PERFECT DEATH MASK
OF PRESIDENT MCKINLEY
Federal Government Will Place it on
Exhibition at the Smithsonian
Institution

BUFFALO, n. Y, Nov. 1S.-After two
months work a cast from the death
mask Of the late President Mckinley
done on the morning of his death, was I'm
ished to-day. The mask has been care
fully guarded, being kept in a safety de-
posit vault when not in the hands of Ed
ward Lapouch, an expert mask maker
from Hartford, Conn. The mask is the
property of the Federal Government Next
week it will be taken to Washington,
where for a time it will be shown to the
public at the Smithsonian Institution.
1t was the express order of the Govern
ment that no photograph of the mask
should be taken 1t is said to be one of
the most perfect ever taken Of a notable
person. The mask differs from those of
Napoleon or others in that, instead of
merely including the face, it portrays
practically the entire head. The plaster
itself weighs twenty-five pounds.

POCAHONTAS. Va, Nov. 1S.-The work
of removing fallen slate and debris from
the Baby mine continues. This morning
Fritz Moulter was found entombed in a
room on the west side. HeN was living,
but few hours more would no doubt
have brought death. For six hours ply
sicians worked over him before he was
restored to consciousness. He is yet fee
BILE but will likely recover There was
great rejoicing when the news spread that
he had been recovered alive. Moulter
says that all within the mine Thursday
night commented on the heaviness of the
atmosphere. and that a number OF the
men left their work ahead of him. He
soon found that danger was imminent and
along with several others started run
ming from the drift. A heavy report that
shook the mountain was heard. and an
instant later huge cloud of smoke and
flame was seen coming. He lost sight OF
his companions, but he turned into side
room as quickly as possible and was shut
off by falling slate Probably two days
passed before he succumbed to the foul

trict Of Columbia, will begin the trial Of
Mrs. Lola Ida Bonine, under indictment
for the murder of James Seymour Ayres
Jr, in the Kenmore Hotel In this city on
the night Of May Is last. The case at
tracted widespread interest at the time
the tragedy occurred, largely on account
Of the mystery that shrouded the death of
the young man, and this interest was
augmented while the Coroner's jury was
IN progress with the dramatic confession
Of Mrs. Bonine Of her part in the tragedy.
She told her story to the District Attor-
ney and to the local detectives, saying
that she had been the only person in the
room when Ayers was shot. and that he
was killed in a struggle with her over the
possession Of a revolver with which he
was trying to frighten her into compliance
with improper demands on his part. She
has been in Jail since then.
District Attorney Gould will be assisted
an the prosecution by Hugh T. Taggart.
Seventy-three witnesses have been sum-
moned on behalf of the Government. Thus
far no subpoenss have been issued for
any witnesses in Mrs. Bonine's behalf.

Signing Of Treaty Arouses Little In.
terest in London.

LONDON, Nov. 1S-Except as affordine
a chance for the opposition journals to
attack the Government and the Foreign
Secretary, Lord Lansdowne. the signing
of the new isthmian canal convention
does not excite strong interest in Great
Britain. 1t is generally admitted that the
British have nothing to gain by a reten-
ton of the Clayton -Bulwer treaty. wbile
they have much to gain by the construc-
tion of the canal.
The Morning Post congratulates botb
countries on the completion of the treaty.
and says it is glad that the convention of
1900 has been revised m accordance with
American wishes. The Daily Mail fears
that the signing may not terminate for
ever a troublesome dispute, and believes
Canada ought to receive some equivalent
for the concessions which probably have
been made.
The Daily Chronicle says: Lord Lans-
downe has surrendered everything with
out compensation. The Government has
climbed down from the position it had
deliberately chosen, and although the
disappearnce of the Clayton-Bulwer
treaty. will not cause much regret manv
people will sigh for the business Cabinet
which Lord Rosebery recently suggested. .
In conclusion the Daily Chronicle char
acterizes the new treaty as a "full ac-
ceptance by Great Britain of the Monroe
doctrine" and says:

Treaty Satisfies Senators.

Several Senators and representative
members of the Foreign Relations Com
mittee have seen the new treaty.
They are satisfied with it and
confident 1t will meet the ap-
proval Of the Senate and the country.
The forecasts that have been published
are in the main correct. There has been
no effort to write a new treaty, but to
put into compact form the provisions Of
the treaty of last year as amended by
the Senate. Great Britain would not ac-
cept the Senate amendments, but was not
opposed to negotiating new treaty
which would provide for substantially
the same things.
The substance of the new convention is
that the old Clayton-Bulwer treaty is
superseded by one that provides an 18TH
mian canal, constructed under the
auspices of the United States Govern
ment. either directly at its own cost or
in other ways, and this Government en-
joys all rights incident to such construc-
ton, as well as the exclusive right Of
providing for the regulation and manage
ment of the canal. This Government
alone shall guarantee the neutrality of
the canal and the rules incorporated in
the treaty of last year are SO modified
as to conform to such guarantee. Other

Her health has been somewhat affected
by her continuous confinement and hard
fare, but she expresses herself as still

A letter to Mr.. Dickinson, diplomatic
agent Of the United States at Sofia, re-
plying to his proposals concerning ran
som, says the brigands will hold out for
a figure very much above the sum at Mr..
Dickinson's command. The brigands also
demand immunity from prosecution, but
it is impossible for The diplomatic agent
of the United States here to have power
to bind the Governments of Bulgaria and
Turkey. This point, however, is not likely
to be a serious obstacle in the way of ne
gotiations.

America May Fortify Canal.
The prohibition of fortifications does not
appear in the new treaty. There is no
mention of Notifications, but the United
States is conceded the right to protect
the canal.
These are substantially the principal
provisions of the new treaty Secretary
Hay and Lord Pauncefote have endeav-
ored to write a treaty that would en-
body all that was in their foxcser treaty
after it was amended by the Senate and
make the whole diplomatic agreement
between the two great English-speaking
powers. They have smoothed out some
of the expressions of the Senate amend
ments to make them harmonize with the
body Of the treaty, or to write conven-
ton that will present the same conditions
and remove all friction.
Senators who have read the new treaty
are satisfied that it meets all the objec-
tions raised against the treaty of last

the Senate to hesitate in ratification.

designed to help. The plain intimation
was made that the President regarded
these opportunities as annoying. and the
announcement was made that nothing
would count but the records Of the men
under consideration.
Some of the Senators who did not be-
lieve that the views of the President had
been represented accurately, determined
to make test. They called and urged
the claims of friends for vacant and COW
eted promotions to brigadier generalships.
The President instantly told them that it
was useless for them to make any rec
concentrations, because he would go by
the merit record. and should any Senator
or Representative urge the claims Of any
particular candidate it would injure his
chances for consideration The state
ment was made so emphatically that the
Senators have felt indignant and are do
ing much talking to the effect that the
President is infringing on the rights Of
the Senate, because appointments are to
be made ''by and with the advice of Sen
ators.''
The position Of the President and Secre-
tary Root is that all army officers should
be taken out of politics. and the way to
do it is to adhere strictly to the records
in making promotions In other words
the President is determined that the rule
of favoritism in the army shall cease and
officers deserving of promotion shall not
be denied because some one else less de-
serving has the influence Of a few SEN
ators.
Stories Of a Senatorial combination to
"hold up all of the Presidents nominal
tions until he recedes from his present
stand are already heard, and no one
doubts that the early part of the session
will see an attempted revolt against the
President like that which made Mr.
Cleveland's second term memorable.
