Count Won BueIOw Urges Legislation

BERLIN, Jan. 9.-The imperial chancel-
lor, Count Won Buelow. in the lower house
of the Diet to-day, strongly supported the
claims for the protection of agriculture.
He said: II consider it the foremost duty
of the government TO effect reconciliation

others suffer, and especially that as long

PHILADELPHIA, Jan. 9.-The body Of
the Rev. Charles Rigel. of the Church of
the Presentation, Of Cheltenham, near this
city, was found in the hallway of a lodg-
ing house at No. 400 North Eighth street
last Saturday morning. He was not iden-
titled until Sunday night and great mystery
surrounded the case. The police are ex-
tremely reticent, and never admitted the
man was murdered. The inquest on the
body held last Monday was abruptly ad-
journed and it was announced by the
coroner that the clergyman had died OF
natural causes. This announcement, how
ever, was not generally believed as it
was known that the man had been robbed
and that the police had sent word to many
cities TO look out for certain persons whose
description they refused to give to the pub
lie. Father Rigel was buried to-day. Over
fifty priests attended the funeral, the serv-
ices being held at the church of which he
