(Jccu'ro, mill Upoiko Siixton, tlio Mimloroil Mini, Hnil Hoon. Chnruoil by tin) IIiiHlmnd With Alitlnjr Hop Dlvon-o Cimo. Cnnton, O., Oct. 8. Ocoree Saxton, a brother of Mrs. William MoKlnley, was shot dead at C:10 o'clock last even ing before the residence of Mrs. Kva A. Altfiouse, widow of tho late George Althouse, 319 Lincoln avenue, where he Is presumed to have gone to mnke a call. Five shots were fired, three of which bntered his body, and Mrs. Anna C. George has been placed under ar rest on suspicion of tho murder. Saxton was unconscious when neigh bors arrived to Investigate the cause of the shooting and was dead when tho physicians and ofllcers arrived, the for rripr having expressed the opinion that death was Instantaneous, three bullets having entered the vital spot. His po sition Indicated that he had been on the steps to the Althouse residence when the shots were fired. The body was taken to an undertaking establishment nnd placed In charge of the coroner. Immediately after the autopsy It will he taken to the home of M. C. Ilarber, a brother-in-law, where Saxton, who was unmarried, made his home. Mr. Saxton left tho Barber home about 0 o'clock, riding his bicycle, and this was the last seen of him by his friends. Tho Althouse home was dark nnd locked, and the neighbors said Mrs. Althouse had not been at home for the past three days. One of the neighbors said a woman, suppowil to have dono the shooting, had passed back of the house. Mrs. George took her supper, as usual, at a downtown restaurant at 4:45, and pome time later was on a westbound car, nnd according to tho motormnu's story pot off nt Ilnzlett nvenue, near the Althouse home. About 9 o'clock she was nrrested by the po lice ofllcers and locked un. Trouble In locating her wns due principally to the fact that she moved from her old home on Thursday. When Mrs. George was taken to the police station she seemed perfectly self possessed. She wns questioned by Prosecuting Attorney l'omerent, who assured her that If she could show sho had nothing to do with the Saxton shooting she would not be ilotalned for a moment. She refused to answer questions, declaring In a perfectly calm and quiet tone: "Pardon me, sir; I will talk when tho proper time comes.' Mrs. George was taken Into the wo. man's department and nn examination was made. Nothing was found on her. The skin of her hands was scraped and will be analyzed to see whether (here Is any trace of gunpowder on them, She was then locked up to await a hearing. Mrs. George Is the divorced wife of Sample C. George, who formerly was a tenant of Saxton In his downtown business block, conducting a dressmak lng business. Her divorce wn3 obtained In Dakota, and a proceeding Inter filed In local courts by the husband .against Saxton charged that Saxton had sent her there to secure the divorce, the proceeding here being a suit for dam ages for the alleged alienation of the wife's affections. This case has been through all the Intermediate courts and was pnssdd upon by the state supreme court on an Inter-pleading, and finally remanded for hearing on Its merits here. Before this occurred, and on Wednesday, n settlement was effected, Saxton paying George $1,E2S on the claim set up of $20,000 for damages. As soon as he had settled the case George announced that he had been married for more than a year to Miss I.tioy Grnham, of Alliance, O. Mrs. George has also had several cases against Saxton, claiming tho de tention of furniture, the defense of Sax ton. being that tho articles .were held for overdue rent In the rooms. Mrs. Althouse, in front of whose house tho shooting occurred, several months ago began peace proceedings against Mrs. George, alleging that her life .had been threatened. It Is common talk that Mrs. George made frequent threats to take Sax ton's life. Many of these threats are said to have been sent through tho malls, and tho federal grand jury sit ting In Cleveland last fall indicted her for alleged Improper use of tho malls Mrs. George gave bond nnd the Indict ment, so far as known hero, Is still alive. Mrs. George claims Saxton deceived her and deserted her for another. A Clever Trick It certainly looks liko it, but thoro is really no trick nboiit it.

London, Oct. !. Tho Hong Kong cor respondent of The Times telegraphs the substance of a long Interview ho hns had with Kang-Yu-Wel, the Cantonese refoiin.'i, In which the latter recounted the history of the crisis. Kang-Yu-Wel said that on June 10 he had a two hours' audience of tho emperor, who, anxious about tho Hussion encroach ments, was ready to listen to any plan to secure tho Integrity of tho empire. The Times correspondent, continues: Knng ndvlsed replacing the conserva tive ministers by young progressives and the employment of Kngllshmen nnd Americans to effect suggested re forms. He advised the emperor to tudy the progress of Japan nnd west ern methods. The emperor admitted the cogency of his arguments, but ex pressed his regret at being unable to remove high olllclals because of the empress dowager. Kang then urged his majesty to strengthen his friendship with foreign powers, In particular to secure an al liance with Englnnd. The emperor said he realized that foreign countries were no longer Insignificant states, and ob served that It wns a pity that his min isters had not averted the Impending troubles. Kang says the real power at Pekln Is held by Ll-Luen-Ynn, a sham eunuch, nnd that the dowager's Il legitimate son, Chung-Ming, will prob ably be made emperor. On the morning of Sept. IS Kang re ceived two letters from the emperor, dated respectively Sept. 1G and 17. The first represented the dllllcultles of his position, the empress dowager's anger, and his fears that he would be unable to protect his throne, and commanded Kang to consult with his colleagues as to how to save the emperor. In the second letter his majesty said: "I have commanded you to superin tend the establishment of an official organ. It Is strongly against my wish. I huve great sorrow, which I cannot describe with Ink and pen. You must proceed Immediately outside to devise means to save mo without a moment's delay." Tho letter concluded with an expres sion of gratitude for Kang's faithful ness, a warning to him to take care of himself, and an expression of hope that matters would mend ere long. Kang promptly visited the American missionary, Timothy Richard, whom he asked to call upon the British and American legations. Sir Claude Mac- Donald (British minister) was at Pel- Tal-So and the American minister (Mr. Conger) was at Sl-Shan. Ominous rumors were In circulation that day. nnd Kang fled. He was astonished that England protected him, and he urges the British government to take prompt action to save the emperor." THE CmXKSK KKOKXCY. Tho Downerof Kniproin ltooolvoH tho Cnhlnot OIUoluls Dully. London, Oct. V'. The Pekln corre spondent of Tho Times, telegraphing on Tuesday, says: Tho restoration of the regency Is complete. The empress dowager receives the cabinet dally, sented behind the emperor openly, nnd not, ns formerly, behind a screen. Tho government Is more retrograde and reactionary. Yung Lu, one of his trusted friends, succeeds the late Prlnco Kunc ns the chief Mnnchu, while the viceroy of the prov- nce of Chi Le Is a Jtachu. Nevertheless, despite assertions to the contrary, the balance of power between the Chinese and Manchus in high olllce Is unaltered In the central government, though there Is a small proportional Inciease of Man chus In provincial posts. The tsung 11 yamen contains no member cognizant of foreign affairs. Its chief working member Is Hsu Yung Yl, the negotiator of the Gerard con vention of 1893, who was subsequently removed from the tsung 11 yamen at the Instirhce of Sir Nicholas O'Connor (then British minister to China) for breach of faith, but who was reappointed last month. He says his chief colleague will be Hsu Chlng Chong, former min ister to Hussla and now director of the Trnnsmanchurlan railway, who long re celveilf.tusslan financial assistance. The Itusslans welcome the change as In- creating their Influence. The Immediate existing cause of the change was the Impending edict order ing ofllcluls to abolish the queue and to adopt foreign dress. A search of tho house of Kang Yu Wei, tho reformer, resulted In tho discovery of papers proving that he was carrying on a cor respondence with the leaders of the an- tl-dynastlc movement In southern China. The tsung li yamen, having unavall- Ingly entreated the foreign legations to spare China the humiliation of bring ing foreign escorts to the capital, agreed to the demand of the powers for a special train to bring the escort from Tien Tsln.

Accordion to OhIoi-h. nud Did Not I. earn of tho Chnuiro of Ditto UutH Aflor Ills Arrlvnl. Manzanillo, Cuha, Oct. 8. Yesterday will be a dny long to bo remembered In tho history of Manzanillo. A fight was narrowly averted between the Spanish garrison under Colonel I'arron nnd the United States troops under Colonel Itay, who arrived here from Snntlago on Wednesday to take pos session of the city. The arrival of the Americans had taken the Spanish commnnder by sur prise, and he had represented to Colo nel Hay that he had received word from General Hlanco informing him that the date for the American occu pation had been postponed to Oct. 10. lie requested Colonel Hay to cable for additional Instructions. Tho latter consented to do so, and sent a dis patch to Oeneral Lawton at Santiago. At 7 o'clock yesterday morning Colo nel Itay, not having hoard from Gen eral Lawton to the contrary, sent word by Adjutant Collins to Colonel Parron that, In accordance with his instruc tions, he should march his men to the city from the dock a mile away, where the United States transport Itelna de los Angeles had moved at the request of Colonel Parron, and would lake pos session of the public buildings in the name of the United States. At 8 o'clock the battalion was In mo tion, with colors Hying. Colonel Itay marched toward the city, but before the troops reached the city gate Adju tant Collins arrived with Colonel Par ron's reply. The latter said he had no objection to surrendering the custom house at once, provided the American flag was not raised. Colonel Hay re torted that the United States was not accustomed to taking possession with out displaying the insignia of its sov ereignty. The march was then continued to ward tho city. When the troops passed the guard at the gate a body of 25 the latter lined up and saluted. The report soon spread through the city that the Americans had arrived with colors flying, and the streets were soon thronged by apparently the whole population, men, women and children turning out by thousands as the regi ment marched toward the principal Bquare, where It halted. At this point a Spanish bugle? sound ed the call to arms, and the Spanish garrison turned out to the number of BOO men on the other side of the square. Colonel Itay visited Colonel Parron at the palace, and a somewhat stormy In terview took place between them, with the aid of an Interpreter. The Spanish commander said he had understood from Colonel Hay that matters were to remain over until Oct. 10, and that he considered himself tricked. Colonel Ray explained that he had never said anything of the sort, that his Instruc tions were to take possession of the city on Oct. 7, that he had cabled for further Instructions, and, not having received any, that he had proceeded to act upon his original orders. Thereupon Colonel Parron said the American troops must be removed at once. Colonel Itay refused. Colonel Parron declared he would use force. Colonel Ray answered: "If you wish to precipitate further hostilities with the United States I am unable to pre vent It. But so far as I am concerned I have certain orders which, as a sol dier, I am bound to carry out. I ap preciate the position In which you find yourself, but am unable to help you. If the United States troops are fired upon I believe the men who are with mo are quite able to take care of them selves, even though a little outnumber ed, and although I am opposed to uso less waste of life I shall face the lssuo In any way It suits you." Colonel Parron Bald he would Im mediately order the arrest of the of ficer who allowed the American troop3 to pass the city gate. Colonel Ray retorted: "If he had re fused I should have been under tho unpleasant necessity of shooting him and then forcing an entrance." After considerable discussion and many requests on the part of Colonel Parron that Colonel Ray should take his men out of the city until General Blanco could be communicated with, It was decided not to take action until the cable office had closed at 6 o'clock In the afternoon. On leaving tho palace the two colo nels walked to tho square, where they arrived Just In time to prevent a col lision between their forces. It appears that some Spanish olllcer, who had mis. understood an order from Colonel Par ron, had Just notified the American troops that they must leave Immedi ately. Captain Frost, In command during Colonel Ray's absence, refused to comply, whereupon he was told that the blood of his men would be upon their own heads. At this moment Colonel Ray came up, and Cuptaln Frost repeated tho occur rence. Colonel Parron promptly or dered his over zealous subordinate away. Some time before tho cable closed Colonel Ray received a dispatch from General Wade explaining that the com mander of the Spanish troops at Man zanillo hnd requested a delay until Oct. 10, nnd that the formal evacuation was, therefore, postponed. The United States troops remained In the barracks last night by permission of Colonel Parron, and today withdrew from tho city, to return again on Mon day. Smith DolViiln MoKoovor. New York, Oct. 8.

Dr. Cunning ham Gelkle, the well known religious commentator and historian. Is dead. Dr. Gelkle, who had been living quietly at Bournemouth since 1890, when ho re tired from his pastorate work as vicar of St. Martin, nt Palace, Norwich, was born In Edinburgh, Oct. 26, 1821 What nobler, better ambition can a youiijr couple have than to live loving, helpful lives, nnd then, in a green old age, look back over a life that has been mutually self.tacriGcing, uxeful and successful? The one great stumbling-block that stands be tween most married couples and this ideal married career Is ill-health. If both hus band and wife would take proper care of their health, there would be more hale, hearty and happy old people In the world. If, when a man 'suffers from the little ills of life, he will resort to Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery, the chances are that he will avoid the big and fatal illnesses. This great medicine gives a man a healthy hunger, facilitates the flow of digestive juices, Invigorates the liver, purifies and enriches the blood and builds Arm, muscu lar, healthy flesh tissue. It is an old saying that women are hard to kill. There is some truth in this, as far as the majority of illnesses are concerned. There is one claij of disorders, however, that quickly undermine any woman's gen eral health. No woman can retain her strength who suiters from weakness and disease of the delicate and important or gans that make wifehood and motherhood possible. Dr. Pierce's Favorite Inscrip tion is an unfailing cure for all disorders of this description. It nets directly on the sensitive organs concerned, in a natural, soothing way. It makes them atrong, healthy aud vigotous. It prepares them to bear the burdens of maternity. It Is the greatest of nerve tonics. The. woman who uses it will bear healthy, happy child ren, and live to a ripe old age. Dr. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets regulate aud Invigorate the stomach, liver and bowels, liy all medicine dealers.
