CHRISTMAS is DENOUNCED.

His Attorney Says His Charge is Out

New York, March 28.-Carl Fischer
Hansen of this city, who was attorney
for Walter Christmas, the representa-.
tive of the Danish government, in the
overtures for the purchase Of the Dan
ish West Indian islands in 1900, was
indignant at the conduct of his client
shown in his secret report to the Dan
ish ministry lately published.
"Ordinarily legal etiquette" said he,
would prevent my speaking; but this
report is so defamatory and outra-
geous that l feel justified in washing
my hands of the whole affair"

course of the Danish report as it ap-

Vocacy of Danish islands Purchase.
Washington, March 28.-Investiga-
tion into the charge that certain mem.
bers of the house and senate and 9th.
er men in high places may have been
influenced by improper considerations
in advocacy Of the purchase Of the
Danish West Indies will be had as the
result of a clever coup engineered by
Democratic Leader Richardson in the
house yesterday.
For an hour or more the house was
thrown into a state of great excitement
as the result Of the democratic de-
mand for investigation of certain
charges made by Captain Christmas,
who had some sort of connection with
the Danish government in the early
negotiations over these islands.
There are suggestions of improper
influence used upon some members of
congress, though it is fair to say that
these allegations are very general in
their character The particular point
made by the Democrats is that the
state department was in possession of
knowledge of these Christmas charges
when the purchase treaty was before
the senate. and the members of that
body were not informed of these
charges tending to throw suggestions
Of taint upon the negotiations.
In the secret report of Captain Wal
ter Christmas to the Danish govern
ment he declared that he had employ
ed corrupt means to bring the negotia,
tions for the sale Of the islands to a
consummation. The report, extracts
from which Mr.. Richardson read, men
toned the names OF Abner Mckinley
and his partner, Colonel Brown, C. w.
Knox, who was described as IAN init
mate friend of Senator Hanna" Rich
ard P Evans, who was said to repre-
sent MIR. Gardner and his friends in
the house" and two press associations,
the names of which were not given, as
having been interested in the matter
Upon the basis of this report Mr.
Richardson asked the adoption of a
resolution for the appointment of an
investigating committee of seven,
which was done.
Great excitement prevailed during
the proceedings.

Knoxville, Tenn, March 28.-A spe.

brutally murdered at her home at Sax

night. The murderer escaped and no
cleW is had as to his identity, nor is

atrocity.
Mr.. and Mrs. Older returned home
from church services about 9 o'clock.
Mrs. Older unlocked the front doer,
while Mr.. Older went to the hennery
in the rear to look after a supply of
eggs. A moment later he heard his
wife scream, and going to the front
of the house he saw an unknown man
disappearing from the front door. The
man made good his escape. Older
found his wife PROSTATE on the floor
in pool of blood and in a moment
she was dead. She had been Drained
by an AK which was lying by her side
and which was covered with blood
The murderer had concealed himself
in the house and struck the death
blow as she entered. Some are of the
opinion that it was fatal termination
of some love affair Of long ago.
Mr.. and Mrs. Older had been mar
ried but a short time and she was
young woman. Excitement is intense
especially in the mining section near
by, and it is feared violence may be
attempted if the murderer is appre.
hended. Posses are being organized
