GOnzaJes' Funeral.

Columbia, S. c., Jan. 2O.-The body
of Editor n. G.. Gonzales, killed by
Lieut-Gov.'J. H. Tillman last Thursday,
will be borne to the grave this afternoon
at 4 o'clock from Trinity Church here.
The services will be conducted by Bishop
Ellison Capers, of the Episcopal diocese
of South Carolina. Tillman remains IN
his quarters in the county jail. He has
made no statement on the death of his
victim and is said to have shown no
feeling one way or the other when in
formed of Gonzales death. There is no
danger to Tillman from the Gonzales
friends or the general public, despite the
many wild reports of probable demon
stration against him. 1t is not known
vet what arrangements will be made for
the trial of Tillman,for murder, which Is
the charge that will be made against
him. The coroner's inquest will be held
Thursday evening.
1t is expected that Mr.. Tillman's
counsel will attend that hearing. There
is great sorrow over the whole State at
the death of Gonzales who was admired
even by those who did not hold his
opinions.
The condemnation of Tillman for
his act which is considered wanton
and without palliation, is very general.
Tillman's relatives and some of his per-
sonal friends are standing by him and
will see that his interests are properly
cared for.
1t is probable that the Inauguration OF
the new administration of the State
government will be held tomorrow, SO
Tillman will not be Lieutenant Cover
nor when the inquest over his victims
death is held.

SENATOR LODGE introduced resolu-
ton in the Senate yesterday. directing
the finance committee to inquire if Ger
many, France and Russia are discrlml-
mating against the United States, and If
so what law can be passed to give nom
discriminating countries preferential du-
ties. Mr.. Lodge proposes offering pref
erential tariff rates to countries which
do not discriminate against the United
States. But why does he blame Ger
many forimposing high duties on Amerl-
can products when this country has
erected tariff wall against Germany
and all other nations?

Narrow Escape from Death.

Albany, n. Y, Jan. 2O.-While the
Lake Shore limited due here at $40
p. M, was passing a point about two
miles this side of Cassleton, the locomo-
tive of south bound freight had the
cab end of its boiler blown QUE, with the
result that the engineer and fireman lost
their lives. They were blown from the
cab 200 feet away into an adjoining
field. At the moment the explosion oc-
CURED the Lake Shore limited was di-
rectly opposite the exploding engine.
The engineer and fireman escaped the
flying steel. A large piece struck one Of
the wheels on the tender and derailed it.
The baggage car was also hit by the
pieces and large hole was torn in the
side. The train was brought to stand
still before much damage had been done.
None of the passengers was injured.

The ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Situation

London, Jan. 20.-The Evening Sun
today asserts that friction has for some
time existed between Russia and Eng
land over the sugar bounties, while the
old Afghan question has taken seri-
GUS turn. The passage of Russian ships
through the Dardanelles has added to the
acuteness OF the situation and has placed
Great Britain in an awkward dilemma.
In view of these facts, the paper con-
tinues, Russia and Turkey were anxious
to have new representatives at the court
of st. James. Russia sent Count Becken-
dorff who arrived Unexpectedly on Fri
day last. The porte, learning of this,
sent Musurus Pacha post haste to Lon
don. These Ambassadors, the Sun as
serts are watching each other with stealthy
vigilance. The situation may develop
into one of great gravity.

OFFICIAL STEPS are to be taken
to decide whether anyone WAS guilty
of criminal recklessness III send
ing the crippled St. Louis on her recent
voyage. A full investigation should be
held. Certain it is that before the be-
lated ship reached port it was published
that her boilers were weak. If the
public knew this her owners should
have known it also, and for them to
have risked the lives of so many people
is most reprehensible, to say the least.

brought forth loud applause. He SAID
there had been a tradition that for rea-
SONS best known to the Eternal it had
been decreed that the Southern Confed-
eracy was not to be perpetuated, and In
order to bring about this result it was
necessary that Jackson should be killed
by his own comrades under conditions

mand and never laid down his arms
until told to do so by his beloved chief

to one-legged men who after the war fol-
lowed the plough and to the fact that they
did not become inmates of poor houses,
but showed their independence and man.
hood throughout life. The Senator sub
sequently paid fitting tribute to the
women of the South; told of their cheers
and blessings and the untold trials, pri-
yations and hardships during the long
struggle. The speaker said his State
had been very kind to him by placing
him in exalted positions, and he appre-
ciated their confidence, but he was more
PROUD of having been Confederate SOL
der than of any honor which could pos
sibIy be bestowed upon him. The close
of his speech was full of pretty illusions,
among them the fraternity which ever
existed between Confederate soldiers dur
ing and since the war. He appealed to
their descendants to cherish the memory
of their illustrious sires and keep their
memories green among future genera
tons.
Great and continued applause follow
ed when the Senator finally took his
seat.
Capt. Herbert Bryant was next called
OH for few remarks, but he said he had
not come prepared, and begged to be
excused.
Capt. John Hoof, a former Alexan-
drian. was called on and he made short
and entertaining address.
He was followed by Mr.. j. S. Black
burn, who was in turn followed COL
Arthur Herbert, both of whom spoke
briefly. Their remarks were reminis-
cent and entertaining.
Rev. DR.. Brooke was the next speaker.
His remarks we're thrilling and interest
ing throughout. The doctor referred to
many historical facts in connection with
the principles for which the people OF
the South fought.
Capt. Simmons, an ex-federal officer
of Elmira, n. Y, followed by DIR.
Brooke. His speech was short, but up
propriate, and was mainly in regard to
the good feeling prevailing between ex-
federal and Confederate soldiers, the
members of both armies being ever ready
to accord due credit to the brave whether
wearers of the blue or the gray.
DR.. Powell, of Occoquan, Surgeon
General of the Grand Camp, was the last

Consideration of the District of Column
bia appropriation bill, which was before

Yesterday, was resumed.
Governor George X. Nash, of Ohio,
and J. Warren Keifer of Ohio, former
Speaker of the House of Representatives
of Congress, were on the floor.
Taking advantage of the latitude OF
general debate, Mr.. Sheppard, one OF
the Youngest members of the House, who
succeeded his father, the late Represen-
tative Sheppard, made his maiden speech
on trusts and the race question. Trusts,
he declared hourished in contempt OF
law and the republican party was their
shield and ally. President Roosevelt,
he said, had declared he would curb
these great corporations, but he had
failed to keep his word. The President,
said Mr.. Sheppard, had been placed in
Office by destiny, but destiny had made a
grave mistake. The President and At
torney General Knox, who, he said, is
the advisor of the steel trust, had both
violated their oaths of Office by failure
to enforce the laws of the land against
trusts and corporations.
Mr.. Cochran (dem. Mo- spoke on the
failure of this government to reach an
agreement with Great Britain concerning
the Canadian Alaskan boundary.
Gas soon as we stop trucking to
Great Britain" declared Mr.. Cochran, "
the Canadians will, and then they will
come over to our side.
"You lie' came the words from the
visitors gallery. A tallyOung girl, with
a white face, who was listening intently
aud who is evidently British in her SYM
pathies, was the speaker. The words
created a momentary sensation but re-
publicans and democrats rallied quick y
and were soon laughing over the incl-
dent.
"She's only a woman" said Mr..
Cochran. He continued his speech, de-
nouncing the attitude of the administra-
ton for playing second fiddle to Great
DTIldlu.
Mr.. Hepburn (rep. Iowa. denied Mr..
Cochran's statement that this country
had surrendered to Canada strip OF
land bordering on Alaska which was in
dispute.
Mr. Cochran had denounced this sur
render as a crime. Col. Hepburn call
ed attention to vast strip in the
Northwest which bordered on Washing
ton and extended from the Pacific
ocean in land to the Lake Of the Woods.
This territory, Mr.. Hepburn said, was
as large as a dozen of the States of the
Union and had been surrendered by the
democrats to Great Britain and he
wanted to know whether this was not 8
crime.
Mr.. Cochran replied that he had de-
nounced the act.
The young lady responsible for the
sensational interruption was accom-
panied by an old woman, whom she
subsequently addressed as grand
mother" Both left the gallery when
Mr. Cochran had concluded.
81 shan't tell you," the young lady
replied, with a decidedly British accent,
when asked her name.
Don't say word, my dear" was
the older woman's caution, as both de
parted from the gallery.

WHIPPED HIS WIFE WITH A SLIP
PER.-Mrs. Wah Kee, the young and
pretty wife of an Atlantic, City n. D.,
Chinese laundryman, was driven from
home last week by her husband and
Sunday she broke down the door Of the
house to get picture from her bedroom.
Yesterday Philip J. Leigh, agent for the
S. p. C. A., had her arrested for disorder
" conduct and she was held in $3.50 bail to
keep the peace. Mrs. Kee tells a story
of sadness and suffering. She says she
was born in China 20 years ago and sold
by a woman in Philadelphia when she
was IA years old to her husband for $3.50.
They were married in Camden by the
American ceremony nda came to Atlantic
City to live. He whipped her with his
slipper because she would not wear her
Chinese clothes when she wanted to dress
like American women. He took her food
from her because she would not worship
the little oriental plaster idols he does,
and on Thanksgiving Day he spirited
away her little son to some unknown
place to punish her for desiring to walk
on the street with him. Wah Kee, who
is % years older than Mrs, Kee, says
that she has absorbed too many Ameri-
can ideas and is not satisfied to live after
the manners and customs of her people,
and for those reasons he told her to get
out and do for herself Mrs. Kee threat
ened to asphyxiate herself, but kind
friends have come to her aid and she is
determined to bring civil suit for support
as her lord and master is in prosperous
circumstances.
