Spain, Senior Canovas de Castillo, who
was shot and killed Sunday by An
archist Golli.
The body of the Spanish statesman

ter for the Colonies, Senior Co.'S -Gayon,
and the Chief Major Domo, the Duke of
Sot, representing the Queen Regent.

cian an Admiral, the President of the

and Marshal Martinez de Campos. The

A dispatch from Lucerne, Italy, says
the Italian police have identified Coli,
the assassin of Senor Canovas, as
Michel Angiolino. He is 33 years Of
age. and was born at Foggia Capital of
the province Of that name, in the Apu-
lian Plain His military record was very
limited He proved an Indifferent and
disobedient soldier, and was sent for
three years service in the disciplinary
battalion. Subsequently he became
compositor. In April, 1896, he was SEN
fenced to eighteen months imprlson-
ment for disseminating anarchistic
propagandas, but after serving a part
of his term, he escaped to Spain. He
comes of an honest family. His father,
who is a tailor is grief stricken by the
crime of his son.
A dispatch from Santa Agueda says
the funeral cortege accompanying the
remains 6 Senior Canovas left the bath
ing establishment this morning, accom-
panied by the Duke of Solomayor, rep
resenting the Queen Regent, and Senor
OdSl6IldHO, 4nlIllolCl LOI Liz CSASAAANS'
and Senior Elduayan. The coffin, COW
cred with wreaths, among them one
from the Queen Regent, was borne on a
car drawn by four horses. A detach-
ment of Husseurs rendered military
honors, and acted as an escort.
A special funeral train waited the ar
rival of the cortege at Zuarraga. Al
most at the very moment of the trans
fer of the coffin from the funeral car to
the train a foreigner was arrested at the
telegraph office. He is suspected of
being an accomplice of the assassin.
Sonora Canovas watched by the body
of her husband for two nights, one night
with Senior CASTELAR, and the other with
Senor Castillo. She absolutely re-
fused to take either food or rest, but
discussed all the details of the funeral,
and broke down to-day on the road to
the Zummarragara, when a severe ner-
vous fit was happily relieved by flood
OF tears.
At the special request of Sonora Can
ovas, the remains will lie in state at the
private instead of the official residence
of the deceased. The Government plan
was for lying in state at the official
residence.
The Queen Regent has ordered a spe-
cial mass tomorrow for the repose of
his soul.
President Mckinley has cabled to the
Spanish Government the condolences of
the United States Government and the
people.
1t is understood that General Martinez
Campos is willing to go to Cuba, should
the Cabinet decide to recall Weyler.
1t is also rumored that General Pola-
vieja, former Governor of the Philip
pines, will be invited to succeed Weyler.
But these are only rumors, and thus far
there is no indication of abrupt changes
either in the administration of Cuba or
in the constitution of the Cabinet.
The Government has decided to try
the assassin by court martial. He has
defiantly declared that other startling
crimes will follow The police and Gov
ernment detec ives are acting with great
vigilance, and the Government is in
with foreign Capitals on
the question of surveillance of anarch-
lists.
ANARCHISTS GLORY OVER HIS
DEATH
NEW YORK, Aug. 10. = The New
York anarchists are in excellent spirits
over the assassination of Premier Can
ovaS.
Herr Most said: This despot got
what he deserved. Canovas was the
greatest prosecutor of anarchists ever
known in Spain. He hunted them like
rats. I don't think it is settled yet that
an anarchist killed him. The Cubans,
the Republic and the Philippinists had
just as much cause for complaint as
the anarchists. Canovas did all he
could to Cypress the people. But perse-
cution only incites anarchists to great
er deeds of bravery.
1T is a wonder that this hell hound
did not get killed long ago. He COM
mitted many outrages. He was man
of Nero's stamp, the most hellish hend
that ever lived. He used all means of
oppression towards the liberal minded
men,
Spain was on the verge Of a reyolu
tion, and he was in the game to gain;
or lose everything. The country was
bankrupt and all Of SPANS deninions
were in rebellion He did his utmost to
strike terror into the hearts Of the
people Such men as Canovas are rare
I don't think he'll ever have a success

There must be something in the eli
