ferred against the local chief OF police by

is the result OF his declaration not to
stand again for the presidency. But by the
very declaration that he will not be a can
didate again he inevitably limits his OPP
portunities for carrying out the great task
before him. In declaring this resolution
now he is, of course, only repeating the
avowal which he made when returned at
the last presidential election. We have not
the least doubt that he utters IT again in
all sincerity and that he does derive from
It a certain refreshing sense of independ-
ence of party. But there are cases in
which even the most 'unalterable' of reso-
buttons are obliged to yield TO facts. The
president has, owing to the exigencies of
American politics only about three working
years OF power before him and it is difficult
to believe that in this short time he can
carry to a final issue the great reforms
which the Americans expect of him. He
may reply that 1t is enough 10 have set
them going But the struggle Is perhaps
the largest and most complex that an
American statesman has ever had TO face
and It may we'll be that the American
people having once been launched on 1t
would insist that their president should
not desert them. 1t is impossible to pre-
dict the course of events, nor need external
observers take the responsibility of offer
ing advice to the Americans. crisis,
however. seems to be approaching when
President Roosevelt will be needed more
han ever. However, elf-denying are his
attentions, it may be not only undesirable,
Tut impossible for him to abstain from
second candidature."

GIRLS DEAD BODY FOUND
WinOnR Newton of Kansas City May
Have Been Killed After
Quarrel.

KANSAS CITY. Nov. 4.-The dead body
of winona Charlotte Newton, aged 1s
years. daughter of Thomas Newton, a
painter was found today beside a bridge
over small stream near Fifty-fifth street
and College avenue. on the outskirts Of the
city. The girl evidently had been MUIR
dered. The girls face had been disfigured
by many cuts, there were finger marks
on her throat, and a stone weighing $50
pounds weighted down the body.
A hasty examination by Deputy Coroner
Parker at the undertaking rooms to
which the body was taken disclosed that
the stomach contained a large quantity of
acid, but the officers assert that death re-
suited from violence before the acid had
had time to act Above the right eye was
a cut made by a blow delivered with such
force that the skull had been fractured.
The police believe that after the quarrel
the girl swallowed the carbolic acid in an
attempt to commit suiciNe, but say that
she was murdered before the drug took
effect.
Austin Francis, the sweetheart of
winona Charlotte Newton, was arrested
tonight He has successfully resisted all
efforts of the police to force an admission

his mother, Mrs. Laura Cross. at 9013 Penn
street. The police are subjecting him ia
severe sweating process tonight, but he
insists that he went calling last night
and that he knows absolutely nothing OF
the cause of Miss Newton's death. In
his pockets We're found letters from the
girl, and one letter addressed to her which
had not been mailed showed that he in
tended to send her money. Francis had
been a special Waterman for the Rock

he was discharged. He is heavily and
