As bearing on the reported agre: ment, it is pointed out here that Presi- dent 'Hayes of the Grand Trunk, who was lost on the Titanic, was strongly in favor of the extension of the Grand Trunk system to Providemce by the outhern New England, and that his death may have changed the rival poli- cles of the two great corporations, which before his death had reached an acute stage. The competing plan of the New Ha- ven, as against the Grand Trunk e: tension into New and territory, included the building of parallels of the Vermoni Central in 2 Hamp- shire and Vermont and enlargement of Canadian business, notably to and from Montreal, 1 GEORGETOWN HAS A | MURDER MYSTERY. | State Police and County Officials Work | on Various Theories, | Nov, 10.—State unty officials r search for « oung I with b riday, but man’ was much lian 1dvanc but not pund sub.

Washington, Nov. 10—James Byrce, the British ambassador to the United States, has tendered his resignation and will return to England. There has been no official announcement of the resignation and the embassy will make no statement, but it was learned to- night on high authority that Mr. Bryce informed_President Taft of his action at_the White House yesterday. While the news that Ambassador Bryce is to retire will be received with deep regret in official circles, and by the country generally, it is not wholly unexpected. There has been no break in the harmonious relations of the dis tingu ed Englishman and his gov- ernment, but it has been an open se- cret for some time that Mr. Bryce, ad- vancing in years, desired to surrender his post and give entire attention to the completion of the literary work which has occupicd so large a part of his life. His book on South America, written since his tour of that country two years ago, is jJust off the press, and he s about to bezin a work cov- ering his recent tour of Australia and New Zealand Facing the British ambassador to the United States just now are several great and troublesome problems, and it is now known that Mr. Bryce's “riends feared that if he continued in office at this time he would break down his health and probably have to aban- don literary efforts. Among other things, the Panama canal toll question promises to furnish a disagreeable and tisfactory diplomatic task, with le prospect of being brought to a successful conclusion. TO SUCCEED BRYCE. Sir Cecil Arthur Spring-Rice, Now at 8tockholm, Named. 10—The Washington correspondent of the Morning Post says that Mr. Bryce informed Presi- dent Taft that he would retire shortly an_ddevote himself to literature. Sir Cecil Arthur Spring-Rice, now minister at Stockholm, will succeed Mr. Bryce. Cecil Arthur g-Rice was born nd was created K. C. M. G. in 1906. He has served at Stockholm as minister since September 1, 190! In 1886 he acting third secretary at Washington and was appointed act- ting second secretary at Washington to act as secretary to the Bhitish del- egate to the interantional marathon conference, August 27, 1889, After serving for a time at Brussels and Tokio, he was transferred to Washington in 1893. He was charge d'affairs at Teheran i n1900 and min- ister to Persia in 1906-8. London, Nov. COAL OPERATORS HAVE NOT ADVANCED PRICES. Issue Statement Saying They Have No Intention of Doing So. New York, Nov. 10—Because of the uneasiness regarding the supply of anthracite and the fact that some con- sumers are complaining that an ab- normally high price is asked for coal, the committee of operators today is sued a statement in which they say: “The larger mining companies are holding _absolutely to their circular prices. They have not advanced these to the dealers to whom they sell and have no intention of doing so. By | far the greater part of the total an- thracite output is being sold by the original producers at the circular prices.” The statement concludes: “The op- erators are convinced that though this year's production is behind last year's, consumers will not sufferfor want of coal if they will content themselves with moderate purchases for the time an dnot attempt to lay in a large store in advance and thus create an artifi- cial scarcity. —_— NO SPECIAL ELECTION TO FILL UTTER'S PLACE. Governor Pothier Considers Expense Unnecessary Under Circumstances. Providence, Nov. 10—No special election will be called to fill the va- cancy in the Second congressional dis- trict caused by the death of former Governor George H. Utter of Westerly. Governor Pothier has decided,that i asmuch as the election of a congress- man in that district will have no de- clsive effect on party representation in congress, and the present session has not much longer to run, ‘there is no need of putting the stats to the ex- pense of a special election.

McMani- gal when he blew up a “job” at Mt. Vernon, IIl, on April 19, 1910, that he was on the verge of quitting and ex- posing the McNamara dynamite plots five months before the loss of 21 lives at Los Angeles, Cal McManigal, who tomorrow will con- tinue his testimony at the trial of the 45 accused “dynamite plotters,” sald in his written confession, part of which has been made public by District At- torney C. W. Miller, that twice while prowling around at night with bombs under his-arm, he had to employ tact in saving the lives of night watch- men. The Mt. Vernon Explosion. The incidents relative to the Mt. Vernon explosion as given by McMan- igal, are: He went to Mt. Vernon by way of St. Louis, equipped with bonds pro- vided by John J. McNamara, who had instructed him to blow up a new steel structure in Mt. Vernon being erected by non-union men. First, regulating the timepiece 8o the bomb would ex- plode at 1130 p. m, in his room at | a hotel, McManigal placed it where he | considered it would do the most dam- age. Later he discovered the bomb was almost directly beneath the night watchman’s shelter and the watchman was on duty. Anxiety for a Watchman. McManigal walked about on the op- posite side of the street. He observed the watchman seldom left his post and must inevitably be blown up un- less he could be got away. Engaging the watchman In conversation he at- tempted to induce him to go to a theater, but it was of no use. The watchman regarded the invitation with suspicion. In desperation, the dyna- miter returned to the hotel, prepared a smaller bomb, timed it to explode at about 1125 o'clock and sneaking through an alley placed the second bomb at a remote part of the job. Small Bomb Attracted Watchman Away. The purpose, McManigal says, was by the premoter bomb, timed to ex- plode about five minutes before the other one, from his shelter so he would be at the wreck of the first explosion out of danger when the second occurred. During the interval McManigal paced the streets in apprehension Dlans should miscarry. But it had the desired effect and on seeing the watch- man plosions he took a train for St. Louts. Protested Against Killing Watchman. Whils looking in company with J. B. McNamara for a spot to place a bomb on & job In South Chicago at night on February 24, 1911, McManigal asserts In his confession, he and Mc- Namara decided the only point where the explosion coulq do much damage was where a watchman usually was posted. McNamara, according to M- Manigal, was in favor of disregarding the watchman, saying: “If the watch- man is blown up that will attract more attention.” McManigal says ho pro- tested and finally induced McNamara | to decide on another spot. | Threatened by Those Who Paid Him. | In all of these instances, McManigal asserts, he was tempted to quit dyna- miting, but was cautioned by those who paid him that “they had the goods on him” He probably will be on the stand for a week. SCHOOLS WITH DOORS OPENING OUTWARD Only 60 in New York Properly Com- against holocausts in the crowded schools of New York, the fire preven- tion bureau today ordered improve- | ments made in 587 school buildings, both public and private. In all the school buildings inspected only sixty were found to have complied with ail the safety regulations, some having ig- nored even rudimentary precautions, such as doors opening outward.

Mich, Nov. 10.— Paul Felar, a lumberjack, ran amuck in a hotel.at Trout Lake tonight and, wielding a long knife, seriously cut fi men, two of them perhaps fatally.

ALSO PRAYED FOR HIM| "4 “Not a Man to Be Leved by Con- servative of His Day, but the Sort They Are Likely to Crucify”. Princeton, N. J, Nov. 10.—Woodrow Wilson today heard for the first time a pulpit tribute paid to him as the future executive of the nation. He sat in “his usual pew at the rst Presbyterian church, with Mrs, Wilson and the Misses Jessie and Eleanor Wilson, but under circumstances dif- ferent than the Wilson family ever before attended church, for both prayer and sermon were directed toward the president-elect in terms of national solemnity and responsibility. Prayer for His Protection. Bowed with the rest of his family, Dr. Wilson and _congregation were tensely grave and silent as the Rev. Sylvester W. Beach uttered the first prayer in which God's protection and aid was asked for the future presi- “We besecch Thee, Our Father,” he prayed, “to regard with Thy favor and Thy love Thy servant, the president- elect of the United States. Defend him from all evil and enrich him with all | needed good. Sustain him in the great responsibilities that through the peo- ple Thou hast laid upon him; give him unflinching courage, deep insight, loyal devotion to duty as God shall zive him | to see it and wisdom which cometh down from above.” Pastor a Princeton Graduate. The Rev. Mr. Beach is a Princeton graduate, three classes earller than Governor Wilson, but he has known the Wilson family intimately during Dr. Wilsons'_administration of the university affairs. He preached the funeral sermon over the body of Grover Cleveland. In his sermon to- day the pastor chose the Old Testa- ment character of Habakkuk as one resembling that of the president-elect. Habakkuk as Symbol of Wilson. “His outlook is peculiarly his own,” said the preacher of Habakkuk, “yet symbolizing at the same time _the character of the president-elect. It is | in a new direction that he looks. Other prophets have looked at the people, addressed the people, have been mes- of God to the nation. This prophet only looks to the people that he may more intensely and inquiring! look towards Ged. His utterance is in the form of reverence but of chal- lenge. “Obviously this {8 not a man who by any chance can be overlooked. He is not a man likely to be loved by the | very conservative of his day. He is the sort of man they are lfkely to .crucify. He is a prophet whom God inspires to bring a message all his own. | He is steadied by a sense of personal | responsibility and only from the stand- ing ground of his own faithfulness does he feel that he has the right to ask and expect light” No Callers During His Vacation.
