HIS L0RDsH|P GUILTY
Russell Gets Three Months fol-
Being Too Muchly
Married.

London, July 1S-Earl Russell, ar
raigned at the bar of the house of
lords today for trial on the charge
of bigamy, pleaded guilty, after long
arguments against the jurisdiction of
the court.
The trial was carried on with all
the quaint m~iddle-age ceremonies.
The arguments lasted an hour. Both
the earl and countess Russell (Mrs.
Somerville) through their counsel
pleaded they did not know they were
doing wrong, but had acted on best
legal advice obtainable in Nevada.
The peers reached their decision
after a consideration of the case, last
ing 20 minutes. Earl Russell was
sentenced to three months imprison-
ment as a first class misdemeanant.
In anticipation of the arrival of
Lord Russell, the official of HOLLYWOOD
prison has prepared for his reception

TEST THEIR HUMANITY
Peculiar Appeal That Will Be
Made to Epworth
Leaguers.

Kansas City, July 1S-Epworth
leaguers all over the country will be
appealed to to furnish enough cuticle
for grating over the burns of two
victims of the recent Chicago & AL
ton wreck.
Today is was announced that the
burns of Julia NJ. Hayslip, the "a
year old daughter of a wealthy Che
noa, Ills, farmer, had not responded
to treatment as expected and that to
save her from carrying a hideous
scar all her life, new skin must be
grated. Yesterday it was stated a
similar effort would be necessary in
the case of Miss lola Harry, Is years
old, of Hoopstown, Ills.
Miss Hayslip and Miss Harry were
on their way to San Francisco to at
tend the national convention Of the
Epworth league, when they were
caught in the wreck near Norton, Mo-,
and scalded SO badly that their lives
were despaired of for several days.
The operations of grating must be
performed within a week, and it has
been decided to appeal to the lea
ready deserted to join their trades
Kansas City from the Pacific coast
that they furnish the required cuticle.

Robert Stuart Fosburgh Finally Must Answer Long
Pending Charge Of Murder-Sonewhat
Noted Case.

the part of her brother or during the
excitement Of a family quarrel he is
guilty, said the lawyer. The govern
ment will show, he stated, that there
were no intruders in the house that
night. The night dress of Fosburgh's
wife was torn straight down the front
and the hem ripped. The furniture
was broken and smashed in two
rooms. The castors on the older Mr..
Fosburgh's bed were broken. A lamp
was overturned and a mirror and
screen in the kitchen bed room mis-
placed.
The district attorney said the de-
PENDANT had told a different story
daily and that he had shown nail
holes for bullet holes. It would be
shown that May Fosburgh was shot
by the 22-calibre center fire revolver
owned by the defendant and that the
revolver was held not nor than one
foot from her body as her night dress
was burned and blackened with pow
der. The government. he said, need
not and will not 60 into the question
of motive, as all 1t has to show Is
who fired the shot.

house and grounds.

the American government, although
he added that the general disposition
of the Russians is to welcome Ameri-
can products.
The primary object of the journey
was the creation of trade conditions
in the Orient by which the Great
Northern might become the benefici-
airy, this being one of the favorite EN-
terprises of the railway in question,
through it's Japanese steamship con
nections. Hill asserts that there is
an ever-growing and thriving trade
between the Pacific coast and the
Orient, which has received a check,
owing to the action of our government
with Russia, but which is replete with
incalculable opportunities if taken ad-
vantage of.
Mr.. Hill raj accompanied to Seat
tie by Robert Lebaudy of Paris, Gas
ton Steigler of LIE Matin, Paris, and
General Won Kettler of the German
army.

BRYAN WOULD NOT LISTEN
Proclamation the Filipino Was
Willing to Make to Help
His Friend.

Lincoln. July 18-In a statement
for the press today w. J. Bryan gives
his version Of the story that Aguinal-
do promised him financial assistance
in his campaign Of a year ago. Mr..
Bryan says it was while he was in
New York that two Filipinos sent a
request to confer with him. He de-
clined to meet them and sent a friend
to explain that he did not think it
proper to hold a conference. The
Filipinos said that Aguinaldo was
willing to issue a proclamation, prom
Using to lay down arms in case Of Mr..
Bryan's election and also that he was
willing to contribute to his campaign
fund but Mr.. Bryan refused to consid-
er either offer and did not require
them to furnish any evidence OF their
right to represent Aguinaldo..

IMPORTANT CORRESPONDENCE
CAPTURED.
STEIN REMAINS HOPEFUL
Other Leaders Weakening and
Believe Time Has Come to
Surrender.

London, July 1S-The wal Office is
sued late tonight a dispatch from Lord
Kitchener, giving the correspondence
between Mr.. Reitz and Mr.. Steyn,
that was captured with the latter's
baggage near Lindley July II.
Reitz, under date of May l, wrote
Steyn that a meeting of the Transvaal
government had been held, attended
by General Botha, General Valjoen
and Mr.. Desmutz, to consider the sit
uation. He went on to catalogue the
failing responsibility on government,
rapidly decreasing supply of ammuni-
ton, di%sintegration of government
and lack of any definite assurance Of
European Intervention.
"In view of these facts" he said,
"the government has decided to ad-
dress a message to President Kruger,
pointing out the terrible condition.
The time has passed for us to let
matters drift as at present. We must
take the final STEP"
Steyn replying May Is, upbraids
Reitz with weakness, saying:
There is still plenty of ammuni-
ton to continue the struggle. You
ask what prospect there is of a sue
cessful termination. ask what
chance there was for two small re-
publics when they declared war
against the mighty power of Great
Britain. Then we trusted in God and
in European intervention. What rea-
son is there now to place less trust
in God?
81 have seen recent European news
papers and I firmly believe complica-
tions will arise in a few months which
will be to our good fortune"
Steyn also says that the fact that
Kruger and the Boer delegates re-
main in Europe convinces him that
they consider the cause still hopeful.
