4 CHAPTER TO COME
Ia the Story of the Murder OF Pearl
Bryan
The Postal Authorities to Prosecute Will
lam Wood for Unlawful Use
of the Mails

CINCINNATI, O., March 21.-There is
to be another chapter in the murder of
Pearl Bryan. Since the execution of
Scott Jackson and Alonzo Walling, the
friends of the men have determined To
prosecute William Wood, a cousin of
Pearl Bryan, who was charged by
Jackson with her seduction and getting
Jackson and Walling to help nim out
of trouble. Among the effects of the
dead man are letters from Wood asking
Jackson for medicine and afterward to
arrange for an abortion. These letters
have been turned over to Postal Inspec-.
tor Salmon, who presented them to the
district attorney at Indianapolis for use
before the federal grand jury for the
purpose of indicting and trying Wood
for such use of the mails. Wood was
indicted over year ago on the charge
of abetting an abortion. Wood has not
been at his home in Green Castle, Ind,
for months and his present whereabouts
are unknown. 1t is proposed to get the
secret service of the government after
him. The Bryan family are also want
ing Wood prosecuted and have been
pursuing him.
The ashes of Scott Jackson were
taken from the Cincinnati crematory to-
day and his sister Mrs. Post, took the
ashes with her to Green Castle, Ind.
today. AS Pearl Bryan is buried in the
Green Castle cemetery, the people of
that place have refused burial for jack
sons body and his mother was unable
to take them to their old home in Maine.
The remains os Walling were placed IN
a vault but it is thought that he will be
buried in the family lot at Mount Car
mel. Ind, where his father and other
members of the family are buried
Large crowds visited the Newport
Jail today but there were no incidents
other than those of curlosity-seekers.

SACRAMENTO, March 21.-The
thirty-second session of the California
legislature is over. 1t expired amid mu-
tual compliments from all its members,
amid presents to a Democratic presiding
officer by Republicans who compliment
ed him on his fairness, by presents to
Republican presiding official from Dem
ocrats with the same compliments
The new tax levy is virtually victory
for the governor who, although he
wanted 40 cents or less, agreed on 4S%,
while the senate placed the figures at 4S
and 46 cents for the next two years. The
tax rate is enough to cover all legitimate
expenses and the governor hopes to leave
a surplus at the end of his term. He viii
veto all appropriations on district fairs,
except in two or three districts where
the people are poor and far from centers
of population. Appropriate tons for that
purpose will not exceed $4,000 and no
southern county will get anything-a
tribute to our prosperity. As a rule the
other appropriations will be signed. The
governor believes the rate, however, is

with a state liquor tax the rate could

A DESERTED WILL AGE
The Legislatures Say-so on State tn

tiVl W III Nv
SACRAMENTO, March 21.-(By As
sociated Press. )-If Sacramento depend
ed upon the members of the legislature
for its population it would be desert.
None remain except such as belong here.
There is very little speculation as yet
as to what action the governor will take
regarding the tax levy bill. though it is
believed he may approve it. Should he
exercise the veto power in that direction
and convene an extraordinary session of
the legislature he would have the same
set of men to deal with in which legisla-
ton would be blocked. For that rea-
son a number of members of both houses
early this morning expressed their be-
lief that he would approve the measure.
even though it conf1icted with his IDEAS
as to what the rate ought 10 be fixed at.
Even If approved as it now stands 1t
is estimated by the chairman of the
finance committee, VOORHEES,, that at
least 81, 700 900 of the claims, deficiencies
and appropriation bills will have to be
slaughtered, and parties interested are
doing some lively guessing as to where
the lightning will strike.
While everybody familiar with the
matter admits that the county govern
ment bill is far superior to that sent to
the governor two years ago, there are
those willing to lay dollars TO douehnuts
that It will receive the same treatment
as it's predecessor, pocket veto. Smith,
who fathered the bill, received the
thanks of the senate for the efficient
manner in which he handled it, but de-
clined to give an opinion as to what
would be its ultimate fate.
When the legislature adjourned with
out day, eutenant-Governor Jeter
was far and away the most popular man
in either house Throughout the ses-
sion his rulings had never been question
ed, much less appealed from. While act
ing as presiding officer of the senate he
knew no party. He was affable, kindly
and courteous, quick to detect errors in
his own judgment and manly enough to
correct them. Ea left the presidents

gard and esteem of every member re-

Residents of Cuba Said to Desire It.
New York, Feb 12-The Cuban
league of the United States, in an eff
fort to obtain information by its own
representative from the field of war.
sent a well known writer, whose name
is withheld, to Cuba with instructions
to observe closely matters on both
sides of the controversy and to faith
fully report thereon. His first letter,
dated Feb. 3, to the president of the
Cuban league, has just arrived. In it
he says:
Here is a fact of very grave i'm
portance upon which you may rely:
There exists here a very positive senti-
ment, carefully concealed of course,
among the people of property-Cuban,
Spanish and American-in favor of an
nexation to the United States They
are tired of war and want absolute
peace, security and prosperity under
the American flag. You must under
stand that this sentiment is not ex-
pressed openly, but l have had private
conferences with people of wealth and
high social standing, and I can assure
you that the sentiment in favor of an
neXation prevails generally.
1T is the intention of Weyler to alb
solutely eXterminate the Cuban race.
He has destroyed all the property of
the poorer classes, burned their houses,
cut down their orchards and uprooted
their plantations of every kind The
people are driven in droves toward
the towns, where they are herded in
vile sheds to die of smallpox, yellow
fever and famine. They are the poor
people who take no part in the war,
mostly women and children, and are
known as pacificoS.

The Arbitration Treaty.

Washington, Feb. 12.-When the senate
closed the doors this afternoon and took
uD the arbitration treaty there appeared
to be = desire to come to some under
standing as to the time when the vote
SHOULD be taken. The discussion became
almost general and consisted almost en-
tirely OF questions. cross-questions and
answers. with nothing definite resulting
therefrom.
Mr. Blackburn tDem.. Ky-) said the
close of the session was drawing nigh and
some conclusion ought to be reached The
senate should know whether il could
reach a vote at this session or whether Il
would be best to postpone action until
after the 4th of March. He was in favor
of postponement, as he did not think the
senate could give the treaty the consid-
Grafton the subject demanded at this SEES
sion and he intimated that he might
make a motion to postpone further action
until the session of the senate that would
be convened Immediately following the
inauguration OF Mckinley
Senator Hoar of Massachusetts urged
speedy action and was supported by Mr.
Sherman. who expressed the hope that
TIE matter would not be put over until
the next session
At 5 pm the senate adjourned until to-
morrow.
