ably at Nankins, the secret societies
have arranged to raise a rebellion- this'
month along the Yantzel "Valley. It is
further noted that these secret societies
have collected large sums of money and
have considerable amounts on hand.
A Hankow dispatch states that Vice
roy Chang Chi Tung, upon hearing of
this, gave strict orders to the civil and
military officials to be vigilant in the dis
charge of their duties. It Is reported
that in Wu Kang Choa, in Hunan, there
appears a new .secret society named

eaylng that Queen "Wllhelmlna's recent
visit here was meant to obtain Emperor
William's assistance to end the South Af
rican War, both the Zwibund and the
Drelbund being willing to do so through
The Hague arbitration court, and tnat
the Emperor consented, and the court
began work thereon. The dispatch has
created a sensa'tlon here.
The Associated Press has just obtained
the following statement from the Foreign
Office, which is authorized by Count von
Bulow, the Imperial Chancellor:
"Neither Great Britain, France nor Rus
sia approached Germany to participate in
any action aiming at ending the South
African War. Germany has all along dis
tinguished between offering her good of
fices and intervention. To render her
good offices would be possible if both par
ties to the war requested it, but it will
be remembered that Great Britain only
joined The Hague conference on condi
tion that the Boer States were excluded.
There is no doubt that Mr. Kruger, who
is a serious statesman, came to Europe
to obtain the good offices of several of
the powers to end the war;, but -there is
also no doubt that Great Britain does not
want their good offices. At least, it is
true that since the South African "War
'began Great Britain has never, either
verbally or in writing, confidentially or
officially, broached such an idea.
"It Is quite possible that the Boer side
has now formally asked The. Hague arbi
tration court to lend Its aid tp end.. the
war somehow, and that 'the court "has
held a session regarding "the matter; but
that, orcoufse, is entirely different from
any serious -steps to end the war."
Kroger at The Hague.
THE HAGUE, June 10. Mr. Kruger and
Dr. Leyds arrived here -today. They
drove from the railroad station at Hllver
sum Junction in a closed carriage, and
are staying at the residence of Mr1. Wol
merans, one of the Boer peace envoys.
Agents to Confer "Wednesday.
LONDON, June 10. The Sun hears that
Mrs. Botha starts "Wednesday for The
Hague, where Mr. Kruger has been sum
moned to attend a conference of the Boer
agents in Europe and the United States
to consider the report Mrs. Botha has
"brought from her husband, In which he
advises Mr. Kruger, -as the -constitutional
head of the Transvaal, to -sue for peace
and the best terms obtainable.
DISCREDITED IX LONDON.
JV'o Nevrs of Meeting Between Kitch
ener and Botha.
NEW TORK, June 10. A dispatch to
. the Tribune from London says:
War Office authorities say they have re
ceived no news of a meeting between Gen
erals Kitchener and Botha near Stander
ton "last Wednesday, and the report of a
tentative settlement between the British
and Boer commanders is consequently dis
credited in official quarters. Mrs. Botha's
arrival In London has, nevertheless, re
vived peace rumors, to which publicity
has been given on several occasions re
cently. It Is impossible to say exactly
what is going on, but the general opinion
Is that there must be some foundation for
the rumors. Mrs. Botha's visit is still
shrouded In secrecy, and although it is
freely stated that she In on a peace mis
sion no definite information on that point
Is obtainable at present
On the whole, the opinion of the news
papers this morning is that Mrs. Botha's
visit to Mr. Kruger can at best have but
an indirect influence on future peace ne
gotiations so long as the Boers persist In
holding out for better terms than were
offered at Middleburg. There does not
seem the slightest ground for the state
ment which appeared In the Weekly Dis
patch that Mrs. Botha was received Sat
urday at the Colonial Office, then by Lord
Roberts at the War Office, and afterward
by Mr. Brodrick.
Meanwhile, the war news continues In
conclusive. General Blood's operations in
the Eastern Transvaal have apparently
come to an end and cannot be called de
cisive. Botha Is somewhere between Er
melo and Amsterdam, and there seems no
immediate prospect of surrounding him.
Some disappointment has been caused by
General Kitchener's denial of a circum
stantial account which was circulated by a
news agency last week .of the surprise of
Beyer's commando and the capture of his
convoy and stores.
Among the members on both sides of
the House of Commons, the greatest in
terest is exhibited in the report of the
committee on reform in War Office admin
istration, and there is much eagerness
lor an opportunity to debate the recom
mendations. The committee has suggest
ed several questions, inviting the govern
ment to name a day for discussion. It is
no doubt very difficult in the present
backward conditions of "business for the
government to find time for a new army
debate, but they will certainly be strong
ly pressed to do so, as the subject Is felt
to be of more than ordinary interest and
Importance.
Advanced reformers among military
members of Parliament appear, on the
whole, to approve the report of the committee.

ENGLISH DUTY ON SUGAR.
Xnmbcr of Alterations Passed, to
Take Effect Today.
LONDON, June 10. The Chancellor of
the Exchequer, Sir Michael Hicks-Beach,
in the House of. Commons today, proposed
alterations in the sugar duty as follows:
Molasses, all extracts of sugar which
cannot be tested by the polariscope, if
containing 70 per cent and upwards of
sweetening matter, 2 shillings 9 pence per
hundredweight; if between 70 and 50 per
cent, 2 shillings; below 50 per cent, 1 shil
ling. The duty on solid glucose Is to be
2 shillings 9 pence per hundredweight,
and on liquid glucose, 2 shillings. A reso
lution embodying the sugar alterations
was passed without a division, to take
effect tomorrow.
Th,e House voted down by large major
ities a series of amendments to the civil
list and crown bill proposed by Mr. La
bouchere and others, among which was a
motion to reduce the grant from 470,000
to 410,000.
The Chancellor of the Exchequer, Sir
Michael Hicks-Beach, in opposing an
amendment that 50,000 should be paid to
the Queen Consort for her sole use, said
there was no reason to conceal the amount
proposed by the committee for Queen Al
exandra, which Is 33,000.
DEFENSE IN KENNEDY MURDER
TRIAL WILL OPEN TODAY.
Insanity Is to Be the Chief Plea
Case Will Probably Go. to
Jury Saturday. '
KANSAS CITY, Mo., June 10. The state
in the case- of Lulu Prince Kennedy,- on
trial for murdering her husband, rested
this afternoon, and court adjourned until
tomorrow morning, wllen the defendant's
side will be presented. The case will prob
ably be given to the jury some time Sat
urday. Today the state adduced additional evi
dence to prove their claim that Kennedy
was forced to marry Lulu Prince at the
point of a revolver; ttiat Will Prince fur
nished the weapon and nerved hex up to
committing the crime; that the Princes
r conspired to kill Kennedy, and predicted
the murder days before it occurred, and
that the woman's claim that she was In a
delicate condition and shot her husband in
a fit of temporary insanity, produced by
this condition, was untrue.
Tomorrow the defense will begin its tes
timony to show that Mrs. Kennedy in
herited insanity; that Kennedy had ruined
to rise, and was roughly thrust back by
a strong -man, who was trying to drug
her Into Insensibility. She detected the
pungent and burning odor, and, realizing
her situation, stuggled desperately but
was thrust back again by another of the
robbers, who .had come to his compan
ion's aid. Her thoughts flew to the help
less boy at her side, and at the thought
of his life she tore herself loose and
sprang to her feet, one of the men still-
clinging to her with his back to the door,
by which her husband was entering. A
shot rang out, and the murderer and his
companions fled. The noise of more than
one pair of feet on the oilcloth told her
there were two robbers In addition to the
ope that held her.
She opened the window and screamed
for help. Her husband gasped, "Walt
until I get my revolver," staggered Into
the other room, and stumbled back again
to fall dying at her feet.
Earl Kahney, the young son, told of
what he remembered of the murder. He
said he saw two men at the foot of the
bed, while the third man was holding
his mother.

Purpose Is to Keep Force of Strikers
Intact English Labor Orders May
Be Asked for Money.
TORONTO, June 10. The International
Machinists' Association, in convention to
day, decided to extend financial aid to
nonunion men who went out with mem
bers of the association. President O'Con.
nell stated that officials were not restrict
ed as to the 'amount nonunionlsts should
receive, but he added that In any event
it would be sufficient to Induce them to
remain in the fight to the end. Since
May 20, over $46,000 has been distributed
among strikers, and as yet no regular
system of benefits has gone Into force. A
resolution Vas. passed asking the Amer
ican Federation of Labor to levy an as
sessment, as provided for in their asso
ciation, to provide funds for the strikers.
In the event of a long-drawn-out fight,
an appeal for aid will also be made to
the trade organizations of Great Britain,
who were assisted by the machinists In
their struggle for an eight-hour day. Re
garding the question of finances, President
O'Conhell said that a special strike fund
amounting to $160,000 was still intact.
The convention almost unanimously
voted down a resolution pledging the as
sociation to socialism. It was also de
cided that a certificate of death from a
Christian Scientist doctor would not be
recognized in the future for death bene
fits.' President Q'Connell received word this
morning that 26 firms in California had
granted shorter hours and an Increase In

PARIS, June 11. The morning papers,
with few exceptions, comment upon the
unfavorable financial situation, ac shown
by the revenue returns, which, as com
pared with those of last year, have de
creased more than 43,000,000 francs. It Is
pointed out that this is not an oppor
tune time to introduce an income tax, a
fear of which is already driving capital
to seek investment abroad. The consensus
of press opinion is found in the following
quotation from the Gaulois:
"When taxes do not come In It Is a
certain sign of the Impoverishment of a
country; and when a country is becom
ing impoverished, It is a bad time to in
crease its burdens."

her, and that his refusal to acknowledge
her as his wife temporarily -deprived her
of her reason. Following, this the state
will offer evidence to show that she was
not a good woman before she met Philip
H. Kennedy.
"Mrs. Kennedy had recovered sufficiently
from her breakdown of Saturday to sit in
court this morning. She was pale and
appeared entirely worn out. It was only
with great effort that she kept her eyes
open, suffering apparently from extreme
weakness or the effects of sedatives given
to produce sleep. Attorney Nearlng, for the
defense, expressed the fear that she would
not be able to continue to bear the strain
for any length of time.
The first1 witnesses produced today by
the state were examined In an effort to
prove that the conspiracy to kill Ken
nedy was hatched -and carried out by the
woman's father, two brothers and herself.
Jack Caldwell testified to a conversation
with William Prince on the day following
his. sister's marriage at the courthouse to
Kennedy, at which ceremony William
Prince and his father were present. Wil
liam related the scene at the courthouse
to witness, and told of Kennedy's saying,
when friends congratulated him:
"I will not be a live man three weeks
from today."
Prince had retorted:
"Well, you-have prolonged your life by
tliis marriage."
Prince had also admitted to witness that
the marriage had been forced upon Ken
nedy. Then, later, when Prince and his
father had called at Kennedy's office and
tried to collect $40 for Mrs. Kennedy's
board, William Prince related to the wit
ness that Kennedy had run out of the
office. He practically admitted that he
and his father were armed at the time,
and that Kennedy was "under the shadow
of a gun."
Kennedy had been married but a month
when he waB killed. Saturday it was ad
duced that Bert Prince had forecasted
the murder.
A newspaper reporter told of Mrs. Ken
nedy and her brother William coming to
his office after the marriage. Mrs. Ken
nedy wanted Kennedy "roasted In the
paper," and William said that the mar
riage was forced to prevent Kennedy
marrying another woman.
E. J. Curtis testified to a conversation
with C. W. Prince, the father, after the
marriage. Prince had said:
"I was not going to let this man jilt my
daughter. If things don't go right, you
will have a good deal more sensational
things than that to write about."
Prince had mistaken Curti3 for a re
porter. Two witnesses testified to seeing Mrs.
Kennedy and William Prince going In the
direction of Kennedy's office on the after
noon of the murder. Elizabeth Jackman
told of the two boarding a car for down
town, and of William Prince requesting
his sister to do something. Witness did
not catch William's word, but heard har
answer:
"All right; I will."
It Is the theory of the state that Prince
furnished the prisoner the revolver with
which she killed Kennedy, and accom
panied her to near the scene of the. kill
ing, nerving her to the point of commit
ting the crime.
MIbs Jackman testified that Will Prince
called on her after the murder. He be
lieved Miss Jackman would be a witness
In the case, and asked 'her to testify that
she did not see him with Mrs. Kennedy on

Palmer tfwo weeks ago to grant these In
junctions. I have great respect for ouf
courts as such, but when a District Judge
prostitutes the bench to such low ends I
confess to you that I am greatly astounded
and deeply grieved."
Mr. Talmage Is quoted as having said:
"It would be worth while for the sa
loon men to pay Judge Palmer $20,000 to
make the injunction permanent, but if it
were accomplished, it would result In
a great upheaval of the Christian people
of Denver."
"It Is time to call a halt In this whole

Palmer, "and I, for one, am going to 'put
forth my hand and see If these men who
have stated, If they have been correctly
quoted, that I would receive a bribe, and

low ends, can be properly punished."
PRESIDENT'S DAY.
CENTRAL UNION GIVES AID.
Also Calls Upon Affiliated Unions to
Assist Strikers.
NEW YORK, June 10. At a recent
meeting of the Central Federated Union,
the privilege of the floor was given to a
committee from the International Asso
ciation of Machinists, who asked permis
sion to lay the case of the striking ma
chinists before the body. A. Kunzelma,
of this committee, said that the principal
point now was to keep 20,000 nonunion
men, who had gone on a strike with the
union men from rushing back to work.
"There are 50,000 machinists on strike
for the shorter workday throughout the
United States." he continued. "Of thtsa
30.000 belong to the union, and we Have
to keep the other 20,000 in line. We ac
cept the challenge of the National Trades
Association, and will fight until we win
or until the end. Should we win, as 1
hope and believe. It means a nine-hour
day for 650,000 people throughout the
United States."
He said that the fight would be a long
and bitter one. and asked the central
body t'o lend Its aid financially and other
wise. It will require $150,000 a week, he
said, to pay strike benefit's for the non
union mer.
The meeting voted to give $100 directly
to the machinists, and adopted a resolu
tion directing the secretary to write to
all the affiliated unions asking for finan
cial assistance for the strikers.

follows:
"From bad to worse Is the story of
a hard cld when It settles on the lungs
and spreads catarrh through the sys-"
tem. From sick to well Is the story
when you use Peruna. I have tried 11
twice and each time I had a hard cold, . .
and although one was In midsummer
and the other In midwinter, Peruna..
cured me each time. I give It ray'
highest endorsement It Is well de

A UNITED STATES SENATOR'S WIFE
PRAISES PERUNA.
Mrs. F. E. Warren, wife of the lateT
Governor and now United States Sena-1
tor F. E. Warren, of Wyoming, writes J
the following voluntary testimonial to the
value of Peruna. She says: f
'.I am never without Peruna either
In my home or In my travels. It Is
trulya greattriumph of scientific medi
cine. I am constantly troubled with
coughs', colds, etc., but thanks to your
good medicine, Peruna. I always find a
prompt cure. 1 believe no medicine
ever brought before the public has
effected so many permanent cures as
Peruna"-Mrs. F. E. Warren, 1S45
Wyoming St., Washington, D. C.
Catching cold In the Summer is a more
frequent occurrence than is most gen-
ness and surety with which Peruna acts
In these cases has saved many lives.
A large dose of Peruna should be taken
at the first appearance of a cold in Sum
mer, followed by small and oit-reDeatct
orally supposed. Winter Is generally sup-j doses. There Is no other remedy that
posed to be the time for colds. But cool
nichts alternating with hot days, sudden
showers following sultry heat, profuse
perspiration and cooling draughts, are all
peculiar to Summer, which causes a mul
titude of people to catch cold.
Summer colds require prompt treat
ment. They are always grave, and
sometimes danjerous. The prompt-
medical science can furnish, so reliable
and quick in Its action as Peruna.
If you do not derive prompt and satis
factory results from the use of Peruna,
write at once to Dr. Hartman. giving a
full statement of your case and he will
be pleased to give you his valuable ad
vice gratis.
Address Dr Hartman. President of The
Hartman Sanitarium, Columbus, Ohio.

SURPRISE IN MURDER CASE.
Pittsburg Man Plended Guilty Ac
complices Say They Are Innocent.
PITTSBURG. June 10. The trial of John
and Edward Blddle, Walter Dormah, alias
R. D. Wilcox, for the murder of Grocer
Thomas D. Kahney, and Detective Patrick
Fitzgerald, was opened today. The Bid
dies entered a plea of not guilty, but
Dorman created a surprise by pleading
guilty.
The terrible double tragedy for which
the defendants are held responsible oc
curred April 12. For weeks preceding the
city was terrorized by a series of bur
glaries and robberies. Kahney was shot
down In his home while standing un
armed in his night clothes, and Fitz
gerald was killed a few hours later while
attempting to arrest the defendants. Tle
wives of Edward Blddl$ and Walter Dor
man were arrested at the same time, and
will be tried on charges of receiving
stolen goods. '
The defendants will be tried separately,
and the case of John Blddle was called
first. It is believed that Dorman will turn
state's evidence.
The widow of the murdered man was
called, and told graphically the story of
the night of the murder. Having a
strange intuition of coming evil, she had
gone through the house to see that all
was 8ecurer and finally fell asleep with
her boy. She was awakened Dy feeling a
hand and cloth over her face. She tried

Challenges His Opponents to Prove
That He Is a Heretic.
SALINA, Kan., June 10. Professor
Frank D. Tubbs, recently removed from
the chair of natural sciences in the Wes
leyan University for alleged heresy, said
today of his case:
"I knew nothing of the movement to
oust me, until the thing was actually done.
It? Is usual to give notice of a month or
so before action, of that kind Is taken. I
am not a heretic. I challenge any member
of the board of trustees, any preacher in
the Northwest Kansas Conference, or any
one else, to point out a single utterance
of mine that he has heard that is In op
position to the doctrines of the Methodist
church. I am a consistent believer lrt
evolution as the method -which God has
employed to bring about things In this
world. I don't believe God has gone about'
his work In a haphazard manner; but has
had a distinct iriethod. Evolution is the
only theory of this method adopted and
taught by prominent scientists of the
world today. I have" abundant1 letters from
professors In the leading universities o
America and England, all testifying to
the truth of the theory of evolution. I be
lieve in the fight of every man to inquire
where the Blbe came from, who wrote
It and what Its- purposes are. The Ideas
which result from such Investigations are
naturally various, and while I am not a
teacher of this subject, I hold no opinions
that are not taught in the regularly au
thorized theological schools of the Meth
odist church, whose teachers are elected
bv th blshoDs of the church. Before I
left South America Bishop Vincent fully
questioned my beliefs, approved them, and
reappointed me to the seminary."
The' opponents of Dr. Tubbs refuse to
make any direct' charge against him other
than that his teachings are not In accord
with the doctrines of the church. The
orthodox and liberal elements of the
Northwest Conference of the Methodist
church apparently are lining up for a
struggle as a result of the dismissal of
Professor Tubbs. It appears the trouble
has been" growing for more than a year,
and the dismissal of Dr. Tubbs brought a
crisis. Borne of the younger ministers as
sert that the ones who are making the
charges against Dr. Tubbs are going out'
of their way to make trouble, ana vney
dnh them "heresy-hunters." Nearly all
the MethodiBt theological schools are rep
resented. In .the Methodist? conference, and
many of them are supporters of Dr.
Tubbs, but the older and more othodox
ministers are In the majority, and control
