Andrew Carnegie In Europe.

Southampton, March 22.-Andrew
Carnegie, who arrived from New York
on the American liner st. Louis at a
late hour Wednesday night, was inter-
viewed here today. Mr.. Carnegie ex-
pressed surprise that his donation for
the benefit of the New York libraries
had caused anything of a sensation.
Two of the many cablegrams received
upon his arrival at Southampton re-
ferred directly to recent gifts. One of
these cablegrams was from Mayor Van
Wyck, of New York, the other from the
workingmen of Pittsburg conveying
thanks for the recent large donations.
The cablegram from the workingmen
of Pittsburg evidently gave Mr.. Car
negie the greatest satisfaction. When
questioned in regard to his suggested
mayoralty candidacy. Mr.. Carnegie
pooh-poohed any aspirations in that
direction.
Mr.. Carnegie said he had no imme-
diate plans for donations to English in
stitutions.

Again an Inmate Of the PenitentIary
Annex.


Columbus, March 22.-David Winget
is again an inmate of the annex. He
has been received at the penitentiary
after having been convicted a second
time of the murder Of Frederick @.
Blancke at Sandusky, and is sentenced
to die in the electrocution chair on
June 20.
Winget's case has attracted attention
throughout the country. He killed
Blancke Sept. 25. 1899, practically dis
emboweling him. He was tried, con-
victed and sentenced to be electrocuted.
He was sent to the annex, but a mOye-
ment was instituted by which he Sc
cured a second trial. He was returned
to Sandusky from the annex last May.
The second trial, which ended at Sam
dusky last Saturday, resulted In another
verdict of murder in the first degree.
A singular incident of Wingets trials
is~that the attorney who defended him
in the first hearing was the judge who
presided at the second trial.
When received at the annex Winget
said he did not care to talk about his
case but he conversed entertainingly
of his record as q soldier. He was
member OF the Forty ninth and the
One Hundred and Fifty-flrst Indiana
regiments, and was also for time In
the gunboat service on the Mississippi
river, participating in the siege OF
Vicksburg. He made an excellent
record and this fact has enlisted to a
great extent the support of the old sol
diers in his behalf. 1t is understood
that the G.. A. r. will try to have his
sentence commuted to life imprison-
ment. 1t is claimed that veteran has
never been executed in Ohio.
