the District of Columbia, will begin the
trial of Mrs. Lola Ida Henry Bonine, un-
der Indictment for the murder of James
Seymour Ayres, Jr., in the Kenmore Hotel
in this city on the night of May 18th
last.
The case attracted wideerread interest
at the time the tragedy occurred, largely
on account of the mystery which shrouded
the death of the young man, and this
interest was augmented while the coro-
ner's inquiry was in progress by the
dramatic confession of Mrs. Bonine of her
part in the tragedy. She told her story
to the District Attorney and to the local
detectives, saying that she had been the
only person in the room when Ayres was
shot and that he was killed in struggle
with her over the possession of revolver
with which he was trying to frighten her
into compliance with improper demands
on his part. She has been in Jail under
arrest snce then.

pace is incapable of accommodating COM

something, the whole subject might as

delegation had no particular interest in
any of the treaties, but thought. taken
altogether, that the French treaty more
nearly represented the best possibilities
in the way of reciprocity and that if it
could be ratified distinct victory woull

Senator CuIlom, after his interview
