CHICAGO, May l5.-The third week of
the Worlds Fair opened under much
more favorable circumstances than the
first. There were only few clouds in
the sky in the morning and, though a
sharp wind blew out of the north. the
temperature rose with the sun, and be-
fore noon sightseers were willing to
throw off their wraps. A crowd of visit
ors was waiting at the gates before they
opened this morning, and at 10 O'Clock it
is estimated that 1900 to $1,000 had been
admitted.
It was given out this morning that the
Crown Prince of Austria and suite are
expected to visit the fair in October. He
is now on trip around the world, and
expects to reach San Francisco in Sep
tember. After viewing the sights of the
far West he will proceed TO Chicago.
In the Memorial Art Palace, on the
lake front, this morning, President c. c.
Bonney of the Worlds Congress, an
auxiliary of the Worlds Fair, delivered
an address, formally opening the great
series of gatherings that will continue
until the Worlds Fair is at an end, and
will deal with nearly every question of

His Petition Denied by the United

WASHINGTON, May 15.-The Supreme
Court of the United States to-day rem

John McNulty, the San Francisco muir
derer, and DR.. Vincent Of Fresno, CAL,
death.
The cases were carried to the United
States Supreme Court on writs of habeas
corpus by Carroll Cook, the San Fran
cisco attorney, who was present when
Chief Justice Fuller read the opinion of
the court to-day.
The court denied the petition of the
murderers and dismissed the writs. This
means that McNulty and Vincent will
die upon the gallows unless pardoned by
the Governor of California.
The decision Of the court in effect is
that it cannot interfere with the decree of
the California courts in its construction
of California law. If the California
court had not gone back on its first de-
cision and delivered another opinion on
another phase of the case, the United
States Court might have entertained the
motion.
Cook has obtained from the court ten
days stay Of mandate in order to give
him time to secure stipulations from the
Attorney General. Cook says he has two
other appeals pending in California
courts and something further will be
done upon his return to California, about
June 1st.
He admits, however, that the cases of
McNulty and Vincent are well-nigh
hopeless, as are also those of Bruggy and
others in which the same questions are
involved.
VINCENT VERY NERVOUS.
FRESNO, May 15.-When the news of
the adverse decision of the United States
Supreme Court in the case of DIR. F. o.
Vincent reached Fresno, Sheriff Scott
searched him, changed his clothing, put
him in a new cell and set the death watch.
Vincent still says he will not hang, but
he is nervous.

LONDON, May l5.-The suspension of
the Queensland National Bank causes no
excitement here, as it was expected. A

due to the persistent withdrawal of de-
posits. They express confidence that the
bank will be reorganized.

SAN RAFAEL, May l5.-The petition OF.

her and her child Of the balance Of the
estate, came up before Judge AngelottI
to-day.
George R. B. Hayes stated the Arch
bishop had conceded that two-thirds Of
the estate was community property. The
Maria Kip Orphanage also conceded the
same point Mr.. Rixford, however,
filed protest on behalf of the Maria Kip
Orphanage against the recognition of
community property, ana Mr.. Rixford
desired to stand up to his answer as fled.
The Judge then stated that the case
would be postponed until June.5th; that
the charitable institutions may possibly
change their views after they had become
acquainted with the fact that the child's
interests would be lessened and he
wanted to testthe question on its-merits.
Interesting proceedings are expected
when the case comes up.
Attorney Wallace says he will contest
the case to the bitter end if his sister is
not granted her share.

Indian railroad builders on the Puyallup

Colonel -JRoss for six months; that they
were rightfully there, and would not
leave. They went on working, and the
soldiers withdrew, after a scuffle between
