Colorado Springs Victim.

Syracuse, N Y, Dec. 26.-Mr. and
Mrs. Charles r. Kempter of this city.
who believe that their daughter, Mrs.
Bessie Bouton, was the victim of the
awful murder in North Cheyenne
canon, near Colorado Springs, Colo
RADIO, on November 10, state that the
motive was undoubtedly robbery.
According to her parents, Mrs. Bou-
ton was in the employ of drug firm,
for which she travelled all over the
West She owned and usually wore
expensive diamonds, and she carried
watch worth 81 900 when she was here
one year ago to-day, to spend Christ
mas with her relatives. Mrs. Bouton
was twenty-three years old, five feet
two inches in height, and her mouth
was filled with crown and bridgework
estimated to cost 5000. All of these
marks are found on the body of the
dead woman, the teeth being the one
mark of possible identity which the
murderers failed to destroy.
Mrs. Bouton's mother has wired to
another daughter, Mrs. Charles Nelson
of Santa Barbara. California, to hasten
to Colorado Springs and try to estab-
lish whether the dead woman and the
Kempter girl are the same. No word
has yet been received from California
as to whether Mrs. Nelson will make
the investigation OF not.

ply is being exhausted rapidly and in.

ing out of the strike troubles in Grip
pie Creek, have been transferred to
douglas county for trial, by order of
Judge Lewis w. Cunningham, before
whom a motion for change of venue
was argued in chambers here.
Judge Cunningham's decision cov-
ers all cases growing out of the indus
trial strife and in which motions for a
change of venue have been filed. In
answer to the contention of Attorney
S. d. Crump, for the prosecution, that
the application for change of venue
came too late, the court says there is
no doubt whatever that 1t was made
before any plea of guilty had been en-
tered, and that therefore it came in
time.

FAIL TO AGREE
JURY IN NAN PATTERSON CASE
Six Think the Defendant Guilty and
Six Are for Aequittal.

New York. Dec. 24.-Following
day of intense nervous strain. Nan Pat
terson last night is in the Tombs, i'll
and perhaps on the verge of a break
down, but with constant attendance.
The former show girl, expecting ac-
quittal at the hands of the jury which
has listened to the evidence in her
trial for the murder of Caesar Young
last June. went Into the court this noon
to learn that the twelve men chosen to
decide her innocence or guilt had been
unable to reach an agreement; in fact
had divided evenly over the question
As to whether or not she held the revol-
YER which ended Young's life.
The jury stood six to six; half for ac-
Quittal, the others for conviction.
Although no official announcement
was made further than this, court
house talk had 1t that of six deciding
against Miss Patterson none was for
conviction Of murder in the first de-
gree; that one held out for murder in
the second degree. two for manslaugh-
ter in the first degree and three for
manslaughter in the second degree.
Immediately the announcement Of
the verdict was made, Miss Patterson
broke into fit of weeping which con-
tinued even after she was led from the
court room to a retiring chamber.
where physicians were called and re-
storatives administered.
Then she was taken to the Tombs,
but she again wept, moaned and be-
came hysterical, and the efforts Of her
father, the prison matron and attend
ants to quiet her were futile.
The demonstration in the court
room after the announcement Of the
disagreement was somewhat remark
able, many pressing forward to express
sympathy for the young woman.

zemstvo.' Appeal Refused.

st. Petersburg, Dec. 24.-Emperor
Nicholas formally notified the country
to-day that agitation for constitution
and the conyocation of a national as
sembly is useless.
Such is the construction placed upon
the Endorsement written In his own
hand on the resolutions telegraphed by
the Chernigov Zemstvo December 10th,
begging him in the most loyal manner
to convocate legally elected members
of the zemstvos to present a program
of reforms for his consideration. The
Emperor wrote on the dispatch:
II consider the act of the president
to be presumptuous and tactless. Ques-
tions of state administration are OF no
concern of the zemstvos, whose func-
tions and rights are clearly defined by
the law"
The Endorsement is printed in the
Official Messenger, dashing the hopes
of the extremists. 1t does not come as
a great surprise. The Emperor from
the beginning, although he has shown
himself favorably disposed toward a
more liberal regime, and In entire sym
pathy with some of the zemstvo de-
mands had resolved not to yield the
principle of autocracy. Upon this point
1t is understood all his advisers, in
Guiding Interior Minister Sviatopolk-
Mirsky. agreed, but the character OF
the agitation which followed the meet
ing of the presidents of the zemstvos
and the action of the various provin
cial zemstvos and municipal councils,
coupled with the recent demonstra-
tions at st. Petersburg, Moscow
and elsewhere probably served to
strengthen the hands Of the reaction
aries and convinced the Emperor Of
the imperative necessity for plain
spoken announcement of the sover.
eign's position upon the main point.

London, Dec. ga dispatch to a

it can be stated on reliable authority
that the manifesto on the subject of
reforms approved by Emperor Nicho-
las will contain four points, as fol-
lows.
First. each zemstvo shall send to the
Council of State three representatives
to advise on the question Of internal
affairs; second, the press censorship
shall be abolished and the press made
free: third. freedom OF conscience
shall be allowed. and fourth. element

men left London In August 1903. in a
brig belonging to Major Daniels,
touching first at Sydney. Australia,

is not probable that the entire Island
was explored. although It is safe to as
sume that no important territory was
left unvisited. The Denver letter
speaks OF exhaustive data secured.
which will be published in London.
