Appointments BY the President-skstches
Of the New Judges. Their Salaries and
Terms.
WASHINGTON, June 1.-THE president

ing appointments:

BENSON GUILTY.
The jury Easily Reaches Verdict-The
Case Against Mrs. Rautzahn.

The jury Easily Reaches yerdict-The
Case Against Mrs. Rautzahn.
LEAvENwoRTH, Kan, June IL
Charles A. Benson, who has been on
trial for the murder of Mrs Mettman,
Is a condemned man. Immediately up
on the convening of court yesterday
morning the foreman of the jury an
nounced that verdict had been agreed
upon. The verdict was that of guilty
of murder in the first degree.
Benson seemed to care not at all. The
shadow of a great trouble was in his
eyes, and deepening lines attested the
consuming anxiety of days, but the
careworn look had marked his face for
days and this fateful elimination of
his trouble did not move him.
There was no disagreement whatever
among the jurors. Five minutes after
they retired Tuesday they were pre-
pared to return the verdict which they
rendered yesterday. The remotest
possibility of disagreement was ut
terly destroyed by the cross-examina-
ton of Benson. The man of many
names and deeds of blood himself
placed the loop about his neck. Hav-
ing been tried in the United States
court instead of the state court the
penalty in Benson's case is hanging and
not life Imprisonment.
What the disposition of the case
against Mrs. Mary Rautzahn will be is
not positively known, but to hear of a
dismissal in the case would neither be
surprising nor startling. There is prac-
tically no evidence in existence outside
of the statement made by herself con-
Meeting her in any way with the crime.

IN BAD ODOR
The Gambling and Other Bad Habits of the
Prince Of wales Raising n Storm In En-
gland.

The Gambling and other Bad Habits Of the
Prince OF wales Raising q Storm In En-
gland.
LONDON, June 13-The storm rising
around the prince Of Wales Is fast OBJ
tanning intensity, endangering his
chances of succession to the throne, il
not the existence of the English mon
srchy. None appear to be stirred so
deeply as the great middle class, the
real strength Of the country, and hith-
erto a solid and stolid prop of the mon
archy. Wherever it's voice becomes
audible its earnest denunciations of the
prince of Wales are accompanied by
regrets at his nearness to the throne.
Representative gatherings of religious
bodies - Congregational, Methodist,
Baptist, Unitarian and Presbyterian
have already recorded their condemna-
ton. Boards of guardians are going
out of their accustomed paths to discuss
motions branding the gambling pro-
pensities of the prince of Wales as a
disgrace to the country. Several lib
eral societies have adopted resolutions
against his continuance In the army.
The agitation has every character of
permauence. 1t has not yet touched
more than fringe of the political par
ties, but ere long the glowing tones of
the people must penetrate the core of
politics, causing party action within
and without parliament
The radical members of the house of
commons are opening the attack upon
the prince of Wales. but they have
been warned that Mr.. Gladstone re-
sents the movement and that the lead
ears of the opposition will actively
show their repugnance to associatiDg
liberalism with an agitation tending to
cast disgrace upon the crown.
Conferences have been held at the
war Office, attended by Mr.. Stanhope,
the duke of Cambridge, the duke of
Connaught, Gen. Redvers Butler and
Col. Tracey, and it is reported that they
decided that the prince of Wales, Gen.
Williams and Lieut. Levett had COM
mitted no offense agrinst military law,
but only technical breach of the reg
ulations. Mr. Stanhope, therefore,
basing Mondays response to the ques-
tions on the decision of the conference,
will probably declare that the com
mander in chief will deal with the case
privately without regard to regulations.
1t is understood the prince of Wales
is keenly stung at the adverse criti-
cisms which have been showered upon
him from all quarters. Especially is
this the case in regard to the newspa-
per comments which practically accuse
him of revealing the secret of the Tran
by Croft scandal and referring to the
fact that he was not asked If he had
spoken of the affair to anybody after
Sir William Gordon Cumming signed
the incriminating document while this
question was put to all the other wit
nesses for the defendants He emphat-
ically denies that he divulged the secret
to anybody.
