ROSE ZOLDoSkpS CASE.

The Young wisconsin MiIliner on Trial
for the Murder of Her Rival In Love.
LANCASTER, Wis, June 13.-The trial
of Rose Zoldoski, for the murder of Ella
Maly, by administering poison, has up
to date been the scene of very interest
ing testimony. 1t has been shown
clearly that Rose was in love with DIR.
Mitchell, but proof is not so strong that
it was sls who got Mrs. Mitchell ont of
the way by means of poison. DR.. Lud-
wigs testimony was particularly inter-
esting. He gave rs his opinion at the
conclusion OF the autopsy that Ella
Maly died of nrinic troubles. James
Stewart, David Davis and d. L. Con-
stantine, three Richland Center store
keepers, each testified tina: on the day
before Ella Maly died they sold choco-
late creams to Rose Zoldoski. The
theory OF the prosecution is that Miss
Maley was poisoned by stxychnine in
chocolate creams. Lille Maay testified
that at the party the night before her
sisters death Rose gave them each some
candy. Ella ate some of the candy on
the street as they walked home. The
distance they had to go was eight blocks.
When turning the corner within two
blocks OF home Ella complained of queer
feelings in her knees. In minute or
two she said it was going further up,
and then that it was going all through
her, and she could not walk. Within
twenty rods of home, she fell in the
snow.

United States Will See to It That
Venezuelan Territory Is Not
Encreached Upon.
A Great American River Like the
Oronoco Must Not BE Controlled
by the British.
Such Assurance Given the Venezuela
Representative by Blaine
Recently.

WASHINGTON, June 13.-The Post
prints another of its series of articles on
foreign affairs, relating principally to
the attitude of the United States in the
matter of the dispute between Great
Britain and Venezuela. Referring to
previous publications in that line The
Post asserts positively that its utter
ances We're based upon authentic infor-
nation, and says the articles have been
a fruitful theme of discussion in the
diplomatic corps The Posts article, in
speaking of the visit of the Venezuelan
Commander Pulido to Mr.. Blaine, says:
The Post is now enabled to state
Positively and UneqaivocalIy
that when DR.. Lucio Pulido, the Vene-
zuelan commander who recently visited
London in the vain hope of settling the
dispute, called upon Secretary Blaine
In this city, he received from that gen.
tleman assurances even more substan-
tial In their character than those previ-
ously limited at in these columns.
Secretary Blaine expressed to DIR. Pulido
the deep interest which the United
States felt in the settlement of this
boundary question. In this declaration
the secretary simply followed in the
footsteps of his predecessors. But he
went further. He said to DIR. Pulido
that the interest thus felt was partly
due to the friendly feeling of this
country toward Venezuela. Para
mount to this, he added significantly.

questioned by experienced diplomats,
but DR.. Pulido has taken the RESPONSE

correctness Of the conversation IN re-
port made over his own signature.

CAUSED NO PANIC.
Absurdity of the InsPectors' Reason 70
Not Posting Damaged wheat shown.

Absurdity OF the Inspectors Reason for
Not Posting Damaged wheat shown.
ST. PAUL, June 13.-There was no
session of the wheat investigation COM
mittee in the forenoon. AT Q D. m.
Charles Canning was called to the
stand again, and the examination was
continued by Attorney Severance. Mr..
Canning was asked if, in his opinion.
the posting of 800, 900 bushels of wheat
that was damaged in Duluth would be
without effect in the Eastern market.
He did not believe that the posting of
800, 700 bushels would materially affect
the market. Some confidence might
have been lost in the No. 2 and No, 3
northern grades. but it would not have
affected the others. Eastern buyers
were sbrewd enough to distinguish be-
tween grades and would understand
that only q certain amount of the crop
had been damaged.
"What is the greater cause of panicPn
asked Mr.. Erwin, the knowledge that the
law regarding posting of grain has been
broken and that the inspection depart
ment has winked at its violation or that
there was a0, 900 bushels of spoiled wheat
ON the mafketsn
"The bfeaking of the law would II
known, be the greater cause
Mr.. Erwin continued to question the
witness IN way to show that the ex-
cuse for uon- posting offered by the in
spection department, that they were
afraid II would create panic, was SIM
ply lame effort to show cause for hav-
ing totally disregarded the law provid-
ing for the posting of wheat.
When asked whether, of his own
knowledge, he was aware of the exist
ence OF Il combine in the regulating
prices for wheat, Mr.. Canning replied
that he believed such combine ex-
listed.
The witness was asked by Mr.. Sever
ance whether he had heard of any panic
in the wheat market lately. He replied
that he had not.
did YOU not say just now that the fail
ure TO post damaged wheat would be more
liable TO panic the market than the knowl-
edge that the wheat was spoiled sn
Well, have not the facts of the case
been widely published lately, and have
you obserled any panic as result of the
publication"
mo SIR
Mr.. Severance still had the witness
when the time came for adjournment.

ing down the mountain from Lloyds-
vile to Bellwood. on the Pennsylvania

ST. PAUL, June f3.-Two more cases
OF smallpox among the employees of the
Merchants hotel where the bell boy
Walter Dawkins worked have been dis
covered by Health Commissioner Hoyt

health. The afflicted ones are Casper
Peter, manager of the billiard room,
and Mary Brinston, a chambermaid,
both white. Between and 10 o'clock
p. M, Officer Sinks, assisted by other
members of the department, removed
the sufferers to the hospital for conta-
gious diseases, where young Dawkins
was placed the night before.
Casper Peter was taken to his bed
some days ago. and the physician who
was called in pronounced it case of
liver trouble. The patient broke out
two or three days ago, and yet the
medical man saw nothing alarming
about his disorder. Fortunately Pet
ter's sleeping room is on the top floor of
the hotel and he has no roommate. 1t

Eleven Girls Exposed.
Mary Brinston was taken to her bed
three or four days ago, and different
physician from the one attending Peter
was called. The doctors fears were
aroused from the start; but as smallpox
was not reported from any quarter of
the country and not prevailed in st.
Paul for three years, he was loath to be-
heve this a case. The girl informed
DIR. Millard that she began
to break out ON Monday. How
ever, her physician did not become con-
vinced that it was smallpox until Thurs
day morning, when he reported to DR..
Hoyt She occupied bed in o large
room on the top floor which served as
the sleeping room of herself and eleven
other chambermaids. The eleven girls
were, of course, exposed.
