(By the Associated Prcss.)

New York, Feb. A deputy sheriff

William Hopper Young, whose trial Tor
the murder of Mrs Annie Pulitzer was
set for today was too i'll to leave mas
cell. When District Attorney Jerome

by a physician who stated that Young
was able to appear He was very nerV-
Gus, the doctor said, which was natural
under the circumstances.
Justice Herrick decided that the trial
must proceed and ordered the warden
to bring the prisoner into court.
Young was half led and half dragged
into the court room, his face ashen
white. his hair and beard long and I'M
kempt and his eyes rolling. He col
lapscd when placed in chair and thea
Strengthening up made an attempt to adj
dress the court, saying: I'm not crazy
now" He was silenced, and confer
ence was held between court and coun-
sci, when it was decided that the prison
er should be examined by two physicians

torney and one by counsel for the de-
Tense When recess was called Young
either could not or would not walk AMI
had to be carried from the court room.
When court adjourned three jurymen
had been accepted.

Bowen Stirs Up German Ire.
CBy the Associated Press.)


Berlin. Feb 4.-Some disappointment is
felt by the German Foreign Office Off
cials at Minister Bowen's attitude in mis-
conferences with the Ambassadors at
Washington. Mr.. Bowen, it is said here,
imprcsses the representatives of the
allies as allowing his fighting spirit to
oyerbear his desires for quick settle
mont His demeanor at the conferences
is described as that of an advocate de-
Tending an innocent, prosecuted client
Besides the Foreign Office regards Mr..
Bowen's first proposition as having been
changed after it was accepted, and it is
held that it was not clearly stated and
for that reason was misunderstood.
IT is also averred here that Mr.. Bowen's
powers are not so full as desirable.
The cooperating powers, standing By
their first condition that the blockade
shall not be raised until an adequate
guarantee for the payment of the re-
served claims is given, have instructed
their embassies at Washington to insist
upon such an adequate guarantee. Other
wise the blockade will continue for
months. or for years if this is necessary
to persuade President Castro to meet
the demands of the allies. Some Of
Minister Bowen's suggestions are regard
cd as being almost trivial The view
is held in Berlin that he does not real
ize that the cooperating powers are in
earnest in that they cannot and will nor
depart from the only stipulation which
they made precedent to arbitration"

HOBS0N MAKES A REQUEST.
Wishing to Resign Now, He Would Return to
Navy in Case of War.
(By the Associated Press.)

Washington, Feb. Admiral Taylor.
Chief of the Navigation Bureau, has
made the following recommendations to
the Secretary of the Navy concerning
Captain Hobson's resignation:
The bureau is reluctant to recommend
the acceptance of this officers resigna-
ton, believing that time should be given
him to reconsider his decision and make
trial of the new duties at the station
to which he has been assigned, that the
government may retain the services OF
an officer whose record has been SO
brilliant"
Secretary Moody today telegraphed this
recommendation to Captain Hobson with
the statement that the department APP
proved it and transmitted it to him for
his consideration.
Captain Hobson gives as a reason for
his action the bad condition of his eyes
and concludes his letter as follows:
Upon thus severing my official con-
nections with the navy I beg to make
the following standing and permanent
request: That upon the approach of war
or a similar emergency the President
forward to Congress the application
hereby make to be restored to the navy
and assigned to active duty during the
period of emergency
The attitude of the construction corps
to which Mr.. Hobson is attached, is dis
closed in this endorsement upon the let
ter:
'The bureau recommends acceptance,
to take effect February 5th, 1903.
(Signed.) &c. T. BOWLES."

The dead are: Timothy Sullivan, aged
30, ladder man. Gus Russell, IS. pipe
man.

Baker.
The fire when discovered had gained
such Roadway that the firemen found it
would be impossible to save the build
ing. The Parish Hall was formerly the
Society's church.
The firemen climbed to the steepie of
the church and from it, as a point of van
tage. unheeding the flames in the main
part, were pouring water upon the
threatened property. The roof unexpect-
edly fell in, carrying the steeple with it
and forcing the walls outward and down
upon the firemen, who were below.

while contending for the legitimacy OF
the business, realizes that the day of

A distiller on Monday approached me,
and handing me $500, said: II am pre-
