DESPERATE DEED OF A CARPENTER Be Was Oat of Work and Ills Family Was Destitute A Deliberately Planned Crime. Chicago, Feb. 5. The entire family of sir, consisting of his father, mother, wife and three children, were murdered last night by Richard Klattke, a Lake view carpenter, who completed the work by killing himself. The dead are : Richard Klattke, a carpenter, 39 years old ; Kate Klattke, his wife, John Klattke, his father, 73; Mina Wilhelmine, his mother-in-law, 71; Mina Klattke, his daughter, 9; Anna Klattke, his daughter, 8, and Emma Klattke, his daughter, 7. The members of the Klattke family were found dead early this morning in their little cottage, at 207 Berskau avenue, two blocks from Cuyler station, a suburb Chicago, on the Northwest ern railroad, by Matthew" Brown, a ealoon-keeper, who called to 6ecure the services of the carpenter. Each of the seven corpses had a bullet wound in the head and the death of all bad evidently been instantaneous. Beside the body of Richard Klattke lay a revolver, and empty cartridge shells were scattered about the room. There were no indica tions of a struggle on the part of any of the victims. A heavy odor, which appeared to be that ot chloroform, pervaded the house. From this it was surmised that Klattke first chloorformed the entire -family and then deliberately aimed and put a bullet into the brain of each. Everything pointed to a deliberately planned murder by the head of the family, and a deBire to place himself and his family beyond any further earthly troubles. Klattke was despondent, his family were cold and hungry. Since Christmas he had been out of work, and he ended his troubles just as relief was in sight. This morning the next-door neighbor, Adolph Schmidt, called at the cottage with the joyful news that he had found a job for Klattke. At the same time Matt Brown arrived on the same er rand. A close examination of the remains showed one of the victims alone had any warning of her fate. This was Mrs. Kate Klattke, the wife of the murderer. She, it appears, struggled with her hus band before the fatal ehot was fired. Her hands were scratched and her cloth ing torn. She bad evidently been overpowered and thrown be'side the dead body of her little 7-year-old daugh ter, Emma. TO RECOGNIZE CUBA. WORLD'S NEWS IN BRIEF. Rlguts of a Belligerent to be Accorded Her. Washington, Feb. 5. The senate committee on foreign relations today agreed upon a substitute for the resolu tion heretofore reported on the question of the recognition of Cuba, and author ized Senator Morgan to report it to the senate. It is : "Resolved by the senate, the house of representatives, concurring. That in the opinion of congress a condition of war exists between the government of Spain and the government proclaimed' and for some time maintained by force of arms by the people of Cuba, and that the United States ol America should main tain a strict neutrality between the con tending powers, and accord each all the rights of belligerents in the ports and territory of the United States' The committee also voted to make an effort to take up the Cuban question in the senate as soon as the urgent defici ency bill and the resolution for the dis tribution of the appropriation bills can be disposed of. The.wish for arbitration of the Ven ezuelan question is gaining ground in England. In the house yesterday, Delegate Cat ron, of New Mexico, introduced a bill to prevent the pugilistic festival taking place" near E! Paso.

Jnstice Morris, in announcing a de cision of the court of appeals for the District of Columbia, ruled that while intoxication may be a disease, yet if it is voluntary and leads to commission of crime, it is a crime in itselt. General Campos, in a recent inter view, said: "Weyler will accomplish no more, no less than I ; but in case he fails he will not be relieved. Having been appointed by a conservative gov ernment, and being backed by the liber al party, only a great and unexpected catastrophe could bring about his re moval." Colonel A. J. Fountain, one of the best-known men in New Mexico, was kidnapped on the road from Las Craces to White Oaks, by cattle-thieves, and is believed to have been killed, together with his little eon who was his only traveling companion.
