleeves, his trousers,
hat and overcoat. A towel was also dis
covered in his kitchen with what arc
supposed to be bloodstains on it. When
he was asked for an explanation for the
stains on his clothing he gave none.
Miss Jennett was 22 years old, and
would have become" a mother In a few
months.
Miller left his house last evening to at
tend a lodge meeting on Baker street,
and returned about 11:20 o'clock, appar
ently jcool and undisturbed. He alleges
that he did not leave the meetlnc until
11 o'clock, but several persons who werel
mere say he left between 10 and 10:20
o'clock. The murder was committed at
five minutes after 11 o'clock, as near
as the police can learn.
Carrie M. Jennett lived at 1191 Wabash
avenue, and was the daughter of James
R. Jennett, a cabinet-maker. The girl
attended a meeting of a Rebekah
Lodge, and left there about 10:15
o'clock. Less than two hours Jater
her body was found. William Du
art. who lives on Fifteenth street,
called at the dead girl's home this morn
ing and said that he had kept company
with her for two or three years. He
wept and. displayed much agitation. The
police have detained him at the Grand
River Avenue station. He is merely held,
the police say, a a possibly valuable wit
ness, and not as a suspect.
The dead girl was organist of
the Rebekah Lodge, to which she be
longed, and at .the meeting last night
she Is said to have been cheerful, and
even gay. Miss Jennett mnde a report
relative to her work in the lodge. At 10
o'clock she rose and said:
"I don't se what further use you have
for me. and I guess I'll. go home."
"Walt for us and you'll have com
pany," said one of those present, but
j the poor girl Insisted on going, and went
away atone, xne otners stayed mere un
til 11 o'clock. The father and mother of
the murdered girl sat up late for her
return, but finally went to bed, leaving
the door unlocked. When they arose this
morning they found that Carrie's bed was
untouched. The father hastily left the
house and on the street met a married
sister of the dead girl, who Informed
him that Carrie had -been murdered. The
old man then went to the morgue and
Identified the mangled and bloody re
mains as those of his daughter.
When the police learned that Miller and
Mire Jennett had been -well acquainted
and that he had given her music lessons,
Captain Baker went to the house. Miller
took the announcement of the girl's death
coolly, and asked no questions regarding
the murder. Captain Baker finally de
cided to take him Into custody. When
placed In .the sweat-box at the police sta
tion he had himself under control, and
answered all questions apparently in a
straightforward manner.
The officers then asked him to take off
his coat and vest, and then one of the
most dramatic events known to the police
took place. With great reluctance the
music teacher removed the garments. The
officers took off his celluloid cuffs and
rolled up the wristbands of his white shirt.
On the inf-lde of these were found blood
stains. When the officers looKed to Miller
for an explanation, the unhappy man
turned deathly white and fell on the floor
in a fainting flt. He was restored to
consciousness, and was led to a cell, on
the way to which he fainted again.
Blood stains were also found on his trous
ers. Some were on his overcoat and
more on his hat. The hat, a derby, had
evidently been washed, but not sufficient
ly, as blood crystals wee. positively iden
tified. Captain Baker went Into the cell with
him after he had recovered somewhat
from the fainting condition, and spoke to
him. Miller looked up and said: "I know
nothing about the matter."

forts early today toward running down the
slayer of Miss Jennett, a second brutal
murder was discovered. The body of
George Henry Heywood was found lying
In a pool of blood on the sidewalk on
Amherst street, a half block west of
Junction avenue, at 5:30 o'clock this morn
ing, a deep gash over the left eye, from
which the brains oozed, telling the cause
of death.
Hcyw&od was head bookkeeper at the
Michigan Malleable Iron "Works, and at
tended a dance at Baker Hall corner of
Baker and Seventeenth streets, last night.
'His wife had Intended o accompany him,
but was ill and gave" It up. It Is not
known what time- he started home, but
he was found within 100 yards of his home
and had evidently been dead some hours.
As her husband did not return during
the night, Mra. Heywood was very much
alarmed, and arising early ehe 6ent her
oldest boy, Earl, aged 12, out to see If he
could And any trace of his father. TheJ
little" chap had gone but a short distance
from the house when he discovered the
lifeless remains of the parent. The hody
was removed to the morgue and placed
beside tho remains of Miss Jennett. An
examination of Heywood's body and
clothes showed that robbery was not the
motive. There was. an ugly wound In
the skull.
Detectives arrested William F. Jones,
a roomer ln Heywood's house. The two
men are said to have quarreled frequently.
About T5 feet from where the bedy was
found fi. revolver lay In the alley. The
Heywood boy Identified It as belonging
to Jones.
At the station Jones was examined as
to his relations with the Heywood family.
He said his home Is In Lincoln, Neb.,
where he has a wife and three children.
He said he first became acquainted with
the: Heywoods about five years aco. He
has been boarding there since last Feb
ruary. There was a freshly discharged cart-
ridge in the revolver found in the alley.
Dr. Welbaker, who examined Heywood's
body, is of the opinion that the wound
was inflicted by a revolver held at very
close range.
The police admit tonight that they have
not reached a solution of the murder.
Jones was still In custody tonight, al
though a "sweat-box" examination last
ing all day and this evening failed to
bring from him any damaging admissions.
Mrs. Heywood, who was escorted to po
lice headquarters at noon and closely ex
amined this afternoon and evening, was
permitted to return to her home tonight.
The officers say that no information was
secured from her that would help Identify
her husband's slayer.
Heywood's murderer first shot him and
then crushed In his forehead with some
heavy Instrument. The bullet entered be
hind his right ear, and itself would have
caused death. The murderer apparently
then stooped over his victim and dealt
him an awful blow on the forehead.
