BERLIN, Nov. 24.-The emperor, after
opening the relchstag, left for Letzlinger
on shooting excursion with the Duke
of Aosta and Archduke Ferdi-
nand. The party returned to-
day. The Duchess of Aosta was
warmly received by the empress.
The imperial family is now located for
the winter season in the old SchloSS, Oc-
cupying suite of rooms on the first
and second floors, looking on the Schioss
platZ. The emperor suddenly decided a
which was deserted as a town
residence during the reign of
his grandfather. The sudden orders
to refurnish the Schloss, regardless of
cost, quickened the business of num-
Der of Dresden, Hamburg and Berlin
firms. The decorations were completed
with magical rapidity, the expenditure
of O,000 marks, resulting in the most
magnificent rooms in the empire.
The dining and drawing rooms are
draped with Gobelins tapestry, and
have richly gilt ceilings. The walls of
the emperor's working Office are COW
cred with embossed leather with floral
hand-paintings. A number of selected
paintings are placed about the room.
An electric light, softened by shaded
glass illuminates the whole. The re-
newal of the apartments was done
under the emperor's instructions. The
existing art resources of the Schloss
have not been touched. In the new
suites everything is new.

PEACE AT ANY COST.
That Will Be the Policy of Young
Emperor William.

BERLIN, Nov. 24.-The reichstag will
reassemble Tuesday, when business
will open with discussion of the
budget and the loan for the construc
tion of the navy. The speech from the
throne continues to fill the public
mind. An exaggerated optimism re-
garding abiding peace replaces the pes
simistic forebOdingS current prior to the
delivery of the speech. The speech is
undoubtedly as pacific as the forecast
given last week, but it is mis-
interpreted If endowed with the
character of being an absolute as
surance of peace. The most significant
passage in the paragraph referring to
foreign relations was the emperor'S
declaration that his aim was-''frieden
und wohlfart zu zichern SOVIET dies Won
unsern willen abhangt." There is here
nothing beyond a protest that SO far as
it depends upon the emperor, his policy
will be pacific. The concluding SEN
.tence, referring to the confidence
shown IN his majesty during his tour as
justifying the hope of being able, with
Gods help, to maintain the peace of
Europe, has been read as indicating
promise that the cZar, besides the allied
monarchs, will assist in preserving the
peace. 1t is officially known that the
emperor did not intend to convey an
impression other than that he and his
allies earnestly desired to avoid war.

however, and Princeton did not lack for
cheering when its players gained
temporary advantage. Bull, the

Rev. Lemay from the church building
in that village, took place yesterday be-
fore Justice Howde and jury. Dep
uty Sheriff Rasicot, of this city, armed
with search warrant, went to Belle
Prairie Nov. 20 and found the property
of Rev. Lemay in the convent near the
church. 1t was claimed that said prop
erty was removed from the church by
mistake, together with altar furniture
and other property. The charge OK

rendered verdict of not guilty. But
the end is not yet, as rumOr has 1t
that Rev. Pyette will be again arrested
on another charge in connection with
the affair. Rev. Lemay has had possess
sion of the church since April 4. 1885,
and claims that he should hold 1t until
the appeal is decided by the holy
father at the Vatican. Rev. Lemay and

: HELENA, Mont, Nov. 24.-In the
early part Of the present week the pro-
bate clerk was instructed by W. l.. Mil
Logan, eX-county commissioner and a
resident of the Prickley Pear valley, not
to issue a marriage license to Miss
Hattie Millegan, his daughter, as
she was not yet eighteen years of
age. The sequel to this prudent
measure of the judiciouS parent
was an elOpement. Next day after Mil
Logan gave this notice application was
made at the probate court for mar
riage license for Robert McCullom and
Hattie Millegan. The application hav-
ing been forestalled by the fathers die
tum, 1t was promptly refused. The
court, however, was informed that the
refusal would do no good, as the lovers
were bound to get married whether
school kept or not. Miss Hattie had
been visiting in Helena for
two weeks past at the house of Mr..
Bowers. Last Thursday Millegan
called on his daughter. and made ar
rangements to take her back home yes
tOiudy. ~ ySotSIutJ ihiOAifLiiSs liOh-

ers' house, told the inmates he was
going to take Miss Hattie out to BOul-

umph in hack. When Millegan ar
rived yesterday to take his daughter
home he found that the bird had
flown. He wanted to take steps to ar
rest McCullom for abduction, but found
he could not do so. as the girl had gone
with him of her own free will. He then
telegraphed to Butte and various other
points, but got no trace OF the lovers,
who had evidently made good their es-
cape, and probably before this have
been legally joined in wedlOck.
parties to this romantic episode are well
known in Helena. McCuHom is mid
dle-aged man who has been working
farm adjoining Millegan's under lease.
The girl, Miss Hattie Millegan, is
buxom young woman seventeen years
old, and is described as veritable rus
tic beauty. Both have many friends in
Helena. McCullom, as may we'll be
imagined, is disliked by Mr.. Millegan,
who says he is forty years old and no fit
match for his daughter. The father,
however, returned to his rancho yester-
day afternoon, and it is thought that he
has given up all idea of pursuing the
couple.

PANAMA, Nov. 24.-Senor Piedrahita,

ment appointed a committee of experts
to examine into the merits of the ma
chine. In their first report they say:
"On the 18th of October we proceeded
outside the city and placed the new ap-
paratus in connection with the tele-
graph to the city, and without battery
we held communication with the main
Office. On Oct. 16 we practiced another
test, and sent messages over wire 600
meters long, which was hung on posts
without insulatorS. and some portions
of which were allowed to trail along the
ground. Once when our machine was
in order we sent messages over this
wire in Spanish, French and English,
and they we're received without diff
Guilty. The strength of the current re-
ceiyed from us was tested, and it.
showed density of 400 0hmS. equal to
distance of seven and One-half leagues,
and over this range we could have com
municated had our wire stretched that
distance" The government OF Colum-
bia proposes to construct extensive tel
egraph lines in all directions, and for
constructing some of which they are
now calling for tenders to be sent in up

REDWOOD FALLS, Mimi, Nov. a.
The peaceful village of Redwood Falls
was startled early this morning by the
report that a man had been murdered in
cold blood during the night. A party
of young people returning from dance
at Delhi saw what they supposed to be
a drunken man lying by the roadside in
one of the principal streets. On in
yestigating they were Mortified to find
that the man was dead and with bull
let hole through his head. The mur-
dered mans name was Frank Dodge,
barber from Morton, Renville county.
Last evening he drove to Redwood Falls
with his cousin, the latter intending to
take the Northwestern train for Roches-
ter this morning. The cousin retired at
the Exchange hotel soon after 8 o'clock,
and was seen in saloon between 10 and
II O'Clock. When or where he was
killed is unknown. Death was caused
by bullet from a 32-calibre revolver
entering the head at the middle of the
base of the skull and lodging in the
brain. When found the body was lying
face downward, the. face being in
small pool of blood. Fresh wagon tracks
we're discovered near the corpse, and
this with other signs indicates that
Dodge was shot and conveyed In a
wagon to the spot where his body was
found and dumped out. A watch was
found on the body but no money. Sev-
eral persons have been under surveil-
lance to-day, but there is scarcely any
clue to follow up. All that is definitely
known is that Dodge had paid attention
to waitress at the Exchange hotel
some time since. 1t is thought that
there is some woman at the bottom of
the tragedy. The inquest is in progress.
Deceased was about twenty-five years
old and unmarried.

derer is as erroneous asitis unjust. AZ
though martinez and rigid stickier
for discipline, Gen. Warren has been

Matthews has shirked the responsibility
belonging to his position and insisted
upon Warren's obeying the suggestions
of favored subordinates. Gen. Warren
throughout the whole matter has acted
