DEATH HAS NO FEARS
For The Pair of Italian Murderer
 WhO Swing To-Day.

OA s Who Swing To-Day.
 THoMAsToN. Me, April 16.-Santore and Capone, who are to be hanged tomorrow, are at this writing sleeping as calmly as if they were innocent children A watchnan looks at them every half hour. Father Boni face, of Boston, the Italian Catholic priest, and Fathers Peterson and Harrington, of Rockland, have been with them nearly all day trying to bring them to a suitable frame ot mind to receive the sacrament. One Of the priests has visited them every day this week, but the men seem totally callous to hgious influence. Santore, the more intelli- gent, was asked if as he was about to die he would not forgive Capone. 'I would cut my own throat first" said he with a wicked flash of the eye They hate each other implacably and will to the close. Each continues to charge the worst features of the crime on the other. Capone seems a trife nervous, but Santore though excited does not seem to fear the ordeal. Capone has within day or two tried to induce belief that he is insane by telling the officers that he is not to be hanged for six years Both men lie to the officers and to the priests about the most trivial matters. Dr. Gerrish of the medical school at Brunswick is here and has applied to have the bodies turned over to that institution for scientific purposes. If the men request to be buried or if relatives or friends apply for the bodies within three days the law will not allow the bodies to be dissected. Otherwise Dr. Gerrish will get them. The doctor has applied for permission to inject morphine hypodermically into the men just before execution, but this will not be allowed In Snaofnre Bedlow of the Western Union and several re- porters are here on business connected with the execution. The gallows was erected yes terday in the old quarry in the prison yard It is placed under platform between two buildings completely out of sight of all parts of the prison. The men will be given drop of eight feet. The platform is fourteen feet from the ground.
 Wife Murderer Confesses.
 THoMAsToN, Me-, April 16-James S. Lowell of Lewiston who in 1874 was con- victed of wife murder and sentenced to death, but whose sentence was afterward commuted to imprisonment for life, made full confession to the prison officials to-day He said he took his wife to ride and rel arose during which he inadvertently ehoked her to death. He then cut off the head and hid it under log out dis tance from the body in order to make iden- tlfication difficult. Lowell states the circum- stances which lead to the crime, but they are unfit for publication. The body of the victim was not found till two years after the murder and was then Eut skeleton so that the Identification was not absolute. It was generally thought that Mrs. Lowell had run away with circus and many hitherto be lieved Lowell innocent

After brief illness of ten days Mrs. James Fitzgerald passed away yesterday morning at her home, No. IFS Liberty street, at the age of ffty-five years. Mrs. Fitzgerald came to this city from her home in County Limerick, Ireland, thirty-fve years ago, and has since made her residence here. She was a member of St. Johns church, having at tended in the old wooden structure that stood where the brick church now stands. The deceased was a fervent Christian woman, shaping her life in all things in accordance with the golden rule. Charity was with her living principle of action, and to the orphan especially did she exemplify in it's largest capacity the tender sympathy that was a marked characteristic of her nature. During her long residence here she made many friends whose hearts will go out in sympathy to the three bereaved ones who mourn her death. The funeral will take place Sunday afternoon at 2:30.

The Bostons scored that where the Waterbury made three. The Waterburys played new battery of last years Milwaukees, the McDer1nott brothers They proved very effective after the first in ming, during which the whole nine was badly rattled. The visitors played strong, steady game, but their pitcher was not as effective as he might be. The score was: Boston Unions II, Waterburys 3.

GLADsToNE RISES TO DENY
That He Has Received a Peace Tele- gram From the Czar-General kOm- arOf Now Holding Penjdeh.

That He Has Received a Peace TeIe-
 gram From the Czar-GeneraI Kom-
 arOf Now Holding Penjdeh.
 LONDON, April 16,-1n the House of Com mons this afternoon Mir. Gladstone, in reply co question, denied the authenticity of the statement in the Daily Telegraph that the Czar had sent personal message to himself (Gladstone) that war would be deplorable. No such communication had been submitted to him by Baron de Stael, and therefore the reports of communications from the Czar and favorable replies thereto by himself were unfounded. MT. Gladstone further stated that the statement that Penjdeh had been ceded to Russia is entirely unauthorized. This announcement was received by nearly the whole House with volley of hootings and jeers, and great confusion reigned for some moments. When quiet was restored
 MT. Gladstone, upon again being questioned,
 refused to speak further.
 M. Lessar, the special envoy of the Czar, said to-day to repo8er, that matters had improved greatly during the past forty-eight hours and that the outlook was brighter.
 "But," said he, "what England and Russia 1 may agree to in regard to the Afghan bound ary line may not please the Ameer, and se-
 rious complications may yet arise. The question of the cession of Penjdeh is not set tied as yet. Certain demands made by En- gland, which she insists must be satisfied be- fore she will consent to the ceding of Penj-
 deh, may not be viewed in favorable light by my government. Still, I can frankly
 say that negotiations are proceeding favor
 ably"
 Dispatches from St. Petersburg say the latest advices from General KomaroH by the Russian war office contain the information that after the fight of March 30 on the Kushk river the Afghans evacuated Penjdeh and | fled in the direction of Herat, and that he
 has since been compelled to occupy Penjdeh
 in order to prevent the place from falling in to the hands of anarchists and pillagers who | had already begun to make incursions and | had routed and burned portions of the city. In both diplomatic and financial circles a
 great deal of significance is attached to the fact that Baron de Stael dined yesterday | with Baron Rothschild.. The inference is that Russia wishes to make a war loan, and | that Baron dc Stael was the bearer of an i'm portant financial proposition from the Czar | himself

 MONEY FOR LEGISLATORS, VOTES. Member of the ohio House
 Gives the Name of a Man Who
 Tried to Bribe Him.
 COLUMBUS, April 16.-The legislative com mittee appointed to investigate the difficulty between Allen o. Meyers and Judge Littler on the floor of the House some ten days ago had Mr Meyers before them to-day to an swer to the charges preferred that he had applied some opprobrious epithets to the legislature in general and to MT. Littler in particular. With regard to the alleged corruption in the senatorial contest MT. Myers admitted that he knew of none so far as other gentlemen were concerned. He had been approached by friends of MT. Pendleton and was offered consideration if he would vote for Mr. Pendleton. Upon being questioned further he said the man who approached him was Benjamin Robinson, member of the Cur vier club of Cincinnati, who was a candidate for customs surveyor against Senator Cald- well. MT. Meyers said Robinson first offered him $500 and afterwards $1 ,0O0 MT. Meyers made affidavit to this at the time, The com mittee thereupon dispatched an officer to Cincinnati to arrest Robinson and bring him to Columbus for an investigation. Ben Robinson was found at the Curvier club this afternoon by reporter and said: q never spoke to Allen O. Meyers in Colum- bus or any other place ou the senatorial question or any other question about money. I do not see how anybody could think of connecting my name with such matter. A man would be d-d fool to think of brib- | ing Allen o. Meyers, who is owned by John Mclean" MT. Robinson was of the opinion that the matter was sprung with the inten- tion of refecting on the Pendleton banquet tonight.
