Newton, Kan., March 31.— A. D
Bailey, an express messenger r ft h e
Wells-Fargo company, was killed by an
unknown persorPon Santa Fe train No
116, between Florence and Newton
early Sunday morning.
The murder
was very brutal, with robbery as the
object. Both the le a l and the through
safer were ransacked and at least $1
000 in money and some jewelry taken
The amount the robbers secured is not
known.
The dead body of Messenger Bailey
was found at 4 o’clock Sunday morning
when the train reached Newton. It
was stretched on the floor of the car
the head beaten to a pulp and lying in
a pool of blood. The Istck of the skull
was crushed and the end of the ca
where it was lying was spattered with
blood. The plood spatterB reached to
the ceiling.
There was no evidence of any strug.
gle, the indications pointing to the
commission of the murder while the
messenger was asleep, before he could
offer resistance. Bailey was seen alive
at Strong City.
At Peabody someone
opened the car door just enough to
throw out a package of waybills and
then closed it quickly.
The custom of the messenger has been
to go to sleep soon after leaving Flor
ence and it is possible that he did this
Sunday night.
After being struck
while sleeping, and rendered uneon
scions, his body rolled to the Door, and
the robber, after beating him on the
head, covered it with the dead man
coat. One blow was struck at the
man’s face with some sharp instrument
apparently a hatchet, which broke the
jaw bone. From the dead man’s pock
eta the keys were removed and the Bates
ransacked. Then the keys were put
back into Bailey’s overcoat, the coat
folded and put in his grip, where it
was found later.

to be treachery to the Hermit Kingdom,
were this morning charged w ith mur

deed in the coutta of thia city. Held

at the jail of his victim's death, re
ceived the news without surprise and
with manifest delight. Bince the day
of the shooting Chang has been ex
pressing the hope that Btevena’ wounds
might prove fatal.
Last night, when
asked if he was sorry for what he had
done, Chang said: “ No; I am glad.
He was no friend of Corea, and he is
better dead.’ ’
There is a movement on foot among
the Japanese to ertot a monument to
Btevena.
Japanese commenced going
about among their fellow countrymen
thia morning broaching the idea and
suggesting that subscriptions be forth
coming. The proposition is still in
the tentative stage, but, judging from
the feeling the Japanse-e show toward
the dead American, there will be no
difficulty in bringing it to accomplish
ment. Whether the monument shall
be erected in this city, in Tokio or in

Chicago, March 27.— An amazing
system of robbery and graft, involving
city employes and big business firms,
and extending V>ack through several
years, has been discovered in the water
department. Two employee, including
a division head, were removed, and 38
subordinate employee will be dis
charged. Some of them may be in
dicted.
Through tampering with meters and
the connivance of city employes, seve
ral large corporations have defrauded
the city of hundreds of thousands of
dollars in water taxes. City employes
have sold meters to junk dealers and
bartered materials for drlnka in i
loons.
Supplies never used by the city were
purchased ostensibly for the water de
partment and then used by plumbere
in private haeinesse.
The payrolls were padded with idlers
and incompetents. The force, which
originally numbered 200 men, was re
duced by Superintendent W. J. Mc-
Court, of the water buretfu, to 50.

Beattie, Wash., March 27.— Troops

Mexico, City, March 28.— Chilapa, a
town of 16,04)0 inhabitants in the state
of Guerrero, has been shaken by au
earthquake and burned.
The shocks, two in number, occurred
early last evening and were followed
by Ure, which originating in a dozen
places among the tumbling buildings,
joined in a conflagration that swept the
town.
Governor Damian Flores, chief exec
utive of the state of Guerrero, who is
at present in this city, had at 9 o’clock
this evening just received the first offi
cial advices from Cbilapa.
The mes
sage eaye that, although a number of
the buildings of the town were leveled
to the ground, no lives were lost. The
police quarters and the mayor’s office
were destroyed and the jail badly dam
aged.
Great fiatures were made in the
streets and open fields.
In the neighboring town of Ometepec
the jail was destroyed and 30 prisoners
made their escape. Troops are guard
ing the public buildings that are stand
ing in Chilapa, but perfect order pre
vails.
Later returns from Chilapa show,
however, that the dispatch received by
Governor Flores was ultra conservative.
The town was practically destroyed,
though no lives were lost. Most of the
buildings that were leveled were resi
dences.
Thirty-four shocks have been record
ed during the past 24 hours by the seis
mograph at the national observatory at
Tabuyaca. Most of these shocks, how
ever, were imperceptible except to the
delicat needle of the instrument.

Victoria, B. C., March 28.— That the
north pole is shifting and the climate
is changing, making the Northern teiri-
tories of this continent warmer and
Norther Asia colder, is the theory to
support which Mose B. Cotworth, of
York, England, has been gathering evi
dence in Alaska, from where he has re
turned on his way to England.
A curious effect of this change, it is
said, may be a number of boundary
difficulties between Canada and the
United States, especially in the Eastern
port'on.
This boundary is fixed by
latitude, and if the north pole is really
moving, the latitudes change also, ren
dering it advisable that the boundary
he speedily marked everywhere by
permanent monuments, where it has
not yet been so marked already.
The movement, Cotworth says, is
caused by the immense accumulations
cf ice along the Canadian shore of the
Arctic ocean, and especially in Baffin’s
land and Greenland.

Paris, March 25.— Many French offl-
wra frankly lay Hat the impressive
demonstration given by the American
battleship fleet in its journey to Magda-
leua bay of its ability to keep at sea
raises the American navy to an equali
ty with that of Great Britain.
I f the
return journey is as su uetaful as the
trip around Booth America hae been,
they declare, the Amtrican navy will
have no superior in the world.
The French minister of marine, M.
Thomson, is so Impressed with the re
sult of this cruise that he is instructing
Lieutenant Commander de Blanpre,
the French naval attache at Washing
ton, to procetd to Ban Francisco and
send a full report of the condition of
the ships and the lessons of the cruisr.
The lack ol boiler accidents during
the voyage already htts called out criti
cism of the contrast furnished by the
French navy, where trouble in ths en
gine room is constant, and M. Thom
son has been interp lated as to why
the government does not use the Amer
ican type of boiler, which is now being
manufactured in France.
A salient feature of the cruise which
is attract! 1 g attention here is the suc
cess obtained from the American sys
tem of employing line officers in the en
gine rooms. This procedure up to the
present time has been regarded with
much skepticism in Ktench naval circles.
News of the decision to send the bat
tleship fleet back to the Atlantio coast
by way of Australia and the Suez canal
is received here as a crowning revelation
of the efficiency of the American navy.
The statement that the cruise is to be
extended in this manner has opened
the eyes of the French publio, which
has been led to believe that the Ametl-
can navy was a good deal of a “ bluff,”
and that the cruise around South Amer
ica would demonstrate the incapacity
of the vessels, and that if it was accom
plished the ships would be ready for
the scrap heap. Even in French naval
circlea tiie belief was general that this
long - o ago would develope structural
weaknesses in the vessels themselves,
or at least serious breakdowns in the
engine rooms. In view, of theee opin
ions, the anninncemei t that the fleet
arrived at Magdalena bay ahead of it«
schedule, ready for taiget practice and
in better condition than when it sailed

K illed by
Washington, March 25.— It has re
quired a second day’s consideration for
men in public life in Washington to
fully grasp the sweeping character of
the decisions handed dow n by the Su
preme court in the Minnesota and
North Carolina railroad rate law cases
and to realize their important effects in
restoring confidence in railway securi
ties and bringing back the prosperity of
the nation, temporarily checked by the
money stringency of last fall. Aa a re
sult of these decisions, a brighter era
for railroad property is dawning.
The immediate resulte brought about
b) these decisions are:
1. No state, through its officers or
it« courts, can enforce a rate law paesed
by its legislature pending the settle
ment of the law’s constitutionality by
the Federal courts, when direct appeal
is made to the latter.
2. The rate laws of two stateB have
been wiped out completely and every
other state in the union that has enact
ed rate legislation is in doubt sb to
whether its law is valid.
3. The overwhelming power of a
Federal injunction to restrain, not the
action of state courts, bnt individuals
from proceeding through mandamus in
the state courts to enforce that which
the Federal court seeks to stay, has
been established by the highest tribu
nal in the land. And thia is only an
other way of declaring that the power
of a state court ¡ b nugatory, cnce the
Federal authority interferes.
4. Any rate law which charges a
state, through its officers, with the
duty of administering it is open to Fed
eral inquiry the moment the Etate at
tempts to force the law, and such inter-
ferene is not a contravention of the
constitutional provision giving a state
immunity from proeecution.
