BERNE, Switzerland, April 10.—Diplo- matic relations between Switzerland and Italy have been ruptured. This action arises from the refusal of Switzerland to give satisfaction regarding an article pub- blished in Geneva, insulting the memory of the murdered King Humbert. The Bundesrath has sent the following communication to Par}iament: Regrettable misunderstandings = have oc- curred between us_and Signor Silvestrelll, the Italian Minister., We have felt constrained to request the Italian ‘Government, in the inter- ests. of the good relations of the two countries, to recall Signor Silvestrelli. The Itallan Gov- ernment, having refused to do so, we broke off relations with Signor Silvestrelli, where- upon the Italian Government, on its part, has broken off relations with our Minister at Rome. We shall publish the documents relating to this conflict. The article which led to the references appeared in.an anarchistic sheet, pub- lished in Geneva. Signor Silvestrelli de- manded that the authorities prosecute the paper, but the Swiss Government replied it could not act without a complaint being formally lodged by the Itallan Govern- ment. Italy declined to adopt this course and the correspondence following finally led to the rupture of diplomatic relations. Kern City May Be Enlarged. BAKERSFIELD, April 10.—The Trus- tees of Kern City have called an election for May 26 to determine whether the boundaries of the city shall be extended to include the Bernard Addition. This sec- tion is only a short distance removed from the center of Kern, but for some reason in defining the boundaries of the town it was omitted. It has since been bullt up compactly end many of the most handsome residences are in this addition. Aged Woman Commits Suicide. TACOMA, April 10.—Miss Minerva Mor- rison, 70 years of age, committed suicide this morning by hanging herself to a bed- post with a handkerchief while the family was at breakfast.

SAN JUAN, Porto Rico, April 10.—The Supreme Court of Porto Rico Yyesterday heard the appeal of Santiago Iglesias, president of the Federation of Workmen of Porto Rico, who was sentenced Decem- ber 12 last to three years, four months and eight days’ imprisonment on the charge of conspiring to raise the price of labor in Porto Rico. Decision was reserved un- til Saturday. - He will undoubtedly be ac- quitted. Counsel for Iglesias dwelt upon the constitutional right of the people to assemble peaceably. The public prose- cutor, to the surprise of the throng in the courtroom, sustained and strength- ened the argument of the defense. He said the appeal was well taken, put in no evidence for the prosecution and prac- tically asked the. court, to dismiss the case. Attorney General Harlan yesterday, be- fore the trial, sent a long letter to the public prosecutor, expressing his views. He sald: I understand the court attached criminal re- sponsibility to mere participation, In connection with subsequent acts of violence In a meeting at which nothing was done further than to re- solve to make a demand for higher wages. The records only show, In explanation of the sen- tence of three years, four months and eight days, that Iglesias is, or that he was, the founder of a society judged illegal. The judgment of the District Court has the character, In its effective result, of the abridg- ment of personal liberty.. The right to assem- ble peacefully to better the soclal condition is surely fundamental. If any Spanish law in Porto Rico impairs this right it has become a nullity with the change of sovereignty, in my judgment. Famous House to Be Removed. SAUSALITO, April 10.—The Schultz residence on Bulkley avenue has been shorn of its historic cupola and the bufld- ing will be removed. The old cottage was built twenty years ago—when Schultz was the leader of the old California Theater. Such noted actors as McCullough, Bar. rett, Edwards and others were accus- tomed to spend their Sundays at the house while filling engagements in San |. Francisco. POLIGE ARREST MUIG TEAGHER Suspect Him of Being the Brutal Murderer of Miss Jennett. Blood Stained Haktchet and Towel Are Found in Home of Prisoner. DETROIT, April 10.—What the police consider to be a strong link in the chain of circumstantial evidence that they are ‘weaving about Professor Joseph M. Miller, aged 47, a music teacher and a married man with a family, who is under arrest on suspicion of murdering Miss Carrie M. Jennett on Thirteenth street, just before gfldnlght last night, was discovered to- ay. A blood-stained hatchet was found in the drawer of a table in Miller's kitchen. Professor Miller was the girl's music teacher and. had paid her such marked attentions that her father had asked him to keep away from the house. When Mil- ler was examined at police station this morning what are believed to be blood stains were found on his shirt sleeves, his trousers, shoes, hat and overcoat. A towel was discovered in his kitchen with what are supposed to be blood stains on it. ‘When he was asked for an explanation for the stains on his clothing he gave none. Miller left his house last evening to at- tend a lodge and returned about 11:20 o'clock apparently cool and undisturbed. He alleges that he did not leave the meet- ing until 11 o’clock, but several persons say he left between 10 and 10:20 o’clock. The murder was committed at five min- utes after 11 o’clock, as near as the police can learn. It would have been possible for Miller to go from the hall to the scene of the crime in twenty minptes. From the location of the crime to Miller’s home is but a comparatively short walk. The police admit to-night that they have not reached a solution of the murder of George H. Heywood, head bookkeeper of the Michigan Malleable Iron Works, whose battered and lifeless body was found at daylight this morning within a hundred feet of his home on Amherst street. Willlam Jones, a plumber, who roomed in Heywood's home, and who was arrested on suspicion this morning, was still in custody to-night, although a ‘“‘sweat-box’’ examination lasting all day and this evening falled to bring from him &ny damaging admissions. Heywood’s murderer first shot him and then crushed in his forehead with some heavy instrument. The bullet entered be- Eind the right ear and itself would have caused death. The murderer apparently then stooped over his victim and dealt him an awful blow on &he forehead. RUSSIA IS NOT READY TO OUTLINE HER POLICY Minister of Foreign Astairs Says the Tariff Question Is Receiving Due Consideration. ST. PETERSBURG, April 10.—Prior to his departure from this city for Lau- sanne, Switzerland, April 8, preliminary to his leaving for the United States, Charle- magne Tower, the United States Embas- sador to Russia, invited the attention of Count Lamsdorf, Forelgn Minister, to the dormant sugar and tariff controversy be- tween Russia and the United States, making_ special inquirfes as to the effect of the Brussels convention on the future sugar policy of Russia. At his farewell call Count Lamsdorf informed the Embas- sador that the Government was consid- ering the sugar question, but had not yet decided to change the present regulations.

M. de Witte 1s reported to have said that he would not permit Americans to trade in Russia unless they showed a disposi- tion to loan money or invest funds in Russia, since Russia has nothing to ex- port to the United States. e Fugitive From Justice Is Caugh®.
