WOULD COME TO AMERICA.
Anarchist Malatesta May Have to
Flee England.

New York, Aug ga dispatch to
the World from London says:
A statement which has reached here
from Rome that the Italian government
has demanded from the British govern
men the expulsion of Anarchist Mala-
tesla from England, receives no Gre
dence.
Malatesta, when asked about the
statement, replied: 81 do not believe
that any such request has been made.
The Swiss government was approached
by the Italian police when I resided in
Geneva but it wisely refused to do
anything in the matter.
But said the correspondent, Sup
pose you were warned to leave England
within twenty-four hours, where would
you go?''
Malatesta replied: ST cannot suppose
anything of the kind. I have committed
no crime in England. I get my living
here as an electrical engineer. If such
an order was given me by the police I
should go to America
Signor Minetti, chancellor OF the Ital-
ian embassy in London, questioned on
the subject, said: "Wehope for the
best, but so far we have received no in
structions on this head from the gov
eminent in Rome We have SO far
refrained from asking for Malatesta's
expulsion for fear of refusal by the
British government 1 doubt whether
the constitution will permit the expul-
sion of an anarchist unless he is proved
guilty Of some infraction of English
law

pean War Sentiment.

Chicago, Aug. 2s.-P. D. Armour ar
rived in Chicago yesterday morning in
perfect health, after visit of three
months at Bad Neuheim, near Hamburg,
Germany. He will be in his Office this
morning, but will pay visit to Ocono-
mowoc in a few days.
Eyes, know what you want he said
You want what the New York report
ers wanted. You want me to tell the
state of feeling in Germany and France,
the prospect of war in Europe. the merits
of the presidential campaign, the state
of trade, and how I liked the Paris ex-
position.
'WelI, I cannot talk on any of those
subjects. I did not visit the exposition,
and as to European settlement and the
war in China know absolutely moth
ing.
you see, went abroad for my health,
and paid strict attention to that and
to nothing else. staid at Neuheim the
whole three months, and though I did
not learn anything about public affairs
1 got perfectly restored state of health.
1 got some benefit from the baths there
a year ago, but this time got ten times
more. I feel that I am perfectly restor-
ed and will be at my desk bright and
early tomorrow, as usual"

SCHARN MURDER MYSTERY.
No Trace of Persans Who Killed New
York Woman Discovered.

New York. Aug. 2S.-The mystery which
surrounds the killing of Kathryn Scharn
some time on August IS has not yet been
cleared up by the police detectives. who
appear to be completely baffled. It was
admitted last night that they were still
looking up the associates of the dead
woman and her brother, with the hope
that some of them may be able to throw
some light on the case.
Little weight is attached by the detec-
tives to the theory that the woman was
murdered by Sneakthief whom she sur
prised while he was ransacking her
rooms The detectives say they are con-
WINGED that the crime was the work of a
man who was well acquainted with the
woman and it is along these lines that
they are working. Some of them are in
clined to believe that the murder was
committed by a friend of her brother. The
police say that the dead girl knew most
of his friends, and that some of them
are known to the police as cheap thieves
and young men with criminal Instincts
They are frequenters of the neighborhood
in which the Scharns lived
Acting District Attorney Mcintyre said
last night that no attempt would be made
to have Fred Scharn indicted for honi-
eide on the evidence now in possession OF
the police.
Young Scharn will not be indicted on
the evidence we now have" said Mr. Nc
Intyre. There is nothing to connect him
with the murder. and I do not believe he
dictment was secured on the evidence
which has been collected up to this time
we would not only be thrown out of court
but laughed at"
Coroner Fitzpatrick will on Friday begin
his inquiry into the death OF the woman.

APLATFORM ERROR.
Alleged Mistake ia Figures Regarding
Exports and Imports.

indianapolis, Ind, Aug. 2s.-A stats
teal mistake of 81, SOC. 600, 900 in the Re
publican national platform is the dis
covery made by +. J. Van Vorhis. The
platform contains the statement that
during the three years of the Mckinley
administration the excess of exports
over imports was 81. 483, 00O 900, and this
is shown to be several times the total
excess OF exports over imports for the
10Y years ending 1897, which excess, ac-
cording to the platform, was 1888, 600, 000
DR.. Van Vorhis, who is close student
of politics and fond of delving into sta
tistics, made a careful inquiry as to the
truth of this statement, which tends to
show the marvellous prosperity of the
United States, and he finds from the
Summary of Finance and Commerce, the
bulletin issued monthly by the bureau
of statistics, that the excess of exports
over imports for the 107 years ending
in 1897 was 81, 1897 ,O0O, 900, or five times the
amount given in the platform

EDMUNDS FAVORS M'KINLEY
Says He is Unwilling to Trust the
Men Bryan Has Around Him.

Fabyan House, N. H. Aug. 2S-Former
Senator George Edmunds of Vermont,
who is spending a few days at the Fabyan
house, this afternoon declared that, while
still opposed to expansion as a national
policy, he favors the reelection of Presi-
dent Mckinley
He upheld the presidents course in
sending an army to China without the
authorization of congress on the ground
that the emergency demanded prompt
ton, and pronopnced the plank in the
Democratic platform dealing with impe-
rialism inadequate and not likely to be
fulfilled. Trusts, he asserts, do not form
a party ISSUE as business men will stand
together and get much consideration
from one party as from another.
ut is pretty well settled" he said, that
we will have either Mckinley or Bryan,
and I would be unwilling to trust the
country to the men that Bryan has
arund him.

ria, who holds a mortgage of $4,000, with
accrued interest of $500 on the property
at IA West Twenty-eighth street. owned
by May Irwin, the actress, moved before

proceedings in foreclosure. The plaintiff

story tenement, was not worth more than
$27, 900, and as it is necessary to serve
summons by publication on one of the de-
fendants receiver should collect the
rents till the case is concluded.
John J. Buckley, attorney for May r.
win, said that his clinet had offered the in
terest so as to have the suit dismissed, but
that the offer was declined because it was
not accompanied by the principal He said
that the tplaintif was amply protected, as
the property is worth $4,000 The court re-
served decision.

DARE FOR ROOSEVELT.
Senator Pettigrew Wants Ocular De-
monstration of Powers With Lasso.


monstration of Powers With Lasso.
Chicago, Aug. 2s.-Colonel Roosev cit
is to be put to the cowboys " test
when he Strikes South Dakota on
his northwestern campaign trip next
month. Senator Pettigrew is to cha1-
lenge him to a lasso-throwing match.
The senator vii mot array himself in
''chaps" or put on six-inch spurs or
straddle a bucking bronchO. He will do
his throwing by proxy. He has
out a maverick or a wild-eyed steer
from a, bunch of cattle and throw him
with the rope with celebrity and preci-
sion. This Democmratic cowboy, on
behalf of Senator Pettigrew, will chal-
lenge the redOubtable Teddy to a
trial of skill in lasso- throwing, in sub
DUNG the perpendicular eccentricitieS
of a bucking broncho and in other feats
in which rough riders are supposed to
excel.
So much has been written and told of
Colonel Roosevelt's versatility in all
that pertains to ranch life and cowboys
that the cattlemen of Senator Petit
crews state are anxious to see Teddy
make good" They say they do not
know much about the Erie canal or the
Tammany ice trust of the strenuous
life of a New York politician with
wild, woolly-West trimmings, but they
claim to be somewhat familiar with
cattle and prairie life. They would like
to see Teddy on a brOncho.
Senator PettigreW said yesterday:
when Roosevelt comes to South Da-
kota he will be challenged to a 1assO-
throwing match by a Democratic cow
boy. While we all know he is one of
the braveSt soldiers and spilled more
ink and less blood than anybody else,
we want ocular demonstration Of his
prOWesS"

a well known Irish-American Republic
can, has decided to vote for Bryan after
reading one of Mark Hanna's speeches.

have voted the Republican ticket ever
since.

dynamiter, but I left Ireland to be free

would die at the guns.
