'"The strong Americanism of the presj-

the week. Popular feeling was profoundly
moved, but, excepting in stock and cotton
markets, business was remarkably dull
and scarcely affected. Selling of securities
held abroad was natural first impulse,
though the sellers are not unlikely in time
to discover that no other securities are
safer from international complications than

theory that any interruption of foreign re.

when nearly all produce markets are in
active and Industries unusually dull, the
disturbance has affected values much less
than might have been expected. Not be-
cause of any foreign question, but solely
because Of influences which have been in
continuous operat ton for months, prices Of
manufactured goods continued to decline.

shoes, though gradually lower prices are

three per cent. for the week and are now

Harry Hayward Confesses to Four MUIR
ders Besides Miss Gingss.
Minneapolis, MINI, Dec. 20.-Harry
Hayward's ante-mortem statement,
dictated the night before his eXecu
ton, has been given to the public.
Hayward said that he never got into
trouble until he began to gamble.
After describing his early life and
how he became interested in gambling
and travelled all over the country, he
tells how he killed Chinaman in New
York with whom he was playing cards
and whom he caught cheating, and
showsthe disposed of the body. He then
/ dcscribed his murder of woman at
Pasadena, Call, who had $500, which
money he succeeded in getting hold of.
At FL Paso Del Norte he killed young
Mexican The wound was not serious,
but blood poisoning afterward set in,
from which theSman died. Once! when
tending bar in Long Branch, he killed
a consumptive man who had money
and wanted to die
The alleged confession then takes up
the Cling murder at some length. He
secured from her So, 800 in ALL She was
a good business woman, but not well
educated, and he won her confidence
partly by playing the noble act" and
partly by mystery. So
When he had determined upon kill
ing her he told a story about having
$4,000 worth of diamonds in pawn in
New York. She was to take out the
$4,000 insurance in his favor, give him
notes to make an insura bic interest and
receive the diamonds and $1,000. in
money. This money he pretended to
pay her, but $1,000 was counterfeit,
and after it had been put in an envelope
he changed the envelopes and gave her
one containing only paper.
He claimed to have hypnotized Blixt
HnG to have got the janitor completely
in his power. The first ride with Miss
Cling was just to get things ready. He
had told her green-goods-gang story,
with good deal of mystery about it,
which she believed. ">~e% ~ e
The second time he had taken the CIV
rail with him, intending to kill her and
then have it appear as if there had been
! all accident and she had fallen against
a curbstone. But he found no good
place, and so the third time he had
Elixt come. He told her BliNt was one
Of the gang. BliNt carried out the in
! structions to the letter, and the story
| he told on the stand was in the main
true, though little mixed on time.

Chicago, Dec. 21.-'The deluge in Chi
cago and its suburbs abated Friday
afternoon, after four days of incessant
rain, leaving a scene of watery waste
varying in depth from few inches to
several feet. Much business and resi-
dence property were damaged or washed
away and the overflow Of the Desplaines
river and Illinois & Michigan canal re-
suited in the pollution of the city's lake
water supply as we'll as the flooding of
the canal towns with sewage water
from Chicago. The big drainage chan
mel presented a desolate appearance
and work of every kind had to be aban-
doned, except for pumps keeping the
water from rising. In some sections
water was six feet and mules were i'm
prisoned up to their neclss. The banks
the torrents poured into the channel.
South Of Lamont on the old canal the
flood washed away the Santa Fe tracks
and trains were run over the Alton road
from Joliet.
Alton, ILL.,, Dec. 21.-The Mississippi
river broke all records here, rising IL
feet in as many hours. Hundreds Of
families on the lowlands were driven

age has been done to property by the
flood.
La Porte, Ind, Dec. 21.-A dispatch
says that the kankakee river, which
has been rising rapidly since Monday
night, is flooding the lowlands, driving
people along the river from their
homes. This is the region which was
swept by fire in November when a wall
of flame swept everything in its path,
causing damage estimated at 100000.
The same stricken people are now suf-
fering from the deluge. Rain has
fallen steadily for five days and nights.
