SEVERE STORMS
Tear Up the Railroad Tracks in
Colorado

PUEBLO, Col, Aug 15.-Storms
around Pueblo this afternoon have dam
aged railroads north, east and south,
and trains on these lines will not be run
ming until morning. Twenty miles north
of Pueblo hail fell in great quantities
and drifted to a depth of three feet in
some places, while covering the surface
of the ground three inches. At Wigwam
the tracks Of the Denver and Rio Grande
road were so damaged by water running
over them two feet deep that trains be-
tween Colorado Springs and Pueblo had
to be sent over the Santa Fe railway.
The Union Pacific, Denver and Gulf had
a washout near the same place.
Twenty miles south of Pueblo cloud
burst sent Salt creek and the arroyos on
tear and damaged thousand feet of
Denver and Rio Grande tracks besides
the approaches to several bridges.
Trains will not be running before morn
ing. Until the water subsidies the full
extent of the damage cannot be learned
Chico creek, fifteen miles east of this
city, is badly swollen and has carried
out county bridge in addition to one
span of the Missouri Pacific bridge, so
that the train for st. Louis over that
line, like the Gulf train for Fort Worth
is tied up here for the night. Further
damage before morning is possible, since
some of the streams are said to be ris-
ing. No rain has fallen in Pueblo nor to
the west.

ANGIOLILLO is TRIED
BUT THE SENTENCE NOT MADE
PUBLIC
immigration Inspectors Search the
Transatlantic Steamers But Find
no Anarchists on Board

VERGERA, Spain. Aug. 15.-Michael
Angiolillo, alias Golli, was tried here
this morning by court martial for the
murder of Senor Canovas del Castillo
at the baths of Santa Agueda on August
Sth. The court consisted of lieutenant
colonel and six captains Of artillery.
All the statements of Angiolillo were
submitted in writing. The sentence of
the court martial will not be divulged
preme council of war.
The trial lasted two hours, the prose-
cution demanding that the extreme
penalty be inflicted upon the assassin.
When called upon to plead or to speak
in mitigation of punishment, the ac-
cused began rambling statement, but
was not allowed to proceed.
WATCHING FOR ANARCHISTS
NEW YORK, Aug. 15.-The Times to-
morrow will say: In obedience to the
orders Of Immigration Commissioner
Richie of this port the immigration in
spectors yesterday made special
search among the cabin and steerage
passengers of La Bretagne for Planas
and Tarrida Marmol, Spanish anarch-
lists, who have been ordered to leave
Europe since the assassination of Cano-
vas, and are expected here. The in
spectors said last night that they were
sure neither of the men was on La
Bretagne or any other vessel which has
arrived here. If found they will be
held subject to the decision of the COM
missioners. They will be sent back un-
less they can establish in the courts their
right to land. Several men suspected
with good reason Of anarchistic senti-
ments have been quietly deported dur
ing the last few years and none of them
arrested.
LONDON, Aug. 1.-THE correspond
ent Of the Daily Telegraph at Lucerne
has had a long interview with Don Car
los on the death of Canovas and Cuban
affairs. Don Carlos declared that the
American remonstrances and hints of
Intervention were balloons essai, which
ought not to be taken seriously. He said
that the United States, if those attempts
had been resoluely repelled by the Span
ish government, would have withdrawn
it's extravagant provisions. What was
wanted in Cuba, he urged, was I'M
lion, followed by generous concessions
to local requirements and aspirations.
In conclusion Don Carlos remarked:
"The Carlist movement in Spain has
greatly increased in strength and disci-
pline during the last decade. I am in
touch with every branch of it. There
will be no more futile risings or useless
bloodshedding, but when the time Is
ripe everybody will be ready to fight to
the death for the throne"
SPANISH POLITICS
MADRID, Aug. 15.-The political hori-
zon is menacing. Senior Romero Rob-
ledo has publicly declared for the reten-
ton of Captain General Weyler and
against any reconciliation with the dis
sident Conservatives. 1t Is expected
that this will upset the plans of the Con-
servative party and Of the court and
will compel the queen regent to summon
the Liberals.

ON FRIDAY
IN THE HOPE OF CHANGING THE
LUCK
If Practice Makes Perfect, the Rob-
bins-Winslow Wedding Ger
tainly Ought to Stick

KANSAS CITY. Mo-. Aug. 15.-The ro-
mantle marriage of DR.. Henry Winslow
of st. Louis, formerly of Denver, and
Miss Frances Robbins of the latter
named city is just announced. 1t took
place Friday evening at St. Luke's hos
pital in this city, where DR.. Winslow lay
i'll as the result of an operation. Miss
Robbins had come on from st. Louis and
Immediately after the ceremony left for
Denver to attend her mother, who is
also Ill.
Mrs. Winslow is the daughter of DR..
A. b. Robbins prominent physician of
Denver. She was formerly Mrs. Walter
Marden. In Chicago a few years ago
she married the son of the president Of
the wealthy type foundry firm Of Mar
der, Luse & Co. After two years there
was a suit for divorce because of the at
tentions to Mrs. Marder by DR.. Wins
low, who had known her in Denver.
Meanwhile DR.. Winslow married Miss
Gussie Campbell of st. Louis. Miss
Campbell was formerly Mrs, William
Spencer, but had been divorced and had
her maiden name restored. The wedding
of DR.. Winslow and Miss Campbell had
taken place in Chicago, where the young
doctor and Mrs. Marder met again.
Mr. and Mrs. Marder and DR.. and Mrs
Winslow all returned to st. Louis. Two
months after Mrs. Marder was granted
a divorce DR.. Winslow disappeared. Mrs.
Marder also disappeared about the same
time Mrs. Winslow, formerly Mrs
Spencer, nee Campbell, brought suit for
divorce and 1t was granted her. Wins
low, it seems. had gone to Denver, the
home of his parents. Soon afteD Mrs.
Winslow secured the decree, Mrs. Mar
der, who since her divorce had assumed
her maiden name, Frances Robbins,
came to Kansas City, ostensibly to visit
friend.
DR.. Winslow was already here. After
an operation for appendicitis had been
successfully performed, however, and
Miss Robbins had received a call to the
bedside of her sick mother, it was de-
cided that there should be no further de-
lay and Rev. DR.. Cameron Mann of
Grace Episcopal church performed the
ceremony at the hospital.

FELTs FLEW
But Nobody Knows Where He Is

COLORADO SPRINGS, Col, Aug 15
w. B. Felts was deferred today also
in making his leap from the summit of
Pixies Peak. A snow storm ragged from
early morning to late this evening. Many
people went to Manitou for the purpose
of going to the peak to see Felts jump,
but did not make the ascent on account
of unfavorable weather.
William B. Felts, the man who pro-
posed to jump from Pixies Peak, is miss
ing. He was last seen on Friday, when
he left the signal station, saying he was
going for a short walk down the car
riage road towards the town of Cascade.
Since then nothing has been seen or
heard of him by those most interested in
his movements. The flying machine is
still on the peak, and opinions are di-
vided as to the cause of the disappear
ance between a temporary absence, an
accident on the cliffs, suicide or the loss
of nerve. Nearly 400 people visited the
peak today to see the missing flyer.
