Ena Saves Condemned Man Czar's Fight With Parliament Inspection of Fresh Meats Trading Stamp Men Arrested Restriction on Mil lineryStandard Oil Methods.

Rnaln will be elven a new oueen on Thursday, when Princess Ena of Bat- tenberc. niece of King Edward VII of Great Britain, will be married to King Alfonso XIII of Spain. The ceremony will take place In the old church of San Jeronlmo In Madrid and the state ceremonies nnd popular fetes will oc cupy the days until June 8. The nrocram for this week Includes a gala banquet on Friday, and a flower hnttle and irala reDresentatlon at the opera on Saturday. Representatives of many foreign governments will be present and an exceptionally brilliant gathering is assured. Princess Saves Condemned Man. The first notable act of Princess Ena on her arrival In Madrid to become the brido of King Alfonso XIII has been to Induce the king to pardon Fer naudino Levera, who was condemned to death after an exciting trial. The dramatic circumstance under which pardon was given, as the con demned man was going to the gallows. attracts widespread attention and further augments the popularity oi Princess Ena. Levera was to have been executed in the nelgnborlng town of Badajoz, but the population solicited Princess Ena's intercession and she Bpoke to the king, who consulted with the min isters and after a cabinet council the Eovernment resolved to grant the re quest, ns It was. the first petition the princess had made in Spain. Thereupon the kins Issued a par don and a telegram announcing this fact reached the prison at Badajoz half an hour before the time set for the execution. The march to the scaffold was about to begin when a messenger brought word of the pardon. Czar's Conflict With Parliament. With breathless anxiety society In St. Petersburg awaits the govern ment's response to the bold action of the lower house of parliament Sat urdar. which in censuring the ministry and demanding Its retirement was like a deliberate slap In the face and a direct challenge, which the govern ment, though inclined to prefer Its usual policy of temporization and com promise, can hardly avoid meeting. Parliament has burned the bridge nnd virtually has taken the step which the French states general did when it transformed Itself into a nutlonal con- vpntlon. By flaunting the fundamental laws nnil nracticallv declaring that It pro poses to exercise fuK parliamentary rights with a responsible ministry it has become In the eyes of the law a revolutionary body and from that po- eitlnn there seems no retreat. The news of the action of the house came like an electric shock, the peo ple eenerallv helne as greatly sur prised as the bureaucracy at the promptness with which the whole oi the government's policy was absolute ly scorned. The Constitutional Democratic chiefs are displaying calmness In the face of the crisis. They declare that having delivered their reply they pur pose to eo calmly ahead with the work before them, forcing the government to take the Initiative. The Sea-Level Canal Bill. The senate Is counting upon a busy week. The sea-level canal bill, having been made the unfinished business, will be pressed as steadily as circum stances will permit.

When the canal type hill Is tnl;en up Senator Kittredgo will present the rea sons which Impelled the majority of the committee on Inteioceanlc canals to report in favor of the sen-level plan It Is understood that his address will bo the Hist of a series on the subject. On Tuesday Senator Millard, chair man of the canal committee, will pre sent a report giving the views of the minority members In favor of a lock canal. Sundry Civil Appropriation Bill. Work on the sundry civil appropria tion bill will begin Wednesday In the national house. This bill is larger and carries more money than' any preced ing sundry civil act. The aggregate will be In the neighborhood of $90,- 000,000. The items relate to practic ally every branch of the public service and consequently have a bearing In nearly every congressional district. For this reason there will be many speeches. Chairman Tawney esti mates that It will require fully a week to finish the bill. Inspection of Fresh Meats. The senate has passed the agricul tural appropriation bill carrying an appropriation of $7,800,000 and without debate or objection added to it as an amendment the bill providing for an inspection of fresh meats Intended for domestic consumption. The provision Is along the general lines of the law for the inspection of meats Intended to bo shipped abroad and the work is delegated to the bureau of animal Industry. It requires that acceptable meats shall be labelled and authorizes the destruction of condemned products. It also authorizes the Inspection of all animals before they enter the packing houses and requires that those estab lishments shall be maintained in a sanitary condition, gives the inspec tors access to all departments of them, nnd forbids Interstate commerce In fresh meats which are not marked by the Inspectors. Trading Stamp Men Arrested. On charges of having defrauded merchauts of Philadelphia and vicin ity by false pretence out of hundreds of thousands of dollars, L. A. Belmont, representing the Yellow Trading Stamp company; William Glenn, presi dent of the Crown Trading Stamp com pany, and H. E. Wlnslow, local repre sentatlve of the Sperry aud Hutchln son Trading Stamp company, were ar rested and held In ball for a hearing. The prosecutors charge that the trading stamp companies defrauded the retail merchants by representing that premiums given on a $5 book of stamps were worth the full value, whereas the merchants claim that the premiums were not worth more than $2 and in many cases were only worth 75 cents. Wlnslow and Glenn deny the charges. No Wild Birds on Hats. Commissioner Whipple of the New Vork state forest, fish and game de parttuent serves notice through the press to the milliners of the state that his department intends to use every legitimate means to enforce the law prohibiting the possession or sale of the bodies or feathers of wild birds, whether taken in this state or else where. The penalty for each violation of the law Is a $G0 fine and an additional $25 for each bird or part thereof sold, of fered for sale or possessed. Death of Norway's Great Poet. Henrlk Ibsen, Norway's greatest poet and dramatist, died peacefully Wednesday afternoon. Although Ibsen's literary activity ceased some years ago when an apo plectic seizure forced him to refrain from mental effort, he had continued to be a familiar figure In the life of Chrlstiania and was frequently seen with a companion. His sudden remov al, therefore, deeply Impressed the capital. Hired to Ruin Competitors. George L. Lane, an employe of the Standard Oil company previous to 1901, testified at Cleveland at the interstate commerce commission Standard Oil hearing that his business for several years for the Standard Oil company was to drive out the Inde pendent dealers, to kill them off, and he was told that If he could not do the job somebody else would be sent to put the Standard's competitors out of business.

MAN DIES, WIFE HURT. 8ame Horse Responsible For Two Ac cidents Several Hours Apart. Philadelphia, May 29. By a queer coincidence James Jackson, a widely known farmer of Fox Chase, died in the Frankford hospital without know ing that his wife was In the adjoining room seriously if not fatally Injured, the same horse having been respon sible for both accidents, which oc curred several hours apart. Mrs. Jackson started Saturday morn ing on a shopping expedition, driving a young and spirited horse. She had not proceeded far when the animal be came frightened by an automobile and ran away. Mrs. Jackson was thrown headlong to the road and the wagon badly wrecked. The automobilists picked up the wo man, carried her to the hospital and then hurried away without revealing their Identity. The machine, the po lice think, belongs to a wellkuown manufacturer of this city. Farmer Jackson learned of the run away several hours later, but did not know that his wife had been injured and supposed that Bhe had gone to the house of a friend In the neighborhood. Late In the afternoon he started out In search of the horse, intending then to return for another wagon In which to bring Mrs. Jackson home. He found the animal in the stable of a friend about a mile away, and, mounting the horse, he started for home. Being very nervous the horse acted badly, and Jackson struck the animal. At the first blow the horse bolted and threw him into a ditch. He, too, was picked up unconscious and hurried to the Frankford hospital, where he died shortly afterward. He was 69 years old. Mrs. Jackson Is reported to be In a critical condition. She knows nothing of her husband's death. HAUNTED MAN IS SLAIN. Meets Death In Same Place and Same Manner as His Victim. Pittsburg, May 29.

Dpff was awakeived by some one try ing to gain an entrance through the parlor window. He opened fire, shoot ing and killing Michael Burke, a mill worker. There were no burglar tools found on the body nnd the general supposition was that Burke had been drinking and wandered to the Burd home by mistake. The coroner exon erated Duff. The old man never recovered from the shock occasioned by the accident. Frequently Mr. Duff would arise early unable to sleep, and take long strolls. He arose about 1 o'clock on Saturday morning, expecting to take a stroll. His son-in-law heard the noise. Seizing his revolver he rushed into the hallway.
