.JEAN BAPNSE S|PDO VERY GREAT EMERGENCY
CONNECTED WITH ANARCHIST
PLOT.
The Youth Who Attempted Life of
Prince of Wales Now in Hands Of
the Brussels Police.

COPENHAGEN, April 5.-The Prince
and Princess of Wales arrived here this
evening and were met at the railway
station by King Christian of Denmark
and the entire royal family.
BRUSSELS, April 4.-The would-be
assassin who fired twice at the Prince
of Wales at the station here today is
a tinsmith named Sipido, a resident
of Brussels, 16 years of age. His pock.
cts were found to be full of anarchist
literature.
When examined by the railroad sta
tion officials Sipido declared he intend.
ed to kill the Prince of Wales, that
he didn't regret his act and that he
was ready to do it again if given a
chance to do so.

Sipido, the Belgian youth attempted
the life of the Prince of Wales yester-
day, was not submitted to any further
examination today. His attitude is de-
jected and he appears very tired, hav-
ing had little sleep. He continues not
to express regret at his crime, but has
repeatedly requested permission to see
his mother. No interview between
them, however, will be allowed fol
some days.

magistrate decided to confront SipidC

Writes That His Good Opinion of the
Chinese Emperor Has Been Strength

The idea that Kwang Hsu, the Chi

by the opinions of those who have come
in contact with him, or had 0ppOrtuni-
ties to view him and his acts at close

retary of the American legation at
Peking, who has charge of all legal
matters in connection with the legation
and the American diplomatic relations
with China, writing to G. j. Hutchins
of this city, under date of April "a, 1898,
says: Matters political are very quiet
here now as compared with the exciting
times we passed through together last
summer. The old conservatism is para
one can never tell just What may hap
mount, but there appears to be very lit
tie anti-foreign feeling. But of course,
one can never tell pust what may nap
pen here. l have been much
interested since my return in collecting
the reform edicts of last summer. They
strike me now, in the light of the de-
nouement, as something really wonder
full, and the favorable impression I re-
ceived of H I. M Kwang Hsu at the
time of our audience at the palace, is
greatly strengthened by a study of
what he, in the face of insuperable diff
culties, tried to do for his people, and
the patriotic effort he made to raise his
country to more equal position among
the nations"
Mr.. Hutchins who had unusual op-
portunities for observation of the cur
rent of events in China, says that he
himself, saw, during the period of re-
form, hundreds of Yamens petty
courts, residences of petty officials
turned into schoolhouses through the
direction and efforts of the Emperor

occupied the Yamens, officers who
served no purpose but to squeeze the
people and add to corruption, being

THE FIRST MESSAGE.

Molokai or Maui will probably be the
place to which the first wireless mes
sage will be sent, as it is the intention
to establish those stations first after
Honolulu. Hawaii will be reached a
week later. May 1 has been set as the
day for auctioning off the privilege of
sending the first message. Morgan
will sell it. Indications are that bid
ding will be very lively. It is by no
means certain that Honolulu will get
the message, for 1t is expected that II ::
P. Baldwin, c. B. Wells and others Of
Maui, will be bidders.
