POISON IN THE COFFEE.
A Mother and Four Children Dead rs
the Result.

the Result.
Schuyler, Neb.. Oct. 4--DurinE ths
forenoon Frank Steinad came hastily in
from Shell Creek precinct nine miles
northwest, to summon physician to
the home of Frank Davis, where he
said the whole family had been poi
soned. DR.. Sixta fastened out and found
four of the seven children in the family
and their mother dead, fifth child in
a dying condition and a sixth victim
sick. Mr.. Davis and his Oldest son went
away early in the morning, leaving be-
fore the rest of the family breakfasted.
When the meal was prepared those re-
naming sat down and early in the
course of the meal Mrs. Davis made
some such remark as: Eat a good
breakfast and we'll all go together"
One of the older sons mind was af-
fected by the remark to the extent that
he did not appease his appetite. A
daughter, younger than the son. after
drinking about half a cup Of coffee be-
came sick and vomited. The rest Of the
family continued the morning meal, all
though the children made very wry
faces and said the coffee did not taste
good. Strychnne had been put into the
coffee, which showed its effect, when
those not Frustrated spread the alarm,
but not soon enough to avoid the fatal
effects noted.

PREMIER SAGASTA'S TASK,
General Weyler NJ Hight Refuse to Obey
Orders If Recalled

General Weyler Might Refuse to Obey
Orders If Recalled.
Madrid, Oct. 4.-Senor Sagasta, the
Liberal leader. has been entrusted by
the queen regent with the task Of form
Ing new cabinet. In succession to the
Azcarraga ministry. 1t is expected that
the Sagasta cabinet will be completed
and announced today. General Correa
has accepted the portfolio Of minister
Of war. and Admiral Bennejo becomes
minister of marine.
II is perfectly understood in Madrid
that General Weyler is the cause of the
ministerial crisis. The queen as well as
Azcarraga object to his continuation in
Cuba. But a strong military party,
mostly composed of officers who have
obtained promotions and decorations
from General Weyler during his pre-
vious military campaign, support him
In Madrid. They have become insistent,
now that the question arises of recall
ing him. Another strong military party
in Cuba. composed Of the same sort Of
men, threaten hostile demonstrations in
case General Weyler is not recalled.
Weyler is entirely capable of disobey-
lilS IL 1ttdIltu AS captain gem
eral of the Canary Islands. on pre-
vtOus occasion, he refused to obey
orders of recall and the government
had to resort to energetic measures to
compel his obediance. Weyler now de-
clares that he has contract with the
Spanish government and that by that
contract he is given two years for end
ing the war in Cuba. and that the
term has not expired.
The ministerial changes will not af-
feet the Instructions which United
States Minister Woodford originally re-
ceived from President Mckinley. Both
General Wcodford and Senior Sagasta,
the premier. maintain absolute reserve
OH the question of American relations
to Spain. Leading Liberals, however,
declare that Spain can never officially
accept American mediation In Cuban
affairs.
