Editor Brooks of The Review, it now

go upstairs. Climbing on the stair rail
he peeped over the transom and saw
the murderer kneeling beside his vic
tim. He got fairly good description
of the man. He Immediately summoned
William Cavanaugh, who also saw the
murderer just as he disappeared into
an adjoining Office and escaped. A
handkerchief with indistinct initials re-
sembling G. R. K, was found near the
body on which the murderer had wiped

STUDENTS AND POLICE
CLASHED AT BOSTON

Boston, Nov. Sat least twenty-five
persons were injured during a CLASH
between students of the Massachusetts
institute of technology and police re-
serves shortly after midnight. Of the
number injured twenty were students.
Most of Tie injuries consisted of scalp
wounds and body bruises.
Four students and four officers were
SO seriously injured as to compel their
removal to hospitals. Others were
treated at drug stores and houses.
The trouble occurred on the steps of
Rogers Hall, one of the technology
buildings on Boylston Street, where the
students had gathered following the
joint parade last night of the republi
can clubs of Edward University and of
the institute of technology. The police
had determined to keep students from
the steps of the building and when the
college men made rush up the steps
they were met with officers with drawn
clubs, and alfight ensued. The officers
used their clubs freely, and soon many
of the college men were bleeding from
wounds on the face and head.
Hundreds of students hurried to the
support of their fellows and the police
in turn summoned assistance with the
result that soon $50 officers were Ell
gagged with four times as many students.
1t was half an hour before the police
were masters of the situation.

mer Senator Schumann, father of Eu-

sin of the late Governor General Bro
brikof, who has been on trial at Abo
for some time charged with having had
knowledge of his sons crime in his plea
admits that he wrote the me mortal re-
garding the necessity for the organi-
cation of the Finnish, but he claims it
was without reasonable intent. Schu-
mann explains that he wrote it one
evening when he had nothing else to
do, slipped it into book in his Ii
brary and had forgotten its existence,
The contents did not betray reasonable
intent. Schumann said he never had
any connection with Julius Lesu, the
Wiborg agitator and knew nothing
about the latter's scheme of organ
izing rifle companies. Schunann was
living on pension, as retired officer.
He concluded with saying that his an-
blemished reputation during thirty
years service in the Russian army pro-
tected him against the charge Of trea-

THE DEMOCRACY CAN'T
LOSE THE NEBRASKAN

Washington, Nov. 3.-Eastern leaders
| in the national democratic campaign
have been startled and annoyed by the
sudden conversion of Parker from a
conservative candidate with '.judi=
cial Temperament" into stump speaker
outrivaling Bryan in denlagogy,a his
telegram of congratulation to Bryan
and his abandonment of his early plans
| at the behest of Bryan's old managers.
The eastern men had hoped that this
years campaign, if not successful, at
least would close with the "reorganizer''
element in control Of the party machi1l-
| cry. X
Judge Parker's conduct has compelled
| them to abandon that belief He has
given Bryan the right to say that the
lonly life in the campaign followed a
line Of attack similar to that made in
1906 and 1900, and to claim the right
| of supremacy for the old Bryan crowd,
/ if not Of actual leadership for Bryan
himself. s .a,s
This is regarded feresas the most ser
lious phase of Parker's surrender to
Organism, for no democratic leader con-
tends privately that Roosevelt can be
| defeated.
Bryala's main thought is on the con-
dition of the democratic party after
lelection, for it is not forgotten that in
| learly July, when he believed that he
would be in the minority, and an OUT
| cast, Bryan gave notice that reorgan-
ization movement would be begun after
ELECTION to take the party out Of the
control of those who dominated at the
st. Louis convention.
Bryan then expected that Parker
would hold to his plan Of a ssconserva-
tive candidacy and that his views as
to the issues of the campaign and the
manner Of presenting them would be
! ignored. s
Now that his views have been ac-
cepted by Judge Parker, however, and
| the democratic canvass is under full
swing in the old Bryan way, it is be-
Ilieved here that Bryan will be stronger
| after election than he has ever been
lbefore. Parker cannot now repudiate
| him or his platform.
That IS the serious phase of the pres
| ent situation within the democratic
lparty and democrats here do not hesi-
Itate to say that it means that all the
good work accomplished at St. Louis
lis now lost.
They haven't lost Bryan, as they
hoped to do. On the contrary, they have
tintrenched him more strongly than
| lever, and engrafted his den1agogy on
1.-THE party excepting, of course, TO to
i, about the loss Of which he will mot
Iquarrel with any one. Bryan is glad
Ifo be relieved Of that dead issue. OBJ
Iviously he couldn't cast ii out himself,
thence he IS glad to have others do il
flor MIN.
Parkers surrender to him, it is in
Iterpreted here, means that Bryan

VERDICT BLAMES THE
RUSSIANS FOR KILLINGS

Hull, England, Nov 5. @That
George Henry Smith and William
Leggett were at about 1890 a. m. on
Oct. 22, while out fishing with travis
aboard the British steam trawler
Crane, with board of trade marks ex-
hibited and regulation lights burning,
killed by shots fired without warning
and without proyocation by several
Russian warships at a distance Of about
a quarter Of a mile.
This is the text Of the jury's yer-
dict at the coroneris inquest on the
fishermen, victims of the North Sea
tragedy. AT the request Of the British
government, through the Earl OF Dy-
sart, solicitor general of the treasury,
this conservative award was made by
the first court Of innuiry preliminary TO
The proceedings Of the international tri-
.bunal The government asked the jury
not to find a verdict Of willful murder
or lnanslaughter, because delicate pe-
gotiations are going on which shodld
not be made more difficult, and they
ought not to let any one think they
had been prejudiced before having
heard from both sides In conse-
quence the jury simply set forth the
facts proved by the evidence Of pfysis
clans, experts ON explosives and the
trawIers themselves, To the verdict

ADMIRAL DEWEY MAY BE
ONE OF THE ARBITRATORS

ST. Petersburg, Nov. 3.-The Asso-
ciated Press can authoritatively an
nounce that the basis for the British
Russian agreement to submit the North
Sea incident to a committee insureS an
amicable settlement without a sequel.
The understanding is complete.
In the heat of the excitement fol-
lowing tine incident, many false impress
sions obtained credence abroad. Now
that the smoke has cleared away it is
possible to state that Great Britain dis
claimed any intention of trying to de-
tain the Russian squadron, which could
only be interpreted as hostile act. 1t
was never intimated TO Russia that Vice
Admiral Rojestvensky's recall would be
demanded and Great Britain never ask
ed Russia to pledge herself to the pun
ishment of any one. The British gov
ernment fully realized that officers of
the Russian squadron may have acted
with excess of zeal.
The whole affair was deplorable
mistake, but as a result of the inquiry
which will establish the facts, each gov
ernn1ent is expected to take appro-
pirate action without demands from
either side and no pledges have been
requested or given by either country.
So far as future complications are
concerned the incident is regarded as.
closed, though there has been slight
hitch in the Russo Anglo negotiations
regarding matters relating to the inter-
national commission which has neces-
STATED their transfer here. But they
only cover minor points and are ex-
|pected to be adjusted during the day.
1t is now regarded as almost certain
that the commission will sit in Paris
and be composed Of FIVE naval officers,
one Russian and one British, each pow
er to choose another member and the
four to select a fifth.
Russia has practically named Admir-
al KazanEsoh and Great Britain Admiral
Sir Cyprian Bridge, although the lat-.
tier selection is not absolutely settled.
Great Britain expressed her intention
|of asking that United States naval
officer sit ON the commission, whereup-i
on Russia announced she would select
Ia French officer There is strong in.
|tinlation that Great Britain will invite
Admiral Dewey to be one of the COM
missioncfs. Officers of such character
as those mentioned insure THE accept
lance OF the findings of the commission
lby both countries and the world.
Admiral KazankoH is one of the
Iablest officers in the Russian navy and
Els a courtly man Of conciliatory dispo-
| Isition and judicial temperament He
has practically retired from active SER
Iyice. The high esteem III which he Is
Iheld at the admiralty Is shown by the
fact that he was selected to BE- the adj
lniral to command the Russian squad
IRON which went to New York oii the
occasion Of the worlds fair celebra-
Ition III 1893
II transpircs that FIVE and not four
Russian officers left the squadron at

Petersburg. The fifth Is Capt Clado,
