Washington, Jan. 19.-The senate lis
tened further to-day to discussion of the
policy of expansion. Mr.. Turner, pop,
of Washington, delivered a carefully
prepared speech on the Vest resolution.

and Senator Foraker upon their recent
utterances. At the conclusion of Mr..
Turner's argument Mr.. Foraker took
some sharp exceptions to statements
ade in the speech, and particularly to

ferring to the interest and comment
which had been aroused in Great Brit

not speaking for the administration, and

TO BIZ TRIED FOR MURDER.
TRUE BILL RETURNED AGAINST
MRS. ANNIE z. GEORGE,
She Killed George ID. saxton, Brother
of Mrs. McKinley-Shota at Him Five
Tfmes-NO One Saw the Shooting but
the Indictment is Made on Circum- y
stantia1 Evidence.

Canton, O., Jan. 19.-The grand Jury
to-day returned a true bill against Mrs.
Annie 3. George for numbering George
d. Saxton, brother of Mrs. William Me-
Kiney, last October. The Indictment ID
for the first degree and the penalty On
conviction is death by electrocution.
At the coroner's inquest it developed
that no one saw the shooting, but cir
cumstantial evidence indicated that on
the night Of October Saxton was shot
as he was about to enter the residences
of Mrs. Eva A. Althouse, a widow.
Five shots were fired, three taking ef-
feet. Saxton died before a physician
could reach him. According to report
Saxton had sought to end his relations
with Mrs. George. There were circum-
stances to justify the arrest OF Mrs.
George on suspicion. Afterwards evil
dence was secured before the coroner
showing that Saxton had not only ended
his relations with Mrs. George, but had
also attempted to eject her from the
rooms she occupied in the Saxton block.
Witnesses testified to threats that Mrs.
George had made against Saxton. Wit
nesses also testified to Mrs. Georges
securing a revolver and being seen
leaving street car near the Althouse
residence shortly before the shooting
was heard. AS Mrs. Althouse was not
at home that night, it was even con-
Jectured that Mrs George had sent the
victim decoy letter asking him to call
that evening at a certain hour SO that
the, shooting might be done at the
threshold of supposed rival.

THE S44MOAN TROUBLE.


| Washington, Jan. 19-It was stated
dispatches had been received from
! United States Consul Osborn at Apia,
but as to their nature the officials had
nothing to say beyond that they went
| to confirm the news dispatches printed
this morning. Admiral Kautz, the COM
mander of the Pacific station, is now on
board his flagship, the Philadelphia,
and it is stated at the navy department
| that he would accompany that ship to
| Samoa.
| Orders have been sent from the navy
| department to have the cruiser Newark
start with dispatches from New York
navy yard for the Pacific station via
the Straits of Magellan. The Newark
is powerful protected cruiser of about
the same type and power as the Phila-
delphia, whose place she will take on
the Pacific station, the Philadelphia go
ing to Samoa.
San Diego, Cal, Jan. 19--Admiral
Kautz landed to-day at Coronado from
the Philadelphia and was shown the
dispatch stating that his vessel would
be ordered to Samoa. He said no such
orders had yet reached him and that it
would be doubtful if the vessel would
be sent on SO long a voyage in view of
her present condition. which he would
make known to the department He
said that her bottom was foul and need
ed cleaning and repairing badly, as
the speed of the ship was reduced at
least two knots thereby. The vessel
would have to go first to the dry dock
at San Francisco.
"Under no consideration" said Ad-
miral Kautz, "can get away from here
under a weeks time, but if we must go
l will leave on orders from San Fran
cisco in day or two. If another ship
is secured we will probably remain here
a week before going north" Speaking
of the trip up Admiral Kautz said the
most important item of news he had
learned was the universal desire of the
people of Nicaragua and Costa Rica
that the United States take hold of and
construct quickly the Nicaragua canSi
under government control.
Berlin, Jan. l9.-IHe NEWS lIpul Sd-
moa has been received with foreboding.
The Lolxal Anzeiger says: "All this
doubtless signifies an appreciable quar-
rel and with the unceremoniousness
which the Americans have affected late
ly toward us, it may easily take serl-
GUS turn The Samoan condomiun has
always involved lurking danger
The Vossche Zeltung says: The sit
uation will become even graver when
the American warship arrives at Apia.
1t is said that the Washington govern
ment has instructed the United States
consul general there not to trust the
German consul. Evidently the United
States, who are least interested in Sa-
moa among the three powers, do not
mean to respect Germanys paramount
interests. Germany will have to show
firmness all the more 80 as our position
is made the worse by the evident desire
of England to help the United States,
so as to retain the latter's friendship"
