FIFTEEN aPROMISENT" WOMEN DE-
MOLISH SALOONS AND DRUG
STORES OF PERRY.
FIRE HOSE WAS EFFECTIVE.
EMPORIA JOINT KEEPERS GIVEN A
SCARE BY A WAGGISH
JOKER.

PERRY, Kas., February 16.-Fifteen
prominent women, led by the wives Of
a Methodist minister and a ibank CASH
Ter, raided several "joints" here last
night. With hatchets and axes they
demolished fixtures right and left, en-
failing a loss in that particular aione
of more than 81, 900.
Twenty whisky barrels and sixty
two kegs and twenty cases of beer
were carried into the streets, where
they were chopped into kindling wood
and their contents flowed away in the
cutters.
A drug store was the last place Wis
tied. The proprietor was accused OF
quenching the thirst of local inebriates
and his stock was quickly destroyed.
In striking at the shelves with her
hatchet one of the women accidentally
struck a bottle of carbolic acid. The
deadly fluid despatched her clothing
and hands, burning her quite severely.

EI-k|AG Milan BURIED
BY GREAT GRANDMOTHER,
WHO FOUNDED THE DYNASTY, AND
DIED NEARLY A CENTURY
AGO.
BODY WAS WELL PRESERVED,
AND THE ROBES AND PEARL ORNA-
MENTS FOUND TO BE STILL
INTACT.

KARLOWITZ, Austria-Hungary, Feb
ruary 16.-Large crowds assembled
at the railroad station here this morn
ing awaiting the arrival of the remains
Of former King Milan or Servia. Fun
eral arches draped with black and fly
ing mourning flags were erected at the
entrance of the town, the principal
square and elsewhere.
Many houses were draped and the
patriarchial palace was p~rofusely dec
GRATED with emblems of mourning.
"A special train was in readiness at
the frontier town of Semlin to bring
any guests of Servia DESTROYS Of at
tending, but it is understood the au-
thorities at Belgrade were placing diff
iculties in their way.
Great trouble was experienced in car
rying out King Milan's wish to be
buried by the side of his great grand
mother, Ljubicza Cbranoyitch, wife OF
Milos, founder of the dynasty. The
whereabouts of the vault could not be
located until a certain ~centenarian was
discovered who had attended the fun
eral Of the Princess. When the vault
was opened it was found that the wood
en- coffin had fallen apart and that the
corpse was exposed. 1t was in a most
remarkable state Of preservation. The
features were quite recognizable and
the pearl ornaments and silk robes OF
the princess were intact.
The special train bearing the body OF
King Milan was received with military
honors. A detachment of infantry was
drawn up at the station and a band
played the Servia royal hymn.
The coffin was borne to the Metropoli-
tan church in a state hearse. There the
patriarch, assisted by many Of the clergy,
pronounced the benediction in the pres
ence of a large assemblage, the bells toll
ing during the
The coffin was carried to the Kruesche-
dial monastery where representatives
of thirteen monasteries were present.
The remains were buried beside those
of Princess Ljubicza. Prayers were re-
cited at the grave side.
Two hundred carriages followed the cof-
fir over the snow-clad mountain. 1t took
two and a half hours to drive from Kar-
lowitz to Kruschedal.

CRONE CONFESSED
70 CODAHY KIDNAPPING.
SOUGHT FOOD AM SHELTER AT
THE HOME OF Al IOWA
COUNTRY EDITOR
WHOSE LIFE HE ONCE SAVED
GROVE NEVER INTENDED TO HARM
THE CHILD, If MONEY WAS
NOT PAID.

CHICAGO. February 1s.-A dispatch
to the Times-Herald from Waterloo,
Ia, says:
Pat Grove confessed the Cuhahy
kidnapping to Isaiah Van Metre, the
editor of the Waterloo Weekly Tri-
bune, with whom the hunted fugitive
sought shelter and food Tuesday night
of this week, and Mr.. Van Metre pub
fishes the details of the visit in the
current number Of his paper.
Back of this, perhaps, the most dra-
matte episode OF the long series that
has grown out of the celebrated child
stealing case is a story of how Grove
saved the life of the editor a dozen
| years ago., so establishing the credit of
| gratitude upon which he felt safe in
drawing, now that he is an outcast with
| a price of $500 set upon his head.
The statement Of Grove to the Wat
erloo editor, according to the dispatch
4, to the Times-Herald, cover the follow
ing points:
IA frank confession of the kidnap-
ping.
Am explanation that he had no
! intention of harming young Cudahy
n would not have done so, eve had
the money not been delivered.
"a statement that he had $40, 600
planted which he wished to get in
order to be able to leave the country.
According to the Iowa EDITORS story
the man said to be Pat Grove came to
his home after II o'clock at night, was
admitted, was given food and was per-
mitted to sleep there until just before
daylight. The man, according to the
Iowa editor, was in a state of abject
fear, and seemed ali but hopeless of
avoiding the officers who are searching
for him. In this alleged confession the
fugitive is reported to have stated that
he could no longer trust those who had
been his friends, owing to the big re-
ward offered for his apprehension, and
that he knew not which way to turn.
The fugitive told the editor, the story
says, that the few hours sleep in the
latter's house was the first unbroken
rest that he had had for weeks. The
fugitive is reported as having explain
ed that his only object in remaining In
this vicinity was to secure his buried
treasure, and that SO great was his
fear of detection that he could not
come to the point of going after 1t.

TURNED HOSE ON THEM.


BEI4CIT, Kans., February 16.-There
was a free for all fight to-day arising
from the feeling over the joints. The
temperance men and women insisted
on inspecting the places to see that
their orders for closing had been o.
served. The mayor allowed three or
four to enter a joint at a time and sent
an officer to see that no damage was
done. The investigating committee
was followed by a large crowd. Soon
an alarm of fire was sounded, and a
hose cart dashed Up, and the iremen
commenced throwing water on the
crowd. Some men attempted to cut the
hose but were prevented by a display of
revolyers. After several had been
more or less hurt. some arrests were
made and quiet was restored.

PRESIDENT DETERMINED
70 Gall EXTRA SESSION.
ANNOUNCES HIS INTENTION TO SUM
MON CONGRESS UPON RE-
CEIPT
OF THE CUBAN CONSTITUTION
WILL PROBABLY LAST WELL INTO
THE SUMNER, AND CONSIDER
OTHER MATTERS.

WASHINGTON. February 1.-THE
President told Senators who called up
on him to-day that Congress would be
called in extra session as soon as the
Cuban constitution was received.
The President has seldom been known
to talk so freely with member of Con-
gress and other public men on any aues-
ton he had in contemplation as he now
talks with them concerning an extra ses-
sion of Congress. He has apparently been
revolving the subject In his own mind for
the past month, and for hat length of
time has talked more or less pointedly
with his callers. Senators and Represent
atives have. however, thought until with
in the past day or two tina. the extra
| session could be avoided. Even now there
are many who refuse to believe that the
call VIII be issued.
Those who have talked with the Presi-
dent in the past day or two are not of
this opinion. They say that he announced
definitely to-day his determination to ask
Congress to come together as soon after
the completion of the Cuban constitution
as might seem expedient. The only appar-
! ent object of the President is to nave the
CUBAN question: COHSluefSQ, anu IL Is HIS
| desire to have Congress share the respon-
sibility of deciding what steps shall be
| taken with reference to Cuba, regardless
| of the details of the constitution. He has
not as yet indicated a time when he
! should expect Congress TO meet, and this
he is not expected to do until the Cuban
constitutional convention shall complete
its work.
The prediction is general that in case an
extra session is called it will extend we'll
into the summer. 1t is not believed that
its deliberations could be confined to Gu
ba, but that the Philippine question, the
antitrust bill and the subsidy bill Of that
should fail to be disposed of at the pres
ent SESSION. would all come in for a share
Of attention. Many of the leading Repub-
lican Senators are using their utmost en-
beavers to avert the call.

USED TIME FUSES.

Chicago. Hotel Fires May Have Been
Burning Hours Before Discovery.
CHICAGO, February 16.-Four adj
ditional fires were discovered during
the early hours ofbto-day in the I'M
completed hotel Majestic, where a
number of small incendiary blazes were
discovered in closets, where shavings
and rubbish had been carefully arrang-
ed. With the finding of to-day's fires
came a elew. Trace Of time fuses were
discovered, of g construction that adj
mitted of their burning for hours with
out attracting attention, and it is as
serted that a q could have placed
and lighted these fuses and escaped
with hours to spare.

1t Causes nm Immense Amount of
Amusement Among ConEressmen
One OF the best stories about Sen

ton by Congressman Cochran, OF Mis-
souri,. Mr.. Cochran says that a color
ed orator made a speech at st. Joseph.
which ran in this way:
