PRISON FOR THIRTY YEARs.

New York. April IS. Julius Bckel, convicted last week in Jersey City for the killing of his wife Alice, whom 44e shot and killed last winter, at the same time killing Mrs McDermott, was to- day sentenced to thirty years at hard labor on each count. He was taken to New Jersey state prison to begin his term
Waterbury evening Democrat., 1904-04-18

sHe said, MT Chairman, so far as the best advices we can get will in form us, neither Japan nor Russia have to-day a submarine torpedo boat; but let me say in addition what Ad- miral Dewey said to me last Friday. He said, From what the Japanese have done with their surface torpedo boats at Port Arthur. if they had had submarines, they would have gone into the harbor and destroyed every Russian ship. se1
 'gThis leads to the natural conclu- sion that if either of those govern 1nents did possess submarines, the fact would have been known to the ad- lniral of our navy, as we'll as to the navy department and to congress.
 With regard to Russia, it is a well known fact that some years ago, she did experiment. with diving type of submarine, but from all accounts, they were such utter failures-on of them standing on end--that the inventor finally abandoned the idea of the div ing boat as being impractical, and when last heard from. it s said, he wa | trying to perfect some kind of butter making machine.
 statements have recently been made to the effect that Russia to-day pos seases another type of submarine, the report going so far as to state that two or three of them are stationed at Port Arthur. If that is true, why have they not been used against the enemy l? Surely ample opportunity has been of fered almost daily since the outbreak of the war. It is safe to say that if anyone, in any country outside of our own and especially in Russia, perfected an invention capable of working de Nstruction to the enemy, it's inventor would be received with open arms by the czar, there would be no honor too good or great to confer on him, and he would everywhere be hailed as the saviour not only of the nations honor, but the one who had saved them from such ignominious defeats.
 St Petersburg, April 1S-At at tempted landing by Japanese troops on the shores of Korea bay, between Port Arthur and the Yalu river, April 12, was frustrated by the Russians. A Japanese torpedo boat tiotilla secuted the shores of the bay, but was received with such a heavy fire from land batteries at Taku-Shan, Ching Tai-Tse. Tschanhe and Bedzino that it retired.
 St Petersburg. April IS, $40 D m.- The authorities here are recovering from the depression which followed last weeks disaster. The public is thirsting for revenge. The Russ ex- ira bulletin boards are constantly sur rounded, although little fresh news is posted.
