DEATH OF SENIOR ROMERO.
The Mexican Ambassador to the United
States Succumbs to an Operation
for Appendicitis.

Washington, Dec 81 -Senor Don
Matias Romero, the Mexican am bassa-
dor to the United States, died at the
embassy here at 40 o'clock yesterday
morning. Wednesday an operation for
appendicitis was performed on the am
bassador and, although the operation
was entirely successful, the resulting
shock proved greater than he could
bear
For the last 35 years Romero has
been one of the leading officials of the
various governments of Mexico. As
early as 1S59-during the administra-
tion of President Buchanan-he was
connected with the Mexican legation.
He was at that time only % years of
age. Before he was 25 he had charge
of the interests of Mexico in the
United States. He was secretary of
the Mexican treasury during the ad-
ministrations of Juarez. the first presi-
dent of Mexico, and Diaz when he
succeeded Juarez; was a member OF
the Mexican congress, an officer in the
Mexican army aad then again minis
ter, and later ambassador to the
United States.

TENNESSEE STATE NEWS
Foul Murder.

One OF the foulest murC cri in the his
tory of the State was C m nitted last
week at Pillowvillc, a toIntry town
near Mckenzie. 1t is not known what
caused the trouble, but it is generally
understood that it was tie result of a
family quarrel. The particulars as far
as learned are as follows: 4 man named
Puclzett and his son-in-law. Givens, had
been living together for many years.
They were people of limited means and
always rented on the same farm. They
seemed to be very much attached to
each other until a short time ago, when
they quarreled. On the day of the
killing hot words were passed between
them, which enraged Giveus. He pro-
cured n double-barrel shotgun and,
without warning, emptied the contents
in his father-in-law's head, completely
tearing the left side of his face off and
spattering his brains against the house.
Givens then beat his mother-ia-law and
wife numerically, inficting painful if
not serious wounds about their bodies.
He then escaped. Pickett WAS man
of good reputation and was always law
abiding.

RUSSIAN OPPOSITION.
The Cars Country Starting a Cwmoatgn
Against Oar Building the Nicaragua
Canal-A mrrica a Power in Asia.

Paris, Dec. Jl.-The Herald's Euro
pean edition prints the following:
Russia is evidently beginning campaign
| against the Nicaraguau canal The Noyoe
| Vremya publishes an article not only warmly
| advocating the Panama scheme, but flied with
| bitter dislike OF the United States. The writer
| says the predominsnce of the United States
would have been desirable for Russia q few
| years ago, but all this has changed since the
last war.
The writer goes on to say that, hav-
ing despoiled poor Spain, the United
States has become colonial party and
an Asiatic power:
Forgetting the Monroe doctrine of America
for Americans, which implies the other doc
trine that American dominion must be confined
to America, the Yankees are now entering into
open competition with US in China and Corea.
They have no Sc-upleS over an alliance with
their traditional enemy. England, and with
Japan for this purpose For this reason Rus
sian financiers and diplOmatiSts ought to give
their support to the French undertaking when
1t comes to seriously diScarding the neutraIiza-
tion of the Panama canal and placing it under
the general control or the guarantee of the
European and American powers.
The writer declares the Panama
route would be more beneficial to Rus
sia than the Nicaragua route. He
says:
This latter canal, even supposing its compile
tion possible, would be purely an American
undertaking, whereas the Panama canal re-
mains in the hands of our allies, the French, or
1t may become an international enterprise, with
the addition of strong American element to
its shareholders
The NOvoe Vremya says:
Russia must. therefore, be on her guard
against the United States, especially in view
of the enormous wealth of its Pacific shores
