DEATH OF SENIOR ROMERO
MEXICO'S GIFTED AMBASSADOR TO
THE UNITED STATES.
An Eminent Statesman and Writer
matte Corps i'm Washington.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 30.-Senor Don Ma
tias Romero, the Mexican ambassador to
the United States. died at the embassy here
at 4:10 o'clock this morning. On Wednes-
day last an operation for appendicitis was
performed on the ambassador and although
the operation was entirely successful, the
resulting shock proved greater than he
could bear Up to 1:30 o'clock this morning.
however, it was thought he was in a fair
way to recover, but at that time a high
fever set in and he sank rapidly until his
death. About his bedside were his sister,
Mrs. Garcia, and his aunt, the secretaries
and other attaches of the embassy, his ply
sicians, and ex-Secretary and Mrs John w.
Foster. The death of Mrs Romero, which
occurred some months ago, was a great
shock to the ambassador, and on his return
from Mexico, whittier he had taken her re-
mains for interment, his friends remarked
that he was greatly broken and showed I'M
mistakable signs of failing health. While in
Mexico at that time Mr.. Romero was strick-
en- with fever, and although he was soon
able to return to the United States, he
never fully regained his health. At the spe-
cial request of the President and other high
officials of the Mexican government they
were kept constantly advised of Senior Ro-
mero's condition, and Immediately upon his
death this morning kilograms announcing
the fact were sent.
The funeral will take place at st. Mat
theWs Catholic Church Sunday afternoon at
o'clock, when requiem low mass will be
celebrated. The body will be placed tempo
rarily in vault in Mount OlWet Cemetery
TO await the ability of Mrs. Garcia to return
to Mexico. She is now Ill and probably will
not be able to make the journey for some
weeks. The following have been selected
honorary pallbearers: The British anlbassa-
dor, the German ambassador, the secretary
of state, the secretary of the treasury, the
minister of Venezuela, the minister of Qua
temala, Senator John T. Morgans Repre-
sentative r. r. Hit, ex-Secretary John w.
Foster and Mr.. John w. Thompson.
AT the Cabinet meeting to-day it was
agreed that the President and all the mem
bers of his Cabinet should attend the funeral
services Sunday afternoon, and that United
States Minister Powell Clayton, at the City
of Mexico, should be instructed by telegraph
to convey to the President of Mexico a
message of sympathy and coincidence from
the President ana people of the United States
over the death of Senior Romero.
Many kilograms of coincidence have been
received a the embassy, most of them COM
ing from Mexico.

connection with the report that bromo-selt-
ger was liable to decompose and form a
deadly poison caused considerable Specula-
ton. Investigation, however, seems TO nave
exploded the expected sensation. There is no
such jewelry firm John Armenter q Co.
in the city. The James Armsger Company
say they do not remember selling such an
article of silverware, and assert that they
have not handled Lebueckner & Co.'S goods
for several years. If the article was sold
at their store there no record of 1t.
Isaac +. Emerson, the head of the Emer-
son Drug Company which compounds
bIomo-seltzer, said he had no recollection OF
having an invoice of the headache cure re-
turned from S. j. Russell, the Jersey City
druggist, as stated in a dispatch from New
York tonight. During the ten years that
we have been manufacturing bromo-seltzer,
lac said mot single grain OF potassium
cyanide or other poisonous material has
come within the doors of our factory. We
facture of the drug, and we do not make
any other medicine except small salve for
colds, which contains a mixture of vaseline
and other harmless material. Our output for
the. past five years has been ten million bot
ties a year, so you see that II any poison
had got into a bottle in factory it
would have resulted in the poisoning of
thousands instead of one The only explana-
ton that ] can offer is that some one who
wished to injure Cornish sent him the poi
son. Our bottles all labeled. 'Bromo-
seltzer-The Emerson Drug Company, Balti-
more "
He denied that it was possible for bronco
settler to decompose and form a poison of
any sort. Several eminent physicians who
are acquainted with the ingredients Of the
drug agree with him in this statement.

might VERSUS RIGHT"
How COlOmbians View the Proposed
Italian Demonstration.

COLON. Colombia, Dec. 30.--The local
press, referring to-day to the report that
the Italian second-class cruiser Fieramosca,
under command of Ammlraglio de Brochetti,
has been ordered to Colombian waters to
demand satisfaction for alleged recent in
suits offered to Italian naval officers, say
that Colombia should act with dignity
prudence and forbearance. so as to attract
the attention of the nations of the world to
the repeated display of might VS.. right
The insults of which the Italian gov
eminent is said to complain grew indirectly
out of the Cerruti affair. Last summer
when the Italian squadron went to Colom-
bian waters to enforce President Cleveland's
award, it made a diversion into Venezuelan
waters and the Venezuelan government
conferred certain honors and decorations
upon the officers of the squadron. Several
Colombian deputies upon whom Venezuela
had bestowed the same decorations returned
them to Venezuela with the statement that
they considered 1T disgrace to wear decora-
tons which had been bestowed upon Ital-
ians. The Italian government called upon
the Colombian government to disaVow the
act of the deputies, but the Colombian eX-
ecutiVe declined 1t was announced a few
nights ago from Rome that the Fieramosca
would be sent to demand an explanation.

ALLEGED CONSPIRACY.
Suit Growing Out of Competition Be-
tween Two Business Concerns.

PITTSBURG. Dec. SO.-Warrants were is
sued and arrests made to-day in what prom
ises to be a big conspiracy suit The arrests
of Meyer N. Jacobs, local agent of the Ma
tional Cash Register Company, of Dayton,
o.; Thomas Savage, a local salesman, and
John F. Morris, Pittsburg private detec-
tive, are the elimination in this city of a
bitter fight between two large competing
concerns. Other defendants in this suit are
John II. Patterson, president of the Ma
tional Cash Register Company, residing at
Dayton; Joseph Crane, manager of sales
agencies, also Of Dayton; d. E. Perkins,
Columbus, agent of the National Cash Regis
ter Company, and N. +. Thomas, a Cincin-
natl salesman OF the National Cash Register
Company. The conspiracy suit was entered
before Alderman McMasterS by w. H. Gill.
local agent of the Hallwood Cash Register
Company, of Columbus, o.. as a representa-
tive of his company. The National COM
pany it is alleged, among other things, has
adopted all kinds of tactics to keep the
Hallwood company from doing business, ana
besides publishing warnings in newspapers
has attempted TO knock out HallWood regis
ters by false and fraudulent methods.

MADRID, Dec 30.-El Liberal publishes
an interview with minister whose name is
not known, which represents him as de-
claring that the advent of the Conserva-
tives to power is only delayed by Senior
Sagasta's illness. "All the minister's" said
the person in question, had already offered
their designations, but the premier's sud-
den illness STAYED off the crisis. But above
the problems of interior politics there is
one question of extraordinary gravity af-
fecting the very existence of the fatherland.
This question preoccupies our statesmen so
deeply that it would suffice to unite them
TO prevent fresh catastrophes. 1t is i'm
possible TO speak clearly on this point L
can only say the preoccupation includes
fears of apprehended events which must
give preteXt for thing England is pur-
suing with effrontery.
The interview has excited much comment
and much anxiety is felt as to what the
ministerial organs will have to say.

NEW YORK, Dec. 31.-The World says:
Capt. George McCIuskey, chief of the de-
tective bureau. firmly believes that he has
solved the mystery surrounding the attempt
to kill Harry Cornish, physical instructor
of the Knickerbocker Athletic Club, by
sending him poison through the mails. At 9
o'clock last night Captain McCluskey
stated that he would have the culprit in GUS
tody within twelve hours. The name of the
suspected murderer is withheld from the pub
lic lest it's announcement should defeat the
ends of justice. The man under surveillance
was formerly a member of the Knicker-
booker Athletic Club. He was at one time a
man of high social and financial standing
in this city. In later years, through evil
rapid
