GRAVES SUICIDE.
His Widow viii Not Believe That the
Doctor Killed Himself.

Denver, Sept. 4.-The attorneys and
personal friends of DR. I. Thatcher
Graves, the famous prisoner who killed
himself in his cell in the county jail yes
terday by taking some subtle, unknown
poison, had conference this morning.
1t is limited that DR.. Graves ended his
own life with some mysterious drug or
combination of drugs which could only
have been prepared by an expert chemist,
and those who believe him guilty OF the
murder Of Mrs. Barnaby are said TO be
contemplating connecting the poison by
which the doctor ended his own trouble S
with that contained in the mysterious
bottle of whisky sent Mrs. Barnaby
from cher friends in the woods"
1t is limited that the strange poison IS
very likely the same The physicians
who were to hold the autopsy declined TO
do so until the county commissioners Will
guarantee a fee commensurate with the
Importance of the case.
sKEPTICAL AS TO HIS SUICIDE.
Mrs Graves, the doctors widow, is
stoUtly opposed to the autopsy and in
quest. She said that after the letter he
left there is no need of Investigation. Her
husband was prosecuted to death, she
says, and that is all there is to it. She
is not yet satisfied that the doctor com
mitted suicide, and does not believe his
letters were written while in suicidal
frame of mind. She thinks he simply
had prepared them in anticipation of
death from some sudden shock, and she
believes that he died from heart failure
due to the publication of the last fusilade
from the prosecution containing its prom
ise Of positive new evidence, etc.
DOUBTLESS GRAVES KILLED HIMSELF.

sician, saw her early this morning. At

good night and was perfectly rational and
her mind was clear He conducted her

TARIFF HEARINGS.

Several Persons Heard.

Several Persons Heard.
Washington, Sept. 4-The tariff hear
ings before the House committee on ways
and means have not followed the pro
gramme outlined for the first day. The
first person scheduled to be heard was
Representative Harter of Ohio He was
unable to appear this morning, owing to
illness in his family, but viii be given an
opportunity to be heard later and will
advocate the placing of agricultural I'M
plements and flour on the free list, or in
cluding them within the reciprocity

LOWER DUTIES ON VEGETABLES.
Thos. j. Woodson and Samuel A. Mas
ters, members of the Bermuda house of
assembly, are delegates to present to the
committee the arguments of the produc-
ern of the island in favor of the abolition
OF the duty on vegetables imported into
the United States, and discharged their
duty faithfully. IS shown by statistical
tables, these products paid duties in 1899
greater in amount than the entire Gus
toms revenue of the Bermudas. They
argued that a reduction of duty on vege-
tables would not injuro the inter
eest of the southern farmer United
States, because Bermuda products
were two months earlier than our south
ern products and did not compete with
them. When our southern crop began to
come in, the Bermuda crop stopped.
OTHER HEARINGS AFFORDED.
j. c. s. Davis Of Philadelphia was to ad-
dress the committee in connection with
the oilcloth schedule, but he did not ap-
pear.
L. l.. Goodsell of New York favored
the reduction of the duty on the Almeria
grape, better known as the white or
Malaga grape. He, like the Bermuda
men, held that in the case of their goods,
the producer, not the consumer, paid the
duties, and he demonstrated that his
goods came upon the market at season
when they did not come in competition
with any domestic product.

London, Sept. 4.-Rev MIR. Swami, a

EMIN PASTA SURPRISED AND BEHEADED.
According to reports received by Mr..
Swami, Emin had arrived at the resi-
dence of Seyd Bin Abed, in the country
of the Manyemas, in the eastern part
of the Congo state. A party of Arabs
approached and asked Emiu where
are you going}" ITO the coast" was
Emin's reply. The leader Of the Arabs,
who was armed with a scimeter, then
stepped up TO Emin and said: you are
Emin Pasha, who killed the Arabs at
Victoria INyanza." Without waiting for
an answer he struck off Emins head with
the scimeter.

Emin's body was thrown to the Manye-
mas, who ate 1t, Subsequently the
Manyemas murdered Emin's Nubian fol
lowers, and ate them. Mr.. Swami says
that these details have been so often re-
peated, that in Ujiji nobody has the
slightest doubt as to their correctness.

CHINA's DIPLOMAT.
Yang Yu Has a Pleasant Chat in the
White House Blue Room.

White House Blue Room.
Washington, Sept. AT o'clock this
afternoon the conduct of the case
of the Chinese negotiations over the
exclusion law was officially taken charge
of by Yang Yu, the new Chinese minister,
whose rank in his own country is so high
that it is only four degrees below that of
emperor of the Celestial kingdom. The
minister presented his credentials to the
President at the hour named, and was
formally recognized by the latter as the
diplomatic representative of China to the
United States.
HE CALLS on SECRETARY GRESHAM.
Yang Yu, with four attaches of his le-
CATION, met Secretary Gresham at the
state department by appointment a few
minutes before o'clock, and the party,
with the addition of Assistant Secretary
Adee, were driven to the white house and
ushered into the blue room. The minis
ter and his attaches were attired in silk
robes, the blouses of black and the skirts
of blue. Each wore a hat of red and
black adorned with plumes of horsehair.
Strung around the waists of the minister
were the insignia of the order Of the
Eight Banners, while the other diplomats
wore minor decorations similarly ap-
pended.
AN INTERCHANGE OF CoRDIALITIEs.
When Secretary Gresham had made
the presentations the minister made a
brief speech. The reply of the President
was also brief. Both abounded in ex-
pressions Of good will, personal respect,
and desire for future relations between
the two countries upon basis of comfy
and regard for international organiza-
tiOns.

to substitute star service over railroad
