GAGGED; HE FELL IN DITCH.
prunk's Horse Nearly browns OF
North Ninth Street.

Sitting in the bottom Of a ditch on
North Ninth street near Jerome street,
down which a small stream trinkled,
while he held his horses head above
the slowly rising water, Swan Ander-
son was found last night drunk and
covered with mud and soaking wet
by passer whom his shouts attracted
to the spot.
Anderson had driven across the
bridge at the junction Of Ninth ana
Jerome streets and what with his Jag
and the darkness he turned the horse
off the road and down into the ditch
which is several feet deep. The wagon
unset and the horse lost it's footing
and turned upon it's back, landing IN
the bottom, while the wagon tumbled
on top. The horses body damned the
flow of water which began rising
around the animal, which could not
get up, while it's owner supported Its
head above water and called loudly
for help. The police were notified and
the patrol brought Swanson to jail.
The horse could not be removed and
a team had to be taken to the spo:
before the animal could be dragged
out of it's resting place. Swanson was
fined in the police court this morning.

ployed IL an agreement exists with our

COLLEGE MEN AT INAUGURAL.
New York University Official Demurs
to Their Attendance.

NEW YORK, February Elm an ad-
dress to the undergraduates Chancellor
MacCracken of New York University to-
day expressed himself as opposed to the
plan to have college men in the inaugural
parade at Washington. After saying that
he. in common with other college presi-
dents, had received a letter from the in
augural committee requesting his aid in
the matter, the chancellor continued:
II have declined to take up this matter
because I think that this inaugural COM
mittee is doing very foolish thing. They
are attempting to take one-tenth of the
college students Of the country to Wash
ington to perform no higher mission than
march an hour or two along the avenue
and stand for an hour or two about the
Capitol building.
My first objection is that the whole
plan would convey to students a weak
and false notion regarding the best way
of evidencing patriotism. 1t asks nothing
from the brains of students. It asks for
their legs and feet This call to prove our
patriotism by marching is like a demand
that we prove our religion by ceremony
Another objection is that the plan is a
thoughtless breaking into the term of
college work with a demand for a three
or four days recess"

ASSURANCES TO CASSINI.
Diplomatic Circles Agog Over White
House Conference.

Because Sir Mortimer Durand the Brit
iSh ambassador. in response to an invitatfo
from the President accompanied MIR. Spring
Rice the first secretary of the British en-
bassy at st. Petersburg, to the White
House last night, for an informal chat.
the diplomatic corps was agog today over
the supposed significance" of the con-
ference.
An early caller at the State Depart
ment today was Mr.. Takhira, the Jap
anese minister. who spent some time with
Secretary Hay. The hesitancy with which
the minister replied to the question as to
whether peace proposals We're in the air
contributed to the suspicious already
afioat that this government was contem-
plating step toward intervention.
Later in the day came Count Cassini
the Russian ambassador. The ambassa-
dor received the most positive and cate
gorical assurances that this government
was not exchanging any ideas with any
government regarding the end of the war
and that the conference at the White
House was without political significance
The last caller was Sir Mortimer Durand
who saw Secretary Hay for the first time
Tor several days, owing to the latters
illness
1t can be stated very positively that how
ever wide the range of the converse ton
last night, and 1t naturally did include the
situation in Russia, the object of the visit
was entirely without political purpose or
result. Mr.. Spring Rice is an old friend Of
the President, having been attached to the
embassy here when Mr.. Roosevelt was
civil service commissioner. No diplomat in
Washington enjoys closer relations with
the President and Secretary Hay than Sir
Mortimer. The President and Secretary
would both like to see Mr.. Spring Rice
come to Washington again as first secre-
tary. The ambassador has been anxious to
nave Mr.. Spring Rice with him ever since
he came to Washington.
1t Is feared, however that in view of his
recent transfer to St Petersburg it will be
Impossible for Mr.. Spring Rice to come to
Washington. He has served with Sir Nor
timer in Persia. and Is warm friend of
the ambassador.
Mr.. Spring Rice expects to sail for home

Both anchors with all the chain attached

PITTsBURa MURDER MYSTERY,
Two Suspects Held for Woman's Brutal
Death-Theories.

PITTSBURG, Pa, February 6.-The mys-
terry surrounding the death of Mrs. John
H. kirkpatrick, whose badly mutilated re-
mains were found yesterday in the back
yard Of an unoccupied house in Jackson
street, Allegheny, is yet unsolved. The AL
legheny police authorities worked on the
case all night.
Assistant Superintendent John Glenn
stated that mass of detailed information
had been acquired. but he refused to give
out anything until after the verification Of
some of the evidence.
It is known that the police are working
on the theory that the assault was made
without murderous intent; that the woman
was still living when her assailant left her,
and that her death was due not to violence,
but to the long exposure to the Indictment
weather. In accordance with this view As
sistant Superintendent Glenn, accompanied
by a physician, visited the morgue during
the forenoon and made another examination
Of the woman's body and of her clothing.
The two suspects, Norman p Geyser and
Hugh Crawford, arrested last night, are
still held.
Crawford will probably be discharged
some time today. as the police it is said,
are satisfied that he was in no way con-
pected with the events that led up to the
Womarl's death.
At noon today a half brick, its Jagged
edges covered with hair and blood clots,
was found by the detectives lying in con-
gealed pool of blood Superintendent Glenn
stated that two of the murdered girls
teeth, evidently knocked from her Jaw by
blow, were compared with the wounds on
the hand of Geyser and found to CORE
spond identically. These wounds are deep
punctures. not cuts or scratches. The au-
thorities intimate that the guilty party Is
known. but will leave conclusive identifica-
ton to jury.
