FOUND DEAD.
Stabbed to Death BY Seine I'm
kDeWn Person.

Hidaigo county Was the scene of
another murder mystery this week,
the dead body Of a missing man be-
ing found in the brush with evi-
dences OF violent death. The
body was that of one Francisco
Hernandez, who lived on the Re-
rampage ranch on the of T. III.
Rhodes in the northern part of Hi
dalgo county. Ee had been missing
since Sunday night, 1t @hjch tire
he left his home on some Grand,
telling his wife that he would re-.
turn shortly. He did not return,
however, aud all search for him
proved useless, until Thursday,
when his body was discovered "
ing-in the rear Of a field, hidden
III the brush.
Justice of the Peace E. r. JEFF
ferds was summoned. as soon as
the horrible discovery was made,
and held an inquest. Examination
disclosed the fact that the deceased
had been stabbed in the abdomen,
and the verdict was that he had
been murdered by some unknown
person or persons. There is said
to be no clue as to the perpetrator
of the deed, though the officers
have some suspicion that it may
be a certain individual who has
disappeared from his accustomed
haunts since the disappearance Of
the murdered man.
The body of HERNANDEZ was
badly decomposed and the hands
and feet we're partially eaten of,
bat it was fully identified. It WAS
buried near the spot where it lay.

CHOATE SEES
LORD SALISBURY
Latter Does Not Relish the Question
Presented to Him.
ENGLAND IN A QUANDARY.
PuzzIipg What 10 DO Over Foodstuns
as Contraband-Will Not Re
ply Burriedly.

London, Jan. s.--The United States
ambassador, Joseph II. Choate, visited
the British premier, Lord Salisbury. at
the foreign Office this evening for the
purpose Of making the first official rep
reservations on the subject Of the Della
goa bay -four seizure. Mr.. Choate re-
oelved no definite reply as the premier
informed him that the British govern
ment had not yet arrived at any de-
clslon as 10 whether or ont foodstuffs
were contraband OF war. But Lord
Salisbury assured NJ Choate the COM
mercial rights Of the United States
would be equltably considered, and that
decision In this important matter
would be reached as soon as possible.
The Interview was brief
The Associated Press learns that
Lord Salisbury has not only got the at
torney general, Sir Richard Webster,
working hard on the question Of the
Delagoa bay seizures, but that he Is
consulting with the ablest lawyers In
Great Britain. To quote a high official:
England is between scylla and
Charydlos. II we declare foodstuffs con-
traband we put ourselves in a most
awkward position should we be neu-
tral power In some future war. we are
most anxious to conserve the interests
OF the United States. yet self-preserva-
ton must necessarily come first
IL was further learned by repre-
sentative OF the Associated Press that
Great Britain may lay down new regu-
latlons regarding contraband, making
a distinction between food evidently In
tended for domestic purposes and 1000
palpably intended for field rations. IN
der the latter head might come classes
OF canned goods.
The British government fully realizes
that the representations OF Mr.. Choate
will compel 1t to decide this far reach
Ing matter, and while his request has
been made and received In the most
friendly spirit, the quandary Is not rel
lshed by Lord Salisbury, though 1t Is
not regarded as likely to cause inter-
national friction. One thing is certain,
the bill will not be settled hurriedly.
though It is impossible even for the
cabinet minister to forecast the GATE
when Mr.. Choate will receive a definite
answer which must settle Greet Brit
aims stand upon the question OF CONTRA
band.

port now open will be closed as no le-
gal complications are expected, and the
water IN the north section Of the canal
allowed to rise to the level OF the water
east OF the Campbell avenue dam,
where the real canal commences. When
this Is done the dam at Campbell
avenue win be cut, the collateral canal
having served It's purpose and the
gates at Lockport opened again. The
water In the Chicago river today Is
about eight inches lower than II was
yesterday but this according 10 men,
beers Of the sanitary board Is not due TO
the flow OF water in the canal and Is
not more than the usual variation IN
the depth Of the river.
Engineer Randolph has addressed
report TO the members Of the inspection
commission showing in detail the con-
dltion Of every branch Of the work.
The understanding Is that the COM
mission wA reply at once, pointing out
any finishing touches needed to make
the canal conform with the letter OF
the law. The trustees will do all that Is
required In this direction and the COM
mission VIII then submit It's final re-
port to the governor. There is no doubt
as 70 the attitude OF the commission
and Gov. Tanner and a formal permit
Is expected soon after the report has
been made. The special committee viii
meet in Chicago a week from today
