PRAY FOR COLD WEATHER
For Chicago Ice Combine Will Nearly
Double fheir Price to Poor
Consumers.
(By Associated Press.

Chicago, May lice dealers who con-
troll the business are now considering
plans to Increase the price from 80 to 10
per cent. The proposed increase it is as
serted, Will mean a summer of suffering
in the poorest dis stricts of the city. Resi-
dents at Hull House and the various uni
versity settlements insist that if rates
which controlled last year are raised,
thousands will have to do without ice.
The Wisconsin state Legislature and the
SHOWS of last winter are held to be the
factors which may be responsible for
heavier tribute being eXacted from Chi
cago by the companies yhich supply the
city's icee. In the general assembly of
the northern state bill is pending, pro-
viding a tax Of ten cents ton on ice ex-
ported from that state. This extra tax,
ice dealers frankly assert, must be paid
by the consumers ii the law makers Of
the adger state see fit to impose it. The
cost of removing the snow in order to get
the ice and the scarcity of the labor and
the cost of harvesting are held to be other
factors for the increase.

CALLAHAN HOPES TO GO FREE
Sharp Legal Move of the Alleged Kid

Liberty.
(By Associated Press.)

Omaha, Neb., May 1.-James Calla-
han, in Judge Bakers court this morn
ing, was permitted to withdraw his plea
of not guilty to the charges Of grand
larceny, robbery and false imprisonment
in the Cudahy kidnapping case and to
enter a plea at bar, that, having been
acquitted last week on trial for highway
robbery of Cudahy, he could not be put
in jeopardy again for that affair. When
the trial is called, If at all, on these three
remaining charges, the plea at bar will
be passed upon.
The state will probably file charges
of perjury committed in last weeks

is II years.
General Gown believes that the plea
at bar will effectually stay any trial
on the three charges in connection with
the abduction to which 1t is set up. q,

Pekin, Tuesday April 3O.-Field Marshal
Won Waldersee, in the letter which he
sent to the ministers today as the reply
Of the generals to the views Of the min
listers regarding the military questions
discussed by the generals in conference
says the garrison Of 5000 should be left at
Tien Tsin and the adjoining district,
Great Britain, France, Germany and
Japan to contribute 400 men each and
Italy 400 men. To garrison Shan Han
kwan, France, Great Britain. Russia and
Germany are to contribute 300 men each
and Italy one company until the forts
are razed. So long as any of the forces
occupy Chinese territory, these military
commanders must exercise the full au-
thority Of a civil administration accord
ing to the principles of The Hague meet
ing of 1899. The Chinese may remain In
office. as in the case of Pao Ting Flu and
partly at Tien Tsin.
Besides the 5000 in the Tien Tsin dis
trict warships, which must always be in
the Peiho, will preserve communication
with the International fleet at Taku.
To allow this administration to depend
in any respect on the mandarins would be
an utter impossibility. Frictions would

avoided. The placing Of the civil admin
istration under the n litary has fur
ther great advantage. 1t would be in
convenient to the Chinese government
which would therefore endeavor to get
rid -of it speedily by the settlement of
peace conditions.
When the troops at Tien Tsin are re-
duced to 1000 by the granting of possibly
a quarter Of the concessions then the
question Of an absolute Chinese admins
tratiOn may be considered.
The creation Of chief command is de-
sirable for purely military reasons, as
in cases Of disorder or troubles of any
kind, military measures would be requr
ed. These measures must take place
where troubles occur and the authority
Of the command in chief must also extend
to the legation guards at Pekin.

Immediately call upon the Venezuelan
minister for foreign affairs and apprise
him of the fact that the policy of the
United States in questions pending is

drawal of Minister Loomis.
Smooth Things Over.
Diplomatic relations are considered
ample at this time, especially in view
of the action of the Venezuelan govern
ment in expressing regret to Mr.. Russell
for the arrest of IgnaciO H. BaiZ, con-
sular agent in Barcelona. By it's ex
preston of regret, the Venezuelan gov
ernment has shown desire to remove
all irritation from the relations exist
ing between it and the United States.
DR.. Vincente Mijares, the editor of the
Republican. Venezuelan organ that
defended the New York and Bermu-
dez company, has been arrested at Cara
cas- by order of President Castro. This
arrest has caused a sensa ation in Cara
cas- where DR.. Mijares is held in the
highest esteem.
Shiploads of Arms.
The new Venezuelan constitution
came into force April 10. At present
the republic is tranquil but the govern
ment officials evidently fear trouble, as
they continue unremittingly to purchase
arms. A German ship which passed

million cartridges on board.

Washington. May 1.-Evidence that the
Philippine trouble is rapidly drawing to
close, is evidenced by the fact that Arch
bishop Ireland is in Washington and has
had several interviews with Secretary
Rot. The distinguished prelate has sue
ceeded in keeping himself from the pub
lie view in his present visit TO Washing
ton, and this circumstance adds strength
to the belief at the capital that he has
come to confer with the authorities res
garding the treatment to be accorded to
the millions Of church property of which
the friars have been disuossessed by the
insurrectionists.
Will Settle it Soon
In the last month Judge1aft has sent
to Secretary Root many confidential COM
munications on this subject, containing
references to the subject which the Sec
retary is now considering. Archbishop
Ireland also is supposed to be prepared
to deal finally with the question for the
church, and it is therefore thought that
he and Secretary Root can soon arrive at
a decision satisfactory to all interests
involved. Their decision will probably be
communicated at an early date TO Judge
Taft for his guidance.

Woman Burned in Kansas.

Topeka, Kansas, June 27.-IIorri-
bly, burned and dying in intense
agony was the fate Of Mrs. w
Q. Carson, wife of Cowlcy
county farmer, because her husband
refused to deposit $4,000 in a place
named by unknown blackmailcrs.
The tragedy happened Saturday
night in an obscure settlement away
from postoilicc and telegraph sta
tions. Three weeks ago Carson,
who is wealthy, received an anony-
nous note demanding that he bury
$4,000 at the foot of telephone
pole by the roadside under penalty
of having his house burned. The
suggestion was ignored. One week
later another anonymous letter was
received, stating that if $1,000 was
not deposited within a week his
house would be burned and he would
be killed.
No attention was paid to the
second communication and on Satur-
day night, while Carson was absent
from home, the house was fired.
MIR. Dunn, ncighbor, attracted by
the flames, hurried over and found
Mrs. Carson horribly burned and
inscnsiblc, about ten feet from the
ruins. She was taken to his home
by Mr.. Dunn, where she rallied
enough to talk before dying. She
said when she discovered the fire
she rushed outside, but remembered
some valuable papers and a treasured
old violin and tried to save them.
From that moment her mind was q
blank until she awokc in the Dunn
home.
When Carson returned he OK
pressed great grief at the loss of his
violin and papers and remarked that
if his wife died he would go back to
Scotland, his native land.

there is not the slightest apparent

and have determined not to try tc
do anything with their cotton.
"I have advised some of them tc

have told me that they would do sc
and they will buy presses for pack

not do 80 bad after all. They vii
