Carried In . Bundle by q Man who Got Away
boy Swan Out and Got the Body.
While Charles Martin. q lad Of twelve, and a
companion named Thaddeus Rowan were play
ing near the foot Of East Twenty eighth street
at $3.50 o'clock last evening. they saw. as they
say, q smooth.faced man wearing a brown suit,
a brown hat, and patent leather shoes hurry by
toward the river. The man carried a bundle
wrapped in newspaper. Tho boys had read Of
the headless body which was found at tho foot
Of Eleventh street on Saturday, and they con-
cluded that tho stranger must be the murderer
returning to- make away with the head. So
they followed him, and saw him walk out on the
pier and throw the bundle into the river.
Then he hurried away, and when he was gone
the boys say they determined to recover the
bundle, which was floating out with the tide.
Martin swan to the bundle and brought 1t to
the pier. The package was tied with a common
cord, and when they opened 1t they discovered
the dead body of a very small infant boy, which
they say was still warm. The body was
wrapped up in cheese cloth.
Leaving the body on the pier, the boys hur-
to Policeman Bradley Of the East Thirty fifth
street station. The body was taken. to the
not more than two days old. The employees of
the Morgue said also that the body was still
warm when 1t was brought in, which led them
to believe that the child was alive when Ii WAS
thrown into the water.
When questioned by. the detectives of the
East Thirty-ffth street station, Martin and
Rowan stuck TO the story they had told to Po-
hceman Bradley. They said the man who threw
the infant overheard was tall. probably b feet IL
inches in height, and well built, with dark hair
and dark eyes. They also said that he wore a
white shirt and what looked In the uncertain
light like q white tie.

DEBS'S SCHEME A FIZZLE.
COLONIZATION OF SOCIAL DEMO-
GRATIS IN WASHINGTON ABANDONED.

rs, 900 Wen Willing to Re CoIonised. but They
Have No Money 60 Tut In the scheme, and
n Campaign OF Education Will ne subst-
tutcd for tho Dream OF Dcbs's Followers.
. MILWAUKEE, Wis, juno 2s.-The colonization
scheme Of Eugene V. Debs has collapsed. There
will not be a vast army Of social Democrats
marching upon tho State of Washington, but
only n handful OF agriculturalists, who will DO
sent out, n few at n time, as the Central Com
mittce is able to send them.
Victor l.. Berger, q leading Socialist Of NIL
waukee, who returned yesterday from n confer
enco with Debs at Chicago, announced the
abandonment of the great social democracy
plan. The reasons for the sudden change In
policy appear TO DO lack Of funds with which to
carry the colonists into the new State.
In place of the state that was to be reared on
socialistic principles there will be inaugurated
n campaign of education. Mr.. Berger said this
evening that nearly $4,000 men out OF employ
ment had responded to the call sent
out by Debs and the social Democrats. AS
plans for the undertaking progressed, he said,
many difficulties were met. There were legal
obstacles to carrying out tho proposed plan. and
much prejudice to DO overcome. The mon who
responded promptly to the call were without
funds to contribute to the undertaking. and
little assistance could BIO looked for In other
directions.
Debs said. however. that IL would not be given
up entirely. Colonists would DO sent out as
rapidly as means would permit, but only those
would be accepted who showed aptitude for
farming. Mr.. Berger denied that the collapse
of the colonization plan meant the abandonment
of the other projects decided upon by the recent
Chicago convention.
The social Democratic, party will be kept in
tact" said Mr.. Berger, and q strong CAM
paign Of education will be carried on. Al effort
will be made to bring the masses Of the people
to realize the need of a reform In the Methods Of
producing and distributing wealth."

DIR. Horne or Milwaukee Says He Sent In His
Bill Many Years AGo-It Hasn't Been Pntd.

Bill Many Year, AGO-It HASN'T Heeu Rnto.
JANEsvILLE. Wis. June 2s.-Queen Victoria
is said to be a debtor to n resident of this city to
the amount OF 500. DR.. William Horne says
she owes him that sum. He sold her a New
foundland dog, and she did not settle the bill.
In 1s4s DR.. Horne, then a resident of England,
was the owner of q valuable Newfoundland dog.
George r. Horne. o brother Of the Doctor. who is
now in Australia, was during his residence in
England acquainted with members Of the royal
family, and especially with Prince Albert. Mr..
Horne frequently had business transactions with
the Prince. and once told him of the merits of
this much-priZed dog. The idea OF the animal
finding a place In the Queens kennels seemed
to please the Prince. and n deal WAS at once
closed. The Doctor. feeling highly elated over
the honor. set about to prepare tho dog
for shipment, and q box that was fitted with
out and within with safety appliances, in
order that the dog might not be hurt, was
soon prepared. The journey to the royal ken
nels was then taken. The price agreed on was
geo. Weeks, months, and years passed, the
doctor says, and yet he did not receive his
money for that dog. nor did he even receive
thanks. Several letters from the doctors pen
were addressed TO different members of the
royal family. asking for an explanation. but
none of them was answered. The doctor Is now
OF the opinion that the prospects of receiving
his pay from the Queen are not the brightest,
and he has charged the 800 to his profit and
loss account.
