1t was found on the Forty-sixth street
side Of the ruins, about Is feet below

Only that part of the head from the jaw
down was still on the neck. The body
was very badly mangled. &
The remains Of another body were
found on the Fifth avenue side of the
ruins. It consisted of mass of charred
intestines. Besides this mass was a
thigh bone from which all the flesh had
been burned. Near this was another
bone, but it could not be told to what
part of the, body it belonged. These
parts were found in q section of the
cellar adjoining the entrance.
The fifth body to be recovered was q
charred trunk, with the legs below the
knees and the arms below the elbows
missing. Opinion diff1rs as to whether
it is the body Of a man or a woman, but
it was thought to be the latter.

by Rev. H. H. Abrams of MARSHALL

He makes the point that the saloonkeep-

sions of the new code adopted by the
last legislature, which provides that a
petition Of consent must be signed by
65 per cent of all the voters at the last
general election and permission granted

adoption Of the new code and have not
thought it necessary to obtain new

WASHINGTON, March 22.-Secretary
Alger has come to the determination to
maintain summer camps for the United
States troops IN the Southern states, and
the delegation of Georgians who called
upon him to secure that object will be
80 informed. It is also the intention to
maintain one of the camps in the neigh
borhood of Atlanta. The only condition
is that the present Georgia quarantine
regulations, which operate SO as to pre-.
vent the movements of troops abso-
lutely demanded by the military needs
Of the case shall be adapted to the re-
quirements. The number of troops to
be located at any one camp will not be
large, for it is said at the department
that only about $1,000 soldiers will be
SO located, but there is likely to be much
changing around among the men. The
troops returning from Cuba are to be
detained in Georgia camps about 20
days at least before being sent to their
homes or to the Northern posts.

It is understood, to <modus vivend to
be observed along the Alaskan boun-
Diary in order to obviate the danger of q
clash, pending the final delimination Of
the boundary. Need of this has been
emphasized within the past few days
by reports Of battle between the Ca
madam and the American prospectors
on the Porcupine river. These reports
have caused considerable uneasiness in
official circles in London and efforts
have been made to learn the facts.
There has been no official information,
however, either here or in London.
just such clash has been expected and
the reports have served to direct the
attention Of officials to the necessity, Of
Eneeting Border Arrangemen
A preliminary move in this direction
was made as soon as the joint Anglo
American commission adjourned with
out settling the border question. Sir
Julian then suggested that temporary
arrangement be made. This will main
tain the status quo, each side making
no further advance pending a final
agreement on the boundary. A tenn
porary line probably would be run by
the two governments. This would not
affect permanent interests, but would
serve as a legal barrier between the law

a.2 HUTCHINSON, Kan, March 22.-An
atrocicus crime was revealed here when
the coroner and his assistants removed
the dead bodies Of five little children
from the house occupied by John Moore,
which burned at an early hour. A cor.
oner's jury investig gated the case, and in
accordance with the jury's returns.
Moore, father Of the dead children, was
arrested on q charge of murder. The
tragedy has caused much excitement
here and there is some talk of lynching
the prisoner.
When the firemen and neighbors
reached the burning house the father
was the only member Of the family of
seven found outside. His actions were
queer and he would not talk. While the
Building was sim Burning
and his children were within the burn
ing walls, he took q horse from his
stable and rode away. When the fire.
men entered the house, after having
quenched the flames, they found the
five children lying side by side in a bed
on the floor, all dead, but not badly
burned. The skull of each child was
deeply indented and from the dents
long fractures extended. All but one
Of the children had been stabbed in the
neck.
Moore showed little concern when
the jury returned the verdict charging
him with murder. He has been out Of
work for some time and continually
brooded over the fact. Mrs. Moore
was away from home at the time Of
the fire. u

Correspondents on Account OF tho Dem.
ocratic Banquet Made Public. ,g
4 CHATTANOOGA, Tenn. March 22.-
Hon. w. j.. Bryan has made public the
following letter written by him to
Perry Belmont, president of the Demo-
cratic club of New York, who had in
vited the Nebraskan to speak at the
banquet of that club on jefferson day.
Before replying to the invitation Mr..
Bryan requested that Mr.. Belmont state
his position on the principles of the
Democratic platform, having repudi-
ated these doctrines in 1886. Mr.. Bel
mont replied that individual opinions
had not been considered in issuing the
invitation on behalf of the club In
reply to this Mr.. Bryan declines the in
Vitation and says: ",
81 might plead previous engage
ment as reason for declining, but
frankness colnpels me to add another
reason. appreciate the compliment
which the Democratic club pays me in
extending an invitation, but I do not
understand how individual opinions can
be ignored at q political gathering. You
are the president of the club and repre-
sent the club before the public. Your
position upon public questions was we'll
known in 1896, and your telegram indi-
Gates that your position has not been
changed. My position upon public
questions is also well known. The an
tagonism between our opinions is so
great that we cannot with propriety
join in a political banquet given in
honor Of Democracy's patron saint.
Bryan's Position Plainly Stated.
Jefferson stood for certain we'll de-
fined principles. If your views are a
correct reflection. of his ideas, I fear
that my voice would sound discordant
note at your banquet. If, on the other
hand, the Chicago platform applies (as
I believe it does) Jefersonian principles
to present conditions, then your con-
spicuous presence at the Jeffersonian
banquet would not honor the memory
of the worlds greatest Democrat.
"Do not misunderstood me. You
may be right and I may be wrong, but
I take it for granted that we are equally
conscientious, and I trust that / may
not show myself less courageous than
you. You proclaimed to your fellow
citizens in 1895 that my election upon q
Democratic platform would endanger
the nations welfare; you will pardon
me if ! suggest that Q banquet presided
over by you will injure rather than aid
the Democratic party. believe in har-
monizing personal differences, but diff
ferences in principle cannot be harmon
ized, and, in my judgment, no party
advantage Is to be derived from political
communion between Jeffersonian Demo
Gratis who stand upon the Chicago plat
form and the Republican allies who
masquerade as Democrats between CAM
paigns in order to give more potency to
their betrayal of Democratic principles
on election day." M
