cember 20, last, in which it was
stated that Mrs. Brouwer' estate was
valued at $4,000 and that Dr.. Brou-

as to the cause of Mrs. Brouwer's
death, basing his opinion on the
testimony thus far adduced at the

question and the court sustained the
objection. A hypothetical question,
covering points Of the testimony
probably will be submitted to him
today.

Chicago, Ill, Oct. 12. Yesterdays
game between Chicago teams of the
National and American league was
a battle royal between the pitchers,
and the Americans won three to
nothing.
Twenty-one batsmen struck out
and for 70 Of these credits goes to
Walsh In addition, he gave only one
pass and allowed but two hits. in the
first inning. Thereafter the Nation-
ais, until the ninth inning, never had
any sort of a chance to score.
According to the official count, 49,
$50 enthusiasts, encouraged by the
warmer weather, were present when
the game began. Pfeister, the left
handed pitcher, went into the box
of the Nationals His control at
first was good, but by no means per-
feet. He quickly steadied, however,
and pitched superbly until the sixth
inning. 1t was here, he went to
pieces and the game was lost. Tan

Somewhat disconnected, Pfiester al
lowed Walsh to walk and a moment
later hit Hahn In the nose, breaking
it, A doctor was called and O'Neil
went to first for Ha hn and finished
the game for him. The bases were
now full with nobody out: a
pandemonium of cheers from the
American league sympathizers broke
loose. Pfeister pulled himself to-
gether and there was q sigh Of re-
lief from the Nationals supporters
when Captain Jones fouled out to
King. Isben, one OF the teams best
batsmen, struck out for the third
time during the game. Then came
Robe, the substitute, to bat It was
this lighthaired young man whose
accidental presence BY reason OF
Davis illness in Tuesdays game,
brought victory to the Americans.
Again the fate Of the game depended
on him and again he did not fail.
He waited patiently for the ball
that suited him and swung with all
his strength The ball bounded like

BERLIN SOCIALISTS
 PEACEABLY DISPERSED
The Halls We're Emptied Before the
 Orators Got to Work.

Berlin, Jan. 21.-The socialist meet ings held here today passed off with complete quiet The halls, which were filled to overflowing were closed by the police half an hour before the speak ing commenced. Strong resolutions Of sympathy with the Russian revolution ists were passed and protests against the present tripartite suffrage system in Prussia were adopted
 The police had taken extraordinary precautions to prevent breaches of the peace. Extra forces of policemen oc- cupied rooms adjacent to the halls where the meetings were held and were in readiness to act on a moments mo- tice. They had also prohibited access to the galleries of the halls for the reason that in case of an outbreak it would be difficult to dislodge the riot CTS who would have the advantage of firing on the police from above.
 The speakers urged the crowds to re- tire from the halls in an orderly man ner and to go quietly to their homes This advice was obeyed to the letter. There was no attempt made at street demonstrations. Dispatches from all large towns report that demonstra- tions were orderly.

MIL WAUKEE'S MAYOR
 STIRS UP TUCSON
His DenunCiation in 4 Church Last
 Night of Senator LaFOIlete.

Tucson, Jan. 21.-(SpeciaD- Mayor Rose of Milwaukee created a sensation tonight in the Congregational church by his sever arraignment of United States Senator LaFollette. Mayor Rose was delivering a lecture on the subject of Civic Duty in the place of Col William Herring, who, however, had been detained at Phoenix on legal business. Before Mayor Rose had pro- ceeded far in his address he turned upon LaFollette, and though he did not mention his name, referred to him in the most unmistakable terms. He denounced him for his hypocrisy under the guise of a reformer and described the machine, which the speaker said he had seen the governor of a great state build up for the furthering of his insane ambition" The speaker charg- ed La Toilette with the basest ingrati- tude.
 The denunciation produced a great sensation by reason of the place in which it was made.

If Its Advocates Persist in Bringing It In
 on Wednesday
The Insurgents Express Confidence in their Superior Strength-The Other Side Says That the Bill Will Pass-Other Congressional Business.

Washington, Jan. 21.-Interest in congress this week will largely center in the statehood bill, which will come before the house. When the bill comes in on Wednesday, according to the present program, the very first action will be a test of strength between the so-called insurgents and the stalwarts,
 This test will be the vote on the rule which will accompany the bill for the purpose of preventing any amend- ments being made to it. The "iIsur- gents" wane this rule defeated and predict that they have votes enough, Ombined with the 137 democrats in the house, to do it. The stalwarts make just as strong assertions to the contrary.
 If the rule is defeated it is the plan of the opponents of the measure to leave out altogether the provision for statehood for Arizona and New Mexico or to provide that the question of statehood for these two territories shall be left. with q referendum pro vision, to be settled by the vote of the citizens thereof separately.
 Chairman Hamilton, of the commit tee on territories, who will have charge of the statehood bill on the floor. says that it will take at least two days to reach a conclusion in the

ALTA AVALANCHE'S
 VICTIMS FOUND
The Last of the Bodies Recovered
 From the Debris.

Salt Lake City, Jan. 21.-The last of the six bodies buried by the snowslide at Alta on Friday night was recovered this afternoon. Since communication with the mining camp has been re- stored it has been learned that the avalanche came about midnight. It swept half a mile before striking the boarding house and adjoining saloon in which the men were sleeping. Both buildings were wrecked and the former completely hidden from view.
 Three of five men sleeping in the saloon managed to crawl from under the debris and snow and. attired only in their night clothing, worked for hours in an effort to reach their com panions. Their feet were badly frozen. At seven o'clock Saturday morning fff- ty men were at work seeking the bodies but not until noon was the first corpse recovered. The work Of rescue continued without cessation until to- day. The men who lost their lives in the boarding house are: Albert Ben nett, George CIaybourne, John Brick son, John Gray.
 Those killed in the saloon were: Jerry Murphy, Wm. Powell.
 Gray was a stranger from California aud was looking for work. The other men came from various parts of Utah and were employed at Alta.

A STORY OF HAZIN6
 TOLD BY THE STAR
There Was Commotion For Awhile in
 University Circles.

Tucson. Jan .-CSpeeiaD-An ar ticle in the Star this morning under the headlines Played with a rope and shot in the head" caused a great deal of excitement in university circles for a time The article purported in the most circumstanJial terms 10 describe the hazing of a Mexican student of tho university by American students. and said further that the victim had been a subject of Mexico and the son Of a judge at Cananea. the Mexican consul at this point, Arturo Elias. has taken the matter up to prevent interuationai complications.
 Mir Elias later in the day sent a statement to President Babcock of the university denOuncing the story as false. It was later learned that some time ago the Mexican student for vI- Olation of the rules had been subject ed to a light punishment and that he had made complaint to his father. vlo replied that he must harbor no re- venge against the American students. but must be their friend and since he was being educated in America he must fall into American ways

Washington. Jan. 21.-A -Sar-n wave which scores the highest record in temperature since 1890 prevailed today throughout the region between the Mississippi valley and the Atlantic coast. Its crest was in Ohio, where the temperatures as reported to the weather bureau ranged from 70 to n degrees. South of the Ohio river it was less warm because of heavy rains and thundershnwers
 In Washingt on today the weather was springlil1e with a maximum tenn perature of 63 degrees.
 A cold wave which developed in the west is rapidly following the warm wave and the forecasts say it will reach the Atlantic coasc Monday night.

To- night the weather continues warm, d vapor typical of early spring evenings, hanging oyer the water front.
 The warmth and sunshine of the day brought to Central Park, to Riverside Drive and other promenades thousands of people.

THE EVENTS
 OF THE WEEK
Caracas and AIgeCirdS
 Divide Interest
The End of the British Elections Which Have Been so OVerwheim- ing as to Be Tame,

New York, Jan. Eff France makes a decisive move in retaliation for Ven ezuelas treatment of her representa- tive, Caracas this week will be a world center. Venezuela under the Castro regime has been an interesting problem, but the Monroe doctrine, all though necessarily involved in 1t, is so thoroughly understood by all Euro pean countries that the state depart ment anticipates no upward action on the part of France
 The most recent O-Venezulean trouble began with the expulsion of M. Brun, representative of the French ca ble company at Caracas, and Charge d Affairs Taigny's protest against this action. Venezuela held that its posi- ton was correct and refused to treat further with the French government through Taigny.
 There then followed a long period during which. owing to the good offices of United StatesMinister Russell, an open rupture was avoided. President Castro by his dilatory tactics, angered the French government and a fleet was sent to Martinique. However this in- dication of Frances determination to push the matter did not have the de- sired effect. Then followed NJ. Taig- ny's action in boarding the steamer Martinique to obtain despatches and the refusal by the Venezulean author ities to permit him to return ashore. Although technically this was not q fOrcible expulsion. it amounted to an act of hostility and M. AIaubourquet, the charge d'afairs of Venezuela, was expelled from French territory. The French warships are now off the Ven ezu1ean coast and a naval demonstra- ton is anticipated.
 From the interest point of view, AL geciras will divide with Venezuela. Al the beginning of the Moroccan confer ence. the delegates- so uniformly ex- pressed themselves as in favor of con- servative action that much was hoped for from the outcome of negotiations. However, according to later advices, extreme caution and lack of confidence have begun to destroy this favorable atmosphere. and a feeling Of unrest is said to exist among the delegates of the less interested powers, who believe that trouble is in sight. The first point at issue is that of contraband arms after which will be considered the reform of the finances of Morocco. so that the question of the organization of the Morocco police, which involves the vital issue between France and Germany. has been postponed for some time.
 The end of the week will see the close Of the general elections Tn Great Britain, but the liberal victory has | been so overwhelming as to take much i interest from the contest. Yet, in an
 other sense. it adds an unprecedented
 interest to the developments. which are sure to come with the opening of par l liament.

A WHITE HOUSE CONFERENCE
Regarding the Affairs of New York
 State.

Washington. D. C., Jan. 21.-Presi- dent Roosevelt had a conference at the White House tonight with former Lieutenant Governor Woodruff and four republican congressman from Brooklyn, mainly with reference to the consideration of the appointment to succeed John Sharkey, as collector of the port. There. is some talk of a chairman of a republican state com mittee in successorship to B. B. Odell, but this was rather general in charac- ter. MT. Woodruff later took occasion to say he was not a candidate for the chairmanship. It would be possible, though for him to adjust his duties so as to take up the burden of the work.
 The president, he said. did not in tend to interfere in the matter.

 The railroad rate bill which is to fol- low statehood legislation will not be presented for consideration until the week following,
 The consideration of the urgent de- ficiency appropriation bill, which has been under consideration for the last two days of the past week, will be re- sumed.

 Senator Gallinger. in charge of the merchant marine bill. will prefer his request tomorrow for the naming of a day for q vote on that bill, consentins to any day, however remote. within reason, that the senate may designate. There will be objection to this request. and the discussion will continue when ever the senators are disposed to take it up.
 The pure food bill will continue to be discussed by Messrs. Hepburn, Me Cumber, Lodge. Spooner and others.
 The urgent deficiency bill will reach the senate early in the week, and it Is expected that it will be reported hack from the committee within a few days. When reported, it will receive early consideration to the exclusion of nther measures.
 Tine senate is awaiting with anxiety the result of the deliberations Of the committee on interstate commerce on the rate question, but there is no eX- pectation of an immediate report. The committee on territories also will pro ceed with it's work on the statehood bill, as will the committee on the Philippine tariff bill and the isthmian canal commission on the Panama cs,- nal investigation.
 There is a probability of some dis cussion of the canal question in the senate in advance of the report Of the committee. Senator Tillman has in timated a desire to take up that sub ject and the deficiency appropriation bill will afford him an opportunity.
