ALL BLAME ON INSURGENTS. Conference at Which Murphy Will Tell Caucus Candidate What Transpired at Albany Conference. Charles F. Murphy eliminated Tammany Hall from his list of engagements disappointing many of the braves that 'were congregated there, and the tip immediately went forth that Mr. Murphy will spend the greater portion of the day lu conferences on the Senatorial deadlock.

It was not denied at the Wigwam that in all probability Mr. Murphy will see Mr. Sheehan either this afternoon or some time this evening at their regular rendezvous for conferences Delmonico's. From a source so close to Murphy that it is the same as if he were speaking, came Ihe information today that Murphy will not yield to the elimination of Mr. Sheehan from the Senatorial race under any circumstances.

"Mr. Murphy told the Governor that said this informant. "He also told it to the He further told them that it was not the majority, but the minority who were responsible for the deadlock. The only way the deadlock could be broken, he told the Governor, was for the minority to come around to the thinking of the majority. "The Governor was given to understand that the New York Democratic state organization is not responsible for the present situation.

Mr. Dix also was told that if he used his efforts to change the minds of his advisers and use his persuasive eloquence upon the minority, the same as he is trying It upon tho majority, thn deadlock would not last very long." The same man said 'hat Governor Dix, when In; made the statement that some progress had been made as a result of the conference at the Executive Mansion, spoke In an optimistic strain which was not. Justified by the fflcts. Mr. Murphy did not give the Governor the slightest assurance that the majority would aban don Mr.

Sheehan and enter Into a new caucus and select a compromise candidate. 1 Sheehan Only Man Who Can Break Deadlock. These statements of facts ser-m to Indicate that the deadlock In Albany will continue indefinitely. As for as the. majority are concerned there is only one man who can break it.

and that is Mr. Siicohan, who must voluntarily withdraw from the race. Murphy has Mvise.1 him to stick, so have all his other friends. and Mr. Sheehan apparently Intends tolwl'h his sanction, that the (iovernor felt follow their advice.

MOVE SUGGESTED BYMURPHY? Tammany Leader Was Incensed Over Question if His Presence at Capitol Was a Public Scandal. (Special to The Eagle.) Albany. March 15 Governor Dix nj longer will submit to general Interviews from the newspaper correspondents at the Capitol.

That, at least, is his present Intention, announced by himself today. The duly accredited representatives of the most important newspapers in the state are not to be permitted to walk Into the executive chamber and ask the Governor questions about matters of public Importance in his dally meet-iiiw. with the correspondents. They were notified by the Governor to-day that they I'ould have lo appoint a spokesman who would be the only man the Govern or would recognize and they would have to submit their questions through this spokesman. In response to a question of one of til group of correspondents who were tak.i by surprise by the announcement, and had not selected a spokesman for this morning's conference, the Governor sta ed that this rule would not apply In the cases where a correspondent had ceived Instructions from his newspap to ask the Governor a particular question on some subject in which the newspaper had a particular Interest The rule Is to go Into effect to-morrow, and the correspondents will try to find some means of applying the gag rule to themselves In the meantime.

It has been suggested that they send down one correspondent with i list of questions ac companied by a stenographer, to he hired by the Correspondents Association. The stenographer will lake down verbatim the Governor's responses to. the questions propounded, and then give copies of the answers to all the newspaper correspondents. It was not represented by the (iovernor that he Umk this rather extreme measure because h' thought he had been misquoted. He dlil tint explain the reason for his action in any way at to-day's tnlk with the correspondents.

Hut yesterday afternoon, at. his meeting with the newspaper men, the Military Secretary of Governor, Lieutenant Commander hck-fnrd Craven Kay, of the Naval Militia, slated, in the Governor's presence, and that somp questions which had been quest Inning in the future, and that if it were to he continued, he would be obliged to curtail his talks with the newspaper men. Tim (iovernor seemed par! iculntly re sentful of the questions rogiirditiK bis opinions of tho presence of Charles 1' Murphy in Allmny, It was asked of the Governor if, in view of tho general com mint throughout the state regard I tig Mr Murphy's frequent trips to Albany, he thought that Mr. Murphy's presence was a public scandal. The Governor did not display any Indication of being aggrieved al the time lint questions were asked, but instead, defended Mr.

Murphy's presence al the Capitol and Executive Man-Fion. II is believed that his rule, promulgated to-day. is result of this incident. No such rule, according to the oldest correspondents, was ever promulgated during the past sixteen yearB of Rcpubli hii admini.itrnt ion. The Governor has been questioned very closely about other matters since his inauguration, particularly on the day last week when District Attorney Whitman came to Albany to And out whether Dix really Intended lo lnterfcr.i with Ills prosecution of the Carnegie Trust Company investigation.

At that time I lie demand wa- made upon Ihe viovernor by the repn Mutative of a nmrniiu lo tell if he really meant tl 'it ue would not require Professor Charles A. Collin to explain bow he came t.i I urn ovi the letter from the Govern ir Whitman iu'o the possession of Stephen c. Baldwin, attorney for the C.irtiegie Trust, Cuui-pany. These qti.riilon were consi'lerid much more severe 'hose propeiitid.od lo Ihe Governor yesti rdny r-bouL th? conference on the Murphy Believed to Have Suggested Move to Dix. Charles F.

Murphy has much the same cusiotn of treating newspaper reporters, it may be staled, as the (iovernor inaugurated to-day. Murphy usually ignores the questions of a group of re porters and talks to one or two in the group, whom he thinks are "trusties. lesterday afternoon, immediately fol lowing the issuance of Ihe local after noon newspapers, Charles F. Murphy hoi footed It up to the executive chamber and talked In private with the (iovernor. It is that.

Murphy told the Governor of his method of treating newspaper men and suggested Ihe plan which the Governor announced to-day. Murphy was roiled, even more than the Governor, at tho suggestion contained in one of the questions, that his presence in Albany, dominating the legislature, constituted a "public scandal." It may be stated that there was no Intention of affronting either Murphy or Dix in their personal character by this question, which had been read by all the newspaper correspondents before it was propounded to the Governor by one of them. The question was suggested by newspaper comment on Murphy's con tinued presence at. the Capitol In the early part of the session, and his return at the solicitation of the Governor to "settle the deadlock," although the Governor hail previously gone on record as saying that the members of the legislature should bo "free" from any outside influence or "coercion" whatsoever. To-day one of thn newspaper men immediately after the Governor announced that they would have to submit their questions through one spokesman, read a telegram from his editor, containing this question: "What is the scope of the investigation of the Public Service Commission of the.

First District by former Commissioner Carlisle? Is there any significance In the appearance of Mr. Carlisle at the existing crisis of the Interborough negotiations? Get statement, from Dix on this." Secretary De Kay spoke before the (iovernor nan Bigninen wnetner he would answer or not. "ou win Kindly submit tnat question Natural Laxative Water Recommended by Physicians Refuse Substitutes Best remedy for CONSTIPATION through somebody else," he told the correspondent. But the Governor, recognizing that no spokesman had as yet been selected, replied to the question by stating that ha had already told of the scope of the investigation. He stated that he had said some time ago that he wanted "co-ordination between the two departments." The Governor was then asked if he had any statement to make regarding the delivery of his letter to Whitman through, l'rofessor Collin and Stephen C.

Baldwin, as Professor Collin had gone In to se tho Governor a minute before the Governor came out of his private office. "No," replied the Governor. "Pro-fesor Collin Is here now. I have nod talked with him yet." The Governor replied to another question concerning the Senatorship deadlock by affirming that he had no new development to announce concerning the situation.

Washington, March 15 Fully one-fifth of the population of the northern Man- churian city of Fuchiatlen had perished from the ravages of the plague from thn inie of its outbreak to the end of Jan uary, according to reports trom Lniteii States Consul Greene at Harbin. While the official figures of the deaths at Fu- hiatien show 111 perished daily durint; the week ending January 24, it Is generally believed that about 200 person then were dying daily, and that altogether nearly 4.000 had perished there or in la immediate vicinity. right. are ESTABLISHED OVER BOYS SLEEP IN SCHOOL; ONE IS KILLED BY GAS Pupils Greatly Excited as They See Body of Victim Removed.

MUCH MYSTERY IN THE CASE. Companion of Dead Youth Is Taken to Hospital in an Unconscious Condition. One boy wag found drart end anothnr unconscious in a email room on the top floor of Publio School No. 130, at Fort Hamilton avenue and Ocean Parkway, about 7 oVIoek thia morning. Statements that were somewhat conflicting: mado to the police of the Parkvillo station and accordingly tho Coroner was notified and he will probably begni an investigation.

The ambulance surgeon who was called in said that tho dead boy came to his end through asphyxiation by gas, and that tho other boy's condition in duo to gas poisoning. Tho janitor, however, told the police that when he entered the room whre the boys were found, a gas Jet and a gas radiator were both lighted and that it was his opinion that had there been enough gas in the room to have caused rinnth nr. ovnlnoinn maw hau rPsnltPd 7, 1 the door and two windows were closed when he reached the room. It was in view of these statements that the police believed It was a case for the Coroner to look into. The boy who is dead waB Stephen Doyle, IS years old, who lived with his parents and two sisters at OH East Fourth street, not far from the schoolhouse.

The other youth is James 20 years old, of whom little Is known. According to the Doyles, Nugent was a homeless boy who was making his home with them temporarily, because he wan a friend of the boy who Is dead. Nugent is in the Kings County Hospital, where it was said this forenoon that his condition was se rious, but that he had a fighting chan to pull through. Janitor Makes Discovery When He Opens School. The room in whic htho bodies were found is near ttie Ocean Biulevard side of the schoolhouse.

This room is a retiring place for teachers who may taken ill, and is furnished with two cots, a g.is stove and a few other articles. The janitor, John Boyle, went to the school this morning as usual to open the building. When he opened the door of the little room on the fourth floor he saw Nugent lying face downward in the center of the room. Tho body of Doyle was on a cot. Boyle nays that, not only were the, radiator and a jet giving out flame, but thei he did not notice particularly that there was any strong smell of gas.

certainly not enough, in his opinion, to make him believe that the boys had been overcome by fumes. Tho room was "close," however, he said. Boyle notified Dr. Edward G. Hynes, physician, living at 8)) Ocean Parkway.

Dr. Hynes found that Doyle was dead, and he advised tho Janitor to get a priest, Nugent was still alive. Boyle brought Father McGrath of the Roman Catholic nf the Immcculate Heart of Mary at Fort Hamilton avenue and East Fourth street. Father McGrath administered the last rites of the church to Nugent. The Prospect Park police station was notified but the schoolhouse is in the Parkvllle precinct, and men from this station came.

Dr. Lott came in an ambulance from the Kings County Hospital and removed Nugent to that Institution. A patrol wagon took Doyle's body to the Parkville station. Dr. Lott said that gas poisoning was the direct cause of Doyle's death and that he thought thut the gas could not have been lighted.

The janitor told the police that a citizen tniri him this morning that when the lat ter passed the schoolhouse at. 2 o'clock this morning there was a light in the room of the top floor. Boys Were in Boom Without Principal's Knowledge. Dr. George B.

Doyle was accustomed to help Boyle at odd jobs about the building, said the janitor, who added that he did not see Nueent anywhere around last night.

Bovle slid that Doyle complained of be- ne ill and that he told lite boy to go home, and supposed tnat he had done so. He said he never gave consent to Doyle or anyone else to sleep in the building. He closed the building about 10 o'clock, he said. Mrs. Doyle taid this morning that her son and Nugent had a newspaper route together, and that they were accustomed stay out at all lutirB.

Mr. Carnegie's name figured prominently In the Carnegie Trust Company's books. He is likely to lose something like as a result of the manipulations by which he received practically worthless collateral for the United States Steel bonds which he loaned to Cummins and the group of nanciers who were In charge of the Trust Company's affairs. "It Is very likely," Mr. Whitman said this morning, "that Mr.

Carnegie will be called upon to give evidence before the grand jury. The books show that Mr. Carnegie loaned a vast sum of money to the Carnegie Trust Company and it is doubtful if he will get it back." The District Attorney would not say just what he intends to prove by Mr. Carnegie's evidence. It is possible that he will be' able to make an interesting expla nation of his relations to the Trust Com pany.

This Is said to be the first time the Laird of Sklbo has ever been successfully hoodwinked with regard to a financial transaction In which he took a personal interest. Kiatriot Attorney Expects to Secure Several Indictments. The District Attorney's announcement that he expects several indictments to be handed down this week is something of A surprise. Early in the week it was said that the Grand Jury would probably be at work on the case for a month, and since, up to the present, comparatively few witnesses have been examined, It was Hot supposed that tlie flrst indictment would come before next week. This indicates that the evidence in possession of the District Attorney's office is pretty solid.

William L. Brower, former vice president of the defunct Northern Bank, now under indictment for perjury, has made, an affidavit relative to a telephone conversation between himself and Frederick K.
