inches behind the left nipple, grazing
the heart, entering the lung and cut.
ting a hole through the aorta.
The testimony of witnesses was that
the men were on the sidewalk: that
Haywood aimed and fired; that at the
second shot Skinner walked with high
and wavering steps to the center Of the
street, staggered and fell on his face
dying in a few moments.
deputy sheriff ran out of the court
house as the second shot was fired and
arrested Haywood.
The latter was given a preliminary
hearing after two hours consultation
with his lawyers and was committed
to jail for murder without bail.
Haywood's demeanor was cool. He

VoLUNTARIL Y SURRENDERED.
Young Man Tells Police Of Theft OF
Valuable Gems

Denver, Feb ga young man Civ
ing his name as Fred J. Fox, walked
into the police station just before /
o'clock this morning and said he want
ed to surrender. He told Captain Lee
that he was wanted in Detroit, Mich,
for the theft of $22,50 worth of dia-
monds Fox said he worked for
Charles Rice, wholesale and retail
jewellers, and often made large pur-
chases of goods for him.
About six weeks ago, he says, he
went to the Arm of Horace w. Steere
and got possession of diamonds val
ued at the amount given above. Then
he left the city and went to Kansas
City where he disposed of the dia-
monds for $4,000. He came to Den
yer, he says, a month ago and had
$12,500 when he reached here. He
says he still has the money and will
use it in trying to get out of the trou-
Bile. The police have telegraphed the
authorities in Detroit asking if Fox is
wanted there. When searched at the
Jail the money was found in Fox's
pockets. He smile at the captain who
conducted the search and remarked
that day sooner would have shown
different result.

POWERS SEND NOTE
TO TURKEYS RULER
Reforms In Macedonia Must

No Modification of the Reform
Scheme and They Demand Its Ap'

Constantinople, February 23.-The
note on the subject of reforms in Ma
scedonia. presented to the grand vizier
Saturday by the Austro-Hungarian and
Russian ambassadors, has been trans
lated into Turkish and was handed to
the sultan the. same evening. The
powers recommend, in addition to the
appointment of an inspector general

ample powers to act independently and
to requisition troops in case of emer-
gency and the reorganization Of the
gendarmerie and the police under Eu-
ropean instructors, that Christians be

bers proportionate to the population,
without being required to read ard

ty is also demanded for all persons
who have been arrested for political of
fenses
The scheme for administration and
financial reforms in Macedonia as pro-
posed by the powers in the note,
besides planning a more equitable col
lection of taxes, provides that local
expenses shall be the first charge of
the reverenues of each cilayet. In
the event Of there being a surplus this
may be sent to Constantinople Meas
ures are also demanded for compelling
the Albantans to respect the laws.
The power which it is proposed to
give the inspector general must be con
flrmed by the powers. thus virtually
detaching him from the direct control
Of the authorities at Constantinople, is
almost sure to encounter opposition
from the Turkish government.
The latter also will most like

cruit the gendarmerie, which. If the

FURNACES HAVE BIG STOCK.
Many Advance Orders Make Market
Very Quiet.

Birmingham, Ala, Feb. 23.-The iron
market is in an exceedingly quiet con-
dition just now. Practically all of
the manufacturers have contracts
which will keep them busy up to July
1, and are, therefore, in no bury to
book orders. There are very few con-
sumers who have not made arrange.
ments for enough iron to last them un-
tily July /, and they are, therefore, in
no hurry to buy. Many of them be-
lieve that the prices now charged are
too high and that delay of a few
months in giving their orders will en-.
able them to secure cheaper material
Of course, B number of the furnaces
already have contracts for the entire
years supply. No. 2 iron is sold at
$3.50 and some has recently sold as
high as $40
The stocks of the furnaces of the
country have increased from 100000
tons Jan. /, 1903, to $4,000 tons on
the first of February. OF the latter
amount 81 800 tons were coke iron, as
against $4,000 on Jan. /.

DRESSED coBRA's WOUND.
Periious Operation at New York 70.
oioqicaI Gardens,

New York, Feb. 23-Under Bkilful
treatment at the New York geological
gardens in Bronx park, a deadly CO.
bra, which recently broke his jaw in a
fit of violent rage, is on the road to
recovery.
The dressing on the head of the poi
sonous creature has been renewed
with considerable difficulty. AS a
sting from the reptile means death, the
operation of applying a dressing to
the cobra is a most perilous task.
The cobra was slumbering when Gu
rator Ditmars. cautiously opening the
big door thrust in a long wooden
pole with two prongs. Pressing this
down on the cobra's head he held it
prisoner until Keeper Snyder got in
side.
The reptile, now thoroughly arous-
ed, agitated it's tail frantically. but
Snyder held it's head firmly to the
floor while Ditmars removed the old
dressing and replaced it with a new
one. The operation took about 10
minutes. AS the two men slipped
away and slammed the door, the infu.
rated reptile made a vicious lunge
toward them.
