II. McVicker of Chicago was the Juliet of the
play. Booth married her June z. 1869. She
DIED IN New York In 1881. leaving no chill
dren.
Booths theater had a career of thirteen
years and was the scene OF the greatest
dramatic pageants and Of the appearance of
some OF the most renowned actors of the age.
In May, Ss2, the house was closed, Madame
ModJeska being the last to appear in it. 1t
was torn down and stores were built upon its
size. boOth gave up its management in 1S74,
as he had lost heavily and was bankrupt.
he began again, paid his debts and earned
another fortune. In 1876 he made a tour of
the South that was phenomenal for the en-
thus1asm OF the peope-it was a trlumphal
progress. In san Francisco, at the end of
that season, he played for eight weeks to
5000 OF business, unprecedented receipts
to that time.
In 1850, and again in 1882, he revisited
Germany and was received with extraordi-
nary enthusiasm. In 1883 he returned to
MS home and resumed his starring tours. In
iAter years he has twice played engagements
in sacramento.
His sudden illness while on the stage at
Bunalo, N. Y, not long ago, his retirement
for some months, his reappearance and his
bodily weakness and mental gloom, due to
the sorrows of his lie and the intense strain
upon his nerve force, are matters familiar to
all our readers. There Is no need at this time
to remark upon Edwin Booths place in his
tory. 1t must suffice to say that he was
Americas greatest actor and by his genius
added unfading luster to the American name.

that he abstracted the entire sum which
he is accused of embezzling. He said he
had given 370,0 900 lire to the Cashier to-

ANTITRUST CONVENTION.

Extremists, dissatisfied With the Pro-
ceedings, Bolt the Meeting.
CHICAGO, June 6. When Governor
Nelson of Minnesota called the Anti
Trust Convention to order it was ex-
pected that the first fight of the session
would begin, for it was generally known
that Donnelly, or the radical faction, had
been beaten in the Committee on Resolu-
floor of the convention.
Chairman Rosewater of the Committee
on Resolutions no sooner read the pre-
amble than DOnnelly moved as a substi-
tute demand that the Government pur-
C ase the anthracite coal lands.
Henry D. Lloyd Of Chicago wanted
bituminous lands also purchased, and the
fight on those two amendments lasted
two hours, after which Rosewater moved
the previous question, and the committee
report was carried.
The fight was kept up all day, how
ever, by the extremists, but they were
outvoted at every turn.
The resolutions set forth at length the
evils of the trust system as at present
maintained, and cali upon the conven-
ton to create permanent association, to
be known as the Antitrust Association
of the United States, consisting Of three
representatives from each State and Ter
ritory. Also an organization Of the Anti
Trust Association in securing uniform
legislation and a rigid execution of the
laws.
Resolutions declare that the over-capi-
talization of corporate property is largely
responsible for the breaking down of
credits and the financial distress now
prevailing, and recommend stringent
national and State legislation and SUI
pervision to the limit of bonding corpor-
ate property and issue of stocks repre-
senting the same to their actual value.
1t is recommended that each member of
the convention use all honorable means
to secure the election to Office, whether
local, State or Federal of those only who
are opponents of this antitrust senti-
ment. 1t is recommended also that the
Legislatures of the various States enact
such legislation as will make it unlaw-
full for any corporation to enter into any
trust or combination detrimental to trade
and commerce and injurious to public
welfare.
The resolutions were not radical enough
to suit the DonnellyW Weaver element,
and they gave notice of another meeting
at the Palmer House tonight.
Before the close of the Central Hall
meeting J. NJ. Quinn Of Butte, Mont, a
miner, offered free-coinage resolution,
which was passed by a small majority.

Los ANGELES, June Ga horrible
tragedy was enacted in Chinatown this
morning. Guam All Moon, highlander,
ran dirk-knife eight inches long through
Sue How, Chinese cyprian, and shot
Wong All Sip twice through the lungs.
The woman is dead and the man is not
expected to live many hours. Sue How
was a pretty Chinese girl. the property of
Tom Bin. Guam All Moon was with her
last night.
At 5:45 this morning she was heard to
scream for assistance. Wong All Sip, a
member OF the Wong Chez Company
and docile Chinaman, went to the door
of the place whence the screams ema-
mated. He pushed it open and saw Quan
An Moon in the act of pulling out big
knife from the body of the woman.
When Guam All Moon saw Wong All Sip
he pulled out Colts revolver and fired
two shots at him. One shot went through
the lungs and the other lodged in the left
breast. Immediately after the firing
Guam All Moon disappeared and has not
yet been found, although the police have
searched everywhere.
The woman lived until 9:45. Wong All
Sip is slowly sinking. There is great ex-
element in Chinatown, and there are
prospects of more bloodshed.

CHICAGO, June 6.-Eulalie, the modest
little Princess of Spain's royal house, is
in Chicago. She came to-day, and thou
sands of people from every State in the
Union, and almost every country on the
face OF the earth, were at the train eager
to see her and give her welcome to truly
democratic city.
AS she disembarked at the Union depot,
in Canal street, Mayor Harrison received
her as one of Chicago's Worlds Fair
guests, and extended to her the hospital
ity of the city. Formally was mini
mixed. When presented to the Princess,
Mayor Harrison, like a true Kentucky
gentleman, kissed her hand. In rapid
succession others of the Reception Com
mittee were presented; and then Prince
Antonio, husband of the Inlanta, the
Duke of Tamames and the remainder of
the suit followed, and the handshakings
became general.
Then the Princess was escorted by
Mayor Harrison to a carriage in waiting,
and the remainder of the party being
quickly seated in their respective con-
veyances, the procession started on a
quick trot, escorted by two troops of
United States cavalry, over bridge and
down town to the Palmer House. Here,
as at the depot, there was large and
enthusiastic crowd waiting, and the
Princess was greeted with loud cheers.
The portico of the hotel, as well as the
rotunda, was gaily decorated with Span
ish and American colors.
AS the Princess entered the hotel she
bowed smilingly to the vociferous crowd
which extended for several hundred feet
on both sides of the lines of the yellow
plumed cavalrymen, who gave them no
chance to break in upon the entrance as
they would have liked. The Princess
and suite quickly disappeared in the
hotel, and the crowd dispersed.
The Committee on Ceremonies at the
Worlds Fair held lengthy session to-
day, and arranged an elaborate pro-
gramme for the reception of the Infanta
on Thursday. She was to-day presented
the fair, handsomely engraved on gold
plate, with the signatures of President
Palmer of the Worlds Columbian Com
mission, II. n. Higinbotham, President
of the Worlds Columbian Exposition,
and Director-General George r. Davis.
The weather to-day was beautiful, and
about 10000 people visited the Worlds
Fair.
German day at the fair has been set for
June 10Th, and arrangements were pro-
vided for grand parade with 10000 men
in line. Trouble has arisen, however,
over the fact that the date in question is
the anniversary Of Emperor Williams
accession, and the Turner's of Chicago,
almost to a man, state emphatically that
they will not participate in the exercises,
if nv so doing thew are nut in the nosi'
ton of indorsing Emperor Williams

RUSSIAN EXTRACTION TREATY.
1T Is AT LAST MADE THE LAW OF
THE LAND.
Official Proclamation Issued by the
President-It Goes Into Effect
on June 9th.


Special to the RECORD-UNION.
WASHINGTON. June 6.-The Russian
extradition treaty, which has been the
subject of negotiation between the two
contracting parties more than six years,
which had been amended again and
again, and which was threatened with
defeat in the final stages, has at last been
formally proclaimed, and will henceforth
be the law of the land until it is super
seeded by another treaty.
The Publications were exchanged in
st. Petersburg nearly two months ago,
but because it was necessary to observe
extraordinary precautions and secure the
safe transmission of the document to the
United States the treaty was not re-
ceived at the department until late day
last week. The treaty was in the French
language, and it was necessary to trans
late the document into English and make
a very careful comparison between the
translation and original. This work was
completed yesterday, and to-day the
President saw it for the first time, when
Secretary Gresham carried it to the Cab
met meeting.
All that remained to be done was an
official proclamation, and that was done
this afternoon. The proclamation itself
was dated yesterday, and simply recited
the provisions of the treaty, with the an
nouncement that it go into effect twenty
days from date, that is to say, June oath,
Interest conferred on the sections max
ing attempts upon the heads of Govern
ments, or accessoryship to such attempts,
extraditable. These sections in the treaty.
as officially promulgated, are precisely
identical in language with the sections
published in the Washington dispatches
to the Associated Press on April I'D
last.
1t is asserted in official quarters that in
spite OF all that has been said about the
treaty. it is similar in scope to all extra
dition treaties negotiated by the United
States in recent years, although in prac-
tice it may be that the administration of
its articles will have different result, in
view of the essential difference between
the judicial systems of the two countries,
which in this case are supposed to be
more than usually divergent.
The record-union., 1893-06-07

Thanks, in large measure, to the BIZ
cyclists, who do not injure good roads
ami enjoy them very much, the agitation
of the great and universal question of
improving the public highways goes on
tireleSsly, and, we think with growing
strength. One of the most vital phases
of this question, however, receives less
attention, generally speaking, than it
merits. This is the widening of the tires
used on vehicles designed to carry heavy
loads. In Cleveland the most pressing
need of all is the substitution of tires
which roll roads and preserve and
smooth them for such as cut the best of
highways to pieces, swiftly and surely.
In France, country of model roads. not
only are the tires of draft wagons
wide, but the hind wheels are set wider
apart than the front 80 that the inner
edge of the second track just laps the
outer line of the forward wheel Thus a
wagon with tires four inches wide rolls
down at least seven inches wide on each
side, or some fourteen inches altogether
Compared with such use of a roadway
the American habit OF hauling a heavy
load on wheels set in the same line and
with tires not more than two inches wide
is evidently an abuse which would ruin
the best of country roads. and the OBJ
servant resident of Cleveland knows that
it destroys city pavements. 1t is sheer
folly to permit the owners of heavy We
hicles To continue to misuse highways
maintained at the expense of the whole
community, and it is high time that as a
first great step toward obtaining good
roads Ohio should follow the sensible
example of Massachusetts and pass a law
strong enough to force the placing of
proper tires on all draft wagons.-Cleve-

Gold Reserve to be Used to Meet De-

WASHINGTON, June 6.-The Star says:
President Cleveland's statement as to the
time when he proposed to call Congress
together, and the reasons which will lead
him to do SO, is clearly interpretable as
indicating a determination on his part to
continue using the gold reserve to the ex-
tent necessary, and not issue bonds. He
desires the full gravity of the situation to
be apparent at the time of the meeting of
Congress, so that the legislative branch of
the Government shall have the duty
pressing upon them to correct the laws
protecting finances.
To-day the Treasury Department gained
nearly Sl,OO0,O0O in gold, offsetting the
amount taken yesterday for shipment
