him. The motion was sustained, and
Carr was released.
The case against the other defendant,
Robinson, will be argued tomorrow, and

on the weakness of the lack of evidence
on the part Of the State sufficient to

gineer Webster have made formal re-
turns to the navy department of the

CHICAGO'S NEW COLISEUM.
Mammoth Structure Planned That
Will Seat $4,000.

Chicago, July 3O.-The arrangements
have been perfected by a number of
capitalists for the construction of a
colossal amusement and convention

cupied by the Chicago baseball team,

date set for the completion of the
mammoth structure.

planned structure $1,000. The height

CAMARA'S VICTORIOUS RETURN.
Arrival of Fleet at Cadiz Aroused No
Enthusiasm,


New York, July 30.-A dispatch to the
Tribune from Gibraltar says: Admiral
Camara's squadron, consisting OF the
flagship Pelayo,t the Emperador, Carlos
V, the Rapido, the Patricia, the Bue-
nos Ayres. the Audaz and the Pielago,
left Carthagena Tuesday afternoon,
and, passing through the straits of Glib
raltar at night, without being observed,
arrived on Wednesday morning at Ca
diz. The Lepanto and two torpedo
boat destroyers remain at Carthagena.
Admiral Camara's arrival at CadiZ
aroused no enthusiasm whatever
among the people, who. on account of
the rigorous press censorship, remain
the outside world.
While in Cadiz on Wednesday, the
Tribune correspondent noticed that the
universal desire of the civilian popu-
lation remaining there was for peace
at any price. Everyone seemed heart
lily sick OF the war The losses to the
commercial classes, owing to the COM
plete stagnation of business of every
description. has told terribly upon the
merchants, and the only persons who at
all favor continuing the war are a few
military officials and functionaries.
General Orehan, the newly appointed
commander of the defenSes at CadiZ,
is fastening the construction of new
batteries. Much of the coast defense
artillery in position consists of old
fashioned pieces, and there is a great
deficit of ammunition for the new
krupp guns recently mounted.

IRON AND STEEL BOOM.
Works Running Extra Time and
Behind In Their Orders.

Chicago. July 3O.-Iron and Steel to-
day says: Whatever may be the for
eign trade in American iron and steel
and that question is now most vital
one-there can be no uncertainty about
the domestic consumption. Within the
past week conditions among some of
the sellers, who weeks or months ago
booked many orders for future deliv-
cry, have been growing more serious.
The buyers wanted the material they
had bargained for; they in many in
stances wanted it in even larger guam
titles than they had arranged to re-
ceive it; and when. in reply to their
specifications, they were favored with
explanations, excuses and promises,
but no shipments, their business be-
came more or less deranged. 1t is re-
markabte that quite a number of the
large consumers of iron and steel are
now running their works day and
night. Their surplus product has been
cleaned out, their stocks are bare, and
although the season is ordinarily ended
at this time, they are making siren
uous efforts to fill an urgent demand

liam M. Stewart, in reference to the
terms of peace now being considered at

claim of sovereignty in such islands.

items in treaty of peace. The United
States should dictate-not negotiate
the terms of peace. the same as Ger
many did to France. If Spain would
absolutely withdraw all claim to the
islands within the influence of our
present military operations, would
exact no further indemnity, but if She
continues the war, our claims, as COM
pensation. must be enlarged for the eS-
pense which the United States would

THE "vEILED MURDERESS."
She Is Charlotte Wood and Murdered
Her Husband

Chicago, July 30.-Mrs. C. P. Morris
of Chicago confirms the report that the
mysterious prisoner in Mattewan, N.
Y, whose identity has been concealed
for years under the name of Henrietta
Robinson, the yelled murderess,'' is
Charlotte Wood of Quebec, Canada.
Mrs. Morris and Charlotte Wood were
schoolmates in 1884 in Wizards semi
nary, Troy, n. Y. The Wood family at
that time occupied a prominent posi-
ton in Canadian society. Charlotte
Wood, after leaving the seminary, mar
ried Sir VIM. Elliott, an English army
officer. The marriage is said to have
turned out unhappily. and the wife be-
came drunkard. The prisoner was
insane at the time of the poisoning of
which she was convicted, at least Mrs.
Morris so believes.
