Hudson, n. Y, Dec. 30.-One of the
most sensational murder cases ever
known in New York state has culmin-
ated in a confession by Harvey Bruce,
aged 81, in the form OF a statement To
his mother and aunt. The statement is
witnessed by Mayor Harvey and County
Treasurer Macy, and tells how the mur-
der Of Peter A. Hallenbeck, wealthy
farmer Of Greenport, was committed on
Christmas evening by Harvey Bruce and
Willis, Burton and Fred Won Wormer,
brothers, aged 20, 20 and 20, nephews Of
the murdered man. The prisoners, who
all lived in Undertook, 10 miles from
the Hallenbeek home, drove TO the scene
of the crime, went to the rear Of the
house in the moonlight, raped on the
door and when the old man opened it
shot him to death, firing l3 shots, II u
which penetrated the body. The crime
was witnessed by Hallenbeck's wife and
old mother, the other members Of the
family being at Christmas eve services.
Until last fall the Won Wormer family
lived in house in Greenport, mortgaged
to Hallenbeck. Because he thought the
boys troublesome, Hallenbeck foreclosed
the mortgage and the family were evicted.
This was the basis Of the i'll will held
against Hallenbeck.

Arbitration for America.

Washington, Jan. 1.-The state de-
partment received dispatches today from
Mexico City making clear for the Iirst
time what is to be expected on the sub
ject Of arbitration, which has been the
most important and the most difficult
problem before the congress of American
republics. The adviccs came from MIR.
buchanan, the American delegate who
was assigned to look after this particular
question.
lie states that an agreement on the
lines Of The Hague conference appears to
be favored by the majority Of the repub-
lies, and that this will probably be the
basis OF action to be taken by the con-
gress. He also states that those repub-
lies which desire to 60 further than The
Hague agreement very likely will sign
an Independent convention for compul-
sorry arbitration. The congress is rap
idly drawing to a close and another fort
night will probably bring final adjourn
ment so that the determination of the
arbitration question appears to be very
near at hand.

War with Germany.

London. Jan. l.-Commenting on the
London Times statement from Washing
ton that persons Of considerable import
ance in official circles there profess to
believe that war between the United
States and Germany is inevitable, the St.
James Gazette, though it does not ce
lieve that such disaster will be allowed
to occur over dispute in regard to the
debts OF Venezuela to Germany, says that
if it does. there can be no doubt that
English svmpathies will be with Amer
lea. At the same time the st. James
Gazette expresses the hope that the Uni
ted States will not allow such states as
Venezuela to gain the impression that
they can reckon on the protection Of the
Monroe doctrine il they choose to repu-
date their obligations to Europe.

passed into conatose state and began
to sink rapidly. Great alarm was at
once felt and word sent to the family
and close friends. His wife and two
daughters were at his bedside at the
last.
The first symptoms of Governor
Rogers illness developed Friday. Fri

tracted a chill fever resulted and

in his chest. The fever increased
slightly and the pains became quite
severe. Sunday the first reports Of his
condition were given out. 1t was an

lobar pneumonia. the middle lobe of
the right lung being affected. He was
attended by DR.. Ingham Of Olympia.
While he was acknowledged to be
seriously i'll. his condition was not
considered dangerous.

Berlin, Dec. 3O.-American diplomacy
in Berlin, SO far as it relates to com.

interference Of the private interests con-

of the state department has been con-
tinually impaired by American business
men acting Independently of diplomatic
channels. This is the startling purport
of communication made to the CORE
