entire length of his body. His young
son was with him and gave the alarm,
but the man was dead before help
reached him. Jiron is survived by a
widow and five small children, the
oldest about twelve years of age. He
was a relative of Lorenzo Martinez.
About four or five years ago Jiron S
son was driving the same team when
one of them kicked the boy on the
head killing him instantly. The same
team took a run around the plaza in

Ia TOILETTE MAY
REMAIN GOVERNOR
To Decline Election
to United States
Senate
FIRST MAN TO REFUSE SEAT
Extra Session of Wisconsin
Legislature is Called to
Name Senator.

Madison, Wis, Nov. Ex-Governor
La Toilette has decided to remain in
Wisconsin as chief executive of the
Badger state, and to refuse the cleo
tion OF the United States Senate, ten
dered to him at the session of the
state legislature last winter
His intention became known, last
night, when he issued a call for a
special session of the legislature, to
convene December 4th. Well informed
politicians say that at the opening of
the legislature the Governor will de-
cline the election to the United
States Senate.
First to Refuse Seat.
If the Governor takes this action he
will be. the first man in the United
States who has refused seat in the
Senate Some Of his followers still
claim that the Governor is going to
the Senate and that the special ses-
sion has been called to remedy the
law relative to the rebuilding of the
capitol, which was destroyed by fire
two years ago.
However, few believe this is the real
reason for the call. When Governor
La Toilette was chosen to succeed Sen
atOr Quarrels, he announced in an
address to the legislature that if the
acceptance of the Office would inter
fere with his promise to the people
to carry out certain reforms, he was
TO return to the legislature the sena
torial commission.
May Name Stephenson.
Already there is much speculation
as to whom will be selected to fill the
place refused by the Governor It is
said that Isaac Stephenson, of Mari
nette, veteran lumber barron, is the
likely choice of a majority of the LIZ
Toilette men, and as they control the
Legislature, he will be the probable
selection.

Tarbell said the system of loading"

The surplus of the Equitable at the
end of 1894, Tarbell said, was about
$70,000,000 and was set aside for de-
ferred dividends, but the company
does not recognize any right of the
policy holder in this $70,O00,000 until
his policy has matured, or reached a
point at which 1t has earned its divi-
dend. This $7O,000,OO0 could be used

AT noon the hour of the crisis that
was TO determine the question of peace
or war was fixed at 3 o'clock. AT night
the official announcement was made that
several days will in all probability be
consumed by the cnvoyS in the discus
sion OF the subject under consideration
That topic was the first clause of the
Japanese demand. What it is can only
be conjectured
The Russian cnvoyS advocated pub
licity of deliberations. The Japanese
opposed it. Hence the present mystery.
1t is announced that the cession of
Sakhalin is not now under consdera-
ton.
lnaSmuch as several days may be re-
CURED to reach a decision, it is sug-
geSted that the proposed limitation Of
Russian naval strength in the Pacific is
the present bone of contention.
The most gratifying augur in favor
of peace is the announcement by NJ
Whites secretary that the japanese en-
voyS have shown disposition to treat
for peace in Il conciliatory attitude, and
that they manifest disposition toward
moderation.
1t was ! o'clock p NJ. before the en-
voyS left their quarters in the general
Storehouse building at the navy yard.
The Japanese arrived first at the hotel,
and Immediately repaired to their apart
mentS, where they made ready for din
ner.
Mr.. Sato, the ENJOYS spokesman, made
the Russian apartments the storm CEN
ter for the correspondents by announc-
ing that Mr.. KaraStovicz had been dele
gated to issue a statement of the days
result One hour later that official ar
rived and issued the following:
"The Japanese having received an an
swer. the first clause of the Japanese
demands was under consideration when
the conference adjourned at o'clock.
to meet Sunday afternoon at 3 o'clock" -"
The Mathews journal. (Mathews C.H. [Court House]) 1903-1937, 1905-08-17

Articles and 3 OF the peace terms and
AZ o'clock adjourned for the day.
While 1t was officially 81 (ed these arti-
cleS were Nos. and :. it is believed
they were not these, but articles taken
at random.
At the morning session Article I,
which is understood 10 relate 10 the fu-
ture of Korea, was passed upon. The
agreement on this article was reached
after the language had been modified
to nearer meet the wishes of the Rus
sian plenipotentiarieS, but TO what cx-
tent cannot be definitely stated NJ.
Witte had insisted that Japan'S purpose
was to make a dependency of Korea,
and he wanted the language OF he arti-
Gle to conform TO Japan's real inten-
tionS. Nj. Witte was prepared from the
beginning to accept the article. his only
objection being as TO the form He
wanted the language at least to show
that japan intended to establish a pro-
tectorate over Korea.
The second article is believed to relate
to the evacuation of Manchuria by Rus
Sia.
For the first time since this confer
ence of peace began one of the ENJOYS
representing Japan spoke on the situa-
ton as it has developed
Mr. Takahira, the Japanese minister
to the United States and one of the
two peace ENJOYS of the Mikado, in the
course of an interview after the adjourn
ment of the last session of the day. ex-
pressed the highest satisfaction with the
progress already made by the confer
ence He distinctly declined to make
any prediction as to the future or to
forecast success or failure of the ne
gotiationS But he left no doubt as to
his feelings of satisfaction that an agree
ment on the articles of the Japanese
proposition now under consideration had
been reached without serious hitch

YELLOW FEVER SPREADS
Despite the Work Of Federal
Authorities.

New Orleans (SpeciaD The second
month of the fight against yellow fever
in New Orleans began Monday with
reports of new cases higher than those
for Sunday. There were II deaths each
day. The disease is slowly spreading,
despite the magnificent work OF the
Federal authorities, but the increase in
new cases outside of the city is almost
mperceptible
With the exception Of a few squares,
all New Orleans below Canal street is
now generally infected with yellow fever
While most havoc has been caused in
this portion of New Orleans where for
cigners live, the disease has spread to
many places in what is known as the
American quarter, above Canal street.
Cases in the American quarter are iso-
lated, however. Health officers are still
unable to assert whether the highwater
mark OF daily new cases has been reach
ed. About IS per cent. OF all those thus
far stricken have recovered, the deaths
being about one in every six persons in
fccted.
The Marine Hospital Service is ex-
tending its aid to any outlying places
where yellow fever appears, and ef-
forts arc daily making to perfect in
spcctiOn and isolation The Marine Hos
pital Service will take general charge
of the street and house sanitation. While
yellow fever - not a filth disease in it
self. yet experience shows that persons
who live in unsanitary surroundings are
much more likely to die of the disease
when they contract ii than those who
live in better environments.
Prosecution of those who have not
paid obedience to the anti-mosquto or
dinance IS also TO be participated in by
Federal officers. Sweeping orders Gave
again been issued TO the police to pros
! ccutc all landlords and agents who fail
to screen ciSterns.

Evidence of the SoundncSs OF the mos
quito theory continues TO be made pub
lie. The experience of AlgierS is cited.
Three weeks ago there was a death in
the heart of the town OF. 4 typical case
of yellow fever. The case had been
promptly reported and all modern pre-
cautions were taken. Enough time has
elapsed to have permitted infected mos

PhOSCene.

The use of ether as an anaesthetic

Under the same circumstances chlorO-

He said that the Japanese had entered
into the discussion in the best of spirit.
that the utmost harmony prevailed, and
that the Japanese showed a disposition
to treat the subject as persons desiring
its satisfactory settlement
NJ. Witte talked interestingly relative
to the negotiations now in progress.
The Japanese ENJOYS made no formal
answer to the answer submitted by my
government" he said They suggested
that we take up the demands point by
point for discussion. While we had diff
ferent ideas, we met their desires There
are twelve Japanese demands. Figuring
up on two days consideration for each,
the length of the deliberations give
promise of continuing twenty-four days
at least.
The subjects under discussion mean
either war or peace. We shall do every
thing in our power to bring about peace
II the war continues, there will be the
shedding of the blood of 100000 more
men. Then other countries may become

NJ. Witte declared that he courted the
fullest publicity of the terms and their
discussion. He said he had come TO the
United States with the idea of taking the

he had been met with the objection OF
the Japanese to any such proceedings.
He said he wished to deny explicitly

FOUGHT INSANE MAN.
Lighthouse Keepers Terrible Experience FOr
Seven DAYS.

New York (SpeciaD. - Stratford
Shoals Light. and perhaps the big Long
Island Sound steamers which are
guided by it, were saved last week
through the heroic struggle which the
keeper OF the light. Merrill HulSe, made
tor seven days against an insane man,
marooned alone with the keeper and de-
tcrmined to extinguiSh the light.
The madman was HulSe'S brother
keeper, Julius CoStcr, who went crazy
and tried TO destroy the light. In at
temptS to get at the light Coster wanted
to kill HulSe
The story of the lone keepers defense
OF the Stratford Shoals was made pub
lie when the head keeper, Gilbert l..
Rutland, who was ashore on a vacation
last week, handed in his official report
OF last weeks happenings The light
house is situated on Long Island, mid
way between Bridgeport and Port JET
ferSon.
Hulse had no warning that he was
living with an insane man until one day
CoSter attacked him with a weapon
made of razor laShcd TO the end of a
long pole. The keeper overpowered
COster, and repeatedly aiterward, dur
ing the first two days of his compan-
ions madness, was forced to fight for
his own life. Then CoStcr'S mania took
a new turn, and one afternoon Hulse
found him with a hammer and chiSel
trying TO cut away the walls of the
light house. That night the light sud-
denly stopped revolving, and its keeper
ran to the lamp room TO find COSter with
an AK about to destroy the lenses. He
fought his way into the room and saved
the light, and from that time on, for
fully five days. doing two mems work,
the brave keeper was forced both
to guard the lenses day and night, and
to fight many times for his own life,
and finally toward the end of this period
another burden was laid on him. As
CoSter's delrium wore off he became
desirouS OF committing suicide, so that
when removed from the light house he
bore self-inlcted gaShes all over his
neck, which only Hulse's faithful watch
fulness had kept from becoming fatal
