ERNOR OF ILLINOIS,

Chicago, July 29.-Johann Hoch,
"Bluebeard" and confessed bigamist,
who was sentenced to be hanged Fri
day for poisoning one of his wives,
was granted a reprieve Friday after
noon until Aug. rs by Governor De-
neen. The stay of execution followed
hours of anxiety on the part of Hoch,
who had never given up hope and was
allowed by the governor only after the
latter had been assured that the ne
cessary sum to appeal the case had
been raised. The amount. $500, was
given by an attorney and friend OF
Hoch's counsel. The attorney declared
he was actuated by purely humani
tartan motives.
An incident at the jail during the
preparations for the execution was the
appearance of physician and WON
an who told Jailer Whitman that they
wanted TO help in Hoch's battle for life
They said they wished to raise funds
for the condemned man and asked Jail
err Whitman to delay the hanging as
long as possible. Hoch's attorney

munication with the authorities re
specting the stay of sentence

DISSOLUTION OFUNION
BOTH HOUSES OF SWEDISH PAR.
LAMENT ADOPT REPORT
OF COMMITTEE.

Stockholm, July 2S.-Both houses Of
the Swedish parliament have ap-
proved the report of the special COM
mittee appointed by parliament to deal
with the crisis between Norway and
Sweden. In the first chamber the re-
port was adopted without debate.
In the second chamber the recon-
mendation In the report regarding ne
gotiations for dissolution was adopt
unanimously, but there was some
objection to the proposed loan of $751;
100000 to meet the new conditions.
About score of members voted
against the loan, the Social Democrat
leader, Herr Branting, pointing out
the danger of militarism and declar-
ing that the proposed loan was con-
trary to the peaceful spirit of the
recommendation to negotiate. It was
a dangerous precedent, he said. for
Sweden never heretofore had bor-
rowed money for military purposes.
and he feared Norway would regard it
as being in: the nature of a threat Of
way. This view was contested by
other apeaksrs, who pointed out that
the rlksdag, by it's unanimous ap-
proval a the condition Of dissolution,
had voiced it, willingness to dissolve
the union and it's desire for peace
both In the present and In the future.

Alleged Frauds.

Alleged Frauds.
Washington, July 31.-A picked CON-
mission of government officers has
been sent West by Secretary Hitch
cock to aid in exposing new lines OF
graft in three important branches OF
the government service. The tnvestl-
gators will examine into certain al
legged frauds in the general land Offices
Of several states, in the forestry serv-
ice and in the reclamation service.
The commission will go first to
Deadwood, S. D. 1t will spend two or
three weeks in that state and will then
move to other sections where allega-
lions OF irregularities have been made.
The commission will inquire into GER
tain alleged frauds in connection with
the irrigation service. It has been
charged that advance information has
been given to persons concerning areas
to be irrigated by the government,
thus enabling them to take out land
claims within the region to be wa
tered.
Many complaints have lately been
made to Secretary Hitchcock regard
ing trespassing on government forest
reserves. Bold thieves have invaded
the federal forests and cut timber
therefrom.
The commission will also look into
the charge that frauds existing in the
public land service in a number Of
states have been overlooked in the
general investigation that has been
made of these matters in the past

vORABLY RECEIVED.

Rulers Message Announcing the
Governments Intention to Resist
Too Onerous Conditions-lnfluence
at Work Tending to Unity the Ma
ton Should the War Continue.
St. Petersburg, Aug. 1.-Emperor
Nicholas martial message to the Oren-
burg clergy in which he expressed his
determination never to conclude a
peace dishonorable to Russia or un-
worthy of her greatness and which
was gazetted Sunday, was reprinted In
every paper in Russia Monday. 1t
has struck responsive chord in many
quarters, even among the friends OF
peace. The emperor's words, how
ever, by no means bear out the con-
struction placed upon them by the
jubilant war party, nor do they at all
exclude the idea of successful ter
mination Of the Apr reaching negotia-
tons at Portsmouth, but certainly
strengthen the militant spirit aroused
by the cabled versions of the Sato in
terviews and the cold figures repre-
senting the supposed extent of the
contribution to be demanded by Japan.
Subsequent explanations have failed
to eftace this idea of oppression en-
tirely and many voices have been
raised to the government to resist too
onerous conditions. For example the
merchants of Moscow, who are large
~ old believers and who control much
of the wealth of the nation, are send
ing an address to General Linevitch to
express confidence that the army will
defend Russia's honor and that hui
initiating peace will not be made.
While many influences tending to
unity the nation If it should be neces~
sary to continue the war are evidently
in operation, no disposition is shown
to anticipate the result of the peace
conference nor to make the task of the
peace commissioners more difficult,
and M. Whites presence at the head
of the MISSION IL regarded as Z suaran-
tee that acceptance of basis Of peace
will be found if possible.
