Witness had exchanged his usual greet

ed pleasantly in his customary fashion, ana
didn't appear to be expecting trouble.
Colonel Harris asked Mr. Glenn few
questions to elecit the fact that Glenn
walked into the Register Of Deeds office
lat his usual gait, which was not very
fast where he was on business, and
that Haywood usually walked faster than
witness did. The question here was one
of time between the meeting on the court
house steps and the hearing OF the first
shot, which Mr.. Glenn heard just as he
was about to sit down after walking across
the office OF the Register OF Deeds.
Mr.. r. o. Moring. of this city, was next
examined by Solicitor Daniel He was in
the postoffice and looked out Of the win
dow south of the main entrance after the
second shot. Skinner was little more
than half way to the street car track
He was in line toward JOhnson's drug

desire to state that I suffered severely
with Muscular and Sciatic rheumatism
for five years. During this time 1 tried
a variety of so-called remedies, as we'll
as the prescriptions of several physicians
which afforded me very little if any relief.
The pain in my back, hps and legs was
agonizing and almost unbearRble.

A friend of mine advised me to try
URTCSOL, which I did reluctantly. and
greatly to my surprise, one bottle cured
me sound and weu. I cheerfully recon-
mend it to all who suffer as l did. It is
also very fine tonic. It increases the
appetite, .,ids digestion, and finally builds
up the general health You can use this

NEED NOT HELP
BUILD CHURCHES
City of Berlin Wins in It's
Contest With the En-
perOr.

BERLIN, March 13.-The long legal
fight over the attempt to compel the
Berlin municipality to contribute to-
ward building churches was ended to-
day with decision of the civil court in
favor of Berlin. The case grew out of
Emperor Williams great church build
ing campaign in the early years of his
reign, for which he wanted the Berlin
councilmen to make appropriations.
The councilmen refused, which caused
strained relations between the emperor
and the municipal government The po-
lice president of Berlin took hand in
the controversy seven or eight years
ago by resurrecting an old consistorial
decree dated 1873. which he interpreted
to make 1t an obligation on the city to
give money to build churches. The po-
lice president ordered the municipality
to pay $4,000 for two churches, ST.
Marcus and st. Simons, then in course
of erection.
The municipality paid the money un-
der protest, but brought suit to re-
cover the amount. The provincial court
decided in favor of Berlin in 1897, but
the consistorium appealed to the civil
court, which rendered it's decision to-
day. The case involved an enormous
amount of work. Assistant Burgomas-
ter Kaufman worked himself to death
in examining the records since 1873 and
in writing a bulky volume tending to
prove that Berlin never appropriated
money for building churches.

PENNELL AND
BURDICK INQUESTS
Justice Murphy Determined
That the Truth Shall
Be Found.

BUFFALO, March 13.-It was an
nounced by Justice Murphy today that
an Inquest on the death of Arthur r.
Pennell and Mrs. Pennell will be held
soon after the conclusion Of the Bur-
dick inquest. The Burdick inquest will
begin tomorrow. Everyone whose
name has been mentioned in connection
with the murder of Edwin L. Burdick
will be brought to the witness stand
II he can be reached with a subpoena.
The bodies of Mr.. and Mrs. Pennell
were taken TO the New York Central
station this afternoon, after a brief
funeral service and placed on board a
train for Brunswick, Me. Justice MUIR
ply said today:
Vestigation into the deaths of the PEN
nells will be fully as searching, thor
ough and conclusive as l hope to make
that into the death of Mr.. Burdick It
Will be in no sense a formal affair. It
is my duty and it will be my pur-
pose to determine, as far as the evi-
dence will show, whether the Pencils
deaths were due to accident or sui
eide. l have issued subpoenas for
everyone who has any knowledge of
the accident. l shall issue subpoena
for Gyger, the man who says he saw
Mrs. Pennell drinking liquor from a
flask a few minutes before the acci-
dent. l shall issue subpoena for
Lawrence Martin, the foreman, who
took the empty flask from Gyger, and
now has 1t in his possession. am not
inclined to place too much dependence
on the suicide theory, so far as it re-
lates to the Pennells."
The Will of Burdick was made public
today. Burdick cuts off his wife, whom
he was suing for divorce, without a.
cent. He leaves $500 to relatives, and
the rest of his property to his three
children. The will was made Dec. 8,
1902. Mr.. Burdick names as executors
Augustus F. Kellogg, George H. Duns-
ton and George c. Miller. He names
Charles Parke and Risley Tucker, his
business associates. as guardians of
his three children.
The petition for probate gives no def
mite idea of the correct valuation of
Burd1cks estate. The petitioners es-
innate the value Of his real property at
$400, manifestly too low, and his per-
sonal property at $1,000 and upwards.
Burdick, it is said, made his will with
out aid of a lawyer.
Objections were filed on behalf of
Mrs. Burdick. The will was admitted
to probate under the stipulation that
the objection of Mrs. Burdick to the
clause providing for the appointment
OF testamentary guardians for the chill
dren be determined by the surrogate
at future date. Mrs. Burdick ex-
pressed perfect satisfaction with the
other sections of the will.

BE NAMED TODAY
Consul General at Montreal
Removed to Make Room
for Fargo Man.
From Globe Washington Bureau.

From Globe Washington Bureau.
WASHINGTON, D. c., March 13.-
Senator Hansbrough expects the ap-
pointment of Maj. A. W. Edwards, ed
1tor of the Fargo Forum ;ts consul gen
eral at Montreal, to be made tomorrow.
This expectation is based on an in
quiry which came from the state de-
partment today for Maj. Edwards full
name. The senator furnished the name,
but has not been in communication
with the department otherwise. 1t is
presumed that the commission was
made out today. The office of consul
general to Montreal has been held by
Col. Bittinger, of st. Joseph, Mo-, for
many years. 1t was promised to Ed
wards by Roosevelt the other day and
Edwards was asked If he wanted 1t.
He signified his intention to accept.
WASHINGTON, D. c., March 13.-
United States Consul John L. Bittinger
at Montreal has been invited to resign.
He will be succeeded by Maj. A. w.
Edwards. Col. Bittinger, while on leave
OF absence at his home, talk
ed freely of the relations between
the United States and Canada. This
was Aol Well received In CANADA ana
has led to the present action.
ST. JOSEPH, Mo-, March 13.-Maj.
John L. Bittinger, While here on leave
OF absence from Montreal two months
ago. said he would resign unless he
could be transferred to some more con-
genial post in the diplomatic service.
While here he gave an interview in
which he criticised the cuisine of the
French hotels of Montreal He declar-
ed there had been a lack of stateman-
ship and business sense on the part Of
the United States in making and in
terpreting commercial treaties with
Canada. He wanted more liberal con-
cessions on the part of his government
to obtain trade.
ST. JOSEPH, Mo-, March ia pri-
Vate dispatch from Washington receiv-
ed late tonight says Mai Bittinger's
recall was directly due to an interview
advocating annexation of Canada to the
United States, which he recently gave
to Montreal newspaper. The inter
view was based on utterances in con-
gress by Congressman De Almond, of
Missouri, who is strongly in favor of
union. Great Britain, according to the
dispatch, entered protest, and the re-
marks of the consul general were con-
s1dered OF sufficient Importance for his
recall.
