contradictory reports are in circulation.
On one side Russia France and Ger
many are reported to have come to some
sort of an agreement upon their course
in the future on the other hand, it is
said today that Austria is alarmed and
is urging Germany 10 cement a better
understanding with Great Britain. The
latter supposition is likely to be correct,
but the accomplishment of Austria's |
plans looks difficult, as things now
stand. If il is true that Russia and |
France have been secretly assisting King |
Menelik against Italy, it would seem
natural that Emperor William, who has
been leaving no stone unturned to bring
about more cordial relations between
Germany and Russia, should side with
the latter pow er and France in joint
endeavor to crush Italy's colonial aspira
tons in Africa, and by so doing strike
blow at Germany's leading colon al
rival, Great Britain.

SALT LAKE CITY, Utah, March II ~
In ftof sullen anger William Alonzo
Pickering, a young man RI 70 wears,
living at Fourth and K streets, shot
himself through the heart last night at
10 O'Clock, dying soon after BY his act
he widowed a young wife and rendered
fatherless mis- baby daughter Of month.
For loug time past Pickering has
been morose and gloomy at intervals.
During these periods of doubt and dis
trust and dissatisfaction with the whole
world he has seemed more than half de-
ranged and his friends for this reason
have always watched him closely. For
several days he has been in this condi-
ton, from which the loving attentions
of an affectionate wife have proven futile
to arouse him. He acted very pecu-
liarly yesterday, even to one acquaint-
ed with his idiosyncracies, and after a
trip down town returned home in the
alone, His wife raped repeatedly at
the door, imploring him to let her in,
but the only intimation he gave that he .
heard her entreaties was to blow out the
light as if preparing to retire. After half
an hour absolute silence on his part,
suddenly he threw the bolt, opened the
door and emerged from the room. In
his hand he carried Bulldog revolver
of English pattern, twirli g it by the
trigger guard from his little finger
His wife, sister-in-law and two young
brothers were in the room. He ordered
hem to leave, but despite the fear,
caused equally by his sinister manner
md the deadly weapon he brandished
20 carelessly, they did not all do so.
One of the boys was sent for assistance,
he others remaining to try to pacify the
TRANCE angry man. Still in silence he
procured cartridges, loaded the gun and
gain retired to the chamber he had
occupied during his previous vigil His
ister-in-law followed, endeavoring to
ecure the revolver, but he refused with
gesture to give is up, and listened
tonily to her earnest appeals.
At this juncture Frank Pickering, a
'alt Lake City railroad motorman, who
) an uncle of the young man, arrived,
4 company with Thomas Mulholland,
tho also lives near at hand. They
-ere standing near shed few yards
the rear of the house, discussing
hat was best to be done, when they
card noise as of some one leaving
lie house.
"Come out, Willie" said the uncle,
'assuringly, and as the words were
tered young Pickering stepped from
lie back door. He made a couple of
rides across the patch of light be.
'een the house and shed toward the
70 men. Then there was flash and a
port, and the young husband and
Their staggered forward and fell on the
IT earth. He moaned once and strug
ed convulsively for few minutes
fore passing away.
