April 24 In tlio fnpreine court, in tlio cMe of the hUIc of Orcinii, ri'Hiiiinlciil, v William lleiulernon Millniit, ii(l from Cluikiuimn, I county, the nilt(etnetit of the lower (court wbh revcrned ami a new trial onleri'd ; opinion hy Ilean, jule. Ilen . dernon wax indicted, tried and convicted of murder In the flrxt decree of killing i Cyrti Hutcr hy Rtahhinit him with a : pocket-knife. The evidence tended to thow that the (leceam-d and defendant had, for Home two or three hours ine mediately prior to the homicide, been playing card and drinking liquor in a naloon at Canhy, A dixptito arorie over the vaine arid Hendemon had threatened to ijtiit pluyiiiK, hut at Fillet's solicita tion continued in the gune. Jnat lire vioiln to the killing the quarrel wait renewed, when HunderHon agin a roue, and ruiiil he would not play any more. The dvceanil, who waa niucli larger than IletulerHon got up from the table and approached and took hold of the defendant, whether in a lieaceahle or violent iiiiinnar, wilnerinea were not au'reed, when HellderHon italbed him with an ordinary pocket-knife.

To coiiNtitute murder in the flrwt degree it Ik necenaary that a design to lake life be funned and matured in cool blood and not hastily upon the occasion. It must the result of a delihrate and preiuedita teJ act. Rsidy for ths Gratd Opening. Ciiraoo, April Next Monday will be a great day in thia city. The oHning of the World's Fair which will then bo thrown oK'n to the public will mark an epoch in our history. Indica tions now are that everything will be ready on time. Director-tieneral Davis and the coun cil of administration made a move yester day to expclite the unloading nnd in stallation of exIiiliiU. The direc'or gencral gave tlio foreign commissions permission to bring in teams and wagons to handle their exhibits Independent of transportation forces at the park, and the council of administration issued an order that no charge should be made on exhibits entering the Exposition by teams owned or hired by the exhibitors. As a result the commissioners were en abled to unload cars that had been tied up in the switching yards from ten days to two weeks, and the tiausportation department was relieved of the demand for emergency service. Councilor Massey made a tour of in spection about the grounds, devoting a good part of his time to manufactures hall, which has lieen considered the hardest probleln in calculations for open ing day, After ho returned from his trip Mr. Mnsscy said : "I am very much pleased with the con dition of afr.iirs. Exhibits are pouring in from every direction and the domes tic exhibitors, always the lust to put in an appearance, seem to have awakened to the fact that they are duo to open the show on time with their aisles swept out and their exhibits all ready for inspec tion by the public. The great storm of Wednesday night showed not only bow well the great structures are built, but also bow ad mirably they are guarded. 'When, shortly before midnight, the skv fell in the form of oceans of water, driven by a howling hurricane, the watchers at the park were instantly abroad at the points of danger. The director-general and the director of works toiled with firemen and Columbian guards to protect exhibits and statuary from the wild weather. The struggle was severe but very suc cessful. The President'! Vlewj. Washington, April 23. To a reprent ative of tl'j press the president said tonight: "The inclination on the part of the pub lic to accept newspaper reports concern ing the intention of those charged with the managomunt of our national finances seems to justify my emphatic contradic tion of the statement that that redemp tion of any kind of treasury notes, except in gold, has at any time been determined upon, or contemplated by the secretary of the treasury, or any other inetnla;r of the present administration. The presi dent and liia cabinet are absolutely harmonious in the determination to exercise every power conferred upon them to maintain the public credit, to keep I he public faith and to preserve the parity between gold and silver and be tween all finance obligations of the Kovernment. While the law of 18!(0, forcing the purchase of a fixed amount of silver every month, provides that the secretary of the treasury, In his discre tion, may redeem in either void or silver the treasury notes given in payment of silver purchases, yet the declaration of the policy of the government, to main tain the parity between the two metals, seems so clearly to regulate this discre tion as to dictate their redemption in gold. Of course, perplexity and difficul ties have grown out of an unfortunate financil policy which we found in vogue, and embarrassments have arisen from ill-advised financial legislation confront ing us at every turn, but with cheerful confidence among the people and a patriotic disposition to co-operate, the threatened dangers will be averted, pending a legislative return to a better and sounder financial plan. The strung credit of the country is still unimpaired and the good sense of our people, which it as never failed in the time of need, iat hand to save us from disaster." W.rdner, Idaho, la Balm. Si'okank, Wash., April 1W. The busi ness part of Wardner, Idaho, was burned th's morning and several hundred people are homeless. The loss is estimated be tween fJ50,iHJO and T5o0,000. Less than one-third is covered by insurance. The lire Blurted in Lawsou's clothing store between 1 and 2 o'clock this morning. The cause is not known, as the flames had gained full control of the building before the fire was discovered. The alarm was given shortly before 2 o'clock and brought the citizens out at once, but it was too late. Before any systematic I work could tie done by the volunteers, I the flames spread to the adjoining build ' ings. By 2 :'M, the entire population w as ! in the streets, some fighting the flames, others rushing to save their possessions. Wind scattered the blazing cinders everywhere in a short time the whole gulch was a toaring sea of flame. It was evident by 3 o'clock that the entire business part of the city was doomed. The firemen still worked to prevent the fire from spreading, and by tearing down buildings and running great risks of be inn caught by falling timlters they suc ceeded in cutting off most of tiie resi denc3 part of the town, and by 4 o'clock the fire was checked. At daylight the scene was a pitiful one. The town was a heap of ruins, with ruined men and homeless women picking their way among piles of ashes. Kelief committees will at once be appointed and a call for help be issued. Only a partial list of the losses can be obtained. World'! Fair Strike. Ciiicaoo, April 24. When the car penters employed at Jackson Tark go to work tomorrow morning they will find the gates of the exposition grounds guarded by a cordon of union delegates. These delegates have strict orders to al low no union carpenter, working for the exposition company or those contractors who have not signed the agreement of the carpenters' council, to enter within the grounds. The Bt-enes of two weeks ago are to lie repeated. Not only will the union carpenters strike at the world's lair grounds, but all over the city. By order of President B. Cogswell, all union carpenters working for contractors who have not signed the agreement must quit work. This order will throw over oOOO men out of employment, to uphold the union's demand that its members Bhall not lie compelled to labor w ith non union workmen. The Btrike was re solved upon by a mass meeting of car penters this afternoon. Fifteen hundred men were present, and the vote to strike was unanimous. The Gold Reserve Broker New Yokk, April 21. The upper crust of the the $100,000,000 gold reserve has been removed. The financial world stood by and witnessed the going of it and yet tonight in this financial center no quakings of the earth are felt, and the folks who were most interested are wondering why there has been no crash of worlds nor wreck of spheres. Indeed, some financiers are looking each into the other's faces and ejaculating as to whether they have been fanatic or un cannily superstitious. The engagement of gold for export from here on the steamers sailing tomorrow and Tuesday amount to $ti, 175,000 and from Boston $750,000. There was much diversity of opinion in the financial community dur ing the day over Secretary Carlisle's statement. In the main judgment was unfavorable, and this was to no small extent because of the statement's am biguity. Of late it has been a favorite supersti tion that if the reserve dropped below the limit the result would be disastrous.not alone to values, but also to the mercan tile community. The fact that the shock has been comparatively slight has caused an easier feeling about the future although there doubtless would not be any surprise it the movements in stocks, as well as in money and sterling ex change markets, had not been erratic for some time. Manager rjherer, of the clearing-house, aaid w ith regard to the gold situation : "I do not think any action is neces sary, as no artificial restriction that could be placed upon the export of gold would mend matters in the least nor check it. We are Dimply coming to a silver basis in the natural course of event and if the present mode of financiering continues we will soon have no gold in the country, but will have have plenty of silver. " A Pioneer Train. New Yobk, April 21. Tlis queerest train that has been seen in many a long year drew out of the Pennsylvania depot this morning amid the cheers of a big crowd of curiosity-seekers. The tra;n consisted of engine No. 1 of the Penn- ' sylvania railroad, and cars Nos. 3 and 1 6. Engine No. 1 of the Pennsylvania I road is also engine No. 1 of the United States, being the first railway locomotive used on this side of the Atlantic. It started this morning to puff its way laboriously to the World's Fair, where it will be an object of wonder to mill ions. The engine is painted and pol ished so that it shines like a modern locomotive. The coaches look like stage coaches on railway wheels. Tbey bear the inscription "John Bull Train" The train is managed by veteran rail roaders. The conductor, W. T. Bailey, has been a passenger conductor since 1859. The brakemen, Jonas Hagar and Toomas Gallagher, were brakeman in 1849. The engine driver, Ai 8, Herbert drive the John Bull in 1852. J. W. San ferd, the fireman, was such in 1855. Car Inspector E. II. Baker who goes along, has been foreman of the Jersey City car shops since 1848. Acting As sistant Superintendent James R. Smith, who directs the running of the train, has also been a railroad man over fifty years. It is expected that the train will carry some distinguished passengers before it reaches Chicago. The passengers thta morning were all railway officials. Bat i to the World's Fair. Chicago, April 20. All work done by the Western Passenger association dur ing the last fix weeks went by the board today. All members of the association threw up their hands and gave up tbe hope of an immediate adjustment of the World's Fair rates. The cause of the collapse was tbe announcement by Pas senger Traffic Manage' White, of the Atchison road, that his company would at the expiration of thirty days, with draw from membership in the associa tion. This was done.ne said, because his road could not secure protection in World's Fair rates west of Missouri river, where it does the largest business. The Atchison people say they withdrew, not with any intention .of cutting rates, but simply to protect their revenue. A World'! Fair Bate. San Fbancisco, April 21. The Santa Fe road today announced a round trip rate to Chicago for $100. good for nine months. The fare one way, limited to a continuous trip, will be $00. Return ticket will be tbe same price. The roads west of the Missouri river are charging $S0 and the line east of the river $20. A single trip rate will be $00. It was first announced that only theN.P., S. P., U. P. and Santa Fe had agreed to these rates but it was subsequently stated that all the roads would put the new rates into jeffect May 1st. All of the local agents of the vari ous overland roads received le'egram on the subject lata this afternoon. Mr!. Hanoook Dead, New Yokk, April 20. After a linger ing illness, Mrs. Almiuia Hancock, widow of Major-General Winfield S. Hancock, died this afternoon at the i ev idence of the general's neice, Mrs. Eu gene (.irillin, in Gramorcy va'k Mrs. Hancock's Btrength was slowly wasting awav under tbe subtle influence of a succession of sorrows that subdued her naturally cheerful disposition and had withdrawn her from society during the hitter part of her life. Wbltelaw field la Portland, Portland, Or., April 22. Whitelaw Koid, ex-minister to France and the candidate for vice-president on the re publican ticket arrived in Portland tin's morning in his private car from San Francisco. He is accompanied by Mrs. Reid and their two young children and D. O. Mills, the great railroad magnate and capitalist. Almost An Even Hundred. Taoma, April 23. The Union Pacific has put tickets on Bale here at $08.60 for the round t rip to Chicago, good to return until November 15. General Agent Ellis said today it was quite probable that a cut would be made dur ing the last three months of the fair.
