Canton, Ohio, Deeply Moved by the | Sensational Assassination of the President’s Brother- in-Law. CANTON, Ohlo, Oct. 8.—The city 18 intensely moved by the shocking trag- edy that so deeply affects the home of its most highly esteemed citizen, the President of the United States. It turns out that Mrs. George had been around the residence of Mrs. Althouse fre- | quently, and when Saxton was about | to enter there last evening he was shot dead on the doorstep. Mrs. George had frequently threat- ened to kill him if he persisted in call- ing on Mrs. Althouse. An interviewer at the City Prison told Mrs. George he was not surprised to find her locked up after what she | had threatened, and added: | “You remember you said you would | | kill Saxton if he did not keep away from the Althouse place?” “Yes, I remember that I told that,” said Mrs. George. And you remember that I told you that if you did you would be hanged?” “Yes' id Mrs. George, “and I re- | member saying that I did not care if I was.” |~ Marshall Barber, President McKin- |ley’s brother-in-law, whose residence |is at the old Saxton homestead, re- ceived a telegram from the President | to-day saying that Mr. and M Mec- | Kinley and Mrs. Barber and hel John Barber, a Cuban and Porto Ric soldier, who has been very ill at Wash- ington, will leave for Canton to-night at 7 o'clock on the Pennsylvania road. | The funeral of Mr. Saxton will be held | you The post-mortem examination shows | two superficial shot wounds; also that a third bullet entered the left breast and a fourth the left side, five inches below the third, passing through the lower abdomen and supposedly causing death. The body was removed to the Barber residence to-day. Several persons allege that Mrs. George had threatened to shoot Saxton. She engaged Mayor Rice and Attorney | James Sterling for counsel to-day. An| affidavit charging murder in the first| degree has been filed against her by | Prosecuting Attorney Pomeren®, in Justice Reigner's court. It is signed by Lawyer J. J. Grant, who was the per- | sonal friend, as well as legal counsel of Saxton. Mrs. George was taken into the Jus- tices’ court for arraignment, but her at- torneys, after reading the affidavit, an- nounced that they were not ready for arraignment, and the proceedings wegre postponed until Mdnday. The prisorer was thereupon remanded to the County Jail. M. C. Barber, the brother-in-law of President McKinley, received a tele- gram from Washington to-night stat- ing that 2 o'clock would best suit the resident and Mrs. McKinley as the for holding the funeral services. Acordingly that hour on Monday af- ternoon has been selected. The ser- vices are to be private for the family and immediate friends, and will occur | at the Barber home. The Washington message also announced that the Presi- dent and party would reach Canton at 10:25 Sunday morning. Mrs. Annie E. George is closely con- fined, 8o far as communication with her friends is concerned, although she is not restricted in her consultations with | her attorneys. She seems to be com- | fortably established, and the officers say that neither her appetite nor her | rest is disturbed by the conditions in | which she is placed. She is cool and | collected, and still maintains silence on every feature connected with the | tragedy. | Officers have been making special ef- forts to find the weapon with which the crime was committed by searching all round the scene of the shooting, the field through which she Is said to have walked last night, and other places she is thought to have been, but to no avail. There is some gossip that Saxton may have been enticed to the Althouse resi- dence by a decoy letter. This is based on the statement of Mrs. Althouse that Saxton knew she was not at home that evening and that she did not expect to be, and that, therefore, he had no rea- son to call. ' The Coroner began taking testimony this afternoon and examined half a dozen or more neighbors who heard the shooting or saw the dead man. The only development of the inquest so far is a statement by Henry Bederman that he saw a woman in black in front of the Althouse home fire several shots at a man. After the first shot she walked away, and then there came from the man a faint call for help. She turned abruptly, walked back and fired several more shots, and then ran away. He could not tell who the woman was. IMPROVEMENTS FOR THE SOLDIERS’ HOME Congress Will Be Asked to Supply New Barracks and Repair the 0Old. LOS ANGELES, Oct. 8—Major W. H.

Soon the Philippine Question Will Be Taken Up by the Two Boards of Peace Commission- ers at Paris. Special Dispatch to The Call. PARIS, Oct. 8.—The United States Peace Commissioners began their usual three-hour session at 10 o’clock this morning. They are understood to have taken Into consideration direct propo- sitions and counter-propositions from the Spaniards. It may be regarded as quite likely that the Spaniards have al- ready outlined their apparent expecta- tions, and that they are beyond the line of possible aequiescence by the Ameri- cans. The latter are now acting along well- considered lines, consistently and with a definite end in view. They have, to some degree, disclosed their expecta- tions and determinations. The Span- lards, however, seem unable or unwill- ing to understand or believe that the Americans may have, at the outset, set farth their requirements, and that they are destined to remain virtually un- changed by finesse or counter-diplo- macy. Therefore it is not unlikely that the Americans, following a course of fair and thorough consideration of all the original and counter proposi- tions, will, to the limit of possibility, accord patient consideration to any thought projected by the Spaniards. While the Philippines have not yet been reached in the deliberations, the question is doubtless relatively not far distant, and at that point is likely to come the full stress of diplomagtic con- | troversy. Referring to the Philippine phase of the negotiations the Gaulois to-day says: “The question was somewhat touched upon though not discussed yes- terday, but there was enough to indi- cate serious difficulties when it does come u; ‘The President Faure, grst session lasted two hours. through the United States Embassador, General Horace Porter, to-day invited the American commission to visit the Longchamps racecourse on Sunday, in order to ness the race for the Prix Municipal The Americans, through the Embassa- dor, thanked the President, but declined his invitation. RARE BIRD CAUGHT BY A TOURIST'S DOG Capture in New Zealand) of a Wild Fowl of a Species Thought to Have Been Extinct. VANCOUVER, Oct. S.—Advices were received from Auckland by the Warrimbo to the effect that a species of a very rare bird has been discovered on one of the southwest coast fiords of New Zea. land. Tt % the mantelli, the takahe of the Maoris, supposed to have been ex- tinct. Until a few weeks ago there wa only three specimens of this bird in the world, and for many years no trace of others had been seen. The specimen just secured will probably be worth its weight in gold and perhaps a good deal more. It was caught by a dog owned by a teunst. Information hitherto unknown has been acquired through the capture of this strange creature. It is a handsome bird of heavy gait, and absolutely unable to use its wings for flying. It is about the size of a goose, and has beautifully col- ored feathers. On the back, wings and tail they are olive green of almost tallic luster, below the short tail feathers are white.

Another re- rkable feature is the beak—a wroat ilateral triangle of hard pink horn, with one angle directed forward, while on ‘he upper side of the base of thz besk is a rudimentary comb. STRANGLED BY A NEGRO. George Randall Arrested for the Murder of Mrs. Voght. DENVER, Oct. 8.—George Randall, a negro, has been arrested on the charge of having murdered Mrs. Julia Voght, who was found dead yesterday in her apart- ments, where she had been strangled to death with a towel. Randall, who fre- quently calied on the woman, made some damaging admissions while under the in- fluence of drink. It is believed he killed the woman because she refused to give him money. A memorandum book found among her effects showed she had fre- quently given him small sums.

WILL LET UNCLE SAM ALONE MERCHANTS INCLINED TO AN- ANNEXATION. Count von Goetzen Praises the Valor and Dash of Americans in wne Santiago Cam- paign. Copyrighted, 1898, by the Associated Press. BERLIN, Oct. 8.—There has been a great change in German public opinion on the subject of the retention of the Philippine Islands by the United States. The feeling toward America generally is much more favorable than a couple | of months ago. The news from the United States that the Government at Washington is seriously contemplating holding the Philippines is commented upon dispassionately in the German | press, and it is significant this week | that two papers of such standing as the Kolnische Zeitung and the Vos- sische Zeitung have published long let- ters from German merchants settled in the Philippine Islands, in which Ameri- can annexation is strongly advocated. | A correspondent of the Vossische Zei- tung even vigorously combats Germany making any attefapt to secure a por- tion of the islands, citing weighty rea- | sons therefor. Another significant fact | this week was a delegation representing German and German-Swiss firms in the Philippine Islands called at the United States embassy to express hopes that America will not relinquish the islands, and, above all, not return them to Spain, which, the delegation claimed, would mean a recurrgnce of the revo- lution and the perpetuation of commer- cial troubles. The delegation also asked if it might go to Paris and lay its views before the United States Peace Commission. The United States Embassador here, Mr. White, advised the delegation not to do E Mr. White does not anticipate Ger- man interference, directly or indirectly, even if the United States insists upon retaining the whole of the archipelago. Privy Councilor Schwartenstein, for- merly of the German Embassy at Washington, declares that Germany does not dream of putting obstacles in America’s way. Mr. White had a long conference on Wednesday last with the German Min- ister of Foreign Affairs, Baron von Buelow. The Imperial Government last winter, goaded by the agrarians, drew up a bill to reguiate the inspection of American meat exports. The bill practically meant the death of the American meat trade, and, luckily, it could not be made ready for production in the Reichstag before that body adjourned. Since then the situation has changed. The charges against American meats have invariably proved to be ground- less, so that the violent press attacks have ceased. The Government, there- fore, has considerably modified the bill, which is now much less stringent, but some of its provisions are still highly prejudicial to canned meats and sau- sages. It is expected that the measure will be Introduced into the Reichstag soon after its convening next month. The entire Right and a majority of the Cen- trists favor the measure, so its pass- age is virtually assured. Mr. White has again taken up the cause of American insurance compa- nies who have been forbidden to do business in Prussia. Count von Goetzen's report of the Cuban war operations is in the hands of the Minister of War, General von Grosgler. It is deemed confidential. The Emperor has carefully read it. Von Goetzen first made a verbal Yeport to the Emperor, who specially inquired as to the morale of the Americans, the dif- ference between the regulars and the volunteers, the commissariat and medi- cal arrangements and the relative cour- age and spirit of the Americans. Since then his Majesty has put many per- sonal questions to the Count. The lat- ter, in the main, reported favorably, dwelling particularly on the dash and valor of the Americans, the superior- ity of the Mauser rifle and the poor generalship displayéd on both sides. The former German military attache at ‘Washington also severely condemned General Toral’s surrender at Santiago. Dr. von Holleben, the German Em- bassador to the United States, stopped with the Emperor yesterday evening and dilated upon the patriotism and war fever of the American people. His | | Majesty repeatedly expressed astonish- ment. Dr. Miguel, the Minister of Finance | and vice president of the Council of Ministers, through his mouthpiece, the Politische Nachrichten, has issued a denial of the newspaper statements to the effect that the recent epidemics of sickness in a number of German regi- ments was due to American meats. He also denied that 150 cases of trichi- nosis at Sandersleben, near Beinberg, were caused by American pork. All the cases, he pointed out, were due to home grown pork. At the Socialists’ annual conference at Stuttgart this week Herr Liebknecht made a speech, in which he declared the Socialist party was the only one capable of freeing the world from an- | archism and war. He further asserted | that Prince Bismarck, “who had more | | D R R L L O O O O O S O S O S O G U O S e power than any one man since Napo. leon, was smashed by the Socialists.” Herr Liebknecht ‘added significantl “And after we have overcome Bismarck there is no opponent we fear.” | The speech of Emperor William | heralding the anti-strikes bill furnished | material for inflammatory speeches. | The proceedings of the Socialist Con- gress brought out clearly the develop- ment of the Socialists into a parlia- mentary party of practical reform. A feature of the congress was the promi- nent part taken by the workmen dele- gates, whose speeches in nearly every case were of a revolutionary character. They scouted compromise or caution. The case of the newly elected Chief Mayor of Berlin, Kirschner, and Magis- trate Kauffmann, whose appointments have not been confirmed by the Em- peror, although the period in which they should have been confirmed has elapsed, promises to become sensa- | tional. The Emperor, whose sanction is necessary, objects to the two person- | ages named, owing to their political | convictions, and the Tageblatt say: ‘A series of conflicts between the crown and the municipality, like the so-called | conflicts seen in the early sixties, seems | inevitable.” i Some 150 persons who served in the United States navy during the recent war with Spain, are now in Germany on leave of absence. They are creating| quite a sensation in the streets. | A semi-official denial has been issued | of the statement that the Emperor ex- | xtalects to postpone his journey to Pales- ne. The Empress of Germany, who is an ardent photographer, will take a com- | plete photographic outfit with her ror} use during her Eastern trip. Knack- fuss, the well known painter, and Salt- zemann, the marine painter, accom- pany the party. The latest item of the | Emperor's programme is a religious | ceremony on the Mount of Olives on | October 30. The imperial party will number 128 persons, the horses and mules will total over 8000 and a thou- sand Turkish troops will escort their Majesties. It is reported here that the North German Lloyd Steamship Company in- tends to extend its East Asiatic service to Mantla. PERRIS BONDS INVALID, | Important Decision Affecting the Im- | migration District. | RIVERSIDE, Oct. 8—Judge Noyes of | the Supreme Court to-day rendered an fm- | portant decision in the case of Hogg vs. | the Ferris Irrigation District. Action was | brought to have the bonds declared in- | valid, and in a decision on the point that | the proper notice of intention to form the | district was not given by the Supervisors | the court says: First—That the notice in question was not sufficient to invest the Board of Su- | pervisors of San Bernardino County with jurisdiction to organize of to conduct any proceedings for organization of the irri- gation district. Secon@—That the decree of confirmation | is ineffectual for the purpose of legalizing such organization, upon grounds that the | district was never organized; that ali pro- | ceedings had for such purpose were | wholly void; that to give efficicncy 10 such decree would be to violate the con- stitutional rights of land-owners of tne said district in the same manner as aid the order of the Board of Supervisors in the first instance in attempting to organ- ize the district. g In view of these conclusions, it is not necessary to pass upon the many other questions presented, and they will, tnere- fore, be dismissed without comment.

NEW YORK, Oct. 8.—Felipe Agoncillo, the representative of Aguinaldo, the lead- er of the Filipinos, sailed to-day for Havre. He is accompanied by his secre- tary, Sixto Lopez.
