has resulted in the death Of Mr.. Kes-
Ter and his housekeeper, Ann DOMAIN,
end probably fatal injuries to his
hired man. Albert Gross, Flames were

ously wounded. was discovered on the
porch. while Cross, with broken Jaw,
crushed cellar bone and other injuries
was found nearby. Yesterday after
noon the charred remains of the wo-
man were found in the ruins. Kesler
died yesterday afternoon. Gross says
one OF the perpetrators of the outrage
lives in the neighborhood. Kesler had
miserly traits.
The object of the crime evidently
was robbery. Kesler was known to
keep a large sum of money about the
house, but few weeks ago was per-
suaded to put most of his money In
bank here. The robbers secured about
5000, 1t Is thought. After beating the
two with blunt instrument to death,
as they supposed, they set the building
afire to cover up their crime, but the
men had life enough left to crawl out
into the yard.
The officers claim to have cIew,
which they are working on.

The Crisis In Sanro Domingo

Kingston, Jamaica, Sept. 2S.-Mail
advices from San Domingo represent
the situation as daily growing more
grave from both the domestic and
foreign standpoints. This is due to the
universal disappointment over the GOV
ernment's handling Of the financial
crisis, which threatens to make mat
tiers worse, while the natives are be-
coming wildly excited. 1t is now OBJ
vious that the Dominicans themselves
are absolutely unable to handle the
situation satisfactorily.
