Chandler Predicts Conflict With
the Avaricious English.
HOPES IT WILL Be SOON
Russia " in he the Furc pean Ally OF the
United states in -ncA
Contingency.

Concord, N H., Oct 29.-Over his own
signature and under the caption, Our
Coming War With England, a Pre-
diction," Senator Chandler gave out
the following statement last night:
WAR between the United States and
England is inevitable. 1t will arise on
account of British disregard of our di-
rect interests. 1t will also be forced
by British entertainments upon other
nations all over the world. 1t will be
fought by US, having Russia as the
European ally. As offensive war on
our part, it may not happen within 20
years; as defensive war, it may come
sooner and should be welcomed. A sure
result would be the capture and per-
manent acquisition of Canada by the
United States. England proposes to
seize from the United States a portion
of Alaska. She is destroying independ-
emit governments in all parts of the
globe. She treats American sentiments
and remonstrance with insolence and
defiance.
For vindication Of the Monroe doc
trine in the western hemisphere and
the protection OF these Independent gov
ernments in the eastern hemisphere,
here and in islands of the ocean, it is
necessary that the United States should
prepare for war with England. 1t had
better come now and be over with than
20 years from now. We ought to define
our position and say if not assented to
we shall fight to maintain it.
1T will take some time to prepare for
an offensive war, but defensive war.
can come none too soon. Let England
begin. Russia will be our sure ally. She
is the great absolute monarchy and the
United States the great republic of the
world. The former needs and is en-
titled to a seaport in the warm region
of which England persisIently deprives
her, but she wants no more territory.
The United States wants the Sandwich
islands and a fOothold in the West In
dies. Together they can defy the
world. They must and will restrain
the brutality and bloody avarice Of
Great Britain. Let this be understood
at once and let England strike the first
blow if she chooses. A million of men
and muskets will overrun Canada and
England's commercial ships will be
swept from the ocean. Let England be-
gin. We ought to begin if it is neces-
sary to save to Venezuela the mouth of
the OrinOcO"

Architect Acken Makes Report on pa
cific COasl Needs
Washington, Oct. 29-M. Acken, sup
cruising architect Of the treasury, re-
turned to Washington today from an
extended tour of inspection through the
west. At San Francisco he made a
critical examination of the site selected
for the public building and was entirely
satisfied with it. At Los Angeles he
found urgent need of greatly enlarged
postofIice facilities. During the winter
it is usually crowded with transient
people, who overtax the present build
ing and render at least one-third more
space necessary. 1t is probable that
the attention of congress will be called
to the latter this winter.
Acken said work would begin this
winter on at least five new buildings,
postof1ices at Chicago, San Francisco,
Portland and Pueblo and the mint at
Philadelphia. There is no foundation
for the published reports that Acken
contemplates resigning.

about to be resumed when the dis
trict attorney asked that all the wit
nesses connected with any part Of
the case to retire. After the witnesses
had all left the room. Holmes asked If
his wife was to be a witness.

attorney, (which wife do you mean?"

a flush Of anger. 1.-THE woman you see
fit to designate as Miss Yorke"

DIR. SCOTS STORY.
DR.. Scott was then permitted to tell
his story concerning his having been
called in to examine Pietzeps body af-
ter it's discovery. He explained the
situation of the room and the arrange
ment of the windows so that the sun
rays should fall upon the corpse and
hasten decomposition. The doctor
dwelt upon the discovery of chlorofOrm
in the stomach, and said large quanti-
ties Of the drug had been used, and from
the contested condition Of the lungs
and the empty heart, it was apparent
that the man had met a sudden and vio-
lent death from chloroform poisoning.
Dr. Scott was then turned over to
Holmes for cross-eXamination.
'Are you prepared to say" he asked.
that the decomposition Of the body
would not have occurred had it been in
a darkened room? p Yes, sir; had it
been i'm cool, darkened room, NORTH
cation would not have come so quick
ly."
Did you, at that time, express any
opinion as to the length of time that
he had been dead?" 81 said from all
appearances he had been dead three or
four days"
Holmes then subjected DR.. Scott to
lengthy and detailed examination,
touching the effects of chlorotoln, but
obtained few answers that would tend
to throw the balance in the slightest de-
gree in his favor.
At the conclusion of DR.. ScOtts test
imony, DR. William X. Mattern, the
coroners physician, was Gale l. The
witness said he had made the post
mortem examination at the morgue on
September A. and the conditions were
the same as described by DR.. Scott
There had been paralysis. indicating
sudden death, and evidences of chloro-
form in the stomach
Holmes began cross-examining DR.
Mattern by requiring him to read his
notes Of the result of the autopsy, in
their entirety. The doctor unqualified
~ declared that death had been caused
by chloroform poisoning
The cross-eXamination. consumed
nearly two hours, and the great major
ity of the questions put by Holmes were
entirely Irrelevant.
AT the beginning of the night session
of the court Holmes asked if he could
send for his attorneys, Shoemaker and
Rotan. The judge consented, and then
again took up the case Several wit
nesses were examined, but no important
facts developed, court adjourning until
tomorrow.

Seattle, Oct 29-The indications are
that James J. Hill viii be compelled
to accede to the demands to be made
on him by the American Railway

Northern railroad an extensive strike.
There is now at Devils Lake, N. D.,
a committee of eight, chosen from va
rious lodges of the order, including one
representative from this state, and to-
gether they are revising schedules for
submission to President Hill. The main
ground for contention is that the low

to as much consideration as the high
paid man without a grievance. AS fur
Their cause for complaint it. is claimed
that Hill, ever since the union won the
great strike which came to an end May
18 1894 has been systematically violat-
ing the agreement made at that time.

dispatch to the Chronicle says ex-City
Treasurer Boggs, who held office from
1880 to 1894, is charged with embezzling
$lO9, 900, and the sheriff is on the road
to Jackson, Or, to arrest him.
The recent bank failures at Tacoma
have disclosed the fact that Boggs,
while treasurer, deposited a large sum
Of city warrants in the banks, receiv-
ing credit as cash. The warrants so
deposited are supposed to aggregate
$4,000. The German-American and
Columbia National banks have brought
suit to have their accounts with the
city offset with these warrants, claim
ing them to be illegal because issued
in excess of the legal Indebtedness. The
city's deposit in these banks aggregat-
ed $4,000 and if their contention is
upheld it is claimed the city would lose
that amount, as it would be morally
bound to validate and pay these war
rants.
