DR.. Buchanan Thinks He May Escape the
EIec trio Chair,

Sing Sing, NY, April 21.-Dr. Bucha-
uan, the condemned murderer, still
clings to the hope that the Governor may
do something in his case. Warden Sage
informed him this afternoon of the Gov
ernor's action. The prisoner seemed dis
appointed, but is not discouraged. His
wife called at the prison today and had
a long interview with him. He gave her
instruction in regard to new matter
to be presented to the Governor tomor-
row in further effort. He sent a num-
ber of telegrams to his lawyers and
friends in New York in reference to the
case.
Warden Sage does not think there is
any chance for the. condemned gman.
Invitations to the electrocution will
probably be sent out tomorrow and the
execution. take place Thursday or Friday
in the event of the Governor not inter-
fering.

Madame Modjeska Expelled from,Russia
the Poies-English Forces Relieve the
Chitral Fort.
I Berlin. April dispatches
from st. Petersburg say the Standard Oil
company and the Russian oil producers
have perfected an agreement which awaits
now he finance minister's sanction, before
booming operative. Tne publicsshare largely
the excitement Eof spectators in oil and
every scrap of news regarding the Russo
American negotiations is snapped up eager
" and spread conspicuously ON the front
pages of newspapers throug heut the Empire.
ssThe rise in the price of oils is likely to
cause more energetic exploitation of works
in Alsace and Lorraine, which already pro-
vide five per cent of the entire amount con-
sumed in Germany. The Reutlingen works
at Wutemburg are about to reopen. and
fresh fields are sought and tested in every
district where there is the slightest chance
of paying results.
Letters from Vienna say the Austrian
market is not affected much by the furry in
America. Austria refnes all the oil she re-
quires, but consider able of her unretined oil
comes from Galicia, and although she gets
some of the raw product from Russia. Ow-
ing to tie rise in American oil, Galician re-
ners are now able TO export the product to
Germany. although the Galician petroleum
generally sells about five cents under
American. Reports are multiplied in the
Russian petroleum market since the furry
that the Russians are likely to lose much
Asiatic custom, since several native re-
hneries have opened at EnZeli and other
points along the Persian shore of the
Caspian sea. In competition with the
Persians, the Russians are at distinct disad-
vantage. for they must pay tax of thirty
cents while the Persians pay no tax at all.
The Agricultural Union nas issued cir
cular urging farmers to give up petroleum
motors and use gas. 4 movement has been
started to obtain state aiG for the develop
ment of domestic oil fields and to combine
Austrian and German producers against the
Russo-AmeIican ring.

ner of the Victims of White Chapel
Murderer-An italian Was Arrested on
Suspicion.
New York, April 2l.-Alice Walsh,
frequenter of the region around Thonip-
son and Su llivan streets, was found un-
conscious in a pool of blood in a hallway
of the tenement of 143 Thompson street
shortly before 6.e'clock this morning.
The woman was taken to Bellevue hos
pital VIII ere she was discovered she had
been stabbed in the pelvice region and
there was many bruises on the body.
The woman remained unconscious until
her death, at Ills a. NJ. An autopsy
was performed and it was found that
brutal murder of the type made fam
GUS by" Jack the Ripper" had been COM
mitted. The dead woman WINS evidently
a woman of the town, labout 25 years
old. No part of the body was free FROM
contusions and many of which appeared
to be caused be kicks. They were es-
pecially numerous on the legs ana thighs.
The weapon with which the wound was
made, the doctors said, was either a
stiletto or long knife, sharpened TO a
razor's keenness. The weapon penetrated
five inches. A female prisoner, assigned
to Bellevue identified tne body and said
she knew of no one who was jealous of
Alice to such an extent rs to lead to
murder. The tenants of the house
where Alice was found, say they head
nothing in the halls during the night
or the early hours of thet morning that
sounded like struggle or fight. The
tenants are mostly Italians. This af-
ternoon Philip Mewlew, who gave his
address as 154 Thompson street, was ar
rested on suspicion of being concerned in
the murder.
AS the murderedEwoman's movements
Saturday night were traced, the.possi-
bilities of Mewley 'ssguilt is steadily de-
creased. The last person in whose COM
pany Alice was seen alive, was an Italian.
The couple had several drinks in sa-
loon and then quarrelled. They left the
saloon together about Sunday morn
ing. Nothing afterwards was seen of
the woman till-she was found intthe ten
ement hallway. The police are looking
for the Italian.
