-Jlennessy was arrested and held to await the action of the Grand Jury, but no indictment was found. A week ago Friday Hennessy was before Justice Wright charged with threatening to km Mrs. Corneille and her dnughter. The evidence adduced showed that Hennessy had said: "1 will kill you both and I won't use a hatchet, either, next time."

Disregarding the action of bis auditors. Governor Thomas approached directly the issue before the audience.

"An incident so horrible in its character and revolting in its circumstances." he began, "justifies the expression of public condemnation. I do not believe that the people of Colorado are any worse or any more blood-thirsty than those of any civilized Christian community. "The 'crime for hich Porter paid such a terribjle penalty is the most horrible on record. I cannot blame the parents, for it is impossible to realiie their grief and frenzy unlrfss one is placed in their position. I do not censure the negro's execution, but the manner of it."

Man With a Long Knife in His Hand Resisted Arrest. PERILS OF PROCESS SERVERS. Gilchrist Was Equal to the Emergency Jumped Aside and Dealt the Wonld-Be Assassin a Stiugiug Blow on the Head. While Court Officer Gili litisl was attempting to make an ane i yesterday afternoon a large carving knife was pointed at bis stomach, ihe holder of whiili threatened to run il through him.

Hy some exceedingly clever tout -work and sagacity, (iiiebrisl managed lo escape the disagreeable expeiieuee of being disemboweled. The man was finally arrested, but it rei) uired the. assistance of two other officers to accomplish it. On Saturday morning Mrs. Mary Crowley, of No.

i7 llullcr street, appeared at the llutlor Street Court and procured a warrant for her husband's arrest. She claimed that he assaulted -her and that she was afraid to have him around. She also staled that he acted as though crazy. Court Officer (lileluist was assigned to serve the warrant, which he started out yesterday afternoon to do. lie arrived at the homestead of the Crow leys al o'clock, went to their apart-no i.

Is and knocked politely. Mr. Crowley appealed at the door, asking at the same time what the business of his caller was. iilchrist informed him that he was seeking a private interview with Mr. Crowley, to which answer the man stated that he was Mr.

Crowley. "Then that is all settled," said Gilchrist. "I have a warrant for your arrest. Please don your hat ami eout and accompany me to the station house." Crowley was both perplexed and surprised at the officer's admission anil inquired as to who secured the warrant against him. Upon being told that his wife did, Crowley ran into his rooms, ami a moment Inter appeared iu the hall with a knife over a foot long.

When he did this Gilchrist was leaning against the banister reading a newspaper. Gilchrist did not become aware of Crowley's presence until the latter made a threat that bo had him cornered. Then, looking down, Gilchrist saw the knife at his stomach. With a sudden hound Gilchrist jumped from in front of the cold looking weapon and struck Crowley a stinging blow on the head with his fist. Crowley made another turn, however, as if to get at the officer, but again Gilchrist struck him.

They then had a tussle in the hullway, during which Crowley managed ti enter bis apartments again. After this struggle, Gilchrist concluded that he would need assistance in arresting Crowley, so he sent a boy with a message to the Butler street station for aid. Policemen Ryall and Clare were sent aronnd and again hostilities were commenced. While Gilchrist was awaiting reinforcements Crowley had strengthened his position by tiarricading the door. He placed a bed, chairs and other household articles of furniture against it.

"In union there is strength" and Gilchrist Ryall and Clare were well aware of it. The three of them put their shoulders against the door and in a few minutes it flew open. The three policemen entered only to 'face Crowley standing amid the ruins of his bedstead and chairs, which had toppled oTcr on him when the door opened. He, upon seeing them, made another dive for the knife, which was on a table nearby. But as he tried to reach Officer Ryall tripped him and he fell to the floor.

Then Kyall it ml Clare jumped on him. That was the end of the struggle, except that the officers had some difficulty in removing Crowley to the station house. Gilchrist's coat was. torn in several places, where the knife had touched. He was, however, otherwise uninjured.

This morning Crowley was arraigned Ixv fore Magistrate Bristow in the Buticr Street Court and he appeared submissive enough. Court Officer Gilchrist related to Magistrate Bristow the story of the strug gle, which was not denied by Crowley Crowley was held in $300 until next Wednesday. M'CALLV case. Secretary- Long Says Proceedings Are Probably a Court of Inquiry. WASHINGTON, Nov.

Long said this morning that the cable from Manila stating that Captain Bow-man H. McCalla, of the Newark, was un dergoirfg trial by courtmartial was an er ror. The alleged charges are "Irrational and bad management and lack of disci pline." While as a matter of internal dig' ciplint the affair has not been formally brougnt before the Secretary, he says that such charges are too indefinite and gen eral in character to warrant a courtmar tial, and the proceedings must be a court of inquiry. Outside of the Secretary's office It is learned that about a week ago Captain McCalla and his subordinate. Lieutenant Coldwell, had a controversy In which ihe latter's criminations against his superior were so serious that Admiral Remey was forced to order a court of inquiry, The charges are substantially as reported in the McCalla was convicted several years ago of harsh treatment of members )f his crew, but was later rardoned by the President.

PRESIDENT FEARS DEFICIT. The Probability of Expenditures in the Philippine! and in China Will Prevent the Removal of the Greater Part of the War Tax Brewers Not Likely to Secure What They Deiire. Nov. K-lh- members of the Ways an! M'-iih Committee of the House of K. pre.

natives of Congress will in Miis city to-morrow to map out a kc programme for the short The pmposcd revision of the war r- acinic act is the subject of paramount importance to be considered. I'resident and Secretary of the Treasury liae hare agreed that a rcductionof will be nbout riiiht for next year, and the Ways and Means Committee will prepare the measure which is to carry cut this programme intelligently. A larger reduction might have been recommended were it not for the henry expenditures of the Government in the Philippines and in China. The President does not care to face a deficit at the end of the year, and for that reason will not now propose any reduction that mu'ht bring about the very thing he desires to avoid. He prefers To leave the heavier cut to the next Congress The war revenue act is estimated to produce about and this may be nearly cut in half by the Fifty-seventh Congress.

The first cut will be a cautious one. The tax on bequests for charitable for instance, will be removed. There will probably be a reduction of the tax on deeds, mortgages, etc. The brewers have asked for a lightening of their burdens, but it is unlikely that the beer tax will be either abolished or reduced. There may be a few slight changes in fa vor of the manufacturers of proprietary medicines.

There will be no reduction whatever of the tar on commercial trans actions, and there is a growing feeling in favor of continuing permanently a larje portion of this tax. The first member of the committee to arrive in the citv is General Charles H. Grosvenor, of Ohio. He is at the Dewey EXPLOSION VICTIM IN MORGUE. Not Tot Positive That the Man Was Anthony Bono.

The body of the man who was killed yes terday afternoon by an explosion of gas in a couduit of the Edison Electric- Light Company, at lushing; and' Nostrand avenues, hod not been positively identified this afternoon and was removed from the Cly men street police station to the Morgue. The police only surmised that his name was Anthony Rono. They derived this from papers in his possession. These pa pers did not give his home address nor any thing about him. The man's age was about 35.

Persons who saw him just before the explosion say he alighted from a car of the Flushing avenue extension line and that he was waiting or a Nostrand avenue and Lorimer street car.
