CINCINNATI, June 1S.-Possessed of
manaic cunning, Mary Heintz, of the
northwest corner of Laurel and John
streets, tried to slowly roast her hus-
band to death at an early hour Satur-
day morning. His frightful screams
brought neighbors to the scene and he
was rescued just in time. Mrs Heintz
is IS years old, and her husband, Law
renee, is 65. Mrs. Heintz is known to
have been demented for some time
past, but has been considered harm
less as her mania was ridiculous one
violence
She had been a regular church at
tendant, but became troublesome on ac-
count of her hallucinations in the con-
gregation Of which she was member.
She imagined that her husband had
circulated stories about her which had
caused her expulsion from the church,
and concentrated all the maniacal Bit
terness of her insane fury against
him.
Saturday morning after sending her
| 1o-ycar-old daughter to the grocery,
| she crawled from her bed without
aruusing her husband, who was still
asleep, an locked the beG- oom door
| Then she went to a gasoline stove in
the room and deliberately turned on
the drip pan. She carefully applied a
match and the flames leaped high in
the air, igniting the light gown which
she wore. Withore moments hesita-
ton she darted to the bed and drag
ged her husband, small man,
from the bed Before he
could make any outcry at the sight of
the flaming figure before him or offer
any resistance, she dragged him to the
stove, and with both hands held him
face downward over the flames Then,
while he shrieked in awful agony she
held him calmly over the flames while
his body was literally cooked from the
crown of his head to the soles of his
feet His skin peeled off in great Sec
tions, and his frenzied cries for help
finally brought assistance.
A neighbor named Liedman broke in
the door, and startled by the fearful
sight that met his eyes, hesitated for a
moment before he could summon his
presence of mind. Then, with a
bound, he tore the man from the
woman's arms and summoned other
assistance. In her endeavor to cremate
her husband the woman had also been
terribly burned about the hands, arms
and breast. Patrol 5 was hastily sum
to the hospital The man was fright
fully burned from the hips up and ht
: can not possibly survive.

cr, to enforce an accounting and secure a
receiver He accuses the ma aioritv of the
stockholders i'll the company of manipu

its stock and and took 1923 shares, of a
par value OF 500 each, in the United
Smelling and and Refining Company OF
New Jersey, which also owns slneltcr in
Great Falls and Il refinery in Chicago.
Lyman claims that the trustees OF the
old company have since then received
SsO0,0OO as dividends on the stock in the
new company, owned by the old one, but
that instead OF paying dividends they
guaranteed bonds of the Livingston Coal
and Coke Company for $3.50 600 and have
paid Sl4o,00O interest and placed *GO.OoO

SUBSTANCE OF SPANS REPLY.
Independence of Cuba Can Not Now
BE Granted.

Washington, April ,. - The reply OF
Spain is said, in effect, to be:
The independence OF Cuba means the
parting or cession of Spanish territory
which can not be done without the con
sent of the Spanish cortes, which will not
be in session until April "A.
The counter proposition is submitted
that the Cuban matter shall be settled up
on basis equitable among nations. The
United States is asked to give Spain time
to treat with the insurgents and ascertain
what can be done in the nature Of peace
iul settlement.
Senators who know the nature of the
reply say it is a very shrewd piece Of di-
plomacy and made for its effect upon the
world at large. 1t is said the reply is un-
satisfactory to the president and he does
not believe it will be satisfactory to con
gress.
Administration officers feel that after
Monday congress is likely to take matters
into its own hands and fear is expressed
that there will be a disagreement between
the branches Of government which would
be serious at thsi critical point.
No one at the capitol has undertaken to
speak for the president although those
who have seen him say his hopes of a
peaceful solution Of a difficulty have been
by the reply of Spain.

VIEWS OF THE LONDON TIMES.
II Spain Is Ordered to Leave Cuba
She Will Fight.

London. April 5.--The Madrid core
spondent OF the Times says: Spain's re-
ply TO the American proposals is reported
to have done little or nothing toward re
laXing the intentions of the United States.
The chances of an amicabe settlement
arc more remote than ever, and most
Spanish minds are prepared for the worst.
President Mckinley, we learn, may or
may not send one sharp ultimatum as a
dernier resort. ii he does. and the nlti
matum requires the evacuation of Cuba
by the Spanish troops, everything goes to
show it may as we'll be left unWritten. If
the worst happens it is obvious that Spain
will 90 to war with the firm conviction
that She worked from first to last in the
legitimate interests OF peace, making cv-
cry concession fairly compatible with ma
tional dignity.
