THE BERLIN SENSATION.
Interest Here in the Marriage of the
Empress DoUaEer.

The news that the Dowager Empress
Of Germany has married Count SeckeH-
dorff, court chamberlain during the reign
Cf the Emperor Frederick III, is a sub
ject Of much interest among diplomats,
but il seemed impossible last evening 10
gain particulars Of the event. as repreSen-
tatiyGs of the foreign embassies and dele
cations pleaded ignorance. NJ. G. Sccllen-
Gorff, the younger brother Of the count
who is said TO have married the Empress
Dowager. could not be found last evening
at his office in the New York Tribune B.
reau, and friends indicated that he was
loath TO discuss the subject.
Lord FauncefOte. the British Amblssa-
dor, was seen in regard to the story that
the Dowager Empress had suddenly remar-
ried "I thank you for bringing me this
Intelligence" ," said he to a Times reporter.
1t is, Of course, of great interest. 1t Is
the FIRST that | have heard OF it. I know
nothing at all about the facts in the case
AID 1 am unable to deny or confirm the
story
In view of the fact that the Empres 5
Dowager is the frst-born of Queen Vic
toria. her marriage would have almost as
much interest In England a in Berlin.
The Empress Dowager-Victoria Ade-
laide Mary Louisa as she was christened-
is the eldest daughter of Queen Victoria
and is now nearly sixty years old. She
has always been famed as the most bril-
liant and the most intellectual princess
OF the British royal family. She was born
November q. 1910.
As a child she was a small prodigy of
learning, and at four she spoke French
as well as English. Later she mastered
German, and at the request of Prince Al
bert Edward, her father. she translated
profound German pamphlet which he
wished TO consider.
Immediately after the Crimean war
Prince Frederick William, son Of the
Crown Prince of Prussia and heir pre-
sumptive to the Prussian throne met
young Victoria at Balmoral. There he
wooed the girl who afterward became his
bride. She was still so young then that
the Queen and the Prince Cons0rt insisted
on at least two years delay in the mar
riage. The wedding. however, took place
in London on January %. 1853 bismarck
objected to the alliance and some OF the
old court party were ready to cavil at the
free and easy manners Of the princess;
but Berlin received her with hearty well
come and it required persistent efforts Of
foes in her own household to make her
unpopular. That end however. was at
last accomplished
The opposition from Bismarck continued
until the death of Frederick. shortly after
he ascended the throne in 1883. after the
death Of his father. That left her son.
young Wilhelm, the Emperor.
The Empress Dowager has had eight

THE SENATE PROGRAMME.
Determined Opposition to the Ship
Subsidy and Canal BilIs.


With the Porto Rican question disposed
OF for the present and the Quay case out
OF the way permanently Congress has set
tied down to business with a determina
tion among the leaders to bring the ses-
sion to an end before the meeting Of the
Republican National Convention at Phil
adelphia June 10 Only two matters on
which the Republicans are united remain
undisposed of in addition to the appropria-
tion bills and other necessary routine leg
islation. These are the joint resolutions
giving the President control of the Phil
ippines and the Clark case. When they
are out of the way It is probable that the
road will be cleared to adjournment.
At present it is the programme Of the
Senate leaders, and to which those Of the
House are not inclined to seriously OBJ
iect. to let the NiCaraguan Canal bill and
the Ship Subsidy bill go over until rext
session and 20 prevent consideration Of any
legislation on which there is not unanim-
ity Of Republican opinion. This p-o-
gramme will be carried out if the friends
Of the Ship Subsidy bill are not strong
enough to defeat it. Senators Hanna and
Frye are the especial champions of the
measure. to the passage Of which the party
is pledged, but Mr.. Allison. Chairman Of
the steering committee: Mr. Aldrich, tie
tactical manager Of the Senate Republi-
cans. and other influential Senators think
it would be bad policy to press the bill at
this session.
There is less opposition to it now how
ever than before it was amended to meet
the views of Messrs. Mcmillan OF Michigan
Nelson Of Minnesota. Mcbride Of Oregon.
and other members OF the Commerce Com
mittee who criticised its provisions as be-
ing drawn in the interest of the big ocean
vessel owners These Senators are all
friendly to the bill now but are divided
in opinion as to the wisdom Of passing
it al this session. Mr.. Mcmillan. for in
stance, thinks with Messrs. Allison and
Aldrich that Congress should rest on its
record after the Philippines resolution is
disposed Of and adjourn as soon as possible
AS the matter nov stands the
chances are that when the Senate steering
committee definitely aTranges the pro-
gramme for the remairder Of the session
it viii not include the passage Of the Ship
Subsidy bill or the bill for the construction
Of the Ncaraguan Canal even II the House
shall pass the Hepburn bill, which is not
impossible. as two days have been set
apart for its consideration.

THE IDAHO MINE TROUBLES.
Bartlett sinclair CroSs-Evnmined by
Attorney Robertson.


The ss-examination OF Bartlett Sin
clair. Governor Steuneuberg's representa-
tive at Wardner during the Coeur d'Alene
riots, was conducted By Attorney Robert
son yesterday. There was nothing in the
manner Of the attorney toward the witness
which would suggest that they had nearly
come TO blows during Tuesdays proceed
ings. Mr Robertson questioned the wit
ness upon his Interpretation OF the Con-
stitution and statutes of the State of Ifa-
no Mr.. Sinclair stated that he did rot
spend much time in examining the law,
for he received his instructions from Gov
ernor Steunenberg and did his best to TO-
low them. presuming that the Governor
was advised by competent authority.
The witnes. was questioned as to the
instructions which he had given to have
miners pursued across the State line into
Montana and there arrested without war
rant or requisition. He replied that he
had instructed his deputies but not the
military authorities, to follow miners and
arrest them, even if they had to go across
the State line. He told the committee
that he himself would take the RESPONSE
bility and answer to Governor Smith. of
Montana, if the legality Of this procedure
should be questioned or trouble ensue.

The Joint Committee on the Library, at
its regular meeting yesterday, discussed
the question Of the unveiling OF the Grant
statue, which was placed near the west
entrance to the rotunda Of the Capitol
several weeks ago. The date selected ty
the committee was May ls, but. as it is
thought desirable that appropriate cere-
monies should be held in both houses Of
Congress on the day Of the unveiling. the
presiding officers VIII be consulted before
the date is finally Ezcd. so as to prevent
its conflict with other matters.

YOUTSEY IS GUILTY.
Insanity Proceedings to be In
stituted
In a Motion For Suspension of
Judgment, Which Was Passed
Until February Term.

Georgetown, KY, Oct. 20, 1aOO.-
Twelve men, all of them of intelli-
gence and good repute, decided this
morning at 9:l2 O'Clock that Henry
e. Youtsey, formerly stenographer
and private secretary to former
Auditor Samuel II. Stone, was
guilty of the murder of Gov. VIM.
Goebel and fixed his punishment
at Imprisonment for life,
The court room was well filed
with people when the verdict was
rendered, but none of the prisoner S
relatives was present except his
father, bent by years and acute
rheumatism, who sat near the head
of the prisoners bed which had
been drawn close to the door lead
ing into the petit jury room.
When the Clerk, in loud tones,
announced the finding of the jury
the old man buried his face in his
hands and wept bitterly. The
prisoner lay perfectly still. Not
one of his muscles moved and there
was no change in the expression Ol
his face.
The bed was pulled back, the
door closed, the jury filed out and
the celebrated trial was at an end.
The third man tried for the assas-
sination of Gov, Goebel had been
convicted.
MOTION FOR ARREST OF JUDGMENT.
The attorneys for the condemned
man made a motion to arrest the
judgment, on the ground that the
offense charged was not under the
form of law. They then made an
other motion, praying that judg-
ment be suspended until inquiry
could be made as to the defendant S
sanity. Q Both motions were passed
by the court for hearing on Febru-
airy 2, the second day of the next
term of the Scott County Circuit
Court.
sAERIFF TO DECIDE ABOUT PRIso-
NER's REMOVAL.
On the motion of both the court
and the Commonwealth Attorney,
an order was entered, commanding
the Sheriff to remove the prisoner
to the Frankfort Jail for safe-keep-
ing. On account of the condition
of Youtsey the court left the time OF
his removal to the direction of the
Sheriff and the attending physi-
clans.
