SAN FRANCISCO, July 3o.-The drafts
proposed on the new Samoan treaty, as
amended by the Samoan commissioners and
published by the Call, Is a document of
5000 words The important features of this
treaty are enumerated and discussed in the
commissions report, the treaty containing
the details Of the modified form of govern
ment for Samoa as outlined in the report.
The treaty begins with a declaration Of
the neutrality of the islands of Samoa and
an assurance to the respective citizens and
subjects Of the signatory powers of equality
of rights. 1t provides for the immediate
restoration Of peace and good order, and
to this end permanently abolishes the Of
flee Of King and limits the authority CT
chiefs, but creates a system of native gov
ernment.
Provision is made for the appointment Of
an administrator Of Samoa, to be appointed
by the three signatory powers, or, failing
their agreement, by the King of Norway
and Sweden. The administrators salary
will be 5000 per annum, and he is to exc
cute all laws in force in the Samoan islands.
He shall possess the pardoning power and
make municipal appointments, with the con-
sent Of the legislative council, the legisla-
tive power being vested in the administrators
and the legislative council of three men,
bers. one being appointed by each Of the
three powers. There is also to be a ma
tive assembly, composed of tho Governors
of the different districts of the island.
The chief justice of the Supreme Court is
to be appointed as at present, receiving a
salary Of 5000. The jurisdiction of the
court is increased by the modified treaty,
while the present system Of consular juris-
diction is to be abolished. The treaty con-
tains municipal and customs regulations. all
of which are more strict than at present.
The general provisions Of the act are to re-
main in force for three years. although in
the meantime special amendments may be
adopted by the consent Of the three powers,
with the adherence Of Samoa.

WASHINGTON, July 3o-Surgeon General
Sternberg OF the army, declared to an As
ISOLATED Press reporter at a late hour to-
night that he has no official knowledge OF
the reported outbreak Of yellow fever at
Hampton. He expressed himself as highly
incredulous Of the truth OF the story. say
ing he had had no intimation even OF the
question OF the fever at Hampton. Still, he
said, he might not get the earliest news
in such case. as reports probably would
be first sent 10 the managers OF the board
of soldiers homes.
1t appears that DR.. Wyman's information
OF the reported existence Of yellow fever
came in a telegram from the surgeon IN
charge of the Soldiers Home at Hampton.
who expressed fear that the disease was
prevalent there. DR.. Wyman Immediately
availed himself of the presence at Norfolk
OF Surgeon Wasdin and directed that he
proceed at cnce TO Hampton and make
careful examination OF the suspects This
afternoon the surgeon general received a
dispatch from DR.. wasdin expressing his
conviction that the hospital authorities had
been correct in their fears and that the dis
ease was genuine yellow fever. Surgeon

A KENTUCKY TRAGEDY
WELL-KNOWN POLITCIAN4s KILLED
BY HIS sON-IN-LAw.
Trouble Grew Out of the Separation
of the Murderer from
His Wife.

MORNING VIEW. KY, July S0-Hon.
Benjamin Finnell was shot and killed by his
son-in-law, Austin Stephens, here to-day.
Stephens and his wife separated about eight
months ago. She entered suit and got di-
vorce Stephens blamed Finnell as the au-
thor of his troubles. year ago Finnell
shot Stephens through the arm in one of
their numerous quarrels. To-day Stephens
appeared In the neighborhood and called for
Ffnnell A son of the latter gave him Sc
we're beating. Then Stephens went TO an
adjoining field, where Finnell was feeding
hogs. He pulled revolver and shot Finnell
twice through the shoulder and once
through the heart. In spite Of his wounds
Finnell grappled the murderer and would
have killed him had he not been pulled off.
He died few seconds afterwards. Stephens
escaped but bloodhounds are on his trail.
Finnell was an ex-deputy sheriff of Kenton
county and once was the opponent of Sen
ator Goebel for a seat in the Legislature.
Should Stephens be captured there is a pos
sibility of lynching, as feeling runs high.

800 SICK SOLDIERS.
Hospital Ship Relief Will Soon Arrive
with Her Patients.

HONOLULU, July %, via San Francisco.
July 30.-The United States hospital ship
Relief arrived yesterday, eleven days from
Yokohama. After coaling she will proceed
directly to San Francisco. Probably four
days will be occupied in coaling and nine
days for the trip to San Francisco, so that
the Relief will hardly arrive at that port
earlier than Aug. 4. The Relief has on board
three hundred sick soldiers from Manila, in
cluding the following commissioned officers,
who are invalided home: Captain Joseph
Zerlinger, First Nebraska; Captain Will
liam j. Watson, Twentieth Kansas; Capt.
Adna G. Clarke, Twentieth Kansas; First
Lieutenant John c. Macarthur, Third In
fantry; Second Lieutenant Collin H. Ball,
Twentieth Kansas: Second Lieutenant
Oliver c. Lapp, South Dakota.
The invalided soldiers are being looked
after by complete hospital corps. includ-
ing seven surgeons, five stewards and eight
trained female nurses.
Since leaving Manila two Of the Reliefs
passengers died. Private Chris Kaup, Com
pany c, Wyoming Regiment. died on July
Z, of marlaria, at Yokohama. At Nagasaki,
on June 2s, Frank Duval succumbed to
meningitis. Both bodies were embalmed and
are being returned to the United States on
the Relief.

DIDN'T ATTEND CHURCH.
The President Remained at Home
with Mrs. M'kinley, Who Ii Better.

HOTEL CHAMPLAIN, Clinton county.
New York. July 3o.-President Mckinley
did not attend church to-day, as he had
intended to do. but instead remained at the
hotel with Mrs. Mckinley. This morning
he went for a long walk with his old friend,
Commander Buckingham, Of the navy, and
after luncheon he went out for a short
walk with DR.. Rixey. Mrs. Mckinley con-
tinues to improve steadily. Tonight the
weather has turned cold, the steam has been
turned on in every room of the hotel and
overcoats and wraps are in demand. If the
sky clears there will probably be a light
frost.
The President is much interested in the
progress Of affairs in the republic of Santo
Domingo and he reads the newspapers with
eagerness. The New York and Washington
morning papers do not reach here until 7:30
p. m, so the evening Is always spent by
the President in reading them. The stu
dents at the Catholic Summer School OF
America are very anxious to have the
President visit the grounds, which are only
about a mile from the hotel, and the Presi-
dent has promised to do so as soon as Mrs.
McKinley's health will permit.

BLAME LAID ON SKATER.
Dispute Over Lack Of Attention to the
Sick and Wounded.

SAN FRANCISCO, Cal, July 3o.-Major
General w. r. Shafter, in an attempt to
shift blamc for his negligence in the recep-
ton of the sick and wounded soldiers who
arrived on the Morgan City, wrote a letter
to Collector of the Port Jackson in which
he accused federal customs officials Of be-
ing responsible for the heartlessness dis
played in landing and caring for the men.
Surveyor of the Port Spear and Deputy
Surveyor st. John refused to accept the
blame and hold Shafter entirely RESPONSE
bic, accusing him Of carlessness, negligence
and ignorance of matters with which he
and army officers should be well acquainted.
In his letter the major general stated that
he was informed that the custom officials
were to blame for the delay in landing the
sick and wounded who arrived here on the
transport Morgan City. Collector jackson
sent the letter to Deputy Surveyor Chaun-
cey St. John, and the latter replied that
Major General Shafter states falsehoods.
Deputy st. John said to-day:
This Office has no desire to antagonize
General Shafter. However. we do not fear
him because he happens to command the
coast division Of the army. When he at
tempts to shift the blame of his own negli-
gence on the shoulders of innocent parties
it is time to enter an objection. The Gus
toms officials were not in the least respon-
sible for the delay. Army oficials showed
carelcssness and negligence in attending to
sick and wounded soldiers. They were on
the wharf for hours without food or nurses

SAN FRANCISCO, July 30.-The untimely
arrival of the United States transport Han
cock, having on board the Nebraska Regi-
ment and two batteries Of the Utah Artill-
cry, completely destroyed all the arrange
ments which had been made for royal re-
ception and an enthusiastic welcome to the
fighting volunteers returning crowned with
their laurels. The Hancock dropped anchor
in the stream shortly before midnight last
night. The committee here from Nebraska
and Utah had given up all idea Of the ves-
sci arriving earlier than this morning and
had prepared to be up at dawn to-day to
greet the expected ship. Tugs and launches
had been chartered, and Governor Poynter.

detail to be the first man aboard the Han
cock and welcome the heroes from his State

fession from the Wife Murderer.

CHICAGO. July 3O-Thousands of persons
attended to-day the funeral Of Adolph L.

group about the bier at the Northwest
Turner Hall were Luetgert's three children,

Lawrence Harmon. former counsel for
Luetgert, delivered an address, at the close
of which he said: He is dead, but his wife
lives. I call upon Louisa Luetgert, the
missing woman for whom he suffered with
out ever uttering an unkind word regarding
her. to come forth and remove the unmer-
tied stain from the name of the father and
her innocent children"
Luetgert's sudden death in the peniten-
tiary at Joliet on Thursday last has brought
to light the fact that States Attorney c. S.
Dineen has had locked up in the vaults at
the Criminal Court building almost from the
beginning of the accused's trial for wife
murder. two years ago, an implication that
is considered morally his confession of guilt.
II was made by Luetgert to fellow-pris-
oner in the jail. It was sworn to by the
latter at the time before the states attor-
ney. Now II is given publication for the
first time. From this document II would
appear that Luetgert asked his wife to go
with him TO the sausage factory office on
the night Of May /, 1897. She refused. This
angered him. During the quarrel that fol-
lowed he gave her violent kick in the side.
This rendered her unconscious. Luetgert
expected she would come to-"come back"

but she did not. Seeing that she had died.

NEW YORK. July so.-The Herald will
print an editorial tomorrow regarding it's
Dewey interview In part as follows: "On
Friday last DR.. Halstead Boyland, a we'll
known physician who sometimes, when
travelling. corresponds with the Herald in
a dilettante way. sent the Herald a dis
patch from Trieste, which was published in
our issue OF last Saturday, 1t gave res
ume OF a conversation which Dr.. Boy
land had with Admiral Dewey.
In this conversation the admiral spoke
with sailor-like candor and expressed opin-
ions with regard TO Germany that have
stirred up a commotion. 1t is regrettable
that a friendly conversation should have
found its way into print. The admiral can
not regret it more than the Herald does.
Still. when this has been recorded. the fact
remains that Admiral Dewey made the
statements reported by DR.. Boyiand."
