DENOUNCED THEM
AS ROBBERS
Philadelphia's City Councilmen Ac
cused of Robbery by Angry and
Excited Citizens.
A SCENE OF WILD DISORDER
It Followed the Vote of the Councilmen
to Lease the City's Gas Works for
75 Years for a Total Sum of
s2s.ooo,ooo—Mayor Weaker
May Veto the Scheme.
Philadelphia, May 19. —Amid scenes
of disorder unprecedented in the an
nals of Philadelphia's legislative body,
city councils last night voted to lease
the city's gas works to the United Gas
Improvement Co. .for a term of 75
years, for the total sum of $25,000,000,
the money to be paid in various
amounts before the end of 1007. Coun
cils chambers and committee rooms
were crowded with excited citizens
protesting against the lease to the (las
Improvement Co. from 1 p. m., when
the proceedings opened in the finance
committee room, until after 8 p. m.,
when select council passed the bill and
sent it to the mayor.
The climax was reached when the
vote in common council was announc
ed after three hours of debate. The
moment President George McCurdy, of
the common council, announced the
vote a great uproar was started in the
gallery, which was crowded to the
doors. From all over the gallery came
hisses and cries of "thieves." The
outburst was somewhat startling to
the presiding officer, who made a vain
effort to quell it. Finally he sent for
a squad of police to clear the gallery,
which started the disorder anew. The
crowd continued to hiss and call the
councilmen thieves and other names
until the police arrived and started to
clear the gallery. As the president
moved out they sang uncomplimentary
songs, in clearing the gallery there
were several clashes between the po
lice and some of the spectators, but no
one was hurt.
All through the session of common
council there was disorder. In select
council there were so many policemen
on duty that 110 one dared to interrupt
the proceedings. There was neither a
cheer nor a hiss when the bill passed
that body.
The agitation against the passage of
the bill resulted in common council
amending the measure so as to pro
vide for a slight reduction in the price
of gas. The amendment as adopted
provides that the price of gas from the
date of the lease until January 1,
1011, shall be $1 a thousand cubic feet,
the same as the present price; from
1911 to 1921, 95 cents; from 1921 to
193 C, 90 cents; from 193G to 1950, 85
cents, and thereafter until the expira
tion of the lease in 19S0, 80 cents.
CONFESSIONS WERE BOGUS
A Negro Caused Trouble by Writing a
Letter to a Chief of Police—His Ar.
rest by Postal Officials Followed.
Chester, W. Va.. May 19.—1n a ietter
to the police authorities of this city, a
man signing himself "A. Johnson" and
claiming to be a partner of Henry
Williams, who was recently executed
in Roanoke, Va., has confessed to five
murders and numerous robberies. His
reasons for writing are that other men
have suffered for his crimes and his
conscience troubles him. He says he
has been converted.
Cincinnati, May 19.—Albert John
son, colored, was arrested yesterday in
Newport, Ky., for sending threatening
letters through the mails. The officers
express the belief that lie is the same
man who wrote to the Chester, \V.
Va., chief of police, confessing various
crimts for which other men had been
or were about to be punished. A pos
tal card to James Mooar, son of ('apt.
Luke Mooar, threatening him with
death was turned over to the postal
authorities and led to Johnson's arrest.
Johnson acknowledged writing the
postal and was asked:
"Did you write that letter to the
Chester, \Y. Va.. chief of police?"
"Yes, sir. I did. and every word in
that letter is true," he responded.
Later Johnson retracted his state
ment that he had killed five persons.

KILLED IN THE STREET.
Explosion of a Bomb at Warsaw Re.
suits in the Death of Three Peo
ple and Injury to 23.
Warsaw, Russian Poland, May 20.
A workman who was trying to avoid
the observation of two detectives on
Miodowa street Friday stumbled on
the curb of the sidewalk and a bomb
which he was carrying in his pocket
exploded, killing the workman, both
the detectives and injuring many per
sons who were passing by. It is be
lieved the bomb was intended for Gov.
Gen. Maximovitch, who was expected
to pass the spot on his way to the
cathedral to attend the services in
honor of the czar's birthday.
The number injured by the explo
sion is 23, including three women, one
student and two school boys. One of
the latter is detained at the police
station, having been noticed warning
people against going into Miodowa
street. Many reports are in circula
tion of strangers having stopped poor
ly dressed persons going in that direc
tion. Shopkeepers assert that the
street was unusually empty at the
time of the explosion.
This outrage is the sixth of similar
character in Warsaw since the Janu
ary disturbances. The editors of Pol
ish papers have decided to publish, if
the censor will permit it, strong arti
cles denouncing such attacks.
Gov. Gen. Maximovitch sent his ad
jutant to the hospital with a message
of sympathy for the wounded and of
fered to take care of the injured.
The man who was carrying the
bomb has been identified as a Polish
; shoemaker named Dobrowolski, a
! member of the violent section of the
! socialists. Later reports state that the
j detectives were in the act of arresting
] Dobrowolski when the bomb exploded
! and all three were killed. A revolver
and a bundle of papers were found in
! Dobrowloski's pocket.
Many arrests have been made since
; the explosion and the police are busy
j making domiciliary searches.
It is stated that Gov. Gen. Maximo
; vitch recently received an anonymous
letter threatening that as he had al
! lowed men, women and children to be
shot down on May day, so he would be
| killed with his wife and children,
DEATH PENALTY FOR HOCH
A Notorious Bigamist Is Convicted of
Wife Murder by a Jury at Chicago.
Chicago, May 20. —Johann Hoch,
1 who, by his own confession, is a polyg
' amist and who is charged by the police
| with having married at least 40 wo
j men in the last 15 years, was yester
| day found guilty by a jury of murder
| ing the next to his last wife, Marie
Welcker Hoch, and the death sentence
i was recommended by the jury in
Judge Kersten's court.
Hoch had been married to Mrs.
Welcker only a short time when she
took sick suddenly and died. He then
formed an alliance with the sister of
the daad woman and, securing the sis
ter's money, fled from Chicago. This
Mrs. Hoch told the police that Hoch
had poisoned her sister and a search
j for Hoch was begun. He was found
i two weeks later in New York and
brought back to Chicago and confront
ed by several alleged wives. During
the trial expert testimony was offered
by the state that Hoch poisoned the
woman by administering arsenic.
Yesterday's verdict was reached in
less than half an hour. Three ballots
were taken. The first ballot was
unanimous as to Hoch's guilt and then
a ballot followed as to the punishment
to be inflicted. This ballot showed
ten in favor of the death penalty and
two for life imprisonment. A third
ballot resulted in the 12 jurymen vot
ing for the death penalty.
"Well, I guess its all olf witli Jehn,"
groaned Hoch as the verdict was read
in court. He was greatly affected. He
had sat in a stooping position, but
when the word "death" was read he
turned pale, stared hopelessly at the
jurors and then sank limp in his chair.
Hoch's attorneys will ask for a new
trial, although the condemned man de
clared he was ready to die and would
j be better satisfied if they did not make
an effort to save him.
BUSINESS BULLETIN.
Unseasonable Weather Is the Chief
Cause of Complaint.
New York, May 20. —R. G. Dun &
Co.'s Weekly Review of Trade says:
Unseasonable weather is the chief
cause of complaint, both as to distri
bution of merchandise and agricul
tural development. At many leading
cities retail trade in spring and sum
mer wearing apparel is falling behind
expectations and there is less than the
customary recorded business in whole
sale and jobbing departments.
Although no actual reduction in the
crops is yet assured, sufficient uncer
tainty has appeared to render dealers
in the farming districts somewhat
cautious regarding the accumulation
of supplies beyond current require
ments. Otherwise the trade situation
is satisfactory. Manufacturing activ
ity is fully maintained, the percentage
of idle machinery being smaller than
at any recent date, and the textile in
dustries make notable progress under
the stimulus of advancing raw ma
terials.
Failures this week numbered 231 In
the United States, against 23(1 last
year, and 11 in Canada, compared with
12 a year ago.
