Death Comes Suddenly to Lawrence Barrett, the Actor. A COLD KKsrr IN PNEUMONIA. His Cniiilltioii Imported Favorable on Triilay Al'ti'i-noon, but it Cluing for tlie Worse Oi'eurreil in levelling, Fol- IOWIMI liy Hi'iu-t Failure ami Death. NEW YORK. March Barrett, the actor, died at 10:45 o'clock at the Windsor hotel.

The death was due to heart failure and was quite sudden. His wife and his physician were with him when he died. Mr. Barrett's illness dates from Wednesday night when he was compelled to leave the theatre where he was engaged. It was Baid at the time that he was merely suffering from a severe cold and vould be out in a few days.

Even yesterday the reports of his condition were very favorable. Late in the evening, however, his physician. Dr. Chambers, was summoned. Heart failure, duced by pneumonia, was the direct cause of the great tragedian's death, Dr.

Chambers says pneumonia set in Thursday morning. Mrs. Barrett, who was in Boston, was sent for and arrived Thursday evening. Dr. J.

P. Oliver of Boston. Mr. Barrett's family physician, was also summoned and came on at once. A consultation was held and it was decided that Mr.

Barrett's case was serious, but that if, no other complications appeared the sick m-m might pull through. Between ii and 10 o'clock there was a rapid change for the worse and at the latter hour Mr. Barrett was in a semi-conscious condition. About fifteen minutes before the end came Mr. Barrett was entirely unconscious and so he remained until he died.

The funeral will probably take place in Boston. Edwin Booth was deeply moved when he received the notice of Mr. Barrett's death. Denouncing Moore iiml Cockrell.

NEW YORK, March report that the Union Pacific management was arranging for a blanket mortgage and a consolidation of the bonds of branch lines was an absorbing topic of discussion on Wall street. A. United Press reporter asked Sidney Dillon if there was any truth in the story, and he replied; "Well, matters are drifting that way, We are talking of a blanket mortgage of the whole system, but have reached no decision in the matter as yet.

How a Wealthy Citizen of Detroit "Was Kidnaped from His Own Door and Forced to Put Ills signature to Check and Crimes. NEW YORK, March thousand Italians crowded the big hall of Cooper Union to denounce the lynching of their brethren in New Orleans.

As many more were unable to gain admittance, and an overflow meeting was held outside in a drizzling rain. Signor A. De Algelo presided at the in -door meeting, and on the platform were seated about two hundred prominent Italian merchants and business men of the city. The speeches were nearly all in the Italian tongue, and were almost terrifying in their sentiment. The senti ment that the Italian race demanded satisfaction for the killing of their countrymen seemed to express the opinion of the meeting, and was vigorously applauded.

Tho meeting was orderly in every respect, and the large force of police present had little to do. An air of suppressed excitement, however, seemed to pervade the meeting. The committee charge realized this, and it must be said to their credit that they took every precaution to avoid trouble. That there was danger from this source was evidencedjust as the meeting was about to close. Several persons in different parts of the hall arose and asked to be allowed to speak.

This request was promptly refused by the chuirmau. The agitators then appealed to their fel lows, asking them if they meant to sit there inactive, and urging thern to avenge the wrongs done in New Orleans. The instant they began to talk in this way those in charge sprang from the platform into the aisles and urged the audience to be quiet and orderly. Meanwhile the police had taken the riot inciters in hand and hustled them from the hall. It was a critical moment and bloodshed would have followed had not the committee and police acted so promptly.

All the speakers were unanimous in protesting against the massacre and were emphatic in the demand that justice be meted out to those who were guilty of the coward ly crime. At the close of the speaking the following resolutions were offered and unanimously adopted: Kesolved, That the American citizens of Italian birth and extraction, assembled in niassineei of indignation, do hereby appeal and apply to the authorities of thi United States for the apprehension and immediate punishment of the signers of the manifesto which called out the mob, and of all and every participant in the assassination of the innocent, uuarmed anil unprotected Italians while confined in the parish jail on Saturday hist: and Resolved, That all Italians of New York wait with calmness anil firmness the reparation which our government has requested from this republic, and that full iustico be made in this ease, according to the constitutional laws of the United States. A Wealth)' Man's Ijxpe-i'lcuoc-. DETROIT, March Perrein, the wealthy proprietor of the Gratiot flour mills, who was so myster iously kidnaped Thursday night has returned home safe and sound. He says that upon entering the coup his suspicions were not aroused until he noticed the vehicle turn into the opposite direction to his friend's house.

He then threw open the door and attempted to jump out. He was mot by two masked men who held revolvers to his head and forced him back into the cab, they fol lowing. They then bound, gagged and blindfolded him, the cab keeping on what seemed its interminable course the while, under which circumstances Mr. Perrein was unable to keep any idea of the locality in his mind. He was finally removed from the cab to a room, where his captors released him from his bonds, and, covering him with revolvers forced him to write the check, promissory note, and letters.

The latter were dictated from type-written copies in the hands of his captors, who remained masked and disguised. Late in the afternoon his captors informed him that "their game was up," but that "they would get him next time." He was then rebound, gagged and blindfolded and conducted from the room. Their course seemed to lay over a plowed field, after passing which they enteral a cab and another long roundabout drive was commenced. At last Perrein was unloosed and thrust from the cab in a dazed condition, and before he recovered himself the cab had disappeared. He finally located himself as being at the corner of Myrtle and Thirteenth streets, and boarding a street car reached his home at 8:110 p.

in. His captors did not harm him in any way nor touch his valuables. He was furnished with good food and treated with consideration during his captivity. His story is accepted as absolutely true and the police are making every effort to locate the perpetrators of the outrage, Train Wrecking for Ainimcuicut.

Found Guilty of the Murder of Mrs. Deferred. CAMDEN. N. the court reconvened in the evening it was announced by the jury that they had found Lingo guilty of murder in the iirst degree.

Lingo heard the verdict without showing any emotion. Sentence was deferred and Lingo was taken back to jail. His counsel will appeal the case. The verdict was a surprise, as it was generally supposed there would be a disagreement. The result, however, gives general satisfaction.

The crime lor which Lingo was convicted was the brutal assault and murder of Mrs Miller, the wife of a prominent farmer. The young woman was waylaid at a lonely place on the road, outraged and then murdered. Lingo, who had worked for Farmer Miller, was suspected of the crime and was arrested. The evidence on which he was convicted was wholly circumstantial, ijingo, it will be remembered, is the same man who was suspected of murdering Annie Leconey about two years ago.

The girl said a tramp entered the house, stole the goods, and then ate his dinner and left. Yesterday Miss Berk, who is but years of age, made a confession.

She said that the alleged tramp was J. H. Witherspoon, a superintendent in the employ of the Pleasant Valley street railroad of Allegheny City, who entered the house disguised as a tramp. Miss Berk and Witherspoon planned the robbery, ate dinner in the house, and to give credence to the tramp story, Witherspoon on leaving tied the girl. Witherspoon was arrested.

And Retard Collections, Yet a Fooling of Confidence Is Generally Prevalent and the Slackening of Trade Is Thought to lie Only Temporary. NEW YORK, March G. Dun weekly review of trade says: There are some indications of slackening trade. At the west cold and unfavorable weather and the bad condition of country roads affect distribution and collections, and the apparent change may be only temporary. At the south the low price of cotton is felt, though a little improvement has occurred in the past two weeks.

At eastern cities and to some extent throughout the country, uncertainty as to the monetary future checks operation. But there is found in almost all quarters A Feeling or Confidence as to the future. Sales of wool at Boston, New York and Philadelphia this year thus far show an increase over last year of 20 per and still continues large. The dress goods makers have closed the most prosperous season known and hope for better prices presently. In kilt goods some complain that they are carrying too large stocks and that margins for profit are close, but a great many orders are still received.

The boot and shoe business is retarded by speculation in hides and leather, and prices of goods are no higher than a year ago. The iron trade shows no change. Rails are stiffer and the demand for structural iron a iittle better. Glass trade is fair with prices unchanged, and lead is firm, but copper weaker with lake at 14c. Tin has been hoisted by speculation abroad and the ring at Para has again lifted crude rubber, so that the trade in rubber goods is rather unsettled.

The anthracite coal trade is much affected by the decision of the interstate commission in the ease of Cox the effect of which cannot yet be foreseen, but meanwhile the output continues to exceed last year's very largely. The General Average of All the Prices is still advancing, haviug risen half of 1 per cent, for the past week. Reports from Boston are that general trade in merchandise is not active, the weather hindering. At Philadelphia the iron trade is dull, and the trade in liquors and tobacco quiet. Pittsburg notes no change in iron except growing scarcity; the Monougahela coal mines are busy.

At Cincinnati trade is quiet and at Detroit trade is very fair, equaling last year's, though country collections are slow. Chicago reports decrease, compared with last year in flour, corn, barley, lard and butter, and a decrease of half in dressed beef, but increase in oats, rye, cured meats, hides and wool. In dry goods, clothing, and boots and shoes, trade is larger than a year ago, but Collections Not So Guod as they were recently. Milwaukee notes much discontent among iron miners, who have several weeks' wages unpaid negotiations for the transfer ot largo properties. At cities west of the Mississippi trade is fair for the season except at Kansas City, where it is dull and in that region generally collections are improving.

At New Orleans trade is barely fair; at Memphis lethargic with slow collections, and at Little Rock money is tight, but Savannah has a jubilee over receipts of 1,000,000 bales of cotton in a year and reports bright prospects. The money markets are easier at most of the interior cities, including Chicago and Boston. Hiislnrss Failures during the last seven days number for the United States 230, and for Canada 4.1, a total of 27.1, as compared with a total of 273 last week and 205 the week previous to the last.

Capt. McKeague of the Utopia has been arraigned before a magistrate, and remanded on bail. The bodies buried were conveyed to the cemeteries in wagons covered with British and Italian flags. The survivors who desire it will be sent back to Italy on the Assyria, The accounts given by survivors show that the horrors of the scene had not been exaggerated. At the time of the collision many were on deck looking at the land.

At the shock the crowds, struggling to get up choked the hatchways, and thus hundreds were caught as in a loop. At tho Inquest on the victims of the Utopia disaster the watch officer of the British ironclad Andou deposed that in his opinion the accident was the result of negligence on the part of the officers of the Utopia.
