This is accounted for by the bitter fight
that is being waged against Senator
Quay by the Business Mems league,
headed by John Wanamaker.
From Lancaster county, the returns
thus far indicate that Senator Quay
has elected his delegates to the state
convention by nearly 1000 majority.

F|END|SH MURDER

Ex-Member of Police Force Kills
His Paramour in a
Park.

Washington, June Pain broad daylight
and in the presence of number of people
murder, fiendish in its atrocity, was COM
United In one Of Washington's public parks
this evening.
George Horton, an exmember of the
Washington police force and Jane Nichol-
son, divorced woman were sitting about
o'clock on bench in Armory square at
-Four and one-half street and Missouri
avenue. The woman announced to Horton
that she proposed no longer to sustain her
relations with him and was about to rise
from the bench and leave him when he
swiftly drew small pen knife from his
pocket and with blade ground to a razor
edge, slashed her across the throat. Her
screams in a few seconds attracted scores
of people who were in the park and In its
vicinity.
The persons who swere- Witnesses OF the

IN taking possession of the group and ad-

that the president will embark upon such

The president will not call for additional

fifty thousand men would be enough, sbut
from source which has not usually gone
wrong in dealing with future events. L

would be for 100000 men. This will make

last call is to be held as a reserve force.
in case of other complications now unfore-
seen.
The men under the new call will come
into the service as raw recruits without
even preliminary training, without arms or
anything else which a soldier needs. Army
experts say that 1t is as well to call FOR
volunteers in this way as 10 call for them
to be enrolled from the national guard OF
state guard. Under the first call II was
shown how unequipped the guard was lot
service. The majority of those VINO re-
sponded from the national guard were
necessary camp equipage, and practicaliy
all without wagons, mules harness. ana
other articles which go to make up well
equipped army. AS the volunteers poured
into camp it was seen that what the
country was gathering was not an army
ready for the field, but a great mass oil
patriotic recruits, splendid material for an
army, but not army.
All the time since then has been spent
getting them licked into shape, making
soldiers out of them by dint of drlll ana
discipline. This work, stupendous under
the circumstances. has been about accom-
plished and the war; only two months and
two days old finds this mass of men ready
for the field and to fight.
The raw recruits under the new call Will
go into the camps and be seasoned slowly.
They will not be used possibly unless Ger

die with the fate of the Philippines or any

SPAIN DISAPPOINTED
AT SHAT TER'S SUCCESS

London, June A.-All the special des-
patches from Madrid reflect the anxiety
produced by Admiral Cervera's despatch
and the Threatening aspect of the political
situation. There is no doubt the Spaniards
are sadly disappointed at the ease with
which General Shafter effected landing
and at the retreat towards Santiago, which
is regarded as a bad omen.
The newspapers are irritated at the pros
pect that restrictions will be placed upon
their criticisms now that the cortes is
closed.
The Madrid correspondent Of the Stand
ard, commenting upon the scenes in the
cortes says: Everybody observed the ST.
lence of the Carlist senators and deputies

structed them to abstain as the expecta-
lions of Don Carlos lie more in the direc-

The Presidents Course

One friend predicts that the course which
the president will pursue will be to accord
to the insurgents an autonomy with this
government holding a suzerainety over
them, and occupying the port of Manila
until the war debt Is paid. This would give
to the natives the right to govern them
selves in all their domestic affairs, while
it would afford them protection against
other powers. This would be in line with
the presidents idea Of compromise. Upless
