This Is the season when the ohronicler

the dressmakers and give her attention to
the wearers of modish frocks and hats,
for the shopping and dressmaking are

Nothing new is appearing In the shops,
though the summer sales are attractive
enough to draw crowd OF women. AL
most all OF the cottons and linens are
marked down to tempting figures and many
Of the summer silks and woolens and silk
and wool mixtures have shared the same
fate. There is long season still before

WOMAN TO GALLOWS
Mrs. Assie Meyers, Convicted Of MUIR
derins Her. Husband, Sentenced to
Hang August 11-crime One Of the
Worst Ever Committed in Missouri.

Kansas City, June 24.-Mrs. Aggie
Meyers, who was found guilty at Lib
erty, Mo, recently, of murder in the
first degree was today refused a new
trial and was sentenced to hang August
IL. She was convicted with Frank
Hoffman, who was infatuated with her,
of killing the womans husband.
The crime was most cold -blooded.
Hoffman, who is now under sentence Of
death for his part in the crime, testi-
fed at the woman's trial she had urged
him to kill Meyers and had let him into
their home on the night of the mur-
der, had given her husband a sedative
to put him to sleep. Then while he
cried to her for help, she first struck
him over the head with a bed slat and
then slashed his throat and back with
a scissors and razor. Hoffman had at
first stunned Meyers with a billiard cue.
Hoffman was arrested in Montana
where he had escaped on money fur
nished by Mrs. Meyers. Since her ar
| rest Mrs. Meyers had shown practi-
cally no emotion, and when sentence
was passed, she smiled. The defend-
ant will have until November next to
file an appeal.

Finds That Premier Rouyier
Has Left Many Questions
Open For Discussion
NEGOTIATIONS WILL PROCEED
Germany Apparently Yields to the
View That it Would be Discourteous
to Powers Invited to Conference to
Arrange Matters in Advance With
France.

Berlin June 24.-Foreign office Off
Gals are busily engaged in studying
the French note on Morocco. 1t is of
the usual length, which will necessar-
fly delay answering. AS the study of
Premier Rouvier's answer progresses,
the fact becomes evident that he left
many points open for discussion, and
from which further negotiations can
continue. The greatest difference now
seems to be in agreeing on whether
Germany and France, shall seek to
reach a separate agreement before the
meeting of the conference, thus elm
mating many matters from interna-
tional action. Germany apparently
yields to the view it would be an act
of discourtesy to the powers which
have already agreed to attend the con-
ference If she arranged any matters
beforehand with France. Official cir
cles here continue to follow the affair
with keen interest, but without any
think like excitement, must less belli-
cose inclination.

GOVERNOR OF HAWAII QUITS.
Carter Follows Resignation to Wash
inaton to See the President.

Carter Follows Resignation to wash
inaton to See the President.
Honolulu, June Ex-Governor Carter,
who mailed his resignation to Presl-
dent Roosevelt Wednesday, sailed yes
terday for Washington to discuss the
matter of his retirement from the gov
ernorship. He had been in cable cor
respondence with the president regard
ing it, and had received permission to
visit the national capital for a person
al interview.
Governor Carter said he had urged
President Roosevelt to accept his res
ignation and appoint successor. His
action, it is declared, was not due to
the election of E. M. Brown as high
sheriff but had been under consider
alton for some time.
It was first written June 8, but was
withheld on the advice of friends, who
asked him not to send it to Washington,
The resignation was the elimination OF
a long series of events, which led Gov
ernor Carter to the conclusion that ne
could be of more service to the ter
ritory of Hawaii outside the Suber-
Material chair than in that position
Territorial Secretary Atkinson arriv-
ed during the day from China. He had
been regarded as likely to succeed
Governor Carter. This has been found
to be impossible, as he is only "a years
of age, while the law requires the gov
ernor to be at least 35 years old.
Among those mentioned as possible
appointees to the office of III. e. Coop
er, w. o. Smith, Edward Tonney, H. p.
Baldwin and Senator Dowsett.

DEMANDS ON NORWAY
An Uncompromisins Element in swed-

Terms to Sweden and MobiIizing Of

Stockholm, June 24.-An uncompro-
MIXING element in the riksdag is ac-
lively prosecuting campaign in favo,
of presenting to Norway demands rep
resenting Sweden's irreducible mini
mum and obtaining guarantees from
Norway before passing bill conferrine
on the government powers to negotiate
terms for formal separation of Nor
way and Sweden. This faction consid-
ers the government ought to be author
lied to contract an emergency loan OF
$20,000,00O and mobilize troops to sup
port Sweden's demand. The govern
ment, however, has still the strong
united backing of the moderate party
which is prepared to eltrust the kline
and ministry with the powers de-
manded for untrammeled negotiations
in regard to necessary guarantees te
be given before agreeing to dissolu-
ton of the union.

"It is almost as inconceivable that

about peace between Japan and Rus

"In this great crisis the United
States had the great advantage OF not
having been so far entangled in any
Of the complicated relations which
embarrass the western powers. but
President Roosevelt had taken the
right time, and used the right means

Railoa7 Commissioner N. S. Ket-
chum of Marshalltown, and four of the
justices Of the supreme court, are the
not expire next year The supreme
judges whose terms do not expire are
Judges Weaver, Ladd, Bishop and
Deemer. Some of the newspapers have
complained that politics was talked
this year in spite of the promise that
with elections two years off the state
would be given rest. In view Of the
large number of men to be elected it
is believed it can hardly be said that
there has been great deal of dis
cussion as to candidates. There has
been some little talk of candidates for
governor, some as to secretary of state
and some as to treasurer. Aside from
these three principle state offices there
are whole host of elective and ap-
pointive offices that have not even
been thought of thus far. The closer
the session of the legislature draws
the more leading politicians are con-
vinced that the next legislature will
develop the candidates for the prin-
ciple offices as we'll as those for rail-
road commissioner and all the other
offices. Straight thru from governor to
constable everything will be elected a
year from the coming fall, state, dis
trict, county and township. But be-
tween that time and this a state leg
islature will probably reconsider its
proposition to abolish the railroad
commission, discuss and probably pass
an anti-pass law and a state wide
primary law, receive the report of the
committee on board of control for
educational institutions and in some
form or other have up every other
question of state Importance. 1t is
quite easy to believe, therefore, that
the legislature will do more than any
thing else to develop and determine
the candidates for the offices.
