the commissioner, thanking him on be-
half of tina association for what he had
done IN introducing and developing
the new diffusion process in
the manufacture of sugar from
the sugar cane Mr.. Dymond said that
planters conld no longer afford to continue
the old process of making sugar, and that
the new process was certain to supplant it,
He said that even the poorest of the sugar
planters would get out of their difficulties
much quicker by adopting the improve
ment which had been intI oduced by the
department of agriculture. This admis-
sion, coming from such source, is of I'M
usual significance in its relation to the
future sugar production of this country

An Unknown Assassin Murders a Woman
in Baltimore.

BALTIMORE, Jan S-A brutal murder
was committed today in the northern por-
ton of this city and the guilty person
walked away, leaving no trace behind
Mrs. Margaret Snyder, German woman
about GO years of age, recently moved into
the three story brick dwelling at No &,
West Fifth Street. But little was known
of her beyond the fact that two
women, presumably her daughters, lived
with her. About half past O'Clock
this afternoon the old lady came out the
front door and called to one of the men
employed at the engine house opposite
Her head was tied up with bloody cloth
and she was scarcely able to speak. An
examination revealed the fact that she had
been horribly beaten with some blunt
weapon and the skull fractured and left
ear almost severed from her head.
The house was in disorder, blood
was spattered over the bed
and floor of the second story
front room, was trailed over the carpet
and down the steps leading to the front
door. The woman was taken to the hos
pital and several times said in German
which sounded like II did it," She died at
O'Clock tonight.
One OF the women who lived in the
house is known as Mrs. Meyerhoff. She
and a boy, said to be her son, went sew
erai days ago to visit friends in Phila-
delphia. The whereabouts of the other
women are not known. A child saw a
woman leave by the back gate about an
hour before the crime was discovered. and
one OF the. neighbors heard sounds of a
struggle about O'Clock. Further than
this the affair is shrouded in mystery.
The house has not first class reputation.
Carriages frequently drove to the door late
at nig ht and an opium smoking clay
out" was found in one of the
rooms. 1t is believed that the murder
was committed by the woman and that
she changed her clothing before leaving,
as blood stained dress was found in the
back yard. The various bureau drawers
appeared to have been ransacked and the
crime may have been done for the purpose
of robbing the house. The police are at
work on the case, but do not appear TO
have much of clue.
