POWER IS WHAT Is WANTED.
New Cruisers Will Not Be Built For
Speed Alone.

Washington. Oct. 2S--Acting Secre-
tary Darling has settled the question
which has divided the naval construc-
ton board relative to the proposed
armored cruiser Tennessee by accept
ing the recommendation of the major
ity of the board, which is in favor Of
power instead of high speed. The de-
cision was influenced. perhaps, by Ad
miral Melville himself. who assured the
acting secretary that the majority
plans. though short in speed, would
give the government a most formida-
BILE and desirable Warship. Therefore,
by direction of Mr.. Darling. Judge Ad-
vocate General Lemly today sent out
advertisements calling for proposals
for the construction Of two armored
cruisers of the Tennessee class of about
1850 tons displacement, the bids TO be
opened Jan. 6, 1908.
The construction board now will per-
feet the plans for two small gunboats
to be advertised very soon.

PANAMA CANAL TREATY
Prompt Answer Has Been Made
by the State Department to
Colombian Note.

Washington, Oct. est was learned
today that a prompt answer had been
made by the state department TO the
latest Colombian note respecting the
Panama canal treaty which note was
transmitted to the department Monday.
It's nature was not diWulged. but the
presumption is that 1t deals almost
entirely with Colombia's representa-
tons regarding the sovereignty of the
isthmus. which the COlombians feel has
been seriously invaded by the acts of
Commander Mclean and Admiral
Casey in preventing the prompt move
ment of troops across the railroad. This
matter, as before stated. is now the
subject of negotiations between the Co
lOmbian government and Minister Hart
at Bogota. and an early adjustment is
looked for.
The state department is anxious that
a speedy settlement be reached in or
der TO facilitate the completion of the
Panama canal treaty. Mr.. COncha, the
Colombian minister, received ample
and specific Instructions empowering
him to proceed in this matter, which
has been retarded only by the contrO-
versy which has arisen regarding the
transit on the isthmus.

FOUL MURDER
IN MONTANA
Wealthy Rsnchman Found Shot
to Death in His Home.
HIS MOTHER ALSO KILLED
CRIME BELIEVED TO BE THE
WORK OF TRAIN RoBBER.

nUTTE. Mont, Oct 2S.-A Miner spe-
II cial from Bearmouth says James
Conn. a wealthy ranchman on
Willow creek. was found shot 10 death
in his home today. His mother lay
upon the floor with her skull crushed
in, and cannot live The murderer is
believed TO be the lone bandit who held
up the North Coast limited Friday
morning.
a member of a threshing crew on
land adjoining the ranch had occasion
to visit the Conn ranch, and when he
entered the farmhouse a terrible sight
presented itself On the floor, with the
brains Oozing from his head. lay James
Conn, dead, with a ragged bullet hole
through his temple. Near him lay his
mother, her head crushed in with a
blunt instrument. presumably the butt
of a revolver.
At the time of the hold-up Of the
Northern Pacific train bloodhounds
We're put upon the trail Of the robber
and the dogs followed il for several
miles in the direction of the Willow
creek district, but lost the scent. Those
familiar with the country decided at
the time of the robbery that in all
probability the outlaw would attempt
to escape that way, as the country is
such as to afford an excellent Opportu-
nifty to evade capture, being heavily
timbered.
The discovery of the crime was made
at o'clock this afternoon. and officers
are now at the scene Near the stable
the threshing men met a demented
woman, who had lived with the Conn
! family for some time. This woman
killed her husband about twenty years
/ ago, and it is suggested that perhaps
/ she committed the tragedy. The scene
! Of the crime is about thirty miles from
Bearmouth, remote from the wires, and
/ details are meagre.

OF the heaviest stockholders. II he

case of foul play. lie might have come
homeward bound after the cattle sale.
Familiar with the country he might
have gotten off the train at some point

Mounds station and Grand Junction
and ridden into Sunnyside or his ranch

When he killed Chapman he also took
a shot at a Mexican sheepherder in the
employ Of the latter. The sheepherder
is reported 10 be waiting an opportu-
nitv Of shooting Dilley, which report,
however. has on numerous occasions

Has the man met with foul play? Has
no gone 10 his home in either Texas or
the Indian territory. or has he been
killed on the range? This is the ques-
ton to be answered. Seven thousand
dollars would be no inducement for
him TO decamp. There is nothing
against him in the courts. He is worth
