ROOSEVELT IN NEW YORK. This Morning He Will Go to Oyster
 Bay to Vote.

New York. Nov. <.-President and Mrs. Roosevelt and party arrived in New York at 6:20 o'clock tonight. The party re- mained in New York over night and to- morrow will be taken to Oyster Bay, l.. l., where the President will cast his vote. He will have scarcely more than an hour in Oyster Bay and will return to Wash ington. Owing to the care with which the exact itinerary of the trip was guard ed from the public, there were but few persons along the line awaiting the President until Newark was reached. There a crowd pressed the depot gates.
 The only outward incident of the jour ney was the delay due to a freight wreck at Claymont, Del, which made it neces- sary to shift the train to the Baltimore and Ohio tracks, when 1t ran as far as West Philadelphia. AS the train lay in the yards for some minutes the Presi- dent stepped to the platform and smiling ly greeted a group of railroad employees who climbed on the platform and shook hands with him. He told them that he was glad to see their interest in politics, as evidenced by the municipal campaign buttons they wore.
 When the train pulled into Jersey City depot "a big crowd had gathered and number of secret service men, detectives and newspaper men followed the party to the ferryboat, where carriages were wait ing.
 Arrived at New York the President and party were driven to the residence of the Presidents aunt, Mrs. James H. Roose- welt,

Just twenty days ago he left his home at Oak Level to go to Pied mont to have some checks cashed. After an absence of ten days. his brother got uneasy about him. He visited all the nearby towns in search of him, but could not find any clue. The neighbors then began to suspect foul play, and last Saturday about 150 men started out to search for the body
 They formed line about one mile wide, and started out About 12 o'clock some one detected an awful stench and called for others. They found the dead body in a most horribly mutilated condi- ton, the head being cut off entirely and his skull burst from the nose to the base of his head. Part of the face was entirely gone. 7.
 His pockets were turned wrong-side out and his money and checks were gone. He Is supposed to have had $200 on his person when he was killed. He was found on one of the most toughest cliffs of rocks and the body was partly covered up with rocks.
 The coroner's jury began an investiga- tion and held Wright Knighten and Mol ley Mccormick for the crime. They are now in jail at this place. but they refuse to talk The evidence against them is circumstantial. but the solicitor and sher- if are on the ground and will make a thorough and searching investigation.
 The excitement in the community is very high.

The Defendant Testifies in His Own
 Behalf.

Omaha. Neb., Nov. 4.-In the Callahan trial today Judge Keyser sustained the obiection to the introduction of the in- structions to the jury and its verdict in tbe former trial and the defense called SaIIahan to the stand. The prisoner was nervoi,s and became restless as the ques- tior,ng nroceedad. He denied that he was in inc vicinity of the place where the nidnanning occurred during the day of Denember IA and declared he spent most of Inc day at the home of his sister and

CARTER MADE ANSWER
DEMURRER TO BILL OF THE
 UNITED STATES.
Claims That the Govern ment Has Made No Case That Entities It to an Equity
 or Relief.

Savannah, Ga, Nov. 4-In the United States Court today, answers and demuy- rers were filed by the defendants in the case of the United States vs. Oberiin M. Carter and others. This Is the case In which the government has proceeded to hold up certain securities and other prop erty held in the name of Oberlin M. Car ter or those closely associated with him.
 Ex-Captain Carter, Lorenzo D. Carter and Stanton l. Carter filed demurrers alike. The affidavit of ex-Captain Carter Is dated at Leavenworth, kas.' october 20
 It is contended that the government has made no case that entities to an equity or relief. and that the bill con- tains no matter of equity whereon the court can grant decree or give any re- lief
 1t appears upon the face of the bill, says the answer, that there Is another suit pending for the same matter between the same parties. The discovery sought in the bill is in aid of a criminal suit. and not in aid of suit or civil nature. There are several causes in the bill and If the complainant Is entitled to relief 1t should have sued at law upon the sev- eraI causes. The defendant therefore de- murs to the bill and asks the Judgment of the court whether he shall be compeli- ed to make further answer and prays to be dismissed with his costs and charges most Wrongfully sustained.
 The answer of the Edison Electric H. luminating Company shows that on its books. when it was the Brush Electric Light Company, Oberlin M. Cartor ap- peared as the owner of fifty shares of its capital stock six shares of which were transferred to him June g. 1895, six shares June 29, 1885. fifteen shares June 9, 1895, and twenty three shares October 5, 1895, all of which were transferred by Carter January 2. 1899, since which date no stock has been owned by Carter to the defendants knowledge. That except as stated. the defendant Is a stranger to all the matters and things in the plaintiff bill. The defendant denies all manner of unlawful combinations and confederacy wherewith it is by the bill of the com pIainant charged
 The answer of the Savannah Brewing Company shows that on June 1, 1894, there was issued to Carter certificate No. 431 for twelve shares of its capital stock. and June a, 1895, certificate No. 467 was is sued to him for thirteen shares. The stock is still in the name of Oberlin M. Carter on the company's books. The rest of the answer is similar to that of the Edison Electric Company.
 All of the above answers and demurrer5 were fled bv Walter G. Charlton, attor- nev for the defendants.

 "The cost of the war In South Africa is enormous" said Sir Michael. Tt still drags It may be. when next year comes, that I may have to ask the people of this country to bear even greater burdens and to make even greater sacrifices"

MISSISSIPPI.

Jackson, Miss, Nov. 4.-On the eve of the special election involving the offices of State Treasurer and Secretary of State, there is absolutely no excitement, and little interest existing The cam paign has been short and conducted chiefly by correspondence, the mails hay ing been flooded for the last thirty days with circulars. The two candidates resid- ing in Jackson have not been out of the town, and others have made but few speeches.
 The candidates do not expect that a half vote will be boiled at some precincts, and 1t Is said that no election will be held at many places. The weather is all that could be desired, being clear and cold with indications of frost tomorrow.

COLORADO.

Denver. Col. Nov. 4.-Both the Demo- cratic and eRpublican party leaders to- night express confidence in tomorrow's election. The Democrats control several of the county offices. The sheriff, how ever, supports the Republican ticket, and It Is asserted that he will appoint a large number of deputies for duty at the polls. while. on the other hand, the fire and police board, composed of Democrats, Is charged with appointing large force of special policemen to counteract the action of the sheriff. Two years ago a collision occurred between the police and deputy sheriffs in which several men were killed and wounded. and similar trouble is ex- pected this year if the same tactics are followed.
 The election throughout the State in- cludes only county officers.

DISMISSED BY PARDEE.
An Important Decision by Judge of
 United States Circuit Court.

United States Circuit Court.
 Macon, Ga, Nov 4.-Judge Pardee of the United States Circuit Court has dis missed the intervention of Robert M. Farrar ct al. in case of the Central Rail- road and Banking Company of Georgia vs Farmers Loan and Trust Company.
 Interveners claimed misapplication of $S6O 900 repived in settlement of rental claims held by. Southwestern Railroad stockholders against the Central Railroad Company The court holds that the Central had no control of the disposition of the funds, and is theerfore not properly a defendant. It also holds that the inter- vention is impossible as against the Southwestern because interveners have been receiving dividends from the com pany's use of the funds. which was a ratification of all that was done by the company.
