WASHINGTON, d c.. March 31.-The
greensward back of the White house vas
alive today with swarms of children,
who. with baskets filled with brightly
colored eggs, entered with zest into the
sIlInI p, Easter Monday egg-rolling car
and overcast, but neither CONTINGENCY
seemed to affect the spirits of the young
Jewellers. The attendance was not con-
fined to children, for a great many older
persons were present, some keeping a
Watchful eye on the young ones, and
the others to see a pretty sight
The thrOng was thoroughly cosmopol-
itan. All sorts and conditions of chill
dren mingled freely in the fun. The
grounds were open from o'clock in the
morning until sunset. The Marine band
gave a concert at 4 o'clock and brought
70 close a thoroughly enjoyable day
for the younger generation.
The president and Mrs. Roosevelt and
their children, together with a number
Of friends, appeared on the portico of
the White house while the crowds were
on the grounds and the former was kept
busy acknowledging the many saIuta-
tons he received from the little ones
The party remained on the portico until
the gusts Of wind and threatened show
er drove the multitude to shelter.

UNITED STATES
IS CONGRESS PowERLEss /!
Prisoner Is Taken Before the Cuban
Supreme Court on Habeas Cor
pus in an Effort to Secure
Release on Bail.

WASHINGTON, D. c., March 31-The
Post tomorrow will say that Senator
Hanna proposes to introduce a bill which
will provide for the trial of Estes G. Rath-
bone, recently convicted in Cuba Of frauds
In connection with the Cuban postal
service, before a court in the United
States, under American law and American
methods. The senator says, the Post will
say, he believes in Rathbone's honesty
Notwithstanding his conviction and claims
that under our laws evidence not admis-
sible under the Cuban procedure will aid
Rathbone
Speaking of the call of Senator Hanna
on the president, and the formers request
for pardon for Rathbone the Post will
say:
Doubt as to Governments Powers
1T is quite likely, Of course. that some
consideration will be shown to Reeves,
who turned states evidence, and action
IN his case may be expected soon after
cen Woods return to Cuba. The at
ttude of the administration toward Rath-
bone and Nicely will, however, be firm
Gen. Wood has the power of pardon, If
he should choose to exercise it, but this
Is not regarded as probable 1t is said
to be extremely doubtful whether the
president has the right to set aside the
judgment of the Cuban court, for Cuba is
a foreign country, although under the
nominal protection of the United States
The same reasoning makes it extremely
improbable that congress would enact
law transferring the accused ex-officiaIs
to this country.

preme court Of it's order to arrest Rath-
bone had said that besides its reasons for
Rathbone's arrest and the denial of bail
in his case mentioned in the order. II had
private information that Rathbone wished
to escape. Senior Lazuilza expressed re-
gret that the audencia court was not
bound to make this declaration under
oath.
The fiscal Of the supreme court denied
that Rathbone had a right to bail and he
asked the court to fix his bail in 100000
II 1t decided to grant it. The court will
give its decision in this matter tomorrow.

STATE ASKS FOR A LIFE
IOWAN ON TRIAL AT WAVERLY
FOR Staying HIS WIFE
Said to Have Made Confession In
Jail at AIIison-First Theory Was
That the Woman Had Com
mitted Suicide.
Special to The Globe.

WAVERLY, Iowa, March H-Louis
Busse was placed on trial in the district
court here today for the murder of his
wife, June IS, 1901. The crime was one
of the most cold-blooded ever committed
within the borders of the state. Busse
lived with his wife six miles northwest Of
Allison. On the day in question he quar-
relied with her and in the scu1fle he struck
her on the head with a hammer, crushing
her skull. He dragged her into the house
and there cut her throat with his pocket
knife. He placed the body on a feather
bed saturated with kerosene and set fire
to it.
The theory at the time Of the discovery
was that the woman committed suicide
The suspicious were aroused by the
actions of the husband at the time of the
funeral, he showing no signs whatever
of grief. The body was exhumed and
then the discovery was made that the
skull had been crushed.
Busse was taken from the Jail at ALL
son and brought here, as it was feared a
lynching would take place, the feeling be-
ing very strong against him. While in
jail at Allison he is said to have made a
confesson. The state has summoned
thlrty-six witnesses and the defense
eighteen. Four attorneys will be identi-
fed with the prosecution and three with
the defense. 1t will be one of the hard
est fought battles ever waged in the state
criminal courts.

proval of the Central Labor union, and
with that to leave work on Thursday.
Every brewery in the city will be more
or less affected, and it is expected that
large number will have to shut down.
The men openly declare that the brewers.
by refusing to comply with the demands,
seek to break up the union, while the
brewers claim that the new schedule
which has been offered to the men is
perfectly fair ole, and that owing to IN
crease in the cost of material and the
decrease in profits they are unable to
offer any better terms.
The brewers demand the right to dis
charge any employees at their own discre-
ton, but at the same time agree not to
employ any but union men. The men, on
their part, demand that before a man is

change has come over Senator Chauncey
NJ Depew. The gay and blithesome is no
more. Once, not many months ago he
carried on his face a constant smile. 1t
was like a ray of sunshine when he came
into the room; and he used to bubble over
with good spirits. If it was assumed the
role was well sustained; but 1t did not
appear assumed. He went everywhere,
and he had funny story for anybody
who would listen. Even in pantomime he
was entertaining and people in the senate
galleries or elsewhere, out Of range of
his voice, would watch him work up to
the point Of his tale, and then he would
throw back his head, open his jaws like
great nut-cracker,- and shake all over
in hearty silent laughter.
But that was four months ago. Some
thing has come over the spirit of Chaun-
cey's dreams, and they are no longer
roseate or mirth inspiring He looks five
years older. He is as solemn as a mute
in funeral parade. mere are no more
little quips or wanton wiles- He is Il
penseroso. The worm is gnawing at the
flowers heart and the petals have begun
to curl.

peculiar virtues and ample powers to

Thousands of the strongest testimonials
from the best known and most reliable
men and women Of our country fully sus-
tain the claims made by DR.. Phelps re-
garding his incompatible Paine's Celery

One of the most convincing proofs fur
nished comes recently from a gentleman
widely known in the capital city of the
Dominion of Canada. We refer to Mr..
Alfred Brown, 81 OConnor street, Otta-
wa, Ont. Mr.. Browns letter fully dem
Onstrates the fact that the greatest suf-

unrivaled place in the estimation of peo-
pie of wealth and social standing as well
as with the masses. Mr.. Brown says:
81 acknowledge with thankfulness and
pleasure the fact that I have been cured
of q very painful illness OF eight years
standing by use of Paine's Celery Com
pound. 1 had, during the years of my
illness, tried almost all the advertised
medicines without deriving any good re-
suits. l was also treated by several of
the best doctors of this city, hoping to
find that one of them, at least, would I'M
derstand my case.
Il was getting worse, and was told I
was incurable. l was indeed in a critical
condition. I could rotgo from the house
alone, as 1 was liable to sudden collapse.

or good results came to me- I could not
sleep; anything that [ ate increased my
agonies; L was extremely weak, restless,
tired and respondent; was obliged to
walk about with my hands pressed firmly
into my left side to ease my pains; my
feet and hands were cold continually; had
inclination to vomit had profNse cold
sweats, quick breathing, and would be
racBed with pain for hours at a time.
After the regular use of Paine's Celery
Compound for a time I am now in the

can use any kind of food. Thank God

made goods is ended so far as he is con-

that conditions are greatly changed
since 1 introduced my bill. Instead OF
the steel trust exporting great quantities
of its products it is now importing large
amounts of material, which is turned into
finished product and again exported. 1t
would be exceedingly ill-advised to urge
any change in the tariff under these con-
ditions'
