She Was Undecided in the Choice of =.
Husband. Finally Married the Wrong
Man, and Ended Her Life with Poison.
MILWAUKEE, Wis. April 2S.--Mrs.
Amelia Lindner, a wife of four months,
and only 10 years old, died last evening
at her home from a dose of oxalic acid,
taken with suicidal intent. She was
married in December but up to within
few days of her marriage she was unde-
cided in the choice of husband, Lind
ner having rival in n resident at
Woodland, which was also the girls
home.
Shortly after her marriage she re-
turned on visit to her parents and
there met her rejec ed lover. He wrote
to her after her return to Milwaukee,
and she again visited Woodland. Re-
turning Friday she purchased ten
cents worth of oxalic acid, securing it
on the pretcnse of wanting TO clean
some clothing. When her husband re-
turned home he found all the doors
locked. Entering through u window,
he found his wife lying unconscious on
the floor while beside her lay her we'd
ding dress. She fingered until last

OFFICIAL DECISION.

Wanted as to Whether Tubercle of the
Lungs is q Contagious Disease.
WASHINGTON, April 2s.-The treasury
department has been called upon to de-
eide case upon which medical men
disagree, and that is, whether incipient
tubercle of the lungs is a contagious
disease. Superintendent Webber at
New York has decided that it is, basing
his opinion on that of DIR. Godfrey, of
the marine hospital service.
From this decision an appeal has been
made to Secretary Foster by the attor-
ney of Leopoldo Mazzei, who was re-
fused admission by Superintendent
Webber on the ground that he had in
cipient tubcrclc of the lungs Mazzeis
counsel encloses a certificate from a
prominent New York physician who
certifies that Mazzei is not suffering
from contagious disease and is there
fore, other requirements of the immi-
grafton law being complied with, en-
titled to enter the United States.
Secretary Foster is brushing up his
medical knowledge preparatory to de-
Gliding officially whether incipient tu-
bercle of the lungs is a contagious dis

IMPRESSIVE CEREMONIES

At tho Funeral of tho Lnto Count You
Moltke In Berlin--Tho CnslSet Covered
With Flowers From All Parts of tho
German Empire.
BERLIN, April 29.-The funeral serv-
ices over the remains of Field Marshal
Count Won MoltlSe took place at IL
o'clock yesterday morning in the ball
room of the general staff building in
which the veteran died and where the
body has been lying in state. Emperor
William, the king of Saxony, the grand
dukes of Baden, Saxe-Weimar and
Hesse, the principal members of the
royal families of Germany, together
with the leading German generals, were
present. The services lasted forty-five
minutes.
Outside the building stood magnih-
cent hearse, to which were attached six
of the emperor's horses. When the
coffin had been carried out on the shoul-
ders of the pall-bearers it was reverent-
ly placed within the hearse and without
loss of time the procession fell in, by
order of rank, and promptly moved to-
ward the Lehrte railway station.
The hearse was preceded by one car
riage containing Col. Won Gossler, aide
de camp on the staff of Count Walder-
see. Col. Won Gossler bore with him the
field marshal S baton of the dead soldier.
The officers of the general staff carry
ing the insignia of the late field mar
shals various orders followed. Then
came the kaiser and the members of the
royal family. .a.
Carriages filed with members of the
diplomatic corps and men prominent in
the civil and military life of the nation
passed along in succession, but the peo-
pie looked in vain for the familiar form
of Prince Bismarck. He had tele-
graphed his regrets that illness COM
PEELED him to remain away. So, amidst
lines of troops presenting arms, crowds
of people, many standing bareheaded
and saluted by the rolling of mutiled
drums, the booming of guns and the
tolling of bells, the tlower-covered cas-
lSet was borne to the train which was
waiting to convey it to the place of un-
oretentious interment at Creisau.

In the Plenty Horses Casc-Indians Sub
ject to Laws Made by Cong ress.
ST. PAUL, Mimi, April 29.-A Sioux
Falls, S. D., special says: Judges Shires
and Edgerton in the United States court
rendered a decision upon the question
raised by the defense in the Plenty
Horses case, in which they disputed the
jurisdiction of the court for the reason
that war existed between the govern
ment and some Indians when the kill
ing of Lieut.. Casey took place.
The court denied that the Indians had
n right to go to war, and affirmed that
they were not separate nation, but
upon the same level rs Americans, sub
iect to laws made in Congress. The de-
fense devoted the day to the presenta-
tion of evidence upon their theory that
there was belligcrent condition of af-
fairs and that the killing of Casey was
an act in consequence of such condition.

SURPLUS DISAPPEARED.
Discovery Made by New York Bank Of
Loss OF @320,oOo.

Loss OF @320,oOo.
New YORK, April 29,-Rumors were
,lfloat in Wall street yesterday after
noon of defalcation in the Ninth ma
tional bank, which does business at 400
Broadway. 1t was said that the sur
plus of $320,00O had entirely disap-
peared, and that the discovery was made
through the death of some one who had
held n position of trust.
A visit to the bank found the directors
in session. Soon after Bank Examiner
Hepburn arrived and was closeted with
them. The directors were still in ses-
sion at late hour and nothing official
could be learned, but it was said that
the loss was through the operations of
J. Il. Hill, the late president of the
bank, who died about a month ago. 1t
was alleged that the amount is about
$780, 900, but that the bank would not
lose it all, being secured in part by real
estate. 1t was reported that the solv-
ency of the bank was in no way i'm
paired. The banks capital is $3.50, 900.
