NEW YORK, July 27.—Questioned by Inspector Cross concerning his career, Frederick E.

ABOVE IS SHOWN THE PICTURB S - 3 explanation for knowing so much about the disease. It was the purpose of Inspector Cross to find out whether Carlton had ever cultured tetanus germs and what he knew about the germs in general. The prisoner said he had tetanus as a result of ar injury to his hand resulting from the explcsion of a cartridge which he was trying to hammer into a revolver. The only statement Carlton made con- cerning his early life was that he had been educated in a high school and that he spent two years in a preparatory school fitting for college. Beginning with 1891, which was, he said, the date of his honorable discharge from the army, he had lived in New York City.

HOCH TO DIE TO-DAY. | CHICAGO, July 27.—“Bluebeard” Hoch will be hanged to-morrow for wife 1murder. His appeal to the State Board of Pardons this afternoon was without avail. The Governor had pre- | viously declined to interfere. Late to-night Hoch consented to an interview and throughout the conversa- tion he stoutly Insisted that he was an innocent man. When asked if he had any confession to make or whether he would reveal his identity before he died, Hoch replied: “As to confessing anything I have nothing to confess except bigamy and | that I have already confessed. My iden- tity T will not reveal. I will keep that secret like a man, and it will go to the grave with me. —_———— AMERICA WILL ENTERTAIN LPU’IS OF BATTENBERG Prince in the English Navy Will Bring Squadron to This Country in Oetober.

As it has been several years since a British fleet appeared in the Bal- tic Sea, the announcement is connected in the public mind with Emperor Wil- liam's recent tour and the visit of a German squadron to Scandinavian wa- ters. The cruise of the British fleet is re- garded as designed to counteract the pre- ponderance of German influence in Scan- dinavian politics. The Admiralty, however, discourages the idea of politics having any bearing on | the cruise and says that the Baltic is an | open sea and that the fleet is simply going there to execute maneuvers, a ceremonious visit not being contemplated. | CHRISTIANIA, Norway, July 27.—The | Norweglan Government to-day proposed to the Storthing the holding of a ref- erendum on the dissolution of the union with Sweden. The proposal was referred to a special committee. The vote will probably be taken on August 13. STOCKHOLM, Sweden, July 27.—Both houses of the Swedish Parliament to- day approved the report of the special committee appointed by Parllament to deal with the crisis between Sweden and | Norway. In the first chamber the re- | port was adopted without debate. | In the second chamber the recommenda- | tion in the report regarding negotiations | for a dissolution was adopted unani- | mously, but there was some objection to | the proposed loan of $25,000,000 to meet the new conditions. About a score of mem- | bers voted against the loan, the Social- Democratic leader, Branting, pointing out the danger of militarism and declaring that the proposed loan was contrary to the political spirit of the recommenda- tion to negotiate. It was a dangerous precedent, he sald, for Sweden never heretofore had borrowed money for mili- tary purposes and he feared Norway would regard it as being in the natute of a threat of war. This view was contested by other speakers, who pointed out that the Riks- dag, by its unanimous approval of the conditions of dissolution, had voiced its willingness to dissolve the union and its desire for peace both in the present and in the future. ————— GERMANY ENTERS DENIAL. | | | weglan Throne. | BERLIN, July 27.—The German For- eign Office denies utterly the report published by the correspondent of a London paper at Stockholm to the ef- fect that Emperor Willlam in his re- cent interview with the Russian Em- peror sought to obtain the consent of | the later for a Prince of the house of | Hohenzollern to ascend the throne of | Norway.

MONTREAL, July The proposed excursion of the Forty-thirl Regiment, the Duke of Cornwall's Own Rifles, of Ottawa, to Providence, R. I, for the pur- pose of participating in a celebration by | the residents of that city has been aban- | doned because of the difficulty encoun- | tered with the authorities of the Sta!esi through which the regiment would have tofpass. The regiment recelved permission from | the Federal authorities of the United States to cross the boundary, but it | would not be allowed to carry arms en | route, as the laws of Massachusetts definitely prohibit the invasion of the State by a foreign armed military force. unless permission be granted through a speclal legislative act.
