warmly welcomed by the perfect and the
British consul. The king Immediately
went aboard the royal yacht, the Vic
toria and Albert, where Queen Alexan-
dra aud the other members of the royal

tended to spend two days in Paris Oh
his return from his cruise.

Fight IND. A. II. Warns Up.

Things are warming up for the cam
paign for the next president general of
the Daughters Of the American Revolu-
ton. At present there are but three
candidates who will strive for the honor.
These are Mrs. Sternberg, wife Of the
former Surgeon General of the army,
who has the support of Mrs. Fairbanks,
the retiring president-general, and Of the
entire National Board; Mrs. Charles
Warren Lippitt, wife of the former gov
ernor of Rhode Island, who represents
the faction which is opposed to the cen
tralizatien of power IN the National
Board, and Mrs. Donald Mclean, who
stands for individualism and chapter
rights The election of Mrs. Sternberg
is almost conceded, if Mrs. Lippitt
can be prevailed on to withdraw irora
the race. The latter has arrived in
Washington to take part in the three
important meetings. The first is that Of
WAYS and means, of whi,h Mrs. Stern
berg is chairman, and which must raise
funds to see the Continental Congress
through. The funds have been exhaust
ed in preparing the basement of Cont
mental Hall for the congress. The usual
monthly meeting of the National Board
and the regular meetingof the Continen-
tal Hall Committee will also be held. But
the real business is TO get the opponents
of the National Board into line.
Mrs. Mclean is alleged to be opposed
to the Continental Hall movement, but
her chapter has been generous in its sup
port. Mrs. Sternberg claims the sup
port at % chapter regents, and Mrs. Nc
Lean claims 26, but neither side allows
the claims of the other aud the contest
promises to be unprecedented in its Bit
terness.

A TERRIBLE CRIME.

Unexpected disclosures yesterday
show that what was originally thought
to he young wiie's attempt at suicide
was in reality a horrible double crime
by brutal negro Rendered speechless
by knife cut extending from ear TO
ear, Mrs. Bessie Brandow, by signs,
told the police yesterday story of an
outrage attempted upon her by negro,
who, thwarted in his purpose, had tried
to cover up his crime with murder.
The victim is in the Pennsylvania Hos
pital and her death from the terrible
knife thrust is believed to be a question
of only few hours.
The double crime was committed at
the woman's home in the rear of No.
S16 Kater street, on Monday morning.
1t was FIRST supposed that Mrs. Bran
dow had attempted suicide, but Detec-
tives Bond and Gallagher, who had beer
assigned by Captain Donaghy to make an
investigation, were not satisfied with
this explanation. The woman has been
Unconscious nearly all the time since she
was taken to the hospital and could rend-
er the police no help in their investiga-
ton until last night, when she rallied
for a short time
She answered the questions put to her
by Clerk Mofit, of the Central Police
Court, by holding up her fingers or by
nodding her head, and gradually the
story Of the awful crime was unfolded.
When she had concluded the story De-
tectives Bond and Gallagher, with Spe-
cial Policeman Ryan, Of the Second dis
.rict, went to a house on Bainbridge
street, above Sth, and arrested Charles
Williams, the negro vi I'm Mrs. Brandon
accuses of the crime.
The prisoner, with another oolored
man, was taken TO the bedsidse of the
dying woman. who identified him as her
assailsnt. From the hospital Williams
was taken to the City Hall and locked
up. He declares he is innocent OF the
charges made by the woman Phila-
delphia Record.
Philadelphia, April Mrs. Bessie
BRANDON, aged 81, who was murderously
assaulted by Charles Williams, colored,
is now dying in the Pennsylvania Hos
pital. Since she was admitted to the
hospital, it has been necessary TO feed
the woman through the nose BY means
of a tube. The double crime was COM
mltted at the woman's home on Monday
morning. 1t was first supposed that
Mrs BrandOw had attempted suicide,
fearing the burdens of motherhood, as
she had frequently threatened to do. The
negro claims he can prove an alibi. Be-
sides the attempt on her life, by cutting
her throat, Mrs. Brandow makes other
equally as serious charges against VIII,
lams.

David PhilIips, Death.

Lynn, Mass, April An autopsy
on the body of David Phillips, the mil
lionaire president of the Grand National
Bank of Marblehesd, who was found
dead in the ocean near his home at
Phillips Beach, late yesterday, was held
today. Aside from the scratches on the
face and head, which are attributed to
the rocks in the water, no marks of yio-
lence were found aud medical examiners
found that death was caused BY drown
ing. This sets at rest the theory of foul
play and no doubt now exists in the
minds of the police that Mr.. Phillips
committed suicide. AT Mr.. Phillips
home today it was said that there was
no known cause for his suicide. The
members of the family do not accept the
suicide theory and believe that he did
not voluntarily end his life.
