CHRlSTEN WITH Oil
Kansas Will Not Use Champagne o,
Water in Naming Her
BattIeship.

Topeka, Kan, March 27.-The bat
tleship Kansas will be christened by
breaking a bottle of Kansas crude Oil
over It's prov in the place Of a bottle
of champagne. as is the usual custom.
This is the idea of Governor Hoch as
expressed by him today.
The statement was made in a con-
versation with A. d. Eddy, general
counsel OF the Standard Oil company
who is here from Chicago. !.
"The last time / saw you. governor
remarked Mr.. Eddy, you expected to
make a trip east this spring TO attend

THAT has been postponed until

II would like to attend that launch

marked L. j. Evans, attorney for the
Standard Oil company in ansas whc
was present.

WOMEN HYPNOTIzED
EACH The OTHER
After Sleeping Tor Two Weeks
the Younger Has Died
Of Starvation.
Elder Woman, Mother 10 Younger, e
Now Showing Signs Of Death
Neither Could Give the 9th
or the Suggestion.

New York, March 2T.-One of the.
most remarkable cases In h eSpef1-5
ence Of the doctors in h Presbyterian
hospital in this city ended today in the.
death of Miss Luella Huestis Of Mt.
Vernon, who. with her mother, Mrs
James H. Huestis. had been In a
trance for fifteen days prior to her
death.
More than two weeks ago the women
were found unconscious at the home OF
Henry w. Heller, a lawyer of this city,
and were supposed Ito iaVe-been
asphyxiated by gas. Neither mas since
recovered consciousness, and physicians
and hypnotists arc puzzled by their un-
accountable coma.
Couldn't Get Nourishment.
Miss Huestis was an attractive young
aged %, and lack of nourish-
ment was the principal cause of her
death, as 1t had been impossible to
give her food except In liquid form and
through a tube Stirnulants In oSy~
gen were administered without effect.
The singular fact is that the young
woman's mother, who lay In an ad-
Joining room, began to show signs OF
the approach OF death soon after the
death of her daughter. Like her daugh-
ter, the mother also is greatly emaci-
ated, and the physicians at the hospital
say her low vitality is due practically
to starvation. One specialist in hypno-
tism andepsychology who investigated
the case has made public his conclu-
sion that the two women had unco1,-
sciously h%ypnotized each other, and
that gas asphyxiation had nothing tc
do with the case.
The Hypnotism Theory.
The theory of mutual %hypnotislm has
been accepted by the greater number
of those who have made a study OF the
case. The two having gone tc
sleep. each under control of the other
neither can waken until the sugges,
tion is received from the other. In thi:
condition, there was no way of bring
ing an outside influence on the mind q
either that would break the spell. Al
their long sleep progressed, the mint
of each acting and reacting IN that o
the other, the tendency was for tn,
sleep to become deeper and deeper.

AMBASSADOR is DEAD.
Was First Representative Of the First
Class from Mexico to This
Country.

Washington, March ~2S.-Senor Don
Manuel de Aspiroz, Mexico S first am
bassador to the United States, died at
the Mexican embassy, surrounded by
his family.
Although sick since last fall the am
bassador's death was due to exposure
on Inauguration day. Against the adj
vice of his physician Senior Aspiros at
tended the ceremonies at the capitol,
where he came near fainting.
Born at Puebla, Mexico, June 9, 1885,
Senior de Aspiros studied law, but left
his law office to enter the Mexican
army. He rendered gallant service
in the uprising Of his country against
the French intervention, and rose from
second lieutenent to colonel. After the
fall Of Queretaro he was appointed
prosecuting attorney in the courtmar-
tial Of Maximillian, Marimon and Me-
jai.
The imperial house of Austria has
always taken the position that Aspiros,
through his connection with the court
martial, was in part responsible for
Maximillian's execution, and during the
early service of Mr.. Aspiros in Wash
ington his proved of keen embarrass-
ment. Finally it was arranged that
when brougt together at official func-
tons these two diplomats would eX-
change formal greetings. This, how
ever was not until an embarrassing
incident had occurred at the White
House during the administration of
President Mckinley, when the Mexican
ambassador was assigned to escort to
the dining room the wife of the AuStri-
an ambassador, and the latter felt
compelled to decline.

EMPEROR is SENTENCED.
Fighting Socialists Said to Have
Marked Car for Death.

s.. Petersburg, March 2S.-The industrial
problem in ST. Petersburg has again en-
tered upon a difficult stage. the owners
of many factories having, in consequence
of continued quitting and returning by
their employees, decided to close down thei:
works entirely. locking out 3O,0O men. The
idle workmcn are in an ugly frame of
mind. The machinery in one Of the big
mills was wrecked yesterday and the
spirit of disorder is in the air. Trouble is
expected and it is believed the wilder spir-
it's are now not without bombs and other
weapons of defense and reprisal. Guard
officers continue to receive warning that
they will sign their death warrants IL they
order the troops to fire, and a social dem
ocratic propaganda OF demonstration ard
disturbance is evident. The proprictors of
the cotton mills and wooden mills which
nave been operating on the smallest pos
sible margin of profit are generally PLAN
ming to pay off and discharge their en-
ployes, trying with the aid of the authors
ties to send them back to the villages.
1t is openly stated among the workmcu
that the fighting wing of tie social revo-
lut:onists has passed sentence of death on
thirty high personages, the list being
headed with the name OF Grand Duke
Alexieff and ending with that or the en-
peror and bearing also the name Of the
dowagor empress.

SURE OF ACQUITTAl..
Nan Patterson Bases Confidence on Inv
Fact That Much New Evidence
for Her Is Ready.

sN1- 20 ta 81.
New York, March 27.-Nan Fatter-
son, who has been in the Tombs since
last June. charged with the murder OF
Caesar Young, the California book
maker, declared that II she is ever put
on trial again she will surely be ac-
Quilted. She said this. after a confer
ence with her lawyer, Daniel O'Reilly,
who has told her Of the new evidence
discovered. which in his opinion tends
to show that Young committed sui
eide.
According to O.Reilly the defense will
be able to prove these facts, not brought
out at the first trial:
That Caesar Young was the owneI
of a 32-caliber revolver.
9. That lie had such a revolver in
his possession on June 3, while at the
Sheepshead Bay race track. The al
legged murder occurred June q.
8. That Caesar Young on the after.
noon of June 3 took a pistol away from
his wife.
4. That Mrs. Young owned a S2-cali-
Der revolver.
5. That in Caesar Young's trunk,
SEM to England the morning of the
shooting, and afterward returned to
this country, were found a large nuln-
Der Of 32-caliber revolver cartridges.
Besides this. MI. O'Reilly says that
new witnesses have been found who
will swear that ]. Morgan Smith, Nan
Patterson and her sitter left the Sleeps.
! mead Bay race track in the very last
train, and after Young, his wife anc
his racing partner had left the track.

New Orleans, March 27.-One of the

NAVAL BATTLE MAY BE NEAR.
Reports even AiIege That There Has
Been an Encounter ALREADY.

ST. Petersburg, March 28.-Although
public interest in the war has suddenly
been transferred from the battlefield in
Manchuria to the Indian ocean by the
possibility of a great naval conflict be-
tween Rojestvensky and Togo, and de-
spite the reports that scouting vessels
have already been engaged near the ISL
and of Mauritius. the admiralty de-
clines to display any excitement.
Indeed, the tranquility manifested is
quite unnatural except on the theory
that pending the peace negotiations,
Rojestvensky has received orders to
keep out of the way of the japanese.
Although without direct advices, the
admiralty does not credit the report of
the meeting of the scouting vessels off
Mauritius, and the same thing holds
good in regard to the report of the sink
ing of the Russian battleships Sissoi
Veliky and Marin, which it is declared
was probably an arrant invention.
It can be asserted, however, that the
report that R~ojestvensky is awaiting
Nebogatoff's division to strengthen his
squadron is incorrect. The vessels of
Nebogatoff's division are not of the
same type or speed as Rojestvensky's,
and are only intended to trail behind as
a convoy to protect the fleet of col

STAMFORD FUNERAL.
Remains Of the California Woman Fin.
ally Committed to the Fam
lily Mausoleum.

Sta University, Cal, March 81
The body of the late Mrs. Jane Stan
ford, who recently died at Honolulu,
now rests in the Stanford mausoleum
between the bodies of her husband and
her son, near Stanford university. Be-
fore the final commitment of Mrs.
Stanford's body services were held in
the great memorial church erected by
her in loving memory of her husband
The church was filled with thousands
Of people from all over the state, who
came to a he'll tribute Of respect.
Promptly at 1870 p. m. the grand or
gan in the memorial church began tho
solemn tones Of the Chopin funeral
march, n at the same moment the
bronze doors at the main entrance
swung open to admit the small cortege
Of ~pallbearers and relatives escorting
the coffin.
Eight Of Stanford's most stalwart
athletes bore the body down the cen
trail aisle and placed it in front Of the
altar. In conformity with the often
expressed wish of Mrs. Stanford. no
or altar: only a few modest clusters
of white lilies and roses were used In
the church. Between 1000 and 5000
people followed the body from the
church to the mausoleum, and all but
200 or 300 Of these represented a close
interest in Mrs. Stanford and the uni
versity.
Fifteen hundred undergraduate stu
dents formed the main body Of tho
column. At the m%ausoleum. which
was covered with flowers. the last
rites were performed. These were
brief and simple.

MORE TERROR IS
REIGNINC IN RUSSIA.
Two Bombs Thrown at War
saw, Badly Injuring Chief
OF Police.
RESULT OF CONSPIRACY
First Explosion Occurred When Bomb
Was Thrown Into Police Station,
lnjurins Seven; Second, When
Baron Was in Carriage.

Warsaw, March ga bomb was
thrown into the carriage Of Baron Won
MolkeD, chief of police of Warsaw. II
was reported that the baron was Sc
verely wounded.
Warsaw, March 2~7.-According tc
latest information the attack on Baron
Won Noiken was the result of an elab-
crate conspiracy of the revolutionary
party.
Shortly before 8 o'clock last night
an elegantly dressed man went to the
police station at Praga. a large suburb
of Warsaw on the Vistula, n thew
a bomb into the court yard of the sta
ton, wounding seven persons. two OF
them dangerously. The man started
to run away, but was caught up with
by the captain of the station. He was
found to be a Jew. but his identity has
not yet been discovered.
A telephone message was imrnedl-
ately sent to Baron o Nolken at the
city hall, informing him of the outrage.
Baron Won Nolken, accompanied by a
policeman, took a carriage and imme-
diately started for Praga. When pass
ing the palace where the governor gem
eral resides a mar standing on the
pavement threw a bomb at the car
ciage. Baron Won Nolken, who was
sitting on the side nearest the assail-
ant, received the full charge of the
bomb, while his companion escaped
unhurt. The coachnan was throw
from the box and the carriage was
smashed.
Baron Won Nolken was removed to
the city hail and doctors We're sum-
moned, who found he had received in
juries on the head, neck, arm and leg,
which are believed to be serious.
Meanwhile the police official accom-
panying Baron Won Nolken saw the
bomb thrcwer fleeing, and pursued and
caught up with him, but the criminal
proved the stronger and tore himself
away.
Another policeman fired twice afte,
him without result.
Half an hour later a man was
found dead in Souwai street Whom
the police believe to be the bomt
thrower. The police think the mar
shot himself to escape arrest.
A girl who was passing the spo
when the bomb was thrown wa:
wounded by splinters and had to b,
taken to the hospital.
According to the theory of the pc
lice the revolutionists calculated OF
Baron Won Nolken going to Praga OF
learning of the explosion of the bonn
at the station there, and knew he mus
pass the castle, that being the onl,
road by which he could reach the onl.
bridge across the ViStula.
The affair caused great excitement
A popular rumor says the revolution
aries adopted his course OF lnforlnlni
the police that they have more bomb
besides those discovered in the Powon
ski cemetery Saturday.
Baron Won Nolken is very unpopu
lar. He is hated by the masses 0
the Polish population, who held hir
responsible for the ~sanguinary sup
preston of the disturbances here a
the end of January. He has be
here only a year, coming from S
Petersburg, where he was chief Of tn
mountain division of the police.

MAY LIMIT NAVAL ARMAMENT
One Condition Japan Would Impose OF.
Russia in Peace Terms.

Paris. March 2S.-It is stated in dlplo-
matte quarters that among conditions OF
peace Japan might ask would be a pledge
to build no more warshiDs for q term Of
years. A diplomatic official said such a
condition would be most effective against
Russia's cherished project of renewal of
hostilities under better conditions than at
present. Russia contemplated a huge
plan of naval rehabilitation.
Admiral Dubassof, Captain Clado and
other Russian naval authorities recent
.ly have taken the position that peace
was desirable until naval reconstruction
could be completed. This appears to have
stimulated Japan's diplomats to consider
means Of avoiding a peace equivalent to
Il truce during which Russia would forge
ran effective weapon. Therefore intima-
ton is given that limitation of Russian
naval armament may figure.
