TOXIC, March 29.-The Emperor
of Japan has declared an uncondi-
tional armistice.
ST. PETERSBURG, March %
.AdVices here from Toxic say that
the decision of the Emperor of Japan
TO declare an unconditional armistice
was greatly due to the extreme in
dignation aroused by the attack on
Viceroy Li-Hung- Chang.
WASHINGTON, March 29.-The dec
.aration of an armistice was most wei
come news to the Chinese legation, al
though 1t was accepted with the sto-
dity and passive dignity which is
characteristic of the race. The first
word of the armistice reached the lega-
ton through the Associated Press Mr.
Yang Yu had received no official COM
munication from China, nor from the
state department. Under these cir
cumstances, he asked to be excused
from discussing the situation. The nu-
merous suite of the legation, COM
prising many secretaries, attaches and
tranSlatorS, were evidently glad that
the tedious and discouraging struggle
was at an end. They discussed its eff
ISClS upon lnelr cOCnIfymen at nome.
There was some doubt as to the mean
Ing of the term unconditional arm
istice, although this was accepted as
meaning that recent events, including
probably the shooting of Prince Lii,
had induced the ENJOYS to agree to an
aRmistice before agreeing exactly on
the terms of peace 1t is felt that the
arran gements of these terms will still
be a difficult task. The feeling in the
interior of China, where the direct eff
fects of the war have not been felt, is
very strong against a cession Of ter
ritory. Moreover the payment of a
cash indemnity will necessitate the i'm
position of heavy taxes on the people
and consequent depression. These
considerations, together with the di-
rect losses and ravages of war, make
the commercial revival of China SO
problematic that the officials would
not discuss it tonight, beyond mem
tioning the difficulties in the way of a
restoration of commerce and internal
prospective. -af-,- 49, $500. -s- -,,s,..--

REMORSE TROUBLED HER.
Des MOines Girl COnfesses to Kill
ing Her Father.

OMAHA, Neb., March 29.-Cora
Smith, formerly a resident of Des
Moines, but who has lived in this city,
since last September, was arrested
here and taken to Des Moines this
morning. The Smith woman, shortly
after being arrested, confessed to hav-
ing assisted in numbering her father
last May.
Mike Smith was the murdered mans
name, and previous to the last and
successful attempt to kill him by poi
Soning, an attempt was made by
shooting. The ball passed through his
head just back of the eyes, from the
effects of which he was blinded 1t
was not proven who fired this shot,
and Smith could not be led to believe
that members of his family were plot
ting to kill him. Not long after the
shooting incident, poison in small
doses was administered, from the eff
fectS of which he dided last MAY. The
wife and daughter were arrested,
charged with the crime. and in June
the wife was convicted of murder and
sentenced to life imprisonment in the
Iowa penitentiary. Cora was dis
charged when taken before the police
judge for a hearing, and after re-
naming in Des Moines for a short
time she came to Omaha Her asso-
ciates noticed that something was
continually worrying her. but were
not aware of the cause. After her
mother was sent to prison she began
writing to her, and in one of the let
tiers told how she had assisted in
poisoning her father, and at the same
time duplicating her aunt, Mrs. Ellen
Leader. This letter-fell into the hands
of the detectives, as did also other
correspondence. In her confession she
said that the poison used was pur-
chased by her aunt, Mrs. Leader, and
that Mrs. Leader administered sew
eral doses, but the one which resulted
fatally was given by herself. She ex-
pressed a desire to return to Des
Moines without requisition papers,
and said that she would be glad to
get a chance to have her mother lib
Grated. She said she was willing to
pay the penalty of her crime, and the
thought that her mother was serving a
life sentence for something she had
not done had preyed upon her mind
until she had become almost crazed
The object of the murder was for the
purpose of getting the insurance which
Smith carried on his life. The amount
was $6,000 but after the conviction of
Mrs. Smith for murder the insurance
companies refused to pay the policies.
Smith was one of the Oldest engineers
on the Rock Island road.

parents of the young people were
not opposed to their marriage.

Richland Center and vicinity, having
had charge of the PRESBYTERIAN
services at Fancy Creek, a few
miles north of Richland Center. and
occasionally occupied the pulpit Of
the First Presbyterian church in
the latter place. His parents re-

and the Whitewater normal she
gained quite reputation for eIocu-
uonary ability. Rev. Richard A.

the United States legation at Homo

Mills, the secretary of the legation,
which will exactly correspond in
official status with the Hawaiian
legation at Washington. In this case
the conditions will be precisely par

HOME RULE FOR ALL.
British House OF Commons De-
clares for 1t.

LONDON, March 29.-In the house
pof commons today James Henry Dali
ziel, advanced Liberal member for the
Kirkcaldy district, moved the adoption
of resolution to give home rule to
England, Ireland, Scotland and Wales.
John Redmond the well-known Par
nellite who sits for Waterford City,
opposed the resolution, declaring that
it meant the shelving of Irish home
rule, and the house OF lords shall have
been abolished. John Dillon supported
the resolution.
The Right Hon. John A. Balfour, the
Conservative leader. appealed to the
house not to make itself ridiculous by
voting in favor of a policy that was
exactly the opposite of that which had
built up the great empires of the world
a vote was taken and the resolution
was adopted by majority of a. the
vote standing 126 in favor to 102
against.
The resolution of Mr.. Dalziel, adopted
by the house of commons, broadly
speaking, is intended to allow each
country to deal with it's own affairs,
subject. to haZily defined veto power
vested in the imperial parliament In
short, it is the application to England,
Scotland and Wales of the Irish home
rule scheme, modified or expanded to

MEADE ON THE MOVE.
The Gulf Squadron Will Do Cen
trail America

WASHINGTON, March 29.-It is ex-
pected at the navy department that
Admiral Meade will sail with his
squadron tomorrow from Kingston,
Jamaica, for Carthagena, Colombia,
for coal. 1t will require two days at
least to coal the ships and it will be
April before they sail for Colon
After leaving Colon, Admiral Meaue
Will work along up the east coast of
Central America. Whether or not he
Will take with him the Atlanta and the
Raleigh, now stationed at Colon will
depend on the outcome of the Colon
bian revolution, but it is probable that
one of these ships will be left on guard
there for few weeks longer Coming
northward, the squadron will touch at
Port Limon, Costa Rica, and then at
GreytoWn, the nearest harbor to Llue-
fields suitable for large ships. The
fact that Admiral Meade is due at this
place on April IA in some quarters
has been construed to mean that the
United States is about to make a dem
onstration in force to restrain Great
Britain from intimidating Nicaragua
But 1t is said at the navy department
that no orders bearing on this diplo-
matte question have been sent to Adj
mira Meade, and the fact that his visit
to Nicaragua at that time is moth
ing more than a coincidence is
borne out completely by the itinerary
arranged months ago. After leaving
Greytown the squadron will visit Lit
tie Corn island, and then Old Provi-
dence, where the Kearsarge relics were
collected. Havana is next set down
in the itinerary, but it may be that
this stop will be omitted for the same
reason that caused the abandonment
of the plan of touching at Santiago
de Cuba, namely a desire to avoid any
show of a naval demonstration in
Cuban waters while conditions are dis
turbed. The squadron therefore may
go directly from Old Providence to
Key West and so on to Hampton
Roads.
