REPAIRING THE CAPITOL
WORK AT A sTANDSTILL WAITING,
FOR IRON.
Difficult Problems to Solve IN Roofing
statuary HaIl-Dilapidated In
terror of the House.

The vast amount OF remodeling and re-
pair work planned for the Capitol during
the present recess OF Congress is practf-
cally at standstfll at the present time
owing to the delay In getting the iron
work
There are two iron roofs to be con-
structed. one over statuary Hall and one
over the Supreme Court chamber, while
iron is to be used largely in the work in
the hall Of the House.
The House wing Of the Capitol presents
a very dilapidated interior. at the present
time. The only work that has been done
Is the tearing out Of the floor in both gal
lery and hall. The seats and desks of
members are piled up in the basement
BARBER Shops Vacated.
The republican and democratic barber
shops had been forced to yacate the cloak
rooms on their respective sides. and are
doing business in the committee rooms
on naval and military affairs, respectively.
The new committee rooms constructed
out Of the library rooms are receiving in
terror decorations.
Perhaps the most difficult architectural
feat to be accomplished is the re-roofing of
the Supreme Court chamber and Statuary
Hail The reQutr ernent is that the ceilings
of these historic chambers shall be repro
duced In appearance, and the further re-
qufrement made that the many and varied
echoes of Statuary Hall shall also be pre-
served. The whispering gallery" as this
one-time famous hall of state is generally
Known is one Of the traditional attractions
to visitors, as Well as one of the chief
sources OF income to Capitol guides. To
learn which stones to stand on to get the
echoes in this hall is part of the initiation
Of every congressman. and all were en-
phatc in declaring that in the re-roofng
process the echo should not be disturbed.
Whether this can be done cannot be def
nitely predicted. and remains to be ascer-
tanned.

PITTSBURG. Pa, July 6.-The special

Steel Hoop companies reached Pittsburg
from New York about o'clock this morn

merged into the Carnegie Company, will
take up their headquarters In the Carnegie

York was made without incident.
Considerable interest is manifested in
manufacturing and labor circles as to the

1t was one of the individual constituents Of
the great steel combine in which 1t has now
lost its identity President T. ]. ShaTer of
the Amalgamated Association thinks. how
ever, that the change will not prove iniI:Ii-

managers and the like. for the two com

The operating departments. 1t is with the
operating departments. the managers that
the Amaigamated people deal. Presidents
and treasurers do not bother with labor
disputes There might also be changes In
the operating departments of these COM

the attitude of the companies on the labor

Ar THEIR HOME IN CANTON
PRESIDENT AND MRS. MCKINLEY
REACH THERE SAFELY.
Mrs. Mckinley Stood the Journey Very
WeIl-No Demonstration at
Station.

CANTON, Ohio, July 6.-The train bear
ing the presidential party arrived here at
10:15 this morning. Mrs Mckinley stood
the journey very well.
Owing to Mrs. McKinley's illness there
was no formal demonstration at the sta
ton upon the arrival Of the train, 1t being
feared that the noise and confusion Incl
dent upon such a reception would have an
unfavorable effect upon the patient.
There was, however, a very large crowd
present that completely filled the station
platform. When the President and Mrs.
Mckinley stepped from the train hearty
cheer of welcome went up. In accordance
with the wishes of the President to make
the homecoming as quiet as possible none
of the reception committee that have here
tofore welcomed the President were pres
ent organizations, but were there as
individuals.
The Presidents carriage arrived from
Washington several days ago, and In it
the Chief Executive and Mrs. Mckinley
were driven to their old home. For sew
eral days past servants have been busily
engaged in preparing the house for the
comfort Of the President and Mrs. Nc
kinley.
1t was said by members of the Presi-
dents party that Mrs. Mckinley had stood
the trip exceedingly we'll and that her con-
dition continued favorable.

and were mustered out. despite the fact
that charges had been made against them
by citizens in the neighborhood Of their
sta>.ons In the Philippines. 1t was assert
ed in the af1davits now being considered
by the judge advocate general that the Of
ficers had engaged in unlawful commerce
with natives for the purpose Of controlling
the prices Of certain products and that the
possession Of steamers was obtained by the
officers under questionable methods, which
involved the use Of their official positions
and influence, for their personal profit In
considering the cases it has been found
necessary to call for additional information
from Manila. 1t is said that the charges
involved the civil administration more than
the military, and IL it shall be shown there
is occasion for further action the matter
Will be turned over to the Department of
Justice. The War Department has refused
to have anything further to do with the

Former German Chancellor Passes
Away at Ragatz, Switzerland.
HIS DEATH WAS UNEXPECTED
During His Official Life He Was
Friendly to America.
INCIDENTS OF HIS CAREER

BERLIN. July 6.-Prince Won Hohenlohe.
formerly German imperial chancellor, died
at Ragatz Switzerland, last evening.
Prince Won Hohenlohes death was gen.
orally unexpected here. as he left Berlin
several weeks ago apparently in good
health. although his increasing weakness
was evident The prince arrived at Ragatz
extremely exhausted His death Is at
tributed to the weakness of old age. Inc
arrangements for the transportation OF the
body to Germany and for the Obsequies are
not vet definitely determined upon. but 1t
is expected that the remains will be con
veyed To the Hohenlohe ancestral home at
SchHlingsfuerst, Batavia. where the family
vault is situated and where the body of
Prince Won Hohenlohes wife is inferred.
1t is also expected that Chancellor Won
Beulow will break his seaside rest and at
tend the funeral.
Although Emperor William has fixed his
departure on his trip TO Norway for Mon
day next 1t is deemed likely that ms
ma teSty Will once more postpone the ualS
of his starting his trip in order to en-
able him to attend the Obsequies- owing
to Emperor Williams relationship to Prince
Won Hohenlohe his majesty always called
the prince Uncle Chlodwig-"
Remains to Go to schiIIingsfnerst.
1t IS not believed here that the body of
Prince Won Hohenlohe will be brought to
Berlin before beng taken to Schillings-
fuerst.
The officials of the United States en-
bassy informed the correspondent of the
Associated Press that the death OF the for
mer chancellor was much regretted, be-
cause of his uniform kindliness toward
Americans and American interests.
Prince Won HOhenlohe's attitude through
his chancelIorship was always fair and con-
CtliatOTy in regard to German-American re-
lations- Although he was an extensive es-
tate owner. he did not share the agrarian
hostility toward the United States. 1t was
certainly owing in large measure TO
Prince Won HOhenlOhe's friendly spirit dur
ing several trying years that Germany's re-
lationS with the United States never de-
parted from cOrdlality. He received many
Americans and was always friendly to
them At the time of the death of United
States Ambassador Theodore B. Runyan in
1~:Hi. which occurred in the middle of the
night, Secretary Jackson went early in the
morning to inform the cabinet ministers of
the ambassadors demise, but only found
Prince Won Hohenlohe ready to receive him

THAT HER TESTIMONY WAS FALSE.
Says She Was COerced by Her Step
mother-The Attorney Gem
erals IndOrsement.

Just before leaving yesterday the Presi-
dent signed the pardon Of Max w. Falk,
who was convicted in this city Of adultery
after a most sensational trial. Falk kept
a candy store on 11th street northwest be-
tween E and F, and the person who Sc
cured his conviction was Minnie H. David
son, a seventeen-year-old girl She claimed
that Falk induced her to remain several
days in the rear OF his store with him.
Falk was convicted on May 16. 1899, and
sentenced to six months Imprisonment in
the West Virginia penitentiary at Mounds
Vile. He took the case through the Court
Of Appeals and the Supreme Court Of the
United States, where he was unsuccessful
in having the case reversed, and was COM
mitted to the penitentiary, May Z, 1901.
An application for his pardon was recently
filed, accompanied by an affidavit by Min
ME H. Davidson to the effect that her tes-
timony on the trial was false. and that
she was coerced into making 1t by her step
mother. o.
The Attorney General made the following
Endorsement:
Petitioner has served two months Of a
six months sentence for adultery. The
prosecuting witness files an affidavit stat
ing that her testimony at the trial was
false. and that the petitioner is not guilty
of the charge. The district attorney rec
ommends a pardon Petitioners wife be-
lieves him guiltless. AS the matter now
stands all the parties interested agree upon
his innocence, and l therefore recommend
that he be pardoned."
In her affidavit the Dawson girl states
that her stepmother YVES very cruel to her,
and forced her. by threats, to make the
charge against Fak. She says that after
land and told him all the facts, and that
under his advice she makes the affidavit.
