Capitol Graft Trial Harry Thaw at Matteawan Student Lost Hit Life In Fire Governor Hughes New York's Candidate Secretary Taft'a Recommendations. A boy king, who henceforth will be known as Manuel II., is today, the ruler of the kingdom of Portugal, and the revolution into which the Instiga tors of the bloody events had hoped to plunge the country has not yet in the least engulfed the nation. All Portugal is overwhelmed at the killing of the king and the crown prince. Though torn by dissensions the past few months, terrorized by crime and bloodshed, uprisings in the streets, outrages with knife and bomb, and always fearful lest these signs of revolution would culminate in some dreadful outburst of passion, Portugal was not prepared for the blow that fell Saturday when King Carlos and Prince Lulz Philippe were shot to death In a public place, where thousands had gathered to greet their home-coming. Early Sunday morning Premier Franco proclaimed the acceslon of Prince Manuel to the throne; the na val and military chiefs and high dig nitaries 'of state Bwore allegiance to the new king and Portugal still lived under a monarchy. No more beautiful day could be Imagined than that which hereafter will make the date on which King Carlos and Crown Prince Lulz met thplr death at the hands of assassins. Returning from a sojourn at the klng'B estate at Villa Vlcosa, accom panied by the queen, the crown prince and the Infant Manuel, the sovereign seemingly was In happy mood when he stepped into the carriage in wait ing at the railroad station. The assassins, numbering six in all, boldly ran up to the Bides of the car riage and poured In a hall of lead be fore the stupefied escort could Inter vene. The king and crown prince, half rising, fell back Into the cush ions, the blood gushing from many wounds. The coachman brought his whip across the flanks of his horses and with a bound they dashed away, dis appearing Into the Arsenal quad rangle. The panic stricken people, who had fled on all sides, could see the queen leaning over the crown prince and her younger son, who also was bleeding from wounds. Only mounted police accompanied the carriage, as the king had refused military escort. The attack came from the roar, for it was found after wards that the kinghad been shot In the back of the neck, and it was so entirely unexpected that the mur derers had emptied their carbines and revolvers almost before the po lice knew what was going on, and had turned to flee into the crowds that, now panic-stricken, had pressed back before their weapons. Then the guard charged upon them,, pursuing them down the streets and riddling three of them with bullets. Hun dreds of the people joined In the pur suit and the 'others of the band of as sassins were made prisoners. Wagonload of Furniture la Court. More, than $:!,000,000 was paid to Contractor John H. Sanderson for fur nishings for the new stafe Capitol be fore his bills began to be approved by the board of public grounds and build ings as required by law. This was brought out at the trial of Sanderson, former State Treasurer Matheus, form er Auditor General Snyder and James H. Shumaker, former superintendent of grounds and buildings. These bills were put in evidence by the commonwealth In spite of vigor ous objections by the defense for the purpose of showing the system which the commonwealth alleges was pur sued to defraud the state. The commonwealth brought down from the Capitol and stored In the court house a .wagonload of furniture which it offered In evidence when the trial was resumed Monday. This furniture includes the bootblack stand, for which Sanderson collected $1,619 from the state and paid the sub-con-tractor $123, and desks and chairs upon which Sanderson's profits were 300 and 400 per cent. Design to Eliminate Negro Vote. A constitutional amendment de signed to eliminate as- far as possible the negro vole In Maryland was intro duced In the legislature. The meas ure, which is expected to pass with out material change, provides for a property qualification and an educa tional test. White voters of either Iforelgn or native birth are admitted to suffrage without restraint through special provisions. The amendment was drafted by a committee of leading Democratic lawyers. A majority vote nt the polls Is necessary before it be comes a part of the constitution. Jury Find For Widow and Son. The Jury in Hie Schooley -Crawford will contest at Scranton, Pa., de clared that' the uaper presented by George B. Schooley as the last will f Thomas T. Crawford, the minion aire coal operator. Is a forgery in their opinion. They found In favor of Mrs. Crawford, the widow, and her on tn whom the property was left by Mr.' Crawford. More than $1,000,000 was Involved In the contest. Harry Thaw at Matteawan. Harry Kendall Thaw arrived at Matteawan Saturday night and was Assigned to the observation ward of the state asylum for the criminal In sane, where he will remain for a week or two until the authorities' can note his mental condition. Thaw sleeps in a small iron bed in a dormitory where about fifty other men are quartered. An attendant constantly Is on guard. When Dr. Robert B. Lamb, medical superintendent of the hospital, was told that Thaw had been committed to the Institution he said the prisoner would have no special privileges. "The first thing to do with him," said Dr. Lamb, "as with all patients, Is to place him In the observation ward, there to remain until we note bis mental condition. After studying his mental derangement we can then assign him with some Judgment to some particular ward In the hospital. He cannot have any special quarters, for all the patients here are treated alike." Student Lost Hit Life In Fire. From the ruins of the Alpha Tail Omega fraternity house at Cornell university, which burned Friday, was taken the charred body of J. S. Klehle, a Junior in mechanical engineering. That any lives had been lost In the fire was not known until a meeting of the fraternity was held at S p. m., when a roll call showed that Klehle was missing. The ruins were prompt ly searched and his corpse was found near the elevator shaft where the Are originated. It is supposed that Klehle was on his way to the upper floor to save "Ted" Seelye of the Cornell cross country team, who was known to be an occupant of a room there. Seelye, scantily clad, escaped through a sec ond story window to a balcony porch end down a ladder. Klehle was from Minneapolis, and was one of the squad tried out for the football team last fall. The loss is $25,000. Governor Hughes Strongly Endorsed. Governor Hughes was strongly en dorsed for the Republican nomination for the presidency, and the administra tion of President Roosevelt was com mended In resolution, unanimously passed by the New Vork Republican county committee at a meeting in the Murray Hill Lyceum Wednesday night. The resolution further favored an Instructed delegation to the Chicago convention from this state for Gov ernor Hughes, which should use all honorable means to secure his nomina tion until "he is either nominated or directs the withdrawal of his name from the consideration of the conven tion." The committee, under la resolu tion, pledges Itself to do all In Its pow er to secure from congressional con ventions and the state convention the adoption of resolutions instruct ing for Governor Hughes. Speaker Cole Indicted. Speaker John N. Cole of the Mas sachusetts house of representatives, whose home Is at Andover, was Indict ed in Essex comity on a charge of vio lating the public statutes In request ing a reduced rate of fare on the Bos ton and Maine railroad for a large number of persons. The Indictment Is In 123 counts, and the statute pro vides a penalty In each case of a fine of not less than $100 nor more than $1,000. Speaker Cole heard of the action of the Jury before he left the state house and issued a statement claiming that while he had recommended reduced fares for a number of "worthy stu dents," he had not violated any statute and that the proceedings were Insti tuted and partly paid for by political opponents. Recommendations by Secretary Taft. Secretary of War Taft returned from Ohio to Washington and la ter appeared before the house com mittee on military affairs, where he urged a variety of legislation, Includ ing the establishment of an army post at Benguet, P. I., for recruiting pur poses; a general increase In pay for the army, percentages to be determ ined by the president; the establish ment of a rifle and artillery range for the department of the East, the site to be selected near Washington by the department; the continuance of the Porto Rican regiment; changes In the organization of army scouts for the good of the service, and the reception at the West Point academy of seven Philippine cadets. Responsible For Theater Holocaust. The jury which has been Investi gating the disastrous Are at Rhoades Opera house at Boyertown, Pa., In wfiich 109 persons lost their lives, re turned a verdict at 1 o'clock Thursday morning. The verdict in part Is as follows; "We are of the opinion that Mrs. Monroe and the deputy factory Inspector are largely responsible for the disaster on account of negligence. We request the prosecuting attorney of Berks county to arrest and, if pos sible, convict Mrs. Monroe, owner of the storeoptlcan machine, and Harry McC. Bechtel. the deputy factory In spector, on the charge of criminal neg ligence." Possible British Intervention. It is believed In Brussels that the reference recently made by King Edward of England to the Congo Inde pendent State in his speech from tho throne at the opening of parliament foreshadows British intervention in tho Congo if the present project for (the annexation of the state to Bolglum should f.ill through. DICTATOR RETIRES Portugal Seems to Be at Peace Under New Cabinet. Assassins Planned to Kill Royal Fam ilyLots Drawn For Each Victim, but Those Who Drew Queen Amelia and Prince Manuel Failed to ar ry Out Their Bloody Task. . Rome, Feb. 4. It Is announced that If the situation In Portugal grows worse Italy will send a warship to Us bon. It Is also announced that Italy wHl dispatch a warship to that port if the Dowager Queen Maria Pia ex presses a wish to leave that country. Lisbon1, Feb. 4. Under a new re gime, with a new king and the es tablfshment of a new cabinet, Portu gal seems to be for the moment at peace. There is an underlying cur rent of revolutions, however, and the strictest measures are being taken to preserve order. Yesterday an official statement was given out that perfect order existed throughout Portugal. Franco, the once dictator, was forc ed to resign because of the bitterness of the people against him and the new cabinet will strive for the welfare of the fatherland under the presidency of Rear Admiral Do Amaral. An other official statement was given out that the president of the cabinet will be supported by all the groups of Mon archists, who have agreed to forget previous differences. Franco's Position Impossible. The situation for Premier Franco af ter the assassination of the king and the crown prince became Impossible. During the days which preceded the tragedy and during the tumultuous manifestations on the streets, with the later discoveries of vast stores of arms and bombs, public opinion back ed him In his effort to maintain order, but the murders changed the entire complexion of the situation. He has not been on the streets since his meet ing with the king after the latter's ar rival from Villa Vlcosa, but all pos sible places where he might be have been closely watched and guarded. The new cabinet, which Is composed of the strongest members of the vari ous factions, but all opposed to Fran co, has drawn to It a strong patriotic supporting movement. During the night Admiral Do Amaral and the chiefs of the Monarchlstic parties held a protracted session and laid out a program looking to the pacification of the people. Word has been received here that a British fleet, the number of vessels not being stated, passed Oporto this morning bound for Lisbon. Plot to Kill Whole Family. The investigations of the police show that the murders were carefully planned. On Saturday the assassins met secretly in the back room of a cafe and there laid out every step of the plot, which they were enabled to do as all the details relating to the homecoming of the king had been made public. To each was assigned a post In the work of shooting down the members of the royal family, but lots were drawn for the selection of each particular victim. Those who drew Queen Amelle and Prince Man uel failed to carry out their bloody tnsk. The chamber In the palace where repose the bodies of King Carlos and the crown prince has b"en draped In mourning and arranged to represent a chapel. The biers are surrounded by lighted candles and Queen Amelle, widow of the king, and the Dowager Queen Maria Pla, his -mother, watch continually at the side of their dead. The body of the king Is clad In the nnlform of a romander-in-chlef of the army, while the prince wears a uni form of a captain of the Second Lan cers. Several masses for the repose of the souls departed have been said In the mortuary chamber. The funer als will be held Feb. 8 and the bodies will lie In state probably beginning to morrow. It is expected that the fu nerals will be attended by the Prince of Wales, Prince Charles of Bourbon, the Duke of Aosta, the cousin of King Victor Emmanuel, a special French embassy and detachments of the for eign regiments of which the late king was honorary colonel. The condition of Queen Amelle, con trary to rumors. Is relatively good. The Duke of Oporto, brother of tho late king, has established his resl ience at the palace, where he will re main for a time. The countess of Paris, Queen Anielle's mother, Is on her way here. Charles Page Bryan, the American minister to Portugal, was the first di plomat to offer condolence to the royal family. Little by little Lisbon Is regaining Its normal aspect, although all the public buildings and the palace are still guarded by cordons of soldiers and detachments of the. municipal guard. A number of the newspapers of tho city have suspended publica tion. Game Protector Sentenced. Utica. N. Y.. Feb. 4. Harvey N. Oaylord, the former fish and game protector who on Saturday was con victed at Herkimer for selling tim ber from state lands, was yesterday sentenced to Auburn prison for not less than one year and not more than three years and six months.

Near Lake Which Caused the Johns town Disaster 19 Years Ago. Johnstown, Pa. Feb. 4. The South Fork "lake," a site of the dam whose demolition by the . pent-up waters wrought one of the world's great dis asters in ' Johnstown nineteen years igo, is ow the scene of the building jf a new town. -the Maryland Coal company eigh teen months ago purchased for over half .4 million dollars the coal owned !y the James J. Fronhelser estate of this city. Pittsburg Interest In the large transfer is represented In the fact that J. A. Fronhelser, whose wife was Miss Haymaker, daughter f Judge John C. Haymaker, is one of the two heirs of the Fronhelser es tate. For a year the Maryland people have been working on the shaft to tap the Fronhelser coal, and while the mining engineers have hustled carpenters and stonemasons and arch itects have also been busy. St. Michaels is the name selected for the new town which is going up around the mining operations, and it promises in time to be a lively rival of South Fork. One feature of the transformation !s the reopening of the clubhouse of the famous South Fork Hunting and Pishing club, which John L. Sechler jf this city has occupied while direct ing the real estate developments In connection with the building of St. Michaels. Mr. Sechler has found a number of Interesting documents and relics of the old club, most of them records of the club steward.

The coal Is the finest In the basin and is issured of a ready market from the arst. Letter Fifty-Three Years In Transit. Newark, N. J., Feb. 2. Postmaster lames L. Hays has in his care a let ter addressed to "Miss Elizabeth CSarthawaite, Newark, N. J." which ae would like to deliver.
