SHOT IN THE CHEST.
Youngest Daughter of Ex-senator
Blackburn Seriously Wounded.

Washington, Jan. II. - In ner apart
ments in the Wellington hotel Mrs. Luz
ellie Lane, youngest daughter of ex-Sena-
tor ole Blackburn of Kentucky, shot her
SELF According to the statement given
out by the family the shooting was acct
dental. Both of Mrs. Lanes physicians
refused to discuss the subject even to the
extent of saying whether or not the
wound would prove fatal, but from the
best that can be learned she will probably
recover, although suffering severely from
the shock A friend of the family nomi-
mated to give out statement said at mid
night on Saturday Mrs. Lane was prepar-
ing to retire Her husband at the time
was in the adjoining room looking over
the paper. Mrs. Lane opened Il bureau
drawer to get handkerchief and picked
up handful of gloves and laces which
had been tossed together in the drawer.
Under this fluffy mass was tiny lady's
pistol, gift to Mrs Lane from her faith
er, and possession of which she was par
ticularly fond. 1t caught in piece of lace
as she raised her hand, and, falling of its
own weight, struck the hammer on the
edge of the open drawer. The pistol ex-
ploded and the ball penetrated her left
breast.
What became of the ball it is impossible
to say. According to the statement given
out it struck a rib and ranged around be-
meath the left shoulder, making only a
superficial wound. At the same time it is
said Mrs Lane is suffering so from the
shock that the physicians have devoted
all their energies to rallying her without
attempting to ascertain the extent of the
injury.
Lucille was the youngest daughter of
Senator Blackburn. She was married in
1895 to Thomas F. Lane, prominent bus
mess man and politician of Summit, n. j.
At the time of the marriage Mr. Lane
was a chief of division in the treasury de-
partment. Subsequently he accepted a
place with the Maxim Arms Company of
New York as their agent in Washington.
The position is reputed to be a good one
and the Lanes had apparently always an
abundance of money, which they spent
freely, living at a fashionable hotel and
seeming to lack none of the good things
of life. Their little girl, something over a
year OLD, was one of the favorites about
the house with all who knew her, and the
particular pride Of her mother. Mr.. and
Mrs. Lane, according to those who saw
them every day, were unvaryingly affec-
tionate and attentive to each other and
she, while of slight physique, was in ex-
cellent health.

CONDITIONS OF CHINA's LOAN.
England VIII Advance S6O,OOO,OOo
With Certain Safeguards.

London, Jan. lS.-The Pekin correspon-
dent of the Times says:
Yesterday Sunday Sir Charles Claude
Macdonald, British ambassador to China,
in the course of an interview with the
Tsung Ii Yamen (board of foreign con-
trol), stated that England was willing to
assist China to liquidate the japanese in
demnity and would provide loan of 9l2,-
100000 at par, to run for so years, the in
terest to be 4 per cent net, including sink
ing fund. The conditions are rs follows
First: The opening of the three treaty
ports, the Talien Wan, SiangIn and Nan
Ming, thereby increasing the customs rev
enues. Second: A declaration that no
portion of the Yang Use Kiang valley shall
be coded to any other power. Third: The
right to extend the Burmah railway
through Human province 1.-THE most south
western part of China).
In the event of her default China is tC
place certain revenues under the control
of the imperial customs. On this basis the
negotiations will proceed. China regard,
them as advantageous, but fears the
threatened opposition of France and Rus
STA, and especially to the opening of Ia
lien-Wan and Manning.
The Times, commenting on the report
suggests that Siang-In, which the CORE
spondent describes as in Human, is a tele
| graphic error and means either Slang
Yang, in Hu-Poi province, or Slang Tang
in Human province.

Horrors Not Half Dentcted.

Tampa, Fla, Jan. 10.-After spending
several weeks making personal investi-
cation of the situation in Cuba. Con-
gresham King of Utah arrived here last
night. His tour covered four provinces
and was thorough.
Speaking of his trip he said: II made
1t my duty to learn just what the con-
ditions were, and found that no one has
ever half depicted the awful horrors of
the reconcentrados. These people, naked
and emaciated, are dying like sheep in
the streets of the towns where they are
still huddled. To realize just what this
means one must see for himself.
II found that the Spanish people have
very little faith in the astronomical gov
eminent for they are strongly in favor
of annexation, and want it at once. Cen
eral BlancO has not succeeded in his eff
forts to alleviate the suffering, for he
has not had financial means to carry it
out. l have interviewed insurgent lead
ers, Spanish officers and Americans, and
have some definite idea of what is going
on in that terribly devastated island. I
know positively that General Lee is not
going out with General Blanco to see
General Gomez" AS Mr. King saw
General Lee, he evidently speaks with

Blew Out the Gas.

Boston, Jan. 10.-Antonio Zanni and
Luigi Dalcc, both of Lawrence, regis
tered at the Hotel Columbus in this city
at 1920 o'clock last night The attach
es of the hotel detected the fumes of gas
coming from the room occupied by the
two men shortly after 2 o'clock this
morning on the fourth floor of the build
ing, and upon breaking in the door both
men were found lying on the bed.
An examination showed that Zanni
was dead, and Dalce was nearly so. The
latter was FASTENED to the City hospital,
where it was thought his life could not
be saved but at o'clock todayhe rallied
and seemed likely to pull through.
The position in which the men were
found showed that they had awakened
and had struggled toward the window of

men blew out the gas thus allowing the
poisonous fumes to fill the room.

SLAIN w TIL AXE,
An IndOlent Fellows Crime In Plymouth
County, Mas.


Marshfield, Mass, Jan Gland made
historic from being a part of Daniel
Webster's farm last night achieved no.
toriety as the scene of a murder and
suicide. for in the house at the corner
of Canal street and Green Harbor road,
about one-quarter of a mile fl ON the
old WindsloW house, Charles A. V. Hay
ward killed his wife and then cut his
throat.
The terrible deed, to all appearances,
was either the outcome of a quarrel, or
Hayward was maddened by liquor, for
when in his cups his Incidence changed
10 a wild frenzy Just what happened
leading up to the murder is not yet clear
ly explained, as the only witness of it, a
sister of Mrs. Hayward, is so unnerved
by excitement and shock that she cam
not clearly tell the story.
The first known of the murder was
when a young woman, laboring under
great excitement and without wraps or
hat, rushed into the Green Harbor tele-
phone office and said that her brother
in-law had killed his wife, her sister. She
told where and how the tragedy had oc-
Cured. The operator sent for Captain
A. 7. Sprague, one of the selectmen but
he was so surprised that the girl had to
explain. She said that Hayward chased
his wife out Of the house with an ak and,
catching her in the road, cracked her
skull open. Then Hayward dragged his
wife SO feet or more into the yard of the
house. The girl, after witnessing this
deed, rushed down the road crying for
help and did not stop anti the village
was reached. She then thought of the
telephone office as the quickest method
of getting the desired aid
Captain Sprague Immediately sum
moned Constable John Baker, sent word
to DR.. Noyes Of Duxbury, and started
for the Hayward farm, which is near the
Daniel Webster place. The farm is well
known to the many persons who visit the
Webster homestead. BY the time Cap
tain Sprague and Constable Baker
reached the scene several neighbors had
reached the house, where they found
Mrs. Hayward's body as described by her
sister The body lay where it had been
dragged, the dirt and blood having COW
cred the face, neck arms and clothing.
The ak with which the deed was done
was beside the body. DR. Noyes ex-
amined the body and expressed an opin-
ion that the blow which fractured the
skull was evidently so heavy that it
caused death in few minutes.
Hayward was not to be seen and a
party of neighbors began a search of all
the farm buildings. Under one of them
Hayward was unearthed, a sorry sight,
for he was literally matted with blood
and mud. 1t was not noticed at the mo-
ment that the blood was moist, and it
was not until Constable Baker took
charge of the prisoner that it was seen
that the latter had badly cut his throat.

Die Cast For Strike.

Boston, Jan. 1O.-The die has been cast
for strike of spinners in two cities
against the reduction in wages ordered
throughout the cotton mills of New Eng
land At the meeting of the committee
of the National union of Mule Spinners
in this city Sunday, the UNANIMOUS
decision reached was that the plan pro-
posed by the manufacturers for reliev-
ing the congeested state of the cloth
market was so impracticable and I'M
warranted as to justify the organization
in sanctioning a labor war. In proof
of the assertion that the wrong method
was devised, reference was made to
the lowering of the price of pr Mt cloth
following Immediately upon the an
nouncement of the proposed cheapening
of manufacture. Two cities were Sc
lected as the battle grounds for the pro-
posed contest-New Bedford ard Lowell.

A Mvsterv Solved.

Selma, Ala, Jan. 9.-News came from
Tuscaloosa that Rice Banks, a negro, has
surrendered to the sheriff of that place
He confesses to having been party to the
murder of Lon Wilson, wealthy coun-
try merchant near Akron, in Hale coun-
ty, two years ago. He says Wilson's
three nephews are equally guilty with
him. One of them committed suicide in
Meridian, Miss, several months ago and
left a statement that his life had been so
full of dark deeds that he could find no
rest this side of the grave. Wilson, the
murdered man, was found dead in his
store, pinioned and gagged. The con-
tortions on his face showed that he died
of suffcation. A large sum of money was
missing. The murder has been a great
mystery, and the confession of the negro
Banks is equally great surprise.
