IA unexpected events of the morn
ing that they did not realize the
vast seriousness of the situation for
hours. Then it dawned upon them that
appearances We're really against them
and that they We're alone in a land far
beyond the reach of help from home.
One circumstance puzzled them with
its damnng mystery: How came the
blood stains upon the doOrknobi Dan
gloss courteously discussed this strange
and unfortunate feature with them, but
with i'll concealed Skcpticism. 1t was
evident that his mind was clear in re-
gard to the whole affair.
Anguish was Of the opinion that the
real murderer had stained the knob in
tentionally, aiming to cast suspicion on
The man who had been challenged. The
assassin had an object in leaving those
sonvicting finger marks lwhere they
would do the most damage. He either
desired the arrest and death of the
American or hoped that his own guilt
might escape attention through the
misleading evidence. Lorry held, from
his deductions, that the crime had been
committed by fanatic who loved his
sovereign too devotedly to see her we'd
aed to Lorenz. Then why should he
wantonly cast guilt upon the man who
had been her protector, objected Dam
gloss.
The police guards came in from the
hotel about 10 o'clock, bearing marks
of an ugly conflict with the Axphaini-
ans. They reported that the avengers
had been quelled for the time being,
but that a dcputation had already
started for the castle to lay the matter
before the princess. Officers had
searched the rooms of the Americans
for blood stains, but had found no sign
of them.
Ibid you find bloody water in which
hands had been washed:" asked An
guish.

"There was nothing TO be found in the
bowls and jars except soapy water.

there is blood upon them" Lorrys

This may cost Edclweiss a great

the streets. THE princes friends have

President and Wife start for Cruise

s u $ I sE s T. a5
 Oyster Bay, N. Y, July 9-President and Mrs. Roosevelt left sagamore Hill tonight, boarded the naval yacht sylph and started on cruise up the Hudson river. Secretary oeb declined to state the destination of the president, but it Is known that he is going to some point 8 short distance up the river, perhaps above Poughkeepsie, to visit a friend of the family. It is understood that the president and Mrs. Roosevelt will reach the end of their Journey some time to- morrow morning, and that they expect to start in a few hours on the return trip, They are due at Sagamore Hill tomorrow night. "
 Arrangements for the trip were cloth- ed in the greatest secrecy. It is said that even members of the president s family were not cognizant of them. In some manner a runnor of the contem- plated cruise became current in the yii- lage. It was confirmed by MT. Loeb af- ter the departure of the president. It is expected that the Sylph will reach the mouth of the Hudson river about one o'clock tomorrow morning.

TOLPINI,s DEATH.
Tragic Afrasr carsfaiiy Kept from tns Pope.

Rome, July 9.--The tragic. death of
 Monsignor Volpini was carefully kept
 from the pope throughout the day. It
 was at first feared thatit would be nec-
 essary to inform the pontiff in order that Monsignor volpinis successor to
 the office of secretary of the consistory
 might be nominated, but after discuss sion by the vatican authorities it was decided that the precedents admitted of the nomination of a secretary with |out the intervention of the pope. The chief importance of the position is felt at the time of conclave, so that If 1t is considered essential to fill Monsignor Volpinis place Cardinal Camerlengo will designate a secretary of the con sistory. This procedure will permit of the news of Monsignor volpini's death being withheld from the pope indefinite | ly. When the amelioration in the condi- | tion of the pope presented such favor able systems this morning Pope Leo decided, after Cardinal Rampollo, to re- ceive also all the other cardinals living lin Rome, to the number of about twen- ty-five. as a special mark of his gratifl- cation at the part they took in his ill.,
 ness. A special notice was sent them calling them to the vatican.

BUILDING TRADES STRIKE.
Rcsumpsion of Work Now Della ed by
 Mere Technicaiity.

New York, July 9.--Following a con- ference between the board of governors of the Building Trades Employers as- sociation and the delegates of the sew enteen most important unions affected by the building tie-up, it was announce ed tonight that the delegates had de- cided to report to their unions within lforty-eight hours urging the acceptance of the plan of arbitration as amended and agreed to. After its acceptance work will be resumed at once.
 To-day's meeting was necessitated by a hitch over the fifteenth clause of the plan referred to union and non-union labor. The following substitute was finally adopted:
 ..The matter of supplying sufficient Workmen shall be left to the arbitration board of the individual trade, to be goy- erned by it's trade conditions; but in case of continued failure on the part of the unions to supply sufficient work men any member of the Building Trades Employers association may re- fer the matter to the general arbitra- ton board of settlement.
 It was further agreed that the first clause of Article Is. which provides that the wages now paid in the unskilled trades shall not be reduced nor the
 hours increased for one year from the date of the general acceptance of the lagreement, and shall apply to skilled trades also. A general provision that all existing trade agreements remain in full force,
 except as they may conflict with the arbitration plan, also was adopted.
