Harris, a farmer, ' liring five miles
south of Waukesha, on tbe Mukwooago
road, and bis wife, were murdered this
morning: when at breakfast. ' A hired
man was wounded, but escaped. A
hired irirl was also wounded, and is
likely to die.
.The crime was committed by Wil
liam Pouch, a farmhand. Pouch
worked for Harris about two years ago,
Last.night at bis request be was given
lodging over night.
About 5 o'clock this morning Harris
and a hired man went to the yard to
milk the cows. Mrs. Harris and the
girl were preparing breakfast. Pouch
left his room quietly, and going to the
yard, bade the men there good morn
ine. Harris and the hired man were
sitting on stools near eacn otner.
Pouch drew his reyolver and fired at
the farmer, killing him. He then shot
the hired man, inflicting probably a
fatal wound.
Pouch then walked leisurely to the
kitche n. He told Mrs. Harris her hus
band would not be in for a few minutes,
and he would eat his breakfast at once.
The woman waited upon the murderer,
who seemed to relish his meal.
After breakfast Pouch started to
walk toward the door. Before Mrs.
Harris' realized - what was about to
happen be wheeled around and shot
her in the breast. He then fired at
the hired girl The farmer's wife died
soon afterward. The hired girl has a
chance for recovery. Pouch then rode
away on a bicycle.
A posse of farmers is in hot pursuit.
The farmers are greatly excited and
enragjd, and should they get hold of
the murderer he will undoubtedly be
lynched.

News of the Greek Betreat Bas Plunged
Them In Despair.
New York, May 7. A special to the
Journal from Athens says:
There is great depression in Athens
at the news of the retreat of the Greek
army toDomokos, notwithstanding the
recent victory. Many wild rumors are
afloat M. Scouloudis, minister of for
eign affairs, in an interview insisted
that the ministers were not discour
aged by the position, as the Greek
troops had held their own at all points
against odds of nearly three to one in
the two lines. He said the order for
retreat was given after a council of
war held here to prevent the Turks
from being able to attack the Greeks
on the flank where their numerical su
periority made success possible. .
The commanders have no doubt
been to hold their positions Indefi
nitely. The wounded men, arms and
ammunition were transported back in
perfect order.
Being asked if tbe removal of Col
onel Vassos from Crete was a prelim
inary to the withdrawal of Greek
troops, he replied: .
It has nothing-to do with it. It
was considered that his presence was
required here on the frontier. The
withdrawl of troops from Crete is not
under consideration by the council."
The minister refused any information
as to the action of tbe great powers.
Your correspondent finally asked:
"May the policy of your government
be described as one of war or peace'r"
As we are at war, ours must natur-
,lly be a war policy, but the object of
the war is peace.

announcement us to the state of the in
surrection and the outlook; which
causes a sneer in Havaca, where food
is scarce and sound money scarcer.
As the situation grows worse at every
point, the palace reports become more
rose-colored and nore at war with the
facts. For instance, for a centen,
which is worth $.3 30 in Spanish gold,
one may get the equivalent of 811 30
in paper money today in Havana.
It is significant that tbe paper money
of Spain is at a greater discount at
this moment, when the reforms are
said to be at hand, than at any time
since the war began.
The fact is, no one pays any atten
tion to General Weyler's proclamation
about the peace he says he has brought
about, or his talk about the golden
time that is coming, now that the
queen regent has been kind enough to
sign the reforms. These things are
more sound. But the paDcr money fs
a grim fact, Ttnur- the determination
with which all persons refuse! to have
it thrust upon them at par has forced
even General Weyler to recognize that
the money question is superior to his
decree, and to abandon his declared in
tention of punishing any one who
looked twice at the sbinnlasters.'
The plight of Spain is bad enough
without the rioting, which would be
general if an attempt were made to
force this paper down the throats of
men already grown sullen because of
tbe disastrous and lagging military
policy of General Weyler. No one
here can see how Spain will be able to
carry much longer the financial bur
den with which she is saddled, and
which increases tremendously every
month. Still, there are official an
nouncements that the military out
look is roseate, despite tbe fact that
engagements are daily reported, and
wounded soldiers carried into the gar
rison in the towns prove the activity
of the rebels in every province.

noyed the congregation last Sunday by

the
Paris, May 10. A semi-official com
munique was published this afternoon,
saying tha impression prevails that
negotiations between Greece and Tur
key will not be attended by great diffi
culties, and will soon have a satisfac
tory issue. The powers, it is further
stated, have already agreed among
themselves upon the conditions of
peace.
Germany's hesitation was due to the
fact that the Greek government, in a
circular to the representatives at the
courts of the powers, did not formally
adhere to the Cretan autonomy pro
vision, as demanded by .-the powers
Greece subsequently gave tbe neces
sary assurances in this respect, and
the German minister at Athens bas
been instructed to actively support the
efforts of the powers to conclude peace.

completely occupied and burned Vel-

At 7:30 o'clock Thursday evening.
the defeat of the Greeks was complete
and tbe pass to Volo open to the Turks.
The searchlights ot the warsnlps on
the bay flashing up the mountain sides
were of great assistance to the retreat
ing Greeks, as they showed the roads.
Over a dozen cannon were abandoned
and captured by the Turks. Two hun
dred wounded soldiers were brought to
Volo. The correspondent of the As
sociated Press is of the opinion that
many Greek: soldiers were left on the
field. It is impossible to estimate the
killed.
Advices received from the frontier
at 3 o'clock this afternoon are that
General Smolenskl's shattered army
was cut In two. The left wing retired
to Almyro. What was left of the right
wing came toward Volo, broken and
demoralized.
The retreat across the mountains
was almost as bad as the panic which

take this step, by their refusing to re
sign: Under the law, the governor Is forced
to state his reasons for removing any
officer of a board. . The governor said
he had his choice to state his reasons
as misconduct, malfeasanse or incom
petency.' In his opinion, misconduct
being the least offensive, this reason
is given in the written notice served
on the members of the board. .
The order removing the old board
sets forth that removals from office
and appointments to places in the dif
ferent state institutions have been
made by the board of audit and control
without regard to the special fitness
of the appointee,' is some instances
without consultation with the heads of
the departments, and so rapidly as to
interfere with the proper conduct of
affairs at these institutions; and that
other appointments, in the same hur
ried and ill-advised manner, were ap
parently to be made by the board.
The new board appointed by the gov
ernor, provided the appointees accept

SOUVENIR COINS.
So Premium oa Columbian Half Dollars
or Isabella Quarters.
Three years ago everybody wanted a
Columbian half dollar and an. Isabella
quarter, and wonted H bad. If any
body who wanted either of the world's
fair souvenirs bad enough .to pay over
a dollar for it, he could generally get it
without much trouble. Sentiment,
however, is just about as liable to slump
as the wheat market, and anyone Who
has- the hard money stiver mementoes
of the fair to-day could probably be per
suaded to part with a Columbian halt
dollar for about 51 cents, end hand over
the Isabella coin for about a cent plua
a quarter of a dollar. The coins never
enjoyed the popularity that was ex
pected. Two million five hundred thou
sand of the Columbian half dollar were
coined, and 40,000 Isabella quarters.
Foul hundred thousand of the half dol
lor and about 6,000 of the quarters are
still In the sub-treasury of the United
State right in Chicago in the Band-Mn-Xally
building. About a year and a half
ago a rule was made by the treasury if-.
part men t that these half dollar could
be evenly exchanged for gold. The
world's fair souvenir sentiment wa not
quite dead yet, and there was enough of
it alive to send $200,000 in gold buzzing
straight over to the subtreasury to pull
out $200,000 in Columbian halve, oi
400,000 of the coins. At that time there
was about 800,000 of the halve in tho
ubtrensury. About half of tfiia amount
was left after the first rush waa mad
to exchange gold for the halve on even.
terms. Almost th4s entire half still re
mains in the subtreasury, and there ap
pears to be no wild desire on the part of
holders of gold to exchange any of It lor
the Columbian souvenir. '
Ascistant Subtreasurer Jta C. Pratl
said that in all probability the treasury
department would some day give out
the Columbian silver money as ordinary
currency.
A most interesting regulation exist
regarding the disposition of the Isabella
quarters. As on iy 40,000 of the quarter
were ever coined they are, of course,
rare, and far more scarce thaa tha
halves. According to a rule of ' tho
treasury these quarters are only paid
out on drafts of world' fair official.
Of course, many have been taken out of
the treasury under this regulation, and
the $1,200 or $1,500 remaining in the
vault of the subtreasury will probably
e exhausted before very long by world'
fair drafts. Mr. Trntt said that o far
as be could see the half dollar were
not now prized very highly by the hold-
era of them, with, whom be had come in
contact in an official way, a he say
they come in quite often to the treasury
in ordinary business transactions, Jnat
a does the common-place currency,
without any attention being paid to
their souvenir qualities by the man
passing them in. Since the quarter
are not so plentiful, they are naturally
valued a little more highly, and ara et
dom, if ever, seen in the leurrency
handled in business transaction. Chi
