WITH SAME PISTOL
Murderer of MoIlie Powell Kills
Himself in a Barn.

Kansas City, Mo. Sept. 25.-A special
to the Times from Rolla, Mo-, says.
j. S. Crosswell, an instructor in the
School of Mines and Metallurgy, who
shot and killed Miss Mollie Powell, be-
cause she refused to marry him. was
surrounded by a posse near here at
11:15 last night. Before he could be ta-
ken CrossweH shot himself, dying al
most instantly.
A large posse made up of citizens and
college students had searched for Cross
well without cessation for "a hours,
ransacking buildings and covering al
most every spot in the city. When
CrossweH was located he ran to an
other barn nearby and barricaded the
doors. just as the posse was about to
make an attack, the report of a pistol
shot was heard, and when the pursuers
broke into the barn they found the
murderer prone upon the floor. Cross
well had sent a bullet into his heart
from the revolver with which he had
shot Miss Powell.

the city. and there was no delay in
passing the cash over the counter for
the worthless piece of paper containing
the forged signature of the ST. Joe
banker, making it apparently worth its
face.
The swindler asked the lawyer the
amount of his fees for his services in
the case and received them without
murInur, for it was policy for the
swindler to make his escape quietly
and without the disturbance that
would have been aroused should he
have tried to escape the fees.
The Atchison lawyer is still waiting
for his fees. The note, to make every
thing look right, he left with the To-
peka lawyer for collection. and it lies
in that lawyers safe today. a worthless
piece of paper.
Pinkerton detectives began their op-
erations by inquiring at the National
Bank of St. Joseph if any certified
check had been issued by that bank.
They replied that they had issued one
for $1.50 to a Horton bank. The de-
tectives began to think they had dis
covered the swindler's method of get
ting Cashier Teale's signature. but a
hunt of the clue revealed a mistaken
conclusion. That check had been Sc
cured by the secretary of a lodge at
St Joseph to send to Horton and was
all straight. The signature was secured
in some other manner, and the clever
forger is no one knows where.

20 MILES OF FIRE
ConflagratiOn in Hawaii Has
Existed For Weeks.

Correspondence the Associated Press)
Honolulu, Sept IS, via San Fran
cisco, Cal, Sept. 25-The forest fire re-
ported in the Hamakua district weeks
ago is burning yet with increased fury
and threatens incalcuable damage to
the plantations and forests in its vicin-
ity. 1t has swept thousands of acres,
and at last reports it was driven by
strong winds and was threatening a
tract of between forty and fifty thou
sand acres of forest It has been pro-
posed to call out the National Guard
and set the soldiers at work on the
fire, which threatens to do such fearful
damage. The area burned is almost
wholly government land but cane fields
are threatened at some points. It is es-
timated that the fire - twenty miles
in length. Several sugar plantations
are suffering from lack of rain.
Stock has been removed to HilO to
prevent the animals dying from lack
OF water, and there has been a general
exodus of settlers from the district
since the unprecedented conditions de-
veloped.
1t is proposed to tap the Kohala
mountains, where billions of gallons of
water are going to waste. The cost of
the scheme will be between two and
three millions, but it is believed that
the enterprise would be a great sue
cess. 1t would make a large new area
fit for cane cultivation.

deck and Victoria Czolgosz, father and
brother and sister of Leon Czolgosz,
the assassin of President Mckinley,
were granted an interview with the
prisoner in the Erie county Jail today.
Assistant District Attorney Frederick
Haller nd Assistant superintendent of

structions of District Attorney Penny
throughout the interview.
No other person will be allowed to see
the prisoner until after the sentence Of
death is imposed tomorrow afternoon.
The interview between the assassin
and his father. brother and sister lasted
35 minutes but no information leading
to the implication of any one else in
an anarchist plot to kill the president
was given by the prisoner.
We learned nothing that we did not
know before said Assistant District
Attorney Haller at the conclusion of
the conference. He talked more than
he had at any previous time, but even
to his family he was not very commune
cative."
The family returned to Cleveland inn
mediately after the interview.

The General Assembly of the Pres

inaugurate great twentieth cen ntury
movement, which will most fifty begin
in city so peculiarly linked with the
early history and traditions of Ameri-
can Presbyterianism. 1t was in 1889
that the Rev. DIR. John Witherspoon,
one of the signers of the Declaration
of independence, and an honored name
in the Presbyterian Church, was elec-
ted Moderator of the first General AS
sembly held in Philadelphia. Alto
gether sixty -four General Assemblies
have been held in Philadelphia. The
question of Greed revision, however,
is the greatest question to come before
the assembly and there is certain to be
a most earnest debate on the report of
the committee of revision, which rec

The Wilmington San in speaking of
the anti-Addicks fight i'll Wilmington,
resulting in the abolishing of the office
of Collector for that port says:
ITO Delawareans who prize tn e
States relation to the Federal Union.
and who regard Statehood for Della
zEsre as one of the valuable inherit
ances coming to them from the days of
the Revolutions of '76, and who would
preserve the States position in the
Union as that of one of the thirteen
original States whose independence
was won from and acknowledged by
Great Britain, the proposition to make
this State an appendage of another
state is humiliating. Four years ago
enue in this city was abolished under
circumstances similar to those affect
ing the Custom House. In internal
revenue affairs, Delaware is depend
ent upon Maryland; latterly the Office
Of United States Survey in this city
has been discontinued, and now it is
proposed to abolish the office of Col
lector of Port and a Custom House
Shat dates from the earliest history of
the Republic discontinued-to have
deputy of the Collector of Port at Phil
adelphia controlling the affairs of this
port. On the same line of procedure
the post Office at this place may be
run as a sub-station of the Philadel-
postoffice; the United States District
Gs9Grt could be abolished and Della
ware included in the jurisdiction of
Maryland or Pennsylvania. If this
thing is to be started-it has been
started-who can say where it will
stop? In the Chester case the old
status has not yet been fully recov-
eped. That indicates that when such
changes have been made they remain.
In that case Delaware would never re-
gain the status of State Independent
and sovereign in ali things.
This is the danger Delaware is in
curing as the result of the Anti-Ad-
dicks bolt from the Republican party.
Fifteen or twenty so-called prominent
business men, with following of not
more than % per cent. of the Republi-
can vote of the State, are by a system

the State-the forcing

Delaware rights and privileges of
statehood which came to her in the
making of the original Union of

there being already two Democratic

aside from its being a model OF a news

than religious grounds, though it
urges the latter also. 1t protests
