THE ANARCHIST MONUMENT.
dwelling of the Memorial at Waldheim
Cemetery.

CHICAGO, June 26.-The unwilling of
The granite monument erected to the
memory of the five anarchists-Spies,
Parsons, Fischer, Lingg and Engel-
which took place yesterday afternoon
at Waldheim cemetery, was an impress
i've ceremony. More than $500 per-
soIG assembled at the burial ground to
stamp once more with their approval the
sentiment and actions of the men whom
the state of Illinois found guilty of
treason and put to death.
The crowd was orderly and the few
policemen, under whose protection the
ceremony took place, found little to do
beyond keeping the sympathizers with
anarchy in line if they surged through
the gates of the enclosure. 1t was a
crowd of Germans, Poles and Bohemi-
ans. Scarcely an American was to be
seen and the exercise were carried on
mainly in foreign tongues.
The character of the speeches could
not be called incendiary butrather that
of mild protest against the existing or
der of government. The ringing ora

All the enthusiasm the orators

LIZZIE ACQUITTED.

The Jury Declares Miss Borden Not Guilty
of the Murder Of Her Father and Step
mother.
New BEDFORD, Mass, June 21.-The
Lizzie Borden case was given to the
jury yesterday afternoon, and after be-
ing out a little more than an hour a
verdict of not guilty was returned.
When court convened in the after
noon the chief justice addressed Miss
Borden by name, telling her that
she now had a voice and could say to
the jury what she chose to say. She
arose somewhat agitated, and said to
the jury: II am innocent, but | vii!
leave my case in your hands and in the
hands of my counsel"
Judge Dewey then charged the jury.
He read his charge rapidly, and among
other things embodied therein was the
caution to make decision only upon
the law and the evidence given. The
court defined the degrees of murder and
said the degree is to be determined by
the jury.
At the conclusion of the charge, the
attorneys consulted a few moments
The jury was allowed to retire and
counsel agreed upon what exhibits
were to be put into the case, after
which they were brought in again, the
oath administered by the clerk of the
court, and the jury took the case.
1t was just 4:3O o'clock when the
spectators, who had kept their seats
patiently during the retirement of the
jury, noticed a movement indicating
their return. A moment later the
twelve men filed into their seats and
were polled.
Miss Borden was asked to stand up
and the foreman was asked to return
the verdict, which he announced-"Not
guilty"
Then all the dignity and decorum of
the court room vanished. A cheer went
up which might have been heard half q
mile away through the open windows
and there was no attempt to check it.

SENATOR STANFORD DEAD.
An Apoplectic Stroke Proves Fatal While
He Is Resting In Bed.

ht Is htrtiuS III ntus
MEMO PARK, Cal, June 92-United
States Senator Leland Stanford, ex-
governor of California, multimillion-
aire, railroad magnate, philanthropist
and renowned breeder of fine horses,
died most Unexpectedly sometime be-
fore midnight at his residence at Palo
Alto.
Tuesday Mr. Stanford, who had
been more or less i'll for some weeks,
was in seemingly improved health and
enjoyed drive about his magnificent
stock farm. lie retired shortly after
10 o'clock and about midnight his valet,
going into the room, discovered that he
was dead.
1t has been evident for some time that
Senator Stanfords demise was ques-
ton of but a short time. His symptoms
were apoplectic and his weight was in
creasing alarmingly. There was a
softness about his limbs that made
locomotion an exceedingly difficult
task and he could take only the light
est exercise. Six months ago he sent
for DR.. Curtis, of San Francisco. The
physician prescribed heroic treatment,
but the senator was not ready to I'M
dergo drastic methods for the reduction
Of flesh and the restoration of his wan
ing strength. His apoplectic symptoms
increased and his situation became such
as to create serious alarm.
About six weeks ago it was found
necessary to impose a severe plain diet
on the senator, and from that time his
sole food consisted of fried hashed meat
with hot water as the only liquid ae-
compartment He rigidly adhered to
the severe requirements of the physi,
clan and it seemed for a time that its
results were most beneficial and might
possibly effect permanent cure. Heck
pressed himself as much encouraged

with renewed energy to public affairs
and to the completion of certain educa-
tional and benevolent enterprises that
were very dear to his heart, but his
strength was not sufficiently great y
respond to the demands upon it. Fun
damental weakness suddenly mani
tested itself and he passed quietly
away.
Senator Stanford was a New Yorker
by birth, and was SO years old. He
came of sturdy parents, his father, Jo-
siah, being a prosperous farmer, who
also took contracts for the building of
bridges and railways and helped to
build the Albany & Schenectady road,
dow a part of the New York Central.
He had seven sons, of whom Leland
was the fourth.

A CHURCH HORROR.
A False Alarm of Fire Causes a Terrible
Panic in Russia.

ST. PETERSBURG, June 24.-While the
ancient church of Romono at Berisogle,
on the Volga, was crowded with pill
grims from all parts of Yarestav, who
had come to take part in the annual
church procession, panic was caused
by false alarm of fire, which had been
made by thieves in order to facilitate
their operations.
When the firemen arrived in answer
to the tolling of an alarm by the sexton
of the church they found the door
locked. Breaking in they witnessed a
fearful sight In the mad rush for the
exit hundreds had been knocked down
and trampled upon, while others had
been suffocated by the pressure of the
great throng of terror-striclSen people.
The bodies of 126 women and ten men
were taken from the church. Nor was
this the total number of victims, as
several other persons had been killed
and twenty fatally injured by leaping
from windows thirty feet from the
ground.

New YORK, June 21.-The Suburban

disappointment to the turf-loving pub

numerous successes, was completely dis

There was no crowding or jost.

rode to win in as fair manner as pos

POISONING AT OMAHA.
An Entire Family Suffer Mysteriously-A
Daughter Dead.


Daughter Dead.
OMAHA, Neb., June 2G.-Seven mem
bers of the family of Conrad Lehnig, a
tailor, have suffered since last Thursday
night from a mysterious poisoning.
One daughter died last evening. On
Thursday one daughter was graduated
frog the high school and in preparing
for this event the ordinary routine of
the household was upset and no
regular meals prepared. After
returning from the graduation
exercises in the evening, the
family partook freely of a luncheon,
one feature of which was salad COM
posed of lettuce, vinegar and lard.
Shortly after eating Of this all were
taken i'll with pain in the stomach and
vomiting, but medical aid was not pro-
cured until late Friday night The
physicians in charge are unable to de-
termine whether it was mineral or
vegetable poison, and say it will re-
quire chemical analysis, if even that
will tell.
Aside from the daughter who died
last evening, the other members of the
family are in fair way to recover, al
though the mother and a second daugh-
ter are very low. There is no means
of knowing yet if the poison was in
tentionally placed in the food, as none
OF the family can give any detailed ac-
count of the occurrence. So far as can
be Judged from appearances the affair
was purely accidental
