st. Louis, April 12.-Henry Flutcher,
colored. was hanged at o'clock yes
terday morning.
Twenty minutes later a reprieve ar
rived from the governor in response to
a telegram from Circuit Attorney Folk.
The recommendation for stay was
that new evidence had been discovered
that might show the murder had been
committed in self-defense.
Flutcher shot and killed Louis Roth,
fourteen. white, Aug. II, 1900. The kill
ing grew out of q quarrel between
Flutcher and Roth's brother.
Attorney Folk telegral he'd to Gov.
Dockery at 11:45 asking for Il reprieve
of ten days. The Western Union SER
vice message was received in st. Louis
at o'clock yesterday morning. The

It is claimed here that the governor
attempted to reach the sheriff by long

MOI ming hours, but was unable to do
so. and the sheriff is criticised for
speeding the execution, knowing the
nature of the recent developments.
Flutcher walked to the gallows unas-

before the drop fell declared his inno-
ccnce, stating that if the truth had
been told on the witness stand he
would have bsen acquitted.

Washington. April S.-The house ye5-
terday passed the Chinese exclusion
bill after incorporating in it several
amendments which increased the dras-
tic character Of the measure The
principal one not only excludes Chinese
by birth and descent, but all Chinese
of mixed blood. The chief struggle
was over the amendment to prohibit
the employment of Chinese sailors on
American ships. An amendment cover
ing this proposition was at first ruled
out on point of order, but subsequent
~ was modified to evade the ruling and
was adopted-10O to "A. AS passed the
bill practically re-ens cts all the ex-
clusion laws and incorporates with
them the existing treaty regulations.
1t extends these exclusion laws to the
Philippines and the other possessions
of the United States, and forbids Chi
nese laEorers in our colonial posses
sions coming into this country The
Philippine commission, by the terms of
the bill, is directed to adopt proper
measures for the enforcement of the
provisions Of the bill in the Philippines.
The conference report on the war rev.
enue tax repeal bill was adopted and
the bill sent to the white house. Late
IN the afternoon Mr.. Fowler of New
Jersey moved to pass under suspension

quorum and the bill was passed.

Considerable time was consumed by
the senate yesterday in a discussion of

duce war revenue taxes. AS passed by
the senate the tax OH transactions IN

The conferees struck out that provis-
ion, it being explained that the house
would not consent to it's retention. Mr..

the retention of he tax. Mr.. Aldrich

that it could not be retained without

at $35, two lace scarfs and several dia-

boarding house seven years ago there
was woman. VINO, with her husband,
was a boarder there. against whom
suspicion was directed. She denied all
knowledge Of the thefts, though close
ly questioned by the police. The fact
that this woman was indeed the thief
has occasioned much surprise to the
few who recall! her presence in the city
so many years ago. Mrs. Castillo re-
members her distinctly, but does not
feel that the circumstances warrant
her making public the name.
The letter which came yesterday
morning with the missing articles
states that the woman detailed in her
confession how She was able to ward
off suspicion. AT the moment when the
accusation was ade the stolen goods
