This Unprecedented Honor Is Bestow
ed Upon the City of Bonn.
HBRLIN. June 20. At the kontraera
of the Itorusia Htudcnts corps which
was held at Bonn, Emperor William
who was present, referred In a speech
to the Empress of Civnnany who wit
nessed the kotnmerx from the gallery
or the building. Alluding to ithe ores
ence of his wife, the emperor said:
"The chroniclers record that when
our forfathers met In tournament It
was perfectly natural that the circle
of ladles should witness their deeds,
and with pride the victor received the
wreaths presented by a lovely hand.
It was thus also at Wartburg when
they seJied the harp and lyre and sang
In conieHltJon. Never before, so long
as the history of the German univer
sities has been written has any uni
versity received such- an honor as Is
conferred today upon that of Bonn.
In company with the beauty of Bonn
and surrounded by ladies of princely
rank, Her Majesty the Empress, the
llrst princess of he land, has appeared
nt a student's kommerx. This unpre
cedented honor has lieen accorded to
the city of Bonn and to the Borusla,
n student's corps. I hope and expect
thnt nil the young members of the llo
russla corps upon whom the eye of the
'empress
has rested today have re
ceived an inspiration for the rest of
their lives. I call for a strong sal-
amnnder for Iter majesty. Hurrah."

man, employed i a driller by the O.
R. 4 N. Co., win found Jammed be
tween aome old boxes back of the
I W'lllf,meUe Iron Work at the corner
of Third and Gilsan streets tWs morn
ing. The man had been murdered ana
robbed, of at least the circumstances
would seem to bear out this theory.
The police think he was either sand
bagged or drugged, and then relieved
of Ms watch and money.
It was a few minutes before 7 o'clock
this morning when Charles Wagner,
of 554 Railroad street .Albino, discov
ered the body. Wagner 1 employed
by the Union Meat Company, which
occupies quarters next door to the
Iron works. There Is a driveway back
of the iron works, from Third to
Fourth street. North of the drive
way 1 a yard where the company
stores its old boxes, frames and dis
carded machinery.
The road Is very sandy, and as Wag
ner walked along he noticed a track
extending from the driveway to the
boxes, as if eome heavy thing had
been dragged through the dirt. He
followed the track and came upon the
body of a man, almost hidden from
vHew between two large wooden
frames. Thinking the man was drunk.
Wagner shook the form .whereupon he
discovered that the man was dead.
About this time Grover Sundt, of
334 East Bight street, come along and
Wagner called to him. The two men
threw some boards over the track
to keep 4t from being obliterated, and
then went after Policeman Stover, who
was on duty at the Union depot- This
officer and Detective Cordano were
soon on the scene, and a little later
Mie coroner arrived.
There was no outward Indications
that the man had been foully dealt
with. Not a single abrasion or so
much as a scratch could be found on
any part of his body. The neck and
throat, ho;vevr. were discolored.
The dead man was about 45 years
old.
Two feet from the hnt was found a
dirty handkerchief, and near the
handkerchief was a memorandum
book. Tn the book was a flashlight
photograph of the Interior of Blazler's
saloon. Several German name wen-
