BOOTH NOT DEAD.
So Former ConfIdante Of Abraham
Lincoln's Slayer Says.

So Former ConfIdante Of Abraham
Lincoln's Slayer Says.
BIRMINGHAM, Ala, Special.-Louise
Worcester, at one time confdante of J.
Wilkes Booth, the assassin of Abraham
Lincoln, is credited with saying that Booth
is not dead. She declares that in 1867, two
years after Booths supposed death, she re-
ceived a letter without date or signature,
but Enthusiastically in Booths handwriting.
This letter, she says, is still in existence. AS
to the probabilities of the man shot by Bos-
ton Corbett being Wilkes Booth, she points
out that the body was closely guarded and
secretly buried without an opportunity
having been given for identification by any
of those intimately acquainted with him.
She believes that the man killed was one o,
the conspirators and that Booth made good
his escape, but that in the excited and clam
orous condition of the public mind it was
thought best by the authorities, if they
knew OF the deception, to allow it to pass
unchallenged, in order to allay the fever OF
excitement which the assassination had
aroused.

TOO MUCH RED TAPE.
An Over Abundance Badly Clogs
the Government Mac hinery.

An Over Abundance Badly Clogs
the Government Mac hinery.
WASHINGTON, Special Telegram,
State Auditor Braden of Minnesota is of
the opinion tonight that the red tape of
the government ties things up very tightly,
and that good deal Of energy is needed to
loosen it up so that the regular speed of the
machinery can be increased. On Saturday
morning last he talked with the officials of
the interior department about Minnesota
swamp lands, and got many promises that
reports and other documents would be at
once looked up and gotten together
so that they could discuss the issuing of
patents on large tracts with all data at hand.
Especial attention was to be given to the
Minnesota lands and some important ques-
tons settled. To-day Capt. Braden kept
his appointment, but found that in spite of
promises nothing had been done in the
case. Apparently nobody had given the
subject q thought after he left the depart
ment building Saturday, and SO tonight
the swamp land questions are no nearer a
settlement than ever. The state auditor,
however, will remain in the city some days
yet, and give his energies to getting what he
is after and the department will hear from
him again tomorrow.

DECLARED OFF,
Sudden Stop in the Southern Eek.
curSion of the Pan-Americans,

Sudden Stop in the Southern Ex-
cursion of the Pan-Americans.
WASHINGTON, Special. The secretary of
state to-day telegraphed Capt. Bourke, in
chargefof the special train that was carry
ing the Pan-Americans on their Southern
tour, to return to Washington from Rich
mond. This was done because so few of the
delegates desired to make the excursion.
Thirteen of the foreign delegates accepted
the invitation, but only two of them, Dr.
Martinez-Sylva of Colombia and DR.. Zegar-
ra of Peru left Washington with
the party. The others sent let
tiers of regret giving various reasons for
withdrawing their acceptance Some were
detained by important business, some were
called to New York by telegraph, others
had decided to sail at once for their homes,
and the rest were i'll or too tired to make
the journey. Several promised to join the
excursion at Richmond day, but were un-
able to do 3d. and the secretary of state de-
cided that the humber of those going would
not justify the expense of the journey The
foreign delegates have now been in this
country for seven months and some of them
even longer, and are anxious to return to
their homes as soon as possible. They are
grateful ior the hospitality extended to
them, and very much regret that they can
not accept it.

Parneli Speaks Against the Irish

LONDON, Special.-In the house of COM
mons to-day Mr.. Parnell moved that the
Irish land purchase bill be rejected by the
house. Mr.. Parnell declared that he could
not admit thatthe bill was q satisfactory
solution Of the land question The
experienced gained by the discussion of
Mr.. Gladstone's land bill in 1886 showed
that the taxpayer would not so far enough
to finally settle the land difficulty. He OBJ
Jected to the bill because it did not carry
out what it proposed, while it exhausted
the only Irish credit available. The bill is
parody on land purchase and swindle
on the English taxpayers. He continued
in an elaborate criticism of Mr..
Balfour's views, dealing with and
against the advantages which Mr.. Bal
four would accrue to landlords and tenants
under the bill. The measure was unwork-
able and would produce discord instead Of
content The debate was adjourned until
Thursday. The Parnellite members are di
vided on opposition on Mr. Parnel's mo-
ton and think complete explanation
necessary. The Daily News has sprung a
