mony in the trial of James Howard,

Identification of the prisoner.
The most sensational witness, how
ever, was James S%tubbleReld o one
legged and one-armed ex-sheriff OF
Clay comfy. Stubblefeld testified
that Howard %exultantly told him that
he fired the shot that took Goebel's
life. His testimony in detail was that
Howard stopped ut his house in Feb

Shortly after he came in Stubblefeld

Inc work goes on of recovering the
dead from the mass of debris that lines
the south side of what remains of the
city. In one day 1O7 bodies were re-
covered and cremated. The number
recovered and cremated today has not
been reported as yet, but it will ex-
coed one hundred or more. The task

ever, in the crippled condition of the
fire department and waterworks would
endanger the remaining portion of the
city. AS it now stands, this immense
mass OF debris, strewn with dead bod
les, the carcasses Of decaying animals,
etc, is n serious n to the health
OF h city and is the most difficult
problem the board of health has to
deal with.
The work of cleaning up the streets

been working for nothing, and if they
refused they were impressed by the

The keeper of the ~life.saving station

the station gone and that a friebtfnl
scene of d~esolation exists there. He saws
$50 bodies were buried there; that the
prairie and marshes are strewn with
carcasses of animals and reptiles and
that the stencil is sitting.
Hope and determination have seized
the people OF Galveston. They realize
that the task before them is gigantic,
yet with the generous aid that is flow
ing to them in IL broad stream from all
parts OF the country and world, and
their w inao.nitable purpose, the
sick and wounded will be healed, the
destitute relieved aud the regeneration

city will be rebuilt and placed on a
more enduring foundation and her

is the spirit displayed by the grevious-

Work is being pushed under u sys-

ANXIOUS FOR PEACE
Prince O. ing Says He and Ii Hung Chang
Have Power to Negotiate.

Prince O. ing Says He and Ii Hung Chang
Have Power to Negotiate.
The desire of China to actually begin
the negotiations for peace vas evil
denccd in a dispatch from Prince
Ching, delivered by Minister WI to The
state department. The dispatch was
dated at Pekin, September 8, and in it
Prince Ching stated he was clothed
with full authority along with Ii Hung
Chang to negotiate for peace. He ex-
pressed a desire to proceed in the mat
ter and ask Minister WI to submit a
request to the secretary of state to
send instructions to Minister Conger
to begin negotiations at once.
1t is probable that no immediate re-
spouse to the request for instructions
to Minister Conger can be given, as
Prince Ching's request will have to be
laid before the president and sufficient
time given to consider the question of
his credentials, as well as the desira-
bility OF proceeding at once. Moreover
tits likely that Minister Conger's judg-
ment as to when the actual negotia-
lions should open will govern to a con-
siderable extent. Whether Prince
Ching's request has been made to other
powers as we'll as the United States is
not known here, but in view of the de-
sire to have Mr.. Conger proceed at
once it Is probable that the Chinese
officials are ready to negotiate with
the powers individually or with them
as a whole through the medium of a
commission.
Among those being mentioned unof-
fcially as being available in case a
commission is determined upon to car
ry forward the negotiations are Presi-
dent Schurman of Cornell university,
John Barrett, late Minister to Siam,
and DR.. Hill, the present first assistant
secretary of state.
General Chaffee's telegram, speaking
of the Russian railroad construction,
is regarded as highly important, in
view OF the disclosure Of the purpose of
the Russian government to reconstruct
the railroad from Taku to Tiep Tsin
and thence to Pekin showing, it is be-
lieved, the expectation of the Russian
that at least some Russian
force will be maintained at Pekin
through the winter.
Through Admiral Remey the state
has been advised of the ar
rival of Special Commissioner Rockhill
at Taku from Shanghai.

A Berlin, Sept. IS, dispatch says:
The foreign office has sent a tele-
graphic note to the German embassies
at Washington, London, Paris, st.
Petersburg, Rome, Vienna and Toxic.
The text of the note, as the north Ger
man Gazette gives it, is as follows:
THE government of the emperor
holds as preliminary to entering upon
diplomatic relations with the Chinese
government that hose persons must
be delivered up who have been proven
to be the original and real instigators
OF The outrages against international
law which have occurred at Pelin. The
lumber of those who were merely in
struments in carrying out the outrages
Is too great. Wholesale executions
would be contrary to the civilized con-
science, n the circumstances of such
a group OF leaders cannot be complete
~ ascertained. But u few whose guilt
is notorious should be delivered up to
punishments.
Evidence Not Lacking.
The representatives of the powers at
fekin are in a position to give or bring
forward convincing evidence. Less
Importance attaches to the number of
punished than to their character as
chief instigators as leaders.
The government believes it can
count on the unanin,ity of all cabinets
IN regard to this point, inasmuch as
indifference to the idea of Just atone
would be equivalent to indiffer-
ence to a repetition of the crime. The
government proposes, therefore, that
the CABINETS concerned should instruct
their representatives at Pekin to indi-
cate these leading Chinese personaees
from whose guilt in instigating or per.
outrages all doubt is ex-
ciuded. (signed) "VoN BuELow."

Death Comes to Edward A. Davis After
Il Fruitless Quest.
Death came to Edward A. Davis in a
ward in the county hospital in Chicago
AID ended a life made miserable by a
fruitless quest for wealth that many
times was all but in his grasp. Years
of struggling for the fortune that he
claimed unbalanced his mind and his
wife and family were parted from him
by a decree of the courts. Edward
Davis was one of several sons of John
A. Davis of Chicago. The latter was a
brother j udge AndrewJ j. Davis of Mon
tana, whose death precipitated one of
the most bitter legal contests for mil
lions ever fought in western courts.
John A. Davis was chosen as admin
istrator of the estate, but died shortly
after the appointment. 1t was then
that Edward Davis began the fight in
his w behalf which ended so disas-
trously.

SAD CASE OF PR. MILLER
Veteran Editor and Political Writer Men.
tally Unbalanced.

Veteran Editor and Political Writer Men.
tally Unbalanced.
DR.. George L. Miller, the veteran ed.
-itor and political writer of Omaha. has
been suffering from q mental ailment
for some time and his disease took a
violent form Tuesday night, necessi-
Eating restraint. He spent the early
portion Of the evening in the lobby Of
the Paxton hotel, where he attracted
some attention by speaking disjointed-
ly OF a fortune of "a, 100000 that had
just been left him. He insisted on hir-
ing twenty carriages to celebrate the
event. His friends finally induced him
to go home, but he became SO violent
there that DIR. Bridges deemed it ad.
visable to take him to the police sta
ton for safe keeping.
This outbreak was the elimination
of a mental breakdown that has been
noticed by DR.. Miller's friends for some
time. Until last night, however, his
mental arrangement has usually taken
the torm of dependency. He has FIRE.
quently complained that since his mis-
fortunes he has not had a friend upon
whom he could rely. His ailment is
directly traceable to the misfortunes
that have befallen him recently-the
loss of a magnificent residence and
many valuable relics and curiosities at
Seymour park, the death of his wife
and the dwindling away Of his means.
DR.. Bridges fears that DR.. Miller's
mind is permanently affected and that
he may become violent. DR.. Miller is
seventy-three years of age.
DR.. Miller was taken to st. Bernard's
hospital in Council Bluffs Wednes
day. He became very violent when
Sergeant Whalen came to take him to
the carriage waiting to take him across
the river, but quieted down after being
placed in the carriage. He will be
kept at st. Bernard's until it has been
ascertained as to whether or not there
is any hope of his ultimate recovery.
An application has been fled before
Judge Vinsonhaler to have Lyman
Richardson appointed as his guardian.
