UTAH MURDERER EXECUTED.
Shot to Death in Yard of State Peni.
Tertiary.

Salt Lake City, April 23.-Frank
Rose, the wife murderer. was shot to
death in the yard of the state peniten-
tiary here at 1909 a. m. Death was
instantaneous. four bullets lodging in
or very close to his heart.
Roses crime was peculiarly atrocious
and cold blooded in that it almost re-
suited in the death Of his two-year-old
son from starvation and cold. Rose,
who claimed his wife was consorting
with other men, shot her on Christmas
day while she was lying in bed. He
sat and talked with her until she died
of the wound, then went away, leav-
ing his boy in bed with his dead
mother and soaked in her blood. Rose
says he returned four times in the next
two days to feed the child, climbing
through a window and over the dead
body of his wife in order to get into
the house. At the end of that time he
went to police headquarters and gave
himself up, stating that he had shot
his wife,
Rose never expressed any sorrow
for his deed and asserted firm belief
that it was all predestined.

Washington, April 23.-''The attor-

that evidence like an old hen on a
door knob for eighteen months. He
has not acted in any way and won't

Representative William Randolph
Hearst made this statement before the

arguing for favorable report on his
resolution calling on the attorney gen.
eral for the evidence against the an.
thracite coal carrying railroads, which
includes the report of the United

JAPs SANK PETRcNpAVLovsK.
Viceroy Aiexieff's Official Report Of thu
Disaster.

st. Petersburg. April 23.-Doubt as
to the cause of the destruction of the
battleship Petropavlovsk and the dam
age to the battleship Pobieda at Port
Arthur on April 13 is dissipated by a
report submitted by telegraph to the
car on April Fl by Viceroy Alexief
who says, in way that leaves the
matter no longer An open question
that mines were responsible for the
disaster.
The admission Of the presence OF
Japanese ships, which were watched
by Admiral Makaroff, off Port Arthur
on the night preceding the going out
OF the Russian ships, tends to confirms
Vice Admiral Togo's assertion that his
ships laid mines on which the Russian
battleships struck.
The viceroy's report was sent after
a thorough investigation, ordered by
the car, had been made. 1t explicitly
says that under the starboard side OF
the Petropavlovsk there was an ex
plosion,' and specifically declares that
mine exploded under the Pobieda.-
That the Russian ships did not run
on their own mines is shown by the
failure of the viceroy to mention any.
thing of the kind and by the posi-
tive statement of the port admiralty
that Admiral Makaroff was familiar
with the location of the torpedoes
defending the port. The Russian Off.
GERS fail to understand the surpris
ing blnnder caused by the mistake
of the Russian torpedo boat destroy
ers in taking the Japanese tornedn
boats for Russian 1otilla, resulting
IN the loss of the Strashni.

CONCERTED JAP MOVEMENT

Seoul, April 10, via Shanghai, April
23.-The belief is general here that no
attempt will be made to cross the Yalu
river for several days, by which time
the arrangements for concerted Jap
anese movement, a simultaneous rush
toward the river from three distinct
points, will have been perfected.
The second Japanese army is sup
posed to have left Japan on April 16;
it probably will attempt to land near
Port Arthur, while other forces will
try to land on the Manchurian- coast
near Takushan, about tifty-five miles
to the west of the mouth of the Yalu,
on the Tatungkao, about forty-five
miles west of the rivers mouth.
