Of the military organizations whose duty 10
is to attend the pope and to be present at
the great religious functions at the vaticau.
Early this morning q boy passing the
PslsZzo Altieri saw q mass Of what he at first
thought was mortar lying upon the steps
Of the palace. With boyish curiosity be
ran up tine steps and was surprised to sea
burning fuse extending from the mass TIE
boy at once stamped out the fuse with his
feet. and then notified the police. Gem
darmes were at once sent TO the palace and
were not long in asoortsining that wnat the
boy had at first mistaken for mass Of
mortar was a powerful bomb containing
dynamite or other high explosive The
bomb was incased in a thick coating Of

peris, would have added TO tho destruction
that would have been wrought had an ex-
plosion occurred.

enoe between the officers of the mariae hos
pitsl service and the maritime quarantine
officers Of the Atlantic and Gulf coasts has
adjourned after having virtually agreed
upon a uniform code Of quarantine regula-

tain regulations as TO disinfection and other
matters will operate to modify this period,
and will leave more or less discretionary
power in the officers administering the law.
The period of detention for yellow fever
has not yet been definitely determined, the
conference leaving this and some other mat
ters in the hands Of the government Of

ATLANTA GA, March ls.-A. L.
Kendall, manager of the millinary estab-

the most extensive in the city, committed
suicide at O'Clock tonight by shooting
himself through the head. His l3-year-old
son was In the room with his father az the

was heard by other persons in the building
TO beg him not to kill himself, crying
piteously. Don't, father; don't shoot your
self, father dear" Kendsll's wife was also
but a few yards of, being in
AL adjoining room preparing tea,
the door between the two rooms

daughter of Mr.. Craudall, had just returned
home after an absence Of several months in
Michigan, where her relatives live. She
arrived in Atlanta late this afternoon and
her homecoming kiss was still warm on
her husbands lips when he put the fatal
pistol to his head. Kendall had been under
treatment at the Keely institute and was a
few days ago discharged as completely
cured Of the whisky habit. His wife then
started on her return home.
FAILED TO GET A TELEGRAM.
Several kilograms we're passed between

arrive tonight. All the afternoon the anx-

inquire. None came, however, but he met
all the trains upon which he thought it
probable that his wife would come. When
she did not arrive it is presumed that Ken

he finally reached his homa on Whitehall

future which stared him in the face as a
slave Of whisky and morphine nerved MIN
to put an end TO the struggle by taking his
life. The wife, whose homo coming was so
sad, must have reproached her husband for
his weakness, for he was heard to speak in
loud tones a few minutes before the pistol
was fred. The meeting Of the two oc-

Alnea Mennemaoher Of Milwaukee were

Each wore marriage ring bsaring that

wealthy. Miller was poor and the girls
parents opposed the match. A
report is prevalent that Miller was seen On
the streets Of PaSs Christian Saturday
morning, which. added to the fact Of bis
body being In better state of preservation
than that of Miss Mennemacher, gives rise

The Republicans Prepared to Resist
reorganization.
WASHINGTON, March 18.-Although the
democrats assert that they have not decided
to attempt a reorganization Of the elective
officers at this session Of the Senate. the re-
publioans seem to think an effort of this
kind will be made, and are preparing to
resist it. A prominent republican leader
stated to-day that the members
of his ssside of the chamber
had been discussing the situation and would
organize a solid opposition. He also cited
the fact that all the precedents were on
their side, and intimated that in the debate
that would certainly follow an attempt to
reorganize the republicans would make
some pertinent quotations from the Con-
qreSsi0ndL Record. When asked what
prospect there was of success ne replied that
the opposition in the past had been success
full, and that it would be none the less go
this time.

TRIBUTES TOLAMAR.
The Bar of the Supreme Court Passes
Resolutions.


Resolutions.
WASHINGTON, March IS.-A largely at
tended meeting Of the bar Of the United
States supreme court was held IN the court
room this afternoon for the purpose Of ex-
pressing the regret OF the bar at the death
of the late Justice Lamar. Senator Villas
presided. Senators George. Walthsu and
Mitchell OF Oregon, Representatives
Catchings and John Randolph Tucker
Through his son Representative Tucker Of
Nrglnla,) delivered euiogies. Among others
present were Attorney General Olney, SEN
ator Hoar. Representatives Allen and
Hooker, Gen. John G. Black, Solicitor Gen.
eraI AldriCh, ex-senator Henderson of Mis-
souri,, W. E. Earle, W. H. Phillips and J.
c. Bancroft Davis.
The following tribute presented by SEN
ator George was adopted:
Resoiusd That by the death OF Mr.. Justice
Lamar the country loses judge whose career
on the bench, though brief, showed that he had
a rare Judicial mind and temperament with
great power OF legal analysis and faculty Of ex-
pressing himself in English. which left
no room for misunderstanding, His long Serv-
ice in public life fitted him to deal with the
great questions of constitutional law which
make seat upon the bench of the supreme
court so important and SO responsible He en-
tered early into the public service, and soon be-
came prominent. When the war closed no one
was more conspicuous than he in the efforts to
allay distrust, to do away with division and
coldness and to produce throughout the union
feeling of confidence and good will. For this
he labored and spoke in the Senate, and with
this ever before his eyes he administered the
department of the interior. We offer this trb
ute to his memory with no wish to perform a
mere perfunctory DUTY. Over and above his in
tellect, his trained faculties and his knowledge,
his wit and his power he was an affectionats
loving and lOvable man, dear to all who knew
DlTn. tie Is mOuTDnH not only bV his frpn1g
but by many who had no personal acquaintance
with him.
