FAMILY BRUTALLY MURDERED.
WOMAN AND FOUR CHILDREN
BEATEN TO DEATH.
Believed That the Husband and
Father Committed the While Tenn
porarily Insane-Used Hammer.

Kansas City, March "A special to
the Star from Abilene. Kan, says: De-
tails We're received today OF the brutal
murder twenty miles northeast of here
of Mrs. John Gilbert, wife Of far
mer, and her four small children. The
family lived in practically one room,
the floors, ceiling and furniture of
which were literally smeared with blood
and brains. In a. bed in one corner,
clad only in her underclothing, lay the
wife and mother and her 2-year-old
babe. both with skulls crushed and
pounded out of human seTnblance. On
another bed lay the bodies of the two
little daughters and the boy, all under
years of age, their heads crushed and
beaten. The children had been killed
While asleep.
The mother had apparently been con-
quered only after fearful struggle. In
the bed with the three children was
found large hammer, with which the
deed was done. The family had been
dead about forty-eight hours when
found, and everything points. to the
husband and father as being the MUIR
derer. The coroner's jury today charged
him with the crime. 1T is believed
that Gilbert, who has fed, had become

Mr.. BA|L[Y'S DISGUST
Texan Announces His Retirement
From Democratic Leadership.
HIS ADVICE IGNORED
COLLEAGUES HAVE TRAMPLED
CONSTITUTION UNDER FOOT.
Refusal of Democratic Members to
Unseat Wheeler and Other Army
Officers the Cause of Mr.. Bailey's
Observation-Disclosures the Consti-
tuition Should Be Observed.

Washington, March 3.-Representa-
tive Bailey of Texas announced today
that he would not be a candidate for
the Democratic leadership in the next
congress.
The refusal of Democrats yesterday
to follow his lead in the demand for the
consideration of the resolutions declar-
ing General Wheeler and the members
who accepted army; commissions had
thereby vacated their seats, induced
him to make this announcement.
Mr.. Bailey gave the following state
ment of his attitude:
Il want it distinctly understood that
/ am not actuated by any feeling of
pique or personal disappointment, but
1 am proceeding purely upon the idea
that as a large number of Democrats
are unwilling to insist upon an obedi-
ence to a perfectly plain provision of
the constitution, they ought not to be
made responsible for the leadership of
a man who believes that the constitu-
ton is the supreme law of the land,
and ought to be obeyed at all times by
all men. 1 would raise the same ques-
ton again and [ will raise it as often
as it presents itself, but when 1 raise
1t from my place In the ranks of the
party [ must take the responsibility,
and others will not be compelled to
share the responsibility with me. l be-
lieve that the Democrats who voted to
allow these military appointees of the
president to retain their seats in con-
gress greatly mistake the sentiments of
their Democratic constituents. 1t is ut
terly impossible for me to believe that
any man in this country Isl more pop
ular with the Democratic masses than
the constitution, a reverence for which
has been the chief article of our faith.
I regret the vote almost beyond ex-
preston, because l doubt with that
precedent established any appointee OF
the president will ever again be denied
a right to sit in the house of represent
tatiyeI"

NEW PREMIER FOR SPAIN.
Senior silvela Will Attempt to Form
a Cabinet

Madrid, March 3.-The queen regent,
as the result of her consultations with
the statesmen, generals and political
leaders, informed Senior Sagasta that
she desired to retain the present cham
Der, and then she invited him to recon
struct the cabinet.
Senior Sagasta replied that it would
be impossible for him to remain pre-
mier without a dissolution.
Thereupon the queen regent referred
the same request to Senior Montero
Rios, who declined for the same rea-
son.
Finally Senior Silvela, the Conserva-
tive leader, accepted the task, and it is
expected that he will submit a Conser-
vative ministry to her majesty for her
approval.
The newspapers predict that popular
demonstrations will greet a Conserva-
tive ministry.
The cortes will be dissolved, the new
elections taking place toward the end
of April, and the new chamber of dep
uties meeting in May. Count de Ras-
con, Spanish ambassador to Great
Britain, and Leon Y Castillo, ambassa-
dor to France, have rendered their res
ignations The projects and secretaries
of state have also resigned.

DIAL HAWKINS KNOCKED GU
FRANK ERNIE FINISHED HIM IN
THE SEVENTH.
Result Was a Great Surprise to Haw-
kins and His Friends - Terrific
Blow On the Jaw.

San Francisco, March 3.-Frank Brne
of Buffalo knocked out Dial Hawkins of
San Francisco in the seventh round of
what was TO be a twenty-round con-
test at Woodward's pavilion tonight.
The result came as complete surprise
to Hawkins and his friends, as until
the end OF the sixth round Hawkins
had the better of the contest. Erne
had fought almost entirely on the de-
fensiye and many predicted that the
fight would last the limit
Throughout the first five rounds,
Hawkins worked a double action at
tack, landing with his left alternately
on Erne's left eye and on the left side
OF Erne's stomach. In the first round
Dal knocked his man down with
hard left just below the eye and Erne
remained down six seconds At every
opportunity he repeated the blow, vary
ing it with his left stomach punch,
until Erne was as red as lobster
The feature of Erne's fight was his
magnificent defense. He guarded up
percuts innGmerable and after the first
round did not appear to be materially
affected by his punishment, He fought
warily and watchfully, feinting with
his left and landing with his right
whenever opportunity offered.
In the decisive seventh both men
came up in good condition, after a
comparatively inactive round, Hawkins
started in with an aggressive left,
landing on Erne's body. The Buffalo
boy. after a few seconds of guarding,
suddenly started in and rushed Haw-
l5ins all over the ring, Dial responding
gamely, and there We're several lively
rallies. Then like a flash Erne made
an opening, feinting with his left and
driving savagely with his right on
Hawkins jaw, Dial dropped on his
back, completely knocked out. He had
to be carried to his corner and it was
three minutes before he recovered
consciousness. Erne carried little evil
dence Of the punishment he received in
the earlier rounds. and walked to his
corner smiling blandly, and cheered by
the crowd.

Struction Work.

Struct1On WOrk.
Washington, March 3.-The conferees
on the river and harbor bill have prac-
tically reached an agreement The
Nicaragua canal paragraph will be
greatly modified and will appropriate a
million dollars for an examination of
all routes, under direction of the presi-
dent. The report of the commission

statement as to the result of the con-
ference: I'm the matter of the Nicara-
qua canal, the conferees provided a
substitute for the senate provision,
giving the president full authority to
investigate all isthmian routes, partic-
ularly the Nicaraguan. He is to have
all the engineers and other employees
he may need for this purpose, and is
allowed to appoint the engineers either
from the army or from civil life. He
is then to report his conclusions to the
next congress. For this purpose we
appropriate $1,O00,00O.

A SUPERINTENDENT'S REWARD
Con- Cal. & Va. Stakeholder Sued
Mackay For the Amount.

San Francisco, March 9.-The case OF
Theodore Fox against John w. Mackay
and the Consolidated California 81 Vir-
GINA Mining company has been decid-
ed by the supreme court in favor of the
defendants. Fox is a stakeholder in the
mining company, and Mackay was a
director in the Nevada bank. In the
complaint Mackay was accused of con-
spiracy to defraud the mining COM
pany, with the aid of its board of di-
rectors, of 100000, which was paid to W.
H. Patton, superintendent of the mine,
having been voted to him by the direc-
tors for eXtinguisSling a fire in its
lower levels. In the superior court
Mackay won the case on the grounds
of non-liability. and the supreme court
affirms the decision.

Rome, March 3.-The physicians of
the pope say they are quite satisfied
with his condition. When leaving the
pontiff last evening they predicted for
him long life.
This being the anniversary of the
coronation of the pope, there were the
unusual ceremonies of flag hosting
and visits from prelates, notabilities
and diplomats, who inscribed their
names in the visitors book.
The doctors say that the pontiff's
mental and physical condition is ex-

in which he says: 81 hasten to notify

The lack of unity in the CHINESE

practices, particularly on the part o.
Germany. On two occasions already,
because of assaults on missionaries,
she has taken violent possession of

compensation for the death and the
losses inflicted upon these soldiers OF

tain her point of view, less than two

China was expected to be one of self

action is now shown by the fact that
the Emperor of Russia has declared
that his Chinese ports shall be free
