His Mother Declares the Man Who
Would Perpetratc Such a Crime
Ought to be Hung Even If He Is
Her SOn-Mrs. RathbOne Killed in
the CeIIar-Her Daughter Enticed
Into a Bed Room and Her Throat
Cut.

bone and her daughter Mary.
The confession was made to Chief of Po-
lice Grenier and the county attorney.
Storms says he committed the deed Sum
day night, Jan. %. He killed the mother
first in the cellar. Then he enticed the lit
tie girl into the bedroom above and after
a terrible struggle to outrage her, cut her
throat.
The confession was obtained after long
siege of sweatbox examination.
After it was obtained Storms was taken
to the morgue, although he begged not to
see the bodies of his victims. He turned
sickly pale and trembled violently when
he gazed upon his victims.
Threats of lynching are heard on all
sides. Storms and Cox, an alleged ac-
complice, are. now locked up in the county
Jail and strongly guarded by deputies with
Winchester rifles.
Sheriff Smith has issued a proclamation
to the effect that any attempt to break
into the Jail and lynch Storms will be
met with summary treatment by the dep
uties, who will not hesitate TO shoot.

DEPARTMENT OF PUBLIC HEALTH


to It's Creation.
Washington, Jan. Sl-Senator Vest from
the Senate committee on public health. to-
day made a report upon the bill providing
for the creation of department of public
health.
The report is adverse to the proposition,
and 1t recommends as a substitute bill
for the enlargement OF the powers of the
Marine hospital service.
The report says the first bill would de-
prive the Marine hospital service of it's
jurisdiction over quarantine matters, and
that change so radical would be impol-
itic and dangerous.
The opinion Is expressed that IL a health
department Is to be established II should
be gradually done, and that a transition so
sudden as that proposed would leave the
Gulf states without quarantine precaution
against yellow fever for time at least.
The government is advised to continue
the present system and to enlarge the
quarantine powers Of the hospital service
by giving the President, through the SER
vice, the right TO resort to measures TO
prevent the spread of contagious diseases
from one state to another. The commit
tee enters into quite an extended argument
to show that such a provision would not
be unconstitutional

French interests in Spanish bonds"
"The object of my mission abroad was to
place before the Red Cross societies of the
different nations the manner in which our
sick and wounded have been treated in
Cuba. 1 sent a manifesto to the Red Cross
societies i'm Vienna, and talked with prom
inent physicians and officials with a view
of inducing France and other nations to
bring pressure to bear upon Spain to rec
ognize our Red Cross organization in Cuba.
All that we want as to have our wounded
treated like those of other nations"
He said that in this matter he had been
promised the aid of persons of influence,
but he did not know whether Spain would
grant their request or not.

Washington, Jan. 31-Chairman Jones

the matter would be presented to Senator
Jones in an official manner and the cor
respondence laid before him.
Senator Jones Informed Mr. Garman
that the power of removal of a member
OF the national committee rested wholly
with the committee itself, and that he
would take the papers in the case when
submitted TO him ana send a
copy to Mr.. Harrity, giving
him an opportunity to make a reply and
present his side of the case After both
sides had been fully heard he would take
all The correspondence and papers in the
case and send a copy to each member Of
the committee and get an expression of
opinion as to what should be done. The

roads suspended work, and the poor were
suffering through hunger and cold. Prices

yond the reach of the poor.
When the Portia was working her way
out to sea she was closely followed by the
