THE PAPERS SYMPATHIzE
But Find Consolation In Knowing the AS-
 SaSSin Was Not a Spaniard.

Madrid, Aug. 9.--In the course of an interview this afternoon Senor Sagasta, te liberal leader, said
 The country's politics must not de- pend upon an assassin. The conserya- tives ought to remain in power under the guidance of men like Marshal Cam pos, Sen9re ] Pitanos and Senor Elducan. Nevertheless, if the queen regent ap- ealsftoetheeHberals they are ready to re- spond."
 The funeral of Senor Canovas will take place probably on thursday. Tomorrow the remains will lie here in state. The Spanish newspapers without regard to differences of. political opinion express their horror and indignation at the crime and their satisfaction that the assassin is not a Spaniard. It is probable that the law for the repression of anarchy, which has heretofore been enforced only in Barcelona and Madrid, will be extend ed At6' the whole country. There is a good deal of speculation as to the effect of the loss of Canovas upon the conserv- ative party.
 Gen. Azaracarqua is very popular on account of his skill in organizing sup plies and endorsements for Cuba, and the Philippines. and he may be able to keep the party together, but many good judges take gloomy view of the situa- tion and lament the absence of the civil statesman of the calibre of Canovas.

THE CONTINENTAL PRESS
DeplOreS the Hand Of AnarChiSm and De-
 mandS Its Suppression.

London, Aug. 10-The French capital is occupied with the political rather than the anarchistic, aspect of the case.
 The press both opposition and gov ernment voice ths strongest denuncia- ton of the crime and urge strong meas French social newspapers indulge in a rather heartleSS vein For instance, La Petite Republique says:
 "He who strikes shall himself be struck. The history of the Canovas min istry Is written with blood. He revived antiqu4 barbarism and so deserved his fate" saa
 This, however, is exceptionally cynical All the respectable journals express sympathy, ,y-ss7 Y -
 La Patrie declares that all such plots must have been hatchea in London and calls upon ths poliee to watch the coun- try that produces such criminals.
 The German papers call for European action to suppress anarchy
 The Berlin Tageblatt asserts that Goll was chosen by ballot taken by the Lon don Central Anarchist society.
 The Vienna papers express sympathy with Spain and condemn anarchism.
 The Italian papers condemn the work of an Italian against sister nation,l as Spain is always called.
 Premier Rudini in an interview today spoke in terms of the highest praiss of the resources of General Azzaragua and continued: "He has only friends in both parties.''
 The Daily News comments editorialiy this morning on the "fatuity of allowing a notorious anarchist to travel with Canovas.' s
 It adds: "All talk about the independ- ence of Cuba or a Spanish republic is wide of the mark. If the Cubans or rev olutionists are guilty of the anvances at tribued to them they ought to be ashamed of tn smselves,"

 Rt Rev. Edward P Allen, the success sor of the late Rt. Rev. J. J. O'Sullivan as bishop of the diocese of Alabama, will pay his first visit to this city this week. It is thought that he will be here about Wednesday. aEA
 Dr. Hughes commission as postmaster did not arrive yesterday as was expected and he did not take charge of the af- fairs of the office. The commission, as told in the Age-Herald, has been made out and signed all right but it has been somewhat delayed in the transmission. It is expected here daily and Dr. Hughes will take charge just as soon as it comes. It is supposed that the delay comes from the fact that the postmaster general is absent from Washington, and until he returns the commission can not be made out.

Case of Nselieenea

Yesterday afternoon, Louis Phillips, colored, applied for a certificate of buli- al in order that he might bury his ten months old daughter. The Certificate was refused him as no physician had waited on the child, and he had no reSu- larly signed certificate of death. This caused suspicion and Coroner Burkhalt- CT was notified. He made an examina- tion and found what he thought were suspicious circumstances in the mann CT of the child's death. At his orders the body was removed to the Miller X co. s undertaking establishment on Third ave- nue where another investigation was made After some time Coroner Burk- halter made out certificate of death at tributing the cause solely to neglect. The little remains wi.i be intered in pau pers grave over Red mountain today.

 and Caused Him UneaSineSS.

London, Aug. 10.-zA dispatch from Rome says that Gollfs name is not known to the Italian police. No convic- tion is recorded at Naples or Lucera against a person of that name.
 Other dispatches from Rome, cor roborated by official reports, say the real nama of Goll is Guisepps Santo. If this is so it is a remarkable coincidence, for the name of the assassin of President Carnot was CaesaPo Santo.
 A dispatch from Madrid says that Golli saluted Premier Canovas with great po- 1itenesS every morning. His effusivenesS excited the suspieionso of RTemifrn Cano- vas, who mentioned it to the proprietor of the baths. only to be treasured by him.
 It is said Golli followed S'enor Canovas from place to place waiting for an oppor- tunity when he could surely strike him. He expressed his regret that he had bsen unable to kill Gen. AXieljaIw who was gov Rfzal was killed last December. He re- garded him as the assassin of Rizal.

THE SENATORIAL CAUCUS.

Washington, Jan 15.-The adjourned
Republican Senatorial caucus which was
held in the Senate marble room to-day
did not result in any changes in the bill
for an international bimetallic conference
as drafted by the caucus committee. 1t
was stated in the caucus that there had
been some interchange of views with
Democratic Senators and that one Of
them and expressed the opinion chat the
word unlimited" as well as the word
free" should be used in describing the
mintage which such a conference is as
is proposed would be called to secure, but
the caucus decided not to make the addi-
ton. The discussion which took place
developed that the Senators were of opin-
ion that the one term really embraced the
other. 1t was stated that the language
employed was precisely the language
which had been used in the legislation
providing for the four previous confer
ences on the same subject and it was
urged that any change in wording might
injure the prospects Of securing con
ference with the European nations
Senator Chandler therefore, was au-
thorized to introduce the bill as prepar-
ed by the caucus committee, which he
will probably do on Monday as Senator
Wolcott's representative.
