Kt'ROPK PRAISES ROOSEVELT.
LONDON. Any. !. President Roo'--velt's
declaration on trusts und the
i Monroe doctrine are both subjects of
extensive comment! In the London
press this morning. Discussion upon
the former matter cut rs less upon
the Intrinsic merits of the trust ques
tion than upon the outcome of the
president's sirusgle with the party
leaders. All the papers express admi
ration of President Hoosevelt's courage
and boldness, but hesitate to predict
the result.
The Dally News says: " Many chan
ces are on Mr. Roosevelt's side. St.
J. orge (toes out to meet the dragon and
the wishes of the whole worM arc
with him In his fight."
The Dally Telegraph expresses the
opinion that the trust question will
prove to be the most epoch- taking
Issue In American politics since Hry
nn's scheme on silver, and says there
Is absolutely no discernible limit to
to the vista of the polllt. al convulsions,
vicissitudes and divisions which may
bo the outcome thereof.
The Morning Post and Daily Chron
icle both admit that Great Ttrltnln has
no cause to ihvil at what they char
acterise us " President P-oosevelt's mo
dified Interpretation of Monro 'lm,"
which, plainly iatid, the declare to
be a suntlflcatlon of the status 0.110
on the American continent, and which
the Post says means that Rrltish pus
sessions In the Americas are to be se
cured by what is yrajtlcally a United
States guarartee.
The Chronicle thinks the matter
wears a different aspect to the conti
nental powers who see In South Ameri
ca th1 last and most tempting fields
for colonizatli'i and for new markets.
This paper doubts, however, whether
any power will risk the tremendous
chances of war with the United States
be the prixe ever so seductive,
" One thing seems clear," says the
Chronicle; " It Monwls.n Is ever se
riously challerned It will be soon. The
United States appears to realize this
and Is building a fleet to defend the
iloctWne,"
The Times says It believes that
President Roosevelt has reasserted
that Monroeism Is In a more distinct
and definite form than it has been
presented to the world by any per
son with authority to speak on the
subject since the policy of the doc
trine came into being, and says:
"As Monrolsm Is defined by Presi
dent Roosevelt In strict continuity,
Indeed, with its original conception
and objects, It Is a policy to which
Great Britain has nothing to take ex
ception and which we have no inter
est In obstructing, and at th" same

TWO MEN CONFESS KIM.lNfJ.
Men Who Shot Peter Nelson Are In
Jul! at Walla Walla.
WAM.A W.UXA. Aug. 2.-"I!IU"
Klllctt, for several years an engine
wiper at Pasco, und Oscar Dradshuw,
a son of a prominent fanner residing
a few miles from this city, are in the
county Jail, charged with having mur
dered Peter Nelson ,the Swede who
was hold up and shot at Pasco Mon
day morning. The cupture of the two
men was brouKht about by Sheriff Da
vh, of Franklin County, and Sheriff
Kees, of Walla Walla, who did some
sood detective work and acted quick
Iv upon a slluht 1 lew obtained soon
ufter the crime had been committed.
On Hriidshiiw, when he was urrested,
was a revolver with two chambers
empty, thought to be the one used In
klllltiv Nelson.
Klllctt is about H years of age,
while it is hiihl llradshaw is 1. Kll
lctt has been employed at I'asco for
some time, and rtradshuw was employ
ed bv the Northern Pacific as a fire
man on, a fremiti train running Into
Pasro. where the two became ac
quainted. Young Uradshaw has been
reared on a farm, and It was ar sur
prise io everyone when he was ion
nected with the crime.
After the men were locked up In
Jail they were given a "snouting" by
the officers and as a rerult, a practi
cal confession was made covering the
rime from start to finish, the men
declining that they shot the Swede
by accident. The younger of the two
entered the car and proceeded to hold
up Nelson, while the older man kept
watch outside. Nelson resisted when
his money was wanted, and Hrudshaw
claims that he was not accuHtomed to
he gun, and it was discharged acci
dentally. The revolver was given to
Rradshaw Just before the crime was
committed, by Klllctt. The two nien
will be arraigned In aourt on the
churne of murder.

the troops occurred this morning, and
as a result five prisoners are In the
I guard house and Captain J. Beaver
I Oearhart, of Company P. Twelfth regl
I ment, is suffering from a none wound

mining and cleaning coal. I he col
liery Is at the west end of the Pan

j were surrounded by strikers, who hurl
j ed rocks ut the soldiers and called
them hard names. While Jimmy Mar
' teen, an Italian, was in the act of
I hurling a stone at a car, several sol
j illers jumped oft and attempted to
I cupture him. Marteen offered resist
ance, and the soldiers were compelled
' to fix their bayonets. In the melee
j Marteen was wounded slightly In the
j leftside.
I The. troopers started back to camp,
I and as the cars rounded a curve just
outside of Summit Hill, at a point
where the tracks take an abrupt dip,
the motorman on the first car made
the discovery that the rails had been
greased. The cars were stopped and
soldiers were sent ahead to place sand
j upon the rails. When this had been
and for a time it looked like a riot.
As the first car was passing through
the mob. Captain Gearbart was struck
on the right shoulder by a stone. Sev
eral soldiers jumped from the car In
I pursuit of the stone thrower. After
j un exciting scuffle they captured Jos-
j eph McCann,.a young miner.
They proceeded again, but had not
j gone far when another crowd was
. encountered and the soldiers were
(again taunted and stoned. Half a
j dozen soldiers jumped off and captur
ed three men. who. It is said, were
, urging the crowd to attack the troorls.
I The men game their names as John
King, Timothy Kim? and John Kelly.
They were taken to camp at Manila
Park, where, together with McCann
and Marteen. they were placed un-
! der a heavy guard.
