ADMIRAL DEWEl- DECLINES
Presidential Nomination, and Says
Kind Words About Mckinley.

EA4u0 "VEuo A9tAS S4S4SA0AGy'
NEW YORK, Nov. 2s.-Admiral
Dewey has repeated his former asser-
ton that he IS not a candidate for the
presidential nomination, snys Wash
ington correspondent of the Herald
"Presldent Mckinley is a good friend
Of mine and 1 hope to see him secure a
second term" the admiral said, II
hope my friends will not continue to
talk Of my being candidate. The
American people have too much sense
to do anything of that kind, 1t seems
10 me that the so-cOlled hattle-scarred
heroes, as rule, have made poor Pres
idents.
President Mckinley is good friend
OF mine, and shall never forget those
noble. cheering messages that he sent
me at Manila. have preserved them
all and shall keep them as long as l
live"
The admiral expresses much sntistac
tlon with the news from the Philip
pines. He considers the lnsurrection
practically at an end.

SAN RAFAEL, June 9.-The search

continued to-day by Sheriff Taylor.
Detective Ed Gibson and a score Of
woodChoppers. who are anxious to earn
the $50 reward offered by District At
torney McIsaacs. Meanwhile Dier, who
has been under arrest since Monday

OF nervous collapse, and if he had
hand in the alleged murder of French
Pete the authorities feel confident that
he Will confess before many more days
shall have passed.
Sheriff Taylor and Detective Gibson
left here for Carson Canyon early this
morning and remained there until late
this afternoon. They examined the
missing mans cabin thoroughly in the
hope Of unearthing more evidence
against DER No additional clews were
brought TO light and after searching
in vain the neighboTing gullies for sev-
eral hours they returned here and had
another lengthy interview with DER
Detective Gibson left for San Fran

tion with Chief Lees.
Sheriff Taylor is quite elated over the
strong chain of ctrCumStantial evidence
which has been forged about the pris-

the event of Lorraines body being
found he believes that he has evidence
enough to send DER to the gallows
The Sheriff has made arrangements to
send at least sixty men into Carson
Canyon Sunday to search for the miss
ing WoodChopper's body.
i am absolutely certain that Lor-
raine has been murdered" -" said Sheriff
Taylor tonight Everything indicates
murder and all We want TO do now is
TO find his body. I am satisfied that it
IS not far from his cabin. for his mur-
derer would find it a difficult job to
carry the body far in that rough coun-
try"

HANDSOME CHAPEL FOR
STANFORD UNIVERSITY
FACADE TO BE IN LINE WITH
THE QUADRANGLE.
Plans Already Prepared and Work
Will Begin at Once-A Beauti-
full Ornament to the
Grounds.

Plans for magnificent chapel that will
grace the grounds of the Stanford Uni
versity have been prepared by Clinton
Day, and in the near future work on the
foundation will be begun. The chapel will
intersect the outer walls of the eastern
side of the quadrangle, the steps and
first elevation occupying the space now
used by the grand central archway which
divides the quadrangle in two equal parts.
The style of the chapel, which is to be
a structure of broad measurements, is a
mixture of Renaissance and a modifica-
ton of the Romanesque. The ground floor
Will have large open and circular nave
in the center, with an apse on either side
running beneath a semicircular gallery.
On either side of the apse both in the
front and rear, will be ante-rooms.
A tower will spring from the right cen
tral portion of the building to the right
of the lofty dome. The material to be
used will be red sandstone, Identical in
nature with that OF the quadrangle. The
estimated cost of the new chapel is $50 900.
In beauty of conception it will equal any
of the historic chapels of America. It's
location in the midst Of the recitation
rooms and of easy access from all parts
of the grounds makes 1T a great convent
