But so quiet was the affair kept that not until it was publicly announced 2 short time ago did a lot of titled in the running for some months. FAVORED BY FORTUNE. No family in the peerage has been more favored by fortune than the Butes. “He flourishes in an honor- able ancestry,” is the proud motto of the house, but its vast posseseions were not, as might be inferred from public service or even paid for by hard earned cash. They are due chiefly tc the fact that the founder of the family was the illegitimate son of a King, Robert IL of Scotland. The Welsh property, with its coal fields more valuable far than gold mines, | was acquired by marriage. The fore- | shores of Cardiff, .which with their huge docks are the source of so much wealth, were bought from the corpo- | ration for an annual dinner which is no longer given. Things have just| come the way of these lucky folk and | they have taken them. Now every hour of the twenty-four, whether he| be sleeping or waking, working or playing, brings the young Marquis in| something like $140. His affairs are managed by able hands and he has no need to bother! his head about them. Ailthough an excellent linguist, speaking several languages, including Russian, fluently, he is not a man of marked ianIIe&'-‘ tual tastes. He has mingled little in society and, guarded carefully by his mother when at home, few girls have had anything like a fair chance to catch him. Travel, sport and natural history are the things that he cares for most. At present he is somewhere in Africa hunting and exploring. He has done some notable things in the way of big game shooting and in this respect he differs curiously from his father, the late Marquis, who never fired a gun in his life, and though a splendid business man on _occasion was probably more devoted to his library than anything else. It is a singular instance of the tricks played by heredity that the young man who has inherited this priceless collection cares nothing for it. He should have been a bibliophile, | vet long before he had done with his teens, indeed from quite early boy- hood, he became a naturalist and by a bird of the air nor a beast of the field nor a plant with whose habits he was not familiar. The outdoor life to which he is de- voted insures him superb health and he probably gets more delight out of nature than his father ever found in books. For the rest he has the clear head and keen judgment of the Scotch- man to guide him safely through life. Though it is from his Welsh estates that the bulk of his income comes, Scotland has by a long way first place in his affections. He always wears kilts when there, insists on his at- cos- tume and keeps a piper, who wakes the household at daybreak with the skirl of the bagpipes. The date of the wedding has not yet been fixed. It goes - ‘thout saying that it will be a grand one, but it will scarcely attract the attention that was bestowed on the marriage of Lord Bute's father, the “Lothair” of Dis- raeli's romance, whose “going over to Rome” while he was at Oxford had caused a prodigious sensation. Lon- don papers devoted whole pages to the acconunt of the ceremony and the West- ern Mail, published in Cardiff, whooped it up to the extent of thirty columns. And—irony of ironies—Disraeii, who | had satirized the whole crowd, was one of thc five witnesses who signed the register. Among the splendid jewels which the Marquis of those days lav- ighed on his bride was a magnificent diamond tiara with a design in Hebrew | signifying that “A virtuous woman is a crown to her husband.” Right worthy has she proved herself of it and it is understood it will be one of her wedding gifts to the Irish girl she has chosen for her son's wife. e ADOPT RESOLUTIONS GOF RESPECT.— Oakiand, March 30.—The Alameda County | teachers, at the closing session of the insti- tute yesterday. adopted a resolution of ressct to the memory of the late Fred M.

Morgan Smith and wife were arrested in this eity to-day on a charge of conspiracy | to murder. The arrest was made on a telegraphic request of District Attor- ney Jerome of New York. “‘Nan” Pat- tersen, the actress who was twice put on trial for the murder of Caesar Young in New York on May 4, 1904, is charged with consupiracy in the same | connection, new indictments to this ef- fect having been found in New York to-day. Smith and his wife left New York a few months after the murder and before the beginning: of the mistrial, a long time the authorities were unable to locate them. Smith's testimony and his identity are consid- ered almost vital to the case against Miss Patterson. Several weeks a New York detective met Smith in arrests here to-day this officer the arrest. He followed the couple, part of the time as traveling compan- | ion, over half the continent, having made friends with Smith. Smith found | out that he was a detective, but be- liecved that he was after another man. Detroit, Cleveiand and a number of Canadian cities were visited. Finally | Smith went to Nashville and Louis- ville in the hope of securing a position | with seme of the bookmakers in those cities, leaving his wife in Cleveland. | He was unsuccessful, and came to Cin- cinrnati, where his wife met him on Wednesday. DENIED BY RELATIVES. Mrs. Smith said she had relatives in Covington, Ky., and she went with her husband to that city yesterday to call on ‘these people, who, however, refused to see the visitors and afterward de- clared that there was no relationship between them. Returning to this city, Smith registered at the Grand Hotel as H. H. Banning and wife. The detective had kept in tele- graphic cemmunication with New York and had deferred the arrest until it was possible to arrest both, their sep- aration soon after reaching the United States on returning from Canada hav- ing caused the delay. The arrest was quietly made. Smith 2nd his wife were taken to police head- quarters, where they made no attempt to deny or conceal their identity, al- though both denied any guilt in con- nection with the case. They showed gigns of nervousness and worry, but both declared they would return to New York without requisition papers, as they had expected to do, although they had not anticipated going under arrest. The detective who' has been follow- irg Smith says that he went under many aliases in different cities before registering here as H. H. Banning. At Hamilton, Ont., he called himself Bush, at Montreal he was known as Adams, at Detroit it was Collins and in Cleve- land Robinson. THREATENED YOUNG. NEW YORK, March 30.—The Grand Jury in this city to-day returned in- dictments against J. Morgan Smith, Julia Smith (his wife) and ‘“Nan” Patterson, charging them jointly with conspiracy. The indictments are based on a letter alleged to have been written by Julia Smith to Caesar Young in which, it is alleged, was a threat and a demand for money for the Patterson girl. The action by the Grand Jury fol- lowed a hearing at the Criminal Court’s bullding, at which several wit- nesses, including the widow of Caesar Young and Mrs. Young's brother-in- Jaw, William Luce, were examined by Assistant District' Attorney Rand, who conducted the. recent trial of “Nan” Patterson, charged with Caesar Young’s murder, which resulted in a disagreement by the jury. The arrest of Smith and his wife at Cincinnati, according to the local au- thorities, will have an important bear- ing upon thé new trial of the Patter- son girl on the charge of murder, set for April 10. At a previous trial an at- tempt was made to prove that the re- volver with whlch\Youu was shet was ago | FEDERAL JURY | MAKES THREATS Interference With the Wit- nesses in Beef Trust In- quiry Causes an TUproar INDICTMENTS PROMISED —_—— Attorney General Declares Drastic Action Will Be| Taken Against Offenders CHICAGO, March 30.—Conspiracy in- dictments are threatened against the heads of big meat-packing concerns un- less alleged tampering with witnesses who have been summoned to testify before the Federal Grand Jury is dis- | continued at once. With two witnesses ton the stand to-day who, it is assert- | ed, admitted that they had beén ap- | proached with a suggestion that their testimony be mild, the jury, it is de- | clared, is getting ready to take drastic | action. “We will shut off interference with witnesses,” said Assistant Attorney General Pagin to-night, “even if we have to resort to proceedings under the conspiracy statute to do so.” Be- | lief was general to-night that Pagin has already laid out plans of new in- dictments. Fifteen witnesses were heard to- day, three women being among those who testified. The women are said to | be stenographers employed by the Na- tional Packing Company. The fifteen secret service men who { have been frequenting the corridors in | the building where the Grand Jury is in session were not to be seen to-day. Dis- | trict Attorney Morrison was said to | have ordered that waiting witnesses, | instead of spending their time in the l\'icinny of the jury-room, are to be concealed in downtown _hotels until | called befcre the jury. In this way the witnesses will be more readily pre- vented from learning the identity of the secret service men Wwatching for possible irregularities. —_———— STUDENTS’ CONFERENCE TO BE HELD AT CAPITOLA | SANTA CRUZ March 30.—The sev- enth annual Pacific Coast Students’ Conference of the Y. W. C. A, to be held at Capitola, promises to be the largest in the history of the organi- zation.

One of the latter, named Ivan- ovskaia, an anarchist, has been vainly sought by the police since the assas- sination of Emperor Alexander II, and the other is a beautiful girl named Leonteeva, belonging to a prominent official family. It is said that these three anarchists and the man arrested in Great Mor- skaia street on Thursday had been watching the movements of Governor General Trepoff, Grand Duke Vladi- mir and Minister of the Interior Bouli- gan. ST. PETERSBURG, March 30.—In order to allay the agitation and dis- content_over the delay in the work of the Bouligan Commission, which is charged with formulating the reforms authorized in the imperial rescript of March 3, it is said that Emperor Nich- olas has decided to issue a reseript to Intericr Minister Bouligan on April 8, in which he will urge the necessity for expedition and fix an absolute date for convening the Assembly, whose election will be provided for by the commis- sion. T A long official statement has been issued, explaining that the delay in the work of the commission has been due to a great extent to the variety of in- terests concerned and announcing that the Minister of the Interior has pro- posed and the Emperor approved of a plan whereby preparations for calling a representative Assembly will be com- pleted in two or three months. A man dressed as a porter fired three shots at a secret police agent in Great Morskaia street this afternoon. All the shots missed their mark. The as- sailant was arrested.

POST BUILDING, WASHINGTON, March 30.—The an- nouncement has been made in diplo- matic circles that the Spanish Embas- sador, Emilio de Ojeda, is soon to leave | for Madrid to assume the duties of Sec- retary of Foreign Affairs. an appoint- ment that has just been conferred upon him. Embassador de Ojeda came to ‘Washington about two years ago, and during his residence here he has made himself extremely popular. Upon him devolved many of the responsibilities attending the settlement of the affairs growing out of the war between this country and Spaif, and in these duties he displayed an experience gained in many years of service in the Spanish | diplomatic corps in various countries of the globe. As former Minister to Turkey, where Spain is always in trouble with the Sultan over her fishery concessions, Emilio de Ojeda showed great tact, and | this fact, together with his splendid services in this country, are believed to have been responsible for his selec- tion for his new and higher position in Madrid. —_——————— COLORADO LEGISLATURE I LENDS AID TO RAILROAD | Passes Bill Enabling One Line to Ab- sorb Other Roads in the State. DENVER, March 30.—The Legisla- ture has passed the bill introduced | for the purpose of enabling the Colo- rado and Southern Railway to absorb other roads in Couorado and adjoining States. “This legislation,” said James M.

H MAY REFISE RIGERY' GIFT Now to the Fore With a “Tainted Money” Problem CHURCH IS DIVIDED Controversy Arises Over 0il Magnate’s Offer of $1000 for Building Fund Special Dispatch to The Cail. NEW BEDFORD, Mass., March 30— Methodists are now beginning to fight shy of “tainted money” coming from Standard Oil magnates, and the ques- tion of accepting a $1000 gift from Henry H. Rogers of the Standard Oil and Amalgamated Copper companies is now agitating the Methodist congre- gation of Acushnet. Its edifice was recently burned and Rogers has offered $1000 toward rebuilding it. The mem- bers of the church are divided over the question of accepting the gift and are in the midst of a heated discussion over the propriety ot accepting any Standard Oil funds, owing to the agi- tation among Congregationalists over the Rockefeller gift. BOSTON, March 30.—Despite the fact that the prudential committee of the American board of commissioners for foreign missions has practically de- cided to accept the gift of $100,000 from John D. Rockefeller to further the wark of the board, a committee repre- senting the Congregational clergymen of Boston and vicinity, whe are op- posed to the acceptance of the gift, to-day decided to continue the protest. It was agreed by the members of the committee that a wide expression of opinion on the question was desirable, and for this purpose a committee was appointed to submit the facts and doc- uments to the Congregational clergy- man of the country. The prudential committee will not take final action on the acceptance of Rockefeller’s gift for two weeks, and it is the intention of the protesting com- mittee to learn, if possible, the general feeling among clergymen. ———— WELLS ASSETS “GET-RICH-QUICK” FIRM DRAFT oF Recelver Gets $8000 Mailed From Company’s Liverneol Branch Be- fore Concern Was Stopped.
