TURNER'S UNFINISHED. D
Hitherto Unexhibited Paintings FinaI-
 ly to be Placed on View.

London, Feb. 2.-The Daily Tele- graph says; Twenty hitherto unex- hibited masterpieces in oil by Turner will be exposed to public view in the National Gallery next week. They are the so-called unfinished" pictures among the collection which Turner left to the National, and which have been condemned ever since to obscur- ity. Owing to the energy of Sir Charles Hclroyd (the keepe: of the national gallery of British art) they will now see the light. It will be found that instead of being unfinished pictures they were Turner's last works in the gospel of atmospheric beauty. They are astonishingly we'll preserved, au'l are valued at S1,25OsOOQs

THE CARRINGToN PUBLISHING co.
FIRE ON TRANSPORT MEAD.
Three Men Killed and Fifty-eight In-
 jured.

San Francisco, Feb. 1.-Three men were killed and f1fty-eight injured, mostly by suffocation, in a fire that damaged the United States transport Mead to the extent of $2,O00 as she lay at the Folsom street pier early to-day.
 For three hours after midnight the forward hold of the big troop ship was a suffocating furnace from which fire men were borne in an almost continu- ous stream. Relays of men promptly stepped forward to take the places of those who were carried out unconscious.
 Tons of high explosives were loaded in the after part of the vessel and the firemen worked with the possibility be- fore them that the flames would reach this compartment.
 Owing probably to the fact that an internal machine was found in the bunkers of the transport Thomas on her last voyage the rumor was cirou- lated that a plot had been laid to fire the Meade at sea, as she was to have departed for Manila to-day Major C.. A. Devol, chieI of the transport ser- vice, is Investigating this theory with great care. He is having the cargo taken from compartment No 2, where the fire was confined, with view of discovering the real cause of the dis aster.
 Dock Captain Dun gave 1t as his opinion that some of the officers had packed matches in their trunks and that these were ignited in loading.
 A thousand pieces of baggage were ruined. Trunks. boxes. barrels, wear ing apparel and household furnishings were water soaked or burned. One off ficer places the damage to personal of fects at $50,OOO. The vessel is not ser iously injured and will be ready to sail for Manila on Saturday.

JUST ONE FOR SEA LEVEL
CANAL COMMISSION ALMOST
 UNANIMOUS FOR LOCK.
Yesterday Spent in Putting in Formal Shape the Report to Secretary Taft Latter in Turn to Present It to Presi- dent With His Opinion--Roosevelt VIII Endorse the Documents and Send Them to Congress.

Washington, Feb. 1.-The isthmian canal commission with full member ship present, was to-day engaged in putting in formal shape the report which it is to make to Secretary Taft transmitting the majority and minority reports of the board of consulting en- gineers and recommending type of canal Without completing the report, however, the commission adjourned un- til tomorrow, when it is thought the document will be put in final shape.
 To-day the time was devoted to a consideration of the details of the draft of report which already has been drawn up, and in making such changes as were found necessary. It was stat ed that these changes are of a verbal nature and do not materially affect the original draft, which, there was reason to believe at the conclusion of the meeting last week, all the members of the commission, with one possible ex- ception, were agreed upon.
 It developed to-day, however, that one member of the commission is in favor of a sea-level canal, and it is in dicated that he may submit some mil nority views.
 The type of canal recommended in the draft of the report, as it now stands, calls for an eighty-flve-foot level,
 After Secretary Taft receives the re- port he will, in turn, forward it to the president with such comment or re- marks as he may desire to make. The president will endorse these documents and send fhem tn cnneress

IS CONFRONTED
WITH GRAVE PERIL

st. Petersburg, Sept. 18.-There is
every reason to believe that the gov
ernment is confronted with perils of
the very gravest character. The
peaceable attitude of the masses dur
ing the past few weeks had led to the
hope that Premier Stolypins policies
OF stern repression had been success
full and that so soon as the nihilistic
program of assassination had worn
itself out the government would find
itself in comparative security. Now
it appears that the recent absence OF
disturbances of popular character
have been misjudged. The powerful
revolutionary sentiment is still burn
ing fiercely among the people and is
by no means confined only to the
terrorists and extreme socialists. The
present attitude of quiet is believed
to be the forerunner of the tempest
which is about to break in final fury
of destruction that the revolutionary
leaders declare will carry the throne
to destruction. A revolutionist
whose life has been devoted to the
propaganda, who has escaped the
police on account of his exalted po-
sition, and because he has never actu-
ally participated in the planning or
execution of any attacks upon the
government, but who has preached for
years the necessity of constitutional
government in Russia, said: "Stoly-
pin has grown confident that he will
beat down the revolution. Before the
Gar left day or two ago upon his
cruise Stolypin assured him that the
fight was won. Stolypin has deter
mined that Russia can be governed
only by force, by oppression. by the
outrageous bureaucratic system. Two
months ago the premier did not be-
lieve this. Then his purpose was to
restore a semblance of order and
save the Cars dignity before calling
the elections for another duma. 1t
may have been the manning of mem
bers of his own family, the death of
his guests by the bomb thrown in
his own salon, but whatever has in
fluenced him, Stolypin is now reac-
tionary of the most vicious type. If
Stolypin succeeds, Russia will be
blacker with despotism than ever,
there will be no duma and the people,
broken on the rack of punishment ror
their deeds of the past year, will have
no spirit left to fight. Therefore, the
test is about to be made. All the
forces of revolution in Russia are
being girded for the final grand strug-
gle to crush horrible despotism. If
it succeeds Russia is free; If it fails,
Russia may yet be enslaved for an
other few decades. 1t will take long
for the people to recover if they lose
in the next few weeks"

new OUTBREAK
In Santo Domingo just
as the Cuban lnsurrec-
ton Appears to be Ad-
justed Harmoniously.

Washington, Sept. 18-Just as the Gu
ban insurrection appears to be on the
point of harmonious adjustment the
United states government is confron-
ted with a new outbreak in Santo
Domingo.
Commander Switzerland, the SEN
ior American naval officer in Domini-
can waters, reported to the navy
department by cable late this after
noon that an insurrection is about to
break out in Santo Domingo at any
time. He says that the government
has sent force of 400 men to Monte
Christi. The situation is declared to
be acute. He fears that an uprising
may take place. He requests that
the Dixie. which is now in Cuban
Domingo.
When the advisability OIL withdraw
ing any of the naval forces from Do
minican waters was discussed, upon
the crisis in the Cuban revolt, sug-
gestion was made that it might give
encouragement to the insurgents in
that island. 1t was finally decided,
however; that the Dominican govern
ment had matters we'll in hand. and
that no change was to be apprebend
with the present Heet of gunboats in
those waters
The official belief is that the agency
that has been back of the Cuban in
|surrection may be responsible for the
threatened uprising in Santo Domin-
go, or that the insurgents, not under
standing the completeness of prepara-
tion by the United States to move an
enormous fleet of battleships to land
an army on Cuban soil, imagine that
a revolt can be successfully conducted
under the Cuban operations
The navy department will at once
order proper naval strength to San
to Domingo. The temper of the
government will not brook any up
rising in or about Cuba just at pres

GRAND Jury
Will Soon Take Up the
case of James w. Cor
!. nelius, the SeIf-Confes-
sed Wife Murderer.

The case of James w. Cornelius
the self-confessed murderer of his
wife, will be taken directly before the
; grand jury now in session and he
will not be given a preliminary hear
ing before Mayor Turnbull and Police
Prosecutor Day.
Chief Smith and Officer Rifle went
to the Cornelius home Monday after
noon to examine the premises and
collect evidence but they secured moth
ing of Importance to throw any ad-
ditional light on the case,
County Prosecutor Upham sent for
the window weight with which the
crime was committed and has also
been furnished with a complete list OF
the witnesses. some of whom were
examined Tuesday and more will be
examined today
In the meantime Cornelius lies in
the county jail, apparently indiffer.
ent as to the outcome. He has re-
tanned j. w. Albaugh to look after
his case, and on his advice refuses
to talk, although he spoke freely
Monday
AS far as the case has gone, all the
evidence seems TO show conclusively
that the deed was premeditated, but
it is believed that, although he has
admitted his guilt, the prisoner will
refuse to plead guilty to murder in
the first degree, and that an attempt
will be made to secure a verdict of
manslaughter. But regardless of this
he will be given a trial which will
take place at once.
Cornelius was not told of his wife's
death and the first news he had of the
result of his work was on reau,ng
the account in the paper. He read
the article through without any out
ward emotion and refused to make
any comment.
FUNERAL OF THE VICTIM.
Short funeral services will be held
at the home of Mrs. Cornelius sister,
Mrs. John McAnaney, 81 North
Young street. at 9 o'clock this morn
ing, after which the remains will be
taken over the Pennsylvania to
Wooster accompanied by several rel
atives.
There her desire will be realized
when she will be lowered into the
grave beside her favorite son, whose
body the father had threatened to re-
move to a place unknown to her.
