TRAGEDY AT WICHITA.
Miss SIavin's Death Probably Muir
der Instead of Suicide.


WICHITA. Kan, June 25.-When the
2 o'clock last Thursday morning in the
Office of the National Bank of Commerce,
death having resulted from a bullet
wound in the head, 1t was supposed that
she had committed suicide. Later de-
Velopments seem to indicate that the
young woman was murdered Coroner
Mclaughlin now says her death was not
suicidal, and the police are working upon
the theory that murder has been done.
Miss Slavin. who was the banks ste
nographer, was permitted to take in
outside work, and was frequently enl-
ployed by commercial travellers and
other strangers, work of this kind often
keeping her in the Office at the bank
until 10 o'clock at night.
Mr.. Jobes, president of the bank, now
states that on Wednesday afternoon a
strange man came to, the bank and
asked to have some work done. Miss
Slavin told him to bring it around after
6 o'clock. 5~ ~ i
A barber who passed the bank at s
o'clock saw Miss Slavin standing before
the window, apparently waiting for some
one. Another citizen heard a pistol shot
just after o'clock When Miss Slavin' s
father, the president of the bank and
another citizen went to the bank In
search of her at 2 o'clock in the morn
ing they found the bank door unlocked,
papers were scattered around the floor;
the contents of several drawers were dis
arranged and Miss Slaivn's keys were
missing. The revolver found by the
I young woman's side was not her own
Her own weapon was found in a drawer.
The theory of the police is that the
murderer. expected to secure valuables
or money.

board of trade and transportation. New
York, writes concerning the appointment
of three members of the board which the
president has been authorized TO make:
IT beg to say, however, that this board
has never taken any action upon the sub
ject of trusts and combinations. and the
fact that we send three delegates cam
not. nor can the views that may be ex-
pressed by our board delegaSes, commit
this board in any way"
Ex-Goy. Hoard, of Wisconsin. presi-
dent of the farmers national congress-
writes as follows: IT shall be very glad
to attend such conference, and while I
hFve quite decided convictions l shall
attend for the purpose of securing
breadth of view and Information con-
corning the subject, rather than with the
hope of contributing anything worthy or
essential"
Following is the letter OF f. r. Hicks,
attorney general of Wisconsin: IT shall
be pleased to attend If my official duties
will permit. l am in sympathy With the
purpose announced. The abnormal de-
velopment of these Industries calls for
the most careful and the wisest scrutiny
and consideration. The policy of the
people of this country with reference TO
them is very Important matter. and

today, M. Loubet, the president signed
orders making the following changes: NJ
Bertrand, procuraJor general to the ap-
peal court, and NJ. Feuilloly, public prose-
cutor, are both removed. NJ. Bulot, ad-

BREST, France. June 25.-The French
frst-class cruiser Tage put to sea this
evening, the official explanation being
that she had gone to experiment with
carrier pigeons. She is a much larger
cruiser than the Sfax, which is bringing
Capt. Dreyfus, and the departure of such
a big cruiser is unprecedented Usually
a torpedo boat is sent, and the opinion
therefore gains ground that the Tage
has gone to meet the Sfax and take Capt.
Dreyfus on board. The pigeons can be
used to announce the transfer, and the
Tage might proceed to another port to
land the prisoner.
AS against this theory and as an indi-
cation that the landing of Dreyfus will
be effected here there is the fact that
large numbers of gendarmes from the
country around Brest are arriving, or are
expected to arrive tonight.
The treasurer of the famous league OF
the French fatherland reached Brest this
evening from Paris. and as his organiza-
ton has been at the bottom of the antIe
Dreyfus movement 1t is thought he has
probably come to organize a deInonstra-
ton.
The city IS full of Partisan journalists
and representatives of the foreign press
They are restless and inclined to find
fault with everything. They especially
chafe under the restraint imposed upon
their actions by the authorities, who have
ordered severe regulations, imposing 81
lence all along the ranks OF the govern
ment and military authorities.
Every one who could give information
is as silent as the grave. The authorities
anticipate no trouble or uprising on the
he ~
only one opinion here and that is anti
Dreyfus. The population, however. is
obedient and willing to leave the matter
in the hands of the men in charge
POLICE CAUTIOUS.
The police fear an attempt may be made
on the life of the prisoner by some one
from Paris, and extraordinary precau-
tfons are being taken for his safety. It
seems diffcult to believe that after all
the revelations made any one would be
willing to deprive the unfortunate man
az least of a chance to prove his inno-
cence.
= Admiral Barera has full charge of all
arrangements. The central and special po-
lice commissioners received special orders
this morning. M. Cochefort. of the surety
general, arrived tonight from Paris
A band of men and boys, carrying flags
and .tambourines, marched through the
town singing the "Marseillaise" and
cheering for, justice. The demonstrations
were good-humored and there were no
signs of the fierce undertone remarkable
in Paris manifestations.
There is rumor at the last moment the
government may change its mind and
order Dreyfus to debark either at
L'Orient or st. Malo.
Nine. Dreyfus is not coming to Brest.
nor any of the family She will wait for
her husband at Rennes.
There is an impression here it will be
difficult to clear Capt. Dreyfus without
compromising the general staff.
The city late tonight is in a state of
absolute calm. The people gave a warm
welcome to Gen. Ccrre, who arrived by
automobile. : e'fsi szs%
The French colonel says the English
might invade France tonight without dam
ger of accomplishing anything, as the
coast is so well surveyed by journalists
on the lookout for the Sfax.

POLITICAL PARTIES PASSING.
Such Is the Opinion OF Mayor Jones
Of Toledo

COLUMBUS, o.. June 25--1n letter
to Columbus friend Mayor Jones. Of To-
-ledo, announces himself ready to stand as
the candidate of an independent move
ment for governor. He says: II have no
inclination whatever to rush into move
ment of this kind. On the other hand I
do not propose to shirk If 1t shall appear
that the time has arrived to make a cam
paign of education over a great state that
would be of more value than ten years
of mere preaching and teaching.
II have nothing to concede and I am
more than ever convinced that the day
of political parties is passing. Parties
and party machines will find themselves
out of a job, so to speak They are ex-
pensive and frightful burdens on the body
polite. They are a positive menace to
liberty and stand directly athwarA the
path of progress"
The letter is published by permission of
Mayor Jones.

other hand, the head sails were a dis
appointment. The staysail seemed TO be
cut very straight along the foot, while
the head of the sail. which was too full,
tapped badly In the wind. Later the luff
on this sail was hauled down hard and
the sail set much better, but the jib kept
spilling out wind into 1t SO that 1t shook
nearly all through. The iib was fairly
steady, but had a big bag along the luff,
which shows that it could stand but little
stretching.
Standing out of the harbor the Colum-
bia was headed across the bay to the
shore of Rhode Island, and just before
10 o'clock she went about, and with a
constantly freshening breeze from the
I south-southwest stood over toward Pru-
dence island on the west side of the bay.
The Columbia made five bitches on the
way down Narragansett bay, a long leg
to the north of Prudence island, an
other to the south of Sandy Point light,
about halfway down the island, a zhiPi
to the south of halfway rock, a fourth
to Gould island, and fifth to the Con-
nachut island shore, just north OF James
town.
FRIENDLY BRUSH.
AS the Columbia came out after the
latter tack she met the Defender and
Navahoe coming out of Newport har-
Dor, accompanied by a feet of steam,
yachts and sailing craft. The Navahoe
hauled up to the windward, but the De-
fender came down with the wind, passing
under the stern OF the Columbia In
stead Of keeping on the Columbia was
headed after the Defender. and the two
boats sailed three miles up the bay be-
fore the wind.
Just before the Defender came out the
working top sail was set on the Colum-
bia, but it was taken in Immediately
and the boats had their first trial to-
gether under the same sails. The Co
lumbia was the first to swing around
on to the wind after the run to leeward
and the Defender followed Immediately.
Both boats made a number of short
reaches, but as they were half a mile
apart little could be judged of their
to the windward and seemed to gain
on the Defender, pointing high and out
footing her. Just as the two boats had
tackled to port under the jamestown
shore the Columbia was eased off, and
running a. wn toward the Defender took
a position on the Defenders weather
quarter. Capt. Barr, on the Columbia
brought the new boat in the worst posi-
BILE position for a race, and with the
two yachts scarcely fifty yards apart
the first. real brush between the new and
old defender was on. Capt. Barr gave
the Columbia a straight course, and
Capt. Rhoads, on the Defender, did not
try to pinch out ahead 1t was fair
test of the two boats. The Defender
did her best to outstrip her rival, and
she only lacked the necessary speed to
do it. That she failed in the attempt
showed the new boat to be wonder,
and the Shamrock will have to sail at a
marvellous speed to win the Americas
cup.
