While practically all of the b per cent. bonds will be redeemed, doubt is expressed that Secretary Shaw will re- celve for refunding the $20, 00,000 3's and 4's which he has offered to exchange Into 2 per cents. It is recalled that there was lttle interest in the recent ~refuniing operations toward the eclose, in July last, and that the country was well scoured by bond houses at the time to procure bonds for refunding. Map Covers Three Acves, W. J. Spillman, of thé Agricultural de- partment, has returned to Washington from 8t. Louls, where he has been at work on the exhibit of the Agricultural de- partment at the World's Fair. An im- mense map of the United States Is now belng constructed on the exposition grounds under Mr. Spillman's directon. This map will be one of the most striking | features of the government exhibit. It will cover three acres, and will probably be the largest map that has ever been made. The boundaries of the states and territories will be marked by gravelied paths three feet wide, and the Mississippi and Missourl river will for most of their course be represented by paths five feet wide. The Atlantic and Pacific and the Gult of Mexico are in place and made of sand that at a distance and in photo- graphy closely resemble water. In the space representing each state and terri- tory will- be raised small areas of the staple crops produced in each respective state and territory. Large placards will explain to spectators the kinds, amounts nnd values of each crop. For instance the State of Illinofls will occupy a space thirty- five foet wide and ninety feet long, and in this area will be raised corn, wheat, oats and similar cereals to fllustrate the enor- mous output of each that the state pro- duced according to the twelfth census, The space allowed Delaware and Rhode Island, pecullar as it may seem, although only five or six feet long, is ample to il- lustrate the agricultural productions of theso states. Around the border of this huge typographical map will appear the various plots allotted to the various bu- reaus and divisions of the Agricultural department. Great interest Is shown in the enterprise, and it will from present indications prove a great success. Politicfans in Washington are discuszing with interest the candidacy of Isadore Ray- ner attorney general of Masyland, for the seat in the senate now held by Mr. Mc Comas. It has been understood that Goy- | ernor Smith, Senator Gorman's candidate, would have no opponent in the event the democrats control the next legislature, and there was much surprise when Mr. Rayner a few days ugo announced that he had de- clded to become a candidate. Mr. Rayner s well known in Washington, as he repre- sented & Baltimore district In' the house for several terms. He also came into pr m- | inence as the clilef counsel for Admiral Schley In the court of Inquiry proceedings | two years ago. While there is no enmily | between Senator Gorman and Mr. Rayner, the latter has not been so closely allled to | Senator Gorman as has Governor Smith. Mr. Rayner declares that there s no per- sonal feelings In the contést so far as he is concerned, and this may be taken as true, especially in view of the fact that he 45 & member of the Smith administration. On an issue of pertonal popularity M:. Ray- ner would probably win over Governor Smith, as the latter has wade miny ene- mies sinco he became governor. Both men are millionaires, and the fact that each is anxious for the senatorship would seem to increase the chances which th: democrats already have of controlling the legislature. It Is Intimated that Mr. Rayner's candidacy will have the support of the more Sun, ‘which exerclfey a strong influence over the voters of Maryland.

This even. ing It appears certain that Mrs. Ros ow wiil die, while Rossow, though dangerous- ly wounded may recover. Rossow, who had been separated from his wito for some time, lay in wait for her at A livery barn opposite the church where the tragady occurred. Finally he saw hiy wife with her mother, Mrs. Wales, ap- proach and enter the church. He rushed aoross the street and at the door of the . edifice shot his wife thrée times, every bullet entering the back and passing com. plately through the woman's body. At the door he paused, and placing the revolver to his loft side, fired at his own heart. The bullet defiected slightly and entered his side just below the heart. Rossow was arrested and later taken to a hospital. Domestic trouble was the cause of the shooting. Rossow was 34, and his wife 32 years old. They have been mar- vied three years.

The four bullets fired into (he body of Cora Crissiwell, or Glenn: as she is better known in Omaha, by James J. Reed, Saturday night, accomplished their purpose at 8 o'elotk last hight” The woman died at Clarkson hospital at’that hour. The body was taken {n charge by Coroner Bralley, who will hold the inquest some tire. this afterpoon. “Is she dead, captain?’ Those were the first words which greeted Captain Mostyn when James J. Reefl walked into his office at 10:30 o'clock last night to be informed of the death of the woman he had shot. When he was told that she had expired at 8 o'clock the prisoner threw back his head, clasped his hands together and pronounced the one word “murderer.” He sat per- haps a pgnute as if in meditation, when he turned to the captain and sald: “I want no expense, no expense to the state, only hanging.” The next question was: “You will take me to court, won't you?" He was told that he could not be brought before the court last night, but would have to wait |} until this morning, when he would be ar- ralgned. The man's history of his own case, as related last night, is as follows: passing along the street one when 1 chanced to look up and see the woman sitiing at the window in her parlor. 1 was thunderstruck. She tas the perfect picture of my dead wife, Jennie. I don't know what miade me walk Into the place, but when she motioned to me it seemed I could mot mesist. After the first visit I saw I was dost.

Why, 1 watched the door and there were dozens of them went in and out, and I met them in the place when 1-went there, But I wanted to know if there was any one man, and when I pressed her so earnestly to marry me, which I did eonstantly, that was the only thought whioh would come to me, that she thought more of some other man than she did of me. 1 wanted her to marfy mie and we would go and rent a small cottage In the suburbs, in some quiet little place, where ws could live happily, and I piletured to myself how that would be. At last I found out there was another man, or maybe 1 only thought s0, Made Him Mad. “First 1 suspected her, that was about two months ago. She bought a revolver, and I thought she intended to kil] me. On two or three différent occasions she went through my clothes trying to find money.

She was with some othet men, | walted and walted. It scemed to bme llke hours. and hours, Finally she came.. The first thing she daid was to search my pockets.

BELIEVES THEM IN LEAGUE WITH ENGLAND Asserts That $10,000 Raised for Irish Brigade in the Boer War Never Reached That Body of Men. Washington hall was filled, though not crowded, last night to hear Colonel J. Y. F. Blake, commander of the Irish brigade in the Boer war. Though the majority of the men and women In the audience were of Irish birth or descent, there were also a number of Duteh or Dutch descent, as well as many not related by tles of blood to either natlonality, Former Governor Boyd, James P. Etigiish, W. 8. Shoemaker and Father McDonald occupled seats «n the stage, and a front row was filled with members of the Colonel Blake Ladles' club, who presented the guest of the evening with & large bunch of reses. T. J. Mahoney, president of ‘the local branch of the United Irish league, pro- sided as chalrman, and told, in calling the meeting to order, of the never ending strug- gle, now in one form and now in another. which has been going on since the begin- ning of time between right and might. One of the most cruel and indefensible acts of England in its oppression of Ire- land, he declared, was the effort to stamp out of existence the Irish language, and #0 successful had it been that many other- wise well-informed people did not reallze that there was and is an Irish tongue. C. M. O'Donovan was the first speaker, and spoke for about ten minutes in Gaellc, or Irish, whick was understood, in whole or in part, by a number of those present. John P. Button of Lincoln denounced the Clan-na-Gael in decidedly vigorous language. It did not represent, he declared, the Irish people or the Irish cause; no secret organization such as it could repre- sent the voice of a nation. It was for the ledders of the Irish party and the Irish people sired and what was best for them, and the majority #hould be cllowed to rule. A set of resolutions introduced by Mr. Sutton were adopted by a unanimous 1ls- ing vote. They referred in words of pralse to Robert Emmet; commended the work of the United Irish Jeague; congratulated the Irlsh parllamentary party and the league on the passage of the land reform bill; de- | clared that only an independent Irish re- public would satisty the aspirations of the Irish people; denounced dissensions among the Irish: denounced the imprisonment of Colonel Arthur Lynch; expressed sympathy with the South African republic and Orange Pree State In the loss of their independ- ence, and appreclation of the conduct of Colonel Blake in the Boer war. Colonel Blake was welcomed to the state of Nebraska by Mr. Sutton and was then introduced by Chairman Mahoney as “a Missourfan by birth, s Texan by adoption, a soldier of the United States army by education and training, a citizen of the world and a champion of liberty.” Denounces Some Irishmen. Colonel Bluke was given an enthusiastic reception and his remarks were frequently interrupted with applause. After speak- ing of Robert Emmet as an Inspiration to lovers of liberty the world over and es one whose name and fame would be fres and green to the end of time, Colonel Blake sald there were some Irishmen today who had lost all trace 6f Emmet's blood and spirit, who were tn fact tainted with Eng- lish blood. He said in substance: A# you know 1 cauve fecently from South Africa and had been. working and doin some speaking in the, east when 1 recelve: «n invitation " from Jeremiah ~Howard, whom 1 Gid not know. but whom 1 found 1o be a true Irishman, to was told on y arri of a certaln sostety b me out of business," (h; prevent the securirg of could speak. I knew of this soclely before; It Is not my firat experlence with it, ‘and 1 want to tell you something_about it. On our arrlval in New York, my Irish boys and myself, we heard that the Clan- na-Gael had sent us $10.00. For the rank and file of the Clan-na-Gael I have respeet, for T belleve they are sincere and honest, but for thelr leaders. for John Devoy of New York, John Keating of Chic O'Nefll Ryan ‘of 8t.

In An open letter to John Devoy I asked him it this charge was not true and he has never answered the letter. As for the 10, 000 it was neyer recelved because it was never sent. When they announced that they had sent it to us they never expected us to get back alive, but we did and now there must be an accounting for that $10,- . It was an impossibility for us to re- celve it and they never intended to send it. John Devoy s threatened to “put they had iried to a hall in which [ o nd the others stole it or Inten #teal it, but if T meet him face to will do so. But one cannot meet him fare to face for he cannot look & man in the eve, he looks at his feet all the time and when a man does that there is something wrong with him. t at Chambe: | When Joe Chamberlain, rascal in England, visiting this country war he told Parliament th nothing to fear from ow could ment if he ha from the leaders of the soclety in which the fighting Irishmen of this country are enrolled, and to whose orders on ac- count_of thelr oath, théy have been true. ‘The Clan-na-Gael has now Issued another circular, dated September 1, from head- quartors In New York.

DISTRICT COURT AT CENTER Verdiot of Not Gullty Reached in Case CENTER, Neb., Sept. 21.—(Special)— The district court for this district, con- vened here on Monday last, with Judge J. F. Boyd, of Neligh, on the bench, S eral Important cases were on the docke! including the case of the murder of Wil- Mam G. Merritt, at Niobrars, on July %, 1%8. *An adjourned term will be held in November, and [ that reason nothing but jury work is being done at the pies- ent time. The first case to come up was that of Pravacek agalnst Leach, ip which plaintift sued lo recover the price of a cargo of merchandise which was alleged to have been burned up on the steamer South Da- kota last year. Defendant contends that it bas not been shown that the goo's had been shipped on the boat and (hit the sale of the claima to plaintiflf was not a bona-fide transaction. Plaintifl withdrew a Juwrer and had the case continued over the in Ireland to say what they de-’ ' mings’ two bloodhounds lived in | term. 1t fe understood that it will be set- tled out of court The State of Nebraska against Isaac Me- Coun, for murder in the first degree was heard. On the night of Sunday, July 23, 198 Willlam G. Merritt was accosted by some person upon entering his premises in Niobrara and was shot through the heart, killlng him instantly. The de- fendant was known to have threatened the lfe of the deceased at different times and to have left the same place in town at about the same time the deceased started tor home. The sherift arrived on the scene of the murder about seven hours after the act and searched for tracks of the mur- derer. Tracks of a pecullar nature were found at different places, where a man had been seen about the time of tie tragedy. He further wore a pair of shoes which made tracks which were similar to those made by the man who followed the deceased home the night before. He had recelved a revolver from his partner in business about four days before the erime and had made the threat that he would “fix’"" Merritt before the sun set four times, The revolver was a thirty-two caliber, and the bullet found in the dead man was the same. The revolver could not be found and defence claimed it had been sold to a stranger going through the country. One of the members of the mur- dered man's family heard him exclalm just as the shots were fired: “Is that you Ike, what are you doing here?” This was ti state's side of the case. The defenss proved by the defendant and his partner that they heard the shots fired a mile and a half from the scene of the murder. The alibl was accepted by the jury, and after belng out two hours, returned a verdiet of not guilty. BISHOP TALKS ON PROVIDENCE Large Audience A mont to embi at Fre- isten to President of Conference. FREMONT, Neb., Sept. 2i.—(Special)— Bishop Andrews occupled the pulpit of the Methodist Episcopal church this morning. Long before the time for the rervice the building was crowded, every availablo foot of space being taken. The subject of his sermon was the doctrine of a universal and particular Providence of God. He epoke without notes, and for over an hour held the close attention of the large audience. He sald In part: “All men who belleve in a God also be- lieve in a government by God, a govern- ment whose object Is the development of the human lifc and its training for a higher life. The scriptures say that Gd 13 fn command in every event, however small His Providence a particular and universal Providence. All are under His eye and government. His particular ¥rovidence concerns both the good and evil. The g0od He Inspires, assists, makes vietorious and rewards. He has also to do with sin, but not as with the good. Sin doos not consist n any particular external aet, hut in the motive state of mind that stands back of it and is its underlying caure. A bellef in a universal Providence necessarily includes a bellef in a particulac provi- dence. A man's MNfe” sald the bishop, “may turn on a small hinge, The doc- trine of a particular Providence controlling what man may think are small things, is in strict accord with the reign of law and sclentific development, for the true sclen- tific man is the student of God's works, the theologla of His word: Although his subject was of an abstruss and metaphysical nature, it was so re- plete with lilustration and metaphorand so eloquently deivered as to hold the close attentfon of those who were cbliged to stand, At the meeting of the conference late yesterdgy. afternoon considerable routine business was transacted and resolutions adopted extending thanks to B drews for his courtesy as a pres cer, and congratulating him on the vigor of mind and hody which he has still re- tained. and ulso extending thanks to the Fremont church and its pastor, Dr. Sanderson. A resolution of sympathy to the families of Oscar Glidden, J. A. Van. Anda and L. H. Rogers, prom!nent laymen of the conference and city who have dled during the last year, was adopted.
