BOSTON DRESS SUIT CASE
MYSTERY SOLVED At LAST
Murdered Girl Was Member Of a The.
atricaI Company, and Man to
Whom She Was Engaged Is
Charged With Crime.

Boston.-That the dismembered body
found in a suit case at Winthrop on
September Fl, is that of Susan Geary,
of Cambridge, is the belief of the girls
family and friends, and of the Boston
police department.
Miss Geary, who was the daughter
of Mr. and Mrs. J. D. Geary, was a
chorus girl of the shepherd King"
company and was known on the stage
as Ethel Durrell. She was 81 years of
age. Mrs. Geary on Sunday identified
three rings taken from the right hand
found in the second dress suit case
picked up near the new Charleston
bridge on Friday last, as those worn
by her daughter when she absented
herself from the theatrical company
on September II.
Confirmation of Miss Geary's disap-
pearance from the company came from
Morris Nathan, secretary of the COM
pany, and to whom Miss Geary was en-
gagged. After long and searching ex-
animation at police headquarters, he
was held on charge of numbering his
sweetheart, Miss Susan Geary, the vic
tim of the Winthrop suit case mystery.

TOOK REFUGE IN VAULT.
Crazed Murderer Holds Posse at Bay
for Hours.

Bloomington, Ill.-Mayor Charles
Nickel, of Chenoa, was shot and killed
Saturday afternoon in the Bank of
Chenoa; Hugh Jones, brick mason,
was also shot and killed, and two
passersby were shot and slightly
wounded by William Leduc, farmer
who lives near Chenoa.
After the shooting, Leduc dragged
the body of Jones into vault and
stationed himself beside it, for hours
holding hundreds of people at bay
who attempted his capture, several
hundred shots being exchanged. Final
ly he surrendered and is in Jail.
Nickel married sister of Leduc.
Leduc was married some years ago.
It is alleged that he had domestic
troubles, which Nickel adjusted, but
Leduc always imagined Nickel had
not acted fairly in the matter. For
some time neighbors had said that
Leduc had acted queerly, and it is
supposed Saturdays crime resulted
from Leduc brooding over his wrongs.

END OF AUTOCRACY
IN RUSSIAN EMPIRE

Free Speech, Free Press and a Consti.
tuition Assured the People.
st. Petersburg.-Ast the result of a
series of special ministerial councils
under the presidency of Count White,
held to adopt measures to deal with
the internal situation, the new ma
tional assembly law and laws grant
ing practical freedom of the press and
Of speech were adopted, and a meet,
ing will be promulgated forthwith,
Upon the pre-emptory demand Of
Prince Hilkoff, the minister of rail
roads, the budget covering the re-
enumeration of railroad employees will
be revised to meet the promises made
last spring. Unless this was done, the
prince announced. he would resign.
Interesting details are being learned
of Count Whites interview with the
car last week. The emperor asked
Count White to speak frankly, and
after listening to the statesman's ex-
position of the situation he appeared
to be utterly unnerved by the deplor-
able state of affairs and cried out that
he was weary of the struggle and felt
like leaving all and fleeing to Darn
stadt, hence probably the origin Of
the report that the emperor was 60
ing abroad.
Count Witte, however, told the en-
peror that in his opinion not even a
republic could now save Russia from
anarchy. 1t was the emperor's duty
to the people and the country to face
the situation by meeting the classes
namely, to abrogate the autocratic
power and grant constitution by
creating a ministry, responsible alike
to the crown and to the representa-
tives of the nation. The emperor
finally accepted, requesting Count
Witte to draft a project.

RUSSIAN SITUATION ALARMING
Dispatch Received from American lie
cation Asking for instruction.

cation Asking for Instruction.
Washington.-The condition of af.
fairs in Russia formed the basis of a
dispatch received at the state depart
ment from Spencer Eddy, the Ameri
can charge at st. Petersburg, who SAID
the situation was very alarming. The
dispatch was the subject of a long
conference between Secretary Root
who returned to the city from New
York early Saturday evening, and Mr.
Bacon, the first assistant secretary
who has been acting as the head of the
state department during Mr.. Roots alb
sencey Mr.. Eddy asked the depart
mention further instructions to meet
any eventualities which might arise
out of the condition of affairs as they
now exist in st. Petersburg, and late
Saturday evening these were eabled
to him. One feature of these covers
the question of protection Of Ameri
cans residing in ST. Petersburg in case
of a general uprising which might en-
danger their lives. In the event of an
outbreak they will be accorded the
protection of the American legation
until further arrangements can be
made for their accommodation, if such
be found necessary. 1t is not believed
by the state department officials that
there is any great number of Ameri
cans now in st. Petersburg, as most
of the tourists have left the country in
anticipation of the winter season
Such as may be in the interior it is
thought are not in any danger.

Their Powder Dry and Their
Swords Whetted."

Berlin.-Recent events apparently
have turned the thoughts of Emperor
William toward the probability OF
Germany soon becoming involved in
war. His speeches at Dresden on
Wednesday and in Berlin on Thurs
day contained pointed references to
the probability of war and the neces-
sity of being ready for it, Addressing
the officers of a Saxon Grenadier regi-
ment at Dresden, the emperor said:
1--WE live in a time when every
young German capable of bearing
arms must be ready to give himself to
the fatherland."
At banquet given in his honor in
the Dresden Schloss Thursday even
ing, the emperor, replying to the
kings toast to his health, said:
eff the German empire continues to
prosper, then we can calmly, with
raised visor and with the courage Of
free German men, confront any one
who should venture to cross our path
or to disturb us in the promotion OF
our reasonable interests"
After unwilling the statue of Field
Marshal Won Moltke Thursday, his ma.
jesty addressed the highest army Of
ficers who were assembled around
him at dinner at the Schloss, say.
