to Fez, headed by DR.. Rosen, the Ger

Tangier Sept 81, in advance of the

Buffalo, N. Y, Sept. 25.-The day
preceding the Democratic state con-

STRANGE STORY OF MURDER.
Nurse Girl Kills. Her Charge Rather
Than Face Separation.

EIpfts- :
New York, Sept. 25.-A strange
story Of murder, prompted by an af-
lection that could not bear separation,
has been revealed near Brewster, N.
Y, through the confession of Jennie
Burch, an Indian nurse girl, who is
but fourteen years of age: 1t appears
that a series Of ~incendiary fires have
occurred at Cowles Corner, twelve
miles from Brewster, and suspicion
fell On the Indian girl. She repealed
the suspicious vigorously. Last Fri
day the girls infant charge, Wilbur
Winship, two and a half years of age
was suddenly stricken with Illness
and soon died. Investigation devel-
oped that the child had been given a
poisoned peach. The nurse girl was
suspected, but the crime seemed in
applicable. as the girl was known to
be deeply attached to the child.
Sunday, just before the child's bur.
ial, the crime was explained The girl
was brought into the room where the
body Of the little one lay. When she
saw the child she threw herself on the
coffin and cried: 81 killed him! l
poisoned him." 81, 41s5, ~.
Later when she grew ealmer she adj
mitted that acting under an uncontroll-
able impulse she had set one or the
incendtary fires. She knew she was
suspected and thinking she would have
to die for the crime she poisoned the
little boy, whom she loved, so that he
might go with her. HI

Event DULY CELEBRATED.
Steamboat Traffic on the Missouri
~ $50. @ River Resumed. ysss 80

Kansas City, Sept. 25.-With 4 the
blowing of whistles, the changing Of
bells and the glad acclaims of thou
sands OF persons who had gathered at
the river shore, the renewal of steam
boat traffic on the Missouri river after
a lapse of more than a decade was
celebrated when the steamer Lora,
laden with freight from st. Louis
locked at the wharf in this city.
Every, local craft Of any pretension
went several miles, down the river to
act as an escort for the Lora and the.
appearance of the feet, with the
freighter in the lead, was the signal
for one Of the most genuine outbursts
of enthusiasm ever occasioned by any,
event in commercial life Of this city.
The successful trip of the Lora under
the most unfavorable circumstances,
the river being exceptionally low ana
Its channel unexplored for several
years, proved conclusiyely that the
Missouri is a snavigable stream.
The movement to inaugurate a boat
line on the Missouri river originated
in this city four months ago and grew
out of the fight Of Kansas City mer-
chants for reduced freight rates. AL
of the commercial and civic bodies of
this city have aided in the develop
ment Of the plan and the towns be-
tween here and St. Louis have given
their hearty cooperation. Many of
these towns have no railroad facilities
and the new boat line will afford them
their only means Of transportation.
Regular traffic will be instituted on
the river between here and St. Louis
just as soon as suitable boats can be
obtained ~ =. -: - - :

tenn of efficiency as applied to govern

at any time to give an exact state

a matter of exact knowledge. He de-
clares that the new system win not
impose any extra work on the print

in the Office, but on the contrary viii
secure to them proper credit for the

being more or less radical over the
old system Mr. Stillings said that he

Havana, Sept 25.--The first meet
ing of the American mediators with
the insurgents committee was again
postponed on account of the illness of
;Pelayo Garcia, one of the conspiracy
prisoners, who had been added to the
committee. Much depends on the at
titude of the committee at the first
conference. -<++
/ Heavy rains are prevailing and the
insurgents are inclined to seek the
benefit of the armistice during the
continuance Of the peace negotiations.
Heretofore there was merely verbal
agreement without any definite terms,
but document was prepared and TAX
en- into the camps of Generals Guerra
and Castillo and these chiefs attached
their signatures to it. The document
was then signed by Acting Secretary
Of the Interior Montelvo on behalf Of
the government.
Alarming reports of lack of disci-
pine in the insurgent camps have
been brought to Secretary of War Taft
and Assistant Secretary of State Ba-
con. Coming at time when the pros
poets of peace looked the brightest

that free Cuba demands it. The fact
is that these men prefer fighting I'M

Ridiculous as it seems there are per-
sistent run.ors that the insurgents in
tend harm to the American commits
sioners in the event of a peace COM
pact being made on terms unsatisfac-
| tory to them. In, some Of the camps
there is much characterization, and
mutterings against the leaders are
heard because they have undertaken
to make peace with the government
through the Americans. The: men in
the field believe that they had the
government beaten and that the Amer
leans are now trying to steal their
glory. This condition of affairs is in
some quarters regarded as menacing
the permanently of any agreement
which may be made. The insurgents
are talking freely and threaten if hos
tilities end to burn Marianao and Pun
ia Bravo, break into small bands and
seek safety in the mountains. Small
bands Of bandits not associated with
either army have taken advantage of
the truce and are pillaging in the
south and west parts Of Havana prov
ince, stealing what they want and de-
stroying other property.

Frantic men, with faces alternately
flushing and paling in the Intensity Of
their passion, set upon the blacks
wherever they could be found.
Few of the mob appeared to be
armed in the early stages Of the out
break, but the men seized upon stones,
sticks and brickbats and these they
either hurled at the negroes or used
to beat them mercilesslys whenever
they could be got within reach.
Men and women were treated alike
by the maddened whites. They were
dragged into the streets and beaten;
kicks were showered upon them, re

shouts and cries of the pursuers
drowned out all sounds of pain.
