Sir John Macdonald, the Canadian
Premier, is dead. A requiem in his
honor was SING in Westminster Abb

THE MYSTERY EXPLAINED
Rev. w. ]. Franklin Missing for
Three Years Discovered
In Denver
He Left His Home on Account
of Domestic and Finan-
cial Difficulties
A Maryland Treasurer Short
SII,o 900 in His Accounts
and Skips Out

ASTORIA, Ore, March lS-Of the many
mysterious disappearances which have
caused sensation In the neighborhood OF
Astoria, there probably never was one
which raised the same excitement and
surprise as the ineXpIcable mystery sur
rounding the case Of Rev. w. j. Franklin,
OF Clatsop, who, as far as all his friends
could learn, dropped completely out of the
world nearly three years ago. One day he
wrote letter full Of terms of endear-
ment TO his wife at Clatsop and sent a
verbal message TO her expressing a regret
that he could not write more fully. The
next day he was among the missing and
his tate was as uncertain and unfathoma-
bic as the causes that led to his dsap-
pcarance.
He was supposed to have been foully
dealt with by some persons, who wished
him removed on account OF valuable
piece Of timber land he intended filing
upon. When last seen in this vicinity he
was In company with John r use, the CON
Ylcted murderer or the Fredericksons. and
many intlmlnatcd that the latter made
away with him. Every clue. whether il
indicated flight or foul play, was followed
but IN vain until a few days since, when
Chief Of Police Barry who has worked
continuously upon the case, located the
missing man In Denver, Col, and pro-
cured from him statement Of the rca-
! sons Tor his apparently senscleSs flight.
Some time ago a letter was received by
some one in the city asking where Mrs.
Franklin was, what she was dong and n
she mad a little adopted son. The letter
requested that an answer be sent Miss
Franklin, Denver. The letter fell into
the hands Of the chief II police. who
made a critically examination Of the ap-
parently well disguised hand writing.
Mr.. Franklin was an expert penman and
the peculiar formation Of many Of the
letters bore striking resemblance 10 HIS
chirography. A letter Of inquiry was
addessed to the chief Of police at Denver
and II was learned that Rev. W. j.
Franklin WIS living in that city. When
confronted, Franklin made a statement
Of the causes Of his disappearance. stat
Ing that be was insane from domestic and
financial difficulties and concluded fight
was the easiest way out Of them
Mrs. Franklin received the news Of her
husbands s whereabouts with no little
agitation, but without reproach for her
recreant spouse. She even expressed a
desire TO go him When questioned about
the disappearance, she said: I'VE were
living happily at ClatSOp and never had
any trouble or quarrelS bcyound the usual
domestic miSunderstandings He left me
with but s. In the house, and since he
lett me have made a living for myself

Should the Italian government decide to

pecuniary indemnity to the families Of the
slain would call for an amount not exceed

BERLIS, March Should NJ. Herbcttc
the French minister, aud Count Schuuya-
loft, the Russian ambassador, both be re-
called at an early date, as IL seems proba
Bile. the situation will give cause for grave
anxiety. Both Of these ambassadors are
friends OF peace, and Ilcrbette especially
has eXcrted himself 10 create pleasant
relations between France and Germany.
To this fact he owes the unpOpularlty
which the French government can no
longer ignore.
SchOuyalOf has never been a fayuritc
With the kaiser, perhaps because he was
a favOrite with Bismarck. On the other
hand he has always maintained himself In
way to avoid any friction between the
Two empires, and this ne has done success
fully. In the present temper of the French
ana German governments it would be-
easy for an impolltIc ambassador 90 bring
on a crisis.
One peculiar fact about SchOuyalon is
that he has such a large household, and
there are Berliners uukind enough 10 sug-
gest that the ladies Of the household make

New York, March 1s-The Newark
lodge Of Elks last night considered the
question Of the expulsion OF John l.. Sui

porter, assaulted hotel bell boy and
generally acted in a manner unbecoming
a good Elk

by the Newark lodge made Its report IL
reported that Harrison denied that Sulll-
van had ever kicked him. "As matter
Of fact said Mr.. Harrison, "the report
about Sullivan's assaults on me and the
bell boy were pure fabrications. As TO
the assault on the reporter there was no
violence The reporter was In great
hurry late at night TO get an interview,
and he forced his way into Sullivan's
rooms. Sullivan took him by the shoul-
der and led him out"
Harrison presented an affidavit which
was taken as evidence. The meeting was
secret, but IL Is understood the motion 20
expel Sullivan will not be sustained.
