Gil cinnati, Jan. DIARY Zaner lives
near this city. Zaner and his wife were
found murdered Zaner was q farmer and
q good citizen The murder was evident
ly committed yesterday. Zaner, wife and
one son compose the family. Zaner and
his wife are dead, the son missing. The
wife has FIVE bullet holes in the face and
Zaner's head is mashed by blows OIL the
rear Outside of the house are pools of
blood, and the stock Of his gun lies near
him in the kitchen with the barrel bent
out of shape. The clothes were partly
buried off and the faces Of both more
or Less burned. The barn is burned with
it's contents, nearly full of hay, three
horses and four or five cattle persisted.
The evident purpose was to burn the
house as the victims were saturated with
oil. But neighbors came in time to save
the house. 1t is the theory that the son,
who ~as a quiet young man, may have
beeL burned in the barn. In making
search about the house three pocket
books were found containing 1925. These
Were: all together, as if dropped in the
haste Of the moment. Bureau drawers
and papers showed that bloody hands
had been about them. Two colored men
| were seen in the village of Heinchvile,
half mile away to-day. They asked for
razors. Zaner was Il man about sixty,
was soldier and good citizen. The
crime is surrounded so far by mystery.

Washington, Jan. 6.-The Democratic
caucus met in the hall of the house of rep
resentatives last night. to consider the
Wilson tariff bill. There was a good at
ter dance. Judge Holman was chairman
and Mr.. Anderson secretary of the caucus.
Although the roll call showed only 124
men bers present, many came in during
the call. andi was estimated that there
were LAT Democrats in attendance when
the proceedings began. There are PIG
Democrats in the house and a caucus
Quorum is 1OS. The attendance indicated
that in the neighborhood of forty who
are in the city remained away. There
were no conspicuous absences among the
''kickers.'' Speaker Crisp offered a res
olution declaring that it was the duty of
every Democrat to vote for the considera-
ton of the tariff bill, and also that it
was the duty of all Democrats to at
tend the sessions of the house and main
tain q quorum until the tariff bill is dis
posed of. In ring ing speech the speaker
took occasion to rather sharply reprimand
Democrats who had been responsible for
the ipaction of the house during the past
three days. Several speeches were made
for and against the bill, after which
Sneaker Crisp's resolution was adopted
Another resolution was adopted that il
was the sense of the caucus that if 6
proposition for an income tax was re-
norted from the committee that two days
additional should be given for debate.
The power Of the committee on rules
was invoked to break down the obstruc
tion in the path of the tariff debate il
the house. An iron clad order wa,
brought in setting out the programme
for the tariff debate and fixing Jan. 2!

as the day for taking the final vote.
This resulted only in side-tracking Mr..
Routelle and his Hawaiian resolution,r as
when the vote came to be taken on the,
adoption of the order the Democrats
lacked nine votes of quorum. At least
twenty Democrats at the capitol either
absented themselves from the hall or
refused to answer to their names when
called.

North and South.

At meeting of northern and south
earn business men in New York, Secreta-
ry Hoke Smith told the company that
the south had csc, ,0O0. 900 acres of land,
most of which was tillable. and only
6ne-fifth of which was under cultiva-
tion. That fifth suppliest the Union with
its cotton and nearly all the sugar grown
in this country, not to speak Of oranges,
melons and other fruit. Hoke Smith de-
clared that one-third of the agricultural
yield Of the entire country came from
the one-fifth of the south that is under
cultivation. Land can be bought at
from $5 to $40 an acre, good land. The
yield per acre is twice as large in the
south as In the north. he said. AS to
the mineral resources of the south, they
had not yet been SO much as touched,
and they were unexcelled anywhere.
The secretary declared in the most SOL
emn manner that northern mems inter-
ests would be protected If they went
south to build homes. Southern people
would guarantee it.
At the same meeting plan and scope
committee was appointed to devise ways
and means to bring northern capital and
immigration to the agriculture and mines
Of the south. Some of the best known,
most solid men of both sections are serv-
ing ON the committee.

Fortunate IL was that the beautiful

like leaves all over the world. Nothing
but pure devilishness could prompt any
creature to set fire to the buildings that
remained to show the glory of the worlds
greatest exposition. There was nothing
to gain by setting them on fire, nothing
for anybody. It could not be revenge
that led to the wanton outrage, for there
was nothing to be revenged. If the in

account for the fire, but that is not

Oklahoma Town Site Blu Passed.

WASHINGTON. Feb. 16-The vice presi dent of the United States came to the res cue of the Oklahoma town site bill and by his vote he broke the tie and passed the bill compelling the Rock Island Railroad company to stop its trains at the new towns of Enid and Round Pond
 This measure has been under discussion in the senate nearly a week and has been one of the most hotly contested bills of the session. The railroad company, according to the advocates of the bill, secured con trOl from the Indians, in advance of the opening of the territory, of the town sites adjacent to those of Enid and Round Pond, regularly established by the interior de- partmenu, and the trains of the Rock Is- land road have refused to stop at Enid and Round Pond and compelled. settlers to come two or three miles down the line of the road in order to receive their freight or transact any business involving railroad transportation.
 As Enid and Round Pond are alleged each to have population of 2,000 inhab- itants or more, the remonstrance against the railroad company's action has been so strong that it has found its way to con- gress. The measure on the final vote stood p to ?, and the vice president promptly exercised his prerogative by casting the deciding vote in favor of the bill. The senate amended the measure, however, and it must go back to the house for the concurrence of that body. Senators Berry of Arkansas and Palmer of Illinois were the prfVipal champions of the bill, and Sen ators Blackburn of Kentucky and Platt of Connecticut were its leading opponents.

M'kANE IN JAIL.
The CoDvicte Boss May Bs Sentenced For
 From Two to Ten Years.

BROOKLYN, Feb 1G.-John |. McIane is spending today as a prisoner in the Ray mond Street jail. He will stay there until Monday morning at 10 o'clock, when he will be brought up for sentence before Jus tice Bartlett for complicity in the Graves end election frauds.
 The scene in the courtroom when the jury brought in a verdict of guilty was a dramatic one. Mckane glanced swiftly to- ward the jury, but only once. Then his frame began to tremble, and if he made an effort to conceal his agitation it could not be detected. The agitation of his counsel was as great as his own. Lawrence Back us, who was the only legal representative of the defendant in the courtroom, re- served the usual right for the defendant namely, to ask for an arrest of judgment and for a new trial.
 0 These motions will be made at the proper time, he said. While these formalities were taking place in the courtroom friends of the defendant were rushing through the halls crying out: Hes found guilty! He's found guiltyr'
 Just before the jury was discharged Foreman Sackett arose and said, Your honor, the jury has a recommendation to make" Clerk Byrne the9 received let ter which the jury had wf Aen and which was signed by the 12 men. Without look ing at it, Justice Bartlett said, II suppose, gentlemen, that this is recommendation to mercy"
 "It is, your honor," replied Foreman Sackett
 Justice Bartlett put it into his pocket, saying, T shall give due consideration to the recommendation, gentlemen, in my eff forts to perform my duty properly" Jus tice Bartlett then left the courtroom.
 The crime for which Mckane was con victed is a felony, for which he can be sell fenced to not less than two and not more than 10 years Imprisonment.

How to Renew China Silks.

In these days, when wash silks are in common use, a few words in regard to washing them may be of interest. As silk Is an animal fiber, like wool, It can not be treated in the same way as cot~ ton, which may be subjected to water of all temperatures without injury. Silk should be washed as rapidly as pos sible. Examine the articles to be wash ed, and if there are any parts especially soiled clean with a little benzine or gas oline, applied with a flannel cloth. Then prepare soapsuds of lukewarm water and plunge the garments in it, sousing them up and down and rubbing them thoroughly in the studs. Rinse them into water little cooler. and then into a third water still a little cooler, and so on until the final rinslng water Is per feCtIy cold. Do not blue them. Wiring them out 2s dry us possible with q ma chine. Lay then: in sheets or heavy cloths and luII them as hard as you can in firm lulIs. Put thenl away fer an hour, and at the end of that time iron them on the wrong side.
