FAITHFUL
To Ills Trust, Was Frank ]. Miller,
Butler for J. L. Franklin---Killed a
Burglar and Was Shot Through
the Neck in the Fight.

San Francisco, February 14.-Frank
J. Miller, a butler in the employ Of J..
L. Franklin, this morning shot and
killed John Anderson, a burglar, and
was himself shot through the neck
and dangerously wounded.
When the police arrived on the scene
they found Miller lying unconscious
on the floor with the dead rcbber lying
across his feet Miller has been un-
conscious most of tine day, but revived
ipr q few minutes and said that at
about O'Clock this morning he got up
and went out for the morning paper.
In the kitchen he was met by three
men, who pointed pistols at his head
and forced him to surrender. Two
men went up stairs to rob the house
leaving Miller guarded by the third
rObber. After the TWO men had been
gone a little while. Miller saw a chance
and grabbed for the robbers pistol
The burglar jumped back and COM
menced firing. while Miller endeav0red
to get out his own pistol. Ii caught on
MS ClOluluS, however, anu Iell 10 lue
floor. Miller stopped and grabbed it
and fired The two men then grappled
and fell together. At this point Miller
again became unconscious and nothing
more could be learned from him. Four
shots had been fired at close range
from each Of the pistols. but only the
two took effect, one passing through the
brain Of the rcbber and the other
through Miller's neck. The two burg
lars who went mp stairs fed when the
shooting began. leaving masks and
tools behind them. The dead thief was
identified by the police as John Ander-
son. a sailor with a criminal record.
About a year ago an attempt was
made by two men to rob the Franklin
residence. Miller stood the burglars
of and was frightfully beaten by them.

THE NORTH POLE.
A Member of the Peary Expedition
Believes DR.. Nansen Has Found
the Long Sought Spot 49, Good
Grounds for the Belief.

Naverville, H., February 14.-Evelyn
D. Baldwin, the meteorologist of the
Peary expedition 1S99-94, was asked to-
day what he thought of the reported
discovery of the north pole by DR.. Nam
sen.
4 think it highly probable. It is
the result of we'll calculated plans and
not unexpected"
Dr. Nansen has certainly, it would
appear, accomplished that for which
he has striyen for at least the past five
years. The voyage of the jeanette un-
der DeLong, until the cruising OF the
vessel in latitude II degrees Is min
utes, and longitude 155 east indicated
that the near approach of the north
pole was to be made by well equipped
and properly constructed vessel from
mat drecG0l-Uy The new Siberian
Islands. The jeanette had drifted
through two long Arctic nights in that
region. and this would indicate that if
it is possible for a vessel under ordin-
airy conditions to endure so long, it is
to be expected that one of special con-
struction, as was DR.. Nansen's, would
succeed in going much farther
indianapolis, Ind, February n
julius r. Fredericks, who was a ser
geant in the Cr5ely expedition, that
reached latitude 1921, three hundred
and ninety-four miles from the pole,
said to-day that he thought it was in
the bounds Of possibility that Nansen
had reached the North Pole, but it was
improbable that he reached it and
started on the return down the east
coast of Greenland Sergeant Freder-
icks thinks it probable that the Pole is
on land.
Philadelphia, February 14.-Prof.
Charles e. Hite, who was naturalist on
the Peary relief expedition in 1892, said
to-day in speaking of DR.. Nansen's re-
ported discovery:
81 have not the slightest doubt that
DIR. Nansen was successful. / feel per-
fectly satisfied that the report is au-
thentic and that he has reached the
coveted goal"

WORLDS FAIR AWARDS.
The Board OF Control Closing Up the Ex-
position Business.

position Business.
Washington, February 14.-The
Worlds Fair Board of Control which
is the executive body of the Columbian
Commission, is in session here, trans
acting various odds and ends of busi-
ness relating to the Chicago exposition
that remain undisposed of. One of the
Boards duties is to officially promul-
gate the award of the $4,000 TO $4,000
medals and diplomas that were award
ed to the exhibitors at the fair. The
cases for the medals have been finished,
and some kind OF tubular device will
be prepared for the safe transmission
of the diplomas. 1t is expected that
everything will be ready in less than a
month The action of Director Gen
eral Davis in making his report to Con-
gress instead of first submitting it TO
the Board of Control is a source of dis
satisfaction and irritation to the men,
bers.
The Senate to-day passed bill ap-
propriating $4,000 to reimburse Mr..
Davis for the money expended by him
in the preparation of'his report. To-
day also the Board of Control adopted
a resolution for the appointment of a
committee of four to confer with the
members of Congress regarding the
matter. This committee will, it is
said, in no way antagonize the pay
ment of the money to Mr.. Davis, but
will present the case of the Board
making the claim that the director gen
eral should have submitted his report
to the Board or to the whole Columbian
Commission and not to Congress, di-
rectly over the heads of either body
The committee will probably urge the
propriety of having the report submit
ted to the Board for alteration before il
is printed
