ROESEL HANGED.
A Boy Executed for the Murder of an Old
hlan-The story of the crime.

NEW YORK, March 10.-Louis f. Roesel
was executed to-day by hanging i'll the
Union county Jail at Elizabeth, n. j., for
the murder of James c. Pitts, of Summit
James c. Pitts was murdered in his
home on the night of September 9Th, 1897
Roesel who was only 2 years old, is said
to have planned the murder and to have
been the one to actually strike the fatal
blow. Ills partner in the crime was Geo.
Mashanda The object was robbery.
Roesel worked for Pitts, who was re-
puted to be wealthy. He left the farm
and went to New York some months be-
fore the crime. There he met Mashanda
and the crime was planned in a Bowery
lodging house. Pitts lived alone except
for Mary Davis. a colored woman, who
kept house for him. The plan was to
beat out the brains of both and ransack
the house at leisure. The plan failed
through misdirected blow, but Pitts was
killed.
AS to the circumstances of the murder,
Mashanda has told one story, Roesel told
another and Mary Davis told a part of
one Mashanda said Roesel struck Pitts
on the head with a mandril. Roesel
claimed that it was Manshanda who
STRUCK inc DlOW. MIS-. DdNlS SeiAu
SHE WAS ASLEEP
on lounge in the farm house kitchen.
When she fell asleep Pitts was sitting by
the fire reading a paper. She was awak-
ened and saw two men in the room. One
of them aimed a blow at her head. 1t
fell and gashed open her scalp. She was
not rendered unconscious and ran scream
ing from the house and fell unconscious
at the door step of a neighbor, who hur-
ried to the Pitts house to investigate.
There was evidence on the kitchen wall
of the farm house that told why the
woman was not killed. AS the mandril
descended its point struck the wall and
dug out a chunk of plaster. This broke
the force of the blow sufficiently to save
the Woman's life. After Mrs. Davis es-
capped the two men fed. They were ar
rested few weeks later. Each confessed
but the State accepted Manshanda's as
States evidence and convicted Roesel
Manshanda was sent to State prison for
twenty years.

Washington, March 10.--Availing
himself of the privilege accorded by the
House of Representatives previous
10 adjournment, Chairman Cam
non. of the committee on APP
preparations, has prepared for
the Congressional Record a more
extended statement of the appropria-
tons made by the Fifty-fifth Congress
than he made the day after adjourn
ment. He places the total appropria-
tons for the entire Congress at 81, $685.
S900l6, and the appropriations author
lied for future CongreSses under tha
continuing contract system for battle
ships, river and harbor improvements
and public buildings at $70,000,000.
The total appropriations made at thu
last session, Mr.. Cannon places at $685.
65S,400, showing an apparent reduction
of S2l9, 573, PA below the appropriations
of the preceding session. Mr.. Cannon
attributes this reduction to the extra
ordinary war expenses of the preceding
session. OF the total appropriations
for the Congress he says that the sum
OF $482, 5620S3 is directly chargeable to
the war with Spain He thus shows
that the ordinary expenditures for the
two years covered by the Congress were
S1,044 ,5S0,273, and this sum exceeds tho
total appropriation of the 54th Congress
by s39, 746.6 5S. This excess is account
ed for as follows:
For payment of pensions s3.s75, 200:
for the postal service, to meet increas-
ed demands of commerce, Si6,6i9,o Si:
for river and harbor improvements S3,-
40f,l2S; for construction of new ships
s60S0S3S; for beginning the work of
the twelfth census S1.000.000; for tho
Paris exposition $1,000 for new
public buildings s5,000.000; for bay
ment of judgment against the govArn-
ment under the Bowman act and for khe
French spoliatiopa- s2 llDnleagI
s40,2S7,516.
Mr.. Cannon consTatulates Congress
and the country upon this showing,
and also upon the fact that, notwith-
standing the war, close attention was
given to the ordinary expenditures of
the Government, which Is, he thinks.
usual. He cites the defeat OF the pro-
vision for the construction OF the Nj
caragua canal, which the Senate at
tempted to get through in connection
with the sundry civil appropriation
bill, as an instance of the success of
this watchfulness on tho part OF tho
House.
"If," he says. on this point, "the Sem
ate bill or any measure proposed had
been enacted, the United States would
have paid sj,O00,000 for worthless con.
cession and would have been committed
by law to tho construction of a canal
along the Nicaragua route, and under
such conditions it would have been
compelled before we threw a spadZl
of earth, or in any way began "
construction, to have acquired by
treaty from Nicaragua and Costa Rica
the territory wherein TO construct the
canal and the right to construct It,"
