WOMAN TO BE HANGED
AGNES MEYERS WILL SWING FOR
 MURDER OF HUSBAND.
Crime Committed by Female F1end with Param0uF as AccOmplice, was One of the Most AtrociOus on
 Record,

Liberty. Mo-. June 11s--The jury which has been sitting for the past week in the case of Agnes Meyers of Kansas City. charged with the murder of her husband, Clarence Meyers. re- turned a verdict of guilty of murder In the first degree.
 This verdice means that the death penalty by hanging Is to be inflicted. When the jury retired at II o'clock last night 1t stood ten for conviction and two for acduittal.
 It was not until the most urgent arr Ruments were presented by the ten men in favor of conviction that the oth- CT two were prevailed upon to change their votes.
 The crime for which Mrs. Meyers was convicted was one of the most atrocious ever committed. According to the story of her paramour. Frank Hoffman, who confessed to being an accomplico of Mrs. Meyers in the murder of her husband, the crime was premeditated and was executed in the most brutal manner. Hottman was tried last Feb ruary for the crime and was convicted and is now awaiting the death pen- alty.
 According to Hottman's confession he was admitted to the Meyer home at an early hour on the morning of May 10. 1904, by Mrs. Meyers. in accordance with a prearranged plan to kill MT. Meyers. After Mrs. Meyers had ad> rninistered a drug to her husband to compel him to sleep. Hottman went to the bedside of the sleeping man and dealt him a blow with a billiard cue. This served to arouse Meyers who grap' pied with Hottman. and as the latter was intoxicated. Meyers was getting the better of the fight when Mrs. Mey- CTS struck her husband with bed slat and later cut his throat with a razor repeatedly She then stabbed the dying man in the back half a dozen times with a pair of scissors.
 The confession of Hottman was the strongest evidence of the State against Mrs. Meyers. Hottman testified volun- tarily against the woman and he was offered no immunity by the prosecu- tfon

RUSSIA WAITING FOR JAPAN
 TO MAKE KNOWN HER TERMS

overcome. Russia probably will in- sist on holding the railroad to Vladi- vostok through Northern Mnachuria, and will never submit to the humilia- ton of disarmament in her only port in the Pacific nor to the inhibition against having warships in those wa ters.
 Considering the situation of the two countries, members of the diplomatic corps feel that Japan's status in the Pacific Is so firmly established that she can afford to dispense with the ex- action of so bitter a condition. Though the feeling against a cession of actual territory is strong. the island of Sak- haIin, over which Japan and Russia once exercised co-dominion, might be ceded, or as an offset to the cession of that island, all fishing and other Rus sian rights in the Kommander islands might be handed over to Japan.
 In spite of official dubiousness as to the result, well defined report was current today, although the Associated Press could not trace its source, that Russia had already practically obtained Japan's conditions, and that they proved so surprisingly moderate that Russia would certainly accept them as a basis for negotiations.
 Papers Praise Roosevelt.
 Newspapers supposed to have official inspiration are loud in their skepticism regarding the practical results of Presi- dent Roosevelt's action, which perhaps is quite natural. The radical papers continue their tactics, insisting that al- though the conclusion of hostiiities is desirable, a disgraceful peace would be intolerable and that only a national as- sembly should decide the question of war or peace. The liberal papers pro- fess to fear that peace would strength en the government and give a setback to reforms, but shrewd observers real ize that the government, with the end of the war, would be confronted with the most difficult problems, one of the greatest of which would be what to do with an army of half million men dis gruntled with the results of the war.
 With the single exception of the No- voc Vremya the newspapers, whether they believe In peace or not, join in a chorus of praise of President Roose- vents friendly and we'll intentioned &C., ton.
 The Novoe vremya, on the contrary, calls it an advertising dodge and con- tinues to charge the President with playing the Japanese game and harks back to his action in the case of the Russian ships at Manila as proof of his unfriendliness.
 No report from Rear Admiral Nebo- gatoff has yet been received and this fact, combined with the wording of the Emperor's recent despatch to Vice Ad- miral Rojestvensky, Is creating endless talk throughout the city.
 The fact that Russia, according to the statement of the foreign office. does not propose to name plenipotentiaries in the first instance, is the subject of much gossip and there is even an at- tempt to give 1t sensational turn. but 1t is pointed out that this course avOidl delay as 1t permits the reception of Ja- pans conditions at any place named by Japan and their consideration by Russia with view of determining whether they afford a basis for nego- tiation.

LOUISVILLE EN FETE
PREPARATIONS FOR REUNION OF
 THE VETERANS.
General Joe Wheeler Arrives on the Scene and Finds Everything in Shipshape order COnven-
 tiOn Opens Wednesday.

Louisville, June 11.--Decorations, with the stars and bars and the stars and stripes entwined. blossoming forth on all the buildings along the main thoroughfares and the sight of a few gray uniforms about the streets told the citizens of Louisville today that re- union week had arrived and that the city soon would be overfiowing with the hosts of the United Confederate Veterans.
 It Is estimated that between twenty and thirty thousand visitors from all over the South and West, with a sprinkling from the North will be en- tertained during the week, In addition to these visitors from a distance, from 30,000 to 50,000 more from the immedi- ate vicinity of Louisville will pour into the city on Friday, when 5000 or 10000 veterans will march.
 When General Joseph Wheeler, the first of the distinguished guests to put in his appearance. arrived today from New York, he found every detail of the arrangements for the reception of his comrades and their friends arranged. Not a hitch has occurred thus far and none is expected to occur. The visi- tors will find accommodations and the heartiest welcomes for each and every one of the thousands expected. In fact, the reunion promises to be the most successful ever held. especially in point of the number of veterans them selves
 General stephen D. Lee, commander in-chief, with his stan and the Missis- sippi delegation, will arrive tomorrow night and from that time on until Wednesday morning. the day for the formal opening of the reunion, special trains from all points in the South will pour in their thousands. A feature of the reunion will be the attendance of some 200 Indians from Georgia, North Carolina and Indian Territory who fought on the Confederate veterans side during the Civil War.
 The conventions of the United Con- federate Veterans and the Sons of Vet erans, which will begin Wednesday, and the parade, which will take place Fri day. are of course the principal events of the reunion, but in addition to these there will be two grand balls for the sponsors and maids of honor besides & number of spectacles arranged for the free entertainment of the veterans.
 The reunion proper begins Wednes- day morning and ends Friday after noon, but number of entertaining fea- lures will be continued Saturday for those who desire to remain.

 Planters along the line of the road who used Chinese help also have been obliged to let them go. While the Chinese do not shirk work or play off they are very slow and have not strength enough for the heavy work. The only Chinamen retained on the road are the cooks and their assist ants

In his appeal to the contending nations the President has acted with so much tact and has been so circumspect and dis erect, yet withal so enthusiastic, that no matter what may be the final out come he has the fullest claim on the deep thanks of all men who desire the termination of this long and terrible war.
