T ABRUZZ1 TO WED MISS ELKIXS IX DECEMBER Opposition to the Wedding by tho Royal Kalian Family of Xo Avail The Duke Considered to lie a For tune Hunter by Uio Queen The Reception of Kathcrinc in Royal Circles Will Xo Doubt lie Very Pleasant for Her In View of the Circumstance. Rome, Sept. 8. The Milan I'nione, a clerical paper, published an article which has been reprinted by the whole Italian press, to the effect that the Duke of Abruzzl will probably soon go to the United States to make di finite arrangements for his mar riage with Miss Katherine Elklns, daughter of United States Senator Stephen B. Elklns of West Virginia, and the ceremony will take place in December, on the duke's birthday. According to the Unlone, the count ol Turin, a few days ago, visited Dowager Queen Margherlta at Gross ney, where she is spending the sum mer and attempted to overcome her opposition to the marriage of his brother, tho duke of Abruzzl, to Miss Elklns. It had been the intention of the duke to have tho mntnage cere mony take place In December If the opposition of the royal family could ho removed, but during tho- recent celebration of the silver wedding of the duke nnd duchess of Genoa at which all the Savoy princes were present, opposition on the part of the queen appeared stronger than ever. She said that her views on the sub ject hod not changed and she refused to give her consent to tho marriage. She objected to such an alliance also because sho believed many American thought that tho duke of the Abruzzl had sought marriage with Miss El klns when he found the American girl would como into a large estato. The count declared that the duke was ready to marry Miss Elklns even without the queen's consent and left for Spezliv to inform his brother of the failure of his mission. CUMMINS MAY HE DEFEATED.

Stanley Ketchel of Michi gan, middleweight champion of the world, was knocked out In the twelfth round at Jeffries Vernon arena at 4 o clock this afternoon by Billy Papke of Illinois, who is now middleweight champion of the world. It was a ease of Illinois thunder bolt against the Michigan cyclone and the thunderbolt won. Both men entered the ring In apparent perfect condition and neither had ever been knocked out. Ketchel had a decision over Papke in a previous, ten round bout. Pnpke's From First. The fight was practically over one minute and twenty .seconds, after tho gong sounded. From that time on It v as merely a question as to how long Ketchel would last. Papke tore Into Ketchel with such fury that the un defeated ring champion was simply lifted off his feet four times within the next minute. Papke knocked Ketchel to the mat for the count and from the first knock down Ketchel never really recovered his form. He was a defeated man, dazed, bleeding, struggling from 20 blows In the face and yet he came back and stayed with a terrible determination. And for at least three rounds he held his own with the victorious challenger. When Ketchel stepped to the cen ter for the second round It was seen that his right eye was closed. At the next Intermission his seconds lanced the eye socket and sucked the blood but Ketchel never regained the sight of his right eye.

BULLET WHIZZED OVER THE PRESIDENT'S HEAD Hurried Trip of Chief Wllkle and Force of Secret Service Men to Sagamoi. Expluincd Roosevelt Wai&cd to Search Bushes Himself Wus Dissuaded by Friend Might Have lU-en Fired by a Cureless Hunter, -Oyster Bay, Sept. 8. It was learn ed today that an attempt was made to assassinate President Roosevelt on last Saturday while he was out rid ing on the Cove road near Sagamore. The assassin fired from the bushes along the roadside, the bullet whiz zing over the president, who pulled his- horse up and "-anted to search the bushes but a friend dissuaded him. This explains the hurried trip of Chief Wllkle and a corps of secret service men to Sagamore Major Wadsworth, who was riding with President Roosevelt at the tlmei declared today that he thought the bullet was fired by hunters engaged In target practice and not at the president. J The" attempt to afsasslnate the president was made known when a crank armed with an antiquated bull dog revolver was caught near the president's house yesterday by the secret service guards. The man de scribed himself as John Coughlln, a detective and when stopped by the secret service men. presented a card upon which was Inscribed his nnme and the word "officer." He said that he had come to ask the presi dent to order out 10,000 troops to catch yeggmen who had been terror izing Boston. Coughlln Is supposed to have reached Oyster Bay on the 12:19 train. He walked three miles to Sagamore Hill. The road leading to the president's! house forks at the tennis court, 200 yards from the house and forms a loop about the president's home. The two guards who are on duty In the day time at tend at either end of the house and their view commands both roads. One of the rules for visitors at Sagamore Hill is that no one shall come on foot; so when Secret Service Agent Adams caught sight of Adams tolling up the hill road, he guessed that something was wrong, and motioned for the man to go back. Coughlin kept right on. Adams ran down the road to meet him. Coughlin produced his card and explained in the most casual way that he had come to confer with the president concerning the recent out rages by yeggmen hi Boston and to lead back such troops as the presi dent saw fit to order out. Attempts to Draw Gun. The secret service men tried to ex plain that the president was not see ing visitors at that moment, hoping to get him quietly out of the grounds, coughlin hesitated a mo fit HERE SATURDAY Saturday morning and will presuma bly spend the day here. President Kerr has written Judge IaiwoII of his coming and ho has asked the assist arce of local people In the work they will have to do. For many months a branch experi ment station has been desired In this county for It Is believed that such a station would be highly beieflclal to the irrigation section while a dry farming station would materially help ir solving the problem of the big ranches In the country. Seemingly the county Is now In line for these things If President Kerr and his party can be shown that they benefit. will be of I T ment and then slid his hand toward the back pocket of his trousers. Ad ams grappled with him without fur ther parley. Coughlln struggled for a moment but he is a slight built man and Adams had no difficulty in holding him until Agent Sloan came to his assistance. Sloan search ed the man and found In his hip pocket a 32 calibre revolver of the "bulldog" type. The weapon was wrapped In a woolen bag and accord ing to the secret service men, was not loaded. The slight struggle near the tennis court had not been ob served at the house and the secret sfrrvlcc rnen iwfthout alarming the president's family, got automobiles and carried Coughlln to the Oyster Bay town hall where he was arraign ed before Justice of the Peace Frank lin committed Coughlln to the county Jail at Mineola. Coughlln will be examined as to his sanity. Tleen In Asylum. According to the secret service men Coughlln told them that he had been confined for three years In an asy lum for the Insane. President Roose velt had returned from a horseback ride only a short time before Cough lin appeared at Sagamore Hill. He did not witness the arrest of the crank und had not been Informed of the occurrence this evening.
