Roosevelt To Discuss
Pacific Cable Affair

Washington, Nov. 7. - The Depart
ment of Justice received a letter to-
day from the Pacific Commercial Ca.
BILE Company requesting the Attorney
General to fix date upon which Pres.
ident Clarence W. Mackay, Vice Pres.
ident Ward and Attorney Cook could
meet him for the purpose of discuss
ing the terms dictated by the Presi-
dent upon which the Pacific cable
may be laid.
Thus far the cable company has CIV
en- no intimation whether 1t will &C.
cept or reject the terms imposed, al
though 1t has gone ahead as though it
expected no objections on the part of
the Government. A high official Of
the Department of Justice intimated
that the cable company might be
brought up with round turn II It at
tempted to lay the cable without COM
plying with the Presidents conditions,
which require that the line shall not
be laid on foreign territory nor be sub.
ject to foreign complications.
'"The President is determined to pro-
tect the interests of the Government
and the public" said this official."He
may mention the subject in his mes
sage to Congress, and Congress may
be called upon to act in the premises.
However the matter may be settled
by a conference with the cable com
pany's Officers, which will take place
some time after November 10Th"

Judge Gear concludes with the
opinion that the only power of ap-

OF officers is provided for by Section
so OF the Organic Act, under which the
Governor can remove the Auditor only
by and with the advice and consent OF
the Senate. "A special session of the

President Wight Of the Wilder
Steamship Company was seen by a
Bulletin reporter this morning and
asked If any communications had been
received from the Coast by the com
pany which might give further parti-
culars OF the accident mentioned In
the article above. Mr.. Wight stated
that no such communication had been
received. A note had, however, been
received from the Spreckels people
which. under the date OF Nov. IL stated
that the Kinau would leave San Fran
cisco for this port not later than No
vember IA. The Wilder people are con-
sequently expecting to see the flagship
of their fleet here on or about Novem-
Der 23. President Wight stated that he
was inclined to believe that the dam
age which the Kinau sustained in the
collision with the CARAT, was only
of very little consequence.

Why His Motion Failed,

A Montana attorney tells the follow
ing story: Recently | had occasion to
defend client in the police court for
resisting an officer. After the city had
put in its case | moved to discharge
the prisoner for the reason that no evil
dence had been introduced showing re-
sistance on part of defendant. The
city attorney argued the matter at
length, when | made a brief reply,
whereupon the judge announced that
the prisoner was guilty and would be
fined SIS. | Immediately replied that
the court evidently did not understand
the situation; it was motion to dis
charge, and, if that was overruled,
would then introduce evidence His
honor very Indignantly replied: Your
motion was not seconded; the prisoner
is found guilty"

CONGRESSIONAL
Mr.. Tillmans Charges.
OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES

WASHINGTON. - Especially For
more than six hours the Senate had
the PHILIPPINE tariff bill under discus
sion. Mr.. Bate, Democrat, of Tennes-
see, delivered carefully prepared
speech in opposition to the measure.
II was followed by Mr.. Spooner, Re-
publican. of Wisconsin. in brilliant
defense of the Republican attitude to-
ward the Philippine islands. He be-
came involved frequently in heated
colleagues with members Of the minor
ity. He concluded with an appeal to
Congress to stand by the policies Of
Mckinley and Roosevelt.
Mr. Tillman, Democrat, of South
Carolina, began a characteristic ar
raignment of the administration in the
Philippines, but had not concluded
when the Senate adjourned
Mr.. Spooner denounced the substi-
tute proposition made by the minority
of the Senate committee on the Phil
ippines as the most mischievous pro-
iect that could be advised by the wit
OF man in the present state of affairs.
at is" he said, bill to raise hell
in the Philippine Archipelago bill
which mas no merit whatever in II"
Mr.. Tillman declared that the eX-
preston of the motives for enacting
the bill were a subterfuge and hum
bug, and everybody knew it. He as
serted that this government in its
treatment of the Filipinos had re-
turned to the policy of Great Britain,
which had been overthrow by our
forefathers at Yorktown. 1T was" he
said, "a damnaDle doctri e."
He charged that the American au
thorities in the Philippines were
steering clear of the provinces in
the islands where war was real and
pressing and were confning them
selves to those places where Oppor-
tunity was affected to secure 'pelf"
and to rob the people.
"1hey were following" he declared.
"the same methods pursued in South
Carolina after the war of the rebellion.
1t was a carpetbag government" he
insisted.
1.-THE first thing" he said, (which
the carpetbag vermin in the Philip
pines would do (as they did in Cuba)
would be to get theis hands into the
pockets of the people and steal all they
could. l expect Governor Taft has
alredy caught some of the sccundrels,
but that would not be good thing to
ventilate in the United States just
now"
He said the Filipnos now were be-
ing "pacified off the face of the
earth"

alleges, was the last time he saw her
alive. He does not know how long he
slept and when he awakened and did
not hear his wife he says he went to
the rear dooryard and was Mortified to
see the interior of the granary ablaze.
Inside the door five feet back he said
he saw dark object lying on the floor.
Then, he says, he ran to the telephone
in his house and calling the Princeton
exchange. notified the operator, and re-
quested that his neighbors be informed
of the fire and that his wife was burn
ing up"
He then awakened his 9year-old
son, Harvey, and when Sanford Stiles
and H. A. Johnson, neighbors, arrived,
they found him making frantic efforts
to throw water over corncrib twenty
feet away and out of the path of the
fire. Hensel is alleged to have pointed
at the roaring furnace inside the gran
airy and directing his finger at the dark
object is said to have remarked, She
is in it," The farmers secured poles
and, after pushing the corner of the
building away, dragged the charred
body out. All that was left of it was
the head and trunk. Part of the arms
and the legs had been completely
burned away Later bone of the
hand and one of the foot were found.
Coroner w. M. Kaull was notified and
held and inquest. The verdict of the
jury after it heard Hensels and john
sons testimony was that Mrs. Hensel's
death was caused 'by an accident"
Sensation after sensation followed in
quick succession after the arrest of

Expert testimony from Chicago's

bodies to remain in burning buildings
before they were burned up. Other
witnesses, it is said, have now been

removed and taken to the laboratory

chemists reported they did not find a
sufficient quantity of poison to cause
death and that ended that theory But
what DR.. Hektoen did discover was
that the neck had been broken and
that a piece of the first vertebrae was
missing. The defense contends that

Colonel O. H. Ernst Of the Isthmian
canal commission, was before the COM
mittee on interoceanic canals of the
senate. In preliminary statement he
said the cuts on the Darien route be-
fore the tunnel was reached made that
route impraoticable. While ii had not
been examined carefully, he thought it
would take twenty years to construct
canal, and at cost of $290,000,O00. 4
Replying to series of questions be-
fore the Senate committee on the Phil
ippineS, Governor Taft, among other
things. said that the intervention of
the United States in the Philippines
was the best thing that could happen
for the Filipinos, but that it would
have been better for our country If we
had not gone there. He added: IF
the result in the end proves to be in
the interest OF tn general wlfare, then
we can possibly justify ourselves on
the ground that we have taken only
our share of the burden of civilization
in bringing out an uncivilized people"
Continuing the general discussion of
conditions in the Philippines he ex-
pressed the opinion that the trade with
the United States will ultimately in
crease and that the islands will be
self-supporting. even to the extent of
repaying the expenses of the United
States army there. do you believe
that what we are now doing in the
Philippines is best for the Filipino
and for the people of the United States
as well?" asked Senator Allison. II
do" said Governor Taft. 1--WE are pur-
suing there the only course open to
us. and it was absolutely impossible
for us to pursue any other course than
the one we did pursue and are pursu-
ing there"

them. When the fire Is lighted, the

hard that the next fire causes it to be-

ternal life insur-
ance she carried in his name, and be
free to marry another woman to whom
he was once betrothed. Hensel has
been twice indicted for the crime. IL
crime it was. He scorns the charges
made against him, and with his attor-
neys contends that the death of the
bride of five months was due to an &C
didental explosion of lamp and that
her neck was broken by timbers falling
which her unacceptable body was
taken.
Involved in the Hensel case are
many points similar to those I'M
earthed in the Luetgert and Rollinger
wife-murder trials, at Chicago. AS
in the Luetgert case. there is bone
which will play an important part in
proving the murder theory. There Is
a motive witness, too. She is the wo-
man Hensel was engaged to before he
married pretty Eva jeanette Van Du-
sen. In both the Luetgert and Rolling
er cases there was testimony that
they wished to be rid of their wives so
they could be free to marry other wo-
men. In the Luetgert case there was
the wedding ring. In this case there
is a portion of plate of gold filled
teeth to aid in the Identification.
Princeton is the county seat of Bu-
reau county. Prominent in the prose-
cution of the case is Assistant States
Attorney Olson, who has won laurels
as a trial lawyer and an unraveler OF
insurance consplracies. He has four
weeks vacation due him from 1900 and
1901, and will devote week of it to
this case, being retained by States At
torney Porter of Bureau county.
Another phase of the case is the
presence in connection Herewith of
Professor Ludwig Hektoen Of the Rush
Medical college, an expert witness. His
testimony will concern the missing
vertebrae, the cause of the woman's
broken neck.
1t was on the evening OF August 30,
