The Story Of the Crime.

Boston. Feb. 25.-The arrest of j. Will
frid Blondin, the suspected wife murder
or, was the result OF one of the most per-
sistent searches ever made by police au-
thcrities, especially those of New York
and this city. The man has been fug-
Tive since last June, when the headless
body of his wife was found III the woods
At Chelmsford, Mass. The body was
found June 9TH two days later the miss
ing portion was found Ia brook some
distance away from the place where the
body had been.
The police learned that Mrs. Blondin
and her husband had been living in II
lodging house in this city. Subsequent
Investigations disclosed evidence which
led 10 the theory that in lit of passion
due to jealousy, the womans husband
had s;rangled her, and concealing the
body in trunk had taken 1t 10 Chelms-
ford at night. To prevent Identification,
II was thought the head was cut of and
thrown into the brook and the body hid
den in the woods.
Blondin was an engineer. When the
police went to his place OF business,
they found that he had left the night be-
fore and the chase began which has last
cd until today.

Committee on the Philippines resumed
it's sittings today with General Robert

he had been appointed provost marshal
general Of Manila. At that time the in
surrecto forces were quartered in the
city and there was free communication
between them and the Americans. When
later Aguinaldo was directed to move
out he objected strenuously. but went.
At first, the witness said, the people of
the city We're quite friendly. but by the
first OF January. 1899, there was q
change in their bearing. This change he
attributed to, Aguinaldo's Influence and

DIPLOMATIC AND CONSULAR BILL.
Fifth Regular Annual supply Measure Passed
by the House.
tBy the ssociated Press.)

Washin gton, Feb. 25.-The House today
passed the Diplomatic and Consular Ap-
preparation Bill. 1t was the fifth of the
regular annual supply measures to be
sent to the Senate at this session. No
amendments of Importance were adopted.
The feature OF the day was the speech
OF Mr.. Richardson (Ala). In reply to Mr..
Corliss' speech few days ago in favor
of the construction OF a Pacific cable by
the Government The question OF re-
forming the consular service was deba-
ted at some length but no amendments
upon that subject were offered.
Mr.. Richardson protested against Mr..
Corliss' course in delivering what he
termed his ''well prepared and widely
disseminated speeches" before the sub
ject had come before the House for con-
sideration and said II looked like an ef-
fcrt to forestall the Judgment of the
House.
He took up the Michigan member S
statement that Great Britain was about
to construct a 1000 miles cable from
Vancouver to Australia and declared that
the statement was :ngeniously made TO
afford precedent tor our government
whereas as matter OF fact. he said,
Great Britain had offered subsidy to
any private corporation which would build
the cable. II WAS only because no corpo-
ration could be pursuaded TO take the
risk that England decided to construct
the cable itself.
He denied that the Commercial Cable
Company had been offered n subsidy by
Germany to land on the Marshal Islands.
The company. he said. was prepared, if
il was practicable, to build an all Ameri-
can cable. He ridculed Mr.. Corlss' de-
scription Of this company as an "octu-
rus." He warned the members of the
House not to decide the question until
the facts on both sides had been regu-
larry and finally presented.
Champ Clark of Missouri, made a char
acteristic speech, urging that instead OF
criticisng the present consular system
definite plans for betteriug the system
should be presented. For himself, he did
not favor the so-called merit system. When
the Republicans carried the elections he
believed they had a right TO the Offices;
when the Democrats carried the elections
be believed they had a right TO the Offices.
Mr. Clark caused much laughter by re-
farrirg 10 the Democratic SUCCESS In

An hour before the body convened the

expecting a sequel to the great debate
of yesterday on the right OF the Sena-
tors from South Carolina to cast their
votes while under the ban of contempt
by the Senate.
Several Democratic Senator's had books
upon their desks and it was evident that
they were preparing TO continue the con-
test OF yesterday. This was made the
Liore evident Immediately after the Sen
ate convened When the clerk began the
reading of the journal OF yesterdays pro-
eeedings the usual request that the read
ing be suspended was made by Mr.. Stew

(Dem., Wasl.). and Mr. Dubois (Dem.

OF the proposal, as they wished 10 escape

entering upon its skirmishing stage.
The Americans, he said, were about TO
spend vast sums in an attempt TO cap

though the weaker houses would prob

doubt the invasion would ultimately
fail.

ers. The announcement OF Representa-
tive Crump's death had reached the SEN
ate yesterday but was withheld until to-
day. When the Republican Senator'S were
informed of this fact, they were only too
willing TO use the announcement to Sc
cure ar adjournment and their Demo
cratic colleagues We're just as willing that
il should be so used. All Senators recog-
nized the fact that the Senate is under
somewhat serious tension and all felt
that both time and temper might be
saved by stopping for twenty-four hours
for q general conference and exchange OF
views over the situation.
The Republican members of the Sem
ate Committee on Privileges and Elec-
tions were in consultation during the af-
ternooD over the resolution which it was
proposed to bring TO the attention of the
Senate tomorrow through the committee
providing for the suspension OF the two
South Carolina Senators. None Of the
Senators present at the conference would
consent to disclose the details of their
proceedings. but t is learned in a gen
eral way that considerable doubt was
expressed by some OF the members as to
the regularity OF the suggested proceed
ings. some OF the Senator'S holding that
the suspension of Senator's even by the
Senate itself would be subject to criti-
cism. The feeling was quite general that
the problem Is a difficult and intricate
enc and the opinion was expressed that
ii would be impossible TO formulate n
line OF action that could be put into
execution at so early date as tomorrow
Senator'S Burrows and Foraker were ap.
pointed q subcommittee to consult au-
thorities and suggest form of proceed
ing either in the line proposed or on
other lines.
