WELL POSTED.
President Mckinley Had Long Confer
ence with Senator Beveridge About
the Philippine Situation.

Washington. Sept. 9.-President Nc
Kinley is now possessed of the fullest
information possible upon the Phil
ippine situation. Yesterday the presi-
dent, in a two-hours' conference, was
given the benefit of Senator Bever-
idge's observations in the Philippines.
When Senator Beveridge left the white
house he followed the course which
has characterized him since landing
from the Philippines and declined to
talk for publication. 1t is understood
that the senator is reserving his opin-
ions and his views for a speech in the
senate. He will not even express an
opinion as to whether the administra-
tion is pursuing the right course in
the Philippines.

KILLED HIS SON.
NJ. H Roberts Murders Sidney Roberts and
Then Infiicts a Mortal Wound on Him
seIf-Both Were Insane.

Hannibal, Mo-. Sept. On. II. Rob
erts, a machinist, killed his son, Sidney
Roberts. at his home here and then
shot himself, infiicting mortal wound.
The son was killed while asleep. Sid
ney Roberts was sent to the insane asy-
lum about four years ago, but was re-
leased as cured several weeks ago. The
elder Roberts threatened the life of his
son upon the young mans return, and
was undoubtedly insane when the deed
was committed. The murderer is a
prominent member of the Odd Fellows
and of the A. o. .. W. He left note
to the coroner, saying an inquest would
be unnecessary. He said he hated all
doctors, anyhow.
