she had rented rooms. and procured
small quantity OF gasoline to clean
brass bedstead. Taking Il to her rooms
she used the stun In cleaning the bed
with n brush. while the cup containing
the oil stood ON the floor beside her. Her
little boy was playing on the floor. IL
was noticed that the gasoline had filled
the room with vapor and Veth struck "A
match to light his cigar. In an instant
there was an explosion and the room
was filled with flames The flames caught
the clothing OF Mrs. veth.
The husband caught up the child In his
arms and ran down stairs out OF the fire
A few seconds later he was followed by
his wife, who was screaming and en-
veloped In flames from head 10 foot. All
her clothing was burned and the wrapper
she wore fell from her in blazing strips.
At the landing on the second floor she
met Mrs. Solomon. the landisdy. and the
frantic woman threw her ,rms around
Mrs Solomon and begged her to save her.
Mrs. solomon dlsengaged herself only TO
be grasped again about the neck by the
agonized woman. She succeeded In shak-

cured n pitcher of water which she
poured on Mrs. Neth. This was repeated

Der OF the foreign affairs committee
Of the senate and the champion of
Cuba In that body. predicted In an in
terview tonight that the assasslna-
tion might be the forerunner OF a COM
plete change OF government, repub-
lie replacing the monarchy. This. he
thought. was the present tendency and
to-day's event he regarded as an evil
dence OF the distintegration OF the
Spanish government. He added:
This whole AFFAIR Is going to create
complete revolution throughout the
whole OF Spain. That country Is now
in very shaky condition. IL is true
doubtless that to-day's assassin was an
anarchist but the act Is representative
Of a Feeling that exists all over the
country. The republican party has al
ready attained great strength. although
of course its operations have to be
largely concealed Then the universal
testimony IL that the bulk OF the Span
ish army In Cuba Is made up Of young
men. This has broken up families all
over the land. and their dispatch to the
island to be led by Weyler has devel-
oped a powerful sentiment In Spain.
The assassinatio was the result OF
well developed system Of the most
deep-seated antagonism 10 the creed Of
the Carnovas party The Barcelona in
cident gave evidence Of the tremendous
anti-administration operations and the
stricken premier's endorsement of Wey-
Ter putting him in command OF Bar
celona. as that affair greatly added 10
Canovas' unpopularity. The indications
point tn the assassin as victim OF
that Barcelona incident.
THE successor Of Canovas Is prob
lematical. l believe. however. that the
administration will realize the over
whelming influence OF the opposition.
and having seen Canovas gotten out OF
the way will try some one with Cuban
views a degree removed from those of
Canovas In a liberal direction.
1T IL not probable. and IL Is quite
likely that Senior Praxedes Sagasta. the
distinguished liberal statesman. may
succeed Canovas as premier. Sagasta
Is 20 years old. was minister of the in
terror under the provisional govern
ment of 1868. president OF the cortes In
1871. and has occupied the post Of pre-
mier OF the Spanish government a
number of times. I believe that the Gu
ban conflict will be ended at the end

confident Of II. The termination OF the
affair will thus be brought about In

MINERS GAMING

Pittsburg, Aug. s.-Although to-day was
considered n day Of rest among the stri-
kcrs. probably the most effective work
among the Plum creek miners was per-
formed. and as "A result the strikers have
been assured that considerably less than
200 men will be at work tomorrow at the
mine.
A large mass meeting was held at
Camp Isolation at Plum creek this after
noon which. In addition Ia about iooo 9TH
ers, was attended by about 30 women.

who are stIli at work In the Plum creek
mine.
Notwithstanding tn. fact that deputies
visited the homes of these people this
morning and advised them not to attend
the meeting nearly every wife, brother
or husband with her. attended. Because OF
the many restrictions put on the
strikers they have hitherto been unable
TO get "A chance to argue their cause
with Plum creek workmen. and the occa-
sion given them to-day was taken ad-
vantage of TO the fullest extent. The un-
usual opportunity to-day was the result
OF the missionary work Of the wives Of
the strikers from Mcdonald, Finleyvile
aud Carnegie. These women have been
working asslduously during the past
week and secured the promise Of the
wives Of working miners TO attend the
meeting and bring their husbands.
The result OF the meeting was the as
surance from nearly 10 men that they
would Join the strikers tomorrow. The
plan II for the men 10 work until they

For these reasons the Spanish am

the course OF an interview, expressed
the hope that the news of the death
was premature. He said:
The belief that the crime Is not po-
litical. but the work of fanatical

that the criminal is an Italian. We all

He said: This deplorable event Will

litical affairs OF Spain. but to what
